[00:02] <ubuntu> anyone there?
[03:02] <Fudge> hi
[03:05] <Fudge> hi, can anyone tell me how to stop xfce4-panel from loading?
[03:05] <Fudge> i wish to use gnome-panel so the panels accessible
[06:00] <raevol> hey how do i set up a folder to sync on ubuntu one? in xubuntu :[
[08:49] <JoeR1> Is anyone awake in here?
[08:49] <Sysi> pop a question and see
[08:50] <JoeR1> I don't need help someone else does but I am compiling a new kernel, I just wanted to make sure someone was here before sending him
[08:53] <ziga_> hello
[08:57] <JoeR1> ask you question here, I have to use the facilities
[08:57] <ziga_> ok
[08:59] <ziga_> I am using latest xubuntu installed from live_cd and my sound stopped working after a period of time
[08:59] <ziga_> there is no taskbar sound icon, what can i do?
[09:00] <well_laid_lawn> I'd right click the panel and add it and see what it comes up with
[09:06] <ziga_> oh it is working lol
[09:06] <ziga_> thx :D
[09:06] <ziga_> i am sorry :D
[09:06] <JoeR1> congrats
[09:07] <jbrouhard> that's gotta be the quickest support ever.
[09:13] <well_laid_lawn> the important bit is if it comes up again next boot...
[09:35] <burn> hi, pidgin is auto starting, how can I disable that please?
[09:36] <well_laid_lawn> you've probably saved a session and are booting into it each time - next login try a new session
[09:36] <burn> good id!
[09:38] <knome> !session
[09:39] <knome> ^ just wrote that for yer pleasure :)
[09:58] <burn> thx knome :D
[09:59] <Sysi> knome: is it wise to have unicode on factoids?
[09:59] <knome> Sysi, don't they all do
[10:01] <Sysi> well, that is undertandable propably even if you have ??s instead of »
[10:06] <Fudge> any repos so i can get xfce410
[10:07] <Sysi> not official, you can search for PPA:s
[10:11] <Fudge> guess there isnt any alpha beta rc's of xubuntu with it?
[10:12] <knome> !session > Sysi
[10:12] <knome> better?
[10:17] <Fudge> looks like its in alpha2
[10:17] <Sysi> knome: propably, for some situations
[10:32] <knome> Sysi, if there is any other factoids you think need revisiting, just PM me.
[10:33] <Sysi> okay
[17:44] <n2diy> Fudge, don't know how to stop it from loading, but killall xfce4-panel will remove it, and xfce4-panel will start it up again.
[17:49] <n2diy> I think I've screwed up my system by transferring files between this box and my backup box. My system sounds are messed up, and I think it is because this box is loading modules that the test box is using? Is there a way to test this by editing a file somewhere?
[20:23] <foresto> In Firefox , is anyone able to drag the address bar icon to a Thunar folder and have it create a web shortcut (desktop file)?  It's supposed to work, but fails for me using Firefox 5.0 and Thunar 1.2.1.
[20:29] <beardygnome> doing that just saves the page for me
[20:29] <beardygnome> foresto: where did you see that it was supposed to work?
[20:31] <foresto> I've forgotten where I first read about it. (I've been using that feature for years, until recent software upgrades broke it.)  I can go look for a reference, I suppose.
[20:32] <beardygnome> no worries, i don't use firefox that much myself, so was just interested
[20:33] <foresto> Here's one reference in the Firefox docs:  http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Creating%20a%20desktop%20shortcut%20to%20a%20web%20page
[20:37] <beardygnome> have you successfully done this since xfce moved to 4.8?
[20:37] <beardygnome> (i'm wondering whether it's ff or thunar that's changed)
[20:39] <ChristopherNG> Hello
[20:42] <foresto> @beardygnome: I have not.  I'm not sure whether it's Firefox or Thunar that changed.
[22:17] <ChristopherNG> Wow! no one has reported any problems for almost 2 hours
[22:50] <charlie-tca> Those with the issues can't stay connected today ;)
[22:52] <ChristopherNG> charlie-tca: lol
[22:52] <ChristopherNG> How are you today anyway?
[22:53] <charlie-tca> I am great!
[22:53] <charlie-tca> And you?
[22:55] <ChristopherNG> Yeah good, I think im coming down with OCD or becoming a Hypercondriac
[22:56] <ChristopherNG> I read online that the HIV/AIDS can stay in the system for 10 years before any symptoms so im going to go get test for it and diabetes on thursday.
[22:57] <charlie-tca> Tests are good. It helps alleviate future issues
[22:57] <ChristopherNG> Yeah thats true, Just not really slept for a few nights properly been worried sick.
[23:00] <mayko> I've been trying all day to get an external microphone to work on my xu10.10 system; it is now further complicated in that alsamixer does not seem to run in the terminal and soundrecorder is no longer functioning. Any ideas?
[23:00] <charlie-tca> Best advice I ever got, I read in a book by Robert Schuller, "If you worry a lot about something, and it happens, worry did not stop it. If it doesn't happen, you made yourself suffer a lot of agony for nothing."
[23:01] <charlie-tca> restarted yet, mayko?
[23:01] <ChristopherNG> mayko: Your mic is usb or one with an audio jack?
[23:01] <charlie-tca> You can try installing pavucontrol, which might be able to turn that on through pulse audio
[23:02] <mayko> i've restarted, yes; the mic is an audio jack
[23:02] <ChristopherNG> mayko: Really obvious but it happens make sure you have raised the microphone volume in the sound preferences otherwise the people on the other side wont be able to hear you.
[23:02] <ChristopherNG> Its a common mistake
[23:03] <mayko> When I go to the mixer, there are sliders for Capture, but none for a microphone - the same was true in alsa in the terminal before it disappeared
[23:03] <mayko> (the captures are all the way up too)
[23:04] <mayko> trying pavucontrol
[23:05] <mayko> I am interested in pavucontrol's Input Dev. tab, yes?
[23:11] <mayko> tryna nother restart brb :D
[23:17] <mayko> hrm i followed this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1101063&page=2  and now sound recorder appears to work again but still nothing from the mic :(
