[00:45] <mattyfdg> who here loves pusy
[00:54] <well_laid_lawn> I like good spelling
[01:09] <Xfiles> moi aussi
[01:10] <Xfiles> oops english only
[01:50] <MetaCosm> Hmph, I been googling a bit -- anyone have a line on problems with nm-applet on x64
[04:58] <chuckles> i am trying to install xbuntu, but when i make a live usb then boot to it, all i get is a black screen with a cursor flashing, this occurs on my asus eee pc 1015 pem and i get the same thing on an old dell inspiron 1150
[04:58] <chuckles> can anyone help?
[04:58] <moylan> what software are you using to make the boot usb?
[05:03] <chuckles> i tried unetbootin
[05:03] <chuckles> and linux live usb creator
[05:04] <moylan> one problem i found was that if the usb drive wasn't formatted correctly it wouldn't boot.
[05:04] <chuckles> i formatted it to fat 32
[05:04] <chuckles> the computer sees it fine, but it won't boot at all
[05:06] <moylan> sounds like the problem i had.  i cheated and just formatted it different formats on a windows system till unetbootin writing the image worked again.
[05:06] <moylan> also you have made sure the bios will allow boot from usb?
[05:08] <chuckles> yep, i set both computers i tried to boot from usb, and there have been others who have put ubuntu onto the asus 1015pem
[05:09] <chuckles> i am pretty eager to try ubuntu, never tried a linux distro before, but man, this is really frustrating
[05:10] <moylan> installing linux used to be the hardest thing.  now i find it easier than installing windows.  that doesn't help you right now though.  still thinking...
[05:11] <lighta> did you tryed with lio ?
[05:11] <lighta> is it the good name let me check
[05:11] <chuckles> what is lio?
[05:11] <lighta> yeah I alway had issue with unetbotin too so it's on my black list now !
[05:11] <lighta> like usb creaot
[05:12] <lighta> oups usb creator*
[05:12] <chuckles> i tried lili usb creator
[05:12] <moylan> what os is currently on the machines?
[05:12] <chuckles> same result
[05:12] <lighta> ah lilo
[05:12] <lighta> ye I remenber was 4 letter
[05:12] <chuckles> dell has xp, asus has windows 7 starter
[05:12] <lighta> like most computer :(
[05:13] <chuckles> yeah, would like to find a better alternative, and when i read how you could try distros without installing them that seemed ideal
[05:13] <chuckles> except i can't get em to boot lol
[05:14] <lighta> oh ? well let me found lilo for you
[05:14] <lighta> what did u try already again ? usb creator and unetbootin ?
[05:15] <lighta> oh did they change name ?
[05:15] <lighta> http://www.linuxliveusb.com/
[05:15] <chuckles> usb creator didn't work at all for me, (the one that came packaged with ubuntu 11.04) i tried unetbootin
[05:15] <chuckles> and linux live usb creator'
[05:16] <chuckles> currently trying a different usb drive that my friend just gave me
[05:16] <lighta> ah yeah I had this issue too
[05:16] <chuckles> any known issues with kingston usb drives
[05:16] <lighta> my usb drive had an error, but hopefully was discovered when I did checksum
[05:17] <chuckles> well i did checksum on my downloaded image and it was good
[05:17] <lighta> ok well then
[05:18] <lighta> hmm let see if I can found annother usb installer
[05:19] <chuckles> hey cool, it worked, i guess the problem was my flash drive
[05:19] <chuckles> damn, just bought that thing
[05:20] <lighta> ah
[05:20] <lighta> I think you're in right to complain then
[05:20] <chuckles> yeah, think i will take it back to fry's
[05:20] <lighta> fry ??
[05:21] <chuckles> fry's is a big electronics store on the west coast of the us
[05:21] <lighta> hey hmm by any chance are you familiar with svn with apache ssl ?
[05:21] <Dice-Man> hello
[05:21] <lighta> hi
[05:21] <Dice-Man> i'm actually connected to an ssh server
[05:21] <chuckles> nope, not me
[05:21] <Dice-Man> how to download a file from it ?
[05:21] <lighta> you want the command line ?
[05:22] <Dice-Man> scp breaks my teeth
[05:22] <Dice-Man> yes
[05:22] <Dice-Man> the server is in LAN
[05:22] <Dice-Man> the server turns under xubuntu :]
[05:22] <lighta> doesn't matter let me just try before gave it to you sometime I write wrong so
[05:22] <chuckles> thanks for all your help lighta, gonna play with my new os now
[05:23] <lighta> you welcom I didn't help much =)
[05:23] <Dice-Man> lighta: it's like a long long long cmd
[05:24] <lighta> oh well Dice-Man than I'll suggest you use an ftp client and use sftp option
[05:24] <lighta> that what I do mostly =)
[05:25] <lighta> or you use rsync but you should have configure that
[05:25] <lighta> don't you have a ftp client ?
[05:25] <knome> or use sshfs to mount the remote
[05:25] <Dice-Man> well ok
[05:26] <lighta> yeah something easier like that
[05:27] <Dice-Man> yay !
[05:27] <Dice-Man> it runs with fillezilla
[05:27] <Dice-Man> hum the client is under gnome :)
[05:27] <lighta> ah yeah that what I used too =)
[05:27] <lighta> hmm if it's under gnome you could simply add the server as a drive too, but I prefer filezilla imo
[05:28] <lighta> my computer was kinda slow...
[05:28] <Dice-Man> well
[05:29] <Dice-Man> if i want to add a different user to connect to my server
[05:29] <Dice-Man> i need to create an account on the server ??
[05:29] <Dice-Man> adduser !
[05:30] <lighta> hmm that depend what the goal
[05:30] <lighta> but yes you can always add a system user to acces it
[05:32] <lighta> but if it's only for ftp or something like that you may wanna take a look at virtual user using a file or db to set users
[05:33] <Dice-Man> yeah
[05:33] <Dice-Man> the goal is to have a different user to connect with filezilla
[05:33] <Dice-Man> instead of connecting me with root login
[05:34] <lighta> so it's like an ftp right ?
[05:34] <lighta> or you should do command on server too ?
[05:35] <lighta> you still can do your first idea and create users, idk if you can chroot them, must take a look at config file
[05:38] <Dice-Man> yep
[05:39] <Dice-Man> i'm happy to success in ssh stuff
[05:39] <lighta> =)
[05:39] <Dice-Man> i never experienced that with a true lan
[05:39] <lighta> hmm you did over web no ?
[05:39] <Dice-Man> not again
[05:40] <lighta> ah ok, well just the same
[05:40] <Dice-Man> i think i'll do that later
[05:40] <lighta> well I think not have many pc here :(
[05:40] <Dice-Man> i can let a computer switched on everyday in my current location
[05:40] <Dice-Man> *i cannpt
[05:40] <Dice-Man> cannot
[05:40] <lighta> that mean 7 pc ??
[05:44] <Dice-Man> it means electricity is expensive XD
[05:44] <lighta> hey guys can no one give a quite look about my apache config, I really not see what wrong about my svn. I followed that guide method 3 : http://queens.db.toronto.edu/~nilesh/linux/subversion-howto/
[05:44] <lighta> ahhhh yeah Dice-Man could mean that too xd
[06:12] <keron> hello
[06:12] <keron> someone can help me?
[06:12] <keron> im new with ubuntu
[06:12] <knome> !ask | keron
[06:16] <keron> i installing ubuntu 10.04, then i go to hardware driver, then i click activate for nvidia graphics driver, it downloads and succesfully installed the driver, then i restart and i show the blank screen
[06:17] <keron> i saw the blank screen
[06:19] <Shirakawasuna> keron: does ctrl+alt+f2 show you a terminal?
[06:20] <Shirakawasuna> keron: I assume this issue arose because nvidia (the driver) doesn't like your computer
[06:22] <keron> so waht the solution for the driver?
[06:24] <Shirakawasuna> keron: disable it
[06:25] <Shirakawasuna> keron: also, why are you using 10.04 and not 11.04?
[06:26] <keron> i already have dfownload the old version
[06:26] <keron> not yet the latest version
[06:27] <keron> how to disable it?
[06:27] <keron> i have go to boot menu > recovery mode, it doesnt appear anything
[06:34] <Shirakawasuna> keron: if you can ctrl+alt+f2, you can remove it using the apt stuff (sudo apt-get uninstall nvidia-common, maybe?)
[06:34] <Shirakawasuna> keron: but really, you should try 11.04 first
[06:34] <Shirakawasuna> keron: it has a better chance of just working
[06:34] <Shirakawasuna> it might take less time to download 11.04 than diagnose the problem
[06:35] <keron> o
[06:35] <keron> can u help about wine?
[06:38] <Shirakawasuna> maybe :)
[06:42] <keron> wine
[06:42] <keron> so ican run windows application on ubuntu
[07:13] <Shirakawasuna> whoops, forgot they were here
[08:49] <jarnos> Is there an alternative way to start new session from existing Xfce session than xscreensaver's "new login"?
[09:59] <Fudge> any accessibility guys in here
[10:00] <Fudge> 01.04 is lts though
[10:00] <Fudge> 10.04
[10:01] <Sysi> pop a question if you have one and somebody maybe ansvers it
[10:13] <Fudge> what else can i export to make things work better like thunar etc, it works with orca in gnome. export GTK_MODULES=gail:atk-bridge
[13:26] <jarnos> Is suckless-tools automatically installed in xubuntu?
[13:26] <jarnos> It is automatically installed in my system, but I don't know how.
[13:27] <jarnos> Maybe recommended by some xfce4-package?
[14:08] <incorrect> hi, how can i get the xscreen saver to use the nice gtk login form rather than the historic one with the flame
[14:18] <doaN> Hi there
[14:19] <andantino> hello
[14:20] <doaN> I recently decided to change from Ubuntu 11.04 to Xubuntu 11.04, installation was fine then I reboot and i a grub error telling me "no such device : uuid"
[14:20] <doaN> i have a grub error...***
[14:21] <andantino> hm
[14:21] <doaN> I searched on google, found some solutions but nothings work
[14:21] <andantino> i have never had that problem, i  just installed xubuntu this morning myself
[14:21] <andantino> have you tried reinstalling?
[14:22] <doaN> I installed on pc friend yesterday, works fine
[14:22] <doaN> i m dualbooting with win7
[14:22] <andantino> ok
[14:22] <doaN> yes 2 times
[14:22] <andantino> and the same thing happens?
[14:22] <andantino> hmmm
[14:22] <doaN> zap
[14:23] <doaN> yap*
[14:23] <doaN> http://paste.ubuntu.com/681209/
[14:23] <doaN> my grub.cfg
[14:24] <andantino> im fairly new to linux in general, so im not the best guy to ask
[14:57] <charlie-tca> !grub
[14:57] <charlie-tca> Works after installin Xubuntu , too
[15:07] <andantino> any idea what could have caused his problem
[15:30] <charlie-tca> andantino: what problem?
[15:31] <andantino> oh the guy with the grub problem
[15:31] <charlie-tca> windows
[15:31] <charlie-tca> it makes it very hard to overwrite the mbr
[15:32] <andantino> i have never had any problems with it
[15:33] <andantino> oh well
[18:13] <InfoLoco> Hello, I need some help please.
[18:14] <InfoLoco> I'm working with Xubuntu. I would like to include X11NVCserver when the system boots ...
[18:14] <InfoLoco> It is very complex for me, because it's my first time working with XFCE
[18:14] <Sysi> you want to run it when you login?
[18:15] <InfoLoco> yes if is posible
[18:15] <Sysi> settings → sessions and startup → autostart
[18:17] <InfoLoco> I'm sorry but I don't have  sessions and startup can I Intall it?
[18:17] <Qronus> hello, one short question: i would like the desktop to show the contents of my home dir, ~, rather than ~/Desktop; how do I do it?
[18:20] <TheSheep> Qronus: that's quite easy actually, but probably a bad idea
[18:21] <TheSheep> Qronus: there is that file ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
[18:22] <ElderDryas> InfoLoco: Settings->Settings Manager->Session and Startup->Application Autostart...
[18:23] <InfoLoco> Im Sorry for my expression.... Woooohoooo!
[18:23] <Qronus> thaks, thesheep; i have always had such configuration in another machines i use and I am installing xubuntu on a new one... uniformity, that's why. Thanks again!
[18:23] <InfoLoco> Thks A lot
[18:42] <mikodo> From above: Just for the record; Tried using Brasero to burn an .iso from DVD, could not get it to do it, so could not test to see if I could play an .iso of a biniary file in XFCE 4.8 with Mplayer or VLC.
[18:56] <mikodo> Anyone know any N00bish guides for using Window Manager apps in WMdock?
[20:55] <mikodo> Anyone know any N00bish guides for using Window Manager apps in WMdock? Edit: should have read Window Maker not Window Mangager.
[21:47] <art> hi all-I need to learn how to shut down xubuntu without being able to see the screen. I want an orderly shutdown, not just a forced shutdown/
[21:48] <Unit193> You could always run sudo poweroff
[21:50] <art> does that shut down by doing a normal power off???
[21:50] <Unit193> Depending on what you mean by that, yes
[21:51] <art> and, how do I envoke the terminal from the kb?
[21:51] <Unit193> CTRL+ALT+F1
[21:51] <Unit193> !tty
[21:52] <art> ok, ty to you all-will try.
[21:53] <Unit193> Alright, you will need to login first though
[21:53] <Unit193> I use ssh to login if there is a screen problem
[21:54] <art> understand the login in via the terminal!!!
[21:55] <art> will give it a go-again, thanks.
[21:56] <art> and, hi to n2diy, de ky1k.
[21:57] <art> im new to IRC and to xubuntu-my Dell laptop has the dreaded black screen video issue, so there will be times when I need to close down the computer without being able to see the screen.
[21:58] <Unit193> When you switch, it's going to ask for your usernaem and password
[21:59] <art> in ubuntu/gnome, I used windows key + S, then the down arrow to get to the shutdown command....but it doesn't work in xubuntu/xfce
[21:59] <Unit193> If you switch to it now, you can see it. You can always switch back to here
[22:00] <art> yes, I understand about needing to log in and password.....
[22:00] <Unit193> You can add a shortcut for it in Menu > Settings > Settings Manager > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts
[22:00] <Sysi> art: you could bind hotkey for xfce4-session-logout, press that combo and right arrow two times
[22:01] <art> I tried it, I can go into terminal and out of terminal to graphics.....but can't test the shutdown while maintaining the irc connection.
[22:02] <Unit193> art: Take a look at what Sysi said, it's an easy way
[22:02] <art> I don't understand about adding shortcut-----am to new.
[22:02] <Sysi> settings manager → keyboard → keyboard shortcuts, command is xfce4-session-logout
[22:03] <art> how do I bind a hotkey?? That's way beyond my understanding.
[22:04] <Sysi> go to that dialog, give command (press enter) and press keys you want
[22:04] <art> ok, I'm going to log this session and try to shut down using the terminal....I shall return...I hope...agn, ty to all.
[22:51] <art> it worked, thanks to sysi and unit193.
[22:52] <Unit193> Great!
[22:53] <art> there's a problem however....I don't want to share the administrative password with my daughter-
[22:54] <art> So I need to create a shortcut so that an administrative password is not needed.
[22:57] <art> Im trying to create a shortcut now-but the process is new to me-never saw that screen before::>
[22:58] <Unit193> art: You'll still need to login to a valid user, but type this in terminal and read it   man sudoers
[23:03] <mikodo> Well, I have been told that the Windows Maker project has been dead for 5 years now. I won't be pursing it at present.
[23:10] <art> I found the setup for the shortcut generator, and I named a new shortcut (shutdown), but not sure what to do from there.
[23:15] <art> menu>settings>settings menu>keyboard>open application shortcut>click 'add'>type name-I used 'shutdown'....but how to proceed from that point?
[23:15] <BlueEagle> art: Did you try CTRL+ALT+F1 for the text console?
[23:16] <art> no, didn't know how to proceed.
[23:19] <xrdodrx> hi
[23:19] <xrdodrx> i just built a desktop computer that will run xubuntu
[23:19] <xrdodrx> everything seems to work, but as soon as i get past "Install xubuntu"
[23:19] <xrdodrx> on the alternate installer
[23:19] <xrdodrx> I have no keyboard
[23:19] <xrdodrx> My keyboard is USB, it works in BIOS and before I get past the xubuntu splash
