| jbrouhard | xrdodrx, I'm assuming your keyboard worked on the live CD ? | 01:02 |
|---|---|---|
| xrdodrx | jbrouhard, indeed it did, i would have preferred console but i'm sure an i5 and 4GB of RAM were plenty for the graphical install :) | 01:03 |
| jbrouhard | rofl | 01:03 |
| jbrouhard | Does the keyboard work, at all, in console mode ? | 01:04 |
| xrdodrx | right before i get to the debian-installer | 01:04 |
| xrdodrx | it works at the boot menu | 01:04 |
| xrdodrx | but not past | 01:04 |
| jbrouhard | Mouse works tho? | 01:04 |
| xrdodrx | yup | 01:04 |
| jbrouhard | the hell | 01:04 |
| xrdodrx | first computer i ever built lol | 01:04 |
| jbrouhard | Try plugging it into a different USB port | 01:04 |
| xrdodrx | i was nervous enough, flipped when the keyboard wasn't working :P | 01:05 |
| jbrouhard | I'd check BIOS tho.. Just cause keyboard works in bios doesn't mean it'll work in the OS. Be sure that you have USB settings set up properly | 01:05 |
| xrdodrx | but jbrouhard | 01:05 |
| jbrouhard | one way to tell if the keyboard's working is to hit the number lock button :) | 01:05 |
| xrdodrx | it worked on the boot menu | 01:05 |
| xrdodrx | install xubuntu/ check disk for errors / memtest, etc | 01:06 |
| jbrouhard | Yeah.. you said that. | 01:06 |
| xrdodrx | i tried everything in BIOS i could think of | 01:06 |
| xrdodrx | :( | 01:06 |
| jbrouhard | hmm | 01:06 |
| jbrouhard | Try a different USB port just to see what happens | 01:06 |
| jbrouhard | if the numberlock indicator come son when you push the button it *SHOULD* be working | 01:06 |
| xrdodrx | it already installed but i'll give it a whirl soon :) | 01:06 |
| xrdodrx | i didn't even think of that | 01:06 |
| jbrouhard | :-) | 01:07 |
| xrdodrx | jbrouhard, i built this compy with xubuntu in mind, actually :D | 01:07 |
| jbrouhard | it's a good way to tell if the keyboard is "working" in terms of getting a signal from the computer | 01:07 |
| jbrouhard | hehe | 01:07 |
| jbrouhard | *ANY* computer can run Xubuntu | 01:07 |
| jbrouhard | period | 01:07 |
| xrdodrx | true | 01:07 |
| xrdodrx | but i've been completely free as in freedom at home since 2006 :) | 01:07 |
| jbrouhard | good for ya ;) | 01:08 |
| xrdodrx | i'll try that usb thing, i alsoo found a very similar bug against debian-installer | 01:08 |
| xrdodrx | i'm not sure how old the version in xubuntu is | 01:08 |
| xrdodrx | but i'll definitely report whatever i find to launchpad | 01:08 |
| jbrouhard | Which version of Xubuntu did you install? | 01:08 |
| jbrouhard | latest is 11.04 | 01:08 |
| xrdodrx | 11.04, amd64 | 01:08 |
| jbrouhard | Same version as mine then | 01:09 |

| csenger41 | someone pls help me how can i install global menu on xubuntu 11.04? | 07:49 |
| csenger41 | is there anyone here? | 07:54 |
| knobydobs | hello | 09:07 |
| knobydobs1 | my windows in my default user have no escape buttons and you cannot move the windows either. most of the time there is a X an the mouse or no mouse at all. how do i fix this. all is fine in the root user | 09:13 |
| madnick | You can --replace xfwm | 09:13 |
| madnick | Let me look for the entire command :) | 09:13 |
| knobydobs1 | how | 09:14 |
| knobydobs1 | ohh | 09:14 |
| madnick | xfwm4 --replace | 09:15 |
| knobydobs1 | thanks | 09:15 |
| madnick | However, you need to save the session probably, you can easily do that by logging out and make sure "save this session" is marked | 09:16 |
| knobydobs1 | the screen flashed a couple of times and now the terminal has gone weird | 09:16 |
| madnick | Oh, you should probably not have done this in tty7 | 09:16 |
| madnick | Sorry, I have not been sleeping for over 30 hours :) | 09:17 |
| knobydobs | thanks madnick but now when i log in the keyboard does not work | 09:21 |
| madnick | wierd | 09:22 |
| knobydobs | well it works once or twice but i cannot type into terminal | 09:23 |
| knobydobs | i have an idea | 09:23 |
| madnick | No text at all? | 09:23 |
| knobydobs | if i boot into recovery mode the keyboard works | 09:23 |
| knobydobs | but nothing in a user session | 09:24 |
| madnick | Likley the session somehow got mixed up and stuff isnt starting properly, there is a simple way of fixing that, but I do not have the link | 09:24 |
| madnick | !session | 09:24 |
| ubottu | To clear your session, go to Settings > Settings Manager > Session and Startup (tab Session), quit any programs you don't want to open and click "Save Session". The next time you log out, uncheck the "Save session for future logins" -checkbox from the quit menu. | 09:24 |
| knobydobs | ok | 09:24 |
| madnick | Hm | 09:24 |
| madnick | !xfwm | 09:25 |
| knobydobs | ok thankyou | 09:25 |
| madnick | There is acctually a FAQ somewhere, with session problematics on it, but I cannot find it | 09:26 |
| knobydobs | hello | 09:45 |
| knobydobs | again | 09:46 |
| knobydobs | thanyou madnick all is now well | 09:46 |
| madnick | glad to hear that :) | 09:46 |
| knobydobs | 1 thing | 09:46 |
| knobydobs | when i boot up i get error:hd0 out of disk | 09:47 |
| knobydobs | what is it and can i fix it | 09:48 |
| madnick | Sorry, I don't know | 09:48 |
| knobydobs | its ok | 09:48 |
| knobydobs | when i find a way to get on to inernet i will look up | 09:49 |
| knobydobs | its a grub error | 09:50 |

| oso1 | anyone can help me | 15:47 |
| Mito125 | hi | 16:02 |
| GridCube | !hello | 16:16 |
| oso1 | estoy aqui | 16:18 |
| Mito125 | hi, I installed a minimal version of ubuntu, after installation, i wrote in shell apt-get install xorg xfce4, i started X with startx command and in shell i wrote apt-get install xubuntu-default-settings... After restart, I'm block at gdm login... | 16:19 |
| GridCube | Mito125, thats not how you should install xubuntu | 16:21 |
| Mito125 | How should I install xubuntu??? | 16:22 |
| GridCube | sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 16:22 |
| Mito125 | xubuntu-desktop have more packages that i don't want...For example firefox... | 16:25 |
| GridCube | mmm | 16:26 |
| GridCube | Mito125, use --no-recomends | 16:26 |
| GridCube | --no-install-recomends | 16:27 |
| GridCube | --no-install-recommends | 16:27 |
| GridCube | there >sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop --no-install-recommends | 16:27 |
| GridCube | that should not install all that stuff | 16:28 |
| Mito125 | I'm trying... two minute... | 16:28 |
| GridCube | :D | 16:28 |
| Mito125 | thanks for now :) | 16:29 |
| GridCube | :D | 16:29 |
| Mito125 | sorry for my english, i'm italian... Now I do a restart... | 16:32 |
| Mito125 | It don't work... it stopped in the same point | 16:33 |
| GridCube | :/ | 16:34 |
| Mito125 | eheheehe | 16:34 |
| GridCube | you fixed it? | 16:35 |
| Mito125 | no | 16:35 |
| GridCube | so whats your problem then? | 16:36 |
| Mito125 | I'm block at gdm login. if I login, gdm hide it and reshown | 16:38 |
| charlie-tca | It does it because you don't have enough of the required apps installed to make Xfce work | 16:39 |
| Mito125 | What can I do? | 16:39 |
| charlie-tca | I would say either install xubuntu, or, if it is too much for the computer, install Lubuntu intead. | 16:40 |
| GridCube | id recommend you to install a plain xubuntu distro from scratch | 16:40 |
| GridCube | maybe whit the free software option enabled | 16:40 |
| charlie-tca | If you are running something you designed yourself, we won't be able to help you with it | 16:40 |
| Mito125 | ok thank u... bye | 16:41 |
| charlie-tca | We can't really help someone that decides they only want half of what is needed | 16:42 |

| pauld | I'm using xubuntu 11.04 and I'm having some ui problems. There are not minimize/maximize/close buttons on the windows, I cannot alt-tab to switch apps, I cannot use the terminal when any other application is open as the keyboard won't focus there, when I choose reboot or shutdown it only logs me out. What should I check to try to fix this? | 16:58 |
| tMH- | re * | 17:38 |
| tMH- | ppl, I just installed xubuntu on my 3rd computer from the 90s but the system won't load - showing 3/4 of screen with 'loading [ok]' and then stops. I suppose it is ACPI stuff (which bothered me on my 2nd PC with Ubuntu) - so the question - how do I change boot settings to disable ACPI usage? | 17:39 |
| SaaMmY | w | 17:41 |
| tMH- | should I boot from CD again and then edit some file on installed hdd? | 17:41 |
| SaaMmY | w | 17:41 |
| SaaMmY | w | 17:41 |
| SaaMmY | w | 17:41 |

| tMH- | seammy: it's ok for your IQ level. | 17:41 |
| SaaMmY | ok | 17:41 |
| tMH- | keep trying. | 17:41 |
| SaaMmY | sorry I have little problem | 17:41 |
| Unit193 | SaaMmY: There should be something like other options at the bottom of the CD menu, that's where you disable it | 17:43 |
| tMH- | unit193: is your answer for me or really for saammy?;) | 17:43 |
| Unit193 | tMH-: Oh, yeah. You | 17:43 |
| tMH- | Unit193 - ok, I got it. I think I should load from installation CD in live mode and then modify boot load parameters. just one small Q: - if there is NO GRUB(2) menu appearance - does it mean that GRUB(2) is not installed at all? | 17:44 |
| tMH- | and if it is - what file on installed hdd should I modify to disable ACPI at all ? | 17:45 |
| Pici | Just hold down shift when you boot and you will see the grub prompt. | 17:45 |
| tMH- | aha! | 17:46 |
| Pici | Press e to edit and you can change paramters there. | 17:46 |
| tMH- | pici: I see! | 17:46 |
| Unit193 | tMH-: Installed system? My bad | 17:46 |
| tMH- | thanks A LOT! | 17:46 |
| Pici | np | 17:46 |
| tMH- | Unit193 - yeah | 17:46 |
| tMH- | ACPI fscking again, fsck it. | 17:46 |
| Unit193 | Wow I'm tired... | 17:46 |
| * tMH- is gone. Away after 10 minutes of inactivity [Since: 09/04/11 21:56:24 MSK] | 17:56 | |
| tMH- | ok, it seems now passing through the stuff but won't load GUI... | 18:09 |
| tMH- | I understand it's an _old_ nvidia Vanta with 8mb ram | 18:09 |
| tMH- | but the xubuntu liveCD works nice with it | 18:09 |
| tMH- | what should I do to make GUI appear from installed hdd? | 18:10 |
