I am getting an exception when I try to run arandr (xubuntu 11.04, just trying to get multihead working). http://pastebin.com/sL1mSsj8 [05:18] Anyway to bring color back to some panel icons? For example, the dropbox one? [05:22] ish: try changing themes again [05:24] No go.. Was still on the default theme.. Its weird. Skype has color, dropbox doesn't. Empathy doesn't for that matter either. [07:52] hi [12:31] the xubuntu logo right after the grub menu before the login screen is about 5 sizes too big (low resolution). How can I make it look good again? [12:59] How can I be sure that my user belongs to "vboxuser" group? [13:00] "id" in terminal [13:03] Sysi: have you used Virtualbox? I can't get USB to work in guest OS (XP SP3). [13:04] you need to have some additions installed [13:04] pure virtualbox OSE doesn't support usb, see vbox website [13:08] I figured it out now. [13:08] :) === SaaMmY1 is now known as ZaaMmY === fstash is now known as sour === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [17:02] Hi [17:04] I am totally new to linux and I'm trying to have myself set up with a lightweight distro for a 2.0 Intel 2 Duo with no frills 2 gigs of RAM. I intend to use this machine as my main computer for work and school and for recording and producing music in Ardour/Hydrogen/Seq24 [17:07] could anyone help me out? [17:10] xubuntu734: with what do you need help? :) [17:10] Picking out a distro. [17:11] xubuntu is nice and has great community [17:11] Well, xubuntu would probably fit you quite fine, if not then there is lubuntu [17:11] I think there are other distributions too [17:11] I'm currently installing Xubuntu. Is there any way to make it "lighter wieght"? [17:11] I heard about this thing called "Fluxbox" and this other thing called "GNOME 3" [17:12] Yes, Fluxbox will probably improve performance [17:12] however, keep in mind it is not very user friendly [17:12] why do you need "more light" with 2GB RAM [17:12] I have a similar computer as you, Intel Duo Core, and 1GB of RAM, it runs Xubuntu flawlessly [17:13] I dunno when I was using Windows for audio production everything required like 4 gigs of ram [17:13] Is stuff in Linux generally easier on the requirements? [17:14] I have no idea about the programs you mentioned, but LMMS and Audacity is pretty low requirements [17:15] Oh really? [17:15] Wow. I used FLStudio [17:15] FLStudio is what LMMS is based on and it had crazy requiremens [17:15] Yes certain moudles [17:15] Are heavy, but not the main stuff [17:16] In LMMS is there a piano roll? [17:16] You mean a "piano on the side"? If then, then yes there is :) (Not sure if the word might mean something else) [17:18] Well I mean being able to program a melody by clicking boxes [17:18] Like a "pattern". [17:18] Boxes that line up with a piano type thing going down the side. [17:18] Yes it has that [17:18] fyi: #ubuntustudio and #opensourcemusicians might have more info :) [17:20] How do I switch to #opensourcemusicians? [17:20] /join #channelname [17:52] anyone know what the equivalent of indicator-power is in 11.04? trying to get the battery indicator to show up in the indicator menu [17:53] the indicator plugin [17:54] do you happen to know the name of the package? or anything more about it? i have the indicator plugin, but it's not showing the battery [17:56] or is it just that the battery indicator only works with gnome-power-manager/ [17:56] add notification area to panel? I'm not sure if xfce4-power-manager supports indicators [17:56] xfce also has separate plugin for checking battery state [17:57] i'm using the notification area icon for xfce-power-manager at the moment, but it's hideous, so i'm trying to get the indicator-menu one to work [17:57] hola, somebody speaks spanish ? [17:57] !es | xubuntu703 [17:57] xubuntu703: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #xubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #xubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. [17:58] raevol: do you mean your icon theme lacks proper icon for it? [17:58] Sysi: possibly, part of the issue is my notification area icons are 38 pixels [17:58] Sysi: isn't xubuntu using the gnome power manager though? [17:58] i notice that when they are 23 pixels, it uses a properly themed icon [17:58] i'm using elementary Xubuntu Dark for icons [17:59] raevol: you might want to file a bug for a missing icon :) [17:59] TheSheep: nope [17:59] -_- ok [18:04] elementary xubuntu doesn't seem to provide any icons for the battery [18:05] I think I had panel size 30 before icons started to get wrong [18:05] ah ok they are elementary-mono-dark [18:06] Sysi: the notification area has its own size setting, have you messed with that? also differs if you have the frame displaying or not [18:08] so the larger sized icons in elementary-mono-dark are the ugly ones [18:09] ugly being an opinion of mine, not an objective assesment [18:09] maybe i'll just have to make my own icon theme [18:25] raevol: try the tango generator [18:26] raevol: it automates the most labourious part [18:32] hi, when i run a game i get an error like this [18:32] Initializing OpenGL display [18:32] Estimated display aspect: 1.333 [18:32] ...setting mode 3: 640 480 [18:32] X Error of failed request: BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length error) [18:32] Major opcode of failed request: 65 (X_PolyLine) [18:32] Serial number of failed request: 13 [18:32] Current serial number in output stream: 14 [18:51] raevol: you need the xfce-battery-plugin [18:52] <_ToZ> knobydobs: see http://delogics.blogspot.com/2010/12/x-error-of-failed-request-badlength.html [18:52] charlie-tca: hmm, i have that, specifically i am looking for support for the indicator menu, not the notification area [18:52] I thought it would work in either one? [18:53] charlie-tca: perhaps it does? but it's not working for me at the moment, i am missing something [20:20] hello ! i would know if XFCE run in ubuntu because i m running it with Xubuntu but Xubuntu start wery difficult [20:21] hello charie-tca !

While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [20:30] i like Xubuntu with XFCE but please help me to star my PC, thank's, i will search on these site [20:38] #j ubuntu-offtopic [20:38] oups [21:10] hey guys. could anyone give me some hints as to how i'd set up a search box on my desktop for finding, well, any number of things on my desktop? I deleted the auto hidden panel at the bottom of the screen with a search thing and now I can't figure out how to get it back [21:35] hello, new to irc, fairly new to xubuntu so just TESTING CONNECTION [21:36] slarty: Working fine [21:40] ahh ty charlie-tca === Evixion` is now known as Evixion === Trowa2 is now known as Trowa [23:30] I just installed Xubuntu 11.10 Beta 1, and I'm having some trouble getting swap to work. When I hibernate, my session isn't saved, as if I just shut down started normally. [23:31] That's a known issue in oneiric [23:31] hmn, shows up as unknown filesystem in gparted [23:32] I think I had the same problem with Linux Mint 10 [23:32] strangely. [23:33] I also had a problem before where I had to move my swap partition to another location on the hard disk for it to work; it wouldn't work in a specific area. :S [23:37] BTW, I set up my partitions and mount points manually. I deleted my previous Linux partitions, shortened win7 partition, created new ones (one swap around 2.5 - 3 GB, one ext4 mounted as /) and mounted my win7 partition as /windows. [23:52] Also, Ubuntu Software Centre repeatedly crashes. [23:52] While installing software.
