GridCube | no not really, just make it smaller, thats why i told you to be careful | 00:00 |
DanielSenat | But i can't touch the first part, it's locked | 00:01 |
GridCube | DanielSenat, yes, that can happen, you need to umount it first :P | 00:02 |
GridCube | all can be done from gparted | 00:02 |
DanielSenat | Aha, so how? | 00:02 |
DanielSenat | Ok cool brb | 00:03 |
DanielSenat | GridCube, Could'nt | 00:04 |
GridCube | oh | 00:04 |
GridCube | then yes, you need to boot from a live cd | 00:05 |
GridCube | if you reaaaaaaaaally want | 00:05 |
DanielSenat | OK thank's | 00:05 |
DanielSenat | I just have some problem with hibernate and sleep | 00:05 |
DanielSenat | But, i guess it doesn't really is that big of a deal.. | 00:06 |
GridCube | DanielSenat, read the !swap examples | 00:07 |
GridCube | it says something about hibernate | 00:07 |
DanielSenat | Ok | 00:07 |
DanielSenat | GridCube, "gksu gedit /etc/default/grub & to pull up the boot loader configuration" doesn't give me anything just the numbers [1] 2861 | 00:12 |
GridCube | oh, i don't know what any of those things mean | 00:14 |
DanielSenat | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq from this page.. | 00:15 |
GridCube | oh | 00:21 |
GridCube | DanielSenat, do you have installed gedit? | 00:21 |
GridCube | its not the default editor for xubuntu | 00:21 |
GridCube | change that to mousepad or leafpad | 00:21 |
DanielSenat | ok | 00:23 |
DanielSenat | cool! | 00:23 |
GridCube | also DanielSenat everything after the & is not necesary | 00:25 |
GridCube | if you add it it wont work :/ | 00:25 |
DanielSenat | I know :) Thanks | 00:25 |
DanielSenat | everything is there, now i will reboot and hopen for the best! Hopefully hibernate will work! | 00:36 |

mahasamoot | I'm trying out xubuntu for the first time on the liveCD, and right away there's a big problem... not only is the proper driver for my nVidia card not loaded, but the Additional Drivers dialog only gives the option of nouveau-rubbish. How does one go about get the correct driver installed, as the install dialog often fails even when it offers to install the correct drivers? | 02:59 |
mahasamoot | Now I go to www.youtube.com, and flash isn't installed. As much as I detest flash, is a major web component that's needed for normal web surfing.First impressions count. Trying making a good first impression, by showing the nVidia banner at boot to let me know that the correct drivers are loaded, and installing flash by default. | 03:05 |
mahasamoot | Finally, I go to check the time, and NTP isn't installed either. | 03:12 |
GridCube | mahasamoot, flash is on xubuntu-restricted-extras | 03:13 |
GridCube | and the drivers for nvidia should be there if they are not search the on synaptic | 03:14 |
mahasamoot | GridCube, thank you for the point. I know it's easy to get, the point I'm making is that I shouldn't need to get it, it should already be installed by default | 03:15 |
GridCube | nope | 03:15 |
GridCube | is restricted for a reason | 03:15 |
mahasamoot | what reason? | 03:16 |
GridCube | privative license and closed software | 03:17 |
mahasamoot | id est, you don't want to install it. | 03:18 |
GridCube | its one of the very first things i install, the whole xubuntu-restricted-extras | 03:18 |
GridCube | but i know they are restricted | 03:18 |
GridCube | and i choose to accept that | 03:19 |

mahasamoot | horrible file manager | 03:25 |
GridCube | whit that attitude you ain't gonna win a lot of friends around here bro | 03:26 |
mahasamoot | I'm just giving honest first impressions... I'm a refuge from KDE | 03:27 |
GridCube | oh... qt | 03:27 |
mahasamoot | I'm trying to find something better, that doesn't crash, and isn't slow as molasess in Jan. | 03:27 |
GridCube | things are different back there | 03:27 |
GridCube | well you can always change the filemanager | 03:28 |
mahasamoot | so far, xfce is fast and hasn't crashed... it might serve my needs | 03:28 |
GridCube | use nautilus if you want, but i would rather learn to like thunar | 03:28 |
well_laid_lawn | people who whinge about free stuff amaze me | 03:28 |
GridCube | also if speed is what your after try lubuntu as well | 03:28 |
mahasamoot | it's not thunar is it? | 03:28 |
GridCube | mahasamoot, ? what? xubuntu comes whit thunar | 03:29 |
mahasamoot | oh... I thot thunar was different, I wonder if it's just set up weird. | 03:29 |
mahasamoot | like, doesn't it have options for power users? | 03:30 |
well_laid_lawn | power users can find all the options they need themselves... | 03:31 |
GridCube | power users use a tty and if they feel nostalgic mc | 03:32 |
well_laid_lawn | heh | 03:32 |
mahasamoot | well, inspite of the warts, there's alot to like here... I'll install and give it a week. Thanks for your help! | 03:34 |
GridCube | :) np | 03:35 |
mahasamoot | what's the hot key to open the run program dialog? | 03:40 |
GridCube | alt-f2 | 03:41 |
mahasamoot | oh, I thot I had tried that... thanks! | 03:41 |
GridCube | no problem :) | 03:41 |
mahasamoot | I just tried moving the panel from the top, to the side of the screen and all the text changes orientation to match... except the clock | 03:51 |
mahasamoot | Install process is running smoothly so far | 03:52 |
mahasamoot | I like that Desktop config tool, it's got an option to get rid of the icons, which is a good thing | 03:55 |

xubuntu_fail | no, normal cd | 08:48 |
xubuntu_fail | i tried xubuntu because ubuntu and kubuntu failed too | 08:49 |
madnick | is it when selecting language? could you dump to a tty and see what it says? | 08:49 |
xubuntu_fail | after language selction | 08:49 |
madnick | But do you get pass language selection? | 08:49 |
madnick | or does it hang directly | 08:49 |
xubuntu_fail | i select my langue click next, it check if my internet is working, i click next and it hangs | 08:49 |
madnick | Oh okay | 08:50 |
madnick | But if you press ctrl+alt+f2 | 08:50 |
madnick | is there a warning there? | 08:50 |
xubuntu_fail | no, anything normal | 08:51 |
xubuntu_fail | only that ubuntu comes with no warranty | 08:51 |
madnick | It may be a different tty, im not sure | 08:52 |
DanielSenat | Hi, I can't boot from my xubuntu cd | 08:52 |
xubuntu_fail | they are all empty | 08:52 |
xubuntu_fail | @DanielSenat have you tried burning it again? | 08:53 |
DanielSenat | xubuntu_fail, No I havn't | 08:53 |

xubuntu_fail | yes | 08:54 |
xubuntu_fail | i checked it twice | 08:54 |
DanielSenat | I can boot from it, but when i chose try xubuntu without installing it just takes so much time, xubuntu is written on the screen, but no boot | 08:54 |
madnick | Sorry I have not heard of this bug previously | 08:54 |
xubuntu_fail | @DanielSenat It can up to 20 minutes | 08:55 |
DanielSenat | xubuntu_fail, OK, it explains everything.. | 08:56 |
madnick | Thing is however, if you had a normal CD, the first dialog is checking internet connection, ive looked for bugs and I cannot find anyone like this | 08:57 |

knome | because something similar might come up with very little ram | 08:58 |
knome | maybe the graphic card then, so better try alternative as you thought | 08:59 |

mahasamoot | Hi, I'm just trying Xubuntu for the first time. | 13:23 |
mahasamoot | I'm a refuge from KDE4.... which is soooo slow, and also still crashes | 13:24 |
mahasamoot | I just installed Xubuntu last night, and am trying to get the hang of it | 13:24 |
mahasamoot | While it's much faster and there's alot to like, one huge problem I have is the "Run Program..." dialog | 13:25 |
TheSheep | what about it? | 13:26 |
KM0201 | mahasamoot: ..? | 13:26 |
mahasamoot | it's useless, no help at all... why doesn't it search as I type | 13:26 |
mahasamoot | can it be replaced? | 13:27 |
TheSheep | sure, you can use anything | 13:27 |
TheSheep | like gnome-do or something | 13:27 |
TheSheep | hmm, synapse, launchy | 13:29 |
mahasamoot | thanks, I'll have a look | 13:29 |
mahasamoot | I'm tried of this silly thing that thinks everything I type is a search term for the web browser.... when it's called "Run Program" | 13:30 |
TheSheep | huh? | 13:31 |
TheSheep | xfrun4 only starts programs | 13:32 |
TheSheep | synapse looks kinda nice | 13:34 |
mahasamoot | for example, if I type "gnome-do" into the "Run Program" dialog, it opens a tab in firefox, and puts gnome-do in the location bar, then ff tells me there is no such website | 13:38 |
mahasamoot | tho, I see that gnome-do wasn't installed... perhaps it would run if I had it... which I soon will. | 13:39 |
TheSheep | is that the same dialog that appear when you press alt+f2? | 13:39 |
mahasamoot | yes | 13:40 |
TheSheep | that's strange, it doesn't do web searches for me | 13:40 |
TheSheep | maybe it's some option | 13:40 |
mahasamoot | I misspoke... it's not really a search, it just thinks it's a webpage | 13:41 |
TheSheep | but yeah, it's not supposed to search for programs or files, it just executes the command you put there | 13:41 |
mahasamoot | if I type "google" it opens google in a tab in ff | 13:42 |
TheSheep | I guess that's a new thing | 13:43 |
mahasamoot | I guess it's not as bad as I first thot... tho, a step down for sure, when you're used to tab-completion... | 13:45 |
mahasamoot | TheSheep, thanks for the help... I've got to reboot due to updates L8R :-) | 13:46 |
