AzelphurUsing Xubuntu 11.10, it seems that my theme doesn't apply to some apps (gcalctool, gedit). I'm thinking this might be a gnome 3 thing. Any ideas on how to workaround it?19:30
m6lockshow to disable visualisations in totem? (not the plugin)19:31
SysiAzelphur: get theme with gtk3 theming or copy greybird's gtk3 to your theme folder19:35
Azelphurfun19:36
charlie-tcaUsing Xubuntu 11.10, already has greybird installed. choose it in appearance and window manager settings19:40
charlie-tcaSysi: default theme in 11.10 is greybird19:40
Sysithat's how I knew he could copu gtk3 part of it19:41
charlie-tcaI thought it was all automatic with greybird. It should use gtk2 or gtk3 parts of the theme as needed?19:44
charlie-tcaOr is that not possible?19:44
Sysihe apparently isn't using greybird19:47
charlie-tcaThat is very possible.19:48
charlie-tcaThere are still only two themes that are gtk3, too, right?19:48
TheSheepin the light-themes package19:51
TheSheepradiance and ambience19:51
charlie-tcaand greybird and awaita(?) for Xfce19:53
charlie-tcaThe only one Xubuntu ships is greybird, though19:53

django_hey, i ran into problems installing ubuntu on an old hp compaq nx9020...i think the 400mhz cpu does suffice so i thought xubuntu....do you guys think that would work?22:17
charlie-tcahow much ram?22:17
django_(here's a list of hardware specs fyi) http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/11996_div/11996_div.html22:17
django_not sure..let me check, charlie-tca22:18
django_22422:19
django_i just noticed..it actually has 1.4 ghz22:19
charlie-tca224MB ram? It will be slow with Xubuntu22:19
charlie-tcaprobably limited to about a single app at a time.22:19
charlie-tcaLubuntu might be a better choice for it, since it is made for low memory units.22:20
charlie-tca!lubuntu22:20
ubottulubuntu is a project to create a derivative of Ubuntu using the LXDE desktop environment. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu . /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support.22:20
genii-aroundSince that box can go to 1GB of ram, you should probably try to stuff some more in there first... at least 512 anyhoo22:20
django_yea more ram should do it..22:21
charlie-tcadjango_: you can always download and try the desktop cd. It is a live cd, so you can try without installing.22:21
django_yea i'll try that now, thanks22:21
django_it's not my own laptop...i think i'll try out lubuntu first and also ask the person whether she wants to invest a bit in more ram22:22
django_could it be a graphics card issue that the ubuntu installer didn't load though?22:23
charlie-tcaNope22:23
charlie-tcaprobably a direct result of the ram22:23
django_ok thanks22:24
django_i'll obt for more ram then22:24
charlie-tcaOkay22:24
charlie-tcaUbuntu now requires either 384MB or 512MB to install, as I recall.22:24
django_i should have looked at that before i erased xp :(22:26
django_but whatever, i'll go get more ram tomorrow then22:26
charlie-tcaOkay22:27
django_thanks a lot for your help charlie-tca, genii-around22:27
charlie-tcaw22:27
charlie-tcayou are welcome22:27
