| evelyn | hi guys im having some trouble installing xubuntu x386 11.10 from a USB drive | 00:23 |
|---|---|---|
| GridCube | what kind of problem? | 00:30 |
| GridCube | does the USB turn into a fire?! | 00:30 |
| GridCube | D: | 00:30 |
| Mahmoud | hi, can i install a copy of evince that is linked against gtk2 instead of gtk3? | 00:31 |
| GridCube | i guess | 00:31 |
| Mahmoud | how | 00:31 |
| GridCube | xubuntu has both engines so | 00:31 |
| GridCube | just install it | 00:31 |
| Mahmoud | just do sudo apt-get install evince? | 00:32 |
| Marion | So after I do xset dpms what do I do | 00:32 |
| GridCube | Mahmoud, that should install a version of evince yes | 00:33 |
| GridCube | i don't know if that would be gtk3 or 2 tho | 00:33 |
| ochosi | Mahmoud: depending on your version of x/ubuntu you'll either get gtk3 or gtk2 | 00:34 |
| GridCube | !info evince | 00:34 |
| ubottu | evince (source: evince): Document (PostScript, PDF) viewer. In component main, is optional. Version 3.2.1-0ubuntu2 (oneiric), package size 199 kB, installed size 1088 kB | 00:34 |
| ochosi | Mahmoud: until 11.04 you'll get evince gtk2 | 00:34 |
| ochosi | Mahmoud: only in 11.10 there's the gtk3 version of evince | 00:34 |
| Marion | Ochosi if I install 11.10 will it just replace my current distribution | 00:36 |
| GridCube | what distribution do you have Marion ? | 00:37 |
| Mahmoud | ochosi: i have 11.10 but want evince linked against gtk2 | 00:37 |
| Marion | 11.04 | 00:38 |
| ochosi | Marion: i guess it's not entirely easy to get the gtk2 version | 00:39 |
| ochosi | eehm | 00:39 |
| ochosi | i mean Mahmoud, not Marion | 00:39 |
| Mahmoud | sad | 00:39 |
| Mahmoud | will go dirty mode then (dirty stuff at xubuntu) | 00:40 |
| ochosi | Mahmoud: why would you want the gtk2 version? | 00:40 |
| ochosi | i mean what's the expected gain? | 00:40 |
| Mahmoud | just to use gtk2 themes | 00:41 |
| Mahmoud | i'll edit hte gtk2 theme and rename stuff to make it appear as gtk3 | 00:41 |
| Mahmoud | see how it works | 00:41 |
| GridCube | Mahmoud, xubuntu has the same theme on gtk3 than gtk2 | 00:41 |
| Mahmoud | their default theme is somewhat white and screwed my eyes | 00:42 |
| GridCube | oh | 00:42 |
| Mahmoud | what's the latest one? dark_days? | 00:44 |
| Mahmoud | or greybird | 00:44 |
| ochosi | Mahmoud: yeah, that's a problem. no quick'n'easy solution for that | 00:44 |
| ochosi | greybird is the only xubuntu-theme that has gtk2/3 support | 00:44 |
| Mahmoud | damn. the gtk3 themes are structured very differently (.css files) | 00:45 |
| ochosi | Mahmoud: yep i know, i made greybird's gtk3 variant (and the gtk2 one in fact :) ) | 00:47 |
| * GridCube was going to blame ochosi for not making a new albatross theme but he will not because he respects ochosi's hard work :D | 00:49 | |
| ochosi | hehe | 00:52 |
| Mahmoud | greybird still sucks | 00:54 |
| Mahmoud | i use atolm + my own changes so that i see no white bg at all while still being useable | 00:55 |
| Mahmoud | white bg is just for the stupids who are still thinking that lcd/crt/plazma are white papers | 00:56 |
| rhin0 | whats causing "dbus-daemon" to hog 100% of my cpu -- do I have a rootkit or something -- 100% of cpu from bootup | 01:38 |
| rhin0 | /etc/int.d/dbus restart have to run even after reboot -- to get cpu down from 100% .. what's it doing? (dbus-daemon) | 01:45 |
| rhin0 | I suspect it's "gnome services" in startup | 01:46 |
| rhin0 | i don't even know what uses "dbus-daemon" | 01:58 |
| rhin0 | "messaging" | 01:58 |
| * GridCube has no idea | 02:02 | |
| Marion | Hey gridcube how hard is it to upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10 | 02:05 |
| GridCube | i would guess not so hard | 02:06 |
| GridCube | but as i always do clean installs i don't really know | 02:06 |
| GridCube | you should delete all the . starting folders on your home though | 02:06 |
| GridCube | all the ones you are sure you don't need to keep | 02:06 |
| GridCube | so you dont keep conflicting config files | 02:07 |
| GridCube | and it should work pretty well | 02:07 |
| Marion2 | Stupid android | 02:08 |
| GridCube | :P | 02:08 |
| Marion2 | So if I install 11.10 will it just replace the current distribution | 02:09 |
| GridCube | pretty much, thats the idea | 02:10 |
| well_laid_lawn | the upgrade went fine here | 02:10 |
| GridCube | :) ^^ better help then :D | 02:10 |
| Marion2 | And would my files be safe our do I need to move them to my secondary hdd | 02:10 |
| GridCube | Marion2, thats ALWAYS a good idea | 02:11 |
| well_laid_lawn | should always be backing up anyway ;) | 02:11 |
| GridCube | let me repeat it THATS ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA | 02:11 |
| Marion2 | Who said I have good ideas | 02:11 |
| babble | lag? sigh. | 02:13 |
| Marion2 | Ok so any changes I made to say dpms or setting up auto mount would I need to redo that | 02:14 |
| GridCube | Marion2, on upgrades, i don't think so, but that could happen | 02:16 |
| * GridCube has never had much luck whit upgrades | 02:16 | |
| rhin0 | I wouldn't do it | 02:16 |
| rhin0 | would clean install | 02:17 |
| rhin0 | think I only did an upgrade to 10.10 went ok though | 02:17 |
| GridCube | yes i would do a clean install too | 02:17 |
| GridCube | but then you need to reconfigure everything | 02:17 |
| GridCube | :P thats not so hard when you remember how to edit fstab or save a copy of it somewhere and then replace it | 02:18 |
| well_laid_lawn | with a clean install you don't get to keep things like firefox bookmarks | 02:26 |
| GridCube | >save the json file >restore bookmarks | 02:26 |
| Marion2 | Sorry guys I'm at work | 02:34 |
| Marion2 | So back up my home folder and my con fig files i edited just to be on the safe side then cross my fingers to see what happens? | 02:36 |
| well_laid_lawn | yeppers | 02:37 |
| GridCube | yes | 02:37 |
| GridCube | if you use firefox also save your bookmarks | 02:37 |
| Marion2 | I have my firefox profiles saved to my secondary hdd | 02:37 |
| GridCube | :) | 02:39 |
| * rhin0 wondering why usb-creator-gtk creates usb installs that fail to boot now .. is that since 11.10 | 02:56 | |
| rhin0 | or is my usb key worn out | 02:57 |
| rhin0 | naw | 02:57 |
| GridCube | rhin0, you using this http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ ? | 03:00 |
| rhin0 | no I just use usb-creator-gtk -- blank the key - write the iso ... so far that's worked | 03:00 |
| GridCube | never did that | 03:01 |
| GridCube | unetbootin always worked for me | 03:01 |
| rhin0 | i think i've used that before -- creates usb keys specific to the distro -- ok that will prbably work -- suffice to say I think usb-creator-gtk has stopped working in 11.10 | 03:01 |
| GridCube | you can use an iso whit unetbootin | 03:02 |
| GridCube | ggg with no whit | 03:03 |
| rhin0 | i know i've used it before -- just have used usb-creator-gtk because it's simpler -- you don't have to select what distro -- just seemed to create a bootable usb for anything (before) | 03:03 |
| * GridCube needs to stop writing whit | 03:03 | |
| GridCube | :P | 03:04 |
| * rhin0 following the greece situation -- what will happen | 03:04 | |
| Marion | I wish I was at home | 03:18 |
| KingSphinx | I'm trying to install xubuntu-desktop, but apt-get hangs at 8% trying to fetch libpurple. | 04:05 |
| well_laid_lawn | KingSphinx: try a different mirror | 04:08 |
| KingSphinx | There's a different mirror for Xubuntu? | 04:09 |
| well_laid_lawn | !mirror | 04:17 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors - PLEASE use the !torrents to download !Oneiric, and help keeping the servers' load low! | 04:17 |
| well_laid_lawn | yep you select it in synaptic | 04:18 |
| Hannofcart | Hello, I'm trying to connect to a wireless network from a new Xubuntu install. lshw shows me that my wireless card is a BCM4311 device. I don't have any means to connect it via ethernet either so I tried the 'STA - No Intenet Access' method as described in the documentation: http://bit.ly/w0DUvf | 04:30 |
| Hannofcart | However, running System->Additional Drivers doesn't show any new drivers available for install | 04:31 |
| Hannofcart | Can someone please tell me what I ought to be doing? | 04:31 |
| Hannofcart | The wireless device does not show up in ifconfig | 04:32 |
| KingSphinx | If you're on IRC with that Xubuntu install, I think that means you got drivers working. | 04:32 |
| Hannofcart | KingSphinx, heh, no this is a different machine | 04:32 |
| KingSphinx | Oh wait... sorry. Didn't see the next posts. | 04:32 |
| KingSphinx | Try restarting? That usually works for me and my BCM4318. | 04:33 |
| Hannofcart | KingSphinx, yes, did that. Still no drivers visible | 04:33 |
| KingSphinx | BTW, I'm still trying to install xubuntu-desktop, and it still sticks at 8% and fails. I don't have Synaptic because I run Kubuntu on my machine. | 04:36 |
| Hannofcart | KingSphinx, you can make do with apt-get | 04:38 |
| Hannofcart | no? | 04:38 |
| KingSphinx | But apt-get is precisely the problem right now. When trying to install xubuntu-desktop with apt-get, it gets stuck trying to fetch libpurple and eventually fails with a "Hash suh mismatch" error. | 04:39 |
| KingSphinx | *sum | 04:39 |
| well_laid_lawn | KingSphinx: you can check in /etc/apt/sources.list which mirror you are using and maybe change it | 04:52 |
| evelyn | hi there, im having trouble booting into my freshly installed xubuntu install. the splash screen loads, and then i get stuck at a looping screen | 04:53 |
| evelyn | the screen just seems to flash over and over... | 04:53 |
| well_laid_lawn | evelyn: that's weird - did you do the cd check? | 04:55 |
| evelyn | hmm no, i think its a driver issue. seems like other people are having it here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1807612 | 04:55 |
| evelyn | i am able to switch to tty1 and get a login there | 04:56 |
| well_laid_lawn | evelyn: tried running an update? | 04:58 |
| Marion2 | So I'm trying to boot a linux install disk and it just goes tip black after I choose install xubuntu | 05:33 |
| well_laid_lawn | it'll probably need a kernel boot parameter for the graphics | 05:44 |
| jimmy8888 | hi how do i change my clock? it is incorrect by one hour | 06:11 |
| jimmy8888 | dpkg-reconfigure tzdata fixed it | 06:15 |
| marion | so i burned a new copy of the xubuntu and its going to a black screen after i hit enyert on install xubuntu | 07:37 |
| well_laid_lawn | did you do the cd check? | 07:38 |
| well_laid_lawn | it'll probably need a kernel boot parameter for the graphics | 07:38 |
| marion | so what do i need to do lawn? | 07:39 |
| well_laid_lawn | first I'd check the cd from the cd's menu | 07:39 |
| marion | at that menu that gives me the option to install? | 07:40 |
| well_laid_lawn | yep | 07:40 |
| well_laid_lawn | do you know the graphics card? | 07:40 |
| marion | and that will do the kernel? | 07:40 |
| marion | yeah its an ati graphics card | 07:40 |
| well_laid_lawn | marion: it will check that the iso you burned it from is ok and that the burn went ok | 07:41 |
| marion | ok how do i do the kernel update then | 07:42 |
| well_laid_lawn | it's not an update | 07:44 |
| marion | ok so what will i need to do for the kernel boot parameter | 07:44 |
| well_laid_lawn | how did the cd check go? | 07:45 |
| marion | havent done it yet | 07:45 |
| marion | im on the linux machine | 07:45 |
| marion | is there a way that i can do a cd check from within | 07:46 |
| well_laid_lawn | I don't know about that - you could check the iso | 07:47 |
| well_laid_lawn | !md5 | 07:47 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 07:47 |
| well_laid_lawn | I'd be checking for a bad burn that causes all sorts of issues | 07:49 |
| marion | ok i am redownloading just to be on the safe side | 07:51 |
| mikodo | sure nice to see more activity here lately .. G'nite :) | 07:51 |
| marion | within linux is there another program other than brasero that i can use to burn the iso | 08:01 |
| marion | brasero is telling me there is not enough space on the disk for the iso | 08:02 |
| TheSheep | marion: there are several | 08:03 |
| TheSheep | marion: xfburn for example | 08:03 |
| TheSheep | marion: or that kde one, forgot the name | 08:04 |
| TheSheep | marion: k3b | 08:04 |
| TheSheep | marion: it's also possible, that the iso is too big for your cd | 08:04 |
| marion | 677 iso 700 cd | 08:05 |
| Marion | Ok well laid lawn are you here still | 08:31 |
| well_laid_lawn | Marion: yep | 08:35 |
| well_laid_lawn | !tab | Marion | 08:36 |
| ubottu | Marion: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 08:36 |
| well_laid_lawn | Marion: you can type wel and hit the tab key and get well_laid_lawn | 08:37 |
| klawd | hi! | 09:34 |
| klawd | how can i make the terminal start in fullscreen? | 09:34 |
| well_laid_lawn | I can't find an option for that except hit F11 after it starts | 09:43 |
| klawd | i found ~/.local/share/applications | 09:48 |
| klawd | i guess that's key | 09:48 |
| well_laid_lawn | that's just the mimetypes files | 09:51 |
| well_laid_lawn | you could have a look at the .desktop files in /usr/share/applications | 09:53 |
| klawd | ok, so.. i added gnome-terminal.desktop to ~/.local/share/applications and put Exec=gnome-terminal --window --maximize in it | 09:57 |
| klawd | that does work but it's buggy somehow | 09:57 |
| klawd | it's too big | 09:57 |
| well_laid_lawn | why gnome-terminal? | 10:00 |
| well_laid_lawn | xubuntu has xfce4-terminal | 10:01 |
| klawd | yes, but i don't use it since it's all bold somehow | 10:01 |
| well_laid_lawn | if you run the gnome terminal command from a terminal is the size right? | 10:03 |
| klawd | i found a setting in the options that lets me set the geometry | 10:07 |
| klawd | that's good enough | 10:07 |
| well_laid_lawn | great | 10:07 |
| broken | morning | 12:06 |
| broken | can I install xubuntu from inside ubuntu? | 12:06 |
| gju_ | yes | 12:07 |
| gju_ | apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 12:07 |
| Sysi | !purexfce | 12:07 |
| ubottu | If you want to remove all !KDE and !Gnome packages and have a default !Xubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce » | 12:07 |
| Sysi | and parallel works too | 12:08 |
| broken | thanks | 12:08 |
| gju_ | can i somehow hide the skype icon from the xfce notification area? so far i only found how i can hide it under unity. | 12:09 |
| Sysi | skype's settings? | 12:21 |
| gju_ | didn't find anything there. | 12:26 |
| === `mOOse` is now known as m00se | ||
| ochosi | gju_: if you right-click the panel and get to the settings-dialog of the notification-area you can hide skype's icon | 13:31 |
| ochosi | gju_: but an arrow will remain to bring the hidden icons back, winxp-style | 13:31 |
| gju_ | thanks for the tip, but it seems that skye doesn't but its icon in this part of the notification-area. at least i cannot hide it in the menu. | 13:37 |
| jimmy8888 | hello, does somebody know how to configure bash in xubuntu so that tab-completion works for commands prefixed with 'sudo' ?? | 13:46 |
| jimmy8888 | (in a simlar way to how the 'normal' ubuntu terminal works) | 13:47 |
| Sysi | works like that for me.. | 13:48 |
| jimmy8888 | hmmm is it controlled by .bashrc or a different file? | 13:48 |
| jimmy8888 | ok fixed it: `sudo aptitude install bash-completion` | 13:54 |
| jimmy8888 | not sure why it was not installed as part of the base xubuntu-desktop metapackage... | 13:54 |

| surreal7z | Hi guys. Look, I have a weird problem. Xubuntu 11.10. After rebooting computer it connects to my wireless network automatically but when i disconnect it AND try to reconnect it.. the sigh just circles on and on and doesn't connect | 14:14 |
| surreal7z | So, it just works when it automatically connects at startup | 14:15 |
| surreal7z | I think it has to do with Avahi deamon.... but not sure | 14:15 |
| surreal7z | Now.. I'm connected... but if I want to reconnect it will not work till I restart my computer | 14:16 |
| surreal7z | it's driving me insane | 14:17 |
| surreal7z | Also:: ad_hoc networks work::: but access point one; don't | 14:19 |
| surreal7z | Several times I had pop-out about Avahi service and local domain... | 14:20 |

| braintorch | hello. Is there a way to replace thunar with nautilus or pcmanfm properly? | 14:35 |
| TheSheep | braintorch: what do you mean? just use the other file manager | 14:37 |
| braintorch | when I open directory or removable drive from desktop it launches thunar | 14:38 |
| braintorch | I searched some option in xfdesktop but had no luck | 14:38 |
| === `mOOse` is now known as m00se | ||
| TheSheep | braintorch: you can disable that in thunar's preferences | 14:54 |
| nicola | salve | 14:56 |
| braintorch | TheSheep: if you mean "volume management" I have disabled it already. | 14:56 |
| nicola | come si può cambiare il cursore di testo in xubuntu in modo da averne uno più sottile? | 14:57 |
| Pici | !it | nicola | 14:57 |

| jimmy8888 | hi is there a sticky or a faq for installing sun/oracle java in xubuntu 11.10? | 16:01 |
| Sysi | !java | 16:02 |
| ubottu | To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 16:02 |
| KingSphinx | Reinstalled with Xubuntu 11.10 last night, and so far, I've only gotten sound partially working through my USB headset. That is, I can hear stuff, but the volume control on the headset doesn't work, I have to adjust it using pavucontrol. | 16:32 |
| Sysi | volume control physically doesn't work or panel applet doesn't? | 16:35 |
| KingSphinx | The volume applet looks like it works (it notifies me about volume changing and whatever), but sound isn't actually getting any quieter/louder, it stays at a constant volume. | 16:37 |
| KingSphinx | I don't know if that all got through... | 16:37 |
| Sysi | KingSphinx: change it to use proper mixer/device in settings | 16:41 |
| KingSphinx | I've tried that, but volume still doesn't work properly. | 16:46 |

| Sysi | *Xubuntu (I think xbox-ubuntu was called xUbuntu) | 18:13 |
| [h4wk] | Sysi can you help me I have a litle question... | 18:14 |
| Sysi | say seomething with question mark and we'll see | 18:14 |
| [h4wk] | Is there any way to edit xubuntu right-click apps menu? | 18:15 |
| Sysi | it should be the same as panel menu | 18:15 |
| [h4wk] | ok...but how can it be edited? | 18:16 |
| Sysi | alacarte or lxmenued | 18:16 |
| [h4wk] | thank you....lxmenued? | 18:16 |
| Sysi | apt-get install --no-install-recommends alacarte | 18:16 |
| [h4wk] | thanks :D | 18:16 |
| Sysi | something like that, lxmenuedit | 18:17 |
| [h4wk] | Yeah this is cool :D | 18:20 |
| [h4wk] | @Sysi but some of options are not working...is it better to install it with recommends? | 18:27 |
| preecher | if used gparted to create a partition-- can i in turn "reclaim" that space/partition ? more or less put that partition space back from where i took it from? | 18:52 |
| TheSheep | preecher: where did you take it from? | 19:00 |
| TheSheep | preecher: you can delete the partition | 19:00 |
| TheSheep | preecher: it will then appear as free space | 19:00 |
| preecher | TheSheep, i took it from my main partition where i have xubuntu installed--i was going to dual boot between a couple of different distros but decided i dont wish to do that now and want to put it back if possible but i can always do a reinstall but was just looking for a easy way out | 19:02 |
| TheSheep | preecher: you can resize your old partiion when you delete that new one | 19:06 |
| preecher | TheSheep, i will do that then many thanks-) | 19:06 |
| SiDi | hey there | 19:11 |
| grizly | Hi | 19:12 |
| SiDi | just moved to 11.10, I'd like to know among other things: what on earth were nautilus and gnome-settings-daemon installed and running on reboot // what is this new power notification icon in my notification area and how do I get rid of it // why is empathy not using my default font size anymore? | 19:12 |
| SiDi | and also, where is my wallpaper? | 19:12 |
| grizly | I just found the "Settings Manager" myself, but it seems to cover Notifications/Wallpapers/Startup stuff.. its in the middle of the app launcher | 19:15 |
| TheSheep | SiDi: empathy? nautilus? sounds like you have gnome installed | 19:16 |
| TheSheep | SiDi: the extra power manager icon is probably from gnome-power-manager | 19:17 |
| SiDi | TheSheep: I'm kind of furious yeah. I signed in for XFCE :D | 19:17 |
| grizly | Or he has a tick in the "Launch GNOME services on startup" under Compatibility options | 19:17 |
| TheSheep | SiDi: how did you install it? | 19:17 |
| SiDi | it was gnome-settings-daemon | 19:17 |
| SiDi | TheSheep: regular update; | 19:17 |
| SiDi | grizly: pretty sure I havent :d | 19:18 |
| TheSheep | grizly: that would not explain how they got to his disk in the first place | 19:18 |
| SiDi | gsd was long time uninstalled | 19:18 |
| TheSheep | SiDi: my theory is that you have some application installed than suddenly became dependent on nautilus in the new version | 19:18 |
| TheSheep | SiDi: so the update pulled it in | 19:18 |
| TheSheep | SiDi: but it's just a working hypothesis | 19:18 |
| SiDi | thats not a valid reason for that thing to think it can replace my fluffy and sweet xfdesktop | 19:19 |
| SiDi | and thunar | 19:19 |
| TheSheep | agreed, but nautilus is bad mannered like that | 19:19 |
| SiDi | your hypothesis is most likely right | 19:19 |
| TheSheep | just remove it | 19:19 |
| TheSheep | with package manager | 19:19 |
| SiDi | ahah i purged it :D | 19:20 |
| SiDi | now onto font size problems | 19:20 |
| SiDi | lol the release notes claim exaile is still the default player | 19:25 |
| TheSheep | to be honest I long ago lost touch with xubuntu defaults, picked my own apps for everything and sticking with them | 19:27 |
| TheSheep | and that's probably the best way for experienced users | 19:27 |
| TheSheep | that is, for those who actually care which application they are using | 19:27 |
| SiDi | TheSheep: yeah and thats why i dont want an upgrade to add me some apps i dont use | 19:35 |
| SiDi | :D | 19:35 |
| TheSheep | you can always remove them | 19:37 |
| TheSheep | but agreed, compulsive upgrading just because there is a new version is not good | 19:38 |
| SiDi | good bye pulseaudio | 19:39 |
| SiDi | i'm pissed that i update my system in order to have a recent kernel and apps and that then i have to uninstall DAEMONS that i never asked for | 19:40 |
| SiDi | Im not sure if i did remove xubuntu-desktop before | 19:40 |
| SiDi | but this still annoys me :D | 19:40 |
| TheSheep | pulseaudio is useful | 19:41 |
| SiDi | Ok, exaile is completely broken | 19:41 |
| SiDi | TheSheep: it's not to me :o) | 19:41 |
| TheSheep | SiDi: if you like to configure your sound card in every application separately, then sure, go ahead | 19:42 |
| SiDi | TheSheep: GStreamer provides enough interfaces for what I need | 19:43 |
| SiDi | i know its friday but i dont have time for troll wars :p | 19:44 |
| SiDi | hm | 19:49 |
| SiDi | ochosi: there have been changes in GStreamer | 19:50 |
| SiDi | ochosi: which might explain the xfce4-volumed bugs and why exaile isnt running anymore. | 19:50 |
| SiDi | I feel like installing debian :/ | 19:50 |
| kapuze | does anybody know how to enable the thinkpad hotkeys under xubuntu? like Fn+F4 for suspend | 20:05 |
| Marion | So I am trying to run the 11.10 live cd and it wont support the kernel is there a fix | 20:08 |
| SiDi | kapuze: they should work by default unless your laptop's not properly recognized | 20:11 |
| kapuze | they are recognized well, they work under gnome | 20:13 |
| Marion2 | So is there a fix fire the kernel | 20:18 |
| Arpad2 | hello | 20:19 |
| kapuze | solved, i had to configure the shortcut in the settings | 20:20 |
| Arpad2 | can 32 bit program versions be installed on 64 bit OS ? | 20:22 |
| SiDi | kapuze: then its probably that the key was bound by gnome-settings-daemon, and isnt managed by xfce. Which keys is it? | 20:23 |
| kapuze | Fn+F4 to suspend the computer | 20:23 |
| SiDi | kapuze: you might want to ask in #xfce. It should be done by xfce4-power-manager, I think. but it's been a while since I last had a look at these things | 20:27 |
| kapuze | SiDi: u are right man, i found a setting there in the powet-manager, thanks | 20:30 |
| Marion2 | I am having a kernel issue | 20:42 |
| marion | hello everyone I am trying to upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10 and its telling me that it cant support the kernel for the graphics. Does anyone know a way to fix this | 20:47 |

| pertutatis | hi, anyone know how to disable scrolling on mousepad? (xubuntu 11.10) | 21:37 |
| well_laid_lawn | pertutatis: you can edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-synaptics.conf file for that | 21:39 |
| pertutatis | how can i do that? | 21:42 |
| well_laid_lawn | pertutatis: try in a terminal gksu mousepad /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-synaptics.conf | 22:00 |
| pertutatis | ok | 22:00 |
| well_laid_lawn | and turn anything with scroll in the name to off | 22:00 |
| pertutatis | sorry but nothing happens | 22:01 |
| pertutatis | what is suposed to run that? | 22:03 |
| executionist | what is the simplest way to video call someone from xubuntu to a windows machine? | 22:05 |
| well_laid_lawn | pertutatis: you'll need to at least logout for it to take affect | 22:06 |
| TheSheep | executionist: gmail | 22:06 |
| executionist | the mail client? or google talk? | 22:06 |
| well_laid_lawn | pertutatis: you could make the change through synclient immediately | 22:07 |
| === `mOOse` is now known as m00se | ||
| pertutatis | sorry I dont get it | 22:22 |
| well_laid_lawn | pertutatis: synclient is the terminal application that lets you set touchpad properties | 22:24 |
| well_laid_lawn | man synclient | 22:24 |
| pertutatis | may i type man synclient on terminal? | 22:25 |
| * TheSheep prefers gpointing-device-settings | 22:25 | |
| pertutatis | I'm lost here sorry | 22:27 |
