| Nonqwet | hi all! | 00:22 |
|---|---|---|
| Nonqwet | When Xubuntu will run as fast as Lubuntu? | 00:23 |
| Sysi | "run as fast"? | 00:23 |
| Sysi | what do you mean by that | 00:23 |
| Nonqwet | google translate... | 00:23 |
| Nonqwet | speed of work | 00:24 |
| Nonqwet | speed of operation and etc | 00:24 |
| Nonqwet | and? | 00:24 |
| Nonqwet | I think Xubuntu has lost its relevance. | 00:26 |
| Nonqwet | Xubuntu does not work faster than Ubuntu with Gnome 2. | 00:26 |
| Nonqwet | But Lubuntu fastest and more. And it uses less resources. | 00:27 |
| Nonqwet | Why are you silent? | 00:27 |
| Nonqwet | :( | 00:27 |
| Nonqwet | ok then bb | 00:29 |
| Paimun | well | 01:10 |
| Paimun | that was fascinating | 01:10 |
| alejandro_moreno | hi | 03:15 |
| alejandro_moreno | my newly installed xubuntu can't find my wireless card | 03:16 |
| alejandro_moreno | and can't automount CDs or USB sticks ... | 03:16 |
| alejandro_moreno | do I need to get a wired connection and try an update? | 03:16 |
| alejandro_moreno | or can I manually mount say the Xubuntu live CD and try something from there? | 03:17 |
| alejandro_moreno | can't mount CD | 03:21 |
| alejandro_moreno | /etc/fstab doesn't have a cdrom entry | 03:21 |
| alejandro_moreno | what should it look like? | 03:22 |

| alejandro_moreno | should I just give it up and reinstall? | 03:27 |
| === `mOOse` is now known as m00se | ||
| alejandro_moreno | well | 04:35 |
| alejandro_moreno | I did reinstall, and it went MUCH better | 04:35 |
| alejandro_moreno | I'm still getting an error about xfce-panel not running, or something like that | 04:36 |

| CrownWheel | Hey, xubuntu users. | 06:35 |
| CrownWheel | Has anyone tried installing the R statistics package under 11.10 yet | 06:36 |
| CrownWheel | ? | 06:37 |
| CrownWheel | Synaptic refuses to do it. "cannot be installed" with no further explanation. | 06:37 |
| CrownWheel | The "Software Center" has more helpful error text. | 06:40 |
| CrownWheel | All of R's dependencies produce errors like this: | 06:40 |
| CrownWheel | Depends: r-base-core (>= 2.13.0) but 2.14.0-1oneiric0 is to be installed | 06:40 |
| CrownWheel | is there a way to force Synaptic/apt/dpkg/whatever to simply USE the ubuntu5/oneiric0 versions of these packages? | 06:41 |
| jesusra-away | hi, I'm having freeze or hang problem on reboot or shutdown, somewhere I read that stopping networking before reboot could help and indeed it works for me, now the question is how to automatically stop networking on rebooting, where I can put the command so the first thing it does is stop network? | 07:18 |
| === jesusra-away is now known as jesusr | ||
| === jesusr is now known as jesusra | ||
| jesusra | also how can stop the graphical front end when the system starts or ends so I can see the log on screen?, thanks. | 07:20 |
| TheSheep | jesusra: remove 'quiet' and 'splash' from the boot options | 08:07 |
| TheSheep | !boot | jesusra | 08:07 |
| ubottu | jesusra: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto | 08:07 |
| TheSheep | jesusra: by the way, please don't change your nick on away | 08:07 |
| jesusra | TheSheep : sorry, problem with connection. will check the links thanks | 08:09 |
| jesusra | first thing I did was to remove quiet and splash, the result was a blank screen until the login to xubuntu appear | 08:10 |
| TheSheep | then you may want to disable framebuffer, but I forgot what is the boot option for that | 08:14 |
| TheSheep | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer#How_to_disable_the_framebuffer | 08:14 |
| StormStrikes | I know this is not the place, but Ive asked in the LibreOffice channel, the documentfoundation channel, the forums and got nothing and Ive tried over a few days. But is there anyone here skilled in Calc macros that I would be able to ask a few questions of? | 08:18 |
| jesusra | mmh, the hang on reboot may be due the wireless driver, I unchecked Enable wireless (translated from spanish Activar Inalámbrico) and now I can reboot properly | 08:20 |
| jesusra | TheSheep : the instructions in BootOptions seems to apply when installing, I found that on grub menu pressing <e> I can remove the line set gfxpayload=$linux_gfx_mode and this works, there are not too many log lines though, cu thanks. | 08:28 |
| Error404NotFound | I have suddenly lost sound after i rebooted due to some upgrades( http://pastebin.com/dAiix2am) also tried rebooting into older kernal, killing all processing using pcm, restart pulseaudio, etc... | 10:16 |
| cYmen | Hm...something seems to have changed recently and now xubuntu only uses one of my screen. Where do I change that? | 10:17 |
| kora-chan | hey guys, i recently switched from ubuntu to xubuntu (11.10) and was wondering what i have to do to get my ipod touch sync with banshe. libgpod is installed and lsusb yields the ipod device is connected directly. i also tried gtkpod, but none seemed to recognize the device. any ideas? | 15:07 |
| GridCube | !ipod | 15:10 |
| ubottu | For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod | 15:10 |
| dipseydoodle | hello | 15:44 |
| dipseydoodle | Does Xubuntu come with Apache? | 15:44 |
| dipseydoodle | (I couldn't find a list of Servers/Apps etc...) | 15:45 |
| GridCube | dipseydoodle: nope | 15:48 |
| Myrtti | I don't think apart from Ubuntu shipping with Samba and all desktop versions coming with CUPS, none of the Ubuntu flavours come with any servers | 15:48 |
| GridCube | !info apache | 15:48 |
| ubottu | Package apache does not exist in oneiric | 15:48 |
| dipseydoodle | Really. | 15:48 |
| GridCube | mmhm thats weird | 15:48 |
| dipseydoodle | Interesting | 15:48 |
| ablomen | !info apache2 | 15:48 |
| ubottu | apache2 (source: apache2): Apache HTTP Server metapackage. In component main, is optional. Version 2.2.20-1ubuntu1.1 (oneiric), package size 1 kB, installed size 36 kB | 15:48 |
| Myrtti | :-) | 15:48 |
| GridCube | ah there it is | 15:48 |
| dipseydoodle | Hmm? | 15:48 |
| GridCube | also lamp | 15:48 |
| GridCube | !lamp | 15:48 |
| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 15:48 |
| ablomen | basicly install php5 mysql-server apache2 and phpmyadmin and you should be all set | 15:49 |
| dipseydoodle | Ok thanks. | 15:49 |
| Myrtti | dipseydoodle: I think the reasoning is that the distro can be used in many ways and not everyone wants apache2 in their system | 15:50 |
| dipseydoodle | Btw, I am a mac user (have a nice macbook :P ) use them alot. I'm looking for an exiting new OS that a Hobby Programmer like me can play around with | 15:50 |
| GridCube | any linux should help you there | 15:51 |
| dipseydoodle | :p | 15:51 |
| dipseydoodle | I know | 15:51 |
| dipseydoodle | I just so happened to download the kernal yesterday. | 15:51 |
| dipseydoodle | \ | 15:51 |
| dipseydoodle | I'm thinking of making a new distro in my spare time :P | 15:52 |
| ablomen | !lfs | 15:52 |
| ubottu | LFS is Linux From Scratch (www.linuxfromscratch.org) - not to be confused with !LTS, which is the long term support release of Ubuntu (currently 6.06, 8.04 and 10.04) | 15:52 |
| dipseydoodle | I've looked into that before. | 15:53 |
| dipseydoodle | It seems quite helpful, but. I'm the one who can't stand DIY books :P | 15:54 |
| GridCube | !ot | 15:54 |
| ubottu | #xubuntu is the Xubuntu support channel, #xubuntu-devel for discussion regarding development of Xubuntu, and #xubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 15:54 |
| dipseydoodle | I'm quite familiar with Unix Source etc... I'm sure I could hack up some of the source cide and be happy with it. | 15:54 |
| dipseydoodle | I see. | 15:54 |
| dipseydoodle | Sorry | 15:54 |
| GridCube | :) no problem | 15:55 |
| dipseydoodle | (ontopic) I don't want to waste all your time so I'll make this last question short. Am I right when I assume that this distro comes with GCC? or is there something else I need to download aswell? | 15:56 |
| Myrtti | !info build-essential | 15:56 |
| ubottu | build-essential (source: build-essential): Informational list of build-essential packages. In component main, is optional. Version 11.5ubuntu1 (oneiric), package size 5 kB, installed size 48 kB | 15:56 |
| Myrtti | again, not everyone needs GCC so you need to install it - best way to do that is to install the build-essential package which pulls all the dependencies. | 15:57 |
| Myrtti | well, all the dependencies needed for basic work. | 15:57 |
| dipseydoodle | Ok | 15:57 |
| dipseydoodle | thanks | 15:57 |

| holstein | or challenging | 16:45 |
| xubuntu433 | and is there anyway to restore xubuntu without reinstall? | 16:46 |
| xubuntu433 | i install gnomescreensaver but i cant change background | 16:46 |
| GridCube | depends on what went wrong | 16:46 |
| xubuntu433 | i remove xscreensaver install gnomescreensaver. I install xscreensaver but screensaver setting gone | 16:47 |
| baizon | so remove the config | 16:48 |
| xubuntu433 | ? | 16:48 |
| baizon | sorry i mean recreate it | 16:49 |
| baizon | dpkg-reconfigure xscreensaver | 16:49 |

| revenuar | hello, does skype work with xubuntu? | 18:00 |
| Unit193 | If not, you may want to tell Skype as I'm running it now ;) | 18:02 |
| revenuar | i keep on getting: failed to download package files, check your internet connection | 18:04 |
| revenuar | via the software centre | 18:04 |
| Unit193 | You are online with that same computer? Try opening Synaptic and "reloading" the package list. Did you enable the third party repo? | 18:05 |
| revenuar | yes, no | 18:06 |
| Unit193 | !partner | 18:08 |
| ubottu | Canonical's partner repositories provide packages a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" » | 18:08 |
| Unit193 | Or you can use Synaptic to add it | 18:08 |
| revenuar | okay, skypes in queue. should have looked here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype before i asked. sorry | 18:16 |
| revenuar | thanks! | 18:17 |
| Linze | hoi | 18:28 |
| ajauregui | Hi!!! | 20:21 |
| ajauregui | i need to mount a SD card in xubuntu | 20:21 |
| ajauregui | when i insert the card nothing happens | 20:22 |
| ajauregui | can anybody help me? | 20:22 |
| drx1 | is Xubuntu the lightest Ubutu version? | 21:53 |
| drx1 | Can you install Xubuntu on a PII/450Mhz/384M/5G system and have it run sufficiently quickly? | 21:53 |
| drx1 | Is it possible to install Xubuntu from a bootable floppy or start the installation for an MSDOS boot floppy? | 21:54 |
| TheSheep | drx1: no | 21:54 |
| drx1 | TheSheep: which is the lightest? | 21:54 |
| drx1 | or is that no to have it run well? | 21:55 |
| TheSheep | drx1: no idea, but that is way too little ram to run xubuntu | 21:55 |
| TheSheep | also, what does "the lightest" mean? | 21:55 |
| TheSheep | ubuntu server would be the lightest, I guess | 21:55 |
| drx1 | so no ubuntu flavor for an old laptop, eh? | 21:55 |
| TheSheep | console-only | 21:55 |
| TheSheep | ram is cheap | 21:56 |
| drx1 | this system maxes out at 384M | 21:56 |
| TheSheep | and modern web browsers eat ram like hogs | 21:56 |
| TheSheep | no matter how light your system is, the applications will use most of the ram | 21:57 |
| TheSheep | you can try the distros that are specifically designed for small computers, like damn small linux or puppy linux | 21:59 |
| drx1 | i reallly need it to (1) compile C apps (configure/make) (2) run disk utilities, (3) subversion, (4) view office documents (e.g., open office). browsing would be secondary | 21:59 |
| TheSheep | open office is even more of a ram hog | 21:59 |
| TheSheep | other than that you are alright with just the console | 21:59 |
| drx1 | console will get me the first three, but not the last 2 | 22:00 |
| drx1 | what about Ubuntu compatible puppy linux... is that any good? | 22:10 |
| drx1 | is there any browser that won't try to hog all your RAM? | 22:21 |
| w30 | drx1, Ha! Yeah use wget | 22:55 |
| holstein | midori seems nice and light | 22:55 |
| w30 | holstein, check out this url for emerald and libemeraldengine for xubuntu; works for me.http://askubuntu.com/questions/82198/is-it-possible-to-keep-the-window-buttons-and-title-opaque-and-the-border-trans | 23:06 |
| holstein | yeah, emerald works for me | 23:07 |
| holstein | i get compiz working... its just slow | 23:07 |
| holstein | and focus problems | 23:07 |
| w30 | holstein, I fixed my speed problem by editing /proc/cpuinfo with "model name: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600K CPU @ 3.40GHz" | 23:10 |
| Sysi | holstein: sounds exactly like compiz :P | 23:10 |
| holstein | yup... its not slow pre-compiz w30 | 23:12 |
| w30 | holstein, I don't know what compiz needs to run well, Everyone says you don't need anything like what Vista needs but Vista needs a lot so that don't say much | 23:15 |
| Sysi | compiz needs good drivers | 23:17 |
| w30 | Sysi, it needs at the least 3d drivers that support Open GL | 23:19 |
| Sysi | anything less is nowhere near "good" | 23:20 |
| w30 | I need a 4th button on my mouse to run the cube; Otherwise I am good to go. | 23:26 |
| w30 | If I use buttons 1 thru 3, I loose some other window manager function. I have it buuton 1 plus super. | 23:28 |
| Sysi | cube sucks, it would be awesome to have button for scale | 23:28 |
| w30 | Sysi, That's a good Idea you need to head to New Egg com eh? | 23:30 |
| Sysi | on other tought, having apple magic trackpad would be more awesome | 23:31 |
| Sysi | I wonder how well ginn works | 23:31 |
| w30 | Sysi, what's ginn? | 23:34 |
| Sysi | daemon for multitouch gestures | 23:34 |
| w30 | Sysi, oh, ok. Is that for touch screens also? | 23:35 |
| Sysi | idk | 23:36 |
| w30 | I hate dirty screens and dirty glasses. I can't keep either clean even trying not to touch either. no touch screens for me unless I can wipe them off on my sleeve. | 23:38 |
| Sysi | I can't keep mousepad or trackball clean | 23:39 |
| Sysi | not clean screen is much easier to not notice | 23:41 |
