[05:01] <daysahead5> hmmm
[05:01] <daysahead5> i don't seem to have that problem i run 11.10
[05:02] <daysahead5> are you out of wireless range?
[05:02] <daysahead5> maybe having issues with the wireless driver?
[05:05] <ian_> not the range, possibly the driver, i'm not sure
[05:06] <ian_> it works most of the time, but just randomly disconnects and won't reconnect unless i reboot

[15:52] <c_smith> hello, is it possible to set up a wallpaper slideshow in Xubuntu 11.10? if so, how would I go about doing so?
[15:56] <c_smith> nobody knows?
[15:57] <c_smith> guess not, well, guess I'll come back when there might be someone who knows on.
[16:03] <autif> c_smith - Ubuntu recommends F-spot or shotwell - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Photos/Slideshows
[18:03] <rhodes69> Please help.  I have Xubuntu 11.10 running on a Compaq Presario F700.  I am unable to fully shut down the machine.  I've tried "sudo halt" And have used the GUI.  Machine starts to shut down then freezes with the Xubuntu splash screen not changing.  TIA
[18:09] <holstein> rhodes69: next time try the command.... sudo shutdown -h now
[18:09] <rhodes69> Hello?  Anyone there?
[18:11] <GridCube> nope
[18:12] <rhodes69> Thanks H.  Can the machine turned off using GUI?  I've installed Xubuntu for my brother-in-law who is _not_ very tech savvy.
[18:12] <GridCube> rhodes69, did you tried what holstein told you?
[18:12] <GridCube> it should shut down
[18:13] <GridCube> in any case you can script that shutdown -h now and add a launcher for that
[18:13] <rhodes69> Actually I'm using that machine now. will comeback to IRC after I try.
[18:27] <Myrtti> rhodes69: so?
[18:29] <rhodes69> Holsteins suggestion worked.  Thanks.  Now I need to  RTFM to learn how to set up a launcher for a script!
[18:33] <rhodes69> Bye for now
[22:19] <nate_> ok plain and simple question for anyone out there: why cant i install apps from the Ubuntu Software Center it keep giving me depency errors that i can t seem to push past
[22:44] <jakeH> Hi, I am a newby at Linux, been working in it for a few weeks now but I keep getting the idea I am missing something. When I am reading online documentation about command line actions it almost never includes "sudo". When I try them out on my own command line I always get permission denied ... I understand that's because I need to be a super user apparently to complete these actions, but now my question is: why is it that online guide
[22:45] <jakeH> the sudo part that is? I was under the impression that it was ill advised to log in to your super user account, and you should use sudo instead to gain temporary priviliges to complete the action you want to do
[22:47] <c_smith> Hello, is there a way to have a set of wallpapers run as a slideshow as backgrounds like Wallch can do?
[22:47] <c_smith> also, is Wallch compatible with XFCE?
[22:48] <c_smith> jakeH, sudo just grants you superuser permissions for that command and a short time after.
[23:40] <jwfoxjr> I'm trying to configure my Dell BT Keyboard with Xubuntu. It is asking me for a pairing code. When I use just vanilla Ubuntu it shows the pair code on the screen.
[23:41] <jwfoxjr> Is there anything that I can do get this paired with Xubuntu?
[23:59] <holstein> jwfoxjr: the pairing code will be for that device... is there a place to enter it?
