[01:29] hi [01:29] does the xubuntu 11.04 livecd provide any way of viewing SMART info? [01:30] Superbest: theres a disk utility in most ubuntu live CD's... AFAIK, its in xubuntu as well [01:30] it has gparted yes [01:31] gparted and a disk utility as well [01:33] oh [01:33] would you happen to know the name? [01:34] Superbest: in the menu its actually called "disk utility".. i once knew the pacakge name.. not much to it, if its not there, you can install it on the live CD i would think without any trouble [01:35] you can try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Smartmontools as well, though i usually just use a live CD like http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ [01:36] ah, ok [01:36] in this case installing would be trouble, but I'll just try ubcd [02:22] it's rather strange that ubuntu pics up my lan/network, yet xubuntu doesn't. I have tried several packages in order to set it up but without success :/ [02:23] picks* [02:23] interesting... i tend to find little issues like that that im assured cant be happening ;) [02:24] i'm on 10.04, it doesn't come with a 'network' tab, under places [02:24] and you are trying 10.04 *buntu's?... i would expect different support from different kernels [02:24] i can't even ping the network, but if i'm on normal ubuntu, it works fine [02:24] i had the same kernel with ubuntu [02:24] you can always install ubuntu-desktop and just not use it [02:25] on top of xfce? [02:26] i mean, you *should* be able to track down whats missing and get just that, but i have no idea where to start [02:26] interesting. [02:27] neither, i've installed samba and other network packages [02:27] doesn't seemed to have helped [02:27] the few cases ive had, i usually poke around a few places, ask around and get a few "no way thats happenings" and then i give up and install the meta [02:27] istok: samba wont do anything [02:27] samba should allow me to setup shares, which in effect would allow my system to be visable on the lan, it currently isn't [02:27] maybe its a backport thats just not included by default [02:27] if i run ubuntu, it is visable straight away [02:27] yeah [02:27] istok: samba will work when the network is working... otherwise, it wont do anything [02:27] i'll get to the bottom of it, i just hope sooner than later [02:27] i would install ubuntu, then install xfce or xubuntu, and enjoy... [02:28] i'd rather keep my current system, it's perfect, except for the lan issue [02:29] cool.. we'll see how long you can maintain that chipper attitude ;) [02:29] i'm in an apartment complex, we've set up a sharenet, so i can get access to tv/movies/docs/etc [02:29] there are like 400+ PC on lan [02:29] heh [02:29] istok: youve tried searching the name in google? [02:29] the exact model? [02:30] i've tried everything, google is always the first place i check [02:30] maybe a bug report will tell all [02:30] exact model? [02:30] of the NIC [02:30] i can see mine, not the sharenet [02:30] istok: your what? [02:31] maybe im misunderstanding [02:31] the NIC is working? [02:31] you just arent seeing a wifi access point? [02:31] just install wicd and try using it [02:31] my nic works fine, it usually detects the lan on other OS i run, except xubuntu [02:32] the nic of the sharenet, no idea [02:32] the lan on the other OS i run... [02:32] you are setting up a wifi access point on some other machine? [02:32] regardless.. try another network manager [02:32] wicd would be at the top of the list of my suggestions [02:34] no wifi point, just cable lan [02:34] it's annoying, to say the least. [02:36] istok: im not following.. try gigolo then [02:36] or set up a more friendly share === autif1 is now known as autif_athome [06:56] Hi, im trying to find out why i always have to remove rtl8192cu and reload it after i was disconnected from wlan, any of you experienced this issue already? === aLeSD__ is now known as aLeSD| [13:34] how can i installl libreoffice in xubuntu 11.10?

[13:42] xubuntu should use libreoffice by default [13:42] is better than abiworld [13:42] personally, I like Gnumeric better than Open/LibreOffice's spreadsheet. [13:43] yes but libreoffice is a complete office suite [13:45] yes, my needs are relatively simple though ;) [14:03] Hi guys [14:24] what the [14:24] fuck [14:40] ... [14:40] ?
