mongy | ThePendulum: the .desktop file | 00:00 |
---|---|---|
mongy | ThePendulum: look if a .desktop file exists for it first | 00:01 |
ThePendulum | There are no hidden files in that folder | 00:01 |
mongy | no, a file with extension .desktop | 00:02 |
ThePendulum | There's only a "Desktop" file, but none of the files seem to have a .desktop extension | 00:06 |
jadoe | mongy: i know. but at least awn and cairo didn't exactly integrate well with xfce the last time i tried them (~1.5 years ago). | 00:06 |
xubuntu049 | how fix apt error when installing xubuntu??? | 00:06 |
mongy | xubuntu049: what error | 00:07 |
mongy | jadoe: they should integrate as well as gnome afaik, with compositing available now and then compiz still available if needed | 00:08 |
xubuntu049 | Unable to configure apt to install additional packages... | 00:08 |
mongy | xubuntu049: what packages? | 00:08 |
xubuntu049 | dont know | 00:08 |
xubuntu049 | just some packages it didnt say what... | 00:09 |
mongy | ThePendulum: I just installed dropbox, it put an entry in my Internet called "File Synchonizer" | 00:09 |
mongy | ok, try sudo apt-get -f install | 00:10 |
xubuntu049 | if i restart the pc, xubuntu will not boot at all | 00:10 |
ThePendulum | You put an entry in your internet? | 00:10 |
xubuntu049 | and network didnt work so apt too didn work ǘ | 00:10 |
ThePendulum | I honestly don't know what you mean | 00:10 |
xubuntu049 | how to connect to wlan from promt??? | 00:12 |
mongy | ThePendulum: http://imgur.com/pTQWP | 00:13 |
ThePendulum | Oh there's more to that file than just executing | 00:14 |
ThePendulum | Well...? | 00:15 |
ThePendulum | What do I need to do with it | 00:15 |
mongy | edit the category to where you want it to appear | 00:16 |
ThePendulum | Well it should have it's own category | 00:16 |
ThePendulum | I am talking about the rightclick menu | 00:17 |
mongy | just copy mine | 00:17 |
ThePendulum | It is the same | 00:17 |
mongy | ? | 00:17 |
mongy | I don't follow | 00:17 |
ThePendulum | When I right-click on a file in my Dropbox folder, there should be a 'Dropbox' category with the 'Copy link' option, so I can share that file | 00:20 |
mongy | ah, I see | 00:24 |

god-zotac | what is the binary that runs the "crash report" in the indicator plugin? i want to get rid of it permanently, it is very annoying to me, and i usually am well aware of a crash without the need for a visual notification :) | 03:57 |
god-zotac | and how do i set up the keychain to automatically unlock/authenticate when loading my desktop instead of prompting for a password when i open my web browser the first time during the session? i know i can remove the keychain password completely, but that's not practical to me | 03:58 |
b__ | Anyone on irc? | 05:37 |
b__ | I could use some help | 05:39 |
brandon | alright I have used linux for over 4 years close to 5 and have moved to xubuntu after ubuntu switched to unity and gnome depreciated version 2. However I have had my computer go completely unresponisive where I had to pull the power chord to reboot. And by unresponsive ctrl+alt+f1 would not take me to a command line... This is the third time today what is going on | 06:07 |
b__ | Did you try booting from a cd, to try to pull some logs? | 06:11 |
b__ | <---- Noob btw | 06:12 |
b__ | but it's still a thought | 06:12 |
b__ | On my first 3 installs I borked some things up bad, and had to boot from a disc to fix them | 06:12 |
brandon | well I can still reboot into the system but the frequent crashing is driving me crazy | 06:15 |
b__ | I have you checked logs? | 06:16 |
b__ | Have you^ | 06:16 |
b__ | Does it only crash while you're using it, or while it's sleeping? | 06:17 |
b__ | brandon, I have a question for you.... | 06:17 |
b__ | do you have a bt dongle? | 06:18 |
b__ | blue tooth | 06:18 |
brandon | no, its built in blue tooth | 06:22 |
brandon | But I use BT dongles on my other computers but they all run gnome 2 | 06:22 |
b__ | I have connected a bluetooth devise via blueman, and enabled pulseaudio plugin, in the sound settings I can see the bt input and the volume level changing, but can hear no sound. I checked puvu control, and the alsa mixer, nothing is muted. I ran a sound record, which actually recorded the audio I could not hear | 06:27 |
brandon | a bluetooth headset? | 06:30 |
brandon | I have only used bluetooth for file transfers sorry | 06:30 |
b__ | My phone | 06:30 |
b__ | Oh | 06:31 |
b__ | I got obex to work just fine | 06:31 |
brandon | well you can access the files on your phone | 06:31 |
b__ | but cannot get the music to stream via bluetooth | 06:31 |
brandon | but thats all I have done in the past | 06:31 |
brandon | if there not encrypted | 06:31 |
b__ | I'm trying to set up so my wife won't blow the pc speakers on my windows machine..... | 06:31 |
b__ | My xubuntu is hooked up to my stereo | 06:32 |
b__ | and my big screen | 06:32 |
brandon | ah I see | 06:32 |
b__ | in the living room | 06:32 |
b__ | the pc is in the bedroom.. so she turns it up allllllll the way | 06:32 |
brandon | I know for a fact that you can limit users to a certin volume | 06:32 |
b__ | but If I could set it up so she only had to toggle bt | 06:32 |
b__ | .... | 06:32 |
b__ | then she could use the big speakers wirelessly | 06:33 |
b__ | :O | 06:33 |
b__ | I love the concept, and I'm so close! | 06:33 |
brandon | well Im saying I know that you can set the computer not to go above a certing level for her account | 06:33 |
brandon | srry certain | 06:34 |
b__ | yeah... | 06:35 |
brandon | these crashes are a pain when im trying to download 27,000 pictures ... | 06:36 |
brandon | well good luck let me know if there is something else I could help you with | 06:47 |
b__ | ty | 07:07 |
raven | hi | 11:52 |
raven | xubuntu 11.10 - cpu-freq-plugin does not take any effect to frequency - any solution? | 11:52 |
jadoe | why do i get openvt, when i want vlc? http://sprunge.us/NXUR | 12:16 |
TheSheep | jadoe: type 'which vlc' | 12:23 |
jadoe | /usr/bin/vlc | 12:23 |
TheSheep | jadoe: dpkg -S /usr/bin/vlc | 12:24 |
jadoe | vlc-nox: /usr/bin/vlc | 12:24 |
TheSheep | jadoe: what if you type 'alias'? | 12:25 |
jadoe | kill me now. i copied my aliases from os x. i have a 'alias vlc="open -a VLC"' in there. sorry for wasting your time. | 12:27 |
TheSheep | np | 12:27 |
TheSheep | raven: afaik that plugin doesn't work with the new kernel | 12:28 |
jadoe | what's the difference between notification area and indicator applet? | 12:33 |
mongy | radiotray ? | 12:34 |
Sysi | some apps only work with indicator-applet and some with notification area | 12:35 |
TheSheep | indicator applet is a retarded and broken idea at remarking the notification area, in short | 12:36 |
TheSheep | in an attempt to make the notification area work like on mac | 12:37 |
raven | TheSheep how to adjust it at least by cmd? | 12:43 |
TheSheep | raven: I don't understand | 12:47 |
raven | TheSheep performance/ondemand/.... | 12:48 |
mongy | it should be ondemand automatically | 12:49 |
raven | mongy yes but i need to adjust to powersafe and performance too | 12:52 |
mongy | ondemand is already good for that.. it will bump up when needed | 12:53 |
raven | mongy i need powersafe manually!! | 12:58 |
mongy | I think there is an indicator that can do it. jupiter I think its called | 13:01 |
mongy | never used it | 13:01 |

hobgoblin | I've got that jupiter thing on the laptop - seems to work ok | 13:05 |
raven | hobgoblin how to add it to panel? | 13:11 |
hobgoblin | raven: not remembering - hang on I'll go boot it up | 13:11 |
raven | hobgoblin does not work anyway - perhaps no root? | 13:12 |
hobgoblin | works here - which is not much help - I didn't do anything odd with it - just started it from the system menu | 13:13 |
hobgoblin | sits in the notification area I think | 13:13 |
raven | hm | 13:15 |
hobgoblin | shouldn't need root afaik - try it from a terminal and see if there are any errors - /usr/bin/jupiter-run | 13:17 |
hobgoblin | and when you say it does not work - what exactly do you mean? it runs but doesn't do anything or doesn't even run | 13:18 |
raven | does not change freq | 13:19 |
raven | oh! | 13:19 |
raven | from cmd it works right! | 13:19 |
hobgoblin | there were reports of reboot needed sometimes looking at forum | 13:20 |
raven | ok | 13:23 |

dvanstone | hello | 16:08 |
dvanstone | does anyone else use google chrome 17.0.963.56 ? | 16:10 |
mongy | dev version? | 16:10 |
mongy | 7.0.963.26 (Developer Build 116225 Linux) Ubuntu 11.10 | 16:10 |
mongy | 17.0.963.26 (Developer Build 116225 Linux) Ubuntu 11.10 | 16:10 |
dvanstone | I see a smiley before the tabs on the upper left and was curious if it was norm ? | 16:13 |
dvanstone | normal | 16:13 |
mongy | pic? | 16:13 |
mongy | how did you get .56? | 16:13 |
dvanstone | let me post it | 16:14 |
dvanstone | mongy; i'd have to look back in time a few days but I would think apt-get | 16:16 |
mongy | the dev ppa is 17.0.963.26, which I use | 16:17 |
mongy | the daily ppa is v18 | 16:17 |
mongy | so what do you have? | 16:17 |
dvanstone | 17.0.963.56 | 16:18 |
mongy | where from | 16:19 |
mongy | can you pastebin apt-cache policy chromium-browser | 16:20 |
dvanstone | http://imgur.com/zyzHw is the image | 16:20 |
mongy | that doesn't look 'normal' | 16:21 |
mongy | did you install some extension or theme? | 16:22 |
dvanstone | maybe I got it from google no themes | 16:22 |
dvanstone | http://fpaste.org/SRV3/ | 16:24 |
dvanstone | what is the repolist command ? | 16:25 |
mongy | ah, you are using chrome then | 16:27 |
dvanstone | from software sources I get it from http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/stable | 16:28 |
dvanstone | yes google chrome | 16:28 |
mongy | stable? hmm, seems they are slacking off in the dev ppa :( | 16:29 |
dvanstone | well chrome v chromuim | 16:30 |
mongy | ugh, yeah the chrome stable is newer than my chromium dev | 16:32 |
mongy | I best kill off the dev ppa if they aren't updating it quick enough | 16:33 |
dvanstone | the new chromes first page wants you to sign in and has users (under preferences > Personal Stuff) which I believe is where that icon comes from | 16:33 |
mongy | yeah the new users feaure. never use dit | 16:34 |
dvanstone | well in this version you can't avoid it | 16:34 |
mongy | it's in mine, but I'm the only user | 16:35 |
mongy | so with only 1 user that icon is up there? | 16:35 |
mongy | heh, the daily ppa was last updated 6 weeks ago | 16:35 |
mongy | bah | 16:35 |
dvanstone | no If you try to delete the users you end up creating more than one | 16:36 |
mongy | think I'll go with the chrome dev direct from google then | 16:36 |
dvanstone | and yes the icon goes away if you only have one | 16:37 |
dvanstone | but the sign into chrome is the launch page | 16:38 |
ThePendulum | Greetings | 16:45 |
dvanstone | obviously different | 16:45 |
ThePendulum | I removed Thunar and reinstalled it again. However, I lost that panel item and I don't know what it's called. It showed your bookmarked locations. | 16:45 |
dvanstone | Salutations ThePendulum | 16:45 |

mongy | right click menu | 17:29 |
mongy | default xubuntu 11.10 thing | 17:29 |
dvanstone | different here my right click doesnt have Calculate size or Applications | 17:34 |
mongy | I added the calculate size, its a custom thunar action since you cant do a properties on multiple file/folders | 17:36 |

foobart | Hi there. This isn't really Xubuntu-specific, but I don't know a better place to ask. I want to set up whole disk encryption. I use 3 hard drives, one for the OS, two for data. On windows I use TrueCrypt. It can automount disks that use the same password as the system partition, you only have to enter your password once, pre boot. Is there a way to set something like that up on Xubuntu? | 18:57 |
dvanstone | nvidia is well supported imo | 18:58 |
dvanstone | have you tried searching the software center | 18:59 |
mongy | I can play a html5 webgl game at relative high frames, but youtube vids just aint quite there yet | 18:59 |
mongy | software centre? for what? | 18:59 |
dvanstone | foobart | 18:59 |
foobart | For what? TrueCrypt? It works only that way on windows? | 19:00 |
dvanstone | what does truecrypt or what ever it is called do | 19:01 |
mongy | I guess you'd add the other drives to fstab, so they'd mount after your main / mounted | 19:01 |
dvanstone | well the installer should help w/ that or have that option | 19:02 |
dvanstone | foobart man fstab in a terminal | 19:04 |
dvanstone | ohh games chess connect 4 solitaire | 19:09 |
dvanstone | how many displays does your cards support | 19:11 |
mongy | me? | 19:15 |
dvanstone | yep | 19:16 |
mongy | its a laptop | 19:16 |
mongy | I have vga and hdmi interfaces as well. dont use them tho | 19:16 |
mongy | not sure what you mean otherwise. | 19:16 |
dvanstone | I feel rather confined when I have less than three screens | 19:21 |
mongy | oh. nah, just my 1080 is enough for me. plenty of workspaces tho | 19:22 |
mongy | cant believe ive only just removed indicator-messages menu | 19:24 |
mongy | only think used by it is pidgin and I hardly use that nor do I need to set status from there. | 19:25 |
hahn | any one know of a good program that can be used to view or fix a pdf that's corrupted? | 19:26 |
dvanstone | zerox | 19:26 |
dvanstone | oops I spelled that wrong | 19:27 |
dvanstone | xerox | 19:27 |
hahn | thats not free though, is it? | 19:27 |
dvanstone | where did you get the corrupted pdf | 19:28 |
hahn | a hidden service | 19:29 |
dvanstone | generally it has to do with what created the file | 19:29 |
hahn | but it's currently under a DDoS attack | 19:29 |
hahn | i opend the file and started reading it fine while it was still loading(it's 1000+ pages) | 19:30 |
hahn | then when it loaded ~900 pages it stopped and now i cant open it again | 19:30 |
hahn | i don't really care about the last 10% of the pdf though | 19:31 |
dvanstone | what viewer are you using to read the file (how are you getting the corruption warning) | 19:33 |
hahn | the first time i was using "document viewer 2.30.3"(in xubuntu) then i tried foxit | 19:35 |
hahn | document viewer says "The document contains no pages" | 19:36 |
hahn | but i know it does, and it's ~13 megabytes | 19:36 |
dvanstone | so you changed viewer mid stream | 19:36 |
hahn | no | 19:37 |
hahn | once i saw it failed to open completely i tried it again on foxit | 19:37 |
dvanstone | but you said 90 percent of it was displayed | 19:38 |
hahn | yeah, then the pages disappeared that that message poped up | 19:38 |
hahn | really weird, but that's what happened | 19:38 |
dvanstone | well you could always send it to a printer | 19:39 |
hahn | what do you mean? | 19:39 |
hahn | like give it to a shop and see if they can fix it? | 19:46 |
dvanstone | hahn; http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=pdftk | 19:48 |
hahn | yeah i have that | 19:49 |
dvanstone | that is what I read does it | 19:49 |
hahn | to repair it, yes? | 19:50 |
hahn | the only repair that pdftk does is 'repair a pdfs corrupted xref table and stream lengths, if possible' | 19:52 |
hahn | and that didn't work | 19:52 |
hahn | it came up with an error | 19:52 |
hahn | :/ | 19:52 |

d3eniz_laptop | Question, will xubuntu run slower if i install xubuntu-desktop on top of a normal ubuntu installation or is it the same thing? | 21:19 |
holstein | d3eniz_laptop: *should* be the same | 21:19 |
d3eniz_laptop | holstein: thanks | 21:20 |
Unit193 | It generally ends up not being quite the same. | 21:21 |
Unit193 | But holstein is right. | 21:22 |
holstein | yeah, usually something in there.. i could propose a hardware case (maybe) that could be slower one way or the other | 21:23 |
holstein | i wouldnt lose any sleep over it either way though | 21:23 |
justakill | hey if i want skype should i download the ubuntu version? | 21:27 |
justakill | for xubuntu | 21:27 |
holstein | justakill: yup... the .deb (32 or 64bit, whichever you have) | 21:28 |
justakill | cool thanks | 21:28 |
Unit193 | Should be in the extra repos. | 21:28 |
justakill | is the're anyway to make logging in freenode.net and entering channels automatically? | 21:29 |

justakill | whats the best way to do it in Xchat just send a command on entry, or set up server or nickserv password? | 21:40 |
justakill | i'm confused | 21:40 |
TheSheep | justakill: just set it up to connect with user and password | 21:41 |

god-zotac | mongy:: thanks, but seahorse isn't showing the password that i need to modify.. here is what the issue is. When I log in to the desktop everytime it is prompting saying "The keyring service was not unlocked during login. Please enter your keyring password" something to that extent | 22:37 |
god-zotac | mongy:: i have had the issue before with ubuntu based distros, and i have just had to open the keyring and delete the password for the default keyring. but seahorse is only showing my website stored data | 22:37 |
god-zotac | brb | 22:39 |
god-zotac | mongy:: it appears to have stopped that now heh | 22:41 |
mongy | have you set a different passphrase for keyrings than your login password? | 22:41 |
god-zotac | i hadn't done anything to any keyring related apps | 22:42 |
mongy | not had any keyring issues with my install and wifi etc... | 22:51 |
mongy | apart from setting the keyring pass to blank, not sure what else to suggest | 22:51 |
god-zotac | i can't even get to anything to change the keyring to blank though | 22:52 |
god-zotac | the keyring application isn't opening | 22:52 |
god-zotac | /usr/lib/gnome-keyring/gnome-keyring-prompt-3 doesn't work for me | 22:53 |
dvanstone | god-zotac; have you attempted with passwords you do know | 22:56 |
god-zotac | dvanstone:: it unlocks when i put my password in | 22:57 |
god-zotac | i was just wanting to get rid of the prompt everytime i login to my desktop | 22:57 |
god-zotac | because it is annoying having to put the password in once to login, and then again to unlock the keychain | 22:57 |
god-zotac | mongy:: dvanstone this: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17739212/Pictures/Screenshots/keyring-everytime-login.png | 23:07 |
god-zotac | let me try this. 1 sec brb | 23:10 |
god-zotac | that fixed it, just blanked the keyring (login) password in seahorse, rebooted, no more prompt | 23:12 |
mongy | cool | 23:22 |

nikin | define simple audio issue | 23:40 |
squire | running ubuntu studio (xfce) | 23:40 |
mongy | define.. | 23:41 |
squire | i was trying to adjust audio settings with the audio settings control panel and adjusting something wrong. Now a tremendous hiss is constantly there in background. i just want to reset all audio setting to default and start again. it was working fine for playback before i messed it up. i was trying to adjust mic/line in settings bc i had installed dragon naturally speaking in wine and Dragon kept telling me my mic was to soft to read. | 23:42 |
squire | but i cant figure out how to reset | 23:43 |
mongy | killall pulseaudio; rm .pulse* -rf and wait | 23:44 |
mongy | or logout/login | 23:44 |

squire | so enter that command in terminal | 23:44 |
squire | ? | 23:44 |
squire | killall pulseaudio; rm .pulse* -rf | 23:45 |
nikin | squire: i think the problem you made is that you incrased the playback volume of the mic. | 23:45 |
squire | hhhmmm ok | 23:45 |

squire | i was putting together this machine for hackintosh but kept getting kernel panics so i installed ubuntu studio to troubleshoot hardware and now im thing i just go linux | 23:54 |
squire | except i want to use my apple software :( | 23:54 |
squire | is there a 'wine' solution for os x? | 23:54 |
squire | or just virtualbox installing os x | 23:55 |
squire | ? | 23:55 |
nikin | depending what software | 23:55 |
squire | logic | 23:56 |
mongy | not heard of such an osx solution | 23:56 |
mongy | vbox it would be I guess | 23:56 |
squire | hmm vbox.... | 23:56 |
squire | idk | 23:56 |
squire | i might try | 23:56 |
nikin | virtualboxing audio creation software will be painfull | 23:57 |
dvanstone | nikin; no more painful than some other studip creation | 23:59 |
sp4z | vmplayer is free and more powerful that vbox | 23:59 |
