| sp4z | Hi, I have the following problem when connecting to a cisco vpn using VPNC and trying to ping anything in the new network "ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted" cant ssh or anything | 03:10 |
| sp4z | anyone know how to fix? | 03:11 |
| holstein | you've checked http://blog.technogeek.biz/2009/05/ping-sendmsg-operation-not-permitted-in.html and other places? | 03:12 |
| sp4z | holstein, yep | 03:13 |
| holstein | any further errors? | 03:13 |
| sp4z | holstein, ipmasq is not a command on my system | 03:14 |
| zhuang | Why can't I see my programs that are currently open in the taskbar? | 03:25 |
| holstein | maybe you got rid of the area that displays open applications... maybe you are on a different desktop and have it setup where you can only see the ones running on the others... | 03:29 |
| zhuang | i do have other desktops than XFCE...gnome, scrotwm and a few others that I can access through gdm... | 03:30 |
| zhuang | is this what you are referring to? | 03:30 |
| holstein | nope... workspaces... virtual desktops... whatever you want to call them | 03:30 |
| zhuang | nope | 03:30 |
| holstein | OK.. then you have removed the open application viewer | 03:31 |
| zhuang | actually, when I roll my scroll on my mouse, i go from my open windows to my desktop | 03:31 |
| zhuang | oh | 03:31 |
| zhuang | k | 03:31 |
| holstein | yup... you go to other virtual desktops... that can be it | 03:31 |
| holstein | if you dont use them, get rid of them | 03:31 |
| zhuang | okay, i have my workspaces set to 1 now | 03:32 |
| zhuang | uhm, for whatever reason, after doing alt+f2, and typing in xfce4-panel | 03:33 |
| zhuang | and running it, i still dont see anything that displays my open applications | 03:33 |
| holstein | OK.. its something you can add or remove from the panel | 03:34 |
| zhuang | if it makes any difference, i downloaded the xubuntu de from ubuntu software center while i was in the GNOMEclassic DE, then when I was prompted to choose the setup, I chose my custom open, and it created 1 panel for me | 03:34 |
| holstein | i would suggest either loading up the live CD, or making a new user account.. look in there and learn about what you need to have for that functionality | 03:34 |
| zhuang | well i'm currently on firefox searching but i haven't been able to find anything | 03:34 |
| McGuyver | on my panel it's called "Window Buttons" | 03:35 |
| zhuang | just tried xfce4 --replace in alt+f2 because a user on xubuntu forums is having the same problem...no dice | 03:37 |
| holstein | zhuang: correct.. its something that has been removed from the panel | 03:38 |
| holstein | restarting or starting the panel wont help since its not containing that functionality in the current state | 03:38 |
| zhuang | ah, i see. can't replace something that isnt even there... | 03:38 |
| zhuang | ye | 03:38 |
| holstein | you can see the default layout in the live CD, or in a new user account though | 03:38 |
| zhuang | brb | 03:39 |
| lighta | hoi | 03:57 |
| lighta | hey there no ant channel ? | 03:57 |
| holstein | ant? | 04:02 |
| newguy | Hi all | 04:48 |
| beata | Heya, I'm going to look into it more tomorrow (near bedtime): I have display corruption on shutdown, on two different systems. I'll need to check if it does it with a plain install. Just wondered if any y'all had it happen. | 05:23 |
| dbb | hi all - I just wanted to share with you the good news, that the XUbuntu-based OSGeo Live Disk v5.5 has gone golden master.. due to be handed out to most attendees at 10 international conferences in the next 6 months, so I hear.. thanks XUbuntu | 06:28 |
| nanotube | dbb: nice! :) | 06:44 |
| NyLes | hi, how will i know if Xubuntu is using the right driver for my video card? | 08:23 |
| well_laid_lawn | NyLes: lspci | grep -i vga will tell what card it is and then check /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see what driver is being used | 08:47 |
| NyLes | hi, i have an ATI video card, and Ubuntu only use vesa, how will i force ubuntu to use ati driver? | 09:27 |
| TheSheep | !ati | 09:28 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 09:28 |
| === moylan1 is now known as moylan | ||
| NyLes | help, I've tried glxgears and the highest FPS is only 53.. what am i missing? | 11:03 |
| bazhang | NyLes, a good video card | 11:21 |

| Kingsy | guys, how do you change file associations in xubuntu ? | 12:07 |
| Starn | i know.. this is not the right place that #windows probably is.. but i confused them or they confused me.. one of the two.. i am wanting to add a bash command i guess into the windows terminal.. i just wanna run irssi without having to type cd C:\irssi\ than ./irssi-cmd.bat just to load it... i would much rather do like in xubuntu and type irssi than it load.. like magic.. | 12:10 |
| Starn | i am hoping some one uses windows and is good at it.. and uses xubuntu.. to understand what i just said. | 12:10 |
| Kingsy | a bash command? you mean add irssi to the path? can you even run irssi on windows? | 12:11 |
| Starn | yeah they have a native port on windows i am actually using it.. almost half the apps i use on xubuntu is on windows even gedit and nano.. | 12:12 |
| Starn | even my music player clementine. | 12:12 |
| Starn | pretty shocking huh Kingsy ? it's the beauty of open source.. often works on all OS's.. | 12:13 |
| Kingsy | anyway, just add the binary to your windows path so you can run it with "irssi" | 12:13 |
| Kingsy | haha yeah | 12:13 |
| Starn | Kingsy: how do i do that?? i don't know anything about windows in this department :( also would it be possible for you to pm me or explain in #windows so we don't get into trouble? lol | 12:14 |
| Kingsy | Starn: yeah this isnt the place .. I would google it | 12:15 |
| Starn | google gave me a list of very confusing stuff.. ugh... linux so much easier .. | 12:16 |
| Thermi | whoever manages http://torrent.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/oneiric/release/ ... SHAME ON YOU! | 13:02 |
| Starn | what for Thermi ? | 13:03 |
| Thermi | try to download a torrent. | 13:03 |
| Thermi | just try. | 13:03 |
| Thermi | the .torrent file. | 13:03 |
| Thermi | it will give you an error | 13:03 |
| Starn | <--- in windows.. scared to get a virus. | 13:03 |
| Thermi | oh | 13:04 |
| Thermi | isos don't work | 13:04 |
| Thermi | but .torrents do now | 13:04 |
| Thermi | what. the .fuck | 13:04 |
| bazhang | Thermi, no cursing here | 13:04 |
| Thermi | sry | 13:04 |
| Starn | i don't.. yeah ok bazhang just said it nvm.. was going to say i don't think we're allowed to say things like that. | 13:04 |
| Pici | Whats the issue. I can download the torrent file itself just fine here. | 13:05 |
| bazhang | works perfectly here Thermi | 13:05 |
| Starn | so no virus? if not i can test as well | 13:06 |
| bazhang | no virus | 13:06 |
| Pici | Why would there be a virus on a file hosted on one of the main Ubuntu mirrors? | 13:07 |
| Starn | i don't know i just now noticed it was on the main mirrors... | 13:07 |
| Starn | Thermi: it works just fine.. even a very fast download speed.. | 13:07 |
| Starn | do you have your torrent client setup correctly? as well as fwd'ed ports if needed? | 13:08 |
| bazhang | yep, maxing my dl speed | 13:08 |
| Starn | appears to have a lot of seeders.. Thermi what torrent program are you using maybe someone can help make sure it's setup properly? | 13:09 |
| Starn | hey bazhang you any good configuring sound under xubuntu? | 13:13 |
| Thermi | Starn the problem was, that there were .iso files in the same directory, so i first tried those, but it failed. | 13:16 |
| Thermi | Why can i even see them if they aren't supposed to be downloaded= | 13:17 |
| Thermi | ? | 13:17 |
| Starn | umm? i'm not 100% sure what you asked Thermi. but if i understood.. it's because your os displays files in the middle of being downloaded.. and also saves portions of the files even when canceled? | 13:20 |
| Thermi | no | 13:20 |
| Thermi | you got it wrong | 13:20 |
| Thermi | i'm talking about http://torrent.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/oneiric/release/ | 13:20 |
| Starn | yes.. and the .torrent works just fine. | 13:21 |
| Thermi | the .iso files give me Forbidden. | 13:21 |
| Thermi | Why am I seeing them, if i'm not supposed to try to download them? | 13:21 |
| Thermi | and why are they even there | 13:21 |
| Starn | it's probably so the .torrent can access the files. | 13:21 |
| Starn | the files have to be seeded from somewhere before anyone else can seed. | 13:22 |
| Thermi | you mean the server torrent.ubuntu.com is also a seeder for the torrent? | 13:22 |
| Starn | i believe so. | 13:22 |
| Thermi | well that makes sense then | 13:22 |
| Starn | it's how blizzard works for their torrent downloads. | 13:22 |
| Starn | it just saves bandwidth to have more seeders for the original seed. | 13:23 |
| Starn | hey in irssi how do i close a channel?? i kinda have a lot of channels..... | 13:26 |
| Pici | /wc to close a window | 13:28 |
| Starn | thanks Pici. | 13:28 |
| xsl | is there a way to define the positioning of a panel that does not use positioning="x=number y=number" but use positioning"x=bottom y=bottom" | 15:33 |
| kuldeepdhaka | what is the minimum hdd size require for xubuntu installation.... | 16:03 |
| kuldeepdhaka | what is the minimum hdd size require for xubuntu installation? | 16:03 |
| holstein | i would say 8gb's would be comfortable.. i would think fitting on 4gb's would be tight | 16:03 |
| kuldeepdhaka | will it fit on a 4gb pendrive | 16:04 |
| holstein | you can try it.. i think it'll be tight | 16:04 |
| holstein | im not a big fan of the persistent live usb installs, but that might be an excellent case for one | 16:05 |
| kuldeepdhaka | is there any linux that is graphical ,user friendly and can run on a thin client | 16:05 |
| kuldeepdhaka | want to use thin client as os | 16:06 |
| kuldeepdhaka | personal computr | 16:06 |
| holstein | depends on the hardware what performance you should get, but id say any should do the job | 16:06 |
| kuldeepdhaka | 1Ghz processor, vio ,,,1gb harddisk,512 mb ram | 16:07 |
| holstein | sure.. it wont matter the specs so much as the specific hardware vendors and driver support... its just a computer for all intents and purposes.. the fact that its a "thin client" wont matter | 16:08 |
| kuldeepdhaka | will xubuntu will install on 3.8 GB | 16:08 |
| holstein | kuldeepdhaka: you can try it... i would want 6+gb's | 16:09 |
| holstein | you can always do the live persistent thing which should be a little bigger than the iso image | 16:09 |
| holstein | or, just get a bigger USB stick for cheap | 16:09 |
| kuldeepdhaka | ok | 16:09 |
| kuldeepdhaka | is thr any other linux that can work | 16:10 |
| holstein | kuldeepdhaka: sure.. *any* should work | 16:11 |
| kuldeepdhaka | i need a linux that can work like os[ubuntu,fedora,debian] but have light graphics and can fit on a 3.8 gb Stick... | 16:14 |
| holstein | kuldeepdhaka: cool.. if you do a live persistent install and *any* of those.. that should be slightly larger than the downloaded iso image, which should be around 700mb's.. OR you can try something like puppy linux or knoppix.. literally *any* of them should work with that hardware, and all of the run live | 16:16 |
| holstein | i say try them live, and install.. you wont break any USB sticks trying to install, and it shouldnt take long either (maybe even only 15 minutes) | 16:17 |
| kuldeepdhaka | holstein, | 16:36 |
| kuldeepdhaka | thnx | 16:37 |
| kuldeepdhaka | holstein, thank you | 16:37 |
| leo-unglaub | hi guys, witch backup toold do you reccoment for non-technical people like my mom | 17:58 |
| Sysi | deja-dup | 17:58 |
| leo-unglaub | normaly i use rsync, but in her case a versioning would be nice to | 17:58 |
| leo-unglaub | Sysi: is this tool working with thunar integration? or is it stand alone? | 17:59 |
| Sysi | separate app | 18:00 |
| leo-unglaub | okay, thanks! | 18:01 |
| lartza | How big of an upgrade will 12.04 be? Will it be seamless to upgrade? | 18:36 |
| lartza | I noticed I am always installing ubuntu and it's deriatives right before the next release... | 18:37 |
| beata | I end up doing much the same... then reverting back because they've done over the UI yet again. At least with xubuntu, even though I don't have the UI I want, I have one I can live with. ;) | 18:52 |
| ph0x1337 | have internal mic issues on xubuntu 11.10 | 18:53 |
| nelson8874 | hi | 20:47 |
| baizon | hi hi | 20:49 |
| nelson8874 | I have xubuntu 11.10. I changed the definitions of the mouse to move the slowest (definitions/definitions manager/mouse), but still i think it moves to fast. Is it possible to make it moves MORE slower? | 20:52 |

| ChristopherNg | knome: need to speak asap | 23:19 |
| ChristopherNg | let me know when you are there or i will need to send you a mail, you are tougher to get hold of than Obama. | 23:20 |
| Myrtti | ChristopherNg: it's 1.21AM in Finland... | 23:22 |
| ChristopherNg | Myrtti: he is finnish? | 23:22 |
| Myrtti | yup | 23:22 |
| ChristopherNg | I see thought he was american | 23:22 |
| ChristopherNg | where are you from? | 23:22 |
| ChristopherNg | well i guess europe aswell | 23:23 |
| ChristopherNg | just thought more americans here | 23:23 |
| Myrtti | Finland | 23:23 |
| GridCube | ChristopherNg, thats a pretty wrong guess :P | 23:25 |
| donavan01 | so I switched over to xubuntu desktop and wondered if there is a way to get the icons off the desktop and just have them accessible from the launcher (ADW I think) | 23:38 |
| GridCube | ADW? | 23:38 |
| donavan01 | what ever the launch at the bottom is ... reminds me of ADW from a few years back probably isnt | 23:39 |
| donavan01 | my bad it was AWN not ADW ... too much time in android world I guess | 23:44 |
| GridCube | donavan01, its just a panel | 23:47 |
| GridCube | if you want more launchers on it, drag and drop from the drop down start menu to the panel | 23:48 |
| GridCube | you can configure the desktop to not show any icon whatsoever, but i usually let the automount icon on, just so when using a pendrive it appears on the desktops | 23:49 |
| donavan01 | no its not the launcher that is the issue I didnt want the icons on my desktop I have a few drive partitions that I dont want to show up becasue there factory restore and my windows partition | 23:49 |
| GridCube | !fstab | edit fstab donavan01, adding the disks to automount on startup on some directory and they wont show up in the desktop anymore | 23:51 |
| ubottu | edit fstab donavan01, adding the disks to automount on startup on some directory and they wont show up in the desktop anymore: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 23:51 |
| knome | ChristopherNg, humm? | 23:55 |
| knome | Myrtti, are you suggesting i'm in bed at 1am? | 23:55 |
| Myrtti | yea | 23:59 |
| Myrtti | I am | 23:59 |
