[01:17] knewbie_, those issues are in #ubuntu+1 [01:23] Hey! I have this funny problem with xubuntu 11.10 - http://youtu.be/VC7wXPcqjhM [03:19] Totally new to Xubuntu distros. Managed to get LiveCD, boot menu working, select language, then...nothing. If it's something stupid that I'm missing, please let me know. [03:26] Totally new to Xubuntu distros. Managed to get LiveCD, boot menu working, select language, then...nothing. If it's something stupid that I'm missing, please let me know. [03:27] which version are you trying? [03:40] 11.10 I just got it to boot on a diff laptop, so it may be related to video cards. I'm guessing at this point. === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [03:45] JbPaladin are you doing x86 or AMD64? [03:48] AMD64, with a Core2 on both systems. [03:50] I've got an A8, but was a little wary of trying it on a APU. [03:51] JbPaladin, you may want to go bleeding edge and get 12.04 Beta 1. I installed it last night. Less buggy than the final days of 11.10 AMD64 so far. [03:54] I'll give it a shot. I am curious as to how it will get along with the newer AMD chips. === Evixion` is now known as Evixion === `mOOse` is now known as m00se === `mOOse` is now known as m00se === `mOOse` is now known as m00se === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [09:33] hey guys, my skype doesn't use the xfce theme :S how could i fix that [09:38] also my xchat constantly crashs when i try to join channels or connect to more servers, when i try to open new tabs or windows generaly [09:39] do you have any kde apps installed? [09:40] try running xchat from a terminal and seeing what that says [09:41] still crashes [09:42] doesn't say anything in terminal? [09:42] no, just starts normally [09:43] but when crashing [09:44] it freezes and if i wouldn't do anything it just stays freezed i close it with right click close and it says that the program is unresponsive [09:46] funny how [09:46] whoops [09:46] now it just disappeared.... [09:46] calico: do you have a lot of customisations in xchat - alerts/autojoins etc [09:47] I'd be inclined to rename .xchat2 to xchat2 and then see if it does the same [09:48] how do i do that hobgoblin [09:48] i have alerts turned on yes, but the problem was present even before that, but still it wasn't so aggressive [09:49] close xchat, in a terminal mv .xchat2 xchat - or if you'd rather just right click and rename in thunar - then restart xchat - it will be default then [09:50] also when xchat crashes on me I tend to find that I need to ghost my nick as it's still registered with freenode [09:51] it seems ok now [09:52] could i make my customisations again [09:52] safely [09:52] ok - then I would start to put them in - if it crashes with one - then remove it and start again with the remainder [09:53] no idea about skype though - don't use it [09:54] tnx [09:55] there's just one forum with same problem [09:55] http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/skype-doesnt-use-the-xfce-theme-865440/ [09:55] but it is slackware [09:55] is it the same for xubuntu or rather not... [09:56] not sure - I used to do this for qt stuff - http://blog.bodhizazen.net/linux/using-gtk-2-themes-with-qt-applications/ - but I'm not sure if xubuntu is using gtk2 or gtk3 now [10:03] Run the command in a terminal: [10:03] qtconfig-qt4 [10:03] Select "GTK+" from the "Select GUI Style" menu. [10:03] did that and restarted skype but no success [10:04] oh in the console i got QGtkStyle was unable to detect the current GTK+ theme. [10:04] that'll be why then [10:04] not going to be able to help - sorry [10:05] mousepad ~/.gtkrc-2.0 [10:05] put ''include "/usr/share/themes/greybird/gtk-2.0/gtkrc" '' there if you're using default theme [10:06] uh! i opened that program and made the gtk+ background grey, restarted skype and it is black [10:06] if you want to change theme you need to edit/rename that file, make a note somewhere [10:06] this is still quite acceptable tho! [10:07] i am using high contrast inverse? [10:08] include "/usr/share/themes/HighContrastInverse/gtk-2.0/gtkrc [10:10] k, just to make sure, the file was empty and i insterted the following: include "/usr/share/themes/HighContrastInverse/gtk-2.0/gtkrc" [10:10] is this correct [10:12] sounds about right [10:13] cool [10:13] thank you guys Sysi hobgoblin [10:13] np [10:13] thanks sysi - hobgoblin makes notes [10:13] welcome calico [10:29] hello , installing xubuntu , gives that error x86_64 : http://bitsy.me/img4dy - WTF? [10:35] that spammer should maybe be banned [10:36] spammer/bot, was at #xfce moment ago [10:50] afaik was klined [11:11] I just installed xubuntu, and it crashes on me because it has been changing the screen resolution, It works perfectly with "Try Xubuntu" [11:14] Could anyone please help me out with this ? [11:26] Wow.. this is tedious [11:26] Anyone awake :) ? [11:59] Yawn. [13:02] allo [13:02] is there sombody ? [13:04] about problem with xubuntu 11.10 and xmbc and plugin arte7, problem from gigolo i think, can i use samba and not gigolo ? [13:12] not used xbmc, sorry. I use mythtv [13:13] gigolo's just GUI for gvfs or something, not any need to use it [13:14] is there anything better for linux than me-tv?? it seems glitchy in the video... like my tv tuner works just fine perfect picture and reseption yet me-tv acts like it has poor signal. [13:15] starn: change the deinterlacing mode? [13:16] mongy: doesn't seem to help.. it's acting more like a signal issue.. but i know it's not. [13:16] I remember having to change the video output to xv as well [13:16] does me-tv have issues getting certain signal ranges? [13:17] never had a problem viewing channels. all I know is the defaults suck [13:17] mongy: i'll try the xv... what deinterlace do you use? [13:17] I think tv-time and the other are basically the same for me [13:17] there is none standard and tvtime. [13:18] i don't mind low quility but i dislike skipping.. haha [13:18] standard then [13:19] ok i changed to xv and it skiped at first but now it's running as smooth as other OS's.. thanks mongy i think ya fixed it :) [13:19] try mplayer [13:19] oh, ok [13:19] mongy: i don't know how to use mplayer for tv.. [13:20] yeah by default its using something old like XVideo [13:20] not that , argh, I forget [13:21] you 'll need to create a channels.conf to use it with mplayer [13:21] do you know your transmission name? [13:21] mongy: alright that shouldn't be hard?? seeing how i have only 6 stations? [13:21] only what me-tv says and other OS's tvtuner programs. [13:22] look in /usr/share/dvb/dvb-t/ [13:22] me-tv shows the frequency's in hz... and channel names :) [13:23] if you know which tower is closest, you can use use scan /usr/share/dvb/dvb-t/uk-Belmont -o zap | tee ~/.mplayer/channels.conf (mine being Belmont) [13:24] what about united states? [13:25] you'll want dvb-s then [13:25] or dvb-c [13:25] not sure, I'm not familiar with american tv [13:26] american is strictly digital. [13:28] vlc has an auto scanning feature.. but me-tv is better overall than mplayer/vlc [13:28] they don't have a nice channel list/EPG [13:29] mongy: yeah.. considering changing to xv stopped the skipping i think i'll stick with the saying "if it's not broken don't fix it" === tomreyn_ is now known as tomreyn [13:58] hello [13:58] anyone?

[15:32] baizon: try adding nomodeset [15:46] thanks [15:51] MeXTuX: its to do with the greeter-session config [16:16] Hey, just want to ask about adding noapic to the boot options.

[17:21] settings manager / session & startup its over there [17:22] uncheck it [17:33] vins_: that doesn't delete saved sessions and IIRC it doesn't work, you need to run "rm -rf ~/.cache/sessions" and should use tap in logout window [17:41] ok === xubuntu893 is now known as nabukadnezar43 === xGrind is now known as xGrind[off] [20:09] hi [20:09] someone can help me?

When I go to create the virtual disk it keeps freezing up. Any help is appreciated [20:45] sparky: making a dynamic or static disk? [20:45] static [20:48] any idea why it would stall out? [20:55] sparky: Encrypted home directory? [20:55] yes [20:58] I have the same issue. I created the disk file on an unencrypted area. I *think* it should work without stalling if you moved the file afterward; I've done so with one and haven't had trouble. [20:58] alright I'll give it a shot. Thanks [21:18] beata, have you filed a bug for that? [21:19] I ought to, yes. But I haven't. [21:19] i think that would help a lot [21:25] if I create a static about 8gig or more then my whole desktop stalls and apps go grey, but that's just a fail of linux in general. Tried a different scheduler same deal. Always been this way. [21:26] there is no "fail of linux in general". every bug is specific. [21:27] it's the same with anything that's using disk intensively. [21:27] tried various distros various filesystems. [21:27] probably, but those should probably have some nice then... [21:28] it's one of the first things I noticed coming from windows about 8-9 yrs ago when I used vmware and never saw anything like that. [21:42] Hi there! [21:42] @knome: on your website you wrote, "n addition to those who are testing the daily builds, we’d like to have some feedback on the usability of the color scheme" [21:44] I created a suite of coloured variations using your greybird theme [21:44] it works fine in xubuntu 12.04 beta1 [21:46] to my mind, we don't have a lot of themes working in gtk3 [21:46] is there any interest in new themes for 12.04? [21:56] I prefer darker themes. My screen is shiney and nice and light ones dont't look great. Zukitwo-Dark for overall appearance is ok for me. [22:11] Good Night! === moylan1 is now known as moylan
