| MeXTuX | I'm starting with Xubuntu and want to customize a little my desktop. How can I make a backup??? so if I screw it up I'll can restore to its original state | 00:39 |
|---|---|---|
| Marzata | just copy your file to some other location | 00:45 |
| MeXTuX | What's the file name and where is it located?? | 00:49 |
| Marzata | all files in your home folder | 00:50 |
| Marzata | other idea would be to create just another user | 00:55 |
| holstein | or experiment on the live CD | 00:57 |
| MeXTuX | backup ~/.config/xfce4 ??? | 01:01 |
| holstein | backup the whole thing | 01:01 |
| holstein | all of ~/you | 01:01 |
| dajhorn | My window borders are one pixel, which makes them difficult to resize. How do I change the window border thickness in xfce4? | 01:27 |
| GridCube | change the theme you are using dajhorn | 01:28 |
| dajhorn | GridCube: I tried to do that after doing a Google search. All of the default Xubuntu themes are the same. | 01:29 |
| GridCube | in fact they are not | 01:30 |
| dajhorn | GridCube: I want to use Xubuntu in a HTPC. How do I get 5 or 10 pixel borders? | 01:30 |
| GridCube | http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/capturadepantalla-030312-223023.php | 01:30 |
| GridCube | this one its like 5px wide | 01:31 |
| GridCube | its not that pretty tho, tyrex its nice and has a wide border too | 01:32 |
| dajhorn | Bummer. Xfce4 can't change the border thickness except through a theme change. | 01:34 |
| GridCube | you might be able to manually edit the theme | 01:34 |
| GridCube | some of the other themes are nice tho | 01:35 |
| anachoret | for 12.04 beta 1 known issues, how is nm-connection-manager run? | 02:12 |
| Cyndar | is anyone around that might be able to give me some advice? it's in regards to forcing a wine window to use 16 bit color depth. after checking the man pages i can't find a setting for it. i've also tried switching X to use 16bpp by default but i can't find xorg.conf in the usual places i'd go to edit it. | 02:27 |
| Cyndar | using xbuntu 11.10 and wine 1.3 | 02:28 |
| holstein | anachoret: i would check #ubuntu+1 | 02:43 |
| holstein | Cyndar: whats the issue?.. i wouldnt think that would be something you should need to bother with.. i would refer to the application page at wineHQ *if* there is one | 02:44 |
| Cyndar | holstein: it's a certain game that can only run in 16bpp | 02:45 |
| GridCube | Cyndar, you should check on #wine | 02:46 |
| Cyndar | GridCube: it's invite only at the moment | 02:47 |
| GridCube | no its not | 02:47 |
| Cyndar | Cannot join #wine (Channel is invite only). | 02:47 |
| anachoret | holstein: thanks | 02:47 |
| GridCube | oh, yes, sorry my mistake Cyndar, its #winehq | 02:48 |
| Cyndar | ah, got it, thanks | 02:48 |
| Paschalis89 | is there any tutorial how to install java on xubuntu? | 02:50 |
| anachoret | Paschalis89: other than OpenJDK? | 02:52 |
| Cyndar | Paschalis89: i'd imagine the easiest way would be to open the ubuntu software center and search for jave | 02:53 |
| Cyndar | *java | 02:53 |
| Paschalis89 | yes.. dont want the openJDK | 02:53 |
| anachoret | oracle has self-extractors and rpms | 02:55 |
| Paschalis89 | found a tutorial, with 3 commands and it seems to work.. | 02:59 |
| Paschalis89 | thank you anyways! | 03:01 |
| anachoret | what requires distribution other than openjdk? | 03:02 |
| Paschalis89 | got some problems with openJdk.. | 03:06 |

| 92AAAE1A4 | Hm. Admittedly I haven't had any problems, but I haven't really *used* it much either. I'm curious what the particular problems are. | 03:08 |
| ztag100 | Is there a way to update xubuntu to the new beta? or do I need to do a clean install? | 03:39 |
| holstein | ztag100: i would check in #ubuntu+1 ... i mean, you *can* do what you like.. should you is the question | 03:40 |

| GridCube | in any case david_j_r using tab to autocomplete the name on the terminal would have teached you that :P | 15:18 |
| david_j_r | Except I did "nm*" and got nothing | 15:20 |
| david_j_r | Also, just launched "nm-connection-editor" and got three GTK-warning/error messages | 15:20 |
| GridCube | mmm, you wrote nm, then press tab twice, and got nothing? | 15:20 |
| david_j_r | and no network manager in the systray :( | 15:20 |
| GridCube | yeah, thats a bug | 15:21 |
| kvarley | How can I change/remove the "Web Browser" and "Mail Reader" entries in the menu? | 15:21 |
| david_j_r | GridCube: no, but just tried nm<tab><tab> and get 9 returns | 15:21 |
| david_j_r | sorry - 8 ;) | 15:21 |

| david_j_r | "nm-applet" appears in Task Manager, but I cannot see it anywhere. | 15:22 |
| GridCube | kvarley, you could try using alacarte, don't know if it does what you need, remember to install alacarte with the --no-install-recommnds flag, because else it would pull half unity/gnome aswell | 15:22 |

| aranea | I have a small problem with XFCE's terminal: The setting 'Advanced/Compatibility/Backspace key' generates is set to 'Auto-detect'. Now, when I use screen inside such a terminal, non-readline programs (e.g mail) don't recognise the use of the backspace key, but print Ctrl+H instead. Surely, that's no problem, I'm just interested if it leads to other problems if I modify this setting. | 15:26 |

| jackotheshadow | So, I've downloaded Avast as a .rpm, but when I double click on it, it opens with archive manager and doesn't seem to actually install anythign | 17:21 |
| jackotheshadow | where/what is software center/ | 17:22 |
| baizon | why do you download avast | 17:23 |
| baizon | ubuntu doesnt use rpm | 17:23 |
| baizon | only deb | 17:23 |

| baizon | jackotheshadow: http://desktoplinuxreviews.com/2010/05/10/xubuntu-linux-10-04/softwarecenter-2/ | 17:24 |
| baizon | thats the software center | 17:25 |
| baizon | you can there easily install software | 17:25 |
| jackotheshadow | So, I downloaded the .deb for Avast, and opened it with Software Center, but I'm getting the error "wrong architecture 'i386'". I've browsed around some, and seem to be getting that with everything I try to install with software center. | 17:34 |

| darkurza | i have a question. i recently just installed xubuntu on my comp | 19:22 |
| darkurza | it came with firefox | 19:22 |
| darkurza | half the videos on youtube i cant watch because flash is not installed but it is by default | 19:22 |
| darkurza | anyone experience that before | 19:23 |
| magerquark | try: Nokia 6 | 19:24 |
| pleia2 | darkurza: your comment is a bit confusing, is flash installed or not? | 19:24 |
| darkurza | it is | 19:25 |
| darkurza | well it was installed by default | 19:25 |
| darkurza | but youtube didnt pick it up so i installed it again | 19:25 |
| darkurza | thats when it told me that it's already installed | 19:25 |
| magerquark | sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 19:25 |
| darkurza | i ddi it anyways | 19:25 |
| magerquark | did you install the restricted extras? | 19:25 |
| darkurza | no | 19:25 |
| darkurza | but am doing it now | 19:26 |
| darkurza | ive been having other pressing issues | 19:26 |
| darkurza | like the fact that my EEE PC is too new and there are no drivers for this yet | 19:26 |
| darkurza | so im stuck with 800x600 on a 1024x600 native | 19:26 |
| darkurza | i also live in a uni residence so my internet didnt work while i had no OS on my comp | 19:26 |
| darkurza | i see this windows lookalike in my terminal | 19:28 |
| darkurza | cant proceed | 19:28 |
| darkurza | it's to install the tff font or something | 19:28 |
| magerquark | you can also use the ubuntu software center | 19:28 |
| magerquark | search for "ubuntu restricted extras" | 19:29 |
| darkurza | lemme try | 19:29 |
| darkurza | another problem that seems like a noob problem | 19:31 |
| darkurza | shockwave flash came with it | 19:31 |
| darkurza | when i have it on, my youtube videos lag like mad | 19:32 |
| darkurza | but when i take it off, it's fine although at the beginning of the videos, it tells me it cant detect a flash plugin | 19:32 |
| darkurza | it plays the video nonetheless | 19:32 |
| darkurza | same problem | 19:35 |
| darkurza | i clicked install xubuntu restricted extras | 19:35 |
| darkurza | the flash box has no check mark | 19:36 |
| darkurza | so i check it | 19:36 |
| darkurza | install it | 19:36 |
| darkurza | now when i try watching videos, it still says i need flash 9.0 or higher? | 19:36 |
| magerquark | strange | 19:36 |
| darkurza | so i try installing from the flash website but that doesn't work either | 19:36 |
| darkurza | software center wont let me install the xubuntu restricted extras now | 19:37 |
| darkurza | thats why the installation went fast | 19:37 |
| magerquark | do you have a standard xubuntu installation? | 19:38 |
| darkurza | yes | 19:38 |
| magerquark | strange# | 19:39 |
| darkurza | im getting sick of ubuntu | 19:39 |
| darkurza | the more shit they upgrade every six months, the more bugs there are and the less time they have to really focus on fixing things | 19:39 |
| magerquark | darkurza, perhaps you should use the LTS-versions | 19:40 |
| darkurza | i did that on my old laptop | 19:40 |
| darkurza | worked fine for a while | 19:40 |
| darkurza | ill brb | 19:41 |
| GridCube | darkurza, you use firefox? | 19:41 |
| darkurza | cant start up synaptic | 19:41 |
| darkurza | yeah | 19:41 |
| darkurza | why | 19:42 |
| GridCube | install flash-aid plugin | 19:42 |
| darkurza | aid or add? | 19:42 |
| GridCube | aid | 19:42 |
| darkurza | ok | 19:42 |
| darkurza | is that the package name? | 19:43 |
| darkurza | im restarting my comp brb | 19:44 |
| darkurza | just restarted but now my synaptic wont start up... | 19:47 |
| well_laid_lawn | darkurza: any errors? | 19:53 |
| darkurza | yeah | 19:53 |
| darkurza | but i fixed it | 19:53 |
| darkurza | now i can install packages | 19:53 |
| darkurza | what i dont understand is why ubuntu restricted extras will throw a windows console lookalike screen at me with no way of proceeding or going back | 19:54 |
| darkurza | ok so i installed the restricted extras | 19:55 |
| darkurza | still says i need a flash player 9.0 or higher | 19:55 |
| GridCube | darkurza, on firefox, go to the about:addons page, and search for flash-aid addon | 19:57 |
| darkurza | ok running the wizard | 19:59 |
| darkurza | youtube still says i need to install a flash player | 20:01 |
| darkurza | and when i try to, it says failed | 20:01 |
| darkurza | no errors | 20:01 |
| GridCube | thats weird darkurza you are having some other problem somewhere | 20:02 |
| darkurza | ok now it works | 20:02 |
| darkurza | i used the aid plugin to just download a stable release | 20:02 |
| GridCube | thats the best one | 20:03 |

| bigshum | hola | 20:31 |
| GridCube | hola bigshum, este canal es en ingles, para ayuda en español entra a #ubuntu-es | 20:32 |
| GridCube | :D | 20:32 |
| bigshum | yo soy Ingles :D | 20:32 |
| bigshum | I just like to confuse everyone | 20:32 |
| GridCube | :P oh okay | 20:32 |
| bigshum | your concern is duly noted though, you gain points ;) | 20:33 |
| bigshum | I'm, er, having an issue with a powerpc xubuntu install on a G3 iMac | 20:34 |
| bigshum | booted off the minimal cd | 20:34 |
| bigshum | it's saying 'no disk drive was detected. If you know the name of the driver….' etc etc | 20:34 |
| bigshum | is it referring to my optical drive or my hdd? | 20:35 |
| bigshum | or is there an installation channel I should ask in? | 20:35 |
| GridCube | bigshum, this is the place to ask, but i dont know the answer you should wait for someone smarter to come | 20:43 |
| bigshum | ha ha cool | 20:43 |
| bigshum | have asked in the ubuntu room too | 20:44 |
| GridCube | also google your error exactly | 20:44 |
| bigshum | gathering from their conversation they seem to be quite smart | 20:44 |
| bigshum | yea my google-fu is failing me | 20:44 |
| bigshum | i gather it's the hdd | 20:47 |
| bigshum | but i did a debian install on it earlier so it should be ok.. | 20:47 |
| ChristopherNg | hello does anyone know how i can do a sitemap/sitesearch via the command line? are there any apps that can do it? | 20:55 |
| GridCube | a search? | 20:57 |
| c3l | ChristopherNg: what do you mean by sitesearch? | 20:57 |
| ChristopherNg | c3l: basically im trying to find the email addresses of people who have thenameofdifferentpeople@thewebsite.com | 21:10 |
| ChristopherNg | im trying to see if there is a tool that will find all email addresses for that website and give me a list | 21:11 |
| TheSheep | ChristopherNg: that is not possible | 21:11 |
| ChristopherNg | there must be some way | 21:11 |
| TheSheep | ChristopherNg: even the mail servers are configured in such a way as to not hint if the addres is correct | 21:12 |
| TheSheep | s/if/whether | 21:12 |
| TheSheep | that is because the spammers were using that to collect lists of addresses to spam | 21:12 |

| nmittal | where is the disk utility tool on xubuntu.. ? | 23:07 |
| GridCube | disk utility? like gparted? nmittal ? | 23:13 |
| GridCube | if its that you need to install it, its on the livecd but not on the final desktop | 23:14 |
| nmittal | not gparted.. in the regular install of Ubuntu there is "Disk Utility" | 23:16 |
| nmittal | GridCube, i have already installed XUbuntu and am not trying to setup RAID.. can i not do it on? do I have to do it during install? | 23:17 |
| GridCube | i don't know what that means | 23:17 |
| nmittal | never mind.. do you know about the RAID? | 23:17 |
| GridCube | nmittal, sorry :/ i don't understand your problem | 23:17 |
| GridCube | i've heard of it but never setted it up | 23:18 |
| GridCube | !raid | 23:18 |
| ubottu | Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 23:18 |
| nmittal | ok thanks | 23:18 |
| chelz | disk utility is a lightweight tool that show disk usage and i think lets you format partitions and not really anything else | 23:29 |
| nmittal | chelz, yeah.. i am trying to setup raid after installing xubuntu.. is it possible or do I have to reinstall | 23:29 |
| GridCube | nmittal, install gparted | 23:30 |
| nmittal | GridCube, i just did.. no option to setup RAID | 23:30 |
| GridCube | doesnt the links ubottu posted tell you how to? | 23:31 |
| nmittal | GridCube, they are dated.. | 23:31 |
| chelz | fyi Disk Utility is aka Palimpsest Disk Utility. package is gnome-disk-utility and it depends on gnome | 23:32 |
| chelz | or at least libgtk2.0-0 | 23:32 |
| nmittal | GridCube, i was hoping there would be a GUI based tool.. i dont want to mess up with a command line way | 23:32 |
| chelz | nmittal: things are best done in the terminal sometimes | 23:33 |
| nmittal | chelz, i was afraid you woudl say that :! | 23:33 |
