| allie83 | just installed xubuntu, wondering if gnutella is supported still? | 01:34 |
|---|---|---|
| Unit193 | What do you mean by "supported still"? | 01:34 |
| allie83 | is the link from sourceforge worth getting | 01:34 |
| allie83 | to run stable | 01:35 |
| Unit193 | That's a protocol, maybe a client too. | 01:35 |
| Unit193 | But you should find something in the repos, unless you know what you want/are doing. | 01:35 |
| allie83 | repos | 01:35 |

| allie83 | i know what it is, have used it on 9.04 and ubuntu 10.04 but wasn't supported in 11.10...hated unity so have switched to xububtu, just getting it up and running | 01:37 |
| lunaticus | hey guys | 01:44 |
| lunaticus | i need you help with xubuntu-alternate and usb-key | 01:45 |
| lunaticus | i use the parameter "cdrom-detect/try-usb=true" on boot, and worked | 01:46 |
| lunaticus | but on tasksel, no install any package | 01:47 |
| lunaticus | please someone | 01:51 |
| allie83 | facebook games are saying i need adobe flash 10 or greater, i have 11.2...how do i resolve this please? | 01:59 |
| lunaticus | i have success with a basic system install, but no with desktop | 02:12 |
| Unit193 | Type sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 02:13 |
| Unit193 | If you are at a terminal. | 02:13 |
| lunaticus | yes i have | 02:14 |
| lunaticus | can i install xubuntu-desktop package from a usb-stick | 02:15 |
| lunaticus | ? | 02:15 |
| lunaticus | i'm in alternate usb-stick | 02:16 |
| Unit193 | How did you make the stick? | 02:16 |
| lunaticus | unetbootin | 02:17 |
| lunaticus | and, i use the parameter "cdrom-detect/try-usb=true" on boot | 02:18 |
| lunaticus | version is xubuntu-alternate 11.10 | 02:18 |
| lunaticus | I walked around my problem | 03:53 |
| lunaticus | I created a local repository with the packages that were in the pen drive | 03:54 |
| lunaticus | 2 repositories were a main and the other universe and added due sources.lst | 03:54 |
| lunaticus | then simply ran an apt-get install xubuntu-desktop and resolved | 03:54 |
| lunaticus | Although this process should be transparent, it would be a bug? | 03:54 |
| lunaticus | thanks to all especially Unit193, the one who ventured to answer me ... | 03:55 |
| k_sze | I'm having some weird issues with gftp | 03:59 |
| k_sze | never mind... I don't know what the other ftp client did, but it didn't set the +x bit of the directory. | 04:14 |
| Vermicelli | Every time I run apt-get upgrade, update-manager also starts. I can't find a way to disable it, and I can't uninstall it without also taking xubuntu-desktop. Any ideas? | 07:15 |
| baizon | Vermicelli: yes | 07:15 |
| Vermicelli | baizon, please share with me? | 07:15 |
| knome | Vermicelli, the xubuntu-desktop package is just a metapackage, it provides you nothing after you've installed it once | 07:16 |
| knome | Vermicelli, this means it's okay to remove it | 07:16 |
| baizon | go software sources -> updates -> "When there are <security / other> updates". | 07:16 |
| Vermicelli | knome, thanks. | 07:18 |
| knome | np | 07:19 |
| Vermicelli | baizon, that is what I have set already. | 07:19 |
| baizon | thats why the update-manager is showing | 07:19 |
| Vermicelli | There is no "never" option for those, unfortuantely. | 07:19 |
| baizon | it will be "fixed" in 12.04 | 07:19 |
| Vermicelli | Thanks. Can I throw another problem out? | 07:23 |
| baizon | of course | 07:23 |
| Vermicelli | SOmething buggy happened recently, where it looks like xfce4-desktop isn't working properly. I had lost my trash can icon, other icons had changed theme/appearance, my wallpaper disappeared, and whenever I log in, my userhome folder opens. I've tried manually restarting xfce4-desktop, but to no avail. I've been able to set a wallpaper through firefox only, not through normal settings. | 07:25 |
| Vermicelli | The process does appear to be running. | 07:27 |
| Sysi | run "rm -rf ~/.cache/sessions" and reloging, don't save session on logout | 07:27 |
| Sysi | desktop is xfdesktop unless you're using nautilus | 07:27 |
| Vermicelli | Sorry. Named the process from memory only; goofed up. | 07:28 |
| Vermicelli | If someone would vouch for Sysi's solution (I'm leery of any rm -rf), I'd be off to try it. | 07:30 |
| Sysi | removing old saved sessions is totally safe, you can use thunar as well | 07:31 |
| knome | yup, removing ~/.cache is fine | 07:32 |
| Vermicelli | Much appreciated. | 07:32 |
| knome | http://xubuntu.org/news/the-countdown-is-on/ | 07:34 |
| Vermicelli | Seems to've done the trick. Thanks, again, Sysi. | 07:34 |
| david_ | somebody know of a program that easily rename many file at one time? | 08:30 |
| david_ | Used a good one on that came with linuxmint before | 08:31 |
| Sysi | thunar has bulk rename tool | 08:35 |
| david_ | ok | 08:36 |
| david_ | ah, nice. Thank you! | 08:37 |
| Simmons | hello guys | 09:27 |
| Simmons | can someone tell how te replace linux mint to xubuntu? i also have dualboot win7 | 09:28 |
| ochosi | Simmons: well just make an install usb-stick, format the partition where you have linux mint and then install xubuntu on that | 09:35 |
| Simmons | grub will stay? | 09:36 |
| Simmons | with dual boot? | 09:36 |
| sk1tz0 | the gui installer will reinstall grub and add the appropriate provisions for booting windows | 09:37 |
| sk1tz0 | much the same way your mint install probaly did it originally | 09:38 |
| Simmons | so I just choose Somethine else -> Format Mint partition and on this partition install xubuntu that's it? :) | 09:39 |
| sk1tz0 | yup | 09:40 |
| Simmons | what about swap partion do I need to foramt that too ? | 09:40 |
| Simmons | :D | 09:40 |
| sk1tz0 | the installer should do it all itself... | 09:41 |
| sk1tz0 | formatting the swap wont hurt. | 09:42 |
| Atlantic777 | Where could I find some sys requirements for xubuntu? | 10:58 |
| knome | Atlantic777, what hardware do you have? | 10:59 |
| Atlantic777 | knome: I'm want to install it on a friends machine, 512 MiB RAM, single core AMD, probably 1.6 | 10:59 |
| Atlantic777 | 1.6 GHz, VGA is ATi 9250 or something | 11:00 |
| Sysi | it will be slow but it should run okay | 11:00 |
| Atlantic777 | How much RAM is ok to run smothly? | 11:01 |
| Sysi | 512, 256 might be enough, but webbrowsers easily take 200MB | 11:02 |
| Atlantic777 | yeah, I know... | 11:02 |
| atario | Hi, just browsing. | 12:21 |
| baizon | hi hi | 12:22 |
| atario | Hi Hi Hi, just installed xubuntu :) | 12:23 |
| nabukadnezar43 | hi, does anyone know where i can download xubuntu elementary icons? normal and dark ones | 12:38 |
| dv310p3r | morning, can I use compiz wobbly windows and rotate cube in xfce? I can't stand unity and gnome 3, i am looking for new desktop? | 13:16 |
| Sysi | dv310p3r: if you use compiz you can use all it's features | 13:19 |
| Sysi | and you can use compiz with xfce | 13:19 |
| dv310p3r | Sysi, nice. I think I'm making my move soon then. Any known mulitple monitor issues with Xfce by chance? | 13:20 |
| Sysi | may need a bit of setting up but nothing big | 13:21 |
| knome | depends much on the GPU | 13:23 |
| dv310p3r | So it's basically a good old desktop not forcing me to pretend I'm using a tablet that has a nice new linux kernel and that I can use the way I've been using Gnome 2 for years now? -- Sorry still a bit sour about the new Ubuntu direction. | 13:24 |
| dv310p3r | Wow, Panels are really well done in XFCE no need for AWN or other dock app... a bit impressed so far. | 13:27 |
| knome | one could take it that way. | 13:27 |
| dv310p3r | anyone know of a good place to get themes for xfce | 13:28 |
| knome | xfce-look.org is one, but i'm not sure how many of them support gtk3 even okayish | 13:29 |
| dv310p3r | knome, thanks anyhow... it's a start... gonna make the move tonight. | 13:32 |
| knome | good luck | 13:32 |
| martinphone | why does ctrl+alt+t dont open a terminual in xubuntu? | 14:01 |
| babble | martinphone: you can set an application shortcut for it, if you want. Apps > Settings > Settings Manager > Keyboard : Application Shortcuts | 14:02 |
| martinphone | babble, why are this shortcuts not included by default as in ubuntu? | 14:02 |
| babble | That's not a question I can answer for you, sorry. | 14:03 |
| Sysi | they aren't considered to be needed, I think they're there by default in 12.04 | 14:04 |
| drc | martinphone: For a hint of the future: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Roadmap/Specifications/Precise/DefaultShortcutKeys#Detailed_specification | 14:04 |
| babble | is there an easy way to restart xfconfd that won't cause me to fallback to the default gtk2 appearance which can't be changed? I'm using xfconf-query to change the active-soundcard property in xfce4-mixer when I plug or unplug a USB headset (so that volume keys, and the volume control on the headset will work), but occasionally pulseaudio hangs when hotplugging the headset -- if I kill and restart pulseaudio, my xfconf-query no longer switches the active-car | 14:08 |
| babble | d property. | 14:08 |
| martinphone | is there any command to get rid of all deleted apps in my menus? I mean I have to get rid of the symlinks | 14:27 |
| babble | martinphone: the dead launcher is probably in /usr/share/applications | 14:28 |
| babble | if not there, also try /usr/local/share/applications | 14:29 |
| martinphone | babble, you mean, me getting rid of them one by one... | 14:29 |
| babble | in any case, you'll need root priveliges to remove items down inside /usr | 14:29 |
| babble | have you tried restarting your panel? they may actually be gone, and the menu hasn't quite updated yet | 14:30 |
| martinphone | could be | 14:30 |
| babble | try this: | 14:30 |
| babble | alt-f2 | 14:30 |
| babble | killall xfce4-panel && xfce4-panel | 14:30 |
| martinphone | babble, am I logging out after executing that? DO I have to close all other opened processes? | 14:32 |
| babble | ech, my mistake. | 14:32 |
| babble | do them one at a time. | 14:32 |
| babble | if you've killed your pane, do alt-f2 again | 14:32 |
| babble | then: | 14:32 |
| Unit193 | xfce4-panel -r should work. | 14:32 |
| babble | xfce4-panel | 14:32 |
| babble | ah! | 14:32 |
| babble | -r :) | 14:32 |
| babble | I always forget it's got a reload option :) | 14:32 |
| martinphone | I didnt do anything yet. doing separately killall xfce4-panel AND THEN xfce4-panel | 14:33 |
| babble | Unit193's is better. | 14:33 |
| babble | in your run dialog, just this: | 14:33 |
| babble | xfce4-panel -r | 14:33 |
| martinphone | do I have to close all other open apps? | 14:33 |
| babble | no :) | 14:33 |
| martinphone | before proceeding? | 14:33 |
| martinphone | ok | 14:33 |
| babble | no, stay logged in. | 14:33 |
| babble | it'll be just fine | 14:33 |
| martinphone | yes, it worked | 14:34 |
| babble | check your menu | 14:34 |
| babble | if the dead launchers really were deleted, that should have refreshed your menu | 14:35 |
| martinphone | Some of them are gone, but others are still here | 14:35 |
| martinphone | originally from ubuntu I migrated to xubuntu | 14:36 |
| babble | I can't think of an easy way to automatically remove them all | 14:36 |
| martinphone | no worries, in 3 weeks 12.04 is out | 14:36 |
| babble | how many dead launchers are we talking about? five? 20? | 14:36 |
| martinphone | hehe.... | 14:36 |
| martinphone | like 70 all of them in the "other" category | 14:36 |
| babble | if you have that many launchers still in there, are you sure this is for something that's been uninstalled? | 14:37 |
| martinphone | now im with http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce | 14:37 |
| martinphone | to try a pure xfce | 14:37 |
| martinphone | babble, remember dddeeexxxtteerrr? | 14:37 |
| babble | oh, good lord. | 14:38 |
| babble | what on earth are you doing? | 14:38 |
| martinphone | babble, getting a pure xfce | 14:38 |
| babble | have fun | 14:38 |
| martinphone | but dont worry too much, in 2 days ill get a hDD | 14:38 |
| martinphone | and copy all impartant data there | 14:38 |
| martinphone | with firefox, is there any way I can see the screen like when you press f11, but with the "file edit view bookmarks..." line included? | 14:44 |
| martinphone | or, do I have to ask this in the firefox channel instead? | 14:45 |
| Sysi | martinphone: try Alt F11 | 14:46 |
| martinphone | thx Sysi | 14:48 |
| martinphone | this does not depend on firefox, but xubuntu, right? | 14:53 |
| mongy | 12.04 has a fullscreen window menu option and binding, which is nice. | 15:01 |
| martinphone | what photo album app should I use? kphotoalbum? | 15:56 |
| martinphone | fspot? | 15:56 |
| mongy | gthumb is decent, but all depends what you want it to do. | 16:02 |
| martinphone | didnt saw it, comes by default | 16:10 |
| mongy | ugh, where has the visual bit gone from autoscroll in chrome. | 16:12 |

| G__81 | why is canonical supporting Xubuntu when its main product is Ubuntu , just curious to know this | 16:59 |
| G__81 | is Xubuntu a community project only or do people work on Xubuntu in Canonical as such ? | 16:59 |
| pleia2 | it's a community project | 17:00 |
| pleia2 | anyone working on it who happens to work at Canonical is doing Xubuntu work in their free time (I can only think of one person though) | 17:00 |
| pleia2 | it's a recognised flavor, which means they're helping our community by providing development space and infrastructure to work on our project | 17:01 |
| pleia2 | I don't know why they do it business-wise, because they are nice? :) | 17:02 |
| dv310p3r | I'm almost ready to make the switch from Ubuntu to Xubuntu. One big issue I have a question about is dual monitors. I have a dual monitor setup with my laptop where I have my external monitor above my laptop monitor. So I need to be able to set up like this. Is this possible. | 17:14 |
| Sysi | easily, if it worked on ubuntu | 17:15 |
| dv310p3r | I ask because in running Xubuntu in my VM I don't see way to position the monitors like I do in Ubuntu 10.10's display settings. | 17:15 |
| Sysi | use arandr | 17:15 |
| dv310p3r | i can apt-get that? | 17:15 |
| Sysi | of course | 17:15 |
| dv310p3r | cool, gonna test now. | 17:16 |
| dv310p3r | Sysi, looks like that might do the trick. Thanks. | 17:21 |
| Mordy | hello can someone help how to get back panel 1 I accidently removed ? | 19:08 |
| drc | You actually removed it on purpose or it just disappeared? | 19:09 |
| Unit193 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XubuntuPanels#One_Panel_Disappeared | 19:09 |
| Mordy | I removed | 19:09 |
| Mordy | it | 19:09 |
| Mordy | i only have bottom dock | 19:10 |
| Unit193 | Should be able to remove ~/.config/xfce4/panel/ hit alt+f2 and run xfce4-panel -r | 19:11 |
| Mordy | I need to remove ~/.config/xfce4/panel/? | 19:14 |
| pleia2 | that would get rid of all your customized settings | 19:14 |
| pleia2 | you can't "get back" a panel you deleted, but you can add a new one | 19:14 |
| drc | whew...I was wondering what rock I had been under :) | 19:15 |
| pleia2 | go to Settings > Settings Panager > Panel | 19:15 |
| Mordy | how to delete ~/.config/xfce4/panel/ this directory? | 19:15 |
| Mordy | in terminal? | 19:15 |
| Unit193 | Mordy: Do you want to reset your panel config (which will get your panel back), or just add the panel back (which will save your other changes to panels)? | 19:16 |
| Mordy | I want original panel back I have fresh installiton of xubuntu :) | 19:16 |
| Unit193 | You can open a terminal and type rm -rv ~/.config/xfce4/panel/ | 19:17 |
| Unit193 | Then hit alt+F2 and type xfce4-panel -r | 19:17 |
| Mordy | done but nothing happend | 19:19 |
| Mordy | only icons dissaphered from bottom dock | 19:19 |
| Unit193 | cp -r /etc/xdg/xfce4/panel ~/.config/xfce4/ but it should have automagically pulled it in, it did for me that time... | 19:20 |
| Mordy | ok i will try | 19:21 |
| Mordy | i typed this and terminals just jump in new line | 19:23 |
| Unit193 | Try logging out and back in now, it copied the defaults back. | 19:23 |
| Mordy | ok I'm back still the same problem | 19:29 |
| Unit193 | Could that be a cached session in .cache? | 19:30 |
| well_laid_lawn | pkill xfce4-panel && rm -rv ~/.config/xfce4/panel/ && xfce4-panel & | 19:30 |
| Mordy | ok will try here is the link how looks like now shrani.si/f/2S/uM/cLcBLw9/screenshot-04052012-0930.png | 19:31 |
| Mordy | ok it killed bottom dock | 19:35 |
| Mordy | do i need to log out again? | 19:35 |
| Mordy | or I will just install xubuntu 1 more time :D | 19:36 |
| well_laid_lawn | pkill xfce4-panel && rm -rv ~/.config/xfce4/panel/ && xfce4-panel & is one command and should have restarted the panel | 19:37 |
| Mordy | nothing happend | 19:38 |
| Mordy | [3] 1675 [2] Exit 1 | 19:38 |
| Mordy | this is what I get when I typed in this | 19:39 |
| well_laid_lawn | any panel showing? - it's hard to see from here | 19:40 |
| Unit193 | Unless somehow he's using a different panel, maybe ps aux |grep panel | 19:40 |
| Unit193 | ? | 19:40 |
| Mordy | no, now im without panels | 19:41 |
| Mordy | only icons on dekstop | 19:41 |
| Mordy | will try logout | 19:41 |
| Mordy__ | bottom panel is back like I show you before | 19:43 |
| Mordy__ | im gonna just reinstall so don't bother :D | 19:43 |
