[01:34] just installed xubuntu, wondering if gnutella is supported still? [01:34] What do you mean by "supported still"? [01:34] is the link from sourceforge worth getting [01:35] to run stable [01:35] That's a protocol, maybe a client too. [01:35] But you should find something in the repos, unless you know what you want/are doing. [01:35] repos [01:35] ? [01:35] !repos [01:35] The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/project/about-ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories [01:36] genii-around: Dangit! [01:36] !find gnutella [01:36] Found: gtk-gnutella [01:36] gtk-gnutella [01:36] * Unit193 goes off [01:36] !info gtk-gnutella | allie83 [01:36] allie83: gtk-gnutella (source: gtk-gnutella): shares files in a peer to peer network. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.97-2 (oneiric), package size 15988 kB, installed size 30760 kB [01:37] 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 [01:44] hey guys [01:45] i need you help with xubuntu-alternate and usb-key [01:46] i use the parameter "cdrom-detect/try-usb=true" on boot, and worked [01:47] but on tasksel, no install any package [01:51] please someone [01:59] facebook games are saying i need adobe flash 10 or greater, i have 11.2...how do i resolve this please? [02:12] i have success with a basic system install, but no with desktop [02:13] Type sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop [02:13] If you are at a terminal. [02:14] yes i have [02:15] can i install xubuntu-desktop package from a usb-stick [02:15] ? [02:16] i'm in alternate usb-stick [02:16] How did you make the stick? [02:17] unetbootin [02:18] and, i use the parameter "cdrom-detect/try-usb=true" on boot [02:18] version is xubuntu-alternate 11.10 [03:53] I walked around my problem [03:54] I created a local repository with the packages that were in the pen drive [03:54] 2 repositories were a main and the other universe and added due sources.lst [03:54] then simply ran an apt-get install xubuntu-desktop and resolved [03:54] Although this process should be transparent, it would be a bug? [03:55] thanks to all especially Unit193, the one who ventured to answer me ... [03:59] I'm having some weird issues with gftp [04:14] never mind... I don't know what the other ftp client did, but it didn't set the +x bit of the directory. [07:15] 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] Vermicelli: yes [07:15] baizon, please share with me? [07:16] Vermicelli, the xubuntu-desktop package is just a metapackage, it provides you nothing after you've installed it once [07:16] Vermicelli, this means it's okay to remove it [07:16] go software sources -> updates -> "When there are updates". [07:18] knome, thanks. [07:19] np [07:19] baizon, that is what I have set already. [07:19] thats why the update-manager is showing [07:19] There is no "never" option for those, unfortuantely. [07:19] it will be "fixed" in 12.04 [07:23] Thanks. Can I throw another problem out? [07:23] of course [07:25] 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. [07:27] The process does appear to be running. [07:27] run "rm -rf ~/.cache/sessions" and reloging, don't save session on logout [07:27] desktop is xfdesktop unless you're using nautilus [07:28] Sorry. Named the process from memory only; goofed up. [07:30] If someone would vouch for Sysi's solution (I'm leery of any rm -rf), I'd be off to try it. [07:31] removing old saved sessions is totally safe, you can use thunar as well [07:32] yup, removing ~/.cache is fine [07:32] Much appreciated. [07:34] http://xubuntu.org/news/the-countdown-is-on/ [07:34] Seems to've done the trick. Thanks, again, Sysi. [08:30] somebody know of a program that easily rename many file at one time? [08:31] Used a good one on that came with linuxmint before [08:35] thunar has bulk rename tool [08:36] ok [08:37] ah, nice. Thank you! [09:27] hello guys [09:28] can someone tell how te replace linux mint to xubuntu? i also have dualboot win7 [09:35] Simmons: well just make an install usb-stick, format the partition where you have linux mint and then install xubuntu on that [09:36] grub will stay? [09:36] with dual boot? [09:37] the gui installer will reinstall grub and add the appropriate provisions for booting windows [09:38] much the same way your mint install probaly did it originally [09:39] so I just choose Somethine else -> Format Mint partition and on this partition install xubuntu that's it? :) [09:40] yup [09:40] what about swap partion do I need to foramt that too ? [09:40] :D [09:41] the installer should do it all itself... [09:42] formatting the swap wont hurt. [10:58] Where could I find some sys requirements for xubuntu? [10:59] Atlantic777, what hardware do you have? [10:59] knome: I'm want to install it on a friends machine, 512 MiB RAM, single core AMD, probably 1.6 [11:00] 1.6 GHz, VGA is ATi 9250 or something [11:00] it will be slow but it should run okay [11:01] How much RAM is ok to run smothly? [11:02] 512, 256 might be enough, but webbrowsers easily take 200MB [11:02] yeah, I know... [12:21] Hi, just browsing. [12:22] hi hi [12:23] Hi Hi Hi, just installed xubuntu :) [12:38] hi, does anyone know where i can download xubuntu elementary icons? normal and dark ones [13:16] 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? [13:19] dv310p3r: if you use compiz you can use all it's features [13:19] and you can use compiz with xfce [13:20] Sysi, nice. I think I'm making my move soon then. Any known mulitple monitor issues with Xfce by chance? [13:21] may need a bit of setting up but nothing big [13:23] depends much on the GPU [13:24] 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. [13:27] Wow, Panels are really well done in XFCE no need for AWN or other dock app... a bit impressed so far. [13:27] one could take it that way. [13:28] anyone know of a good place to get themes for xfce [13:29] xfce-look.org is one, but i'm not sure how many of them support gtk3 even okayish [13:32] knome, thanks anyhow... it's a start... gonna make the move tonight. [13:32] good luck [14:01] why does ctrl+alt+t dont open a terminual in xubuntu? [14:02] martinphone: you can set an application shortcut for it, if you want. Apps > Settings > Settings Manager > Keyboard : Application Shortcuts [14:02] babble, why are this shortcuts not included by default as in ubuntu? [14:03] That's not a question I can answer for you, sorry. [14:04] they aren't considered to be needed, I think they're there by default in 12.04 [14:04] martinphone: For a hint of the future: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Roadmap/Specifications/Precise/DefaultShortcutKeys#Detailed_specification [14:08] 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] d property. [14:27] is there any command to get rid of all deleted apps in my menus? I mean I have to get rid of the symlinks [14:28] martinphone: the dead launcher is probably in /usr/share/applications [14:29] if not there, also try /usr/local/share/applications [14:29] babble, you mean, me getting rid of them one by one... [14:29] in any case, you'll need root priveliges to remove items down inside /usr [14:30] have you tried restarting your panel? they may actually be gone, and the menu hasn't quite updated yet [14:30] could be [14:30] try this: [14:30] alt-f2 [14:30] killall xfce4-panel && xfce4-panel [14:32] babble, am I logging out after executing that? DO I have to close all other opened processes? [14:32] ech, my mistake. [14:32] do them one at a time. [14:32] if you've killed your pane, do alt-f2 again [14:32] then: [14:32] xfce4-panel -r should work. [14:32] xfce4-panel [14:32] ah! [14:32] -r :) [14:32] I always forget it's got a reload option :) [14:33] I didnt do anything yet. doing separately killall xfce4-panel AND THEN xfce4-panel [14:33] Unit193's is better. [14:33] in your run dialog, just this: [14:33] xfce4-panel -r [14:33] do I have to close all other open apps? [14:33] no :) [14:33] before proceeding? [14:33] ok [14:33] no, stay logged in. [14:33] it'll be just fine [14:34] yes, it worked [14:34] check your menu [14:35] if the dead launchers really were deleted, that should have refreshed your menu [14:35] Some of them are gone, but others are still here [14:36] originally from ubuntu I migrated to xubuntu [14:36] I can't think of an easy way to automatically remove them all [14:36] no worries, in 3 weeks 12.04 is out [14:36] how many dead launchers are we talking about? five? 20? [14:36] hehe.... [14:36] like 70 all of them in the "other" category [14:37] if you have that many launchers still in there, are you sure this is for something that's been uninstalled? [14:37] now im with http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce [14:37] to try a pure xfce [14:37] babble, remember dddeeexxxtteerrr? [14:38] oh, good lord. [14:38] what on earth are you doing? [14:38] babble, getting a pure xfce [14:38] have fun [14:38] but dont worry too much, in 2 days ill get a hDD [14:38] and copy all impartant data there [14:44] 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? [14:45] or, do I have to ask this in the firefox channel instead? [14:46] martinphone: try Alt F11 [14:48] thx Sysi [14:53] this does not depend on firefox, but xubuntu, right? [15:01] 12.04 has a fullscreen window menu option and binding, which is nice. [15:56] what photo album app should I use? kphotoalbum? [15:56] fspot? [16:02] gthumb is decent, but all depends what you want it to do. [16:10] didnt saw it, comes by default [16:12] ugh, where has the visual bit gone from autoscroll in chrome. === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [16:59] why is canonical supporting Xubuntu when its main product is Ubuntu , just curious to know this [16:59] is Xubuntu a community project only or do people work on Xubuntu in Canonical as such ? [17:00] it's a community project [17:00] 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) [17:01] it's a recognised flavor, which means they're helping our community by providing development space and infrastructure to work on our project [17:02] I don't know why they do it business-wise, because they are nice? :) [17:14] 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. [17:15] easily, if it worked on ubuntu [17:15] 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] use arandr [17:15] i can apt-get that? [17:15] of course [17:16] cool, gonna test now. [17:21] Sysi, looks like that might do the trick. Thanks. [19:08] hello can someone help how to get back panel 1 I accidently removed ? [19:09] You actually removed it on purpose or it just disappeared? [19:09] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XubuntuPanels#One_Panel_Disappeared [19:09] I removed [19:09] it [19:10] i only have bottom dock [19:11] Should be able to remove ~/.config/xfce4/panel/ hit alt+f2 and run xfce4-panel -r [19:14] I need to remove ~/.config/xfce4/panel/? [19:14] that would get rid of all your customized settings [19:14] you can't "get back" a panel you deleted, but you can add a new one [19:15] whew...I was wondering what rock I had been under :) [19:15] go to Settings > Settings Panager > Panel [19:15] how to delete ~/.config/xfce4/panel/ this directory? [19:15] in terminal? [19:16] 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] I want original panel back I have fresh installiton of xubuntu :) [19:17] You can open a terminal and type rm -rv ~/.config/xfce4/panel/ [19:17] Then hit alt+F2 and type xfce4-panel -r [19:19] done but nothing happend [19:19] only icons dissaphered from bottom dock [19:20] cp -r /etc/xdg/xfce4/panel ~/.config/xfce4/ but it should have automagically pulled it in, it did for me that time... [19:21] ok i will try [19:23] i typed this and terminals just jump in new line [19:23] Try logging out and back in now, it copied the defaults back. [19:29] ok I'm back still the same problem [19:30] Could that be a cached session in .cache? [19:30] pkill xfce4-panel && rm -rv ~/.config/xfce4/panel/ && xfce4-panel & [19:31] ok will try here is the link how looks like now shrani.si/f/2S/uM/cLcBLw9/screenshot-04052012-0930.png [19:35] ok it killed bottom dock [19:35] do i need to log out again? [19:36] or I will just install xubuntu 1 more time :D [19:37] pkill xfce4-panel && rm -rv ~/.config/xfce4/panel/ && xfce4-panel & is one command and should have restarted the panel [19:38] nothing happend [19:38] [3] 1675 [2] Exit 1 [19:39] this is what I get when I typed in this [19:40] any panel showing? - it's hard to see from here [19:40] Unless somehow he's using a different panel, maybe ps aux |grep panel [19:40] ? [19:41] no, now im without panels [19:41] only icons on dekstop [19:41] will try logout [19:43] bottom panel is back like I show you before [19:43] im gonna just reinstall so don't bother :D [20:05] I have cleaned my laptop of all ubuntu, kubuntu and lubuntu packages aiming for a clean xfce installation, but instead of plymouth for both log in and out I get "ubuntu studio, linux for creative humenas" [20:05] where did that come from? [20:08] martinphone: did u install a fresh xubuntu? [20:09] muntiKubu_, no http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce [20:15] can you guys use parole with kernel 3.0.0.18? [20:15] it segfaults for me, am I the only one? [20:18] I think one of the M* nicks was having problems with it. [20:22] will xubuntu 12.04 fit into a cd? [20:22] Yep. [20:48] martinphone: thats the kernel bug [20:48] http://askubuntu.com/questions/119223/updating-to-3-0-0-18-generic-new-linux-kernel-ubuntu-carshed [20:52] http://torrent.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/oneiric/release/desktop/... 64 bits is amd64, right? [20:53] Basically, yes. [20:53] You can use 32 on a 64 machine though. [20:53] what do you mean basically? [20:54] It is, yep. [20:54] Unit193, my I ask which one you use? [20:54] 32. [20:54] ok [20:55] address sizes: 36 bits physical, 32 bits virtual I can't use 64. [20:55] i wish all torrents woudl be so fast as this one :) [20:55] were* [20:58] what will happen if my machine cannot support 64 bits? will it just not load? [20:59] Yep, but you can check first. [21:03] hello [21:04] I cannot mount usb sticks, when I try, file manager closes === vins is now known as v1Ns === `mOOse` is now known as m00se
