| xubuntu395 | yup yup | 02:45 |
| Unit193 | !wine | | 02:45 |

| xubuntu395 | ahhh, WINE | 02:46 |
| xubuntu395 | is there another option? | 02:46 |
| bazhang | yes | 02:46 |
| xubuntu395 | is there another way aside from using wine | 02:48 |
| bazhang | I just said yes | 02:50 |
| xubuntu395 | how | 02:51 |
| bazhang | virtualbox | 02:51 |

| kim_ | hi | 08:35 |
| kim_ | I have problems with the new intalltion of xubuntu 12.04, the CPU-Temp is too high,... 58° but there is no cpu load over 2% (htop) | 08:38 |
| kim_ | echo -e '\x6d\x6f\x6f' | xargs apt-get , did not help,.. :(, any idea how to solve this prob ? | 08:39 |
| well_laid_lawn | what are you using to find out the temp ? | 08:40 |
| kim_ | sensors | 08:40 |
| kim_ | the fan is working hard | 08:41 |
| well_laid_lawn | kim_: what sort of cpu is it ? | 08:44 |
| kim_ | arrandale i5-460m | 08:45 |
| well_laid_lawn | that should be between 35-50 C afaik - maybe someone in #ubuntu+1 will have a clue | 08:46 |
| well_laid_lawn | about the differences with the newer kernel | 08:46 |
| kim_ | okay thx, | 08:47 |
| mcdonc | is there a widget for fan speed / cpu temp in xcfe? | 11:52 |
| ochosi | mcdonc: not by default, and not xfce specific. | 11:56 |
| mcdonc | thanks.. i'll ask another q.. does the default 12.04 configuration support xinerama (two monitor spread)? clicking around seems to let me activate or deactivate monitors but no way to form a single desktop out of 2 of them. | 11:58 |
| ablomen | mcdonc, you can use arandr, it is available in the ubuntu software center | 11:59 |
| mcdonc | great | 11:59 |
| babble | you can get cpu temps in the sensors applet in xfce, if you install lm-sensors, and run the sensors-detect script to enable sensor modules your motherboard provides which may be compatible with lm-sensors | 12:02 |
| babble | toolate | 12:03 |
| babble | mcdonc: if you install xfce4-goodies, you can enable cpu temperature sensors (probably) in the Sensor Viewer applet, with a couple more steps | 12:13 |
| ardian | Hi how can I get Xubuntu Beta 2 ? 12.04 | 12:17 |

| ardian | babble, thank you. | 12:18 |

| recon_tv | hi all, got a web cam that wont work in xubuntu , it's working in my ubuntu 10.04 lts though, cant remember if i installed anything on the 10.04 rig . any suggestions? | 14:46 |

| LentzS | I need help setting up my printer. It is an HP 2200 and it either prints to slow with one driver or prints crap with another. | 15:53 |
| Mormaugus | hey gyus, i'm trying to install xubuntu 11.10 from LiveCD and when i reach on the screen to choose Try ot Install installation crashes(must reboot) | 16:07 |
| GridCube | Mormaugus, use the alternate disk | 16:09 |
| Mormaugus | i tried two CD's with different speed | 16:10 |
| Mormaugus | the PC is old and can't boot from USB | 16:10 |
| GridCube | Mormaugus, again, use the alternate isos :) | 16:11 |
| irciric | hi | 16:12 |
| GridCube | hi | 16:13 |
| irciric | im looking for a web based irc server that allows me to connect to all rooms I am connected to via xchat, but cannot access due to a college firewall | 16:13 |
| irciric | currently I can only connect if im torified | 16:13 |
| irciric | or, should I go room by room asking for their ssl ports? | 16:14 |
| irciric | move this to offtopic? | 16:15 |
| autif | It seems like evtouch is no longer supported/available via ubuntu packages - it was for g,h,i,j,k,l and m - not so for natty and oneiric - Does anyone know why? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EloTouchScreen | 16:29 |
| knome | looks like it isn't developed since 2008 | 16:33 |
| autif | yup - so what replaced this for touchscreen drivers? | 16:34 |
| knome | no idea | 16:35 |
| autif | hmmmn | 16:35 |
| autif | what may be a better place to ask about this - within the greater ubuntu community? is there a dedicated list for X for ubuntu? | 16:36 |
| Sysi | I'd guess "utouch" | 16:36 |
| autif | my first guess would have been https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/Ubuntu-x | 16:37 |
| autif | Sysi - utouch seems to be hosted within unity - does it need unity to be the executing desktop or will it run with any other desktop environment (say) XFCE? | 16:39 |
| Sysi | no idea | 16:39 |
| Sysi | are you wondering if some touchscreen works or do you have non-working touchscreen? | 16:40 |
| autif | Wondering if the touch screen will work at all | 16:41 |
| autif | so far - I am able to get the mouse to move when I touch the touchscreen - but the pointer does not seems to be calibrated - moving the finger 2 inches - moves the cursor more than that on the touch screen | 16:42 |
| GridCube | autif, hello | 16:42 |
| GridCube | :) | 16:42 |
| GridCube | i use a touchscreen with xubuntu 11.10 | 16:43 |
| GridCube | :D | 16:43 |
| autif | i have been researching it and it seems like I need something better than the generic "mice" driver in X | 16:43 |
| GridCube | tell me whats your problem? | 16:43 |
| autif | hi GridCube - as I was describing - the touch screen is a custom 15" screen 1024x768 - running ubuntu with the matchbox desktop environment | 16:45 |
| GridCube | autif, install xinput-calibrator | 16:45 |
| GridCube | :) | 16:45 |
| autif | the vendor provided the source for the driver - pixcir_hid_mt | 16:45 |
| autif | so, I have a working "mouse" | 16:46 |
| GridCube | i don't know what a matchbox desktop enviroment is, are you sure this is the proper place to ask? | 16:46 |
| autif | the screen is a capacitive touch screen - not a resistive touchscreen | 16:46 |
| autif | it does not require calibrating | 16:46 |
| GridCube | autif, to calibrate your touchscreen you can use xinput-calibrate | 16:46 |
| GridCube | welp, it wont harm doesnt it? | 16:46 |
| autif | yes - I will try xinput-calibrate | 16:47 |
| GridCube | its xinput-calibrator | 16:47 |
| GridCube | :) | 16:47 |
| autif | but hear me out - :-) I have been researching this for a few days now and wanted confirmation about some of the research - somehow I stumbled on evtouch - so ... | 16:48 |
| autif | it seems like I need 2 drivers | 16:48 |
| autif | one a kernel driver - which will send data from touchscreen to the /dev/input/mouse0 file | 16:49 |
| autif | the other driver is not a kernel driver | 16:49 |
| autif | it seems like it needs to be an X driver | 16:50 |
| autif | seems like evtouch is a generic driver that takes the data from /dev/input/mouse0 and wires in whatever X needs | 16:50 |
| GridCube | i would not know autif my touchscreen worked flawlessly out of the box | 16:50 |
| autif | nice! | 16:51 |
| GridCube | :) i know | 16:51 |
| autif | for me - the driver is not supported by ubuntu - so I am still investigating. | 16:51 |
| autif | I will ask on the X mailing list | 16:51 |
| GridCube | also the program synaptic, without an s | 16:51 |
| GridCube | can be used to configurate it more | 16:52 |
| autif | I was hoping to get equivalents of evtouch - seems like utouch is it - so will research that more | 16:52 |
| autif | synaptic w/o an s = ynaptic? | 16:52 |
| autif | or did you mean synaptics w/o s - synaptic? | 16:53 |
| GridCube | no | 16:53 |
| autif | i found the synaptic package | 16:53 |
| autif | will try all of these | 16:53 |
| GridCube | oh, i meant | 16:53 |
| GridCube | synaptics | 16:53 |
| GridCube | with an s | 16:53 |
| GridCube | XD | 16:53 |
| GridCube | it says its for the touchpad | 16:54 |
| autif | u touch, xinput-calibrator, utouch and of course synaptic | 16:54 |
| GridCube | but it can control all pointers | 16:54 |
| autif | cool - will try - thanks! | 16:54 |
| GridCube | :) | 16:55 |
| GridCube | good luck | 16:55 |

| autif | wow - could it have been more confusing and unrelated? | 16:57 |
| babble | synaptics is a touchpad/trackpad driver | 16:57 |
| autif | I now understand :-) This would have been a wild chanse | 16:58 |
| autif | s/chanse/chase | 16:59 |
| autif | thanks again | 16:59 |
| xubuntu215 | i read this in the news - The i386 images use a non-PAE kernel to support a bigger variety of machines and when i tried the beta 2 it said wrong cpu i need i686 or enable PAE but i cant find anything to do with PAE?? | 18:53 |
| Unit193 | That may have been changed later. | 18:54 |
| xubuntu215 | so can i just not use 12.04 | 18:56 |
| Unit193 | Last I knew 12.04 of Xubuntu uses non-PAE. | 18:57 |
| xubuntu215 | yea does this mean i cant use it when i tried the i386 it said wrong kernel for cpu | 18:58 |
| knome | they should use a non-pae kernel - if not, please file a bug and we'll try to triage it | 18:59 |
| Unit193 | Syncing now so I can make sure, but I was sure they had non-PAE. | 18:59 |
| knome | i am sure too, i got ack'd when that change was made | 19:00 |
| martinphone | I need help with streamtuner, can you give me a hadn here= | 20:20 |
| martinphone | ? | 20:20 |
| martinphone | will you release the candidate release tomorrow? | 22:58 |
