[02:43] <xubuntu395> :((
[02:45] <bazhang> what is Microsoft 2007
[02:45] <Unit193> MS Office maybe?
[02:45] <xubuntu395> microsoft office 2007
[02:45] <xubuntu395> yup yup
[02:45] <Unit193> !wine |
[02:46] <xubuntu395> ahhh, WINE
[02:46] <xubuntu395> is there another option?
[02:46] <bazhang> yes
[02:48] <xubuntu395> is there another way aside from using wine
[02:50] <bazhang> I just said yes
[02:51] <xubuntu395> how
[02:51] <bazhang> virtualbox
[03:27] <vrkalak> o/ Unit193
[03:41] <ball> Aha! I have found my 11.10 CD
[03:41] <ball> Let's try installing it.
[03:42] <xubuntu687> how do i download and instal adobe flash player
[03:44] <bazhang> !flash > xubuntu687
[03:50] <ball> !flash > ball
[04:43] <ball> I've just wiped my desktop PC and installed Xubuntu 11.10. I love it. WiFi works, the screen works. Now fetching updates for the first time.
[05:19] <ball> Goodnight.

[08:35] <kim_> hi
[08:38] <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)
[08:39] <kim_> echo -e '\x6d\x6f\x6f' | xargs apt-get , did not help,.. :(, any idea how to solve this prob ?
[08:40] <well_laid_lawn> what are you using to find out the temp ?
[08:40] <kim_> sensors
[08:41] <kim_> the fan is working hard
[08:44] <well_laid_lawn> kim_: what sort of cpu is it ?
[08:45] <kim_> arrandale i5-460m
[08:46] <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
[08:47] <kim_> okay thx,
[11:52] <mcdonc> is there a widget for fan speed / cpu temp in xcfe?
[11:56] <ochosi> mcdonc: not by default, and not xfce specific.
[11:58] <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.
[11:59] <ablomen> mcdonc, you can use arandr, it is available in the ubuntu software center
[11:59] <mcdonc> great
[12:02] <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
[12:03] <babble> toolate
[12:13] <babble> mcdonc: if you install xfce4-goodies, you can enable cpu temperature sensors (probably) in the Sensor Viewer applet, with a couple more steps
[12:17] <ardian> Hi how can I get Xubuntu Beta 2 ? 12.04
[12:17] <babble> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/12.04/beta-2/
[12:18] <ardian> babble, thank you.
[14:46] <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?
[14:49] <recon_tv> here is the output of lsusb http://paste.ubuntu.com/934062/
[15:53] <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.
[16:07] <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)
[16:09] <GridCube> Mormaugus, use the alternate disk
[16:10] <Mormaugus> i tried two CD's with different speed
[16:10] <Mormaugus> the PC is old and can't boot from USB
[16:11] <GridCube> Mormaugus, again, use the alternate isos :)
[16:12] <irciric> hi
[16:13] <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
[16:14] <irciric> or, should I go room by room asking for their ssl ports?
[16:15] <irciric> move this to offtopic?
[16:29] <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
[16:33] <knome> looks like it isn't developed since 2008
[16:34] <autif> yup - so what replaced this for touchscreen drivers?
[16:35] <knome> no idea
[16:35] <autif> hmmmn
[16:36] <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"
[16:37] <autif> my first guess would have been https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/Ubuntu-x
[16:39] <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
[16:40] <Sysi> are you wondering if some touchscreen works or do you have non-working touchscreen?
[16:41] <autif> Wondering if the touch screen will work at all
[16:42] <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> :)
[16:43] <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?
[16:45] <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
[16:46] <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?
[16:47] <autif> yes - I will try xinput-calibrate
[16:47] <GridCube> its xinput-calibrator
[16:47] <GridCube> :)
[16:48] <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
[16:49] <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
[16:50] <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
[16:51] <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
[16:52] <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?
[16:53] <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
[16:54] <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!
[16:55] <GridCube> :)
[16:55] <GridCube> good luck
[16:55] <GridCube> !info xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
[16:56] <GridCube> there
[16:57] <autif> !info synaptic
[16:57] <autif> not this?
[16:57] <GridCube> no
[16:57] <autif> ok
[16:57] <autif> thanks
[16:57] <GridCube> thats the instaler
[16:57] <GridCube> !synaptic
[16:57] <babble> synaptic is a gui package manager for gnome and gtk desktops.
[16:57] <autif> wow - could it have been more confusing and unrelated?
[16:57] <babble> synaptics is a touchpad/trackpad driver
[16:58] <autif> I now understand :-) This would have been a wild chanse
[16:59] <autif> s/chanse/chase
[16:59] <autif> thanks again
[18:53] <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??
[18:54] <Unit193> That may have been changed later.
[18:56] <xubuntu215> so can i just not use 12.04
[18:57] <Unit193> Last I knew 12.04 of Xubuntu uses non-PAE.
[18:58] <xubuntu215> yea does this mean i cant use it when i tried the i386 it said wrong kernel for cpu
[18:59] <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.
[19:00] <knome> i am sure too, i got ack'd when that change was made
[20:20] <martinphone> I need help with streamtuner, can you give me a hadn here=
[20:20] <martinphone> ?
[22:58] <martinphone> will you release the candidate release tomorrow?
