| hbc | it said: "vfs: unable to mount root fs on unknow block" | 04:57 |
| hbc | any suggestions? | 04:58 |
| Sysi | try unetbootin or usb-creator | 04:59 |
| maoranma | I personally use unetbootin, just remember to format your media before hand | 04:59 |
| hbc | I have tried unetbootin too, the same | 05:00 |
| hbc | I also tried boot from hd, also the same | 05:00 |
| maoranma | So I'm getting screen corruption when I resize LibreOffice, anyone else? | 07:16 |

| Saurabh_123 | will xubuntu 12.04 be supported for 3 or 5 years? | 08:22 |
| well_laid_lawn | !lts | 08:24 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) | 08:24 |
| well_laid_lawn | doesn't really answer the question | 08:25 |
| Saurabh_123 | yeah, and also Ubuntu 12.04 LTS will be supported for 5 years on the desktop too | 08:26 |
| Saurabh_123 | but I was asking about the particular xubuntu release | 08:26 |
| well_laid_lawn | if you look at the 28th April here - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseSchedule - 12.04 is a lts release | 08:27 |
| well_laid_lawn | xubuntu is ubuntu with xfce - same release and support | 08:28 |
| Saurabh_123 | well_laid_lawn, Yeah I already know that | 08:28 |
| well_laid_lawn | what're you asking then ? | 08:28 |
| Saurabh_123 | But I was asking about xubuntu support rather than ubuntu | 08:28 |
| Saurabh_123 | Ubuntu 12.04 will be supported for 5 years | 08:29 |
| well_laid_lawn | the server will be | 08:29 |
| well_laid_lawn | and 5 years on the server. | 08:29 |
| Saurabh_123 | well_laid_lawn, the desktop too | 08:29 |
| Saurabh_123 | not just the server | 08:29 |
| well_laid_lawn | will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, | 08:29 |
| Saurabh_123 | no, u r wrong | 08:29 |
| well_laid_lawn | and 5 years on the server. | 08:29 |
| Saurabh_123 | well_laid_lawn, check this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ubuntu_releases#Ubuntu_12.04_LTS_.28Precise_Pangolin.29 | 08:30 |
| well_laid_lawn | did you see the bot reply? | 08:30 |
| Saurabh_123 | its 5 years on both desktop and server | 08:30 |
| well_laid_lawn | who do you believe? the bot or wikipedia ? | 08:32 |
| Saurabh_123 | well, I believe Mark shuttleworth | 08:32 |
| well_laid_lawn | I dunno to be honest | 08:32 |
| Saurabh_123 | and canonical | 08:32 |
| grifo74 | hi exist any package i need to intall to have 3d fuction on intel graphic cards | 08:33 |

| Saurabh_123 | its a reliable source | 08:34 |

| makk | i dont know command line and xubuntu worked then i upgraded nvidia now bad video driver,. how to restore defaults easily .??? | 14:27 |
| GridCube | makk, can you access the internet from that machine? | 14:28 |
| GridCube | if yes then you can install mc, its a file manager for the terminal, and you wont have to be so scare against the terminal :) | 14:29 |
| GridCube | its easy to install you just type: sudo apt-get install mc | 14:29 |
| GridCube | once you have done this you run it as superuser, again: sudo mc | 14:30 |
| GridCube | then you go to /etc/X11, on both panes, and then you rename xorg.conf, pressing F6, to xorg.conf.old | 14:31 |
| GridCube | and then you reboot | 14:31 |
| GridCube | thats about it | 14:31 |
| GridCube | makk, else you can do it all with: cd /etc/X11 && sudo cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.old && rm xorg.conf | 14:35 |
| GridCube | mmm no, thats wrong | 14:35 |
| GridCube | cd /etc/X11 && sudo cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.old && sudo rm xorg.conf | 14:35 |
| GridCube | thats more like it :D | 14:35 |
| GridCube | you could also add an "&& sudo reboot" there if you feel like it :P | 14:36 |
| makk | can i just copy and paste that in a terminal window | 14:51 |
| makk | [sudo] password for user: user@user-desktop:/etc/X11$ must be done | 14:53 |
| GridCube | yes you need to put your password | 14:57 |
| makk | so i made sure i deactivated the proprietary drivers and rebooted, just wondering if i could find a way to do it in the destop interface. video driver issue. | 15:03 |
| GridCube | makk, launch: gksu jockey-gtk | 15:05 |
| GridCube | from alt-f2 | 15:05 |
| Mokura | If I go into the xubuntu settings manager and try to add a keyboard shortcut, there's no text box for key input (but a box for the command to run). I've already tried to delete the shortcut settings file, and that didn't seem to do anything. Any suggestions? | 15:27 |
| babble | Mokura: You need to double click on the right-hand side of the keyboard shortcuts list | 15:29 |
| babble | (where the other keyboard shortcuts are) | 15:29 |
| babble | clicking on the left side lets you modify the command to be launched | 15:29 |
| babble | on the right side lets you modify the keyboard shortcut to launch it | 15:30 |
| Mokura | Well I'll be. | 15:30 |
| babble | it's a little confusing until you've done it a couple of times :) | 15:30 |
| Mokura | That's a little unintuitive, but it makes a sort of sense. Thanks! | 15:30 |
| babble | it makes a kind of sense, yeah. hehe. | 15:31 |
| Mokura | What commands would I use to move windows between workspaces? Is there something in the xfce docs for that? | 15:31 |
| babble | it might be a gtk theme issue, but it might be a little easier to get, the first time, if they visually separated the columns a little. | 15:31 |
| babble | you can set that in Window Manager > Keyboard | 15:32 |
| Mokura | Oh wow. Okay, cool. | 15:32 |
| babble | Keyboard > Application Shortcuts really is for applications. | 15:32 |
| Mokura | haha. | 15:32 |
| Mokura | fair enough. | 15:32 |
| babble | there's a roadmap item to merge all of the keyboard shortcuts settings into one UI, but it would likely be as confusing that way. heh. | 15:33 |
| Mokura | oh hey, control-left/right to change workspaces. shoulda just tried it, duh. | 15:33 |
| Slamd64 | Hello everyone. I have one simple question: what applet for volume mixer does xubuntu use? I need this applet: http://www.dedoimedo.com/images/computers_years/2011_2/xubuntu-music-integration.jpg | 15:33 |
| * Mokura has dexpot on a windows box set up like that. dead handy. | 15:33 | |
| babble | (I always forget what the defaults are - I have everything to suit me) | 15:33 |
| makk | gksu:1696 | 15:35 |
| Slamd64 | anyone knows what is the name of this applet? http://www.dedoimedo.com/images/computers_years/2011_2/xubuntu-music-integration.jpg thanks in advance | 15:49 |
| GridCube | Slamd64, :) you closed the plugin indicator from the panel, add it back again | 15:54 |
| GridCube | the plugin indicator comes back to life for network and mail, but not for sound | 15:55 |
| GridCube | you need to manually reinstate it | 15:55 |
| GridCube | Slamd64, has it been fixed? | 16:04 |
| babble | it's just the Sound Menu | 16:11 |
| babble | add the Indicators plugin to your panel and stuff that exports to the Ubuntu Sound Menu over dbus will show up in there. | 16:11 |
| babble | (toolate) | 16:11 |

| martinphone | I accidentally deleted a file I need, its not in the bin, can I still find it in lost and found? | 18:38 |
| bazhang | martinphone, which one? a system package or something else | 18:43 |
| martinphone | bazhang, a movie | 18:43 |
| bazhang | !undelete | 18:43 |
| ubottu | Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel | 18:43 |
| martinphone | i tried nautilus, but I cannot access it | 18:43 |
| bazhang | see above martinphone | 18:44 |
| jerli | join #lubuntu | 18:44 |
| martinphone | root@dexter-M7X0SUN:/lost+found# ls -la | 18:46 |
| martinphone | total 20 | 18:46 |
| martinphone | drwx------ 2 root root 16384 Apr 12 14:03 . | 18:46 |
| martinphone | drwxr-xr-x 25 root root 4096 Apr 13 14:33 .. | 18:46 |
| martinphone | where are the 20 (files I assume)? | 18:46 |
| bazhang | root? | 18:48 |
| martinphone | yes, why? | 18:49 |
| martinphone | you mean me as root, right? I couldnt access that lost and found as regular user | 18:49 |
| bazhang | why did you enable the root account? | 18:50 |
| martinphone | I couldnt access that lost and found as regular user | 18:50 |
| bazhang | sudo | 18:50 |
| mongy | sudo -i puts you as root, even though root does not exist :) | 18:50 |
| martinphone | sudo cd /lost+found??? | 18:50 |
| Artemis3 | don't bother with lost+found, when you delete something you should umount asap and try recovery software: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery | 18:51 |
| bazhang | you dont need root to enter a directory | 18:51 |
| Artemis3 | eg from a live cd | 18:51 |
| bazhang | martinphone, you do have backups, right? | 18:52 |
| martinphone | bazhang, not that important, its a movie I got 2 hours ago... | 18:52 |
| bazhang | ... | 18:52 |
| Artemis3 | ah, then don't bother | 18:52 |
| martinphone | and I have backups of just a part of all my data | 18:52 |
| Artemis3 | let it go | 18:52 |
| martinphone | seems Ill have to do that Artemis3 | 18:53 |
| Artemis3 | when you delete, if it complains it won't go into the bin... | 18:53 |
| Artemis3 | which remings me my bin is disabled somehow ;) | 18:53 |
| babble | if you're deleting from a second, third partition, look in .Trash-0 at the top of the partition, unless you've done a *delete* instead of move-to-trash | 18:57 |

| xubuntu243 | and | 19:36 |
| xubuntu243 | I wanted to know which application to use to set the autostart | 19:36 |
| xubuntu243 | of other app, for example wicd | 19:37 |
| xubuntu243 | and other question | 19:38 |
| xubuntu243 | How I can make applications remain in the tray? | 19:39 |
| xubuntu243 | thanks !! | 19:39 |

| dougl | I installed ubunbtu 11.10 then ccsm and enabled some effects which broke my desktop then installed xubuntu and am booted to that but ccsm effects do not work (desktop cube and wobbly windows) any suggestions? | 20:07 |
| mongy | dougl: is compiz running. | 20:12 |
| mongy | 'compiz --replace ccp' | 20:13 |
| phl | GridCube: in gtk_file_chooser_button_get_type () from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 | 20:13 |

| GridCube | mmhm | 20:15 |
| GridCube | i dont know gtk sorry | 20:15 |
| GridCube | :( | 20:15 |
| dougl | mongy, checking | 20:15 |
| mongy | brb | 20:16 |
| dougl | mongy, did that command and window decorations bar (and handles?) disappeared... hmmm | 20:18 |
| mongy | dougl: it's not running by default unless you use that command... | 20:19 |
| dougl | mongy, thanks so much for the help... I will reboot and then it should run by default then? | 20:20 |
| mongy | dougl: also, you might need to use a window decorator. I use emerald (webupd8 ppa has it) or gtk | 20:20 |
| dougl | mongy, thanks /me googling emerald and xfce | 20:21 |
| mongy | in the window decorator plugin in ccsm you enter something like gtk-window-decorator --metacity-theme=Ambiance or maybe --use-metacity-theme= I forget. | 20:23 |
| mongy | Or use emerald. I prefer it. Works fine for me. | 20:24 |
| dougl | rebooted and still no effects :( | 20:25 |
| mongy | it doesnt run itself | 20:25 |
| mongy | you have to add startup entry | 20:25 |
| dougl | oh - lol, what a bonehead I am = ok | 20:26 |
| dougl | quick ? - how to you enable sshd on xubuntu - err start it? | 20:36 |
| Unit193 | You'll need to install first. | 20:37 |
| dougl | thanks | 20:37 |

| dekkz | hi whats ppl favourite theme for xubuntu? | 20:57 |
| Unit193 | Because it needs to be GTK2 and 3, Blackbird or modified blackbird. | 20:57 |
| GridCube | dekkz, welp i like the default greybird | 20:59 |
| GridCube | also: | 20:59 |
| GridCube | !best | 20:59 |
| ubottu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Polls are highly discouraged to be taken on this channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, please ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 20:59 |
| dekkz | yeah thats what i'm using | 21:00 |
| mongy | zukitwo-brave is my fave, dark, bright theme | 21:00 |
| dekkz | just googled a bit n most aew dark in look like bad beos 90s knockoffs | 21:01 |
| mongy | goes well with the zukitwo xfwm theme. | 21:01 |
| dekkz | k gonna look that one up, | 21:02 |
| dekkz | interesting | 21:07 |
| no-name- | is it possible to change the size of icons in icon view in thunar? | 21:10 |
| === chrissi is now known as joe-cool | ||
| mongy | no-name-: View/Zoom in - zoom out | 21:11 |
| no-name- | cheers | 21:11 |
| dekkz | file manager prefs too | 21:11 |
| Unit193 | Ctrl+scroll too. | 21:11 |
| no-name- | dekkz: not in thunar | 21:12 |
| dekkz | k | 21:12 |
| no-name- | another thunar question: in detailed list view, can you make it so all the "free screen space" goes to the column on the far left instead of the column on the far right? | 21:14 |
| dekkz | so thunar isnt the file manager in xubuntu? | 21:16 |
| mongy | no-name-: View - configure columns and disable | 21:16 |
| mongy | disable auto expand. set your own. | 21:16 |
| Ahix | Xubuntu or Lubuntu for a very slow computer ? | 21:32 |
| xubuntu122 | Hi | 21:56 |
| oxic` | Hiya! | 21:56 |
| xubuntu122 | I am trying to run exe with wine, but there is this blocker which just won't turn off | 21:56 |
| xubuntu122 | whenever I click on run as program checkbox, it checks it off a second later | 21:57 |
| xubuntu122 | any solution to this? | 21:57 |
| Unit193 | You could open a terminal and type wine program.exe, or check permissions. | 21:57 |
| xubuntu122 | can't check the permission | 21:59 |
| xubuntu122 | it checks off automatically | 21:59 |
| xubuntu122 | and can't install to wine because installers are also getting blocked | 22:00 |
| mongy | xubuntu122: are you running from cd? | 22:10 |
| xubuntu122 | USB | 22:10 |
| xubuntu122 | flash driv | 22:10 |
| mongy | fat32? | 22:11 |
| xubuntu122 | with casper persistence | 22:11 |
| xubuntu122 | yea | 22:11 |
| mongy | oh | 22:11 |
| mongy | the exe is on fat ? | 22:11 |
| xubuntu122 | no | 22:11 |
| xubuntu122 | separate ntfs hdd | 22:12 |
| mongy | you need to remount the tfs the maybe with exec permissions. or use winesetup to run it. | 22:13 |
| mongy | been a long time since I used wine but there was something you could use to make it execute stuff that don't have +x perms, it was called winesetup. | 22:14 |
