[01:12] does anyone know how to force ubuntu to use a specific driver with xorg.conf? [01:12] i've specified 'nouveau' but lightdm won't start [01:12] with the nvidia driver, the screen stays black. [01:22] vexati0n: setting it in xorg.conf should force it. [01:22] make sure you are placing it in the right section [01:30] stlsaint: if i set the driver in xorg to "nouveau," lightdm won't even start. [01:30] and neither will X by itself [01:31] and if i purge the nvidia driver, the resolution is stuck at 1024x768 and there's no direct rendering available - so it's using mesa and not nouveau. [01:31] vexati0n: what graphics card are you using? [01:32] it's a geforce go 6150 [01:32] nouveau works just fine on the live cd [01:34] so partitioned 8gigs of swap space and found out later that ubuntu disabled hibernate :/ [01:35] bah === collinp is now known as Guest93174 === collinp_ is now known as collinp [01:51] vexati0n: but not on live install? [01:52] jaxa: meh [01:56] stlsaint: after updating everything, it quits working. i just installed the x-updates stuff (295.49) and now the nvidia module won't even load [01:56] lightdm crashes, Xorg log says "unable to initialize the nvidia kernel module" [02:00] arggh.. jesus F... so i rebooted and the system auto-blacklisted the nvidia module. wtf [02:03] anyway it's fixed now [02:18] ha [02:18] ok [02:18] was looking up something === wilee-nilee is now known as altnick === altnick is now known as wilee-nilee [09:09] Hello [09:10] Hiya s-fox [09:10] Hello benonsoftware , how are you doing?

Can anyone help me? [15:47] runmike: what doesnt work?.. printer, scanner? have you plugged it in? [15:48] Hi, If I install sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop, does it install also the Xubuntu apps? [15:48] yes [15:48] all of them [15:49] runmike: when you go to the "add a printer" wizard, what is the result? [15:49] runmike: have you ever added a printer in ubuntu? [15:49] this printer is wireless, but i have it connected by USB [15:49] runmike: has this printer ever worked with linux? [15:49] How do I install only the core desktop environment XFCE? [15:49] without the xubuntu apps? [15:50] houman: well, there are no "xubuntu apps" really, but you get the core of xubuntu installed with that command [15:50] houman: you can just insatll xfce [15:50] install* [15:51] holstein, its because I was told if I do sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop I would install also the Lubuntu apps. But if I did sudo apt-get install lxde-core I could only install LXDE [15:52] holstein: hence I was looking for a similar command to install only the core xfce without the overhead that comes with xbuntu. [15:52] houman: you just install XFCE [15:53] holstein: Thanks. so all I do is sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop ? [15:55] houman: no [15:55] Yes I try with the wizard, and the printer appears on the list [15:55] Yes I already have added a printer to ubuntu [15:55] houman: that installs all the xubutu stuff that you are implying you dont want [15:55] no this printer never worked with linux [15:56] houman: you open whatever package manager you want to use and search XFCE, and install only XFCE [15:56] houman: XFCE doesnt = xubuntu... xubuntu uses XFCE, and thats about as far as the similarities go [15:57] runmike: and it doesnt print? [15:57] no [15:57] runmike: AFAIK, wireless scanning can be tricky... sometimes theres a webgui for that [15:57] holstein: ahh i understand. Thanks for clarifying. Under ubuntu software center I don't see any xfce :( [15:57] I can't put it to work [15:57] houman: close the software center, and try another package manager, or the teriminal [15:57] !pure xfce [15:58] Factoid 'pure xfce' not found [15:58] !xfce [15:58] Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels [15:59] holstein: I feel comfortable with the terminal. But I don't know how to install xfce only :D I think I am back to square one after reading ubot2 [15:59] houman: there not really any reasong not to install the metapacakge xubuntu-desktop [15:59] houman: you literally just install xfce [15:59] holstein: yes exactly. Only xfce desktop environment. Because I hate Unity :D [16:00] houman: replace xubuntu-desktop with xfce... if you are comfortable in the terminal, then use the tab complete to make sure you are referencing an available package [16:01] runmike: sometimes, i just fiddle around with changing drivers.. i also just use the IP address with one tricky printer [16:01] holstein: ahhhh i was missing a 4. The correct command is sudo apt-get install xfce4 Thank you so much [16:01] runmike: its fiddly, but it will work.. if you want it to just work out of the box, be sure you let brother know [16:01] holstein: didnt know the tab trick ;) [16:05] houman: :) [16:12] I have two big problems. I don't understand ubuntu and English to [16:12] runmike: what language? [16:12] there are lots of support channels, mabye we can direct you to a more appropraie and localized channel? [16:13] português [16:14] runmike: there should be #ubuntu-pt [16:14] /join #ubuntu-pt [16:17] the channels in português don't have any one that have the interest to teatch [16:17] runmike: you might need to join and wait... or just tough it out here with us [16:18] runmike: im sure its just an issue where you are not quite used to using printing in ubuntu yet [16:18] runmike: there are options in that GUI for using the printer with "jet direct" [16:18] runmike: that works for me on a tricky bother network printer... [16:19] tanths any way [16:42] I am interested in a tutorial or guide using apparmor. Any suggestions and guidance will be appreciated. [16:47] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppArmor any help? [16:55] yes I have been going over it. === nothingspecial is now known as angela-android === angela-android is now known as nothingspecial
