| Commonwealth | Can anyone tell me what a helper application is? | 04:03 |
| xubuntu287 | Thought I'd mention that the 12.04 amd64 alternate cd seems to have a corrupt ATI driver package (ie I checked the md5 sum of the iso, and hit the failure twice on that package) | 04:15 |
| Unit193 | Really? How did yu download? | 04:16 |
| xubuntu287 | Direct from ubuntu mirror http | 04:17 |
| xubuntu287 | Thought it was a bad download, but the md5 sums match | 04:17 |
| xubuntu287 | I can try opening up the iso and looking for the package itself | 04:18 |
| Unit193 | Alright, well you say the ISO md5 is good, but the package itself fails in the live/install? (To clearify) | 04:18 |
| Unit193 | (I'd like to blame comcast, but.... ;) ) | 04:19 |
| xubuntu287 | ISO md5 is good | 04:19 |
| xubuntu287 | unet boot in to usb, (two separate times) | 04:19 |
| Unit193 | knome: Can you take a peek at that when you get back? You said you have the disk. | 04:19 |
| xubuntu287 | Install fails when installing packages, used the integrity checker and reports driver as bad | 04:19 |
| xubuntu287 | (sorry reports a package that looked to be ati package as bad) | 04:20 |
| === `mOOse` is now known as m00se | ||
| Unit193 | xubuntu287: Well, I'd almost say reporting a bug would be a good idea, but not sure exactly what agenst. | 04:20 |
| Unit193 | (I personally can't check this one) | 04:20 |
| xubuntu287 | After I get my machine back up and running I'll run the integrity check again and write down the package name | 04:22 |
| xubuntu287 | though if someone else has a VM handy it'd be good to get another check on it | 04:22 |

| === gry is now known as Gryllida | ||
| Unit193 | Yep, and double checked from the mirror. | 04:28 |
| xubuntu287 | ok I think the package was xserver-xorg-ati_6.14.99~git2011219.aacbd629-0ubuntu2_.deb | 04:31 |

| xubuntu287 | ah http://markmail.org/thread/oubopssmrzo7icg2 | 04:34 |
| xubuntu287 | great it looks as though all the alternate isos are hosed | 04:35 |
| Unit193 | First comment says it all ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pkgsel/+bug/995140/comments/1 ) | 04:36 |

| xubuntu287 | ok I'll go in and edit launchpad and increase the severity and distributions affected | 04:40 |
| xubuntu287 | (Having one of the supported install methods guaranteed to fail on all machines is really a pretty critical bug [not to mention embarassing])] | 04:41 |

| recon69_lap | hi, how to you adjust the screen brightness? | 13:04 |
| recon69_lap | before i go blind | 13:05 |
| recon69_lap | never mind, found it. good to be able to see screen without squinting | 13:13 |
| Adriannom | hi. just installed xubuntu 12.04 and after i suspend, the screen is very dark, even at the prompt to log back in. changing brightness has some effect, but even full brightness is very dark. any ideas what could be going on? | 13:19 |
| Adriannom | the mouse pointer is actually the only thing that is at full brightness | 13:20 |
| recon69_lap | Adriannom: try right click the desktop and select desktop settings , some sliders in there | 13:21 |
| Adriannom | recon69_lap, yup, that is how i tried to change the brightness. it has some effect, but the darkness pervades all | 13:22 |
| recon69_lap | and you got the brightness slider applet ? | 13:23 |
| Adriannom | what's that? | 13:23 |
| Adriannom | this is a fresh install. do i need to install it? | 13:24 |
| recon69_lap | install xfce4-power-manager-plugins | 13:24 |
| Adriannom | ok | 13:24 |
| recon69_lap | and add it to a pannel | 13:24 |
| Adriannom | ok added, but it has a white sun filled with red, and an exclamation mark in the middle | 13:26 |
| Adriannom | when i click on it nothing happens | 13:26 |
| Adriannom | ah, hovering over it says "no device found" | 13:26 |
| recon69_lap | Adriannom: whats the make and model of computer | 13:26 |
| Adriannom | can't find any settings for it | 13:26 |
| Adriannom | it's just a home build pc, maybe 4 years old at a guess | 13:27 |
| recon69_lap | Adriannom: guess it's not playing nice with your video driver/card. | 13:28 |
| recon69_lap | Adriannom: I had the same dark screen , but the applet works for me | 13:28 |
| Adriannom | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RV670PRO [Radeon HD 3850] | 13:28 |
| Adriannom | hm, i tried to install the proprietary drivers, but it failed for some reason. i just gave up but maybe it's worth persisting | 13:29 |
| Adriannom | thanks a lot recon69_lap | 13:30 |
| recon69_lap | Adriannom: I'm tring to find the command to start the power management app, might be somthing in there | 13:30 |
| Adriannom | you mean like in settings->power management? | 13:31 |
| Adriannom | settings->settings manager->power management even | 13:32 |
| recon69_lap | Adriannom: yep, thats the one, on AC tab , is it reducing brightness ? | 13:33 |
| Adriannom | i see no such option | 13:34 |
| Adriannom | are you on 12.04? | 13:34 |
| recon69_lap | power manager -> on Ac -> Monitor -> brightness | 13:35 |
| recon69_lap | Adriannom: and did you upgrade or install 12.04? | 13:36 |
| Adriannom | recon69_lap, install, then update fully | 13:37 |
| Adriannom | first thing i did was experiment with suspend | 13:37 |
| recon69_lap | Adriannom: Had the same problems as you, but my brightness applet works. Dont really know enough about it to help you more. | 13:38 |
| Adriannom | no worries. what video card did you have? | 13:39 |
| recon69_lap | Adriannom: this night help https://help.ubuntu.com/11.04/ubuntu-help/power-brighter.html | 13:40 |
| Adriannom | not sure, i don't think it's an ordinary brightness problem because the mouse pointer is super bright | 13:41 |
| recon69_lap | Adriannom: nvida 9600 somthing | 13:41 |
| Adriannom | does turning brightness down normally leave the mouse unaffected? | 13:42 |
| P-Chan | Hello guys! I need help! In ubuntu 10.04 my video card runs at 1200x800. In 12.04 in earlier too but now the maximum is 1024x768. I tried xrandr, graphical interface and not works | 13:42 |

| Adam313 | or If I install xubuntu can I just use that empty parition? | 15:05 |
| Adam313 | can anyone help me out? | 15:05 |
| astraljava | Adam313: Yes, you can install Xubuntu on an empty partition. In fact, that's the most usual thing to do. | 15:06 |
| P-Chan | astraljava: my lspci http://pastebin.com/fcsBAt4W | 15:06 |
| Adam313 | astraljava, Thank you | 15:06 |

| Adam313 | to delete linux mint12 | 15:06 |
| P-Chan | Adam313: use gparted | 15:07 |
| Adam313 | P-Chan, Thanks I'l look into it | 15:07 |
| astraljava | Adam313: You don't necessary need to delete the partition either, the installer is capable of installing on a partition you don't need anymore. It will re-format it if that's what you want. | 15:08 |
| Adam313 | I wont delete that parition if you told me I don't need to :p | 15:08 |
| Adam313 | I was just wondering where can I download this, can I download it for windows xp? | 15:08 |
| Adam313 | My desktop is rigt beside me and I'm ready to go | 15:09 |
| * astraljava points at the topic | 15:09 | |
| Adam313 | aha | 15:09 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: it's a good idea to get the partition info before you install as it can be hard to know what partition is which with just device names | 15:09 |
| Adam313 | recon69_lap, It's a small parition, 60gb's | 15:09 |
| Adam313 | I know which one I'm using because I only have two | 15:09 |
| Adam313 | So is there any other networks on freenods that I would enjoy lol | 15:10 |

| Adam313 | okay | 15:11 |
| Adam313 | one more question: is gparted for windows ? | 15:11 |
| P-Chan | Adam313: no but live cd is avaiable | 15:12 |
| Adam313 | P-Chan, What is live cd because I have no cd's to burn anything to, I was thinking of using a usb drive by using linux live usb | 15:13 |
| Adam313 | P-Chan, I need a parition editor so I can delete the files of that parition safely first of all | 15:13 |
| P-Chan | use mint live usb to delete mint installed | 15:14 |
| astraljava | Adam313: You can use the live image from USB stick as well, don't be fooled by the name. | 15:14 |
| P-Chan | Adam313: | 15:14 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: the installer allows you to delete/create/format partitions | 15:14 |
| Adam313 | recon69_lap, the xubuntu installer?? | 15:15 |
| Adam313 | Wow, that solves a lot of things. | 15:15 |
| Adam313 | I have another thing: is the newest xubuntu better or 10.4 | 15:15 |
| Adam313 | Because I want to use the windows ubuntu installer, is there a list of what version I can pick on it? not just ubuntu, like kubuntu or xubuntu | 15:16 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: just select advance or other when installing | 15:16 |
| Adam313 | recon69_lap, okay | 15:17 |
| Adam313 | thank you very much, i appreciate it, | 15:17 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: what is this windows installer you talk about, sounds bad | 15:17 |
| Adam313 | Uhm, It's on the ubuntu site. | 15:17 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: you are setting up a duel boot system? | 15:18 |
| astraljava | wubi, and it's really only supposed to be used for checking out how Ubuntu works and looks like. Not a long-term solution by any means. | 15:18 |
| Adam313 | recon69_lap, Yes. | 15:18 |
| astraljava | Adam313: Then that's not a windows installer you're looking for | 15:18 |
| Adam313 | astraljava, I was thinking of using wubi | 15:18 |
| astraljava | Adam313: Right. Well, be aware that it'll be fairly limited. | 15:18 |
| Adam313 | astraljava, What will be limited? wubi | 15:19 |
| Adam313 | ? | 15:19 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: thats not a duel boot system | 15:19 |
| astraljava | Adam313: Yes. | 15:19 |
| Adam313 | recon69_lap, okay | 15:19 |
| Adam313 | I'm dual booting | 15:19 |
| Adam313 | so I can't use wubi | 15:19 |
| Adam313 | linux live usb sounds good :p | 15:19 |
| P-Chan | Adam313: Yes. I have various isos | 15:20 |
| Adam313 | is 10.4 better for xubuntu or the newst one? | 15:20 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: boot to the live usb, install to the empty partition and keep the usb for emergences | 15:20 |

| Adam313 | so on the xubuntu install | 15:24 |
| Adam313 | is there a way I can format the partition when im doing this? | 15:24 |
| Adam313 | :p | 15:24 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: yes, just make sure you do not pick any of the automated options, you need to pick the partition before anything gets deleted | 15:25 |
| Adam313 | recon69_lap, okay | 15:26 |
| Adam313 | so i dont choose the automated options | 15:26 |
| Adam313 | Is it hard? | 15:27 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: yep, advanced the whole way :) | 15:27 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: no, you just have to be careful , you select the wrong option and click "are you sure" a partition disappears | 15:28 |
| Adam313 | okay recon69_lap | 15:28 |
| Adam313 | After I formatt that parition | 15:29 |

| Adam313 | ? | 15:29 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: dont bother , select the partition and set it to "/" , then install | 15:29 |
| Adam313 | I'm going to be on my laptop so can I ask you questions along the way when I am doing this? | 15:29 |
| Adam313 | oh yes | 15:29 |
| Adam313 | So I installed linux live usb | 15:30 |
| Adam313 | I hate how in windows xp I can't see the other partition | 15:30 |
| Adam313 | I now have to go on linux again | 15:30 |
| Adam313 | just to friggin get that .iso file | 15:30 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: no, you will have installed xubuntu using a xubuntu live usb | 15:30 |
| P-Chan | Adam313: Windows i made by lobbysts | 15:30 |
| P-Chan | But Badindows is necessary to me | 15:31 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: iso??? what do you need that for? | 15:31 |

| Adam313 | ? | 15:32 |
| Adam313 | Are you saying I won't be using a real usb | 15:32 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: god, you write the .ISO to a usb stick, then boot your computer using the stick, then you select install and install xubuntu onto your empty partition, why what where you planning to do? | 15:33 |
| Adam313 | recon69_lap, That is what I'm talking about | 15:33 |
| Adam313 | :s | 15:33 |
| Adam313 | lol | 15:33 |
| Adam313 | I'm going to use linux live usb to write the iso file onto my usb | 15:33 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: do you know what a .iso file is? | 15:33 |
| Adam313 | it is the file that holds the install for the distro | 15:33 |
| Adam313 | ? | 15:35 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: what i dont get is you going to use a live usb to make another live usb? | 15:35 |
| Adam313 | recon69_lap, Isn't linux live usb (this is a program) to write the .ISO file onto a usb | 15:35 |
| Adam313 | its the name of the program | 15:36 |

| P-Chan | recon69_lap: Ubuntu is for ubuntu, xubuntu is for xubuntu | 15:37 |
| P-Chan | :'( | 15:37 |
| recon69_lap | P-Chan: not really a xfce issue, more of a xorg issue | 15:37 |
| milen8204 | recon69_lap, I can not run Video in internet sites | 15:38 |

| Adam313 | Or should I use my usb | 15:39 |
| P-Chan | recon69_lap: the problem is only xubuntu has this problem, Kubuntu haven't it but i prefer xubuntu super mega power light weight | 15:39 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: just make sure you do not just copy the file, you need to burn it as a .iso | 15:40 |
| Adam313 | recon69_lap, what do you mean | 15:40 |
| recon69_lap | P-Chan: your issue is at a lower level that the UI, issue is with your monitor or video not being correctly setup/detected. | 15:41 |
| Adam313 | the program I am goingto use will be the usb program " linux live usb" I'm not going to use the cd | 15:41 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: well i used usb-creator-gtk , but not sure if you on windows | 15:43 |
| Adam313 | I am on windows | 15:43 |
| Adam313 | is that for windows | 15:43 |
| Adam313 | ? | 15:43 |
| Adam313 | I might use it if you claim its good | 15:43 |
| P-Chan | off topic: I like this music http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2eC0VfQMRdc | 15:44 |
| pleia2 | unetbootin exists for windows too https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick#From_Windows | 15:44 |
| P-Chan | pleia2: I use UNETBOOT | 15:44 |
| pleia2 | P-Chan: use #xubuntu-offtopic | 15:44 |
| pleia2 | P-Chan: please don't post links like that here | 15:44 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: no, you'll have to find whatever MS windows uses. 3 years since I used windows, like a foreign country now | 15:44 |
| P-Chan | pleia2: ok | 15:44 |
| Adam313 | pleia2, what is unetbooting | 15:45 |
| Adam313 | is it a usb creator for iso files | 15:45 |
| pleia2 | Adam313: the link I gave explains | 15:45 |
| pleia2 | (I don't use windows either, so I'm not really sure about the process) | 15:45 |
| recon69_lap | I like the way a USB install remembers everything so you dont have to do anything twice :) | 15:46 |
| Adam313 | recon69_lap, okay | 15:47 |
| Adam313 | its putting the .ISO onto my drive | 15:47 |
| recon69_lap | anyone know why i get "Failed to execute child process "palimpsest" (No such file or directory)" when i select application->system->disk utility ? | 15:49 |
| Adam313 | also recon69_lap : can I delete the iso of the drive after? | 15:49 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: what??? | 15:51 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: remember that a .iso is a copy of a drive, so can be confusing if you are not really clear | 15:51 |
| Adam313 | recon69_lap, Oh, I meant can I delte the .iso off the USB drive :P | 15:52 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: the iso should not be on the USB drive? did you copy it there? | 15:53 |
| Adam313 | I'm writing it there recon69_lap | 15:53 |
| Adam313 | using linux live usb creator. | 15:53 |
| Adam313 | It writes it there and makes the usb bootable | 15:53 |
| Adam313 | so I can use it for install just like a cd | 15:53 |
| Adam313 | :s | 15:53 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: yes, and after you write it the USB will contain a linux operating system | 15:53 |
| Adam313 | I know, but can I delete it off the usb after | 15:54 |
| Adam313 | I know you think that may be silly but I might need to if my mum needs it (she does not use google drive, dropbox, etc) | 15:54 |
| Adam313 | I don't have a USB drive and I am using hers | 15:54 |
| Adam313 | :p | 15:54 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: agggh, the ISO will not be on the USB, a linux operation system will be, | 15:54 |
| Adam313 | okay | 15:54 |
| Adam313 | well you know what I mean, can i delete the linux os off of it after? :P | 15:55 |
| Adam313 | ah it recognized the linux distro, xubuntu 12.04 :) | 15:55 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: sure, but create a live CD so you have a backup for system rescue | 15:56 |
| Adam313 | obv :p | 15:56 |
| Adam313 | okay thats good that I can delete it after | 15:56 |
| Adam313 | thanks for all your help recon69_lap | 15:56 |
| recon69_lap | you have not used computers long, nothing is obv :) | 15:56 |
| Adam313 | but I hope if I have any questions while I'm installing it you will give me some tips | 15:56 |
| Adam313 | recon69_lap, What do you mean? I have never used Linux before | 15:56 |

| Adam313 | my god | 15:58 |
| Adam313 | I think this is a vm box | 15:58 |
| Adam313 | fuck my life | 15:58 |

| Adam313 | GridCube, How do I delete the files on my usb | 16:19 |
| milen8204 | GridCube, yes | 16:19 |
| Adam313 | I did unmount | 16:19 |

| GridCube | no | 16:20 |
| GridCube | format it | 16:20 |
| GridCube | you will delete the partitions | 16:20 |
| Adam313 | okay | 16:20 |
| Adam313 | GridCube, into what type | 16:20 |

| Adam313 | GridCube, nope | 16:20 |
| Adam313 | both | 16:20 |
| Adam313 | windblows and linux | 16:21 |
| GridCube | then you can format it to ntfs or fat32 | 16:21 |
| Adam313 | okay | 16:21 |
| GridCube | i recommend ntfs | 16:21 |
| Adam313 | why ntfs | 16:21 |
| Adam313 | ? | 16:21 |
| GridCube | fat32 its safer yes, but i have find that ntfs its less pron to incredible cases of file corruption | 16:22 |
| recon69_lap | this probably worth reading for new linux users http://www.unixmen.com/201204-top-things-to-do-after-installing-ubuntu-2/ | 16:22 |
| GridCube | and for usbs like 16gb its better | 16:22 |

| Adam313 | GridCube, Its 1gb | 16:22 |
| GridCube | Adam313, then fat32 | 16:22 |
| Adam313 | this is just old :p | 16:22 |

| vitald | GridCube, thanks, i'm waiting | 16:29 |
| recon69_lap | does "applications->system->disk utility" give a error when starting to anyone else? | 16:29 |
| GridCube | Adam313, in windows install http://www.partitionwizard.com/download.html | 16:30 |
| GridCube | its a free partition manager | 16:30 |
| Adam313 | GridCube, I don't know why but this is seriously messed up :/ | 16:31 |
| Adam313 | GridCube, what irc client do you use? | 16:31 |
| GridCube | vitald, http://wiki.audacityteam.org/index.php?title=Noise_Removal | 16:31 |
| GridCube | xchat | 16:31 |
| recon69_lap | milen8204: also just found For Ubuntu 32 bit & 64 bit : To be able to watch some videos and see flash website in your browser (firefox/ Chrome..), you need to install flash plugin, go to ubuntu software center and search word “flash” and install it. | 16:32 |
| Adam313 | GridCube, Thanks | 16:32 |
| Adam313 | I see all the files | 16:32 |
| Adam313 | this is great | 16:32 |
| recon69_lap | damn, all these different instructions for different UI's , becoming a mess | 16:32 |
| milen8204 | recon69_lap, I have been installed flash plug-in | 16:32 |
| Adam313 | recon69_lap, I see the linux os on the usb drive | 16:33 |
| Adam313 | but why is it not booting | 16:33 |
| GridCube | :) | 16:33 |
| Adam313 | Is it because I am using a partition | 16:33 |
| Adam313 | ? | 16:33 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: is your bios set to boot from usb? | 16:33 |
| Adam313 | recon69_lap, I don't know | 16:33 |
| GridCube | i see 2reasons: 1) it wasnt marked as booteable, b) your computer can't boot into usbs | 16:33 |
| Adam313 | How would I do that | 16:33 |
| recon69_lap | milen8204: well, does it work now after installing the flash plugin? | 16:34 |
| GridCube | Adam313, usually, modern bios have an F11 function that lets you choose the booting media | 16:34 |
| milen8204 | recon69_lap, the adobe flash pug in have been installed whit xubuntu-restricted-extras | 16:34 |
| GridCube | mmhm | 16:35 |
| GridCube | thats correct | 16:35 |
| Adam313 | okay I'm sure it wont work for this | 16:35 |
| Adam313 | so I shall just delete it | 16:35 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: somthing like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8VZ95_XFA8 | 16:35 |
| milen8204 | but still no video | 16:35 |
| GridCube | Adam313, as you please | 16:35 |
| GridCube | milen8204, http://get.adobe.com/es/flashplayer/ | 16:35 |
| vitald | GridCube, it didn't solve my problem. This noise is in any programs and I think that problem is in PulseAudio or somewhere more. | 16:35 |
| GridCube | vitald, sadly, my experience with audiorecording says that hardware noise its pretty common | 16:36 |
| recon69_lap | vitald: opening alsa-mixer can be helpful with soud issues | 16:36 |
| Adam313 | GridCube, I don't know what ahppend | 16:36 |
| Adam313 | now its just not even opening | 16:37 |
| Adam313 | D: | 16:37 |
| GridCube | Adam313, usb keys die all the time | 16:37 |
| Adam313 | GridCube, :/ | 16:37 |
| Adam313 | okay | 16:37 |
| Adam313 | well | 16:38 |
| GridCube | vitald, http://wiki.audacityteam.org/index.php?title=Improving_Recording_Quality | 16:38 |
| Adam313 | brb | 16:38 |
| recon69_lap | lol, I normally lose them long before that, and had one that made it through the wash several times :) | 16:38 |
| milen8204 | I have chrash-report | 16:38 |
| milen8204 | crash-report* | 16:39 |
| GridCube | milen8204, does the get.adobe page said you are running Versión de Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.235 | 16:39 |
| GridCube | ¿? | 16:39 |
| vitald | recon69_lap: I tried to make something in alsa-mixer early, microphone was working perfect in Ubuntu 11.04 and 11.10... | 16:39 |
| milen8204 | GridCube, no it says the package was not found | 16:39 |
| vitald | GridCube, thanks for link but I think that problem isn't in Audacity | 16:39 |
| recon69_lap | vitald: probably some setting, only recently on xubuntu myself | 16:40 |
| GridCube | vitald, :/ | 16:40 |
| GridCube | ok | 16:40 |
| GridCube | vitald, what does pavucontrol settings are? | 16:40 |
| GridCube | maybe you upped the volume a itch too much? | 16:40 |
| GridCube | recon69_lap, http://get.adobe.com/es/flashplayer/ | 16:41 |
| GridCube | this site correct? | 16:41 |
| GridCube | it says you have no flash | 16:41 |
| recon69_lap | vitald: and you have checked out sound setting in the volume control ? | 16:41 |
| GridCube | recon69_lap, thats pavucontrol :) | 16:42 |
| Adam313 | GridCube, I fixed it. | 16:42 |
| Adam313 | lol. | 16:42 |
| Adam313 | not going to get xubuntu yet | 16:42 |
| GridCube | :D | 16:42 |
| Adam313 | gotta get a cd because bios wont work | 16:42 |
| Adam313 | GridCube, It was quite easy, Linux is very advanced though | 16:42 |
| GridCube | :P | 16:42 |
| Adam313 | I had to go through hell and back to get wee chat for irc | 16:42 |
| Adam313 | yesterday | 16:42 |
| Adam313 | I'm switching to Xubuntu because of the horribad repos on min12 | 16:43 |
| GridCube | sudo apt-get install weechat | 16:43 |
| Adam313 | GridCube, Obviously | 16:43 |
| Adam313 | but I had to install | 16:43 |
| Adam313 | extra stuffa | 16:43 |
| Adam313 | and extra stuff | 16:43 |
| Adam313 | and fix errors | 16:43 |
| recon69_lap | Adam313: you just have beginners problems, you'll be apt-getting like the best of us in a week | 16:43 |
| GridCube | lol | 16:43 |
| vitald | GridCube, recon69_lap: volume is normal, I tried different levels, I set 4.0 sound output and stereo input and 6 ch sound in alsamixer. Maybe it connected with my problem? | 16:43 |
| GridCube | Adam313, the livecd has xchat preinstalled | 16:43 |
| Adam313 | GridCube, XChat is not always the best | 16:44 |
| GridCube | dunno vitald thats way too much to my experience level | 16:44 |
| Adam313 | I like WEEChat because it is very Lightweight | 16:44 |
| GridCube | Adam313, but its preinstalled | 16:44 |
| Adam313 | so? | 16:44 |
| recon69_lap | does the disk manager fail for anyone else or just me? | 16:44 |
| Adam313 | irssi is light weight | 16:44 |
| Adam313 | easy to install | 16:44 |
| Adam313 | wee chat is like irssi | 16:44 |
| Adam313 | but with more stuff and basicly better all in all | 16:44 |
| GridCube | how "fail" | 16:44 |
| recon69_lap | "system->disk utility" i mean | 16:44 |
| Adam313 | arch is the best lolololollol | 16:45 |
| GridCube | i dont have that recon69_lap | 16:45 |
| recon69_lap | GridCube: Failed to execute child process "palimpsest" (No such file or directory) | 16:45 |
| Unit193 | Weechat is different than irssi, and clearly you use weechat. They exist for different people. | 16:45 |
| vitald | GridCube, recon69_lap: 4.0 output is working just if i set 6ch in alsamixer. If I set a 4ch pavucontrol is make a fictive output and I have no sound. | 16:45 |
| GridCube | vitald, sorry i dont know :( | 16:46 |
| GridCube | maybe the people on #medibuntu can help you? | 16:46 |
| GridCube | they use xfce now | 16:46 |
| GridCube | so :/ dunno | 16:46 |
| GridCube | sorry | 16:46 |
| vitald | GridCube, sadly but thanks for trying | 16:46 |
| Unit193 | GridCube: #ubuntustudio? | 16:46 |
| GridCube | that | 16:47 |
| recon69_lap | vitald: same here, dont know, just pointed out the sound controls I know of. there was a hardware test app that might be worth looking for | 16:47 |
| GridCube | that one | 16:47 |
| Adam313 | Do any of you use arch? | 16:47 |
| GridCube | :/ why did i say medibuntu? | 16:47 |
| GridCube | vitald, ask on #ubuntustudio | 16:47 |
| vitald | GridCube, thanks a lot | 16:48 |
| Adam313 | you know guys | 16:48 |
| Adam313 | win7 is not bad | 16:48 |
| Adam313 | its good for compatibility | 16:48 |
| pleia2 | Adam313: please take non-support discussion to #xubuntu-offtopic | 16:49 |
| Unit193 | Adam313: You may be better off in #xubuntu-offtopic (Or #ubuntu-offtopic if traffic is low) | 16:49 |

| vitald | recon69_lap: thanks I'll searching something | 16:50 |

| recon69_lap | so no ideas regarding Failed to execute child process "palimpsest" (No such file or directory) | 16:57 |
| laite | recon69_lap: try reinstalling gnome-disk-utility, it should provide /usr/bin/palimpsest | 16:59 |
| === yy-logging is now known as lil-yy | ||
| recon69_lap | laite: that fixed it, odd that it was missing, a installer bug? | 17:01 |
| recon69_lap | also getting "The 'Manual' browser command has been chosen, but no command has been set." when i click links in pidgin | 17:02 |
| laite | recon69_lap: Check pidgin preferences->Browser, select something else from dropdown-menu (firefox etc. should be an option) | 17:03 |
| laite | Tools->preferences, that is :) | 17:03 |
| recon69_lap | laite: thx, forgot to look for preferences in the panel icon | 17:04 |

| bril | Hi | 18:11 |
| bril | Just installed Xubuntu on a eee pc with 4 gb. I choose the alternate cd because I have only 4 gb on that laptop | 18:12 |
| bril | But I get online a terminal after installing | 18:12 |
| bril | alternate is also with a gui I thought? | 18:12 |
| recon69_lap | maybe startx | 18:13 |
| classic | oh wow | 18:13 |
| classic | GridCube, | 18:13 |
| classic | you here | 18:13 |
| classic | wait nvm | 18:14 |
| === classic is now known as Adadm313 | ||
| === Adadm313 is now known as Adam313 | ||
| === Adam313 is now known as classic | ||
| bril | I now try to install the desktop, but that wont work because I have no 4.4 gb | 18:14 |
| === classic is now known as Adam313 | ||
| recon69_lap | bril: the UI fits on a CD ?? | 18:15 |
| bril | Only have usb | 18:16 |
| bril | I set up a bootable usb disk | 18:16 |
| bril | I am now very technical, and my English is also not that good | 18:16 |
| bril | :) | 18:16 |
| bril | But i made a bootable usb disk with the alternate iso and after installing I only had a terminal. | 18:17 |
| GridCube | bril, no, the alternate has not gui | 18:17 |
| bril | hm | 18:18 |
| bril | then we have a problem :) | 18:18 |
| GridCube | bril, what you need? | 18:18 |
| recon69_lap | sound like he wants a xubuntu desktop in under 4gb | 18:19 |
| bril | Well, it is an old laptop with only 4 gb disk. Very small so usefull for places where i wanna have a laptop but not my normal one. On holidays and things like that | 18:19 |
| bril | but all the linux distro's want 4 gb or more | 18:20 |
| GridCube | bril, try tinycore or slax | 18:20 |
| GridCube | tinycore does the work, i like it | 18:21 |
| GridCube | you need like 100mb for a whole desktop with it | 18:21 |
| bril | lets google it | 18:21 |
| bril | it for my girlfriend actually. | 18:21 |
| bril | so things like a brower, a chatprogramma must be availbe. | 18:22 |
| Unit193 | AntiX, SliTaz, Puppy(-lucid)....... :P | 18:22 |
| GridCube | oh, puppy is nice too | 18:22 |
| GridCube | and slitaz | 18:23 |
| GridCube | thats good too | 18:23 |
| * GridCube thinks this is #xubuntu-offtopic material | 18:23 | |
| Unit193 | It really is. | 18:24 |
| bril | well, I got my answer: Xubuntu doesnt work for that laptop anymore | 18:24 |
| bril | no gui = no option so i gonna test slitaz | 18:24 |
| bril | thanks you guys | 18:25 |
| GridCube | bril, the alternate disk has no gui, the installation do | 18:25 |
| Unit193 | Also, you could go from the mini and just install what you need (openbox, fluxbox) | 18:25 |
| bril | GridCube, i am very new. So correct me if I am wrong, but the gui is that use can use your mouse and see graphics. Not only a terminal | 18:26 |
| bril | it that right? | 18:26 |
| GridCube | yes | 18:27 |
| GridCube | graphic user interface = gui | 18:27 |
| bril | yes ok, then I understand it. | 18:27 |
| bril | install what i need is no option, i dont wanna spend to much time on it | 18:28 |
| bril | I looking for a complete solutions | 18:28 |
| bril | for a normale user | 18:28 |
| GridCube | bril, slitaz or tinycore | 18:29 |
| GridCube | or puppy | 18:29 |
| recon69_lap | bril: you mean gf user | 18:29 |
| bril | :) | 18:30 |
| bril | I like to figure out some new things in Linux, she dont | 18:30 |
| bril | but i am gonna try slitaz now, and if that doesnt work i gonna buy a budget laptop | 18:30 |
| bril | this 2004 crap is old | 18:31 |
| recon69_lap | bril: or buy a 32mb flash drive :) | 18:31 |
| recon69_lap | gb opps | 18:31 |
| Adam313 | 32mb? | 18:31 |
| bril | Well, that is no option, she need the flash drive because on holdidays you make pictures and wanne email them direct to your friends. | 18:32 |
| bril | women... | 18:32 |
| bril | sd i mean | 18:32 |
| pleia2 | bril: please don't be like that | 18:32 |
| milen8204 | GridCube, Should I type Xubuntu except Ubuntu in that command: sudo sh amd-driver-installer-12-4-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/precise | 18:35 |
| GridCube | milen8204, i dont know | 18:44 |

| cymbalkid | ello mates | 20:36 |
| cymbalkid | anywho their? | 20:36 |
| Unit193 | Yep. | 20:37 |
| Unit193 | !anyone | 20:37 |
| ubottu | A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 20:37 |
| cymbalkid | i didnt know it was such a sin to say "anywho their?" | 20:38 |
| cymbalkid | lol | 20:38 |
| Ocelot92 | quote... | 20:39 |
| Unit193 | " <--- There you go! | 20:40 |
| Ocelot92 | has someone problem with something? | 20:41 |
| Ocelot92 | *anyone | 20:41 |
| astraljava | Just good fun, but maybe a tad in the wrong channel. :) cymbalkid, the thing is, this is not a place for general chat, so Unit193 was trying to educate you via the factoids. | 20:43 |
| xubuntu521 | unetbootin dd winimage? witch | 21:00 |
| xubuntu521 | ? | 21:00 |

| martinphone | does any of you use chromium with a proxy? | 21:47 |
| Unit193 | I do not like that browser, but you can open a terminal and type http_proxy="127.0.0.1:8123" chromium-browser to get it. | 21:51 |
| * Unit193 gone | 21:51 | |
| sankey | will xfce 4.10 have to wait until xubuntu 12.10 to hit official repos? | 22:09 |
| crond | sankey, I believe so, since 12.04 is an LTS, I don't think they tend to update major package versions, but I could be wrong. However, there is a ppa for 4.10. | 22:16 |
| sankey | crond: okay, but for sure we'll never see 4.10 in the 12.04 liveCD, right? | 22:17 |
| pleia2 | that's right (and the ppa isn't officially supported, may not work as expected sometimes) | 22:17 |
| pleia2 | sankey: right | 22:17 |
| * crond decides to try the 4.10 PPA and see if everything will die horribly. | 22:17 | |
| sankey | i hope it works, i'm trying to get a friend to use linux, and xubuntu is looking like a good option | 22:18 |
| sankey | and he like the half-screen window tiling/snap in windows | 22:19 |
| sankey | i suppose unity is a good option too | 22:19 |
| crond | seems functional. so far. | 22:25 |
| crond | o_O | 22:27 |
| sankey | eh? | 22:27 |
| crond | power manager says I have 10 hours of battery | 22:27 |
| crond | that can't be right. | 22:27 |
| sankey | how does that work, takes the average consumption over time? | 22:28 |
| sankey | maybe it needs more samples | 22:28 |
| crond | I'm guessing so | 22:28 |
| crond | ahh, adjusting my screen brightness also makes a major difference. | 22:28 |
| sankey | according to this PDF i found on google, the difference between high and low screen brightness is 3.5 -> 0.5 watts | 22:30 |
| sankey | on a particular laptop from like 5 years ago | 22:30 |
| sankey | if your laptop idles at 10 watts, then 3 watts *does* make a big difference | 22:31 |
