[00:09] <campee> how can i get the dock at the bottom of the screen to not auto-hide?
[01:32] <nerdistmonk> can someone help, i just updated to pulseaudio 2.0 on xubuntu 12.04 and ive lost sound
[01:41] <Unit193> Dang, just pulled up a very handdy link too. :(
[01:41] <genii-around> Perhaps post it anyways for educational purposes.
[03:53] <quentin_> hello, I need help with MyPaint, I really like the program and it works well on my UbuntuStudio, but in Xbuntu 12.04 It works but only as long as I keep my cursor on the canvas, as soon as It touches any thing but it stops drawing, every thing else works but it just does not draw.
[03:54] <quentin_> this is an issue because I often wish to change brushes but this limits me to one.
[03:55] <quentin_> I am running on a rather old toshiba laptop using a default Hp lazer mouse.
[03:58] <holstein> quentin_: i would launch it from the terminal and see if you see any messages that help
[03:59] <holstein> i would probably look for a newer version and try it
[04:00] <quentin_> ok what would I type in terminal?
[04:00] <holstein> quentin_: i would start with mypaint
[04:00] <holstein> you can type my and hit tab... see what comes up
[04:01] <quentin_> well now I feel silly for asking
[04:01] <quentin_> Ignoring "USB Optical Mouse" (probably a mouse, but it reports extra axes) device change: Core Pointer <enum GDK_SOURCE_MOUSE of type GdkInputSource>
[04:03] <holstein> thats probably something for the bug report... are you using the latest from http://mypaint.intilinux.com/
[04:08] <quentin_> yup just reinstalled nothing, I guess but report.
[04:08] <holstein> quentin_: bug*
[04:09] <holstein> you can try an older version... you can try the windows version in wine
[04:09] <holstein> you can take this opportunity to file a bug report and start using GIMP
[04:16] <quentin_> I have gimp but MyPaint is ideal for me, gimp is just for correcting my mistakes.
[04:17] <holstein> gimp is, and likely always will be well developed
[04:17] <holstein> use what works for you... im just saying, it is the tool we have that is well developed
[04:27] <Azelphur> I installed this theme http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/AdwaitaWolfe?content=143354 and most things are unthemed, any ideas?
[04:28] <Unit193> It's because you need one that supports GTK3 as well.
[04:28] <laite> Unit193: that theme seems to have gtk3-configs in it
[04:28] <Azelphur> indeed, that theme is categorised as a gtk 3 theme
[04:29] <Azelphur> stuff that is themed: file-roller, gnome system monitor. Stuff that isn't: Pidgin, thunar
[04:29] <Azelphur> some examples \o/
[04:29] <Azelphur> I dunno actually, in pidgin and thunar the menu bars are themed, but everything else seems not to be
[04:30] <Azelphur> I'll try a different theme, maybe it's just that theme
[04:31] <Unit193> That theme didn't have xfwm and such in it though.
[04:32] <Azelphur> ah
[04:32] <Azelphur> Unit193: I'm using compiz instead of xf4wm
[04:34] <Azelphur> yea, same issue with another gtk3 theme I downloaded
[04:34] <Unit193> Shimmer always worked best for me, but there was another that wasn't bad.
[04:34] <Unit193> "Zukitwo"
[04:35] <Azelphur> hehe, got a link to shimmer?
[04:36] <Unit193> http://shimmerproject.org/
[04:36] <Unit193> They are the default ones, and one that isn't ready yet but I use. :P
[04:36] <Azelphur> fun
[04:37] <Unit193> I "need" a dark theme, so Blackbird turned out well, even though it's not quite ready.
[04:40] <Azelphur> I'm even worse, I "need" a theme that has totally black backgrounds, ie #000, not grey :)
[04:43] <Azelphur> Unit193: do you mean greybird?
[04:44] <Unit193> That's not a bad theme, but no.
[04:44] <Azelphur> where's blackbird at? :)
[04:44] <Unit193> Their github page.
[04:45] <Azelphur> cool, ty
[04:46] <Unit193> Note, it's not done and a few things are off, or black on black.
[04:48] <Azelphur> haha, blackbird has exactly the same issue as the dark them I tried first
[04:48] <Azelphur> lots of white everywhere :(
[04:51] <Unit193> Weird, I have full black.  Seems like a compiz thing then.
[04:51] <Azelphur> maybe, Atolm-gtk3 works
[08:46] <MordFustang> sup
[09:34] <xubuntu953> hello there
[09:47] <Joshun> hi
[09:48] <Joshun> does anybody know how to disable the annoying 'Enter your password' prompt that pops up in google chrome because of gnome keyring
[09:51] <Joshun> oh solved it by making a custom bash alias
[12:26] <craigbass1976> Is there a way to get rid of Recently Used every time I hit Open in an app's file menu?  Is this XFCE or the apps I'm using?
[12:58] <mlpokn> hey
[12:58] <mlpokn> I cannot install flash through Flash-Aid on Xubuntu
[12:58] <mlpokn> libflashplayer.so
[12:58] <mlpokn> [sudo] password for fdsdaa:
[12:58] <mlpokn> mv: cannot move `libflashplayer.so' to `/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/': No such file or directory
[13:13] <Nino> Hello,what does this information in synaptic means? It shows sometimes when i install packages  in synaptic(when everything installed this shows in synaptic console-log at bottom but not every time ) : W: Waited for dpkg --assert-multi-arch but it wasn't there - dpkgGo (10: No child processes)
[13:18] <craigbass1976> I don't know Nino, but I've noticed the GUI package manager farting out more lately and just to a apt-get update and apt-get upgrade, which seems to go better for some reason.
[13:18] <craigbass1976> and just DO a, not just TO a.  SOrry
[13:21] <Nino> @craigbass1976  I agree,it is best way t install by apt-get update trough console... But funny thing is that everything installs normal trough synaptic also,but sometimes randomly this bug or information just reveal it self at the end of line in synaptic console :)
[13:22] <craigbass1976> No idea.  Just smile and say "Well, it could be Windows..."  :)
[13:23] <Nino> Lol... :)
[14:36] <blackgatocatnegr> Hello, Is there a "Advice before upgrading" faq somewhere?
[16:00] <chestwood96> hi
[16:01] <chestwood96> who can i ask questions?
[16:01] <genii-around> The channel in general
[16:01] <chestwood96> can ayone read me?
[16:01] <shpank> no.
[16:01] <chestwood96> what do you mean whit heneral?
[16:01] <chestwood96> general sorry
[16:02] <genii-around> chestwood96: Yes. Best to just ask whatever your question is. Then if someone knows, they will guide you.
[16:03] <chestwood96> ok im trying to setup xubuntu on a very old pc an the problem is during boot the screen doesnt get any signal anymore
[16:03] <chestwood96> im swiss so sorry for my english
[16:04] <chestwood96> any idea what the problem is or do you need more infos?
[16:05] <chestwood96> the pc is realy old it has a 750mhz prozessor
[16:06] <chestwood96> no sugestions?
[16:07] <TheMaster> This is booting from the LiveCD?
[16:08] <chestwood96> yes the cd ive burned from that iso i downloaded
[16:09] <chestwood96> the computer seems to be working i just kant see anything
[16:09] <TheMaster> Think it'd be good to try one of the other boot options.
[16:09] <TheMaster> !bootoptions
[16:10] <chestwood96> how should i doo that it boots from the cd then there is a loadescreen and then no signal
[16:12] <chestwood96> i dont realy understand that
[16:18] <TheMaster> When/before it starts booting, hold the shift key and you should get the chance to set those, will have the info at the bottom of the scree.
[16:26] <chestwood96> sorry the internet crashed
[16:27] <chestwood96> an external cd drive caused the same problem
[16:28] <chestwood96> did you have any soloutions i missed?
[16:28] <holstein> chestwood96: personally, when i am in your situation, and feel arguably "underskilled", i try live CD's.. i try the LTS releases.. ubuntu 10.04 and 12.04
[16:28] <holstein> chestwood96: its likely that nomodeset will help for you.. you need to press shift when booting, and F6 will give you the option to add "nomodeset"
[16:28] <holstein> get a live CD booting live, then go from there :)
[16:29] <chestwood96> ok thanks ill try
[16:29] <TheMaster> Or just go with an alternate, but it's nice to know that it works beforehand.
[16:29] <chestwood96> alternative?
[16:30] <bazhang> !alternate | chestwood96
[16:32] <chestwood96> ok
[16:32] <chestwood96> looks good lets see if it works thanks anyway
[16:34] <SandJ> chestwood96 - do you have a video output on the motherboard and another video output from a graphics card?  If so, when the screen disappears, plug the monitor into the other socket.  (I had that problem.)
[16:36] <chestwood96> i just have one display port
[16:38] <chestwood96> its just a tiny industrial pc
[16:39] <Sandro_> hello
[16:39] <chestwood96> hi
[16:40] <Sandro_> i'm looking for some help since no one respond to me on #ubuntu i came here :)
[16:40] <SandJ> What's the problem, Sandro_
[16:40] <Sandro_> My Amazon server has an issue with 100% inode, >>> we are looking to supress a directory which contain thousand of files in it ... but rm-rf * doesn't respond atm
[16:41] <Sandro_> what could i do ?
[16:41] <chestwood96> nomode didnt work ill try the alternativ
[16:41] <Sandro_> we are running on an Ubuntu dsitrib
[16:45] <SandJ> Does the "rm -rf *" go away and not come back, or come back straight away?
[16:46] <Sandro_> nothing
[16:46] <SandJ> What do you mean by "nothing"?
[16:46] <Sandro_> it just doesn't respond ... and ctrl+c respond instantly
[16:47] <Sandro_> we waited about 1hour straight  the command just doesn't come back
[16:47] <SandJ> Do you have thousands and thousands of files on there?
[16:47] <Sandro_> yes
[16:47] <TheMaster> Try rm -rfv see if you have any output.
[16:47] <Sandro_> Huge news +Portal
[16:48] <TheMaster> And SandJ is hinting that it would take a while the more files you have.
[16:48] <Sandro_> yeah we know about that :/ that is why we are looking for a dirrent way to supress the content
[16:48] <Sandro_> rm -rfv does respond but doesn't do anything
[16:50] <Sandro_> we are currently creating an other volume  in case we don't find any solutions... but it's quite a pain in the ass :'(
[16:50] <TheMaster> "does respond but doesn't do anything"?
[16:50] <TheMaster> And using Xubuntu on a server isn't really the best idea.
[16:51] <Sandro_> like i said earlier we are not on xubuntu but since no one respond on the other IRC chann i came here :)
[16:52] <TheMaster> Best bet would be to try #ubuntu-server, ask, then wait a bit.
[16:52] <SandJ> I last saw this problem some years ago on a HP-UX Unix box that had a stupid huge number of files.  Deleting the files in batches was the solution, e.g. rm a*   rm b*   rm c*   and so on, such that each rm command only deleted a few hundred files at a time.
[16:53] <SandJ> Do you want the entire file system wiped, because that would be very quick.  :-)
[16:53] <Sandro_> we tried this also >> dind't work
[16:53] <SandJ> Also, how about copying off the files you want to keep, then recreating the file system?
[16:53] <Sandro_> we are currently doing this ^^
[16:56] <SandJ> So what does   rm -rv *   do?  Does it come straight back to the command prompt, or does it list files, or does it seem to do nothing and you have to do a ^C?
[16:58] <Sandro_> it seems to do nothing
[17:03] <SandJ> I wonder if this would work any better:     find . -exec rm {} \;
[17:04] <SandJ> Or:    find . -exec rm -v {} \;
[17:06] <Sandro_> Thx for your help ^^but our team leader decided to stop this non sense and just focus on the creation of  a new file system :/
[17:07] <Sandro_> it has been a pleasure and again thx for your answers
[17:14] <SandJ> It's a shame he went.  I just created 300,000 random files and worked out rm would appear to do nothing while this command would work a treat:    find . -exec rm {} \;
[17:17] <SandJ> If only he'd waited another few hours on his rm command, he would have been rewarded with 'bash: /bin/rm: Argument list too long'
[17:46] <drc> no xubuntu alpha this time?
[17:47] <bazhang> drc, #ubuntu+1 for 12.10 , if that's what you mean
[17:47] <drc> that's what I meant, but don't need help, just wondering why no alpha?
[17:48] <TheMaster> drc: No there isn't, not enough testing.
[17:48] <drc> Sounds like a good reason to me.
[17:49] <bazhang> there's the daily build
[17:49] <drc> wait...does that mean not enough testing was dome to warrent an alpha, or not enough changes that need testing to warrent an alpha?
[17:50] <TheMaster> bazhang: No there isn't, not of live. ;)
[17:50] <TheMaster> drc: Not enough testers, if I understood.
[17:51] <bazhang> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/daily-live/current/
[17:53] <TheMaster> Weird, last I checked one arch was missing on one of the CDs.
[18:01] <Liole> hey all. have anybody of you have resolution problems?
[18:24] <chestwood96> it kinda fails still
[18:59] <Zoohouse> superuser: You made it. haha
[19:01] <superuser> i cant find the package gmount-iso , do i need to add a repo?
[19:02] <superuser> Zoohouse, i cant find the package gmount-iso , do i need to add a repo?
[19:02] <Zoohouse> i know I saw the question. hold on
[19:03] <linuxshine> hello I am trying to create a launcher to launch the TerminalEmulator as root i have tried [gksu | gksudo | ktsuss] exo-open --launch TerminalEmulator and none of them worked someone over at #xfce said TerminalEmulator  might not be defined for root dose anyone have knowledge of getting this to work?
[19:03] <Zoohouse> superuser: sudo apt-get install gmountiso
[19:04] <superuser> E: Unable to locate package Gmount-iso
[19:04] <pleia2> superuser: no dash, just gmountiso
[19:05] <genii-around> Also all lowercase
[19:05] <superuser> alright im trying it
[19:06] <superuser> E: Unable to locate package gmountiso     :(
[19:06] <genii-around> !info gmountiso
[19:07] <superuser> is it a repo problem then?
[19:07] <Zoohouse> it may be in the universe
[19:07] <genii-around> superuser: Did you do first: sudo apt-get update
[19:08] <genii-around> Also, yes, you might not have universe repository enabled...
[19:08] <superuser> updateing..
[19:09] <superuser> yes after update same error
[19:10] <pleia2> linuxshine: I don't know if "exo-open" can do things as grandular as opening as a specific user, you might just need to use "gksudo xfterm4" (rather than having the benefit of the default TerminalEmulator)
[19:10] <Zoohouse> superuser: Here's an old explanation on how to enable the universe. http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-enable-the-universe-and-multiverse-repositories-in-ubuntu-804-hardy.html
[19:11] <superuser> kk
[19:12] <Zoohouse> superuser: basicly open synaptic, sudo synaptic, then settings > repositories and make sure universe and multiverse are checked
[19:13] <linuxshine> pleia2 thanks I kinda figured that was the way things were pointing
[19:13] <Zoohouse> superuser: if you are curious about what the universe and multiverse are, read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[19:15] <superuser> i dont have ether of thoes apt lines in my list
[19:16] <Zoohouse> superuser: look at the picture from here: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-enable-the-universe-and-multiverse-repositories-in-ubuntu-804-hardy.html
[19:16] <Zoohouse> you need to check off where the person drew with a red circle
[19:17] <Zoohouse> superuser: Here's another explanation http://linux.about.com/od/xubuntu_doc/a/xubudg13t05.htm
[19:18] <superuser> i dont have that gui to do that, but "sources.list file"  dosent show any mutiverse or universe reops
[19:19] <Zoohouse> superuser: did you see the second link i sent?
[19:19] <genii-around> superuser: What says the result of: head -n1 /etc/apt/sources.list
[19:20] <genii-around> ( I wonder if cdrom only is enabled)
[19:24]  * Zoohouse wonders what may have happed to superuser
