[05:43] <xubuntu005> hi, i've got a problem
[05:43] <xubuntu005> somebody can help me, please¿
[05:45] <LinXz> no one will know, until you say what the problem is...
[06:37] <CellTech> good question for a stupid set up.. Have VBox, Need to allow usb in VBoxUsers. However. Said users is not in the "Users and Groups" catagory...
[07:17] <linuxshine> can someone tell me where the default wallpaper folder is located?
[07:20] <well_laid_lawn> linuxshine: see if this helps http://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=5317
[07:21] <linuxshine> I just did locate found it I was in the wrong folder
[07:21] <linuxshine> was looking in local it was in share
[07:22] <linuxshine> Thanks well_laid_lawn
[07:22] <well_laid_lawn> cheers :)
[07:31] <missmimi> hi hello- i am running xubuntu 12.04 i installed via usb made with livelinux erased hard drive to install completely and everything was fine until i installed various software from linux software center then crashed and upon reboot i find i cannot boot into OS from hard disk or from usb. i have a log from check disk.
[07:32] <missmimi> also this has happened quiet i few times...i had ubuntu before and the same thing happened i could reboot fine for awhile then this same issue
[07:33] <missmimi> also after software. someone told me it sounded like a hardware issue though so i want to try to be sure before going and making another disk sitting thru another install and config the system again
[07:33] <linuxshine> what did you install?
[07:34] <missmimi> well i only selecting a few programs but they had packages and it didnt ask me if i wanted to install those...just did where ubuntu used to ask me
[07:34] <missmimi> not sure of all of them but thought maybe problem was ttf-mscore
[07:35] <linuxshine> dose grub load?
[07:35] <missmimi> which i saw after install i didnt need but couldnt find how to uninstall
[07:35] <missmimi> the grub screen loads yes
[07:36] <linuxshine> can you boot to recovery? maybe broken packages?
[07:36] <missmimi> but i cannot boot completely into any mode  i was able to check disk i can edit and command prompt but unfortunately cannot recover
[07:36] <missmimi> it stops says badRAM
[07:36] <missmimi> amoung a long list of course but that stood out
[07:39] <missmimi> also when i go into edit with E from grub it appears to only have a short section from the msdos section of the boot file i was wondering if fixing that manually may help
[07:41] <linuxshine> why do you have to make another disk?
[07:41] <linuxshine> cant you just boot into live disc
[07:42] <missmimi> i could but then i lose the infor each time no? if i just choose "try" oh if you mean currently no the usb also returns that boot error now
[07:43] <missmimi> which made me think maybe it was from taking it out without ejecting it but maybe thats a stretch
[07:44] <LinXz> this is starting to sound like a hardware problem; I've never had a computer stop loading a system in any media tried, unless there is a problem with the hardware.
[07:46] <missmimi> any thought on what that hardware problem could possibly be? i dont know much about that stuff really
[07:46] <missmimi> not sure what i would do next
[07:46] <well_laid_lawn> the live cd should have a menu entry for memtest
[07:46] <well_laid_lawn> I would try that
[07:48] <missmimi> i did that but didnt finish because i dont know what it meant i did get 1 error returned in test 3
[07:48] <well_laid_lawn> try it again and write the error down maybe
[07:49] <well_laid_lawn> it does sound like a memory issue
[07:49] <missmimi> could it be a failed RAM stick because i do believe its possible i have one of those from a previous windows issue
[07:50] <well_laid_lawn> yes a failed ram stick means the same as a memory issue - the same thing
[07:50] <missmimi> ah thanks
[07:51] <missmimi> so in theory if that where it and i removed that stick at put in a functional one it would be solved
[07:51] <missmimi> right?
[07:51] <well_laid_lawn> it should be ok yes
[07:57] <missmimi> super i know i have some good ones somewhere this helps a lot thank you i will try it in the morning and run the tests thanks
[08:29] <linuxshine> is there anything in the works that will allow file transfers to be paused?
[09:45] <well_laid_lawn> linuxshine: you might get an answer to that in #xfce
[09:45] <well_laid_lawn> I dunno
[09:52] <linuxshine> yea I brought it up over there just need to find a developer that has the knowledge time and interest to make it happen
[09:53] <linuxshine> it would really set thunar apart from the crowd
[09:54] <baizon> linuxshine: write a suggestion
[09:54] <baizon> linuxshine: https://mail.xfce.org/mailman/listinfo/thunar-dev
[09:55] <baizon> or you can use bugzilla

[09:55] <baizon> ups, sorry. Didnt know the link is so long
[09:55] <linuxshine> lol
[09:57] <linuxshine> I will write a request later today after a nap
[10:44] <rhin0> anyone know how to set up pulseaudio (is it) sound server so I can play from networked pc through server speakers
[10:59] <odradek> hello, my BT doesn't work on xubuntu 12.04 / xfce 4.10 so I unistall all related. I can't seem to find a solution with software center. What must I do ?
[11:08] <odradek> any suggestion on bluetooth ?
[11:11] <SandJ> Do you mean your BT broadband connection?
[11:12] <odradek> nope, only bluetooth
[11:13] <SandJ> Is that a USB dongle that plugs into the computer?
[11:13] <odradek> I want to connect my phone to computer via bluetooth
[11:13] <odradek> not a dongle an internal BT in laptop
[11:14] <odradek> blueman is somehow buggy so I unistalled everything related
[11:14] <odradek> wireless is working tho
[11:27] <SandJ> odradek, is this so you can use the microphone and speaker on your computer as a phone, or so you can use the phone as a Skype handset, or the phone as an internet connection, or something else?
[11:34] <SandJ> oh, he's gone.  So much for booting the wife's netbook from Xubuntu 12.04 CD and getting it talking to her bluetooth mobile phone.  Thanks for waiting, odradek, while I did this for you.
[11:46] <stianhj> Is there someway to remove the Desktop folder?
[11:46] <stianhj> or move it
[11:46] <stianhj> I like my folders all lowercase
[11:46] <rhin0> http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2156965/Ed-Balls-splashed-thousands-private-poll-voters-dont-like--case-hes-doubt-new-MoS-survey-reveals-hes-untrustworthy-opportunist.html?ITO=google_news_rss_feed&google_editors_picks=true
[11:47] <rhin0> oops wrong channel
[12:08] <LinXz> Can I have a peronal opinion on this channel?
[12:11] <SandJ> I don't think they have yet brought in thought-crime legislation for IRC.  Yet.  So by all means, have an opinion.
[12:11] <LinXz> my opinion is not welcome on #Ubuntu - I'm not politically correct for the people there, I guess...
[12:12] <LinXz> I HATE politically correct BS!
[12:15] <SandJ> Now, now.  It's not BS any more.  'BS' is sexist: cows poo too.
[12:15] <LinXz> sorry, but; LIKE I CARE! ;)
[12:15] <SandJ> :-)
[12:17] <LinXz> I used to clean up cow poo when I was young... :P
[12:17] <LinXz> wow... how did you do that, SandJ?
[12:39] <Kingsy> guys what music player do you all use? gmusicbrowser?
[12:45] <Kingsy> I am kinda looking around for someting else cos it gives me these errors --> Playing error : Resource not found. at /usr/bin/../share/gmusicbrowser/gmusicbrowser_gstreamer-0.10.pm line 135. <-- only sometimes.. seems random
[12:47] <laite> Kingsy: you could ask in #gmusicbrowser about that, the author squentin is usually very helpful
[12:47] <laite> or perhaps try changing to some other interface in preferences->audio - tab
[12:48] <Kingsy> thanks for the info nice one
[12:56] <SandJ> Kingsy - which version of Xubuntu?
[12:57] <SandJ> There is a bug in 11.10 whereby it defaults to one player but installs another.
[12:57] <Kingsy> I am on 12.04
[12:57] <Kingsy> it hasnt done it in a while.. perhaps I did something to the files and now I have refreshed the library its alright
[12:58] <Kingsy> what music player do you guys use?
[12:58] <SandJ> I am happy with Parole.  Exaile is OK too.  Everyone else recommends gmusicbrowser.
[12:58] <Kingsy> yeah, I was just looking for a nice UI tbh
[12:59] <laite> Kingsy: there are a lot of music players for linux, just try them out to find what you like best =)
[12:59] <laite> personally, if there wasn't gmb I would use rhythmbox or clementine
[13:01] <SandJ> It seems to be a bit like "Which is the best car?" - there is no one answer.
[13:02] <laite> exactly =)
[13:02] <Kingsy> heh yeha
[13:02] <SandJ> Which, I suppose, demonstrates Linux really is mainstream now.  It's no longer "There's an alternative to Windows", it's which Linux? and which apps? too.
[13:03] <SandJ> Hurrah!  Linux has arrived!
[13:04] <SandJ> Now, I'm going back to playing Oolite, the modern open-source version of Elite... which I run under Linux, of course...  :-)
[13:26] <newbie01> hola a todos

[14:32] <Drizamanuber> ciao a tutti, non riesco ad installare una chiavetta internet della vodafone su xubuntu 12.04
[14:38] <Drizamanuber> non riesco a installare la chiavetta vodafone
[15:24] <xubuntu303> hello！！！
[15:24] <xubuntu303> please help
[15:24] <baizon> !ask
[15:25] <xubuntu303> I am using xubuntu 12.04
[15:25] <crond> xubuntu303, you need to ask a question.
[15:26] <baizon> i think hes writing hes problem at the moment :)
[15:26] <xubuntu303> But if I minimize a program window，I can not recover it
[15:26] <xubuntu303> How can I solve this bug？
[15:26] <crond> xubuntu303, it doesn't minimize to the bar up top?
[15:26] <crond> did you delete panel 1 or something?
[15:27] <xubuntu303> NO， this is a new system
[15:28] <baizon> alt+tab doesnt help
[15:28] <xubuntu303> sory maybe my question is unclear
[15:28] <xubuntu303> alt+tab is available
[15:28] <baizon> is it working?
[15:29] <baizon> does the minimized window show with alt+tab?
[15:29] <xubuntu303> yes
[15:29] <baizon> ok
[15:30] <baizon> try to remove the panel window addon and recreate it
[15:30] <xubuntu303> but when I click the minimized Taskbar
[15:30] <xubuntu303> @baizon how can I do it？
[15:31] <baizon> xubuntu303: http://pclosmag.com/html/Issues/201203/images/page02_01.png
[15:31] <baizon> add new item
[15:32] <baizon> or right click and panel preferences
[15:32] <baizon> and then the items tab

[15:38] <baizon> good luck
[15:38] <xubuntu303> ok，good night
[15:38] <uskerine> is there equivalent to passwd but in graphic mode for XFCE or GNOME?
[15:38] <uskerine> is there any equivalent to passwd but in graphic mode for XFCE or GNOME?
[15:40] <baizon> uskerine: http://askubuntu.com/questions/66718/how-to-manage-users-and-groups
[15:40] <uskerine> i don't want that stuff baizon
[15:40] <uskerine> i am looking for a simple and plain graphic replacement for passwd, just that
[15:41] <uskerine> it is for a thin client environment
[15:41] <baizon> it is more work to implement a gui for passwd then using the terminal
[15:41] <baizon> so it will be hard to find a too
[15:41] <baizon> tool
[15:42] <uskerine> i guess so
[15:42] <baizon> open terminal -> passwd is very easy :)
[15:42] <uskerine> i would like to avoid opening a terminal
[15:42] <uskerine> i am blocking terminal access to users
[15:43] <uskerine> if i run passwd, it opens a whole terminal window, where they can open a new terminal and start launching commands
[15:43] <baizon> yes but it would have to load a gui libery and a script which run passwd :)
[15:43] <uskerine> in xubuntu it loads a whole terminal window
[15:43] <uskerine> you got stuck directly to passwd, which is fine
[15:43] <uskerine> but you can also browse the terminal menu and "open a new terminal"
[15:45] <knome> uskerine, you are asking a really niche thing - there might be a tool what you are looking for somewhere, but it ain't shipped with xubuntu
[15:46] <knome> uskerine, not what most people would like to have anyway
[15:47] <uskerine> ok thanks
[15:47] <uskerine> i know it is niche app
[15:47] <uskerine> but it makes sense
[15:47] <uskerine> as in a thin client environment, you do not want users messing around terminal windows
[15:48] <uskerine> i managed to block access from everywhere, but now terminal access is again on gui if i use passwd
[17:08] <ion_> http://pastebin.com/bi6GMHPY
[17:09] <ion_> I  tryied to install proprietary drivers and I couldn't ...
[17:09] <ion_> anyone can help me out please...

[17:10] <ion_> I put the output on the pastbin...
[17:10] <ion_> http://pastebin.com/bi6GMHPY
[17:12] <ion_> seems it works fine my laptop but afterwhile the tool bar disappear...
[17:12] <ion_> perhaps is that the reason...
[17:13] <ion_> kind of bug the I can't solve it...
[17:17] <lordcirth> So, will Xubuntu 12.10 have XFCE 4.10 ?
[19:39] <ball> From the command line, how do I find out what packages are installed?
[19:51] <astraljava> ball: `dpkg -l` | grep ii

[19:53] <ball> astraljava: Thanks

[20:06] <stasy> hello! I have recently installed xubuntu and now it freezes sometimes. It surely freezes after closing chromium and when I try to change settings of screensaver (now it switch off). In syslog after freezing appears message like "  NVRM: Xid (0000:01:00): 13, 0001 00000000 00005097 0000194c 00000000 00000080 " I know that this is about my nvidia card. What cand I do with this problem?
[20:36] <stasy> Can somebody help me with my question? I maybe missed answer because I logged off from the channel  for a while.
[20:40] <mongy> stasy, I don't have nvidia or ever used it in linux but you might wanna install the proprietary driver from the Additional Drivers app
[20:41] <stasy> i have proprietary driver for nvidia
[21:22] <linuxshine> hello can anyone tell me where the software center stores its history for installations and removals?
[21:27] <uskerine> how can i copy all files from /home/user to /etc/skel
[21:27] <uskerine> including directories and hidden files/directories?
[21:30] <well_laid_lawn> uskerine: you can have a look at the -A option to cp it might be what you want
[21:30] <uskerine> i will have a look thanks well_laid_lawn
[21:30] <uskerine> can't see -A option in man
[21:31] <well_laid_lawn> sorry I keep doing that, it's the -a option
[21:32] <well_laid_lawn> I'd do a test first
[21:32] <uskerine> i can't get the hidden files copied
[21:32] <uskerine> if i do
[21:33] <uskerine> cp -a /home/user/ /etc/skel/
[21:33] <uskerine> then i get user directory under /etc/skel/
[21:33] <uskerine> which is not what i want
[21:33] <uskerine> if i do cp -a /home/user/* /ec/skel
[21:33] <uskerine> then i don't get the hidden files copied
[21:36] <well_laid_lawn> to get the hidden files you need to copy the directory or add a second step to copy the hidden files
[21:37] <well_laid_lawn> try   cp -r {*,.*}
[21:42] <AssociateX> Hello channel. I'm getting at crash at bootup with colord. Then on the install after about what think is probably half way through the install window disappears, I ran "ubiquity --pdb" in a terminal but got no error message when it crashed. The mouse looked busy so I waited like ten minute and the install window started over, I went through the process a couple more times. Where should I start on this? Is this a known issue. Tha
[21:43] <AssociateX> opp's, the crash with colord is at the start of X, not bootup.
[21:51] <AssociateX> The Xubuntu live cd runs faster and smoother than my Kubuntu install. I like it a lot.
[21:52] <linuxshine> xubuntu is nice very nice its what ubuntu should be
[21:52] <linuxshine> I Love it!
[21:52] <ochosi> always nice to hear :)#
[21:53] <AssociateX> : )
[21:53] <linuxshine> AssociateX maybe try re downloading and burning at a slower speed?
[21:54] <AssociateX> Ha, that's exactly what I started doing.
[21:55] <linuxshine> Yhea I had similar problems with a older version of ubuntu years ago
[21:55] <linuxshine> spent hours trying to figure it out
[21:57] <AssociateX> I spent all night last night, and then too much time today.
[21:57] <AssociateX> ...on it.
[21:58] <AssociateX> But it's cool, I'm on vacation and it's raining outside, so what better to do than to get Xubuntu installed.
[21:59] <linuxshine> Lol yhea if you have the time xfice 4.10 runs really nice on xubuntu been running for about a week now
[21:59] <linuxshine> *xfce
[22:00] <linuxshine> the only thing is a separator on the top bar is missing when you update to it that takes 10 seconds to fix
[22:01] <AssociateX> What do you mean? separator on or for what?
[22:01] <linuxshine> on the the panel
[22:01] <linuxshine> if you decide to checkout 4.10 if not it will be released in 12.10 probably better to wait
[22:02] <linuxshine> well good luck AssociateX
[22:02] <linuxshine> gtg
[22:03] <AssociateX> thank you
[22:03] <AssociateX> later
[22:09] <AssociateX> what command would help me find why install.py is crashing??
[22:43] <AssociateX> Well, it's done burning. Time for a reboot.
[22:46] <martinphone> can you confirm if CABExtract comes by default with xubuntu?
[22:46] <martinphone> and, where is the icon to launch it?
[22:47] <martinphone> or, is it command line only?
[23:06] <AssociateX> Well, that didn't work.
[23:06] <AssociateX> I got an iso from a mirror instead of a torrent, I'm getting the same errors.
[23:07] <AssociateX> colord crashes.
[23:10] <AssociateX> ubiquity -d --pdb --no-migration-assistant --only <--- any better suggestion?
[23:13] <AssociateX> I wish there was a -v --verbose option.
[23:44] <dmacm> hi
