[03:40] <vn-> heya, I'm trying to setup a projector as my monitor on xubuntu precise, but im limited to 1360x768...how can I get 1080i res? ty
[03:45] <well_laid_lawn> vn-: what does xrandr in a terminal tell you the options for resolution of the projector are?
[06:22] <cheetah97> ping
[06:22] <cheetah97> anybody here?
[08:28] <xubuntu325> how to resett my passwd in xbuntu
[08:31] <xubuntu246> helo
[08:33] <xubuntu246> excuse me I have a problem with xubuntu, long ago, I set the proxy and now I would like to remove on xubuntu but not the file apt.conf else as I do?
[08:38] <roryy> xubuntu246: according to askubuntu.com here http://askubuntu.com/questions/86638/xubuntu-11-10-proxy-server-settings   you set a "system-wide" proxy via editing .bashrc.
[08:39] <roryy> xubuntu246: i don't understand what you mean by proxy, exactly, but that is one place to set a proxy
[08:45] <xubuntu246> so if I did not want to set any proxy server entry and portnumber which values ​​should I put?
[08:45] <xubuntu246> I intend to proxy the proxy to the network
[08:52] <well_laid_lawn> in a terminal   export http_proxy=""   should clear it afaik
[08:59] <xubuntu246> thanks
[12:18] <Formal> hi, I have a question about the network manager
[12:19] <Formal> when I start up I can only get my wireless connection working if I put up a lan cable
[12:20] <Formal> then the network manager starts working
[12:20] <Formal> my question is: why do can I have only an wireless connection through this method
[12:21] <Formal> second: why does the network manager start very slowly
[12:21] <Formal> it even crashes
[12:23] <Formal> anyone?
[14:19] <Chad___> I have a simple question. In Thunar, is it possible to open a shell script in a text editor by default (rather than executing it)?
[14:31] <ochosi> Chad___: yes, right-click the script, go to "open with other application" and select a text-editor (and tick "use as default")
[14:34] <Chad___> ochosi: I've done that. It makes it the default text editor, but when I double-click the file, it still executes instead.
[14:37] <Chad___> ochosi: I'm using XFCE 4.8 (the default that ships with Xubuntu). Perhaps I'll have to wait for 4.10's MIME Type Editor?
[14:37] <ochosi> Chad___: no, it should work in 4.8 as well
[14:37] <ochosi> Chad___: unfortunately i can't test it now and here, because i'm using 4.10
[14:38] <Chad___> ochosi: Hm....okay. Thanks for the help anyways :)
[14:39] <ochosi> Chad___: np
[14:51] <Mathsterk> Chad___: right click on the file, properties, open with *select*
[15:15] <Chad___> Mathsterk: The properties menu only displays "General", "Emblems", and "Permissions". I have a feeling this cannot be solved.
[15:16] <Mathsterk> it's under the "general" tab
[15:16] <Chad___> The "General" tab just shows information about the selected file, that's it.
[15:20] <Mathsterk> here is how it looks like for me: http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-07072012-051840pm.php
[16:45] <xubuntu831> hello, can somebody help me with connecting xubuntu 12.04 to internet? (no wifi, no lan after upgrade from 11.10)
[17:01] <delt> heh, this almost worked, i'm surprised :D :D
[17:01] <delt> running xubuntu from a chroot within slack
[17:01] <delt> by refining a bit, i bet i could do it
[17:03] <delt> the problem is, with the separate X server running "outside" the chroot, xubuntu apps can't connect to unix sockets with it....
[17:03] <delt> but when i run the Xserver within the chroot, it pukes something about the nvidia driver.... :/ perhaps if i copy the kernel modules over?
[17:05] <delt> ...anyway, running a xubuntu desktop on a separate X server within slack, would be the best!! :D :D
[17:07] <delt> that way i could run all the apps that don't run directly throught the mount point, without rebooting between the two distros
[17:47] <delt> DUH, different versions of the nvidia driver.....
[17:47] <delt> <--- ritardid :)
[18:21] <delt> What's the config file that prevents ctrl+alt+backspace in xubuntu?
[18:22] <Sysi> altgr prntscrn K is 2012
[18:23] <delt> altr, print...screen... ???
[18:25] <Sysi> Alt plus PrintScreen plus K
[18:25] <Sysi> to restart Xorg
[18:26] <delt> ah, yeah just noticed.... didnt even know that :D
[18:27] <Sysi> it's the new standard, been around a while already though
[18:30] <delt> yeah, less chance to accidentally hit it :3
[19:35] <cousteau> could someone tell me the result of   echo "$DESKTOP_SESSION"   please?
[19:35] <cousteau> (maybe I should move this to off-topic since it's not exactly support or at least not important one)
[19:35] <Mathsterk> xubuntu
[19:35] <cousteau> thanks
[19:36] <Mathsterk> just double checking or something?
[19:36] <cousteau> nope, don't have xubuntu on this machine
[19:43] <delt> heh, now i just need to figure out how the chroot and "real" environments can communicate via dbus ... if only there was some kind of "dbus-fs" .....
[19:43] <Sysi> I use virtualbox..
[19:44] <delt> other than symlinking the "real" dbus directory into the chroot env....
[19:44] <delt> yeah but emulation is waaay slower than running the software directly
[19:44] <delt> and it's kind of ridiculous to emulate your own cpu
[19:44] <Sysi> my cpu has virtualization support, no emulation
[19:45] <Sysi> biggest bottleneck should be I/O
[19:46] <delt> cpu level virtualization hmm... lets see what that is
[19:48] <Sysi> intel vt or amd-v
[19:49] <delt> .... is there a way to mount the same tmpfs at 2 or more mount points
[19:49] <delt> ?
[21:06] <Marzata> why ntp is not working on xubu 12.04?
[21:10] <knome> i don't know, but that isn't a very good support question. try with "what can i do to troubleshoot why ntp doesn't work in 12.04" - and no, i don't know
[21:21] <Marzata> but thanks!
[21:23] <mongy> check the logs?
[21:41] <delt> HEH THIS IS AWESOME!! i'm booted into my regular (slackware) system, and i'm running my whole xubuntu desktop on a separate X server :D :D :D
[21:42] <delt> using just chroot, no virtual-machine stuff
[21:42] <Mathsterk> delt: cool
[21:43] <delt> question: the other day i had to change my graphics card, since then openGL apps (like that neat OSX style dock) always have a solid white background instead of transparent
[21:43] <delt> same thing happens right now, from the chroot-ed xubuntu
[21:43] <delt> same dock running normally in slackware is fine....
[21:44] <delt> and 3d games work fine in both systems (except sound in quake3 when actually booting to xubu)
[21:45] <delt> now the os-x style dock (it's called "cairo") has a solid black background (in the xubu desktop) but otherwise it seems to be working fine
[21:47] <delt> except it's rather annoying because it's always in the front (normally transparent when unused) which right now causes an opaque rectangle always covering the lower 2 inches of the screen
[21:48] <delt> weird thing is, running on the slackware Xserver (even from the xubu root) works fine.... must be a config issue with the Xserver itself
[22:02] <mongy> delt, how did you do that other distro in another X ?
