[00:10] what plugin do I need to watch youtube in chromium? [00:12] n2diy, "sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin" should do the job... [00:12] n2diy: flash... you can try chrome which comes with its own flash [00:19] ok thanks, now youtube is working, but videos in facebook won't play. [00:19] might need to reload the browser [00:20] if its not flash, flash wont help you play them [00:45] Would anyone be able to help me install xubuntu from a USB?

[00:52] can you hit shift and get to the menu with F6 at the bottom? [00:52] No [00:52] I don't think so [00:52] viper117x123: try hitting shift, then you'll know [00:53] ... I 'll try, but I've had to do some "fixes" to solve a "xubuntu 12.04 unknow keyword in configuration file" error [00:53] Will format the USB and remount the ISO to it [00:53] so, you got it to instal? [00:53] No [00:54] im not following then.. not sure what an unknown keyword error is, but i was thinking that would be after install [00:54] anyways, sometimes there are unsupported graphics cards that need nomodeset ...this is like safe graphics mode AFAIK [00:55] That sounds promising [00:55] this has working for me viper117x123 on several machine that just go to a black screen, which is what i thought you were having [00:56] I am going to try what you've suggested holding shift while I boot? [00:56] Then Press F6 [00:57] And select nomodeset? [00:57] viper117x123: i would just hit shift.. when you first see something thats not bios related [00:57] Okay [00:57] Thanks a lot for the help [00:57] I'll try it now!

[01:22] n2diy: it?.. you mean chromium? i dont know what you are looking at [01:22] n2diy: im suggesting trying the chrome browser, as maybe there is something needing a new version of flash [01:23] othewise, take a screenshot if you'd like, and we'll look at what you are seeing [01:23] if you havent logged out since installing the flash plugin, that wouldnt hurt to try [01:24] holstein, sorry, yes, it is chromium, new install of Xu 12.04 [01:24] adobe doesnt support flash in linux anymore... google supports flash in chrome for linux [01:28] holstein, ok, I reloaded the page, and was prompted to give permission for shockwave to play on that website. When I do, a box reports shockwave has crashed. [01:28] n2diy: AFAIK, you dont have shockwave [01:29] you only installed flash [01:29] i would just load up actual chrome and see [01:34] holstein, ok, I went back to the software center, and now there is a newer version of adobe flash.

It seems like the resolution is lower than it was before I installed xubuntu [03:53] I assumed that was because I was using nomodeset, before when I booted up the screen was completely blank [03:54] nomodeset only affects the console afaik - what does xubuntu say the available resolutions are?

[19:16] but truecrypt is not able to encrypt folders and files [19:16] i've played enough with truecrypt to remember that :P [19:16] as I know it is not able to create a true fulldisk encryption with preboot auth [19:16] I did the windows encryption a long time ago, and I have done keyfiles too, even have it installed here. [19:17] I have a windows system with truecrypt and preboot auth as well [19:17] but I don't see this on unix systems [19:17] I think is is not possible [19:18] The alternate installer offers LVM with enctyption in the partitioning screen. [19:18] I know, but as far a I know only with password [19:18] no option for keyfiles [19:27] I really like to have a bin keyfile, like a .jpg, cause you can hide it on an sd-card with hundreds of other pictures [19:27] that's why I' am not happy with a password ;) [19:28] hide the password with other passwords [19:30] that is not the same. A SD card with pictures is quit normal and will not raise attention [19:30] a list of random strings will raise attention [19:31] It is a bit paranoid I know. [19:31] but it must be possible to get this setup working [20:11] hi all [20:11] !hi [20:11] Hi!, Welcome to #xubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines. Enjoy your stay! [20:14] i have a question [20:18] feel free to ask @ws12 [20:24] is there a problem with TWR and N7? === pAt_ is now known as Guest26414 === Guest26414 is now known as pAt__ [21:40] does anybody know if i can use the alternate installer cd to install xubuntu 12.04 without going into X? [21:41] ps2aux: thats what it should do... should work great with lower ram [21:41] Every time i start with the install cd in, it goes into x and wants to install from there, and proceeds to die. [21:42] i remember i had an older ubuntu alternate install disk, and it had a command line installer which worked great, so i was hoping there may be something similar here [21:44] ps2aux: its the alternate installer [21:44] you'll see it here ps2aux http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/precise/release/ [21:44] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/precise/release/xubuntu-12.04-alternate-i386.iso for example [21:45] i could have sworn that's what i have, but i'll double check! it won't be the first time i've let something semi-obvious slip by me. thanks [21:46] ps2aux: no worries... let us know [21:46] will do [21:48] this is annoying me in xfce-panel: when I click the icon of a focused window to minimize it, I can't click again to bring it back immediately. I have to focus another window first, then I can click to restore. anyone not have this problem? [21:54] greasegum: not afaik [22:00] Mathsterk:: ok, hmmm. I wonder how I might go about changing this behavior. Any thoughts? [22:01] check menu > settings > settings manager > window manager [22:01] must be something there [22:12] I just wanted to thank you for your help earlier... If you would believe this, I had both installation CDs in my machine... so I wasn't crazy in thinking that I had the alternate installer, just crazy in not noticing that both my drives were loaded [22:18] I am using compiz as my wm [23:40] how easy is it to install gnome 3 xubuntu? i want to give it a try [23:59] Hello. I dual-booted Xubuntu for the first time onto my Dell Latitude D610 laptop via a DVD. Unfortunately, I am unable to connect to my verizon wireless network; due to the error: "Wireless Networks: device not ready (firmware missing)" . Nothing I found on the internet seems to be able to help. Any advice?
