dgrvedadohi!!!00:42
dgrvedadoi used the xubuntu live-cd, i need to loging how root, whats is the password?00:43
Unit193!root00:44
ubottuDo not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo00:44
dgrvedadoi need mount my external disk and delete, copy and move file... but xubuntu mount by default ro :(00:45
Unit193sudo, and gksudo is what you should use, try gksudo thunar00:46
dgrvedadoi try sudo su - and some message error showme00:47
dgrvedadogksudo thunar dont work :(00:48
dgrvedadoin ubuntu i do "sudo su -" is worked, but here not, why??00:49
Unit193Normally it's sudo -i00:49
dgrvedadoxubuntu@xubuntu:~$ sudo -i sudo: >>> /etc/sudoers: syntax error junto a la línea 26 <<< sudo: error de análisis en /etc/sudoers cerca de la línea 26 sudo: no se encontraron fuentes sudoers válidas, saliendo sudo: imposible inicializar el complemento de política xubuntu@xubuntu:~$00:50
dgrvedadothat message showme when i do sudo su -00:50
dgrvedadowhat is the problem in used the root passwd??00:51
dgrvedadohow can used root user in console??00:53
dgrvedadoi need that....00:53
dgrvedadoplease help!!!00:53
Unit193I can't quite parse some sentances, but as I said, did you try  sudo -i  ?00:53
dgrvedadosudo -i00:54
dgrvedadosudo: >>> /etc/sudoers: syntax error in the líne 26 <<<00:54
dgrvedadosudo: analized error in  /etc/sudoers on líne 2600:55
Unit193Well you could look at that file, but that sure isn't normal, and could explain why your're having issues with using sudo/gksudo.00:55
dgrvedadosudo: not found the valid sudoers source outing00:55
dgrvedadobut the live user no have permission for modify this file00:56
dgrvedadook the xubuntu is not option... is not possible think the root passwd is not access by the users... :(00:58
dgrvedadoi try other distro00:58
dgrvedadothank for nothing00:58
Unit193Generally there is... Or not.00:58

dystopiandrifthello. is anyone willing to help me figure out why my laptop's screen will not sleep?02:34
dystopiandriftI vaguely remember reading something about having to replace xfce power manager with gnome power manager.. I do not know how to do this well.. I could install gnome power manager and un-install xfce power manager.. but then what? how do I replace all system calls for xfce pwr mgr with the gnome one?02:37
dystopiandriftbah.. last time I popped in here I got no answers either. not even a "hello."02:42
* dystopiandrift eats computer.02:42
dystopiandriftI did much searching.. with no luck. back to the searching I suppose.. while I hope for a kind helping hand..02:45
Unit193The settings in xfce4-power-manager-settings not holding?02:48
dystopiandriftthey are. they just don't work. it seems like my screen wants to blank and turn off because 1min after my screen saver starts, it blanks for a second, but then the screen saver just stays on.02:50
dystopiandrifthm, found something saying implementing the power settings in xscreensaver makes it work.. wish me luck02:54
dystopiandrifton an unrelated note, all the h.o.p.e. talks are up already! woop.02:56
dystopiandrifthey, it worked. anytime you need someone to spam up your logs, just call my name. ;p02:59
xubuntu194hi..how do i install xubuntu via usb?03:01
dystopiandriftinstall unetbootin then download xubuntu iso, or you can use unetbootin to do that03:01
xubuntu194ok thanks03:02
Unit193Windows users can use LinuxLiveUSB creator, nice tool.03:03
dystopiandriftI'v not used that one. I know unetbootin is on windows too.03:03

xubuntu443Salve a tutti!19:15
xubuntu443Ho installato Xubuntu  sul un pc ed ora vorrei realizzare una Live Usb su una pendrive da 16 gb da portarmi in giro19:16
xubuntu443Ho letto diverse guide online, ma mi sono perso...19:17
xubuntu443qualcuno può aiutarmi?19:17
Pici!it19:19
ubottuVai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (per entrare, scrivi « /join #ubuntu-it » senza virgolette)19:19
xubuntu443ok, sorry!19:20
xubuntu443I installed Xubuntu on a PC and now I want to create a Live USB on pendrive 16 gb to take me around19:22
xubuntu443I read several guides online, but I'm lost ...19:22
xubuntu443someone can help me?19:22
bluesabreHello xubuntu44319:24
bluesabreThe easiest thing to do is use the Startup Disk Creator that is included with Xubuntu.19:24
bluesabreSystem > Startup Disk Creator19:24
bluesabreJust insert your pen drive, open the application, select the xubuntu iso file and tell it to install on the pen drive19:25
xubuntu443Hi, Bluesabre, Startup Disk Creator starts from the Xubuntu Iso File... so I lose the customizations already made ​​in my PC?19:30
bluesabreAh, so you wish to create a live cd based on your current configuration?19:31
bluesabreThen you will probably need to try remastersys: http://www.geekconnection.org/remastersys/19:33
xubuntu443bluesabre, I started already Startup Disk Creator.... 80% completed... I can escape without ruining anything?19:48
TheSheepxubuntu443: it already deleted your disk though19:49
TheSheepxubuntu443: or pendrive or whatever you are writing to19:49
xubuntu443Blusabre: then I try to continue this way19:51
xubuntu443blusabre:  Sorry, I'm still here.  I have finished creating the boot disk I inserted the live of a PC and started the pc The startup screen asking me if I want to try or want to install Xubuntu. So I think you have not created a Live USB. Am I wrong?20:34
TheSheepxubuntu443: the 'try' option starts the livecd20:34
xubuntu443theSheep: and to start the Live USb?20:38
moetunesmaybe the sheep could have used the term "Live Media" instead of "livecd" but in this case it means the same thing20:42
xubuntu443well, so everytime to use my Live Usb i have to select "TRY"?20:43
moetunesI wasn't here for the start of this but I'm guessing you wanted a persistant usb install, not just to put the live media on the usb?20:45
moetunes!install20:45
ubottuUbuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate20:45
xubuntu443my goal is to create a persistant live USB to use to work on any computer and store the data as well20:53
TheSheepxubuntu443: what you made should work likethat20:55
xubuntu443i'm sorry but i don't believe it... I have many problems, maybe I wrong something20:57
xubuntu443every time I boot a PC after inserting the Live20:58
TheSheepxubuntu443: the system disk creator even has explicitly an option for how much space to reserve for storing data on it20:58
TheSheepxubuntu443: well, try things out and see what works for you20:58
xubuntu443the first screen is "TRY or INSTALL"?21:00
xubuntu443If I close the window, then I go to the desktop21:01
xubuntu443During the creation I opted for 4.0 GB of storage space now I can not get on the removable21:02
The_CogI think the persistent storage is merged with the general system ramdisk (stores the changes). Try safing a file to your desktop and then rebooting. See if it's still there.21:38
