[00:32] <mrojas6996> hello!, anybody here?
[00:34] <Vermicelli> I'm having trouble getting my Humble Bundle to install with Ubuntu Software Center. I get a "Not Found," for each title, which oddly enough while not found may or may not have ratings.
[00:35] <Vermicelli> http://i.imgur.com/GkUyX.png
[02:08] <ramprasadgk> Hello All Good Morning
[02:08] <ramprasadgk> INDIA
[02:14] <GridCube> :) hello
[02:21] <holstein> Vermicelli: i dont see shatter in the repos
[02:36] <ramprasadgk> hey guys i am unbale to login to my admin account
[02:36] <ramprasadgk> i can log in to gues but
[02:37] <ramprasadgk> guest*
[02:37] <holstein> ramprasadgk: you dont have a root account by default... you mean, your normal user? you cant login to it?
[02:39] <ramprasadgk> i have
[02:39] <ramprasadgk> but not able to login
[02:39] <holstein> ramprasadgk: well, assuming you need to reset your password.. http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/resetpassword
[02:39] <holstein> ramprasadgk: i would just double check the password, and try in TTY
[02:55] <ramprasadgk> passowrd is right
[02:55] <ramprasadgk> i even reset that
[02:55] <holstein> ramprasadgk: reset what? the password? how?
[02:56] <holstein> ramprasadgk: did you try logging in in TTY?
[02:56] <ramprasadgk> when i enter my password a screen flashes and bang.. i am back to login screen
[02:56] <ramprasadgk> i reset using recovery mode
[02:56] <holstein> ramprasadgk: that could be a crash, more that a password failing
[02:56] <ramprasadgk> but thats not the problem
[02:56] <ramprasadgk> i think so
[02:56] <ramprasadgk> it was a brand new inst
[02:57] <ramprasadgk> 3 days ago
[02:57] <holstein> ramprasadgk: sure.. 3 days is enough time for you to break it though
[02:57] <ramprasadgk> ha ha
[02:57] <ramprasadgk> :)
[02:57] <holstein> ramprasadgk: you can start moving things out of the /home directory
[02:57] <holstein> i think you'll find you can login from TTY
[02:57] <ramprasadgk> i dont have anything great stored in there
[02:57] <holstein> you can get to a recovery console
[02:57] <ramprasadgk> i can login as guest though!
[02:58] <holstein> you can get to the /home directory from a live CD
[02:58] <ramprasadgk> no
[02:58] <ramprasadgk> i have it installed
[02:58] <holstein> ramprasadgk: i dont think you can do what i am suggesting from the guest account, but feel free and try
[02:58] <holstein> ramprasadgk: you can get to the /home directory of the user that is failing to login by using a live CD
[02:58] <holstein> OR, TTY
[02:59] <holstein> or the recovery root console
[02:59] <ramprasadgk> i can login
[02:59] <ramprasadgk> using recovery mode
[02:59] <holstein> ramprasadgk: then whats the issue?
[03:00] <ramprasadgk> i dont think best way is use recovery mode everytime
[03:00] <holstein> ramprasadgk: ok.. then in there you can remove or move .config and whatever other changes in there you think might be breaking the loading
[03:00] <ramprasadgk> to use xubuntu
[03:00] <ramprasadgk> k let me try it out
[03:00] <holstein> ramprasadgk: while in recovery mode, you can recover the system.. you can remove some of the configuration files in your /home directory
[03:01] <ramprasadgk> ok
[03:01] <holstein>  .config would be the first one i would try
[03:10] <ramprasadgk> i have ibus
[03:10] <ramprasadgk> under .config
[03:10] <ramprasadgk> should i remove  that
[03:12] <holstein> ramprasadgk: what i am suggesting is to remove or rename .config
[03:12] <holstein> i would just backup what is there, and blow it out.. reboot and try and login
[03:26] <ramprasadgk> it dint work
[03:26] <ramprasadgk> anyaway i gotta reintall XUBUNTU
[05:02] <XT_hydra> hi i have a problem with my xfce configs
[05:04] <XT_hydra> i recently had problem like panel not apearing and mouse not apearing and no keyboard input and so on
[05:04] <XT_hydra> so i deleted some stuff in ".conf" in my "home" folder
[05:04] <XT_hydra> but i dont see the little "x" button for quitting a window anymore
[05:05] <XT_hydra> likely the problem is wich configuration handle the GUI for that button?
[05:10] <XT_hydra> ooh i googled it problem solved.. lol
[05:23] <Mathias> :P
[06:05] <nexion> hola
[06:05] <nexion> hi
[06:55] <dreamr4c3r> Hi does anybody know how to type ascii characters?
[06:56] <dreamr4c3r> I tried with alt+numbers but it didn't work
[06:56] <ball> dreamr4c3r: You should have a key for each of the printable ASCII characters.  Are you looking for something non-ASCII?
[06:56] <ball> (what number were you typing?)
[06:57] <dreamr4c3r> erm, sorry maybe not ascii haha i want to type special characters like the swedish a with the two dots and stuff
[06:57] <dreamr4c3r> these: äåö
[06:57] <ball> That's definitely not ASCII, but let me see what I can find.
[06:57] <dreamr4c3r> thanks :)
[06:57] <ball> Mouse -> Accessories -> Character Map
[06:58] <ball> ...hopefully that will help.
[06:58] <dreamr4c3r> oh i see, so i have to copy them from here?
[06:58] <dreamr4c3r> i suppose there's no way to type them quickly?
[06:58] <ball> There may be.  I notice it says u+four digits
[06:58]  * ball experiments
[07:00] <Sysi> https://help.ubuntu.com/11.04/ubuntu-help/tips-specialchars.html#ctrlshiftu
[07:01] <ball> smoöth
[07:01] <dreamr4c3r> hehe i was thiking of compose keys, though i didn't see an options button in the keyboard layout
[07:01] <ball> Thanks Sysi
[07:01] <dreamr4c3r> ami just blind?
[07:02] <ball> I've just noticed that my keyboard doesn't seem to have an AltGr key
[07:02] <Sysi> there are different keyboard settings in xubuntu and ubuntu
[07:02] <ball> I wonder when those went away.
[07:02] <dreamr4c3r> :/
[07:03] <Sysi> there are other ways of settings compose kay, like xmodmap and xkb
[07:03] <ball> I just installed Xubuntu this morning.
[07:04] <ball> I like it.
[07:04] <dreamr4c3r> :)
[07:04] <dreamr4c3r> it's fast huh hahah
[07:06] <dreamr4c3r> thanks sysi
[07:06] <ramprasadgk> hey guys where can i download all plugins for parole
[07:06] <ramprasadgk> keep it simple pals
[07:07] <ramprasadgk> dont send me a big doc
[07:07] <ramprasadgk> parole video/audio player
[07:08] <Sysi> do you lack some functionality you'd like to have?
[07:09] <ramprasadgk> yes
[07:09] <ramprasadgk> i cant play any vido on it
[07:09] <ramprasadgk> ex avi,mpeg etc
[07:09] <ramprasadgk> thats just basic rite
[07:09] <Sysi> !restricted-extras
[07:09] <ramprasadgk> it says sometimes, decoder not installed
[07:09] <Sysi> !codecs
[07:09] <ramprasadgk> sometimes plugin needed
[07:10] <Sysi> you need plugin for subsystem that player uses rather than player itself actually
[07:10] <Sysi> search for gstreamer plugins in software center
[07:11] <Sysi> you need -bad and -ugly
[08:06] <mlpokn> Hi
[08:07] <mlpokn> Guys
[08:07] <torax> hey
[08:07] <mlpokn> My USB mouse shows up twice in the Mouse Settings options. What can I do?
[09:06] <erkan^> hello, where can i change a theme? i have 12.04 ?
[09:07] <akis>  i installed an add-on on my thunderbird but due to a conflict with another add-on i remove it. i am running xubutnu 12.04 and as far as i can see in /home/user/thunderbird there is no trace of this add-on after i remove it. is there any possibility of any left-over files somewhere else and how can i be sure that removing this add-on everything related to it is removed?
[09:37] <mgs555> Hey all. A bit of a newbie here. Recently installed xubuntu over the vanilla installation. 1. How do I change the appearance of checkboxes, sliders, tabs and such? I can't seem to find settings for this in either Appearance or Window Manager settings. 2. How do I make the volume control work? Best I can tell there's some conflict between pulseaudio and the one that xfce comes with. Is the xfce mixer ever gonna work "as expected" on t
[09:38] <TheSheep> mgs555: yes
[09:39] <knome> mgs555, 1) go to applications -> settings -> settings manager -> appearance
[09:40] <knome> mgs555, it's in the style tab
[09:41] <mgs555> knome - that just seems to change the color scheme and window borders, but the sliders and stuff stays the same. maybe something's bugged out? They all seem kind of "primitive" - the checkboxes are just popped up buttons and sliders are these crude bars.
[09:42] <mgs555> I switched between ubuntu/xubuntu/xfe a few times to try them out and it seems that this changed after I logged back into xubuntu the last time
[09:43] <mgs555> oh, never mind :)
[09:43] <mgs555> it finally worked
[09:43] <mgs555> I just didn't try the right themes
[09:44] <mgs555> sorry
[09:44] <mgs555> is the sound mixer issue solvable?
[09:51] <ramprasadgk> my wifi is not detecting any n/w even though quiet a few around, ::: all drivers installed .. rfkill list wlan says they are not hard/soft blocked
[09:52] <ramprasadgk> how to connect to my wifi
[09:57] <ramprasadgk> anyone there
[09:57] <ramprasadgk> .............?
[09:59] <Simooon> ramprasadgk, perhaps your hardware switch is turned off?
[09:59] <ramprasadgk> no
[09:59] <ramprasadgk> it is on
[09:59] <Simooon> and it have worked before?
[09:59] <Simooon> *has
[09:59] <ramprasadgk> this is my first xubuntu install
[09:59] <Simooon> ok
[09:59] <ramprasadgk> with windows it was fine
[10:00] <Simooon> you can not detect any networks at all?
[10:00] <ramprasadgk> well
[10:00] <ramprasadgk> not wireless
[10:00] <Simooon> ok
[10:00] <ramprasadgk> during installation it mentioned that dhcp server inst failed
[10:01] <ramprasadgk> is that a porb
[10:01] <Simooon> not sure, perhaps you should try installing that
[10:01] <Simooon> ?
[10:01] <ramprasadgk> well
[10:01] <ramprasadgk> apart frm that
[10:01] <ramprasadgk> anything basic am i missing
[10:02] <longwuyuan> ramprasad ... if you click the icon in task bar .. do you see wireless enabled
[10:02] <ramprasadgk> because i got all drivers installed
[10:02] <Simooon> hmm not sure, sorry but I have to go
[10:03] <ramprasadgk> no
[10:03] <longwuyuan> have you tried to enable it
[10:03] <ramprasadgk> how do i do that
[10:04] <longwuyuan> unless u can tell what is wrong ..   i am not sure what solution will work for you
[10:04] <longwuyuan> what is the output of  iwlist wlan0 scanning
[10:04] <longwuyuan> " iwlist wlan0 scanning"
[10:05] <ramprasadgk> iterface doesn't support scanning
[10:05] <longwuyuan> also what is the output of "iwconfig"
[10:06] <ramprasadgk> lo no wireless ext
[10:06] <ramprasadgk> eth 0 no wireless ext
[10:06] <longwuyuan> any other line ?
[10:06] <ramprasadgk> lo eth0.. no other
[10:06] <ramprasadgk> only 2
[10:07] <longwuyuan> then your wireless card is not even initialised
[10:07] <ramprasadgk> what do i have to do
[10:07] <longwuyuan> bring  the wlan card up
[10:07] <ramprasadgk> because i m trying from past few days
[10:07] <longwuyuan> what hardware
[10:07] <ramprasadgk> any command?
[10:07] <longwuyuan> what laptop
[10:07] <ramprasadgk> BCM 4311
[10:08] <longwuyuan> what wireless card make and model
[10:08] <ramprasadgk> broadcom
[10:08] <ramprasadgk> BCM4311
[10:08] <longwuyuan> in "dmesg" output ... do you see the driver init
[10:08] <ramprasadgk> 802.11b/g
[10:08] <longwuyuan> "dmesg | less" and search
[10:09] <longwuyuan> better use xubuntu live and make sure that wireless works from live
[10:10] <ramprasadgk> driver init?
[10:10] <ramprasadgk> iany command to initialize wlan
[10:11] <ramprasadgk> card
[10:11] <longwuyuan> see the output of "dmesg" by typing "dmesg | less" . then use arrow keys of laptop keybaord to go up and down (or /<<text>>) and search if broadcom and wlan0 got initialised or not
[10:11] <longwuyuan> if not then ..  i can't help in chat .. you have to read docs on how to install drivers for the hardware that you are using
[10:12] <longwuyuan> if u used XUBUNTU LIVE .. then you can know if your WIRELESS hardware works or not
[10:13] <longwuyuan> do u have GUI ?
[10:13] <ramprasadgk> i dint find wlan0
[10:13] <ramprasadgk> i have GUI
[10:14] <longwuyuan> then connect ethernet cable and do update first
[10:14] <ramprasadgk> ok
[10:15] <longwuyuan> maybe you will be able to communicate root-cause for somone to help you
[10:15] <ramprasadgk> but i dont  have lan
[10:15] <ramprasadgk> only wifi
[10:15] <ramprasadgk> community wifi
[10:15] <longwuyuan> ok .. can u boot your computer to XUBUNTU LIVE ?
[10:16] <ramprasadgk> i have alternate CD only
[10:16] <longwuyuan> did u install from USB or CD
[10:16] <ramprasadgk> i have live ubuntu though
[10:16] <ramprasadgk> but alternate CD of Xubuntu
[10:17] <longwuyuan> does that boot to live ?
[10:17] <longwuyuan> i don't know so asking
[10:17] <ramprasadgk> oh yes
[10:17] <longwuyuan> then boot to live
[10:17] <ramprasadgk> but i havent tried on this laptop
[10:17] <ramprasadgk> because thsi is pretty old
[10:17] <ramprasadgk> like just 256 mb
[10:17] <knome> alternate CD doesn't boot to live
[10:17] <ramprasadgk> thats why i got xubuntu
[10:18] <longwuyuan> if  your card is recognized .. in live CD then it will work with install
[10:18] <knome> ramprasadgk, lubuntu might be even better for you
[10:18] <longwuyuan> versions of hardware software etc need to match. what is your laptop model
[10:18] <ramprasadgk> prob i si got lesser h/w
[10:18] <ramprasadgk> presario CT500
[10:18] <ramprasadgk> compaq
[10:19] <longwuyuan> how old ?
[10:19] <ramprasadgk> 7 yrs
[10:19] <longwuyuan> and which xubuntu version are you trying ?
[10:19] <ramprasadgk> 4.1
[10:19] <ramprasadgk> latest
[10:19] <knome> there is no 4.1 version
[10:20] <knome> do you mean 12.04.1 ?
[10:20] <ramprasadgk> yes
[10:20] <ramprasadgk> sorry
[10:20] <ramprasadgk> its 12.04.1
[10:21] <ramprasadgk> this is gettting tough
[10:21] <ramprasadgk> let me try fedora
[10:22] <ramprasadgk> i love ubuntu for its simplicity until simple things won't work :)
[10:22] <knome> good luck with installing; whatever you end up installing
[10:22] <knome> but i doubt fedora will support bcm any more or less
[10:23] <ramprasadgk> not sure
[10:23] <knome> ramprasadgk, did you already read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx ?
[10:23] <ramprasadgk> oh yeah
[10:23] <knome> well, the drivers are the same for all linuxes
[10:23] <knome> ramprasadgk, have you updated your bios? that worked wonders for my wife's laptop
[10:23] <ramprasadgk> i have got my drivers installed
[10:23] <ramprasadgk> how do i do that
[10:23] <ramprasadgk> what do i update
[10:24] <knome> check your motherboard manual
[10:24] <knome> you should check first if there even is bios update available; but i'm quite sure there is if you have a 7-year old pc and haven't updated it :)
[10:25] <ramprasadgk> hmm
[10:25] <ramprasadgk> pint is windows gets this right everytime
[10:25] <ramprasadgk> point*
[10:25] <ramprasadgk> why not with *inx
[10:25] <knome> yeah, windows has better support for bcm*
[10:26] <knome> long story short: because the bcm* drivers are closed source and linux maintainers would need to reverse-engineer them
[10:27] <ramprasadgk> well
[10:27] <ramprasadgk> i guess this is the time to update my system
[10:27] <ramprasadgk> :)
[10:28] <ramprasadgk> atleast will get a better RAM
[10:28] <knome> well, that too
[10:28] <knome> just check the components are known to be supported on linux, if you're going to use linux
[10:28] <ramprasadgk> true
[10:28] <knome> i know that's kind of stupid and you shouldn't need to do that, but that's how things are currently
[10:29] <ramprasadgk> i know
[10:29] <knome> otoh, if you choose the correct components, everything will work OOTB
[10:29] <knome> and that's simply awesome :)
[10:29] <ramprasadgk> this market is you need better h/w for better s/w
[10:29] <ramprasadgk> flip side of that is you won't learn most of things
[10:30] <knome> that's true, but you can't always win
[10:30] <knome> i suppose it depends much on what you use the stuff for
[10:30] <ramprasadgk> correct
[10:31] <ramprasadgk> basically i wanted to get this laptop for my wife
[10:31] <knome> if it's for leisure, it might be ok to have some unsupported/not fully supported stiff, but if it's for work, you most probably want maximum stability
[10:31] <ramprasadgk> just to browse the net and watch movies
[10:31] <ramprasadgk> yeah
[10:31] <ramprasadgk> rite
[10:31] <knome> 256MB sounds a bit low for that; i'm not sure how that'd play movies anyway
[10:31] <ramprasadgk> hmm
[10:31] <ramprasadgk> it does
[10:32] <ramprasadgk> not very well but
[10:32] <knome> i've had better PC's that don't play DVD's or video files well, and when it comes to youtube, if you want to use firefox, it's known to take half a gig...
[10:32] <ramprasadgk> however if i get my wifi working i can get many things straight
[10:32] <knome> what's the step where you are stuck at
[10:32] <knome> or have you followed the tutorial but it still simply doesn't work?
[10:32] <ramprasadgk> yes
[10:33] <ramprasadgk> atleas in my case
[10:33] <ramprasadgk> i tried all
[10:33] <ramprasadgk> i got all wwifi drivers installed
[10:33] <ramprasadgk> it is showing up now
[10:33] <ramprasadgk> but not scanning any wifi
[10:33] <knome> hmm
[10:33] <ramprasadgk> n/ws
[10:34] <knome> do you have several drivers loaded? (check lsmod)
[10:35] <ramprasadgk> yes
[10:35] <ramprasadgk> lots of
[10:35] <knome> i mean, several for wifi
[10:35] <knome> afaik you shold only have one
[10:35] <ramprasadgk> i dont have that
[10:36] <knome> ok
[10:36] <knome> weird
[10:36] <knome> a bios update could very well work
[10:37] <knome> updating it is not a bad idea anyway
[10:37] <ramprasadgk> for that i need a CD
[10:37] <ramprasadgk> rite
[10:37] <ramprasadgk> motherboard cd
[10:37] <knome> mmh, no
[10:37] <knome> you can get to bios on boot by pressing some keys, usually esc, del, f2, or so..
[10:37] <ramprasadgk> i know to get there
[10:38] <knome> check the manual from the internet for your motherboard/bios
[10:38] <knome> on how to update
[10:38] <knome> iirc i updated the bios with a usb stick :)
[10:38] <ramprasadgk> hmm
[10:38] <knome> ymmv
[10:39] <ramprasadgk> but tell me onething just to quickly no everything is fine with wifi ,any aprticular command or plca to chk
[10:39] <ramprasadgk> know*
[10:39] <knome> well, read the tutorials
[10:39] <ramprasadgk> quickly no--> quickly know
[10:39] <knome> http://www.linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43
[10:39] <knome> that too
[10:39] <knome> i don't have any specific ideas to test
[10:39] <knome> just what's listed on those
[10:40] <ramprasadgk> ok np
[10:43] <ramprasadgk> one more thing
[10:43] <ramprasadgk> have you got vlan runing on xubuntu
[10:43] <knome> sure
[10:43] <knome> yes
[10:44] <ramprasadgk> and also vlc player?
[10:44] <knome> not on this laptop, but i have it on desktop
[10:52] <ramprasadgk> ok
[10:56] <knome> how so?
[11:01] <mgs555> hey all, I'll give it another try: I am having trouble with sound mixer after switching from ubuntu to xubuntu. Been googling all day, honest. Pulseaudio is not supported in xf gui, is this the right conclusion? I must switch completely to alsa? How is this to be done? I seem to have both of them now and neither the taskbar volume control nor keyboard media keys are working.
[11:09] <knome> mgs555, have you tried installig pavucontrol?
[11:09] <mgs555> yes, but I don't get the option of adding it to the panel
[11:10] <mgs555> I can add the xf mixer to the panel, but it doesn't seem to work properly
[11:10] <mgs555> like now, I just did apt-get purge on pulseaudio
[11:11] <mgs555> but the mixer still says its using the card through pusleaudio rather than alsa
[11:11] <knome> mgs555, do you have the indicator area enabled? pulseaudio should show up there
[11:12] <mgs555> what do you mean by "indicator area"?
[11:12] <knome> mgs555, "indicator plugin" from the applet list
[11:13] <mgs555> yes
[11:14] <knome> so, doesn't that show you a volume indicator?
[11:14] <mgs555> I have my other icons there - skype, bt, dropbox, etc
[11:14] <mgs555> the volume indicator is there
[11:14] <mgs555> when I click on it, though, instead of a volume control it just takes me straight to the mixer
[11:14] <knome> hmm, i wonder if that's the right item
[11:14] <knome> that shouldn't take you to the mixed
[11:15] <knome> what version of xubuntu did you have again?
[11:15] <mgs555> where it says Soundcard: Playback: Built-in Audio Analog Surround 5.1 (PulseAudio Mixer)
[11:15] <mgs555> why is it puslse audio if I purged it
[11:16] <mgs555> hm, how do I check? :)
[11:16] <knome> 'lsb_release -a' in a terminal
[11:17] <mgs555> Ubuntu 12.04.0 LTS
[11:18] <mgs555> .1
[11:19] <knome> is it an upgraded system, or a fresh install?
[11:20] <mgs555> I installed xubuntu through apt-get over a fresh ubuntu install
[11:20] <knome> ok
[11:20] <mgs555> that's the problem?
[11:20] <knome> probably not, just checking :)
[11:21] <knome> can you confirm that you don't have the mixer applet in the panel - only the indicator plugin
[11:21] <knome> right-click panel -> panel -> panel preferences -> tab items
[11:21] <mgs555> I have the mixer applet
[11:22] <knome> ok, remove that for now
[11:22] <knome> and see of you have a volume icon visible
[11:22] <mgs555> I believe I installed it only because the indicator applet didn't have a volume control
[11:22] <mgs555> ok
[11:23] <mgs555> ok, removed. indicator only has messenger, bt, wifi, skype, dropbox, spotify
[11:24] <mgs555> and I can't seem to get any options on it now - before I used to be able to hide certain icons. hm...
[11:24] <knome> try installing indicator-sound-gtk2 and see if it appears
[11:24] <knome> (you should have that installed, but who knows)
[11:27] <mgs555> ok. so looks like dependencies are gonna take pusle audio back in
[11:27] <recon_lap> what joy :)
[11:27] <knome> mgs555, yes; have you had output problems with that?
[11:27] <knome> recon_lap, pulseaudio is actually getting better and better; it works relatively well for most today
[11:28] <mgs555> ok, done - so what should happen now? :)
[11:28] <knome> mgs555, the volume/sound indicator should appear
[11:28] <knome> mgs555, you might need to restart the panel; the easiest way is to log out and in
[11:30] <mgs555> ha! Interesting side effect. I removed the indicator applet, and it reappeared again - even though it's not on the list
[11:30] <knome> hmm, weird
[11:30] <mgs555> and this one is the one that I customized, with BT and wifi hidden away
[11:30] <knome> hmmkay
[11:30] <knome> does the volume icon show up?
[11:32] <mgs555> but this one is called "Notification Area"
[11:32] <knome> right, that's not the one you actually want
[11:32] <knome> and yeah, it's not a side effect; i think it might be expected
[11:32] <knome> you can't have both notification are and indicator area/plugin, afaik
[11:59] <recon_lap> how do you check that packages are installed without doing anything ?
[12:00] <recon_lap> without changing anything*
[12:00] <tsimpson> apt-cache policy <package>
[12:00] <recon_lap> thx
[12:00] <tsimpson> tells you if it's installed, if so what version, and what available versions are
[12:59] <asenk> Why do i have to add source for virtualbox when i want to install it (nothings wrong with that, just want to know why)
[12:59] <GridCube> what source?
[12:59] <GridCube> !info vbox
[12:59] <GridCube> !info vbox
[13:00] <GridCube> !info virtualbox
[13:00] <GridCube> is in universe
[13:02] <asenk> so virtualbox isnt in the default sources list -> ok -> but why?
[13:03] <Sysi> !info xubuntu-desktop
[13:03] <koegs> asenk: because it is not maintained by the ubuntu maintainers but by oracle
[13:04] <Sysi> also universe
[13:05] <koegs> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[13:06] <GridCube> asenk, is in universe, you dont need extra sources
[13:21] <jerli> hi there
[13:24] <Mathias> hi
[13:44] <GridCube> sup
[13:48] <Fohlen> hi @all
[13:49] <GridCube> hello :)
[13:49] <Fohlen> i have a question, is it possible to set up my mouse, so that i have the same feeling as in windows (xp/7)
[13:49] <GridCube> describe "feeling"
[13:51] <Fohlen> hmm, it is much faster i think
[13:51] <Fohlen> i googled arround a bit, but didnt found mouch :/
[13:52] <Fohlen> generally, is there a "tool" where i can setup my mouse a bit more precise as with settings-manager?
[13:52] <GridCube> go to the settings manager and to the "mouse and touchpad" submenu, there adjust acceleration and sencibility
[13:52] <Fohlen> i tryed over 2 hours i think :/
[13:52] <Fohlen> it is really hard, as a gamer to change mouse feeling :P:D
[13:53] <GridCube> then you can install synaptics
[13:53] <Sysi> disable acceleration, try some different values for sensitivity
[13:53] <GridCube> !info synaptics
[13:53] <GridCube> mmmm
[13:53] <GridCube> wait
[13:53] <Fohlen> k
[13:53] <GridCube> ok
[13:53] <GridCube> !info gsynaptics
[13:54] <Fohlen> kthx, i will try that :)
[13:55] <Fohlen> uhm, i have to say, xubuntu 12.04 lts is nice work, you fixed much guys ;)
[13:55] <GridCube> :) and 12.10 will be better with 4.10
[13:57] <Fohlen> uhm, in gponting device manager i can only setup middle mouse-button?
[13:57] <GridCube> oh
[13:57] <GridCube> :(
[13:59] <Fohlen> hmm, my problem is, sensivity is nice
[13:59] <Fohlen> but mouse isnt precise
[13:59] <Fohlen> it "glitches" away, when i shot
[13:59] <Fohlen> that drives me angry :/
[13:59] <GridCube> mmmm
[14:00] <GridCube> adjusting the sencibility bar doesnt fix that?
[14:00] <Fohlen> nope, but maybe it is that table
[14:00] <GridCube> Fohlen, we are so close to 12.10 that im going to propose you to try installing xfce 4.10
[14:00] <Fohlen> but under windoof, it worked :/
[14:01] <Fohlen> hmm, no, i will upgrade then ;)
[14:01] <GridCube> :P but it might fix this problem
[14:01] <GridCube> or you can try using a withe sheet of paper under your mouse
[14:01] <GridCube> :P
[14:01] <erkan^> xubuntu is nearly same as gnome (-:
[14:02] <GridCube> D:
[14:03] <erkan^> (-: is nice than :-) or no, GridCube ?
[14:04] <GridCube> D: if you are implying that its almost the same as gnome 3 then no
[14:04] <GridCube> :P
[14:04] <GridCube> !ot | but in any case
[14:04] <GridCube> :D
[14:05] <erkan^> I am no good in the development
[14:05] <GridCube> :P but you can go to offtopic to random chatter if you dont have any real problem
[14:05] <GridCube> :)
[14:06] <Marzata> but the offtopic channel is no active
[14:06] <erkan^> ow
[14:06] <erkan^> have xubuntu a offtopic too?
[14:06] <Marzata> there are better random chat channels for ubuntu users
[14:07] <GridCube> erkan^, did you read what ubottu said?
[14:07] <GridCube> Marzata, thats not true
[14:07] <erkan^> oeps i didn't see good, GridCube
[14:08] <recon_lap> erkan^: well go into settings and increase you font size ^-^
[14:09] <erkan^> recon_lap, i have a syndrome usher
[14:09] <erkan^> type 1
[14:09] <erkan^> :-S
[14:10] <recon_lap> erkan^: sorry to hear that.
[14:10] <erkan^> no problem, you didn't know about me
[14:10] <erkan^> (-:
[14:15] <|Anthony|> how do i make it such that 2 users can access audio devices at the same time? it would be 2 different audio devices
[14:16] <GridCube> set that up on pavucontrol
[14:17] <Fohlen> hmm, do anyone know what is the default of "Device Accel Constant Deceleration" ?
[14:18] <GridCube> Fohlen, http://xorg.freedesktop.org/wiki/Development/Documentation/PointerAcceleration
[14:18] <|Anthony|> GridCube, it's not that simple. really. i've tried. only one user has access to all the sound cards at one time, the other gets Dummy output
[14:19] <GridCube> |Anthony|, make different groups for each user, like "audio1" and "audio2" and make those devices part of only those groups also
[14:19] <|Anthony|> through udev?
[14:20] <GridCube> you got me there i dont really know
[14:20] <|Anthony|> lol
[14:20] <|Anthony|> well how would you implement that suggestion there3
[14:21] <GridCube> i would go and create a new group for each user, then i would add those devices to those groups separadetly, and i would search how to do that on the googles and probably end using udev for all i know :P
[14:22] <livingdaylight> greetings
[14:22] <GridCube> !hi | livingdaylight
[14:23] <livingdaylight> thanks GridCube
[14:23] <GridCube> :)
[14:26] <livingdaylight> I brought backdrops from /usr/share/xfce/backdrops or wherever from, to my home directory, but, now can't save new wallpaper to that folder. I tried sudo chmod +X ~/Pictures/backdrops but that doesn't seem to give me write permission still
[14:26] <|Anthony|> that's kinda funny
[14:27] <|Anthony|> sorry
[14:27] <|Anthony|> solidarity in failure i suppose
[14:27] <Fohlen> lol
[14:27] <Fohlen> GridCube, i can hear my mouseclicks/keyboard in mumble
[14:27] <Fohlen> could that be a fault of xubuntu?
[14:28] <livingdaylight> wtf?
[14:29] <Fohlen> i dont know why, but they hear my mouse louder than my voice o.o
[14:29] <|Anthony|> livingdaylight, it might be a better approach for the future to copy the individual files to a new folder and change perms of individual files
[14:30] <livingdaylight> |Anthony|: hrmm... I didn't know. how do I change permissions now?
[14:30] <livingdaylight> http://clip2net.com/s/2jP2s
[14:36] <livingdaylight> haro?
[14:37] <GridCube> yes?
[14:37] <livingdaylight> yes, please?
[14:37] <GridCube> why +x?
[14:37] <GridCube> you want to execute images?
[14:37] <GridCube> do man chmod
[14:37] <livingdaylight> want to change permission so I can import as described above
[14:39] <GridCube> livingdaylight, what is what you want to do
[14:39] <livingdaylight> is it really not clear? :s
[14:39] <GridCube> you want to be able to see the backdrops you add on your ~/ folder ont he choosing thingy for backdrops on the desktop?
[14:40] <livingdaylight> backdrops was originally a file in root with root permissions
[14:40] <GridCube> i know, buy you tried to give it +X
[14:40] <GridCube> that would make them eXecutable files
[14:40] <|Anthony|> lol
[14:41] <livingdaylight> As a user I brought in the backdrops folder to my home folder so as to have a readily-available source of wallpapers and folder for adding more wallpapers available.
[14:41] <GridCube> livingdaylight, i understand
[14:41] <livingdaylight> well, don't mock me, give me the solution, please?
[14:41] <GridCube> but there is a folder for that already
[14:42] <livingdaylight> |Anthony|: twat
[14:42] <GridCube> as i was saying
[14:42] <|Anthony|> did you really just call me a twat?
[14:42] <GridCube> you have to create a folder named backdrops on ~/.local/share/xfce4/backdrops
[14:42] <GridCube> and then put all your images there
[14:43] <GridCube> and they will be listed on the chooser thingy on the desktop
[14:43] <GridCube> that folder is own by you and you can do what ever you want to it
[14:43] <livingdaylight> the folder is already there. Its where I copied it from to my home/folder. What's wrong with that?
[14:43] <GridCube> you moved permissions
[14:43] <GridCube> and it was not really needed
[14:44] <livingdaylight> GridCube: ok, sorry, no. I moved backdrops from a root folder.
[14:44] <|Anthony|> you could have also created a ln -s
[14:44] <livingdaylight> question is why do I need to create a folder? I@m asking how to I copy a folder from root and move it to my home directory?
[14:45] <GridCube> because you dont really "need" to
[14:45] <livingdaylight> I'm sure its dead simple
[14:45] <livingdaylight> whether I need to or not is not the question
[14:45] <GridCube> that folder is own by root and defines the wallpapers for all users, the ones on your ~/ are own by you and only you can see them
[14:45] <livingdaylight> fact is I have moved it and now I can't save images to that folder - why? and more importantly, - how - do I change it so that I can
[14:46] <livingdaylight> oh, boy...
[14:46] <GridCube> livingdaylight, you need to change permisions for that directory
[14:46] <GridCube> not for the files inside them
[14:46] <livingdaylight> GridCube: yes, how, please? :)
[14:46] <GridCube> launch gksu thunar
[14:46] <recon_lap> livingdaylight: http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/filepermissions.html
[14:46] <GridCube> go to ~/.local/share/xfce4/
[14:46] <GridCube> right clic on the folder backdrops and go to the permision tab
[14:47] <GridCube> there fix it to "anyone can write"
[14:47] <livingdaylight> I hoped to do it from command line, with chmod. Is that not a way?
[14:47] <GridCube> yes, theres a way
[14:49] <GridCube> sudo chmor +r ~/.local/share/xfce4/bacdrops
[14:49] <GridCube> sudo chmod +r ~/.local/share/xfce4/bacdrops
[14:49] <GridCube> oh man...
[14:49] <GridCube> its +w
[14:49] <GridCube> +w means its Writable
[14:50] <GridCube> and its backdrops... oh gods, there you have why i know the gui ways of doing this things
[14:51] <livingdaylight> I did the gksu method just to see and still says that the owner is root http://clip2net.com/s/2jPkq
[14:55] <GridCube> the owner might be root but the permisions are to everyone can write
[14:55] <GridCube> on "others"
[14:56] <livingdaylight> what a pain. I want to change owner root to me the user to make it consistent with all other folders in my /home/
[14:56] <GridCube> then move it back to where it where and make a new folder yourself
[14:56] <livingdaylight> seems I need to create a folder and can't bring in a root folder and change the owner
[14:57] <holstein> i would just make a new one, pull in what you need and chown
[14:57] <livingdaylight> strange
[14:57] <GridCube> mmm chown
[14:57] <livingdaylight> So, are saying it is impossible in LInux to bring in a root folder and change the owner?
[14:58] <GridCube> no
[14:58] <GridCube> use chown
[14:58] <GridCube> sudo chown you /folder
[14:58] <holstein> livingdaylight: in linux, its all open, so everything is possible.. its even possible to break things and configure things improperly
[14:58] <livingdaylight> well, gksu thunar right-click and permissions hasn't changed the 'root' as owner
[14:58] <GridCube> it wasnt suppose to
[14:59] <GridCube> i told you how to change permissions not users
[14:59] <livingdaylight> GridCube: sudo chown /folder is what i DID - remember?
[14:59] <livingdaylight> aha
[14:59] <GridCube> no, you did chmod
[14:59] <livingdaylight> yes
[14:59] <GridCube> its not the same changing permision than users
[14:59] <livingdaylight> now we're getting somewhere :)
[15:00] <livingdaylight> so, how do I change user, please?
[15:00] <GridCube> man chown
[15:00] <livingdaylight> sudo chown - ?
[15:00] <GridCube> do man chown and read its man
[15:00] <holstein> i would step back for a bit, and try and see what the overall goal is
[15:01] <holstein> things are setup as they are for good reasons typically, and the permissions system is an easy way to keep things secure
[15:01] <GridCube> holstein, he wants to own the ~/.local/share/xfce4/backdrops folder
[15:01] <erkan^> Can I change theme for Xubuntu: Human/Ubuntu-theme?
[15:01] <GridCube> erkan^, if you want to
[15:01] <GridCube> i dont see why anyone would want to leave greybird tho
[15:01] <GridCube> :P
[15:02] <GridCube> erkan^, as long as it is a gtk2-3 compatible theme it should work
[15:02] <erkan^> I have download Human Theme in synpatic and installed too, but i cannot found him via Theme, GridCube
[15:03] <erkan^> oh yes i have him!
[15:04] <GridCube> erkan^, see faq 7 http://xubuntu.org/news/faq-1110-oneiric/
[15:06] <erkan^> ok
[15:06] <erkan^> Yes, you can use themes for GTK and install themes directly to ~/.themes or /usr/share/themes. You can obtain more themes from various sites, like xfce-look.org.
[15:07] <GridCube> :)
[15:12] <erkan^> GridCube, bottom window is full, how make I all visible: http://picpaste.com/pics/bottom-fnPxzQs1.1348153888.png ?
[15:13] <GridCube> oh you mean not all the items are shown in the panel?
[15:14] <GridCube> thats a known bug that i think its fixed on 4.10
[15:14] <GridCube> i dont known if theres a solution for 4.8
[15:14] <erkan^> yes
[15:16] <erkan^> i have solved now ! :D
[15:16] <GridCube> how so?
[15:17] <erkan^> I did item "Window" remove, and anew add, than i see that is normal all visible, GridCube
[15:23] <erkan^> which file manager do you use, GridCube ?
[15:23] <recon_lap> a question, is there a differance between using sudo or useing su to root, other than sudo is safer?
[15:24] <recon_lap> may saying sudo is less accident prone rather that safer
[15:24] <holstein> recon_lap: the end result is the same
[15:25] <recon_lap> thx, going to make a CA and just wanted to be sure
[15:32] <GridCube> erkan^, i use thunar
[15:34] <erkan^> me too
[15:35] <GridCube> :)
[16:57] <acer_> Hello
[16:58] <GridCube> !hi | acer_
[16:59] <acer_> Can someone help me with mt wireless on my acer?
[16:59]  * ball is settling back into Xubuntu
[17:00] <GridCube> !details | acer_
[17:02] <acer_> Well i dont have so much details, I have the latest v of xubuntu but my wireless dont show up in connections
[17:02] <recon_lap> acer_: have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/internet/C/troubleshooting-wireless.html
[17:03] <recon_lap> acer_: sorry , let me find a more upto date one
[17:05] <recon_lap> acer_: this one is better https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-help/net-wireless-troubleshooting.html
[17:05] <acer_> recon_lap, Thanks!
[17:05] <recon_lap> acer_: and if you'd let us know the make and model of laptop
[17:06] <acer_> Acer travelmate 290
[17:12] <recon_lap> wow, never saw instruction for fixing a wireless card that require taping up pint on the card itself =-O
[17:12] <recon_lap> pint/pins*
[17:13] <acer_> hmm looks like its disabled..
[17:13] <recon_lap> acer_: if you could tell us the model of the wifi card that would be good.
[17:14] <acer_> a sec
[17:16] <acer_> http://pastebin.com/WrB13S7H
[17:18] <GridCube> acer_, it says "DISABLED"
[17:19] <GridCube> you need to "ENABLED" it :P
[17:19] <GridCube> see if your keyboard doesnt have a fn key to unlock wifi
[17:19] <GridCube> or see if your bios is not locking it either
[17:19] <acer_> Yeah, but I dont know how :P Key is ON
[17:20] <recon_lap> i found this, but want to look about more to see if there is a better solution http://rfswitch.sourceforge.net/?page=laptop_matrix
[17:21] <recon_lap> taping over pins 11 and 13 sounds a but caveman
[17:22] <recon_lap> but/bit*
[17:22] <acer_> I'll be back later need to reboot this.
[17:23] <acer_> I'll just take the hammer so i just need to do it once ;P
[17:34] <danwhiffin> howdy y'all
[17:35] <danwhiffin> anyone here an expert on getting nvidia drivers to work?
[17:36] <recon_lap> !details | danwhiffin
[17:37] <recon_lap> make and model of computer are useful to
[17:37] <danwhiffin> Ok, cool. I've installed the latest xubuntu on a dell inspiron n5110, using an nvidia geforce 640M
[17:37] <danwhiffin> i think that's the right card model...
[17:38] <danwhiffin> when i look at additonal drivers, it shows that there is none installed.
[17:38] <danwhiffin> when i used the nvidia panel (x server settings) I get the following error
[17:39] <danwhiffin> You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.  Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.
[17:39] <danwhiffin> I was wondering if there was an idiot simple way (cos im an idiot) to install the driver?
[17:40] <danwhiffin> running xubuntu 11.10
[17:40] <recon_lap> well, try "applications menu -> settings -> additional drivers"
[17:41] <danwhiffin> "no proprietary drivers on this system"
[17:41] <GridCube> danmackay, also paste the output of lspci | grep -i "vga"
[17:42] <danwhiffin> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF108 [GeForce GT 540M] (rev a1)
[17:42] <GridCube> you have two vga cards
[17:42] <GridCube> you seem to be using the intel one, that uses generic drivers to the output you are seing
[17:43] <danwhiffin> oh ok
[17:44] <GridCube> shut down your computer, change the vga cords cables to the right ones and reboot
[17:44] <GridCube> you might want to disable the integrated card from the bios aswel to avoid this sort of problems in the future
[17:44] <danwhiffin> ...okay. im on a laptop, and I haven't changed any cable.s
[17:45] <GridCube> oookay
[17:45] <GridCube> i dont know then :)
[17:46] <danwhiffin> ah
[17:46] <GridCube> b?
[17:47] <danwhiffin> I'm trying to google how to select graphics card. mentions about xorg
[17:47] <GridCube> danwhiffin, i dont know if thats posible
[17:47] <danwhiffin> hmmm
[17:48] <danwhiffin> wty for all the help bt
[17:48] <GridCube> i think that your notebook screen is atached to the intel video card
[17:48] <danwhiffin> btw
[17:48] <GridCube> and the other output is the nvidia one
[17:48] <GridCube> the external output
[17:49] <danwhiffin> im slightly lost. on  my windows install it runs off the nvidia, and i havent changed anything after installing xubuntu...7
[17:49] <danwhiffin> hardware wise
[17:50] <recon_lap> danwhiffin: there is a thing called Optima which nvidia uses to switch between VC depending on load to save batteries, it's not well supported by ubuntu yet as far as i know
[17:51] <recon_lap> danwhiffin: you ever heard of your bios ?
[17:51] <danwhiffin> yes. i know it.
[17:52] <recon_lap> danwhiffin: might be worth have a look in there to see if there are any video card options
[17:52] <danwhiffin> ok, ill have a look.
[17:52] <recon_lap> danwhiffin: I'd not change anything hastily though

[18:01] <asenk> about the mouse acceleration which was discussed earlier: is it possible to just disable acceleration alltogether and map the pointer to move in 1:1 motion with only sensivity to control?
[18:04] <recon_lap> asenk: have you tried setting acceleration to 0/1 in setting manager?
[18:41] <asenk> recon_lap: best you can do is 0.1
[19:58] <Blue> accepted
[19:58] <knome> ?
[19:58] <Blue> im having trouble installing
[20:03] <holstein> Blue: a package? the operating system? this is the place to ask.. just ask :)
[20:05] <Blue> I downloaded the mirror
[20:05] <Blue> then burned it to a disk
[20:05] <Blue> and my computer cant read or run any of the files
[20:06] <holstein> Blue: you downloaded the iso? the live iso from a mirror? for the xubuntu 12.04 desktop version?
[20:06] <MrBushido> is there anything like netlimiter for linux? it's a taskmanager like app that breaks down bandwidth usage by process and allows you to limit each processes max bandwidth http://www.netlimiter.com/img/scrshots/nl2shot_limit.png
[20:07] <Blue> yes i downloaded the mirror foe 12.04
[20:07] <Blue> *for
[20:07] <holstein> Blue: you downloaded the iso?
[20:08] <holstein> you downloaded the iso from a mirror.. you have a file that is 'xubuntu.*.iso".. something like that.. ending in .iso? correct Blue ?
[20:08] <Blue> yes
[20:09] <Blue> it's the iso
[20:09] <MrBushido> what message do you get when you try to boot from your cd drive?
[20:09] <holstein> Blue: you will just boot the machine using that CD you made
[20:09] <holstein> Blue: the computer wont "read" anything from it.. its going to be a bootable image.... you'll just reboot the machine, and boot the CD instead of the hard drive
[20:09] <Blue> ok, so just re-start and on the boot up menu select the cd?
[20:09] <Blue> ok thanks!
[20:10] <holstein> Blue: correct... you might need to go into the bios for that
[20:10] <MrBushido> most bios's let you hit F8 to see a boot menu
[20:10] <holstein> each machine is different so i cant be much more specific without you taking and posting some images
[20:10] <MrBushido> you can just choose your cd drive from the list that pops up after hitting f8
[20:10] <Blue> ok thanks everyone!
[20:11] <Mathias> try the f keys :p
[20:11] <holstein> Blue: enjoy!
[20:11] <MrBushido> sooooo, anybody know a per process bandwidth monitor?
[20:12] <holstein> MrBushido: i might try the server mailing list
[20:14] <Sysi> http://linuxpoison.blogspot.fi/2010/09/monitor-bandwidth-consumption-per.html
[20:15] <holstein> Sysi: that should do the trick for MrBushido

[20:29] <HeadlessZombie> my 16GB flashdrive has reached its max writes. about to install to new flash drive.  What i have: 4GB flash drive and an 8GB flash drive. The 4GB is newer and has more writes available. what install / partition scheme should I use If i wanted to use both drives to get the most storage space?
[20:30] <genii-around> You already asked that question in #ubuntu
[20:31] <HeadlessZombie> and i got ignored.
[20:32] <MrBushido> HeadlessZombie: it depends, what do you use linux for?
[20:32] <MrBushido> are you going to be downloading a lot of stuff to your home drive, then deleting and it and downloading more stuff
[20:32] <HeadlessZombie> xampp server running opencart
[20:33] <MrBushido> then you probably want to use the 16mb for / and /home and use your 4gb drive for /var/ or whever xampp does it stuff
[20:34] <HeadlessZombie> k
[20:34] <MrBushido> unless you use your xampp server to serve static files
[20:34] <HeadlessZombie> thanx
[20:34] <HeadlessZombie> no
[20:35] <genii-around> HeadlessZombie: So the machine runs headless? eg: basic server install with xampp and you just access it from a web browser elsewhere?
[20:35] <MrBushido> also consider using ext2 or another non-journaling filesystem
[20:35] <MrBushido> since it will cut down on writes per file
[20:36] <HeadlessZombie> genii-around; yes.  MrBushido; yes it's ext2
[20:36] <genii-around> ramdisks for tmp space...
[20:39] <genii-around> HeadlessZombie: So your basic install after apt-get clean is probably somewhere in the neighbourhood of 2G, I'm thinking. I'd be tempted to mirror the 4G onto the first part of the 8G and run them as a raid1, then use the second 4G of the 8G for wherever the data gets put
[20:39] <genii-around> And no swap partitions, obviously
[20:40] <HeadlessZombie> good advice
[20:57] <xubuntu581> i
[21:10] <MrBushido> is there a specific place i can find log files? trying to figure out why cairo-dock freezes up every once in a while but cant see any logs in it's whereis directories
[21:13] <Unit193> One place is /var/log/
[21:16] <MrBushido> Unit193: ty, will check
[21:25] <iToast> Hey
[21:25] <iToast> what's the minimal requrements for xubuntu
[21:27] <HeadlessZombie> 256 RAM, 4GB HD
[21:27] <HeadlessZombie> can run in 128RAM but you dont wanna use the GUI
[21:28] <HeadlessZombie> minimum install with alternate CD is 2GB
[21:29] <HeadlessZombie> really you dont want to use less than 384 RAM and 6GB hard drive
[21:30] <iToast> I have 1.5gb of ram
[21:30] <iToast> and a 120gb hdd
[21:30] <iToast> for a XBMC build.
[22:44] <Guest806> i just downloaded and installed the newest linus system, its great, but i want to disable the guest account
[22:45] <Guest806> i already tried going through the folder and editing the lightdm. file and when i tried to save a box popped up that told me the system couldnt open the file to write it
[22:45] <GridCube> see the faq 7: http://xubuntu.org/news/faq-1204-precise/
[22:46] <GridCube> you need to open the file using: gksu
[22:46] <GridCube> gksu leafpad /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
[22:59] <erkan^> Can I use PPA https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ppa in Xubuntu?
