[00:58] <TaxmanD> by the way I'm on 12.04 LTS right now and its working ok on my netbook, some bugs here and there, is 12.10 worth it to get?
[00:59] <TaxmanD> also there's this eeexubuntu thing i heard of, should i use it for my netbook instead?
[00:59] <TaxmanD> thanks and sorry for spam :)
[01:00] <pleia2> as far as I know eeexubuntu isn't maintained
[01:00] <pleia2> so you're better off just using regular xubuntu on netbooks (I do)
[01:01] <pleia2> the features of 12.10 are here, only you can decide if it's worth it for you :) http://xubuntu.org/news/12-10-release/
[01:01] <pleia2> xfce went from 4.8 to 4.10, which a lot of people were excited about
[01:06] <TaxmanD> alrighty, thanks pleia, what netbook do you have btw if I may ask
[01:06] <pleia2> Dell Mini9
[01:07] <TaxmanD> when you bought it did it come with windows?
[01:07] <pleia2> no, it came with Ubuntu 8.04
[01:07] <TaxmanD> ah ok, cool
[01:17] <xubuntuf3nyx> Question: is there a way to download the 3.6.3(latest stable) from a repository on Xubuntu? you know apt-get style.
[01:21] <pleia2> the 3.6.3 what?
[01:22] <xubuntuf3nyx> i guees im asking if there is an official repository for the latest stable LibreOffice. sorry
[01:22] <xubuntuf3nyx> i missed that key word :S
[01:23] <xubuntuf3nyx> LibreOffice for Xubuntu official repository with the latest stable release? Is there one?
[01:24] <pleia2> Xubuntu doesn't come with libreoffice at all, so you'd be looking for an Ubuntu one
[01:24] <pleia2> https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ppa seems to be the closest, but it looks like they just have 3.6.1
[01:25] <xubuntuf3nyx> oh... ok thanks. i can live with 3.6.1
[01:25] <xubuntuf3nyx> thank you very much.
[01:25] <pleia2> welcome

[03:01] <K1rk|Work> Hey quick question... In Gnome I used to be able to put my .desktop files in an autostart folder and they would launch when the login screen opened.  How do I do this with lightdm in xubuntu 12.04?
[03:09] <holstein> K1rk|Work: i would just add whatever i want to the session startup
[03:09] <holstein> for xfce
[03:09] <K1rk|Work> holstein: but will that work prior to login?
[03:10] <holstein> maybe http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10495974/ways-to-add-programs-to-startup-in-ubuntu-by-commandline
[03:11] <holstein> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3913304/how-to-start-an-application-as-soon-as-the-x-start-up-in-ubuntu
[03:22] <alexm> Hey, does anyone know how well Xubuntu works on a Macbook Pro (Intel)?
[03:32] <holstein> alexm: try it live :)

[03:35] <alexm> Yea I'll just try live CD thanks
[10:44] <Melsi> Hello, I would like to create a readme ascii file. I see that leafpad both opens readme and readme.txt, my question: is it a common practice to use the .txt extension (in windows is), thank you!
[10:46] <knome> Melsi, i think many just use "README" (case sensitive), but it's a matter of taste really
[10:47] <Melsi> thank you very much! I will go with README because I would like to follow the most common/used practice! bye!

[11:42] <c2tarun> Hi friends, is anyone able to do voice call on pidgin for gtalk?
[13:17] <Ankhwatcher> Hey, I've installed #xubuntu on my laptop and I am connecting a monitor over the VGA plug, how do I use my second monitor to extend my display?
[13:17] <GridCube> Ankhwatcher, do you have arandr installed?
[13:17] <Ankhwatcher> GridCube: yes
[13:17] <Ankhwatcher> it's seems to screw stuff up though
[13:18] <GridCube> open it and drag your windows the way you want to be
[13:18] <Ankhwatcher> I don't think I'm using it right
[13:18] <Ankhwatcher> can I run separate workspaces on each monitor?
[13:18] <GridCube> also your laptop should have special keys to change the way it works
[13:18] <GridCube> Ankhwatcher, you can not
[13:19] <Ankhwatcher> how do I keep the laptop monitor as the default?
[13:20] <GridCube> again, in arandr drag and drop it to the first place
[13:22] <Ankhwatcher> GridCube: so the top left monitor is always the default?
[13:25] <GridCube> yes
[13:25] <GridCube> as i understand it
[14:05] <Guest60163> Hey lot. I'm having a problem with my Xubuntu installation
[14:06] <GridCube> !ask
[14:06] <Guest60163> I have downloaded the desktop version, instaled it and it opened in commandline
[14:10] <Guest60163> When I looked it up on google they've told me to install ubuntu-desktop ad so I did. But when I rebooted it gave me an error: "ieee80211 phy0: >brcms_ops_bss_info_changed: enabled true, count 1 (implement)
[14:10] <Guest60163> well perhaps not an error, but it doesn't do anything from that line
[14:18] <GridCube> why would you install the ubuntu-desktop over the xubuntu-desktop? wouldnt that override the xubuntu installation?
[14:18] <Guest60163> Because that's what the post had given me as solution
[14:22] <GridCube> well, i dont know wich desktop you are using then, because if you installed ubuntu-desktop it pulled all unity with it
[14:22] <GridCube> so, no idea whats happening there
[14:24] <Elvano> Well, to be honest, I've reformatted the disk and reinstalled it withouth installing the ubuntu desktop ans it still gives me that line
[14:36] <GridCube> ok let me check
[14:37] <GridCube> thats a wifi error
[14:42] <Elvano> It has worked before, though.Otherwise I could've never installed the ubuntu-desktop at the previous install.
[14:42] <GridCube> yep
[14:42] <GridCube> i see
[14:43] <GridCube> mmm i cant find anything useful on the net, you might have to wait for smarter people
[14:45] <Elvano> I feel so stupid. Now that you've told me it's the network i can read the ieee80211 phy0.... Thank you for trying GridCube
[15:05] <lycan> Hi is a goog option for xubuntu install on a netbook with Intel Atom n270 single core?
[15:08] <GridCube> yes
[15:11] <kiran_> hello
[15:13] <GridCube> !hi | Kiranvotio
[15:14] <Kiranvotio> is Compiz works on xubuntu ?
[15:20] <Tech-1> http://www.webupd8.org/2012/11/how-to-set-up-compiz-in-xubuntu-1210-or.html
[15:20] <GridCube> Kiranvotio, it shoudl work,  but it not supported in this channel
[15:27] <Kiranvotio> everytime i logon to xubuntu it shows a popup stating to select the session how to skip this step
[15:27] <Kiranvotio> ?
[15:27] <TheSheep> Kiranvotio: in the "sessions and startup" setting in settings manager
[15:27] <TheSheep> Kiranvotio: there is a checkbox for it
[15:28] <TheSheep> Kiranvotio: "display chooser on login"
[15:28] <Kiranvotio> yeah i got it thank you
[15:29] <lycan> Thanks GridCube
[15:29] <Kiranvotio> is xubuntu (all 12.10 and 04 versions are buggy ) cause i always get the crash report
[15:51] <GridCube> why doesnt abiword understand the scroll wheel anymore?
[15:51] <john2x> hello
[15:52] <john2x> i just installed xubuntu 12.10 on virtualbox, but have a couple of issues..
[15:52] <GridCube> shoot
[15:53] <john2x> 1 is I can't set the resolution to greater than 1024x768 in the settings manager
[15:53] <GridCube> needs virtualbox addons
[15:53] <john2x> 2 is that the scroll wheel of my mouse doesn't seem to work.
[15:53] <john2x> ahh got it.
[15:53] <john2x> gonna set it up
[15:53] <john2x> thanks
[15:54] <GridCube> :/ abiword its really getting to my nerves
[15:54] <TheSheep> use tex
[15:55] <GridCube> tex... tex... never used tex
[15:56] <TheSheep> it's what the professional book editors use
[15:56] <nyR3dnek> GridCube: use latex
[15:56] <nyRednek> actually, TheSheep is right
[15:56] <TheSheep> yeah, or context
[15:57] <TheSheep> actually, if you are just starting, context will be easier
[15:57] <nyRednek> that system is used at most publishing houses
[15:57] <nyRednek> i didn't know about context
[15:57] <TheSheep> nyRednek: it's a more humane approach :)
[15:57] <nyRednek> TheSheep: humane? typesetting? does not compute
[15:58]  * nyRednek 's head explodes
[15:58] <GridCube> how about, no?
[15:58] <GridCube> better ill get libreoffice instead
[15:58] <TheSheep> nyRednek: well, more modern, fixing some conceptual problems of latex
[15:58] <nyRednek> TheSheep: apt-get install context?
[15:58]  * nyRednek will try it
[15:59] <TheSheep> nyRednek: yeah
[15:59] <nyRednek> is there a good guide to using it? i've tried and failed with latex
[16:00] <nyRednek> let me be more clear, i've found latex cumbersome
[16:00] <GridCube> if it needs a guide, its not a good program
[16:00]  * GridCube puts his little troll hat
[16:01] <TheSheep> nyRednek: http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/ms-cb-en.pdf
[16:04] <nyRednek> GridCube: sure, sure...do you know of a different way to write once, and maintain your text across multiple formats?(text for publisher, ebook, website)
[16:05] <GridCube> pdf
[16:05] <nyRednek> GridCube: um, no...most pdf's don't translate well to epub
[16:05] <GridCube> why would you need epub if you have pdf?
[16:05] <nyRednek> GridCube: sony reader, apple ibooks store
[16:06] <nyRednek> GridCube: barnes and noble's nook store
[16:06]  * nyRednek does use calibre for that conversion
[16:07] <GridCube> mmmhm then use epub directly
[16:07] <GridCube> i dont like epub
[16:07] <nyRednek> epub doesn't translate very well to pdf
[16:07] <GridCube> its just for text and it doesnt look pretty
[16:07] <nyRednek> or for print
[16:07] <nyRednek> actually epubs can and often do include images
[16:07] <GridCube> mmhm exactly, so pdf it is and you dont use faulty devices
[16:07] <john2x> omg I can scroll now.
[16:08] <GridCube> nyRednek, yes, it it broken
[16:08] <GridCube> they never fit where they are suppose to and the look bad
[16:08] <TheSheep> guys, how about we move that to a non-support channel? :)
[16:08] <nyRednek> GridCube: it's also the standard ebook format that the publishing industry has adopted
[16:08] <GridCube> !ot | GridCube
[16:08] <GridCube> u_u ok
[16:48] <Kiranovotio>  my wireless device not working
[17:39] <fatpudding> any one have an idea how to fix this problem when running an SDL program : usr/local/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0: undefined symbol: _XGetRequest
[17:51] <Ankhwatcher> what is the xfce desktop manager called?
[17:52] <GridCube> orage
[17:52] <GridCube> oh
[17:52] <GridCube> lol
[17:52] <GridCube> calendar i read
[17:53] <GridCube> Ankhwatcher, its xfwm4
[18:11] <Ankhwatcher> okay now the login screen comes up over and over again
[18:11] <GridCube> you type your password and it fails and ask for it again Ankhwatcher ?
[18:13] <Ankhwatcher> yes
[18:14] <drc> Caps Lock? Bad Memory?
[18:14] <Ankhwatcher> the login screen wasnt coming up so i dpkg reconfigure xfwm4
[18:14] <GridCube> ok, so go to a tty, press ctrl-alt-f1, log in wit your user and password, you wont see you passwrod while you type, and they do rm .Xautority and rm .ICEauthority
[18:15] <GridCube> .Xauthority and .ICEauthority
[18:15] <Ankhwatcher> termibal login  went fine
[18:19] <Ankhwatcher> yay! I'm logged in and my machine can see it's soundcard again
[18:19] <Ankhwatcher> thanks GridCube
[18:22] <GridCube> no problem Ankhwatcher :)
[18:23] <Ankhwatcher> how would I go about stopping all my previously running applications from being started when I log in?
[18:24] <GridCube> Ankhwatcher, do you have nautilus installed?
[18:24] <Ankhwatcher> not unless it's in default xubuntu, no
[18:24] <GridCube> its not
[18:25] <GridCube> so go to close a session and tick the "remember session" tick box, but have nothing open while doing so, it will remember that your session its empty and start that way, untick it afterward
[18:26] <Ankhwatcher> now I do
[18:27] <Ankhwatcher> can I use nautilus to prevent applications from being re-launched?
[18:28] <GridCube> no, it will break things further
[18:28] <GridCube> thats why its always my first question
[18:50] <Mandex> Hi all
[18:51] <GridCube> !hi | Mandex
[21:12] <JimmyNeutron> I install tightvncserver onto Xubuntu 12.04 and every time I access it, I just get a grey screen with no desktop manager.  I think it has something to do with ~/.vnc/xstartup.  Anyone have a link to a correct xstartup for Xubuntu?
[21:21] <well_laid_lawn> JimmyNeutron: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC/Servers#Customising_your_session - change the startkde to startxfce
[21:22] <JimmyNeutron> well_laid_lawn: Thank You!
[21:22] <well_laid_lawn> JimmyNeutron: that should be startxfce4 <-- needs the 4
[21:23] <JimmyNeutron> Thanks!  I'll test it out now.
[21:25] <JimmyNeutron> Works!  Thanks again!
[21:25] <well_laid_lawn> cheers
