| itai_michaelson | hi, i can connect to my vpn with the terminal ,but when i try to use xubuntu's built in GUI (network manager) it gives up after 30 seconds (cannot establish connection) , is there a way i can change network manager's settings to wait longer ? | 03:16 |
| holstein | itai_michaelson: is that the issue? it needs to wait longer? | 03:28 |
| itai_michaelson | holstein, yes, the terminal waits for about 2 minutes , the gui gives up after 30 sec | 03:34 |
| holstein | i would probably just connect with the terminal.. thats not do-able? | 03:34 |
| itai_michaelson | not for my wife,,,, | 03:34 |
| itai_michaelson | if there's another GUI i can use , which allows tweaking its settings.. | 03:35 |
| holstein | itai_michaelson: i would probably launch the GUI from the command line.. see if i could learn how to change it | 03:36 |
| holstein | i might just make a shortcut for the wife that runs the command that is working in the terminal | 03:36 |
| itai_michaelson | i can do that , | 03:37 |
| itai_michaelson | but does that mean that i can't change the settings for 'network monitor ' (or whatever they call it)? | 03:37 |
| holstein | itai_michaelson: its all open, so in theory, you can do anything | 03:38 |
| genii-around | If it connects every time to the vpn, might want to just do a post-up directive in the interfaces | 03:39 |
| itai_michaelson | genii-around, you see , i'm in china and i have a list of servers, china usually blocks some of them , so i need an easy tool to switch between servers, the GUI is ideal ,except that it gives up too early, i wonder if anyone can point me to some config files or something where i can change these parameters | 03:40 |
| itai_michaelson | just a quick question - the network monitor in xubuntu is the same as ubuntu? | 03:45 |
| chromeprob | i installed the latest chrome Version 23.0.1271.64 on 12.04 and the macromedia flash does not appear in plugins! what gives? | 04:43 |
| genii-around | http://askubuntu.com/questions/129534/flash-player-not-present-in-chrome | 04:52 |
| genii-around | chromeprob: ^ | 04:56 |
| chromeprob | it is not the solution for a 32 bit system. moreover, 11.2 is the latest version for gnu/linux from adobe. chrome comes with version 11.5 built-in which is what i need for livemocha | 05:04 |

| c2tarun | Hi friends, I am not able to set chromium as my default browser for Xubuntu, I tried from Settings and also from inside of chromium settings. But whenever I click any link anywhere it gets open in Firefox :( can anyone please help? | 05:18 |
| ruien | hello all, can someone point me to documentation on how xfce handles alsa and pulseaudio, or explain a bit? I'm pretty much lost: I've noticed that 'audacity' has a lot of input options for microphone and one of them works ("HD Audio Generic ALC887-VD Analog: Rear Mic:1"). There's also a "default: Rear Mic 1" that does not work, which makes me think that the default isn't set correctly. I've also noticed that "arecord -d 5 test.wav" doesn't do anything.. | 05:54 |
| ruien | okay, for future reference, fixed by setting "PlaybackBuiltinAudioAnalogStereoPulseAudioMixer" for '/active-card' key in xfce Settings Editor. Anyone know where that name "PlaybackBuiltinAudioAnalogStereoPulseAudioMixer" would have been listed? | 06:26 |
| raytray | Under available sound cards afaik | 06:51 |

| marosh | Hi @ all. I have problems to activate the TV out without using the nvidia-current driver. Is anyone around who might help me there? | 09:48 |
| marosh | To be more precise, there is no TV-1 or similar in the xrandr output list | 09:55 |
| marosh | anyone? | 09:58 |
| well_laid_lawn | marosh: paste the xrandr output | 09:58 |
| well_laid_lawn | !paste | 09:58 |
| ubottu | For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 09:58 |
| well_laid_lawn | you can check if nouveau supports tv out on your card here - http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/FeatureMatrix | 10:00 |
| marosh | well_laid_lawn: Thank you. Okay, in that listing TV out is marked as TODO | 10:01 |
| marosh | xrandr output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1381595/ | 10:02 |
| well_laid_lawn | so it seems you'll need nvidia's driver then | 10:02 |
| marosh | …Unfortunately. Thanks for your help! | 10:02 |
| well_laid_lawn | cheers | 10:02 |

| Unit193 | Sure. | 10:39 |
| Inoki | Hi lads. Is there a way to associate everything web related to Chrome instead of FF in Ubuntu Studio 12.10? When I e.g. use Kupfer to open a link to a website it always opens Firefox instead of Chrome. | 10:42 |
| Unit193 | update-alternatives --config x-www-browser and update-alternatives --config gnome-www-browser and set it through that. | 10:49 |
| Unit193 | Also check "Preferred Applications" in settings manager. | 10:49 |
| Inoki | Unit193: I've checked via galternatives and Chrome's priority is set to 200 and Firefox's 40 under both commands. | 10:57 |
| Inoki | Unit193: You think it'd be good to erase FF's config via Galternatives and re-add it if necessary? | 10:58 |
| Unit193 | Does kupfer have a browser setting? | 10:59 |
| Inoki | Unit193: nope. | 11:02 |
| Inoki | Unit193: too bad there ain't an option in settings manager to bulk edit file options and how files are open. I see a lot of files still being attached to FF. | 11:03 |
| Unit193 | Inoki: Did you happen to check the minetype editor? | 11:06 |
| Inoki | Unit193: nope. I'm trying to edit files in settings manager to be opened with Chrome instead of FF. | 11:07 |
| Inoki | Unit193: I've changed every file in the settings manager to be opened with Chrome instead of Firefox and still nothing. | 11:17 |
| Unit193 | Then other than hacks, I do not know. | 11:20 |

| subman | Does xubuntu support opengl? | 19:15 |
| raytray | Should | 19:16 |
| subman | hmmmm | 19:16 |
| subman | Trying to get flightgear to work and cannot. Also, the default screen savers run very, very, very slowly. makes me think something is wrong | 19:17 |
| subman | Is there some kind of test? | 19:18 |
| subman | glxgears show 2.3 fps | 19:19 |
| AndreeeCZ | hi. Can someone help me install a soundMAX integrated sound card on xubuntu12.10? It is not even present in lspci. Thank you :) | 19:21 |
| raytray | subman, see if you have the latest drivers/etc. | 19:24 |
| subman | raytray, I have no idea how to do that | 19:31 |
| subman | Anyone know how to check to see if I have the latest NVidia drivers? | 19:35 |
| subman | My current driver is 304.51 | 19:36 |
| TheSheep | subman: just install nvidia-current? | 19:36 |
| subman | TheSheep, won't that mess the system up if already installed? | 19:37 |
| TheSheep | subman: how did you install it originally? | 19:37 |
| subman | TheSheep, I don't recall | 19:37 |
| TheSheep | subman: if you installed it from the ubuntu repository, then it won't break | 19:38 |
| subman | TheSheep, should it not be updated automatically? | 19:38 |
| TheSheep | that's why it's the recommended way -- you get automatic updates and all | 19:39 |
| TheSheep | yes | 19:39 |
| TheSheep | actually, you can check | 19:39 |
| TheSheep | do 'dpkg -l | grep nvidia' | 19:39 |
| TheSheep | that will show you what packages with 'nvidia' in name you have installed | 19:39 |
| TheSheep | if you already have nvidia-current, then you are good | 19:40 |
| subman | nvidia-current is installed. But why the crazy slow framerate? | 19:41 |
| TheSheep | check /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see if it actually gets loaded | 19:41 |
| subman | Well here it is: http://pastebin.com/TGFknjpJ | 19:48 |
| TheSheep | subman: looks good | 19:52 |
| TheSheep | as far as I can tell, at least | 19:53 |
| subman | I assume then that this card is just not supported? | 19:53 |
| TheSheep | no, why, it loads the glx extension and all | 19:54 |
| subman | right but the frame rate is insanely slow | 19:58 |
| subman | 2 fps in glxgears | 19:58 |
| TheSheep | did you look for your card's name on the forums? | 20:00 |
| TheSheep | you are probably not the first person to have this problem | 20:00 |
| subman | No, tons of problems it seems | 20:01 |
| subman | It seems the latest nvidia drivers and 64 bit is broken | 20:02 |
| TheSheep | gotta love binary drivers | 20:03 |
| subman | AMD was no better | 20:03 |
| subman | I've never had any luck on my machines with opengl and linux | 20:04 |
| TheSheep | I can't complain about my intel | 20:15 |
| subman | Is there an 'additional drivers' gui program for xubuntu like there is in Ubuntu? | 20:21 |
| TheSheep | should be in 'system' | 20:22 |
| TheSheep | it's the same as in ubuntu | 20:22 |
| TheSheep | !info jockey | 20:22 |
| ubottu | Package jockey does not exist in quantal | 20:22 |
| TheSheep | :/ | 20:22 |
| TheSheep | !info jockey-gtk | 20:23 |
| subman | They are making things very difficult | 20:23 |
| ubottu | jockey-gtk (source: jockey): transitional package for driver management GUI. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.7-0ubuntu11 (quantal), package size 3 kB, installed size 52 kB | 20:23 |
| TheSheep | hm, why is it optional? :( | 20:23 |
| Unit193 | Check in software sources, iirc. | 20:24 |
| subman | I seem to be having more and more problems with Ubuntu ever since 10.04 | 20:24 |
| nyRednek | subman: clean install or upgrades? | 20:27 |
| subman | Both | 20:27 |
| subman | It is not a single machine issue | 20:28 |
| subman | I think this is the related bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/982485 | 20:30 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 982485 in NVIDIA Drivers Ubuntu "[regression] Nvidia 295.40: Unity 3D does not work at all with the new nvidia driver" [Undecided,New] | 20:30 |
| knome | TheSheep, transitional | 20:34 |
| knome | "jockey" should be under "software sources" in quantal | 20:34 |
| subman | hmmm, I have jockey-gtk installed but cannot run it. When I try it says that it is not installed | 20:47 |
| TheSheep | subman: see what knome said | 20:55 |
| subman | I don't understand what 'software sources' is | 20:58 |
| subman | Ah, I see now! | 21:00 |
| subman | There, open source driver seems to be working much better than the nvidia ones | 21:35 |
