[01:17] a === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [03:16] 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 ? [03:28] itai_michaelson: is that the issue? it needs to wait longer? [03:34] holstein, yes, the terminal waits for about 2 minutes , the gui gives up after 30 sec [03:34] i would probably just connect with the terminal.. thats not do-able? [03:34] not for my wife,,,, [03:35] if there's another GUI i can use , which allows tweaking its settings.. [03:36] itai_michaelson: i would probably launch the GUI from the command line.. see if i could learn how to change it [03:36] i might just make a shortcut for the wife that runs the command that is working in the terminal [03:37] i can do that , [03:37] but does that mean that i can't change the settings for 'network monitor ' (or whatever they call it)? [03:38] itai_michaelson: its all open, so in theory, you can do anything [03:39] If it connects every time to the vpn, might want to just do a post-up directive in the interfaces [03:40] 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 [03:45] just a quick question - the network monitor in xubuntu is the same as ubuntu? [04:43] i installed the latest chrome Version 23.0.1271.64 on 12.04 and the macromedia flash does not appear in plugins! what gives? [04:52] http://askubuntu.com/questions/129534/flash-player-not-present-in-chrome [04:56] chromeprob: ^ [05:04] 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 [05:05] http://livemocha.uservoice.com/forums/2163-feature-requests/suggestions/136875-increase-linux-compatibilty [05:18] 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? [05:54] 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.. [06:26] 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?

I have problems to activate the TV out without using the nvidia-current driver. Is anyone around who might help me there? [09:55] To be more precise, there is no TV-1 or similar in the xrandr output list [09:58] anyone?

Okay, in that listing TV out is marked as TODO [10:02] xrandr output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1381595/ [10:02] so it seems you'll need nvidia's driver then [10:02] …Unfortunately.

[10:38] У меня grub не ставится :( [10:38] thanks) [10:39] Sure. [10:42] 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. [10:49] update-alternatives --config x-www-browser and update-alternatives --config gnome-www-browser and set it through that. [10:49] Also check "Preferred Applications" in settings manager. [10:57] Unit193: I've checked via galternatives and Chrome's priority is set to 200 and Firefox's 40 under both commands. [10:58] Unit193: You think it'd be good to erase FF's config via Galternatives and re-add it if necessary? [10:59] Does kupfer have a browser setting? [11:02] Unit193: nope. [11:03] 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. [11:06] Inoki: Did you happen to check the minetype editor? [11:07] Unit193: nope. I'm trying to edit files in settings manager to be opened with Chrome instead of FF. [11:17] Unit193: I've changed every file in the settings manager to be opened with Chrome instead of Firefox and still nothing. [11:20] Then other than hacks, I do not know. === G4MBY2 is now known as r99 === `mOOse` is now known as m00se === `mOOse` is now known as m00se === `mOOse` is now known as m00se === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [17:09] hi. a got a xubuntu 11.04. how can i change him to 11.10? is it difficult?

Also, the default screen savers run very, very, very slowly. makes me think something is wrong [19:18] Is there some kind of test? [19:19] glxgears show 2.3 fps [19:21] hi. Can someone help me install a soundMAX integrated sound card on xubuntu12.10? It is not even present in lspci. Thank you :) [19:24] subman, see if you have the latest drivers/etc. [19:31] raytray, I have no idea how to do that [19:35] Anyone know how to check to see if I have the latest NVidia drivers? [19:36] My current driver is 304.51 [19:36] subman: just install nvidia-current? [19:37] TheSheep, won't that mess the system up if already installed? [19:37] subman: how did you install it originally? [19:37] TheSheep, I don't recall [19:38] subman: if you installed it from the ubuntu repository, then it won't break [19:38] TheSheep, should it not be updated automatically? [19:39] that's why it's the recommended way -- you get automatic updates and all [19:39] yes [19:39] actually, you can check [19:39] do 'dpkg -l | grep nvidia' [19:39] that will show you what packages with 'nvidia' in name you have installed [19:40] if you already have nvidia-current, then you are good [19:41] nvidia-current is installed. But why the crazy slow framerate? [19:41] check /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see if it actually gets loaded [19:48] Well here it is: http://pastebin.com/TGFknjpJ [19:52] subman: looks good [19:53] as far as I can tell, at least [19:53] I assume then that this card is just not supported? [19:54] no, why, it loads the glx extension and all [19:58] right but the frame rate is insanely slow [19:58] 2 fps in glxgears [20:00] did you look for your card's name on the forums? [20:00] you are probably not the first person to have this problem [20:01] No, tons of problems it seems [20:02] It seems the latest nvidia drivers and 64 bit is broken [20:03] gotta love binary drivers [20:03] AMD was no better [20:04] I've never had any luck on my machines with opengl and linux [20:15] I can't complain about my intel [20:21] Is there an 'additional drivers' gui program for xubuntu like there is in Ubuntu? [20:22] should be in 'system' [20:22] it's the same as in ubuntu [20:22] !info jockey [20:22] Package jockey does not exist in quantal [20:22] :/ [20:23] !info jockey-gtk [20:23] They are making things very difficult [20:23] jockey-gtk (source: jockey): transitional package for driver management GUI.

When I try it says that it is not installed [20:55] subman: see what knome said [20:58] I don't understand what 'software sources' is [21:00] Ah, I see now! [21:35] There, open source driver seems to be working much better than the nvidia ones
