blackgatonegroHello, How I change the default web browser in Xubuntu?13:07
nehkzI guess download the one you prefer and remove the old one.13:16
knomesettings manager -> preferred applications13:17
blackgatonegroknome, some aplication still open chromium13:23
knomeblackgatonegro, then that application is most probably flawed13:24
knomeblackgatonegro, or needs a setting of its own13:24
blackgatonegroknome, ok thanks, manually changing every program to open with firefox is a pain but oh well...13:27
knomeblackgatonegro, if they don't obey the system defaults, there's nothing we can do about that13:27

xubuntu285I just installed Ubuntu 12.04 64 Bit LTS virtual machin using Vware Workstation 9 on a Dell E6420 but Cant start the unity Mode, I tried both 2D and 3D getting error - Unity mode is not supported on this guets operating system15:31
xubuntu285Any Help?15:31
blackgatonegroxubuntu285, you need 3d acelaration for unity15:32
blackgatonegroxubuntu285, also a propietary driver15:32
xubuntu285I donwaloaded the latest drive the video card is Intel HD graphics Familly15:33
xubuntu285is is compatible?15:33
blackgatonegroxubuntu285, it may be that since you are virtualizing it, the computer just has not enough processing power15:33
xubuntu285Thanks what should be the enough power (I set it up with 5 Gb of Ram, and 50 Gb Had and 2 processor)15:35
blackgatonegroxubuntu285, well, try to virtualize the 32 bit version of ubuntu instead, and see if that one works. Also the #ubuntu channel is the one you should go. this is for Xubuntu.15:52
blackgatonegroxubuntu285, alternately, you could see a small particion for ubuntu, and just dual boot. Or use a second hard disk.15:53

bar_Hello :)21:54
bar_I really liked Ubuntu + XFCE!21:54
bar_Just what I looked for after moving from Debian + Gnome 2 to Ubuntu and Unity (and Gnome 3. God.)21:54
bar_But I just wanted to know - what's the difference between Ubuntu + installing xubuntu-desktop - and getting a xubuntu ISO from xubuntu.org ?21:55
dbbbar_ make two VirtualMachines and write up your observations!22:00
dbbbtw- still interested in knowing the 'preferred' way to install a locale, for example iso8859122:01
dbbholstein was going to look into it... no word yet22:01
bar_dbb - can you help me realize the differences without doing that? :)22:02
dbbnoep22:02
bar_there aren't any ?22:02
dbbin a previous life, there used to be a thing on another system called a 'language pack'.. I am *guessing* that when you install a localized language you get the locales for it22:02
dbbbut there are a dozen small variations.. just wondering out loud, if I have en_US.iso88591 for example, the best or better way to install22:03
dbblooking at my commercial laptop from some California company, I see about 15 locales for english in all22:04
bar_dbb ? :(22:04
dbbC iso8859 iso885915 others22:04
dbbbar_ have you ever set up a Virtual Machine and loaded an operating system on it?22:05
dbbits very striaghtforward you know22:05
bar_yes22:05
bar_I just think it's a waste of time22:05
bar_if you can answer in a second :)22:05
dbbwhose time?22:05
bar_well, mine...22:05
dbbI do not know the answer22:05
bar_ah, ok22:05
bar_I thought you did.22:05
bar_So if anybody knows what are the differences (if any) between xubuntu and ubuntu + xubuntu desktop... please share :)22:06
