| kimkam120 | Quick summary of situation- Installed Xubuntu on laptop, never used it before, or any linux distro for that matter. No idea how to work terminal and what not. Need to know some basic things to download. Thanks in advance <3 | 03:20 |
| moetuned | kimkam120: some codecs might be handy, it depends on what you want to do | 03:24 |
| holstein | kimkam120: never used the laptop before? or xubntu? | 03:25 |
| moetuned | !info xubuntu-restricted-extras | 03:25 |
| ubottu | xubuntu-restricted-extras (source: ubuntu-restricted-extras): Commonly used restricted packages for Xubuntu. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 57 (quantal), package size 2 kB, installed size 30 kB | 03:25 |
| kimkam120 | xbuntu, I have had the laptop for a while collecting dust..got bored | 03:25 |
| kimkam120 | I just plan on doing basic things, youtube, browsing, music, watching videos (possible mp4? if that needs an extra codec) and I got minecraft to work..not sure how. | 03:26 |
| holstein | kimkam120: i would just start doing things, and ask when you have a question | 03:35 |
| kimkam120 | Alright, I had a question about irc clients, is it possible to have it like built into my background?..I saw some screenshots of something like that..or something. | 03:36 |
| holstein | kimkam120: in opensource, anything is technically possible | 03:36 |
| kimkam120 | But how does one do something like that?..Im confus | 03:37 |
| holstein | kimkam120: i would run something like irssi in a terminal over the desktop | 03:37 |
| kimkam120 | Let me guess, instructions not included? | 03:39 |
| holstein | kimkam120: everything is included.. but there are a lot of instructions | 03:40 |
| holstein | http://imagebin.org/239421 is one screen for example.. one desktop | 03:41 |
| holstein | i dont feel like i need it as my wallpaper... since i have a desktop devoted to it | 03:43 |
| kimkam120 | So..when I go to download irssi. Full of what, .tar.gz or .tar.bz2 | 03:45 |
| holstein | kimkam120: sudo apt-get install irssi | 03:45 |
| holstein | kimkam120: or search the software center | 03:45 |
| kimkam120 | oh wow..got it run in the little terminal window..nice..sorry you have to deal with this level of stupidity. Thanks though xD thats all really | 03:48 |

| phunyguy_t430s | holstein, I am stuck with the Gwibber thing for a little while, I guess. I got 3.4.2 compiled in a fresh environment, and gwibber-accounts still crashed. Must be an incompatibility. I tried out TweetDeck, and hated it, lol. I hate that it can just run in the background as a service that I can interact with. I would rather just do without for now. | 04:51 |
| phunyguy_t430s | can't just run in the background**** | 04:51 |
| neibu | Can I get some advice on switching Ubuntu distros? I have been using Ubuntu for about a year now and I don't understand the difference between all the different types? Is it just interface or is there more to it? | 06:12 |
| neibu | I have looked at some things online and from what I gather xubuntu looks different and the system runs faster than KDE, Unity, and Gnome. | 06:13 |
| neibu | Many things say xubuntu is great for old systems but what is the appeal for people on new systems? If anyone has advice it would be appreciated. | 06:14 |

| baizon | mahmoud__: session and startup | 10:14 |
| baizon | mahmoud__: http://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-session/preferences | 10:15 |
| mahmoud__ | baizon, so there are some applicatons that run, although they're not specified to start | 10:16 |
| baizon | mahmoud__: then try BUM | 10:16 |
| mahmoud__ | baizon, sorry what is BUM? | 10:17 |
| baizon | mahmoud__: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/boot-up-manager-bum-graphical-runlevel-editor.html | 10:17 |
| mahmoud__ | baizon, but I'm trying to figure out what could the problem me? | 10:19 |
| mahmoud__ | I be* | 10:19 |
| baizon | mahmoud__: you got a program that is autostarting | 10:19 |
| baizon | but not in the userlevel | 10:20 |
| baizon | but in the system | 10:20 |
| baizon | that program makes it possible to check and disable this applications | 10:20 |
| mahmoud__ | ok will try with BUM | 10:22 |
| mahmoud__ | It still doesn't show them | 10:25 |
| mahmoud__ | baizon, the applications are not shown in BUM either | 10:30 |
| baizon | mahmoud__: what application do you mean? | 10:46 |
| mahmoud__ | baizon, eclipse , the PDF Document Viewer and the file manager. | 10:53 |
| baizon | they are starting on boot? | 10:54 |
| mahmoud__ | yeah | 10:54 |
| mahmoud__ | and also a terminal session. baizon | 10:55 |
| baizon | mahmoud__: Menu >> Setting >> Sessions and Startup | 10:56 |
| baizon | In the General Tab: | 10:56 |
| baizon | untick "Automatically Save Session on Log out" | 10:56 |
| baizon | untick "Prompt on Log Out" might also apply in your case. | 10:56 |
| baizon | is it marked? | 10:56 |
| mahmoud__ | Prompt on log out is marked. | 10:56 |
| mahmoud__ | but Automatically save.. no | 10:56 |
| mahmoud__ | should I clear saved sessions? | 10:57 |
| baizon | i think so | 10:58 |
| baizon | you need to clear this $HOME/.cache/sessions/xfce4-session-* | 10:58 |
| mahmoud__ | baizon, alright | 10:59 |
| baizon | but in a failsafe session | 10:59 |
| baizon | i would recommend | 10:59 |
| mahmoud__ | failsafe session? | 11:00 |
| mahmoud__ | baizon? | 11:00 |
| baizon | log in as root or from a live session | 11:00 |

| mazda01 | how can you make it so when I delete a file in thunar it just deletes it instead of putting it in the trash? | 17:36 |
| baizon | mazda01: shift + del | 17:37 |
| duffy | Just loaded 12.10 on two systems. Very impressed and like the simple easy to use interface compared to ubunutu and kubuntu. | 17:38 |
| mazda01 | baizon, thanks! | 17:38 |
| baizon | duffy: nice to hear :) | 17:39 |
| duffy | Kudos to everyone involved in its development | 17:39 |
| mazda01 | i too switched from ubuntu 10.04.4 to xubuntu 12.04, like it a lot. I was sort of familiar due to Mythbuntu being based on XFCE | 17:39 |
| mazda01 | baizon, is there a way to add commands/scripts to the context menu in thunar? | 17:40 |
| baizon | mazda01: yes | 17:40 |
| mazda01 | baizon, like if I want to extract a rar set if I right click on a .rar file | 17:40 |
| Catbuntu | Oh it's lovely duffy. | 17:41 |
| Catbuntu | And the better thing about it is that you can customize XFCE a lot. | 17:41 |
| Catbuntu | You can make it look like GNOME 2, like a Mac... | 17:41 |
| baizon | mazda01: do you have the unrar package? | 17:41 |
| baizon | mazda01: http://foo-projects.org/~benny/projects/thunar-archive-plugin/ | 17:42 |
| mazda01 | baizon, I just noticed that the extract here and extract to are there now. LOL | 17:42 |
| baizon | ok :) | 17:42 |
| duffy | I agree. Use to use ubuntu and kubuntu but the desktops on those two distros have become an unattractive mess in my opinion | 17:42 |
| mazda01 | baizon, how do I get media mounts to show on the left side of thunar? also, on the desktop? | 17:43 |
| baizon | mazda01: it should appear automatically when mounted | 17:44 |
| mazda01 | baizon, the media mounts are both smb shares and nfs shares. currently only a locally plugged in usb drive is showing on the left in thunar and an icon on the desktop | 17:44 |
| mazda01 | baizon, it doesn't for the smb shares and the nfs shares | 17:44 |

| baizon | mazda01: and this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1111354 | 17:45 |
| mazda01 | baizon, where is the default action stored for links? chromium is my default browser but for some reason it didn't know I wanted to open a link with chromium and when I typed in chromium that's not the right command so now it fails when I click on links | 17:46 |
| baizon | mazda01: http://docs.xfce.org/xfce/exo/preferred-applications | 17:47 |
| mazda01 | baizon, if I right click on the link and click open link it browser, it says failed to execute child process chromium | 17:47 |
| baizon | mazda01: which one? | 17:47 |
| mazda01 | baizon, all links | 17:48 |
| mazda01 | baizon, i am in the preferred apps thing but my only choices are firefox or debian sensible browser | 17:49 |
| baizon | mazda01: http://askubuntu.com/questions/143221/how-to-set-up-google-chrome-as-default-browser-in-xubuntu | 17:50 |
| mazda01 | baizon, ok, the command was chromium-browser that was why | 17:50 |
| baizon | ou well :) | 17:50 |
| mazda01 | baizon, i have nfs setup correctly BUT the media mounts don't show on the desktop or the left side pane within thunar | 17:52 |
| mazda01 | baizon, despite shares being mounted within media, they don't show in the left pane. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-K2iH_iHn4lQ/UMy5rzCIhoI/AAAAAAAAAtk/Z0VJH-OzZTc/s993/Screenshot%2520-%252012152012%2520-%252011%253A55%253A35%2520AM.png | 17:56 |

| mazda01 | having pulseaudio issues. anyone help please? | 20:40 |
| Elouin_ | whats your problem? | 20:40 |
| mazda01 | Elouin_, i fiddled with something and now I have no sound at all. | 20:40 |
| Elouin_ | mazda01, ok, thats strange. rebootet already?^^ | 20:41 |
| mazda01 | Elouin_, yes, just rebooted | 20:41 |
| mazda01 | Elouin_, checked alsamixer and all are not muted and turned up | 20:42 |
| Elouin_ | mazda01, you also checked the pulseaudio tool? and if it is set on the right hardware? | 20:43 |
| well_laid_lawn | might help to mention what you fiddled with... | 20:43 |
| Elouin_ | that would have been my next question... | 20:43 |
| mazda01 | Elouin_, ok, i got sound back again BUT i can't get any feedback from my MIC | 20:47 |
| Elouin_ | mazda01, so, what have you fiddled with and is mic on the right hardware devise? | 20:48 |
| mazda01 | Elouin_, i was fiddling with loopback devices to try to stream both game audio and mic input but have since rebooted | 20:49 |
| mazda01 | how do I tell if mic is on the right hardware device? | 20:49 |
| Elouin_ | just lookup the pulseaudiosettings on wich hardware device input is set... | 20:50 |
| mazda01 | Elouin_, Input Devices is set to Mic | 20:51 |
| mazda01 | Elouin_, Microphone | 20:51 |
| Elouin_ | mazda01, under the port option you can change wich audio plug he is using... | 20:52 |
| Elouin_ | mazda01, or do you have just one? | 20:52 |
| mazda01 | Elouin_, port option? I only have 1 mic plug in my computer | 20:52 |
| mazda01 | I have a VT8237A/VT8251 HDA onboard sound card | 20:54 |
| Elouin_ | mazda01, when you press alt+F3 and type in pulseaudio there should appear the settings appliucation and there you can chosse the port for that. | 20:54 |
| mazda01 | Elouin_, alt-f3 brings up nothing. alt-f2 brings up dialog box to enter command but when I enter pulseaudio nothing happens | 20:57 |
| rhin0 | can't figure out why my ssh setup .. have used ssh-keygen -- ssh-copy-id then ssh-addpass (after clearing down .ssh on both client and server) .. it's suddenly started asking for password the login password not the passphrase .. that's never happened before | 20:57 |

| rhin0 | i clear everything down and start again | 21:02 |
| Elouin_ | mazda01, hmm ok. | 21:02 |
| rhin0 | no its still there | 21:02 |
| mazda01 | I can't believe it's so hard to record from an analog mic | 21:02 |
| xubuntu963 | if ssh can't find matching public/private key pair, it asks for a password | 21:02 |
| Elouin_ | mazda01, you checked your mic with the normal audiorecorder? | 21:03 |
