[00:10] <Guest84742> MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
[00:27] <meh> hello. I am unable to change the wallpaper... I try changing the image, restarting and nothing happens, staturation and so on don't respond either.
[02:38] <xubuntu377> I don't suppose anyone could help me out installing intel graphics drivers on a netbook?
[02:40] <xubuntu377> no one? :\
[02:49] <raytray> xubuntu377, not that I can help, but on the off chance. What's the problem with it?
[02:50] <xubuntu377> I did a fresh install of Xubuntu, and it installed with a GUI...
[02:50] <xubuntu377> then it boots in all text
[02:51] <xubuntu377> it's an Acer Aspire One D270-1806
[02:51] <xubuntu377> using an intel atom and integrated intel graphics, and I think the problem is a lack of video drivers
[02:51] <xubuntu377> but i'm not actually sure
[03:55] <unheeding> something is afoot with my mouse cursor
[03:55] <unheeding> it's fine on one monitor
[03:55] <unheeding> but on the other, it appears as a line
[03:59] <unheeding> now it appears as a ghosty double cursor
[03:59] <unheeding> at least it's usable
[04:40] <holstein> unheeding: if it were me, i would try as the guest user, or as another test user
[11:26] <jerli> hi there...
[11:54] <Makdaam> hi, how can I disable an optical drive?
[12:05] <TheSheep> Makdaam: "disable"?
[12:06] <TheSheep> Makdaam: it's diabled when you are not using it
[12:27] <Makdaam> TheSheep: I would like to disable it permanently but without the gaping hole effect in the side of my laptop
[12:28] <Makdaam> it keeps on spinning up when not needed
[12:28] <Makdaam> for example when launching thunar and it checks for mounted media to show in the sidebar
[12:33] <TheSheep> Makdaam: just add it to fstab without permissions for your user to mount it
[12:48] <meh> I am unable to change to the wallpaper for the desktop. Also, I cannot set the desktop icons or saturation... Would anyone have any suggestions? Is this a Nautilus problem?
[12:51] <meh> Perhaps you are busy... but is anyone on the server?
[12:55] <TheSheep> meh: xubuntu doesn't use nautilus, if you have nautilus running, then it takes over the desktop and xubuntu cannot manage it
[12:56] <meh> okay
[12:56] <meh> thesheep: do you have any suggestions as to where the problem might be coming from?
[12:58] <meh> I had this problem even after uninstalling Nautilus (I uninstalled it because the wallpaper turned blue, whereas now the wallpaper is simply stuck on one image....)
[13:00] <TheSheep> meh: make sure that xfdesktop is running
[13:31] <mnass> hi - how to set standart browser for thunderbird - firefox is set in the xubuntu environment - but thunderbird opens websites allways in chrome
[13:37] <TheSheep> mnass: check /usr/share/applications/defaults.list for the http default
[13:39] <mnass> firefox.desktop
[13:39] <mnass> hmm
[13:39] <mnass> must be something with thunderbird
[15:09] <Peyam> hi

[15:16] <TheSheep> Peyam: is that a new computer?

[16:35] <PhoenixSTF> does anyone knows how to find the location for the weather Applet?
[16:36] <Peyam> in Gnome it is under applications launcher
[16:36] <PhoenixSTF> XFCE and its not where it is, it more like how do I put the location for the weather forecast
[16:37] <PhoenixSTF> or better yet since the search is not working where can I find the location code?
[16:39] <ss_haze> firefox vs chromium?
[16:40] <PhoenixSTF> Blond vs Redhead?
[16:40] <ss_haze> why not both ? :D

[16:40] <PhoenixSTF> :)
