Facetioushello. I'm currently trying to build ristretto from source, and I keep getting messages that various xfce librariries are not current enough. I've compiled some of the libraries myself, but I was wondering if there was a smarter way to get the most current xfce libraries.03:05
holsteinFacetious: i dont muck around much there.. i find something always breaks or gives me a hard time.. i usually try PPA's03:11
Facetiouscool. thanks.03:13
xubuntu570Hi, i was wondering if anyone knew if i could change the log in screen so it looks like Ubuntu's stock? i have both Ubuntu 12.04 and Xubuntu 12.04 installed on my laptop.03:40
holsteinxubuntu570: sure... you dont want to know the difference though?03:41
xubuntu570im guessing, that if i change it to ubuntu stock i would have to choose only one flacor to log into am i right?03:42
xubuntu570flavor*03:42
holsteinxubuntu570: ?03:43
xubuntu570if i changed the log in screen to be ubuntu stock, i didnt think it let me choos what linux to log into03:43
holsteinxubuntu570: you'll just have the ubuntu greeter03:43
holsteinxubuntu570: they all let you choose whatever you set them up to let you choose03:43
xubuntu570is there a dowside to that?03:44
holsteinxubuntu570: i suggest leaving it alone03:44
holsteinxubuntu570: bestcase scenario, you mess around for a bit and dont break your system, while only changing sometihng cosmetically03:44
holsteinhttp://askubuntu.com/questions/195674/how-to-fix-xubuntu-lightdm-theme-after-installing-unity is relevant03:45
xubuntu570okay, thank you for the help, i think i will have to think about whether or not it's worth it for a while.03:47

MoL0ToVhi to all! i see that latest xubuntu need more or 4GB to install. I have a asus eeepc with 4GB ssd internal disk. what are the latest version that fit in 4GB? leaving some space also to store some document or mp3..10:21
baizonMoL0ToV: you can always deinstall stuff10:26
baizonthen you get more spac10:26
baizon*space10:26
MoL0ToVbut the graphical installer say to me that 4,6GB are needed to complete installation10:28
sonkey4was just gunnna say that10:28
sonkey4best you could do is install ubuntu mini.iso10:28
sonkey4then apt-get xubuntu-desktop10:29
baizonindeed, sonkey4 is right :)10:29
sonkey4as ubuntu no longer offer alternate installs10:29

daswortIs it right that xfrun4 and xfce-appfinder are both the same, but xfrun starts allways with the `-c` option?14:03
ochosidaswort: well the two were merged in xfce4.10, before that they were separate programmes14:14
daswortThanks.14:22
daswortBTW: appfinder needs 5 sec to start while thunderbird needs just ~1,2sec. Is is there a mode where it runs but is hiden? Like synapse or gnome do, so i dont have to wait.14:23
ochosidaswort: yes, after launching it for the first time it should be pretty fast14:26
ochosithere should be a way of preloading it in the session if i'm not mistaken14:26
dasworti dont see something like that in its manpage. :(14:27
daswortOh, there is already a process in the background. Why does it need so much time? (ಠ_ಠ)14:28

xubuntu570im booting xubuntu 12.10 i386 from live cd, and need to crack windows 7 password.18:29
xubuntu570i dunno what to do since i don't know jack shit about linux18:29
holsteinxubuntu570: i would watch the language, and try using a live CD such as the ulitmate boot cd18:30
holsteinxubuntu570: if the drive is encrypted, i woudnt know how to deal with that18:30
holsteini usually just mount the drive and recover the data..18:30
xubuntu570dont have the resources to get ultimate boot cd...18:30
xubuntu570the hard drive is shown, just not system 3218:31
holsteinmaybe its corrupt18:31
xubuntu570no, i can run windows perfectly fine.18:31
xubuntu570i just need the admin's password18:31
holsteinxubuntu570: i wuld use a live CD designed for that purpose18:32
holsteinwould*18:32
xubuntu570i only have the cd im currently running.18:32
xubuntu570what would you suggest to find the password hashes with only this live cd?18:33
holsteinxubuntu570: searching, or asking in a windows channel.. i dont know where those are, and i dont know anything about recovering that info that way18:34
holsteini have used the ubcd to reset windows passwords.. and quickly too18:35
