Facetious | hello. 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 |
holstein | Facetious: i dont muck around much there.. i find something always breaks or gives me a hard time.. i usually try PPA's | 03:11 |
Facetious | cool. thanks. | 03:13 |
xubuntu570 | Hi, 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 |
holstein | xubuntu570: sure... you dont want to know the difference though? | 03:41 |
xubuntu570 | im 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 |
xubuntu570 | flavor* | 03:42 |
holstein | xubuntu570: ? | 03:43 |
xubuntu570 | if i changed the log in screen to be ubuntu stock, i didnt think it let me choos what linux to log into | 03:43 |
holstein | xubuntu570: you'll just have the ubuntu greeter | 03:43 |
holstein | xubuntu570: they all let you choose whatever you set them up to let you choose | 03:43 |
xubuntu570 | is there a dowside to that? | 03:44 |
holstein | xubuntu570: i suggest leaving it alone | 03:44 |
holstein | xubuntu570: bestcase scenario, you mess around for a bit and dont break your system, while only changing sometihng cosmetically | 03:44 |
holstein | http://askubuntu.com/questions/195674/how-to-fix-xubuntu-lightdm-theme-after-installing-unity is relevant | 03:45 |
xubuntu570 | okay, 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 |

baizon | hi | 09:33 |
xubuntu301 | is there anyone who know how to get the same windows 7's windows behavior (or ubuntu's) when i put them on the edge on xubuntu? | 09:34 |
xubuntu301 | the window gets maximazed but it only occupies the upper half of the screen... is quite annoying lol | 09:35 |
MoL0ToV | hi 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 |
baizon | MoL0ToV: you can always deinstall stuff | 10:26 |
baizon | then you get more spac | 10:26 |
baizon | *space | 10:26 |
MoL0ToV | but the graphical installer say to me that 4,6GB are needed to complete installation | 10:28 |
sonkey4 | was just gunnna say that | 10:28 |
sonkey4 | best you could do is install ubuntu mini.iso | 10:28 |
sonkey4 | then apt-get xubuntu-desktop | 10:29 |
baizon | indeed, sonkey4 is right :) | 10:29 |
sonkey4 | as ubuntu no longer offer alternate installs | 10:29 |
=== azeam_afk is now known as azeam | ||
MoL0ToV | and lubuntu? need minus of 4GB to install? | 10:44 |
ztxgpsman | MoL0ToV, I have xubuntu installed on a 4GB stick, I've about 2.5GB free on it. | 10:44 |
MoL0ToV | the installer stops and say to me that there are no enough space | 10:44 |
baizon | the best sollution is what sonkey4 said | 10:45 |
baizon | install the mini and then just add xubuntu-desktop | 10:45 |

daswort | Is it right that xfrun4 and xfce-appfinder are both the same, but xfrun starts allways with the `-c` option? | 14:03 |
ochosi | daswort: well the two were merged in xfce4.10, before that they were separate programmes | 14:14 |
daswort | Thanks. | 14:22 |
daswort | BTW: 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 |
ochosi | daswort: yes, after launching it for the first time it should be pretty fast | 14:26 |
ochosi | there should be a way of preloading it in the session if i'm not mistaken | 14:26 |
daswort | i dont see something like that in its manpage. :( | 14:27 |
daswort | Oh, there is already a process in the background. Why does it need so much time? (ಠ_ಠ) | 14:28 |

xubuntu570 | hello? | 18:27 |
Facetious | hello | 18:27 |
xubuntu570 | how do you access the windows hard drive from xubuntu? | 18:27 |
xubuntu570 | i need to access system 32 to find password hash | 18:27 |
Facetious | You should be able to see all the partitions in the file manager | 18:28 |
xubuntu570 | it doesn't have config folder in it. | 18:28 |
Facetious | configuration folder? | 18:29 |
xubuntu570 | im booting xubuntu 12.10 i386 from live cd, and need to crack windows 7 password. | 18:29 |
xubuntu570 | i dunno what to do since i don't know jack shit about linux | 18:29 |
holstein | xubuntu570: i would watch the language, and try using a live CD such as the ulitmate boot cd | 18:30 |
holstein | xubuntu570: if the drive is encrypted, i woudnt know how to deal with that | 18:30 |
holstein | i usually just mount the drive and recover the data.. | 18:30 |
xubuntu570 | dont have the resources to get ultimate boot cd... | 18:30 |
xubuntu570 | the hard drive is shown, just not system 32 | 18:31 |
holstein | maybe its corrupt | 18:31 |
xubuntu570 | no, i can run windows perfectly fine. | 18:31 |
xubuntu570 | i just need the admin's password | 18:31 |
holstein | xubuntu570: i wuld use a live CD designed for that purpose | 18:32 |
holstein | would* | 18:32 |
xubuntu570 | i only have the cd im currently running. | 18:32 |
xubuntu570 | what would you suggest to find the password hashes with only this live cd? | 18:33 |
holstein | xubuntu570: searching, or asking in a windows channel.. i dont know where those are, and i dont know anything about recovering that info that way | 18:34 |
holstein | i have used the ubcd to reset windows passwords.. and quickly too | 18:35 |
=== GrapeAway is now known as GrapeApe | ||
Bon-chan | guys, can i have some problems if i remove gmusicbrowser using apt --purge? | 18:38 |
xubuntu570 | should i use ophcrack? | 18:38 |
holstein | xubuntu570: i would ask a windows channel to be sure... ask how you are expected to recover that information | 18:41 |
holstein | Bon-chan: i would just look and see what is being removed | 18:41 |

qasim | ahan | 20:21 |
qasim | i have vlc | 20:21 |
qasim | rather i prefer vlc but this problem is with every sort of media player i have | 20:22 |
Facetious | maybe a problem with the video drivers then | 20:22 |
qasim | moreover | 20:22 |
qasim | i cant play any type of video through sm player | 20:22 |
qasim | when i try to open any video ...it crashes | 20:23 |
Facetious | what sort of video card do you have? | 20:24 |

qasim | last time on my previosus xubuntu installation i had installed its driver too | 20:25 |
Facetious | do you have compiz? | 20:25 |
qasim | the driver worked properly but it dint resolve my problem | 20:25 |
qasim | what is compiz ? | 20:26 |
Facetious | it's a fancy windows effects thing | 20:26 |
qasim | no | 20:26 |
Facetious | there's a bug that makes videos not work when desktop effects are on or compiz | 20:26 |
qasim | does that compiz thingie comes default with xubunu? | 20:27 |
qasim | xubuntu* | 20:27 |
Facetious | no | 20:27 |
qasim | well i dont have it then | 20:27 |
Facetious | maybe desktop effects are on? | 20:28 |
qasim | i dont thin so | 20:29 |

Facetious | I think you need compiz anyways for that | 20:30 |
qasim | ahan | 20:31 |
Facetious | I really can't help you other than tell you to check xorg.conf for anything and maybe reinstall the codec packages | 20:31 |
Facetious | sorry | 20:31 |
Zelouille | qasim: maybe try to disable the Compositor (in the window manager settings) | 20:32 |
qasim | okay let me find that manager | 20:33 |
Zelouille | qasim: « window manager tweaks » sorry. Last tab. | 20:37 |
