[00:26] hey everybody my xubuntu has been to slow and heavy [00:27] do you know how could make it more smooth and light? [00:27] i've been using it for more than one year now and it is just amazing [00:27] but it is slow now [02:49] Hi everyone [02:49] I need some help with Ubuntu [02:52] hello === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [03:05] 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. [03:11] Facetious: i dont muck around much there.. i find something always breaks or gives me a hard time.. i usually try PPA's [03:13] cool. thanks. [03:40] 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. [03:41] xubuntu570: sure... you dont want to know the difference though? [03:42] 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] flavor* [03:43] xubuntu570: ? [03:43] 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] xubuntu570: you'll just have the ubuntu greeter [03:43] xubuntu570: they all let you choose whatever you set them up to let you choose [03:44] is there a dowside to that? [03:44] xubuntu570: i suggest leaving it alone [03:44] xubuntu570: bestcase scenario, you mess around for a bit and dont break your system, while only changing sometihng cosmetically [03:45] http://askubuntu.com/questions/195674/how-to-fix-xubuntu-lightdm-theme-after-installing-unity is relevant [03:47] okay, thank you for the help, i think i will have to think about whether or not it's worth it for a while. [08:41] trying to send crash log for xfce4-session but when "Continue" is clicked, nothing happen ??? help [09:07] how do I limit upload and download speeds for the whole system? [09:13] nantou: afaik you do that at your router [09:13] how? [09:14] some routers have a setting for that [09:14] see if this has a clue - http://www.speedguide.net/articles/linux-tweaking-121 [09:15] it's old but ... [09:18] nantou: http://askubuntu.com/questions/776/how-i-can-limit-download-upload-bandwidth [09:20] thx baizon [09:32] hey guys [09:33] hi [09:34] 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? [09:35] the window gets maximazed but it only occupies the upper half of the screen... is quite annoying lol [10:21] 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.. [10:26] MoL0ToV: you can always deinstall stuff [10:26] then you get more spac [10:26] *space [10:28] but the graphical installer say to me that 4,6GB are needed to complete installation [10:28] was just gunnna say that [10:28] best you could do is install ubuntu mini.iso [10:29] then apt-get xubuntu-desktop [10:29] indeed, sonkey4 is right :) [10:29] as ubuntu no longer offer alternate installs === azeam_afk is now known as azeam [10:44] and lubuntu? need minus of 4GB to install? [10:44] MoL0ToV, I have xubuntu installed on a 4GB stick, I've about 2.5GB free on it. [10:44] the installer stops and say to me that there are no enough space [10:45] the best sollution is what sonkey4 said [10:45] install the mini and then just add xubuntu-desktop === azeam_afk is now known as azeam [11:48] hello, i can not seem to create a vpn connection. which manager do you recommend? [11:48] Network-Manager, which comes with xubuntu [11:49] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager#VPN_support [14:03] Is it right that xfrun4 and xfce-appfinder are both the same, but xfrun starts allways with the `-c` option? [14:14] daswort: well the two were merged in xfce4.10, before that they were separate programmes [14:22] Thanks. [14:23] 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. [14:26] daswort: yes, after launching it for the first time it should be pretty fast [14:26] there should be a way of preloading it in the session if i'm not mistaken [14:27] i dont see something like that in its manpage. :( [14:28] Oh, there is already a process in the background. Why does it need so much time? (ಠ_ಠ) === xGrind is now known as xGrind-AFK [16:50] hi, [16:52] please, I have an enlga-1320 gigabit nic, its supported for xbuntu in gigalan? thx [18:27] hello? [18:27] hello [18:27] how do you access the windows hard drive from xubuntu? [18:27] i need to access system 32 to find password hash [18:28] You should be able to see all the partitions in the file manager [18:28] it doesn't have config folder in it. [18:29] configuration folder? [18:29] im booting xubuntu 12.10 i386 from live cd, and need to crack windows 7 password. [18:29] i dunno what to do since i don't know jack shit about linux [18:30] xubuntu570: i would watch the language, and try using a live CD such as the ulitmate boot cd [18:30] xubuntu570: if the drive is encrypted, i woudnt know how to deal with that [18:30] i usually just mount the drive and recover the data.. [18:30] dont have the resources to get ultimate boot cd... [18:31] the hard drive is shown, just not system 32 [18:31] maybe its corrupt [18:31] no, i can run windows perfectly fine. [18:31] i just need the admin's password [18:32] xubuntu570: i wuld use a live CD designed for that purpose [18:32] would* [18:32] i only have the cd im currently running. [18:33] what would you suggest to find the password hashes with only this live cd? [18:34] 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 [18:35] i have used the ubcd to reset windows passwords.. and quickly too === GrapeAway is now known as GrapeApe [18:38] guys, can i have some problems if i remove gmusicbrowser using apt --purge? [18:38] should i use ophcrack? [18:41] xubuntu570: i would ask a windows channel to be sure... ask how you are expected to recover that information [18:41] Bon-chan: i would just look and see what is being removed === rastamouse is now known as nothingspecial === xGrind-AFK is now known as xGrind [20:10] hi [20:12] videos do not work properly on my newly installed xubuntu 12.10 OS...help please [20:18] what do you mean by videos?

[20:20] and its like same even after installing restricted extras [20:20] gstreamer is? [20:20] codec or software to run videos? [20:21] I think it's the default that comes with xubuntu [20:21] VLC is what most people use though [20:21] ahan [20:21] i have vlc [20:22] rather i prefer vlc but this problem is with every sort of media player i have [20:22] maybe a problem with the video drivers then [20:22] moreover [20:22] i cant play any type of video through sm player [20:23] when i try to open any video ...it crashes [20:24] what sort of video card do you have? [20:24] nvdea ge force 6400 [20:25] last time on my previosus xubuntu installation i had installed its driver too [20:25] do you have compiz? [20:25] the driver worked properly but it dint resolve my problem [20:26] what is compiz ? [20:26] it's a fancy windows effects thing [20:26] no [20:26] there's a bug that makes videos not work when desktop effects are on or compiz [20:27] does that compiz thingie comes default with xubunu? [20:27] xubuntu* [20:27] no [20:27] well i dont have it then [20:28] maybe desktop effects are on? [20:29] i dont thin so [20:30] think* [20:30] how to chk that [20:30] I think you need compiz anyways for that [20:31] ahan [20:31] I really can't help you other than tell you to check xorg.conf for anything and maybe reinstall the codec packages [20:31] sorry [20:32] qasim: maybe try to disable the Compositor (in the window manager settings) [20:33] okay let me find that manager [20:37] qasim: « window manager tweaks » sorry.
