[00:00] then I got a problem.. sigh [00:02] I used the unetbootin, and got the newest xubuntu on it. Now when I boot with the USB, it first take ages when it tries to get the DHCP, and then when it finally does (it's connected trough a modem, and the internet works fine under windows), it displays some errors for like a second (I never get to read them), and boots windows... [00:02] sigh... [00:08] Hi gyus, I need an advice - my shortcut panel won't hide even though I checked it in settings, do you know what's wrong? [00:10] have you tried restarting? or logging out? [00:11] Yeah, I did. It worked when I started the PC, then I just clicked to mount a partition through "Places" in the panel and it stopped working again. [00:12] you got me. i have that with panel 1 sometimes but its never happed with panel 2 before [00:13] And do you know where's the problem? [00:15] Or how to avoid that problem? [00:15] no if it were me and it happened more than once in a while id search the forums, and bug reports, if theres no mention of it ii'd file a bug report [00:16] Ok, thanks. I did some searched the web a bit, but I've found nothing. [00:40] hey i have a question [00:42] everybody have questions… few have the answers.

[02:16] I can hear videos just fine on FF [02:17] did you configure your head set in the pulseaudio gui configuration ? [02:17] No, just how it worked by default. [02:17] usb headsets are difficult to get to work, I experienced it and got one with jack connection which works everywhere [02:17] It is only skype that has the issue that it does not find the headset. [02:18] what configuration menus did you find in skype ? [02:18] have you tried the latest skype for windows with wine ? (never know... ) [02:18] I went to the options page and under sound devices I can not find anything remotely similar to the headset. [02:19] I would rather not use the windows version, due to ads and me not liking the windows layout. [02:20] you know there is nothing much to do when it comes to non free software [02:20] try start it from console, and then look at the output, in case something shows out [02:23] Never mind, figured it out.

Tried to connect through internet with iwconfig, doesn't work...
