[13:09] I think I made a huge error [13:09] I installed xubuntu as my main OS, overwriting windows XP [13:10] Seems reasonable :) [13:10] My wife didn't like xubuntu so I just started my computer with my recovery disc which includes windows [13:11] so the computer reformatted the hard drive and was ready to load with windows [13:12] I got the infamous "grub rescue" screen [13:13] So, I then tried to just start my computer again to install xubuntu again [13:14] xubuntu seemed to load fine, but as I use it and try to load things I had on my original xubuntu I get tons of errors or "already installed by other ..." [13:15] I'm lost :| [13:15] So, after this long winded post, my question is how do completely erase my hard drive in order to reinstall xubuntu cleanly...or is that even necessary? [13:15] greetings [13:15] It isn't necessary. [13:16] But if you wish to dual boot you have to manually split your disk at some point. [13:16] ok, so how do clean or check my hard drive for errors...or do i just reinstall xubuntu with usb [13:17] I have a tricky question ... i want to set up irc from my homepc , the one iam using now. I already found out that it is a difficult process. Does anyone hjave a link or a suggestion where i can find info about, but info which isn't fragmented [13:17] No reason to duel boot as my windows xp seems to be lost in "grub rescue" land [13:17] how should i start m what do i need to learn first [13:18] How do I fix all of these errors? [13:18] its should be able to handle a max. of 10 users [13:18] xubuntu071: You haven't specified any details. [13:19] I don't reallly know the details...it's just when I added things through the terminal I got messages like "already used by another person" [13:20] something like that [13:21] will reinstalling xubuntu give me a clean hard drive with only xubuntu or will I have remnants of my previous errors [13:22] another example is "cairo-dock" is not functioning properly [13:22] Oh.. [13:24] plus I contuously get the little exclamation point at the top of my screen saying that something had to stop because or internal errors [13:25] xubuntu071: I really can't tell you anything because I still don't know what you have done. [13:25] I can only onswer your question: cleans install means clean install, so it will give you clean, fresh operating system. [13:26] ok, that sounds great to me [13:26] But I can't take any responsibility for any data loss. [13:26] what kind of loss data could I possibly experience [13:27] I have all photos and documents on external hard drives [13:27] Dunno, If you have any documents on this computer or music or stuff? [13:28] when you say clean install, that means starting the computer with xubuntu and installing over my hard drive? [13:28] I don't need to do anything before, like gparted? [13:28] Yes. And using "take whole diske space" or manually creating partitions. [13:28] ok [13:29] Depends what you want at the end, it is your PC. [13:29] I'm fine with having xubuntu as my only OS as my pc has only 1GB ram [13:30] Should be enough.. [13:30] BTW, which XFCE does Xubuntu 12.10 run? 4.10? [13:30] don't know...how would I find that info, please? [13:31] 12.10 runs 4.10, 12.04 runs 4.8 [13:31] Thanks koegs. [13:31] xubuntu071: There is "About XFCE" item in main menu :P [13:31] 4.10 is awesome ;) [13:32] there is also an 4.10 PPA für 12.04 and a XFCE 4.12 PPA :) [13:32] für :P [13:32] Is 4.12 out? [13:32] Did I miss something? [13:33] Nope, seems it isn't. [13:33] it's for testing [13:33] would I be better off installing xubuntu 12.10 instead? [13:34] Mÿ göd, thïs xübüntũ dównłoad wïll nêver énd. [13:34] koegs: Yoü inspired më :) [13:34] xubuntu071: Ðepedns what you need. [13:36] I also need a clean install. Enough of playing with strange Linux distros :) [13:46] I hope he won't make his computer explode ;P [14:15] hi there, does anyone have expiriences with setting up irc server from homepc ? [14:17] played with irc servers on vps's for learning years ago, don't remember much, home pc is not really suitable [14:17] it wouldnt have more then 5 users [14:17] and one channel [14:18] why not just use an existing network [14:18] ... well ... its an strange reason but because iam paranoid :) [14:19] and because i would learn a lot in the process [14:20] hmm, thanks anyway [14:23] Done ;) [15:12] how to make KDE accesible icon disappear from applet range? [15:13] ? [15:14] Define "applet range"? === Malsasa_ is now known as Malsasa [15:25] I need to get my system to recognize my external sound card to use with skype [15:25] on other systems I just opened the system settings > sound gut [15:25] gui [15:25] and selected the name of my sound card [15:26] how do I get xubuntu to recognize my sound card and enable it for use with skype? [15:26] anteaya: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting [15:27] okay thanks baizon [15:27] I don't have time to do that before my appointment with my client [15:27] guess I will revert to my old system [15:27] thanks [15:28] anteaya: you can try to install pavucontrol and try to set it there [15:29] sudo apt-get pavucontrol? [15:29] yes [15:29] actually I had that window open already [15:30] it recognizes my sound card [15:30] but I don't know which settings to toggle to get skype to find it [15:31] anteaya: you can try to reset your skype settings [15:31] by removing the .Skype dir [15:31] (but dont forget to back it up first) [15:34] nope [15:34] thanks anyway [15:34] have to jet now [15:48] I read that cheese 3.7.91 is out. I dont finde it in the software updater. there is still 3.6. Will it be updatet ? [15:49] sure, at the next release of xubuntu [15:51] Shud it not be in the software center now like other programs ? [15:52] 3.6 is crashing. [15:52] crashing? [15:54] xfce + nautilus ir right now the best choise, if don't use dash a lot [15:55] multitasks and does faster a lot of things [16:02] Thunar is nice too, ronalds. [16:03] A user tell me the new cheese wil come with the next releaes of xubuntu but that is wrong. It is not includet but shud be in the software center. [16:03] desktop managing in gnome approach allows bigger and smaller icons [16:03] xubuntu583, the next release is released in april. [16:04] xubuntu583, it's not supposed to be in the software center yet. [16:04] cheese is from xfce project? [16:05] I dont know.. maybe it is not stable yet. i am not sure. [16:05] cheese is in the standard repo, so you can install it with "sudo apt-get install cheese" [16:05] Cheese is part of gnome. [16:06] Gnome projects. [16:06] But nobody prevents you from installing cheese on xubuntu. [16:07] that's not the question. [16:07] What's the question? [16:07] version 3.6 crash so i wait for the new version. [16:07] ..and that's been answered to twice already [16:08] Ah, sorry :< [16:08] xubuntu583, if english is not your nativa language, there are channels in other languages well. what's your native language? [16:08] *native [16:09] Naive :) [16:11] Then next cheese wil be on april or do you meen xubuntu ? [16:11] Xubuntu. [16:12] xubuntu583, the next xubuntu release is on april, and the new cheese will be available in it when you have upgraded. [16:13] ok.. thank you. [16:15] Will the new xubuntu have the same system requirements like 12.10 ? I have 512 MB Ram and will that be ok ? [16:15] use older kernels [16:15] kernel in 12.04 is better for older hardware [16:15] maybe [16:16] xubuntu583, the requirements should be approximately the same. [16:17] Ronald why is 12.04 better ? Do you meen it run faster ? 12.10 is good on my netbook. My SSD is slow down my system here. [16:28] because kernel is older [16:29] i was wondering, why do we still have to manually edit config files to get bluetooth aduio working/ [16:30] give this idea in ubuntu sytes [16:31] Sir_Leto, is there a launchpad bug reported about it? [16:31] not sure, i'll check. [16:32] i don't see one. [16:32] so no one suggested it/ [16:32] Sir_Leto, that would be a good starting point, then developers could look into it [16:32] my shift key needs to be fixed. [16:33] it's possibly mentione before, but if a bug doesn't exist, it's hard to start working on it [16:33] +d [16:33] my *fingers* need to be fixed. [16:33] i got to go now. anyway, if you file a bug, feel free to paste/ping me with the url, and i see what i can do to get work on it started [16:34] see you later and good luck [16:34] my shift is actually stuck on this keyboard... [16:34] okay, thanks [16:34] np [16:34] --> [16:35] I have to remember what email address i used 5 years ago. >.< [16:39] last time I used launchpad was in 2010. [16:41] Meh..

[18:49] npif it wont work, just come back :) [18:52] I had triyed with other tuto but it didnt function, I'll try this ; ) [18:58] Hi. I'm attempting to d/l Xubuntu 12.04 alternate amd64. I've tried mirror and torrent, but each ISO burns a faulty disk and won't mount in Mac Finder, "no mountable file systems". Passes SHA1 checksum. What gives? [18:59] from where [18:59] Xubuntu.org [19:00] why do you need to mount the iso in Mac [19:02] I don't, but it's an indication of why the ISOs might not be burning. I've tried 4 unique downloads of the same ISO, 3 different optical drives and three different Macs, and i still can't produce a working CD. [19:02] using what to burn, and what about a usb stick [19:03] I've used Disk Utility and Toast Titanium 9. CDs from the same batch have burned successfully. [19:04] A USB stick may be the way to go, but no point trying it if there's an indication the ISOs aren't working. [19:05] http://www.ubuntu.com/download/help/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx [19:05] and what about the regular iso [19:06] I haven't tried, but then burning it would be unhelpful as I need the alternate. [19:06] whats the special need for the alternate, if I may inquire [19:06] AFAIK you need it installing using FDE. [19:07] ^for installing^ [19:07] FDE being full desktop environment? [19:08] Oh, no. "Full Disk Encryption" [19:08] It's only on the alternate for 12.04. Didn't go standard till 12.10 [19:08] And I want the LTS. [19:13] Yeah, I'm stumped too… [19:17] still looking [19:17] I'm close to my bandwidth cap, else I'd download a few more copies from different locations [19:17] not tried from a Mac, so have to search a bit [19:24] Creating a Flash drive doesn't help either - I get the same error message! What on earth is going on here? [19:30] bazhang: I'm going to have to log. Appreciated the help :) Ciao.

[20:50] sure [20:51] what version is this? [20:51] in particular it fails on Fallback graphics devices [20:51] 12.10 [20:52] you could try running it with different boot options [20:52] !boot [20:52] Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto [20:55] ok i am giving it a try. [20:55] thanks! [21:15] Any good download managers for Xubuntu? :) [21:15] * ner0x did google but it seems wget(console mode) is the popular choice. [21:16] i just use wget, or whatever is in the browser im using [21:17] holstein: Fair enough. Was just wondering if there was something comparable to kget. [21:17] I used d4x in the past. [21:18] !info kget [21:18] kget (source: kdenetwork): download manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 4:4.9.5-0ubuntu0.1 (quantal), package size 1549 kB, installed size 4255 kB [21:18] i would just use it [21:18] I used d4x too. [21:18] well.. assuming it doesnt pull in a bunch of deps [21:18] But now I use wget or Firefox built-in. [21:19] holstein: kget will pull deps. [21:19] hi all, I'm new in Xubuntu 12.10 x64, I'm trying to install compiz with greybird theme for windows decoration. compiz is working nice for now but I do not know how to use greybird theme, anyone can avoid me please ? [21:20] sid__: AFAIK, there were something like compiz decorators, which could understand different window manager's themes. [21:21] Wizard, yes, in windows decorator there is "/usr/bin/gtk-window-decorator" is it ok ? [21:21] how to decrypt swap [21:21] partition [21:23] !crosspost | ronalds [21:23] ronalds: Please don't ask the same question in multiple Ubuntu channels at the same time. Many helpers are in more than one channel and it's not fair to them or the other people seeking support. [21:26] Sir_Leto, thanks [21:42] Seems sid__ was prety impatient.

[21:50] Hmm.. I think emelfm2 is quite handy. [21:51] It is a classic two panel file manager, very configurable. It only lacks vfs support of any kind. [21:52] Wizard: Pretty nifty. === xGrind-AFK is now known as xGrind [21:53] Which means? Do you like it? [21:54] Wizard: It's not exactly what I was looking for but I can think of uses for it in the future. [21:58] Hmm, than you may look at pcmanfm. Is quite simmilar to Thunar, but it features tabs. [22:08] Wizard: That one didn't work so well. :) [22:08] Wizard: I think I'll stick to thunar right now. It's not *that* big of a deal. Figured I'd just ask. Thanks! [22:10] hey, can someone help me with jack and pulseaudio? I am trying to get them to work together so I can follow tutorials and learn stuff on linux [22:11] I followed this tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6J-RQudJx30 and now when I try to play something on youtube the cursor moves faster then it should and I get no sound [22:11] the cursor on the video I mean [22:11] oh, and it does this whether jack is open or not [22:13] ner0x: ;) [22:13] i3ear: Not area of my expertise. [22:14] alright :( [22:18] But you can of course wait for hints from others :) [22:18] i3ear: did you follow the instructions in that youtube video? did you follow the instructions there? have you tried un-doing what you did? [22:19] i3ear: (note, not my area either) [22:23] David-A, yes I have [22:23] and I did undo the last part [22:23] but I don't know how to undo any other part [22:23] gonna reboot though [22:58] * Wizard yawns
