| r4y | I need to do some things I have thought of but I will be back sometime. I hope to come back today but I am not sure yet. | 05:10 |
| r4y | I know of 3 ways to install flash, I am not sure about gnash and other replacements however because when I go to edit prefences applications in Firefox I can't get the paths to work and stick so | 05:12 |
| r4y | I will be back and sorry for all the trouble before. I have been a little upset about the whole flash problem I have been having. I don't understand why some people say they are happy they completely disabled flash when there are flash videos out there they might not be able to watch without flash | 05:15 |
| r4y | OK, I did not run any test but I found this link: | 05:23 |

| r4y | As you can see sse2 is not on that list | 05:25 |
| r4y | Some flash videos that are on my computer when played through totem are completely smeared diagonally and some are as clear as should be | 05:29 |
| r4y | I use smplayer to play the smeared flash videos | 05:30 |
| r4y | The only difference I see from the 2 videos I am trying to veiw is that the dimensions of the unsmeared flash video is 400 x 224 and the smeared flash video is 426 x 240 | 05:32 |
| r4y | that is no difference otherwise stated that I noticed to be different with these 2 flash videos | 05:33 |
| r4y | I tried getting a screenshot but it is black everytime | 05:36 |
| r4y | Alright so I need to go do chores as well as run some tests I thought of trying. Take care | 05:37 |
| WhiteHippo | Hello all. I have an intermittent problem with ubuntu, suspected cause being banshee. After several hours of playing music, it messes up the taskbar graphics into squares of.. colour pixels. I'm running ubuntu 12.10 with cinnamon, and this problem only started after installing banshee. | 05:41 |
| WhiteHippo | marco? | 05:46 |
| kalenjohnson | WhiteHippo, so if you leave it on for multiple hours with Banshee closed, you don't have any issues? | 06:36 |
| robert__ | I'm trying find help with editing one of those icons along the left side of the screen. Can someone please point me in the right direction? | 09:35 |
| geirha | First you have to find the icon | 09:36 |
| geirha | Or maybe you mean you want to set a different icon for one of the launchers? | 09:37 |
| robert__ | I realize that I said stupid stuff. What happened is that I installed google-earth and while it was running I pinned the icon to the thing along the left side of the screen. It just shows a question mark. I would like to change it to something to identify what it starts. | 09:38 |
| robert__ | It might just be easier to start it from a terminal. | 09:39 |

| r4y | I've decided that this link was the answer I was looking for: | 11:42 |
| r4y | http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linuxquestions-org-member-success-stories-23/getting-flash-plug-in-to-work-with-older-cpus-4175420481/ | 11:42 |
| r4y | gnash did work but it was slow compared to flash 10.3 | 11:43 |
| r4y | And I think the reason why I have and can reproduce results for videos that are flash that are smeared and not smeared has to do with when the videos were made | 11:44 |
| r4y | compared to my hardware | 11:44 |
| r4y | or flash or something like that | 11:44 |
| r4y | I've thought of trying the windows version of firefox through wine or playonlinux but at this point I am fairly happy that I can even view videos from the internet | 11:46 |
| r4y | I found this link: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1709156.html see ya, and ty all for the help over the years | 11:51 |

| Nick_UbuntuNoob | Hey guys, I'm brand new to linux and am trying to format my USB drive but can't find out how to do that | 19:33 |
| holstein | !format | 19:33 |
| ubot93 | For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/installation-guide/i386/partitioning.html - For partitioning programs see !GParted, !QtParted (!Kubuntu 8.10 and lower) or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap | 19:33 |
| holstein | Nick_UbuntuNoob: i use gparted.. i use it with *care* | 19:33 |
| Nick_UbuntuNoob | how can I get gparted? I remember seeing the terminal command but am seriously like 30 minutes of use time brand new | 19:34 |
| holstein | http://askubuntu.com/questions/22381/how-to-format-a-usb-flash-drive | 19:34 |
| holstein | or, open the package manager of your choice and install gparted | 19:34 |
| holstein | http://www.techheadz.co.uk/223.html | 19:35 |
| Nick_UbuntuNoob | ah cool, got that installed | 19:37 |
| Nick_UbuntuNoob | where the heck did it install? | 19:39 |
| Nick_UbuntuNoob | nevermind, figured out the search function on the Ubuntu button or whatever it's called | 19:40 |
| Nick_UbuntuNoob | man, this is actually working now which is great. I tried this on my girlfriend's laptop but kept receiving device in use errors. | 19:42 |
| Nick_UbuntuNoob | so I think I understand how to make a multi partition for this USB device, does it matter whether the partition is resized to have data before or after it? I just received a popup saying that moving a /boot partition can cause OS launch failure | 19:46 |
| holstein | Nick_UbuntuNoob: what are you trying to do? | 19:47 |
| Nick_UbuntuNoob | and what is the difference in alignment from cylinder to MiB? Should one be used over the other for this? | 19:47 |
| Nick_UbuntuNoob | I just want to make my 8gb USB drive have two partitions | 19:48 |
| holstein | Nick_UbuntuNoob: i would do that with the partition tool i mentioned.. gparted | 19:48 |
| Nick_UbuntuNoob | yeah, I'm in GParted right now | 19:49 |
| Nick_UbuntuNoob | I've deleted the partition it had, created a new fat32. Now I'm trying to resize it but want to ensure I'm using correct settings | 19:49 |
| Nick_UbuntuNoob | figured it out; thanks for the help guys | 20:02 |
| holstein | it? | 20:02 |
