| xubuntu794 | I have been trying to install xubuntu 12.10 through DVD on my latitude E5510 | 00:10 |
|---|---|---|
| xubuntu794 | On boot up I can only see that small humanoid and keyboard at center bottom of the screen | 00:10 |
| xubuntu794 | Nothing else comes up after that. | 00:10 |
| xubuntu794 | I really dont know how to debug on what's going wrong with the installation | 00:11 |
| xubuntu794 | Can anybody here help on how I debug this? | 00:11 |

| chybby | do i need to do anything in the bios/uefi to install xubuntu? | 02:52 |
| holstein | !uefi | 02:52 |
| ubottu | UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 02:52 |
| holstein | i would just try it.. nothing in ubuntu/xubuntu is preventing its self from installing on your machine | 02:53 |
| chybby | thanks guys =) | 02:54 |
| David-A | chybby: if you install from cd, you must set boot order to boot from cd first (often the default), if you install from usb-memory, you must set boot order to boot from that first (often not the default). there may be a button to select boot device directly without setting boot order | 02:57 |
| chybby | yeah I've done that, I just needed to turn off secure boot I think | 02:58 |
| nukke | i'm having problems installing dwb from source. i get, "config.mk:97: *** Cannot find gtk2-libs or gtk3-libs. Stop." | 03:03 |
| nukke | i have both libgtk2-* and libgtk3-* up to date | 03:04 |
| David-A | nukke: (sorry for dumb question) including libgtk*-dev ? | 03:06 |
| nukke | yeah, have that, -bin, -common | 03:06 |
| nukke | however, i checked the config.mk file and it mentions webkitgtk-3.0. i'm downloading it right now. hopefully it fixes it | 03:07 |
| nukke | thw download seems excessively big, though. 125mb | 03:08 |
| nukke | ok it's working now. another question: what's the difference between gtk3 and gtk2? is gtk3 better? | 03:16 |
| MaunderingMoose | Hi! Would anyone mind taking a look at my AskUbuntu question about desktop panels in Xubuntu? http://askubuntu.com/questions/267124/is-there-a-way-to-hide-show-all-panels-at-once-in-xubuntu | 03:16 |
| holstein | !gtk | 03:18 |
| ubottu | GTK is the !GIMP toolkit, which forms the base of !GNOME and is used by many applications to provide a !GUI | 03:18 |
| holstein | nukke: "better" is a matter of opinion.. 3 is newer | 03:18 |
| MaunderingMoose | Microsoft says newer is always better. Literally stopped selling Windows 7 four hours before I finally gave up and decided to buy it from their site. Said "fuck you" and now I'm trying to get Xubuntu to cover all my needs. | 03:20 |
| holstein | MaunderingMoose: careful.. this is an official support channel.. guidelines need be followed | 03:21 |
| MaunderingMoose | holstein: sorry | 03:21 |
| holstein | MaunderingMoose: no worries :) | 03:22 |
| MaunderingMoose | Is there a way to get multiple desktop panels to hide/show at once? Either with mouse-over or hotkey? | 03:24 |
| * holstein is looking into it | 03:26 | |
| nukke | one last question: will there be problems if i add an archlinux repository to xubuntu? | 03:35 |
| holstein | nukke: we cant support that.. but i would expect issues | 03:36 |
| nukke | understood. thanks | 03:37 |
| David-A | nukke: arch uses different package manager. I don't think there is such a thing to "add" a repository that is using .deb in arch. | 03:39 |
| holstein | MaunderingMoose: you cant just click the "hide" in the panel dialog? | 03:39 |
| MaunderingMoose | holstein: I need all the panels to be hidden or restored at once. | 03:41 |
| MaunderingMoose | holstein: my AskUbuntu question explains the solution I'm looking for further: http://askubuntu.com/questions/267124/is-there-a-way-to-hide-show-all-panels-at-once-in-xubuntu | 03:42 |
| fetzy | Hi is it possible to install xubuntu if i already have ubuntu installed on my computer? | 03:42 |
| holstein | MaunderingMoose: they dont hide automatically? | 03:42 |
| Gumby | hi all. I'm new to xubuntu. I have created a panel and in it I have some panel items. I would like those items to align to the right of the panel, is this possible? | 03:42 |
| MaunderingMoose | holstein: they do, but individually. I have six panels and it's a bummer to only have one become visible at a time when set on auto-hide. | 03:43 |
| MaunderingMoose | Gumby: use a seperator and set it to "extend" | 03:43 |
| holstein | MaunderingMoose: did you try http://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=6220 ? | 03:44 |
| Gumby | MaunderingMoose: found that just as you msged that. Although, I believe it is "expand" and not "extend" | 03:44 |
| MaunderingMoose | Gumby: oh, sorry | 03:44 |
| Gumby | MaunderingMoose: right track though, thank you | 03:45 |
| MaunderingMoose | Gumby: :) | 03:46 |
| Gumby | brb | 03:46 |
| MaunderingMoose | holstein: I'll try that out real quick | 03:46 |
| MaunderingMoose | hostein: Is there a way to run a command for each panel at once with a hotkey? | 03:49 |
| holstein | MaunderingMoose: i was wondering if that command would just do all of them | 03:49 |
| holstein | MaunderingMoose: does it do anything? | 03:49 |
| MaunderingMoose | hostein: it worked, but it only indicates one panel at a time | 03:49 |
| David-A | MaunderingMoose: are you using the xconfig-query? | 03:50 |
| MaunderingMoose | David-A: yes | 03:51 |
| David-A | MaunderingMoose: I havn't tested bug guess panel-X is for one panel number X. does it work if you repeat command for all X ? | 03:52 |
| David-A | MaunderingMoose: then put the commands in a script, and call the script from the key binding | 03:52 |
| MaunderingMoose | David-A: I'll try that. Thanks. | 03:54 |
| MaunderingMoose | David-A: Is there a way to make an if/then thingy with this script that would allow me to use the same key combination as a toggle? | 04:07 |
| David-A | MaunderingMoose: yes, the thing is the script runs, does its thing and exits, the next time it runs it must remember what it did the previous time. | 04:09 |
| David-A | MaunderingMoose: one way to remember is saving a state in a little file. the file maybe containing only one word or one char. | 04:11 |
| MaunderingMoose | David-A: That would be easier/more possible than having it check to see if autohide is true or false before setting it to the opposite? | 04:12 |
| David-A | MaunderingMoose: or if you can query the config to find out its current state and then set the opposite state | 04:12 |
| MaunderingMoose | David-A: Which do you think would be easier for a complete noob to figure out how to do? | 04:13 |
| David-A | MaunderingMoose: quering the actual state is more robust (no out of sync states) and probably more efficient since no disk access needed. | 04:13 |
| David-A | MaunderingMoose: an alternative solution, let the script unhide, wait 2 seconds, then hide again. (no state needed, but maybe confusing behaviour if the key is pressed multiple times within 2 seconds) | 04:15 |
| MaunderingMoose | David-A: That's a good idea. | 04:16 |
| MaunderingMoose | David-A: What about a way to get all the panels to show when any one of them is moused-over? | 04:18 |
| David-A | MaunderingMoose: as for the previous question, yes, you can have if/then/(else) thingy in a script. and case-thingy. and a couple of loop thingies. | 04:19 |
| MaunderingMoose | David-A: "statement" I just learned it's called. | 04:19 |
| David-A | MaunderingMoose: I dont know if xfconf-query will report a temporary unhide state for a panel (hypotetically to test and then unhide the others) | 04:21 |
| MaunderingMoose | David-A: -T for toggle. Yay! | 04:26 |
| David-A | MaunderingMoose: xwininfo can report the current height of a panel. maybe some gui automation tool can be used to affect the panels. | 04:26 |
| David-A | MaunderingMoose: almost home :) | 04:26 |

| mrAlmond | Hi everyone | 14:11 |
| GridCube | !hi | mrAlmond | 14:12 |
| ubottu | mrAlmond: Hi!, Welcome to #xubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 14:12 |
| mrAlmond | Is there a way in xubuntu to start an application at startup and to make it re-launched again if it crashes? | 14:12 |
| GridCube | !cron | mrAlmond | 14:12 |
| ubottu | mrAlmond: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto | 14:13 |
| mrAlmond | ubottu : are you a bot? :-) | 14:19 |
| ubottu | mrAlmond: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 14:19 |
| mrAlmond | ubottu : great | 14:19 |
| mrAlmond | ubottu : your creator is intelligent :-) | 14:19 |
| Dr^Fets | depending on your app , you may run it as service? | 14:20 |
| Dr^Fets | there are different ways | 14:20 |
| mrAlmond | no it's a grephical app | 14:20 |
| Dr^Fets | alright | 14:20 |
| mrAlmond | I know that in lxde this can be done using the autostart file | 14:21 |
| mrAlmond | but I prefer xubuntu rather than lubuntu | 14:21 |
| mrAlmond | I know I can write a .desktop file | 14:21 |
| mrAlmond | but the app will not be restarted if it crashes | 14:22 |
| knome | mrAlmond, applications menu (-> settings) -> settings manager -> session and startup -> tab application autostart | 14:22 |
| Dr^Fets | yeah | 14:23 |
| Dr^Fets | but he needs to watch if it crashed | 14:23 |
| Dr^Fets | so a cron job would be fine | 14:23 |
| mrAlmond | I also want this app to start without showing me the desktop | 14:24 |
| mrAlmond | a sort of kiosk-like | 14:24 |
| mrAlmond | btw I wil try with cron | 14:25 |
| mrAlmond | I was asking just to know if there was already something similar available for xubuntu (like lxde does) | 14:25 |
| mrAlmond | tnx | 14:25 |
| Dr^Fets | I prefer xfce too :) | 14:26 |
| mrAlmond | :-) | 14:29 |
| GridCube | mrAlmond, you can have the application to start at login, but if you want to check if its working and restart it if fails you need something like a cron job, something that constantly checks if the application is running and launchesit back if its not, so a cron job its what you need | 14:34 |
| mrAlmond | ok tnx | 14:34 |
| mrAlmond | btw I've tried to configure my app like a "startup" application but just before it's launched I can see the xubuntu desktop so it's not ok for me | 14:35 |
| mrAlmond | I will try to start it in the rc scripts | 14:35 |
| GridCube | what application is it? | 14:35 |
| mrAlmond | an application of mine in qt | 14:35 |
| GridCube | you need to replace xfwm4? | 14:35 |
| mrAlmond | no I just need to hide it | 14:36 |
| mrAlmond | then when I want I need to return to it | 14:36 |
| GridCube | oh ok | 14:36 |
| GridCube | :) | 14:36 |
| mrAlmond | so the window manager is xfce and the DE is xfmw4? | 14:36 |
| mrAlmond | DE = Desktop Environment | 14:37 |
| GridCube | xfwm4 is the window manager, and it works in conbination with xfce4-panel to show the panels | 14:37 |
| mrAlmond | and what about xfce? | 14:37 |
| GridCube | xfwm4 will show the windows decorations and such | 14:37 |
| GridCube | xfce? | 14:37 |
| GridCube | xfce its the whole thing | 14:38 |
| GridCube | there is no package or application named xfce | 14:38 |
| mrAlmond | ah ok | 14:38 |
| mrAlmond | I'm a bit confused as there are a lot of window managers with similar names ;-P | 14:38 |
| GridCube | P: yes, a huge family | 14:38 |
| mrAlmond | all the *box, blackbox, fluxbox, openbox | 14:39 |
| mrAlmond | and all the others | 14:39 |
| GridCube | P: yes, never used those for real | 14:39 |
| mrAlmond | I did | 14:39 |
| mrAlmond | so many years ago | 14:40 |
| GridCube | P: i went from xp to knoppix, to xubuntu and never left | 14:40 |
| mrAlmond | I stopped using windows since xp too | 14:40 |
| mrAlmond | and then I passed to slackware | 14:40 |
| mrAlmond | and ubuntu | 14:41 |
| Dr^Fets | I quit on gnome and kde :) | 14:41 |
| mrAlmond | now these are only experiments :-) | 14:41 |
| GridCube | :D this is going ot can we move it there pls? | 14:41 |
| GridCube | !ot | 14:41 |
| ubottu | #xubuntu is the Xubuntu support channel, #xubuntu-devel for discussion regarding development of Xubuntu, and #xubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 14:41 |
| mrAlmond | yes sorry | 14:41 |
| GridCube | :) | 14:41 |
| GridCube | no problem | 14:42 |
| Dr^Fets | sry too | 14:43 |
| GridCube | :D no problem, you can continue on #xubuntu-offtopic if you want :) we try to keep this place to people with problems, they might get scared if they see people talking about other things and wont want to interrupt | 14:45 |
| GridCube | :D we get many new-comers to the linuxverse here | 14:45 |
| Dr^Fets | alright | 14:45 |
| Dr^Fets | I had a weird font problem, something set my /Xft/Lcdfilter to lcdnone, I fixed it setting it to lcddefault | 14:53 |
| Dr^Fets | but I have no clue what app it did | 14:53 |
| Dr^Fets | maybe xrde but not sure | 14:53 |
| Dr^Fets | xrdb sorry | 14:55 |
| GridCube | no idea what an of those are | 14:57 |
| mrAlmond | just fyi | 15:04 |
| mrAlmond | I've modified xinitrc | 15:04 |
| mrAlmond | and I start my app just after xfce-session | 15:05 |
| mrAlmond | so the desktop is not shown | 15:05 |
| knome | mrAlmond, just note that you can most probably *get* into the desktop if you want though | 15:06 |
| mrAlmond | yes | 15:06 |

| MoL0ToV | i have a problem, i can hear sound but if i insert headphone i cannot hear in xubuntu... in win7 works... suggestions? | 15:20 |
| GridCube | MoL0ToV, check that when you plug the headphones the sound is going through them, see pavucontrol for that | 15:20 |
| MoL0ToV | GridCube, works | 15:21 |
| MoL0ToV | if i insert appears the headphone | 15:22 |

| Wizard | He mentioned they work fine. | 15:22 |
| GridCube | mmm | 15:23 |
| Wizard | MoL0ToV: Look through pavucontrol, maybe they are muted somewhere. | 15:23 |
| Dr^Fets | what soundcard? | 15:23 |

| nelio | and i want to desactivate | 15:36 |
| nelio | xubunto version 4.1 | 15:36 |
| knome | there is no version 4.1 | 15:37 |
| nelio | 12.10 | 15:37 |
| nelio | xfce 4.1 | 15:37 |
| nelio | i think its this | 15:37 |
| nelio | i downloades from here | 15:38 |
| nelio | http://xubuntu.org/getxubuntu/ | 15:38 |
| knome | in terminal, type "lsb_release -a" (without the quotes) to be sure | 15:38 |
| MoL0ToV | Wizard, no there is nothing muted and in windows works... is a bug | 15:38 |
| nelio | No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID:Ubuntu Description:Ubuntu 12.10 Release:12.10 Codename:quantal | 15:38 |
| nelio | i forget pass and know i need to type passwords, and, if possible i want desactivate this popup | 15:41 |
| nelio_ | but i dont know why? | 15:41 |
| GridCube | nelio, how do you log in? | 15:44 |
| GridCube | the password its the same you need to log in | 15:45 |
| nelio_ | no its not the same | 15:46 |
| GridCube | if you want to get rid of the keyring asking you all the time delete the files in the folder ~/.gnome2/keyringss | 15:46 |
| nelio_ | i already try but dont wors | 15:46 |
| GridCube | ~/.gnome2/keyrings | 15:46 |
| GridCube | ok delete the keyring then | 15:46 |
| GridCube | :) | 15:46 |
| GridCube | that should fix it | 15:47 |
| nelio_ | dont appear nothing in folder .gnome2 | 15:47 |
| nelio_ | no files | 15:47 |
| GridCube | nelio_, in your home folder | 15:47 |
| nelio_ | yes | 15:47 |
| GridCube | /home/nelio/.gnome2 | 15:47 |

| GridCube | mmmm how very weird | 15:51 |
| nelio_ | yes i know | 15:51 |
| GridCube | sorry don't know then, the password for the keyring should be the same from your login | 15:51 |
| nelio_ | i put in log in, and its ok | 15:52 |
| nelio_ | when i open chrome | 15:52 |
| nelio_ | apear popup to put password | 15:52 |
| GridCube | mmm yes | 15:52 |
| GridCube | i know | 15:52 |
| nelio_ | and tells me wrong pass | 15:52 |
| GridCube | that i dont understand, because if you are using keyrings then that folder should be there | 15:53 |
| knome | does chrome have a "keyring" like firefox does? | 15:53 |
| GridCube | no, it uses the systems one | 15:53 |
| * GridCube highly dislike chrome and all that comes with it | 15:54 | |
| nelio_ | no way to desactivate? | 15:54 |
| GridCube | nelio_, this should help you a little http://askubuntu.com/questions/31786/chrome-asks-for-password-to-unlock-keyring-on-startup | 15:56 |
| GridCube | but i dont think that xubuntu comes with the password changer by default, you might need to install it | 15:57 |
| Unit193 | Seahorse may be able to help you there, I'd think. | 15:58 |

| GridCube | nelio_, install seahorse like Unit193 recommended it, its not exactly the same but might help | 16:01 |

| GermainZ | Hey guys. I can't move my mouse (actually, moving it scrolls the window). Is there a quick command to fix this, e.g. restart the mouse related receivers? I'd rather not restart as some things I've done can't be saved using keyboard combinations. Thanks :P | 17:20 |
| knome | GermainZ, alt+f should get you to the file menu usually, then you can navigate with arrows | 17:21 |
| GermainZ | That's what I'm doing. | 17:22 |
| GridCube | GermainZ, you can enable the mouse accesibility and use it with the numpad | 17:22 |
| GermainZ | GridCube, how would I do that? | 17:22 |
| GridCube | save what you have to save first | 17:22 |
| GermainZ | Can't save them all | 17:22 |
| GermainZ | Is a restart required? | 17:22 |
| GridCube | open the menu, alt-f1, go to settings > accesibility, tab once, move to left so you open the mouse tab, tab once agan and press the space bar | 17:23 |
| GridCube | vualá! you have a semifunctional mouse using the numpad, number 5 is clic | 17:23 |
| GermainZ | Thanks :D | 17:24 |
| GridCube | once you save all your stuff you figure out why the mouse aint working | 17:25 |
| GermainZ | Probably a WINE issue, didn't release the mouse or something when I quit the app. | 17:25 |
| GermainZ | Oh well | 17:31 |
| GermainZ | Disabling/Enabling the touchpad in Mouse And Touchpad settings fixed it. | 17:32 |

| GermainZ | Mhmm | 17:47 |
| Xrman | maybe there are configs for this exact programm | 17:47 |
| Xrman | crtl is keyboard | 17:48 |
| GermainZ | Yes, I realize that. | 17:48 |
| GermainZ | No idea, sorry. | 17:48 |
| Xrman | I use only mouse when document need to be zoomed sometimes | 17:48 |
| Xrman | probably config | 17:48 |
| GermainZ | If you really want it, you can build from source | 17:48 |
| GermainZ | And modify it | 17:48 |
| Xrman | why not just modify it | 17:49 |
| Xrman | probably one line | 17:49 |
| Xrman | or two | 17:49 |
| GermainZ | .config/ristretto | 17:49 |
| GermainZ | accels.scm | 17:49 |
| GermainZ | (gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/RsttoWindow/zoom-in" "<Primary>plus") and (gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/RsttoWindow/zoom-out" "<Primary>minus") | 17:50 |
| GermainZ | You can probably change these | 17:50 |
| Xrman | ... | 17:50 |
| Xrman | I see | 17:50 |
| GermainZ | (I think only keyboard combination are accepted tho) | 17:50 |
| GermainZ | Actually - never mind. I'm dumb. Editing that file won't do anything. | 17:51 |
| Xrman | maybe it would, I liked editing things in openbox or awesome back then, but never edited settings for some image viewer | 17:52 |
| GridCube | Xrman, i think you will be happier using gThumb | 17:52 |
| Xrman | ristretto is good, just this one feature | 17:52 |
| GermainZ | Xrman, the documentation mention that scroll wheel should zoom by default. Not sure why it's not. Might wanna check this, tho: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=71052 | 17:53 |
| GermainZ | (the link is dead but the point is, it shouldn't be too complicated changing the source and building) | 17:53 |
| Xrman | for Arch user who finds it good to configure computer 24/7 | 17:54 |
| GermainZ | Building an app doesn't take 24/7 of your time. | 17:55 |
| GermainZ | It barely takes a few minutes | 17:55 |
| Xrman | they are probably working on new configuration for day, and sellecting things for weeks | 17:55 |
| GermainZ | (this should be obvious, but have you considered suggesting it?) | 17:55 |
| GermainZ | Or filing a bug report if you think it is one (considering the documentation says scrolling should zoom in/out) | 17:56 |
| Xrman | I'm too lazy for that, but you can do it lol | 17:57 |
| GermainZ | I'm not doing your job for you | 17:57 |
| Xrman | I have physics exam next day | 17:57 |
| GermainZ | Not an excuse for being lazy :) | 17:58 |
| knome | Xrman, if you don't file a bug, it's probably not going to be fixed then, or it happens later | 17:58 |
| Xrman | well physics are best excuse | 17:58 |
| GermainZ | If it really was that time consuming, perhaps you shouldn't be here in the first place. | 17:58 |
| Xrman | ok , where I can put it? | 17:58 |
| knome | !bug | 17:58 |
| ubottu | If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 17:58 |
| GermainZ | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ristretto | 17:58 |
| Xrman | I'm not too good at keeping my acc in so many different place | 18:00 |
| Xrman | must reg lounchpad | 18:00 |
| knome | or you can file it in the xfce bugzilla, if you have an account there | 18:00 |
| Xrman | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ristretto/+bug/1154725 | 18:11 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1154725 in ristretto (Ubuntu) "Scrolling doesn't make it zoom, like it is mentioned in documentation. Please make zooming with mouse only, aveable." [Undecided,New] | 18:11 |
| Xrman | I tried my best | 18:11 |
| Xrman | ok not, but still | 18:12 |
| Xrman | for what reason gthumb also does this | 18:22 |
| GermainZ | Does what? | 18:22 |
| Xrman | mouse zooming | 18:24 |
| Xrman | okay I'm install some alternatives | 18:24 |
| Xrman | eog works the best | 18:26 |
| Xrman | does the thing I wanted | 18:26 |
| GermainZ | Congratulations :) | 18:26 |
| Xrman | just because it's gnome, but maybe should be default | 18:28 |

| xubuntu495 | hey i got a question | 19:31 |
| baizon | yes? | 19:32 |
| xubuntu495 | is it as easy to dualboot install xubuntu as ubuntu? or is something diffrent | 19:32 |
| GermainZ | Nothing different | 19:33 |
| xubuntu495 | does it use grub2? | 19:33 |
| GermainZ | Xubuntu = non bloated Ubuntu, that uses XFCE | 19:33 |
| xubuntu495 | okey | 19:33 |
| Dr_Fets | grub2 | 19:33 |
| Dr_Fets | yes | 19:33 |
| xubuntu495 | im about to remove my opensuse and install xubuntu | 19:33 |
| xubuntu495 | should i use 12.04 or 12.10? | 19:35 |
| GermainZ | Read the changelog | 19:35 |
| Dr_Fets | 12.04 is a lts version | 19:35 |
| GermainZ | 12.04 is a LTS, which means it'll get updates for the next 3 years if I'm not mistaken | 19:35 |
| GermainZ | If you get 12.10 you're expected to upgrade in a few months. | 19:35 |
| xubuntu495 | then im going to use 12.04 | 19:36 |
| Dr_Fets | I am using 12.04 and 10.04 | 19:36 |
| xubuntu495 | since i got opensuse with grub2 is it just remove it and install xubuntu or do i need to remove grub2 or ? | 19:39 |
| Dr_Fets | the installer asks if you want to keep it | 19:39 |
| Dr_Fets | or use the whole disk | 19:39 |
| Dr_Fets | you can also partition yourself | 19:40 |
| xubuntu495 | well i got windows 7 also so im going to remove the suse partition and use it for xubuntu | 19:41 |
| Dr_Fets | shouldn't be a problem | 19:41 |
| Dr_Fets | grub autodetects the other os's | 19:41 |
| GermainZ | I'm dual booting 7 and Xubuntu | 19:42 |
| GermainZ | Though I installed grub on Xubuntu's partition to avoid any problems | 19:42 |
| GermainZ | Windows doesn't really like anything else. | 19:42 |
| Dr_Fets | ah | 19:42 |
| Dr_Fets | right | 19:42 |
| Dr_Fets | I am using a separate disk for w7 | 19:42 |
| GermainZ | That being said, you could try your luck. | 19:42 |
| GermainZ | Unrelated: any reasons to use Windows other than gaming? | 19:43 |
| GermainZ | A VM takes care of everything else. | 19:43 |
| xubuntu495 | nop | 19:43 |
| xubuntu495 | no reason to use windows | 19:43 |
| n-iCe | hello | 19:43 |
| xubuntu495 | otherwise | 19:43 |
| n-iCe | Im on the live cd I have some folders on my windows harddrive that I would like to move to xubuntu and delete windows and install clean xubuntu | 19:44 |
| n-iCe | what can I do_ | 19:44 |
| Unit193 | n-iCe: You should see the Windows drive on the side of the file manager. | 19:44 |
| n-iCe | tried mounting the hard drive and moving the folder to the xubuntu desktop but says not enough space I think that-s because is using the usb live cd memory | 19:44 |
| n-iCe | Unit193: I do | 19:44 |
| Unit193 | Exactly, do you have a flash drive or network drive? | 19:45 |
| Dr_Fets | you need some space somewhere | 19:45 |
| n-iCe | Unit193: cant I create just a partition? | 19:45 |
| n-iCe | and move all there | 19:45 |
| n-iCe | then I will resize later | 19:45 |
| n-iCe | the thing is I cannot find a tool to do it | 19:46 |
| Dr_Fets | gparted | 19:46 |
| Unit193 | n-iCe: With gparted you can, but you then would have to be very careful in reinstall. | 19:46 |
| n-iCe | where is it | 19:46 |
| Dr_Fets | should be on the live cd too | 19:46 |
| Dr_Fets | system | 19:46 |
| GermainZ | System tools | 19:46 |
| Unit193 | Settings Manager. | 19:46 |
| n-iCe | gigolo ibus taskmanager | 19:46 |
| n-iCe | is all I got | 19:46 |
| Dr_Fets | apt-get install gparted | 19:46 |
| Dr_Fets | or download the live cd | 19:47 |
| n-iCe | says I don-t have enough space | 19:47 |
| n-iCe | to install | 19:47 |
| n-iCe | Im on the live cd | 19:47 |
| Dr_Fets | I mean there is a gparted live cd | 19:47 |
| n-iCe | wait | 19:47 |
| n-iCe | Unit193: you were right on settings manager | 19:47 |
| n-iCe | thanks | 19:47 |
| xubuntu495 | Why do you guys use linux ? | 19:48 |
| GermainZ | It's stabler than Windows, faster than Windows, doesn't hang if I start using it as soon as it boots like Windows, is more customizable than Windows. | 19:48 |
| xubuntu495 | No virus :o | 19:50 |
| GermainZ | Well it's the whole logic behind root users | 19:50 |
| GermainZ | But then again I never had any viruses on Windows, so I'm not complaining about that. | 19:50 |
| Dr_Fets | are you sure? | 19:51 |
| xubuntu495 | i feel that windows 8 ruin the whole thing with windows | 19:51 |
| n-iCe | xubuntu@xubuntu:~$ sudo mount /dev/sda2/ /mnt/nice mount: you must specify the filesystem type | 19:57 |
| n-iCe | how do I specify | 19:57 |
| Dr_Fets | -t fs | 19:58 |
| Dr_Fets | likely -t ntfs | 19:58 |
| Dr_Fets | but it should use automount | 19:59 |
| Dr_Fets | sudo fdisk -l | 19:59 |
| Dr_Fets | gives you a list | 19:59 |
| Dr_Fets | sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda | 19:59 |
| n-iCe | no output | 20:00 |
| Dr_Fets | this is bad | 20:00 |
| Dr_Fets | what does gparted show you | 20:00 |
| n-iCe | unknown type | 20:01 |
| n-iCe | how do I gave it a type | 20:01 |
| Dr_Fets | looks like there is no partition | 20:01 |
| Dr_Fets | I would recommend to use gparted | 20:01 |
| Dr_Fets | you can create a partition and also format it | 20:01 |
| john_rambo | How do I apply system wide proxy settings ? | 20:34 |
| Dr_Fets | hmm you could export some variables | 20:42 |
| Dr_Fets | but still, some apps will override it | 20:42 |
| Dr_Fets | you need to edit /etc/environment | 20:43 |
| Dr_Fets | http_proxy="http://user:password@proxy:port/" | 20:44 |
| Dr_Fets | https_proxy="https://user:password@proxy:port/" | 20:44 |
| Dr_Fets | ftp_proxy="ftp://user:password@proxy:port/" | 20:44 |
| Dr_Fets | socks_proxy="socks://user:password@proxy:port/" | 20:44 |
| Dr_Fets | and add that | 20:44 |
| john_rambo | Okay | 20:44 |
| Dr_Fets | and re login | 20:44 |
| Dr_Fets | but as I said, some apps will use their own setting | 20:44 |
| Dr_Fets | john_rambo : someone said the dconf-editor does it | 20:49 |
| Dr_Fets | it's in dconf-tools packace | 20:49 |
| Dr_Fets | ->system->proxy | 20:51 |
| john_rambo | trying that now.... | 20:51 |
