| edinny | did I miss something? | 00:43 |
| edinny | Do I burn it to a DVD? | 00:44 |
| === Lump|AFK is now known as Lumpy | ||
| DMCA | yeah your gonna have to use USB | 00:45 |
| edinny | Will a DVD work? I don't have a spare USB | 00:45 |
| edinny | Any way to put the ISO on an NTFS partition and run a smaller CD to start it? | 00:46 |
| GridCube | maybe | 00:46 |
| DMCA | yeah use the same apps u would use for making a bootable USB but point to that | 00:46 |
| edinny | I don't have a spare thumb drive. Will a DVD work? | 00:47 |
| GridCube | yes | 00:47 |
| DMCA | usually not as its the wrong format. but you can use a hard drive partition | 00:47 |
| edinny | I need an entire partition? | 00:48 |
| GridCube | what? | 00:48 |
| DMCA | i guess it depends on the burning app. mine spits the DVD out teling me to replace with a CD | 00:48 |
| GridCube | DMCA, what? why would you say that? | 00:48 |
| David-A | edinny: are you sure about not fitting 700MB ? | 00:48 |
| edinny | that is what Baserio says | 00:48 |
| GridCube | you can burn it to a dvd edinny | 00:48 |
| edinny | Brasero does not like burning it to a dvd. Do I have to use CDrecord from the command line? | 00:50 |
| Dr_Fets | how large is the file? | 00:50 |
| edinny | oops...does cdrecord even exist anymore? | 00:50 |
| GridCube | edinny, it should work from brasero | 00:50 |
| edinny | 741.3mb | 00:50 |
| DMCA | if you dont have a USB and your burning app wont let u burn to DVD, you can make a 3GB partition and "burn" the ISO to that | 00:50 |
| Dr_Fets | called wodim now | 00:50 |
| GridCube | i know i've done it | 00:50 |
| David-A | edinny: ok, I see now, it says 707MB, it is not likely to fit a normal 700MB cd | 00:50 |
| GridCube | xfburn too | 00:50 |
| Dr_Fets | it's a cd image, it should fit | 00:51 |
| GridCube | edinny, what iso you want to use? | 00:51 |
| DMCA | well it doesnt | 00:51 |
| edinny | xubuntu-12.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso | 00:51 |
| DMCA | they havent been good about making the ISO conform to the 700MB max size | 00:51 |
| David-A | edinny: (the xubuntu-12.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso was 697MB, so it is growing on all of us) | 00:52 |
| edinny | Downloading "alternate", but I was hoping to make a live CD to carry around, too | 00:53 |
| Dr_Fets | use wodim -overburn | 00:53 |
| Dr_Fets | it should fit then | 00:53 |
| edinny | can I find 12.04.1? | 00:53 |
| edinny | Who cares about updates | 00:53 |
| David-A | Dr_Fets: are you sure -overburn will help if the max capacity of the cd is e.g. 703MB ? | 00:54 |
| Dr_Fets | there should be 10 more at least | 00:54 |
| Dr_Fets | I would try it | 00:54 |
| Dr_Fets | sudo wodim -overburn dev=/dev/xxx image.iso | 00:55 |
| Dr_Fets | every cd has a bit spare space | 00:55 |
| DMCA | uh you cant count on that. not all CDs have more than an extra 2MB | 00:56 |
| DMCA | and you can damage the drive if it doesnt | 00:56 |
| Dr_Fets | never heard of that | 00:56 |
| Dr_Fets | anyway, can you just use a dvd? | 00:56 |
| DMCA | braserio spits it out telling you to use a CD | 00:57 |
| edinny | it says to replace the dvd with a supported cd or dvd | 00:57 |
| Dr_Fets | try xfburn | 00:57 |
| Dr_Fets | or just use command line wodim | 00:57 |
| David-A | Dr_Fets: I have had cds where the limit seemed to be around 703-704MiB (binary mega) which would be around 738MB (decimal mega) | 00:58 |
| Dr_Fets | I wonder why they release such a big image | 00:59 |
| Dr_Fets | and name it cd image | 00:59 |
| DMCA | cuz for some reason ppl are against actually burning to a CD | 00:59 |
| Dr_Fets | I burned 730mb once on a 700mb cd | 00:59 |
| David-A | Dr_Fets: good question. a bug fix that takes several megabytes between .1 and .2 | 01:00 |
| David-A | ? | 01:00 |
| edinny | DVD seems to be writing with woburn | 01:00 |
| edinny | nope, woburn will not do it with a dvd | 01:00 |
| Dr_Fets | hmmm | 01:00 |
| Dr_Fets | maybe something is wrong with your dvd? | 01:00 |
| Dr_Fets | try to format it | 01:01 |
| edinny | wodim seems to write with overburn... | 01:05 |
| Dr_Fets | I hope it works | 01:07 |
| edinny | wodim: Make sure that you are root, enable DMA and check your HW/OS set up. | 01:08 |
| edinny | oh well | 01:08 |
| Dr_Fets | I don't know why they replaced cdrecord with wodim | 01:10 |
| Dr_Fets | cdrecord has more features | 01:10 |

| gmg85 | hi guys...is there a program similar to archbey that i can install on xubuntu/ubuntu? | 11:41 |
| bazhang | what is archbey | 11:41 |
| gmg85 | on archbang/archlinux whenever you open a terminal archbey prints out the archlinux logo in ascii art along with some other useful info such as kernel version etc etc | 11:44 |
| baizon | gmg85: i recommend to look at this: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/byobu.html | 11:46 |
| baizon | or you can write your own script | 11:46 |
| Wizard | gmg85: Why won't you just install archbey on Xubuntu? :) | 13:06 |
| gmg85 | Wizard, let me try that....though it would be nice if archbey will print the xubuntu logo | 13:29 |
| gmg85 | will it? | 13:29 |

| VinceThePrince | knome, I think I found it I need to add an extra field to the model personal_ info :) | 13:59 |

| GermainZ | Is there a way to find out why the system hung? | 15:17 |
| GermainZ | I'm pretty certain it's the GPU (screen glitched weirdly and everything hung), but would like to make sure.. | 15:18 |

| GermainZ | Well Xorg didn't crash | 15:23 |
| GermainZ | Which logs should I be checking exactly? | 15:23 |
| Wizard | Look at /var/log/messages.. If it exists on Ubuntu. | 15:24 |
| GermainZ | I am looking at logs in /var/log but there's no "messages", if that's what you meant. | 15:24 |

| Sun`Star | like how? | 16:54 |
| baizon | Skogsmull3n: right click and panel settings | 16:54 |
| baizon | its that what you mean? | 16:54 |
| Sun`Star | size / color position would be right click -> panel -> panel settings | 16:55 |
| GridCube | you can choose another gtk theme too, or choose an image as its background and make it transparent, and... | 16:55 |

| usr13 | If one of us xubuntu'ers wants to try out Unity, we only need to install ubuntu-desktop. Right? or...? | 17:02 |
| GermainZ | It'll come with bloat | 17:02 |
| GermainZ | I would suggest you backup the last line of apt's log file, after you're done. | 17:03 |
| GermainZ | That way you can easily uninstall everything that came with it. | 17:03 |
| GermainZ | Uninstalling ubuntu-desktop probably won't do anything, as I'm guessing it's just a package | 17:04 |
| GermainZ | (someone might want to correct me about the actual term "package", not sure :) ) | 17:04 |
| usr13 | !ubuntu-desktop | 17:04 |
| ubottu | k/ed/x/l/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading. | 17:04 |

| GridCube | P: for testing there is nothing better | 17:06 |
| usr13 | aaahhh Yea. That's a good idea. She can install Ubuntu in VirtualBox. | 17:06 |
| GridCube | yes | 17:06 |
| usr13 | Thank you. That's what I'll tell her to do. (Or actually, I may just do it for her.) | 17:07 |

| GermainZ | Can't you change that in the Keyboard layout option? | 20:07 |
| Wizard | I'm trying to construct setxkbmap command. | 20:07 |
| Wizard | Keyboard layout options don't allow moving iso lvl 3 shift. | 20:08 |
| GermainZ | Oh, okay. | 20:08 |

| smurk | But sometimes it works correctly | 21:15 |
| smurk | but just only sometimes.. | 21:16 |
| Wizard | Hmm, does it work ok when you run it on primary display? | 21:17 |
| smurk | Primary display you mean the bigger one or the one with task bar, etc? | 21:18 |
| Wizard | Yes. | 21:19 |
| smurk | well if I run on the smaller display, it works correctly.. if I turn off the smaller display and run it only on the larger one, then it works correctly too | 21:20 |
| Wizard | :( | 21:24 |
| Wizard | Do other multimedia (or fullscreen) appliactions behave like that too? | 21:25 |
| smurk | nope, just flash videos.. | 21:25 |
| smurk | It's known bug.. But solutions I found online does not work.. | 21:25 |
| Wizard | Solution would be if Adobe stopped sucking at coding. | 21:26 |
| Wizard | You can fill a bug report, but I bet they will ignore it. | 21:26 |
| Wizard | BTW, do you use nvidia's twinview or normal XRandr for dual head? | 21:27 |
| smurk | I do have ATI graphic card.. And I used xrandr at first, and know just whatever it is default in xubuntus's settings | 21:28 |
| Wizard | XRandr. | 21:28 |
| smurk | well, then xrandr it is :) | 21:29 |
| Wizard | I meant XRandr as a protocol, not as console tool :) | 21:29 |
| Wizard | Hmm, than I'm 99% sure it's a bug in flash. | 21:29 |
| Wizard | And I can't help you. Maybe somebody else here will. | 21:29 |
| smurk | There are not any more sources where can I download flash plugin, apart from Adobe site and Software Center, right? | 21:30 |
| * Wizard nods. | 21:31 | |
| Unit193 | You can pull the one from Chrome and use it in chromium... | 21:31 |
| smurk | Well I may try first, if it works in Chromium properly.. | 21:32 |
| smurk | yea, it is buggy in chromium too.. :( | 21:36 |
| Unit193 | Sure it is, it is flash after all. Did you change h/w accel options? And are you using pepperflash in chromium? Doesn't matter as much if you are using the same version of flash. | 21:37 |
| smurk | I didn't change anything.. I'm using whatever is preinstalled in chromium and firefox.. | 21:49 |
