[00:07] xubuntu200: go to Menu > Settings Manager > Keyboard > Layout [00:08] uncheck "use system settings" and add the Greek keyboard layout [00:29] nukke [00:29] i did it [00:29] i added Greek [00:29] but still cant change language [00:29] and in ibus still its chinese the option for input method [00:30] Please read /usr/share/doc/im-switch/README.Debian.gz . No user configuration enabled for en_US. Restart the X session to activate the selected Imput Method. [00:30] oh now i saw it [00:30] it has to do with my case? [00:33] restart your session or just restart your computer [00:34] cant do something like unity --replace? [00:34] :P [00:36] xubuntu200, when you login choose the greek language from the drop down menu [00:41] okie i am back [00:41] lets see now [00:42] still chinese [00:42] after logout [00:42] :( [00:42] in the login screen, there should be an Accessibility icon somewhere. click on it and select Greek [00:43] hm i have to choose only between xfce session and xubuntu [00:43] wich is the difference by the way of them two? [00:46] xubuntu200_, no, under that, there is a language setting [00:46] okie i ll check again [00:47] but please dont tell me that if i want to change every time language between greek and english that i ll have to do it :P [00:47] xubuntu200_, http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-M9mrg-_oNl8/UH-qDsulHZI/AAAAAAAAK_4/xEge8znDB1w/s1600/xubuntu12.10-login-screen.png [00:47] there is an example [00:48] see how it says "english - usa" [00:48] oh i see now...what stupid i am [00:48] xubuntu200_, that would change the interface to another lang, you need to do that each time, you can still read any language on files and such [00:49] oh but my problem is just the keyboard [00:49] i want to changer languages [00:49] as i am typing in a editor [00:49] you can change just the keyboard by using a keyboard switcher [00:49] no need to change the interface to anything [00:49] that would not help [00:49] add the keyboard switcher plugin to the panel [00:49] so where is a keyboard switcher? [00:51] oh i did it [00:51] hehe was too simple [00:51] what a shame of me [00:51] thank you anyway so much! [00:52] have a good night!!! [00:53] xubuntu200_, :) no problem [00:53] good nights [07:01] hi, is it possible to disable the F1 key binding in xfce4-terminal? [07:06] nyuszika7h: yes [07:07] baizon: how would I go about doing that? I've already ticked "Disable menu shortcut keys" and "Disable all menu access keys". [07:08] nyuszika7h: what does happen when you press F1? [07:08] sec [07:11] baizon: http://i.imgur.com/EDvXbsY.png [07:12] nyuszika7h: check the xfce keyboard bindings in the settings window [07:15] baizon: there are no key binding settings in Edit -> Preferences, and Settings Manager -> Hardware -> Keyboard only has shortcuts for launching apps (no F1 there). [07:15] <[uzver]> i just use F1 to launch other application [07:16] <[uzver]> *custom [07:17] [uzver]: but I need the F1 key for terminal apps [07:17] nyuszika7h: http://docs.xfce.org/faq [07:26] baizon: I don't get it, I added that to my ~/.gtkrc-2.0, where should I look now? [07:26] oh I see, but pressing backspace does nothing [07:27] enabling it in the config didn't fix it either :/ [08:59] hello [08:59] ola [09:00] leoquant, what's going on with that wave? [09:01] after dist-upgrading from 12.04 to 12.10, I missed the new version of lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf. Any ideas about how to find it? [09:02] my lightdm greeting screen looks so bad now :S [09:05] g0to, theme missing or what does look bad? [09:05] brainwash, I think it's a theme missing issue [09:06] I was using Greybird-lightdm [09:07] tried a dpkg-reconfigure, but it keeps the old version file [09:08] g0to, try Greybird instead of Greybird-lightdm [09:13] brainwash, ok, I will. Thanks ;) [11:01] hello guys [11:01] i have a problem that pisses me from yesterday [11:01] i installed some editors in my xubuntu like geany and code blocks [11:02] when i am trying to run a small programm that i am writing its always says me that permission dont allow to run it [11:02] i even runned geany editor [11:02] with gksudo geany [11:02] and still this permission error when i am trying to run my c program [11:02] just a hello word program :P [11:07] I installed CB from repo a few days ago and dont have any permission issues on running [11:07] seronis: Whats "CB"? [11:07] codeblocks [11:08] And what exactly are you doing, and which error do you get, using which ubuntu version? [11:08] xubuntu776, did you install from repo or compile yourself or use a nightly build? on linux i've only ever used the repo install [11:10] i just downloaded them from software ubuntu center :P [11:10] w8 bekks [11:10] xubuntu776: Why shall I wait? [11:10] Permission denied [11:11] about the error that i had to check wich is [11:11] :P [11:12] xubuntu776: I was talking to seronis [11:12] you were? [11:12] i dont have an error. i was responding to 776 with my CB comment [11:13] you asked me [11:13] [14:08] And what exactly are you doing, and which error do you get, using which ubuntu version? [11:13] and i am running xubuntu 12.10 [11:13] permission denied is the error [11:13] xubuntu776: I asked seronis. [11:13] i tried gksudo geany but still the same [11:13] bekks, i dont have any errors. was just responding to 776 since he said he was having an issue with C::B [11:14] seronis: ah ok. [11:14] xubuntu776: Then I should ask you :) [11:14] xubuntu776, your CB version is 12.11 correct? === anaconda_ is now known as Guest94786 [11:16] seronis no its 10.04 [11:16] and geany editor version is 1.22 [11:20] xubuntu776, just a disclaimer. I am really new to xubuntu myself. But I have nothing else to do so I dont mind trying to help if i can [11:20] I'm assuming you have the build-essentials package installed [11:21] codeblocks itself doesnt have it as a dependancy because you can use lots of diff compilers. but you'll need it for C/C++ compiling [11:21] seronis sure! ofcourse i dont require anything just ask :) i am also so newbie in linux general :D [11:21] hm build essentials dont know lol [11:22] err.. no 's' on the package name [11:22] sudo apt-get install build-essential [11:23] checked from synaptic manager [11:23] and yes i have them installed [11:23] :) [11:33] xubuntu776, see if this helps http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=794802 [11:40] 2 people in that thread. one of them seemed to have the issue due to a bad build command being used and the other from using a bad location for his files [11:40] honestly the -Wall flag mentioned shouldnt prevent anything unless there is a compile warning preventing the binary from being created so i dont understand WHY it worked for the first person [11:41] and im not fmailiar enough with linux to know why the location matters (as long as you're not putting your source code in a 'root' owned location) [11:43] -Wall doesnt prevent anything, it enables all warnings. [11:43] I know that.. but he might have "treat warnings as errors" enabled [11:44] You mean -Werror [11:45] possibly. been a long time since i used the flags via cli. im used to checkboxes [11:49] hmmm i made codeblock to work just saving the file with the code before buiding it with the extention .c! and now runs! but in geany doesnt work the same [11:51] yeah you need to manually save before building in C::B [11:51] it doesnt autosave by default, though you can enable it in preferences somewhere [11:51] yeah! i am glad that can compile my simple c programs! [11:52] now do C++ and see if it works =-) [11:52] i think that even if they saying that linux are great for developers still its so frustronated [11:52] to make something simple to work [11:58] bekks, since you seem to know a bit about gcc do you also know any channels for programming help on freenode? other than #learnprogramming [11:58] seronis: ##gcc e.g. [11:58] the wieerd is that when i am trying to execute the executable file that created from compiling of codeblock isnt allowed...i used terminal something like sudo bash test1 but it says me cannot execute binary files [11:59] Check the permissions of that file. [11:59] ls -lha thefilename [11:59] bash ? [11:59] why would you need to bash a binary ? [11:59] No one knows. [12:00] also you shouuldnt need to sudo either [12:00] seronis because if its executable why doesnt run? [12:00] xubuntu776: Pastebin "ls -lha yourfilename" and "file filename". [12:00] in windows i could run it [12:00] xubuntu776: Windows is irrelevant. [12:00] im saying bash does scripts.. not binaries [12:00] just use the program name on its own [12:01] ie ./hello [12:01] bash does scripts AND binaries. [12:01] bash is a shell. [12:01] ah. i've never had to prepend bash on the command line unless it was a script [12:01] my misunderstanding [12:01] bekks rwxrwxr -x 1 nick nick 7.2 kb May 9 14:37 testaman [12:02] and just typing the binary name doesnt run it ? [12:02] xubuntu776: And whats the "file testaman" output? [12:02] just a hello word :P [12:02] No. [12:02] Type that commmand. [12:03] "file testaman". [12:04] testaman: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.24, BuildID[sha1]=0xee78a14c6fbf051496bdf61fee0da97957c441b9, not strippe [12:05] looks like mine [12:05] Ohayo: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.24, BuildID[sha1]=0xa0631ed274d76fe4559c66f6060aca29eb47572e, not stripped [12:06] seronis: Yours is a 64bit binary. [12:06] minor detail [12:08] yeah heh [12:11] so does typing ./testaman run your program ? [12:11] nop [12:11] i wouldnt say it [12:11] since there is no my hello word :P [12:12] huh ? [12:12] the testaman is just a prinf hello word [12:12] :P [12:13] correct.. and from the command line you should be able to type ./testaman to run the program [12:13] you shouldnt need sudo or bash [12:13] just ./testaman [12:14] the ./ is important [12:15] seronis oh thank :D it worked like a charm :D [12:15] but why bash isnt working too? [12:15] typing what i said uses whatever shell you are in. i've just never used bash as part of the command [12:15] so not familiar with why it would or wouldnt work [12:18] I was told to just use ./name anytime i run a program from the CLI that isnt in the path [12:18] and that IS in the current working directory of course [12:19] using ./name just makes it a fully resolved pathname or something (sorry i dont know more) [12:30] hello. apparently my internet setup took a shit on me. eth0 on the desktop is showing as not managed in the network manager, and I can't connect to my server via ics anymore. little help, please? [12:40] never mind. got some strange artefacts in the NM, but I'm back in [12:40] seronis thank you so much you explained me alot ;) ye ./name is easy way to run your programs [12:41] you come from windows as a developer? ;) [12:44] sorta? im just a hobbyist. did Basic on AppleII's growing up, HyperScript on iMacs in school, then C coding MUDs over telnet before working on C and C++ on my desktop [12:44] primarily a windows user since Win98se. installed linux randomly here and there [12:45] muds <3 [12:45] and xubuntu for just over a week. since I noticed 3 dozen of my steam games have linux versions figure id give it a try [12:47] ntzrmtthihu777, was it you making the python mud ? [12:47] seronis: nope, lol. I know not python. I am however developing a foss alternative to RPG Maker XP/VX/Ace [12:49] sounds fun. ive been considering making a dwarf fortress style clone to learn SFML [12:49] probably more on the complexity level of Gnomoria instead of DF though [12:49] =-) [12:51] seronis: lol, I'm planning to write some ruby bindings for sfml for this project. I can do it in pure ruby + rubysdl, but its a bit slow [12:53] really? I thought ruby compiled to effectively C++ speed (personal ruby experience limited to hello world difficulty stuff) [12:54] seronis: some stuff can be fast as c++, but heavy graphics work can get slow as hell. still have not found an effective method of compiling ruby to an exe yet :/ [13:00] seronis the same too ;) for a hobbyist you are so good especially if you work in c/c++ ;) i am windows user from windows 95 lol so its a bit hard the transfer! [13:00] same, lol. I started in win98, but I have made the transer nicely. I have been using various linux distros for about a year. [13:02] cd [13:02] oops, lol. wrong tilda [13:13] ntzrmtthihu777 and what you think about Linix?helps more or?what pron cons? [13:14] xubuntu776: pros: too many to list. cons: too many hardware developers don't take it into account. [13:15] all these fancy pieces of hardware, windows and mac certified, but they don't think of linux when designing the drivers. were the playing field even twould be no cons whatsoever. [13:16] yeah i agree the worst con is mostly the bad support from some drivers like ati guys :) well for to be honest one thing that i dont like also to linux and i believe that is something that make bad to his reputation [13:17] its just the alot fan boys of linux act like fanatic anarchissts or communismies [13:17] that they are all the time like "wohooo Linux is the light of humanity,microsoft sucks because its a company etc [13:18] people need to hear specific pros and cons and not manifests against the capitalism :P [13:20] Microsoft have done a lot of cool stuff of late, mainly their r&d and server branches [13:21] yeah maybe...i dont know since i havent checked server branches but i think that windows 7 was cool [13:21] i mean she have make some really bad shits [13:21] like vista and melenium [13:21] but 7 was awesome [13:22] and windows 8 was cool but mostly for a average user that wanted only fast facebook and farm ville wihout lag lol :P [13:22] 7 is crap. [13:22] and 8 is worse. [13:22] why? [13:23] last good thing ms produced was xp, imho. [13:23] 8 is crap because it makes your pc in a microsoft tablet with the ms store etc lol but its very fast and light os [13:23] !ot [13:23] #xubuntu is the Xubuntu support channel, #xubuntu-devel for discussion regarding development of Xubuntu, and #xubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! [13:23] why not? I could go on and on about how big of a res hog it was and is... XD o yeah. support. [13:26] res hog?what means? :P [13:27] resource hog. [13:27] but again, ot. [13:28] well surely the winner there is os like linux,bsd.unix based [13:28] but nowdays almost all the users have a good pc [13:28] with at least 2 gb ram [13:28] lol [13:29] meh. still a waste. main reason I switched to xubuntu is this unity bs [13:32] well unity is something different but i liked it on my sisters laptop [13:32] My pc is quite capable of running 7, and likely 8 as well (especially considering its a touchscreen unit), but I'd rather not waste my resources on bs I don't need, want, or use.

[13:48] lol [13:48] then who the reason to talking about low resources use of linux? [13:54] hello good people [13:54] I'm new with xubuntu, and loving it so far [13:55] I do have a problem with the screensaver activating while watching videos [13:55] I have set it to never in settings, but still it activates after 10 minutes [13:55] any suggestions? [13:55] well [13:55] not screensaver [13:55] it turns black [13:55] power saving mode or whatever [14:00] anders__, flash video? complain to adobe [14:00] nah not flash [14:00] using the native videoplayer [14:00] mkv file [14:00] anders__, disable DPMS [14:00] whats/wheres that? :) [14:01] anders__, disable all power settings of monitor in the settings manager or use a player that does send the signal to turn it off, like smplayer or vlc [14:02] OK thx [14:02] sadly this is far too common and nobody seems to fix it already [14:02] I've tried to disable all power settings (they're all on "never"), still no luck [14:02] its kind of annyoing [14:03] I had trouble with xbmc and xscreensaver as well, but removed it and seems to be working now [14:03] anders__, be sure to change it on all the power settings, "with a/c" "whit battery" etc [14:03] ye I have [14:03] still no luck [14:03] also see of you have screensaver settings that are also going on [14:04] removed xscreensaver, so don't think I have any screensaver installed right now [14:06] i havent had this problems in a long while [14:06] mmm [14:07] i don't remember if theres any other thing to do [14:07] i would try another player thoug [14:09] installing smplayer as we speak :) [14:10] thanks for the help :) [14:12] anders__, you should also try caffeine https://launchpad.net/caffeine [14:12] "A status bar application able to temporarily prevent the activation of both the screensaver and the "sleep" powersaving mode." [14:19] the default fonts of xubuntu is droid sans?hm what about chrom os fonts?anyone have tested?its more eye candy? [14:20] i like the unbuntu mono font [14:21] mono font [14:21] hm i ll check it [14:21] and what about themes? [14:22] i want to make a bit more eye candy xubuntu without heavy stuff like compiz (although its pretty cool by default!) [14:23] You're aware XFCE has its own built-in compositor? [14:25] I'd agree about avoiding Compiz, it's fairly dead as a project [14:28] i use default greybird, but i liked mediterranean gtk too http://i.imgur.com/dEtxS07.png [14:35] GridCube: That's surprisingly nice for a dark theme [14:36] :) it is [14:39] sup bros [14:40] PLease give me link to linux distro, that will fits into 512 mb sdc, have GUI, apps and shit, and can be run under most hardware configurations [14:41] Live USB-SDC :D [14:42] denseacat_, puppy, slitaz, tinycore, DSL [14:42] in that order [14:42] so, better install puppy? [14:43] will it run in live usb persistent mode? [14:45] ask in #puppylinux [14:45] :) [14:46] hi, is there a way to position windows to the center of the screen and save the position if possible? [14:47] Well, that's a good advice for me! Thank you, GridCube. Good luck, guys. [14:47] man wmctrl [14:47] nyuszika7h, ^ [14:47] ok, thanks [14:47] also hai GridCube, didn't know you're here :P [14:47] P: i live here [14:48] why is the Alt-F2 launcher so slow at opening? [14:48] its now integrated to an app finder [14:49] well, I guess it's not too good for my Intel Pentium M 740 :P [14:49] here it takes like 2-3 seconds to open [14:49] GridCube: it takes minutes here [14:49] no, thats not good [14:50] you could add verve to the panel plugins [14:51] GridCube: thanks for the tip [14:52] the only problem is, this screen is only 1280x800 [14:52] already too little space for the application icons [14:52] even without Verve, a bit too little with many apps [14:52] maybe I could make the clock a bit shorter [15:10] nyuszika7h, the withe thingy its where my verve goes P: http://i.imgur.com/UYpQpY2.png [15:55] hi [15:55] anyone here who has experience with the logitech harmony one remote and linux? [15:55] congruity won't detect my remote [15:58] So which Ubuntu do you have? [16:02] newest xubuntu [16:05] Which version exactly? [16:12] lol I actually don't know where it says what version [16:14] in your terminal type "cat /etc/issue" that should tell you [16:14] or i think "lsb_release -a" that may work if the first doesn't [16:14] ubuntu 13.04 === Yotson_ is now known as Yotson [18:41] having issue mounting my samba share with proper permissions; ll shows the contents to be owned by root:root [18:42] Hi for all Xubuntu users ! [18:43] ntzrmtthihu777: Try something like appending -o uid=1000,gid=1000 [18:43] hello Levy [18:43] Unit193: using the fstab, any difference?

I'ts possible to mount the USB penndrive from adsl modem into a linux operating sistem like xubuntu ? I have Xubuntu 12.04 in another pc > Thanks ! [18:48] Unit193: what would you suggest, as a normal/default dir_mode? [18:50] ntzrmtthihu777: Could just drop it off, was an example I used (and maybe needed at the time.) [18:52] alrighty, seems I got it right. is there a way to delay this until after login? [18:54] Not that I know of. [18:54] Any ideea ??? [18:54] hi ! I'm have huawei HG658 adsl modem with USB. DLNA server workin ok, FTP server from usb device working ok. I'ts possible to mount the USB penndrive from adsl modem into a linux operating sistem like xubuntu ?

[19:39] Hello [19:41] hello [19:42] Helo [19:42] wh y is the desktop menu layout so crap on 12.04? [19:43] *why [19:44] <[0gb_us]> In what way is it crap in Xubuntu 12.04? [19:44] hello, I just installed Xubuntu 13.04 and I cannot get keyboard shortcuts to work. I've seen discussions on previous versions of similar issues but they don't seem to match what I am seeing. [19:44] Any one know of a way to debug this? [19:44] the bottom menu is dynamic and not fixed [19:45] theres also no start button [19:45] <[0gb_us]> Sorry, I don't know. I'm on 12.04. [19:45] Topo roll back to 12.04 cause 13.04 isnt LTS [19:45] what do you mean there's no menu button? [19:45] start button * [19:45] <[0gb_us]> Start button? Why would there be a start button? In the upper left corner is a menu button. [19:46] oh crap. I cant see it on my screen [19:46] my bad guys [19:46] <[0gb_us]> No worries. [19:46] Topographic0cean: go to Menu > Settings Manager > Keyboard > Application Shortcuts [19:47] and click on the restore defaualts button [19:48] did that [19:49] * [0gb_us] just noticed that Ubuntu's screen lock properly disables the backlight, but Xubuntu's does not [19:49] no luck [19:49] no shortcut works, even default ones [19:50] I was hoping there is some logging I can turn on to see if that uncovers the issue [19:50] ok I managed to move the menus [19:51] how do I shift the menu? right now it is being left-adjusted [19:53] Topographic0cean: perhaps this thread mgiht help you: https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?pid=29661 [19:55] seen that one but in that thread, some keyboard shortcuts work but not others. In my case, nothing works. As if some daemon is not running, but all xfce daemons seem to be running. [19:56] what kind of shortcut do you want? [19:57] well, it would be great if -t started a terminal (that is the default key binding) [19:58] why not try another shortcut like t opens terminal [20:05] because that doesn 't work. No short cut works, either defaults or modified ones. [20:05] the issue is somethng more basic but I am not sure how to debug it. === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [21:13] ISO test [21:13] scottbomb1?

HDD is first [23:05] how do i stop parole from poppuing up when I put a CD in? [23:27] hey, i'm having some trouble installing xubuntu onto my hdd [23:27] <[0gb_us]> What is the issue? [23:27] i keep getting an error at the partition stage [23:28] <[0gb_us]> What partition options are you using, and what error? [23:29] im trying to install the xubuntu on a partition i made through windows (but the error comes up for all the partitions i try), it says: no root system is defined [23:30] *the partition i made for xubuntu to go on is listed as undefined also* [23:30] <[0gb_us]> Okay, you need to install GRUB, or you need to install Xubuntu the normal way, without choosing a partition, thus making a new one and installing GRUB. [23:32] how would i go about letting xubuntu making its own partition [23:34] <[0gb_us]> Don't use the advanced option. Choose "Install Xubuntu allongside other operating systems". [23:34] alright, im going to switch to my phones irc. i was trying to let it do its own thing like that but it wouldnt let me [23:35] be back in a few [23:35] also, thanks for helping me [23:38] .
