xubuntu352 | is Xubuntu good for new Users transitioning from Windows? | 06:23 |
xubuntu352 | ie : Is it better than installing windows-like menus in Ubuntu? | 06:24 |
Unit193 | You can try it live, and see if you like it. | 06:27 |
xubuntu352 | okay thanks | 06:31 |
xubuntu352 | What disadvantages does the real-time kernel have compared to standard for desktop Users? | 06:33 |
koegs | what advantages do you expect? | 06:51 |
Unit193 | It's more helpful in audio processing/recording, generally. | 06:57 |
koegs | he is gone anyway :( | 06:57 |
Lehti | real-time sounds cool and fast, but has really nothing to it unless it's running some really specific stuff, yeah :) | 07:01 |

arsene | Hi, i can't see anything in dconf-editor...please help me ! | 09:50 |
knome | arsene, what are you trying to do? | 09:54 |
arsene | install compiz | 09:55 |
arsene | i install it but when i try to change theme in deconf is nothing there | 09:55 |
knome | note that compiz isn't officially supported with xubuntu | 09:56 |
arsene | ok, something else like compiz? | 09:57 |
arsene | for xubuntu? | 09:57 |
knome | there is the xfce compositor which can do a few things | 09:59 |
knome | but it's not really designed to give you eye candy | 09:59 |
arsene | ok,thank you | 09:59 |
emif- | guys, i have copied my updates from var/cache/apt to another computer, how to install them all together ? | 12:57 |
elfy | when I've done that an apt-get update should see them, then apt-get upgrade should upgrade with the newer packages | 13:00 |
emif- | but am not doing them from the internet | 13:00 |
gonkin | have you tried dpkg -i *.deb | 13:01 |
elfy | I understand that | 13:01 |
emif- | it says it cannot access the folder gonkin | 13:02 |
gonkin | even with sudo? | 13:04 |

markwaters | anyone else having a problem with random captialisation of characters when typing ? I have swapped out my usb keyboard and reinstalled xubuntu from scratch three times and still seeing it occassionally , most odd | 14:08 |
GridCube | nope | 14:20 |
SonikkuAmerica | Nope (I use Unity and am solely here to give support based on my Xubuntu/Ubuntu Studio experience) | 14:21 |
markwaters | ok , thatnks guys | 14:25 |
markwaters | ok , thanks guys | 14:25 |

njillings | what was the question? | 14:30 |
elfy | random capitalisation njillings | 14:31 |
njillings | sorry, never had that problem. I'm assuming keyboard issue has already been ruled out? | 14:32 |

mkbd | Hi ppl, for new desktop installations would you recommend xubuntu 12.04 lts or 13.04? | 14:45 |
SonikkuAmerica | mkbd: Are you installing Xubuntu on a production machine? If not, use 13.04 | 14:45 |
GridCube | 13.04 | 14:46 |
mkbd | SonikkuAmerica: What do you mean by production machine? Its a machine for both work and multimedia :) | 14:46 |
SonikkuAmerica | mkbd: Here's the answer (Ubuntu Forums): http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1112283 | 14:47 |
mkbd | GridCube: for any special reason besides being more recent? | 14:48 |
GridCube | mkbd, not really, all the latest xubuntu releases have been just improving themselfs, so there its no reason behind wanting to just have lts for a production machine to choose an lts release, even then the support for 13.04 will last just a little less than the remaining support for 12.04 | 14:52 |
mkbd | GridCube: Actually I thought that 12.04 would be supported for THREE years | 14:52 |
holstein | !12.04 | 14:52 |
ubottu | Xubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) is the current !LTS release of Xubuntu. Download at http://xubuntu.org/getxubuntu Release notes at http://xubuntu.org/news/12-04-release/ | 14:52 |
SonikkuAmerica | mkbd: You're right | 14:53 |

onr | latest Xubuntu-base update crashed my video card drivers | 15:11 |
onr | i can't set display resolution bigger than 1024x768 | 15:11 |
holstein | onr: i usually troubleshoot with the older kernel.. sometimes i specify a custom xorg.conf.. what about the *-base are you thinking is crashing what? you can boot another session with no issues? | 15:12 |
[uzver] | onr: try to reinstall driver or recreate xorg.conf | 15:12 |
nyRednek | ok, i have a hp psc that is connected to wifi router. i can print to it, but not scan...on another ubuntu install, i can do both | 15:16 |
nyRednek | what can i try to make this work? | 15:16 |
GridCube | nyRednek, check the model of the printer and search for scan drivers | 15:19 |
onr | holstein, [uzver]: reinstalling driver (nvidia proprietary) and recreating xorg.conf solved the problem. I didn't restart the computer after Xubuntu-base package updated, but shut down; maybe update manager supposed to do some configuration | 15:23 |
onr | thank you for help | 15:24 |
[uzver] | np) | 15:24 |
nyRednek | GridCube: apparently, wasn't a driver issue, but a URI issue | 15:39 |

Germar | Hi | 17:07 |
Germar | Where can I report a bug that regards only xubuntu but not ubuntu? | 17:07 |
pleia2 | Germar: can you be a bit more specific? (there are many packages in xubuntu that it may be filed against) | 17:09 |
Germar | It is about a timeout on dbus during import keyring in a python program running with sudo | 17:09 |
Germar | the dbus request ran into a timeout only on xubuntu but not on ubuntu | 17:10 |
pleia2 | might want to pop over to #xubuntu-devel and ask (I'm not sure) | 17:10 |
Germar | okay. I'll try there | 17:11 |
