| xubuntu064 | alguien habla español | 03:02 |
| xubuntu064 | se puede intalar en xubuntu 13 compiz ?todo los efectos para el escritorio | 03:04 |
| Unit193 | !es | 03:05 |
| ubottu | En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #xubuntu-es; escriba "/join #xubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y presione intro. Si nadie responde, puedes intentar preguntando en #ubuntu-es. | 03:05 |
| SonikkuAmerica | xubuntu064: Tendrías más suerte in #ubuntu-es | 03:06 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Unit193: I think the only ones in #xubuntu-es are you and TheDrums and occasionally me | 03:07 |
| SonikkuAmerica | And m4v | 03:07 |
| Unit193 | You're point is...? | 03:07 |
| Unit193 | Should read the last bit of the factoid. | 03:07 |
| SonikkuAmerica | True enough. | 03:08 |
| Jdgtrnub | So I just installed a package called "Disks" using the software center. But I cannot find it anywhere in the search tool or in terminal, how do I run this? | 04:04 |
| Jdgtrnub | It also shows up as an installed app on the software center. | 04:05 |
| holstein | Jdgtrnub: what are you trying to do? | 04:05 |
| holstein | !info disks | 04:05 |
| ubottu | Package disks does not exist in raring | 04:05 |
| Jdgtrnub | I'm trying to make a partition on my drive. | 04:06 |
| holstein | Jdgtrnub: i would use gparted from a live CD | 04:06 |
| Jdgtrnub | What do you mean? | 04:07 |
| bsk | it's gnome-disk-utility | 04:07 |
| Jdgtrnub | Yes gnome-disk-utility is what I'm trying to run. | 04:07 |
| bsk | Settings Manager > Disks | 04:07 |
| holstein | i would use gparted from a live CD instead... depends on what you are doing | 04:08 |
| Jdgtrnub | Thanks bsk that was it. | 04:08 |
| bsk | I agree with holstein.. GParted is the best way for playing with partitions | 04:08 |
| bsk | Jdgtrnub: you're welcome :) | 04:08 |
| Jdgtrnub | I have another question, why doesn't it show my 2nd hard drive? | 04:09 |
| Jdgtrnub | I just had Xubunto installed on it yesterday(From windows) And the 2nd hard drive was there. (Have done any changes to my system) | 04:09 |
| holstein | Jdgtrnub: it? the gnome-disk-utility? do you see the drive anywhere? you can try in a terminal "sudo fdisk -l" | 04:10 |
| Jdgtrnub | But now that I have installed Xubuntu straight from a DVD rom, now it doesn't show. | 04:10 |
| Jdgtrnub | It doesn't show up in the list | 04:10 |
| holstein | Jdgtrnub: what doesnt show up in what list? | 04:11 |
| Jdgtrnub | using fdisk -l | 04:11 |
| Jdgtrnub | My 2nd hard drive. | 04:11 |
| holstein | Jdgtrnub: then, the drive is either bad, or the computer isnt seeing it.. on a hardware level | 04:11 |
| holstein | Jdgtrnub: i would double check the cables and the bios.. coul be driver support for something, i suppose, but i doubt it | 04:12 |
| Jdgtrnub | I'll do some tests, so there's nothing that I would need to have set for it to be detected? | 04:12 |
| holstein | Jdgtrnub: sure.. the bios.. and the hardware will need to be configured correctly | 04:12 |
| Jdgtrnub | I mean in Linux specifically. | 04:13 |
| holstein | Jdgtrnub: nothing in xubntu is preventing fdisk from showing what drives are connected.. except driver support.. if you think that can be an issue | 04:13 |
| Jdgtrnub | Okay thanks. | 04:13 |
| holstein | Jdgtrnub: if xubuntu *was* seeing it.. then use that *same* xubuntu version live and see if its there | 04:13 |
| holstein | sounds like a failing hard drive to me | 04:14 |
| Jdgtrnub | It's only a 2 month old flash drive, so I think the drive is okay. | 04:14 |
| holstein | Jdgtrnub: dont think.. test.. *all* drives fail | 04:14 |
| Jdgtrnub | I know haha :P | 04:15 |
| xubuntu054 | Is it possible to boot up a root.disk file? Which is an old install of xubuntu. | 04:23 |
| well_laid_lawn | xubuntu054: what does file /path/to/root.disk return ? | 04:26 |
| well_laid_lawn | if it's an iso you can mount it | 04:27 |
| xubuntu054 | Just found out that it is because I used Wubi to install ubunto, it created the file to boot linux with. | 04:28 |
| xubuntu054 | Path is /media/jeff/E/ubuntu/disks/root.disk | 04:29 |
| well_laid_lawn | see if this is still valid - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1037874 | 04:29 |

| Satsu | hi | 05:21 |
| Satsu | can anyone help me? | 05:22 |
| elfy | !ask | Satsu | 05:23 |
| ubottu | Satsu: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 05:23 |
| Satsu | Sorry guys | 05:26 |
| Satsu | i thought u were all seeing this constantly | 05:26 |
| Satsu | anyway, im a first time user and cant seem to be able to compile tgz file | 05:26 |
| Satsu | i tried some tutotials but it wasnt much help | 05:27 |
| Satsu | im using xubunto 13.04 | 05:27 |
| elfy | not often I need to compile anything - so the first thing you need to do is see if you actually need to, if you do then I use https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware | 05:33 |
| elfy | effectively you need to extract/configure/make/install | 05:34 |
| Satsu | thank you very much | 05:43 |
| Unit193 | build-essential, but what are you compiling? | 05:44 |

| ubottu | xubuntu117: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 07:47 |

| dicedingus | Okay, I'm trying to rig up my xubuntu box so I can log into it remotely, but as far as I can tell, things like VNC require me to already be logged in. Is there any way I can connect remotely and be prompted with a sign-in screen? | 10:36 |

| Guest81969 | knome, are you there ? | 13:39 |
| well_laid_lawn | install what ? | 13:41 |
| mrapsilva | Hello! | 13:41 |
| cfhowlett | mrapsilva, greetings | 13:42 |
| mrapsilva | (: | 13:42 |
| mrapsilva | im a bit of a noob in xubuntu so i came here | 13:42 |
| Guest81969 | xubuntu | 13:42 |
| Guest81969 | well_laid_lawn | 13:42 |
| mrapsilva | cuz i think ive messed with my install of it xD | 13:42 |
| mrapsilva | so, my question is: when xubuntu is booting, 2 secs after the loading screen, everything goes black, only with the white underscore blinking | 13:43 |
| well_laid_lawn | Guest81969: you don't use fat32 when installing linux | 13:43 |
| well_laid_lawn | use ext4 | 13:43 |
| well_laid_lawn | you should use the installer to partition' | 13:44 |
| Guest81969 | the installer does not allow me to partition on an hp dv6 | 13:44 |
| Guest81969 | so i used windows to create the unallocated partition of 20 gb | 13:44 |
| Guest81969 | by shrinking c drive | 13:45 |
| cfhowlett | Guest81969, the ubuntu installer wouldn't partition? | 13:45 |
| Guest81969 | no | 13:45 |
| Guest81969 | which is strange | 13:45 |
| Guest81969 | it would not allow me the oopion to install xubuntu side by side | 13:45 |
| Guest81969 | i had to select do something else | 13:45 |
| Guest81969 | option | 13:45 |
| cfhowlett | Guest81969, strange indeed ... not normal behavior at all | 13:45 |
| * Guest81969 nods | 13:46 | |
| Guest81969 | on my other system it was fine | 13:46 |
| Guest81969 | i think its an issue with hp | 13:47 |

| Guest18989 | Hello, I am in the process of downloading Xubuntu 12.04. I am currently downloading the 32bit version, is there an intel 64-bit version available? | 14:39 |
| cfhowlett | Guest18989, yes | 14:39 |
| Guest18989 | On the "Get Xubuntu" page the 64bit version was for AMD processors | 14:40 |
| cfhowlett | Guest18989, torrents are preferable and safer than direct download | 14:40 |
| Sysi | amd64 works on intel processors too | 14:40 |
| cfhowlett | http://xubuntu.org/getxubuntu/ | 14:40 |
| Sysi | (strongly doubting you have ia64) | 14:40 |
| Guest18989 | Ahh thank you for the help. | 14:41 |
| Guest18989 | Being new to Linix and don't know eactly how to use a torrent I am not sure using a torrent will be advisable for me. | 14:41 |
| cfhowlett | Guest18989, quite easy. install bit torrent. load the xubuntu seed ... wait for downloads to complete and presto ... | 14:42 |
| Guest18989 | cfhowlett, thank you for the help. | 14:44 |
| Guest18989 | Sysi, you are correct I am running an Intel 3930K Sandy Bridge processor. It is a desktop process and mother board and not a server grade processor. | 14:45 |
| cfhowlett | Guest18989, best of luck | 14:45 |
| Guest18989 | Thanks for the help! | 14:45 |
| tAnKe | Good day, I have a Xubuntu server that has failed the /home disk, I have changed the disk and tried to format and put ext3 on it but I can't, there's seems to be a problem with the x interface since I just get an error, i have also tried fdisk with no results, I'm not skilled on Linux and I want to know if someone have come with an error like this. | 16:00 |
| tAnKe | Also if there's a iso file that is for server edition, i can't find it on the web page | 16:01 |
| tAnKe | oh and in advance, sorry for the bad english | 16:01 |
| xubuntu840 | Ima noob to linux, whats the latest Xubuntu OS version I could use on a ppc? | 19:08 |
| Unit193 | Xubuntu doesn't currently support PPC, not enough testers for it. | 19:09 |
| === brainwash_ is now known as brainwash | ||
| xubuntu840 | I see that, but I'm sure it was supported in the past, and If I want to scour the underbelly of the internet for an old Xubuntu version, which should I look for? | 19:11 |
| xubuntu840 | A late, but stable version. | 19:11 |
| bazhang | which one | 19:11 |
| Unit193 | xubuntu840: Lubuntu has current builds for PPC... | 19:13 |
| Unit193 | Otherwise, there may be a mini.iso for PPC and you can see how well it goes? | 19:14 |
| genii | !ppc | 19:14 |
| ubottu | PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ | 19:14 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Use the mini.iso and install xubuntu-desktop with it maybe? | 19:14 |
| * Unit193 hears an echo. | 19:14 | |
| xubuntu840 | Ill look into Lubuntu, thans | 19:15 |
| SonikkuAmerica | "You? Is there an echo in here? Yes, ME!" :) | 19:15 |
| === juk is now known as blafp | ||
| blafp | hello | 19:26 |
| blafp | I get a blank screen when I start up xubuntu | 19:26 |
| blafp | like black | 19:26 |
| blafp | I think it's because I installed the fglrx? drivers | 19:27 |
| blafp | yeah flgrx | 19:27 |
| SonikkuAmerica | blafp: use nomodeset to boot for the time being. | 19:27 |
| blafp | nomodeset? | 19:28 |
| SonikkuAmerica | !nomodeset | 19:28 |
| ubottu | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 19:28 |
| brainwash | does fglrx care about nomodeset? | 19:28 |
| SonikkuAmerica | It'll ignore it. | 19:28 |
| Sysi | it doesn't support modesetting AFAIK | 19:29 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Yeah... it'll be ignored :S | 19:29 |
| blafp | ok thanks | 19:30 |

| peyam | Hi | 21:15 |
| Noskcaj | has anyone else noticed that the install updates button doesn't work with kernal updates | 21:21 |
| Sysi | what if you run it from the menu | 21:22 |
| Noskcaj | Sysi, works fine. it's only when you do from the indicator | 21:23 |
| Sysi | IIRC when you run from the applet it doesn't ask for authentication? | 21:24 |
| * wiredfool_ is trying to install using the 13.04 installer onto an eeepc 901 ssd. It's frustrating as hell | 21:33 | |
| wiredfool_ | It's a split ssd, /dev/sda is 4 gigs, /dev/sdb is 8 | 21:34 |
| wiredfool_ | I want an encrypted filesystem. If I do it automatically, I get a 1.7 g /, 2 gigs of swap, and a 300mb boot partition. | 21:34 |
| Sysi | encrypted LVM maybe, /boot and swap to small ssd | 21:35 |
| wiredfool_ | right. I'm trying this with the installer. It's... painful. | 21:36 |
| wiredfool_ | between swap turning itself back on, thus invalidating the 'use as physical encrypted disk' | 21:36 |
| wiredfool_ | and various mappings of the encrypted drives fighting each other | 21:37 |
| wiredfool_ | incidentally, the small ssd is the faster, more robust one. The bigger one is slower | 21:40 |
| wiredfool_ | I think it's an slc/mlc thing | 21:41 |
| wiredfool_ | I don't see how to make an lvm volume from the installer, only a single encrypted ext4 partition, or various filesytem partitions | 21:52 |
| wiredfool_ | either that, or I could just live without swap. in theory | 21:52 |
| wiredfool_ | Ok. I've tried swapoff. I've removed the swap line from /et/fstab. I've changed the partition type to 83. I've reread the partiton map. How do I keep swap off? | 22:01 |
| wiredfool_ | apparently deleting the partition is enough. | 22:11 |
| === lderan_ is now known as lderan | ||
| wiredfool_ | Ok. I've got a /dev/mapper/sda5_crypt, created by the installer on / that works at startup, and a /dev/mapper/luks-[uuid] that doesn't. | 22:40 |
| wiredfool_ | the luks one is an ext4 filesystem for /home | 22:40 |
| wiredfool_ | So. What should I do to the /home partition to get it to mount at startup? | 22:45 |
