| maxm11 | Did anyone notice on the install screen, the page titled The Xubuntu Desktop, Number 2 the last sentence says "to save screen estate", is my OCD or is it supposed to be real esate | 01:46 |
| seronis | yes and no | 02:09 |
| seronis | the 'real' is meant to imply tangible, like property or land. so more accurate to leave it out | 02:09 |
| dooglus | hi | 07:47 |
| dooglus | I run xubuntu, and use gnome-sound-applet for a volume control | 07:47 |
| dooglus | when I right-click it and pick 'properties' I used to get sound settings, but now I get the gnome control panel with most of the icons missing | 07:48 |
| dooglus | I think it's because XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP is set to XFCE, and most of the settings have something like 'only show in GNOME' in their .desktop files | 07:48 |
| well_laid_lawn | does xfce's sound applet not work for you? | 07:49 |
| dooglus | so how can I get the right-click on the panel applet to work? | 07:49 |
| dooglus | not well, i don't think. didn't try it for a few years though | 07:49 |
| dooglus | i'll ry it now | 07:50 |
| dooglus | is it called 'audio mixer' in the 'add new items' dialog? | 07:50 |
| dooglus | it doesn't have per-application volume controls like the gnome one does | 07:52 |
| dooglus | running: | 07:52 |
| dooglus | XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME gnome-control-center | 07:52 |
| dooglus | from the command line gets me what I want - but I can't figure out how to have that environment variable in my session | 07:53 |
| dooglus | I tried setting it in .xprofile, but something overwrites it after | 07:53 |
| well_laid_lawn | xfce will afaik | 07:53 |
| dooglus | what's annoying is I fixed this issue on my old computer, but forgot how | 07:58 |
| well_laid_lawn | might be time to start a blog and record these things | 08:00 |
| well_laid_lawn | ;) | 08:00 |

| photon | no 4.8 versions yet :( | 08:27 |
| Aiena | i think you can get it via a ppa | 08:27 |
| Aiena | not sure | 08:27 |
| photon | will try that, thanks | 08:27 |
| Aiena | if anything goes wrong | 08:29 |
| Aiena | there is always ppa-purge | 08:29 |
| Aiena | the saviour of the day :P | 08:29 |
| Aiena | its better to do that than just remove a ppa which is quiet useless | 08:30 |
| Aiena | photon: do you really need 4.8 though | 08:31 |
| photon | I need the latest support for the C++11 standard, and 4.8 includes support for thread local variables, I think no earlier gcc versions have that. | 08:32 |
| Aiena | photon but maybe 4.8 is available as an update in stock raring too | 08:32 |
| Aiena | I havent booted into raring yet. Still using the stable old 12.04 | 08:33 |
| Aiena | photon are you using raring - see if its available as an update | 08:33 |
| photon | not using raring, but will install it later. :) thank you. | 08:34 |
| Aiena | photon: it is available for raring as an update | 08:34 |
| Aiena | http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ubuntu.devel.changes.raring/8205 | 08:34 |
| Aiena | you should update to that distro if you want the latest maybe on a seperate partition | 08:34 |
| photon | yeah or in a VM. | 08:35 |
| Aiena | either way | 08:35 |
| Aiena | youll be able to build with the latest gcc then | 08:35 |
| Aiena | I think | 08:35 |
| Aiena | never tried building in a vm | 08:35 |
| Aiena | anyways give it a shot | 08:38 |
| Aiena | tell me what happens. I am interested. | 08:38 |
| Aiena | photon: | 08:38 |
| photon | Aiena: will do, thanks :) | 08:39 |
| Aiena | :) | 08:39 |
| Aiena | otherwise use fedora but thats a whole other story - dont want to go there | 08:40 |
| Aiena | photon do you know how to make an application always run as root and ask for a password | 08:57 |
| Aiena | similar to run as administrator in windows | 08:57 |
| photon | Aiena: you mean `sudo`? | 08:58 |
| Aiena | yes but automatically | 08:58 |
| Aiena | like when you open synaptics | 08:59 |
| Aiena | it automatically request super user prviledges | 08:59 |
| Aiena | i know you xna run sudo program from terminal | 08:59 |
| Aiena | but i was asking if an apllication can be made to automatically request su priviledges on startup form the menu foe example | 09:00 |
| Aiena | *can | 09:00 |
| Aiena | *sudo "program" | 09:00 |
| Aiena | *application | 09:00 |
| photon | I don't know how to do that. maybe you could write a script? | 09:00 |
| koegs | Aiena: use a script or change the entry in the menu to use "gksudo <program>" | 09:01 |
| Aiena | koegs how do you do that ? | 09:02 |
| Aiena | I was looking for that only | 09:02 |
| Aiena | How do you edit the menu | 09:02 |
| Aiena | can you give me a good resource koegs on that | 09:03 |
| koegs | Aiena: right click on the button, properties, edit menu? | 09:04 |
| koegs | "menu button" | 09:04 |
| Aiena | right clicking executes the app | 09:04 |
| Aiena | ah found it | 09:05 |
| koegs | right click on the menu-button, not the "app-button" | 09:05 |
| Aiena | thanks | 09:05 |
| * Aiena nods | 09:05 | |
| koegs | out of curiosity, which programm do you want to use as root? | 09:05 |
| Aiena | calibre | 09:06 |
| Aiena | it seems to not convert ebooks otherwise | 09:06 |
| Aiena | the epub converter fails | 09:07 |
| Aiena | it apparently needs to write a .config file | 09:07 |
| Aiena | for conversion | 09:07 |
| Aiena | root is not something i generally want to fool with anyways | 09:07 |
| Aiena | most apps dont need root priviledges callibre is an oddball :P | 09:10 |
| well_laid_lawn | I'd think it would be easier to run it with gksu from a terminal | 09:11 |
| Aiena | koegs: is sudo for a graphical application different from gksudo for a graphival application in terminal ? | 09:13 |
| Aiena | *graphical | 09:13 |
| well_laid_lawn | !gksu | 09:13 |
| ubottu | If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 09:13 |
| Aiena | bye thanks all | 09:41 |
| xubuntu469 | videos are washed out like in 256 colors... need some help kinda new to this. | 10:55 |

| Sysi | you can add panel applets that show those or use conky | 19:38 |
| Sysi | you can install panel plugin for network and disk usage too | 19:39 |
| Mortvert | well, conky is PITA to configure, i tried few configs, none work properly | 19:39 |
| Mortvert | And i have very limited amount of panel space | 19:39 |

| xubuntu636 | Hey- anybody home? | 21:25 |
| ochosi | !hi | xubuntu636 | 21:25 |
| ubottu | xubuntu636: 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! | 21:25 |
| xubuntu636 | Fantastic | 21:25 |
| xubuntu636 | I do have a really silly question | 21:26 |
| xubuntu636 | I burned xubuntu as an iso | 21:26 |
| xubuntu636 | And I'm trying to boot from it- but even with the boot order as disc first | 21:26 |
| xubuntu636 | My machine is still kicking to it's windows installation | 21:26 |
| ochosi | and i assume that the disc-burning went without (obvious) complications? | 21:27 |
| Unit193 | How new is the computer? There should be a single time boot menu you can try to force it, have you tried that as well? Have you checked to see if you can boot the disk on another computer? | 21:28 |
| xubuntu636 | Right the burning process went really smoothly | 21:28 |
| xubuntu636 | The computer is maybe 8 years old? | 21:28 |
| xubuntu636 | It's a pentium d gateway, so it's not exactly "new"... | 21:29 |
| xubuntu636 | I have tried the boot menu | 21:30 |
| xubuntu636 | It's still rolling over to the windows xp | 21:30 |
| goddard | nevermind i fiugred out you can use ctrl+shift+t | 21:32 |
| goddard | and you can do that up to 10 times | 21:32 |
| xubuntu636 | I'll try another machine with the disc I suppose | 21:38 |
| xubuntu636 | Thanks all! | 21:38 |
| mike-linux | ok, i need some serious help, as i cannot boot into Xubuntu anymore. it stops during startup and does not do anything anymore.. for some reason it cannot proceed. | 22:07 |
| mike-linux | when pressing ctrl-alt-del it says exiting: acpid and then it reboots | 22:07 |
| mike-linux | what to do now? | 22:07 |
| mike-linux | right now i am in windows, so hardware seems ok | 22:08 |
| mike-linux | but i did not do updates what so ever. it just happened | 22:08 |
