| sketch_ | hello all... i need to know how to get libtorrents so i can use live usb install... | 04:15 |
| holstein | sketch_: live USB's install doesnt require libtorrents.. what are you trying to do? | 04:18 |
| sketch_ | ok i got a program called liveusb installer and unless i pre DL the iso i cant use it, i want to use the dropdown menu of different distros and it asks for libtorrents | 04:20 |
| holstein | sketch_: if you require the iso, you can just download it | 04:22 |
| holstein | !download | 04:22 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors - PLEASE use the !torrents to download !Raring, and help keeping the servers' load low! | 04:22 |
| holstein | you dont have to use torrents, but you can | 04:22 |
| sketch_ | its just easyer with one program... i can just pop in a fresh fat32 usb choose the distro i want and then wait... | 04:23 |
| sketch_ | unetbootin has the same feature | 04:24 |
| holstein | sure.. you choose from predownloaded isos? correct? download from above and point what you like to it | 04:24 |
| holstein | i download the iso direct, or using a torrent, and use the iso with unetbootin | 04:24 |
| sketch_ | thats the way i normally do it but i couldnt get unetbootin to work in xubuntu | 04:26 |
| sketch_ | hence why i was trying to get LiveUSB installer to work | 04:26 |
| holstein | sketch_: sudo apt-get install unetbootin should be about all it takes.. how did you install "liveUSB installer"? | 04:27 |
| sketch_ | same | 04:27 |
| holstein | sudo apt-get install liveUSB-installer ? | 04:27 |
| holstein | its in the repos? | 04:27 |
| holstein | !liveusb | 04:28 |
| ubottu | For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 04:28 |
| sketch_ | im guessin | 04:28 |
| holstein | sketch_: how is you *precisely* install it? | 04:28 |
| holstein | did you * | 04:28 |
| sketch_ | ummmm honestly i dont remember | 04:29 |
| sketch_ | http://live.learnfree.eu/download | 04:30 |
| holstein | sketch_: if you didnt get it from the default repos, then you'll need to ask whoever maintains it for support.. or, just download the ISO and point the application to it manually.. or try installing unetbootin.. | 04:31 |
| sketch_ | i just tried unetbootin again | 04:32 |
| holstein | sketch_: excellent.. if you would like to share any issues you are having with a volunteer here, you may find assistance.. otherwise, enjoy! | 04:33 |
| sketch_ | thx i got it now | 04:33 |
| holstein | sketch_: potentially handy tip.. i *always* format the sticks when making a bootable usb stick | 04:34 |
| sketch_ | so do i... | 04:35 |

| Slash0mega | is there a way to stop a live cd with persistance to stop running its initinalization scripts every time i boot? it keeps overwrigting my changes and i would like to delete the "xubuntu | 12:41 |
| Slash0mega | " user | 12:41 |
| Sysi | if you want to use xubuntu consistently from USB stick, you should do actual instalaltion to it from CD or other usb stick | 12:43 |
| Slash0mega | i was told that would ware it out. | 12:44 |
| Slash0mega | because of how many read/writes it would do | 12:45 |
| Sysi | not probable in several years | 12:45 |
| bullgard4 | Slash0mega: If you want to circumvent the wear-out please install Xubuntu on a hard disk. | 12:46 |
| Slash0mega | oh, i was under the impression it would only be usable for half a year or somthing. thank you very much :D | 12:46 |
| Sysi | I haven't done that myself, but I've never seen USB stick dying from too much usage | 12:47 |
| Slash0mega | ill look into it | 12:49 |
| Slash0mega | ok, i am really paranoid about installing xubuntu strait to my flash drive at this point, so i think ill just poke around the scripts folder for now... | 13:28 |
| cfhowlett | Slash0mega, you're dual booting? consider virtualbox | 13:29 |
| Slash0mega | i am not duel booting, i am without a hardrive at the moment, i am using a live cd with persistance | 13:35 |
| Slash0mega | on a flash stick | 13:35 |
| Slash0mega | i asked about disabling the initinalization scripts of the live cd because it kept overwriting my changes, reseting the desktop to default and all that, and someone recomened i install strait to the usbdrive | 13:36 |
| Slash0mega | but i am worried about waring it down if i do that | 13:36 |
| cfhowlett | Slash0mega, usb's are cheap ... | 13:37 |
| Slash0mega | i guess so, but i would rather not have to replace it often | 13:40 |
| cfhowlett | Slash0mega, "often" ... time to get a hard drive maybe? | 13:42 |
| Slash0mega | i know i need to get one. :/ | 13:44 |
| cfhowlett | Slash0mega, sooner rather than later. I'd say go with the usb install and expect it to fail. Back essential documents to cloud storage ... ubuntu one or dropbox. | 13:45 |
| Slash0mega | i hope i can get the new hd on the 3rd comming up, but for now, i think ill keep using persistance and live with the limited costomization... | 13:48 |
| Slash0mega | wait, can i set up a script that will log out of a defalt user and log into another? | 13:49 |

| xubuntu498 | I am new to xubuntu. I replaced my slow window xp with raring ringtail. I like the improvement. Just a few things though ... there is a learning curve ... I am not a programmer, and find xubuntu a little difficult to figure out. Any recommendations as to where to start with learning ? Also, I cannot attach my Brother printer, as there is no recognized driver. I did find the driver at the Brother website, but now what ? How d | 15:07 |
| SonikkuAmerica | What's your Brother printer? | 15:07 |
| xubuntu498 | Brother MFC-J415W | 15:08 |
| SonikkuAmerica | 64-bit machine? | 15:10 |
| xubuntu498 | No, I believe a 32-bit machine. How can I determine that info ? (told you I was a rookie !) | 15:11 |
| SonikkuAmerica | [ uname -a ] in terminal ... look for "i386," "x86_64" or "amd64" | 15:12 |
| SonikkuAmerica | xubuntu498: I have to go... but check this link out: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1653321 | 15:14 |
| xubuntu498 | thank you ! | 15:16 |
| Ingenuity | Hello all. | 15:56 |
| nagev | Hello! | 15:56 |
| Ingenuity | Does anyone know if the new Xubuntu has EFI support? | 15:57 |
| holstein | !uefi | Ingenuity is this what you are looking for? | 15:58 |
| ubottu | Ingenuity is this what you are looking for?: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 15:58 |
| Unit193 | 64bit does, 32 doesn't. | 15:58 |
| Ingenuity | Thanks,ubottu! That's my answer. | 15:59 |
| bekks | !bot | Ingenuity | 16:01 |
| ubottu | Ingenuity: Hi! I'm #xubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi | Usage info: http://ubottu.com/devel/wiki/Plugins | Bot channels and general info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots | 16:01 |
| holstein | a better question might be, does EFI support xubuntu.. or is ubuntu allowed to support EFI when the machine is forced to use it | 16:01 |
| xubuntu994 | c'è qualche italiano? | 18:00 |
| Unit193 | !it | 18:00 |
| ubottu | Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (per entrare, scrivi « /join #ubuntu-it » senza virgolette) | 18:00 |
| th3pr0ph3t | :O | 18:01 |
| th3pr0ph3t | !es | 18:01 |
| 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. | 18:01 |
| dsan | I have AMD E2-3200 APU graphic card and having trouble with ubuntu's unity. could anyone tell me if I need xubuntu-desktop or lubuntu-desktop to get a better GUI performance? | 19:16 |
| th3pr0ph3t | dsan, what I know is that xfce as in xubuntu is way faster than unity, I don't have problems with my amd cards ever | 19:48 |
| haljhon | I would think that you should start by analyzing the performance of your graphics card separate from any GUI effects | 19:58 |
| haljhon | maybe start by checking your performance with something like glxgears to see how many fps you're turning... | 19:59 |
| haljhon | also seeing what driver is being used and determining if there's a better driver or modifications that should be made to improve performance. | 19:59 |
| xubuntu216 | Newbie here. How do I install the driver for a Brother mfc-w415j printer ? Xubuntu isn't picking it up. How do I use the terminal commands ? | 20:51 |
| holstein | xubuntu216: what terminal commands in particular? | 20:53 |
| xubuntu216 | Thanks for your help. Once at the brother website, I found the driver install. Now what ? Download to a file ? | 20:54 |
| holstein | xqif you get a driver that is not maintained by ubuntu, the vendor is responsible for suppporting it.. and letting you know how to use it.. though, if you find a readme or directions, i dont mind taking a look | 20:55 |
| xubuntu308 | xubuntu? | 21:41 |
| th3pr0ph3t | hi, how can I contact the developers of gmusicbrowser? ... it's the shimmer project? (http://shimmerproject.org/) | 21:58 |
| th3pr0ph3t | I'd like to help with the translation | 21:59 |
| th3pr0ph3t | nevermind, found it at http://gmusicbrowser.org/translations.html | 22:03 |
| haljhon | ;) | 22:06 |
