[01:44] <VicariousToast> Hi, could someone please tell me how to uninstall Xubuntu? I want to do a complete reinstallation of Xubuntu and Windows XP.
[01:45] <cfhowlett> VicariousToast, dual booting or wubi?
[01:45] <VicariousToast> Dual Booting
[01:46] <cfhowlett> VicariousToast, best way is not reinstall XP (!) then do ubuntu.  Format the whole disk in windows and get that done then do the buntu
[01:49] <VicariousToast> I'm not sure I understand. I guess reinstalling Windows XP was the wrong phrase, I will be using the recovery disc that came with the laptop. So do I boot from that and let it wipe the hard drive? In other words, I simply have to let the recovery disc wipe the hard drive, correct?
[01:50] <cfhowlett> VicariousToast, yes.  you are aware that XP will finally reach end of life quite soon?
[01:51] <VicariousToast> Yeah, I will be getting a newer computer sometime within the next year or so. I just have to save up the money first.
[01:51] <VicariousToast> Also, thank you for the help :D
[01:51] <cfhowlett> VicariousToast, I'm guessing that you're running and older system?  you might find that lubuntu or xubuntu give you more pep in your step than ubuntu does.
[01:52] <VicariousToast> Yeah, it's a Toshiba Satellite M45-S331. It's gotta be at least 9 years old now. I got it for $50 though, so for the price I think it was a pretty decent deal.
[01:53] <cfhowlett> VicariousToast, agreed.  and take a good look at xubuntu and lubuntu.  They're optimized for older/lower specification machines such as yours.  Ubuntu is not.
[01:53] <VicariousToast> Oh, and I meant to say Xubuntu earlier, not Ubuntu. Xubuntu is what I am currently using.
[01:53] <cfhowlett> VicariousToast, nice.  I suggest you go with the LTS release ... 12.04
[01:54] <VicariousToast> Yeah, I think that's the version I have on a CD-R Disc
[01:54] <cfhowlett> VicariousToast, verrrry nice.  have fun.
[01:55] <VicariousToast> Thanks again :)
[01:55] <cfhowlett> VicariousToast, have fun and be safe.
[02:03] <BoF> anyone can help me for install a proxy on my xubuntu?
[02:04] <BoF> please!
[02:04] <Unit193> I've used polipo with tor, but there are other options too like squid, privoxy (not the right name, close), etc.
[02:05] <Unit193> !squid
[02:05] <ubottu> squid is a caching proxy for the Web.  See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SquidGuard  See: http://www.squid-cache.org
[02:06] <BoF> and a proxy for all application not just the navigator
[02:06] <BoF> browser!
[02:12] <BoF> how can i install squid in console?
[05:13] <bibi_> To create a linux live dvd just burning the iso files to disk is enough right?
[05:13] <bibi_> or do I have to do more?
[05:14] <BoF> yep its all
[05:14] <bibi_> ok thanks
[05:14] <bibi_> no need to install bootloader like in USB's\
[05:14] <BoF> ur welcome
[05:14] <BoF> no just burn dvd like an image dvd

[14:34] <braulio> Hello guys, I use Xubuntu 13.04 and I'm trying to configure on my international keyboard the ABNT keyboard. I read a tutorial that said that I should edit the file "~/.bashrc" and add to the last line "setxkbmap -model pc104 -layout us_intl". Which worked great. The only thing that I notice is that everytime I reboot the system it goes back to the ABNT for a Portuguese keyboard (not international), and I have to open the terminal and close it in order to
[14:34] <braulio> make it work again (I don't even have to do anything, just open and close). Is there any way to "fix" this?
[14:41] <knome> braulio, did you try using the languages tool in settings manager to change the layout?
[14:52] <braulio> knome: Hey man, I tried a different model of keyboard here. Rebooted and now it seems to work just fine. thanks.
[14:53] <knome> okay
[14:53] <knome> have fun
[14:55] <braulio> also, why everytime I start the computer Xubuntu asks me for a password to unlock some "default" thing?
[15:38] <SunStar> that could be the screen saver. try disabling it in launcher -> settings -> settings manager -> session and start up
[16:42] <no_esc> Hi I question about xmodmap in xubuntu

[16:53] <no_esc> Thanks, I tried to swao the esc and caps_lock key and it works but when i try to do it at startup it doesn't work. I have googled endlessly and non of the solutions seem to work.

[19:04] <livingdaylight> hi
[19:04] <livingdaylight> My system has been crashing unexplainably of late
=== azeam_afk is now known as azeam
[19:04] <livingdaylight> is there a way of identifying how/why?
[19:05] <Pres-Gas> livingdaylight, I would start in /var/log/syslog first
[19:05] <livingdaylight> I suddenly find myself at the login page having to re-enter password and all applications are closed except it will launch virtualbox regardless of whether it was previously open or not
=== azeam is now known as azeam_afk
[19:12] <livingdaylight> Pres-Gas, what do I look for there?
[19:13] <knome> livingdaylight, might be something in your session... just in case, remove ~/.cache
[19:14] <Pres-Gas> I'd follow knome's advice first
[19:16] <livingdaylight> knome, thx
[19:16] <livingdaylight> so, go into ~/.cache and remove everything?
[19:17] <livingdaylight> lets see
[19:18] <knome> livingdaylight, you can just remove the whole directory
[19:18] <livingdaylight> knome, are you suggesting removing all of this? http://clip2net.com/s/5sahQH
[19:18] <knome> livingdaylight, if that doesn't help, the next thing i'd look is sessions and startup under the settings manager
[19:18] <knome> yes, it's cache - so just temporary files
[19:19] <livingdaylight> i see, ok.

[21:05] <knome> xubuntu015, have you tried to ask the spanish community at #ubuntu-es ?
[21:05] <xubuntu015> no
[21:05] <bgardner> xubuntu015: Please try that first, tech support is much easier in your native language.
[21:06] <knome> xubuntu015, maybe that would be easier... type "/join #ubuntu-es" (without the quotes) to join the spanish channel
[21:06] <xubuntu015> ii am thinking
[21:08] <xubuntu015> Do you think that is necesary to reset firefox in the theterminal. itś ok ?
[21:08] <knome> xubuntu015, running firefox from the terminal might give you additional information
