| pajamieez | Hey guys! | 00:25 |
|---|---|---|
| pajamieez | Anyone home? | 00:25 |
| pajamieez | I was wondering if anyone could help me out with a wireless issue? | 00:26 |
| GridCube | !anyone | 00:30 |
| ubottu | A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 00:30 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | "Does anyone really know what time it is?" - Chicago | 00:33 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | Just throwing it out there | 00:33 |
| pajamieez | Does anyone have experience getting a latitude d600 wireless nic card to be recognized by xubuntu? | 00:52 |
| pajamieez | I'm having trouble getting it recognized | 00:52 |
| pajamieez | by the operating system >< | 00:52 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | do you know the wifi chip of the card? | 00:53 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | wouldn't surprised me if it was broadcom but, let's find out first. | 00:53 |
| pajamieez | on the card itself it says its BCM94309MP | 00:53 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | are you on the laptop, and the card is installed? | 00:54 |
| pajamieez | Yeah I'm on the laptop right now | 00:54 |
| pajamieez | I did an apt-get for firmware-b43 | 00:55 |
| pajamieez | it went through but it's not showing up in wiconfig | 00:55 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | in terminal type lspci | grep Ethernet | 00:55 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | paste me the results in paste.ubuntu.com | 00:55 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | is that the firmware-b43-installer? | 00:56 |
| pajamieez | yeah | 00:56 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | did you modeprobe in term after install? | 00:56 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | modprobe b43? | 00:56 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | I think that's right | 00:56 |
| pajamieez | hmm I don't think so | 00:56 |
| pajamieez | let me try | 00:57 |
| pajamieez | I don't think anything's happening | 00:57 |
| pajamieez | no results are popping up | 00:57 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | oh, don't forget to sudo | 00:58 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | sudo modprobe b43 | 00:58 |
| pajamieez | i did | 00:58 |
| pajamieez | it's just sitting there | 00:58 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | did you check the network mamanger? | 00:58 |
| pajamieez | it shows my wired network | 00:59 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | Oh, you naver pasted me the output for lspci | 00:59 |
| pajamieez | but not wireless | 00:59 |
| pajamieez | pajamieez@Scrivner:/etc/modprobe.d$ lspci | grep Ethernet | 00:59 |
| pajamieez | 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5705M Gigabit Ethernet (rev 01) | 00:59 |
| pajamieez | that's it | 00:59 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | oh, your wifi doesn't even show up | 01:00 |
| pajamieez | yeah | 01:00 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | try: lspci | grep Broadcom | 01:01 |
| pajamieez | how do I make the modprobe stop again? | 01:01 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | if it doesn't show up then, the system isn't even seeing it. | 01:01 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | it stops on it's own | 01:01 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | if you want to unload it, it's modprobe -r b43 | 01:01 |
| pajamieez | pajamieez@Scrivner:~$ lspci | grep Broadcom | 01:02 |
| pajamieez | 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5705M Gigabit Ethernet (rev 01) | 01:02 |
| pajamieez | 02:03.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11a/b/g (rev 03) | 01:02 |
| pajamieez | pajamieez@Scrivner:~$ | 01:02 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | Ah! | 01:02 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | There it is | 01:02 |
| pajamieez | That's gotta be good | 01:02 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | as a hail mary, I would restart, just to see if it tries to connect to something at login. | 01:02 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | Then we can investigate further | 01:03 |
| pajamieez | it hangs when I modprob though | 01:03 |
| pajamieez | is that good? | 01:03 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | hangs how? | 01:03 |
| pajamieez | like I can't enter another command | 01:03 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | oh, weird | 01:04 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | did you ctrl+c it? | 01:04 |
| pajamieez | and I have to close the terminal window and open a new one | 01:04 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | Ah. | 01:04 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | Hmm... | 01:04 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | I would restart. | 01:04 |
| pajamieez | okay brb | 01:04 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | if the system doesn't load it, at that point, we'll look into it harder | 01:04 |
| pajamieez | I have returned | 01:07 |
| pajamieez | nada -_- | 01:07 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | might have found something. In the software manager, can you find firmware-b43legacy-installer | 01:08 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | If it's a thing, uninstall the firmware-b43-installer and try the legacy driver. | 01:08 |
| pajamieez | is that the same as software center? | 01:10 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | yeah | 01:10 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | sorry. so many distros, so many names. :) | 01:10 |
| pajamieez | I know | 01:11 |
| pajamieez | hmmm | 01:12 |
| pajamieez | I don't see it under installed | 01:12 |
| pajamieez | should I look through "All Software" | 01:12 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | oh, it wouldn't be under installed : | 01:12 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | :) | 01:12 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | I want you to see if it's a thin. Do all software | 01:12 |
| pajamieez | well it shows up in history | 01:12 |
| pajamieez | its a thing | 01:13 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | yay, install b43legacy-installer and try that. | 01:14 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | it's referenced here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/44659/how-do-you-get-the-broadcom-bcm4306-wireless-card-working | 01:14 |
| pajamieez | wow, had I known this was a thing | 01:14 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | :) | 01:14 |
| pajamieez | not showing up in the network manager | 01:15 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | broadcom is a funny chip maker. There are so many ways to get their stuff working. | 01:15 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | you installed it already? | 01:15 |
| pajamieez | yeah it finished | 01:15 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | geez, that ethernet is hot. | 01:15 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | dat ethernet. :) | 01:15 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | I wonder if you can modprobe b43legacy. Otherwise, reboot again | 01:15 |
| pajamieez | So according to all software so far I have firmware for b43legacy driver and installer for firmware for the b43 driver | 01:16 |
| pajamieez | there's one more "Installer package for firmware for the b43 driver (LP-PHY version) | 01:16 |
| pajamieez | I could control with driver get loaded with modprobe right? | 01:16 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | I think LP-PHY is for a specific model. Your's doesn't meet that criteria | 01:17 |
| pajamieez | I see | 01:17 |
| pajamieez | so try to modprobe it? | 01:17 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | it's like 4312 or 4313 | 01:17 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | yeah. or reboot | 01:17 |
| pajamieez | i'll reboot | 01:18 |
| pajamieez | -_- | 01:24 |
| pajamieez | nope | 01:24 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | grrr.... | 01:24 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | does it even show up in the network applet? | 01:25 |
| pajamieez | nope | 01:25 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | *manager | 01:25 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | hmm | 01:25 |
| pajamieez | It doesn't even have wireless option | 01:26 |
| pajamieez | or an option to enable it | 01:26 |
| JudgeJoeBrown | pajamieez, Is this install on a laptop? | 01:26 |
| pajamieez | yuppers | 01:26 |
| pajamieez | Whoa, JudgeJoeBrown | 01:26 |
| pajamieez | your honor | 01:27 |
| JudgeJoeBrown | pajamieez, my laptop has a option of disable in bios. Make sure it is enabled. | 01:27 |
| pajamieez | yeah I double checked that | 01:27 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | You "may" have to install the sta drivers. | 01:28 |
| pajamieez | when I first installed | 01:28 |
| pajamieez | I was notified to do so | 01:28 |
| pajamieez | so I did | 01:28 |
| pajamieez | I hit enable | 01:28 |
| JudgeJoeBrown | I hve a Dell Inispiron and if I hit the wifi off switch on the outside it won | 01:28 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | So, the STA has been installed the whole time? | 01:29 |
| pajamieez | I think so, the thing is, when I hit enable, the screen hit black and a bunch of lines came up | 01:29 |
| pajamieez | then it hung | 01:29 |
| pajamieez | so I restarted | 01:29 |
| pajamieez | then it didn't show up in the additional devices window | 01:30 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | hmm... may have to see if it's still there and remove it. | 01:30 |
| pajamieez | I have a FN+F2 option for switching it on and off | 01:30 |
| JudgeJoeBrown | it will not come back on in Linux, I have to go ito bios, switchit off then switch it back on(within bios) the physical switch won't toggle,just off | 01:30 |
| JudgeJoeBrown | why, I don't know. | 01:31 |
| pajamieez | I'll switch it off and on through the bios | 01:31 |
| pajamieez | well I'll switch if off | 01:31 |
| pajamieez | restart | 01:31 |
| pajamieez | then switch it back on | 01:31 |
| pajamieez | brb | 01:31 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | k | 01:31 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | still might have to see if STA is installed. | 01:31 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | in fact, according to the description, STA isn't even for the bcm4306 | 01:32 |
| pajamieez | Done | 01:35 |
| pajamieez | but no cigar | 01:35 |
| pajamieez | just shows wired connection 1 | 01:35 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | :( | 01:35 |
| pajamieez | I think I'm just gonna reinstall again >< | 01:36 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | :( you might have to. And just don't install the sta drivers. | 01:36 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | they're not even meant for the bcm4306 | 01:36 |
| pajamieez | really?! | 01:36 |
| pajamieez | can't I just remove them? | 01:36 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | if you can find them in the software manager | 01:37 |
| pajamieez | hmm | 01:37 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | Since they don't show up in the additional drivers anymore. | 01:37 |
| JudgeJoeBrown | pajamieez, I wired mine and Installed the broadcom drivers ,had both working before I switched eth0 off and removed the wire | 01:38 |
| pajamieez | I did that, but I never made it past taking the wire off | 01:39 |
| pajamieez | lol | 01:39 |
| pajamieez | I can't find it in software | 01:40 |
| JudgeJoeBrown | I found my driver by just typing broadcom in search | 01:41 |
| pajamieez | hmmm | 01:43 |
| pajamieez | reinstall -_- | 01:43 |
| pajamieez | Thanks for all the help guys, I'll dodge the STA drivers at start up next time and see if that works | 01:44 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | sorry, pajamieez | 01:44 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | was hoping to avoid that | 01:44 |
| pajamieez | Yeah | 01:44 |
| pajamieez | me too | 01:44 |
| pajamieez | my linux isn't good enough to avoid it yet. | 01:44 |
| SunStar | have him message me if he gets back. i've gotten pretty good with that POS b43xx chipset | 02:10 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | ok | 02:11 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | will do | 02:11 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | BCMs are evil | 02:12 |
| JudgeJoeBrown | two of the big troubles with Linux install 1.) no default install of wifi or ethernet drivers. 2.) no easy command line repair of a failed video driver. | 02:48 |
| holstein | JudgeJoeBrown: consider getting hardware with linux support | 02:48 |
| holstein | JudgeJoeBrown: intel hardware is typically "out of the box" fuctional | 02:49 |
| JudgeJoeBrown | holstein, yep always look before you leap | 02:49 |
| holstein | JudgeJoeBrown: im just saying, with most all my linux installs, i have wifi/ethernet and graphics out of the box | 02:50 |
| JudgeJoeBrown | holstein, its getting better. Some day it will work on Linux first | 02:50 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | Some day.... | 02:51 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | Until then, we do our best with what we have, and pass the info along. | 02:51 |
| JudgeJoeBrown | I fondly remember WinModems.... | 02:56 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | oh gosh | 02:57 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | don't remind me | 02:57 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | dumbest idea ever, just for an easy buck. | 02:57 |
| JudgeJoeBrown | now I have broadband. DSL and now cable broadband | 02:57 |
| JudgeJoeBrown | I would say xubuntu is an easy install for the most part | 03:21 |
| lgc | Hi, I installed 12.04 on a Gateway laptop and more often than not, while watching videos on VLC, it overheats and turns off. What gives? | 03:41 |

| num7 | hi i have no sound on my xubuntu. If i search in my system-settings there are no sound setting or audio. At the top right corner of the panel is also no sound symbol. Do i have to install a missing package? | 06:55 |
| TheSheep | num7: does your computer have a sound card? | 07:09 |
| num7 | TheSheep, i have a laptop i dont think so | 07:10 |
| elfy | num7: and what version of xubuntu have you installed? | 07:10 |
| TheSheep | if your hardware doesn't support sound, then no software will fix that | 07:10 |
| num7 | TheSheep, i had sound on this pc with ubuntu, so i guess i have a sound card | 07:11 |
| TheSheep | num7: can you check what kind? the 'lspci' command in terminal should list it | 07:12 |
| TheSheep | num7: if it doesn't, then try lshw | 07:13 |
| num7 | TheSheep, Audio device: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 04) | 07:13 |
| TheSheep | hmm, seems to be supported | 07:14 |
| num7 | elfy, i think 13.04 | 07:15 |
| elfy | num7: ok - just checking you weren't using 13.10 - indicator-sound is broken in that, you could check you have the indicator plugin on the panel and indicator-sound is installed | 07:16 |
| elfy | you could use pavucontrol as well if necessary | 07:16 |
| num7 | elfy, so i just try sudo apt-get install indicator-sound? | 07:17 |
| elfy | that would tell you :) | 07:18 |
| elfy | I'd right click panel - panel - prefs - items and make sure indicator-plugin is there as well | 07:19 |
| num7 | there is Indicator plugin but in brackets (external) | 07:21 |
| num7 | sorry i have to go i will come back i have internet again | 07:22 |

| ubottu | Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com/ or http://ubuntuforums.org/ or http://askubuntu.com/ | 09:22 |
| xubuntu906 | ok, sorry | 09:22 |
| koegs | what are you trying to do anywhay? | 09:22 |

| kingnick42 | erase xfce? | 09:24 |
| xubuntu906 | yes, I was erase apps | 09:24 |
| sirstonius | what apps did you uninstall and how were you uninstalling them? via ubuntu software center? | 09:30 |
| Milca | Hello | 09:30 |
| Milca | Just a little concern before testing, would it be a bad idea to install a second window manager to test it ? | 09:31 |
| Milca | like i3 ? | 09:31 |
| Sysi | xubuntu906: if you have trouble with english, try LoCo-channel like #ubuntu-es | 09:32 |
| xubuntu906 | !!, well, yes, I am going to reinstall | 09:32 |
| ubottu | xubuntu906: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 09:32 |
| xubuntu906 | theank you | 09:32 |
| Sysi | Milca: shouldn't break anything and you can always switch back to xfwm4 | 09:32 |
| Milca | thanks | 09:33 |
| Milca | I'll take a try | 09:33 |
| xubuntu906 | no problems | 09:33 |
| xubuntu906 | bye, thanks | 09:34 |
| sirstonius | how do i go about disabling my touchpad while typing? keeps messing me up and scrolling when typing | 09:42 |
| TheSheep | sirstonius: there is a daemon for that | 09:46 |
| Sysi | sirstonius: run »synclient -l | grep PalmD« is last character zero? | 09:46 |
| TheSheep | sirstonius: palm detection is something else | 09:46 |
| sirstonius | clickpad is 0 | 09:46 |
| TheSheep | Sysi: | 09:46 |
| Sysi | TheSheep: well, it's one way to do it, but if there's better, go ahead | 09:47 |
| sirstonius | but yeah palmdetect was 0 | 09:48 |
| sirstonius | all i know is this is driving me nuts... | 09:49 |
| sirstonius | i should be able to double tap the upper left corner of my laptop to lock it | 09:53 |
| sirstonius | would this be the LTCornerButton param? | 09:53 |
| sirstonius | Btw. found a super easy solution in the settings manager to disable touchpad while typing :) | 10:09 |
| Milca | TELL ME PLEASE | 10:10 |
| knome | Milca, please do not shout | 10:10 |
| sirstonius | Milca, to disable touchpad while typing. | 10:11 |
| sirstonius | ? | 10:11 |
| Milca | oups sorry caps lock fail | 11:18 |
| Milca | sistronius, how did you manage it ? | 11:19 |
| Sysi | there's an option in settings manager (in new enough xubuntu version) | 11:28 |
| Milca | ho ok I didn't see it, Ill check that thanks | 11:44 |
| xubuntu259 | Hello | 13:06 |
| NotSoGood | yo | 13:18 |
| bgardner | NotSoGood: Hello | 13:18 |
| NotSoGood | Im having trouble with lightdm | 13:18 |
| NotSoGood | i cant log in to my primary user | 13:18 |
| NotSoGood | Well i can in console terminal | 13:19 |
| bgardner | NotSoGood: More details, please - any messages you receive, behavior, etc. | 13:19 |
| NotSoGood | but when i log in through the dm.... it breefly shows me a dark screen then the login screen pops back up | 13:19 |
| NotSoGood | i can log in just fine with other usernames | 13:20 |
| NotSoGood | so is it my xfce conf is nuts | 13:20 |
| NotSoGood | or my personal xinit stuff is nuts | 13:20 |
| NotSoGood | not that ive messes with either | 13:20 |
| NotSoGood | just shut down as usual last night and its like this when i start up now | 13:21 |
| bgardner | NotSoGood: Log into a terminal and paste.ubuntu.com the output of: tail -n 50 .xsession-errors | 13:22 |
| NotSoGood | file is empty | 13:23 |
| Sysi | NotSoGood: remove ~/.ICEauthority from terminal | 13:24 |
| NotSoGood | not helping | 13:25 |
| bgardner | NotSoGood: Have you tried logging in with other session types besides Xubuntu yet, just as a diagnostic? | 13:29 |
| NotSoGood | Xubuntu ans Xfce is all i got and i tried both | 13:30 |
| NotSoGood | i imagine it may be a corupt xfce config | 13:30 |
| NotSoGood | but where they hide those these days_ | 13:30 |
| NotSoGood | ? | 13:30 |
| NotSoGood | Also i had an external monitor attached when it failed | 13:32 |
| NotSoGood | err | 13:32 |
| NotSoGood | i mean when i shut down last nigh | 13:32 |
| NotSoGood | night | 13:32 |
| NotSoGood | maybe its some user spesific monitor setting thats nuts | 13:33 |
| Sysi | settings are stored in ~/.config/xfce4/ | 13:34 |
| NotSoGood | so i tried to delete the xfce confing info | 13:34 |
| NotSoGood | and that did nothing | 13:34 |
| NotSoGood | So where would user specific monitor setting be hiding | 13:34 |
| bgardner | NotSoGood: Grasping at straws a bit here, but please show us this: dir ~ -rAt | tail -n 30 | 13:35 |
| NotSoGood | ah never mind | 13:39 |
| bgardner | NotSoGood: What did you find? | 13:40 |
| NotSoGood | that line did not directly help but indirectly i noticed some permissions being off on the Xautority stuff | 13:40 |
| bgardner | NotSoGood: That was my hope - glad it helped you. | 13:41 |
| NotSoGood | thank you | 13:42 |
| theghost | Hi, I have a problem with Xubuntu 13.04 and 13.10. I use lightdm with autologin and want my gnome-keyring unlocked but it does not work. Gnome compab is activated. It's working perfectly if I logout and re-login but not with autologin. Where's the trick ? | 13:42 |
| NotSoGood | Any suggestion on how to make remote X terminals preform better? | 13:43 |
| Sysi | what remote protocol you are using? | 13:44 |
| NotSoGood | just straight up X for now | 13:45 |
| ochosi | theghost: with autologin activated the keyring can generally only be deactivated by setting an empty keyring password (which results in unencrypted storage e.g. of your wlan-passwords) | 13:45 |
| Sysi | you could try vnc or x2go | 13:45 |
| ochosi | theghost: and with "deactivated" i meant "unlocked" :) | 13:45 |
| NotSoGood | which work ok for text editors and other mundane stuff but rather jittery for browsing modern websites | 13:45 |
| bgardner | NotSoGood: See also: http://www.vigor.nu/dxpc/ (although I don't have any experience with it) | 13:46 |
| NotSoGood | Im intending to run 10-20 x terminals | 13:47 |
| theghost | security does not matter in this case, i use luks. i will try empty password in seahorse. thx | 13:47 |
| NotSoGood | So it need to be something where its just one port that accept login for multiple concurent individual sessions | 13:48 |
| NotSoGood | Not some VNC where you have to set up each individual server/display on a separate port | 13:48 |
| Sysi | ssh x-forwarding should be pretty good if you have fast enough lan, nx which x2go is based on is pretty popular too | 13:51 |
| NotSoGood | 1gb card in the server and 100mb clients conected to gb switch | 13:52 |
| NotSoGood | but its really low power Allwinner A13 based clients | 13:53 |
| Sysi | have you thought about setting up LTSP? | 13:53 |
| NotSoGood | probably not a bad idea | 13:53 |
| Sysi | it's literally made for that kind of stuff | 13:54 |
| NotSoGood | ive seen some pretty high performing X terminals | 13:55 |
| NotSoGood | So i know what i want to achieve is possible | 13:56 |
| theghost | Ok, tried setting a blank password, but it did not work. gnome-keyring is still locked after autologin | 13:59 |
| theghost | Anyone has an idea how I get gnome-keyring unlocked using lightdm with autologin. Keyring-Password is already blank and Gnome-Compability mode is activated. Is the keyring not started properly ? | 14:04 |

| Sysi | download, extract and move folder containing "xfwm4" folder to hidden folder .themes in your home directory | 14:51 |
| Sysi | you might need to create .themes | 14:51 |
| peyam | Ive done it | 14:52 |
| peyam | but where do I set it as default | 14:52 |

| xubuntu359 | what osd does xubuntu use for it's volume up and down when using hotkeys on a keyboard? | 17:47 |
| ochosi | xubuntu359: xfce4-notifyd | 17:50 |
| xubuntu359 | ochosi: thanks I got that one, but what else calls the display to show up. I've looked at xfce4-volumed but it is different to my brightness osd | 17:50 |
| ochosi | xubuntu359: the brightness osd is currently hardcoded in xfce4-powermanager (that'll be different in the next release) | 17:51 |
| xubuntu359 | ochosi: is there a way to invoke the brightness osd to show up with different key combinations? | 17:52 |
| xubuntu359 | basically my fn key is fried, so i cannot use the brightness fn up and down | 17:52 |
| ochosi | you can try to remap your fn key to a different key or key-combination with XModMap (maybe) | 17:53 |
| xubuntu359 | volume osd even | 17:53 |

| w30 | peyam, that's a lot of work. Instructions on the url say install the stuff on links at the bottom. Four links | 20:01 |
| w30 | peyam, just off hand it looks like you need Gtk, Emerald, and compiz | 20:02 |
| peyam | then I don want it | 20:04 |
| w30 | peyam, I have no idea if you can find a emerald .deb you can install. Probably you will have to compile it. My last attempt at compiling Emerald failed | 20:05 |
| TylerD | hi | 20:10 |
| w30 | peyam, just keep looking for something similar color wise w/o the extra 's | 20:10 |
| Sysi | you'll soon figure out almost all themes are for other version of something or just broken | 20:12 |
| peyam | I found something better | 20:13 |
| w30 | or the thems won't be consistent for all apps. | 20:14 |
| w30 | thems/themes | 20:14 |
| w30 | *bummer* | 20:14 |
| Sysi | that goes for broken | 20:14 |
| Sysi | moebuntu versions are pretty sweet, though they'd need pink faenza or something | 20:17 |
| mario_ | Hi there, is there an applet for system tray for removable devices? | 20:19 |
| peyam | mario_, I dont think so | 20:25 |
| Andre_designer | maybe someone can help me. i want to switch over to ubuntu but the breakpoint is the browsertesting. firefox in ubuntu looks different (different font(size) and bolder) and i don't actually not quit good how to do to test different IE-versions read/try/hear to install different IE-virtual machines in virtualbox but they are big and you must what read activate each 30 days. Do somebody how to handle this?? with different broswers. an | 21:37 |
| gregor3005 | hi, i have installed xubuntu and configured the network from the gui but it didn not starts up. when i run "sudo dhcpclient eth0" in the shell i get a internet connection | 21:56 |
| Sysi | Andre_designer: there's http://browsershots.org/ but if you want to test locally, for windows you of course need windows licence, for firefox you might need to install microsoft fonts and edit font settings | 21:59 |
| ArthurZey | I've got what I hope is a quick question. I booted the installation ISO in a VirtualBox VM in order to install it on the virtual hard drive, and after it gives me an indication that I have enough hard drive space etc. and asked me whether I wanted to download updates from the internet and include third-part applications, it dumps me into a login screen. This seems wrong to me, but are there credentials I can use? | 23:00 |
| pmjdebru1jn | ArthurZey: sounds like teh installer crashed | 23:22 |
| pmjdebru1jn | but that's just a quick guess | 23:22 |
| ArthurZey | I tried twice... | 23:24 |
| ArthurZey | From a cold reboot of the VM | 23:24 |
| pmjdebru1jn | might just be VirtualBox | 23:29 |
| pmjdebru1jn | works fine on a real system here | 23:29 |
| pmjdebru1jn | at least IIRC | 23:29 |
| ArthurZey | hmm. Okay. I just used default settings. I haven't had a problem installing Ubuntu 13.04 in VirtualBox, or even (gasp) Windows 7. | 23:42 |
| ArthurZey | Has anybody else tried this? Are there default credentials that I might try anyway? | 23:42 |
