| lapt0p | Interesting, a lot of users here, compared to the Lubuntu official IRC channel :) | 00:32 |
|---|---|---|
| lapt0p | Wow, i am amazed. Finally Xubuntu plays Youtube videos without lagging and without any difference compared to Windows. Interesting, interesting :) | 00:35 |

| puff | I just installed raring off a at-least-several-months-old DVD, then xubuntu-desktop. I know SOP is to update everything after you first install, to get the latest and greatest. However, I also know that these days it's recommended to do it via synaptic or software center. Looks like it's software center on this install. I don't see where in software center to do the update/upgrade. | 04:34 |
| puff | And.. just as I typed that, the software updates notificaiton finally popped up. Thanks! | 04:35 |
| puff | Man, this is annoying... I can't figure out how to add a menubar shortcut for gnome-terminal. | 05:01 |

| ObrienDave | xubuntu674, yes, that would be normal for a fresh install from the live DVD | 09:07 |
| cfhowlett | xubuntu674, especially normal if you didn't install the latest point release 12.4.3 | 09:07 |
| xubuntu674 | I try to launch the updates then the update manager opens but when I click the install button nothing happen | 09:08 |
| xubuntu674 | the manager close himself | 09:08 |
| xubuntu674 | I used the USB way to install xubuntu | 09:09 |
| ObrienDave | xubuntu674, can you open a terminal>? | 09:09 |
| ObrienDave | that's fine | 09:09 |
| xubuntu674 | uhh, I'm a profane that wil be difficult if I have to do manipulations | 09:10 |
| ObrienDave | it will be ok. do you know how to open a terminal? | 09:11 |

| xubuntu674 | hum I think it's over | 09:36 |
| xubuntu674 | Should I restart the computer? | 09:36 |
| ObrienDave | only if it tells you that you need to | 09:36 |
| ObrienDave | what is the last line in the terminal window | 09:37 |
| xubuntu674 | It seems over because I have this line : *myname*@*mycomputersname*:$ | 09:38 |
| ObrienDave | yes, that means it is done. you can reboot if you like. it's not usually necessary. | 09:39 |
| ObrienDave | try to run system updater again. it should tell you your computer is up to date | 09:39 |

| nicola | hi | 10:26 |
| nicola | silly question if i can | 10:26 |
| nicola | unexperienced question i mean | 10:26 |
| bgardner | nicola: Ask away | 10:26 |
| nicola | why is it called terminal emulator | 10:26 |
| nicola | and not just emulator | 10:27 |
| nicola | and not just terminal | 10:27 |
| nicola | sorry | 10:27 |
| nicola | so it is an emulator and not really a terminal? | 10:27 |
| knome | because it's not a terminal, it's emulating a terminal | 10:27 |
| knome | yes, and calling it emulator only wouldn't say what it's emulating | 10:27 |
| nicola | sure not :) | 10:28 |
| nicola | so ms dos is a real terminal? | 10:28 |
| knome | that's beyond my expertise, and beyond the scope of this channel | 10:28 |
| nicola | i mean, where can i find a real terminal | 10:28 |
| knome | !offtopic | 10:28 |
| ubottu | #xubuntu is the Xubuntu support channel, #xubuntu-devel for discussion regarding development of Xubuntu, and #xubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 10:28 |
| nicola | ok | 10:28 |
| bgardner | nicola: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_emulator | 10:30 |
| nicola | thanks guys for your support | 10:33 |
| nicola | i am just loving xubuntu | 10:33 |
| theixle | Do many xubuntu chrubuntu users hang out here? | 12:59 |
| GridCube | ¿Qué? | 13:00 |
| cfhowlett | theixle, unlike. doesnt' chrubuntu have a channel of its own? | 13:00 |
| theixle | cfhowlett, it does but it's way less populated/active | 13:00 |
| koegs | what is chrubuntu? | 13:07 |
| cfhowlett | koegs, chrome+ubuntu | 13:08 |
| theixle | Yeah, it's the name of the project that makes installing Ubuntu variants on a chromebook. | 13:09 |
| theixle | So I've got Xubuntu running almost flawlessly on a $199 chromebook | 13:09 |
| ochosi | theixle: sweet, which one? | 13:20 |
| theixle | ochosi, Acer C7 | 13:35 |
| ochosi | righty | 13:36 |
| ochosi | good to know | 13:36 |
| ochosi | you could write a blog article about that | 13:37 |
| ochosi | would be something we could then feature on xubuntu.org (gotta ask other team members bout that though) | 13:37 |
| theixle | ochosi, the guy who did it has a blog here: http://chromeos-cr48.blogspot.com/ | 13:48 |

| xubnew | hi | 16:59 |
| xubnew | i need some help | 16:59 |
| bgardner | xubnew: Go ahead and ask your question. | 16:59 |
| xubnew | i'm trying to install xubunto on vmware | 16:59 |
| xubnew | but it starts the installation without setup | 17:00 |
| xubnew | it is suposed to be like that? | 17:00 |
| xubnew | bgardner ... | 17:03 |
| xubnew | anyone? | 17:05 |
| bgardner | xubnew: I don't actually know the answer, sorry. | 17:06 |
| xubnew | ok tks anyway | 17:07 |
| elfy | xubnew: can you explain what you're seeing - I have never seen that behaviour | 17:07 |
| xubnew | u're familiar with vmware player? | 17:08 |
| elfy | oh sorry - read that as vbox lol | 17:08 |
| xubnew | i create a new virtual machine | 17:08 |
| xubnew | select xubunto 13.04 desktop i386 | 17:09 |
| elfy | I'm not familiar with vmware | 17:09 |
| bgardner | same here, I just use vbox | 17:10 |
| xubnew | hmmm how much different it is? | 17:10 |
| elfy | no idea - not used vmware for 6 years | 17:11 |
| xubnew | kk | 17:11 |
| bgardner | xubnew: No idea, never used anything but vbox | 17:11 |
| xubnew | :/ | 17:12 |
| xubnew | i even know if its vmware's fault | 17:12 |
| xubnew | it supposed to appear the setup installation before it starts copying files right? | 17:13 |
| bgardner | xubnew: Go ahead and describe your issue and see what happens - worst case, no one has any idea and you are none the worse for the effort. | 17:13 |
| xubnew | it supposed to appear the setup installation before it starts copying files right? | 17:14 |
| elfy | xubnew: normally you would get a 'try xubuntu' and 'install xubuntu' button | 17:16 |
| elfy | but the install button doesn't actually install - just gets you where you can install from | 17:16 |
| xubnew | yes bit i dont get any button | 17:18 |
| xubnew | *but | 17:18 |
| puff` | Good afternoon. I just installed ubuntu raring, then installed xubuntu-desktop. Then I wanted to get netflix-desktop, so I went through the various hoops, but netflix-desktop silently fails to start. I googled and found http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Raring_Media_Players#Netflix_in_Wine_app so I installed ia32-libs and ia32-libs-multiarch but that has not fixed it. | 17:18 |

| SSIXS | Have a quick question...I just downloaded and install the Xubuntu 12.04.3 64bit desktop DVD from the website and installed it... | 18:44 |
| SSIXS | It seems it's still using the 3.2.0-53 kernel...wasn't it supposed to be kerneel 3.8? | 18:46 |
| SSIXS | Or did I misunderstand something | 18:46 |
