=== bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [01:47] Is there a way I can get my laptop's radio to prefer 5GHz? [04:59] I think I've found a bug in 13.10 that isn't in the release notes [04:59] !bug [04:59] If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. [05:00] not sure what package it would be, xubuntu-base? [05:00] What's up? [05:00] gggs, start there, sure [05:01] In the power-manager, I have "When the laptop lid is closed" set to "Lock screen" for "on battery" and "on AC", but when I close the lid it suspends [05:02] Quite a surprise since I was burning a DVD and uploading files at the time [05:06] Ah, yeah. That. [05:06] xfpm doesn't support systemd. [05:07] 13.04 worked fine, did something change? [05:10] Yes, now it's using systemd-logind for some things, check man logind.conf [05:15] ah, "HandleLidSwitch= default to suspend. [05:19] There's a patch for xfpm in the bug report to work with sysd, or whatever is built from that source that Ubuntu uses.

[17:01] Is there a way to get plymouth to work with Nvidia drivers on Xubuntu LTS? [17:07] xubuntu869, yes [17:16] xubuntu869, see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9175501 [17:20] GridCube, thanks, I just tried it. Going to reboot and see how it goes! [17:55] hi \o/ [17:56] i'd like to install xubuntu 13.10 on an amd athlon 64 3200+, 702 mb ram and ati radeon xpress 200, will it run or not in your opinion? [18:00] Umberts: yes, it will run :) [18:00] baizon: thank you :D [18:00] coz I have windows xp right now, but it sucks [18:00] Umberts: "To install or try Xubuntu within the Desktop/Live CD, you need 256 MB of memory. Installing with the Alternate CD (for 12.04 only) requires 64 MB. Once installed, it is strongly recommended to have at least 512 MB of memory." [18:00] and my big doubt was about the gpu [18:01] Umberts: so xubuntu will run without problems :) [18:01] that is kinda old [18:01] :D [18:01] Umberts: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver [18:02] Umberts: that link says... "Fully Supported ... RS400/RS480 Radeon XPRESS 200(M)/1100 IGP" [18:02] I can't say it'd be flawless, I have one with 1G of ram and it's lacking at times. [18:02] baizon: thank you :D [18:02] Umberts: no problem :) [18:03] Unit193: well, I know it's not an octacore, but I'd like to have a more recent OS for this machine that I could manage for my family [18:03] cos winxp lags [18:04] Umberts: Try it live, see how you like it and see how it works. [18:04] and my usual distro, slackware, is not so user friendly [18:04] Unit193: will try asap, thanks (: [18:23] is compiz outdated? [18:23] can i install compiz on xfce? [18:23] on 13.10? [18:24] you probably can, it wont be easy though [18:25] compton does work tho [18:25] what is compton? [18:25] another composition manager [18:26] i mean if you want to replace the xfce compositor [18:26] it's the latest GridCube ? [18:26] its being currently developed if thats what you are asking [18:27] GridCube, is it attractive? [18:28] the effects and all [18:29] its ok, it doesnt have a gui configuration, but apparently you can do pretty things with it, id watch for some youtube videos featuring it [18:33] GridCube, should i go for compiz or compton? [18:34] ovrflw0x: why do you want to install compiz in the first place? any particular reason? [18:34] brainwash, i don't have any preference, i want the one which just is pleasant and works well [18:35] and xfwm4 + its built-in compositor does not work ok for you? [18:36] it's not pleasing [18:36] so what is missing? [18:36] no window transition effects [18:37] compton is kinda limited, transparency, shadows, fade in/out effects [18:37] so no wobbly windows, zoom effects, and so on [18:37] does it have transition effect when i minimize maximize windows? [18:39] brainwash, ? [18:40] no (but I'm not using it right now, so I cannot verify it) [18:40] just fading effects [18:40] hello [18:40] brainwash, so you are using xfce with compositing? [18:40] without* [18:41] i've upgraded my xfce4-terminal to the trusty one because it fixes the encoding bug [18:41] ovrflw0x: currently I have no demand for compositing [18:41] ovrflw0x: feel free to install compton and do some testing :) [18:42] is that version final or is it in a testing stage [18:42] the 0.6.2-3 [18:42] make sure you disable xfwm4's compositor before you start it [18:42] linuxuser1000: stable version including the fix [18:43] i am enjoing xubuntu [18:43] i came from crappy unity [18:43] after it crashed on me [18:44] like once? or did it crash regularly? :) [18:44] quite regularly [18:45] actually [18:45] xfce is way better [18:45] i tried enabling compiz on unity it went all apeshit [18:45] if you try the same on xfce [18:45] compiz should be enabled by default when you run unity [18:45] boom [18:46] well the effecs [18:46] *effects [18:46] the eyecandy stuff [18:46] lol [18:46] ah, so you messed with the different effects [18:46] xfce allows me to do that stuff [18:46] no crashes [18:46] no anything [18:48] that's great :) [20:48] what's name for these dependencies in ubuntu? http://code.google.com/p/trizen/#Dependencies [20:57] looks so good out the box... [20:58] I actually love xubntu but i installed it using the option to leave windows and have dual boot [20:58] so now what i need to do is actually remove xubuntu and there is no uninstall option [20:58] My brother did the same. He still needs itunes... [20:58] what do i have to do ? [20:59] do i just clear the partitions that it installed on ? [21:00] which version of windows do u have installed [21:00] windows 7 home premium 64 bit [21:00] boominz28: more or less - though you also need to reinstall the windows bootloader [21:00] urg [21:00] i thought it woudl be like ubuntu where i could just unintsall it [21:01] i actually like it , but i want it on a diff laptop not this one [21:02] has anyone tried installing chromium? [21:02] you deleted ubuntu's partition and it booted into windows without problem? [21:02] boominz28: did you use Wubi? [21:02] no i havent done that elfy [21:02] i thought it woudl be like ubuntu where i could just unintsall it [21:02] wubi is not supported with saucy [21:02] Plenty of people use chromium, I'm just not one of them. [21:02] boominz28: what do you mean by that then ? [21:02] ummm cant remember , i just made the iso and ran from disk [21:03] you press to try ubuntu or install? [21:03] install [21:03] big mistake you should have tried it first [21:03] boominz28: well, no idea what you did previously, but if you've installed Xubuntu as a normal dual boot then if you just delete the partition you will get a grub error [21:04] Junka: not sure that's actually helping with the issue [21:04] What's up with having issues setting up chromium as the default web browser? [21:04] boominz28: so - find how to reinstall the windows bootloader BEFORE you delete the partition [21:04] will he will need win7 cd to do that [21:05] yea i have the windows 7 repair disk [21:05] perfect [21:05] yep [21:06] yea i kind of figured thats what i woudl have to do , just wanted to see if maybe wa an update or some other way thanks for your info [21:06] boominz28: it does depend though on us assuming you've done a normal dualboot [21:06] i did, i just did all the recommended , didnt make any changes [21:06] boominz28: run sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit [21:07] one sec , will do [21:07] in a terminal, give us the url and we can check you are using a normal install [21:11] Well, switched to google-chrome-stable and no issue [21:13] elfy sorry , for taking so long , im at work and trying to do 3 things at once lol [21:14] boominz28: no problem :) [21:16] yeah seriously, what is wrong with chrome? [21:17] no problems with unity but it has a really rough time correctly operating under xfce [21:17] nothing , i was talking about running chromium os [21:20] yeaa i dont think im doing that one right elfy , [21:21] i typed it just like this "sudo fdisk -1 | pastebinit" [21:21] boominz28: ok - no matter - though it's not a 1 but a lower case L [21:21] pffft [21:21] aah - there you go :) [21:22] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6407484 [21:23] boominz28: ok - just wanted to see if you actually had linux partitions :) you do [21:23] yea. so in order to get my system back to way it was prior , i just clear the partitions and run the windows repair disk? [21:24] boominz28: so - make sure you have info to reinstall win bootloader, remove the partitions with a livecd/usb - then boot the win thing and do the win stuff [21:24] yea i have the windows 7 repair disk [21:24] boominz28: yep that should do it - then just carry on enjoying xubuntu on the laptip [21:24] and your right junky i should have used the try [21:25] i do enjoy it, its very fast [21:25] i do however want to try chomium os [21:26] boominz28: try it then - look into virtual machines - if you've a machine that will work ok with them - so much easier to look at things then [21:26] the only issue i have with the xubuntu dual boot is the options it gives me , i see 2 windows 7 one on sda 2 and one on sda 3 [21:27] yea - personally I'd format them both as ext4 and use them for data storage :) [21:27] if it would just ask xubuntu or windows 7 then it would be easier to choos [21:27] oh [21:27] so is that the only issue you've got? [21:27] no i like haveing the dual boot [21:27] yea [21:27] for one , i dont know which windows 7 to chooose [21:27] when i need it [21:28] right - well I think you can hide the one you don't need - though I've not got the time to look into it now [21:28] its ok [21:30] thank you though for your help [21:31] boominz28: try searching for something like "extra windows partition grub 2" [21:31] there are ways to do it :) [21:31] then you'd just have the one you want to boot [21:31] boominz28: good luck :) [21:33] elfy, how do i make gtk-youtube-viewer run on xubuntu? http://code.google.com/p/trizen/#About_gtk-youtube-viewer [21:34] VLC can play youtube links if you paste them into the Open Network Location dialog box... [21:34] absolutely no idea - never used it - rarely even use youtube, better to ask the question of the channel and then those can answer will do [21:34] i don't want to find link manually paste them in vlc to watch [21:35] hello world [21:35] "Finding the link manually" is so easy, go up to address bar, copy. [21:35] xubuntu654: Howdy. [21:36] IRCing while installing the OS [21:36] oO [21:37] welcome xubuntu654 :) [21:39] Anyone know how to change volume step size in 13.10? volumed in settings-editor isn't there anymore so can't change step size? === map is now known as Guest50267 [22:47] Installed 13.10 xubuntu with encryption replacing ubuntu 13.01. Problem "cryptsetup: evms_active is not aavalibale"??? [22:48] the option to encrypt the whole disk? [22:48] or the home folder? [22:48] yes [22:48] and home folder [22:49] You need to erase the partition first from livecd using gparted, then reboot to install your system. Worked for me [22:50] There may be an error from gparted just ignore it [22:50] Ok, I will do that and thanks I will give it a try. [22:50] :) [22:51] :) [22:51] thanks again.
