allstarsnorks2Hi guys06:32

allstarsnorks2I'm going to replace Zorin OS 7 with Xubuntu 13.10.06:34
allstarsnorks2Xubuntu's Software Updater crashed er06:34
cfhowlettallstarsnorks2, sounds like a plan.  You do know that 13.10 has only 9 months of support, right?06:34
allstarsnorks2Yep06:35
allstarsnorks2How do I install every gambas2 package? (I'm trying to base my distro off Ubuntu)06:56
allstarsnorks2And software centre said I have to install gambas2 packages (for Ubuntu Builder)06:57
cfhowlettallstarsnorks2, you could download the .deb and sudo dpkg -i foo.deb06:58
allstarsnorks2Oh. I'll do that after the install.06:59
cfhowlettallstarsnorks2, that IS how you install that package...06:59
allstarsnorks2No I mean Xubuntu 13.10 install on my PC.07:00
cfhowlettallstarsnorks2, ok.07:00
allstarsnorks2Was just testing Xubuntu 13.10 on a VM that's why. Now it's on a PC.07:01
allstarsnorks2I hate GRUB.07:04
cfhowlettallstarsnorks2, there are other bootloaders ...07:05
allstarsnorks2Oh sure.07:07

JoseGabrielHello. Can anybody help me install a network printer?13:56
JoseGabrielAfter clicking forward on the choose driver part, it just stays there, thinking, and nothing happens.13:56
JoseGabrielEven if I chose the Local Driver option.13:56
JoseGabriel(I have the ppt file)13:56
JoseGabrielThe gutenprint option tells me it's getting installed and it stays there.13:57
JoseGabrielPerhaps a command line way of doing it.13:58
heavyammoJoseGabriel, I would post that in #ubuntu13:58
JoseGabrielJust did, heavyammo, no response.13:58
JoseGabrielThey'be busy answering questions like "How do i change channel?" :)13:59
heavyammoyeah, try reposting it in five minutes or so, I think a lot of the support is American and there it is early in the morning right now, I noticed the channel is very quite14:00
heavyammoyou could also try askubuntu14:01
heavyammothey are kind of quick to reply14:01
JoseGabrielI'll tryt hat.14:02
JoseGabrielThanks.14:02
clipperHi, I have a problem with xfce. When I start some applications the taskbar icon is too big for the taskbar. I am using 12.04 and have updated xfce to 4.10 (I also experienced it with 4.12 on a previous installation). The taskbar is set to size 20 but some icons start at the default size of 24, like this http://i.imgur.com/PdZAPML.png14:23
ochosiclipper: in case that's the indicator-plugin, you should be able to right-click it and go to properties and set a maximum icon-size (depending on your panel height)14:47
ochosias i don't use clementine, i wouldn't know whether it's a trayicon or an indicator14:48
clipperI thought I had tried that but I'll give it another try14:57
clipperno, it still starts too large15:05
ochosiclipper: did you restart the panel? (xfce4-panel --restart)15:12
clipperthat seems to have worked for one program that does it actually15:19

xubuntu818Hi, I've just downloaded xbuntu 13.10, but I only get text when I boot from the DVD. How do I start the installation??17:30
PiiiRKOxubuntu818: Hi there, did you burn ISO as a bootable DVD?..17:31
xubuntu818Yes, it boots from the DVD, but I just get a terminal screen, that says 'type help for the list of commarnds'17:33
xubuntu818Sorry, that should be commands17:36
elfyxubuntu818: did you check the iso was good before you burnt it? and do you not get a screen with a 'human and kbd' at bottom? if you do press any key and there is an option to check the cd for defects I believe17:37
xubuntu818Thanks, I'll reboot and press a key17:57

infamyHi. I'm trying to hook up my laptop via HDMI to my flatscreen to be able to display Netflix on the TV. When I hook up the HDMI cable, it says No Input still, as if nothing was plugged up at all. It works in Windows, so I'm assuming I don't have something set correctly. Is there anyone available that could please assist?21:57

JainAmberHello22:32
JainAmberA close friend tried running Xubuntu 12.04 on her laptop (Acer Aspire) using live USB. Everything seemed to work fine (including wifi).22:34
JainAmberThen she installed Xubuntu on the same laptop but now the wifi drivers weren't installed, When she clicks on network manager icon, she gets to see a message like "Wifi firmware drivers not installed"22:36
JainAmberSo, live USB somehow installs correct wifi adaptor drivers, but hard disk installation could not.22:36
JainAmberIs there some way to search, extract (from live USB mode) and then manually install these drivers onto hard disk installation?22:37
HaggardJainAmber: Before you do that, did you check the additional drivers setting? It might show you if there's a different driver available.22:38
JainAmberHaggard, I guess the "Additional Drivers" program requires an internet connection (though I'm not sure because I tried this a few days ago).22:40
HaggardJainAmber: Does the system have an ethernet port?22:41
JainAmberHaggard, yes, but ethernet port is damaged. And so, wifi is the only option.22:41
HaggardI'm not a support guy, but I'll try to help until a guru jumps in.  :)22:41
JainAmberUnless I somehow get a 3G USB dongle to connect to internet over 3g (which will be difficult).22:41
JainAmberHaggard, well, to be honest, I don't have physical access to that laptop right now. My friend lives in another city (but I'll be visiting her on November 22)22:42
HaggardIt should still look at the installation media, but let me check real quick.22:42
JainAmberI will come back to this channel on Nov 22-23...22:43
JainAmberI could have setup SSH access but Internet isn't working ;)22:43
xubuntu378hello looking for some help installing a network printer , when trying to install through the gui it just stalls - found a question raised on ask ubuntu with a same problem but not answered22:44

JainAmber(ofcourse, I need to find my wireless card model number and corresponding driver package name first)22:45
