[00:22] <__raven_> hi
[00:22] <__raven_> how to disable crash reporting?
[00:57] <GridCube> how do i know if a cdrom drive is being detected?
[00:58] <holstein> GridCube: i just throw something in and try and mount
[00:58] <GridCube> because it obviously its not opening the cd im placing in it
[00:58] <holstein> GridCube: no discs? i had one that had "lost the ability" to read DVD's, but read CD's
[00:58] <GridCube> and i dont know if its the cds/dvds im trying or its that the sata slot im using is not being read
[01:00] <GridCube> no. tried several cds/dvs
[01:00] <GridCube> :(
[01:01] <__raven_> how to disable crash reporting?
[01:04] <holstein> __raven_: http://askubuntu.com/questions/93457/how-do-i-enable-or-disable-apport
[01:04] <holstein> GridCube: :/
[01:04] <GridCube> \:
[01:04] <GridCube> im pretty sure the device is not being detected but i dont know how to check
[01:05] <holstein> if the disc work elsewhere, then something is wrong with the hardware.. could be the drive is bad, or the cable.. i would just trade things out til i get it sorted
[01:07] <GridCube> yeah, but i have to shut down the pc again to check XD i just wanted to check some old backup cds/dvd to see what was on them

[05:27] <hurdorbsd> hi
[05:28] <hurdorbsd> I installed Xubuntu with Encrypted Disk and it ask me to choose a passphrase .. I have to enter it everytime I login
[05:29] <hurdorbsd> But it also asked me to save a auto generated passphrase .. and print and save it ..
[05:29] <hurdorbsd> What is that for?
[05:34] <Rochvellon> hurdorbsd> it ist for accessing the harddisk with your data in case your system is corrupted und you cannot start it any more. then you can take a live system and backup your data e.g.
[05:35] <hurdorbsd> Ok I get it .. so Do I have to print and save it??
[05:35] <hurdorbsd> or update it same online safely?
[05:35] <hurdorbsd> Print and save is way better right?
[05:35] <Rochvellon> i think so
[05:35] <hurdorbsd> Ok
[05:37] <hurdorbsd> How can I test my FGLRX graphics ... see I am using Opensource graphics right now .. I can play 720p without any flaw .. but when I play 1080p it is problematic .. I installed fglrx-updates driver from hardware driver option but again same problem .. but it was not the case in Windows
[05:41] <hurdorbsd> When I use an external HDD I get Error when getting information for file '/media/bud/New Volume/xubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64.iso': Input/output error.
[05:49] <Rochvellon> hurdorbsd> it could be a failure of the harddisk. what's about the smart status?
[06:32] <hurdorbsd> Rochvellon I fixed it on a Windows system ..
[06:32] <hurdorbsd> It just repaired it in Secs
[06:32] <hurdorbsd> maybe cuz it was formated with Windows
[06:36] <hurdorbsd> how to install ttfs in xubuntu
[06:49] <koegs> either via apt-get or put it in /usr/share/fonts/truetype
[06:59] <hurdorbsd> koegs but when I use my ttf fonts in AbiWord it won't work y
[07:06] <koegs> hurdorbsd: try this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fonts#Manually
[07:06] <hurdorbsd> I did it .. but it is not showing my fonts in AbiWord .. I mean it shows them but won't show preview of the fonts and neither would it show when I type em
[07:08] <hurdorbsd> Do I need to install restricted extra?
[07:12] <xubuntu484> Hey everyone. I'm running Xubuntu and I got into the text command line interface and it kicked me out of the GUI, what command will close this and get me back into the GUI?
[07:12] <hurdorbsd> startx
[07:13] <xubuntu484> startx gave me a fatal IO error 11
[07:17] <koegs> xubuntu484: sudo restart lightdm
[07:17] <hurdorbsd> sudo kill lightdm
[07:18] <xubuntu484> all good now, thanks
[07:18] <hurdorbsd> ok
[07:19] <hurdorbsd> I am installing xubuntu restricted plugins
[07:19] <xubuntu484> Running the terminal emulator gives me the same commands as the text command line interface, right?
[07:19] <koegs> it is basically the same, just a different interface
[07:20] <hurdorbsd> linux is fast with cp stuff idk y
[07:20] <hurdorbsd> it is 15% faster than windows with same machine
[07:39] <freedomrun> gm
[07:39] <freedomrun> is it possible to get unread notification count and read them in panel?
[07:39] <hurdorbsd> ok
[07:55] <NuSuey> well, anyone with a problem with skype (latest) on xbuntu (13.10) - I don't get any output from the caller, I hear the "login" sound of skype, but not the caller.. tried to change sound output in the pulseaudio-prefs, nothing.. restarted skype, nothing, killed pulsaudio and restarted it.. nothing :o
[08:00] <NuSuey> I guess it's just some general skype issue.. should probably use Hangouts instead
[08:09] <NuSuey> everybody sleeping .. I guess
[10:22] <ObrienDave> I think I just borked my Xubuntu partition

[20:42] <sventon> hi all.  I try to follow the instructions here: http://javahacker.com/how-to-setup-ubuntu-under-macos-x-on-a-macbook-with-swedish-keyboard-svenskt-tangentbord-using-virtualbox/  but the guide is writen for gnome and i am not able to find this menu in xf4. Do I need to install gnome to change this settings ?
[20:43] <sventon> In gnome you can select "System->Preferences->Keyboard" and then "key bord model"
[20:45] <Sh1G3rU> sventon, settings -> keyboard -> layout
[20:48] <sventon> Sh1G3rU: oh, I run lubuntu, maybe the xfce have a diffrent layout compared with xbuntu ?  I have no settings -> keyboard -> layout option
[20:50] <pleia2> sventon: lubuntu is lxde, not xfce, you probably want to ask in #lubuntu
[20:52] <sventon> pleia2: sorry, did not know about the #lubuntu room , thanks
