[00:41] hello [00:41] I have a quick question [00:42] Whenever I get a notification, the button says "button" instead of close. [00:42] Is there a way this can be fixed or is this the default behavior? === IdleOne is now known as Idle0ne === Idle0ne is now known as IdleOne [06:10] Hello everyone. [06:15] Hello, NotRs! [06:15] thanks! how are you tonight? [06:18] A bit worn out. WHat about you? [06:18] I'm doing good. Checking out irc and getting a feel for it. [06:19] Do you know how to register on IRC? If you don't register, someone could steal your name. It's happened to some of my friends. [06:20] Type "/msg NickServ help register". [06:20] Yep I'm registered and identified. [06:20] Okay, good. [06:20] Thank you though. [06:21] I don't know what I would do if I lost my name. This is the only name I've found that is really me. [06:21] Does it have a particular meaning? [06:22] (Apologies if it should be obvious) [06:23] It's a permutation of "0gb.us", a truly unique name for me. It's a registered domain name, so no one else can have the same domain name. IRC won't let me begin my name with a digit though, nor will it allow dots. No, it's not obvious to anyone. It's not even a good name, but still, it is the only name I truly can call my own. [06:24] By the way, does your name have a meaning? It sounds like "not ours". [06:25] that's exactly what my name means [06:25] or not arse [06:25] ;) [06:25] I'm not fammiliar with that word. [06:25] every now and then someone thinks it's suppose to be "notorious" but it's "not ours" [06:25] lol [06:25] Ha ha, notorious. [06:26] WHat isn't yours, if you don't mind me asking? [06:27] it's an old inside joke with a friend. back in the mid 90's i found a way to get free aol accounts. one night I asked what should the screen name be, and he replied "i don't know, it's not ours" [06:27] thus.. NotRs [06:27] my nick is pretty bad with english pronunciation [06:27] * us{0gb busts up laughing [06:28] (About the AOL story, not the Sysi name.) [06:28] lol [06:28] How do you pronounce it in your language? [06:28] Sysi? how is it pronounced? [06:29] süsi [06:29] hoping you know that letter [06:29] is the second "s" a z sound or c sound? [06:29] No, but I'm guessing "sushi" or "suesy". [06:30] soozee <- is what i'm thinking [06:30] c sound [06:30] guys, not even close :P [06:30] soo sea <-- like what? [06:30] lol my apologies [06:31] Sorry, I'm a stupid United Statsian. [06:31] I am as well [06:32] http://translate.google.com/#fi/en/sysi press the speaker icon on the bottom right corner of first textbox [06:33] though the i should sound more like e [06:33] so i'm hearing "soo say" (or close) [06:33] Many thanks! I was close with "suesy". [06:33] I'm not sure if that exact sound exists in english [06:33] hey there! i moved my comp to a new city and now my wired connection doesnt work? any tips? do i have to enable lan somehow? [06:34] new city? how long is your wire? [06:34] Hmm. I haven't tried a wired connection on Xubuntu. Or really, anything besides Debian and Ubuntu. [06:35] And it was on PowerPC, not officially supported. [06:35] yeah i have a minng rig and we went home for x mas so i brought it with me to make sure i had a eye on it [06:35] the wired connection was a plug and play scneario at my house but here at my parents it cant establish a connection [06:35] xubuntu556: did you set up manual ip address in previous place, or are you supposed to do that on current location? [06:36] *static ip address [06:36] akways dynamic [06:36] i know the one here is dynamic [06:36] all the devices and computer sin the house except the rig connect fine over dhcp [06:39] it was suggested to me that i need to re-enable lan. i am pretty much a newbie to xubuntu but can find my way around most devices with some direction. [06:40] this sounds a bit ridiculous, but have you replugged the network cable couple times? [06:41] yes. i know, its puzzling as this is the last thing i expected to go wrong. i have unplugged and rebooted etc.... with no avail [06:41] i just assume that if the wired connection is set to dynamic that it should be able to receive. btw - the wired connection is coming from a belkin router.... [06:42] Ok, I know this might sound ridiculous, but try swapping ends of the cable [06:43] meaning, what's plugged in the router goes to the computer and vice versa [06:43] ok i will try this. [06:44] xubuntu556: run "ip addr show eth0" to see if you get an ip address [06:45] +1 Sysi [06:45] Speaking of which, is the cable even known to work? Last time I had a wired connection issue, it turned out the Ethernet cable itself was wonky. Do you have another cable you can try? [06:45] it that doesn't work, run "ip addr list" and please tell what interfaces it lists [06:47] on a side note I have a question about irc (I'm new) can someone message me privately when I'm offline and will I receive it when I log in? [06:47] wired connection swtich around, no change. ran show eth- and it appears i have a ip adress [06:47] NotRs: unfortunately not [06:48] NotRs: Close to that is MemoServ. [06:48] also ran ip list - have 2 interfaces i think- 1 is "lo" and 2 is "eth0 [06:49] Ignore "lo". [06:49] Sysi: thanks Unit193: I'm looking that up right now, thanks [06:49] "lo" is your local (as in localhost) connection. [06:49] ok thanks. to cnfrm - "inet" in command line refers to "Ip address" correct ? [06:50] yup [06:50] if you run "ping -c 3 google.com" do you get an error? [06:51] unknown host error [06:51] what about ping -c 3 8.8.8.8 [06:52] 3 packes, 3 erros, all destination host unreachable [06:54] hum [06:56] it doesnt make sense, eth0 has mac adress and shows up in iplist but it is not acknoledgign wire in..? [07:01] It stated you had an ip address... but could it be self-assigned? [07:02] thats what i think is the case. network settings indicate its dynamic but it doesnt appear to be [07:02] that was my thinking with the whole cable switch [07:03] oh i see. even when i delete the connection and try to restart...add new....it doesnt work [07:09] What's going on? [07:10] xubunu556 can't get his computer connected [07:10] hi [07:10] I'm new [07:10] Define can't get it connected.. [07:11] It's not connecting to the net [07:11] wired connection doesnt work - [07:11] oh [07:11] it seems like i need to enable dhcp [07:12] wait [07:12] the device is eth0? [07:12] but i am strugglign to set this up on my wired connection [07:12] And is your NIC support? [07:12] And is your NIC supported* [07:12] what is NIC? [07:12] network interface card [07:12] and yes [07:12] yes device is eth0 [07:12] That's its identifier [07:12] it is a work computer that he brought home from the holidays, works fine at the office. [07:13] I mean your chipset needs to be supported [07:13] Oh [07:13] sudo dhclient eth0 [07:13] ? [07:13] no result on run [07:13] it's got us all stumped [07:14] its actuallly a mining rig. not a work computer. so bascially my brother and i built it and learned just enought to start minng litecoins and we brought it home to my parents over the holidays [07:14] ah ok [07:15] but it was connected to a router at my house via wired and workd fine "plug in and go" [07:15] do you any other cat5 cables to try? [07:15] none long enough, this one is brand new (same one from home) its like 25' [07:15] ah [07:16] could it be a router configuration issue? [07:16] what shoudl i look to change on the router then [07:16] routers lol [07:17] sorry I know that's not helping [07:17] i honestly don't have a clue [07:17] lthats coool. like i said - we learnt just enough to get this thing confirming transcations like 1 month ago, and its been down for 1 day [07:18] the rig doesnt show up on the router DHCP list i just checjked [07:18] woudl it be worthwhiel setting up a reserved ip and mac for this cpu on the router? [07:19] i don't see the point in not trying. you've only got time to lose [07:19] if dhcp isn't working, that might do the trick [07:21] what is the relvant porton of 169.254 [07:22] 5*169.254.5.190/16 [07:22] thats the inet but when i enter it all in its too long and wont validate [07:23] you need just the ip address? [07:24] yeah and mac (which i have) it wont accept that 169.254.5.190/16 ...this seems way too complicated for a wired connection [07:25] the ip out of that is just '169.254.5.190' [07:25] don't know what the *5 and / is for [07:25] sorry, i'm not much help [07:25] yeah typo on the 5, but not the /.... regardless doesnt work [07:26] don't know what the /16 means [07:27] i am attempting to the add the mac adress as an accepted deivce on the network [07:27] ah [07:27] do you know the mac address? [07:28] yes i inputted on the router page to allow certain mac addrss...now restarting rig [07:29] I'm about to hop off here, I've gotta get some sleep, but good luck! [07:29] none of this works. i am shuttign this dowsn [07:29] thanks everyone.............. [07:29] :( sorry [07:30] yes sorry for soemthing not mor einteresting. stay safe everyone [07:54] Hello there! I tried to install Xubuntu and installation was successful but when OS started it was stuck blue Xubuntu loading screen. [08:02] Someus, sounds like something didnt install right [08:04] Why? [08:04] I did everything as i should ;) [08:08] what command do I use to start firefox with a 5 second delay?? I want it to start every time I boot, so I added it to the startup menu. But, it starts so quickly, that it can't find the server(s), so none of the pages load. [08:09] ROPA: "sleep 5; firefox" [08:11] us{0gb I tried a pretty similar command and it prevented firefox from starting at all....command I tried was sleep 5 && firefox. I'll try the command you gave. [08:12] It would work on the command line, but I don't know if it would work in autostart. If not, let me know; I have a hack to make it work. [08:14] HI, can someone direct me to whrer you can find the meinimum requirements of Xubuntu? [08:14] where* minimum* [08:15] Hmm. Searching .... [08:15] thanks [08:15] I probably asked this a while back... [08:15] as xezno or greenroarer [08:15] (many usernames I have) [08:15] 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. [08:16] http://xubuntu.org/getxubuntu/ [08:16] Thanks [08:16] Any time. [08:16] looks like i have enough then. [08:16] (256,mb) === xubuntu909 is now known as xezn === xezn is now known as xezno [08:17] Barely. Lubuntu or Trisquel Mini might run better for you if Xubuntu is too slow. [08:18] Though they use LXDE, which is nowhere near as nice as Xfce. [08:18] OK. I have a linux distro with xfce and it runs fine, just looking for somethingbubuntu-based as a new refreshment thing [08:18] I havr used LXDE on my PI as well before [08:19] (very bland) [08:19] Okay, good. [08:19] Yeah, bland and lacking features. [08:19] I use the debian testing at the moment [08:19] very buggy [08:19] If Xfce works fine, I'd never recommend LXDE. [08:19] and lxde is meant to have that, BTW [08:20] nope. not going toblxde. [08:20] Yeah, it's meant to be that way, but that doesn't mean I like it. [08:20] to lxde* [08:20] To be HONEST, i prefer kde, but it wont run on that old thing [08:21] KDE overwhelms me with all its graphical effects. It's more than I can take. [08:21] still, could install xubuntu on ky other pc [08:21] my* [08:22] I prefer unity [08:22] ROPA: Did it work? If not, I have a hack to *make* it work. [08:22] did what work? [08:22] (just interested) [08:22] I like hacks [08:23] and making things work [08:23] xezno: An attempt to make Firefox wait five seconds before autostarting. [08:23] aka The sims 2 in 256mb ram [08:23] ahhh [08:23] us{0gb No, didn't work, that kept firefox from starting at all! [08:23] why? mine takes 20 seconds. [08:24] i use internet explorer [08:24] I have a way. First, go to your home directory. Create a directory there called "bin". [08:24] xenzo firefox starts for me in about 1 second, the tabs take 3 or 4 seconds to load..... [08:24] lol you lot believed that! [08:24] In the directory, add a text file. Name it anything that is not a command name. [08:25] yeah it takes 2 seconds to load then go fetch some cofee then itll be done [08:25] In the file, add these three lines: [08:25] (name it bdhcueb hirn,) [08:25] #!/bin/sh [08:25] with a sh extension [08:25] sleep 5 [08:25] firefox [08:25] wow that will work [08:25] save it [08:25] chmod +x it [08:26] and run it in the directory firefox is in. [08:26] Then in the auto start menu, change the command to the name of the file (including extension, if there is an extension). [08:26] Also, make the file executable. [08:26] chmod [08:26] xenzo Im serious, a solid state drive works wonders. Before the solid state drive there was plenty of time for the woreless to begin to work........... [08:26] an ssd? [08:27] before i buy one what does it actually do [08:28] ooh ubuntu pastebin 0-0 [08:28] xenzo it loads data 100 times faster than a mechanical hard drive............and uses less power and does not need defrag. [08:28] whoooooa [08:28] so.. [08:29] 4gb ram + an ssd + 3ghz of processor [08:29] is? [08:29] Ext4 doesn't need to defrag on HDD or SSD. THat's not an SSD feature. [08:29] xenzo check out google comments and on tomshardware.com............search for ssd. [08:29] ok [08:29] yhanks [08:29] thabks [08:29] ARGHHH thanks* [08:29] Defraging is an issue on poorly implemented file systems such as FAT and NTFS. [08:30] ext4... I like that fs. [08:30] us{0gb ok, many thanks.............I have the info but will mess with it in the AM. [08:30] ehat about btrfs [08:30] what+ [08:30] I think it's what Xubuntu uses. I'd check, but I'm not on Xubuntu. [08:30] ** [08:30] Okay, good luck ROPA! [08:30] erm... when you partition you choose the file sustem [08:30] system* [08:31] And good luck, ROPA! [08:31] us{0gb yes, ur right-but ssd doesn't care where the data is....if it's not sequential, it runs a very tiny bit slower in random access more......I love mine! [08:31] Back when I did use Xubuntu, the installer didn't let me choose what file system to use. [08:31] oh, it does in gparted when you are partitioning [08:32] us{0gb xenzo thanks to you both, have a great day.yes, ur right-but ssd doesn't care where the data is....if it's not sequential, it runs a very tiny bit slower in random access more......I love mine! [08:32] Hmm. Very interesting, ROPA. [08:32] hmm... [08:32] so defragging could speed it up by like a few milliseconds? [08:32] us{0gb I can copy a 12 GB partition in 16 seconds. [08:33] wow it takes me 10mins [08:33] on my laptop thing from 2003. [08:33] Oh, woww. [08:33] usually though [08:33] *wow [08:33] i havent tried it [08:34] but on my other computer probably 20-30 secons [08:34] seconds* [08:34] xenzo for the older vintage cpu, it won't work as well.............and I'm not sure you can get an IDE type ssd........ [08:34] 1.333GHz isnt that vintage is it? [08:34] i mean, cmon! [08:35] (im not getting an ssd for that thing [08:35] no point) [08:35] xenzo yes, that's definately vintage. [08:35] sooow so 1.6ghz is vintage [08:35] wow* [08:36] xenzo GL, I gotta go sleep some before work!!! take care. [08:36] it runs minecraft at 60fps on high settings... [08:36] you too! thanks! have a nice day. [08:37] bye peeps [09:09] I got banned from #ubunyu how can i be unbanned? [09:27] Merry Christmas [10:24] hi i have a problem with my touchscreen on xubuntu 13.10 [11:39] sheesh [13:46] Hi, can anyone help me to install radeon hd drivers in my notebook? [13:47] Notebook: hp g62 GPU: radeon hd 5470 / intel graphic [13:47] I've tried it in many ways but just doesn't work [13:51] xubuntu287, ask in #ubuntu if no answer here [13:57] xubuntu287, what doesn't work? no display? [14:45] hi, I just came here a while ago asking for help with my graphics card driver ATI Mobility 5470 in my HP G62 Notebook [14:45] i just installed the prop driver [14:46] and now i have a command line on boot [14:46] in a black screen, it asks for my login [14:47] i do it and I don't know what else to do, can somebody help me pls? [14:47] xubuntu826, come back to #ubuntu with this [14:48] ok thanks [15:54] Hello my friend! I have already installed the last version of xubuntu and i have some problem with the audio. I can't lissen clearly the audio file and audio in internet. The sound stutters. thank you [15:59] xubuntu222: what are the specs of the system? what are you trying to play? and how?.. i would use a known good and simple file in a known good player, such as VLC, and test [15:59] does the video playback aslo stutter xubuntu222 ? [16:00] also.. this can help [16:00] !audio [16:00] If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. [16:00] also* [16:01] the "internet playback" is likely flash related.. i would troubleshoot it seperately.. i use the chrome browser, since it has a more recent and supported version of flash than is supplied to linux by the vendor [16:02] i have seen the chromium browser crashing on me lately [16:03] chromium can use the flash player from chrome.. but, i am referencing the chrome browser and not chromium.. by default, chromium will use the older flash player.. its easy to troubleshoot and see if this is the issue or not [16:03] im not saying chrome is better or something one should use.. just that factually, it has a newer supported flash version [16:04] so i can install chrome instead then [16:06] crome [16:06] so now i try to install [16:06] xubuntu222: install what? [16:06] and chrome sorry [16:06] xubuntu222: chrome will not fix your stand alone audio issues.. [16:06] xubuntu222: you will text something simple, like an ogg file.. with vlc [16:08] so what i have to do? when i play audio in internet it don't work good. the audio part but then feels jerky [16:09] sorry for my english i'm trying to whrite the better that i can [16:09] xubuntu222: so, otherwise, audio is fine? its *only* in the web browser? in flash? if so, you can try the chrome browser [16:09] http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ is what i reference [16:09] is in all the audio file, with mozilla vlc and [16:09] player [16:10] i have already install it [16:11] but i have the same problem [16:11] sudo killall pulseaudio [16:11] sudo pulseaudio --system=1 --daemonize [16:11] Close and re-open chromium [16:11] i read this on the ubuntu pages [16:12] someone is stating that by killing the process and restarting it..that the problem may go away? [16:12] xubuntu222: what are the specs of this system? [16:12] i'm sorry but what are specs? [16:13] i try! [16:13] xubuntu222: what are the system specifications... such as "i have 2 gigabytes of ram".. etc [16:16] èthe computer is an aspire one za3 and the is xubuntu (the last one) 32 bit [16:19] xubuntu222: are you up to date with upgrades? [16:19] i have do the upgrades [16:20] i have install xubuntu now [16:20] and ubuntu 12.04 but i had the same problem [16:21] Hey guys, is there some way I can get some visual feedback about which workspace I'm currently on (like Ubuntu) ?? [16:21] xubuntu222: xubuntu *is* ubuntu.. so, yes, they will share the same support issues [16:21] ideally a semi-transparent overlay that states the workspace name [16:21] xubuntu222: lubuntu doesnt ship with pulse, so, you could try that live and see if the performance is "better".. or, just try the latest 13.10 of xubuntu live and see [16:22] siyfion: i would put a workspace switcher in the panel/tray.. should give the feedback you are looking for.. [16:22] * ObrienDave uses workspace switcher to see which one he's on [16:22] meh.. I like my bars minimal ;) [16:23] Why have something on the screen 100% of the time taking up space (4 workspaces) when you only really need to know where you "are" [16:23] siyfion: you could make a panel that is transparent, that behaves as you want above [16:23] holstein: Hmmm, okay [16:24] I just thought the Ubuntu one might be a package that can be installed [16:24] siyfion: autohide puts it out of the way, and you make it look as you please [16:24] But I guess it's part of unity [16:24] siyfion: i have had that in simple environments, like lxde.. there should be popup feedback, if you like [16:25] siyfion: having messed about with it, i prefer the workspace switcher [16:26] holstein: Well i've just created a horizontal panel, quite large in the center of the screen, but how would I go about hiding / unhiding it [16:27] siyfion: i right click and select "hide" from the properties menu [16:31] hello! i have a problem with my computer. I have already install the last version of xubuntu 32 bit in an aspire one with 2 gb of ram. i have already do the upgrades and above dowload but i have problem with audio file. for exples when i try to watch a video on web (or with vlc) i cam watch clearly the video but audio stutters. thank you for your time.
