ubottuxubuntu945: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com/ or http://ubuntuforums.org/ or http://askubuntu.com/02:35
xubuntu945maybe you should help me then!02:36
Azelphurxubuntu945: maybe you should stop being rude and read what was said02:36
xubuntu945I wasnt being rude ok?02:36
bazhangxubuntu945, there's no root account02:37
xubuntu945im just pissed because i cant do nothing on my pc without root access the admin account cant be logged into just the guest02:37
bazhangxubuntu945, unless you explicitly enable it02:37
xubuntu945the account that has sudo doesnt work and on the guest i type sudo i have no perm02:37
bazhang!work | xubuntu94502:38
ubottuxubuntu945: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.02:38
xubuntu945i said why it doesnt work02:38
bazhangwhy not02:39
xubuntu945how would i know why it doesnt work i told you what it does thats why i came here for support and how to fix it02:39
Azelphurxubuntu945: is this a fresh install? did you do something that caused the issue?02:39

xubuntu037hello.03:49
cubed_roothey xubuntu03703:49
xubuntu037Can anyone help a first time user install xubuntu?03:49
cfhowlett!install|xubuntu037,03:49
ubottuxubuntu037,: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - See also !automate03:49
cubed_rootxubuntu037: what are you thinkng of installing it on?03:51
xubuntu037I've used a USB drive to install. Xubuntu is up and running, however when I update the software, it downloads, "installs" but when I reboot, I'm on the same version03:51
cubed_rootit's pretty straightforward on a pc, mac's are pretty tough03:51
cubed_rooti think those are just minor updates03:51
cubed_rootthe version (eg 12.03) doesn't change i believe03:52
xubuntu037im on 13.1003:52
cubed_root... until there's a major update03:52
cubed_rootyea, i think it will be 13.10 for a few months03:52
cubed_rootif i'm wrong someone please chime in but i think new releases are every 6 months?03:52
xubuntu037so, each time I click suofware updater, its a new package that's downloading?03:53
xubuntu037software03:53
holsteinxubuntu037: you dont get a new version that way.. thats just updates to your current packages.. and not necessarily the most recent versions available03:53
cubed_rootthat popup that says it has some updates? (i usually see firefox and a few other apps in there)03:53
cfhowlettcubed_root, correctomundo - but you COULD just choose the Long Term Support version for 5 years of support03:53
cubed_rootthanks cfhowlett03:53
xubuntu037sorry for the dumb question, i think its just updating more stuff. Thanks for the input!03:54
holsteinxubuntu037: *you* are updating "stuff", using the update tool03:55
xubuntu037well, technically its doing it but hey semantics...03:56
cubed_rootxubuntu037: i had the same question 3 weeks ago03:56
holsteinxubuntu037: that was a technical rephrasing.. you have instigated the upate03:56
holsteinupdate*03:56
xubuntu037yo comprendo. I was just poking you. Im just thankful for someone to answer my questions03:57
cubed_rootare there any particularly active linux rooms out there?04:04
holsteincubed_root: xubuntu is using the linux kernel.. so, this channel comes to mind.. #ubuntu would be more active.. there are a few more general linux channels on freenode and other servers04:05
cubed_rootthanks holstein, yea this room is pretty active, but it sometimes goes quiet for awhile.  maybe it's considered pretty active in comparison.  it's a lot better than some of the other rooms i've been in.04:07
holsteincubed_root: the offtopic channels might be more active for just chatting.. like #xubuntu-offtopic or the #ubuntu-offtopic one04:08
cubed_rootthanks holstein04:11
cubed_rootwill check 'em out04:11
xubuntu037So, I've downloaded updates twice now... they've been exactly the same size. the items "installed" are all the same items. Ideas?04:54
xubuntu037i would think that if its installed, that it wouldn't want to update it again04:55
cfhowlettxubuntu037, I suspect you did NOT in fact install the first time ... unless you did some strange kind of reinstall updates command04:56
xubuntu037Well, I clicked the install now... it takes over from there, then asks for reboot (button doesn't work so I sudo reboot)05:04
xubuntu037check for updates again and same things are there to install05:04
cfhowlettxubuntu037, are you installed to the HDD or what?05:05
xubuntu037I've just installed from a 16gb thumb drive, configured as an install disk05:06
xubuntu037I have another 16gb thumb drive as well05:06
cfhowlettxubuntu037, and you're now booting from the HDD - NOT the thumb?05:06
xubuntu037I used Unetbootin on one USB drive as installation disk to install on second usb drive. That drive is now booting the system05:13
cfhowlett!persistence|xubuntu037,05:15
ubottuxubuntu037,: To have some persistent storage when using a Live CD, follow the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDPersistence05:15
cfhowlettxubuntu037, when you boot the USB, you're running a live cd session.  permanent updates are not possible.   you need to install with the persistence option as per the link above05:16
xubuntu037I love this chat room. Thank you for the help!!!05:17

henrylinuxI have a relatively high CPU load14:14
henrylinuxalthough it's all good on Youtube14:15
=== casual_boot_ is now known as casual_boot
baizonhenrylinux: it is because twitch is using flash14:38
baizonflash droped linux support, so no acceleration14:39
baizonand if you watch commercials its like watching 3 youtube video on 1080p, so it lags :(14:39
Sysitwitch in general often doesn't seem to work very well14:39

henrylinuxyoutube shows me those intel "stats for nerds"14:41
baizonit worked for mplayer, but not flash sites14:41
henrylinuxbut Twitch does not14:41
henrylinuxbaizon, are you saying Twitch might be offering only the newer, unsupported, flash version?14:42

AleksanderI'd like to install Ubuntu 13.10 on a LUKS/LVM prepared by myself, is there a simple way to configure newly-installed kernel to decrypt the root partition during boot?20:11
Unit193cryptsetup in the initramfs?20:12
AleksanderUnit193, will it automatically create crypttab etc?20:12
Unit193"Prepared by myself" before getting to the installer?  The installer supports creating encrypted LVMs.20:13
AleksanderUnit193, okay, but I'd like to have one partition more than xUbuntu on my LVM20:14
Aleksanderano no swap20:14
Unit193OK, well you can do custom partitions in the installer, should be able to do custom+LUKS.  I've not any with custom partitions and cryptsetup myself, but I don't see why not.20:16

iami am currently trying to install xubuntu 13.10 on my netbook. I already have windows, so i made a partition on my hard drive to install xubuntu on21:44
iamwhen i go to other installation type, the partiton doesn't show up21:44

iamhow do i fix this?21:46

iamthere's only the option to "Erase disk and install xubuntu" and "Something else"21:47
iami clicked something else, but the separate partitions aren't appearing21:47

iamhmmmmmm22:20
iamit says there are 4 hard drive disks22:21

iamLocal Disk C: is 148GB and has 1.3GB left, and Local Disk G: is 73GB and has 73gb free22:22
iamcould the space left on local disk C: be affecting xubuntu?22:22

Sysidid you (accidentally) convert your disc to dynamic disk or gpt?22:23
iami'm not sure, how do i check?22:24

gryNavz: hi23:50
gryNavz: please don't disappear23:50
gryhm, wonder what fn+f4 did to him23:51
knomeiam, it looks like you don't have any partitions, or even a partition table, created23:51
iamknome, looks can be deceiving ;)23:51
iamit senses everything on windows 723:51
knomeiam, you created an NTFS parition for your linux operating system?23:52
iamknome, i assumed i could format it later23:53
iamit was easier at the time23:53
knomeit's possible the installer doesn't recognise that partition23:54
iamhmm... so the partition is the whole problem?23:54
knomeit is possible. do you have any data on the disk that needs saving?23:55
iami have windows 7 on it, so yes23:55
iami'm going to boot to windows 7 now and look around23:55
knomeiam, have you tried installing via the "try xubuntu" -mode?23:56
iamknome, yes. in Gparted it shows my entire hard drive as unallocated23:57
knomeiam, i've no idea if it's installed by default, but you could make sure to install the package ntfs-3g if that had *any* effect on showing the partitions23:57
iamknome, first i'll try re-joining the partition with my main partition23:58
iami think it was working before i partitioned it23:58
