| IdleOne | zack_: for help with windows you probably want to be asking in ##windows | 00:56 |

| userbob2 | I was installing virtualbox on xubuntu with apt-get. Just few days ago i notice (apt-get install virtualbox -v) that version of virtualbox is 3.2. When the latest version is 4.3.6 ? Why is that ? | 07:00 |
| cfhowlett | userbob2, there are at least 2 versions of virtualbox - the one in the repos which may / may not be the very latest and the one you download from oracle . | 07:01 |
| userbob2 | i understand it can't be very latest, but that version in repos is very very old... | 07:02 |
| userbob2 | i dont know few years probably ... | 07:03 |
| cfhowlett | userbob2, stuff enters the repos at different times. for the very latest packages, run apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade and that will usually pull the most recent versions from the available repos | 07:04 |
| userbob2 | upgrade vs dist-upgrade not the same ? | 07:05 |
| userbob2 | i doing apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade | 07:05 |
| bazhang | !dist-upgrade | userbob2 | 07:08 |
| ubottu | userbob2: A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. | 07:08 |
| userbob2 | i know that | 07:09 |
| userbob2 | but it is difference between upgrade and dist-upgrade ? | 07:09 |
| bazhang | yes | 07:09 |
| bazhang | see above | 07:10 |
| userbob2 | !dist-upgrade | 07:11 |
| ubottu | A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. | 07:11 |
| userbob2 | ok | 07:11 |
| userbob2 | !upgrade | 07:11 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 07:11 |
| bazhang | !info virtualbox | 07:11 |
| userbob2 | thanks i look at that | 07:11 |
| ubottu | virtualbox (source: virtualbox): x86 virtualization solution - base binaries. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 4.2.16-dfsg-3 (saucy), package size 13831 kB, installed size 50333 kB | 07:11 |
| bazhang | Version 4.2.16 <----- userbob2 | 07:12 |
| userbob2 | strange | 07:13 |
| userbob2 | i hope it not difference if i use my country mirrors for update :D ? | 07:14 |
| bazhang | what mirror | 07:14 |
| bazhang | what version of xubuntu are you on | 07:15 |

| Unit193 | It's generated on install, do you have a /etc/apt/sources.list.save ? | 07:36 |

| xubuntu466 | Hello? | 08:22 |
| mapps | hi xubuntu466 | 08:22 |
| xubuntu466 | Hi. I'm having problems with installing Xubuntu on an old computer | 08:22 |
| mapps | whats going wrong pal | 08:23 |
| xubuntu466 | I have made a key with Xubuntu 13.10 with "linux live usb creator". | 08:24 |
| xubuntu466 | I boot it from the computer | 08:24 |
| mapps | yep | 08:24 |
| xubuntu466 | The screen says "automatic boot in 1,2,3,4,5 seconds" | 08:24 |
| xubuntu466 | and then a list appears, and it just stands like that | 08:25 |
| mapps | ok | 08:26 |
| mapps | press enter | 08:26 |
| mapps | the list has options ya? | 08:26 |
| xubuntu466 | no it's just a kind of log | 08:26 |
| xubuntu466 | no options. nothing hapenes when i press the keyboard | 08:27 |
| mapps | hm | 08:27 |
| mapps | any chance of a bit more info of what this list says | 08:27 |
| xubuntu466 | There is a lot. | 08:27 |
| mapps | hm | 08:28 |
| mapps | any chance u can provide a link or image | 08:28 |
| mapps | so i can see | 08:28 |
| mapps | anything off google or whatever | 08:28 |
| xubuntu466 | Yes. just a sec | 08:28 |
| xubuntu466 | http://i.imgur.com/ZSRmjbV.jpg | 08:31 |
| mapps | thanks | 08:32 |
| mapps | sec | 08:32 |
| xubuntu466 | :9 | 08:32 |
| xubuntu466 | *:) | 08:32 |
| mapps | ahh ok so thats when its booting | 08:32 |
| mapps | 2sec | 08:32 |
| mapps | whats the las thing it says | 08:32 |
| xubuntu466 | yes, after i have selected the flash drive as the boot device | 08:32 |
| mapps | yea | 08:32 |
| xubuntu466 | "...stepping: 04)" | 08:33 |
| mapps | looking now:D | 08:35 |
| xubuntu466 | Find out anything? :) Thank you for helping. | 08:56 |
| mapps | hey sorry im a bit stumped it just stop at step04? | 08:58 |
| xubuntu466 | yes | 08:59 |
| mapps | hmn# | 08:59 |
| xubuntu466 | can it be the cpu? | 08:59 |
| xubuntu466 | or the ram? | 08:59 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | Well Stepping 04 is part of the description of the cpu. | 09:03 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | I don't know if it's relevant to the problem. | 09:03 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | You would have to know what's happening in that moment. | 09:03 |
| xubuntu466 | So. Any ideas of what I can do? Is there anything I can do in the BIOS to make it work? Or should i run another version of linux? | 09:05 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | did you try booting with nomodeset? | 09:07 |
| mapps | what about that noacpi? i remember i had to use that once | 09:07 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | Is this a P4/Celeron Socket 478? | 09:07 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | One option at a time. | 09:07 |
| xubuntu466 | How do i boot with nomodeset? | 09:07 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | if you mix options now, you won't know what works and what doesn't. | 09:07 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | is this a live session or a full install? | 09:08 |
| xubuntu466 | full install | 09:08 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | when the computer first boots, hold shift after the bios posts. | 09:09 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | You should be able to get the grub menu. | 09:09 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | You can add and edit options there. | 09:09 |
| xubuntu466 | yes. there now | 09:09 |
| mapps | yea | 09:10 |
| mapps | after you can type them | 09:11 |
| xubuntu466 | Now i disabled acpi, and it looks like it's working. There is a blank screen with: "Xubuntu 13.10" and blinking dots beneath. | 09:37 |
| xubuntu466 | The dots are just blinking, and nothing happens | 09:38 |
| xubuntu466 | NOW IT WORKS! | 09:39 |
| Unit193 | \o/ | 09:40 |
| xubuntu466 | Thank you for your help :) | 09:40 |
| mapps | hey | 10:00 |
| mapps | wait | 10:00 |
| mapps | i said maybe it was noacpi :P | 10:00 |
| mapps | ages back | 10:00 |
| mapps | :P | 10:00 |

| karl_ | hi all | 13:38 |
| karl_ | I am using xubuntu 13,04, no more support so I have told it via software updater to upgrade me to 13.10 . Is there a way to see if it is working? | 13:39 |
| cfhowlett | karl_, see if WHAT is working? | 13:42 |
| karl_ | if the upgrade is working. The 13.04 software updater said it was no longer supported. Asked me if I wanted to upgrade, I clicked upgrade, then it just went off and I do not know if it is working now | 13:43 |
| cfhowlett | karl_, open a terminal and run lsb_release -a that'll tell you the current version | 13:44 |
| karl_ | raring 13.04 | 13:45 |
| cfhowlett | !upgrade|karl_, | 13:46 |
| ubottu | karl_,: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 13:46 |
| karl_ | upgrade does not seem to be supported anymore | 13:52 |
| karl_ | but xubuntu says it is, oh well | 13:53 |
| cfhowlett | karl_, come to the #ubuntu channel and ask how to upgrade an end of life release. I've never done and don't know how ... | 13:54 |
| cfhowlett | karl_, or you could download the ISO and clean install - I'd recommend 12.04 as it's LTS and the new LTS drops in April. | 13:55 |
| karl_ | for reference sudo do-release-upgrade did the trick | 13:59 |
| cfhowlett | karl_, I knew there was a trick to somewhere ... | 13:59 |
| DGR | Hi guys. It appears HDMI output is broken in 13.10, has anyone found a workaround? (laptop) | 15:32 |
| DGR | sorry. session timed out. I was asking if anyone has a workaround or fix for the broken HDMI output in 13.10? Thank you. | 15:43 |
| baizon | DGR: how is it broken? | 15:57 |
| baizon | it works for me | 15:58 |
| DGR | When an HDMI cable is plugged in and I hit Fn+F7 I don't get the dialog to share my desktop anymore | 16:09 |
| DGR | The kernel is seeing the HDMI device as always disconnected. | 16:09 |

| Northern | Installing xubuntu on my amd athlon. Installation is taking way longer than Debian or Ubuntu/kuduntu. Is this normal? | 16:38 |
| kRush | define way longer, I bet you can make debian install for quite a while.. but should be about the same as u/k | 17:44 |
| dickatirc | there is tty output in classic xubuntu installer, so its possible to see where it get stucked | 18:14 |
| peyam | hi | 18:59 |
| peyam | The option "softwares & updates " is gone from setting manager | 18:59 |

| peyam | thank brainwash :) | 19:02 |
| Dan_D | Hi there, got a slight issue. On the 'start menu' (button at top left) there is a section called 'Other'. It contains launchers that lead to programs I have deleted. How do I get rid of them? They do not show up in the settings manager! | 19:04 |
| Dan_D | And speaking of which, how do I generally delete launchers, not from the menu, but from the system generally, so they do not appear in things like the Open With application list when opening new file types | 19:04 |
| brainwash | 1) check ~/.local/share/applications/ | 19:05 |
| brainwash | 2) delete the application | 19:05 |
| Dan_D | How do I get to .local? | 19:05 |
| brainwash | press ctrl + h | 19:06 |
| Dan_D | Nothing changed, except hidden files became hidden again | 19:06 |
| brainwash | so there is no .local folder in your home folder? | 19:06 |
| Dan_D | Oh, in the home folder? | 19:06 |
| brainwash | yes | 19:07 |
| Dan_D | Got it | 19:07 |
| brainwash | ~ means home folder | 19:07 |
| Dan_D | So, delete all unwanted launchers? | 19:07 |
| brainwash | the one you don't need anymore | 19:07 |
| Dan_D | I can only see some | 19:07 |
| Dan_D | All the ones I want to get rid of are not there | 19:07 |
| Dan_D | Also, have to go to dinner now, be back soon | 19:08 |
| brainwash | ok | 19:08 |
| brainwash | Dan_D: you might also want to check /usr/share/applications/ which contains the system wide launchers (also the place to look if you don't actually want to delete any application -> question 2) | 19:10 |
| === pcwhite is now known as PaulW2U | ||
| Dan_D | Ah, back. Thanks brainwash! | 19:36 |

| taza | Does Xubuntu 13.10 have Fake-PAE installer that doesn't require wizardry? | 20:35 |
| taza | +a | 20:36 |
| bekks | Whats "Fake-PAE"? | 20:36 |
| taza | Uh, it's a long story. If you know the answer, you can understand the question. | 20:37 |
| taza | tl;dr It's support for processors that have quirky feature support flags | 20:37 |
| Dan_D | How do I open a .deb via command line, if even possible? | 21:28 |
| bekks | Dan_D: Open it to do what? | 21:28 |
| Dan_D | Make it install whatever program it is for | 21:28 |
| Dan_D | Rather thn using the softa | 21:29 |
| Dan_D | *software centre to open it | 21:29 |
| bekks | apt-get install gimp -- that would install gimp from commandline, e.g. | 21:29 |
| Dan_D | Ok | 21:29 |
| cloudbender | If I reinstall, will xubuntu detect my second monitor ? | 21:29 |
| Pici | *sudo | 21:29 |
| bekks | yeah, sudo apt-get... | 21:29 |
| Dan_D | So sudo apt-get install name-of-.deb | 21:30 |
| bekks | Dan_D: No. For installing a plain deb file, use sudo dpkg -i name.deb | 21:30 |
| Dan_D | AH, ok, thanks! | 21:30 |
| xubuntu597 | how can i uninstall plugin icetea? i have removed to ubuntu software center | 21:42 |
| bazhang | apt-cache search iced | 21:43 |
| bazhang | icedtea-plugin | 21:43 |
| bazhang | sudo apt-get remove packagename | 21:44 |
| xubuntu597 | does not work | 21:47 |
| bazhang | what is the error | 21:47 |
| xubuntu597 | misses icetea | 21:48 |
| cloudbender | Is there a way to tell xubuntu to detect a second monitor ? | 21:50 |
| xubuntu597 | web browser plugin to execute java applet | 21:50 |
| cloudbender | No takers ? | 21:52 |
| xubuntu597 | Can not find the package packagename | 21:52 |
| bazhang | you use the actual package name, not "packagename" | 21:53 |
| knome | cloudbender, if you aren't afraid of command line, check 'xrandr -q' | 21:53 |
| bazhang | in this case it's icedtea-plugin | 21:53 |
| xubuntu597 | a ok sorry | 21:54 |
| taza | So, is there a non-wizard way to install Xubuntu on a no-PAE laptop? | 21:54 |
| taza | Well, yes-PAE no-PAE-flag laptop, anyway | 21:54 |
| xubuntu597 | can not find the packege icetea-plugin | 21:55 |
| knome | xubuntu597, it's icedtea-plugin. | 21:55 |
| Sysi | taza: I think 12.04 doesn't have pae by default | 21:55 |
| xubuntu597 | ops sorry | 21:55 |
| knome | xubuntu597, i would suggest to reinstall ubuntu software center to handle your packages | 21:55 |
| taza | 12.04 doesn't, but I'd like a newer version | 21:56 |
| xubuntu597 | sorry but someone speak italian? | 21:56 |
| knome | taza, you can upgrade to 14.04 from 12.04 in april | 21:56 |
| taza | knome: 14.04 will have native no-PAE? | 21:56 |
| knome | !it | xubuntu597 | 21:56 |
| ubottu | xubuntu597: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (per entrare, scrivi « /join #ubuntu-it » senza virgolette) | 21:57 |
| taza | Well, fake-PAE | 21:57 |
| knome | taza, i would imagine there is something that allows you to run it | 21:57 |
| cloudbender | knome thanks | 21:57 |
| knome | taza, especially since you have processor that actually supports PAE | 21:57 |
| knome | taza, there was some really simple fix for that (which should work for most of those machines), basically just add the word "pae" in /proc/cpuinfo (iirc) | 21:58 |
| cloudbender | ... and I suppose man xandr might not hurt either :) | 21:58 |
| taza | knome: So, do you actually know anything regarding 14.04 and fake-PAE? | 21:58 |
| knome | taza, Unit193 can confirm/tell you more about it | 21:58 |
| Unit193 | >_> | 21:58 |
| knome | cloudbender, or arandr, if you prefer a GUI | 21:58 |
| cloudbender | k tnx | 21:58 |
| xubuntu597 | sorry how can i get root mode? | 21:58 |
| taza | Because you sound like you're just half-remembering things that may or may not be accurate. | 21:58 |
| knome | taza, i don't have exact information (yet). | 21:58 |

| knome | taza, talk with Unit193. :) | 21:59 |
| Unit193 | knome: It's a bit hacky, so I've stayed away from it (also only have PAE computers) nothing in the official repo. | 21:59 |
| knome | Unit193, i'm aware of that, but since it might be the only option for those people... | 21:59 |
| taza | So the tl;dr is "ignore everything knome has just said, and to be safe, put him on ignore". Got it. | 21:59 |
| bazhang | taza, please dont do that | 22:00 |
| taza | Anyway. | 22:00 |
| taza | Unit193: I'm aware of the Fake-PAE trickery and I also know how hard it is to install an OS doing it. | 22:00 |
| knome | taza, i would you to reconsider your attitude. thanks. | 22:00 |
| taza | That's why I would like a non-wizard way of doing it | 22:00 |
| bazhang | discussion of 14.04 is in #ubuntu+1 taza not here | 22:01 |
| taza | Well I actually want to install 13.10 | 22:01 |
| xubuntu597 | i have romeved!.... i think | 22:02 |
| taza | But since it's clear that you're more concerned with regular egos than with actually, y'know, helping people or discussing technology, I don't think I'll benefit from being here anyway. | 22:03 |
| cloudbender | well I apt-got ARandR but it still does not detect the second monitor | 22:11 |
| cloudbender | I'll try a fresh install | 22:11 |
| xubuntu248 | Hi, I using 14.04 daily build, my laptop touchpad is being detected as a pointer "evdev pointer catchall" InputClass, with the result that there is no multitouch. I tried commenting that class out hoping that it would default to the touchpad but then the touchpad was non functional. Any suggestions ? | 22:16 |
| bazhang | !14.04 | xubuntu248 | 22:23 |

| xubuntu951 | Hello. I'm new to all this. How do I enable Javascript or at least add exceptions for some websites | 23:25 |
| knome | xubuntu951, javascript should be enabled by default on firefox on xubuntu | 23:27 |
| xubuntu951 | hmm, okay. I thought so. This one website is giving me an error | 23:27 |
| xubuntu951 | thank you | 23:27 |
| Unit193 | xubuntu951: What site? | 23:28 |
| Unit193 | (And I can check it out, you may need some extra plugin or something.) | 23:28 |
| xubuntu951 | it's a devry website | 23:28 |
| xubuntu951 | my.devry.edu | 23:29 |
| xubuntu951 | could I get those plug-ins from the Ubuntu software center? | 23:30 |
| Unit193 | xubuntu951: You need java. | 23:30 |
| Unit193 | icedtea-plugin should be the one. | 23:31 |
| xubuntu951 | okay, i did download that and the java website is confirming I have it. so it must be a security setting i have | 23:32 |
| xubuntu951 | Thanks for helping me out thogh :) | 23:34 |
| Unit193 | It told me that I needed java and disable popup blocker (I have java disabled in the browser for added security.) | 23:35 |
| xubuntu951 | how do i enable it? | 23:36 |
| xubuntu951 | I swear I've been through all the settings | 23:36 |
| Unit193 | about:plugins | 23:37 |
| Unit193 | Err, tools > addons > plugins | 23:38 |
| xubuntu951 | I'm getting : command not found | 23:43 |
| Unit193 | This would be in firefox, we're checking that the addon is enabled in Tools > Addons > Plugins | 23:45 |
| xubuntu951 | okay, sorry, so new to this | 23:45 |
| Unit193 | Noo problem, I'll just have slow response time, doing other stuff too. | 23:45 |
| xubuntu951 | Ahh, I appreciate your time so much. thank you, that worked it out. | 23:46 |
| Unit193 | \o/ | 23:49 |
