[03:00] added some things in the xubuntu team calendar [03:00] if anything weird pops up (like finnish events), let me know [03:00] i'm trying out lightning with thunderbird for calendar stuff [10:58] elfy, pling [10:58] elfy, 12.04.5? [11:01] bah [11:01] don't see the point personally - would prefer to get people moved to 14.04 :) [11:01] well some people can't (no PAE support) [11:03] then they really need to be thinking seriously - and a few months of extra support is probably a cushion they shouldn't rely on having [11:03] well it's not even extra support really [11:03] and it doesn't really affect existing installations [11:04] .5 is just an updated installation media [11:04] (basically) [11:04] the updates will pretty much land in 12.04 anyway for users why have a system installed [11:04] that they'd have anyway by updating? [11:04] (unless they don't update their systems, which isn't really a good idea either) [11:05] because if that's the case I really don't see the point in 3 or 4 people running round to test a point release for that [11:05] if people don't update their systems then ... [11:05] that's a fair point of view [11:05] the other fair one is that by that time, 14.04 is out [11:06] so there's no reason to choose the other LTS unless you 1) don't have PAE support 2) you have a really old machine with so low specs that it can only run 12.04 but not 14.04 [11:06] posted to the list again [11:12] * elfy is writing a thing for the blog [11:12] goodie [11:13] you haven't read the draft yet :p [11:13] hah [11:18] "That QA guy KEEPS telling us to report things" [11:49] knome - any reason why the http://xubuntu.org/contribute/ link to this channel trys to do so with Mibbit? wouldn't freenode chat be better? [12:14] knome: have a look when you've got 10 minutes [13:22] Hi New Ubuntu user here. Wish I had started using it long ago! [13:24] I have been programming for some time now but in VB6, VB.NET along with other Microshaft apps [13:24] guys i'm a bit desperate: i just lost my job. If any of you needs a web designer/php coder please send me a private msg. I can work remotely. Thanks! Here situation is really bad... [13:25] elfy: i just downloaded iso, will try later today [13:26] Damiank, I am in south Florida. Will keep my eyes and ears open down here for you and I wish you best of luck! [13:28] Mudkitty thanks! i'm in Argentina, but i can work remotely [13:28] elfy, well they are irc:// links [13:31] www.indeed.com/q-Web-Developer-l-Florida-jobs.html‎ is a good site to check out [13:32] Mudkitty thanks! [13:34] knome: yea - but is freenode allowing mibbit now? not looked for an age - at one point it didn't work [14:06] Trusty Daily appears to be unchanged from yesterday. Any point in testing? [14:06] According to zsync anyway [14:08] and looking inside the iso -- date o7 [14:09] 07 February for version 20140208 [15:38] RE Trusty Daily above -- My error -- need to use 'current' instead of 'Version' in zsync command [15:39] That is version number e.g., 20140208 [17:16] Is there a way to get a larger display resolution for xubuntu in vbox -- rebooting the vm after installation seems to default to 640.480 [17:18] schproodle, install the guest additions [17:22] knome, this one? guest additions iso image for VirtualBox from synaptic ? [17:23] schproodle, check the media menu. [17:25] knome, a 'media menu' in vbox? [17:27] schproodle, when you are running the virtual machine, you have the menu to attach/remove media, like cd-roms [17:27] schproodle, check that menu, it has an item to install the guest additions [17:27] knome, the package available from repository: virtualbox-guest-additions.iso N.B. "The guest [17:27] systems then can mount the iso and install the guest additions from there." [17:27] schproodle, that's one option, but vbox can make one more step automatically. [17:28] knome, while running, OK [17:28] you are free to do it either way, but will end up with the same result [17:31] knome, under Devices it has "Install guest additions" Host-d [17:31] that's it,. [17:31] knome. dont need the package? [17:31] schproodle, no. [17:32] okeeleedokeelee :) ... [17:32] knome, vbox has its own world eh [17:34] knome, does that need to be done for each vm? [17:34] yep. [17:34] schproodle, though it will only need to fetch the ISO once. [17:37] knome, Forgive me. What does it do? Still have low resolution. [17:37] schproodle, once you've downloaded the iso, mount it and run the VBoxLinuxAdditions.run file from the media [17:37] knome, voxaddtion cd is on the desktop [17:46] knome, Done. What needs to done next to increaser resolution. I have rebooted the vm. [17:48] schproodle, whatever you'd usually do to increase the resolution. [17:50] knome, xubuntu settings manager for display is fixed at 640x480. Must I do something in vbox? [17:51] knome, I gave the vm for video memory. [17:52] sorry, but i need to focus on something else. try asking in #vbox [17:54] knome, Thanks [18:04] dashing in and out but, schproodle - you should just be able to resize the vbox window and it will autoresize now [18:04] if it doesn't then it's not installed properly [18:12] elfy, the compilation fo the guest stuff seems to have failed -- no kernel headers [18:13] elfy, auto resize is greyed out on the vm view menu [18:13] elfy, I will try to install kernel headers eh [18:15] elfy, headers are already installed on vm running 14.04 [18:21] elfy, I suppose installation of guest additions might not be working for 14.04 [18:42] schproodle: I get the same error about headers, it still works for me in 1404, I tend to install them from /media [18:42] not really here [18:52] bbl -> [19:00] * pmjdebruijn had the whiskermenu icon going black bug [19:15] elfy, Ate some lunch. Now it works eh. ;) [19:18] pmjdebruijn: you should bump the upstream bug report :) [19:20] elfy, not autoresize but bigger default. [21:18] knome: You can also install from jockey. [22:50] https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-devel [22:51] "Xubuntu Developers does not use Launchpad." [22:51] ;) [22:51] that's not really the right team [22:51] so is this a valid package maintainer? [22:51] -dev is. [22:52] see https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-terminal [22:52] just noticed that [22:52] sure. [22:52] just a mistake probably. [22:52] should be xubuntu-dev [22:53] should it be changed? :D [22:54] probably [22:55] knome: It's because of the email, merge it into something else if you can. [22:56] seems i can't
