[00:27] can some help, Im tring to install amd-app.sh but keeps say 32bit system found [00:27] please download and install x86 package [00:27] I downloaded the 32bit linux package from amd, not sure why I am getting this error [00:28] anyone [00:32] Newbie44, did you install the 64-bit xubuntu? [00:33] no i downloaded 32 bit [00:33] right, do you have the 64-bit version of amd-app.sh? [00:34] ubuntu-12.04.4-desktop-i386.iso this is 32 bit i believe and i made sure i download 32 from amd [00:35] Newbie44, to be honest, if you aren't able to get past through simple things like this, actually being able to mine bitcoins might be a bit over your ability [00:35] Newbie44, it's been told to you before, you are probably on the way of breaking your pc [00:35] lol [00:36] Newbie44, or at least ending up with an unusable state, where you aren't able to recover it yourself [00:36] Newbie44, i'm serious. [00:37] YEs sir i realize what i may do. I am here asking for help. can u maybe suggest what i try again [00:37] Newbie44, the answer is: make sure you have the same architecture for xubuntu and the amd tool. if you did that, and it doesn't work, it's probably no good to try to force it, especially if you don't know what you are doing [00:38] ok is it ok if I delete all, and try using ubuntu , instead of xubuntu [00:39] you will end up with the same hurdles [00:39] Ok its worth a shot. [00:39] it's not really. [00:39] Im gonna redue it.thanks [00:39] So, how do I make the light-locker be the default screen lock screen & also configure it? As opposed to the xscreensaver lock screen? [00:39] i understand why it isn't, you don't understand why it is [00:40] AussieDownUnder, remove xscreensaver. [00:40] AussieDownUnder, there's a tool called light-locker-settings incoming for 14.04. [00:40] knome, so any drawbacks if I remove xscreensaver? Will I lose screen savers all together? [00:41] AussieDownUnder, yeah, the graphical ones. [00:41] knome, also I'm pretty sure I installed light-locker & ran it in a terminal but it just never worked after a restart so I gave up. [00:42] knome, so say I go remove x screen saver, how would I properly configure light-locker to take over? And not sure what you mean about the screensaver, I do want my screen to go blank after 2 minutes & the screen go into stand by, then after 5 mins the screen shuts off. Does light-locker do this. I shall go google a bit more [00:43] knome, sorry duckduckgo* I mean, google is evil. [00:43] light-locker can do that [00:43] https://launchpad.net/light-locker-settings === femguy_ is now known as femguy [00:57] AussieDownUnder, just removing xscreensaver should do it. if that doesn't work, you can try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure light-locker' [00:57] knome, gonna restart now. [01:01] knome, easier than I thought, all I had to do last time was remove the xscreensaver lol. [02:06] I assume the follow are my partitions, can some explain what these are exactly?: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=cV32bFQd [02:06] I installed xubuntu 13.10 to a 8GB flash drive [02:08] the x-gui installer didn't prompt me to select partitions [02:46] when i run ./configure --enable-scrypt --enable-opencl I get missing required libcurl dev [02:46] how do i reinstall this [02:50] anyone [02:51] ash_m, they are system partitions (on ram), nothing to worry about [02:52] ash_m, the filesystem's that do not start with a slash aren't hard drive partitions [02:52] can u give some suggestion knome [02:53] newbie44, install the development libraries. you are reading that command from a tutorial, it should also tell you what you need to install in order to get it working. [02:56] tutorial doesnt explain the dev libraries, Can I find get more info elsewhere? [02:56] newbie44, you need the libcurl development libraries. [02:57] Yes ive been searching but cant figure it out? sorry [02:58] sudo apt-cache search libcurl | grep dev [03:02] well again im stuck, With no luck [03:03] i have the lastest version of curl , [03:05] like knome said, you need libcurl development libraries [03:05] gdm should be installed on a new 13.10 install yes? [03:06] xubuntu232, nope, lightdm [03:06] sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm" gives lightdm is not installed... [03:07] installing lightdm now [03:07] xubuntu232, right, that's weird, should be installed by default [03:08] my issue is getting no desktop on login. just blank cursor blinking and no terminal access [03:08] given choice of gdm/lightdm which should i pick? [03:10] xubuntu232, lightdm is what xubuntu ships be default [03:10] xubuntu232, though i'm not sure if that's related to your issue [03:11] worth installing lightdm and checking if that fixes, though [03:11] thats what i've been reading.I was even able to edit the lightdm.conf. but still returned "lightdm not installed" [03:11] upacking lightdm now [03:15] anyone ever install mac4lin? it comes with a .sh script but no instructions. i'm just concerned it might screw up my current xubuntu & gnome environments [03:16] I do have Xubuntu 14.04 per your command you gave me and I spent quite a bit of time update/upgrade/dist-upgrade on the cli. It was awesome to watch everything go by, lol! [03:16] Unit193 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ [03:17] Alrighty. [03:18] :) [03:19] installed lightdm and rebooted still just blinking cursor? [03:21] there was a slight bug tho and I tried to put it on launchpad per the comps request but for some strange reason the pw wasn't accepted and I created a new pw but i still couldn't get on. the bug had to do with the desktop didn't load up right I belieddve what the message said, this was after all the epdate/upgrade and dist-upgrade [03:22] no blinking cursor, if you are rtalking to me [03:24] sorry about my spelling, hope you understand Unit193 [03:46] sorry for not responding knome [03:46] I wasn't paying attention to the room after awhile. [03:46] but I really appreciate the input :) [03:46] no problem [04:01] so im trying to wach a movie and every 5 minuets or so the screen locks what do i have to do to make that stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [04:01] zsw__, calm down. [04:02] i am calm what do you mean? [04:02] no need for ten exclamation marks [04:02] oh ok [04:04] so what do i do [04:05] Disable the screensaver? [04:05] i dont have a screensver [04:06] So what lock screen do you see? What software are you using? [04:07] i figure out thanks. === 14WAB6LRD is now known as dormito [04:34] Hey guys. I'm trying to install Xubuntu 13.10 on an existing fakeraid setup, and after selecting the proper partitions and telling it to install, I'm met with a prompt that's nothing but ???? [04:38] "crimen legal es diabolico; crimen ilegal es satanico. ¿donde esta el terrorista?: hay uno, es inmortal y se llama tiempo" bienvenidos: http://castroruben.com *temo_a_un_ser_sin_rival* [04:39] Enias, try #ubuntu [04:40] Most non xubuntu specific questions are better to ask there [04:40] Appreciated. [04:40] Enias: Not at a busybox prompt or such? [04:41] Nope. It's just a prompt that appears after hitting install. It's just a bunch of ???s. [04:41] Then the installer resets itself and it's right back to where it was. [04:42] Enias, did you md5sum check the ISO? [04:42] !md5sum [04:42] To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [04:43] Hmm.. I'll do that. [04:45] Huh, I figured it out. Haha. [04:45] The installer was trying to default it to a logical partition when it needed to be extended. [04:46] Corrected that and the installer continued. [04:46] Enias, nicely done! [04:46] Enias: Ubiquity or text based Debian Installer? [04:46] Ubiquity. [04:47] Let's just hope it don't nuke my raid. :P [04:51] oooo... Wait. Haha, when does ubiquity install grub? [04:51] At the end. [04:51] If I picked something else and told it where to install grub, can I perhaps change it before that point? [04:52] Or will it automatically set up a dual boot option? [04:53] hm, it failed to install grub anyway. [04:54] regardless of what I told it, it wanted to install it on /dev/sda/ which is not where it was supposed to go.. [04:54] Enias, you can select where grub goes [04:54] Enias, that is the default but you can override it [04:54] I did previously but had a second though on it's location. I had told it to install on one of the mappers it provided, but it tried to do dev/sda anyway. [04:56] If gparted is telling the truth though, xubuntu installed on the mapped partition I selected.. [04:56] So I should be able to just manually install grub still, and point it to that partition right? [04:57] *should* :) [05:11] how do i uninstall xubuntu [05:12] how do i open downloads how do i change my bios how do i check system settingfs [05:14] !install [05:14] 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 !automate [05:14] why cant i format disks why casnt i install windows 7 seems i have been hijacked [05:15] for installing windows go to #windows [05:15] and of course you weren't hijacked [05:16] i just ran my first xubuntu install without an internet connection.... anything i should be doing now that i've got it online? I'm worried that I dont have the right video card drivers [05:17] xubuntu-restricted-extras will get your video codes [05:19] i don't understand [05:20] software center: restricted extras. install. [05:20] xubuntu769: As far as Video Drivers, check in Settings Manager -> Additional Drivers [05:22] xubuntu289: Insert Windows disk, boot off of that (F10, F11, F12, Esc, etc, it varies), install? But other than that, ##windows will be your best bet, yes. [05:24] hello, and good morning from Greece! [05:24] xubuntu157, greetings [05:24] so how do i uninstall zxubuntu [05:25] thanks [05:25] xubuntu289, install windows. it'll over-write the existing OS [05:26] no it dont [05:26] i now need a medioa driver which i cant locate [05:26] I was trying a couple of days to change my cursor theme in Xbuntu (Xfce desktop) without success. It seems bugy...any ideas? [05:27] xubuntu157, *seems buggy*? [05:27] i wish i would of loaded xubuntu13.1 beside wiondows 7 [05:28] embarassed? [05:28] cfhowlett... cheers... much appreciated [05:28] its totally buggy screwed up[ bios harshly now computer freezes any ideas [05:28] hi [05:29] Is anyone else having problems with ubuntu freezing after login? [05:29] !anyone [05:29] A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. [05:29] i now have been hyjacked byxubuntu and c ant load windows 7 [05:29] xubuntu157: Settings Manager -> Appearance -> Icons [05:29] bootrepair? [05:30] my shoes are fine [05:30] nothing happens! [05:30] xubuntu289: No you haven't, from what you said you overwrote windows, so just install windows and you'll be fine (if that's indeed what you want) [05:30] xubuntu289, you have NOT been hijacked. you started an installation process without doing proper research and now you blame the OS [05:30] xubuntu157: What version? [05:31] thanks again cf... great support guys... thanks... and with my abundance of ignorance i'm sure i'll be back soon... probably very soon [05:31] I can change it here in 13.10 with no issues. [05:31] Xbuntu 13.10... [05:31] 13.1 thanks for input [05:31] xubuntu157: What icon theme? How did you install it? [05:32] burnt c d [05:32] xburn fromn friends laptop [05:33] should i download from site [05:33] Settings manager--->Appereance---->Icons---->elementary xfce [05:33] Sir_Leto: Can you explain a bit more perhaps? Logs? [05:34] How would I get these logs? it disconnects from the internet and the keyboard and mouse stop working, but the screen still animates [05:34] xubuntu157: The Elementary Xfce themes don't have a major difference, try installing tango and switching to that (some applications will need to be restarted before that'll take effect.) [05:34] I can usean older kernel [05:35] does any body out there figure i should download load xubuntu from ther e site since 13.1 i have now is buggy [05:35] xubuntu289: its not buggy here.. [05:35] xubuntu289: you should elaborate about your hardware, and the bugginess you are experiencing [05:35] xubuntu289, what you've reported doesn't suggest buggy. It suggest you're randomly doing things that cause issues [05:36] sir leto has same thing as i do [05:36] I switched to "Humanity" nothing happens either...should I reboot? [05:36] xubuntu289: then, use an older kernel [05:36] xubuntu289, use kernel 3.11.0-14-generic, that's the one that works for me right now [05:36] xubuntu289: could be something about the way a newer kernel is conflicting with your hardware configuration [05:37] xubuntu289, do you have amd graphics? [05:37] what motherboard do you have? [05:37] xubuntu157: Shouldn't have to, and I just checked, that one is a bit different. [05:37] \what should i do [05:37] use another kernel [05:37] acer aspire e500 [05:37] xubuntu289: have you booted the older kernel? i read 2 suggestions above for that.. [05:37] hmm [05:38] we have entirely different hardware but have the same issue, Unit193 I booted using an older kernel, where should I look for logs? [05:38] my bios needs upgrade apparently to sytop freezing [05:38] xubuntu289: likely not the issue [05:38] xubuntu289, wrong [05:39] this is wierd! so many efforts just to change a cursor theme...any other ideas? how to change it permanetly? [05:39] Sir_Leto: Generally in /var/log/ [05:39] xubuntu157: Curser? You said icon theme earlier. Alright, then settings manager -> Mouse [05:39] im talking about uninstalling [05:39] xubuntu289: uninstalling what? [05:40] xubuntu13.1 [05:40] xubuntu289: you dont need to uninstall any operating system.. you just wipe the partition [05:40] how [05:40] xubuntu289: xubuntu 13.10* [05:40] gpart [05:40] xubuntu289: how do you "uninstall xubuntu" ? i would just install whatever i want overtop of it.. [05:41] i tried it didnt worek [05:41] xubuntu289: you tried what and what didnt do what? [05:41] xubuntu289, this ^^^ as I suggested 10 minutes ago. We're going in circles [05:41] fu [05:41] xubuntu289: be as specific as possible for the volunteers, please [05:42] Unit193, kern.log? [05:43] Sir_Leto: xorg.log, syslog, and perhaps dmesg.0 or .1 [05:43] I didn't say icon...I said mouse. The mouse change does not work... [05:44] xubuntu157: If I switch it to the red theme, as soon as the mouse leaves that window it goes red. [05:45] It seems that doesn't take effect right away on all windows, so might want to logout and back in. [05:45] Unit193, so look through them for errors, or pastebin/dropbox them? [05:46] I'd check for errors. [05:46] Sir_Leto: If it's at bootup, you can remove the quiet splash boot options. [05:47] It freezes after automatically logging in. Technically it's not frozen because the items in my panels are still animating and the system responds to the powerbutton being pressed [05:48] the network disconnects and the keyboard lights don't function [05:48] that's right. The change does not apply to all the characteristics of the mouse theme... [05:50] bye for now...I have to leave. I will look into it. Thanks for your interest... [05:50] xubuntu157: The other themes may not be complete, I might try chameleon-cursor-theme if I were you. [05:51] (Actually might look at it being me, screenshots looked nice.) [05:51] I tried everything...after changing many mouse theme, I've got the same behaviour, bye for now [05:51] exit [05:54] Erm, it's animated... === ash_m is now known as Guest89645 === ash_m_ is now known as ash_m [06:09] I can't believe I can't get my ethernet port to work on this computer [06:10] I did not have this problem on 2 weeks ago, but I reinstalled the OS because I sorta totally messed it up during an upgrade [06:17] hi [06:21] Hi ppl again: I've logged in with my name now...I was talking about the mouse settings before. I was trying a couple of day to change mouse theme without success. For exampleoOnly a part of it changed the pointer always remain the same [06:27] Anyone tried this? It simple in Ubuntu...but in Xubunt it seems buggy! Any suggestions... [06:28] Miltos, I'm 12.04 and it works without issue for me. [06:46] xbuntu 13.1 has this problem... [06:48] you could try selecting the cursor theme with update-alternatives [06:49] update-alternatives do not work either, I've tried this... [06:51] did you log out after that? [06:51] Miltos: btw, just type start of a nick and then press tab [06:55] Sysi: thanks [06:58] cfhowlett: Any solution to this problem? any ideas? cause the configuration of the desktop for some ppl is important. The easyness for it makes their choise for the OS they are using...(and of course the money):-) [07:13] Sysi: yes I always logout and login after making changes to Xbuntu. No luck though with the change of cursro theme. This should be an old problem as far as I can remember with Xubuntu. It appeared again? Can anyone confirm with 13.1? [08:04] I've just google "change mouse theme in Xubunt" and it turned some pages with instructions how to change mouse theme. Everything I tried didn't work.Just a pain...for a minor change in such rich environment? [08:18] that's easy. go to http://xfce-look.org and find a theme that you like. extract it to /usr/share/icons/ and chose your new theme from settings -> mouse and touchpad === koegs_ is now known as koegs [09:17] likevel: do you think that theme settings will work?

[12:23] on that notebook there was ubuntu and puppy linux and I had never had such problems [12:24] thx xubuntu516 [12:25] are you able to upload one of these? sb can try on his own. [12:26] could it represent an issue the fact that I installed DeVeDe, which comes with libavdev-extras-53 instead of libavdev53? Anyway I replaced the first lib with the sexond one, since they are not compatible [12:26] sb? [12:28] maybe something is wrong with graphic driver? [12:29] it could be but i don't know how to check that, however the lack seems to involve the avi fiìes only... [12:30] only .avi but every .avi? [12:30] but avi is only container. How about the actual video format inside it? [12:30] hi Sysi, I've tried with two xvid === SirLagz_ is now known as SirLagz [12:32] I am trying now with an other kind of avi [12:34] Maybe if you install some program which comes with it's own libraries, you can make sure where is the problem?
