[00:05] hi first time installer! === Timmy is now known as Guest58372 [01:54] hi [01:55] hi [01:55] Anyone know how to install themes in xfce? [01:55] ha,I have the same question [01:57] you can copy your themes files to you home directory like .theme or .icon [01:57] for icons extract them in you ~/.icons directory for themes in your ~/.themes directory [01:59] hi xangua, how to change the theme about login screen? [02:00] is the xubuntu using lightgdm? should I change the lightgdm themes? [03:43] Hello? [03:44] My xubuntu installation is stuck [03:44] last line says "configuring bcmwl-kernel-source(i386)" [03:45] any ideas? [03:45] how long do you wait before killing the install? [03:47] i have not killed yet [03:47] but its been like 20 min in that line [03:48] hmm, don't know [03:48] the system is installing the new kernel? [03:49] it is an old laptop...may be xubuntu is too much for this computer [03:49] seriously doubt that [03:49] could be just that slow [03:50] how old? cpu. freq, etc? [03:50] i will wait [03:50] pentium M, [03:50] 1 GB ram [03:50] and running at...i dont now [03:51] i just want to give life back to this machina [03:51] should work, probably in the 1.25 to 1.75 GHz range [03:51] yes, it is a latittude 505D [03:51] D505 [03:52] http://www.cnet.com/products/dell-latitude-d505/ [03:53] you can type the free command in terminal, and this command will print the memory status in system [03:54] for now, i would think it is just that slow [03:54] that is the one, let me see... [03:55] hey all [03:56] hey [03:56] hello [03:56] hey just installed xubuntu [03:56] only one small problem [03:56] wireless [03:57] I have a broadcom wifi card and there are too many options for me to wrap my head around [03:57] do you have it enabled? [03:57] ObrienDave: not sure [03:57] There's no wireless if that is what you mean [03:57] at any rate it seems on the webpage [03:58] at the top, you should see an icon like two arrows [03:58] click it [03:58] right now I am cabled in. [03:58] Thanks ObrienDave, I will wait 10 min more before killing the installation... [03:58] maybe you use the ifconfig command is better [03:58] near the bottom, look for "enable wi-fi" [03:58] no such option [03:59] so I need the driver AND firmware I am guessing? [03:59] is your wi-fi hardware switch on? [03:59] no sure how to determine... [03:59] ObrienDave: yes [03:59] but the screen comes up at the boot that there's an issue ucode5.fw [03:59] I cannot remember the exact phrasing but essentially I am missing the firmware [04:00] hmm, not sure about that. try looking on broadcom site [04:00] well I was looking at ubuntu docs and it is supported, but there are too many options [04:01] b43, wl, and wl has some of its own options [04:01] just too confusing [04:01] you'll probably need drivers and firmware from broadcom [04:02] right [04:02] ObrienDave: I see that my chipset is supported [04:02] but not sure which avenue to take [04:11] what is the model # of the wi-fi? [04:12] 4311 [04:12] see it's confusing [04:12] there's a lot of choices [04:13] no, that is not the model # [04:14] oh, hrm [04:14] ObrienDave: when I sudo modprobe b43, there's no output [04:15] if I do sudo modprobe wl says FATAL module not found [04:15] so I'm guessing the installed picked b43 [04:15] *installer [04:15] so that's what I'll go with [04:15] any way to verify that the b43 driver is installed? [04:15] daftykins gave you a command to get the model number, please don't crosspost in multiple channels [04:17] BCM4311 is the only "model number" that comes up with lspci [04:18] that is the b43xx model i sent you the help link for [04:18] !broadcom [04:18] Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx [04:18] that adapter needs to die a slow, painful death LOL [05:52] using an external USB mouse, the mouse goes somehow into 'deactivated mode', meaning nothing happens with the cursos when i move the mouse, until i click a button [05:52] this happens after aproximately 4 or 5 seconds of not moving the mouse [05:52] what is that? how can i deactivate it? [05:53] the mouse is going into sleep mode. not sure how to fix that. i bought a wireless Logitech mouse. cured that problem [05:54] thanks [05:56] aha! [05:56] it works when i plugged in the netbook (power) [05:56] that works for me for now [05:56] ah.. guess there has ot be a power setting for that then... [05:56] hi [05:57] can I install xubuntu from xubuntu, i.e. without having to reboot the computer and starting the instalation from a USB or a CD? [05:58] allons-y, don't think so [05:58] you have to reboot to boot into the new installation, in all cases. But you can install Ubuntu using debootstrap. [05:58] you mean.. update? [05:58] (ah, dual boot) [05:59] no, no [05:59] the problem is that my BIOS does not detect USB nor Cds [05:59] ok. i found no settings related to mouse and power, but .. well.. thanks ObrienDave [05:59] (I've already configured it in order to boot from a USB/CD, but nothing happens) [06:00] in some bioses you have to change multiple settings for it to work [06:00] so I was wondering if I can, at least, start the instalation within a previous instaled system, which in my case is Xubuntu [06:01] it's worst than that, belive me [06:01] worse* === Timmy_ is now known as Guest73000 === Guest73000 is now known as timmy- [07:04] hi everyone,I have a question how to change my login screen themes in xubuntu 14.04? [07:05] I wanna to change the style of login window [07:12] timmy-: http://askubuntu.com/questions/75755/how-to-change-the-lightdm-theme-greeter [07:14] baizon: thanks, I will read that later [08:40] what is the package name for the thing that when i play a video in parole player and i dont have the proper codec it pop up to automatically install them [08:42] xubuntu-restricted-extras should work for you [08:43] ObrienDave DAMMIT man! Did you babyoil your fingertips or something? [08:43] ObrienDave, yes but that's not what i am asking [08:44] cfhowlett, nope, just bored and looking to get snarky ;P [08:44] * cfhowlett slams face into keyboard [08:45] rofl [08:47] Junka, let me fire up parole and look [08:47] it only comes up when u dont have the proper codec installed [08:48] sorry, i don't see anything like that. [08:49] cfhowlett, you promised to be good, i didn't ;P [08:55] err, missed him [08:55] in case Junka returns, that's a dialog that is part of Parole, but that uses a gstreamer script to install codecs [08:55] junka is on main channel now [09:49] ochosi, did all the bug checks get finished earlier? i had to take a nap [09:50] ObrienDave: yup, they've meanwhile been verified [09:50] oh, cool \o/ [09:50] if you wanna help with testing, that'd be good to know. also feel free to check in with elfy about it (he's our QA lead) [09:51] i was helping with testing before the last release, and i kid elfy about being shorter than me on occasion :)) [09:51] heh good [09:52] * ochosi isn't really aware of who is regularly testing [09:52] not a problem === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [10:06] i do want to get back into utopic daily testing though [10:10] As I was cleaning my keyboard I accidently pressed the power button and booted the laptop on, instead of typing my password in to mount my hdd I just powered it off and pulled the battery out of the back and kept wiping the keyboard off. [10:11] Now every time it turns on it asks me to either boot into Ubuntu or to select Advancecd options. I select the recovery option and then select resume normal boot and I can get into my desktop. Any idea on how I could get it back to normal? [10:14] dual boot? [10:14] Nope [10:15] tried boot-repair? [10:15] No, I'll google that now, thanks [10:15] should be in the repos [10:16] Thanks ObrienDave [10:16] welcome [15:47] Hello, We try to access to http://localhost:8082 and we got this error HTTP ERROR: 404 [15:48] NOT_FOUND RequestURI=/ [15:49] we are using livegeoserver Xubuntu [15:51] xubuntu672: have you tried to access http://localhost:8082/geoserver/web to verify if the GeoServer web page opens?

[16:21] xubuntu200: google is your frined ;) [16:41] Hi to everyone, I have a problem fromseveral weeks, the monitor swith it down after 1 minute, I have uninstalled xscreensaver, light DM....(I don't remember the name), and I have deactivated power manager. Always the same problem. A Xubuntu IRC user suggested me to give this command in the terminal: xset q, the result is this http://paste.ubuntu.com/7842772/ Can someone help me I am going mad. Thanks [16:45] Seems that the timeout 60 is the answer, if I am correct how to change it? or better.. how to change it with a GUI like xscreensaver because seems that they have not effect on this system setting.... [17:05] there is someone? [17:05] hobbits [17:08] Mountain_R: btw., i've NEVER had a *problem* like that; where the monitor would go to sleep all on its own. xD (question is, what did you change :)) [17:09] kgb, nothing, i have becomed to change after that I have got this problem [17:10] Mountain_R: nVidia graphics adapter?.. can you try nvidia-settings? [17:10] sure [17:11] (not 100% sure if there are options for it, though) [17:11] it's a command? [17:11] *Oracle VM doesn't do too well with it.. no it's a program. [17:12] Mountain_R: it has dependencies, though!.. so, be careful that it won't modify your current video driver [17:13] ok [17:14] nvidia x server setting? [17:14] yup, the way i do it - is to install nvidia-settings from Synaptic, for example [17:15] (but i'm always on the default video drivers) [17:17] kgb, installe but I can't find it.. [17:18] found [17:20] there is nothing in the configurations [17:20] :-( === mpmctoo is now known as Windbag [17:22] kgb, profile and rules, empty [17:29] Mountain_R: as root, are you in a VM?.. i was just thinking MAYBE to use nvidia-settings to make a xorg.conf or make it manually (https://askubuntu.com/questions/227109/cannot-find-xorg-conf-in-xubuntu-12-10) and then PERHAPS it can be used to override whatever's causing the issue (but maybe i'm going about this all wrong, sorz; as i'm mostly guessing, as you can tell :)) [17:29] *http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2123353&p=12546857#post12546857 [17:30] (though it's prolly NOT the place to do what you need) [18:28] well haven't been on one of these in quite some time. [18:33] noob alert so here's my question. I'm running a distro of Xubuntu on a tecra A9 laptop. all seems to work well except for the dvd player. [18:36] what distro [18:39] so you mean which version? [18:39] is this MINT or something? [18:40] xubuntu [18:40] what program are you trying to play the dvd with [18:40] VLC [18:41] what error, if any [18:41] getting it [18:42] what about mplayer, does that do it [19:05] kgb, get it, I will try thanks [20:21] Hola acabo de actualizar el software de mi compu pero no se como activar de nuevo en la barra de tareas el icono de los wireles [20:21] alguien podría ayudarme [20:22] :( [20:23] !es | lucasflite [20:23] lucasflite: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro. [20:27] gracias!!!
