borw3Help, I see that ubuntu has automatic window placement. EG: If I move a window to the corner it takes up some portion of the screen automaticaly. But in xubuntu it moves to the next work area. How can I make this like ubuntu?07:48

starfishAnybody familiar with rsync? I have a simple question but I can figure it out14:07
mtiftstarfish: sure, what's up?14:09
starfishI want to keep a backup folder on my flash drive and use rsync to update the flash drive as I make changes to the original folder. How would I write this command?14:09
mtiftstarfish: so you want a command that will transfer the files once or you want a command that will somehow keep running?14:11
mtiftif you just want to sync the two folders it would be something like "rsync -r dir1/ dir2"14:12
mtiftbut that will be a one-time thing14:12
starfishJust a command that I can manually run whenever I want to update my backup14:16
=== james0r2 is now known as james0r
starfishthat seems to work. thanks!14:19
mtiftstarfish: you'll need to find the location of your flash drive and figure out what options you want14:20
mtiftI usually do something like "rsync -rav --delete /home/USER/source_folder/ /mnt/flash_drive"14:21
mtiftbut, you know, read the man page :)14:22

gnuckuneed some help22:16
gnuckuafter failing to have a functioning xubuntu 14.04 on an old desktop22:17
gnuckudue to graphical reasons22:17
gnuckui noticed that "live cd" versions of ol xubuntus weren't having those troubles22:17
gnuckulike, xubuntu 9.0422:18
gnuckuso, i installed it. but unlike xubuntu 14.04, i have a new problem. the monitor says "not optimum mode bla bla bla"22:18
knomegnucku, xubuntu 9.04 is far from "supported"22:20
gnuckuyeah...22:21
gnuckuthat means no ideas?22:21
knomethat means you can search for the internet for answers, but this channel is not the right place to ask support questions related to that version22:22
gnuckuk, thanks man22:23
knomegood luck.22:23
gnuckujust trying to work around it, since current version wasn't working right :D22:24
knomeyou could try 12.04; that's still supported22:24
gnuckuback to 10.04, the graphical problems persist22:25
gnuckuactually, on 10.04, they get a bit better22:26
gnuckubut only on 9.04 they are gone (at least on the "live cd")22:28
gnuckui actually managed to enter rescue mode, maybe I can go somwhere rom here22:30
gnuckuthanks knome22:30
knomenp, and again, good luck22:31

batfastadHi everyone. Just switched to xubuntu from mint xfce, just for a bit of a change. Seems great so far.23:00
xubuntu30wWith GRUB I don t know how to specify another kernel to boot from23:01
batfastadQuestion, how do I change the default handler for audio files. I'd like to use audacious instead of gmusicbrowser23:01
brainwashbatfastad: should be settings manager > mime type editor23:02
batfastadbrainwash: Perfect! I knew there must be something like that somewhere. Thanks!23:04
xubuntu30whow can I change the default kernel for GRUB ?23:07
brainwash!grub | xubuntu30w23:13
ubottuxubuntu30w: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub223:13
DarkmasterThi, i've tried several fixes from the ubuntu forum which had the same network card problem. none of them have worked23:31
DarkmasterTthe computer can see the ethernet but it still says no network devices available23:32
DarkmasterTforget which command it was but it said the ethernet connection was unclaimed, 01:09.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4401 100Base-T [14e4:4401] (rev 01)23:33
DarkmasterTevery solution on the forum was marked SOLVED for that exact same above listed ethernet controller but didnt work, running Xubuntu 14.04.123:38
DarkmasterTguessing everyone is away or knows about as much about making a stupid Broadcom work as i do, lol23:52
