[02:19] alright, thanks [07:21] how many people join this chan just because they've got nothing better to do while installing xubuntu? [07:22] 1? [07:22] (there's a link to the channel from the install wizard) [07:23] yes I know :) [07:23] some pop in - but not a huge number [07:25] there should be a link to tetris instead [07:25] 2 [08:12] hey there. Using .profile the orage timezone can be changed to a userdefined timezone with export TZ=.. This method requires to logout of a session though. Is it possible to do it without logging out? possibly from shell? [09:40] hi please help me to install flash player in xubuntu [09:41] hi please help me to install flash player in xubuntu [09:41] hi please help me to install flash player in xubuntu [09:41] hi please help me to install flash player in xubuntu [09:42] hi please help me to install flash player in xubuntu [09:44] xubuntuazeez: are you on a xubuntu installation? === lolz is now known as Guest17034 [11:43] I think I might have an issue with my graphics card. It appears to work fine but I checked the log by doing: "dmesg | egrep 'drm|radeon'" and I got this ominous line: "fb: conflicting fb hw usage radeondrmfb vs VESA VGA - removing generic driver" [11:43] Completely fresh install by the way. Graphics card is CAYMAN Radeon HD 6950 [11:45] PMunch: I think that's fine [11:46] It certainly seems fine. But googling the error I found quite a bunch of people with similar logs who couldn't properly boot. I have noticed some times in the past on the same setup that my machine would hang on boot. Not a huge issue though.. [11:50] Be right back, have to relog [11:55] Is englis language best to use in linux ? [11:56] xubuntu57w, if you speak English, yes. [11:56] @xubuntu57w Other languages are good as well, but English is best supported [11:57] Depends a bit on the distro [11:57] I speech 2 languages.. i use english in linux, [11:58] I am very new at this...and i need help loading flash player to my system...i am lost on all the new yerms can someone please help me? [11:59] !flash | xubuntu266, [11:59] xubuntu266,: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash [11:59] sorry "terms: [11:59] xubuntu266, easy method: open a terminal. run this command: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [12:01] xubuntu-restricted-extras [12:16] Thank you both for your help i got it..... [12:25] I figure out that the restricted extras is used if you check the two download boxes when you install xubuntu. [12:26] xubuntu57w, not true. [12:26] xubuntu57w, mp3 codecs yes. flash no. other restricted extras, no. [12:50] Howdy, strangers! [12:51] Can I ask you a question? [12:52] Ok, I'll ask.. [12:53] I've installed xubuntu today after a non-gnulinux time [12:55] that's a statement [12:55] For a my distraction I've selected U.S.A. keyboard, but I wanna use the Italian keyboard on the desktop and on the terminal === kenlee_ is now known as kenlee [13:01] Guessing you're asking how to switch keyboard layouts? [13:01] Settings > Keyboard > Layout [13:02] Does anyone else have a "problem" with Chromium "crashing" on unlock? If chromium is the active window when screen is locked it "crashes" on unlock. Doesn't seem to do much, apart from sometimes freezing the ui. [13:03] I know that, but I don't remember how to change the layout in the terminal? (Ctrl+Alt+F2) [13:03] If you change it system wide it should be chosen for the terminal as well [13:04] Or do you mean the actual teminal? Not the terminal emulator? [13:05] Terminal - no windows, just text. Terminal Emulator - window with same functionality as terminal, colloquially called terminal [13:06] I know that, I don't remember how to change the keyboard layout! [13:06] In the terminal [13:07] I remember what's the difference between a terminal and a terminal emulator [13:11] I'm not sure if you can. I think the terminal might read raw input from the keyboard.. [13:11] Could be that it has some way of doing it but probably not through the interface [13:12] I remember a command: dpkg-reconfigure [13:13] I want to learn again how to use terminal, GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, Slackware, Gentoo [13:14] is it just me, or do xfce packages mimmic other desktop environments? I installed gnome-terminal next to xfce4-terminal -- they look basically identical [13:14] and gmusicbrowser looks the same as rythmbox [13:15] after an accident [13:16] And xfce video player looks like gnome video player [13:17] And LibreOffice looks like OpenOffice [13:18] LO is a fork of OO [13:18] just curious about these xfce apps though [13:18] I take it they're not forks [13:18] just a way of getting the same feel as gnome, without the gnome libs [13:22] And my mother looks like my neighbor [13:33] lol [13:33] is she a fork? or just imitating? [13:42] No, my neighbor is a proprietary person, my mother is a clone of his. [13:43] (a free clone) [13:43] !ot [13:43] #xubuntu is the Xubuntu support channel, #xubuntu-devel for discussion regarding development of Xubuntu, and #xubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! [13:43] I'm sorry! [13:44] :) [13:45] I Don't find a way for creating a new tab for xubuntu-offtopic using XChat [13:46] /join #xubuntu-offtopic [13:47] or click #xubuntu-offtopic [13:47] or >server >enter a channel >type channel name [13:48] T*hank you very much, I used the join IRC command [14:35] Hi [14:35] how do I disable the "log in" screen when computer is idle for 5 min ?

[20:50] !samba [20:50] Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html [20:51] xubuntu74w: though, there are many ways, on the same network, or with 3rd party applications like dropbox.. [20:51] xubuntu74w: you can remove "on a wifi network" from that question when searching.. [20:52] http://www.7tutorials.com/how-access-ubuntu-shared-folders-windows-7 for example.. will be similar in xfce [23:53] Whee. I just love thunar. http://pastebin.com/3p9K7Xn5 [23:55] superkuh, awesome attitude. [23:56] I do have a good one, yeah. I mean, it's not like I've spent 30+ hours on my end of actual work trying to figure out what exactly has been going on and being polite about it. [23:56] Over about a month, being polite. [23:56] superkuh: Any additional sources that you're pulling these things in from? Doing anything specifically weird? [23:57] The two things that are weird are: upgrading from 12.04 to 14.04 and running Ubuntu MATE desktop. [23:57] whoopsie reported an upload too, at that. Got a bug link? [23:57] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunar/+bug/1372140 [23:57] Launchpad bug 1372140 in thunar (Ubuntu) "thunar segfault, memory corruption in the gslice magazine allocator" [Undecided,Confirmed] [23:58] I feel fairly justified in my every other day sarcastic whining.
