|---|---|---|
| FireStriker | you can install any DE ontop of xubuntu right | 06:17 |
| cfhowlett | yes, but let's stay in ONE channel to avoid cross-chatter | 06:17 |
| FireStriker | ok | 06:17 |
| FireStriker | soz i talk here about xubntu and talk in ubuntu about ubuntu and any flavors im looking at using | 06:19 |
| cfhowlett | yep | 06:19 |
| FireStriker | i have a xubuntu laptop and a hp win8 laptop wich i dont know what to put on as a dual boot atm | 06:20 |
| cfhowlett | ok | 06:20 |
| FireStriker | Can you add the pop when you change volume like in lubuntu and xubuntu | 07:50 |
| xubuntu13w | Bonjour, on peut parler français ? | 09:42 |
| xubuntu13w | I am a new french user of xubuntu. I install it without problem. But I am with a qwerty keyboard! Why? Thank. | 09:48 |
| xubuntu13w | Bye, have a good day . | 09:56 |
| inf3rno | can somebody help me? xd | 11:49 |
| knome | inf3rno, ask the real question and find out | 11:50 |
| inf3rno | i am trying to install xubuntu 16.04, what i need is drive encryption and gpt style partition | 11:51 |
| inf3rno | how should i do that? as far as i can see the installer / something else does not contain any of that. at least by other distros there were options like bios boot area / efi partition for the small fat32 the gpt needs. | 11:52 |
| knome | select the "something else" partitioning option | 11:53 |
| inf3rno | done | 11:53 |
| knome | you should be able to achieve things there | 11:53 |
| knome | if not, then i don't know | 11:54 |
| knome | you probably want to do partitioning before installing in that case | 11:54 |
| knome | (if that doesn't work, that is) | 11:54 |
| inf3rno | maybe | 11:54 |
| knome | the installer is the same as for ubuntu, so if you find a tutorial for either... | 11:54 |
| inf3rno | http://imgur.com/a/xAJRv here is a screenshot from the ubuntu 14 installer... i dont have that bios boot area option by xubuntu 16 (i did not test the ubuntu 16 installer) | 12:02 |

| frankiee_ | Is it normal for the xubuntu 12 installation to revert to console mode? I'm seeing a bunch of messages (dear lord I hope I don't have to type all of them), ending with [649.63007] EIP: [<...>] wdev_priv.part.7-0x3/0x5 [ul] SS:ESP 0068:c1aa1cec | 16:23 |
| frankiee_ | I'm trying to install Xubuntu 12.04 (and later do a `do-release-upgrade`) due to my non-PAE CPU (Intel Celeron M 1.40GHz) HP Pavilion dv1000 laptop. | 16:24 |
| frankiee_ | I'll let the install run for a while longer... | 16:25 |
| frankiee_ | Must I install an even older version of xubuntu than v12 for a non-PAE kernel? | 16:36 |
| genii | 12.04 is last without PAE | 16:38 |
| glitchd | lol frankiee_ ! | 16:41 |
| glitchd | frankiee_, whats ur beef with pae? | 16:42 |
| frankiee_ | Got this oooooooooold laptop =) | 16:47 |
| MoBeats | did you have any luck with forcepae frankiee_ ? | 16:50 |
| glitchd | frankiee_, oooooooold laptops can be fun | 16:54 |
| glitchd | frankiee_, i have several | 16:54 |
| glitchd | frankiee_, again, why dont you want to use a pae kernel? | 17:02 |
| MoBeats | I believe he has an old Celeron that doesn't properly support pae | 17:04 |
| glitchd | thx MoBeats | 17:05 |
| MoBeats | :) | 17:05 |
| frankiee_ | lol | 17:20 |
| frankiee_ | MoBeats great to see you again man =) | 17:20 |
| flocculant | frankiee_: have you actually tried the 16.04 iso using the forcepae option? | 17:21 |
| flocculant | cos lubuntu 16.04 installs with forcepae | 17:21 |
| flocculant | *apparently* ... | 17:23 |
| frankiee_ | i'm trying to install xubuntu rather than lubuntu and in the xubuntu install i don't see no pae option | 17:23 |
| flocculant | frankiee_: you have to add forcepae | 17:23 |
| frankiee_ | i'll figure out how to do that in xubuntu thanks | 17:25 |
| flocculant | start the installer - then at the human/kbd stage hit any key - then F6 - then escape, then you can manually add forcepae -- forcepae to the end of the string, enter and if it can use it - then it will | 17:25 |
| frankiee_ | it's past work hours for me so I DON'T GIVE A FUUUUUUUUUUUCK | 17:25 |
| frankiee_ | lol | 17:25 |
| xangua | I believe only Lubuntu ships with the no pae kernel | 17:25 |
| frankiee_ | hey thanks flocculant | 17:25 |
| flocculant | xangua: possibly | 17:25 |
| frankiee_ | uh oh :| | 17:26 |
| flocculant | in which case - install the latest lubuntu and add xubuntu-desktop | 17:26 |
| flocculant | anyway - worth trying | 17:26 |
| frankiee_ | it has lubuntu 12 currently | 17:26 |
| frankiee_ | but it was useless, wouldn't play movies or anything | 17:26 |
| frankiee_ | xubuntu-desktop you got it | 17:27 |
| flocculant | upgrade it to 16.04 - then install xubuntu-desktop | 17:27 |
| frankiee_ | flocculant: do-release-upgrade yeah? | 17:27 |
| flocculant | though clean install will be a whole lot quicker | 17:27 |
| flocculant | I assume there's not much in the way of data on it | 17:27 |
| frankiee_ | it is a clean install | 17:27 |
| frankiee_ | of 12 | 17:27 |
| flocculant | don't upgrade then - re-install a new version :) | 17:28 |
| frankiee_ | but 16 won't run due to my cpu | 17:28 |
| Spass | frankiee_: Somebody should count how many times this link was given to you - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE | 17:28 |
| Spass | Did you try this solution? | 17:28 |
| frankiee_ | Spass: yes | 17:29 |
| Spass | Didn't work? | 17:29 |
| flocculant | then that's the same as what I said | 17:29 |
| flocculant | which is why it's really useful to answer people's questions - MoBeats specifically asked you that 40 minutes ago ... | 17:30 |
| * flocculant wanders off | 17:30 | |
| frankiee_ | I'm not seeing that screen with xubuntu. With lubuntu, it didn't work with v16 but with v12. | 17:31 |
| frankiee_ | Alright walk away man with your attitude | 17:31 |
| Spass | "Boot the computer with an 32-bit Lubuntu DVD in the DVD drive. When the image of a keyboard and a little man in a circle appears, hit the tab key." | 17:32 |
| Spass | AFAIR when you boot Xubuntu DVD/USB at the beginning you have this "keyboard and a little man" | 17:33 |
| Spass | frankiee_: So, do you see that on your screen when you're booting your Xubuntu 16.04 32-bit installation media? | 17:38 |
| Spass | It should be visible at the beginning, for a 2-3 seconds. | 17:39 |
| Spass | http://i.stack.imgur.com/GtEi5.png | 17:44 |
| frankiee_ | Spass: Yes indeed | 18:16 |
| frankiee_ | I never knew this little guy was this important | 18:17 |
| Spass | He may be little, but sometimes he is important. | 18:19 |
| Spass | tab -> F6 -> Esc -> add forcepae -- forcepae | 18:21 |
| Spass | Generally, try to follow the steps in the guide. It really could help to solve your problem. | 18:22 |
| frankiee_ | Thanks Spass | 18:24 |
| frankiee_ | Had the silly notion that guide didn't apply to Xubuntu as well | 18:24 |
| frankiee_ | Too many balls in the air and I can't juggle for shit LOL | 18:25 |
| frankiee_ | I'm better off rapping at the street corner begging for change | 18:25 |
| Spass | Well knome, flocculant and me were giving you the same exact ball/solution. You just didn't want to play with it. | 18:40 |
| Spass | But I hope you'll be successful with your install now. | 18:42 |
| TempAcc499 | http://mibpaste.com/hy9lHo would this be an okay SSD to run Ubuntu on? It's a small 20GB drive. I most likely want to run Xubuntu. | 19:54 |
| SuperSeriousCat | Sure | 20:02 |
