=== TheRedQueen is now known as Drone` [01:29] how can i get synergy to start before login so i can use the keyboard from the host machine to login on the guest? [06:17] you can install any DE ontop of xubuntu right [06:17] yes, but let's stay in ONE channel to avoid cross-chatter [06:17] ok [06:19] soz i talk here about xubntu and talk in ubuntu about ubuntu and any flavors im looking at using [06:19] yep [06:20] 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] ok [07:50] Can you add the pop when you change volume like in lubuntu and xubuntu [09:42] Bonjour, on peut parler français ? [09:48] I am a new french user of xubuntu. I install it without problem. But I am with a qwerty keyboard! Why? Thank. [09:56] Bye, have a good day . [11:49] can somebody help me? xd [11:50] inf3rno, ask the real question and find out [11:51] i am trying to install xubuntu 16.04, what i need is drive encryption and gpt style partition [11:52] 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. [11:53] select the "something else" partitioning option [11:53] done [11:53] you should be able to achieve things there [11:54] if not, then i don't know [11:54] you probably want to do partitioning before installing in that case [11:54] (if that doesn't work, that is) [11:54] maybe [11:54] the installer is the same as for ubuntu, so if you find a tutorial for either... [12:02] 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) === flocculant_ is now known as flocculant [16:23] 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 [16:24] 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. [16:25] I'll let the install run for a while longer... [16:36] Must I install an even older version of xubuntu than v12 for a non-PAE kernel? [16:38] 12.04 is last without PAE [16:41] lol frankiee_ ! [16:42] frankiee_, whats ur beef with pae? [16:47] Got this oooooooooold laptop =) [16:50] did you have any luck with forcepae frankiee_ ? [16:54] frankiee_, oooooooold laptops can be fun [16:54] frankiee_, i have several [17:02] frankiee_, again, why dont you want to use a pae kernel? [17:04] I believe he has an old Celeron that doesn't properly support pae [17:05] thx MoBeats [17:05] :) [17:20] lol [17:20] MoBeats great to see you again man =) [17:21] frankiee_: have you actually tried the 16.04 iso using the forcepae option? [17:21] cos lubuntu 16.04 installs with forcepae [17:23] *apparently* ... [17:23] i'm trying to install xubuntu rather than lubuntu and in the xubuntu install i don't see no pae option [17:23] frankiee_: you have to add forcepae [17:25] i'll figure out how to do that in xubuntu thanks [17:25] 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] it's past work hours for me so I DON'T GIVE A FUUUUUUUUUUUCK [17:25] lol [17:25] I believe only Lubuntu ships with the no pae kernel [17:25] hey thanks flocculant [17:25] xangua: possibly [17:26] uh oh :| [17:26] in which case - install the latest lubuntu and add xubuntu-desktop [17:26] anyway - worth trying [17:26] it has lubuntu 12 currently [17:26] but it was useless, wouldn't play movies or anything [17:27] xubuntu-desktop you got it [17:27] upgrade it to 16.04 - then install xubuntu-desktop [17:27] flocculant: do-release-upgrade yeah? [17:27] though clean install will be a whole lot quicker [17:27] I assume there's not much in the way of data on it [17:27] it is a clean install [17:27] of 12 [17:28] don't upgrade then - re-install a new version :) [17:28] but 16 won't run due to my cpu [17:28] frankiee_: Somebody should count how many times this link was given to you - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE [17:28] Did you try this solution? [17:29] Spass: yes [17:29] Didn't work? [17:29] then that's the same as what I said [17:30] 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 [17:31] I'm not seeing that screen with xubuntu. With lubuntu, it didn't work with v16 but with v12. [17:31] Alright walk away man with your attitude [17:32] "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." [17:33] AFAIR when you boot Xubuntu DVD/USB at the beginning you have this "keyboard and a little man" [17:38] frankiee_: So, do you see that on your screen when you're booting your Xubuntu 16.04 32-bit installation media? [17:39] It should be visible at the beginning, for a 2-3 seconds. [17:44] http://i.stack.imgur.com/GtEi5.png [18:16] Spass: Yes indeed [18:17] I never knew this little guy was this important [18:19] He may be little, but sometimes he is important. [18:21] tab -> F6 -> Esc -> add forcepae -- forcepae [18:22] Generally, try to follow the steps in the guide. It really could help to solve your problem. [18:24] Thanks Spass [18:24] Had the silly notion that guide didn't apply to Xubuntu as well [18:25] Too many balls in the air and I can't juggle for shit LOL [18:25] I'm better off rapping at the street corner begging for change [18:40] Well knome, flocculant and me were giving you the same exact ball/solution. You just didn't want to play with it. [18:42] But I hope you'll be successful with your install now. [19:54] 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. [20:02] Sure
