| <VileChild> I had a quick question for all of you before I download xubuntu, um ... when Ubuntu releases these updates (such as the recent one fixing bugs in the original Dapper Drake) | |
| <VileChild> Do these updates take place on Xubuntu as well? | |
| <briguyd> yep | |
| <stray77> yes | |
| <briguyd> its pretty much the same operating system | |
| <briguyd> just with a different front end | |
| <crimsun> dpkg-deb: building package `gtk2-engines-murrine' in `../gtk2-engines-murrine_0.9.1-0ubuntu0.1_i386.deb'. | |
| <crimsun> hmm, viper550 did nice work with xubuntu-murrina | |

| <briguyd> cool | |
| <rellim> :) | |
| <briguyd> i wish i had a job | |
| <rellim> another guy actually wrote everything up to this point, i am just taking over the project because he got a new job | |
| <briguyd> cool cool | |
| <rellim> yeah ... i am going to make sure to give him credit in the "About" menu | |
| <briguyd> so are you a comp sci major? | |
| <rellim> yes, that is my undergraduate work and as soon as i get that degree i plan to do masters work in digital forensics | |

| <briguyd> what school are you at? | |
| <rellim> Sam Houston State University .... | |
| <briguyd> alright | |
| <briguyd> cool | |
| <rellim> its not too well known for the computer science under grad because Rice and UT take the cake for that, but our digital forensics department is the best in the state and that's why i'm here | |
| <briguyd> cool | |
| <rellim> you in school? | |
| <briguyd> high school | |

| <damo22> help my fonts have disappeared | |
| <damo22> i tried reinstalling xfonts-base and a few of the main fonts but they wont appear inside xubuntu | |
| <damo22> all i have is sans, and a few yuckky ones | |
| <damo22> how do i reconfigure all my fonts | |
| <TheSheep> damo22: try fc-cache | |
| <TheSheep> or even fc-cache -f | |
| <damo22> ok, i did sudo fc-cache -f, should i restart x? | |
| <damo22> they arent appearing, like dejavu etc arent there | |
| <TheSheep> :/ | |
| <TheSheep> no, they should appear | |
| <TheSheep> I think dejavy are in a separate package | |
| <damo22> yeah, i did sudo apt-get install --reinstall ttf-dejavu | |
| <damo22> and sudo fc-cache -f | |
| <damo22> still nothing | |
| <damo22> :( | |
| <damo22> i have a feeling i wrecked something, i moved all the files from /usr/local to /usr because i thought dapper didnt use /usr/local , then i put in a symlink from /usr/local -> /usr | |
| <damo22> is this bad? | |
| <damo22> err yep i screwed everything up with that symlink | |

| <frig> hello :) | |
| <frig> how well would xubuntu run on a 32mb ram/266mhz machine? | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> Slowly, I'd imagine. That's not a lot of RAM. | |
| <frig> hm | |
| <frig> cant seem to find an os short of win98 that will >.> | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> There're Linux distros specifically for low resource systems. | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> Damn Small Linux comes to mind - the base install is <50MB. | |
| <frig> heh, i remember hearing about that once before. | |
| <frig> thanks, ill look a little harder | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> G'luck. | |
| <josesito> someone can help me with video capturing?? | |
| <frig> im going to need it im afraid | |
| <ompaul> frig, DSL | |
| <frig> i was just looking at it, looks pretty good | |
| <frig> think ill give it a try :) | |
| <frig> have eny experience with it? | |
| <frig> any* | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> A bit. I have it installed on a usb pendrive. | |
| <frig> heh | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> It's decent, although it's missing a few 'user comfort' features of a bigger software set. | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> It's also missing my network driver. o.O | |
| <frig> :/ | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> s/network/NIC/ | |
| <drbreen> dont like dsl --> fluxbox needs no desktop icons | |
| <frig> any other low end linux distros anyone know of? | |
| <Jenga> | |
| <Jenga> hi | |
| <epitaf-laptop> frig, Vector Linux. But if I remember correctly, it requires 64 mb ram | |
| <frig> darn :/ | |
| <epitaf-laptop> frig, DeLi Linux might be something | |
| <frig> ill check it out | |
| <Bonzak> hi guys what package should i install if i want to write in cyrillic? | |
| <Bonzak> 10x in advance | |
| <epitaf-laptop> are there drivers for graphic cards in the synaptic package manager? | |
| <sensei> apt-cache search xserver-xorg-driver | |
| <epitaf-laptop> aha, handy | |
| <epitaf-laptop> i already had the latest version of the ati driver though, it seemed | |
| <epitaf-laptop> i am trying to run a game that has .x11 extension, but its very laggy | |
| <sensei> Okay, maybe the ati driver doesn't have 3d acceleration enabled | |

| <matahari> hi | |
| <flasher> how can i view avi movie files? | |
| <matahari> sunday, i took at xubuntu - and i have to say: WOW! really cool and really well made! | |
| <matahari> nevertheless i have some questions: | |
| <evilone1> same here! | |
| <matahari> 1.) How can i use the Windows Key? (i want to make things like increase/decrease volume, mute with it) | |
| <evilone1> i read that review on gotux,org, it convinced me | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> flasher: Install the 'libxine-extracodecs' package, or an avi-compatible player like Mplayer or VLC. You'll have to enable the multiverse repository to do that. | |
| <flasher> PuMpErNiCkLe: thanks. so if i install 'libxine-extracodecs" , there's no need to install mplayer, yes?\ | |
| <evilone1> great job to all involved | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> Exactly, 'libxine-extracodecs' will be used by Xfmedia. | |
| <flasher> PuMpErNiCkLe: i'd be able to play avi on xfmedia, after installng 'libxine-extracodecs'? | |
| <flasher> ok | |
| <flasher> thanks | |
| <matahari> 2.) Is there any possibility to integrate the profile manager from the network in the XFCE bar at the bittim? | |
| <matahari> *bottom | |
| <epitaf-laptop> sensei, ok thanks | |
| <epitaf-laptop> PuMpErNiCkLe, was that URL for me? | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> matahari: You can add custom keybindings in Applictions -> Settings -> Keyboard settings. | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> epitaf-laptop: Not you specifically, I thought the entire channel would find it interesting. | |
| <epitaf-laptop> ok :) | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> It's about how Xorg is getting the best of both XGL and AIGLX merged into its codebase. | |
| <evilone1> cool | |
| <flasher> PuMpErNiCkLe: please check my sources list. i think mulitverse in enabled. what do you think? | |
| <flasher> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20791 | |
| <flasher> PuMpErNiCkLe: pls see line 22 | |
| <flasher> isn't it enabled? | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> sec | |
| <flasher> if so, how come i can't install. | |
| <flasher> ok | |
| <flasher> thank- | |
| <matahari> PuMpErNiCkLe: i tried this already - it doesn't recognize the windows-key | |
| <evilone1> ugh the canadian server flasher | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> flasher: You'll have to run 'sudo apt-get update' first. | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> matahari: It does for me... | |
| <flasher> evilone1: what's wrong wih canadinan server? is it slow? should i switch to usa server? | |
| <evilone1> i have real bad luck with it | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> It shows up as the Super_L or Super_R key. | |
| <evilone1> i tend to use the U.S | |
| <matahari> i looked in the xmodmap - there the key is specified | |
| <matahari> its strange | |
| <flasher> PuMpErNiCkLe: i just ran 'sudo apt-get update' and then tried installing libxine-extracodecs, but still, it says "no packages will be installed" | |
| <evilone1> even though the canadian one is closer | |
| <matahari> it doesn't recognize the windows key | |
| <flasher> evilone1: maybe i should swtich to the usa repo, too. | |
| <flasher> how do i switch from canada to usa repos? | |
| <evilone1> change everything from ca to us | |
| <evilone1> then | |
| <flasher> evilone1: that's easy. thank | |
| <flasher> ok...? | |
| <evilone1> sudo apt-get update | |
| <evilone1> might not work, just i've found the canadian one, kinda gotchy, especially over weekends, i had ran ubuntu before,so i found out that way | |
| <evilone1> *gitchy | |
| <flasher> evilone1: what might not work? | |
| <evilone1> try it to see if that rectifies your problem | |
| <evilone1> if it doesn't we'll figure it out | |
| <evilone1> can i ask ya something flasher | |
| <flasher> evilone1: sure | |
| <flasher> PuMpErNiCkLe: how come i can't install? | |
| <evilone1> it looks like you didn't activate all your repos | |
| <flasher> PuMpErNiCkLe: it seems that i can't install anything from multiverse, even if sources.list looks okay | |
| <flasher> evilone1: so what should i do? | |
| <flasher> evilone1: i've changed from ca to us, now | |
| <evilone1> software properties | |
| <flasher> evilone1: synatpic? | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> flasher: You should be able to. I'll paste my sources.list, so if all else fails, you can use mine. | |
| <evilone1> look at his pastebin | |
| <evilone1> most of his repos are commented out | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20792 | |
| <evilone1> open up in admin | |
| <flasher> i couldp just copy and paste his. but can't we tell what's wrong with my sources.list? | |
| <evilone1> software properties | |
| <flasher> evilone1: where's admin? | |
| <evilone1> k open up synaptic then | |
| <flasher> evilone1: synaptic is open now | |
| <evilone1> settings>repositories | |
| <evilone1> put a tick in all | |
| <matahari> Is there any possibility to integrate the profile manager from the network settings in the XFCE bar at the bottom? | |
| <flasher> even in (Sources)? | |
| <evilone1> yes | |
| <evilone1> then | |
| <evilone1> before ya close | |
| <flasher> PuMpErNiCkLe: you're canadian? | |
| <evilone1> click add | |
| <evilone1> put a tick in community and non free click add again | |
| <evilone1> then close | |
| <PuMpErNiCkLe> flasher: Yeh. | |
| <evilone1> reload | |
| <evilone1> ok? | |
| <flasher> evilone1: ok | |
| <evilone1> another canajun? | |
| <flasher> i puta tick on mulitverse and universe | |
| <evilone1> check em all | |
| <evilone1> then do that lil ditty when you click that add button on upper right of synaptic | |
| <flasher> what "lil ditty"? | |
| <evilone1> add the community and non free, , you should be ok | |
| <evilone1> you check all the repos you can see | |
| <flasher> PuMpErNiCkLe: libxine-extracodecs seems to be already istalled | |
| <evilone1> then see the Add Remove Edit buttons? | |
| <evilone1> click the ADD | |
| <evilone1> then in that lil winder that will pop up tick community and non free | |
| <evilone1> add those | |
| <evilone1> reload | |
| <flasher> PuMpErNiCkLe: try playing this file in xfmedia http://coachesinfo.com/movies/articles/waterpolo/wpegg.avi | |
| <flasher> it opens up, then closes | |
| <flasher> what's wrong? | |
| <flasher> is it with the avi file itself? | |
| <flasher> evilone1: 'ive added communiity and nonfree, when you told me the first time | |
| <evilone1> k | |
| <evilone1> it plays fine for me | |
| <flasher> what app do you use? | |
| <flasher> xfmedia?\ | |
| <evilone1> why not just run easyubuntu | |
| <flasher> mplayer? | |
| <evilone1> mplayer | |
| <flasher> ah | |
| <flasher> try playing it in xfmedia | |
| <evilone1> np | |

| <evilone1> yup | |
| <flasher> well i'll install mplayer | |

| <evilone1> grrrrrrrr | |
| <evilone1> this might not help, but it's all i use now and i've had no vid probs since i started using it, try that easyubuntu | |
| <evilone1> it hauls in everything you need | |
| <riwa> PuMpErNiCkLe: If I understand correctly I can't have too big boot partition | |
| <evilone1> flasher, still here | |

| <flasher> evilone1: which? | |
| <evilone1> run that utility | |

| <evilone1> click that link | |
| <flasher> so you guys are saying that installing mplayer didn't install all others? | |
| <flasher> all other necessary codecs? | |
| <evilone1> you need the w32's | |
| <evilone1> no it just installs itself | |
| <flasher> ok | |
| <evilone1> if you read that post it'll give you the idear | |
| <flasher> what'st he name of w32codecs? what's package name? | |
| <evilone1> w32codecs | |
| <evilone1> but you have to add the repo | |
| <flasher> evilone1: i see. a non-ubuntu repo, yes? | |
| <evilone1> that's why i suggested easyubuntu, as above in this room | |
| <evilone1> it will do all that for you | |
| <evilone1> it's all stuff you need, | |
| <evilone1> you get to choose what to install | |
| <evilone1> the codecs you need | |
| <evilone1> plus you'll see other stuff if ya want it | |
| <Bonzak> what package should i install if i want to write in cyrillic | |
| <Bonzak> ? | |
| <flasher> i've installed w32codecs, as per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#head-6c942d1939d97331f96e42b63774003fde7daed5, but mplayer still crashes | |
| <evilone1> well, i gave ya what works for me, up to you if ya want to use it | |
| <flasher> see printout at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20797 | |
| <epitaf-laptop> what is the command for the applications menu if i want to bind it to a key? | |

| <Bonzak> hi is there anyone who can tell me what package should i install if i want to write in cyrillic? | |
| <epitaf-laptop> Bonzak, try apt-cache search cyrillic | |
| <epitaf-laptop> (i hope, i'm new to xubuntu, and linux in general) | |
| <Bonzak> yes but can u tell me what to install because i don't know | |
| <Bonzak> there are too many results | |
| <epitaf-laptop> sorry, no idea | |
| <epitaf-laptop> try the synaptic package manager and search for cyrillic | |
| <sensei> apt-cache search cyrillic |grep font | |
| <sensei> Should narrow it down a tad | |
| <drbreen_> is there a possibility to show the debian menu in ubuntu ? | |
| <drbreen_> or can one show the kde/gnome menu ? | |
| <epitaf-laptop> sensei, thanks for filling in ;) | |
| <drbreen_> err xubuntu i mean | |
| <drbreen_> typo | |
| <sensei> :) | |
| <drbreen_> cause xfce does not have menu entries for some software | |
| <sensei> drbreen_: Does the software exist on your system ? | |
| <drbreen_> yeah for example atomic tanks | |
| <drbreen_> does exist on my system | |
| <drbreen_> and in GNOME or KDE it is in a menu called "debian" | |
| <drbreen_> where the debian menu entries are | |
| <drbreen_> but in xubuntu it just is not there | |
| <drbreen_> i have to start it via alt f2 or vie terminal | |
| <sensei> Add it then: xfce4-menueditor | |
| <sensei> But.. I've read prople in here having problems with this tool | |

| <nbjayme> i found an issue when printing pdf. I created a pdf with image transparency but the printout will darken the transparent pixels. so i was forced to use acrobat reader. the problem is the "Print number of copies" option. i print a postscript then use the doc viewer to print. i stated 20 copies but only one copy is printed everytime. :( | |
| <nbjayme> what commandline tool can i use to print a postscript file? | |
| <bertlacy812> append -20 from the terminal | |
| <frig> aw man :( i got an 'operation has failed' from the iso image writer | |
| <bertlacy812> what image writer are you using | |
| <bertlacy812> I use Nero | |
| <frig> 'iso recorder' | |
| <frig> found it on the net | |
| <HaroldJohnson> I keep running out of RAM; how do I make more memory available? | |
| <bertlacy812> frig download Nero and use this product key 5C82-0010-8011-0000-7932-4090-9107 | |
| <frig> im downloading it now, thanks for the key :) | |
| <HaroldJohnson> Nero police here. | |
