#xubuntu 2007-10-03 * Starting logfile irclogs/xubuntu.log <Mark7> Hey TheSheep! <Mark7> Lo Ubotu <Mark7> How are you both? <Mark7> I'm trying to figure out how to change my plugins in Epiphany <Mark7> There are some things you just don't need mplayer for <Mark7> RA and MP3s, for example <Mark7> I have audacious installed, I was thinking of using that for streaming audio playback. <Mark7> The problem is I have no idea how to edit the plugins configuration file <Mark7> Or even if I can do it without breaking something <Mark7> You guys don't mind me hogging bandwidth here, right? <Mark7> Cool <Mark7> So, hands up who's a bot :-) <Mark7> Or, even better, if you're a bot don't say anything <Mark7> :-D <Mark7> :-( <paulhan> Hi, I'm installing from an iso image and everything is fine until I get to /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off. I then get initramfs, but I can't seem to find anything to tell me where to take it from there <DaBeowulf> Please help I'm trying to get the nvidia-glx-new running again but when X should start it tells me: failed to load module "wfb" and that the kernel is of version 7184 (nvidia-glx which it installed when I tried to activate nvidia-glx-new via the restricted drivers tool) But I deleted that completely and reinstalled glx-new and used dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to activate it... <moforilla_> I recently installed the ntfs-3 package to get access to my windows files, after running some scripts on a link given to mount the drive I was still unable to read or write to it. <moforilla_> After coming back to xubuntu I find the drive mounted, with read only permissions <moforilla_> How can I got about making ti read and write? <moforilla_> it* <qiuhou> @moforilla: is the drive listed in your /etc/fstab file? <moforilla_> yes <moforilla_> qiuhou: #Added by diskmounter utility <moforilla_> /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1 ntfs ro,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000 0 0 <Pumpernickel> paulhan: Feisty livecd? <paulhan> Sorry, yes, that's the one. Burned it too iso and it seemed alright <qiuhou> sorry, gotta go for an hour or so <moforilla_> qiuhou: Which of these settings refer to read and writing? <Pumpernickel> Try the alternate cd or a Gutsy cd. Both should work; the error you're encountering doesn't have a reliable workaround (bug 96084). <ubotu> Launchpad bug 96084 in linux-source-2.6.20 "boot - /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/96084 <moforilla_> qiuhou: Im guessing the ro <Pumpernickel> !ntfs-3g <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions <paulhan> pumpernickel: Thanks so far. I tried a trick I saw of using a floppy disk and it loaded straight through. Am now at a login screen, but it won't let me continue until I type in a password which I don't have. I've tried root <moforilla> Im using this script to mounta disk <moforilla> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions <moforilla> I was linked to me by someone last time I was in the channel <moforilla> For some reason the script mounts the disk as read only? <moforilla> Has this got anything to do with answering no to the use of the experimental FUSE module? <darrend> is there documentation anywhere regarding if-up.d / if-down.d scripts? Specifically what variables are made available to them? <DaBeowulf> dammit I'm short of reinstalling the OS.. <DaBeowulf> Why does it still say the nvidia kernel module is 7184 when I installed nvidia-glx-new? <darrend> DaBeowulf: yeah, bit quieter here <xjonex> msg Nickserv puppu <moforilla> Can I change my X windows manager? <WippoZippo> hey, it seems that the ubuntu install can't find my harddrivers, I tried pci=conf1 and acpi=off but none of them solved my problem. I've been told it has something to do with the kernel? anyone has an idea? thanks :) <Mark7> Please, someone, talk to me <Mark7> I can't do this on my own :-( <vinze> Do what? <Mark7> Change the plug ins in Mozilla <vinze> Like? <Mark7> I don't want Mplayer to handle audio files <vinze> You mean when they are open in the browser? <Mark7> Yes <DaBeowulf> Okay how come after every reboot I've got to 'sudo modprobe nvidia' to get X starting again? * vinze searches about:config <DaBeowulf> Otherwise it says nvidia kernel module is 7184 while the module is 9755 and refuses to start X <DaBeowulf> And why is there no etc/modules which was in the suggestion from #ubuntu to fix this? <Mark7> And I especially don't want it to hog the browser <vinze> Mark7, can't you just delete the package mozilla-mplayer? <Mark7> I did <vinze> Then how can it still be used? <vinze> Is it listed in about:plugins? <DaBeowulf> Anyone? <Mark7> But that just means that I can't view embedded or streaming video content <vinze> Mark7, you mean that Firefox *opens* audio files with MPlayer by default, or that it plays them *in the browser window*? <Mark7> The mplayre plugin is still in the Mozilla plugins folder, so whenever I click on an audio link it goes off to look for that <Mark7> Yes, except replace Firefox with Epiphany <Mark7> I want the audio to open in a stand alone app <neozen> hey there all <neozen> have questions regarding drag n drop in xubuntu (xfce) ... where might I start looking for information <neozen> ? <vinze> neozen, the Xfce wiki? <Mark7> How come you can only get plug ins for mplayer and totem, anyway? <vinze> I guess those are the only ones available <Mark7> Well, there's xine as well <vinze> Mark7, I think I've found the answer <Mark7> Oh? <vinze> In Edit->Preferences, Content tab <vinze> There you click on "Manage" under "File Types" <Mark7> IS this for Forefox? <vinze> O damn <vinze> I mean not so good <vinze> Sorry <Mark7> What's wrong? <vinze> You use Epiphany of course :s <Mark7> Yeah <Mark7> But Epiphany uses the Mozilla plugins <vinze> Yeah true <vinze> But it uses another folder for preferences <vinze> Perhaps you could try and see what is changed if you chance it in Firefox, and try changing the same in the ~/.gnome2/epiphany folder <Mark7> How do I access that folder? <Mark7> Remember, I need to be root <vinze> Why? <Mark7> Because I want to change the behaviour of the plugins <vinze> I though you wanted to change the behaviour of the browser (i.e. what content should be handled by what) <neozen> vinze: O.o wasn't exactly in the wiki .... but found this: http://xfc.xfce.org/docs/howto/html/draganddrop.html <Mark7> Yeah, that's what I meant <vinze> Then I don't think you need to be root <Mark7> But I can't find any other way to do it * vinze is still looking <Mark7> There's no such option under Epiphany's preferences <Mark7> Believe me, I've looked <vinze> But I'm trying to find out where Firefox saves the preferences regarding file handling <vinze> Because Epiphany might use the same <Mark7> Okay <Mark7> ~/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox, maybe? <vinze> No, it's user-specific <Mark7> Right <DaBeowulf> Does not work. Maybe I should have said that I modprobe to remove the module all the time? <Mark7> Sorry to hear that DaBeowulf <TheSheep> Mark7: about:config <TheSheep> Mark7: in the address bar <Mark7> Done that <Mark7> Now what? <TheSheep> Mark7: there hsould be a number of entries for your formats <Mark7> There are LOTS of entries <TheSheep> Mark7: best do a search for it <vinze> TheSheep, I tried already, couldn't find anything :( <Mark7> Search for audio? * vinze is looking at ~/.mozilla/pluginreg.dat but can't find a similar file for Epiphany <Mark7> Maybe I'd have more joy with iceape * vinze gives up :( <Mark7> Is someone PMing me? <Mark7> The Systray icon just flashed <Mark7> Does this look like the right thing? plugin.default_plugin_disabled <vinze> Found that too, but I don't think it'll help <vinze> Or perhaps you'd disable *all* plugins with it <Mark7> Yeah :-( <Mark7> I just changed plugin.override_internal_types to true <vinze> And? <Mark7> Hang on <Mark7> I'm testing <Mark7> Hmm. I suspect a site FU may be the reason <Mark7> Someone didn't do their html properly <vinze> Ooooo... <TheSheep> Mark7: there is a help on mozilla.org <Mark7> Okay <Mark7> Let me just PM the site owner <Mark7> Done <Mark7> I'm at the Mozilla site. Where next? <Mark7> How do you write a plugin? <maxamillion> Mark7: using the mozilla API <maxamillion> i gotta run <Mark7> URL me to the Mizilla API <vinze> Mark7, a plugin or extension? <vinze> http://www.mozilla.org/projects/embedding/PublicAPIs.html <Mark7> A plugin <Mark7> I want to create a plugin that'll open the media player of MY choice <vinze> I have no idea, but the Mozilla API I googled to be the above URL <Mark7> Okay <Mark7> I need to read one of the already installed plugins so I can get some idea of what's involved <hyper__ch> hiho folks * hyper__ch needs suggestions for Jabber clients <TheSheep> hyper__ch: what are yur needs? <hyper__ch> TheSheep: never tried any... as my ICQ got hijacked yesterday (1128681) I'm saying good-bye to it and lean towards open-protocols now ;) <TheSheep> hyper__ch: I use gajim, it's written in python and pretty nice and simple <hyper__ch> TheSheep: what are the servers for in Gaijm? <maxamillion> hyper__ch: gaijim is just a jabber server ... it will connect to any jabber server you have an account on * hyper__ch needs a primer in Jabber ;) <maxamillion> hyper__ch: ah ... hmmm <hyper__ch> how does it work then? <hyper__ch> TheSheep meant gajim is nice and simple <maxamillion> hyper__ch: http://trac.gajim.org/wiki/WikiStart#help_quickstart_guides <hyper__ch> the creation of an account keeps failing :( <maxamillion> hyper__ch: i sorry... i just use google talk because i have gmail :) <Desolato1> hello <hyper__ch> hiho Desolato1 <Desolato1> I've got a question about installing, what shoudl I make the swap, primary or logical? <Desolato1> *should <TheSheep> doens't matter <TheSheep> doesn't <Desolato1> I've read that there's a limit of 4 primary partitions, I guess it's not a problem for me <hyper__ch> Desolato1: that's an ancient limit which you can circumvent with extended partitions <Desolato1> oh, ok. btw, is ntfs-3g avaialbe for xubuntu? <zoredache_> or lvm, or many other tricks <zoredache> Desolato1: yes the package you want to install is 'ntfs-3g' <hyper__ch> Desolato1: it is, but why do you want that? <Desolato1> ok, thanks <Desolato1> I'll carry on installing <Desolato1> see ya <jarnos> Hi. I get some kind of errors during startup. (Some llines are shown in console, but graphical login screen is displayed eventually.) How to get rid of the errors? <hyper__ch> jarnos: there's many ways, but first it would be good to actually know what error messages you get <user1> hi <hyper__ch> hiya user1 <user1> anyone know hows i get mailto:craighoward@example.net to just show my ip not my isp? <hyper__ch> user1: if you could elaborate a bit more... what you just said does not give much clues of what you want <user1> {{EMAIL+PHONE}} <user1> how i gey my host like that? <user1> eggdrop does it somehow <user1> anyone? <user1> \/join #bind <user1> srry <maxamillion> user1: eggdrop is a bot, bots other than ubotu are not allowed in official ubuntu and ubuntu derived channels <user1> maxamillion its on a another net <maxamillion> user1: oh ok :) <siimo> hi, 1 question, why is xubuntu live cd so heavyweight and slow to load <maxamillion> siimo: because it runs entirely in your system ram <siimo> maybe they should cut down some programmes? >< <hyper__ch> siimo: you cuold get more ram ;) <siimo> hyper__ch: i already have my motherbord maxed out <hyper__ch> siimo: why do you run it in ram? <siimo> i usually use it when the comp is in trouble and wont boot <jax> I think the idea is that it is non-modifying to the system. <hyper__ch> you could load a smaller system than xubuntu <siimo> its pretty amazing that i can run slax live cd and it boots 1/3 time as xubuntu and its full KDE system it also runs faster <siimo> i thought xfce should be faster <hyper__ch> xubuntu is faster than kubuntu ;) <siimo> *buntu live cds are very slow <hyper__ch> siimo: so? <siimo> hyper__ch: so it shouldn't be so slow <hyper_ch> the ubuntu live cds are not made for booting quickly but for showing what it will be like <jax> I recently installed xubuntu on /dev/hdb - which I had added from old box. I used 40 pin IDE cable instead of 80 pin. When I get newer cable, are there any settings that I will need to change from what the installer gave. <jarnos> hyper__ch, there are some messages about firmware microcodes or something during boot, but those text come and go so quickly I cannot follow. <siimo> jax: no <hyper_ch> jarnos: so how do you think we can help? <siimo> hyper__ch: well it also runs pretty slow... so showing what its like is still not very nice <hyper_ch> siimo: it shows what it is like <jarnos> hyper_ch, is there some log file where you can see the messages? <hyper_ch> jarnos: syslog <TheSheep> jarnos: in the /var/log/ directory <TheSheep> jarnos: you can also type 'dmesg | less' <thehollowwithin> how do i burn .daa files it is a iso <jarnos> There are several lines like this at the end of output of dmes: "bcm43xx: Error: Microcode "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw" not available or load failed." I am not sure if this is why I see console during startup. <thehollowwithin> ? <hyper_ch> jarnos: did you replace any hardware? did you install a new kernel? <thehollowwithin> how do i burn .daa files it is a iso <Soskel> hi <Soskel> how can I add my own program to the top bar? <hyper_ch> Soskel: right-clicke, add-new item, launcher <Soskel> thanks <hyper_ch> Soskel: or add Quicklauncher where you can add multiple launchers (small icons) <jarnos> hyper_ch, well I have installed all updates. I have also used some third party repositories, and disabled some. Some time ago I started to get message after login from Avahi that complained about my local network domain. I also installed (and later uninstalled) "Spyder2PRO 2.3.5 - Works with Windows Vista" by wine. <DaveMorris> hi guys, I'm working on mythbuntu which has recently switched to using xfce. I was wondering if anyone could help me with bug 148301 It's seem that a different locale changes the placement of buttons instead of just the names. Is this corect or have I put the wrong settings in for xfce? <ubotu> Launchpad bug 148301 in mythbuntu "Missing shutdown button in xfce" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/148301 <allen> Can I install an epson scanner/printer on xubuntu? <hyper_ch> bug 148301 <ubotu> Launchpad bug 148301 in mythbuntu "Missing shutdown button in xfce" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/148301 <hyper_ch> cool <mick_> hello <DaveMorris> hi <mick_> How can I do to have a icon in the bar for check my battery <mick_> I have a laptop <DaveMorris> allen: if you can install it on ubuntu then it'll work with xubuntu since it uses the same under the hood programs, it just has a different graphical user interface on it <DaveMorris> mick_: I'll have a look for you <mick_> DaveMorris, oh thx verry much <hyper_ch> mick, right-click the bar, add new item, batter monitor <mick_> oh ?! <mick_> I try * DaveMorris waiting for his laptop to boot <mick_> hyper_ch, it is ok <mick_> hyper_ch, thank you <hyper_ch> mick_: yw <mick_> :) <mick_> hyper_ch, why the network icon is not in the same frame <hyper_ch> mick_: I dunno what you mean <mick_> I explain <mick_> in the top bar, I have the network ico side by side the time <mick_> oh, wait I try a screenshot <mick_> lol, How can I take a screenshot <mick_> the touchpad dont work at all <hyper_ch> there's no screenshot functionality by default in xubuntu <mick_> oky <mick_> I try by xterm <allen> How do I get a ppd file for my printer? <Soskel> hi <Soskel> were is my fonts folder? <siimo> i use ~/.fonts/ <nikolam> <nikolam> Hi <nikolam> How to know what hardware is supported <nikolam> E.g. there must be some kind of database for those thing etc. <Pumpernickel> nikolam: There's no single complete db. If you're concerned about a specific part, though, it's pretty easy to find out how well supported it is. <hyper_ch> nikolam: or just try out the desktop/live cd to see what natively works on your computer <nikolam> I think that I am fullz supported. Just motherboard temperature measurments are weird. <nikolam> But I think about redirectin someone who is buzing something <nikolam> Where to craighoward@example.net. <nikolam> I personally can handle it. <user1> anyone know if i can stream tv to others via the site on my pc?

<wbadger> FFighter, be a bit more specific <FFighter> wbadger, ok <FFighter> wbadger, I used to use GNOME <FFighter> wbadger, my keyboard layout is Brazillian ABTN2 <FFighter> wbadger, just switched to XFCE <wbadger> ok <wbadger> I believe gnome stores it's own keyboard layout <FFighter> wbadger, and the keyboard layout is definetly not Br ABNT2 and I can`t find where to set it up <wbadger> XFCE keyboard layout is set with the file xorg.conf <wbadger> or you could try otherwise <FFighter> wbadger, hmmm... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=66115 <FFighter> wbadger, I think I found the answer =) <wbadger> first lets try opening settings -> keyboard settings <FFighter> wbadger, I can`t find it! <wbadger> oh <wbadger> why not? <FFighter> wbadger, the keyboard settings <wbadger> do you not have a menu or no keyboard settings? <FFighter> wbadger, well, I`ve got a Applications main menu <FFighter> there`s a system submenu <FFighter> but there isn`t a keyboard settings item there <wbadger> yeah but there should also be a settings submenu <wbadger> you don't need the system submenu <FFighter> holy cow, sorry my mistake <FFighter> yeah there is <FFighter> damn lack of attention <wbadger> ;) no problem, happened to me too at first <wbadger> now in the keyboard settings, in the layouts tab, there should be a way to fix this <FFighter> wbadger, yeah, thanks so much <FFighter> =) <wbadger> np ;) <FFighter> hey! <FFighter> Is there a way to assign keyboard shortcuts to switch the workspaces in XFCE: <FFighter> ?

<vanessa_> the menu bar at the top and bottom of the desktop in Xfce that sais "Applications" and stuff <vanessa_> it was there when i installed <wbadger> what happens if you press alt+f2 and enter in that box that pops up "xfce4-panel", and then press enter? <vanessa_> now it is wonderful <vanessa_> thanks! <vanessa_> why would it run from the live CD install and not when i start up? <wbadger> I have no idea <vanessa_> lol <vanessa_> ok! <wbadger> write that command down <vanessa_> ok thanks! <wbadger> np :) <Ahmuck> hi, does xubuntu have a printer setup gui? <Ahmuck> ah, nm, i found it under settings <Ahmuck> !mp3 <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats <Ahmuck> if i want to play dvds in xubuntu, where do find that information? <Ahmuck> if i want to play windows media files, where do i find that information? <rob> Ahmuck, look at the above urls <Ahmuck> those are for ubuntu, which gstreamer i suspect installs some media player? will this work for a memory challenged system? <rob> dvd playback is provided by libdvdcss2 and windows codecs are available in w32codecs, both not distributable by Ubuntu due to legal reasons explained on those pages, but there are details on where to get them <Ahmuck> i guess the questiosn should have been, not distributable in the US? <Ahmuck> or world wide? <rob> most places, so they don't at all, but there is a third party repo called Medibuntu that has them <Ahmuck> ah, ok, so what media player does xubuntu use? <rob> xfmedia is probably best on low-resource computers in conjunction with the right codecs <Ahmuck> ah, i c, gxine <Ahmuck> or xfmedia, k, thx <rob> not sure what the xubuntu default is, personally I find the xubuntu defaults to be way too resource needy for my needs, better alternatives exist for almost everything <Ahmuck> rob: do you have a page with low resource alternatives? <rob> umm no, I only know of them from my own research, I might do a page when I get some spare time. <siimo> xfmedia sucks <siimo> it uses PCM volume control <rob> a couple I can recommend are Epiphany instead of Firefox, and claws-mail instead of Thunderbird/Evolution <siimo> totoally messes with other programs using audio <siimo> stick to audacious for music man <rob> to be honest its rare for me to play back video on this laptop, I'd suspect audacious to be overly resource needy too for music <siimo> for movies i highly recommened VLC Ahmuck <Ahmuck> i've used VLC before <siimo> rob: its much lighter than xfmedia its like an xmms clone <siimo> xfmedia relies on xine backend <siimo> Ahmuck: VLC will play everything + kitchen sink <rob> vlc might be okay, haven't used it in a long time. <rob> same with mplayer <siimo> mplayer / xine are ok but i prefer VLC as it does everything i need without even needing win32codes <rob> mpg123 ftw <siimo> it uses ffmpeg <rob> another thing I use a lot is tilda <rob> I remember kde having something similar <travisbickkl1> how do i open .ai format in linux?
