User5: xubuntu devs, take note on that
User5: there is no way acceptable that i have to launch nautilus to umount the external drive
User5: i should not even have nautilus installed
User5: xubuntu rocks, but must fix this details
User5: regards
User6: User5 i would try sudo
User6: !mount | asterismo
User7: User5 mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount
User6: i dont have nautilus installed...
User8: How to install debuge2fs on 12.10? Software Center does not have it, bash returns command not found

User13: hi all, some tips to reset main applications menu?
User14: Hi try setting manager > main menu > Restore System Configuration
User15: help installation stops at update-notifier-common
User15: installation stops at
User15: 7 14:09:26 xubuntu ubiquity: Processing triggers for update-notifier-common ...
User15: can you see my text?
User16: hi all, after the update my monitor settings get a bit messed up. It was 1440 * 900 and now is 1024 * 768. Its a samsung syncmaster 931bw. Can anyone help me? I get a bit confuse. thx in advance.
User6: User16 you can eleborate about "the update".. i would look at a few things that could be broken.. if you have a custom xorg.conf in place from a proprietary nvidia driver for example, that was changed.. also, you can try booting an earlier kernel
User16: hi holstein .. just a minute
User16: holstein, i think youre right. i use to have nvidia driver, but i think the xubuntu offered me to download it
User16: in the older version, holstein
User6: !nvidia
User7: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto
User6: im not sure if you did an update, or a distro upgrade.. or a reintall to a new version
User6: i might just try setting the resolution in the tool of your choice
User16: thats what im tryong right now.
User16: but its all updated here, holstein
User6: User16 sure, but im not sure if you did an update or an upgrade.. or a fresh install.. what operating system are you using?
User16: xubuntu 12
User16: use to be 11
User6: User16 12.04? 12.10? used to be 11.04? 11.10? you upgraded? and things broke?
User6: User16 have you tried just setting the resolution?
User2: moreno_br, paste the results of: lsb_release -ir
User16: ok
User16: lsb?
User16: sb_release -ir
User2: moreno_br, yes, its to know exactly wich version of xubuntu you are using
User16: Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
User16: Release:	12.10
User16: use t be 11.10 i think
User2: very good, now you should have a tab on the Ubuntu Software Centre, called "Aditional Drivers", in that tab you can control wich drivers are in use or not
User17: ^ if there are no Additional Drivers, some other problem, you can just install from Synaptic nvidia-current and nvidia-settings
User16: oh, i prefer synaptic
User16: think its simpler
User17: i'm just saying bc Additional Drivers was once there for me on 12.10, once gone (not sure what i did exactly when)
User17: but i think it was in the Settings Manager, not Software Center like mentioned above
User17: User16 just be careful if for some reason you need the nuevo drivers and the regular ones won't work on your box
User16: ok
User16: ill try it now
User16: thamks
User16: thanks
User18: Hi evbdy!
User18: I'm having a really big problem installing Xubuntu 12.10
User18: Is there andybody, that could help mi get it right?
User18: The problem is the video driver (I guess...)
User18: The installer leaves a blank screen
User2: !details | dareq
User7: User18 Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..."
User18: I tried to run it with the parameter vga=791, but it didn't work - the firts splashscreen
User18: displayed correctly
User18: But then it turned off again, so now I can't install the system :/
User18: I'm using a Compaq Evo N150
User18: It's a PIII laptop with Trident CyberBlade/i1 v-card
User18: Is it possible to run the installer in text-mode from the basic LiveCD?
User2: not on 12.10
User2: you need to use or 12.04 alternate iso, or the mini
User2: !mini
User7: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
User18: I'm currently out of blank cd-s :/ Can I burn it somehow on a pendrive?
User2: !unetbootin | dareq
User7: User18 For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
User18: Thank you - I'll try to run it with the mini-iso.
User18: One more question: the lap is currently running a Xubuntu 9.10. Any ideas, why it can't get any repositories?
User6: 9.10 is EOL
User2: ^
User6: you can always host your own
User18: ?
User18: Can you explain?
User19: hola q tal :)
User19: acabo de instalar xubuntu 12.04 lts
User20: ohai

User24: Does Xubuntu use printtool?
User17: User24 looks like http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/gutsy/man1/printtool.1.html
User17: although hm it's not installeed
User24: Thanks v1adimir
User17: ball, sure!.. but, not sure I helped :))
User25: hello helpers
User26: hello
User25: trying to install on 2002 dell inspiron but
User25: get: this kernel requires the following features not present on the cpu: pae
User25: ??
User26: i have install alast ubuntu on my netbook dualcore 4gb ram.. and all is ok
User25: anyone home??
User26: now i have the connection (internet) .. i want use the netbook wifi like accesspoint is possible?
User17: PAE is provided by Intel Pentium Pro and above CPUs, including all later Pentium-series processors (except most 400 MHz-bus versions of the Pentium M). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension
User17: @ xubuntu420
User24: User17 You did.
User17: cool :$
User25: so xubuntu wont work on it?
User24: hello xubuntu420
User17: User25 idk., maybe you have an ancient computer?
User24: User25 Are you installing 32- or 64- bit?
User17: ^ oh sorry
User25: 32 pretty sure. got same message with Puppy linux
User24: Strange.
User25: ya i just watched a video of a guy putting both on a laptop - looks just like mine from about same year - 2002-3
User17: found a bunch of stuff @ https://www.google.com/search?q=xubuntu+this+kernel+requires+the+following+features+not+present+on+the+cpu%3A+pae (like http://askubuntu.com/questions/117744/how-can-i-install-on-a-non-pae-cpu-error-kernel-requires-features-not-present)
User17: seems like you could try installing an older version, then upgrading among other things
User25: ok
User17: but not sure :f
User17: User25 maybe the alternate cd install will work
User17: *also
User25: alternate cd?
User27: !alternate
User7: The alternate CD has been discontinued for the main Ubuntu distro, please use and report any bugs in the !LiveCD
User17: meh :\
User10: there used to be a pae kernel
User10: !find pae
User7: Found: linux-generic-pae, linux-headers-generic-pae, linux-image-generic-pae, fonts-ipaexfont, fonts-ipaexfont-gothic, fonts-ipaexfont-mincho, linux-headers-lowlatency-pae, linux-image-lowlatency-pae, linux-lowlatency-pae, otf-ipaexfont (and 2 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=pae&searchon=names&suite=quantal&section=all
User10: there still is a pae kernell
User28: User10 It's all PAE now.
User28: Only option.
User25: hmm not sure what I'm seeing at that link??
User24: Is there a non-PAE kernel for those 32-bit machines that don't support it?
User24: s/kernel/disc/
User28: User24 Not officially.
User17: http://askubuntu.com/questions/182048/will-it-be-possible-to-use-a-non-pae-kernel-in-12-10 :(
User24: That's unfortunate, but I can understand the rationale.
User17: lol just found something, but he's gone :s http://www.webupd8.org/2012/05/how-to-install-ubuntu-1204-on-non-pae.html
User17: and i guess it's fairly simple to add the kernel to the Quantal mini-iso for example http://www.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/quantal/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/
User2: ball, 12.04, thats LTS, and its NON pae supported
User10: it might have an amd cpu
User10: oops
User17: oh i just read more about it, nvm
User17: anyone else's file-roller crashes on right-click extract here?
User17: on 12.10 - i can only extract by opening and dragging-out (seems to be the thunar plugin?)
User29: That hasn't been an issue for me on 12.04 or 12.10
User17: 12.04 was fine, but on 12.10 fresh install it hasn't worked yet :(
User29: Maybe try purging thunar and the associate plugin and trying it again?
User17: yea, hm; tnx.. User29 what do you think about switching over to Xarchiver (and trying to plug it into Thunar)?
User28: User24 You figure out how to get it on your non-PAE box?
User24: User28 I'm not sure whether I have any non-PAE boxen. The question was originally asked by someone else.
User28: Ah, my bad.  (grep pae /proc/cpuinfo tells it)
User24: Thanks Unit193
User28: Sure thing.
User17: (even extract to.. works, just the extract here is the problem; meh)
User30: Ah well, time to head home.
User29: User17 I honestly don't know if there's an xarchiver plugin for thunar, much less whether or not it works well.
User17: User29 yeah, cool.. guess i will just have to live without extract here, until like an update drops; wasn't able to figure it out. :f
User17: (fresh default install)
User29: User17 Ha ha. That's no fun, but if you keep your /home directory on a different partition that makes things way easier.
User17: User29 meant to look into that also, for upgrades / reinstalls; ehh.. one day :)
User29: Although I've gotta say, cloud storage is making that option less important. Then again, I don't have a whole lot of data, so backing it up to Google Drive and then letting things download overnight works pretty well for me after a clean install.
User31: Buona sera a tutti
User31: avrei una domanda do porvi
User31: ops nessuno risponde
User31: come mai ?
User31: mi sentite dalle vostre tiepide case, in questa notte invernle al focolare del vostro pc ?
User32: hi
User31: finalmente :-)
User32: xubuntu220, I'm sorry I do not speak uhh.. spanish? But perhaps someone here does if you can ask your question if not yet already and they'll get to you when they can
