[03:45] <ball_> This is me connected to the Internet from a laptop running Xubuntu!
[03:45] <cody-somerville> :)
[03:45] <cody-somerville> Welcome
[03:46] <ball_> Thanks
[03:47] <ball_> How do I install irssi?  I ttried "sudo apt-get install irssi", to no avail.
[03:48] <cody-somerville> What does it say?
[03:51] <ball_> E: Unable to locate package irssi
[03:51] <cody-somerville> run: sudo apt-get update
[03:55] <ball_> Thanks
[03:55] <ball_> Running that now.
[04:00] <ball_> :-)
[04:02] <ball> cody-somerville: That feels much more comfortable, thanks.
[04:04] <cody-somerville> np
[05:16] <ball> I love that Comcast cable works with my Xubuntu box
[06:16] <ball> This poor little flash drive is getting a beating.
[06:30] <ball> Okay, bed time I think.
[18:20] <quantumbit> I hate printers
[18:27] <quantumbit> baby baby baby, open your mouth, eat that damn sheet of paper :D
[18:35] <charlie-tca> quantumbit: please don't do that
[18:36] <charlie-tca> This is a family oriented support channel.
[18:41] <quantumbit> hm.. yea I suppose families dont know about feeding babies
[18:42] <charlie-tca> If you just want to chat and complain, we have #xubuntu-offtopic available for that.
[20:14] <peteypan> hello all. im looking for some help. im using 10.10 and all my text is being displayed as squares
[20:16] <charlie-tca> What version of Xfce do you have?
[20:16] <charlie-tca> and what is the last thing you did before it went to squares?
[20:17] <peteypan> i happened last night and its all abit hazy. i was tryin to install 4.8
[20:18] <charlie-tca> I don't think 4.8 is compatible with 10.10. If you use Ctrl+Alt+F2, is the text readable?
[20:26] <peteypan_> no ctrl alt f2 is not displayed as squares
[20:27] <charlie-tca> Then I would suggest removing the ppa for 4.8, and going back to Xfce 4.6.2
[20:27] <peteypan_> could u tell me how
[20:27] <charlie-tca> You will have to do that in the tty, but the only alternative I know is reinstall
[20:27] <charlie-tca> How did you add 4.8?
[20:42] <Calz> hi everyone!
[20:44] <knome> hello
[20:45] <Calz> man, i guess my pc is crazy
[20:45] <Calz> i can`t install any os
[20:45] <Calz> -.-`
[20:46] <Calz> with xubuntu i`m having problems when the installer  starts to download some packs
[20:48] <TheSheep> 'problems'?
[20:48] <TheSheep> tell us about your problems :)
[20:48] <Calz> yeah they ussualy don't run well
[20:49] <Calz> haiuhiuahaiuh
[20:49] <TheSheep> any error messages?
[20:49] <TheSheep> be specific, choose one case
[20:49] <Calz> with kurumin, i'm with kernel problems
[20:50] <Calz> the system is always requesting me to make an upgrade
[20:50] <Calz> but i can't
[20:50] <Calz> with ubuntu
[20:50] <TheSheep> kurumin?
[20:50] <Calz> is an linux based on debian
[20:50] <TheSheep> ah, we only do *ubuntu here
[20:51] <Calz> it's a little old
[20:51] <Calz> ok, srry
[20:51] <TheSheep> please describe a problem you have with ubuntu
[20:51] <TheSheep> maybe the cause is the same and we will be able to fix both
[20:52] <Calz> with the ubuntu i started to upgrade the system and in some part of process it crashed
[20:52] <TheSheep> no messages?
[20:53] <Calz> then i could install it again
[20:53] <Calz> no
[20:53] <Calz> when i woke up
[20:53] <Calz> was everything black
[20:53] <Calz> and i couldn't install it again
[20:53] <Calz> lots of problems on the installer
[20:53] <TheSheep> that was during installation or upgrade of an installed system?
[20:54] <Calz> it was on upgrade
[20:54] <Calz> but since it
[20:54] <Calz> i couldn't install the ubuntu again
[20:54] <Calz> i even format all hd
[20:55] <TheSheep> can you give us anything specific? it's kinda hard to guess from "doesn't work"
[20:55] <Calz> i don't know why, maybe a cd problem but is really new
[20:55] <Calz> now
[20:55] <TheSheep> you may try checking the cd
[20:55] <Calz> i'm trying to install xubuntu
[20:55] <TheSheep> there is an option for that in the boot menu
[20:56] <Calz> yes i burned some
[20:56] <Calz> two with errors, and pearl file
[20:56] <Calz> in a pearl file*
[20:57] <Calz> but now the problems is while i'm downloading something, like language packs
[20:57] <Calz> all file were copied
[20:57] <Calz> now i'm downloading the files
[20:58] <TheSheep> say, how large is the disk you are installing to?
[20:59] <Calz> the partition of the xubuntu has almost 40gb
[20:59] <Calz> and the swap men has 3gb
[20:59] <Calz> the whole disk has 80gb
[21:00] <TheSheep> should be plenty
[21:00] <TheSheep> any disk errors in dmesg?
[21:00] <Calz> srry, what is dmesg?
[21:01] <TheSheep> if you type 'dmesg | less' in a terminal, you will get all the messages from kernel
[21:01] <TheSheep> that's where it logs what's happening
[21:01] <Calz> ohhh
[21:01] <TheSheep> look at the end of it, the beginning is a lot of noise from startup
[21:02] <Calz> now i'm download the language pack
[21:02] <Calz> should i open an terminal or digit it on the installer's one ?
[21:02] <TheSheep> open a new one
[21:03] <Calz> donw
[21:03] <Calz> done*
[21:04] <Calz> the terminal said that it isn't function very well
[21:04] <Calz> and give me an answer
[21:04] <TheSheep> can you type the exact message?
[21:04] <Calz> i copied
[21:04] <Calz> where can a past it ?
[21:05] <Calz> i past it*
[21:05] <TheSheep> http://paste.pocoo.org
[21:05] <TheSheep> here, for example
[21:05] <Calz> ok

[21:07] <Calz> i didn't understand
[21:07] <TheSheep> press the spacebar key
[21:08] <TheSheep> until it scrolls to the end
[21:08] <Calz> ohhhh, ok srry
[21:09] <Calz> now the installer is downloading packages
[21:12] <TheSheep> well, let us know when/if you have any specific problems

[23:57] <VastOne> Looking for a bit of advice... Long time Ubuntu user and not especially thrilled with 11.04 Natty and the whole unity thing...
[23:57] <VastOne> Xubuntu 11.04 and xfce, how does Unity fit in these plans?
[23:58] <VastOne> and more importantly, is this now the right time to jump to Xubuntu?
[23:58] <pleia2> Unity is for Gnome, Xubuntu and XFCE are unrelated
[23:58] <VastOne> I thought so
[23:58] <VastOne> and wanted to be crystal clear
