| stdin | you-say-what-now? | 01:07 |
| genii | You have some multihead setup and only want 1 monitor to show 1 desktop? | 01:07 |
| AAA1 | yes, 1 monitor, 1 desktop, but, my desktop icons don't show up | 01:07 |
| AAA1 | I've highlighted to the left, off the screen and my desktop wallpaper tiles over, meaning that it's way larger then the screen | 01:08 |
| AAA1 | (got back from a trip, turned on my computer, and found it this way) | 01:08 |
| genii | Weird. I had this before when resolution was set higher than the monitor settings. May want to try reducing your default res | 01:09 |

| genii | eg: monitor only does 800x600 res set to 1024x768 then you have to scroll with mouse to see top and side of screen etc | 01:10 |
| dwidmann | here's another solution: Pull up Konqueror, go to ~/Desktop, cut the .desktop files and paste them in your ~ folder. Now drag them back to the desktop | 01:11 |

| _Snatch_ | can anybody help me or give me some intell on how to install java on kubuntu | 02:03 |
| _Snatch_ | ?? | 02:03 |
| stdin | !java | 02:03 |
| ubotu | To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository | 02:03 |
| genii | _Snatch_ Just to do java apps in the web browser or to write java apps? | 02:03 |
| _Snatch_ | yep ive tried that, but doesnt work | 02:03 |
| theholycow | mkfs.ext2 finished | 02:03 |
| genii | on the 500? | 02:04 |
| genii | (full 500) | 02:04 |
| theholycow | yup | 02:04 |
| theholycow | Running tune2fs -j now | 02:04 |
| _Snatch_ | wen i try to install sun-java5-jre it gives me an error | 02:04 |
| stdin | what error ? | 02:05 |
| genii | multiverse likely not in repo list | 02:05 |
| stdin | yeah | 02:06 |
| _Snatch_ | Package sun-java5-jre is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 02:06 |
| _Snatch_ | This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 02:06 |
| _Snatch_ | is only available from another source | 02:06 |
| _Snatch_ | E: Package sun-java5-jre has no installation candidate | 02:06 |
| theholycow | tune2fs -j /dev/sda1 -- finished | 02:06 |
| _Snatch_ | thats the error | 02:06 |
| stdin | _Snatch_: enable multiverse | 02:06 |
| stdin | !multiverse | 02:06 |
| ubotu | The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu | 02:06 |
| genii | theholycow :) | 02:07 |
| _Snatch_ | tried that already | 02:07 |
| _Snatch_ | and it gives me the same error | 02:07 |
| _Snatch_ | you think i should retry? | 02:07 |
| genii | _Snatch_ After modifying /etc/apt/sources.list did you run an sudo apt-get update ? | 02:08 |
| theholycow | added it to fstab (with fs as "auto") and mounted. It shows mounted as ext3. | 02:08 |
| theholycow | sweet! | 02:08 |
| _Snatch_ | yup | 02:08 |
| stdin | _Snatch_: just add a line like "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy multiverse" to your sources.list | 02:08 |
| stdin | ^^ for edgy | 02:08 |
| _Snatch_ | ok | 02:09 |
| genii | theholycow That it refuses to format in ext3 is somehwat distrbing, especially as the cold reboot effect :( | 02:09 |

| stdin | konq is a great file manager, but not the bast web browser | 02:58 |
| theholycow | I've got a theme that was made for probably v7.x. I've got less tabs open than usual, probably a mere 40 or so | 02:58 |
| PF-Away | lol | 02:58 |
| njee | I found the web gestures in konq worked pretty well actually, though its strange and I never seem to use them much :) | 02:59 |
| PF-Away | and still less memory consumed than ff with one tab | 02:59 |
| PF-Away | :P | 02:59 |
| PF-Away | njee: how the heck do you use them? | 02:59 |
| genii | I like that Netscape open-sourced their browser before the Evil Empire absorbed them | 02:59 |
| PF-Away | do you hold down any mouse button, or what? | 02:59 |
| PF-Away | yeah | 02:59 |
| PF-Away | but gecko is/was very ugly, imho | 02:59 |
| njee | I had to enable them system wide for KDE, they work in file manager too | 02:59 |
| PF-Away | njee: how, how, how?;) | 02:59 |
| njee | I don't think the option is in guidance, you need to go into kcontrol | 02:59 |
| PF-Away | is it guidance they call it... | 03:00 |
| PF-Away | i never use it;) | 03:00 |

| ny0n | can someone help me get kubuntu to work with wireles | 03:00 |
| PF-Away | i know where it is | 03:00 |
| ny0n | the card is supported | 03:00 |
| PF-Away | but how do i use them? | 03:00 |
| theholycow | hah! That doesn't say much. Either way I'm looking at huge swaths of my 1gb RAM for each running browser | 03:00 |
| PF-Away | ny0n: go to the k-menu, internet-> wireless assistand | 03:01 |
| PF-Away | *t | 03:01 |
| ny0n | i tried that | 03:01 |
| ny0n | no network sfound | 03:01 |
| njee | oh right, I have mine set to mouse button 2 cause thats what I used to use in firefox......I just hold down mouse 2 and do left and right to go back and forwards....I think mouse3 is default | 03:01 |
| ny0n | no networks found* | 03:01 |
| PF-Away | ny0n: well, do you have networks there? | 03:01 |
| genii | Is there a way to replace mouse with joystick for pointing device? I have a friend with MS no fine finger control. His windoze has something called JoyMouse like that | 03:01 |
| ny0n | yes | 03:01 |
| ny0n | i have a network | 03:01 |

| ny0n | i'm on my laptop | 03:01 |

| PF-Away | ny0n: try running "iwlist s" | 03:02 |
| ny0n | k | 03:02 |
| njee | PF-away: okay so there's a listing of gestures | 03:02 |
| PF-Away | genii: i know there is something, since i was trying to find it for my win95 machine, but only found stuff for linux | 03:02 |
| PF-Away | :P | 03:02 |
| ny0n | lo = interface doesn't support scanning | 03:02 |

| genii | PF-Away thx | 03:02 |
| ny0n | am i looking for anything specific in dmesg? | 03:03 |
| njee | PF-away: on the general tab these's a listing of all the konqueror gestures, back forward, reload etc | 03:03 |
| PF-Away | ny0n: errors? | 03:03 |
| PF-Away | njee: found it... | 03:03 |
| ny0n | yea | 03:03 |
| ny0n | i see afew bcm43xx: error;s | 03:03 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about accessibility - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi | 03:04 |
| genii | Hmm | 03:04 |
| njee | PF-away: have you enabled mouse gestures globally? | 03:04 |
| PF-Away | njee: never found that "global settings" thingy before;) | 03:04 |
| PF-Away | njee: i think so | 03:04 |
| ny0n | microcode "bcm32xx_microcode5.fw" not available or load failed | 03:04 |
| genii | bcm43xx = Broadcom .... | 03:04 |
| PF-Away | njee: where do i activate it globally? | 03:04 |
| genii | You need the fwcutter solution etc etc | 03:05 |
| njee | PF-away: for some reason the menu gets screwed up if you click on the gesture settings (love KDE usability :) ) | 03:05 |
| njee | PF-away: so you have to click on say "accessibilty" and then back on "input actions" to get all the tabs back | 03:05 |

| PF-Away | no, it's me who's going blind;) | 03:07 |
| njee | PF-away: what I was saying is once you click on the gestures listing it causes the other tabs under that option to disappear, so just close kcontrol and reopen it to start from scratch | 03:07 |
| PF-Away | i was staring at the tickbox | 03:07 |

| Red_Tear | but at all 220.1 kb would be very small | 06:27 |
| Red_Tear | its a .rar | 06:27 |
| Red_Tear | before compromizing it it was 106 mb big.... so at all 220.1 kb would be very small for that but.... it says it would be just that small... | 06:27 |

| dutta | could you please tell me how to mount a drive? I cant access them | 07:48 |
| dutta | hello spmeone there | 07:49 |
| dutta | ? | 07:49 |
| umalone | The basic syntax is: mount -t type device dir | 07:49 |
| umalone | type being the file system | 07:49 |
| umalone | device is the name of the device you want to mount | 07:50 |
| hepme | is the Adept package manager a product of KDE or is it kubuntu specific? I ask because it allows you to manage repositories but not all linux distros use apt-get like repositories yet can still run KDE | 07:50 |
| umalone | dir is the mount point | 07:50 |
| dutta | can you give me an example? | 07:51 |
| Jucato | hepme: it's the default package manager in Kubuntu, but Adept is in KDE's SVN, so that would also make it a KDE app. so far, it only works with APT/DEB based systems, afaik | 07:52 |
| umalone | dutta: mount -t ntfs /dev/hda2 /media/windows | 07:53 |

| ThomasZ | Hiya; I'm trying to install kubuntu from the live-CD but the installer doesn't work (fails to see that I _did_ actually select a root partition). Any alternatives to installing it? | 12:10 |
| ThomasZ | ForgeAus: hiya :) | 12:10 |
| === Bubba_Gump [n=chatzill@90.240.10.51] has joined #kubuntu | ||

| === stefan [n=stefan@nat-1.man.sealnet.kluczbork.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| ThomasZ | ForgeAus: it jus tells me "No root file system". Not sure why. | 12:11 |
| ForgeAus | ahhh you need to manage your partition | 12:12 |
| ThomasZ | ForgeAus: I used a konsole to fdisk and mkreiserfs | 12:12 |
| ThomasZ | manage? | 12:12 |
| ForgeAus | yeah use the parted (cant' remember if its gparted or qtparted in the kubuntu installer its easier | 12:12 |
| === jacek [n=jacek@gw-lan.mcon.pl] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| ForgeAus | let them make your partition for you and install once its done | 12:12 |
| ForgeAus | I had a similar problem first time | 12:13 |
| ThomasZ | does that allow reiserFS by now? | 12:13 |
| ThomasZ | In dapper it didnt | 12:13 |
| ForgeAus | but if oyu fiddle with it (in the same drivespace) you should manage to fix it | 12:13 |
| ForgeAus | I'm not sure I'm using ext3 | 12:13 |
| Jucato | ThomasZ: still no reiser... the problem is with QtParted | 12:13 |
| ThomasZ | ext3 is too fragile for me. | 12:13 |
| ForgeAus | (sometimes ti reports as reiserfs strangely enough) | 12:13 |
| Jucato | (or at least the version of QtParted that they use) | 12:13 |
| henyar | hi everyone | 12:14 |
| ForgeAus | fragile? how? | 12:14 |
| henyar | I am in big trouble | 12:14 |
| ThomasZ | well, then how do I convince the installer that if I have a partition that is mounted at / that it _is_ the root filesystem... | 12:14 |
| neoncode | deleteing the ".hidden" file in / won't do anything appart from un-hide everything right? | 12:14 |
| ForgeAus | I don't know much about filesystems aside from the general ext* is inode based, mac HPFS has resource forks, and FAT's have file allocation tables (not even sure if NTFS works similar to fat or not) | 12:15 |
| henyar | yesterday I was dividing in two a video | 12:15 |
| Jucato | !hidden | neoncode | 12:15 |
| ubotu | neoncode: Kubuntu Edgy has implemented a new feature that hides most of the filesystem. For more information: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuHiddenFiles | 12:15 |
| henyar | and everything froze | 12:15 |
| ThomasZ | ForgeAus: after rebooting the ext3 system without properly shutting it down I get consisten data corruption :) So I switched back to reiserFS :) | 12:15 |
| henyar | and now the pc won't start properly | 12:15 |
| ForgeAus | ahh dismounting... yeah I heard something about that | 12:16 |
| henyar | "/home is not beeing mounted | 12:16 |
| henyar | and / is mounted readonly | 12:16 |
| === fox_ [n=fox@221.166.129.28] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| ForgeAus | Thomas, perhaps you should be as careful as possible to shutdown? | 12:16 |
| henyar | and I got messages from sda | 12:17 |
| ForgeAus | its always better to do before you reboot anyway | 12:17 |
| ForgeAus | I do understand however if an appor something crashes.... | 12:17 |

| Red_Tear_1 | hmm | 12:18 |
| Red_Tear_1 | erection reset by beer | 12:18 |
| ForgeAus | are you implying theres something improper about ext3? | 12:18 |
| neoncode | Jucato: thank you | 12:19 |
| henyar | how can I remount rw the / partition? | 12:19 |
| ThomasZ | ForgeAus: i'm only stating that I get file corruption within a couple of weeks every time I try out ext3. And a theory on why. | 12:19 |
| === mats [n=mats@unaffiliated/mats] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| ThomasZ | ForgeAus: anyway; off topic. I want to install using reiserFS. And the installer doesn't seem to allow me to do that. | 12:19 |
| ForgeAus | then maybe you should contribute your insights into those working on the filesystem to improve it? | 12:20 |
| henyar | It has already passed fsck.ext3 with -fy | 12:20 |

| ThomasZ | ForgeAus: the bugreport was ignored stating that even while ext3 is journalling; I should not expect it to bring the advantages I expect (and actually get from other journalling FSes). *shrug* | 12:21 |
| henyar | looks like neoncode too | 12:21 |
| ForgeAus | Thomas, good luck but I suggest using ext3 | 12:21 |
| Red_Tear_1 | Im using dapper drake point one and in Graphical user interface it shows the size of one file wrong | 12:21 |
| Red_Tear_1 | 220.1 kb it shows | 12:22 |
| neoncode | henyar: I didn't realy have troubble with it, I knew that the files were hidden I just didn't want them to be. | 12:22 |

| HymnToLife | Xera, we don't use su in Ubuntu - by default at least | 02:15 |
| rich4534 | didn't work | 02:15 |
| HymnToLife | !sudo | rich4534 | 02:15 |
| ubotu | rich4534: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 02:15 |
| Xera | HymnToLife: huh? i've always used su | 02:16 |

| cntb | on one system I still have Ctrl-Alt-+ functionality. Here Iwant that too Jucato | 03:24 |
| Topsun | there is also the map command as Jucato said | 03:24 |
| FJ_Sanchez | The noverify options doesn't work | 03:25 |
| Jucato | FJ_Sanchez: map (hd0,0) (hd0,5) and (on another line) map (hd0,5) (hd0,0) | 03:25 |

| rhainur | erm | 03:25 |
| Jucato | FJ_Sanchez: put the rootnoverify that Topsun gave after the second map line and above the chainloader line | 03:25 |

| Tal | :O | 03:32 |
| Jucato | rhainur: device and interface. but less to do with themes/appearance | 03:32 |
| Jucato | bottom line: it doesn't belong in "appearance" | 03:32 |
| lord_ceiphas | got a bit of a problem to get my kubuntu edgy (with selfcompiled kernel 2.6.19.1) to recognize, that my mouse has 12 buttons, not 9 | 03:32 |
| Tal | ok Jucato : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/109/ | 03:33 |
| FJ_Sanchez | Jucato: with makeactive still getting error 12 | 03:33 |
| Tal | thats the menu.lst | 03:33 |
| lord_ceiphas | if i put the "buttons" in the xorg.conf and run xmodmap afterwards, i get a message "only updating first 9 of 12 | 03:33 |

| rich4534 | anyone know how to match the resolution of the pc to that of the startup splash screens..when kubuntu loads | 03:34 |
| Topsun | rich4534: does the vga command not work? | 03:34 |
| Jucato | Tal: where's the Windows entry? I thought you wanted to boot into Windows first? | 03:35 |
| Jucato | Tal, and afaik, you can't boot into Windows, then press Esc to choose to boot into Windows or Kubuntu | 03:35 |
| rich4534 | it looks like this | 03:35 |
| lord_ceiphas | got a similar problem here... after booting kubuntu and starting x, the monitor goes of (wrong sync) if i switch to vt1 and then back to vt7 it works... | 03:35 |
| Jucato | Tal: I think what you're trying to do is to see the GRUB menu at startup, right? | 03:36 |
| rich4534 | ## e.g defoptions=vga=798 resume=/dev/hda5 | 03:36 |
| Jucato | Tal: in line 23, change "hiddenmenu" to "#hiddenmenu" | 03:36 |

| Tal | now its gone. | 03:37 |
| Tal | yes. | 03:37 |
| Tal | im almost certain that i added an entry to the bottom of the menu.lst file | 03:37 |
| Jucato | Tal: did you put the Windows entry above this line? "### END DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST" | 03:37 |
| Tal | yes i think i did | 03:37 |
| Jucato | because if you did, then that's the problem | 03:37 |
| Tal | but it worked got almost a year? | 03:38 |
| Tal | so why has it changed | 03:38 |
| Tal | for* | 03:38 |
| Jucato | Tal: anything above that line gets rewritten whenever you upgrade kernels | 03:38 |
| Tal | :o | 03:38 |
| lord_ceiphas | have you used "update-grub"? | 03:38 |
| Jucato | that's the AUTOMAGIC kernels list... | 03:38 |

| Topsun | rich4534: you have to add 'vga=791' to the line below | 03:40 |
| Tal | got one :) | 03:40 |
| Jucato | Tal: basically, you have to manually make the Windows entry *below* that line | 03:40 |
| Tal | thats what im after Jucato | 03:40 |
| Tal | :P | 03:40 |
| lord_ceiphas | topsun, how do i get to this value? | 03:40 |
| Topsun | # defoptions=quiet splash vga=791 | 03:40 |
| Topsun | which value? | 03:40 |
| Tal | you know what the entry is? | 03:40 |
| lord_ceiphas | 791 | 03:40 |
| rich4534 | 798 | 03:40 |
| Jucato | Tal: make sure that the "root (hdx,x)" value points to the correct partition | 03:40 |
| Jucato | Tal: the one you flooded the channel with, minus the #'s :) | 03:41 |
| lord_ceiphas | this value is dependant of resolution and graphics card | 03:41 |
| cntb | also you can backup bad menu.lst rename it at create new one thru grub-install Ithink | 03:41 |
| Tal | ok, and which partition is that? | 03:41 |
| cntb | Right Jucato? | 03:41 |
| Topsun | search for the value, it sets the resolution | 03:41 |
| Jucato | Tal: er.. don't you remember? | 03:41 |
| Tal | remember that the windows is on a different hd? | 03:41 |
| lord_ceiphas | yeah, but how do i get a list of possibnle values? | 03:41 |

| dimsuz | as i think xorg packages are important and a lot of users have already installed it... so this maybe a common problem | 05:49 |

| fdoving | jjlee: a virtual package is a package that does not exist, it's just provided by other packages. like for example: 'mail-transport-agent', it does not exist, but postfix, sendmail, exim and others provide it. | 06:06 |

| dwidmann | intelikey: of course | 06:08 |
| fdoving | intelikey: true. virtual packages are not meta packages. | 06:08 |
| jjlee | fdoving: sure -- but that does not in itself imply removing it will not remove package(s) satisfying the "virtual" thingy. But that's academic: in ubuntu clearly it does. | 06:08 |
| jjlee | does notm I mean | 06:08 |

| dwidmann | intelikey: that was a known bug, I'm pretty sure that was fixed in Edgy too | 06:16 |
| jjlee | I mean after switching to free nvidia drivers | 06:16 |
| dwidmann | If you want it fixed in dapper, I think you have to add somtehing to some rc file somewhere in your ~/.kde folder | 06:16 |
| intelikey | dwidmann but why wasn't it fixed in dapper.... it's supposed to be supported for 3 years minimum | 06:17 |
| HymnToLife | rich321, if you're in Dapper, you have to mually install the build from mozilla.com | 06:17 |
| dwidmann | supported for security updates, that says nothing about fixing bugs, apparantly. | 06:17 |

| jjlee | fdoving: but if I'm not sure...? Is there some explicit state in the package metadata that marks it as a metapackage, or does that term simply mean "Package containing no files that depends on lots of other packages"? | 07:04 |

| jjlee | fdoving: nothing, except the usual blizzard of gdk-pixbuf / firefox errors (which *is* a bit worrying) | 09:14 |
| fdoving | jjlee: ok. | 09:14 |
| jjlee | I guess I'm unusual in never moving windows or opening konqueror on a directory, though | 09:15 |

| _Shade_ | hi there | 09:18 |
| dsmith | ok, jjlee. kpdf viewer will not open the pdf I just created, another hmmm | 09:18 |
| jjlee | ksmith: have you tried acroread? | 09:19 |
| _Shade_ | when i try to boot an ubuntu cd on my new machine i got a kernel panic message. What can i do to fix this up? | 09:19 |
| dsmith | what version shade? | 09:19 |
| _Shade_ | this applies to edgy and dapper | 09:20 |
| _Shade_ | both: kubuntu and ubuntu | 09:21 |
| dsmith | acroread, as in acrobat reader? | 09:21 |

| ellipsis | I know | 09:29 |
| ellipsis | but I want a different window manager | 09:29 |
| jjlee | ellipsis: log out, then do your config changes from a terminal, then kill -1 <pid of X> | 09:30 |

| ellipsis | and it's still too....I won't say difficult...it's too irritating. | 09:34 |
| hepme | i wonder if i can talk some libraries into running ubuntu livecd for the operating system so their machines will be safer for web browsing heh | 09:34 |
| ellipsis | I'm tired of sudo-ing into everything | 09:34 |
| ellipsis | and doing everything from the console. | 09:34 |
| ellipsis | the linux gui's are essentially USELESS. | 09:34 |
| === coreymon77 [n=coreymon@unaffiliated/coreymon77] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| ellipsis | because every single app uses the console for it's setup, more or less | 09:35 |
| hepme | ellipsis: then maybe you shouldnt use linux.. it's made for people who see the value of those things, or you can learn t osee the value | 09:35 |
| ellipsis | unless it's lucky enough to be a package. | 09:35 |
| K`zan | Under gentoo's kde under the "add applet to panel" there is a dictionary lookup applet, how do I add that to kubuntu? | 09:35 |
| hepme | you might like OS X better | 09:35 |
| ellipsis | what exactly is the value of those things? | 09:35 |
| hepme | security, power | 09:35 |
| ellipsis | but the thing is | 09:35 |
| hepme | speed even | 09:35 |
| ellipsis | I don't need that power. | 09:35 |
| hepme | though it seems slower to the uninitialized | 09:35 |

| fdoving | K`zan: install 'kdict' | 09:36 |
| ellipsis | because I'm not very happy with what MS has done with Vista? | 09:36 |
| jjlee | ellipsis: I honestly find Windows more of a PITA and harder to understand, though I certainly also find linux a PITA too :-) | 09:36 |
| soulrider | ellipsis: vista sucks ass, have you seen those annoying secutity warnongs ? | 09:37 |
| jjlee | Tried to install a TV card on Windows a while back, horrendous experience | 09:37 |
| ellipsis | erm | 09:37 |
| soulrider | jjlee: PITA ? | 09:37 |
| ellipsis | I just SAID that I want to switch to linux because vista sucks ass | 09:37 |
| ellipsis | not in so many words | 09:37 |
| ellipsis | but yeah | 09:37 |
| jjlee | soulrider: GIYF | 09:37 |
| hepme | ellipsis: once you get your ubuntu box config'd to your custom desires you'll probably love it if not then i'd suggest OS X | 09:37 |
| ellipsis | man | 09:37 |
| ellipsis | a word of advice | 09:37 |
| ellipsis | "suggesting" os x is much easier than shelling out the cash for it. | 09:37 |
| ellipsis | I just bought a new dell laptop like 2 months ago. | 09:38 |
| K`zan | fdoving: Thanks VERY much! | 09:38 |
| ellipsis | see, I'm happy with windows xp | 09:38 |
| hepme | well it's a s uperior os to linux and so if you don't like ubuntu it's the next logical step. anythin but going back to windows right? | 09:38 |
| fdoving | K`zan: you're welcome :) | 09:38 |
| ellipsis | but I'm trying to get off the windows boat before I'm forced to upgrade to vista | 09:38 |
| jjlee | soulrider: http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=GIYF | 09:38 |
| ellipsis | but the problem is | 09:38 |
| hepme | ellipsis: what happens in a few years when xp is no longer supported by microsoft or somethin | 09:38 |
| ellipsis | ummm | 09:38 |
| soulrider | ellipsis: i switched to linux 6 months ago, at first i felt like you feel now | 09:39 |
| === ellipsis points to his previous sentence | ||
| hepme | you coulda ended up a Unix master by then instead youj'll just then be startin to get back into it out of force :P | 09:39 |
| hepme | i see | 09:39 |
| soulrider | but you will start to realize how much better the console is than the gui for some things | 09:39 |
| ellipsis | erm | 09:39 |
| ellipsis | it IS better than the GUI for some things | 09:39 |
| K`zan | hepme: I know people still using CP/M and TRS-80 model ones because they still do what they needed done :-). | 09:39 |
| ellipsis | and I use the console in win xp a lot | 09:39 |
| ellipsis | but the thing is | 09:39 |
| hepme | well that really is the only advice i have. keep at ubuntu until you start loving it or shell out cash for mac/OSX. either is far better than windows | 09:39 |
| hepme | install beryl if you want to impress your vista loving friends | 09:40 |
| ellipsis | I don't like having to EVERYTHING from the console, it's f**king irritating to keep on typing ./comfigure; make; make install | 09:40 |
| ellipsis | and then doing a bajillion things to install every darn thing | 09:40 |
| K`zan | ellipsis: Stick with it, it will be WELL worth it in the end. m$ is a dead end. | 09:40 |
| hepme | you dont have to do everythin from the console, kde has awsome QT gui apps | 09:40 |

| jjlee | ellipsis: you pays your money and takes your choice I'm afraid. Take it or leave it | 09:42 |
| ellipsis | see, the difference between the average linux oss app, and the average windows oss app is, the windows oss apps have installers. so you can get the app running, and then browse through the source at your leisure and modify it if you need to | 09:43 |

| hepme | ellipsis: you dont have to | 09:43 |
| ellipsis | anyway | 09:43 |
| soulrider | and compiling isnt hard | 09:43 |
| ellipsis | long story short | 09:43 |

| fdoving | windwalker: it's talking about x screens, :0 is your current desktop session. and I doubt you want tightvnc, i think you want 'x11vnc'. tightvnc will need to open a new session to connect to via vnc. x11vnc allows you to share your current session. | 09:59 |
