[11:33] <sebas_> how do I enable remote desktop?
[11:33] <ToHellWithGA> lol
[11:33] <ToHellWithGA> sebas_: it's a bit more than that
[11:34] <ToHellWithGA> sebas_: i'd check out FreeNX or VNC if you want something like windows remote desktop
[11:34] <ToHellWithGA> FreeNX is my current favorite
[11:36] <aa_> hi, how can I stop an application starting when I put an audio cd in?
[11:36] <aa_> (desperate)
[11:37] <ToHellWithGA> aa_: how much time do you have?
[11:37] <ToHellWithGA> i don't have xubuntu on this box but could load up an old laptop in about 5 minutes
[11:37] <ToHellWithGA> s/load up/boot/
[11:37] <aa_> ToHellWithGA: I have time, just no network connection :)
[11:45] <ToHellWithGA> aa_: holla holla
[11:46] <aa_> ToHellWithGA: :)
[11:46] <ToHellWithGA> applications menu (top left, with the logo) -> settings -> settings manager
[11:46] <ToHellWithGA> there should be a bunch of icons like a windows control panel now
[11:46] <ToHellWithGA> choose "file manager" and in it the "advanced" tab
[11:46] <aa_> right
[11:47] <aa_> YAYYY
[11:47] <ToHellWithGA> at the bottom of that tab is "enable volume management"
[11:47] <aa_> ToHellWithGA: brilliant
[11:47] <ToHellWithGA> that is like autostart
[11:47] <ToHellWithGA> and the little blue link has the details
[11:47] <ToHellWithGA> so you can launch what you want
[11:47] <ToHellWithGA> cheers
[11:47] <aa_> just unchecked about 60 things
[11:48] <ToHellWithGA> .me lols
[11:48] <ToHellWithGA> you could just uncheck some and change programs for others
[11:48] <ToHellWithGA> i like launching mplayer when a DVD is inserted
[11:49] <aa_> I don't think I can think of a worse punishment
[11:49] <aa_> my wife needs a mix cd for a party tomorrow
[11:49] <ToHellWithGA> i'm a big fan of k3b for cd burning
[11:49] <aa_> and I was killall ing xine evey 10 seconds
[11:49] <aa_> and my network card just died before I could install a ripper
[11:50] <ToHellWithGA> i don't like the default gnomebaker thing in ubuntu, and i've not tried the default xubuntu burner
[11:50] <aa_> so I am using mplayer -ao pcm
[11:50] <aa_> yeah k3b for me
[11:50] <ToHellWithGA> mplayer -vo caca
[11:50] <ToHellWithGA> <3 ascii video
[11:51] <aa_> hehe, yeah nice one
[11:52] <aa_> well, thanks for your help, you were a life saver
[12:06] <cjae> ok I have a question why if I have this for my menu entry is it elsewhere?? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21620/
[12:06] <cjae> The nvidia settings are under other where all my wine stuff goes
[12:07] <cjae> in my app menu
[12:07] <cjae> "Categories=Application;System;"
[12:09] <kalikiana> Why would apt not find opera? I activated every repository but restricted.
[12:10] <TheSheep> kalikiana: get the deb from opera.com
[12:10] <TheSheep> kalikiana: I think it's not in the repos
[12:10] <kalikiana> TheSheep, I am pretty sure Opera was in Edgy's repos, so did they remove it in Feisty?
[12:11] <kalikiana> !info opera
[12:11] <ubotu> Package opera does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[12:11] <Seveas> !info opera feisty-commercial
[12:11] <ubotu> Package opera does not exist in feisty
[12:11] <Seveas> hmm
[12:12] <cjae> !opera
[12:12] <ubotu> opera is an advanced and free (only as in price) web browser.  Install it via Applications->Add/Remove..., making sure that "Show commercial applications" (dapper only) is checked. For more info on opera please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser
[12:13] <cjae> anyone here got any idea ?? I have to restart x so I must go I ll be back
[12:13] <cjae> using xchat
[12:14] <qaz> can any1 help me install network-manager?
[12:15] <kalikiana> Seveas, I download from opera.com now - but it seems Opera was "forgotten" somehow in Feisty, was it?
[12:15] <Seveas> kalikiana, or opera did not allow it
[12:15] <kalikiana> qaz, You mean just installing the package? Type 'sudo apt-get install network-manager'
[12:15] <cjae_> anyone figure it out
[12:16] <cjae_> why does menu editing suck so bad??
[12:16] <cjae_> this wm is amazing aside from this drawback
[12:16] <qaz> i'm trying to do it through synptic but it won't let me
[12:16] <TheSheep> cjae_: it's all becuse of the cyclists
[12:16] <cjae_> TheSheep, ??
[12:16] <kalikiana> qaz, What is the probnlem/ error message?
[12:17] <TheSheep> cjae_: someone has to be guilty
[12:17] <qaz> the other problem is it's not in the internet yet =(
[12:17] <cjae_> TheSheep, do you see any error in what I have done
[12:18] <TheSheep> cjae_: no, but I can't test it here
[12:18] <kalikiana> qaz, You mean the computer is offline? In that case you should install from a cd or flash memory.
[12:18] <TheSheep> cjae_: I have svn version of xfce that handles menus differently
[12:19] <qaz> yeah i have the tar but i can't figure out how to install it
[12:19] <TheSheep> qaz: you need the deb
[12:19] <cjae_> TheSheep, but my Categories=Application;System;(Settings)
[12:19] <cjae_> seems ok
[12:19] <qaz> i have no clue how to use the make command
[12:20] <qaz> where can i get the new deb?
[12:20] <TheSheep> qaz: packages.ubuntu.com
[12:20] <cjae_> TheSheep, the part in brackets is what I just added because another menu entry had it w/o brackets is what I have at first
[12:21] <cjae_> had at first
[12:22] <cjae_> !purge
[12:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about purge - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:22] <cjae_> how do I purge again
[12:22] <cjae_> wine
[12:22] <cjae_> cause I think it is the culprit
[12:23] <qaz> wow my bad i was looking at it before but it says it's a tar too but when u go to down load it sure enough it's a deb
[12:24] <cjae_> !info purge
[12:24] <TheSheep> cjae_: why wine?
[12:24] <ubotu> Package purge does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[12:25] <TheSheep> cjae_: have you tried to do xfdesktop --reload ?
[12:25] <TheSheep> cjae_: sudo apt-get remove --purge wine
[12:26] <cjae_> TheSheep, cause that is where my nvidia settings are going and I constantly have issues reguarding the other menu entry
[12:26] <cjae_> would crt alt <- not be the same as xfdesktop --reload
[12:26] <TheSheep> cjae_: you may want to examine the rules that govern how the entries are created
[12:27] <cjae_> I thiught is was dpkg -purge *.deb
[12:27] <TheSheep> cjae_: I think the ya re in /etc/xdg/menus/
