| student1 | trying to use xboard to teach myself chess. extends so far down the screen that 1/2 the pieces are covered by the panel(?) at the bottom. anyone know how to resize it so the bottom rests above the panel? | 12:55 |
| student1 | further note : half the pieces in the bottom row (rooks, knights, bishops, etc) | 12:56 |
| Jester45 | student1, whats your screen resolution? and have you looked at man xboard to see is there is a flag for the board size | 12:57 |
| TheSheep | you can resize the window with alt+shift+arrows, I think | 12:58 |
| Jester45 | thats pretty cool TheSheep | 12:58 |
| Jester45 | but the program might be stopping the window from being resized | 12:59 |
| student1 | screen resolution : 1024 * 768 ... have to look at man xboard ... will do that right now ... tried alt+shift+arrows and no luck ... thanks | 12:59 |
| Jester45 | TheSheep, do you know how find out a servers subnet? | 01:01 |
| TheSheep | Jester45: sure, run ipconfig and look at its ip and mask | 01:02 |
| Jester45 | im trying to setup bandwidthd but it wants my subnet. but i dont know it (vidd's server at work | 01:02 |
| Jester45 | jester@vidd:~$ ipconfig | 01:04 |
| Jester45 | -bash: ipconfig: command not found | 01:04 |
| student1 | looks like the size of the board is controlled by the program ... still reading | 01:04 |

| BFTD | yuck | 01:33 |
| BFTD | ok | 01:33 |
| TheSheep | KingPython: maybe your dns gives you a false ip number? | 01:33 |
| KingPython | but i try several dns | 01:34 |
| TheSheep | KingPython: try http://208.65.153.251 | 01:34 |

| KingPython | ohh i understand when Turkey closed youtube,i had chanced domain | 01:36 |
| KingPython | ok thanx TheSheep | 01:36 |
| TheSheep | I'm sure you can find a lot of other dns servers around the world | 01:36 |
| KingPython | TheSheep if i dont use dns,what will happen? | 01:38 |

| Jester45 | this is the line pgsql_connect_string "user = bwduser password = bwdpass dbname = bandwidthd host = localhost" | 01:38 |
| TheSheep | KingPython: dns (domain name server) is a service that translates names, like youtube.com, into ip numbers, like 208.65.153.251 | 01:39 |
| KingPython | opps , | 01:39 |
| KingPython | i understand | 01:39 |
| TheSheep | KingPython: the internet works with these numbers internally | 01:39 |
| TheSheep | KingPython: if you don't have a dns set up, you just can't use the 'human-friendly' names, you'd have to use the numbers directly | 01:39 |
| KingPython | hmm ,if i use dns for some sites ,can i enter or walk in there faster? | 01:39 |
| Jester45 | a bit | 01:40 |
| KingPython | hmm | 01:40 |
| TheSheep | KingPython: you mean if you use the ip number directly? | 01:40 |
| TheSheep | KingPython: a split second, yes, but it won't work with all sites | 01:40 |
| Jester45 | like google | 01:40 |
| KingPython | hmm | 01:40 |
| Jester45 | they have a lot of ips | 01:41 |
| TheSheep | KingPython: some servers will have multiple web pages on the same ip, and will serve different pages depending on the name you use | 01:41 |
| KingPython | TheSheep : so thanx again | 01:41 |
| Jester45 | like vidd.us :) | 01:41 |
| TheSheep | for example, if you go to sheep.art.pl, you will end up on my blog, but if you go to gallery.sheep.art.pl, which technically points to the same ip, you will find my gallery | 01:41 |

| TheSheep | KingPython: but it point to the same ip | 01:42 |
| KingPython | yes i know | 01:42 |
| TheSheep | KingPython: this mechanism is called 'virtual host' | 01:42 |
| KingPython | yes | 01:42 |
| TheSheep | KingPython: if a server uses virtual hosts, you cannot use the ip alone to access it | 01:43 |
| KingPython | i has made a lot of web site,i know a bit | 01:43 |
| BFTD | hi | 01:43 |

| cheeseboy | can i resize my root partion? | 01:46 |
| TheSheep | cheeseboy: if there is space, yes | 01:46 |
| cheeseboy | TheSheep, how? | 01:46 |
| TheSheep | cheeseboy: what filesystem? | 01:46 |
| cheeseboy | ext3 | 01:46 |
| TheSheep | hmm, I never done it with ext3 | 01:47 |
| TheSheep | but it seems you can do it easily with gparted | 01:47 |
| KingPython | yes gParted is seriously super program | 01:48 |
| TheSheep | but you need to boot from livecd, so that your root partition is not being used at the time | 01:48 |
| cheeseboy | TheSheep, all options are greyed out | 01:48 |
| cheeseboy | i cant boot cd | 01:48 |

| cheeseboy | no cd drive | 01:49 |
| cheeseboy | lost it :( | 01:49 |
| TheSheep | hmm... you could probably boot a second linux from other partition | 01:49 |
| TheSheep | or from an usb drive | 01:49 |
| TheSheep | or usb pendrive | 01:50 |
| cheeseboy | other artitiom is my swap | 01:50 |
| cheeseboy | i have no usb stick | 01:50 |
| TheSheep | you have any external storage? | 01:50 |
| cheeseboy | nope | 01:50 |
| cheeseboy | :( | 01:50 |
| TheSheep | you can't rsize a partition that is being used :/ | 01:50 |
| TheSheep | it's a laptop? | 01:50 |
| cheeseboy | yes | 01:50 |
| TheSheep | so you cannot remove the hard disk and put it into another computer temporarily? | 01:51 |
| cheeseboy | no | 01:51 |
| TheSheep | I'm out of ideas :/ | 01:51 |
| cheeseboy | TheSheep, you know acronis thing for windows? | 01:52 |
| cheeseboy | or partition magic | 01:52 |
| cheeseboy | they do it | 01:52 |
| cheeseboy | when you reboot it does for you | 01:52 |
| TheSheep | cheeseboy: well, command to do it is 'resize2fs', see man resize2fs for details | 01:53 |
| TheSheep | cheeseboy: maybe it can work with the filesystem mounted read-only | 01:54 |
| TheSheep | cheeseboy: ah, it can only enlarge the partition if it's mounted :/ | 01:54 |
| TheSheep | (actually only the filesystem, not the partition, but that's a detail) | 01:55 |
| TheSheep | cheeseboy: if you had any way to run a linux without using that disk | 01:55 |
| cheeseboy | TheSheep, can i resize my swap while in linux? | 01:56 |
| TheSheep | cheeseboy: yes | 01:56 |
| cheeseboy | its only 300mb tho | 01:56 |
| TheSheep | cheeseboy: you can do 'swapoff' to disable the swap | 01:56 |
| cheeseboy | wat linux could i get on there | 01:56 |
| cheeseboy | to resize my root | 01:56 |
| TheSheep | dsl is about 50MB | 01:56 |
| cheeseboy | can i get it o n there w/o install? | 01:57 |
| gerro | yeah live cd | 01:57 |
| cheeseboy | gerro, no cd | 01:57 |
| gerro | hmm usb then | 01:57 |

| phonohead | how do you install icon themes? there is no "icons" folder to add them to | 03:02 |
| Jester45 | phonohead, just a second there is one but i have to find it | 03:06 |
| phonohead | ok Jester45 :) | 03:06 |
| Jester45 | its in ~/.icons | 03:07 |
| Jester45 | at least for that user | 03:07 |
| Jester45 | idk for a system wide install | 03:08 |
| Jester45 | you make a folder for each theme | 03:08 |
| Jester45 | or should | 03:08 |
| Jester45 | like ~/.icons/glass-theme/otherfiles for glass-theme | 03:09 |
| phonohead | let me check | 03:10 |
| Jester45 | i think a system wide install goes into /usr/share/icons/ | 03:10 |
| Jester45 | .icons is a hidden directory all files//folders with . at the beginning are hidden if you didnt know that | 03:10 |
| Jester45 | ctrl+h shows them in thunar | 03:11 |
| phonohead | Jester45, i am not a newbie, just new to adding icon themes to Xfce :):) | 03:11 |
| phonohead | but, there is no .icons folder in my home directory | 03:11 |
| Jester45 | just telling | 03:11 |
| phonohead | it's nice of you | 03:11 |
| Jester45 | make it then | 03:12 |
| Jester45 | you can put it into /usr/share/icons/ like the defualt ones | 03:12 |
| Jester45 | if you put it in your home root will not have it | 03:13 |

| phonohead | i just need it for my own user, so i guess it will do just fine in my home | 03:14 |
| phonohead | why not make it possible to just drag it in the icon theme list | 03:15 |
| Jester45 | maybe the devels didnt want it | 03:17 |
| phonohead | probably, but it's easy to just make a .icon folder and add the files yourself :) | 03:19 |
| Jester45 | and that would make xfce that much more bloated | 03:24 |

| hansin321 | Hello. I think I jacked my XFCE setup a little. I just aquired a laptop (500Mhz/192Meg) and after install of Xubuntu 7.04, I was customizing options. Under 'Window Manager Tweaks' (I think) I tried setting 'use composite'. I should have know better given the age of the laptop. XFCE locked up, and now I can't get into XFCE. I can get to the DM, but after loging in I get the mouse pointer and a solid color screen, nothing else. | 05:13 |
| hansin321 | BTW, I tried fixing by removing the DRI section at the end of /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but this didn't help anything. It was more of a guess than anything. | 05:14 |
| Jester45 | hansin321, do you know if your card hard direct rendering and what driver its using | 05:25 |
| Jester45 | also have you tried using the recovery options when in grub | 05:26 |
| Jester45 | option* its the same kernel but in single user mode | 05:26 |
| hansin321 | Jester45: Not sure. I'll try and figure it out. I think I may have screwed up either the xorg configuration or I setting a configuration that hangs my laptop (composite; I should have known better 'cuz this laptop is too old for that sort of thing). | 05:31 |
| hansin321 | An XFCE configuration that is... | 05:32 |

| Apsenti | hello. could anyone tell me how to add a "create folder" option in xfce's menu? | 07:41 |
| vidd | Apsenti, create folder? | 07:41 |
| vidd | what do you mean? | 07:41 |
| Apsenti | by right-clicking on the xfdesktop, I want to have an option in the menu of creating a new folder (on the desktop or elsewhere). | 07:42 |
| Apsenti | I can edit the menu, but don't know which command to use (looking for some sort of a graphical mkdir) | 07:43 |
| vidd | Apsenti, right-clicking on the desktop DOES give you the option to create a folder there | 07:44 |
| Apsenti | I just get the xfce menu | 07:44 |
| Apsenti | how do I do it? | 07:44 |
| vidd | ah...you changed the default right-click option.... | 07:45 |
| Apsenti | yes, I think so... can't remember :) ... how do I reset that back? | 07:46 |
| vidd | got to the settings>desktopsettings | 07:46 |
| vidd | then the behavior tab | 07:47 |
| vidd | remove the check from "show menu" | 07:47 |
| Apsenti | well, it says about enabling the window list by middle click there | 07:47 |
| Apsenti | there's no option for creating a folder in there | 07:48 |
| vidd | remove the check from "show menu" | 07:48 |
| Apsenti | ok. I did. | 07:49 |
| vidd | close the window and right-click on your desktop | 07:49 |
| Apsenti | nothing happens... | 07:49 |
| vidd | ??? | 07:50 |
| Apsenti | no menu appears | 07:50 |
| Apsenti | no window... etc | 07:50 |
| vidd | you dont get a menu at all? | 07:51 |
| Apsenti | no menu... | 07:51 |
| vidd | ok... | 07:51 |
| vidd | go back to the desktop preferences.... | 07:51 |
| vidd | got to the settings>desktopsettings | 07:51 |
| Apsenti | see, that's why I was thinking of adding a command for creating a folder by editing the menu... | 07:51 |
| vidd | on the "appearences" tab..... | 07:52 |
| Apsenti | ok. I'm there | 07:52 |
| vidd | is "allow xfce to manage your desktop" checked? | 07:52 |
| Apsenti | yep | 07:52 |
| vidd | hrm..... | 07:52 |
| vidd | did you install from an upgrade, or a live cd? | 07:53 |
| Apsenti | are you able of creating a folder this way? | 07:53 |
| Apsenti | a cd | 07:53 |
| Apsenti | I use dapper btw | 07:53 |
| vidd | ah.... | 07:53 |
| vidd | THAT explains everything | 07:54 |
| Apsenti | had some video-card problems with feisty | 07:54 |
| vidd | to the best of my knowledge, you cant right-click to make folders on the desktop in dapper | 07:54 |
| vidd | get edgy | 07:55 |
| vidd | =] | 07:55 |
| Apsenti | only when on a folder | 07:55 |
| Apsenti | +the mouse-pointer is | 07:55 |
| Apsenti | I had the same v-card trouble with edgy as well | 07:55 |
| Apsenti | if I click on say a folder I get the create new folder... but that folder will be _inside_ the one I've clicked on | 07:56 |
| Pablo | and how would you expect it to work? | 07:57 |
| Apsenti | no! | 07:57 |
| Apsenti | well it created it on the desktop! | 07:57 |
| Apsenti | at last! | 07:57 |
| Apsenti | I had the idea that it would create the folder _inside_ the folder the pointer was over... when I click on clean desktop I don't get that menu... anyhow... | 07:58 |

| Apsenti | another thing, it appears that thunar and nautilus are both running. how do I disable nautilus? | 07:59 |
| vidd | so Apsenti ya good then? | 07:59 |
| Apsenti | yes, thanks for the help | 07:59 |
| vidd | nautilus???? that is a gnome app | 07:59 |
| Pablo | o.O | 07:59 |
| Apsenti | hehe I know | 07:59 |
| Apsenti | I have gnome installed too | 08:00 |
| vidd | sudo apt-get remove nautilus | 08:00 |
| vidd | oh...then not that..... | 08:00 |
| Apsenti | but? | 08:00 |
| vidd | menu>system>process manager | 08:00 |
| vidd | find the app and KILL IT!!!!! | 08:01 |
| vidd | =] | 08:01 |
| vidd | there is also the CLI method....but i assume you want the graphical way | 08:01 |
| Apsenti | I can do that with xkill too, but... when I logout and then login, nautilus is still there | 08:02 |
| vidd | yeah | 08:02 |
| Apsenti | there's no other way, right? | 08:02 |
| === vidd does not know if that (annoying as all get-out) save session option is available on the quit menu in dapper | ||
| Apsenti | nop | 08:04 |
| vidd | then...ummm....i dont think there is any other way..... | 08:05 |
| Apsenti | ok. thanks for all. bye. | 08:05 |
| vidd | unless you make a custom script to auto-kill nautilus on load | 08:05 |
