cellofellowKr4t05|Lap: use ntfs-3g.06:12
cellofellowKr4t05|Lap: I think you need to set it up in fstab for that, but that's a ten-minute job.06:12
Kr4t05|Lapcellofellow, I said NFS, not NTFS. :/06:16
cellofellowoh, NFS.06:17
cellofellowYeah, it would be nice to have those (optionally) appear on the desktop.06:17
cellofellow(Sometimes I have too many things showing on my desktop I don't want there.)06:17
Kr4t05|LapUm... I think you misunderstood me.06:17
Kr4t05|LapI'm talking about my desktop computer.06:17
cellofellowoh, or a LinNeighborhood-style tool.06:17
cellofellowum, ok I do missunderstand. What are you talking about?06:18
Kr4t05|LapTwo PCs.06:18
Kr4t05|LapOne desktop, one laptop.06:18
Kr4t05|LapI have nfs-kernel-server installed on the desktop (Running Kubuntu Fiesty) and two shares set up.06:18
Kr4t05|LapWhen I try to mount these shares in my laptop (running Xubuntu Fiesty) it won't work.06:19
Kr4t05|LapNor can I SSH into the desktop from the laptop.06:19
Kr4t05|LapThe connection times out.06:19
cellofellowYou have a firewall set up?06:19
Kr4t05|LapNot to my knowledge.06:19
cellofellow`iptables -L`06:20
Kr4t05|LapI used Firestarter a couple times, but I don't have it on.06:20
Kr4t05|LapOne moment.06:20
Kr4t05|LapHrm, how can I change that?06:21
cellofellowdid it show something?06:22
Kr4t05|LapI originally heard that it was a bug in the Linksys router I had, but I couldn't find a way to fix it.06:22
cellofellowwhat about aptitude search firestarter?06:22
Kr4t05|LapOne second, let me get on IRC with the desktop.06:22

Kr4t05|Lapcellofellow, I have firestarter installed on the desktop, yeah.06:23
cellofellowis it behind another firewall? A router or proxy?06:23
=== Kr4t05 [n=andrew@dsl-206-251-14-4.dsl0.crls.pa.net] has joined #xubuntu
Kr4t05cellofellow: Okay.06:25
cellofellowIf you are already using a firewall, on another computer, then purge (sudo aptitude purge firestarter) the firewall.06:25
cellofellowfirestarter is really only needed if you are sitting directly on the internet.06:25
Kr4t05cellofellow: Nope, only computer running a firewall.06:26
Kr4t05But... Well, I don't think I really need it.06:26
cellofellowrouter is included in "computer" sorry, wasn't clear.06:26
Kr4t05I have a router and a DSL modem sitting between this machine and the net.06:26
cellofellowremoving it won't work, you have to purge.06:26
cellofellowok, blast firestarter then.06:26
cellofellowoh, and just to make sure the iptables stuff gets cleaned, run `sudo iptables -F`.06:27
cellofellowafter you purge.06:28

jessejazzaThanks - but i installed Ubuntu 6.10.10:05
jessejazzaI assume it wasn't xubuntu wasn't installed onto HDD. So i need to download it from XFCE ?10:05

jessejazzaso can i put the CD in again and get it from there?10:09
PumpernickelIf you have the Xubuntu install cd, sure.10:09
jessejazzaNo i have the Ubuntu - i thought XFCE was on there somewhere10:10
PumpernickelNope.10:10
jessejazzaok at present i'm using windoze to chat [loaded Ubu on a spare PC so i could learn about it before changing over completely] . So i need to download XFCE from www.xfce.org or can i use the synaptic?10:13
PumpernickelYou should use Synaptic.  That's what it's there for.10:15
=== LiquidValium-a [n=lv@12-207-51-104.client.mchsi.com] has joined #xubuntu
jessejazzaSo if i download XFCE where do i place it so that synaptic finds it10:20
PumpernickelSynaptic downloads it for you, when you use it to install it.10:22
PumpernickelUbuntu uses a completely different system for installing/managing/uninstalling applications and packages, compared to what you're used to on Windows.10:22
PumpernickelYou should probably research it a bit, just so you understand what you're dealing with.10:23

nonlocalhi what is the command to reconfigure my x settings (namely resolution)?10:27
jessejazzaBut what i can't see from reading the intro and Ubuntu Hacks is how you point the synaptic manager to whatever you want to download. I thought synaptic was a list of all packages and one clicks or whatever on a package and it finds it or downloads it.10:27
Mitetononlocal:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg10:28

cellofellowI say either use LTS or Latest, which rules out Edgy.12:59
nikolamThat is definitely safest bet. But too drastic for me :) I like stable new releases, like 7.0401:00
cellofellowGutsy isn't "Latest", it's Development.01:02
