gerroI installed gproftpd and having a bit of trouble setting up server. I think its my firewall settings it mentions something about passive port range, anyone with experience with this?15:42
gerroResa: hi15:52
ResaHelou15:52
ResaJust installed xubuntu on a comp I got for Christmas, and looks like it's working as it should :)15:53
gerroResa: sounds awesome, this your first time using xubuntu?15:54
ResaNope, had it for about a year on my previous comp :)15:54
gerroah nice15:54
Resaand regular gnome for quite a while before that :)15:55
gerroI used either fluxbox or kde before I started with xubuntu15:55
gerrobrb though need to reboot debugging some server stuffs15:56
scizzo-merry xmas16:18
jeanneis it possible to play quicktime mov with xfmedia? Or what other program should I use?17:13
jeannexfmedia just shows me a white/empty movie playing. No error in terminal either.17:14
jeannethere also doesn't seem to be a plain mplayer in the repos :( only kmplayer17:16
scizzo-jeanne: are you really using all the repos?17:18
jeannescizzo-: no, just the default one17:19
scizzo-jeanne: try the others also then17:24
scizzo-medibuntu especially17:24
jeannescizzo-: I would imagine ubutnu would inherit this from debian. I am not interested in using other repos.17:32
scizzo-jeanne: well umm there is restricted stuff in ubuntu also17:40
scizzo-and those are the once I mean17:41
cockroachhi. i have a small question: if i'm logged in as userA and userB at the same time and connect a usb mass storage device, only userA has permission to access that device. is there a way to set access rights to their common group?17:41
cockroachand, on a completely unrelated note, (how) can i change the default program to use for viewing images system-wide? somehow the gimp is not really the right choice for that...17:42
scizzo-cockroach: install fspot17:43
cockroachscizzo-: there's no such package. do i need a special repository for that?17:43
scizzo-cockroach: its called f-spot17:45
scizzo-sorry17:45
cockroachah :)17:45
scizzo-cockroach: its a good program for viewing images.....I belive that it will be the first application for showing images also17:46
scizzo-however if that is not the case then I belive there is a mime-type editor somewhere in the menus that lets you change it17:46
cockroachah okay, i'll check for that.17:47
scizzo-long time since I changed the mime-type of files so17:48
cockroachyes, me too, each time i have to do it i get lost somewhere in the configfiles, thus i figured i'd just ask this time :)17:49
cockroachplus, being e debian guy, i didn't know whether xubuntu had some special settings dialog for this17:49
scizzo-hmmm....well its xfce stuff so maybe check the menus for mime-types.....I fairly new to xfce myself so...17:50
TheSheepcockroach: right-click on an image, select 'properties' and select the program to use18:01
scizzo-hey its TheSheep18:04
cockroachTheSheep: sure, but that's not system-wide...18:08
TheSheepcockroach: ah, system wide are encoded in the .desktop files of the icons, but I don't know the rules that govern their priority18:10
TheSheepcockroach: the .desktop files in /usr/share/applications havea 'mime' entry, telling which file types the particular program can open18:10
TheSheepcockroach: I think the standard is described somewhere on http://freedesktop.org18:12
cockroachTheSheep: okay, i saw the entries but i couldn't figure out the order. i'll see whether i can find something on freedesktop.org, thouth. thanks!18:21
cockroach"though", that is :)18:27
TheSheep:)18:28
TheSheepcockroach: do tell if you figure it out18:28
cockroachTheSheep: i will, but it might take some time. christmas dinner is about to be served :)18:28
TheSheepcockroach: bon apetit :)18:29
cockroachthanks :)18:29
jeannescizzo-: why would mplayer be in restricted?18:34
scizzo-jeanne: its in multiverse18:35
scizzo-according to what I can see18:35
scizzo-Section: multiverse/graphics18:36
scizzo-since mplayer is using a lot of libs or something simular to which it can't be in the _standard_ repos......I don't remember the exact cause I just know that it has to do with something simular to that18:37
jeannescizzo-: hmm. Is there a way to make totem play quicktime?18:40
stone[no]I've recently upradet 7.10, now network manager does not ask for the wireless passprashe, which is good. However, the pcmcia wlan card is not correctly initialized on boot. I have to unplug/replug it to get it working. Any thoughts?18:43
scizzo-jeanne: not sure if totem can do that18:44
TheSheepthre is helix player for rm...18:45
TheSheepbut quicktime is apple's, right?18:45
jeannescizzo-: never mind, I'm installing mplayer. Thanks for your help :)18:46
scizzo-TheSheep: yeah18:46
scizzo-jeanne: no worries18:46
TheSheepjeanne: vlc can play quicktime too...18:46
TheSheepjeanne: it's more GUI-ish18:46
