| jared | so why install xubuntu? | 00:06 |
| soldats | because it comes stock with xfce and xfce is awesome IMO | 00:07 |
| soldats | its all personal preference | 00:07 |

| jared | or GNOME | 00:08 |
| mindframe | can someone help me please? as soon as my system logs in it exits back to gdm | 00:08 |
| soldats | KDE is ugly IMO and way too big xfceis just minimalistic and runs better on my system than gnome does | 00:09 |

| helix_ | hey what is the minimum system requirments to run xubuntu? Or rather what is the minimum any of you have pushed it on? | 09:19 |
| helix_ | kernel | 09:25 |
| helix_ | hey can I ask you some questions? | 09:25 |
| fiyawerx | helix_: dunno about what people have done, but http://www.xubuntu.org/get | 09:31 |
| TheSheep | helix_: P90, 96MB ram, slow as a slug :) | 09:32 |
| fiyawerx | honestly, there might be sleeker systems than *buntu for very low end machines, it's always run a bit heavy for me | 09:34 |

| scizzo- | evening | 17:48 |
| cookiemonster077 | I recently install FUSEsmb to gain access to xp network shares which I now have in command line. can someone tell me why thunar won't open them | 19:16 |
| grahamperrin | cookiemonster077: is your FUSE stuff running as the same user as you, or as a different user? | 19:18 |
| cookiemonster077 | I am not sure. how would i check | 19:24 |
| cookiemonster077 | sorry totally new to this | 19:24 |
| totalwormface | cookiemonster077: you can go to the main menu -> administration | 19:25 |
| totalwormface | oh sorry System -> Administration -> users and groups | 19:25 |
| totalwormface | and add yourself to the 'fuse' group | 19:25 |
| totalwormface | gods | 19:26 |
| * totalwormface kicks himself | 19:26 | |
| cookiemonster077 | it says both myself and root are in that group | 19:26 |
| totalwormface | good :] | 19:27 |
| totalwormface | did you add the word 'fuse' to your /etc/modules file? | 19:28 |
| cookiemonster077 | no i did not | 19:28 |
| cookiemonster077 | however it is already there | 19:29 |
| totalwormface | also good | 19:29 |
| totalwormface | now, make a directory you wish your network will be mounted on | 19:30 |
| totalwormface | for example /media/network | 19:30 |
| totalwormface | or whatever you like | 19:30 |
| cookiemonster077 | does location matter | 19:30 |
| totalwormface | 'sudo mkdir /media/network' for example | 19:30 |
| totalwormface | no, not very much | 19:30 |
| cookiemonster077 | done | 19:30 |
| totalwormface | then do a 'sudo chmod 777 /media/network' | 19:31 |
| cookiemonster077 | permission denied | 19:31 |
| totalwormface | ehh | 19:32 |
| totalwormface | did you use use? | 19:33 |
| totalwormface | argh | 19:33 |
| totalwormface | did you use sudo? | 19:33 |
| cookiemonster077 | 'sudo -i' | 19:33 |
| cookiemonster077 | root@Brian:~# chmod 777 /home/brian/share | 19:34 |
| cookiemonster077 | chmod: cannot access `/home/brian/share': Permission denied | 19:35 |
| totalwormface | oh then try 'chmod -R' :] | 19:35 |
| cookiemonster077 | root@Brian:~# chmod -R /home/brian/share | 19:36 |
| cookiemonster077 | chmod: missing operand after `/home/brian/share' | 19:36 |
| cookiemonster077 | Try `chmod --help' for more information. | 19:36 |
| totalwormface | hehehe sorry | 19:36 |
| cookiemonster077 | what did i do | 19:36 |
| totalwormface | 'sudo chmod -R 777 /home/brian/share' :[ | 19:37 |
| totalwormface | :] | 19:37 |
| totalwormface | that should give no output, if it doesn't it worked :P | 19:37 |
| cookiemonster077 | permission denied??? | 19:38 |
| totalwormface | hell that makes no sense | 19:39 |
| totalwormface | what happens if you go to that folder in thunar | 19:39 |
| totalwormface | and rightclick it | 19:40 |
| totalwormface | then properties | 19:40 |
| totalwormface | who is the owner of that file? | 19:40 |
| totalwormface | eh, directory | 19:40 |
| TheSheep | totalwormface: root has no longer full control on remotely mounted directories | 19:40 |
| cookiemonster077 | root is listed as owner | 19:41 |
| cookiemonster077 | hello sheep i am still fighting with this | 19:41 |
| totalwormface | TheSheep: yes, but fuse doesn't know yet that that folder is going to be used as a dir things get mounted on... | 19:41 |
| totalwormface | cookiemonster077: the folder is empty right? | 19:42 |
| totalwormface | if so, try 'sudo rm -r /home/brian/share' | 19:43 |
| cookiemonster077 | you said fuse doesn't know. would that be the command 'fuse /home/brian/share' | 19:43 |
| TheSheep | no | 19:43 |
| totalwormface | hehehhe | 19:43 |
| totalwormface | sorry i just awoke, these things are hard at the moment *^_^* | 19:43 |
| cookiemonster077 | rm: cannot lstat `/home/brian/share': Permission denied | 19:44 |
| * TheSheep installs smbfs to try it himself | 19:44 | |
| totalwormface | cookiemonster077: good :] | 19:44 |
| TheSheep | cookiemonster077: say, what does 'ls -ald /home/brian' say? | 19:45 |
| totalwormface | TheSheep: fuse is already running, so you're right :] | 19:45 |
| cookiemonster077 | drwxr-xr-x 20 brian brian 4096 2008-01-22 14:12 /home/brian | 19:45 |
| TheSheep | and /home/brian/share ? | 19:46 |
| cookiemonster077 | ls: /home/brian/share: Permission denied | 19:47 |
| TheSheep | cookiemonster077: ls -ald | 19:47 |
| cookiemonster077 | root@Brian:~# ls -ald /home/brian/share | 19:47 |
| cookiemonster077 | ls: /home/brian/share: Permission denied | 19:47 |
| totalwormface | cookiemonster077: i guess you first need to kill fuse | 19:48 |
| totalwormface | so you can get full control of the folder again :] | 19:48 |
| cookiemonster077 | is that a command | 19:48 |
| TheSheep | totalwormface: no need to kill | 19:49 |
| TheSheep | cookiemonster077: do 'sudo umount /home/brian/share' | 19:49 |
| totalwormface | hehe thank you for your better judgement *^_^* | 19:50 |
| cookiemonster077 | done | 19:50 |
| totalwormface | good! | 19:50 |
| TheSheep | cookiemonster077: then remove it as root, make a directory as normal user and run 'fusesmb directory' for it as normal user | 19:50 |
| Breakage | i cant disable screensaver, the screen goes blank after some time. under screensaver preferences i have disabled it on idle and put the bar to 2 hours. anyone know how i can fix this? | 19:50 |
| Breakage | also for some reason i dont have /root/.Trash even after deleting stuff as root | 19:51 |
| TheSheep | Breakage: it goes to disk's global trash if you have writing permissions to it (and root has writing permissions msotly everywhere) | 19:51 |
| Breakage | TheSheep: ah thats cool, thanks :) thought that might be the case. | 19:52 |
| cookiemonster077 | done now what | 19:52 |
| TheSheep | Breakage: also, files deleted form the command line don't go to trash | 19:52 |
| TheSheep | Breakage: they are lost permanently | 19:52 |
| TheSheep | cookiemonster077: it hsould work now | 19:53 |
| TheSheep | cookiemonster077: as user | 19:53 |
| Breakage | TheSheep: oh thanks, think i'll use commands to delete from filesystem :) | 19:53 |
| cookiemonster077 | does the fusesmb.conf need editting | 19:54 |
| TheSheep | cookiemonster077: yes, if you want to use a user name and/or password | 19:54 |
| cookiemonster077 | the dir change does not matter? | 19:55 |
| TheSheep | no, it's not configured in there | 19:56 |
| cookiemonster077 | i need to reboot to check something I had an error when I booted this morning that might be important | 19:58 |
| cookiemonster077 | i am back | 20:02 |
| cookiemonster077 | the error did not show this time | 20:03 |
| cookiemonster077 | but the new dir is still empty | 20:05 |
| TheSheep | cookiemonster077: run 'fusesmb new_dir' | 20:07 |
| TheSheep | cookiemonster077: as user | 20:07 |
| Breakage | i've uninstalled gnome-screensaver that should solve my screensaver problem right :)? | 20:07 |
| TheSheep | Breakage: no | 20:07 |
| TheSheep | Breakage: it's power saving, not a screen saver | 20:07 |
| TheSheep | Breakage: the monitor is being puti nto low energy mode | 20:08 |
| Breakage | TheSheep: damn ok thanks | 20:08 |
| TheSheep | Breakage: but I don't know where to change these settings | 20:08 |
| Breakage | TheSheep: no probs ill google | 20:08 |
| TheSheep | Breakage: you might need to install the gnome power manager | 20:09 |
| Breakage | ok | 20:09 |
| TheSheep | Breakage: and run gnome-power-preferences then | 20:10 |
| Breakage | TheSheep: ok thanks :) | 20:10 |
| cookiemonster077 | it ran fuse with 'sudo' but then it won't let me into the dir | 20:12 |
| cookiemonster077 | permission denied | 20:12 |
| TheSheep | cookiemonster077: do 'sudo umount' and run the fusesmb as normal user, without sudo | 20:12 |
| cookiemonster077 | sudo umount | 20:13 |
| TheSheep | sudo mumount directory | 20:13 |
| TheSheep | umount | 20:13 |
| cookiemonster077 | that has done it. so all these problems are because i did all this as root | 20:15 |
| cookiemonster077 | ?? | 20:15 |
| TheSheep | yes | 20:16 |
| TheSheep | funne, eh? | 20:16 |
| TheSheep | funny | 20:16 |
| cookiemonster077 | thanks for all your help. mind if i come back with the next problem | 20:17 |
| TheSheep | not at all | 20:18 |
| cookiemonster077 | thanks again | 20:18 |
