[11:31] <padmaji> hi, can anyone tell me if thunar has an extension so i can ftp and ssh into my server
[11:58] <ElAngelo> lunartic: you asked here already?
[11:59] <ElAngelo> hi
[12:00] <ElAngelo> added a wireless nic in a machine and now it doesn't show up in nm-system-editor
[13:23] <HelloHelloHello> Hello I have just started using Linux and the most confusing thing is the filesytem can anyone hep explainging this. What the files are like bin and such.
[13:24] <Alecmg> imagine all your exe files are put together in one directory
[13:24] <Alecmg> thats bin
[13:27] <HelloHelloHello> ok so thats like program files
[13:27] <Alecmg> not exactly
[13:27] <Alecmg> because all dll files are in lib
[13:31] <HelloHelloHello> so bin and lib are like program files
[13:31] <HelloHelloHello> what would be "Documents and Settings" and "Windows
[13:31] <HelloHelloHello> "
[13:34] <lunartic> Documents and Settings would be /home
[13:35] <HelloHelloHello> What about the other folders? what would they be?
[13:36] <lunartic> windows does not really has an equivalent
[13:36] <Alecmg> its spread out
[13:37] <lunartic> quiet confusing in the beginning if you come from windows
[13:37] <Alecmg> most confusing is lack of C: drive :)
[13:38] <lunartic> although: even in xp you can mount a drive at a certain directory
[13:39] <lunartic> if you've done that then the principle of thinking starting zith a root / is easier
[13:40] <HelloHelloHello> verry that and other linux distro don't auto mount so you have to know sda or whatever the device is that I still don't get :)
[13:49] <lunartic> They can also automount. You only have to write a correct configuration file for it
[13:58] <Chickengeorge> hello, my windows-close-button disappeared on al windows, can anybody help me please?
[14:14] <wols_> restart your window manager
[15:11] <jokoon> hello, I put all the text files from .local/notes/Notes in the new one (in reinstalled ubuntu) but they won't open, whats wrong ?
[15:27] <dimitree> Hello
[15:28] <dimitree> I just installed Xubuntu and enabled hardware drivers for my Nvidia card, after the restart my resolution changed to as far as i can tell to 600x400, in the display resolution options i have only the Default option and 320x200 or something ? can someone help ?
[15:59] <wols_> check your Xorg.0.log
[16:05] <jmichelsen> i cant seem to get X forwarding working, it doesnt seem to find the display to forward
[18:57] <jesus_9001> Anyone on that can help me?
[19:00] <cody-somerville_> !ask
[19:04] <jesus_9001> Ok I installed Xubuntu and everything went peachy. I updated it and restarted and it was all fine still. Then I installed the proprietary drivers for my ATi x1650 AGP card and it will not boot. The Loading Screen comes up but after that it doesn't go to the login screen. Anyone experience this before?
[19:07] <cody-somerville> Where does it go?
[19:08] <jesus_9001> Just to a blank screen
[19:08] <cody-somerville> Press ctrl+alt+F1
[19:08] <cody-somerville> login
[19:08] <cody-somerville> and run: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[19:08] <cody-somerville> and then: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[19:09] <jesus_9001> does ctrl alt f1 take me to bash
[19:09] <n3hima> yes
[19:09] <jesus_9001> ok i will try that
[19:09] <jesus_9001> thx
[19:12] <jesus_9001> still goes to blank screen
[19:12] <cody-somerville> Can you send me the output of /etc/Xorg.0.log
[19:12] <cody-somerville> erm
[19:12] <cody-somerville> /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[19:13] <cody-somerville> Please don't paste it in this channel :-]
[19:21] <jesus_9001> I cant boot
[19:21] <jesus_9001> Should I put in the disk and go to recovery mode or whatever
[19:21] <cody-somerville> If that works best for you.
[19:24] <jesus_9001> ok i will be back later today i have to go to work thanks for the help
[20:08] <dpick> hey
[20:09] <zoredache> hello
[20:15] <jesus_9001> How do I uninstall the ATi driver from the recovery mode
[20:19] <zoredache> how did you install it?
[20:48] <dpick> anybody here?
[20:48] <zoredache> !anyone | dpick
[20:49] <dpick> is there any way to lock a machine without using the screensaver, similar to how windows does it?
[20:51] <zoredache> eh?  When you lock the screen in windows it eventually starts the screen saver...
[20:51] <dpick> not if you have the screensaver disabled
[20:52] <zoredache> if it is disabled, doesn't it simply use the blank screen saver?
[20:53] <dpick> it just shows the login box
[20:54] <dpick> i'm just looking for a way to lock the machine without a screensaver, generally i don't bother with one
[20:54] <zoredache> instead of locking, choose 'switch user'  It will send you back to the login box?
[20:55] <zoredache> instead of locking, choose 'switch user'  It will send you back to the login box?
[20:56] <dpick> ok, is there a command that i could map to a shortcut key?
[20:56] <zoredache> probably...  I don't know it off the top of my head
[20:57] <pcybill> For locking the screen its xflock4
[20:58] <dpick> that just starts xscreensaver doesn't it?
[20:58] <pcybill> But that will still get you the screen saver iirc
[20:58] <pcybill> aye
[20:58] <pcybill> it locks the screen though, you will need the pw to get out of it
[20:58] <dpick> eh whatever if i have to use the screensaver whatever
[21:00] <zoredache> why are you worried about the screen saver?
[21:01] <pcybill> You can set the screen saver as a blank screen if you dont want no eye candy, then when you xflock4 it will just go to a blank screen
[21:01] <dpick> i have some processor intensive stuff running, but i have to leave my machine
[21:01] <dpick> pcybill: sounds like the best option, thanks
[21:02] <pcybill> np
[21:12] <jokoon> Hello
[21:12] <xeper777> hi ;)
[21:12] <jokoon> I put the text files for the notes plugin
[21:12] <jokoon> for xfce
[21:12] <jokoon> I have several ones
[21:13] <jokoon> but they don't appear in tabs
[21:13] <jokoon> whats wrong ?
[21:13] <xeper777> sorry i never used xfce. :) i'm only checking something here. I wanted to be nice.
[21:13] <xeper777> *I have never
[21:22] <favro> jokoon: isn't the notes plugin a panel app? - you have to add it to a panel don't you?
[21:22] <jokoon> its added
[21:22] <jokoon> but I want to restore old notes
[21:23] <jokoon> favro
[21:26] <favro> jokoon: I've never used it but there should be a config file in ~/.config/xfce4 you might be able to find something in there - sorry  I can't help more
[21:26] <jokoon> Yes I found where to put the text files
[21:27] <favro> jokoon: you might need to log out and in to get the old notes loaded
[22:22] <xxTheSaint> Hello, im trying to get my mate to join my in openssh but it wont let him

[22:55] <xxTheSain1> Hello, i'm trying to find some help on "Hacking" secured internet connections. I only want this because my brother has a girlfriend and her dosent have a connection, but her neighbrough does. But its unfortunatly secured
[22:56] <xxTheSain1> Is there any programs to get into the secured network?
[22:56] <zoredache> what you are asking for is unethical.   I doubt anyone will help
[22:58] <xxTheSain1> well, im hopeing someone can
[22:58] <zoredache> how would you feel if I stole your bandwidth?
[22:59] <zoredache> anyway, You almost certainly will not get an answer here.  It is a)off-topic b)unethical c)against the spirit of the 'code of conduct'
[23:04] <wols_> xxTheSain1: if you don
[23:04] <wols_> don't stop, you will simply be banned
[23:08] <xxTheSain1> hmmm, So how else am i going to get help with this
[23:08] <xxTheSain1>  kind of topic?
[23:09] <wols_> not at all. if you don't stop immediately I call ops
[23:09] <zoredache> WHy not, go over to the neighbor and as politly instead of trying to steal
[23:46] <dpick> how do you change the applications menu, menu editor doesn't show most of whats there
[23:57] <TheSheep> dpick: it's automatically generated from what is installed
[23:57] <TheSheep> dpick: simply install or uninstall software that you want or not
[23:57] <dpick> i installed wine, whiched created an other menu, but when i unistalled wine it didn't remove it
[23:58] <dpick> is there a way to manually remove the entry?
[23:58] <TheSheep> dpick: ah, that's in ~/.local/applications/wine
[23:58] <wols_> purge it
[23:58] <TheSheep> dpick: every file in there is one entry
[23:59] <dpick> purging it didn't work, and ~/.local/applications/wine doesn't exist
[23:59] <TheSheep> sorry, that's ~/.local/share/applications/wine
