ubottu | Themes for Xfce4 are simply GTK2+ themes which means Gnome themes are also compatible with your xfce4 desktop. To install themes, unpack it in ~/.themes/ To install icons, unpack them to ~/.icons/ - Visit http://www.xfce-look.org/ for all kinds of eyecandy for your Xfce4 desktop! - See also !themes for other GNOME theme sites | 01:41 |

Odd-rationale | Sl4y3r1: so you have a folder called ~/.themes/ [58] | 01:59 |
Odd-rationale | whoops... | 02:00 |
Odd-rationale | Sl4y3r1: so you have a folder called ~/.themes/LiNsta-Black-Plastic | 02:00 |
Odd-rationale | ? | 02:00 |
Sl4y3r1 | yeah | 02:00 |
Odd-rationale | it is a xfmw4 theme. not a gtk theme... | 02:00 |
Odd-rationale | Sl4y3r1: so chek the wm settings... not ui settings... | 02:01 |
Sl4y3r1 | not there either | 02:01 |
Odd-rationale | hmm... | 02:02 |
Odd-rationale | Sl4y3r1: try moving the LiNsta-Black-Plastic folder and all it's contents to /usr/share/xfwm4/themes | 02:06 |
Odd-rationale | you need to do it as root... | 02:06 |
Sl4y3r1 | sec | 02:06 |
Odd-rationale | like: sudo cp -fdr ~/.themes/LiNsta-Black-Plastic /usr/share/xfwm4/themes/ | 02:06 |
Sl4y3r1 | nope | 02:10 |
Sl4y3r1 | nothing | 02:10 |
Odd-rationale | Sl4y3r1: well, it doesn't look like you are the only one with issues... http://forum.xfce.org/index.php?topic=874.0 | 02:11 |
Sl4y3r1 | yeah | 02:11 |
Sl4y3r1 | ;s | 02:12 |
Sl4y3r1 | just found that about 30 secs ago | 02:12 |
Sl4y3r1 | XD | 02:12 |
Odd-rationale | Sl4y3r1: tried #xfce ? | 02:12 |
Sl4y3r1 | didnt know there was one | 02:12 |
LuYu | i need help with mouse cursor themes | 02:21 |
LuYu | on a previous install, i was able to change them easily | 02:22 |
LuYu | now, no matter what i do, i cant seem to find the website or technique i used to do it | 02:22 |
Sl4y3r1 | didnt know you could install mouse themes XD im just trying to figure out why none of the desktop themes i use work | 02:22 |
Sl4y3r1 | XD | 02:22 |
Odd-rationale | LuYu: try looking in xfce-look.org | 02:23 |
LuYu | i have | 02:23 |
LuYu | they have tons of themes | 02:23 |
LuYu | but no explanation on how to get them to work | 02:23 |
Odd-rationale | LuYu: extract it to ~/.themes | 02:23 |
LuYu | ive downloaded a couple of themes | 02:23 |
Odd-rationale | LuYu: like which one? | 02:24 |
LuYu | i tried that, they didnt show up | 02:24 |
LuYu | blueillusion2 is the one ive been trying to make work | 02:24 |
LuYu | dont tell me . . . ive been working with a broken theme | 02:24 |
Odd-rationale | LuYu: i'm sorry, my mistake. extract to ~/.icons | 02:24 |
LuYu | right | 02:24 |
LuYu | did that, too | 02:24 |
LuYu | didnt work either | 02:24 |
Odd-rationale | umm. post the link to the cursos theme... and i'll take a look when i come back... | 02:25 |
Sl4y3r1 | LuYu whats the link to blue illusion two | 02:25 |
Odd-rationale | i need to fix this sink... | 02:25 |
LuYu | hold on | 02:25 |
LuYu | ill find it | 02:25 |
Sl4y3r1 | i want a working theme! | 02:25 |
Sl4y3r1 | XD | 02:25 |
LuYu | i cant get the theme to work, so if it works for you then thats one of us | 02:26 |
LuYu | http://www.xfce-look.org/content/show.php/BlueIllusion+2?content=88323 | 02:27 |
LuYu | today is your lucky day | 02:27 |
LuYu | i didnt configure galeon to delete all history yet | 02:27 |
LuYu | so, i still had the link | 02:28 |
LuYu | B-) | 02:28 |
LuYu | i think xfce-look.org really needs a tutorial section | 02:29 |
LuYu | many people may be unfamiliar with the quirks in its theme behavior | 02:30 |
LuYu | i still dont understand why mouse themes go in .icons | 02:30 |
Sl4y3r1 | i finally got one theme to work | 02:30 |
LuYu | they arent really icons | 02:30 |
LuYu | :) | 02:31 |
LuYu | thats more than i have | 02:31 |
Sl4y3r1 | but now all my icons i had place in the task bar remain diff colors | 02:31 |
Sl4y3r1 | x.x | 02:31 |
LuYu | well, thats not true | 02:31 |
LuYu | the display themes all work | 02:31 |
LuYu | its the mouse cursors that dont | 02:31 |
Sl4y3r1 | ive only had luck with 1 i downloaded | 02:31 |
Sl4y3r1 | and thats the mac os x one | 02:31 |
Sl4y3r1 | but my system info on my taskbar still stays the same color it was before applying the theme lol | 02:32 |
Sl4y3r1 | so i get half of a real nice blue taskbar then boom shit off-white colored buttons | 02:32 |
Sl4y3r1 | lol | 02:32 |
LuYu | hmmm | 02:35 |
LuYu | i dont get it | 02:36 |
LuYu | this just worked the first time | 02:36 |
LuYu | f#$@!ing suspend destroyed my good install, and now i cant figure out what i did | 02:37 |
LuYu | anyway, im out of time, so ill have to leave the addition of expletives off for another day | 02:38 |
LuYu | thanks for the help | 02:38 |

knome | !.desktop | 14:01 |
ubottu | A desktop environment is what "puts the pieces of a !GUI together". The available desktop environments in Ubuntu are !GNOME (ubuntu-desktop), !KDE (kubuntu-desktop), !Xfce (xubuntu-desktop), IceWM, !Fluxbox, WindowMaker (wmaker), FVWM and others - See also !Flavors | 14:01 |
knome | not that | 14:02 |
knome | JinKazama, i can't think of any other way than creating a .desktop file | 14:03 |
JinKazama | I found in forums something about this but it was very complicated explanation. I can get it :) . | 14:05 |
JinKazama | I read for this problem here : http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/how-to-edit-xfce-menu-612491/ | 14:05 |
knome | JinKazama, so what do you want to add? an application icon? | 14:06 |
knome | JinKazama, if so, is the application available in the ubuntu repository? | 14:07 |
JinKazama | its form repositiry , byt ntere is no icon in menu. the application is Gisomount | 14:15 |
JinKazama | I installed it from the repository | 14:16 |
knome | i see | 14:17 |
knome | other would possibly not be the right place for it, though | 14:17 |
knome | let me make a .desktop file for it, i'll ping you back in a minute | 14:18 |
JinKazama | ok :) | 14:18 |
knome | or actually check first if it's just hidden | 14:18 |
JinKazama | how to find it ? | 14:18 |
knome | i'll check it | 14:19 |
knome | i just installed it | 14:19 |
knome | ok, the .desktop i ready | 14:29 |
knome | now just upload it | 14:29 |
knome | JinKazama, http://emonk.fi/open/gisomount.desktop | 14:30 |
knome | JinKazama, copy to /usr/share/applications | 14:30 |
JinKazama | ok | 14:30 |
knome | the icon/menu item will be at "system" | 14:31 |
JinKazama | just exelent !!!! thank you knome :) | 14:35 |
JinKazama | is there some more simple way for this ? :) | 14:36 |
knome | not really, if you want to add it in the "normal" menu | 14:38 |
knome | but if you look at the file i sent you, it's really quite easy... | 14:38 |
JinKazama | yes. I read it. I think that I will make by my self in future if needit :) | 14:40 |
JinKazama | thanks knome :) | 14:40 |

lxxlxxl | I need help with my gfx card | 16:21 |
lxxlxxl | please | 16:23 |
TheSheep | !ask | lxxlxxl | 16:23 |
ubottu | lxxlxxl: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 16:23 |
lxxlxxl | ok :) | 16:24 |
lxxlxxl | i upgraded my old pc from 7.04 to 8.04 xubunut | 16:24 |
lxxlxxl | everything is ok | 16:25 |
lxxlxxl | expecpt the video playback | 16:25 |
Odd-rationale | lxxlxxl: how did you upgrade from 7.04 to 8.04? | 16:25 |
lxxlxxl | firsh install | 16:25 |
Odd-rationale | fresh install? ok... good.. | 16:25 |
lxxlxxl | the vido play pack was great in 7.04 | 16:26 |

lxxlxxl | it give me pixles | 16:26 |
lxxlxxl | and flickers | 16:26 |
lxxlxxl | I think i have problem with my x.org file | 16:27 |
Odd-rationale | sounds like... | 16:27 |
lxxlxxl | I didnt customize it when I used 7.04 | 16:27 |
Odd-rationale | the new xorg relies more on autodetection... | 16:27 |
lxxlxxl | but now i think I have to | 16:27 |
Odd-rationale | lxxlxxl: if you still have a copy of your old xorg.conf, you might want to try using it in 8.04 | 16:28 |
lxxlxxl | :( I dont | 16:28 |
lxxlxxl | what if i used the 7.04 liveCD x.org file ? | 16:29 |
Odd-rationale | lxxlxxl: that if it works, then you might want to try to copy it... | 16:30 |
lxxlxxl | the Q is: I rembber that 7.04 x.org was ok with me; is it possible that during the instlation the x.org chnged from the intial one? | 16:32 |
lxxlxxl | if it is the same. I can use the LiveCD one. | 16:33 |
Odd-rationale | lxxlxxl: it is possible that th xorg file change after the install, but not always.... | 16:34 |
lxxlxxl | if i gvre | 16:35 |
lxxlxxl | my card {01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc Rage 128 PF/PRO AGP 4x TMDS [1002:5046]} | 16:35 |

ubottu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 16:37 |
lxxlxxl | http://paste.ubuntu.com/55684/ you can notice that I tried to edit it | 16:38 |
Odd-rationale | ah, you are using the vesa drivers? | 16:39 |
lxxlxxl | i tried r128 & ati | 16:39 |
Odd-rationale | try running: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 16:39 |
Odd-rationale | vesa is kinda slow... but rather failsafe... | 16:40 |
lxxlxxl | xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration | 16:40 |
lxxlxxl | file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20081009184029 | 16:40 |
Odd-rationale | lxxlxxl: ok that's fine... | 16:40 |
Odd-rationale | lxxlxxl: now pastebin your new xorg.conf file... | 16:41 |
lxxlxxl | http://paste.ubuntu.com/55685/ | 16:41 |
Odd-rationale | lxxlxxl: ok. now try restart x (log out) and see if it is any better... | 16:42 |
lxxlxxl | this is the defulat one | 16:42 |
lxxlxxl | it didnt work wwith me. so, i tried to chnage it | 16:43 |
Belovedmonster | can I use emerald themes without using compiz? seems the only time they get mentioned is when people are using compiz | 16:43 |
lxxlxxl | the resulaiton is ok after the change | 16:43 |
Odd-rationale | ok. what are you using to play the video? | 16:43 |
lxxlxxl | vlc | 16:43 |
Odd-rationale | Belovedmonster: afaik, emerald is used only with compiz. | 16:44 |
knome | Belovedmonster, confirm | 16:44 |
Odd-rationale | lxxlxxl: does this happen only with one certain video? have youtried other videos of other fomarts? | 16:45 |
Odd-rationale | formats? | 16:45 |
knome | wow, serious typoing ;) | 16:45 |
Belovedmonster | :-( bummer, i wanted to add the siki colors theme to my xubuntu as I love it on my gnome computer, but it needs emerald according to xfce look | 16:46 |
lxxlxxl | divx xvid | 16:46 |

Odd-rationale | usually, yes... | 17:00 |
lxxlxxl | can I find the 7.04 default xorg online ? | 17:00 |
Odd-rationale | lxxlxxl: i doubt it... | 17:01 |
lxxlxxl | i dont think the problem is related to the codec or the palyer. | 17:02 |
lxxlxxl | how can I know if my gfx card is conferged | 17:02 |
lxxlxxl | is there any commands for cheking ? | 17:02 |

Pisagor | hi | 18:10 |
Zero____--_ | hey, is it possible to install gnome without installing the ubuntu-desktop metabackage | 18:11 |
Odd-rationale | Zero____--_: yes. just insall the gnome-desktop meta-package instead... :P | 18:12 |
Zero____--_ | what packages does ubuntu-desktop have that gnome-desktop doesnt have, Odd-rationale ? | 18:13 |
Odd-rationale | Zero____--_: sorry my bad. it is called the metapackage is called gnome... | 18:14 |
Odd-rationale | compare: | 18:14 |
Odd-rationale | http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/ubuntu-desktop | 18:14 |
Odd-rationale | http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/gnome | 18:14 |
Zero____--_ | thank you | 18:15 |
Odd-rationale | Zero____--_: or this one: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/gnome-desktop-environment | 18:16 |
Odd-rationale | Zero____--_: but if you are going to install gnome without ubuntu, you might as well use debain, sidux, archlinux, slackware, or something instead... :P | 18:18 |
Zero____--_ | yeah, i was just looking at the package difference, and i need ubuntu, i just dont need EVERYTHING in it, i just wanted to install gnome (using xfce currently) without all that bloated crap (such as openoffic) without manually getting rid of stuff | 18:20 |
Zero____--_ | can you have awn in xubuntu? | 18:58 |
cody-somerville | sure | 19:01 |
Pisagor | i wanna install xubuntu in my old HDD which has 4.3 GB space | 19:03 |
Pisagor | and will i have an access to files in my other NTFS drive ? | 19:03 |
cody-somerville | sure | 19:04 |
Pisagor | and do i need to do something special for that ? | 19:04 |
Pisagor | or will i have this option defaultly ? | 19:04 |
cody-somerville | it'll work by default | 19:04 |
Pisagor | tremendous | 19:04 |
Pisagor | then its time to migrate ... | 19:05 |
Pisagor | c u | 19:05 |
Zero____--_ | I want the dock from Dreamlinux in Xubuntu, is this possible? | 19:12 |
cody-somerville | Its called AWN, yes. | 19:13 |
wormsxulla_ | hello. does anyone remember off-hand the location of the xubuntu "splashscreen" file (the first screen to show at boot)? | 19:26 |
wormsxulla_ | or can help me to find it | 19:26 |
cody-somerville | wormsxulla_, dpkg -L xubuntu-artwork-usplash | 19:27 |
wormsxulla_ | cody-somerville: thank you | 19:27 |
DCPom | hey, will desktop drapes work with xubuntu? | 20:09 |
not_myself | It's hard to say. | 20:11 |
not_myself | I'm not familiar with the project. | 20:11 |
DCPom | it says it's for gnome, so probably not? | 20:11 |
not_myself | sudo aptitude install drapes | 20:12 |
not_myself | Actually quite a few gnome programs work great in xubuntu. | 20:12 |
not_myself | I've never noticed a difference to be honest. | 20:12 |
not_myself | I think I'll look up drapes and see what it does. | 20:13 |
not_myself | I guess it's not compatible. | 20:17 |
DCPom | yeah | 20:17 |
DCPom | it doesn't seem to be working | 20:17 |
DCPom | :'( | 20:17 |
not_myself | Write your own ... | 20:17 |
DCPom | yeah, I thought about that | 20:18 |
DCPom | I don't really have the bash skills to do that | 20:18 |
not_myself | I guess I'm too much of a do it yourself-er. | 20:18 |
not_myself | Anyone know where/how to set your screen brightness. My laptop keeps dimming after x minutes of no activity, and I can't seem to locate it. | 20:19 |
not_myself | There's a box under screensaver power management that is unchecked, alas ... this doesn't stop it from dimming. | 20:21 |
not_myself | Oh well maybe I fixed it ... maybe I didn't. | 20:21 |
goddamnallthenic | man, getting network shares under xfce is a chore | 20:24 |
knome | why not woman? | 20:24 |
goddamnallthenic | ... | 20:25 |
knome | gotcha. | 20:25 |
not_myself | what are you doing nfs? | 20:28 |
goddamnallthenic | so is there an easy way to veiw my windows shares through thundar? | 20:29 |
Myrtti | !fusesmb | 20:30 |
ubottu | fusesmb is a tool that allows easy access to shared folders (smb) on a network. Links with more info: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FuseSmb | 20:30 |
goddamnallthenic | i cant see my network | 20:30 |
goddamnallthenic | fusesmb is installed | 20:31 |
not_myself | I usually do all my ftp/sftp stuff through knoqueror I don't know if it works with smb:// though. | 20:32 |
Myrtti | no it doesn't | 20:32 |
goddamnallthenic | ok, so what is the best file manager to use in xfce if i want to veiw my windows shares? | 20:33 |
not_myself | I just did a quick search on google, it appears that konqueror will do samba. | 20:34 |
not_myself | goddamnallthenic: Is your windows machine on the same subnet as your current machine? | 20:35 |
not_myself | Sometimes having 192.168.0.1 and then 192.168.1.1 for ips is enough to make windows crap out. | 20:36 |
goddamnallthenic | yes, its all on the same network, i just want to view my roomates shared vids | 20:36 |
not_myself | ok | 20:36 |
not_myself | Do you have his ip? | 20:36 |
goddamnallthenic | yeah | 20:37 |
not_myself | can you reach it with smbclient? | 20:38 |
goddamnallthenic | smbclient? | 20:38 |
not_myself | smbclient is a command line program with the samba package. | 20:38 |
not_myself | To be honest I just don't know enough about this. | 20:38 |
not_myself | It's been sooo lonng since I tried connecting to a windows share. | 20:39 |
not_myself | I usually just sftp in and copy stuff here. | 20:39 |
not_myself | But that's not going to do it. | 20:39 |
not_myself | http://grumpymole.blogspot.com/2006/10/xubuntu-and-browsing-samba-network.html | 20:41 |
not_myself | smbclient -L -I=192.168.0.1 | 20:43 |
not_myself | Seems to be all you need to do. | 20:43 |
not_myself | Then again I could be wrong. | 20:43 |
not_myself | From there you'll need to figure out how to mount them, after that you'll probably need to add something to fstab to mount them automatically. | 20:44 |
not_myself | or ... you could just sudo apt-get install konqueror; run konqueror then type smb:/ in the address bar. | 20:44 |
not_myself | maybe it's smb:// | 20:47 |
goddamnallthenic | i dont have konqueror, i have xubuntu | 20:48 |
goddamnallthenic | not kubuntu | 20:48 |
Myrtti | goddamnallthenic: did you read that fusesmb guide? | 20:49 |
goddamnallthenic | yeah, it didnt work :( | 20:50 |
xav22 | des francais ? | 20:53 |
xav22 | hello world | 20:53 |
xav22 | I need help on xubuntu (xfce) | 20:53 |
xav22 | any on to help me ? | 20:53 |
cody-somerville | !ask | 20:54 |
ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 20:54 |
xav22 | ubottu> ok | 20:58 |
ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 20:58 |
xav22 | cody-somerville> ok, thanks | 20:58 |
xav22 | sorry for my bad english | 20:58 |
xav22 | i try to join shared folders on a W2000 server, in a domain, from xfce with thunar | 20:59 |
xav22 | I tried with fusesmb | 20:59 |
xav22 | it works well , i can see the W2000 domain, the server and can see the shared folders | 21:00 |
DFlame | but? | 21:00 |
xav22 | But when i try to access one of those shared folders | 21:00 |
xav22 | i get an error message | 21:00 |
DFlame | do you have the text of the error message? | 21:01 |
xav22 | like "folder unreachable : access refused, no permissions" ???? | 21:01 |
xav22 | like "folder unreachable : access refused, no permissions" ???? | 21:01 |
DFlame | you *could* try a program called pyNeighborhood. it scans and mounts network shares. I believe it is in Synaptic Package Manager | 21:03 |
DFlame | that is what I use to mount my shares anyway... | 21:03 |
xav22 | ok, thanks, I ll try | 21:04 |
DFlame | no promises, though remember to run it as root (as it involves mounting) | 21:04 |
xav22 | DFlame> ok | 21:07 |
xav22 | I really dont understand why the use of fusesmb doesnt works | 21:07 |
DFlame | neither do I. I go with what works and dont question why | 21:08 |
shirish | hi all, how do I know status of sticky keys in xubuntu? | 21:11 |

DCPom | what's the CL to change the desktop image? | 21:13 |
DaveDixonII | can someone help me? | 21:43 |
DaveDixonII | its just a quick question | 21:43 |
charlie-tca | !anyone | 21:44 |
ubottu | A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 21:44 |
charlie-tca | It depends on the question | 21:44 |
charlie-tca | ask please | 21:44 |
DaveDixonII | if you compile an app, to remove it, do you just delete the folder or remove threw terminal? | 21:45 |
charlie-tca | I don't know about compiling apps. | 21:45 |
vinnl | charlie-tca, I need to remember that one :) | 21:46 |
vinnl | DaveDixonII, you can do "make uninstall" I believe, but I recommend you to compile using checkinstall so you can remove it through Synaptic | 21:46 |
DaveDixonII | k. ty | 21:48 |
oklinux | hello | 21:54 |
oklinux | any one use lxde in xubuntu ? | 21:55 |
vinnl | I have, for a moment | 21:55 |
vinnl | To give it a try | 21:55 |
vinnl | !anyone | 21:55 |
ubottu | A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 21:55 |
vinnl | charlie-tca, ;-) | 21:55 |
charlie-tca | :) | 21:56 |
charlie-tca | It took me a long time to learn and remember it, vinnl | 21:56 |
vinnl | charlie-tca, I guess I'll recall it if I see the use of that word again, and if not, I might if you use it ;-) | 21:57 |
* charlie-tca nods | 21:57 | |
knome | i must say that pcmanfm is *bad* | 21:57 |
* vinnl didn't like it either | 21:58 | |
DCPom | hey, how do you make a shortcut or alias for a folder? | 22:32 |
vinnl | DCPom, right click, then select "Make link" | 22:33 |
DCPom | ah thanks | 22:34 |
vinnl | np :) | 22:35 |
mini-man | just installed xubuntu with wubi, and my headphones don't work, but my speakers do. Ideas? (yes I did google, and no that topic on the forums was of no help whatsoever0 | 22:42 |
vinnl | mini-man, did you plug in the headphones in the correct location? Have you tried the headphones with another OS or other device? | 22:42 |
mini-man | vinnl: they work perfectly on windows | 22:43 |
vinnl | OK | 22:43 |
mini-man | i checked alsamixer and they aren't muted, but I can't raise or lower the volume | 22:43 |
vinnl | mini-man, and they're plugged into the same thing as the speakers? | 22:43 |
mini-man | vinnl: no, i have speakers built in to my monitor | 22:43 |
vinnl | Right... Ehm, you could check using xfce4-mixer | 22:44 |
mini-man | I see no headphones there :o | 22:45 |
vinnl | That's odd... Perhaps you could run alsamixer as root and then edit them, but I have zero experience on this area so I'm probably not the right person to be giving advice... | 22:46 |
mini-man | well in alsamixer I do see headphones | 22:49 |
mini-man | but i'm unable to adjust it | 22:49 |
mini-man | and I do hear feedback in my headphones... | 22:49 |
mini-man | but the sound comes out the monitor speakers | 22:49 |
vinnl | Perhaps ubottu has some advice... | 22:49 |
vinnl | !sound | 22:49 |
ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 22:49 |
vinnl | !headphones | 22:49 |
ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about headphones | 22:49 |
vinnl | :( | 22:49 |
mini-man | hmm wtf, reducing mic volume reduces the "volume" of the feedback in my headphones :D | 22:51 |
mini-man | <-- utter nub at this, in case you haven't noticed yet | 22:51 |
mini-man | brb dinner | 22:56 |
* vinnl off, sleep | 23:03 | |
DCPom | what bash command can you use to get an array of all the files (or file paths) in a folder? | 23:12 |
charlie-tca | ls | 23:12 |
DCPom | ls > VAR? | 23:12 |
charlie-tca | no, cd to the folder and type ls in a terminal. If you want a text file use ls > text_file_name | 23:13 |
DCPom | does that give the actual files or file paths, or just the name? | 23:14 |
DCPom | names* | 23:14 |
charlie-tca | just the names of files in that folder/directory | 23:15 |
DCPom | ah | 23:15 |
charlie-tca | ls --help gives all the options | 23:15 |
DCPom | thanks | 23:17 |
charlie-tca | np | 23:18 |
yesitisjustme | can you have 2 gmail email accounts per person or do they only let you have 1 gmail email account per person? | 23:48 |
yesitisjustme | anyone knows | 23:52 |
charlie-tca | You might need to check on google, but I thought the limit was one per person | 23:53 |
=== miniman is now known as mini-man | ||
yesitisjustme | oh ok | 23:54 |
yesitisjustme | thanks | 23:55 |
charlie-tca | Good luck | 23:55 |
yesitisjustme | :) | 23:56 |
