[08:31] I want to dock some shortcuts in my desktop. [08:40] konsumer: /usr/bin [08:40] Ty :) [08:40] * sarts_ is going to bitch at brian [08:40] :p [12:24] hey everyone, i'm on karmic and i just tried to change the default boot os in grub2 and failed. is there more to do than edit GRUB_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub ? [12:25] boot the livecd, mount partitions, chroot and go from there [12:25] err lol misread [12:25] ignore what I wrote [12:26] ah right... was already wondering :) [14:52] ls [14:53] ls -a [16:39] I have an interesting problem. audio works for every application except my music players (lastfm excluded). I'm on xubuntu 9.04 amd64 [17:19] gaurdro: maybe you don't have the codecs for mp3? [17:19] !mp3 | gaurdro [17:19] gaurdro: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [17:23] it's possible I missed something but I'm pretty sure I have the codecs. it doesn't error out, or anything like that. all the music players appear to play the file in realtime, just no sound. flash, last.fm, dvd through vlc media player all work with sound. [17:27] you use pulseaudio? [17:31] how does one check that? [17:33] I google'd and I'm going to go with no. [18:23] hmm hello, how can I use Compose Key in xubuntu? [20:10] Hi! How to bypass the trash and delete a file completely? [20:16] I got it... shift-del :-) [21:00] does xubuntu cocme with compiz-fusion? === Pricey is now known as PriceChild === PriceChild is now known as Pricey [21:39] hi [21:39] what do you use to edit and make pdfs? [21:39] I am extracting some pages from ine large pdf to make a few pages one [21:40] I am extracting with page per page in inscape [21:40] and hope to later put those pages together [21:40] You were doing something smarter? [22:30] nikolam: there is a number of commandline pdf tools [22:30] nikolam: there is also pdfedit, but it seems very advanced [22:30] hm :) what is command line hah :) [22:30] ok. 10x TheSheep [22:31] nikolam: commandline: pdftk, pdfcrack, pdfsam [22:32] xpdf-utils too [22:32] and ghostscript, of course === Pricey is now known as PriceChlid === PriceChlid is now known as PriceChild [22:34] hmm... qpdf looks nice too [22:37] hm, trying to build it on hardy.. [22:41] TheSheep, is there a way to lower default process priority , of processes that are doing instalaltion of packages, say through synaptic, etc. [22:42] When installing large packages, all processes suffed becouse of that, Hardy [22:42] you can start them with nice, or change their priority later with renice [22:44] hm, that is nice solution :) No way to change default `niceness` [22:44] you can always start synaptic with nice... [22:44] its children will have the same priority [22:45] apt may have something better in the config [22:45] but I don't know it well [22:48] TheSheep, you are great, Btw, you know :) [22:50] but of course
