| domedagen | I need to share dicuments and pictures between xbuntu and opensuse. How? | 09:40 |
| TheSheep | !nfs | 09:45 |
| ubottu | nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS. | 09:45 |
| TheSheep | !sftp | 09:45 |
| ubottu | SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 09:45 |
| TheSheep | !scp | 09:45 |
| ubottu | SCP is a secure way of copying files across networks using !SSH. Usage: scp filename user@host:filename - WinSCP is a client for Windows, available at http://winscp.net/ | 09:45 |
| TheSheep | and, last but not least | 09:45 |

| ubottu | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHFS | 09:45 |
| domedagen | I don't want to use a server | 09:52 |
| domedagen | My wireless card is lame | 09:52 |
| domedagen | I need to partion my HDD | 09:52 |
| domedagen | Create a new partion | 09:52 |
| domedagen | Where I can put my files and then make them reachable on both partions | 09:53 |
| domedagen | Can I just make a partion with gparted by shrinking my root partition? | 09:55 |
| domedagen | How large does my swap partion be if I have 4 GB DDR2 RAM? | 09:57 |
| TheSheep | domedagen: you can just mount the opensuse partition in xubuntu and vice versa | 10:18 |
| TheSheep | !fstab | domedagen | 10:18 |
| ubottu | domedagen: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 10:18 |
| TheSheep | or even use the same partition for home in both distributions | 10:19 |
| TheSheep | (although that might cause some problems with config files for different versions of the same applications) | 10:19 |
| domedagen | Much better | 10:21 |
| tavasti | Where should 'evince' or 'document viewer' be in 'applications'-menu? | 10:29 |
| domedagen | Should I partionate before I install opensuse or when I install opensuse? | 10:31 |
| tavasti | Is there simple way to get launcher to panel from apps-menu item? | 10:36 |
| _Techie_ | drag and drop | 10:38 |
| tavasti | doesn't work | 10:39 |
| tavasti | (in #xubuntu I'm talking about xfce) | 10:40 |
| _Techie_ | you could also use xfce4-quicklauncher-plugin | 10:40 |
| tavasti | drag and drop should work in xfce4? | 10:41 |
| tavasti | with what button? | 10:41 |
| domedagen | Thesheep? | 10:44 |
| TheSheep | domedagen: you can create a new launcher in the panel, and then drag the menu item from /usr/share/applications to the list in the launcher's properties | 10:45 |
| domedagen | No about the partioning | 10:45 |
| domedagen | hould I partionate before I install opensuse or when I install opensuse? | 10:45 |
| TheSheep | domedagen: I don't think it matters | 10:46 |
| TheSheep | domedagen: as long as you create the pratitions you want | 10:46 |
| TheSheep | domedagen: I don't know opensuse's installer, but I suppose it can use existing partitions | 10:46 |
| domedagen | Ok then as soon as my update is ready I'll try partioning | 10:46 |
| domedagen | Yes it can | 10:47 |
| domedagen | What file system does xubuntu use? | 10:48 |
| psycho_oreos | ext3 | 11:02 |
| psycho_oreos | not that it matters that much | 11:02 |

| slow-motion | hi | 13:10 |
| lucijan | hi | 13:40 |
| lucijan | i want to build an internetcafe with some computers and i wonder what the best method is to setup and master cd which can be used to install all other computers | 13:41 |
| juggle | I use the Network Manager that is found at the topright corner on the top panel in the Ubuntu OS,to access the Internet.However,when i log on to a different User,the Icon for the Manager disappears....how can i correct this? | 15:14 |
| likemindead | That's a weird one, juggle. Which version of Xubuntu? | 15:21 |
| juggle | likemindead:Ubuntu 9.04 Gnome | 15:21 |
| likemindead | Head on over to #ubuntu then. | 15:22 |
| juggle | yeah,i'm there .. thx | 15:22 |
| likemindead | I haven't used GNOME in a long time. Sorry. | 15:23 |
| juggle | Gnome is simple,KDE is unnecessarily complex | 15:23 |
| juggle | Can Xubuntu be shipped free? | 15:24 |
| Sysi | as well as ubuntu | 15:24 |
| juggle | Sysi:i visited their site and they say that they don't ship it for free | 15:24 |
| Sysi | oh | 15:25 |
| Sysi | i'm not sure, i use slow internet and usb-stick | 15:25 |
| oorah | how do i put icons on the taskbar from the menus? | 15:29 |
| Sysi | create launcher | 15:29 |
| oorah | Sysi, but how do i get the icon there, just download a picture and hope it fits? | 15:30 |
| Sysi | click default icon in setting window | 15:30 |
| juggle | Sysi:how did you get your xubuntu? | 15:30 |
| Sysi | downloaded | 15:30 |
| juggle | Sysu,ok | 15:31 |
| Sysi | it took one hour with my broadband | 15:31 |
| Sysi | then image to memorystick with unetbootin | 15:31 |
| oorah | Sysi, most the ones i need are not in the icon menu list | 15:32 |
| Sysi | at the top is different icon sets | 15:33 |
| Sysi | or the menu | 15:33 |
| likemindead | I generally use the torrents to get Linux distros, juggle. | 15:33 |
| likemindead | :-) | 15:33 |
| Sysi | or you can browse from /usr/share/icons | 15:33 |
| Sysi | or ~/.icons if you have own there | 15:34 |
| juggle | likemindead, 'torrents'? | 15:34 |
| Sysi | torrent ftw | 15:34 |

| Sysi | the community i think | 15:36 |
| Sysi | http://ubottu.com/ | 15:37 |
| oorah | sysi do you know if gyachi works in xubuntu? | 15:38 |
| oorah | i know it works in ubuntu | 15:38 |
| Sysi | then it will | 15:38 |
| oorah | ok thanks | 15:38 |
| oorah | i did prefer gnome, but the beta has a flickering brightness problem that has been reported many times and its still not fixed, so it seems xfce is more friendly with my system | 15:39 |
| Sysi | you also can install only xfce | 15:39 |
| oorah | Sysi, that is all i have installed now | 15:40 |
| oorah | i discovered vlc doesn't play stuff right, but gxine works just as good for me | 15:40 |
| Sysi | i have kde, gnome and xfce in this :) | 15:40 |
| Sysi | only use xfce, though | 15:41 |
| oorah | oh i see the long list of applications icons you were talking about, but some of them it still doesn't have | 15:41 |
| oorah | oh i see | 15:41 |
| Sysi | "show all icons"? | 15:41 |
| Sysi | starting to type starts searching | 15:42 |
| oorah | not all, not xchat and not firefox | 15:44 |
| Sysi | they should be there | 15:45 |
| oorah | i typed, they didn't show up | 15:45 |
| Sysi | all icons? | 15:45 |
| Sysi | and you have xchat installed with packet manager? | 15:46 |
| Sysi | or come by default | 15:46 |
| oorah | oh i see it thanks | 15:47 |
| oorah | i was looking applications | 15:47 |
| alexande1 | uh i sorta have a question | 15:53 |
| alexande1 | how do i pin, say, terminal to the top bar on the screen | 15:54 |
| alexande1 | dragging didn't work | 15:54 |
| juggle | alexander1: never used xubuntu but i think you should right click the terminal in the main menu and add to panel | 15:55 |
| likemindead | Use Tilda, alexande1 ! | 15:55 |
| alexande1 | tilda? is that an application? | 15:55 |
| likemindead | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilda_%28software%29 | 15:56 |
| likemindead | "sudo apt-get install tilda" | 15:56 |
| likemindead | It's amazing. :-) | 15:56 |
| likemindead | Right click on it to adjust Preferences. | 15:56 |
| alexande1 | cool | 15:56 |
| alexande1 | lemme check it out | 15:57 |
| likemindead | I like to center it horizontally and have it drop down (like in Quake, duh). | 15:59 |
| alexande1 | nice | 16:00 |
| Sysi | i'think to put verve-terminal to panel | 16:00 |
| Sysi | *taskbar or what's it | 16:01 |
| oorah | ok i just installed gyachi, but i don't see that icon in the list. do i need to refresh list somehow? | 16:03 |
| oorah | Sysi, you here? | 16:04 |
| Sysi | ofc | 16:04 |
| Sysi | it shouldn't need refresh | 16:04 |
| Sysi | but needs to be opened after installation i think | 16:05 |
| oorah | Sysi, i did open it | 16:05 |
| oorah | maybe i'll just use one of the yellow smileys | 16:05 |
| oorah | but wish i could find gyachi there | 16:05 |
| Sysi | all icons? | 16:06 |
| oorah | yes, and gyachi has been installed and opened | 16:06 |
| likemindead | You can always "Alt+F2" to run a program. | 16:07 |
| Sysi | installed with packet manager? | 16:07 |
| oorah | Sysi, yes | 16:07 |
| Sysi | hmm, that's weird | 16:07 |
| oorah | Sysi, actually dpkg sorry | 16:07 |
| oorah | it was installed via dpkg | 16:08 |
| oorah | same thing but thats how i did it | 16:08 |
| Sysi | hmm, dpkg isn't maybe enough intelligent | 16:09 |
| Sysi | that is downloaded from somewhere? | 16:09 |
| oorah | yeah, found the download link in a forums | 16:10 |
| Sysi | .deb file? | 16:10 |
| oorah | yes | 16:10 |
| Sysi | is there .gyachi or something in your home folder? | 16:11 |
| oorah | https://launchpad.net/~loell/+archive/ppa/+files/gyachi_1.2.2-1~jaunty_i386.deb thats the link | 16:11 |
| Sysi | it's hidden | 16:11 |
| oorah | what's hidden? | 16:11 |
| Sysi | folder | 16:11 |
| oorah | Sysi, how do i unhide it? | 16:11 |
| Sysi | ctrl + h | 16:12 |
| oorah | where do i type that? | 16:12 |
| Sysi | nowhere :P | 16:12 |
| Sysi | ctrl key | 16:12 |
| oorah | in the icons list? | 16:12 |
| oorah | home folder? | 16:12 |
| Sysi | in file manager | 16:12 |
| oorah | Sysi, whereis that? | 16:13 |
| Sysi | ahem? | 16:13 |
| oorah | is that the same as file system? | 16:13 |
| Sysi | the program you use to open folders | 16:14 |
| oorah | Sysi, in the menu? | 16:14 |
| Sysi | yes | 16:14 |
| Sysi | open your own folder | 16:14 |
| oorah | Sysi, its in the network list | 16:14 |
| oorah | in applications | 16:14 |
| Sysi | propably there still isn't icon for the program | 16:15 |
| oorah | it worked in gnome, just dragged and dropped | 16:16 |
| Sysi | maybe you just need to find one and select browse in icon choosing window | 16:16 |
| Sysi | ubuntu is not exactly like xubuntu | 16:17 |
| oorah | yeah true | 16:19 |
| oorah | is there something like force quit? | 16:19 |
| oorah | that was handy for misbehaving apps | 16:20 |
| oorah | also can't figure out how to put terminal on the bar | 16:21 |
| Sysi | xfce4-terminal | 16:21 |
| Sysi | to command | 16:21 |
| oorah | for command? | 16:21 |
| oorah | oh ok thanks | 16:21 |
| likemindead | oorah, try Tilda. | 16:22 |
| Sysi | you can stop prosesses in task-manager-thing | 16:22 |
| likemindead | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilda_%28software%29 | 16:22 |
| oorah | likemindead, whats Tilda? | 16:22 |
| likemindead | It's amazing is what it is. ;-) | 16:22 |
| likemindead | Quake-style drop down terminal emulator. | 16:23 |
| oorah | i wish there was a force quit. its stupid that there is no gyachi icon even though i see it in network, but its ok i found a yellow smiley in the icons list | 16:23 |
| oorah | what do you mean quake-style? | 16:23 |
| likemindead | I have it start up with each session & then you just hit F1 to drop it down. Highly customizable. | 16:23 |
| likemindead | !tilda | 16:24 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about tilda | 16:24 |
| likemindead | :-( | 16:24 |
| likemindead | http://imagebin.ca/img/op0PjE_B.png | 16:25 |
| oorah | is it possible that the gyachi icon is just available for gnome only? | 16:26 |
| Sysi | no | 16:27 |
| oorah | this is weird, gyachi isn't loading when i click the icon i just put up | 16:27 |
| oorah | oh i fixed it | 16:27 |
| oorah | i forgot the command lol i feel dumb | 16:27 |
| oorah | Sysi, so if the icon is in the app/network menu it has to be on the system somewhere, right? | 16:28 |
| Sysi | i think so | 16:29 |
| Sysi | maybe name is odd? | 16:29 |
| oorah | Sysi, any idea where else to look? lol | 16:29 |
| alexande1 | quit | 17:02 |
| ron_o | locking in a kernel. You can do this with synaptic, supposedly. I did this and other kernels were installed. Does this function work? | 17:57 |
| ron_o | I have DKMS but I still have to change settings in certain apps after a kernel upgrade. I wouldn't mind waiting months between small upgrades rather than days or weeks. | 18:00 |
| droid7 | what application will allow me to setup dual monitors, like the display manager in gnome? | 18:41 |
| likemindead | Settings>Display | 18:42 |
| likemindead | I believe. | 18:42 |
| likemindead | (I've never set up dual monitors... I wish!) | 18:42 |
| droid7 | i tried that, but it only detects my main monitor | 18:42 |
| droid7 | thanks though :) | 18:43 |
| Sysi | xrandr? | 18:43 |
| Sysi | what video card, ati/nvidia/intel? | 18:43 |
| droid7 | intel | 18:44 |
| likemindead | Yeah, XrandR seems to be the way to go. | 18:44 |
| likemindead | !xrandr | 18:45 |
| ubottu | XRandR 1.2 is the new method of running dual screens in !X. Information/HowTo here: http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12 | 18:45 |
| droid7 | cool, I'll give it a shot. Thanks guys | 18:45 |
| likemindead | :D | 18:46 |
| droid7 | \m/ (((do_ob)) \m/ | 18:48 |
| _Techie_ | likemindead, still around? | 19:02 |
| likemindead | Yep. | 19:02 |
| _Techie_ | wait scratch that, was meaning droid7, but hes gone | 19:02 |
| likemindead | Ah. ;-) | 19:02 |
| _Techie_ | i have dual head init scripts that he could have used | 19:03 |
| likemindead | I'm rocking an old 700MHz PIII Dell laptop. Dual monitors are a dream for me.... | 19:04 |
| _Techie_ | haha, 3ghz Celeron D here, dualies are a necessity | 19:05 |
| Sysi | i wish i'd have second screen | 19:06 |
| Sysi | with nvidia it should be easy to configure | 19:06 |
| _Techie_ | yeah, should be a peice of cake... i did it with an ATI | 19:06 |
| Sysi | my friend also | 19:08 |
| Sysi | for 2 days | 19:08 |
| likemindead | I still wish laptops were more modular, i.e. made with mini-PCI ports that would accept mini-PCI graphics cards & such. | 19:10 |
| _Techie_ | yeah | 19:10 |
| _Techie_ | anyone know a quick and easy way to rsync to smb? | 19:27 |
| TheSheep | mount it with smbfs and then rsync? | 19:33 |
