LegendreEvening..04:37
Legendreor morning/afternoon as it were.. I have a simple question. Is there a (gui) util that shows disk usage, how much space is being used by various files / dirs etc?04:38
Legendreso like, when a partition fills up, you can figure out what's using all the space, target files for deletion / relocation and so forth?04:39

kushalsejwalhello everyone, what can I install as an alternative to PowerPoint or OOo Impress in Xubuntu?13:14
pleia2I just use Impress, but the KDE office suite also has "kpresenter"13:19
pleia2if you're looking to write a presentation, there are other options aside from doing it in one of these programs, I've used the html/css based "s5" system before13:20
kushalsejwalpleia2: me too use and love impress but I was installing Xubuntu on a system which has very less ram so thought if there is some lighter alternative like abiword13:20
pleia2unfortunately not13:20
kushalsejwalpleia2: yes you are right, I think I have to settle for OOo impress only13:22
kushalsejwalpleia2: will xubuntu 9.10 work fine on a system with 256 mb ram?13:23
pleia2kushalsejwal: 256 is the *minimum* requirement13:24
pleia2"Once installed, Xubuntu can run with starting from 192 (or even just 128) MB RAM, but it is strongly recommended to have at least 256 MB RAM."13:24
pleia2it won't be fast, but it should be ok13:24
kushalsejwalokay13:24
kushalsejwalI hope better than ubuntu, because I tried running ubuntu on the same system and it was very slow13:25
pleia2yeah13:25
pleia2you might also consider installing fluxbox, which is a lighter weight window manager13:25
kushalsejwalokay13:26
kushalsejwalthanks pleia2 for all the suggestions :)13:27
pleia2you're welcome :)13:27
kushalsejwalI am complete Gnome lover and therefore always stick to ubuntu... but there is only one DE which attracts me after GNOME i.e XFCE13:30
kushalsejwalits nice and simple13:31
mcqrHi, can anyone tell me why a user is not listet in Users and groups? I have also problems wiht login screen, where no user picture (not even default) is shown.15:04
TheSheepmcqr: is it listed in /etc/passwd?15:04
mcqrTheSheep, yes it is "matic:x:500:500:Matic,,,:/home/matic:/bin/bash"15:06
TheSheepmcqr: its pid should be 1000 or larger15:07
TheSheepmcqr: how did you create that user?15:08
mcqrTheSheep, This is the user created during installation.15:08
TheSheepmcqr: version?15:09
mcqrTheSheep, 9.1015:09
TheSheepstrange, mine has pid 1000, also user created during install15:10
TheSheepmcqr: which cd? desktop or alternate?15:10
mcqrTheSheep, desktop15:10
TheSheep:/15:10
TheSheepsame here15:11
mcqrTheSheep, can this be because I used the home partition before in fedora and didn't formated it?15:11
TheSheepno, I don't think so15:12
TheSheepcan you create  new user and see what pid it has?15:12
mcqrTheSheep, the pid of new created user is 1000 and is listed in "users and groups"15:14
TheSheepmcqr: why don't you just use that user?15:16
mcqrTheSheep: I'll log out and see if the user is listed in login screen15:17
mcqrTheSheep: The new user is listed in login screen, so I'll use this one. Thak you for your support.15:23

Psilocybin_ElfDoes anyone know of a good command line program for torrents.....something like wget but for..well, torrents!?18:40
eXpl0i7why command line?18:45
onaoghi never heard of cl torrent client18:45
eXpl0i7you don't have X?18:45
eXpl0i7or something else?18:45
onaoghanyways, what does this line in ~/.config/Thunar/thurarrc mean: LastSeparatorPosition=11818:46
onaoghactually, i am looking for a way to let Thunar always start in a fixed position18:46
onaoghright now, it starts in random positions18:46
eXpl0i7onaogh: hmm....18:51
onaogheXpl0i7, hmmm... dont tell me google it, because google didnt return anything regarding this18:53
eXpl0i7i'm try to find something on google, but no luck18:54
onaogh:) already googling for hours18:55
eXpl0i7:)18:56
onaoghsome dudes here told me that he is fine with Thunar positioning, he says thunar remember last position18:56
onaoghbut in mycase, it doesn't, i am using ubuntu 9.1018:56
onaoghmaybe because my screen is small, it is X61 12"18:56
eXpl0i7i'm using 9.04 but thunar not remember position18:58
eXpl0i7xD18:58
onaoghi checked the Thunar configuration file, there is nothing mentioning the last position, rather than that, there is a line about last saved dimensions18:59
onaogh~/.config/Thunar/thunarrc19:00
mhall119onaogh, it's the window manager that positions it19:13
mhall119I don't know if you can set xfwm rules to place it in the same place every time19:13
mhall119devilspie is a program that lets you do it though, you might try that19:14
Psilocybin_ElfI do have X, I use Vuze for torrents....I just prefer smaller, cl programs to save memory...19:24
eXpl0i7Psilocybin_Elf: Deluge is a good torrent client19:28
