titan_ark | i am unable to edit or view crontab, is there a problem? | 07:57 |
titan_ark | neither does the .allow or .deny files exist | 07:57 |
knome | titan_ark, with 'crontab -e' ? | 08:04 |
titan_ark | knome, i tried crontab -l and it says no crontab | 08:09 |
knome | titan_ark, then you don't have one. | 08:09 |
titan_ark | when i check for cron.allow or cron.deny also i am told no such files exist | 08:09 |
titan_ark | okay | 08:09 |
knome | titan_ark, should there be one? (read: have you defined any cron rules before?) | 08:10 |
titan_ark | knome, i wanted to set up a scheduled rsync operation to back my files | 08:10 |
titan_ark | ah, nope | 08:10 |
knome | titan_ark, crontab -e then | 08:10 |
titan_ark | just trying it out first time | 08:10 |
knome | titan_ark, also, if you want to use other than the default text editor, first run "export EDITOR=editor_of_your_choice" | 08:10 |
knome | eg. "export EDITOR=nano" | 08:11 |
knome | then the command opens crontab file in nano | 08:11 |
titan_ark | yeah it said doing for first time and opened it | 08:12 |
knome | :) | 08:12 |
titan_ark | now i need to figure out how to add it | 08:12 |
titan_ark | :D | 08:12 |
knome | ;] | 08:12 |
titan_ark | thx a bunch :) | 08:12 |
knome | np | 08:13 |
knome | there are many tutorials on crontab on the internet, so you should be fine | 08:13 |
titan_ark | I see this in the first line, shall i delete it?# m h dom mon dow command | 08:13 |
knome | no | 08:13 |
knome | as it starts with #, it means it's a comment | 08:13 |
titan_ark | ah okay | 08:14 |
titan_ark | got it | 08:14 |
titan_ark | :) | 08:14 |
knome | bbl, have fun | 08:28 |

ouyes | how to add a lock screen shortcut to xubuntu in 9.10??? | 13:54 |
charlie-tca | Use ctrl+Alt+Del? | 13:55 |
charlie-tca | It should already be defined | 13:56 |
TheSheep | xflock | 13:56 |
ouyes | charlie-tca, you are not in xfce | 13:56 |
charlie-tca | I am using xubuntu, which included | 13:56 |
charlie-tca | it does use Xfce | 13:56 |
ouyes | but it should be ctrl+alt+L | 13:57 |
TheSheep | xflock4, sorry | 13:57 |
TheSheep | ouyes: it's configured in the keyboard settings | 13:57 |
charlie-tca | If you are using Xubuntu, Ctrl+Alt+Del from the desktop should lock the screen | 13:57 |
ouyes | i am used to that, how to ? | 13:57 |
ouyes | then how to add a shortcut to home fold | 13:58 |
ouyes | open home | 13:58 |
ouyes | how to add a command shortcut to open home fold( places)?? | 14:01 |
TheSheep | ouyes: thunar | 14:11 |
ouyes | how to add a shortcut, what is the command to open home folder or places | 14:12 |
TheSheep | the command is 'thunar' | 14:13 |
TheSheep | you can also open other directories with 'thunar path/to/the/directory' | 14:14 |
ouyes | what music player are you using? | 14:41 |
Sysi | the one i like | 14:44 |
TheSheep | I like quodlibet | 14:44 |
Sysi | it seems nice but i somehow fail, and use rhythmbox | 14:45 |
elysian | Hey, question, I'm trying to install an easy to use distro in under 2gbs, and #Ubuntu suggested I try Xubuntu, so, does anyone know if you can get it to work in under 2gbs, or if not has any suggestions as to which distro I could try? | 14:59 |
charlie-tca | Xubuntu 9.10 requires about 1.6GB after installation | 14:59 |
charlie-tca | I don't know if it will run into any issues trying to install in 2GB, due to tmp files, however. | 15:00 |
elysian | Really? That's great, it's for some old PCs in my school, first time we'll be introducing anything open source related to the school. | 15:01 |
elysian | Ah. | 15:01 |
elysian | Is there anyway to control the packages installed? | 15:01 |
elysian | Or maybe a slim version of the install. | 15:02 |
TheSheep | you can install ubuntu-server and add anything you need to it | 15:03 |
TheSheep | I think the alternate-cd lets you do that too | 15:04 |
elysian | Thanks, I'll look into that now. | 15:04 |

Omar87 | For some reason, sound is muted by default at startup. How can I fix that? | 22:52 |
charlie-tca | Remove pulse audio | 23:00 |

charlie-tca | Well, they just broke the sound for lucid. | 23:21 |
