[07:52] <syn-ack> Good morning, cody-somerville
[07:57] <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
[08:04] <knome> titan_ark, with 'crontab -e' ?
[08:09] <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
[08:10] <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"
[08:11] <knome> eg. "export EDITOR=nano"
[08:11] <knome> then the command opens crontab file in nano
[08:12] <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 :)
[08:13] <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
[08:14] <titan_ark> ah okay
[08:14] <titan_ark> got it
[08:14] <titan_ark> :)
[08:28] <knome> bbl, have fun
[08:38] <titan_ark> damn :( unable to get it to work :(
[08:45] <titan_ark> knome, unable to get it to run any application.
[13:54] <ouyes> how to add a lock screen shortcut to xubuntu in 9.10???
[13:55] <charlie-tca> Use ctrl+Alt+Del?
[13:56] <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
[13:57] <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 ?
[13:58] <ouyes> then how to add a shortcut to home fold
[13:58] <ouyes> open home
[14:01] <ouyes> how to add a command shortcut to open home fold( places)??
[14:11] <TheSheep> ouyes: thunar
[14:12] <ouyes> how to add a shortcut, what is the command to open home folder or places
[14:13] <TheSheep> the command is 'thunar'
[14:14] <TheSheep> you can also open other directories with 'thunar path/to/the/directory'
[14:41] <ouyes> what music player are you using?
[14:44] <Sysi> the one i like
[14:44] <TheSheep> I like quodlibet
[14:45] <Sysi> it seems nice but i somehow fail, and use rhythmbox
[14:59] <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
[15:00] <charlie-tca> I don't know if it will run into any issues trying to install in 2GB, due to tmp files, however.
[15:01] <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?
[15:02] <elysian> Or maybe a slim version of the install.
[15:03] <TheSheep> you can install ubuntu-server and add anything you need to it
[15:04] <TheSheep> I think the alternate-cd lets you do that too
[15:04] <elysian> Thanks, I'll look into that now.
[15:49]  * likemindead is feeling the need to go for Lucid. :D
[22:52] <Omar87> Hi all.
[22:52] <Omar87> For some reason, sound is muted by default at startup. How can I fix that?
[23:00] <charlie-tca> Remove pulse audio
[23:01] <charlie-tca> It is fixed in lucid, even with pulse audio installed. That will be a nice feature.
[23:02]  * Sysi can't waiting lucid download to be reay
[23:02] <Sysi> *ready
