| henson | Oops, just registered. If you guys didn't see this before, "How can I enable spellcheck in Firefox?" | 03:46 |
| haywire | henson: on my version, it is in edit>Preferences>advanced>browsing>check my spelling.... | 03:51 |
| henson | haywire: Hah. I actually had it set right. I just didn't have a dictionary installed. Weird | 03:53 |
| henson | If I installed the xubuntu 10.4 beta, will it automatically update to the real thing later? | 03:54 |
| haywire | glad u figured it out, 'cauz i'm a newbie myself...;-) | 03:54 |
| henson | haywire: I didn't see the option for dictionary until you pointed me in the right direction :p | 03:54 |
| haywire | I'm not sure if a dictionary is considered an "addon" within firefox, or whether it can be added with the "add/remove apps" | 03:55 |
| xubuntu367 | am installing...xubuntu installs faster than standard ubuntu. | 05:16 |
| Name141 | what is the command to upgrade all important security updates and etc, just as if you was to use the update manager? | 09:36 |
| Name141 | sudo apt-get upgrade ? | 09:36 |
| Balsaq | do you want to upgrade or update? | 09:46 |
| Name141 | Balsaq: I just want to do all the security updates and all that as if I was using "upgrade manager" ? | 09:49 |
| Name141 | -? | 09:49 |
| knome | Name141, upgrade is correct operation | 09:50 |
| bazhang | sudo apt-get update updates package list; sudo apt-get upgrade gets security fixes, and newer versions if any | 09:50 |
| Balsaq | mine just come automatically | 09:51 |
| Name141 | ok, so sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade , will get everything I need? | 09:51 |
| Balsaq | and when i take the updates it offers me the next upgrade if one is available | 09:51 |
| knome | Name141, yep. | 09:51 |
| Name141 | sweetness. | 09:51 |
| Balsaq | hi knome | 09:52 |
| Name141 | Would I need to check that say.. weekly or something ? | 09:52 |
| knome | hello Balsaq | 09:52 |
| bazhang | Name141, depends on you | 09:53 |
| knome | weekly should be fair enough | 09:53 |
| knome | hey bazhang | 09:53 |
| bazhang | knome, hi! | 09:53 |
| Name141 | OK. I just want the machine to run eggdrop and maybe UnrealIRCd | 09:53 |
| Name141 | it's an old machine | 09:53 |
| Name141 | so I put hardy on it | 09:53 |
| bazhang | weekly is more than enough | 09:53 |
| bazhang | you may wish at some point to go from LTS to LTS though | 09:54 |
| Name141 | Yeah, the next one is coming out in like 5ish days? | 09:54 |
| knome | 29th | 09:54 |
| Name141 | probably 20 before I can download it at a resonable speed? | 09:54 |
| bazhang | 6ish | 09:54 |
| Name141 | hardy is only telling me it needs 301 MBs of upgrades. | 09:56 |
| Name141 | I figured it'd be a hole lot more? | 09:56 |
| Name141 | it was 8.04 not 8.04.2 | 09:57 |
| dekroning | hi | 11:19 |
| moetunes | hi dekroning | 11:20 |
| dekroning | installing xubuntu 9.10, wondering how fast it will perform on my Atom pc, ubuntu it self was a bit slowish | 11:21 |
| dekroning | with gnome as desktop manager | 11:21 |
| hatake_kakashi | you might want to try unr | 11:22 |
| _Techie_ | on an aton, Xubuntu will run fine | 11:22 |
| _Techie_ | atom* | 11:22 |
| dekroning | hatake_kakashi: unr ? | 11:22 |
| hatake_kakashi | !unr | 11:22 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu Netbook Remix is a slightly altered version of Ubuntu, optimised for small screens. For more information, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UNR - support in #ubuntu | 11:22 |
| dekroning | _Techie_: yeah but for some reason normal Ubuntu on this atom, was pretty slow, atleast webbrowsing wasn't really snappy | 11:29 |
| _Techie_ | may have been your connection | 11:29 |
| dekroning | _Techie_: hehe now, it was really the machine, i was also browsing a webpage on my local lan | 11:30 |
| SCC-Faust | if only if only | 11:30 |
| SCC-Faust | the roses were lonely | 11:30 |
| dekroning | _Techie_: also i did some JavaScript benchmarking, and that didn't look too well | 11:30 |
| moetunes | SCC-Faust: wrong channel - you need #didn't-knowit-but-I'm-a-poet :] | 11:36 |
| Name141 | maw maw maw maw.. I wanna hold'em like they do in Texas please. | 11:37 |
| moetunes | heh | 11:38 |

| dekroning | i just installed "vino" for vnc, but where can i find it in my menu structure? | 12:15 |
| moetunes | dekroning: try in terminal sudo update-menus then check again - haven't used vino here | 12:17 |
| dekroning | moetunes: i don't seem to have a update-menus command | 12:18 |
| dekroning | ah i need to install menu-xdg i see | 12:18 |
| dekroning | or not | 12:19 |
| moetunes | dekroning: sorry - does vino from terminal return anything? | 12:19 |
| moetunes | k | 12:19 |
| dekroning | or do you know a better/easier vnc server to use ? | 12:20 |
| moetunes | I use xvnc | 12:20 |
| moetunes | !vnc | 12:21 |
| ubottu | VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 12:21 |
| dekroning | moetunes: the x11vnc package you mean? | 12:22 |
| moetunes | dekroning: that seemed the lightest to me yes | 12:22 |
| dekroning | moetunes: perfect, i'll try that one | 12:22 |
| moetunes | luck | 12:23 |
| dekroning | i choose vino because i knew it was running on my ubuntu install :) | 12:23 |
| moetunes | heh | 12:24 |
| dekroning | moetunes: should x11vnc be somewhere in the xfce menu's btw ? | 12:28 |
| hatake_kakashi | x11vnc I believe is a console/terminal based command | 12:29 |
| moetunes | dekroning: I had to make a shortcut to it - but I use an old xubuntu | 12:29 |
| moetunes | or what hatake_kakashi said :] | 12:30 |
| dekroning | ok, i just need it auto start when xfce is launched | 12:30 |
| hatake_kakashi | and `sudo aptitude search vino'. If it prints out i in the first column it would mean vino is installed.. again if no extra items in menus its most likely a console/terminal command | 12:31 |
| moetunes | settings manager - autostart is what you need | 12:31 |
| jst_ | Does anyone know if Xubuntu 10.04's weather applet will be 0.7.2? | 13:53 |
| hatake_kakashi | !lucid | 13:54 |
| ubottu | Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 29th, 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 - Development Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule | 13:54 |
| jst_ | hatake_kakashi, I realize all of that already... | 13:54 |
| hatake_kakashi | jst_, and you chose to ask in here knowing that you'll get slapped with that message :P | 13:54 |
| jst_ | Touche. I'd ask in #xubuntu+1, but nobody is in there. | 13:55 |
| hatake_kakashi | #ubuntu+1 not #xubuntu+1 | 13:56 |
| jst_ | Nevermind. packages.ubuntu.com answered my question. | 13:56 |
| moetunes | lucid support is in here as well for most things... | 13:56 |

| dekroning | where can i turn off al monitor power savings? i tried using xset dpms, but this doesn't hold after a reboot | 14:23 |
| Sysi | settings → power managment for me | 14:24 |
| moetunes | dekroning: is there an option for dpms in you're xorg.config? | 14:25 |
| dekroning | moetunes: ubuntu 9.10 doesn't come with a xorg.config file | 14:26 |
| moetunes | dekroning: not by default but you can make one | 14:26 |
| moetunes | didn't know if you had dekroning | 14:27 |
| dekroning | ah oke | 14:27 |
| moetunes | :] | 14:27 |
| dekroning | i haven't one actually | 14:27 |
| dekroning | :) | 14:27 |
| moetunes | dekroning: in the file /var/log/Xorg.log.0 it might say it uses dpms by default | 14:28 |
| dekroning | moetunes: ah yeah, nice one, let me check | 14:28 |
| moetunes | k | 14:29 |
| moetunes | gotta go so bye :] | 14:30 |

| Twitchblade | With 10.04 being released soon, can I opt for a fresh install from Update Manager? I have a cooked CD Drive, and would like a fresh start. | 18:10 |
| knome | Twitchblade, no, you must burn the cd manually and run the installation from the disc. | 18:11 |
| Twitchblade | well that sucks, I'll have to try using the Update, and making a bootable flash drive. | 18:11 |
