[03:43] <henson> How can I enable spellcheck in Firefox?
[03:46] <henson> Oops, just registered.  If you guys didn't see this before, "How can I enable spellcheck in Firefox?"
[03:51] <haywire> henson: on my version, it is in edit>Preferences>advanced>browsing>check my spelling....
[03:53] <henson> haywire: Hah.  I actually had it set right.  I just didn't have a dictionary installed.  Weird
[03:54] <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
[03:55] <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"
[05:16] <xubuntu367> am installing...xubuntu installs faster than standard ubuntu.
[09:36] <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 ?
[09:46] <Balsaq> do you want to upgrade or update?
[09:49] <Name141> Balsaq: I just want to do all the security updates and all that as if I was using "upgrade manager" ?
[09:49] <Name141> -?
[09:50] <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
[09:51] <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.
[09:52] <Balsaq> hi knome
[09:52] <Name141> Would I need to check that say.. weekly or something ?
[09:52] <knome> hello Balsaq
[09:53] <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
[09:54] <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
[09:56] <Name141> hardy is only telling me it needs 301 MBs of upgrades.
[09:56] <Name141> I figured it'd be a hole lot more?
[09:57] <Name141> it was 8.04 not 8.04.2
[11:19] <dekroning> hi
[11:20] <moetunes> hi dekroning
[11:21] <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
[11:22] <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
[11:29] <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
[11:30] <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
[11:36] <moetunes> SCC-Faust: wrong channel - you need #didn't-knowit-but-I'm-a-poet :]
[11:37] <Name141> maw maw maw maw.. I wanna hold'em like they do in Texas please.
[11:38] <moetunes> heh

[12:15] <dekroning> i just installed "vino" for vnc, but where can i find it in my menu structure?
[12:17] <moetunes> dekroning: try in terminal   sudo update-menus   then check again - haven't used vino here
[12:18] <dekroning> moetunes: i don't seem to have a update-menus command
[12:18] <dekroning> ah i need to install menu-xdg i see
[12:19] <dekroning> or not
[12:19] <moetunes> dekroning: sorry  - does   vino   from terminal return anything?
[12:19] <moetunes> k
[12:20] <dekroning> or do you know a better/easier vnc server to use ?
[12:20] <moetunes> I use xvnc
[12:21] <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
[12:22] <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
[12:23] <moetunes> luck
[12:23] <dekroning> i choose vino because i knew it was running on my ubuntu install :)
[12:24] <moetunes> heh
[12:28] <dekroning> moetunes: should x11vnc be somewhere in the xfce menu's btw ?
[12:29] <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
[12:30] <moetunes> or what hatake_kakashi said :]
[12:30] <dekroning> ok, i just need it auto start when xfce is launched
[12:31] <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
[13:53] <jst_> Does anyone know if Xubuntu 10.04's weather applet will be 0.7.2?
[13:54] <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
[13:55] <jst_> Touche.  I'd ask in #xubuntu+1, but nobody is in there.
[13:56] <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...

[14:23] <dekroning> where can i turn off al monitor power savings? i tried using  xset dpms, but this doesn't hold after a reboot
[14:24] <Sysi> settings → power managment for me
[14:25] <moetunes> dekroning: is there an option for dpms in you're xorg.config?
[14:26] <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
[14:27] <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> :)
[14:28] <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
[14:29] <moetunes> k
[14:30] <moetunes> gotta go so bye :]
[15:24] <dekroning> my color's don't seem to be correct, is there a way to calibrate my screen?
[15:25] <Sysi> usually it's possible straight from hardware(screen)
[15:46] <handjob> Hi. How can i force ristretto to display photos according to date of last modification?
[18:00] <neiliob1973> anyone know how to get Gwibber to do multi-column in 9.10?
[18:10] <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.
[18:11] <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.
[20:08] <crow> is there 10.4 rc of xubuntu avaible?
[20:29] <paddy_> I just installed Disk Utility from the ubuntu softwere center and i has an annoying glitch in it where it give you a link to the mountpoint of a drive but must run a command like nailtus [mountpoint] this does not work with any other file manager aside from naituls and just produces an error in xubuntu, would it be possible to provide a patch for this in the means of custumizable file managers
[21:28] <nick2344> hello, I just installed Xubuntu 10.04 rc with vmware, but my keyboard is not working in Xubuntu
[21:28] <nick2344> does anyone know how to solve this ?
