[23:51] i am saddenned. i cant avoid needing ms onenote for my work, and i cant get it too work in kubuntu, so i have to set aside some disk space to reinstall vista for it. [23:52] sorry. i am still getting used to typing on the small kb of the laptop [23:52] hehe [23:52] cato37: wait... you cannot get an _ms_ app to work on kubuntu? and that makes you sad? [23:52] it makes me sad that i have to reinstall vista [23:52] cato37, you can try it with wine or setup a windows image in virtualbox [23:52] cato37: if you decide to rely on microsoft apps... well... [23:52] virtualbox? [23:53] Torch: i dont have a choice. work requires it. [23:53] yes, it "simulates" a computer in your computer, its awesome [23:53] cato37: http://www.virtualbox.org/ [23:53] thanx [23:53] maybe i wont have to partition the disk [23:54] cato37: well, blame your employer then, not linux. or kubuntu. [23:54] lol, i am not blaming linux nor, kubuntu. [23:54] i am not smart enough to get wine to work [23:55] cato37: wine is nothing more than a crutch. [23:55] cato37, its very simple, just type "wine $MONETONE_INSTALLER.exe" into the terminal [23:55] cato37: not relying on windows-only-apps is a lot smarter. [23:55] or you just click on the installer exe in dolphin [23:56] cato37, then wine will install it into the wine dir [23:56] but there's a chance that it wont work with wine [23:56] i keep getting errors that the c directory doesnt exist when trying to install ms stuff [23:57] cato37, normally it should create the c dir automatically [23:59] i think it is because i i made two users, the 1000 one is my personal login, and the 1001 is for work, but i dont need the m$ stuff for the personal login. [23:59] i will log into it and see if it works from there. brb.
