| mikubuntu | i have a 'new' hp scanner that a friend gave me, and it seems to be working right as far as saving images, but it is saving them in a .pnm filetype and open office doesn't seem to be able to open it | 09:16 |
| mikubuntu | omg. i just tried to open the .pnm scanned file with open office and i notice in the file browser its 131 mb's!!! how can that be? | 09:16 |

| TheSheep | ubuXubu: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Theming | 09:22 |
| TheSheep | ubuXubu: also check out /etc/default/grub | 09:23 |
| TheSheep | ubuXubu: I think removing 'quiet splash' from there and then rebuilding grub config would work | 09:23 |
| ubuXubu | if its gonna mess with grub i think maybe ill pass | 09:27 |
| ubuXubu | i read all tha tstuff ...waaayyyy toooo muc hbs there | 09:27 |

| Dynetrekk | hi. I've got a xubuntu box behind my adsl modem. how can I give the xubuntu box a fixed ip? (typically 10.0.0.4) | 20:33 |
| charlie-tca | right click network manager, left click "Edit connections" | 20:35 |
| charlie-tca | click add | 20:35 |
| charlie-tca | Dynetrekk: I usually add IPv4 Settings, make it manual, then add the ip and gateway | 20:36 |
| Dynetrekk | charlie-tca: just a sec, I'll try that | 20:36 |
| Ben_G_9C9_ | What is the difference between Ubuntu and xUbuntu? I can't really tell from the websites. | 22:01 |
| charlie-tca | Ubuntu uses the gnome desktop environment, Xubuntu uses the Xfce desktop environment | 22:02 |
| Ben_G_9C9_ | The screenshots make them look functionally identical. | 22:03 |
| charlie-tca | Ubuntu makes most of the choices for you, Xubuntu makes you make the choices | 22:03 |
| charlie-tca | Screenshots where? | 22:04 |
| Ben_G_9C9_ | Desktop screen shots on the Ubuntu and xUbuntu websites. | 22:04 |
| charlie-tca | what are the url's ? | 22:04 |
| Ben_G_9C9_ | hold on... | 22:04 |
| Sysi | !xfce | 22:06 |
| ubottu | Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels | 22:06 |
| Ben_G_9C9_ | http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop and http://www.xubuntu.org/tour | 22:06 |
| agitator | does xubuntu use the ubuntu update channels? | 22:07 |
| charlie-tca | yes | 22:07 |
| agitator | thx | 22:07 |
| charlie-tca | Ben_G_9C9_: software center is the same in both environments | 22:08 |
| charlie-tca | user preferences is much different, as is gnumeric vs openoffice, abiword vs openoffice, parole vs totem, pidgin vs empathy, gimp vs ??? | 22:09 |
| charlie-tca | some apps will be the same, many will not be | 22:09 |
| Ben_G_9C9_ | Okay. Thanks. That answered my question. | 22:10 |
