| craig | Hi guys, anyone available to try and help with a live streaming problem i'm having? specifically a radio staion (.pls) | 11:38 |
| kosaidpo | which one is good/easy to use and intuitve and got a big community archbang or crunchbang ? | 14:12 |
| kosaidpo | hello guys | 14:12 |
| kosaidpo | which one is good/easy to use and intuitve and got a big community archbang or crunchbang ? | 14:12 |
| duanedesign | hello kosaidpo | 14:17 |
| duanedesign | The ‘bangs are popular these days and have been for a while. Crunchbang has a reputation for scooping Ubuntu users who find the default arrangement a little heavy, while Archbang is a relatively recent offshoot to do the same thing, just with Arch Linux. | 14:18 |
| pedro3005 | if setting up archbang is anything like setting up arch, it's not exactly easy and intuitive | 14:19 |
| duanedesign | i would suspect Crunchbang has the larger community, if only because it has been around longer | 14:20 |
| sebsebseb | Hi | 14:30 |
| Silver_Fox_ | Hello. | 15:03 |
| AbhiJit | hellloooo Silver_Fox_ :) | 15:04 |
| Silver_Fox_ | Hello AbhiJit . | 15:04 |
| AbhiJit | :) | 15:04 |
| duanedesign | Silver_Fox_: hello | 15:15 |
| Silver_Fox_ | Hello duanedesign. | 15:15 |
| duanedesign | Silver_Fox_: how have you been? dont think i have chatted with you in a few days :) | 15:15 |
| duanedesign | Silver_Fox_: did you see my email on the mailing list? cprofitt has started some work on updating the site for the new theme https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BeginnersTeam/ | 15:16 |
| Silver_Fox_ | I am fine thank you, how are you? | 15:17 |
| Silver_Fox_ | Yes, I got the email regarding the wiki. | 15:17 |
| duanedesign | Silver_Fox_: i am doing good. Weather is cooling down here. Fall/Spring always brighten my mood | 15:17 |
| Silver_Fox_ | Splending. | 15:18 |
| duanedesign | Silver_Fox_: can finally break out the jeans and sweatshirts and retire the shorts | 15:18 |
| Silver_Fox_ | Splendid | 15:18 |
| Silver_Fox_ | I prefer winter to summer also. | 15:18 |
| * duanedesign nods | 15:19 | |
| duanedesign | Silver_Fox_: look at this neat graph made of #ubuntu http://popey.com/graphs/ubuntu.ogv | 15:19 |
| duanedesign | more an animation then graph i guess | 15:20 |
| Silver_Fox_ | Interesting concept, though the movie is moving far to quick to interpret what it is showing. You cannot for instance keep track of who is in the channel. | 15:23 |
| duanedesign | Silver_Fox_: i thought the same thing | 15:24 |
| duanedesign | Silver_Fox_: i am making one for #ubuntu-beginners-team, will definetly try and slow it down some | 15:25 |
| Silver_Fox_ | I do not join that channel often, so i am safe from "social networking" =] | 15:26 |
| duanedesign | :) | 15:26 |
| Silver_Fox_ | I do expect some will still like to see tthe channel activities in non log form. | 15:26 |
| duanedesign | Silver_Fox_: i think it will be fun. | 15:27 |
| duanedesign | Silver_Fox_: have a sec for a quick PM? | 15:28 |

| johnny77 | does anyone have a recommendation for PDF viewer? | 17:08 |
| pedro3005 | evince | 17:09 |
| johnny77 | evince's website says "Ubuntu has evince in main and in the default install" does that mean in the software center or already install? I can't find it either place, | 17:14 |
| Silver_Fox_ | alt+f2 then submit: evince | 17:15 |
| johnny77 | Being used to windows I downloaded adobe viewer. How do I get pdfs to open into evince again? | 17:19 |
| johnny77 | is there a way to get a folder into the favorites menu? | 17:22 |
| hobgoblin | johnny77: find a pdf - right click - properties - change to evince | 17:25 |
| hobgoblin | and what menu is that? | 17:26 |
| johnny77 | you click the little ubuntu icon and get the menu, the top one says favorites. I can add applications to it, but wondered if I can add folders. | 17:27 |
| johnny77 | hobgoblin: thanks got the pdfs to open in evidence. | 17:27 |
| ehcah | aveilleux? | 17:58 |
| aveilleux | ehcah? | 17:59 |
| ehcah | Hello my man! | 18:00 |
| ehcah | Wanted to say thank you for your help yesterday. | 18:00 |
| aveilleux | Err... hello | 18:01 |
| aveilleux | You're very welcome :3 | 18:01 |
| ehcah | Sorry to take you away from your class! | 18:01 |
| ehcah | ;) | 18:01 |
| aveilleux | Haha, it's fine. We don't do much in that class anyway. | 18:01 |
| ehcah | I should have been working too. | 18:01 |
| ehcah | Damn home office's. | 18:01 |
| ehcah | I finally got the app working this morning. I had to trial and error copy .dll's from the /root/~/system32/ folder, modify permissions and then spend time comparing both root / jason registries. | 18:02 |
| ehcah | Good times! | 18:03 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Oh, so it was looking for the dll file in the same directory as the executable? | 18:03 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: And people ask my why I prefer Linux's library format more... | 18:03 |
| ehcah | LOL | 18:04 |
| ehcah | I first had registry errors. | 18:04 |
| aveilleux | I'm going to get food before the stupid dining hall closes at 1330 (It's 1300 here now) | 18:04 |
| ehcah | Then missing files. Then etc... | 18:05 |
| ehcah | Enjoy lunch. | 18:05 |
| ehcah | Just wanted to say thank you. | 18:05 |
| johnny77 | can anyone help my with symbolic links? | 18:29 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | Joeb454: can you elaborate your question? Symbolic kinks means like $ or # in the address of the link? | 18:31 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | aww johnny77 ^ | 18:31 |
| aveilleux | johnny77: ln -s <target> <name_of_link> | 18:31 |
| johnny77 | aveilleux: type that in the terminal? And should I be in the directory I want the link when I create it? | 18:33 |
| aveilleux | johnny77: Yes, in terminal. And yes, you want to be in the dir where the link will be located. You can move symlinks around, but it's easiest to just be in the directory. | 18:33 |
| aveilleux | johnny77: You can use relative paths in symlinks, ex. if you want to make a symlink to ~/Pictures/whatever (and you're located in ~/Desktop), you can do ln -s ../Pictures/whatever Pictures | 18:35 |
| ehcah | Are there any other email clients which can connect to MS Exchange besides Evolution? | 18:39 |
| donniezazen | hi | 18:45 |
| johnny77 | aveilleux: when I type that in the command line I get a error: "ln: target 'name' is not a directory." But I know it is because I type the <target> after and it says <target> is a directory. | 18:46 |
| aveilleux | johnny77: Hmm, it works for me... can you type the whole command you are executing here, please? | 18:48 |
| johnny77 | ln -s /home/jdmcclung/downloads downloads | 18:48 |
| aveilleux | johnny77: can you paste the output of the pwd command, please? | 18:49 |
| johnny77 | how? | 18:49 |
| aveilleux | johnny77: Select the text, then hit ctrl+shift+c | 18:50 |
| johnny77 | aveilleux: ln: target `downloads' is not a directory | 18:50 |
| aveilleux | johnny77: Then you can just paste it into the IRC normally (ctrl+v) | 18:51 |
| aveilleux | johnny77: No, not that command. I want the output of the "pwd" command. | 18:51 |
| johnny77 | what pwd command? | 18:51 |
| aveilleux | johnny77: Just type pwd and hit enter. | 18:51 |
| johnny77 | oh, ok. | 18:51 |
| johnny77 | aveilleux: /home/jdmcclung/Dropbox -- Sorry not too familiar with ubuntu yet. | 18:52 |
| aveilleux | johnny77: can you pastebin the output of ls ~/ ? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/ | 18:53 |
| johnny77 | aveilleux: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/509565/ -- is that what you wanted? | 18:55 |
| aveilleux | johnny77: I... guess, but that's not the output I expected. Can you pastebin the output of cd ~ && ls && cd ~/Dropbox ? | 18:58 |
| johnny77 | aveilleux: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/509569/ | 19:00 |
| aveilleux | johnny77: There is no directory in your home dir called "downloads"... you can't link a file that doesn't exist | 19:02 |
| johnny77 | aveilleux: but my original command was "ln -s /home/jdmcclung/Downloads downloads?" my download directory is in jdmcclung | 19:06 |
| aveilleux | johnny77: Oh, I dind't see that? Weird. In any case, I think I've figured it out. You have to append directories with a forward-slash, ie. the command should be ln -s ~/Downloads/ downloads | 19:07 |
| aveilleux | johnny77: In place of doing /home/jdmcclung you can use the tilde (~) | 19:07 |
| johnny77 | aveilleux: is the command "ln -s <target> <name_of_link> ? | 19:19 |
| aveilleux | johnny77: That should be right, yes. I just tried it and it worked, so... | 19:20 |
| johnny77 | aveilleux: I noticed something. I get error "ls: cannot access download: No such file or directory" <-- notice it's download not "Downloads" as in the directory. For some reason it's giving the error on the file name. maybe because Ubuntu sees "download" as a understood directory. Trying new file name. | 19:23 |
| johnny77 | aveilleux: nope. It is still taking <name_of_file> and looking for a directory. | 19:25 |
| aveilleux | johnny: The command is ln -s , not ls | 19:25 |
| johnny77 | aveilleux: oops :) | 19:27 |
| johnny77 | aveilleux: worked. Sorry for the confusion. | 19:29 |
| aveilleux | no problwm | 19:29 |
