dmcglone | Hi guys | 01:00 |

Unit193 | Hey dmcglone | 01:00 |
dmcglone | hows that KDE install going? | 01:01 |
Unit193 | It works.... mostly... | 01:01 |
dmcglone | whats mostly? | 01:01 |
Unit193 | Some things I don't like as much as I used to | 01:01 |
Unit193 | Package manager... | 01:02 |
dmcglone | are you running it now? | 01:02 |
dmcglone | do you like the new taskbar? | 01:02 |
Unit193 | can be | 01:02 |
Unit193 | It's about the same I think... | 01:02 |
dmcglone | using them spacers are rediculous | 01:02 |
dmcglone | also re-arranging the icons and stuff if a major pain in the arse | 01:03 |
Unit193 | The program I used to use to configure grub I can't find... | 01:03 |
Unit193 | and I'm too lazy to config menu.lst :) | 01:04 |
dmcglone | what was the name of it? | 01:05 |
Unit193 | Yeah.... it was in the System Settings...\ | 01:05 |
dmcglone | do you recall the name of it? | 01:06 |
Unit193 | It just said "Grub" | 01:06 |
dmcglone | oh | 01:06 |
dmcglone | lol | 01:06 |
Unit193 | I'm sure it had an install name... been too long since I installed it... | 01:06 |
dmcglone | I know what you mean, let me check here real quick | 01:07 |
dmcglone | was it StatUp-Manager? | 01:08 |
Unit193 | I'm sure it was not that one... | 01:08 |
Unit193 | that's the only one I could find... | 01:08 |
dmcglone | are you running 10.10? | 01:09 |
Unit193 | Yep | 01:11 |
dmcglone | me too. I got the app I mentioned | 01:11 |
Unit193 | It also doesn't handle KVM switches as well as the other | 01:12 |
dmcglone | maybe you were looking for the login screen settings? | 01:12 |
Cheri703 | what doesn't handle kvm switches? | 01:12 |
Unit193 | Kubuntu... | 01:13 |
Unit193 | dmcglone: It had options to add bg pics to Grub change the order/name and some other stuff | 01:14 |
Unit193 | Cheri703: I hit scrool lock twice then 1 or 2 (for what comp I want) the other OS on the same computer handles the change better then Kubuntu | 01:16 |
Cheri703 | ah, mine has a physical button :) | 01:16 |
dmcglone | with KVM can the computers be on a network or do they need to be physically connected? | 01:17 |
Cheri703 | the one I have is physically connected | 01:18 |
Cheri703 | there may be networkable ones, but...I dunno, that's what vnc is for :) | 01:18 |
dmcglone | true | 01:18 |
Unit193 | Cheri703: Mine also has a physical button but it's under the desk :) | 01:19 |
dmcglone | Unit193: mine is under the desk, but it's called a "trigger" ;-) | 01:20 |
* Cheri703 hearts the button | 01:20 | |
Unit193 | Back back in a sec | 01:22 |
Unit193 | Back | 02:15 |
dmcglone | welcome back | 02:17 |
* Cheri703 is back too | 02:17 | |
dmcglone | welcome back | 02:20 |
Cheri703 | thanks :) | 02:20 |
Unit193 | Is there any kind of apt-get search? | 02:44 |
Cheri703 | synaptic? | 02:44 |
canthus13 | apt-cache search <keyword> | 02:46 |
Unit193 | canthus13: does that work for packages you don't have installed? | 02:48 |
canthus13 | Umm.. no. | 02:53 |
canthus13 | For that, use synaptic. | 02:54 |
Cheri703 | gui ftw! | 02:54 |
canthus13 | ...I don't think,, anyway. I've never tried apt-cache search for stuff I didn't have installed... | 02:54 |
canthus13 | if you're on command line, aptitude is a synaptics-style ncurses program. | 02:55 |
Unit193 | canthus13: both work! thanks! | 03:26 |
canthus13 | No prob. | 03:27 |
