dmcgloneusing them spacers are rediculous01:02
dmcglonealso re-arranging the icons and stuff if a major pain in the arse01:03
Unit193The program I used to use to configure grub I can't find...01:03

Unit193I'm sure it had an install name... been too long since I installed it...01:06
dmcgloneI know what you mean, let me check here real quick01:07

Unit193It also doesn't handle KVM switches as well as the other01:12
dmcglonemaybe you were looking for the login screen settings?01:12
Cheri703what doesn't handle kvm switches?01:12
Unit193Kubuntu...01:13
Unit193dmcglone: It had options to add bg pics to Grub change the order/name and some other stuff01:14
Unit193Cheri703: 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 Kubuntu01:16
Cheri703ah, mine has a physical button :)01:16
dmcglonewith KVM can the computers be on a network or do they need to be physically connected?01:17
Cheri703the one I have is physically connected01:18
Cheri703there may be networkable ones, but...I dunno, that's what vnc is for :)01:18
dmcglonetrue01:18
Unit193Cheri703: Mine also has a physical button but it's under the desk :)01:19
dmcgloneUnit193: mine is under the desk, but it's called a "trigger" ;-)01:20

Unit193Is there any kind of apt-get search?02:44
Cheri703synaptic?02:44
canthus13apt-cache search <keyword>02:46
Unit193canthus13: does that work for packages you don't have installed?02:48
canthus13Umm.. no.02:53
canthus13For that, use synaptic.02:54
Cheri703gui 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
canthus13if you're on command line, aptitude is a synaptics-style ncurses program.02:55
Unit193canthus13: both work! thanks!03:26
canthus13No prob.03:27
