| MrAnthrope | gnome-look.org seems like it would have stuff to change the way gnome looks, right? | 02:28 |
| MrAnthrope | Not sure how to use these themes... | 02:34 |

| Ubun_i_tuny | So; anybody need any help with anything easy? :-) | 02:52 |
| Ubun_i_tuny | Just thought I'd offer since I thought the chances were high that newbies might be afraid to say anything. | 02:53 |
| MrAnthrope | I did but I figured it out. | 02:57 |
| MrAnthrope | Thanks :) | 02:57 |
| MrAnthrope | Wow there are a lot of cursor themes... | 03:31 |
| MrAnthrope | What is a GDM theme? | 03:32 |
| JoeMaverickSett | MrAnthrope: i think this explains it clearly; http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-gdm-gnome-display-manager-theme-in-ubuntu.html look at the top paragraph. :) | 03:35 |
| JoeMaverickSett | MrAnthrope: if you look at the screenshots, you will understand it more clearly. :) | 03:37 |
| MrAnthrope | My Login Window Preferences look nothing like the ones here. | 03:38 |
| MrAnthrope | I have no tabs lol. | 03:38 |
| MrAnthrope | does 10.04 not use GDM? | 03:39 |

| MrAnthrope | Why are all of these clocks analog? o.o http://gnome-look.org/index.php?xcontentmode=186 | 04:12 |
| MrAnthrope | And what is the difference between a screenlet and a desklet? | 04:16 |
| alex-a | Hello All. Anyone knows how proxy server can help increase connections speed, please? | 05:02 |
| alex-a | I mean, how do I connect to a proxy server? | 05:05 |
| Ubun_i_tuny | MrAnthrope --> desklets and screenlets pretty much serve the same purpose. the provide "desktop widgets" much like OS X's dashboard. these widgets are usually small and simple, single-purpose graphical tools. as you mentioned, weather forecasts. there are also calculators, rss readers, system performance graphs, media player integration tools, and all sorts of things. | 05:46 |
| Ubun_i_tuny | I just copied that from a thread I was looking at. He said it just as well as anything I could have come up with so why reinvent the wheel :-) ... In any case this is a great thread on everything you might not have even thought to ask about them ... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=703524 | 05:47 |
| MrAnthrope | thanks a ton :) | 05:47 |

| hakimsheriff | @bioterror does it show how to share an internet connection too? | 19:01 |
| bioterror | you need dnsmasquerade | 19:02 |

| bioterror | I never had need to create one | 19:03 |
| hakimsheriff | it asks me to put the local ip adresses. From where do I get that. | 19:05 |

| MrAnthrope | Hello. | 19:16 |
| MrAnthrope | Anyone awake? | 19:17 |
| bioterror | what's in your mind | 19:18 |
| bioterror | may we help you somehow? | 19:18 |
| MrAnthrope | I downloaded an icon theme pack and I'm pretty pleased with it except it has changed the ubuntu icon on the panel in the upper left hand corner (Applications menu). I've changed the icon using gconf-editor in apps, panel, objects, menu_bar_screen but it is not changing. | 19:18 |
| MrAnthrope | I'm using a .png file which is 24x24 | 19:19 |
| bioterror | I've got no idea about that kind of cosmetics | 19:19 |
| bioterror | sorry | 19:19 |
| bioterror | maybe someone else has | 19:19 |
| MrAnthrope | I'm sure I'm editing the right object because it says object_type menu-bar and menu_path is applications:/ | 19:19 |
| MrAnthrope | Hm. | 19:20 |
| MrAnthrope | Maybe the icon theme is over-writing it somehow. | 19:20 |
| MrAnthrope | I've just installed and the first thing I went for was tweaking the appearance settings heh. | 19:21 |
| MrAnthrope | I'd like some window themes but I can't seem to find any. | 19:22 |
| MrAnthrope | haha nix that. Guess I wasn't trying hard enough, there's a link right on the appearance preferences. | 19:23 |
| MrAnthrope | My tooltip backgrounds, selected items, and selection box are orange and I don't understand why. I even installed Gnome Color Chooser and they're STILL orange. http://goo.gl/I5NYb | 20:04 |
| aveilleux | MrAnthrope: Look under System > Preferences > Appearance > Customize... > Color | 20:05 |
| aveilleux | MrAnthrope: Oh, I know the problem. The base theme is still overriding your prefs. | 20:06 |
| aveilleux | MrAnthrope: Instead of customizing the base theme, choose another that has a similar color scheme (changing everything all at once), then customize the colors. | 20:06 |
| MrAnthrope | base theme... | 20:12 |
| MrAnthrope | in Appearance Preferences? | 20:12 |
| MrAnthrope | I thought I had created a custom one lol | 20:13 |
| MrAnthrope | at least, it says custom. | 20:13 |
| aveilleux | MrAnthrope:I mean whatever is the default. Light, or whatever. I don't know since I don't use it. | 20:15 |
| aveilleux | MrAnthrope: If you customize a theme already there, then certain settings are retained. But since it's not exactly like any of the preinstalled themes, it's marked "cutsom". | 20:15 |
| MrAnthrope | hmm. I clicked on another theme and it changed. I'm so confused lol. | 20:15 |
| aveilleux | MrAnthrope: Yes, that's how it works. | 20:17 |
| MrAnthrope | I mean it fixed the selected items and the tooltip backgrounds. But now EVERYTHING else is wrong. | 20:17 |
| MrAnthrope | ;( | 20:17 |
| aveilleux | MrAnthrope: Um, yes. That's what a theme -is-. | 20:18 |
| aveilleux | MrAnthrope: It's the entire appearance pallete. | 20:18 |
| MrAnthrope | I think I got it lol :) Thanks. | 20:26 |
| davidjr621 | Any recommended programs for someone coming from windows 7 to ubuntu? | 20:54 |
| bioterror | that question really doesnt make a sense | 20:55 |
| aveilleux | davidjr621: Programs for what? There are a lot of programs. | 20:58 |
| davidjr621 | Just anything | 20:58 |
| Mohan_chml | davidjr621, what you do with you windows machine? | 20:59 |
| davidjr621 | Like IRC clients, DVD burners, etc | 20:59 |
| Mohan_chml | your* | 20:59 |
| aveilleux | davidjr621: Your question has no contextual sense. | 20:59 |
| aveilleux | davidjr621: Just use the Software center and search for what you need. | 20:59 |
| Mohan_chml | davidjr621, you used Xchat for Windows or pidgin or irissi? | 20:59 |
| davidjr621 | I used DVD burners and Winrar a lot, are there replacements | 21:00 |
| davidjr621 | Mohan_chml: I used mIRC | 21:00 |
| aveilleux | davidjr621: Well, there's no winRAR replacement. No free one, anyway. | 21:00 |
| aveilleux | davidjr621: Archive Manager can open RAR archives if you install unrar | 21:00 |
| davidjr621 | Does 7zip work on ubuntu? | 21:00 |
| bioterror | does | 21:00 |
| aveilleux | davidjr621: Yes, but it's command-line only. | 21:00 |
| davidjr621 | Oh and I used Dropbox ALOT | 21:01 |
| aveilleux | davidjr621: Use Archive Manager and its plugins, it's a lot more integrated into Ubuntu | 21:01 |
| Cheri703 | aveilleux: there is a web site that will create 7zip commands for yo | 21:01 |
| aveilleux | davidjr621: Dropbox has an Ubuntu client. | 21:01 |
| Cheri703 | *you | 21:01 |
| Cheri703 | makes life easier | 21:01 |
| davidjr621 | Now how about Dvd burners? | 21:01 |
| bioterror | brasero | 21:01 |
| davidjr621 | DVDfab is what I used on windows | 21:01 |
| aveilleux | Cheri703: But that's not what is helpful. Archive Manager is a lot more powerful. | 21:02 |
| aveilleux | davidjr621: Like, DVD authoring? | 21:02 |
| Cheri703 | well, yeah. but 7zip has some good features | 21:02 |
| aveilleux | davidjr621: As in, DVDs that can be played on a DVD video player? | 21:02 |
| Cheri703 | and it helps me at least to be able to help use them | 21:02 |
| bioterror | davidjr621, I have only one good hint: forget windows and it's applications | 21:02 |
| davidjr621 | Photoshop replacement? | 21:03 |
| bioterror | :D | 21:03 |
| aveilleux | davidjr621: GIMP | 21:03 |
| bioterror | aveilleux, it's really not a replacement | 21:03 |
| aveilleux | bioterror: It's the closest we have. And it's really powerful. | 21:03 |
| bioterror | we cant discuss about GIMP and latest Photoshop in a same line | 21:04 |
| aveilleux | bioterror: I find GIMP a lot more powerful than Photoshop in most cases. | 21:04 |
| aveilleux | bioterror: All that's missing are layer styles, really. | 21:04 |
| davidjr621 | How about changing hues? | 21:04 |
| aveilleux | davidjr621: Uhh, yeah, GIMP can do that. | 21:04 |
| davidjr621 | I mainy use photoshop to change hues, for android themes | 21:04 |
| bioterror | aveilleux, and I open RAW file, I cannot adjust it like in Photoshop before it's in that window | 21:05 |
| aveilleux | davidjr621: I suggest you just Google search for "ubuntu <program> equivalent" | 21:05 |
| bioterror | if you know what I mean | 21:05 |
| aveilleux | bioterror: No, I don't know what you mean. You mean importing RAW files? | 21:05 |
| bioterror | when I open raw file in photoshop, I can make some tweakings right | 21:05 |
| aveilleux | bioterror: Because that's really only because Adobe has the money to license camera RAW codecs. | 21:05 |
| bioterror | GIMP just opens it and I cannot adjust curves and stuff like that before I see the "huge image window" | 21:06 |
| aveilleux | bioterror: I have no idea what you're talking about. | 21:06 |
| bioterror | I think windows users should try to find some opensource programs, install them | 21:07 |
| bioterror | try them and use them | 21:07 |
| bioterror | then move to linux | 21:07 |
| aveilleux | bioterror: Well, we all have our opinions. | 21:08 |
| yofel | erm, there is gimp-dcraw and gimp-ufraw for editing raw files | 21:08 |
| bioterror | it would make the moving a little easier | 21:08 |
| bioterror | well, most of them uses firefox | 21:09 |
| yofel | most of them? I know several people that like IE8 and are happy with using it (I actually like it's integration into the Win7 taksbar) | 21:10 |
| aveilleux | yofel: Well, that's their loss then. (I don't use Firefox.) | 21:11 |
| yofel | from the people I knot that don't use IE, it's about 50:50 between firefox and chrome | 21:12 |
| yofel | s/knot/know/ | 21:12 |
| aveilleux | yofel: I use Opera | 21:12 |
| bioterror | opera gets extensions! | 21:12 |
| bioterror | might get a proper adblocking | 21:12 |
| aveilleux | bioterror: I knwo! *squee* | 21:12 |
| yofel | right, correction: I know 1 persion that uses opera too | 21:12 |
| aveilleux | bioterror: It's... always had adblocking. | 21:12 |
| bioterror | aveilleux, content filter! ;D | 21:12 |
| aveilleux | bioterror: Proper adblocking. | 21:12 |
| bioterror | but operas mouse gestures are damn good | 21:13 |
| yofel | I have it installed here as fallback, but nothing more | 21:13 |
| kosaidpo | hello guys | 21:13 |
| aveilleux | bioterror: Exactly, that works in the same manner as ABP. Better, actually, since it can block literally any content at will. | 21:13 |
| * yofel uses firegestures in firefox | 21:13 | |
| aveilleux | yofel: Opera supports gestures natively :D | 21:13 |
| bioterror | except operas gestures doesnt suck | 21:14 |
| yofel | I know, but I'm so used to firegestures that I always get confused when I use the opera ones :P | 21:14 |
| kosaidpo | guys im on lubuntu and iwanna make my panel transparent is ithere any trick ( btw ive already played with that color palette) | 21:14 |
| bioterror | kosaidpo, what pills did you take today? panel preferences, appearance and solic color (with opacity= | 21:14 |
| bioterror | solid color | 21:15 |
| kosaidpo | bioterror: none ,tried that already | 21:15 |
| kosaidpo | bioterror: can you give me a solid color please | 21:15 |
| bioterror | my bar went transparent | 21:16 |
| bioterror | oh, black, just a moment | 21:16 |

| bioterror | stlsaint, nothing much | 21:16 |
| kosaidpo | bioterror: when i do that it goes all black | 21:17 |

| kosaidpo | bioterror: uhmm you got it ?? or no ? | 21:18 |
| * kosaidpo have it all black | 21:18 | |
| bioterror | it's not real transparency | 21:18 |
