TiktalikHow do you use wifi in xubuntu02:09
Rena-I see an icon in the upper right of the panel with arrows pointing up and down, and clicking it lists available wireless networks02:10
Rena-if that doesn't work you'll probably need to install some kind of driver and I can't really help with that, sorry02:11

RenaKunisakihey, I've just installed 10.10 and the terminal app doesn't seem to be executing my ~/.bashrc... any ideas?03:47
gr8m8RenaKunisaki:  have you done an update since installing?03:50
RenaKunisakiyes03:51
gr8m8do you have a .bash_profile?03:51
RenaKunisakiapparently not03:51
RenaKunisakilooks like I didn't have one before either03:52
gr8m8see if there is one in /etc/skel03:52
RenaKunisakior would that be somewhere besides home >.>03:52
gr8m8could be in /etc03:52
gr8m8or in .profile03:53
RenaKunisakiyeah I see .profile here03:54
RenaKunisakithat's just a set of commands executed by each shell?03:54
gr8m8a basic .bash_profile just has the line   . $HOME/.bashrc03:55
gr8m8I've no idea what's in .profile I don't have it here03:55
RenaKunisakihm actually something else is funny. even manually doing ". ~/.bashrc" nothing has happened. still the usual old prompt etc.03:56
RenaKunisakihold on, I'm an idiot. let's try copying it to the right place.03:57
RenaKunisakithere we go. dur.03:57
gr8m8heh :)03:58
RenaKunisakifigures, I thought of that so I did "ls" to see if I'd copied to the current directory instead and it didn't show up, so I thought I must have done it right03:59
RenaKunisakiof course it doesn't show in "ls" without -a >.>03:59
RenaKunisakime so smrt.03:59
gr8m8that always catches me out...04:00
RenaKunisakiI just wish programs didn't pollute $HOME with their .foo instead of .config/myapp/foo, then I could just alias ls to ls -a and be done with it.04:01
