sebastian | hi everyone, can somebody help me please? | 04:55 |
bioterror | hahaha | 05:15 |
bioterror | hard to idle for a while | 05:15 |
sugardrunk | :) | 06:02 |
Ascavasaion | HOw do I share a directory for a windows machine toa ccess via the network? | 11:08 |
bioterror | sudo apt-get install samba | 11:12 |
bioterror | and edit /etc/samba/smb.conf ;) | 11:12 |
Ascavasaion | bioterror, Oh, no right click share? Aaaaw. hehe | 11:14 |
bioterror | nope | 11:14 |
bioterror | I tell you a secret | 11:15 |
bioterror | you can use ssh to access files ;) | 11:15 |
Ascavasaion | um, yes? | 11:15 |
Ascavasaion | HAHA! | 11:15 |
Ascavasaion | I know :) | 11:15 |
bioterror | if you have another *nix computer in your network | 11:15 |
Ascavasaion | But this is aWindows 7 machine. | 11:15 |
bioterror | but yeah, I use samba too as I watch movies with a networked media tank | 11:15 |
Ascavasaion | One look at smb.conf and I think itis time to go back to Windows... sheesh | 11:17 |
Ascavasaion | WOW, poor support for Windows file sharing hey? I wonder why Lubuntu does not have some decent networking tools? | 11:20 |
MrChrisDruif | Ascavasaion: What are you talking about? | 11:22 |
MrChrisDruif | Are you talking about samba? | 11:22 |
Ascavasaion | MrChrisDruif, I was hoping to share a directory on my Lununtu machine so that a Windows 7 machine can upload stuff into it... I took one look at smb.conf and realised that it is way out of my league. | 11:23 |
Ascavasaion | Yes, Samba. | 11:23 |
MrChrisDruif | Well...samba is also on normal Ubuntu ;) | 11:23 |
MrChrisDruif | So it wouldn't get any better there.. | 11:24 |
Ascavasaion | MrChrisDruif, I know... hehehe | 11:24 |
MrChrisDruif | And samba is the only tool for windows file-sharing in linux... | 11:24 |
Ascavasaion | MrChrisDruif, Just thoght there would be a nice little application to share directories, even have it built into the file manager, but I se nothing. | 11:24 |
MrChrisDruif | Dropbox? | 11:24 |
Ascavasaion | E: Couldn't find package dropbox | 11:26 |
* Ascavasaion sighs | 11:26 | |
MrChrisDruif | 2GB free, cross-platform...free upgrading to 8GB | 11:26 |
Ascavasaion | I wonder why every single thing in Linux is such a mission. | 11:26 |
MrChrisDruif | Dropbox isn't in the repos ofc :P | 11:26 |
MrChrisDruif | Just go to dropbox.com and download the .deb | 11:26 |
Ascavasaion | Of course it is not... why would Linux guys ever want to make it possible to network with Windows machines... Only the fact that 90% of the other computers it will ever link with are Windows machines heehhe | 11:27 |
MrChrisDruif | There is some manually/scripting involved because it's "designed" to work with nautilus... | 11:27 |
MrChrisDruif | Ascavasaion: You don't go to websites? ;) | 11:27 |
Ascavasaion | Aaah man. | 11:27 |
MrChrisDruif | A lot of websites run on Linux afaik | 11:28 |
Ascavasaion | MrChrisDruif, hehe You know what I meant... direct file sharing beween computers ona network hhe | 11:28 |
MrChrisDruif | xD | 11:28 |
MrChrisDruif | On a network....don't you control all the machines on your network? ;) | 11:28 |
MrChrisDruif | You must mean business network or something :D | 11:29 |
Ascavasaion | MrChrisDruif, I do, but if it is such a mission to connect two of them, then I maya s well swap hard disks, copy the stuff and pop them back into their machines. | 11:29 |
MrChrisDruif | I meant that you could install Linux on all your machines ;) | 11:29 |
Ascavasaion | The one machine is not my machine. The Windows one that is. | 11:30 |
MrChrisDruif | xD | 11:30 |
Ascavasaion | Druif = one grape in Afrikaans... a language in South Africa :) | 11:32 |
Ascavasaion | Druif = one grape in Afrikaans... a language in South Africa :) | 11:33 |
Ascavasaion | but I see you are Dutch, so you would know that hehe | 11:33 |
MrChrisDruif | Druif is indeed grape in English....how every it's is indeed also Dutch and not just African :P | 11:34 |
Ascavasaion | As I aid above. | 11:35 |
Ascavasaion | aid=said | 11:35 |
Ascavasaion | hehe | 11:36 |
MrChrisDruif | :D | 11:36 |
Ascavasaion | Dropbox is a flippen remote thing... argh! | 11:40 |
MrChrisDruif | Ascavasaion: You could try it this (http://www.simplehelp.net/2007/05/19/how-to-share-files-and-folders-in-ubuntu/) works on lubuntu | 11:43 |
Ascavasaion | I wonder. | 11:43 |
MrChrisDruif | (I've got neither Lubuntu installed nor Windows accessible atm) | 11:43 |
MrChrisDruif | It uses an older version of Ubuntu as you can see, but should probably be working almost the same in Lubuntu....at least; that is what I hope... | 11:46 |
Ascavasaion | Nop, no right click share in Lubuntu. | 11:48 |
Ascavasaion | I give up, seriously... Maybe another day when I have patience for this junk. | 11:48 |
MrChrisDruif | Maybe another day will someone be here who knows about this :) | 11:51 |
Ascavasaion | MrChrisDruif, What is there to know? Ubuntu has crap support for the largest operating system in the known galaxy :) | 11:54 |
MrChrisDruif1 | Ascavasaion: Linux has crap support for it...but there are multiple versions of samba, because Windows changed things here and there....so some version works better with XP than Vista etc... | 11:58 |
MrChrisDruif1 | And in what way is "it" the largest OS? ;) | 11:58 |

D33R | Hi everybody | 13:14 |
bioterror | Ascavasaion, hey | 13:29 |
bioterror | Ascavasaion, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/565368/ add that kind of line end of your smb.conf | 13:32 |
bioterror | remember to change workgroup and you're good to go ;) | 13:34 |
strycore | hi | 13:52 |
D33R | flash 10.2 crash on chrome | 13:53 |
D33R | :( | 13:53 |
D33R | nice update | 13:54 |
strycore | I noticed something weird ... the first pic I see when going to the lubuntu website is a girl holding a XO Laptop, and yet I can't seem to find a clear tutorial on installing lubuntu on a OLPC XO Laptop... | 13:54 |
=== peregrinator_six is now known as GTK3 | ||
=== GTK3 is now known as peregrinator_six | ||
jmarsden | strycore: If you have an XO and can write us such a tutorial, that would be great :) | 16:22 |
bioterror | haha | 16:22 |
bioterror | thats just mediasexy! | 16:22 |
strycore | jmarsden, I'll give it a try some day | 16:26 |
jmarsden | strycore: Thanks! | 16:26 |
strycore | but if I get lubuntu on the XO i'd rather make images directly writtable to a SD card, making a tutorial useless (much like DebXO does for Debian) | 16:28 |
endless | hello all | 16:56 |
bioterror | hi | 16:56 |
stlsaint | endless: | 17:11 |
stlsaint | yo | 17:11 |
stlsaint | bioterror: so whats going on here?? | 17:11 |
bioterror | atm nothing i guess | 17:11 |
T44 | hm, i am using xfce4-notifyd on lubuntu, and its working perfectly - except that for some reason the notifications dont disappear again | 18:59 |
T44 | but if i send a test message with notify-send it works fine | 19:00 |
T44 | its weird | 19:00 |
T44 | any ideas? | 19:00 |
T44 | (on xfce systems it works) | 19:00 |
T44 | i prefer xfce4-notifyd to notification-daemon or notify-osd (or whatever the gnome one was called) | 19:01 |
bioterror | okay | 19:10 |
