=== LucidOne is now known as Guest54754 === MaverickOne is now known as gpc [08:13] s [08:15] I've never understood this. About 6 months ago I learned how to make launchers and set the image for the icon being used. What format should an image be for making an icon a little bigger or smaller for the icons being used? [08:15] I have Gimp but I am still learning. I just learned how to add transparency to the back ground of images [08:16] Of coarse there is no end to learning in life. [08:17] I found this little quote from a link but I don't understand it: [08:17] In the dialogue to resize the image is a chain link between the two entries. Click on it to "break" the chain, and now each dimension can be rescaled without affecting the other. [08:18] From here: [08:18] http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080227081025AAQb2OO [08:19] Wait a minute. I think I got it. [08:20] Wow, I didn't know this but there is a little chain like image between the right and left under image, scale image [08:20] Nice. Take care all [08:25] Well that didn't work. I mean although the image I wanted to make taller is taller. The icon is still the same size. It's so small. How do I make it bigger without having to change it by right clicking the launcher and choosing stretch icon. [08:26] I mean I want to make it so when I go to the image I am choosing as an icon so that it is the size I want by default [08:27] hello [08:29] ray_: you can make all your icons bigger [08:29] but it sounds like you only want 1 icon to be bigger? [08:33] yes === thirdNut is now known as thirdnutz [10:02] "/msg NickServ REGISTER password emailaddress" will this register my current nick?, I know replace password with the password I make up and use my email address. [10:03] I would think so. Am I right? [10:04] Does anyone know how to get rid of the IP Address after your username? [10:04] I'd really appreciate any help. [10:05] I'm using xIRC btw [10:05] sorry XChat IRC [10:06] ...for example: kidsodate@121.54.67.235 [10:07] and...david@173.243.23.43 [10:08] and myself [10:08] I will install and try Xchat [10:08] can you answer my question though? [10:08] sorry [10:08] I will try to help you [10:21] Help, how do I register a nick here? [10:21] It says my nick is already registered, but I never registered it [10:24] ray_: someone else most probably has registerd it then [10:30] Ubuntu IRC === ray_ is now known as r4y [10:55] howdy: is there a way to mount a tmpfs without being root? [11:01] If root adds an fstab entry to allow it. [11:01] none /dest/dir tmpfs size=10%,users 0 0 [11:02] See ''man mount'' on what the user and users options do [11:02] geirha: ok... so this must be planned ahead then :) and would a user be allowed to mount -rebind if alaredy mounted then? [11:03] -rebind? [11:04] well --bind :P [11:06] hi help me on samba share [11:07] on samba share copy is twice slower than paste operation [11:09] samba copy is slower [11:10] or is it some tweak needed on linux kernel in sysctl [11:13] geirha: thx :) --bind: only root can do that :) I guess symlinks can work ok :P [13:01] what is update-apt-xapi? [13:01] johnny77, a bastard program that indexes packages so that you can use quick search in synaptic [13:02] johnny77, sometimes it tends to use quite a lot of CPU [13:02] Artir: it was pulling about 50% of my CPU for a few minutes. [13:03] Artir: Please try and keep it family friendly in here buddy [13:03] Bodsda, sorry. Won't happen again. [13:03] appreciated [13:04] I just wanted to make sure it wasn't something I had to worry about. [13:04] johnny77, don't wory. It isn't. If it really bugs you, you can just end the process. [13:04] Artir: don't bother, just curious. Thank you. [16:07] I think I'm having problems with my mouse.
