jthan | \o/ | 01:55 |
jthan | I just upgraded to Natty... Terribly disappointed :-( | 01:55 |
rmg51 | yeah, I'm not feeling Unity :-/ | 01:56 |
jthan | Nope. | 01:56 |
jthan | And in general the whole thing is buggy.. | 01:57 |
jthan | After I resume from suspend things go missing until a reboot.. Just not happy with the performance. My boot time is near 2 minutes. | 01:57 |
rmg51 | on a clean install I lost wireless with network manager | 01:57 |
jthan | now without Googling I can't even figure out how to ditch Unity :-P | 01:58 |
rmg51 | easy | 01:58 |
jthan | Do I have to change my session? | 01:58 |
rmg51 | system | 01:58 |
rmg51 | admin | 01:59 |
rmg51 | login screen | 01:59 |
jthan | Ah. yea. | 01:59 |
rmg51 | at the bottom is a drop down box | 01:59 |
rmg51 | pick classic | 01:59 |
jthan | Is it any less buggy for you? | 02:00 |
rmg51 | depends on the computer | 02:00 |
rmg51 | this one is still on 10.10 | 02:00 |
rmg51 | just didn't get around to upgrading it yet | 02:01 |
rmg51 | Teddy's System76 laptop seems fine | 02:01 |
rmg51 | had to go back to rhythmbox | 02:02 |
rmg51 | banshee messed up :-( | 02:03 |
jthan | Oh boy. I gotta ehad out for now. I'm reconfiguring some stuff on my linode then I should be back full time ;-) | 02:04 |

JonathanD | Morning PA | 11:03 |
rmg51 | morning JonathanD | 11:11 |
JonathanD | howdy rmg51 | 11:12 |
rmg51 | o/ | 11:13 |
JonathanD | How goes? | 11:17 |
rmg51 | just reading the digital version of the morning Inquirer | 11:20 |
rmg51 | breakfast time :) | 11:29 |
ssweeny | lunch time :) | 11:30 |
rmg51 | let me know when it's nap time ;-) | 11:31 |
InHisName | Good morning all you early birds and luncheon fellows - JonathanD, rmg51, & ss | 13:52 |
InHisName | ssweeny instead of ss | 13:53 |
JonathanD | Hello InHisName | 14:05 |
InHisName | Whuts up this morn, JonathanD | 14:05 |
JonathanD | nothing much. | 14:26 |
JonathanD | Gonna do some more recabling today. | 14:27 |
InHisName | Ooooo sooo exciting, re-cabling. Cat-5 ? | 14:27 |
JonathanD | power. | 14:51 |
InHisName | It's still better than wearysome task that keeps on repeating and repeating | 14:54 |
InHisName | job searching | 14:54 |
* ChinnoDog yawns | 18:03 | |
* teddy-dbear hugs :-D | 18:13 | |
* InHisName notices it is now afternoon already. | 19:08 | |
JonathanD | indeed. | 19:17 |
JonathanD | InHisName: so it is. | 19:17 |
InHisName | so lets have a frenzied discussion of things ubuntu. | 19:20 |
knightzero | Ubuntu, Wine, and a particular e-book reader that requires Visual basic do not play well together. | 19:22 |
InHisName | Go tee-totaler and dump the e-book reader and keep ubuntu. | 19:24 |
knightzero | I would if it weren't required for school - and if the alternative wasn't a horrible web based HTML reader with zero search functionality. | 19:25 |
InHisName | Or if you are very inflexable, adopt VirtualBox and add an OS that supports VB for the e-reader. | 19:25 |
knightzero | That's my current workaround. I'd still love to make it work in Wine though. Its not Wine's fault at all, this program is just....eh....describable in words that violate the family-friendly nature of this channel. | 19:27 |
InHisName | Ok, moving on.... If I enable 'cube' in compiz in 10.04 what command spins and other actions on it ? | 19:31 |
knightzero | If you have the CompizConfig settings manager installed, you should be able to map it to whatever you want. | 19:32 |
InHisName | Yea, I got that. I seem to have only two desktops but not able to see cube yet. Must be more settings to fix. | 19:37 |
knightzero | The button mappings are under rotate cube>bindings, and you'll need to enable rotate cube and desktop cube | 19:38 |
teddy-dbear | flipping the cube is no fun with only 2 desktops :P | 19:40 |
InHisName | initiate = <ctrl><alt>Button1 so I tried ctrl-alt + all diff mouse buttons what is '1'? | 19:41 |
knightzero | Too true, teddy-dbear | 19:41 |
knightzero | button1=usually the left mouse button. | 19:41 |
InHisName | Where to increase count of desktops from 2 ? | 19:41 |
knightzero | hold all three and you can spin the cube | 19:42 |
teddy-dbear | default is crtl/alt/left or right arrows | 19:42 |
InHisName | That shifts to left desktop | 19:43 |
knightzero | From the desktops view on your gnome toolbar, you should be able to right click and select the number of desktops. | 19:43 |
InHisName | Is setting for # desktops in compizmgr ? | 19:43 |
teddy-dbear | bottom right corner | 19:44 |
teddy-dbear | lower panel | 19:44 |
InHisName | Ok I see it now | 19:45 |
teddy-dbear | you should have 2 squares showing | 19:45 |
InHisName | Ok setting changed to 4. Shows 4 upon review but still only 2 to move about in, yet. Do I need to 'reboot' or sumthin' ? | 19:46 |
knightzero | You should be able to change arrangement as well - if they are stacked as a square, the cube rotation doesn't work quite right. | 19:47 |
knightzero | Under preferences, set rows to 1 | 19:49 |
InHisName | Yea, they are 1 row 4 desktops. But only have two so far. | 19:51 |
InHisName | 4 cols x 1 row | 19:52 |
knightzero | That should update immediately. | 19:53 |
InHisName | reboot to see if that fixes anything ..... Two other things want a reboot anyway. | 20:14 |
InHisName | well reboot cleared that up. Got 4 desktops in one row. | 20:24 |
InHisName | Ok, now it rotates | 20:25 |
InHisName | Now you guys can resume the regularly scheduled discussions about all things ubuntu...... | 20:25 |
InHisName | kids home from school. Chore day. bb MUCH later | 20:28 |
