| benonsoftware | Question: How do I make a C# program in Ubuntu? | 09:09 |
| coalwater | i think there's mono... | 09:09 |
| benonsoftware | coalwater: Ahhh. Mono doesn't work for me | 09:10 |
| coalwater | well, i never used it, i just read about it | 09:10 |
| coalwater | http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page | 09:11 |
| coalwater | i dont know if there's a package for ubuntu | 09:11 |

| kristian-aalborg | hi all | 13:55 |
| kristian-aalborg | I want to run a few X desktops... one with a terminal, one with ncmpc and one with vlc... what's the proper approach? | 13:56 |
| holstein | kristian-aalborg: what are you doing? | 14:00 |
| holstein | seems like you might not need x depending on what you need vlc for | 14:01 |
| holstein | theres a commandline vlc - cvlc... you could just run what you want in screen, and connect back to it whenever | 14:01 |
| kristian-aalborg | holstein, media center... my greatest hack so far, I hope | 14:04 |
| kristian-aalborg | I need X for the movies... I also think I can get a slightly less aliased term/ncmpc | 14:05 |
| kristian-aalborg | but the green Terminus will look killer on the TV :) | 14:05 |
| holstein | screen is the trick though... you set up ssh there, and connect in from whatever machine you want | 14:06 |
| holstein | get whatever playing in ncmpc inside screen, and ssh to the box from anywhere and reconnect | 14:06 |
| kristian-aalborg | screen is awesome | 14:09 |
| kristian-aalborg | and yes, the functionality I want can be done by screen | 14:09 |
| kristian-aalborg | ... but the "X" is the problem so far | 14:09 |
| holstein | if it has to be in the GUI, i would just use the workspaces | 14:09 |
| kristian-aalborg | of what WM? | 14:09 |
| kristian-aalborg | also, I don't want to use mouse | 14:09 |
| holstein | whatever | 14:10 |
| kristian-aalborg | sounds like a new WM, is it coded by hipsters? :P | 14:10 |
| holstein | its going to be challenging to use any of the major WM's without a mouse | 14:10 |
| kristian-aalborg | matchbox is cool | 14:10 |
| holstein | i use synergy with my netbook | 14:11 |
| kristian-aalborg | http://linux.dsplabs.com.au/gnu-screen-screenrc-configuration-file-p13/ | 14:26 |
| kristian-aalborg | yummy | 14:26 |
| kristian-aalborg | openbox will do what I want | 15:21 |
| samsul | Hello everybody uot there.... | 15:51 |
| samsul | is there anyone here? | 15:51 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | !ask | samsul | 15:53 |
| ubot2 | samsul: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 15:53 |
| samsul | okay, here is the question.. is Ubuntu can be bootabel from extend partition? | 16:00 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | samsul, extended partition? | 16:03 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | can you elaborate it? sorry for being late | 16:03 |
| samsul | yeah, the primary partition was full (4 partition) | 16:07 |
| Abhijit | samsul, yes it is. | 16:07 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | samsul, you can install an operating system in the primary partition of a hard disk. if you have another HDD, you can do in its primary partition. but not in logical partitions I believe | 16:08 |
| samsul | or, i should install Ubuntu without swap partition? | 16:08 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | swap is like a virtual RAM samsul | 16:09 |
| samsul | Do you mean i can not install an operating system in logical partition... | 16:11 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | samsul, all your primary partitions are used by other OS? | 16:11 |
| samsul | and we can not run Linux system without swap? | 16:11 |
| samsul | yes, | 16:11 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/forum/installation/Partitioning according to that you can | 16:12 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | samsul, please take a look and say whether it clarifies your query | 16:13 |
| samsul | okay, i'll check it. Thanks IAmNotThatGuy.. | 16:14 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | (: | 16:14 |
| coalwater | who said linux needed swap | 16:16 |
| coalwater | as long as u have enough ram its fin | 16:16 |
| coalwater | fine | 16:16 |
| coalwater | IAmNotThatGuy, you could try swapoff on terminal :D lol | 16:17 |
| coalwater | anyway, im going home :D see u guys later | 16:17 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | coalwater, I never mentioned that he needs a swap | 16:17 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | :P | 16:17 |
| coalwater | o ok :D | 16:17 |
| coalwater | lol | 16:17 |
| coalwater | anyway :D im free :D | 16:18 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | coalwater, dont sleep :P | 16:18 |
| samsul | i said | 16:18 |
| samsul | i was asking... | 16:18 |
| coalwater | why not IAmNotThatGuy | 16:18 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | samsul, /ignore coalwater :D | 16:19 |
| coalwater | lol | 16:19 |
| samsul | :D | 16:19 |
| yuler | After a delay, my system is setup to screen lock, then power off the monitor. Upon reactivating, sometimes the screen is readable for a few seconds, then the screen lock dialogue box activates. How do I fix it? | 17:33 |
| samsul | yuler : may be you sould deactive lock screen.. | 18:15 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | yuler, whats your OS version? | 18:16 |
| holstein | yuler: i disable screen lock | 18:24 |
| yuler | Ubuntu 10.10 (with updates). I'd like to keep both screen lock and monitor power off. | 18:26 |
| holstein | yuler: so, the problem is the little splash of the screen when you return? | 18:30 |
| holstein | i would probably stick with the LTS for things like that... but i have to say, im not sure if 10.04 does that or not | 18:31 |
| holstein | i suppose you should try to isolate the graphics driver | 18:32 |
| holstein | maybe see if you see the same behavior using the VESA driver | 18:33 |
| yuler | I'm using the latest proprietary Nvidia driver for the 6200 vidcard | 18:38 |
| holstein | yuler: have you witnessed the behavior with the vesa driver? | 18:51 |
| yuler | No, because I don't know how to make VESA drivers active in Ubuntu. | 18:53 |
| holstein | yuler: i would probably use a live CD, and use safe graphics mode | 18:53 |
| yuler | That sounds easy enough. | 18:54 |
| yuler | I'll check back when I've tested that. | 18:55 |
| holstein | otherwise, you'll be dealing with a proprietary driver bug | 18:55 |
| holstein | that'll be challenging to deal with... | 18:55 |
| yuler | Thanks. Will do. | 18:56 |
| tester | hi there I delete ubiquity because it skiped the username and password part | 18:57 |
| tester | is there a way to re-install | 18:57 |
| holstein | tester: however you feel comfortable dealing with packages should be fine... synaptic or the software center or sudo apt-get install ubiquity | 18:58 |
| tester | thanks | 19:12 |
| === tester is now known as bobweaver | ||
| bobweaver | it still keeps on not letting me change username and password | 19:52 |
| philipballew | is kde or gnome more powerful? | 19:52 |
| bobweaver | ok it still wont let me enter username and password | 19:53 |
| AndrewMC | philipballew: KDE will use more resources then GNOME will, I personally prefer GNOME | 19:58 |
| philipballew | AndrewMC, haha, my comp has 1 gig of ram. i might try xfce, or something | 19:59 |
