| ubottu | Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 00:05 |
| ChristopherNG | Ive not really been using linux for 2 weeks because ive been gaming so much before university starts back but I was having withdrawl symptoms from linux. | 00:32 |
| ChristopherNG | So I came back to get my linux fix... | 00:32 |
| GridCube | :P | 00:33 |
| ChristopherNG | Anyone tried using Irssi in windows command line? | 00:34 |
| ChristopherNG | hehe | 00:34 |
| Unit193 | cygwin+irssi+screen | 00:35 |
| GridCube | ChristopherNG, yep, all the time, weeeell i do use xchat more usually, but yeah irssi on a cygwin is pretty cool, you look all hacker and all | 00:38 |
| Unit193 | ChristopherNG: But I don't understand why since there is something called PuTTY ;) | 00:39 |
| ChristopherNG | Heh so its all about the image eh? | 00:39 |
| ChristopherNG | Unit193: There is this even better thing called SSL from the terminal | 00:39 |
| ChristopherNG | The sad thing was I was using SSL for a long time and didnt know what I was doing was actually SSL because of all these programs like putty.. | 00:40 |
| Unit193 | Not exactly sure what you mean by that, but you can always use a telnet client | 00:40 |
| ChristopherNG | Unit193: I mean opening a terminal and typing "ssl yourusername@yourserver.com" | 00:40 |
| ChristopherNG | and then your password | 00:40 |
| Unit193 | Uhh... You mean SSH? | 00:41 |
| ChristopherNG | youve confused me now.. | 00:41 |
| ChristopherNG | Anyway, sad so my people use windows like a life support machine, I had enough after two weeks and thats just using it for gaming. | 00:42 |
| Unit193 | !ot | 00:42 |
| ubottu | #xubuntu is the Xubuntu support channel, #xubuntu-devel for discussion regarding development of Xubuntu, and #xubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 00:42 |
| ChristopherNG | Yeah lets talk about the developments that took place over the past fortnight... | 00:43 |
| ChristopherNG | Has Xubuntu finally added a "add monitor" button yet? | 00:43 |
| Unit193 | What? | 00:45 |
| TaylorOtwell | is it possible to setup a keyboard shortcut to open the main menu? | 02:34 |
| Unit193 | xfce4-popup-applicationsmenu is what you want to execute | 02:35 |
| TaylorOtwell | ah, ok. thanks! | 02:36 |
| Unit193 | Menu > Settings > Settings Manager> Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts | 02:36 |
| Unit193 | *Application Shortcuts | 02:36 |
| TaylorOtwell | cool. i have set up the shortcuts before but just wasn't sure what to execute to pop up the menu. | 02:36 |
| Unit193 | Alright! Anything else? | 02:36 |
| TaylorOtwell | not right now. thanks again! | 02:36 |
| Unit193 | Have a great day! | 02:37 |
| yesitisjustme | anyone use wine? | 03:38 |
| Unit193 | !crosspost | 03:39 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask the same question in multiple Ubuntu channels at the same time. Many helpers are in more than one channel and it's not fair to them or the other people seeking support. | 03:39 |
| lighta | what's the issue about wine ? yesitisjustme ? | 04:26 |
| Unit193 | Answered in another channel, then he asked here and yet another channel (That I'm in) | 04:34 |
| lighta | no I meant what he's question about it. ofc people use wine.. | 04:42 |
| Unit193 | "does msi extension work in wine?" | 04:43 |
| Unit193 | Crosspost after answer. Maybe he didn't like it? | 04:43 |
| Unit193 | Testing Bug #611869 being wrong (few years old) | 05:48 |

| random_ | hi, trying out xubuntu 11.4 | 08:25 |

| random_ | happy, very happy that there is choice | 08:26 |
| random_ | and kudos to xubuntu maintaners and developers | 08:26 |
| Unit193 | Well, I'm not really any of those, but glad you like it! | 08:27 |

| marc_smith | hello all. Is there any way to set time and date via GUI? I know how to do it via CLI, but I'm just wondering if there's any option for newcomers. I think it might be quite a huge of a problem for them | 15:08 |
| marc_smith | damn! I feel so embarrassed! there is a GUI tool | 15:11 |
| marc_smith | sorry for that | 15:11 |

| ZoLToR | Hi! Can someone help me? Is it possible to remove chromium and firefox from xubuntu? (Usin Google Chrome). When I deletin Chromium, xubuntu download and installing firefox. When I deleting firefox - chromium was downloaded and installed | 21:26 |
| Sysi | apt-get remove chromium-browser firefox | 21:27 |
| charlie-tca | Will it work if they are using Chrome ? | 21:28 |
| Sysi | it may want to install something else.. | 21:28 |
| Sysi | IDK what depends on some browser, xubuntu-desktop? | 21:28 |
| charlie-tca | Looks like it insists on either firefox or chromium? | 21:28 |
| ZoLToR | At that moment I have only chromium withot firefox. And when I run command "apt-get remove chromium-browser" - downloading of firefox package was begining | 21:29 |
| charlie-tca | What is Chrome? Isn't that google's OS? | 21:29 |
| Sysi | ZoLToR: that's why you also tell it to remove firefox | 21:30 |
| Sysi | ChromeOs is Chrome OS, Chrome browser is Chrome browser | 21:31 |
| ZoLToR | omg.. just run "apt-get remove chromium-browser firefox". Unknown browser "Epiphany" aws downloaded and installed x_x | 21:35 |
| charlie-tca | That is not xubuntu, then. Does Chrome OS insist on having a browser installed? | 21:35 |
| ZoLToR | apt-get can not leave xubuntu without browser??? o_O But I have Google Chrome! Why apt-get didn't see it? :( | 21:37 |
| charlie-tca | Apparently, Google Chrome will not allow you to not have a browser! | 21:38 |
| charlie-tca | Xubuntu doesn't care if you don't want a browser | 21:38 |
| Sysi | chrome is not from default repositories | 21:38 |
| ZoLToR | I'm using Xubuntu.. Not ChromeOS | 21:39 |
| Sysi | charlie-tca: that happens on regular ubuntu too | 21:39 |
| ZoLToR | 1104 | 21:39 |
| ZoLToR | 11.04 | 21:39 |
| Sysi | still wondering what depends on some webbrowser | 21:39 |
| charlie-tca | You are right. xubuntu-desktop requires it | 21:40 |
| charlie-tca | as do the rest of the -desktop packages | 21:40 |
| ZoLToR | =( | 21:40 |
| charlie-tca | as does xsane, bluefish, and a bunch of other stuff | 21:41 |
| charlie-tca | but xubuntu-desktop can be removed, it is just a meta-package needed when you upgrade to the next release | 21:41 |
| ZoLToR | And how I will be update without that package if it need for upgrade? | 21:44 |
| ZoLToR | 11.10 not far) | 21:44 |
| charlie-tca | You must add the -desktop package back to upgrade, which will also require the browser be added back | 21:51 |
| ZoLToR | Hmmm... Thanks for your advice, I will try it later... Now I want sleep) Good night everyone! | 21:54 |
