[00:07] there may be one more step [00:08] bobweaver: just reboot to ubuntu [00:08] Then in Ubuntu, run sudo update-grub, should then pick up your fedora install [00:11] cprofitt > did't worked [00:12] bobweaver: did you catch that ?

[03:48] maybe the *-server channel, but i think its a bit slow... hmmm [03:48] MonDop: what database program? [03:48] like hadoop or mongodb [03:49] oh no sorry, i would search for a irc channel or forums for those programs [03:49] it's ok [03:49] I found it in mongodb channel [03:49] but the people in there a little bit harsh for beginners I think [03:51] oh that tends to be the case in alot of channels [03:51] yeah, I think so, that's why I want to find a channel for beginners [03:52] MonDop: is there nothing on the web that you cant use to help [03:52] well, there is, but sometimes I got stuck and don't find the answer either [03:53] I hope there is a channel like mongodb-beginners or hadoop-beginners [03:54] i doubt that there is [03:54] personally, I like this kind of channel, where everyone nice and speak politely [03:54] MonDop: yea we try :D [03:54] how about mysql or something more mainstream? at least to learn on? [03:56] hmm, my company like to use mongoDB more, so I need to learn it quick [03:56] and mysql is more in schema like [03:56] while mongoDB is NoSQL type database, which is schemaless [03:57] im just tyring to tyink of something you can learn about in a buntu channel, to get started [03:57] o ic [03:57] MonDop: google :D [03:57] MonDop: http://komunitasweb.com/2010/06/beginner-step-into-mongodb/ [03:58] stlsaint: are you Indonesian?

I want to pin minecraft to my unity bar. it is a java jar file which I typically start from terminal with some options... how would I go about doing this? [15:32] nlsthzn: very good question [15:32] I thought that [15:32] holstein, typically good questions never have good answers :p [15:32] does http://askubuntu.com/questions/35488/list-of-custom-launchers-quicklists-for-unity do it? [15:32] nlsthzn: hehe [15:35] can you not just pin it once it's running? [15:36] thought you could do that with unity [15:36] hobgoblin: it might not show up there [15:36] its a terminal app [15:36] something that is started from the CLI rather [15:36] holstein, not neceserally... [15:36] oh - there you are - 2 things I knwo little about - unity AND games [15:36] I can also run it via nautilus... if I select run with java [15:36] but with terminal I can tweak it a bit [15:37] o/ bodhi_zazen [15:37] yeah, that link looks like it'll do the trick, unless that has been broken in the latest unity :/ [15:37] holstein, a quick scan of the ask ubuntu says no... but I think the solution is there somewhere [15:37] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1741364 [15:37] might help you nlsthzn [15:37] * nlsthzn has to take the wife for a bite to eat... [15:37] thanks hobgoblin [15:38] will check it out later... thanks for the assistance [15:38] welcome [15:38] thanks hobgoblin [15:38] thanks holstein [15:38] I'll take an ether takeaway cookie [15:38] silyl tab [15:38] silly even [15:39] hobgoblin, join in on ubudogs maincraft server and I will make you one :) [15:39] ewwww - that's a game :( [15:39] :p [15:39] :) [15:39] hey guy I have a question [15:39] so say I working away on a browser right. and I forgot that a konsole is open and I want to use notify-send "' echo shut me down Bob " [15:40] on a 20minute timer [15:41] or use cmatrix after the 20 min [15:45] I would answer if I knew bobweaver - hang about if there's someone who does theyll answer [15:47] bobweaver: what are you trying to accomplish? a reminder that the browser has been open? [15:47] holstein: no that the terminal or konsole is open and that nothing has been used on it for 20 min [15:48] have it notify-send `"echo shut me down bob "` [15:50] notify-send = libnotify-bin if you did not know [15:52] so say I was working away on gimp and I forgot that the konsole was open after 20 min notify-send would pop up saying shut me down bob [15:52] only for konsole [15:52] I can not figure out how to set the var for konsole [15:53] if $konsole sleep 20m [15:54] case if $konsole sleep 20m notify-send echo "shut me down bob" [15:55] I know that that is not right at all but I hope that it cleared some stuff up :>) [15:55] I was wonder 1st if pid is always the same if so maybe I could use that ? [15:56] or maybe instead of notify send cmatrix starts [15:57] i dont think it matters how you send [15:57] i think its a matter of getting it to send, right? [15:57] yup [15:57] AFAIK, pid's are not static [15:57] maybe you can reserve one [15:57] holstein: thatks [15:58] maybe [15:58] I was likeing the cmatrix idea more and more [15:58] like a screen saver for the konsole :>) [16:00] maybe something in .bashrc [16:01] I guess it boils down to this I do not know how to make a command happen if something has not been done [16:01] right, you'll need something running in the background [16:01] Yes holstein that is hammers and nails [16:01] i personally think its more of a waste of resources than leaving konsole running probably [16:02] sure [16:02] notify-send would be great for that [16:02] may be with cowthink :>) [16:02] mayby * [16:02] arghhh [16:02] maybe* [16:02] well, what im suggesting is, whatever you make that keeps track of the terimal activity, is more of a resource hog than the terminal [16:03] neither of which would be on my radar as something that needs attention, resource-wise [16:03] ahh [16:03] I see [16:03] but, im sure you *can* do it [16:04] I know that it is bad to do this but sometimes I forget that the root konsle is open [16:04] * bobweaver ducks [16:04] * hobgoblin sees bobweaver ducking ... ;) [16:04] i still cant see where that matters [16:04] lol [16:05] security [16:05] if its local, and no one can get to your machine [16:05] or if its over SSH [16:05] at that point if root konsole is oipen and I forget about it :>) [16:05] i mean, if you are away from the machine, you'll get the popup, and you're gone [16:05] its still open... so on.. [16:05] sure [16:06] could use a var to exit also [16:06] that might be best right there [16:06] spoofing ssh is not that hard [16:06] the existing SSH tunnel? [16:07] havent heard of redirecting an ssh session... [16:07] but, i have a strict 'do what makes you feel safe' policy when it comes to security [16:07] that is good policy [16:07] and again, you *can* do this... its just a matter of how [16:08] have you thought about using sudo -i then the system timeout should come into force [16:08] hobgoblin: I did not know that [16:08] yeah, i was about to say, lets take konsole out of the equation [16:08] * hobgoblin will check it [16:09] sudo -i kills after so long ? also doed sudo -s or sudo su ? [16:09] does * [16:09] never use them here [16:09] ok [16:09] rarely bother with sudo -i tbf [16:09] I'll see what it says in 20 minutes [16:10] :>) [16:10] I mean 19 ;) [16:11] it is not a hug deal I was just studing (for fun) notify-send cowthink and figlet [16:11] thought that it could be used in that kinda way [16:13] * bobweaver need to study more about if fi and #! <- I think that that says last command or print last command [16:13] of to the bashmobile [16:13] batman [16:13] :>) [16:15] :) [16:16] hobgoblin: like then name from the frank zappa song ?
