[09:49] It might help if you install gnome-tweak-tool julez_ [09:50] i did, but i can't choose the theme there, too. i just tried it with another theme, "malys-unisex", which worked... [09:51] i just can choose the dust window theme, not the gtk+ theme [09:53] not sure I'm afraid julez_ [09:54] where did you get the theme from? [09:55] https://launchpad.net/dusttheme/0.5/0.5.0 [09:58] It doesn't appear to be compatible with gtk3 julez_ [10:00] :( okay, then i have to search another theme... thank you [10:02] it is in the package gnome-themes-ubuntu but again, only the window theme, not the gtk one [11:10] Hello. === sw0rdfish is now known as Robinux === jalcine_ is now known as Guest38311 === webjadmin_ is now known as Guest97056 === yofel_ is now known as yofel === Robinux is now known as sw0rdfish === genupulas is now known as raju === raju is now known as fi8frfate === fi8frfate is now known as genupulas === jalcine_ is now known as Guest12398 === Guest12398 is now known as JackyAlcine [17:40] I took out the hard drive from my 1005ha and installed ubuntu on it using my mac and usb-sata connector. After I installed it through my mac i put the drive back into the laptop and went to boot it. The power went on and the lights on the bottom light up. But the screen stayed black. There was no sound coming from it besides the fan spinning. I took it apart and rechecked all the connections, still nothing.

[20:36] hi all, I need to find the equivalent of some excel tools in libre office calc, i need Developer where I can use the Spin function [20:36] also need Evolver tool too [20:37] whats their ubuntu tools [20:37] dsenator, if nobody here knows see if libre office has an irc channel as well [20:37] after i started live CD i went through regular install steps and after it finished a message went told me that installing was done and i need to restart machine [20:38] philipballew, OH OK [20:38] okay. so boot back into your live cd and show m the output of sudo sfisk -l on like pastebin or something [20:38] of wait [20:38] sudo fdisk -l on like pastebin or something [20:39] ok [20:39] philipballew, how do i check into the libre office irc channel [20:39] * philipballew_ shouldnt eat and type [20:39] dsenator, they probably have a irc channel somewhere [20:40] #libreoffice? [20:42] dsenator, do that [20:45] If it's libreoffice it's probably on Freenode. [20:45] it is, i looked [20:45] Sidewinder1, thanks [20:45] :) [20:46] I am not quitting yet [20:49] dsenator, Just stick with it; I'm reasonably certain you'll be able to do what you wish. About the only areas that I'm aware of that can cause problems is some games and Autocad. [20:51] I still cant get the help needed, the libreoffice irc is not responding or maybe I did not find the correct one [20:52] dsenator, id wait a while. [20:52] you can also try a fourm or askubuntu [20:53] dsenator, It sometimes takes a little longer but you could also try: http://ubuntuforums.org/ [20:53] philipballew, You were quicker..
