[18:19] <DonkeyHotei> akk: how do i convert a color image to grayscale?
[18:21] <akk> (why me specifically?) Easiest way is probably Image->Mode->greyscale
[18:21] <akk> though you can also use the hue-saturation dialog or lots of other methods
[18:21] <DonkeyHotei> thanx, didn't see that
[18:22] <DonkeyHotei> is there an integrated SANE frontend?
[18:23] <akk> There's the xsane plug-in -- not sure if that's what you're asking. It's what I use for scanning.
[18:24] <DonkeyHotei> which menu is that in?
[18:27] <DonkeyHotei> nvm, found it
[19:15] <scientes> greg-g, wow! i'm amazed that even worked with my sans font
[19:28] <greg-g> scientes: searching for ascii bouquet worked :)
[19:28]  * greg-g didn't make that

[22:31] <jyo> jtatum: http://shallowsky.com/blog/linux/ubuntu-default-browser.html
[22:31] <darthrobot> Title: [Setting the default browser when update-alternatives fails (Shallow Thoughts)]
[22:31] <jyo> i.e. akk actually knows update-alternatives syntax.
[22:33] <akk> I actually don't, had to muddle it out and be helped by pleia2 and maco :)
[22:34] <akk> and the syntax didn't seem to work anyway, as it turned out.
[23:01] <jtatum> we were trying to list all the alternatives last night
[23:01] <jtatum> i poked at that dumb command for a while before giving up and ls -l /etc/alternatives
[23:02] <jtatum> haha, awesome. you touch them directly too :)
[23:02] <akk> Yeah, that worked a lot better than the command.
[23:03] <jtatum> get-selections, eh? i was trying variations on --list —all
[23:03] <akk> It took me a long time to figure out --get-selections was what I needed.
[23:04] <akk> The man page is ... poor (choosing a more polite word than my first inclination).
[23:04] <jtatum> What a table-flippingly bad command
[23:04] <jtatum> the most complicated thing i tried to do with it before was change editor. i guess it was okay at that.
