chipcashWhen I boot to grub, it sometimes goes to Ubuntu automaticly02:26
chipcashI have a dual install02:26
stlsaint_chipcash: does grub show your other OS?02:27
stlsaint_chipcash: ??02:28
chipcashsorry02:28
stlsaint_chipcash: does grub show your other OS?02:28
chipcashI was reading from a do and don't list02:29
chipcashyes02:29
chipcashit is at the bottom02:29
stlsaint_not really a repair than02:29
stlsaint_tell grub to wait longer before booting so you have time to see it and choose02:29
chipcashWhen I first started using , it would go to Ubuntu in a few seconds02:29
chipcashOIC I can set the time?02:30
Unit193/etc/default/grub  has the grub config.02:30
chipcashHow can I tell GRUB?02:30
chipcashOK02:31
chipcashI'm just getting the hang of this chat02:31
Unit193You'll have to also run update-grub after editing that file.02:31
chipcashThese are utilities in the Ubuntu OS?02:32
wildmanne39Na3iL, here is a link scroll dwon til you see your card the 4727 and do what it says https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BroadcomSTA%28Wireless%2902:32
stlsaint_https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Configuring_GRUB_202:32
chipcashI just read at the top...How to ask smart questions02:32
stlsaint_alright im afk02:32
stlsaint_more like away from this channel02:33
wildmanne39I just recently update that wiki so I know it is right, if you have installed any other drivers or blacklisted any then there will be more work that needs to be done02:33
chipcashIt said don't ask to ask a question. I did the classic dumb thing. LOL02:33
chipcashThankyou02:33
wildmanne39Na3iL, did you get my message?02:34
chipcashFrom someone who is totally new to Linux... Are the other OS's as good as Ubuntu?02:35
chipcashLike Mint and Fedora and Redhat etc02:36
chipcashI used to be pretty good with chat02:38
chipcashBack in the TalkCity days02:38
chipcashI just watched a 20/20 special about chat rooms02:39
chipcashThis room must be full of begginers...noone can answer anything. lol02:40
chipcashthanks atlsaint02:41
chipcashIs there a website building app for Ubuntu?02:44
chipcashwow 72 updates02:45
krytarikchipcash, as for the other Linux distros, just try them yourself with a LiveCD/USB; as for website editor, you could try Bluefish.02:46
chipcashThankyou02:46
krytarikYou're welcome. :)02:47
chipcashI use filezilla for uploading FTP02:47
krytarikAnd?02:47
chipcashWill it work in Ubuntu?02:47
krytarikYup, it's even in the official repos, i.e. easily installable. ;)02:48
chipcashcool02:48
krytarik:)02:49
chipcashFileZilla sounds like a Mozzilla thingy02:49
krytarikYeah, kinda, indeed. :)02:49
chipcashI used to use Fetch02:49
chipcashwith my Mac02:49
krytarikYou would think it's a Firefox add-on. :P02:49
chipcashI currently do my web editing in Front Page02:50
chipcashIs BlueFish simaller02:51
chipcashspellers the feller02:51
chipcashlol02:51
chipcashMy typing/spelling stinks02:52
krytarikSimilar, you mean? I'd say, it's better than FrontPage - didn't see the latter for a while now though. ;)02:52
chipcashBlueFish...hrrrmmm02:53
krytarikWell, it's the same for most of us too - since the typos are send in real-time, no editing. :P02:53
chipcashIs everyone in private?02:54
krytarikPrivate?02:54
chipcashno one else is typing02:54
chipcashMost chats have private stuff going on02:54
chipcashbbl02:55
krytarikWell, this channel is usually very silent, #ubuntu is way more active, but because of that, it's also way more confusing. ;)02:55
krytarikYeah, of course, you can also chat with someone in private - but I think that's rather rare in these kind of lower traffic chat rooms.02:57
chipcashwow Bluefish is coplex03:06
chipcashcomplex03:06
chipcashYeah? I see a buch of names on the right03:06
chipcashMust be AWK03:07
krytarikYeah, quite, I've seen it myself for the first time in the last days.03:07

JoseeAntonioREven in #ubuntu-offtopic you will not get support for an EOL version.17:59
JoseeAntonioRHerakles: Do you have a support question for a version which has *not* reached the End of Life?18:01
HeraklesYou people are the living soul of Ubuntu right ?18:03
JoseeAntonioRHerakles: If you don't have a support question for a version which has *not* reached the EOL, please leave. Otherwise, you will be kicked from the channel. This is your last warning.18:03

JoseeAntonioRmatt_symes: You can use /msg chanserv access #ubuntu-beginners list to check that.18:24
matt_symesthanks for the heads up JoseeAntonioR. just wanted to check the ops out for future reference in case i need to find one for this channel18:25
synaptixmost of those ops are barely on lol18:26
elfy:)18:27
Unit193Only one of them is still in the access list, but may want to join #ubuntu-beginners-team for general chat. :)18:27
matt_symesas JoseeAntonioR pointed out, /msg chanserv access #ubuntu-beginners list gives the more up to date list i think18:27
synaptixOr even #ubuntu-offtopic ^^18:28
elfygood luck getting either of them :p18:28
elfyespecially that Unit19318:28
matt_symesho many channels does ubuntu have O_O18:28

elfyloads of people in for help today is ther JoseeAntonioR18:29
synaptixThat was a valid question, as I am curious too...how many channels DOES ubuntu have (including Ubuntu derivatives)?18:30
JoseeAntonioRI think that's a question for #ubuntu-irc18:30
elfyyou'll have to give me the answer elsewhere - I only come here now if I've pointed somewhere here18:30
Robitronwildmann, i'm here.  it doesn't matter to me where we chat, i just need to get this resolved.  lol  and i appreciate your help.  :)20:29
Robitronso what is the second issue that you think i have?20:29
wildmanne39Robitron, I am not sure that ubuntu installed correctly20:30
wildmanne39what version did you install?20:30
Robitroni've tried to install it three seperate times.  :(20:30
Robitronthe 12.x one.20:30
wildmanne3912.04?20:30
Robitronthat sounds right.20:30
Robitronhow can i find out for sure?20:30
wildmanne39just checking 12.10 is out but it is in development20:31
wildmanne39uname -a20:31
Robitronuname -a? what is that?20:31
Robitroni know i have 12.0x20:32
wildmanne39ok good enough20:32
Robitronjust can't remember what the x is.  lol20:32
Robitronalso, i tried to dl it again to a new disk but i couldn't get it to work, i was thinking it's probably because i don't officially have it installed on here yet so nothing gets saved.20:33
wildmanne39I think it would be best to download the bootscript info and create a new post with it included so an expert like oldfred can have a look20:33
Robitronokay, not sure what that means.  where do i download the bootscript info?20:34
wildmanne39getting the info20:34
Robitronokay. thanks, man.20:34
wildmanne39Robitron, here it is http://sourceforge.net/projects/bootinfoscript/ post in general or installation and upgrades20:37
Robitronokay. thanks, mate.  i appreciate the help.20:39
wildmanne39welcome!20:39
Robitronumm, i'm not sure what happened but all i got were three read-me type files.  :(20:42
Robitronokay, i think i found out what's happening.  it's a script, not an executable file.20:45
Robitronwildmann, sorry to bother you, yet again but i extracted it to my desktop but now, when i try to run it, it says there's no such file or directory.  :(20:52
wildmanne39Robitron, you there?21:05
Robitronyeah, i'm here.  and i can't figure out the path to the script.21:05
geirhadrag the file from nautilus (the filebrowser) into the terminal window. It'll fill in the full path to the file.21:35
