[00:11] # [00:13] ? [00:28] Blazemore: You can go to #ubuntu-offtopic for offtopic chat [03:17] I'm trying to make a link from my quake2 folder in my home directory to my desktop, if the link is in my quake2 folder it works but when i copy it to my desktop it won't run properly... any ideas? [07:40] I would like some help with likewise open on 12.04 LTS on a Widows Server 2003 AD :) [07:45] If I were you, I'd take a look over https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/likewise-open.html and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LikewiseOpen [07:50] Thanks Unit 193 will give them a try :) [07:50] Never had the chance to do that type of thing, not sure if that's good or bad though. May take a look at centrifydc, it's in the partner repo. === shadeslayer is now known as shadeslayer_ === shadeslayer_ is now known as shadeslayer [20:23] i need help [20:24] anyone know how to use Qjackqtrl? [20:25] What is it? [20:25] im not getting any output from it. [21:46] hello - i have a question - how do I show all menu items in the dash [22:53] I'm trying to play an mp3 file from a terminal, I type totem file path and doesn't work, totem starts and it says "location not found" [22:58] earthling does the filename have spaces in it? earthling_ [22:59] yes, [22:59] do I need to do the \ ? [22:59] instead [22:59] Yes you do [22:59] I'll try [22:59] Otherwise it thinks they are separate arguments [22:59] If you start typing the name and hit Tab it might complete it for you, escaped spaces and all [23:01] still doesn't work [23:01] Can you show me the exact command you are typing? On here if it's short [23:02] desktop:~$ totem /home/Desktop/Desktop\24/Desktop\14/leftovers.mp3 [23:03] What's with the 24 and the 14? [23:03] Why are there a million Desktops? [23:04] Is the file you are trying to open in /home/Desktop/Desktop 24/Desktop 14/leftovers.mp3 [23:04] If so, you need /home/Desktop/Desktop\ 24/Desktop\ 14/leftovers.mp3 [23:04] desktop is cluttered [23:05] You put a backslash before a character like space to say to the terminal "The next character is literally the character I type, don't try and do anything fancy with it" [23:05] so space is ok after the \? [23:05] Yes, exactly [23:05] I'll try [23:06] If a filename has a space in it, you need to put a \ before the space, not instead of it [23:06] Be quick cos I need to go to sleep [23:06] works now [23:06] thanks [23:07] Great, no problem [23:07] Why did you need to do it from the terminal anyway? [23:07] trying to setup ktimer [23:07] ever use it? [23:08] If you want to play stuff on the command line without using a GUI player, install the package "vlc-nox" which provides the programs "cvlc" and "nvlc" [23:08] No I don't know what ktimer is [23:08] small alarm clock program [23:08] for kde
