[00:03] r4y, btw, I've set it up like shown in the example for "Lucid 10.04" in the guide I linked to in the morning. [00:05] That is, with the "$isofile" variable, so that I don't need to change it in two places when I want to boot another ISO. [00:06] *-two- [00:11] Another BTW, be prepared that in the booted Live ISO you can't access the partition the ISO is located on. [03:58] quick question for you guys, is there a setting in 'quickly' that would prevent someone from being able to edit labels? if so where can i find that so i can turn it off [03:58] wytsa: what labels? [04:32] like a label for a button [04:32] i was going through the getting started tutorial [04:32] and the point i am to change the label on the button to name it refresh the option is there but it is faded and unable to be selected or changed [04:33] i have tried uninstalling quickly and reinstalling it but have the same issue [04:54] wytsa: in unity? [04:54] what button? [05:13] wytsa: sorry.. i dont do dcc's like that.. just use imagebin and share the screenshot here [06:01] krytarik, Thank you for the info and help [06:02] I'm glad that you got that. :) [06:02] I knew a tarik in school, but I can't rememeber if his name was spelled the same.

The Kool aid guy, O no, o ya [06:19] I got to the grub menu using shift but then it was frozen [06:19] Xubuntu was at the bottom of the list [06:21] Do the permission need to be changed. Like for instance allow executing file as program? [06:21] permissions I meant [06:22] own root read write, group root read only, other read only, allow executing file as program not checked [06:23] krytarik [06:24] Unit193 [06:25] I am going to try anyways [06:29] That didn't work [06:29] hey can someone help me figure out how to connect to my home network [06:30] I am used to Ubuntu 10.04 and I am not sure if I can say but I have setup a router before andconnected to it so perhaps [06:30] r4y, read your messages before you left again, it should actually work that way, but I myself have my ISOs on a FAT32 partition. [06:30] hmm [06:31] o/ [06:31] Should I have changed it to allow? [06:31] hi duanedesign [06:31] kool well I called my internet service provider and they said they do not support Linux.
