| mazal | Môre oom | 05:54 |
| Kilos | ek het bietjie gedink oor jou probleem | 05:54 |
| Kilos | al wat ek dink jy kan doen is om as ander user met admin krag jou mazal te remove en dan nuwe user weer te create as mazal of vir n ruk net as die ander user te werk | 05:56 |
| Kilos | iewers het ek die commands vir useradd of adduser met admin | 05:57 |
| bduk | Goeie more almal | 05:57 |
| mazal | Ja nee ek weet hoe om dit te doen oom , maar het nie rerig tyd nou nie | 06:00 |
| Kilos | ok | 06:00 |
| mazal | Ek sukkel maar so aan vir nou | 06:00 |
| mazal | Is nog net die Unity dash wat nie reg werk nie , die res is darem reg | 06:00 |
| Kilos | hehe | 06:00 |
| Kilos | iewers het jy iets verkeerd gedoen | 06:01 |
| Kilos | dis nie ubuntu nie eks seker | 06:01 |
| mazal | Ek het niks gedoen nie | 06:42 |

| Kilos | hi Vince-0 | 06:59 |
| Vince-0 | Hii | 07:03 |
| Kilos | hi Xethron psychicist | 08:20 |
| === ThatGraemeGuy_ is now known as ThatGraemeGuy | ||
| Kilos | hi ThatGraemeGuy | 09:39 |
| Kilos | i see we got net splits again | 09:39 |
| psyatw | hi Kilos | 11:29 |
| Private_User | good day all | 11:38 |
| Private_User | just an update, I now tried installing Ubuntu 12.04 on my Desktop and the install seems to have succeeded. I say seems, because during the install it froze after at the end I clicked restart now so I had to perform a hard reset. It has booted into the system and there are no issues I can see | 11:43 |
| Private_User | but then I tries Lubuntu 13.10 and 12.10 and bith give me the same issue as Ubuntu 13.10 | 11:44 |
| Private_User | so I tried 12.04 and that worked | 11:44 |
| Private_User | seems like these version 13.xx do not like my machine | 11:45 |
| Private_User | btw another question what is the max number of ubuntu distributions I can install on one HDD? | 11:56 |
| bduk | Hey dude it is Linux not windowzz you only need one | 12:23 |
| Kilos | lol | 12:31 |
| Kilos | Private_User, you can install a few if you have the space | 12:32 |
| Kilos | 12.04 is a bit lighter than 12.10 and up | 12:32 |
| Kilos | thats why im using it too | 12:33 |
| Kilos | my pc also sometimes doesnt do the restart now function | 12:34 |
| Kilos | other times it takes ages to actually get to restart | 12:34 |
| Kilos | much easier and quicker to use sudo reboot in the command line interface | 12:34 |
| Kilos | terminal that is | 12:34 |
| Kilos | shout if you need help | 12:35 |
| mazal | I might be wrong , but I think you can't have more than 4 primary partitions on a HDD. So in theory the limit is 4 OS's | 12:36 |
| Kilos | might be able to use more in extended partitions i think | 12:38 |
| Private_User | yo people, thanks for that | 12:41 |
| Kilos | but stick with 12.04 with them different distros then if you save the packages, you can use that for upgrading the others | 12:41 |
| Kilos | install synaptic | 12:41 |
| Kilos | lemme see how to save packages | 12:42 |
| Kilos | then open synaptic and tick on settings then preferences | 12:44 |
| Kilos | under files tick save all packages in the cache | 12:44 |
| Kilos | then ill give you commands to rsync them to storage or to a folder you want to save them in | 12:45 |
| Private_User | thanks Kilos | 12:47 |
| mazal | Bye everyone , enjoy your weekend | 12:47 |
| Kilos | yw | 12:47 |
| Kilos | cheers mazal | 12:47 |
| Kilos | be good | 12:47 |
| mazal | Ek sal try niks breek nie oom | 12:47 |
| Kilos | hehe | 12:47 |
| mazal | bye | 12:47 |
| Kilos | with your lappy being a faster pc you will most likely find it can work with later releases | 12:59 |
| Kilos | but lets first get you happy with 12.04 | 13:00 |
| Private_User | yep but so far am very confused on which distro to settle with have seen now Ubuntu, Lubuntu and Kubuntu | 13:12 |
| Kilos | lol | 13:13 |
| Private_User | wondering if I should give Xubuntu a try as well | 13:13 |
| Kilos | i did its a lot like lubuntu if i member right | 13:13 |
| Kilos | but unity on 12.04 is lekker to start | 13:13 |
| Kilos | then my second choice is kubuntu | 13:14 |
| Private_User | ok but to confirm is it only the interfaces that are different? | 13:14 |
| Private_User | well thats what I could see | 13:14 |
| Kilos | yip just the graphics interface | 13:15 |
| Private_User | if they are all as powerfull as each other then I might as well just use the Ubuntu | 13:15 |
| Kilos | kubuntu is very powerful and has many tools i dont see in the others | 13:16 |
| Kilos | just takes a bit og getting used to | 13:16 |
| Kilos | of | 13:16 |
| Private_User | ok but any reason why Ubuntu does not see the full 512MB of ram? | 13:16 |
| Kilos | it should | 13:17 |
| Kilos | how is it running if it dont see it all | 13:17 |
| Private_User | and it also states that my CPU is an Intel Celeron not an Intel Pentium 4 | 13:17 |
| Private_User | but Kubuntu seems to give the correct info | 13:17 |
| Kilos | celeron is P4 | 13:17 |
| Kilos | wow did you get them all? | 13:18 |
| Kilos | all night downloading | 13:18 |
| Private_User | only Ubuntu, Lubuntu and Kubuntu | 13:18 |
| Private_User | yeah but wasted by downloading the versions greater than 12.04 | 13:18 |
| Kilos | are you using one here now? | 13:18 |
| Kilos | we learn by our errors | 13:19 |
| Private_User | nope its all on my Desktop which is a standalone | 13:19 |
| Kilos | but faster pcs will work with them so keep them | 13:19 |
| Private_User | yeah will do | 13:19 |
| Kilos | you should come online with the desktop | 13:20 |
| Kilos | then its easier to copy/paste commands | 13:20 |
| Private_User | cool maybe I will share this internet connection | 13:20 |
| Kilos | oh you have a router? | 13:21 |
| Private_User | nope but I will use a direct cable connection from the desktop to the laptop | 13:21 |
| Kilos | hmm... thats tricky | 13:21 |
| Kilos | will need to use iptables i think | 13:22 |
| Kilos | drove me nuts that did | 13:22 |
| Private_User | yeah but better to try these tricky things so I can learn Ubuntu much much quicker then taking the easier route | 13:22 |
| Private_User | lol | 13:22 |
| Kilos | maybe the lappy will share easier | 13:23 |
| Private_User | yep will try it in a bit, brb | 13:23 |
| Kilos | if you can boot into the desktop you can just plug the modem in there | 13:23 |
| Kilos | ai! | 15:16 |
| Kilos | hmm... ThatGraemeGuy not going home? | 15:47 |
| Kilos | Maaz, office docs is <reply> https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/documentation/ | 16:01 |
| Maaz | Kilos: I'll remember that | 16:01 |
| Kilos | hi oupateddie welcome to ubuntu-za | 16:23 |
| oupateddie | Thanks | 16:24 |
| Kilos | the guys are all busy most of the time here but state your problem and sooner or later someone will point you in the right direction | 16:24 |
| oupateddie | Did not know of this IRC, but it'll load now when I enter freenode | 16:24 |
| oupateddie | Will do so now | 16:24 |
| oupateddie | Everytime I use Libre Office 4.1 on an Ubuntu 12.04 machine the Unity 2-D crashes and there is no top menu nor side Unity menu. Is this a problem with LO or perhaps Ubuntu? | 16:25 |
| Kilos | how did you get 4.1. im on 12.04 and only see 3.5 | 16:25 |
| Kilos | ook hoe verder hulle vorder hoe beter pc het jy nodig | 16:29 |
| oupateddie | I down loaded 4.1.0 from the Libre Office site and installed it | 16:30 |
| oupateddie | You just load the ppa and update | 16:30 |
| oupateddie | then the update manager installes it for you all of about 184 mb | 16:31 |
| Kilos | whew | 16:31 |
| Kilos | i just started with office writer and nothing crashed yet | 16:31 |
| Kilos | but 3.5 comes in the repos so no ppa needed | 16:34 |
| Kilos | that might be your prob | 16:34 |
| oupateddie | mmmm | 16:36 |
| Kilos | you can actually try sudo aptitude reinstall ubuntu-desktop and see if it wants to download, then you arent upgraded properly | 16:37 |
| Kilos | ohi superfly | 17:37 |
| superfly | hi Kilos\ | 17:37 |
| magespawn | Good evening all | 18:13 |
| Kilos | hi magespawn | 18:14 |
| Kilos | you work weekends too? | 18:14 |
| magespawn | How things Kilos? | 18:14 |
| magespawn | Yes saturdays only though | 18:14 |
| Kilos | good ty busting nogging with libreoffice writer | 18:14 |
| magespawn | Why? What is wrong? | 18:15 |
| Kilos | much too much to try remember | 18:15 |
| Kilos | nothing wrong yet | 18:15 |
| Kilos | learning from scratch | 18:16 |
| Kilos | never use any office stuff before | 18:16 |
| Kilos | used | 18:16 |
| Kilos | head much too small to fit all that in | 18:16 |
| magespawn | See if there is a cheat sheet or something, or quick reference | 18:17 |
| Kilos | managed to make a cover with scribus but heavy work putting text in so did text in office writer now to amalgamate them | 18:18 |
| Kilos | sjoe | 18:18 |
| Kilos | i got a lekker book but it has soooo much in | 18:18 |
| Kilos | and not in english | 18:18 |
| Kilos | old english | 18:19 |
| Kilos | dont find the word cover anywhere | 18:19 |
| Kilos | funny things like styles | 18:19 |
| magespawn | Scribus is a layout program | 18:20 |
| Kilos | i try one thing and mess up others | 18:20 |
| magespawn | Used for desktop publishing, when i have used i almost always found it better to do the text in writer | 18:21 |
| magespawn | That is how we learn | 18:21 |
| Kilos | sjoe | 18:22 |
| Kilos | and i save to wrong places and delete wrong things | 18:22 |
| Kilos | sjoe | 18:22 |
| Kilos | but im getting there | 18:23 |
| magespawn | Indeed | 18:23 |
| Kilos | we really got to do something about getting us better advertised | 18:24 |
| Kilos | met another bally also battling with office and 12.04 and he didnt know we existed | 18:24 |
| Kilos | his office crashes his unity | 18:24 |
| Kilos | how can za peeps use ubuntu , some for years , and not know about ubuntu-za | 18:27 |
| Kilos | shocking | 18:28 |
| magespawn | Makes we wonder how they get it. | 18:39 |
| magespawn | S/we/me | 18:39 |
| Kilos | i think just by checking everything irc with ubuntu in till one day they popup here | 18:40 |
| magespawn | I meant how do they get ubuntu | 18:47 |
| Kilos | oh, i havent asked yet. will start | 18:48 |
| Kilos | btw magespawn how did you find ubuntu and how did you get here | 19:01 |
| Kilos | night all. sleep tight | 19:29 |
