[05:52] <Kilos> hi Squirm and all others
[05:53] <Kilos> yo bduk mazal 
[05:54] <mazal> Môre oom
[05:54] <Kilos> ek het bietjie gedink oor jou probleem
[05:56] <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
[05:57] <Kilos> iewers het ek die commands vir useradd of adduser met admin
[05:57] <bduk> Goeie more almal
[06:00] <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
[06:01] <Kilos> iewers het jy iets verkeerd gedoen
[06:01] <Kilos> dis nie ubuntu nie eks seker
[06:42] <mazal> Ek het niks gedoen nie
[06:42] <mazal> Was na updates stukkend
[06:42] <Kilos> haha ek terg man
[06:42] <mazal> Die keer is ek onskuldig lol
[06:43] <Kilos> nie al die cron anacron goed nie
[06:43] <Kilos> al die diep goed
[06:47] <mazal> Ek dink nie dit sal efeek hê nie. Ek het huidig net 'n paar gewone cron jobs
[06:48] <Kilos> ek bang al die diep goed
[06:48] <Kilos> hehe
[06:59] <Kilos> hi Vince-0 
[07:03] <Vince-0> Hii
[08:20] <Kilos> hi Xethron psychicist 
[09:39] <Kilos> hi ThatGraemeGuy 
[09:39] <Kilos> i see we got net splits again
[11:29] <psyatw> hi Kilos
[11:38] <Private_User> good day all
[11:43] <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
[11:44] <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
[11:45] <Private_User> seems like these version 13.xx do not like my machine
[11:56] <Private_User> btw another question what is the max number of ubuntu distributions I can install on one HDD?
[12:23] <bduk> Hey dude it is Linux not windowzz you only need one
[12:31] <Kilos> lol
[12:32] <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
[12:33] <Kilos> thats why im using it too
[12:34] <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
[12:35] <Kilos> shout if you need help
[12:36] <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
[12:38] <Kilos> might be able to use more in extended partitions i think
[12:41] <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
[12:42] <Kilos> lemme see how to save packages
[12:44] <Kilos> then open synaptic and tick on settings then preferences
[12:44] <Kilos> under files tick save all packages in the cache
[12:45] <Kilos> then ill give you commands to rsync them to storage or to a folder you want to save them in
[12:47] <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
[12:59] <Kilos> with your lappy being a faster pc you will most likely find it can work with later releases
[13:00] <Kilos> but lets first get you happy with 12.04
[13:12] <Private_User> yep but so far am very confused on which distro to settle with have seen now Ubuntu, Lubuntu and Kubuntu
[13:13] <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
[13:14] <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
[13:15] <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
[13:16] <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?
[13:17] <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
[13:18] <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?
[13:19] <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
[13:20] <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
[13:21] <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
[13:22] <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
[13:23] <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
[15:16] <Kilos> ai!
[15:47] <Kilos> hmm... ThatGraemeGuy not going home?
[16:01] <Kilos> Maaz, office docs is <reply> https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/documentation/
[16:01] <Maaz> Kilos: I'll remember that
[16:23] <Kilos> hi oupateddie welcome to ubuntu-za
[16:24] <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
[16:25] <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
[16:29] <Kilos> ook hoe verder hulle vorder hoe beter pc het jy nodig
[16:30] <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 
[16:31] <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
[16:34] <Kilos> but 3.5 comes in the repos so no ppa needed
[16:34] <Kilos> that might be your prob
[16:36] <oupateddie> mmmm
[16:37] <Kilos> you can actually try sudo aptitude reinstall ubuntu-desktop and see if it wants to download, then you arent upgraded properly
[17:37] <Kilos> ohi superfly 
[17:37] <superfly> hi Kilos\
[18:13] <magespawn> Good evening all
[18:14] <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
[18:15] <magespawn> Why? What is wrong?
[18:15] <Kilos> much too much to try remember
[18:15] <Kilos> nothing wrong yet
[18:16] <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
[18:17] <magespawn> See if there is a cheat sheet or something, or quick reference
[18:18] <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
[18:19] <Kilos> old english
[18:19] <Kilos> dont find the word cover anywhere
[18:19] <Kilos> funny things like styles
[18:20] <magespawn> Scribus is a layout program
[18:20] <Kilos> i try one thing and mess up others
[18:21] <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
[18:22] <Kilos> sjoe
[18:22] <Kilos> and i save to wrong places and delete wrong things
[18:22] <Kilos> sjoe
[18:23] <Kilos> but im getting there
[18:23] <magespawn> Indeed
[18:24] <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
[18:27] <Kilos> how can za peeps use ubuntu , some for years , and not know about ubuntu-za
[18:28] <Kilos> shocking
[18:39] <magespawn> Makes we wonder how they get it.
[18:39] <magespawn> S/we/me
[18:40] <Kilos> i think just by checking everything irc with ubuntu in till one day they popup here
[18:47] <magespawn> I meant how do they get ubuntu
[18:48] <Kilos> oh, i havent asked yet. will start
[19:01] <Kilos> btw magespawn how did you find ubuntu and how did you get here
[19:29] <Kilos> night all. sleep tight
[19:35] <magespawn> Maaz tell Kilos I was given a Kubuntu 7.10 disc that did not work, and Googled from there.
[19:35] <Maaz> magespawn: Sure, I'll tell Kilos on freenode
[19:37] <magespawn> Good night all
