Kilos | hi there Squirm | 06:40 |
magespawn | good day all | 07:12 |
Kilos | ohi magespawn what broke | 07:12 |
magespawn | looks like a router, but i am not a 100% sure on that | 07:13 |
Kilos | eish whats it doing? or not doing | 07:13 |
Kilos | i go let sheep out | 07:18 |
magespawn | looks like the wan port is faulty, but the jury is still out on that one, have put a spare in and that seems to work fine | 07:23 |
Kilos | aha | 07:30 |
Kilos | maybe at times wired stuff is more reliable | 07:31 |
Kilos | when routers give probs are they fixable or does one discard and replace them? | 07:53 |
Kilos | wb magespawn | 07:53 |
magespawn | ty Kilos, network here is a bit strange | 07:53 |
Kilos | hi somaunn | 08:15 |
somaunn | Hi Kilos | 08:15 |

Kilos | hi charl | 08:21 |
charl | good morning | 08:22 |
charl | hi Kilos | 08:22 |
charl | Maaz: coffee on | 08:22 |
* Maaz starts grinding coffee | 08:22 | |
somaunn | hi Maaz, keep me some | 08:23 |
sakhi | :) funny enough I do it most of the time with longer nicknames. | 08:24 |
Maaz | Coffee's ready for charl! | 08:26 |
charl | Maaz: thanks | 08:27 |
Maaz | charl: Okay :-) | 08:27 |
charl | hi sakhi | 08:27 |
charl | hi somaunn | 08:27 |
somaunn | what new here | 09:26 |
Kilos | hi psyatw Xethron | 09:27 |
Kilos | no chnage somaunn | 09:27 |
Kilos | change | 09:27 |
psyatw | hi Kilos | 09:28 |
psyatw | hi somaunn | 09:28 |
psyatw | hi Xethron | 09:28 |
Kilos | speed up a bit today | 09:32 |
Kilos | Download Speed: 3403 kbps (425.4 KB/sec transfer rate) | 09:32 |
Kilos | Upload Speed: 1062 kbps (132.8 KB/sec transfer rate) | 09:32 |
Kilos | Latency: 73 ms | 09:32 |
somaunn | Kilos: i can see | 09:44 |
somaunn | hi psyatw | 09:44 |
Kilos | my telkom mobile is actually quite good | 09:45 |
somaunn | hey Kilos, is that your home internet speed ? | 09:45 |
Kilos | yip my 3g | 09:45 |
Kilos | when i download big files it runs around 500kB/s most of the time | 09:46 |
Kilos | wbb, just going to kde | 09:48 |
somaunn | Kilos: please tell me when we say 3403kbps but see on the DM 425.4kbps transfer is there something wrong ? | 09:59 |
Kilos | the 425.4kbps should be kB | 10:00 |
Kilos | kilobytes | 10:01 |
Kilos | small b is bits | 10:01 |
somaunn | Kilos: okay | 10:04 |
somaunn | please explain that to me because i'm sometime lost | 10:04 |
Kilos | ok | 10:04 |
Kilos | 8 bits make up one byte | 10:04 |
Kilos | some people give you speeds in mb/s and others in kB/s | 10:05 |
Kilos | if you only getting kb/s that is very slow | 10:06 |
Kilos | 3403/8 | 10:07 |
Kilos | ai! | 10:07 |
Kilos | Maaz: 3403/8 | 10:07 |
Maaz | Kilos: 425.375 | 10:07 |
Kilos | 3403 is mb/s | 10:07 |
Kilos | 425 is kB/s | 10:08 |
Kilos | reg ne inetpro ? | 10:08 |
somaunn | Kilos: ok | 10:11 |
somaunn | let me make it clear | 10:11 |
somaunn | what is megabyte and what is megabit | 10:11 |
somaunn | ? | 10:12 |
Kilos | megabit is a million bits | 10:12 |
Kilos | megabyte is 8 times that | 10:12 |
Kilos | 8 bits make up one byte | 10:13 |
inetpro | Kilos: bytes are less than bits | 10:17 |
Kilos | yes | 10:17 |
inetpro | so it's megabits/8 to get megabytes | 10:17 |
Kilos | no | 10:17 |
Kilos | bytes are 8 bits | 10:17 |
inetpro | 1 byte = 8 bits | 10:18 |
Kilos | yes | 10:18 |
Kilos | look where i got maaz to divide for me | 10:18 |
somaunn | Kilos, inetpro: you are going too fast please | 10:18 |
inetpro | ai! | 10:19 |
somaunn | i want to know what is amount of data and what is speed | 10:19 |
somaunn | speed related | 10:19 |
Kilos | ok 3403kb/s is kilobits per second | 10:20 |
inetpro | speed is measured in seconds | 10:20 |
Kilos | in bytes the exactly same thing is 425.375kB/s | 10:20 |
somaunn | ok, if we talk speed the we say [3megabit per second] | 10:21 |
inetpro | 3403 kb = 425.375 kB | 10:21 |
somaunn | when we talk data we say [425.375 kilobytes per second] | 10:22 |
Kilos | some do yes but if i use aptitude upgarde or install it shows me in kB/s | 10:22 |
Kilos | its the same thing | 10:22 |
inetpro | kb = kilobits | 10:22 |
inetpro | kB = kilobytes | 10:22 |
Kilos | thats how long it takes to download | 10:22 |
inetpro | mb = megabits | 10:23 |
inetpro | mB = megabytes | 10:23 |
inetpro | 3403 kb = 3.403 mb | 10:24 |
Kilos | no | 10:24 |
inetpro | yes | 10:24 |
inetpro | 1000 kb = 1 mb | 10:25 |
Kilos | oh ya sorry | 10:25 |
Kilos | hmm... | 10:25 |
Kilos | .3 isnt it | 10:25 |
Kilos | 3403 kb is 425 kB which is under half a meg | 10:26 |
Kilos | oh in bytes | 10:26 |
Kilos | whew | 10:27 |
inetpro | 425 kBps is not bad | 10:27 |
somaunn | inetpro, Kilos: you see all the confusion comes from my home language | 10:28 |
inetpro | anything above 128kBps is very workable | 10:28 |
somaunn | in french we usually say kilo or meg without any regard to which is data/speed related | 10:28 |
Kilos | 1000 bits=1byte | 10:29 |
Kilos | 1000 bytes =1 meg | 10:30 |
Kilos | hi Vince-0 | 10:30 |
Kilos | somaunn: they are all speed and amounts of data per second | 10:31 |
Kilos | the amount of data per second downloaded is the speed your net is working at | 10:32 |
Kilos | same as kilometers per hour is the distance travelled in an hour | 10:34 |
Kilos | haha hi Eames | 10:38 |
somaunn | Kilos, inetpro: Thank you so much for your help | 10:44 |
Kilos | yw | 10:44 |
Kilos | thats why we are here | 10:45 |
Kilos | just need a clever oke to check at times | 10:45 |
Vince-0 | ! | 10:45 |
Kilos | my bits and bytes knowledge is memories from 30 years ago | 10:46 |
Kilos | hi Golynx | 10:47 |
Golynx | Hey Kilos | 10:47 |
Golynx | Downloaded the driver, was about 93MB total, but only 46MB for each of the 2 that was on the list, but they were similar | 10:49 |
Golynx | It shows some weird graphics card in system details ATI Fire GL. When i look in terminal it shows the correct card | 10:50 |
Kilos | explain look in terminal please | 10:51 |
Golynx | There is a big lag in the browser, and the loading icon aswell turns slower than it used to | 10:51 |
Kilos | what browser you talking about? | 10:53 |
Kilos | opera | 10:53 |
Golynx | Well that info on that site said to type in fglrxinfo and it shows my card ATI radeon HD 3200 | 10:53 |
Golynx | Yes | 10:53 |
Kilos | that could be your internet sucking | 10:54 |
Golynx | Everything in the browser is now slow | 10:54 |
Kilos | sudo aptitude reinstall opera | 10:54 |
Golynx | nope , page scroll aswell got big lag and hurt my eyes | 10:54 |
Golynx | ok | 10:55 |
Kilos | maybe those graphics drivers have added something opera doesnt see | 10:55 |
Golynx | Plus the windows got shadows around them now, and more animated effects | 10:56 |
Kilos | lol | 10:56 |
Kilos | you should use kubuntu and turn off desktop effects | 10:56 |
Golynx | Why lol | 10:56 |
Kilos | i also hate all the animated stuff | 10:56 |
Kilos | but not everything can be turned off | 10:57 |
Golynx | hmm this sucks | 10:57 |
Kilos | modern peeps like the eye candy | 10:57 |
Golynx | In ubuntu tweak i can now turn off the dash opacity and some other minor effects , but now windows shadows or animation efects options | 10:58 |
Golynx | no* | 10:59 |
Kilos | ai! | 10:59 |
Golynx | Now when i browse nautilus , the fan starts spinning faster and faster | 11:01 |
Kilos | maybe when you got data install mate | 11:02 |
Kilos | thats very light | 11:03 |
Kilos | installs into ubuntu | 11:03 |
Golynx | And why did it only say 2D acceleration when i installed the driver, Yesterday it said 3D acceleration will be activated when installed | 11:05 |
Kilos | maybe there is a way to set it to 2d | 11:08 |
Golynx | Really its should not be that hard , just to put an "Disable animated effects" option in unity 2D | 11:10 |
Golynx | Even where i input text is lagged now | 11:10 |
Golynx | With mate i will have to install everything again | 11:12 |
Golynx | hi magespawn | 11:13 |
Golynx | Kilos i see compiz is using 20% of the cpu all the time. That should not be happening | 11:20 |
Kilos | thats mainly because of min ram i think | 11:23 |
Kilos | isnt there a way to make it use 2d | 11:23 |
Golynx | And 60% cpu when i scroll in opera or move a window | 11:24 |
Golynx | I dont know | 11:24 |
Kilos | wait lemme ask google | 11:26 |
Kilos | maaz google how to revert to 2d on 12.04 | 11:27 |
Maaz | Kilos: "After Ubuntu 12.04 LTS update, Only Unity 2D ... bug? - Ask Ubuntu" http://askubuntu.com/questions/262320/after-ubuntu-12-04-lts-update-only-unity-2d-bug :: "unity - Your Ubuntu 12.04 is running in 2D mode.

Kilos | thats better | 11:28 |
Kilos | my pc got faster when i installed the correct graphics drivers | 11:30 |
Golynx | lemme try something | 11:31 |
Kilos | reboot | 11:33 |
Kilos | graphics install stuff to kernel | 11:33 |
Golynx | Right i managed to cure the lag issue, by rebooting and on login click on the ubuntu icon where it gives Ubuntu 3D and Ubuntu 2D options, so i picked 2D. No more lag and that pest "compiz" is dead | 11:45 |
Kilos | yay | 11:49 |
Kilos | well done | 11:50 |
Kilos | soon you can help me | 11:50 |
Golynx | lol , i dunno why they hide that option though | 11:50 |
Kilos | most young peeps dont want to change things | 11:51 |
Kilos | eye candy rules | 11:51 |
Golynx | Atleast my system seems to be running cool and calm now | 11:51 |
Kilos | thats good | 11:51 |
Golynx | lol, a student cannot help his teacher | 11:52 |
Kilos | should be faster with them drivers installed and running on 2d | 11:52 |
Kilos | oh yes | 11:52 |
Kilos | the student just needs to think more | 11:53 |
Golynx | haha ya sure :p | 11:53 |
* Golynx can finally say UBUNTU ROCKS !!! :D | 11:54 | |
Kilos | dont forget different pepps see things differently | 11:54 |
Kilos | ooo yay that made my day | 11:54 |
Golynx | Thanks for all the help Kilos , it was a success :) | 11:55 |
Kilos | often looking at stuff from a different viewpoints helps peeps find easier way and shortcuts | 11:55 |
Kilos | youre welcome laddy | 11:55 |
Golynx | Ya thats true , its the best way to do things | 11:56 |
Kilos | many hands make tight work | 11:57 |
Golynx | The rest is up to me now, so no more complaints from me hehe | 11:57 |
Kilos | unless globe is blown | 11:57 |
Kilos | lol | 11:57 |
Kilos | youre startup approach was wrong | 11:57 |
Golynx | How do you mean | 11:58 |
Kilos | one must forget what you did on wondows | 11:58 |
Golynx | oh | 11:58 |
Kilos | and start from scratch | 11:58 |
Golynx | Ya linux is different in many ways , but some base computer principles still apply | 11:58 |
Kilos | like if you get on an old motorbike | 11:59 |
Kilos | it doesnt help saying i cant find the str=arter button | 11:59 |
Kilos | there wasnt one | 11:59 |
Golynx | lol , thats a nice one | 11:59 |
Kilos | like the pro always says you must compair apples with apples nothing else | 12:00 |
Kilos | compare | 12:00 |
Kilos | now if you try another linux os then you can compair | 12:01 |
Kilos | ai! | 12:01 |
Kilos | compare | 12:01 |
Golynx | Thanks i will remember that | 12:01 |
Golynx | Your a wise one :) | 12:01 |
Kilos | na | 12:02 |
Kilos | my email addy sums me up | 12:02 |
Kilos | and the pro borrows it now and again | 12:02 |
Golynx | true , the years adds wisdom, so you can pass that on to the young ones, to continue the cycle | 12:03 |
* mazal wonder wat oom Kilos gedrink het | 12:03 | |
Kilos | hehe | 12:03 |
Kilos | net tee man | 12:03 |
mazal | Ek sien die tikwerk werk nie so lekker vandag nie oom :) | 12:04 |
Kilos | kop klap ietwat | 12:04 |
Kilos | but im smiling. another happy ubuntu user, and billy boy loses out again | 12:07 |
magespawn | afternoon all, i see i have been a yoyo today | 12:16 |
Kilos | oh i found an option in kde where you can choose what your connection speed shows as | 12:16 |
Kilos | kb/s or kB/s | 12:17 |
Kilos | wb magespawn | 12:17 |
Golynx | Wb magespawn | 12:22 |
somaunn | Kilos: that's good | 12:24 |
Kilos | wish it was after 14.04 release date | 12:35 |
magespawn | thanks guys | 12:35 |
Kilos | wanna try kubuntu 14.04 | 12:35 |
magespawn | i have a complex question here | 12:35 |
Kilos | sjoe | 12:35 |
magespawn | on this machine i can get out on to the internet my ip address is 10.0.0.114 netmask 255.255.255.0 | 12:36 |
magespawn | on my lubuntu laptop i dead end in a router config page at 10.0.10.1 and my ip is 10.0.0.115 netmask 255.0.0.0 | 12:37 |
magespawn | my question is how is this possible? | 12:38 |
magespawn | i understand they are on two different subnets but as far as i have been told there is only one router here. | 12:39 |
magespawn | now obviously this is wrong | 12:39 |
* magespawn goes on a router hunt | 12:42 | |
mazal | Bye everyone , enjoy your evening | 12:42 |
Kilos | magespawn: you can set your ips and stuff in nm | 12:48 |
Kilos | cant remember the iptables cli way | 12:52 |
Kilos | but why worry if it can go online anyway | 12:52 |
Kilos | but dont routers asign ips automatically | 13:00 |
magespawn | that is the thing Kilos | 13:04 |
magespawn | this one is win7 set dhcp the other is lubuntu also set to dhcp | 13:05 |
Kilos | ai! | 13:05 |
Kilos | ya then the router is asigning them but as long as they can both go online thats good aint it | 13:05 |
Kilos | or doesnt the lappy go online? | 13:08 |
Kilos | the netmask thing | 13:09 |
magespawn | the lubuntu one does not | 13:27 |
magespawn | unplugged and replugged the cable ane hey presto | 13:28 |
magespawn | now it is online | 13:28 |
Kilos | then you gotta go into the router and allow it isnt it | 13:29 |
Kilos | oh my | 13:30 |
Kilos | well theres a luck | 13:30 |
Kilos | no thinking needed | 13:30 |
magespawn | strange, and that is not good | 13:30 |
Kilos | didnt you chnage routers | 13:31 |
Kilos | change | 13:31 |
Kilos | they are stupi things and sometimes only work after rebooting | 13:31 |
somaunn | magespawn: if i get you well your Lubuntu box doesn't pick up dhcp address in auto and you have to unplug and plug again | 13:33 |
somaunn | Kilos: what is the best shell editor | 13:53 |
somaunn | i'm studying powershell as part of job to do | 13:53 |
Kilos | i like nano | 13:53 |
Kilos | but gedit is good | 13:53 |
Kilos | i dunno about shells, is that terminals? | 13:53 |
somaunn | but would like to know if there is something similar | 13:54 |
Kilos | like with bash? | 13:54 |
Kilos | i get lost with all these things | 13:54 |
somaunn | do you know something similar to powershel under linux | 13:55 |
Kilos | such involved questions you must ask inetpro or superfly | 13:55 |
Kilos | Maaz: google alternative to powershell for linux | 13:56 |
Maaz | Kilos: "Microsoft PowerShell 2: Going Beyond its UNIX/Linux Insprirations ..." http://www.oreillynet.com/onlamp/blog/2008/05/microsoft_powershell_2_going_b.html :: "Replacement for Powershell ? - Windows 7 Help Forums" http://www.sevenforums.com/software/161973-replacement-powershell.html :: "Windows PowerShell for UNIX shell addicted person - nixCraft" | 13:56 |

Kilos | look at the last one i think | 13:56 |
Kilos | i go fetch sheep quick | 13:58 |
Golynx | I gave up on Gedit, it did'nt indent my code as i wanted. So i chose Geany instead. Its a nice light little ide | 13:58 |
Golynx | have fun Kilos | 13:59 |
inetpro | somaunn: shell editor or command line editor? | 14:00 |
magespawn | later all | 14:01 |
inetpro | vi or actually vim is the most popular editor by far | 14:02 |
inetpro | vi is just a shortcut to vim | 14:02 |
inetpro | on any modern linux distro at least | 14:03 |
somaunn | inetpro: something similar to powershell | 14:03 |
inetpro | somaunn: what is powershell? | 14:03 |
inetpro | Windows PowerShell is Microsoft's task automation and configuration management framework, consisting of a command-line shell and associated scripting language built on .NET Framework. | 14:04 |
inetpro | somaunn: you mean that ^^ ? | 14:04 |
somaunn | yes | 14:04 |
inetpro | that has very little to do with an editor | 14:05 |
inetpro | and that powershell thingy on windows doesn't come close to what we have on Linux | 14:06 |
superfly | PowerShell is Microsoft's very late answer to what the UNIX world has had for more than 30 years | 14:06 |
inetpro | thank you superfly | 14:07 |
somaunn | inetpro: thanks | 14:07 |
somaunn | what do we have on linux | 14:08 |
somaunn | then | 14:08 |
inetpro | Bourne shell | 14:09 |
inetpro | C shell | 14:09 |
inetpro | Bourne-Again shell | 14:09 |
inetpro | Debian Almquist shell | 14:09 |
inetpro | Korn shell | 14:09 |
inetpro | Z shell | 14:09 |
inetpro | and many more | 14:09 |
inetpro | even python | 14:10 |
inetpro | and some people even prefer to stick with just tee-cee-shell | 14:11 |
inetpro | tcsh | 14:11 |
inetpro | the C shell is like a C programming environment on steroids | 14:14 |
somaunn | inetpro: okay, as far as i know i can access bash from terminal | 14:15 |
somaunn | but i would like to have a dedicated interface to interract with bash | 14:15 |
inetpro | as far as I'm aware bash is probably the most widely used | 14:15 |
inetpro | what do you mean with dedicated interface? | 14:16 |
inetpro | on Kubuntu konsole is my dedicated interface that is always open on my screen | 14:17 |
somaunn | inetpro: like this http://goo.gl/x495by | 14:20 |
Kilos | sjoe | 14:20 |
Kilos | Maaz: LPI manual | 14:21 |
Maaz | http://www.linuxcertification.co.za/sites/default/files/LPIManual_v_09.pdf | 14:21 |
inetpro | rephrase: on Kubuntu, konsole is my dedicated interface and is always in use 99.9% of the time | 14:21 |
Kilos | only shells i like have oysters and mussels in them | 14:22 |
Golynx | lol | 14:29 |
inetpro | somaunn: are you using Ubuntu? | 14:31 |
Kilos | somaunn: get the manual in the above link. you can learn lots about everything there | 14:31 |
inetpro | and what version? | 14:31 |
Kilos | you too Golynx | 14:31 |
inetpro | somaunn: if you ask me this evening I might have more time to answer | 14:32 |
inetpro | obviously others are welcome to chip in at any time | 14:32 |
inetpro | even Kilos knows how to open and close the command line interface | 14:34 |
Golynx | Why use that Kilos. I google anytime i get stuck with something , all in one file is not my style | 14:34 |
Kilos | Golynx: is you can learn to do everything in that maunual you can go write the LPI exam | 14:35 |

Golynx | Bug in opera , cant untick hide filetype extensions | 14:42 |
Golynx | What is that terminal download manager ? | 14:43 |
somaunn | Golynx: leave opera jump the firefox | 14:43 |
inetpro | somaunn: hmm... nothing wrong with that, question that needs to be answered is, what desktop environment you use | 14:43 |
inetpro | is it Gnome or KDE? | 14:43 |
inetpro | or something else | 14:43 |
Golynx | somaunn firefox are too intense on my system | 14:43 |
somaunn | inetpro: Gnome 3.10 (gnome-shell) | 14:44 |
inetpro | somaunn: in that case gnome-shell is your dedicated environment to interact with bash | 14:44 |
somaunn | Golynx: yeah i realized the same but as i don't like chromium at all so i have to keep stayin on firefox | 14:44 |
somaunn | cuz i use downthemall to DL my files | 14:45 |
somaunn | inetpro: oooooooooookaaaaayyyyyyyyyy | 14:45 |

Golynx | how | 17:27 |
Kilos | in synaptic right click reinstall | 17:27 |
Golynx | Mark for reinstallation is disabled | 17:28 |
Kilos | then they are must haves you cant fiddle with | 17:28 |
Kilos | but do those you can | 17:29 |
Kilos | and see if it wants to download | 17:29 |
Kilos | then we know that remastersys dvd didnt do a full job | 17:29 |
Golynx | mark suggested for installation and Removal is the only options | 17:30 |
Kilos | no man | 17:31 |

Kilos | something wrong there | 17:39 |
Golynx | Found this on google: | 17:39 |
Golynx | Re: Urgent Help! Ubuntu 12.04 upgrade - Nautilus broken | 17:39 |
Golynx | You can try deleting your nautilus folder. | 17:39 |
Golynx | Code: | 17:39 |
Golynx | rm -rf .gconf/apps/nautilus/ | 17:39 |
Golynx | and | 17:39 |
Golynx | Code: | 17:39 |
Golynx | rm -rf .config/nautilus/ | 17:39 |
Golynx | Which will delete all your nautilus settings. And then reinstall nautilus | 17:39 |
Golynx | Code: | 17:39 |
Golynx | sudo apt-get install --reinstall nautilus nautilus-data | 17:39 |
Kilos | in synaptic if i right click nautilus it gives reinstall option | 17:39 |
Golynx | Not in mine | 17:40 |
Kilos | what have you fiddled with now | 17:40 |
Kilos | open update manager | 17:40 |
Golynx | Nope nothing , i found that on google | 17:40 |
Golynx | ok | 17:40 |
Kilos | then tick settings and tell me what repo its using | 17:41 |
Kilos | in ubuntu software on the left | 17:42 |
Golynx | main server | 17:42 |
Kilos | change that to server for south africa | 17:42 |
Golynx | ok | 17:42 |
Kilos | i think that repo is sick since last night | 17:43 |
Golynx | oh ok | 17:43 |
Kilos | but now its gonna do the 20 update again | 17:43 |
nlsthzn | if in doubt change to the main server... | 17:43 |
Kilos | it was on main nlsthzn | 17:44 |
nlsthzn | hmmm... | 17:44 |
Golynx | hmm | 17:44 |

Kilos | if you have the data tick check | 17:45 |
Golynx | Last time it was 16mn | 17:45 |

Kilos | no man | 17:57 |

Kilos | then see how much data it wants to download | 17:57 |
Golynx | oh | 17:57 |
Kilos | then decide to go ahead or close | 17:57 |
Kilos | other wise you will need to run updates again | 17:57 |
Golynx | Ya i just want the package list updated and nautilus reinstalled , nothing else | 17:58 |
Kilos | 845kB nautilus is | 18:00 |

Kilos | like doing check in update manager updates but immediately shows available packages | 18:17 |
Kilos | oh my | 18:17 |
Golynx | You didnt say anything after open download manager , i assumed i had to do it in the terminal | 18:17 |
Kilos | then you must be up to date | 18:17 |
Kilos | sudo aptitude reinstall synaptic | 18:17 |
Golynx | ok | 18:17 |
Golynx | Its working | 18:18 |
Kilos | we gotta find why nautilus dont give reinstall option | 18:18 |
Golynx | Need to get 2 405 kB of archives | 18:19 |
Kilos | aha | 18:19 |
Kilos | see it wasnt a complete install | 18:19 |
Kilos | i think you gonna find lots of them | 18:19 |
Golynx | oh really | 18:19 |
Golynx | Lots of what | 18:20 |
Kilos | if something dont work kiff reinstall and see | 18:20 |
Kilos | lots of things that dont work to their best | 18:20 |
Kilos | i dunno why remastersys did that though | 18:21 |
Golynx | oh ok will have to see what gives such an issue | 18:21 |
Kilos | i had it with the first time i tried it | 18:21 |
Kilos | reinstalled everything in synaptic | 18:21 |
Kilos | took a day to tick them all | 18:21 |
Golynx | Most issues are minor though, but get bigger with time | 18:22 |
Golynx | So its hard to spot at first | 18:22 |
Kilos | but now i know where to look for probs | 18:22 |
Golynx | wow | 18:22 |
Kilos | my last remastersys dvd didnt give that prob | 18:23 |
Kilos | oh | 18:23 |
Kilos | made on different pc | 18:23 |
Kilos | who knows | 18:23 |
Golynx | Ya probably, some compression formats change minor things in programs | 18:24 |
Kilos | but if anything dont work smooth reinstall it in synaptic and other packages that are in same line of packages | 18:24 |
Golynx | Right synaptic reinstalled , i think | 18:26 |
Golynx | nautilus still no reinstall option | 18:27 |
Kilos | ai! | 18:28 |
Golynx | only nautilus-share and nautilus-sendto have that option | 18:28 |
Kilos | something is wrong there | 18:29 |
Golynx | hmm | 18:29 |
Kilos | you unticked too many things last week | 18:30 |
Kilos | remember i told you i have had an 80m upgrade since i sent the dvd | 18:30 |
Golynx | I did'nt do that though, its only opera that i locked | 18:31 |
Golynx | and gimp | 18:32 |

inetpro | Kilos: hmm... you and your re-install tendencies | 18:39 |
