[03:27] <SamwiseGamgee> How do you delete a group of files?
[03:27] <SamwiseGamgee> I can highlight them easily, but thereś no delete option
[03:30] <tsimpson> press the delete key (or shift-delete to really delete), or right-click on one of the selected files
[03:31] <SamwiseGamgee> ok
[03:32] <SamwiseGamgee> it worked, thanks
[03:33] <tsimpson> no problem
[03:37] <SamwiseGamgee> How do you copy a group of files all highlighted together?
[03:37] <SamwiseGamgee> I can hightlight them all easily, but again, there is no copy option I can see
[03:37] <tsimpson> you can do it from the right-click menu, or simply with Ctrl+C
[03:37] <SamwiseGamgee> ok, I will try it
[03:38] <tsimpson> you can also just click and drag to another folder and it'll ask what you want to do
[03:39] <tsimpson> or also in another window
[03:39] <tsimpson> there's a split button at the top which lets you have two pains open at once
[04:12] <SamwiseGamgee> My apostrophe never works anywhere, and I tried resetting my keyboard to us
[04:12] <SamwiseGamgee> But it did not work
[04:13] <SamwiseGamgee> they said itś because I have an external IME running...whatever that means
[04:13] <SamwiseGamgee> they said I need to compile apostrophe support into my kernel or something
[04:14] <SamwiseGamgee> I don¨t know how to do that....seems like too much trouble just for an apostrophe
[09:02] <lordievader> Good morning.
[09:22] <alket> im using 14.04 and sometimes when i boot, all the windows are black except konsole, i have to reboot until it works.
[09:23] <valorie> yikes
[09:23] <valorie> please discuss this on #ubuntu+1
[09:23] <valorie> and file a bug if one isn't filed yet
[09:34] <alket> thanks valorie
[09:56] <NDS|Dog> when resizing a partition using kde partition manager, does canceling it while it was in the middle of the operation cause both partitions to get corrupted?
[09:57] <ikonia> NDS|Dog: it will cause real problems
[09:57] <ikonia> NDS|Dog: how bad depends what it was doing at that exact moment
[09:58] <NDS|Dog> even when you used the cancel button?
[09:58] <ikonia> yes
[09:58] <NDS|Dog> does gparted also do this?
[09:58] <ikonia> yes
[09:58] <ikonia> there are points of no return
[09:58] <NDS|Dog> i see
[09:59] <NDS|Dog> but that only applies to the selected partitons right?
[09:59] <ikonia> no
[09:59] <ikonia> it depends how it's doing what you've told it to do
[09:59] <ikonia> you're best to allow it to complete and then undo what you've done rather than try to cancel / stop it
[09:59] <lordievader> The whole disk might get corrupted.
[10:00] <NDS|Dog> ah alright, thanks.. but are there possible ways to fix it if ever it gets corrupted?
[10:00] <lordievader> Depends on how badly it get corrupted.
[10:00] <ikonia> it depends
[10:00] <ikonia> normally "no" being realistic
[10:01] <ikonia> but it depends what you told it to do and what it was doing at the time
[10:01] <lordievader> As always before messing with partitions make a backup.
[10:01] <NDS|Dog> T.T
[10:01] <NDS|Dog> well yeah i dont have problems with data but i hate to go back to step 1 again
[10:02] <NDS|Dog> i guess im on a risky edge right now
[10:02] <NDS|Dog> theres a probability that a black out might occur and im on a middle off resizing a partition
[10:02] <NDS|Dog> damn this shit
[10:02] <NDS|Dog> but thanks, i guess ill just prepare for the worst
[10:02] <ikonia> there is no need for that language
[10:03] <NDS|Dog> sorry just frustrated

[15:33] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: Could you please use pastebin next time.
[15:33] <lordievader> !paste | dutchuss2016
[15:34] <dutchuss2016> i dont even know it was working when i firstt instaalled the os about 2 hours ago but i had to restart to finish installing somethign and i lost my 1920x1080 setting
[15:34] <ikonia> dutchuss2016: this is why I told you not to use the minimal cd
[15:34] <dutchuss2016> i tried resetting it up with the command line settup but the opttions i was given sent my tv out of range not ssuupported
[15:35] <dutchuss2016> it was fine when i finished installing the os but i lost it when i restarted how do i go about getting it back
[15:36] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: What you had it working before?
[15:37] <dutchuss2016> it had  automatically set my 1920x1080 setting the firrst time the desktop launched yes
[15:37] <dutchuss2016> after i restarted the computer tho its gone stupid thinking my tv can only handle 1024x768
[15:37] <lordievader> And then you reinstalled it and now it is broken?
[15:39] <dutchuss2016> i added 1080 back with the xrandr  command but something was just slightly not set right for my tv and i got not support im on kubutu right no in 2\1024x768
[15:40] <lordievader> Adding modes with xrandr are volatile IIRC.
[15:41] <dutchuss2016> well how the hell else am i supposed to get back my 1920x1080
[15:42] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: xrandr doesn't list it as a supported mode?
[15:42] <dutchuss2016> it lists the same thing as the display configuration menu in system settings
[15:42] <dutchuss2016> which doesent show everrything my tv is capable of
[15:44] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: With the commands detailed in [1] you can add a mode, however they may not work, and, as I've said, the new modes are volatile. [1] http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/guerrilla-tactics-force-screen-mode-ubuntu
[15:45] <dutchuss2016> and if it dont work how t\do i revert blindly

[15:47] <lordievader> !paste | dutchuss2016
[15:47] <dutchuss2016> !paste
[15:48] <BluesKaj> dutchuss2016, do you hjave a HDMI connection ? if so you should use that.
[15:48] <dutchuss2016> http://paste.ubuntu.com/7240165/
[15:49] <dutchuss2016> my computer does not have hdmi out
[15:49] <dutchuss2016> and my tv only has one hdmi port already taken by my xbox one
[15:50] <BluesKaj> dutchuss2016, then it's time to buy a pci graphics card in order to watch hidef (HD)
[15:50] <dutchuss2016> should i sett it u with 60hz this time instead of what windows was using which is 75 hz
[15:51] <dutchuss2016> my tv iss capable of 75hz
[15:51] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: Highest supported.
[15:51] <dutchuss2016> i hate  this keyboard
[15:51] <dutchuss2016> i tried that and it forced my tv into no support
[15:52] <__sebastian__> hi, I'm trying to get a bluetooth audo device running, but I'm getting connecton errors

[15:54] <dutchuss2016> http://askubuntu.com/questions/138408/how-to-add-display-resolution-fo-an-lcd-in-ubuntu-12-04-xrandr-problem
[15:54] <dutchuss2016> i used that guide to set my moniter only made 2 changes to  the randr commands to suit my hertz
[15:58] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: The guide is the same as the one I linked to earlier. So what's the problem?
[15:59] <dutchuss2016> found the porblem
[15:59] <dutchuss2016> http://paste.ubuntu.com/7240219/
[15:59] <dutchuss2016> it  thinks  virrtual one which shold be my tv is disconnected
[16:00] <dutchuss2016> OMG I HATE THIS DAMN FLEXABLE KEYBOARD
[16:00] <dutchuss2016> so its not that the display res isent there its that it thinks my tv is a different moniter
[16:00] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: Calm down. No need to scream.
[16:01] <dutchuss2016> so how do i reassign my tv to virtual1
[16:03] <dutchuss2016> any ideas
[16:05] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: How many vga ports does your pc have?
[16:05] <dutchuss2016> 1
[16:06] <dutchuss2016> so why the os created this second vga1 is beond me
[16:07] <dutchuss2016> do you want me to run any commands and astebin  the result for you
[16:09] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: VGA1 is then the output you are looking for.
[16:09] <dutchuss2016> no i wanna delete vga one and get back on virtual1
[16:10] <dutchuss2016> because according to xrandr virtual1 has my 19220x1080 setting
[16:10] <lordievader> Virtual1 is probably, as it says, virtual.
[16:11] <dutchuss2016> no its not
[16:12] <dutchuss2016> its what my comuter was using on first boot
[16:15] <dutchuss2016> and adding 1920x1080 to vga one did not seem to work i didnt get a confirm after running all three commands and i dont see 11920x1080 in my  display settings
[16:17] <lordievader> Just adding the mode does not activate it.
[16:18] <dutchuss2016> sudo xrandr --newmode "1920x1080_60.00" 173.00 1920 2048 2248 2576 1080 1083 1088 1120 -hsync +vsync  is this comand typed right on the guide
[16:18] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: Yes?
[16:18] <dutchuss2016> with the underscore
[16:19] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: xrandr --output VGA1 --mode <mode-name>
[16:19] <lordievader> ^ sets the output.
[16:20] <dutchuss2016> 1920x1080_60.00   60.0  i asked that because using that and then checking sudo xrandr returned this exact as a new res
[16:20] <dutchuss2016> http://paste.ubuntu.com/7240303/ heres the list  ov vga 1s available resoluutions you tell me what looks wrong with this
[16:21]  * lordievader goes to make some food
[16:21] <lordievader> Looks fine to me.
[16:21] <dutchuss2016> looks liek the _60 is unneeded
[16:22] <dutchuss2016> or are you not seeing that slight difference compared to the rest
[16:23] <dutchuss2016> is there a command i can use to have vga 1 test a res for like 30 seconds
[16:24] <om> I have a Western Digital Elements drive NTFS formatted that won't show up in the device notifier when plugged in. Mounting manually works fine though. Any ideas what could cause this?
[16:27] <dutchuss2016> doees the drive work roperly on windows?
[16:29] <om> dutchuss2016: Yes, no problem.
[16:30] <dutchuss2016> is there a way to test a mode to make sure it works on my tv
[16:31] <dutchuss2016> so that im not blind trying to set it back
[16:32] <dutchuss2016> om does the drive spin up when its conneected
[16:35] <om> dutchuss2016: Yes, it does. dmesg also show that it's connected and available as /dev/sdb. When mounted manually, no errors are shown and the contents are accessible. When I insert another disk, it is detected properly.
[16:36] <dutchuss2016> hmmm intresting other usb  devices auto mount  no problem
[16:37] <om> Yup, it just hates that particular disk.
[16:38] <dutchuss2016> what error are you getting when you  try to browse the disk without manually mounting it
[16:40] <om> dutchuss2016: I can't browse it, because it's not mounted and doesn't show up in the device notifier, so also no errors.
[16:41] <dutchuss2016> does it show up in dolphin
[16:41] <dutchuss2016> before you mount it
[16:42] <dutchuss2016> before you mount it "newlyy connected"
[16:43] <om> dutchuss2016: Nope. Also not after I mount it.
[16:44] <dutchuss2016> do you have access to a windows machine
[16:45] <om> dutchuss2016: Yes, I do. It's dual-boot.
[16:45] <dutchuss2016> are you  in windows right now or kubutu
[16:46] <om> dutchuss2016: In Kubuntu.
[16:48] <dutchuss2016> hmm can you  boot windows and chkdisk that drive and let me know if any errors come up
[16:49] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: You could write a script that tests a mode and then sets it to auto afterwards.
[16:51] <om> dutchuss2016: I'm afraid I don't have the time for that right now. Have to go soon ;)
[16:52] <lordievader> om: Don't think it will help. If manually mounting works the disk is fine.
[17:00] <dutchuss2016> ok i found my problem
[17:00] <dutchuss2016> how do i add 1200x900
[17:01] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: Same procedure, but why do you want to add 1280x900?
[17:08] <dutchuss2016> because my vga inut on my tv dont support 1920x1080
[17:08] <dutchuss2016> i found that out by hooking up a windows based computerr and trying to use 1920x1080
[17:09] <dutchuss2016> now that ive added it and set it and my screen is set up right now do i make sure i dont have to do it again
[17:09] <dutchuss2016> how do i make iit perminant
[17:10] <dutchuss2016> om are you here
[17:10] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: I dont't know how to make it permanent, but you could simply use an xinit script to at it during login.
[17:11] <om> om: Yes, I'm still here.
[17:11] <dutchuss2016> and how do i do that
[17:11] <dutchuss2016> did you chkdisk your drive on windowws
[17:11] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: Put the commands in ~/.xinit
[17:11] <dutchuss2016> wwhere do i find that
[17:11] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: That will not fix om's problem.
[17:12] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: ~ refers to your home dir.
[17:13] <dutchuss2016> how do i take a screenshot i dont  se xinit in my home directory
[17:14] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: It doesn't exist by default.
[17:14] <dutchuss2016> ugh
[17:23] <dutchuss2016> ugh if i give you the paramiters of my settings can you generate a script for me
[17:24] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: Just put the commands you would use to add and activate the mode in the xinit script.
[17:25] <dutchuss2016> how do i make an  xinit script
[17:25] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: kate ~/.xinit
[17:25] <lordievader> Put your commands in, save and you're done.
[17:26] <dutchuss2016> kate?
[17:26] <dutchuss2016> wtf is kate
[17:26] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: kate is the default KDE editor.
[17:29] <dutchuss2016> oh i see not used to a text editorr having a girls name LOL
[17:29] <dutchuss2016> SO SAVE THE FILE AS RUN.XNIT OR
[17:29] <dutchuss2016> damn caps lock
[17:30] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: No the filename should be '.xinit' (without the quotes of course) and should be located in your home dir (~/).
[17:31] <dutchuss2016> um one roblem
[17:32] <dutchuss2016> itts gonna want my password because i used sudo  xrandr
[17:32] <lordievader> xrandr doesn't need sudo.
[17:32] <lordievader> You want to change the setting of your own session, not someone else's.
[17:33] <dutchuss2016> my seeions are the only ones ever going to be on this computer
[17:33] <dutchuss2016> id like this file to run beforei even login if thats possable
[17:34] <dutchuss2016> !paste
[17:34] <dutchuss2016> http://paste.ubuntu.com/7240645/
[17:34] <dutchuss2016> the file will look like that
[17:37] <dutchuss2016> is  that  right
[17:40] <dutchuss2016> ok i have a wworking xinit file but my login screen is still 1024x768 hence why  i  would like it to run before i login and be erminant
[17:42] <dutchuss2016> and any suggestions for aa media plaayer like itunes that i can store a library in
[17:47] <dutchuss2016> what is kbuntus equivalent of softwarre centere
[17:53] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: As I've said no need for the sudo's.
[17:53] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: Muon is Kubuntu's equivalent.
[17:53] <dutchuss2016> moon package m\manager
[17:54] <lordievader> Muon*
[17:56] <dutchuss2016> is there a way i can put icons on the desktop so idont have to go to the kickoff button all the time
[17:59] <dutchuss2016> is  there a reccamended media plaer that i can put my music in a library with i dont care if it looks fnaacy just as long as it plays my music
[17:59] <dutchuss2016> and i have 400 thousand songs
[18:02] <rudydog>  right click it add it to desktop or panel
[18:05] <dutchuss2016> i love how ubuntu is runing  on this computer 1000 times better than windows ever did
[18:22] <dutchuss2016> can some one lease explain the term hardlink whaat happens to the phisical second copy  of a "hardlinked"file
[18:23] <DarthFrog> dutchuss2016: The hard link means that there is no physical second copy.
[18:24] <dutchuss2016> so when i create a hardlink on 2 files that botth do exist one gets deleted
[18:24] <DarthFrog> I don't know what you mean by "a hardlink on 2 files".  You have 2 links to one file in a hard link.
[18:24] <tsimpson> a symbolic link is just a special kind of file which contains the path to the linked to file, a hard link on the other hand is one that simply refers to the same underlying reference in the file system
[18:24] <dutchuss2016> my music for instance is littered with exact replicas
[18:25] <DarthFrog> If you delete one of the links, you only delete that inode.  The other is untouched.
[18:25] <tsimpson> deleting a hard link just removes one of the references, only when all references are removed is the actual file marked as deleted
[18:25] <DarthFrog> dutchuss2016:  Copies of files are not hard links.
[18:25] <dutchuss2016> i wanna condence my 400 gbs  of music  know that
[18:26] <DarthFrog> dutchuss2016:  Removing hard links will not free up any disk space.  Only inodes.
[18:26] <dutchuss2016> i know that but what im saying is if i run a program like duemerger that hardlinks 2 exact files what haappens to the seecond file
[18:27] <DarthFrog> Please lose the idea that hard links mean copies of files.  It's one and the same file.
[18:27] <DarthFrog> There is no second file.
[18:27] <DarthFrog> It's the same file with a different name/location.
[18:28] <DarthFrog> So if you delete the second link, nothing happens to the file.
[18:28] <DarthFrog> If you delete the last link to the file, the file is deleted.
[18:29] <dutchuss2016> Filesystems often contain identical copies of files. Unix filesystems can reduce storage space required by such redundancy by replacing these identical copies with hard-links to a single file.
[18:29] <dutchuss2016> Here are four scripts which all do more or less the same thing: scan a filesystem for identical files and replace them with hardlinks to the same file. explain this
[18:29] <DarthFrog> That makes sense.
[18:30] <DarthFrog> What it's saying is that if it finds dupes, it replaces a dupe with a hard link, thus deleting the dupe on disk and retaining only one copy.
[18:31] <dutchuss2016> thats what i was trying to find out thank you so what i was saying is the identical file gets deleted i win
[18:31] <DarthFrog> does that make sense to you?
[18:31] <DarthFrog> Yeah, you win.  :-)  It's a win-win.
[18:32] <DarthFrog> So you will free up disk space.
[18:32] <dutchuss2016> is there somethign for linux that will just delete the duplicate file without hardlinking (i only plan on running it for my media library of 400 gigs of music
[18:32] <OerHeks> DarthFrog, what happens when you upgrade that package/file?
[18:33] <DarthFrog> OerHeks: the file on disk will be changed to the upgraded version and all hard links to that file will see the upgraded version.
[18:34] <DarthFrog> dutchuss2016: I would imagine that here are lots of dupe deleters but I don't have any knowledge/experience with them.
[18:34] <dutchuss2016> and once i finish running a program to delete dupes i need to drefrag my hard drive NTFS
[18:34] <DarthFrog> Do that in Windows.
[18:35] <dutchuss2016> impossable to do in windows  no longer have windows
[18:35] <dutchuss2016> not removing the hard drive drom the comuter to put in a windows based machine
[18:35] <DarthFrog> then why NTFS??
[18:36] <DarthFrog> Do yourself a favour and move to ext4, an extent-based file system.
[18:36] <dutchuss2016> secondary drive main drive not big enough to move the music
[18:36] <dutchuss2016> dont really wanna redownlooad 400 gigs of music
[18:37] <DarthFrog> Urk, no.  Don't do that.
[18:37] <DarthFrog> Copy it to a backup drive instead.
[18:37] <dutchuss2016> thats why i need to find a dupe deleterr
[18:37] <dutchuss2016> dont have an external big enough
[18:37] <OerHeks> sounds important music to me, you really should make a backup
[18:37] <DarthFrog> Drives are cheap.  So is a home NAS device.
[18:37] <dutchuss2016> wanna clean up my library with  as little hassle as ossable
[18:37] <OerHeks> put a drive on your wishlist
[18:38] <DarthFrog> Any dupe deleter will carry the risk of deleting all your files if you encounter a bug. :-)  Backups are more than a good idea.
[18:38] <dutchuss2016> my secondary drive is in a 3 mirror raid system
[18:39] <DarthFrog> dutchuss2016:  Up to you.
[18:39] <dutchuss2016> trust me i know how important is to baackup
[18:39] <DarthFrog> You will however get zero sympathy when the inevitable happens. :-)
[18:40] <dutchuss2016> my  drive is raid controlled and i have a clone of my music on another computer if i absolutly must have it
[18:40] <dutchuss2016> plus a copy at my moms house that i update frequently
[18:41] <dutchuss2016> aand as the last resort failsafe i have a 1 tb cloud service
[18:41] <DarthFrog> Then you're covered.  So convert to ext4.
[18:41] <dutchuss2016> that all myy music is on
[18:41] <dutchuss2016> plan on it after clearing out my dupes
[18:42] <dutchuss2016> ....screams at his computer to play ore music " didnt say you could stop playing 3 doors down bitch" (kbuntus default player  ran out of ssongs to play)
[18:43] <dutchuss2016> *runs off to que more music
[18:44] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: Can you watch your language.
[18:45] <dutchuss2016> *now playing  creed human clay album* all i have is discograhies thaat how i know i have dulicattes
[18:47] <DarthFrog> dutchuss2016:  We'd like to keep this channel family-friendly.
[18:50] <dutchuss2016> grr gotta restart again i found one called flint that has a gui for future refrence ill be back after the restart because i will need help converting filesystems on my secondary after i  clean my "lint " as flint calls it
[18:53] <dutchuss2016> ok now i have a problem
[18:54] <dutchuss2016> my computer restartted and the file we created earlierr and saved to my home directory is gone
[18:55] <OerHeks> sure?
[18:56] <dutchuss2016> yea my dislay resolution is 1024x768  again
[18:56] <OerHeks> hit ctrl + . in the filebrowser, that toggles hidden files
[18:56] <dutchuss2016> and im looking  in my home directory and thatt ile and 3 otherr folders i created are gone
[18:56] <OerHeks> a . in front of a filename means hidden
[18:57] <dutchuss2016> how do i tak a screen shot
[18:58] <dutchuss2016> wherre can i pastte pix
[18:58] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: Can you pastebin the output of "ls -la ~"?
[18:59] <DarthFrog> lordievader:  You might want to add "d" to that. :-)
[18:59] <dutchuss2016> give me the whole command
[18:59] <OerHeks> install ksnapshot, or it is installed default
[19:00] <dutchuss2016> where can i put a icture i already figured out screenshots
[19:00] <DarthFrog> !pastebin
[19:01] <lordievader> DarthFrog: ls -lad? What does the d do? (Can't find it in the man page)
[19:01] <DarthFrog> Give directory names only, not contents.
[19:01] <lordievader> DarthFrog: I want to see if .xinit exists...
[19:02] <dutchuss2016> http://imagebin.org/305227
[19:02] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: Can you give the output please?
[19:02] <DarthFrog> lordievader: It has no effect on regular files.  Only on directories.  If you don't specify "d", you'll also get a dump of the directory contents which can spam your screen.
[19:03] <OerHeks> no, files not gone, you haven't hit ctrl + .
[19:03] <dutchuss2016> whats the comand ls -lad is retuening no  output
[19:03] <lordievader> DarthFrog: ls isn't recursive by default.
[19:04] <lordievader> DarthFrog: Here ls -dla just returns . nothing else.
[19:04] <DarthFrog> lordievader:  No, but once you add "l", it is.
[19:04] <OerHeks> err alt + .
[19:04] <lordievader> DarthFrog: No, l is for long not recursive.
[19:04] <lordievader> DarthFrog: Here it ain't recursive with -l anyhow.
[19:05] <dutchuss2016> http://paste.ubuntu.com/7241010/
[19:05] <DarthFrog> Hmm.
[19:05] <lordievader> ^ that.
[19:06] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: Could you do it again without the -d.
[19:06] <DarthFrog> He's not giving a file pattern to match.
[19:07] <dutchuss2016> http://paste.ubuntu.com/7241020/
[19:08] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: Hmm, indeed there is no .xinit. Are you sure you saved it in your home directory?
[19:08] <dutchuss2016> how do i aaccess the session errors file
[19:08] <dutchuss2016> yyes
[19:09] <lordievader> Hmm, odd. I'd say recreate it, verify that it's there and see if it dissapears again after a reboot.
[19:09] <dutchuss2016> is there a way to make it read-only  so it cant be deleted
[19:10] <dutchuss2016> and i wanna see what  the session errors file says
[19:10] <lordievader> "cat ~/.xsession-errors" to read it. Probably not going to contain anything usefull. But the system shouldn't delete the file.
[19:12] <dutchuss2016> Script for cjkv started at run_im.
[19:12] <dutchuss2016> Script for default started at run_im.
[19:12] <dutchuss2016> this is all that in the  session errors file
[19:19] <dutchuss2016> what  do i name the file again
[19:19] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: .xinit in the home directory
[19:24] <dutchuss2016> http://imagebin.org/305232 heres the 4 screens containg the recreation process of the filee
[19:24] <dutchuss2016> do i dare restart
[19:26] <dutchuss2016> i have the file backed up on my secondary drive incase i lose it again
[19:29] <dutchuss2016> do i dare restart
[19:41] <dutchuss2016> do you guys want me to restart
[19:42] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: Yes, I'd like to see if it dissapears again ;)
[19:47] <dutchuss2016> ok ill be back
[19:48] <dutchuss2016> i made a backup in 5 places juust incase i dont wanna have to remake it

[19:57] <dutchuss2016> if it had run my screen res would be 1200x900
[19:58] <lordievader> dutchuss2016: What happens when you test the script?
[19:58] <dutchuss2016> not 1024x768
[19:59] <dutchuss2016> the file has 3 lines
[19:59] <dutchuss2016> a cvt command and to xraandr commands
[20:00] <dutchuss2016> how do i test the scrript
[20:01] <dutchuss2016> wait  its missing a command oops
