delt | Hello | 01:27 |

delt | It's actually just a modified version of Greybird, with osx titlebar buttons and a thicker lower-window border. Any screenshots of this on your system would be VERY appreciated ---> www.deimos.ca/miscjunk/greybird-mac.tar.gz | 01:29 |
delt | uh.... i mean http://www.deimos.ca/miscjunk/greybird-mac.tar.gz | 01:30 |
delt | untar to your /usr/share/themes, select in the window manager control panel, and take a screenshot :D :D | 01:31 |

kasad | aloha | 01:52 |
kasad | so, doing favour to a friend, who needs old machine "renewed" and adapted so his mother can follor something online | 01:52 |
kasad | they have 200 gig ntfs data partition | 01:52 |
kasad | I have 55 gig free | 01:53 |
kasad | what partition scheme do you recommend for xubuntu for those 55 gig | 01:53 |
kasad | double the ram for /swap and rest / | 01:53 |
kasad | is that ok? | 01:53 |
kasad | and should I use ext4 for / | 01:53 |
kasad | also should I maybe separate /home to diff partition? | 01:54 |
wolf1 | i would recommend a separate /home partition kasad and i would use ext4 | 01:55 |
bazhang | ext4 is really de rigeur for / | 01:57 |
bazhang | perhaps you were thinking of /boot | 01:57 |
kasad | de rigeur? | 01:58 |
kasad | so separate /boot / and /home | 01:58 |
bazhang | de rigeur = a must | 02:00 |
bazhang | /boot is optional, but better not to use btrfs for that | 02:00 |
delt | kasad: for swap, at least the amount of ram you have, maybe more depending what you want to do. | 02:07 |
delt | kasad: and yeah, a small primary partition for /boot, otherwise your system won't be able to boot on some motherboard/bios setups.... 1 or 2 GB should be enough for /boot | 02:08 |
delt | the rest you can simply leave for / ....unless you have some fancy configuration with several hard disks or something | 02:09 |
delt | if you want to install across, say 2 harddisks/partitions, personally i'd put the smaller one as / and the larger one as /home | 02:16 |

sunsetjessie | I need wallpaper help. How do I changwe the wallpaper? when I try to change to my own image the files are disabled. | 13:45 |
brainwash | sunsetjessie: can you please rephrase your question? what do you try exactly? which files are disabled? | 13:51 |
brainwash | maybe even upload a screenshot | 13:51 |
sunsetjessie | I can change the background to one of the default files. but, if I change folders to say the download folder where I have some images downloaded the jpg files are disabled. | 14:04 |
brainwash | sunsetjessie: how are they disabled? | 14:05 |
brainwash | did you test different image types? | 14:06 |
=== SonikkuAmerica_ is now known as SonikkuAmerica | ||
brainwash | an alternative approach would be to right click on the file in the file manager and set it as wallpaper | 14:07 |
sunsetjessie | llet me try that | 14:08 |
brainwash | your problem does seem to be a common one. I've only heard about missing preview pictures in the desktop settings window | 14:09 |
sunsetjessie | the right click idea worked, thanks Brainwash | 14:11 |
brainwash | great :) | 14:11 |
