Comments:
<0> i'm gnna download a bunch of howtos and read em tommorrow while im waiting for a load
<1> Madpilot: from were i get that ?
<2> Auckland_Pig, unless you chroot the user to a folder that is masked to prevent executable files
<3> Auckland_Pig: and on his own copy, he can set the permissions ha wants
<4> !tell ignacio_ about themes
<5> could someone help me with ipforwarding stuff? I already have: sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_foward=1 done. I have wireless laptop (that I'm on now) 10.10.0.9 [eth0] I have eth1 on said laptop I'm hooked up to a hub. want to plug desktop into same hub and be able to be on the same network.
<4> hi AdventChild
<6> Auckland_Pig if they can read they can make their own copies. but you don't need read to exec.
<0> is there a faster less resource using windows manager than gnome?
<3> DBO: ah... yes... tricky :9
<3> :)
<7> TruckerMan, several
<4> TruckerMan, there's several - XFCE seems pretty complete but lighter
<2> nil, yes it is, and only useful for SSH environments
<7> TruckerMan, blackbox and fluxbox are probably the most popular
<8> I win, fear my ctrl alt esc power
<9> TruckerMan: Xfce4 is the compromise between Gnome and the sparse Fluxbox (I prefer Flux, but the latest Xfce4 is really nice)
<3> DBO: you mean for things liken rssh ?
<10> oh thanks everyone.... me am new to linux and trying to learn about these things....
<7> TruckerMan, the "boxes" are quite similar to each other; people seem to feel fluxbox is a bit better, but I haven't used them enough myself to have a preference for one box over the other
<11> is thoreauputic here?
<3> Auckland_Pig: so, basically, the answer is no
<12> hi i just open a link to listen to an internet radio it only say playing but no sounds? any idea why, and how to works?
<13> AdventChild: sort of, why?
<9> sethk: also Openbox - they had a new release pretty recently
<1> madpilot: thanks im gonna try it..:S
<10> thnks nil
<7> fak3r, didn't know about that one. I'll have to try it.
<10> *thanks
<14> alright...i got NetworkManager to work
<15> TruckerMan: if you use your touchpad a lot, fluxbox is a real pain to use b/c it's heavily menu-driven
<2> nil, yes
<11> thoreauputic, just wondering... w***up? i have to run this on my *gag* win2k box... :(
<7> fak3r, is it in synaptic?
<16> I hate ubuntu..its too complicated for me
<9> sethk: also I run Blackbox at work...on my XP laptop. No choice on the OS, but Blackbox helps
<1> madpilot: ill try
<4> ignacio_, my favourite themes site is gnome-look.org - have a look there
<16> im switching to windows
<11> !lart Christopher
<8> Christopher: your welcome for the help
<13> AdventChild: oh - sorry kind of busy elsewhere ATM
<9> sethk: yep, also try obconf -- a configuration editor for it. comes with some nice stock themes
<16> thanks
<3> Christopher: if you insist, you may enjoy it soon
<11> np
<7> fak3r, interesting. I usually run an X server on the pc, but I do almost all my work on one NIX or another
<12> hi i just open a link to listen to an internet radio it only say playing but no sounds? any idea why, and how to works?
<6> TruckerMan twm is installed with xorg but you wont like it. fvwm xfce4 are good. you might like them fluxbox .... lots of gui crap. but you could just remove xorg and go comando CLI :)
<0> ok, Now if i change windows manager, will that affect my hardware settings and what not? for instance, my wireless card, took some time getting it to work.
<2> Christopher, linux is not for everyone, best of luck with windows
<16> take care everyone...thanks for all of the support
<8> Christopher: might want to try a little OSX too
<3> Christopher: think about how many years it took to learn to use Windows like you know it now
<8> Christopher: I hear thats pretty good if you are in love with your mouse ;)
<1> madpilot:> thanks! i going to visit
<16> :)
<9> sethk: yep, I have X running on it too, but most of the time I just run Blackbox and then Putty into the servers...but yeah, running X you can get xterm going - nicer than cygwin
<3> Christopher: it's a matter of habits
<12> hi
<16> ah
<4> TruckerMan, most of your hardware settings should be OK
<16> its that the only problem I have is installing applications
<7> fak3r, definitely. is obconf just for openbox, or for any of the 'boxes?
<9> Anyone want to talk about MacIntel Minis and graphic drivers? (or other drivers) for Ubuntu?
<17> ubotu: tell Christopher about synaptic
<9> sethk think it's just for open
<0> Thats another thing i've been wondering about, How can i start ubuntu in command line without loading a window manager first?
<16> no matter how many faq's i look at i cant figure it out
<7> fak3r, ok, thanks.
<17> Christopher: synaptic is easier than windows imo
<8> Christopher: quite the contrary for me, it is SO easy for me, my favorite part of linux
<2> TruckerMan, you have to set your default runlevel to 1
<1> madpilot: from there i download the themes and i install it in system/preferences/themes?
<12> like me i'm a newbie lots of problems ecounter in this Linux but still i like because i learn different...
<18> TruckerMan, you add the init 1 to the boot line
<6> Christopher don't let them trap you. run ! run back to M$ while you still can. cause if you stay in linux very long you can never go back.
<7> Christopher, specifically, what do you run into trouble with?
<8> Christopher: everything is in the repos just waiting for me... just need to type apt-get install somefile and its there, all set up
<12> hi i just open a link to listen to an internet radio it only say playing but no sounds? any idea why, and how to works?
<0> init 1 to boot line hmm
<8> touches something special inside of me..
<0> ok
<0> i'll check that out
<16> nickgarver: really
<0> apreciate it channel, i got some new stuff to look into
<0> thanks
<13> !tell Christopher about repos
<6> TruckerMan init is not needed. just 1
<3> Christopher: maybe the only problem is to kfind which software you need
<12> any idea why i can't listen to internet radios?
<0> runlevel 1 gotcha
<3> OrTigaS: firewall?
<8> Christopher: well my second favorite thing is the easy install, the wonderful and loving community is my favorite such as the good people in #ubuntu
<16> im trying to install firefox(which ive tried 10003402 times)
<8> !hug
<19> nickgarvey: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<2> and for looping fun, set your default runlevel to 6 (dont really do this, please)
<12> nil no
<8> !ff1.5
<19> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
<8> !bot snack
<19> :)
<12> its open
<16> yes they are good people
<13> Christopher: it's already installed ...
<9> nil: does sound work at all? Sometimes it's just muted
<3> OrTigaS: which soft do you use?
<13> Christopher: you mean FF 1.5?
<3> fak3r: it's for OrTigaS, not for me :)
<20> need help xine
<21> _jason you still there?
<9> nil: :)
<8> !tell aajaj about xine
<12> nil, already installes mplayer. mozilla-,player
<9> OrTigaS: does sound work at all, sometimes it's just muted
<20> i get this error: couldn't find demux for >stdin://mpeg2<
<3> OrTigaS: did you try a simple mp3 streaming bradio on xmms?
<16> yes
<16> ff 1.5
<3> !tell me about you
<12> fak3r, i tried the CNN video news and the wimp its all working
<12> its only the AM/FM radio i tried now and its not working
<9> OrTigaS: ok, what app isn't playing the stream?
<20> anyone?
<6> !vlc
<19> hmm... vlc is a video/audio player that supports almost everything - See http://www.videolan.org/ for more information (VLC is in the repos)
<16> I dont knoe
<16> *know
<14> vlc is awesome
<12> any idea
<22> i second that, for vlc
<16> Im not sure whether or not I should switch to windows, use another distrobution, or stay with ubuntu
<6> i don't know about awesome.... but it's some awe.
<3> Christopher: when did you start ubuntu?
<16> a day or two ago
<16> im a n00b
<12> Christopher, I tried almost 7 distros and this Ubuntu works like a charm with me :)
<6> Christopher go to windows. go while you can.
<8> Christopher: much to learn my friend, you didn't learn windows in a day either
<3> Christopher: I suggest to try a little more
<16> true
<6> Christopher i'm telling you linux is addictive.
<2> Christopher, meh, the main reason to learn linux is so you can be superior to all those windows losers
<16> yeah
<12> ei about my Q :)
<23> madpilot:> the GDM themes can be dowload for ubuntu ?
<16> that one of the reasons i switched to ubuntu
<3> Christopher: and keep both Windows and ubuntu on the computer, even if you want to go back to windows
<0> is XFCE sposed to be installable thru synaptic?
<16> nah
Return to
#ubuntu
or
Go to some related
