<0> cwillu, i told him he probably was going to have to write some code to do that, if it's even do-able on a widescale basis
<1> mugzie: open up a terminal and type 'sudo apt-get install xubutu-desktop'
<2> cwillu: for some reason gedit takes 10 secs to start when it's not running
<3> hi paradizelost ;)
<4> mugzie: the package is xubuntu-desktop
<5> mugzie, and make sure you have universe repositories enabled.
<1> close synaptic first tho :)
<0> engla, vim loads for me in less than 1.0s :)
<6> ya, I'm not sure you can generalize it really, other than possible prefetching into the cache
<1> oh, man i am bad
<7> engla: if you want that for all apps, add some more RAM to your comp and maybe get a faster processor
<8> brb ill try that
<0> cwillu, win-netscape had that feature in 7.x and they removed it in 8.0
<2> RandolphCarter: ram should not be an issue. A warm start of gedit is still 4 secs, while if gedit is running, a new doc opens in <1s
<9> gujhadgjiaYDSTGIAKWF
<10> :-D



<8> again im sorry if i sound stupid im new and im interested
<11> anyone notice bad battery performance after these last set off updates?
<0> cwillu, engla, it *was* a nice feature... but FF 1.5 launches in less than 1s on my box
<10> i am back!
<9> ME GUSTAS
<7> engla: yes, of course, it just opens a new window, not a new process
<12> amanda: english
<0> engla, i'll say again: use vim :)
<12> ompaul: i was getting there lol
<1> mugzie: sorry i forgot about universe repos: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/AddingRepositoriesHowto
<7> engla: time to load application < time to open new window
<2> RandolphCarter: right. And my discussion is all about that
<10> anyone in here have an nVidia GeForce 7300GS?
<13> Hey
<2> RandolphCarter: I want to force gedit (even if it does not provide that itself) to act like the oo2preloader or galeon --server etc, always keep a process open in the background
<14> !es
<15> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
<6> r0xoR: let's pretend for a minute that ubuntu is a distro for normal people (it's a stretch, I know :p)
<13> What is the command to configure your Xserver?
<16> sorry to mention politics, but anyone in USA should read the main story on CNN.com
<0> cwillu, oohhh, right lol :P
<14> paradizelost, and there we leave politics
<2> r0xoR: I don't want vim.
<0> awww, c'mon, sure ya do :)
<13> xconf?
<0> engla, i hear scite and jedit are nice... have you tried nedit?
<13> or something like that.
<6> paradizelost: if that's about the nsa stuff, that's at least 4 months old
<0> engla, there's gotta be something that launches faster than gEdit
<0> oooh ooh!, i know!..... pico!
<2> I've seen nedit. gedit is great, it has _snippets_ :)
<7> engla: I don't think they're going to add that to gedit because, well, it starts in under a second here
<6> although it's cute that they're finally stating it in the mainstream :p
<0> engla, snippets?
<1> mugzie: i understand that because xubuntu isn't part of main ubuntu you need to enable extra repositories. once that's done you can use teminal and 'sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop' to install it :) . and in fact you should be able to install anything else in the universe repository. you enable multiverse (even more stuff!) in the same wat
<2> RandolphCarter: right. But not on my system so I want some problem-solving on that
<17> Can i upgrade from Breezy to Drapper ?
<17> With out reinstalling
<2> I have prelink but that doesn't seem to do any difference
<16> !upgrade
<15> upgrade is probably Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade. Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades . Note command line: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the bleeding edge.
<0> hehehe... drapper
<1> chri[s] yep
<11> chri[s] yes there is a help page on ubuntu for it
<18> isn't there some dpkg or apt magic that will display a package's changelog?
<19> haakonn_: aptitude changelog packagename
<18> _jason: wow, nice, thanks
<2> r0xoR: snippets are tab triggers with placeholders, many editors surely have that. Open gedit and try it (activate the snippets plugin, only in dapper). for example, "main<tab>" could expand into "int main(int argc, char **argv) { .." etc
<13> What is the command to configure your Xserver?
<20> cello_rasp that would be a bad idea :-)
<19> !xorg
<15> xorg is, like, To reconfigure your X server, type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" in a terminal, or check here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto or here http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-83973.html
<1> as it is right now yes XD
<0> engla, ohhh, completion/expansions... vim has that
<0> i know how to type tho, so i don't really need that :P
<8> o man im still confused my head spiining i circles lol ok when i search in the synaptic it doesnt show any im sorry to ask but can someone please explain in baby step ...explain to me as if i was in the 3 rd grade ^_^
<13> Wasn't there a curses based interface?
<13> It was something like xconf or something.
<19> mugzie: did you enable universe?



<0> engla, what do you edit (mostly) ?
<2> r0xoR: it's useful for templates. And typing is boring.
<19> _tcc: it's the command ubotu said
<2> r0xoR: right now, nothing :) Usually I program in python and C, write latex
<8> jason how do i do that ive been searching around for that like i said i only installed yeseterday
<0> ah, k
<19> ubotu: tell mugzie about universe
<19> mugzie: ubotu sent you some information in a private message about enabling universe
<7> engla: if you program in C, write a wrapper for gedit then :)
<17> nice
<21> I'm trying to update on my VGA drivers and in the read me file it states "The user can chech if the run-level is 3 (id:3:initdefault:) in the file /etc/inittab.
<21> If not, please modify it to 3 and restart the computer. " can any
<0> engla, hmmm, and you've never given emacs or vim a try yet?
<2> r0xoR: yeah and then some random note-taking with markdown
<17> Are all upgrades going to be like this ?
<2> r0xoR: I use emacs in the shell. Even emacs takes a while to start, I can't stand that (4secs)
<0> heheh, engla there's a light version of emacs... launches *super* fast
<19> engla: well you're supposed to start emacs once and use it as your OS, try vim
<0> engla, i don't remember the history of it all, it's not lucid, but there's some other company that was working on emacs that came out with a super tiny lightning fast version
<0> engla, yeh... vim > emacs IMO but if you used EITHER instead of something else you'd be making a step up :)
<2> _jason: right. Even emacs is *#@!. I just use it because it has pretty standard keybindings and input system (not like vi)
<0> engla, if you like the emacs key bindings, then there's vimacs
<2> I'll definitely search for a ligher emacs. Right now I have emacs-snapshot from dapper reps
<0> engla, oh and gvim > vim > emacs :)
<16> !offtopic...
<15> parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, paradizelost
<16> !offtopic ....
<15> Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, paradizelost

<16> :D
<16> but apparently i confusled the bot..
<22> how do i use the LAME encoder in Kaudiocreater
<22> ?
<16> !mp3
<15> mp3 is, like, a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats

<23> yes!!
<23> paradizelost: Epson Stylus C64
<16> i hate epson so i'm not familiar w/ the specs on the C64
<23> yeh..I bought it when I had Win..and now I don wont bay another
<23> "do you have the server set up that way for the printer? or does the system think it's printing in letter?" .... diferent?
