<0> Concretesledge: I can help you but I need you to say something back.... :P
<1> Could anyone tell me how much HD space ubuntu takes?
<2> Bambino: linux gives you chooses
<3> Is there any easy way to create filters on Thunderbird (like on Evolution and KMail: right click->filter on->from, or mailing list, or...) ?
<0> warbringer87: partitioning harddisk? I use 15GB plus swap, but 5GB should suffice... I **guess**
<4> warbringer87: 2gigs for a standard install.
<5> I get this error when i tr gkrellm: Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
<5> Xlib: No protocol specified
<5> (gkrellm:17570): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
<0> or that
<6> warbringer87: how much disk space do you have?
<1> 2?
<1> 10 :P
<5> lutra, any idea why i get that warning?
<6> warbringer87: yer fine
<1> its gonna be an experiment :)
<0> Bambino: using su to run programs with GUI?
<7> Bambino: go for conky :)
<0> Bambino: using sudo to run programs with GUI?
<6> warbringer87: you'll like I think
<5> obnibolongo, i am as a root yes? That does not work?
<1> Thanks :)
<0> Bambino: gksudo instead as a user
<8> Bambino> better use gksudo to run GUI apps as root
<6> warbringer87: there's also a 'live CD' if you want to have a look first
<5> PuMpErNiCkLe, hehe ok i will thanks.
<5> obnibolongo, ok thanks
<4> warbringer87: seriously, install takes 2gb.
<5> HymnToLife, exactly what is "gksudo" ? (New to linux=
<2> i like that new gnome temp applet
<9> obnibolongo sorry..
<0> Concretesledge: no problem
<9> obnibolongo what is the command for the locate file
<1> now to switch the hardrives around >8D
<6> warbringer87: boot off live cd and test drive without installing if you want
<8> Bambino> when you want to run a graphical application as root from the terminal, use gksudo
<1> I did boot off live, liked it enough
<2> Bambino: i think gdesklets and superkaramba are very nice looking with lots of eye candy while gkrellm and conky are nice and more minimialistic
<8> eg gksudo gedit
<1> so I came here :)
<9> locate filename or something
<10> HymnToLife: Other then the few pre defined llike those in the "adminstration" folder, why would you want to run any X program as root?
<0> Concretesledge: let me just check what you have. You have a Windows XP connected to the internet and a Ubuntu install inside VMware. You wish to access Internet from you Ubuntu. Am I right?
<5> lutra, thank you sir for ur explanation
<8> djr > edit a configuration file in gedit ?
<5> HymnToLife, thanks! ;)
<9> obnibolongo yes.
<1> How easy is it to set up a master/slave with ubuntu?
<10> HymnToLife: Copy the file to your user Id, edit it ther and then copy it back.
<1> (i haven't ever used any of the flavors of linux)
<11> whats a good .wmv to .avi converting tool?
<0> Concretesledge: nice. AFTER having Ubuntu booted (you've installed it completeley, I guess), on VMware menus check for "Insert VMware tools".. Reply when done
<5> lutra, I installed them all. ;) But i did not get them to my menu.. I need to run them all in terminal?
<9> obnibolongo yes that is what im doing right now, but i need to find vmware-install.pl.. with the search for file in term
<3> Is there any easy way to create filters on Thunderbird (like on Evolution and KMail: right click->filter on->from, or mailing list, or...) ?
<12> sure
<9> for some reason i cant find it doing cd desktop, has to be cd / desktop
<2> Bambino: they should appear in your menu...try killall gnome-panel at the terminal
<9> and that isnt the right one
<13> Pupeno: yeah
<11> whats a good .wmv to .avi converting tool?
<8> [02:00] djr HymnToLife: Copy the file to your user Id, edit it ther and then copy it back. <= it's stupid, why not edit it directly ?
<3> CosmoDad: How ?
<14> greetings
<5> lutra, Ok and now?
<10> HymnToLife: Editing some files directly can get you in real big trouble real fast.
<2> Bambino: did they appear?
<2> Bambino: if not used the menu editor and you can manually enter them in
<14> I have a encrypted string prefixed with four dollar signs, any ideas on where to find somebody who could identify the encryption algorithm? :)
<2> Bambino: it's under accessories
<9> home/concretes/desktop/vmware-tools-distrib/vmware-install.pl
<14> *an
<5> lutra, k thanks, and nope, nothing
<8> djr> only if you're stupid enough to edit config files when you don't know what you're doing
<5> lutra, so the run command will be their name?
<0> Concretesledge: hum? wait
<8> in such cases you at least do a backup
<2> Bambino: it should be
<0> Concretesledge: you have the vmware tools cd "inserted", right?
<13> Pupeno: Extras -> Filters...
<15> backup whats that? ;) lol
<10> HymnToLife: That's way you don't edit them directly
<13> Pupeno: or right-click on any address -> create filter from message...
<0> Concretesledge: type obnibolongo on the beginning of the sentence, so the sentence appears highlighted on my screen, please :)
<9> ok.
<0> Concretesledge: obn TAB will do the trick
<10> HymnToLife: and yes I do run "midnight commander"(mc) as root at times.
<0> Concretesledge: ***uming you're using mIRC or Opera
<9> obnibolongo yes.. im familiar
<8> well, when I have to edit a config file I usually sudo cp /path/to/file /path/to/file.bak and then sudo whatevereditor /path/to/file
<3> CosmoDad: can't it create filters on mailing list ?
<0> Concretesledge: if my connection drops I'll be back in 2 mins
<9> obnibolongo ok, so back to vmware-install.pl , what is the file search command
<8> copying the file in your /home, edit it and copy it back seems to be too much h***le to me
<13> Pupeno: what do you mean by that?
<13> Pupeno: it can create filters based on a lot of conditions
<9> anyone know what the file search command is , in terminal on ubuntu
<3> CosmoDad: Create on List-Id, easily.
<13> Pupeno: I don't know what a List-Id is but I'm sure TB knows about it
<10> HymnToLife: It seemed as h***le to me to until I got use to doing it.
<0> Concretesledge: if your vmware-install is here : home/concretes/desktop/vmware-tools-distrib/vmware-install.pl you did sth wrong. is it here?
<13> Pupeno: I usually filter my mailing lists by labels in the subject
<3> CosmoDad: on Kmail or Evolution it is: Right click->Filter on->Mailing list.
<8> djr > well, everyone do things his own way :)
<13> Pupeno: what's a List-Id?
<3> CosmoDad: that is too unreliable, there's a List-Id header put by most mailing list engines to do filtering.
<9> obnibolongo ok, i have installed the tools and started networking
<9> obnibolongo i figured it out, had to be Desktop, not desktop to cd it
<16> hello
<10> HymnToLife: While experminting with a Linux 0.9.0 level install I once wound up formatting the root partition by accident and won't of been able to itf I hadn't been running as root.
<17> hi
<13> Pupeno: with TB, you can filter on anything that's part of the mail header
<13> Pupeno: I suppose that label-id is within the header
<3> CosmoDad: I know, but the way to create filters for List-Id is like a 10 steps operation... to much for the amount of mailing lists I have.
<16> does kopete support Google Talk?
<11> whats a good .wmv to .avi converting tool?
<8> purple^haze> I doubt there is one
<9> oaimage
<13> purple^haze: I know mencoder can do it but it's not comfortable
<9> obnibolongo hello, are you still there ?
<18> Glyph1: ive not used kopete, but i can only ***ume it supports it indirectly through jabber
<13> Pupeno: it's probably more like 5 steps and there're tons of TB extensions. One might ease the procedure you seek
<19> How do i get 3d support to work? trying to get 3ddesktop to work
<16> yes im trying to use gaim but it didn't connect so im trying kopete perhaps i should try the Kubuntu channel
<17> Glyph1: I believe that the wikipedia article on Google Talk has links for opening Google talk
<16> ok thx
<19> aticonfig: error while loading shared libraries: libfglrx_pp.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

<17> http://tapioca-voip.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Tapioca
<22> eugman: is the ntfs partition currently mounted/
<21> Yes, but under root.
<22> eugman: unmount it
<22> eugman: you should be using a livecd anyway
<23> guys where extract_compressed_fs command come from?
<21> Why is that?
<22> eugman: that way you make sure you don't try to work on mounted stuff :)
