<0> mmm another question...if i copy a dir with subdirs can i change permissions with chmod to all files, subdirs and sub files with 1 command? without go in every subdir?
<1> paradizelost: but it's enough for me - about 21 G / month
<1> paradizelost: I'll need a new HDD ;)
<2> sparkling: that's what the -Rf of the chmod command is for
<2> R is recurse and f is force
<2> !cp
<3> paradizelost: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<0> ok thanks :D i've tried with only -R but didn't work
<4> thoreauputic_: ha! you've leapfrogged me - i'm on 5Gb/moth (with ulimited offpeak 00:00-07:00)
<5> FF keeps dieing on me
<5> nvm
<5> probably cuase i'm upgrding the system
<1> bimberi: I have 7 G peak, 14 off peak - but off-peak is midnight to noon ( odd idea from Optus)
<2> !cp
<1> bimberi: unlimited off-peak would be nice...
<6> hello



<6> anyone here?
<2> cjp: nope.
<2> !ask
<3> Just ask. Questions in the channel should be specific, informative, complete, concise and on-topic. Information like hardware make, model and output of commands that you used pasted onto http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org is important.
<1> cjp: no, you'rw all alone
<1> :)
<4> cjp: Boo! :)
<6> :)
<2> *
<2> ***
<2> bah
<2> paradizelost: wishes he had more beer.
<2> bah
<6> .....
<2> thoreauputic_: how the heck do ya do the *** thing?
<1> paradizelost: /me does something
<2> ahhh..
<6> I just installed ubuntu
<7> hmmm
<7> that is very odd
<1> cjp: welcome !
<7> I can't get alltray -x to work
<6> :D
<2> cjp: my first recommendation for you.
<2> !google
<7> keeps telling me segmentation fault whenever I try to use alltray in a terminal window
<3> it has been said that google is a very popular internet search engine at http://www.google.com - They also run Gmail at http://www.gmail.com as a free E-mail service.
<2> :D
<1> _JECKEL_: install fluxbox and you can just make a key combo for borderless :)
<7> I have fluxbox
<8> !network
<3> This refers to a group of interconnected computers. The computers must be capable of transferring data to form a true network--you can't just weld a bunch of computers together.
<0> good night all cya and thanks for help
<7> what I don't like about fluxbox is all the **** I have to go through just to set it up the way I want
<2> sparkling: nite
<1> _JECKEL_: well, set your keys file
<1> _JECKEL_: hmm - not a lot really
<7> I'm trying to do this without using fluxbox. @.@
<7> yes..really. Besides...I really get tired of not having icons to use
<2> _JECKEL_: use bbicons
<2> :D
<2> _JECKEL_: may need blackbox for that though
<1> _JECKEL_: ah - we differ: I don't like icons ;-)
<7> doing everything through the terminal window gets a bit annoying
<9> merriam, I like a cluttered desktop. It's so like my real life :)
<1> _JECKEL_: umm - just edit the menu - takes a few seconds in an editor
<10> hey
<9> dorel_, me. tab completion trips me again
<10> I am french
<2> !fr
<3> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
<10> and I don't speak english very well
<10> I have wrote an article
<10> can you tell me if you understand it ?
<2> pti-seb: send a link
<10> http://www.tux-planet.fr/blog/?2006/05/12/78-convertion-de-fichiers-wma-en-mp3-convert-wma-files-to-mp3
<10> the english part is after the french part
<10> :-)
<2> pti-seb: site not loading



<2> or VERY slow
<10> you can see this article also by the fedora-people
<7> how does fedora measure up to ubuntu btw?
<2> pti-seb: ubuntu better.
<2> !fedora
<3> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, paradizelost
<1> _JECKEL_: I have a menu entry "manu editor" that opens the menu in my favourite editor
<1> s/manu/menu
<9> pti-seb, to start with, ubuntu doesn't use yum :)
<10> I say
<10> the article is availible to this link : http://fedoraproject.org/people/
<7> ehhh
<2> pti-seb: is there a reason you don't have the script do subdirs?
<10> s/yum/apt-get/g
<7> fine I'll switch over to fluxbox. @.@
<2> pti-seb: ahh, it's a bash script
<10> paradizelost, no reason
<2> if you do it in perl it can do subdirs.
<2> :D
<2> easily
<10> I don't like perl, sorry
<10> you understand my english article ????
<11> hello everyone, i'm new and have a question
<12> ah shucks...ran out of lime soda
<1> !ask
<3> Just ask. Questions in the channel should be specific, informative, complete, concise and on-topic. Information like hardware make, model and output of commands that you used pasted onto http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org is important.
<2> pti-seb: it's understandable, i understand the code better than the article
<11> i installed ubuntu hoary from an ISO i burned a few months back
<2> Protocol1: replace it with beer next time
<11> is upgrading to breezy important?
<2> orbish: upgrade to breezy or dapper....
<1> orbish: yes, hoary is getting pretty old now
<10> paradizelost, ok
<11> what's the best way of going about that
<12> paradizelost, sorry been clean for nine months aint going back
<13> orbish: it is important, but perhaps you could move to dapper instead...
<2> pti-seb: but that's because i nitpick minor english misusings
<2> !upgrade
<2> !tell orbish about upgrade
<1> orbish: if you want dapper you would need to use a CD unless you want to do two upgrades
<11> sigh, i was hoping for a command of some sort
<2> Protocol1: you do know that beer is healthier than pop right? except for the following drunkenness
<1> orbish: change your sources from hoary to breezy, update, then run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
<2> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade
<2> then
<14> hi! is there a command to kill all processes of a specific user?
<15> !xgl
<3> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/XglHowto - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. It works ONLY on dapper. Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/
<1> orbish: the URL paradizelost gave tells you about it
<2> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades\
<2> minus the \
<11> thanks, i'm looking into it now
<1> :)
<12> paradizelost, yeah....but water or juice will have to do
<16> coffee
<2> hey, can anyone think of a downside to using carpet cleaner that has a coupon on it that expires 1/31/86?
<2> my grandpa gave me a can that was under his sink....
<2> i know offtopic.
<13> paradizelost: 86?????
<2> yep
<2> it's older than my little brother.
<17> I just looked at whatever I installed using the repos and I see that it is a hell of a lot.. are any of them recursive or something?
<18> Is it common to put your home folder in a separate partition?
<2> steveire: usually, yes i do
<4> steveire: yes
<2> idefix: what did you install?
<19> steveire: absoluteley.
<17> paradizelost, well I'm sure I didn't select so many (1135)
<18> And you do that manually? it's common to have a separate boot partition too?
<2> steveire: prevents you from losing your data when you have to format
<1> idefix: those are the dependencies, libraries etc
<2> steveire: you can do it w/ the installer
