| [10:09] <cody-somerville> shirish, What is a date & timer application? | |
| [10:12] <shirish> cody-somerville: something like what orage does, it gives today's date & time, but don't want the calendar | |
| [10:13] <shirish> cody-somerville: any ideas? | |
| [10:14] <cody-somerville> shirish, There are two panel applets for time & date | |

| [11:46] <zizou03> Hi, is anybody familiar with proFTPd> | |
| [11:46] <meoblast001> hi | |
| [11:46] <zizou03> I have it up and runnig, it works great locally | |
| [11:46] <zizou03> but I can't get it to work by connecting through my ip adres | |
| [11:46] <zizou03> I have both ports 21 and 20 forwarded now | |
| [11:46] <zizou03> but still no luck =( | |
| [11:46] <meoblast001> in the loading aditional components, is it typical for a P2 to take a while on the "Retrieving nic-usb-modules-2.6-24-19-generic-di" section | |
| [11:47] <zizou03> ? Or is this pointed at someone else? :p | |
| [11:47] <meoblast001> thats during alternative install | |
| [12:12] <meoblast001> something's up with kubuntu | |
| [12:12] <meoblast001> it wont install cuz i dont have NIC | |
| [12:12] <knome> meoblast001, #kubuntu | |
| [12:12] <meoblast001> oops | |
| [12:12] <meoblast001> sorry | |

| [15:11] <new2linux> Is there a way to install Xubuntu on a machine without a cd drive but with a 256 megabyte flash drive? | |
| [15:14] <TheSheep> !install | |
| [15:14] <ubottu> Ubuntu can be installed in a lot of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall. Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | |
| [17:25] <DaveDixonII> How to i .zip a folder in the terminal? | |
| [17:25] <cody-somerville> use the zip command | |
| [17:26] <DaveDixonII> and that is? | |
| [17:27] <floating> nix ppl prefer tar | |
| [17:28] <cody-somerville> DaveDixonII, The zip command is a command that allows you to create a zipfile. | |
| [17:28] <floating> tar -cfvz /dir dir.tar.gz maybe or something | |
| [17:28] <DaveDixonII> Thank you floating | |
| [17:29] <cody-somerville> That would create a tarfill | |
| [17:29] <cody-somerville> Infact, a compressed tarfile | |
| [17:29] <floating> extract it by changing the c (create) to x (extract) | |
| [17:30] <cody-somerville> DaveDixonII, are you looking for the zip format specifically? You may be if you're looking to extract on a Windows system since windows systems generally don't have the software installed to extract tarfiles. | |
| [17:30] <DaveDixonII> 7-Zip can handle it. :) | |
| [17:30] <floating> i think winrar extracts tar.gz fine | |
| [17:31] <cody-somerville> Well, if you're already familiar with the software you'll need then I'd say you're set. | |
| [17:31] <new2linux> Is there a way to install Xubunut in chunks (Can't fit the wjole thing on one flash drive) or could I copy folders from the falsh drive to the computer on at a time (Like a manual install). I've got DSL booted up using a floppy drive and 256mb flash drive and have acsess to the hard drive. I can't do a net install BTW (No net work card). | |
| [17:32] <cody-somerville> new2linux, Can you fit the Ubuntu Server on the flash drive? | |
| [17:33] <cody-somerville> Oh wait, 256mb flash drive | |
| [17:33] <cody-somerville> I take it there is no cd-rom? | |
| [17:34] <new2linux> If it is less then 256mb | |
| [17:34] <new2linux> No cd rom | |
| [17:34] <cody-somerville> new2linux, I don't think its feasible. | |
| [17:35] <new2linux> I was thinking of just splitting the img up and copying it to the hard drive when DSL is booted. | |
| [17:35] <new2linux> Or does it do more then copy the img files | |
| [17:35] <cody-somerville> It doesn't copy the img file at all | |
| [17:36] <new2linux> Ok then never mind that. | |
| [17:37] <cody-somerville> IF this computer doesn't have a network card or cdrom, I doubt it could run Xubuntu anyhow | |
| [17:39] <new2linux> Ya it can I believe at least 600mhz processor 192mb RAM | |
| [17:40] <cody-somerville> Yea, I suppose it might but it would be slow | |
| [17:43] <new2linux> Think Puppy Linux would be better (DSL says it isn't meant to be installed). | |
| [17:47] <cody-somerville> DSL works fine installed | |
| [17:48] <new2linux> I thought DSL was meant for live cd mode not as a true installed system. | |
| [17:49] <cody-somerville> Sure but it works just as well installed if not better | |

| [22:16] <floating> then choose install updates | |
| [22:16] <floating> if i want to install those that i can | |
| [22:16] <knome> i had something like this earlier | |

| [22:17] <knome> then adding them again did not bring the problem back | |
| [22:19] <floating> i donno what i should remove though | |
| [22:20] <knome> in the updates list, can you see a subtitle on top of the problematic updates? | |
| [22:20] <knome> like proposed updates or something like that? | |
| [22:20] <floating> how can i update the package information | |

| [22:25] <floating> but ok | |
| [22:25] <knome> you can try to remove all those repositories from synaptic | |
| [22:25] <knome> and then update the list, restart update manager, click check if the list still has some items | |
| [22:26] <knome> then when it's empty try to add those repositories again | |

| [22:28] <knome> floating, when removed those repositories from synaptic? | |
| [22:29] <knome> floating, you could try also chaging the server you're downloading updates/packages | |
| [22:29] <floating> i have to remove that too ? | |
| [22:29] <floating> guess i remove that toook | |
| [22:30] <floating> im not sure whbere to remove that though | |
| [22:30] <floating> from synaptic | |
| [22:31] <knome> you mean remove or change? | |
| [22:31] <floating> i have removed recommended + security + those 3rd party that had problems.. now there is only left this one package | |
| [22:32] <floating> i dont know where to remove that | |
| [22:33] <knome> floating, can you try to change the server? i have had some problem with the finnish server sometimes. | |

| [22:37] <knome> change the server for finland to something else | |
| [22:37] <floating> just .fi to .se ? | |
