[00:05] <kevin_p> Hey, I was wanting to paritition my Hard drive, but want to keep my data and ubuntu separate but I will have multiple users
[00:05] <kevin_p> I assume /home will house my data (which will be shared between all users) but where will our user profiles be located? in /home or /usr?
[00:06] <kevin_p> I was asking so that I can clone my / directory but I also want the image file to include user profiles
[00:06] <kevin_p> but not data
[00:10] <kevin_p> I hope you all understand what I meant, I apologize if I need to clarify
[00:16] <kevin_p> can everybody see my question? My connection is poor where I am

[03:34] <FireAndIce> ms_daisy, Its not a url.. I've mysql installed on my desktop.
[03:35] <FireAndIce> And want to paste the output of query executed from mysql prompt.

[21:45] <Cong> I want to add entries, maybe one entry to right-click menu in file and folder context.
[21:47] <Cong> I left something out. These entries I want to add go in "move to" sub-menu on the context.
[22:14] <holstein> Cong: in unity?
[22:15] <Cong> Nope. I got U10.04.
[22:15] <holstein> so, in gnome2?
[22:15] <holstein> i dont think anyone is supporting gnome2 anymore.. not even gnome
[22:17] <Cong> It's still supported until August 2013.
[22:18] <holstein> well, 10.04 is.. its a lts
[22:18] <holstein> im just saying, i dont know if anyone is going to be motiviated to figure that out
[22:18] <holstein> Cong: what exactly are you trying to add? and where?
[22:19] <Cong> I want to an another directory to the submenu of "move to" of the file and folder context of the rightclick menu. Got all that? Nope. Okay!
[22:20] <holstein> Cong: ? im not following the "got all that, nope, okay?"
[22:20] <holstein> Cong: if you'd like for myself or one of the other volunteers to help, there will be follow up questions
[22:21] <holstein> Cong: this is in nautilus?
[22:22] <Cong> I'm not sure. Does the desktop count as nautilus? I mean it's not part of the file manager but it has some properties of the file manager.
[22:22] <holstein> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1193093 maybe
[22:23] <Cong> Are you hinting are nautilus actions? Doesn't that add another menu to the already wonderful menu?
[22:25] <holstein> Cong: im just asking what menu you are trying to edit.. and i think you are seeking editing the nautilus right-click file menu options.. and i think that is a relevant forum post pertaining to that topic
[22:27] <Cong> no, not the file menu (I don't even know where that is), the submenu called "move to". that's the menu I to add to.
[22:29] <holstein> Cong: sure.. that is a file option.. to move a file to another location.. thats why im assuming its nautilus that you are seeking help with
[22:30] <holstein> Cong: open nautilus (the file manager) and try right-clicking.. you should see the same right-click menu
[22:30] <holstein> Cong: nautilus is in charge of the desktop as well...
[22:30] <Cong> Okay.
[22:33] <Cong> I'm assuming "the move" submenu has a config file to add other places. why else would there not be a dialog item to pick the location manually.
[22:34] <holstein> Cong: hopefully thats what i linked you.. i dont have a relevant version of nautilus running.. and i need to run, but now you know how to ask
[22:35] <holstein> you can go to #ubuntu and say you are using 10.04 the LTS and want to edit the right-click context menu in nautilus
[22:35] <holstein> enjoy!
[22:36] <Cong> The home folder and desktop can't be the most popular places in the entire filesystem.
[22:36] <holstein> Cong: its just nautilus. the directories you choose are popular
[22:37] <holstein> Cong: maybe step back and ask what you are trying to do.. i seem to remember that opening up to other options... if you are implying those are the only places to "send-to"
[22:37] <holstein> ive never personallly used "send-to" much, but when i did, i sent to a USB stick
[22:37] <holstein> Cong: cheers!
[22:38] <Cong> Let me take a picture. You get a better picture of what I mean.
[22:39] <holstein> sure.. use imagebin.. but im running out.. try #ubuntu if its slow in here after i run.. its a US holiday
[22:41] <Cong> Wait. How do I get a pic if the keyboard is frozen by the right clicking of a file?
[22:42] <Cong> I can't use shortcuts if there is a special dialog of menu is active.
[22:42] <Cong> I can't use shortcuts if there is a special dialog or menu is active.
[22:45] <Cong> Okay. I got it!
[22:48] <Cong> is imagebin special or use less memory or something?
