User1: Hi guys
User2: Hey dmcglone
User1: hows that KDE install going?
User2: It works.... mostly...
User1: whats mostly?
User2: Some things I don't like as much as I used to
User2: Package manager...
User1: are you running it now?
User1: do you like the new taskbar?
User2: can be
User2: It's about the same I think...
User1: using them spacers are rediculous
User1: also re-arranging the icons and stuff if a major pain in the arse
User2: The program I used to use to configure grub I can't find...
User2: and I'm too lazy to config menu.lst :)
User1: what was the name of it?
User2: Yeah.... it was in the System Settings...\
User1: do you recall the name of it?
User2: It just said "Grub"
User1: oh
User1: lol
User2: I'm sure it had an install name... been too long since I installed it...
User1: I know what you mean, let me check here real quick
User1: was it StatUp-Manager?
User2: I'm sure it was not that one...
User2: that's the only one I could find...
User1: are you running 10.10?
User2: Yep
User1: me too. I got the app I mentioned
User2: It also doesn't handle KVM switches as well as the other
User1: maybe you were looking for the login screen settings?
User3: what doesn't handle kvm switches?
User2: Kubuntu...
User2: User1 It had options to add bg pics to Grub change the order/name and some other stuff
User2: User3 I hit scrool lock twice then 1 or 2 (for what comp I want) the other OS on the same computer handles the change better then Kubuntu
User3: ah, mine has a physical button :)
User1: with KVM can the computers be on a network or do they need to be physically connected?
User3: the one I have is physically connected
User3: there may be networkable ones, but...I dunno, that's what vnc is for :)
User1: true
User2: User3 Mine also has a physical button but it's under the desk :)
User1: User2 mine is under the desk, but it's called a "trigger" ;-)
 * Cheri703 hearts the button
User2: Back back in a sec
User2: Back
User1: welcome back
 * Cheri703 is back too
User1: welcome back
User3: thanks :)
User2: Is there any kind of apt-get search?
User3: synaptic?
User4: apt-cache search <keyword>
User2: User4 does that work for packages you don't have installed?
User4: Umm.. no.
User4: For that, use synaptic.
User3: gui ftw!
User4: ...I don't think,, anyway.  I've never tried apt-cache search for stuff I didn't have installed...
User4: if you're on command line, aptitude is a synaptics-style ncurses program.
User2: User4 both work! thanks!
User4: No prob.
