| <Tatey> anyone know if it's possible to remove a footer from a particular page with OOo? | |
| <cafuego_> Tatey: Yup, add a section break before and after it, then remove the footer | |
| <Tatey> add a section break? | |
| <cafuego_> yup | |
| <cafuego_> headers/footers apply to sections, so if you break the document into sections, you can edit 'em. Specifically, make the page in question be in its own section. | |
| <Tatey> ohhh right | |
| <Tatey> I understand now | |
| <Tatey> thanks very much cafuego_ :) | |

| <Hobbsee> oops | |
| <BLAM> hey guys, every now and again I accidently drag the GNOME panel from the top of the screen to a vertical position on the side. Is there any way I can disable the ability to move the panel? | |
| <cafuego_> BLAM: Unplug your mouse. | |
| <BLAM> Cafuego: But then the dog would steal it | |
| <cafuego_> I don't know of a way to lock a panel, though | |
| <bimberi> BLAM: run 'gconf-editor', /apps/panel/global->locked_down (stops that and more) | |
| <BLAM> thanks | |

| <elkbuntu> top of the evenin' to ye, Big Sicc | |
| <siccness> ahh me dear lovely elkz | |
| <siccness> <--learn how to configure cisco routers today, well the basic part of it | |
| <elkbuntu> good fun? | |
| <siccness> Like anything, it sucks until you get it to work | |
| <siccness> although it's annoying because there are like different levels, config levels typa thing | |
| <siccness> so if you want to display information | |
| <siccness> you gotta drop down levels | |
| <siccness> and then run the show (info type cmd) | |
| <siccness> unless it's relevant to the level | |
| <siccness> heh, that made no sense. Point being, it's annoying. | |
| <lisapc> evening | |
| <lisapc> i just signed up with broadband today. get connected in 2 weeks ; :-) | |
| <siccness> Cool | |
| <siccness> What type, cable, adsl? | |

| <DarthLappy> Hehe. | |
| <lisapc> siccness optusnet | |
| <DarthLappy> Bigpond ADSL is less than fun. :( | |
| <lisapc> due to savings | |
| <lisapc> i rang inerenode | |
| <lisapc> and they said my line had a code on it | |
| <lisapc> internode rather | |
| <lisapc> so internode couldnt hook me up | |
| <lisapc> siccness adsl2+ | |
| <siccness> Cool | |
| <lisapc> i was going to join internode but they said a code stopped them connecting me | |
| <lisapc> and they cant offer me adsl2+ | |
| <lisapc> but wanted more money | |
| <lisapc> and had to pay for connection and modem | |
| <lisapc> optus was free connecrion, free modem and adsl2+ for $69 per month | |
| <lisapc> 60 gigs | |
| <lisapc> siccness sound good? | |
| <siccness> Sounds very good | |
| <lisapc> :-) | |
| <lisapc> and 2 months free | |
| <lisapc> no other ISP could beat that | |
| <lisapc> siccness but u ever heard of optus and telstra placing codes on lines? | |
| <lisapc> so only they can unlock them | |
| <lisapc> i guess he left hehe | |

| <TheMuso> Morning all. | |
| <lisapc> morning :-) | |
| <lisapc> how are you Luke? | |
| <TheMuso> Very well thanks. Yourself? | |
| <lisapc> im great :) | |
| <lisapc> TheMuso i signed up for broadband yesterday | |
| <TheMuso> lisapc: So I read. | |
| <lisapc> but have to wait 2 weeks | |
| <lisapc> i hope i can connect ubuntu with tt | |
| <lisapc> they dont support ubuntu, so i havw to work it out myseld | |
| <TheMuso> It shouldn't be a problem if the modem has ethernet. | |
| <lisapc> yes | |
| <lisapc> they said it comes with USB and ethernet port | |
| <lisapc> TheMuso but i have no idea how to tell it to connect | |
| <lisapc> to my exchange | |
| <TheMuso> The modem will come already configured. All you will need to do is enter your username and password. The modem will then connect to the exchange, and optus. Your computer will then be given an address, and you will be on your way. | |
| <TheMuso> Optus do their upmost to make sure its easy for users to get connected. I know a few people on Optus DSL who had little trouble getting set up. | |
| <lisapc> TheMuso ok | |
| <lisapc> but where do I tell it to enter my username and password? | |
| <TheMuso> I am sure there will be instructions with the package. | |
| <TheMuso> You have to use the modem's web configurationp interface. | |
| <lisapc> TheMuso did you know optus doesnt support vista either. i wonder why | |
| <lisapc> TheMuso ok fanx | |
| <TheMuso> Probably because its so new. | |
| <lisapc> yeah | |
| <TheMuso> Any sane person would stay away for now IMO. | |
| <TheMuso> Or even for ever. | |
| <Hit3k> I'm gonna wait till SP1 | |
| <lisapc> TheMuso i bought a new notrbook and it came with vista | |
| <lisapc> thats only reason im using it | |
| <TheMuso> Ah. | |
| <TheMuso> Well you are using Ubuntu as well aren't you? | |
| <lisapc> dual boot | |
| <lisapc> i would on;ly use ubuntu if I could get my goeforce 7300 and tv tuner to work on it | |
| <lisapc> but i cannot ;( | |
| <lisapc> so i have to keep vista for that | |
| <lisapc> TheMuso if you ever run into a person who got a NVidia 7300 and tv tuner to work in ubuntu, pls ask them to message me :) | |
| <lisapc> then I can delete vista :) | |
| <TheMuso> lisapc: Have you tried the proprietary Nvidia drivers? | |
| <TheMuso> They come with Ubuntu. | |
| <TheMuso> I don't have any links to how you set them up however. | |
| <lisapc> what are the proprietary Nvidia drivers? | |
| <TheMuso> Drivers that Nvidia has written to make their video cards work properly in Linux. | |
| <lisapc> nobody told me about those | |
| <TheMuso> However they are not truely free, as in you can't look at the source code. | |
| <TheMuso> But they are free for use. | |
| <lisapc> cool | |
| <lisapc> where i get them? | |
| <TheMuso> Ubuntu has them, but they don't use them by default | |
| <lisapc> hmm ok | |
| <TheMuso> Well I don't know how to set them up, and don't know of any howtos at this point. | |
| <lisapc> TheMuso does this sound like them: sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx ? | |
| <TheMuso> Yes, but there is more to do than that. | |
| <TheMuso> You have to edit a configuration file. | |
| <TheMuso> Hang on, I'll see what I can find for you./ | |
| <lisapc> i wouldnt know what file and what tp type :( | |
| <lisapc> TheMuso ty :) | |
| <Fujitsu> !nvidia | |
| <ubotwo> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | |
| <lisapc> you are a true gentleman | |
| <Fujitsu> lisapc, ^^ | |
| <lisapc> Fujitsu ahhhh , ill look there | |
| <lisapc> brb | |
| <TheMuso> Fujitsu: THanks dude. Wasn't sure if the bot had anything useful like that. | |
| <Fujitsu> TheMuso: It's one of the more common questions in #ubuntu, so of course there is! The bot knows all, remember. | |
| <TheMuso> Very true. | |
| <TheMuso> I'll remember that for next time./ | |
| <lisapc> Fujitsu any bot help for mt TV tuner card? | |
| <lisapc> !tvtuner | |
| <ubotwo> Sorry, I know nothing about that - try http://help.ubuntu.com/community/ | |
| * TheMuso wonders why the bot was renamed. | |
| <lisapc> if i get my video and tv tuner card working, I can remove vista and celebrate :) | |
| <Fujitsu> TheMuso, load, perhaps? There are two of them. | |
| <Fujitsu> Well, three if you count Ubugtu. | |
| <Fujitsu> Supybot isn't well known for efficiency. | |
| <TheMuso> heh | |
| <lisapc> Fujitsu any bot help for mt TV tuner card? | |
| <TheMuso> lisapc: Do you know what make and model? | |
| <lisapc> yes | |
| <lisapc> Asus TV tuner | |
| <lisapc> U3000 Mini | |
| <TheMuso> Ok. | |
| <lisapc> would be wonderful to get that working on ubuntu | |
| <TheMuso> From my short search, I haven't yet been able to find anything. | |
| <lisapc> me either | |
| <TheMuso> But I am a little pre-occupied at the moment, so can't do a full search at this point. | |
| <lisapc> beeen looking too | |
| <lisapc> TheMuso thats ok, ty anyway. | |
