[00:28]<ezrlx>Hey, how do you set an application to run at startup?
[00:32]<sxzjzzg-cug>Eraph, what kind of application?
[00:32]<ezrlx>Heard of Synergy? Lets me use one keyboard and mouse across two computers.
[00:33]<kzzdzpjfyan>hey guys.. do you know how to check the server name of my computer?
[00:34]<xufcxzys>hostname
[00:34]<kzzdzpjfyan>ohh .... somthing like name@name?
[00:35]<sxzjzzg-cug>Eraph, there is a "session" for GNOME, you can add applications to it that will start when you log in.
[00:35]<sxzjzzg-cug>I don't know much about it, the icon lives in "More Preferences", and I think there is a "session editor" available somewhere
[00:35]<ezrlx>Oh, I see it, hold on.
[00:36]<ezrlx>Will this apply to all users, or just the current one?
[00:36]<sxzjzzg-cug>You can set it just for your user
[00:36]<sxzjzzg-cug>Don't know if there is a "all users" option
[00:37]<ezrlx>Okay, I'll give this a go - thanks!
[00:38]<kzzdzpjfyan>ix86.i386 = p4 processor?

[00:40]<kzzdzpjfyan>RH72.ix86.i386.rpm and RH72.intelP3.i686.rpm
[00:40]<sxzjzzg-cug>i686.
[00:40]<kzzdzpjfyan>ok thanks
[00:40]<sxzjzzg-cug>Are you actually running RH72 on the target machine?
[00:41]<xddjz>P4 runs 386 fine, but i686 uses it's HT capabilities
[00:41]<kzzdzpjfyan>i see
[00:41]<sxzjzzg-cug>HT support must be enabled in the kernel.
[00:42]<xddjz>yes the kernel must be %%%%smp
[00:42]<kzzdzpjfyan>by default ,HT is not enabled?
[00:42]<sxzjzzg-cug>If your system is truly RH72, I bet it isn't even supported by the installed kernel.
[00:43]<kzzdzpjfyan>well.. im on fc5 but i managed to install some rh7
[00:43]<sxzjzzg-cug>Good luck.
[00:43]<kzzdzpjfyan>guess i will go with 386

[00:57]<xddjz>KarmaPolice "uname -r" checks the kernel version
[00:57]<axn>errr, well actually i have a prototype somewhere around that uses pyinotify and the inotify kernel feature to detect if any of the menu entrys changed
[00:57]<axn>errr, and then trigger a menu regen :)

[01:03]<sxgzymjgw1>I have several .vob files that are zipped in several .rar files.... like 101 of them....
[01:03]<sxgzymjgw1>is there a way to unrar them so they are all in the same directory like Winrar does?
[01:05]<sxgzymjgw1>I have tried to use archive manager but it only opens 1 rar file at a time...
[01:09]<jlsna>we don't help with stolen software / movies
[01:09]<jlsna>sorry charlie.

[01:11]<dxbrfa>what could have beein wrong?
[01:12]<xddjz>Sheridon13 try man unrar

[01:16]<dznyac>Sheridon13: for f in *.rar; do unrar x $f; done
[01:16]<dznyac>assuming that this isn't a multi-part rar

[01:21]<kzzdzpjfyan>quick question.. what's the command for creating folder?
[01:21]<xddjz>I think no country has laws for possesion of vob files ;)
[01:21]<dznyac>KarmaPolice: mkdir
[01:22]<jlsna>you can take all the shit you want DrNick .. and let people deceive you all day if you wish
