| 17:38.44 | guest_0328 | Does anyone know how to make Acrobat the default viewer....Preview gives me problems and doesn't display most of my assignments. |
| 17:41.09 | wps | right-click on a PDF file |
| 17:41.24 | wps | and select "get info" |
| 17:41.36 | wps | or, highlight it and press cmd + i |
| 17:41.50 | feutetejsd | convincing your browser to handle it with Acrobat is another thing.... |
| 17:42.05 | feutetejsd | I mean if you click a link to a PDF in a web page, and it's opening with the wrong app |
| 17:42.26 | wps | once you have the the Get Info dialogue up, select Adobe Acrobat from the drop menu |
| 17:42.57 | wps | then click "Change All". Then, tell it 'yes to all' in the confirmation dialogue that comes up. |
| 17:43.30 | wps | make sense, WillieNelson? |
| 17:43.38 | WillieNelson | sounds good...thanks |
| 17:48.27 | drewbono | Wow...I can't believe WillieNelson was here! |

| 18:00.48 | feutetejsd | ummmm...if that means how am I, then fine, thanks |
| 18:00.49 | feutetejsd | you? |
| 18:00.56 | cmkilger | pretty good |
| 18:01.10 | cmkilger | I'm trying to learn linux stuff |
| 18:01.20 | feutetejsd | cool...Linux is awesome |
| 18:01.23 | cmkilger | I installed Yellw Dog on my iMac |
| 18:01.34 | feutetejsd | nice....3.1 or 4.0? |
| 18:01.43 | cmkilger | 4.0 |
| 18:01.52 | feutetejsd | cool |
| 18:02.01 | feutetejsd | how's it working for you? |
| 18:02.07 | cmkilger | good |
| 18:02.28 | cmkilger | but I have to activate the network settings each time |
| 18:02.48 | feutetejsd | that's odd |
| 18:02.58 | feutetejsd | static IP or DHCP? |
| 18:03.03 | cmkilger | DHCP |
| 18:03.27 | feutetejsd | and other machines on the network don't have network problems? |
| 18:03.32 | cmkilger | no |
| 18:03.37 | feutetejsd | hmmm |
| 18:03.51 | cmkilger | it's just having trouble figuring out what card I have I think |
| 18:03.59 | feutetejsd | ah...that might be it |
| 18:04.00 | cmkilger | I need to play with it a little |
| 18:04.17 | cmkilger | although I think that's what messed it up in the first place |
| 18:04.42 | feutetejsd | LOL |
| 18:04.47 | feutetejsd | but that's the best way to learn |
| 18:04.51 | cmkilger | yeah |
| 18:04.55 | feutetejsd | and Google is the best way to correct your mistakes |
| 18:05.11 | cmkilger | you gotta love Google |
| 18:05.39 | feutetejsd | oh yeah |
| 18:05.41 | cmkilger | I finally found a ppc build of firefox |
| 18:06.15 | cmkilger | I like that more than Mozilla |
| 18:06.25 | feutetejsd | cool |
| 18:06.59 | cmkilger | do you know how I can share files with my Mac? |
| 18:08.33 | macnewbold | enable file sharing? |
| 18:08.36 | macnewbold | j/k |
| 18:08.45 | feutetejsd | stand by.... |
| 18:10.18 | macnewbold | what kind of computer are you sharing from? |
| 18:10.31 | cmkilger | iBook |
| 18:10.50 | feutetejsd | try something like this from the Linux box: mount -t smbfs -o username=<username> //192.168.0.227/username ~/localMountPoint/ |
| 18:11.25 | feutetejsd | but first you'll have to create the directory on the Linux box that I called ~/localMountPoint/ |
| 18:11.37 | feutetejsd | and replace the IP address I gave with the IP of the MAc |
| 18:15.13 | feutetejsd | oh yeah, and turn on Windows file sharing in the Sharing control panel, to enable SMB on your mac |
| 18:15.14 | cmkilger | it says only root can do that |
| 18:16.08 | feutetejsd | true |
| 18:16.19 | feutetejsd | thinking of other ways.... |
| 18:16.22 | feutetejsd | or at least trying to |
| 18:17.01 | cmkilger | is there no root command? |
| 18:17.25 | feutetejsd | su - |
| 18:17.32 | feutetejsd | that will prompt you for the root password |
| 18:17.35 | feutetejsd | and you'll become root |
| 18:17.51 | feutetejsd | I assume you're logged in via SSH? |
| 18:18.36 | cmkilger | bad assumption |
| 18:18.52 | feutetejsd | :) |
| 18:18.53 | feutetejsd | sorry |
| 18:19.08 | feutetejsd | so you're sitting at the linux machine? |
| 18:19.17 | cmkilger | yeah |
| 18:19.41 | feutetejsd | using the GUI, or are you doing everything on the command line? |
| 18:20.13 | feutetejsd | if you're using the GUI, you can just open a terminal and type su - |
| 18:20.24 | cmkilger | GUI |
| 18:20.47 | feutetejsd | although, I think there's a network browser in the GUI that works pretty well and should be able to see your Mac's shares... |
| 18:20.58 | cmkilger | I tried that. |
| 18:21.05 | feutetejsd | ah...errors? |
| 18:21.15 | cmkilger | I think that's when the computer started having network problems |
| 18:21.32 | feutetejsd | i see |
| 18:21.32 | cmkilger | it just doesn't find anything |
| 18:21.49 | cmkilger | I had to start the LISa daemon |
| 18:22.27 | feutetejsd | wow...I don't even know what that is |
| 18:22.29 | feutetejsd | honestly |
| 18:22.32 | cmkilger | me either |
| 18:22.42 | feutetejsd | if you do su - from the command line |
| 18:22.47 | cmkilger | but it's needed for network browing |
| 18:22.49 | feutetejsd | and then try the mount command I gave earlier, |
| 18:22.52 | feutetejsd | what happens? |
| 18:23.38 | cmkilger | Could not resolve mount point /root/localMountPoint/ |
| 18:24.54 | feutetejsd | you'll want to create a directory under root called localMountPoint (or you can name it whatever you want, as long as it matches what's in the command) |
| 18:24.57 | feutetejsd | cd /root |
| 18:25.03 | feutetejsd | mkdir localMountPoint |
| 18:25.12 | feutetejsd | or mkdir iBook |
| 18:25.21 | *** join/#byumug wps (~wps@208.186.134.102) |
| 18:25.23 | feutetejsd | and then change the mount command to use iBook instead of localMountPoint |

| 19:19.19 | macnewbold | overclocking a MiniMac? That's crazy... |
| 19:19.26 | macnewbold | they probably already run extremely hot as it is... |
| 19:19.37 | macnewbold | that's just asking for it to catch on fire. |
| 19:19.49 | feutetejsd | LOL |
| 19:19.52 | macnewbold | not to mention the fact that many people will put it in poorly ventilated areas |
| 19:19.56 | macnewbold | like under the bed or something |
| 19:20.01 | feutetejsd | LOL!!! |
| 19:23.05 | macnewbold | MiniMac under bed + overclocking-induced spontaneous combustion = one really really bad night |
| 19:23.32 | feutetejsd | oh so true |
| 19:23.45 | macnewbold | hmmm.... |
| 19:24.24 | macnewbold | you could do a ton with it: |
| 19:24.30 | macnewbold | burn 200 CDs at a time, |
| 19:25.12 | macnewbold | run beowulf, |
| 19:25.15 | macnewbold | almost anything... |
| 19:25.20 | macnewbold | and it would all fit in a closet |
| 19:25.35 | feutetejsd | a very warm closet.....that would be all kinds of cool |
| 19:25.58 | feutetejsd | figuratively, not literally |
| 19:26.13 | macnewbold | your power bill would go up, but your heating bill wouldnt... :) |
| 19:26.40 | wps | :) |
| 19:53.09 | feutetejsd | hey wps...do you know how to increase the size of buddy icons in windows in AdiumX? |
| 19:53.52 | wps | I don't |
| 19:53.58 | wps | you may have to actually alter the theme |

| 22:50.15 | drewbono | I was surprised by how cool they are. |
| 22:50.31 | macnewbold | we were just joking around... but it's good to know they run cool |
