A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. See also !addppa and !ppa-purge
razvan_ 2017-03-06 22:51:12
yes :D
donttrustem 2017-03-06 22:52:30
ppf: Thanks for the pointer … www-data is the issue
donttrustem 2017-03-06 22:52:38
runing as that user
ppf 2017-03-06 22:52:39
yes
ppf 2017-03-06 22:52:56
as i said, that's how you write a rule for /etc/cron.d, not a user's crontab
razvan_ 2017-03-06 22:53:36
for example this theme :
razvan_ 2017-03-06 22:53:39
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:noobslab/themes
razvan_ 2017-03-06 22:53:39
sudo apt-get update
razvan_ 2017-03-06 22:53:40
sudo apt-get install arc-theme
razvan_ 2017-03-06 22:53:54
how safe it is ?
razvan_ 2017-03-06 22:54:00
just from curiosity
cfhowlett 2017-03-06 22:54:02
razvan_, they are unsupported. you use it, you break it, you fix it.
razvan_ 2017-03-06 22:55:25
:))
razvan_ 2017-03-06 22:55:27
yes
ducasse 2017-03-06 22:55:31
razvan_: arc-theme is in the repos, you don't need a ppa
razvan_ 2017-03-06 22:55:38

Hi! Anyone here?
ikevin 2017-03-06 23:12:56
GandalfDerBlaue, perhaps yes ;)
ducasse 2017-03-06 23:42:27
Olanzapin: and use gksudo for graphical apps if you *have* to run them as root
alkisg 2017-03-06 23:42:46
Isn't there a kdesudo?
alkisg 2017-03-06 23:42:51
I think he's using kde
Olanzapin 2017-03-06 23:42:57
same using Transmission. if u dont use sudo transmission u are not able to edit settings
Olanzapin 2017-03-06 23:43:09
blocklist etc
alkisg 2017-03-06 23:43:26
Olanzapin: chown the /etc/transmission folder to your user if you have to
Olanzapin 2017-03-06 23:43:27
but that one worked out fine
AtuM 2017-03-06 23:43:27
If k3b does not work as a normal user, something is wrong with access to the burner.. perhaps user is missing a group membership..
alkisg 2017-03-06 23:43:36
Or wherever else it stores its settings
Olanzapin 2017-03-06 23:44:00
got it working now and i'm realy happy about the help i got from here
AtuM 2017-03-06 23:44:17
Olanzapin: that will be 5$ ;-)
Olanzapin 2017-03-06 23:44:21
haha
alkisg 2017-03-06 23:44:24
For each one :P
Olanzapin 2017-03-06 23:44:41
