[03:14] *how === sirblue [n=sirblue@gpt-gw.gznet.ru] has joined #kubuntu [03:15] see fstab and hope it is not NTFP (else reformat as ext3 and install extifs driver for XP [03:15] so in the Konsole just type: kate fstab [03:15] ? [03:15] man fstab perhaps first [03:16] this is what I have : /dev/sda1 /media/windows ntfs ro,umask=000 0 0 [03:16] i see === seth|lappy [n=seth@ubuntu/member/seth] has joined #kubuntu [03:16] the dev i'm trying to mount is /dev/hdb1 [03:16] but /dev/sda1 depends on your system and you need to make the dir /media/windows [03:16] so /dev/hdb1 [03:17] yes [03:17] is it NTFS and do you want to write to it ? [03:17] lol yes and yes :) [03:17] well then reformat is as ext3 and mount ext3 from XP because NTFS and writing is not good [03:17] i do that all the time and it works great [03:18] so what the hell it can "read only" just fine but writing to the WIN XP disk is buggy? [03:18] yes [03:18] that blows [03:18] hope they fix that in the next release of ubuntu [03:19] No it has been around for many years [03:19] There is an NTFS driver using the dll from windows [03:19] the problem is that NTFS does strangs things and reverse engineering is difficult and hence buggy [03:19] yah i suppose [03:19] but really do think about formatting as ext3 and use the followying driver [03:20] well, if i format it dont i lose the data? [03:20] it is free and makes the ext3 driver behave just like an XP drivef (but without character case problems) [03:20] hdb1 is data disk so backup the disk to another driver, format and restore [03:21] you need Ext2IFS_1_10a.exe [03:21] google around a bit [03:21] k [03:21] just seems like a lot of work just to copy files from one HD to the next [03:21] cuz really thats mostly what i wanna do [03:22] copy the mp3s from my XP HD to my linux HD === LjL [n=ljl@62-101-126-215.ip.fastwebnet.it] has joined #kubuntu [03:22] So again : make a backup of all your mp3 on the NTSF formatted partition [03:22] after backup reformat as ext3 (from linux) [03:22] install driver abover under XP [03:22] restore your mp3 on the now ext3 partition [03:22] and done ... never have to copy again EVER [03:23] k here's my question though...after doing that will the slave windows drive load to windows like normal once i switch it back to a single master? [03:24] yes windows will see it as drive Z: q: or whatever [03:24] I have an external USB driver I use like this and it works perfectly [03:24] hmm thats cool [03:24] gnight folks [03:24] so once you install that driver on windows [03:24] I even have a FLASH PEN formatted this way [03:25] cool [03:25] so once i install that on my windows HD i can swap files flawlessly between my linux and windows HDs? [03:25] Just plug the PEN in and windows says ...driver X: ... or something but it is formatted as an ext3 driver but you cannot tell [03:25] yes, you do not even need to swap [03:26] WIndows and LINUX will consider the driver as native drives so you can share that driver between both [03:26] so its like they're the same file system right [03:26] ie NTFS or EXT3 [03:26] not like the ARE the same filesystem [03:27] Look at it like a CDROM [03:27] the CDROM also has a filesystem type [03:27] k [03:27] however both LINUX and WINDOWS have driver that understand the format [03:27] oh ok [03:27] installing the driver ext3 for XP makes XP understand about ext3 FS [03:27] Please could anyone of you help me with the "Real Translucency" please? [03:27] that makes sense now wimpies [03:28] good [03:28] but... my linux HD is the master HD [03:28] doesnt that matter [03:28] master, slave, usb does not matter [03:28] we are talking about format of the partition and not the way drives are handled by the bios [03:29] but how can "windows" interpurate EXT3 without running? [03:29] cuz linux is my main OS [03:29] The only thing is that you cannot make window sboot from that partition but hdb1 is probably ok [03:29] interpurate ?

[07:42] it's different to ubuntu too [07:42] <_phantom> ok. well, from what i gather from debian (Kubuntu is built off of debian), there is a tool called apt-get [07:43] heard of it [07:43] how does one get to it [07:43] <_phantom> now, Kubuntu, i have found has a gui for it, so you don't have to do it from the command line like i used to. [07:44] can't seem to find it though [07:44] <_phantom> look in your K menu/System. it's called Adept [07:44] adept [07:44] hold on [07:44] <_phantom> so go to K menu, go up to System, and you should find something in there called Adept.

[07:47] the reason why I installed linux was to be able to use GRASS and R [07:48] <_phantom> hmm.. never heard of that. [07:48] <_phantom> what is GRASS supposed to be?

[07:49] I am an economics student [07:50] and we are implementing an environmental economics program [07:50] <_phantom> one more thing that i haven't figured out is how to add ftp sites to the apt-get lookup, so you may not be able to get grass unless you compile it yourself.

[07:52] I know nothing about programming [07:52] <_phantom> well, ok. think of it this way. you get the raw data from the site, download it, and go to command rpmpt..... [07:53] <_phantom> after that, you go to the place where you downloaded it to, type ./compile and it compiles the program to your system [07:53] thanks [07:53] <_phantom> after that you must type 'make' (without the quotes) to make the "executable" file. [07:53] hmm [07:54] <_phantom> after that, you must type 'make install' (again, without quotes) to install it onto your system [07:54] I guess by ./compile you mean ./configure [07:54] <_phantom> bah, you're right. my bad. [07:54] <_phantom> my mind's 20 other places right now. [07:54] <_phantom> ./configure, make, make install. [07:54] renato: thats only for programs that you can't get with adept.

I used slackware before ubuntu [04:06] and gentoo [04:06] ok. so basicllay i have to backupo all the information on the data and music partition into my mp3 player (30 gigs, I only have 20 gigs of stuff in the partition!) === dsaa [i=dsaa@210.213.93.79] has joined #kubuntu [04:07] heh [04:07] so when i install kubuntu, i would delete both windowns partitions? [04:07] DatsunZoso, tell me how big the HD is, and how big each partition is, and we'll talk it out [04:07] the hd is 80 gigs, data & music is 20 gigs, and the work hd is 60 [04:08] I started on Debian, then FC1, then Debian, then what was mandrake, then wharty... I've one lots of voyaging threw distros... I even think openBSD and freebsd popped up along the way [04:09] DatsunZoso, ah ok. Well, you dont have to delete the first windows partition (NTFS filetype), it can stay. You don't even have to delete the second partition if you KNOW that you only need 30 gigs for data and music. But if you think you would possibly need to expand it in the future, then yeah, you will have to delete it [04:09] here is how your partition table looks [04:09] 80 Gig HD: |Windows (60 Gigs, NTFS)|Music & Data (20 Gigs, NTFS)| [04:10] now, if you installed kubuntu [04:10] o rly? ya i just want to get rid off the windows partition and let the music and data partition stay. [04:10] do you want to get rid of windows permanently? [04:10] yes sir [04:10] hmmk [04:10] well then that makes it a little easier [04:10] i gotta windows xp lying around somewere [04:11] so if anything goes bad (which prob wont) i can just reinstall it [04:11] back up your music and data on your mp3 player, then wipe both partitions, pop in the install cd and your good to go if you know how to install it [04:12] now, that raises more questions because pf a few things. You will have to consider the filetype you are gonna use to keep storing things (data and music) [04:12] oh, lets say i want to keep the music and data cd, can i still keep it and acess it from kubuntu [04:12] well, you can't necesarily keep it, because its further ahead in the partition table that linux. And you want linux at the front of the partition table (with windows if you want to dual boot) [04:13] ok [04:13] do you know about filetypes? [04:13] like [04:13] ntfs [04:13] fat32 [04:13] ya its ntfs [04:13] whole hd [04:13] yeah [04:13] both partitiosns [04:13] i mean === jlaine [n=jlaine@dsl-aur-fe9fdd00-251.dhcp.inet.fi] has joined #kubuntu [04:13] linux can read ntfs fine [04:14] but it cant write to it, its dangerous to write to ntfs from linux [04:14] BUT [04:14] there are easy to implement "extensions" for linux [04:14] that make it easy to read/write/edit ntfs partitions from linux easily and safely [04:14] write this down: its called ntfsprogs [04:14] k [04:14] there is a wikipedia for it [04:15] now, thats your only tool for being able to write to ntfs without being in danger of ruining your HD [04:15] or ruining the data at least [04:15] oh ok [04:16] your only other options are either to create a fat32 (which both linux and windows can read/write to, but you are limited to like 5 gigs i think thats the max partition size for fat32) or just create a partition for data/music that is ext3 (the linux filetype) [04:16] i think what im gonna do is get windows complete off the pc, save music and data onto the mp3 hd, install kubuntu and just save the music and data onto kubuntu [04:16] can i do that? lol [04:17] DatsunZoso, yeah, if youd like, but the same reason why you HAVE that music/data partition now applies for linux too, if you ruin linux, you wont have to worry about bacing up your data, its already backed up [04:17] DatsunZoso, if you mean save music and data onto the linux filetype ext3, then yeah, that sounds great to me [04:19] how would i save into ext3? === spykiston [n=mark@81.13.137.8] has joined #kubuntu [04:19] just like ntfs [04:19] ext3 is like ntfs as far as saving goes [04:19] theres no special way [04:20] the only thing you would have to do [04:20] is make the ext3 partition [04:20] have you ever edited a partition table manually? === stian [n=stian@84.234.177.118] has joined #kubuntu [04:20] no [04:20] hehe, then you will have after you install linux :P [04:20] well at least i dont think i have? === beast [n=beast@host-73-147-220-24.midco.net] has joined #kubuntu [04:20] oh lol ok === Al-Daja [n=Reborn@217.129.195.23] has joined #kubuntu [04:21] i would suggest reading a how to guide on editing partitions manually [04:21] !partition [04:21] me2win: Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/ [04:21] !partitions [04:21] Go to System -> Administration -> Disks and enter your password. Pick the disk your partition is on from the list, then click the 'Partitions' tab. Select the partition you want to mount, set an access path (mount point) and click 'Enable'. [04:21] this is my first dive into linux, so im kinda noobish in the field [04:21] How do I install the latest version of sun java on my kubuntu box? [04:21] DatsunZoso, yeah, it is for alot people, but they all get through it [04:21] DatsunZoso, kubuntu makes it easy [04:21] stian, sudo apt-get install java [04:21] that won't do it.. [04:22] err, its java-common [04:22] my bad [04:22] make sure to apt-get update first [04:23] doing it now === FaTBaT [n=FaTBaT@87.252.230.24] has joined #kubuntu [04:23] so ok lets recap, i dont have to delete the m&d partition, just the big windows partition right? than when i install kubuntu, i can just change the ntfs partition into ext3? [04:24] DatsunZoso, nah, you will have to delete it because you cant *change* a partition type, you have to wipe it, make it that type, then put your data on it [04:24] it says i have the latest version, but when i try to run limewire, i get this: hang on [04:24] You need to upgrade to JRE 1.4.x or newer from http://www.java.com [04:24] ohhh kk [04:25] luckily i have almost all the music on my mp3 player [04:25] stian, you might need to apt-get build-essential [04:25] DatsunZoso, heh yeah, that IS a good thing [04:25] im gonna save the rest of the stuff i need onto it now [04:26] i have the latest essentials [04:26] DatsunZoso, you would have to delete that music and data partition anyway, because when you boot your computer up, the boot record has to be at the front of the partition table, so your hard drives needs to look like this: |Operating System| stian, hmm, thats wierd [04:26] oh ok i got it [04:27] the main thing that concerned me was my music, i dont want to download all the music i had lost [04:27] heh yeah, i know what you mean [04:27] but i just remebered i have it already on my mp3 player lol [04:28] i have 5 hard drives [04:28] my data is important to me :D [04:28] 5! i have 1 sata hd :( [04:28] heh [04:28] I have 4 SATA and 1 IDE [04:28] well im not exactly i power user [04:28] heh [04:28] i just heard that linux is real stable [04:28] compared to how windows is ! [04:28] hehe [04:29] yeah, but it has a learning curve [04:29] hopefully when you come in here though [04:29] people will be willing to help [04:29] Learning is fun [04:29] they usually are [04:29] ya lol i noticed! [04:29] but sometimes the people that are on aren't really the people that know [04:29] I got about 7 HD's total. on 2 box's [04:29] on windows i have this app called aston shell which basically stops explorer.exe from working when ur on the desktop, it only starts to work when you go into folders, and windows has been so stable [04:30] thats sort of a 'scary' idea. :P [04:30] lol [04:30] Dr_Willis, counting the 3 comps in my house, i have 12 hard drives [04:30] I need to get a nother file server going.. [04:30] running out of space. :P [04:30] usually i would have to reinstall windows every 6 months, but with astonshell it helped me not even think of that for a year! [04:30] Dr_Willis, hehe, you can never have enough space [04:31] Stacks of floppies, to stacks of CD's to stacks of external HD's ,, now going the Stack of FileServers.... [04:31] DatsunZoso, never even heard of that heh [04:31] ya its a wierd little app [04:31] but it works so i dont question it lol [04:31] haha [04:31] I can store my whole amiga floppy drive collection - to one USB thumb drive now. :) [04:32] a closet of C64 disks = 1 cd. [04:32] :P [04:32] then i got a single mame rom/game that takes up 1 gb. Lol! [04:32] LOL [04:34] oh i have one more question [04:34] sure [04:35] i have a encylcopedia type cd that works on windows, is there a way that i cna get it to run on linux? [04:35] can i install some type of app / [04:35] ? [04:35] in adept how can i see in wich repositories is a package? [04:35] there is WINE, its a windows emulator, but it doesnt work for everything, thats about your best shot. other than that, just farming the data right off the CD, but that would be tedious [04:36] Cedega may be better then wine in some cases [04:36] cedega is only for games though [04:36] or specifically for games [04:36] DatsunZoso, yeah, I was/am under that impression as well, but ive never used cedega tbh [04:36] I use it for tools all the time. :P [04:37] it runs winrar heh [04:37] and a few other tools i like. [04:37] lolz [04:37] why winrar? [04:37] why not use unrar [04:37] linux native [04:37] i like the features winrar has. [04:37] :P [04:38] heh [04:38] lol [04:38] irony [04:38] i use it to make zips mainly.. [04:38] real irony! [04:38] :P [04:38] i wont tell you anything, i have things like that i guess [04:38] I still cant track down a CD-Lable making program under Linux I like. === gamma [n=gamma@192.237.33.65.cfl.res.rr.com] has joined #kubuntu [04:39] Dr_Willis, lol [04:39] i have one last question [04:40] how would i connect to the internet with kubuntu? i have a dsl connection and im wondering how to connect with linux! n00bish but im a noob :P [04:40] DatsunZoso, it should work out of the box [04:40] ! [04:40] I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, DatsunZoso [04:40] lol [04:40] thats ubotu [04:40] he responds to ! commands [04:40] watch [04:40] !repos [04:40] To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource [04:40] and when you say his name [04:41] ubotu you suck [04:41] Like a black hole! [04:41] it should work outta the box? like on windows i dont have anything installed from it, i just have a connection were i put my username and pw is it the same with linux or is it more work? [04:41] DatsunZoso, but yeah, it should work fine after install [04:41] so when i install linux, i can already connect to the internet.....? lol im confused! [04:42] DatsunZoso, well [04:42] i have my DSL connected through the router [04:42] do you have a router? [04:42] if its a dsl->router->linuxbox. it should work. [04:42] ive set my router to login with my username/pw, i forgot completely about the box thingy [04:43] no i dont have a router i just have the pc-modem-connection [04:43] Dr_Willis, does he have to login manually, or will it work? [04:43] Hmm... [04:43] well id hope i had to login manually [04:43] my router and cable modem just 'work' [04:43] :) [04:43] lol [04:43] Dr_Willis, lols [04:43] !dsl [04:43] I guess pppoe is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ADSLPPPoE === diego [n=diego@84.77.37.152] has joined #kubuntu [04:44] it should find DHCP just fine [04:45] DatsunZoso, im thinking it should work out of the box [04:46] well when u say outta the box i would still have to put my pw and username in right? [04:47] yes [04:47] read this [04:47] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ADSLPPPoE [04:48] you may not know what i means now, but once you get into linux [04:48] you will need that to connect to internet probably [04:48] pppoe [04:48] i suggest printing out that page [04:48] ok... sudo pppoeconf [04:48] if you can [04:48] ya i printed it out already [04:48] i have a bunch of pages printed in case i run into problems [04:49] good good [04:49] let me go through some stuff real quick [04:49] i just want to connect to the internet and listen to music and thats pretty much it [04:49] ok [04:49] so you know what you are running into [04:49] ya have a basic idea, but very limited [04:49] still dont understand alot of the commands and stuff but im gettin there [04:50] root is the superuser of your computer, he can do everything. But the idea behind ubuntu/kubuntu is that you arent logged in as root (its dangerous). so instead it uses a frontend called SUDO (or "superuser do") [04:50] it allows you to do things AS root, that you can't do as a normal user === Psi-Jack [i=psi-jack@cpe-70-112-220-160.austin.res.rr.com] has joined #kubuntu [04:50] sudo pppoeconf [04:51] will ask the computer via commandline, to edit pppoeconf [04:51] you cant do that just as [04:51] Datsun the user [04:51] have to be root, [04:51] i c [04:51] http://pastebin.com/583593 anyone can tell me what is wrong or what is missing?

I need to introduce them to what Linux can do in a group enviroment. this is not "training". [10:31] kosh: learning by doing usually involves reading lots of manuals when you get stuck.

[10:32] leafw: it is not just about getting stuck, for instance I have seen people write code in python like for i in range(len(seq)): item = seq[i] dosomething(item) since that translated to how they did it in c, however that is ugly and far slower by comparison to for item in seq: dosomething(item) [10:33] leafw: why not have your editor do a continuous save? [10:33] kosh: why, some editors do a continuous save [10:34] bipolar: I have to admit I would not use a presentation program, I would just do the presentation directly with the software you are trying to show of [10:34] that was just an example, illustrating that the benefits are not so much, in my opinion, on the new features of kde versus windows, but rather ,the lack of missfeatures and bugs. [10:34] kosh: yeah. the presentation software would be more for the 10k ft. overview. :) [10:34] leafw: I don't see how your comment works with my comment on just having the editor do continous save === crimsun [n=crimsun@pdpc/supporter/silver/crimsun] has joined #kubuntu === nismo [n=nismo@pool-141-153-211-213.mad.east.verizon.net] has joined #kubuntu === nismo is now known as Datsunzoso [10:35] kosh: forget it, it was just an example.
