| Flannel | Ubuntu_noob: No, AOL hasn't released AIM for linux, as far as I'm aware | 01:20 |
| dougsko | alienseer23: just rin that mount command whenever you want to mount the disk. and make sure to do a "umount" before taking it out | 01:20 |

| mcphail | Stork: just install a different version and call it by name | 01:20 |
| dougsko | alienseer23: that goes double for usb drives | 01:20 |
| sahasrara | Jack_Sparrow: oh ok thank you, so you know that works specifically with ubuntu (and then kubuntu, edubuntu?)? | 01:20 |
| MatthewV | gpfreitas, it will run you through configuring x, so hopefully that will solve your problems | 01:20 |
| Flannel | bastian: you're in it | 01:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sahasrara: It says all over it, requires windows.. but that is only for the software and support that they provide. It is a quality hardware modem. | 01:20 |
| gpfreitas | MatthewV: I mean, I've run this program before... What I wanted to ask is, what is likely to be the problem? | 01:21 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sahasrara: and yes I understand your frustration, I tried 10 modems that said LINUX comp, and didnt work for dodo | 01:21 |
| alienseer23 | dougsko, so I don not need the -loop, or -t commands? | 01:21 |
| bastian | Fine ... in short: I'd like to run a TFTP-Server for diskless booting | 01:21 |
| Ubuntu_noob | Because i do not like chat clients that have multiple im clients on it because all of my list in every client have the same group names so all of them are together in i dont like that | 01:21 |
| bastian | The problem is, that only localhost is served but no other host in the local network | 01:21 |
| gpfreitas | MatthewV: or better yet, what logs should I look for further information on the problem? | 01:21 |

| Jack_Sparrow | sahasrara: and Mepis and Knoppix and.. | 01:21 |
| alienseer23 | dougsko, just a mount command at the iso file, aimed at media/iso ? | 01:21 |
| sahasrara | Jack_Sparrow: aha, that's what i meant, i'm lucky so far not to have tried any, that's why i'm so cautious | 01:21 |
| bastian | It's Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Server | 01:21 |
| MatthewV | gpfreitas, logs will be in /var/log/X11/<something> | 01:21 |
| dougsko | alienseer23: ive never used the -l switch, and you only need the -t switch is the regular mount command doesnt recognise the filesystem on its own | 01:21 |
| EvilGrin | yay | 01:22 |
| Aneglus | Ubuntu_noob, and gaim doesn't work correctly | 01:22 |
| MatthewV | gpfreitas, sorry, thats /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 01:22 |
| bastian | I've searched the web but didn't find any answer for the problem | 01:22 |
| Ubuntu_noob | I got 6.06 LTS Intell on a amd64 machine | 01:22 |
| sahasrara | Jack_Sparrow: and i'm attached to the idea of ubuntu now, so i don't want to get stuck with a modem and have to shop for a new distro to use it on | 01:22 |
| bastian | There are no firewall rules set, there are no restrictions to hosts set in any way | 01:22 |
| alienseer23 | so you are telling me I can mount any number of iso files, giving them a seperate mount point in the media folder? | 01:22 |

| gorodek | hi, my question isnt ubuntu related, but hopefully someone can help me out. i have a dm-crypt crypted disk and want to permantly decrypt this disk, without temporary copying the data onto another disk. is dd if=/dev/mapper/crypted1 (temporary encrypted virtual disk of sdc) of=/dev/sdc a possible and an adaquate solution? what would you suggest and is there any tutorial out there? i couldnt find anything about decrypting on google ;( | 02:20 |
| mcphail | djm62: an extended warranty is worthwhile with any laptop | 02:20 |
| thybo | of where i can find vlc? i closed it but the music is still going on | 02:20 |
| fissy | {K}Lubby: yes.. XP isn't very helpful in doing port forwarding in my experience though. You'll have two layers of NAT between your email machine and the internet. it would be a lot easier to have your boxes reversed. or just get a gmail account ;-) | 02:20 |

| neutrinomass | melchezedik: It's a general guide form what I see ... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto . Again, in short all you need is 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' . Before that, make sure you backup your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file somewhere (if you mess up the configuration you might end up with a graphical display ) | 02:23 |

| lufis | Off-topic: I have a pretty old Compaq Presario notebook and its keyboard isn't working. I have to plug in an external keyboard in order to use one. The keyboard is detected by both Linux and Windows and responds to keystrokes (i.e., makes a beep when an invalid key is pressed) but as far as being able to type, it won't work! | 02:44 |
| steveO_ | djm62: no luck :( | 02:44 |
| tanlaan | is there something else I need to do other than change the horizontal and vertical settings? | 02:44 |
| dougsko | bartmaniac: plus, your system will run very smooth. you wont even know that the "dual core" isnt doing anything (and it very well might, i really have no idea) | 02:44 |
| Ademan | i'm looking specifically for libsvg, its a dependancy for cairo-dock apparently | 02:44 |

| Ademan | soundray: http://cairographics.org/libsvg makes me wonder if its just compiled into cairo | 02:45 |
| dougsko | lufis: reconfigure X and pick a different keyboard | 02:45 |
| steveO_ | I'm not sure I understand the --purge option. apt-get remove --purge chrony? | 02:45 |
| lufis | Dougsko: It isn't working in Linux or Windows | 02:46 |
| dougsko | steveO_: it gets rid of config files, which would otherise be left on the system | 02:46 |
| OneTruth | lufis: sounds like new keyboard time | 02:46 |
| linux_user400354 | jordanau, it's probably got a windows and linux port | 02:46 |
| dougsko | lufis: well then it could just be beat | 02:46 |

| Tomcat_ | Rippon: apt-get dist-upgrade :o | 03:46 |

| gorodek | soundray, thanks for your help. it seems to be the most easiest and most secure way. | 03:47 |

| sanmarcos | lufis, no | 04:05 |
| sanmarcos | lufis, put them back | 04:05 |
| lufis | sanmarcos: Damnit. | 04:05 |
| Jessehk | sharms, All that information is in the link that I posted in my thread. It's what I followed to install | 04:05 |
| sanmarcos | lufis, honestly if you dont know what you are doing, dont touch it | 04:05 |
| kitsuneofdoom | Ok, I've been trying to get the ATi drivers running, and, by using ATi's package, it actually seems to work, but fglrxinfo says it can't find a GLX visual and quits Ubuntu 6.06, ATi Radeon 200M. Note, the official packages do not work. | 04:05 |
| lufis | sanmarcos: That's the problem, I can't remember what I changed | 04:05 |
| sanmarcos | lufis, you should read about sys v init services | 04:06 |

| sharms | Jessehk: if you followed the thread, it would be working. Didn't that occur to you? | 04:06 |
| kitsuneofdoom | That is, the official Ubuntu packages | 04:06 |

| dapperdork | verbose, ive got a lainsys pcmcia card here that is giving me huge headaches. nothing works. there is a native driver that has to be built, so tahts out of the question. and ive tried three different ndiswrapper tutorials and still nothing. i can get the card in the prefs/networking dialog, but i just canNOT connect. its really frustrating. The strange part is that last night while following one tutorial i was able to use a camman | 04:07 |
| dapperdork | d ( I cant remember, somethingscan, like iwscan, but thats not it) and it showed my AP in the console. Signal strenghth and all. said it was encrypted and such. So i know its working, just wont ... work. | 04:07 |

| searayman | ardchoille: where dose it record too? | 04:35 |
| harisund | Flannel or perhaps I could download gnome from source and compile from gnome's website itself? | 04:36 |
| Flannel | harisund: eh, I'd stick with the package manager. | 04:36 |
| ardchoille | searayman: I'll admit the documentation leaves much to be desired. Try man istanbul or http://live.gnome.org/Istanbul But I know the app works, I've made several recordings myself. | 04:36 |
| harisund | Flannel or download a binary from the website? Say, something like a CVS snapshot ? | 04:36 |

| rixth | sanmarcos, I have ben to that page multiple times. | 04:37 |
| harisund | hmmm ok Flannel .. I was thinking of using checkinstall to create a .deb from the source I download ... oh well .. | 04:37 |

| hippie23 | is there a way to install ubuntu by compiling everything from source so its optomized for my hardware or do i have to switch gentoo or something? | 05:33 |
| sanmarcos | Arrick, and #ubuntu is softcore | 05:33 |
| sanmarcos | hippie23, apt-get source | 05:33 |
| Rookie- | every system has its beauty .... even winlose | 05:33 |
| Sir_Brizz | hippie23, gentoo is better for that, though it is possible with any distro | 05:33 |
| sanmarcos | hippie23, you wont get much optimizations really | 05:33 |
| seth_ | Gun_Smoke, try doing sudo apt-get update again. That has been known to fix problems like this. I would have to look at alient to come up with something more intelligent | 05:33 |
| Flannel | hippie23: you could. but, there is no "optomized for your harddrive" | 05:33 |
| Arrick | sanmarcos, Ive been in and out of here so many times its not funny, I run linux all the time, I know what Im asking | 05:33 |
| sanmarcos | hippie23, use gentoo if you want that stupidity. You only should do compiling with special CCFLAGS on cpu intensive stuff such as mplayer, video stuff, math, etc | 05:33 |
| hippie23 | I said hardware not harddrive | 05:33 |
| dougsko | sanmarcos: lol, if you really wanna get flamed head over to #openbsd, you cant even ask a non-newbie question there | 05:33 |

| Gun_Smoke | seth_: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. was the last line after apt-get update | 05:35 |

Believe me, i was a newbie once, eventually I understood the RTFM philosophy. Another thing that bothers me is stupid questions, we should set a notice on join for this channel | 05:37 |

| seth_ | damn, somebody has my id again. I'll be back in a minute after I reclaim my real nick, which is sethk | 05:47 |
| Coruscant | sanmarcos, i was hoping for a button or a code or something | 05:47 |
| gleaken | Sir_Brizz, but then the other machine will be out of place | 05:47 |
| sanmarcos | lmosher, we believe in standards, like the GNOME HIG, unified themes and icons. Well placed things. It tries to emulate the Apple philosophy somehow | 05:47 |

| azureal | ok, guys, i'm going to put this aside for a while... thx seth_ , Sir_Brizz , dougsko | 05:47 |
| Sir_Brizz | gleaken, Windows auto adjusts your monitor, linux sometimes misses a bit | 05:47 |
| azureal | later | 05:47 |
| sanmarcos | Coruscant, delete the parent folder?. Honestly do you know of any file managers that would have such a destructive feature? | 05:47 |
| Nimwei | Ok, and my last question for now - what's a decent IRC package to get so I can get off of my windows box once I get KDE installed? | 05:48 |

| Gun_Smoke | seth_: My update "sun" just showed up.. humm... | 05:48 |
| sanmarcos | Coruscant, you dont want that in hands of people that do not know what they are doing. Gnome believes in simplicity and ease of use. So short answer is no | 05:48 |
| Sir_Brizz | Nimwei, X-Chat | 05:48 |
| Coruscant | sanmarcos amarok does | 05:48 |
| sanmarcos | Nimwei, xchat, gnome-xchat, irssi | 05:48 |
| Coruscant | but it doesnt work for me | 05:48 |
| gleaken | Sir_Brizz, only problem is this is a slightly older plasma, and it does not actually pass back the right information to the computer it should. Resolution and such can't be probed on this that I know of | 05:48 |
| dougsko | Coruscant: the real power is in the cli | 05:48 |
| varsendaggr | Coruscant, what are you trying to do? | 05:48 |
| sanmarcos | Coruscant, amarok inst a file manager. and its a kde package. KDE puts a thousand features and their mother to a single app. Very clutterd IMHO | 05:48 |
| Sir_Brizz | gleaken, Auto Adjust on the screen should just auto center where the image is actually being displayed | 05:49 |
| gleaken | Sir_Brizz, PDP-502MX/1 it is a Pioneer plasma | 05:49 |
| sanmarcos | Coruscant, and follow what dougsko said, the real power is in the terminal | 05:49 |
| Coruscant | dougsko unfortunally im useless in unix im a born dos user unfortunatly | 05:49 |
| sethk | Gun_Smoke, I'm not sure what is going on there at all. but see if your package configuration was magically fixed as well. | 05:49 |
| dougsko | Coruscant: well what exectly are you trying to do? | 05:49 |
| sanmarcos | Coruscant, #bash might be more helpful at that | 05:49 |

| === Rinchen [n=Rinchen@unaffiliated/rescue] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| dougsko | Coruscant: because you can use globbing | 05:51 |
| sanmarcos | Coruscant, for f in *mp3; do rm -i "$f"; done, that will interactively ask you if you want to remove an mp3 file | 05:51 |
| Sir_Brizz | gleaken, awesome! | 05:52 |
| Trae | sanmarcos, someone in #ubuntu-offtopic tried it for me, but she had a CRT | 05:52 |
| Coruscant | dougsko theyre like 01 bandname songname.mp3 | 05:52 |
| sanmarcos | Coruscant, you can use *(mp3|MP3) also | 05:52 |
| Trae | hence | 05:52 |
| Nimwei | Ok, so where must I get the kubuntu theme..because the KDM install didn't include it. | 05:52 |

| lucky | sethk: thats what i was thinking, er, how would i fix that? | 06:53 |
| sethk | lucky, that can be fixed by rebuilding the kernel with the sata support compiled in, or by constructing an initrd file system that loads the missing module and continues the boot | 06:54 |

| DShepherd | tbl: but there's tons of how-tos, and tutorials and videos on the web talking about dual booting | 07:09 |
| sethk | tbl, you get a boot menu | 07:09 |
| tbl | sethk, cool, does ubuntu put that there? | 07:09 |
| RivercityOperato | I tried these steps, Mr Polite but I got an error on the third: | 07:09 |
| DShepherd | tbl: when ubuntu is being installed it installs grub. grub gives you a menu to choose from. | 07:09 |
| RivercityOperato | sudo apt-get install libdvdread3 sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh sudo apt-get install totem-xine | 07:10 |
| tbl | sweet | 07:10 |

| mrPolite | RivercityOperato: here ya go http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_DVD_playback_capability | 07:10 |
| sethk | tbl, depends what you mean. there has to be free space on the disk for the installer to use. | 07:11 |
| bcron | tbl: I was typing before you asked that question... you have to parition the drive | 07:11 |

| woodwizzle | Hansel, You mean put it in my fstab instead of letting g-v-m handle it | 07:39 |
| Hansel | woodwizzle - I would imagine it wont let you use it as a cam and mp3 player at the same time... you'll have to switch back and forth between functionalities | 07:39 |

| lostsync | goblyn, oh, i'm sorry i guess i misunderstood your question | 07:45 |

| rast4 | Ok let me try to be more clear, I installed Ubuntu 6.06 LTS on a Toshiba Satellite laptop, dual booting with Windows XP Pro. After the Ubuntu installed, I ran the program from http://www.getautomatix.com/ and download a ton of goodies I wanted. After I restarted, the system just hangs when I try to boot on Ubuntu | 09:43 |
| Maximinus | ooh, thanks Flannel - and thanks for asking trinidad_ - I've been right-clicking and clicking "open in browser" | 09:43 |

| rast4 | ok | 10:48 |
| ripper | np | 10:48 |
| Maximinus | rast4, even if you could get it to boot properly again, chances are that since Automatix seems to have borked that up, it's probably also borked other stuff up | 10:48 |
| paotzu | the only trouble I've seen is with video cards | 10:48 |
| Maximinus | so yeah, reinst sans Automatix sounds like a good plan | 10:48 |

| Abraxas_ | course, the ram survived through a motherboard short a year ago, so it seems the most likely part to fail now | 03:45 |
| erUSUL | xapaho: no problem | 03:45 |
| === meng [n=meng@218.111.154.218] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| zipper_ | Abraxas_, ofcourse, could be that one as well. Best thing would be to try swapping ram/other hardware to locate the problem | 03:45 |

| nny_ | zipper_ (EE) Failed to load module "nvidia" (module does not exist, 0) | 03:45 |
| Abraxas_ | zipper_: sadly swapping costs me money because I don't have backup hardware or friends with backup hardware | 03:45 |
| dpupp | mwe, ok, i hit enter and im back at a prompt... | 03:45 |
| nny_ | zipper_ after running binary installer | 03:45 |
| mwe | dpupp: good | 03:45 |
| zipper_ | nny_, try 'modprobe nvidia' | 03:45 |
| mwe | dpupp: that means it worked | 03:46 |
| nny_ | zipper_ that worked | 03:46 |
| mwe | dpupp: you running conky as normal user, right? not with sudo | 03:46 |
| === Supreme [n=Supreme@c83-250-13-250.bredband.comhem.se] has joined #ubuntu | ||

| mwe | good | 03:46 |
| === FaithX [n=FaithX@ns.linuxterminal.com] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| zipper_ | Abraxas_, i meant swapping with a friends, but hmm... Well, by experience, it's usually the rams, but it's hard to say if you dont have the ability to try out other hardware instead of the stuff you're using now | 03:46 |
| dpupp | i did add crontab info as root as well because i didnt know what i was doing. | 03:47 |
| zipper_ | nny_, :) | 03:47 |
| mwe | dpupp: don't | 03:47 |
| nny_ | zipper_ well it modprobed, but no X | 03:47 |
| zipper_ | you still get the same error from x? | 03:47 |
| mwe | dpupp: sudo crontab -e and remove it for root | 03:47 |
| dpupp | ok | 03:47 |
| nny_ | zipper_ yeah | 03:47 |
| Abraxas_ | zipper_: I'll just have to dig around and see if i can get some ram...I do have an idea where I could I guess..that should help, if the ram i get is enough t orun a game...and thanks again to everyone who helped...i was on the border of just tossin it out the window and starting again from scratch | 03:47 |
| zipper_ | nny_, hmm | 03:48 |
| nny_ | zipper_ been having this issue now round robin, X says it can't load nvidia | 03:48 |
| dpupp | mwe, there is nothing listed in there. odd. i could have sworn i added it. | 03:48 |
| nny_ | zipper_ nv works, as well as previos packages, but i'd like to fix this black screen issue | 03:48 |
| dpupp | mwe , "no crontab for root - using an empty one | 03:49 |
| dpupp | " | 03:49 |
| zipper_ | nny_, you could always try to reboot the system in order to get the nvidia module loaded properly, but i don't think it'll help much. I'm out of ideas, really | 03:49 |
| zipper_ | oooh | 03:49 |
| zipper_ | nny_, you were using the nv driver before? You havent tried the nvidia driver from the repositories? | 03:49 |
| === shesh [i=sheshbab@61.1.208.200] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
| redblades | Thunderous, I | 03:49 |
| nny_ | zipper_ no using repo driver | 03:49 |
| redblades | Thunderous, I checked, and it appears only one hard drive is mounted... | 03:49 |
| redblades | So, how would I go about mounting the other? | 03:50 |
| nny_ | zipper_ thats where i had the black screen issue, doen't exist with nv | 03:50 |
| redblades | I wish to use it as free space. | 03:50 |
| zipper_ | nny_, you should try getting the driver from the repositories instead, much easier than compiling the binary drivers | 03:50 |
| Abraxas_ | Hmmmm... are hardware beep-codes standard or different per manufacturer? | 03:50 |
| zipper_ | nny_, ah okay =/ | 03:50 |
| zipper_ | nny_, misunderstood you | 03:50 |
| nny_ | zipper_ ok i am gonna get that working again, but i'd liek to get rid of the balck screen issue | 03:50 |

| dpupp | mwe, because i did sudo crontab -e when adding it after i saw it didnt work for normal user... but its listed as normal user. | 03:52 |

| Abraxas_ | alright...about 1/10 the time on reboot, I get a set of beep codes..so maybe I should..I dunno...actually LISTEN to them next time they happen | 03:53 |
| nny_ | zipper_hmm my setup has been 100 stable | 03:53 |
| Abraxas_ | when ti happens, it's a series of long beeps | 03:53 |
| zipper_ | nny_, it's easy when you know what to do :)... think i could do it faster today as well, but still, not worth the time imho. | 03:53 |
| Abraxas_ | and I never paid attention to how many....it might be indefinite, but I'd doubt it | 03:53 |

| zipper__ | malefactor, no. You CAN get ntfs support, but it doesnt come without risk. I've used it a little with no problems, but you shouldn't use it for production servers, or store any data you care too much about on the ntfs drive you're using in linux | 04:45 |

| zipper__ | josh__, so you had an ati card before plugging in your nvidia card? | 04:45 |
| noona | and.. it gave me the option for creating the root partition and swap | 04:45 |
| josh__ | im wondering if it is compatible... and if it is... what "drivers" should i download | 04:46 |
| munsa | sudo rm .mplayer no? | 04:46 |
| josh__ | yeah | 04:46 |
| noona | then it demanded a reboot for the changes to be applied | 04:46 |
| Thunderous | do it in the gui, open Nautilus make sure u can see hidden files then right click delete .mplayer munsa | 04:46 |
| noona | it took 14 operations to do, while rebooting | 04:46 |
| noona | when it finished, it said can't load an OS | 04:46 |
| zipper__ | josh__, thats the reason. Ati uses sucky drivers, nvidia uses less-sucky, but still not that good, drivers. They are different. Hang on a minute, and i'll find a link for a good guide on how to install the nvidia driver | 04:46 |
| zipper__ | !nvidia > josh__ | 04:46 |

| CrazyDoode | uglymonke: if you go with dhcp you don't have to worry about it. If you go with fixed then you have to understand non-routeable IP ranges such as 192.168.0.1/255 | 04:53 |

| z1pp3r | uglymonke, a hub does nothing but spread out the signal to and from every port in it, to every port in it. If you have a dhcp working, getting a hub shouldnt affect it. Same goes for having a working setup of static ip's. | 04:53 |
| polpak | santa99: but in general it's better to just type the password. | 04:53 |

On the router from my isp i use 10.0.0.1-255 / 255.255.255.0 (wtf? i know, but it was predefined by my isp) dhcp, and my wireless router uses 192.168.1.1-255 / 255.255.255.0. Should i change the ip ranges to get a better setup? | 04:59 |
| erUSUL | loko555: iirc the port is used by nfs | 04:59 |

| xenocide | Hey everybody! When I try to start gdm is says module "nvidia" isn't installed. I have a 6600GT (Dual core GPU) with nvidia-glx installed via ubuntu-desktop. xserver crashes. Is there a fail-safe driver I can use to get X running? I've tried "nv"and "vga" with the same errors. Thanks | 04:59 |

| BusMaster | longwave: Mitrovarr : is there a way to pinpoint the issue? | 08:21 |
| ateoh211 | malefactor: it is a list of package repositories (sources for packages). point apt to packages | 08:22 |

When pinging a hosts IP ping runs as expected, but when pinging the hostname, response time is the same, but the interval between each ping becomes like 5 times greater. For instance pinging 4 times to the ip number finishes in 4 seconds, pinging to the host name finishes in 15 seconds. Both ways i get the same response time. A normal nslookup on the hostname resolves virtually instantly. | 10:56 |

| ccooke | Duski: if you run 'sudo fdisk -ls /dev/hda', does it find any partitions? | 11:52 |
| Duski | sorry for that paste | 11:52 |
| Renan_s2 | Duski, your hard drive is dying, I believe | 11:52 |
| Pntkl | hi | 11:52 |
| longwave | Duski that sounds like your drive is dying | 11:52 |

| ccooke | Duski: Unless you are incredibly, incredibly lucky... your disk is dead. Ship it out to a data recovery service if you absolutely must have the data back. | 11:53 |
| Duski | fdisk can't open that drive | 11:53 |

| longwave | Duski: download the hard drive testing software from the drive manufacturer | 11:54 |

| ccooke | Duski: unless you can pay for data recovery, forget it. | 11:55 |
| carpediem | ccooke, Duski: you can usually use dd to retreive an image of the drive, mount the image as a loop device and snag what's there. | 11:55 |
| tomo666 | longwave: renan_v2 cracked it thx for ur help | 11:55 |
| ccooke | carpediem: he said fdisk can't open the disk | 11:55 |
| nuaimat | hi guys, i am using ubuntu dapper drake 6.06 , i can't get wine to run , it prints out a lot of error msgs , but i cant figure out where is the problem | 11:55 |
| Renan_s2 | if no OS can detect it, then I would say that the drive is R.I.P. | 11:55 |
| ccooke | carpediem: or I'd have suggested that... | 11:55 |
| nuaimat | !wine | 11:55 |
| ubotu | wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information. | 11:55 |
| longwave | Duski: what filesystem is on that drive? | 11:56 |

| carpediem | ccooke: I don't think that precludes dd from working for sure, but I could be wrong. | 11:56 |
| tomo666 | Renan_s2: thx again cya | 11:56 |
| ccooke | carpediem: it does. dd has to read from the device, just like fdisk | 11:56 |
| longwave | yeah you might be able to dd it, skip the errors, and somehow find the partitions and superblock but it's not gonna be easy to recover | 11:56 |
| nuaimat | guys , a wine problem , any help ? | 11:57 |
| carpediem | ccooke: fdisk also needs to be able to read the partition table, dd doesn't | 11:57 |
| ccooke | carpediem: remember, it's unix - everything's a file. If the file doesn't work, you're... well. A word that I try not to use in public channels | 11:57 |
| tomo666 | longwave: thx again sorted it | 11:57 |
| longwave | it may be that nothing at all is readable | 11:57 |
| longwave | tomo666: ok np | 11:57 |

| birdmun | nuaimat, not that i can help but then no one can help with out knowing your problem :) | 11:58 |
| birdmun | nuaimat, what are you trying to run w/ wine? | 11:58 |
| ccooke | carpediem: that's a different error - if it can't *find* a partition table, or if it's invalid, that is. | 11:58 |
| nuaimat | birdmun: how can i tell you the problem , the log output is tooo long | 11:58 |
| askjf | !Wiki | 11:58 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about Wiki - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi | 11:58 |

| askjf | can i get the Wiki link? | 11:58 |
| longwave | nuaimat: put the output in a pastebin so we can all see it | 11:58 |
| nuaimat | ok longwave | 11:58 |

| Wibble- | hey - I'm trying to compile a program that uses g++. I had gcc 3.3 base etc installed already, but neither gcc nor g++ can be invoked by just "gcc" or "g++" - they need to use the full name - g++.3.3. This doesn't work with the programs I'm trying to compile - can anyone help? | 12:00 |
| ccooke | Duski: you dd the data from the device file, then mount that as a loop device - 'sudo dd if=/dev/hda of=disk_image bs=8192' would do it. | 12:00 |
