| ubotu | To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse | 02:16 |

| w30 | DaveyJ, i have done that but its been so long ago. It entails passing the display option of something like -display 0:1 instead of the default 0:0 to X | 02:16 |
|---|
| foxjwill_ | thanks | 02:16 |

| profoX` | foxjwill_: it's not advised.. but the best thing until now is ntfs-3g I think | 02:16 |

| tnzr | evan_: plug the desktop into your laptop, youll have to specify an internal address on your laptops nic (not wireless).. 192.168.0.1 or something, then set an ip on your PC, set its gateway to your laptops nic (192.168.0.1), then on your laptop, you could forward info coming in on 192.168.0.1 to the wireless card, using hte route command I believe. If route is incapable of something like that, youd probably definitely have to use iptables | 03:42 |

| eternalswd | wubrgamer, the 1.5.0.6 update was to fix a regression for windows media plugin, so windows only | 05:52 |
|---|
| UncleOp22 | matthew_w: If it's really "all correct", consider going the other way around: windows into ubuntu/linux. If that works, then you may need to specifically tell the windoze vncserver to allow external connections. But IIRC, it pretty much "just worked" for me. | 05:52 |

| Agrajag- | gday, i've put a dapper cd in a breezy machine, edited the sources.list to only have this line: "deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 6.06 _Dapper Drake_ - Release i386 (20060531)] / dapper main restricted" however an apt-get update doesn't seem to actually do anything - it seems as if it doens't think i have the dapper cd mounted. how can i fix this? | 06:18 |
