| Eagle_101 | Chikubu: yeah, if you do the "select partitions" you should be fine | 03:16 |
| Eagle_101 | it might write over your / partition, but if you have a /home or other it won't touch that | 03:16 |
| Chikubu | thats fine, nothing there i want to save, just thougth the in place structure might help | 03:17 |
| Eagle_101 | Chikubu: ah well if I'm right, you could simply delete your existing file system (if you don't want to keep any of it) | 03:18 |

| maxamillion | greg_: i do only what i can :) | 03:35 |
| bkingx | Eagle_101: yeah, I saw that too. | 03:36 |
| bkingx | Tried it, but no go. | 03:36 |
| Eagle_101 | ok, how did it go? | 03:36 |
| bkingx | Seems the card isn't recognized at all. | 03:36 |
| Eagle_101 | bkingx: ok, try lspci and paste that into a pastebin somewhere | 03:36 |
| Eagle_101 | lspci in a terminal | 03:37 |
| bkingx | Eagle_101: this is the only line that applies: 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Belkin Unknown device 701f (rev 20) | 03:38 |
| Eagle_101 | Unknown device eh? | 03:38 |
| Chikubu | bbiab, need to look at something besides computuer screen for a bit, uncross eyes | 03:39 |
| Eagle_101 | mmm yours uses the bcm43xx driver as well :S | 03:40 |
| bkingx | seems like it. | 03:40 |
| Eagle_101 | ok as you are using the same driver have a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102 | 03:42 |
| Eagle_101 | which got the bcm43xx driver working for mw | 03:43 |
| Eagle_101 | *me | 03:43 |
| bkingx | OK <looking> | 03:43 |
| Eagle_101 | if you just want it to work see | 03:43 |
| Eagle_101 | To use the native bcm43xx driver: | 03:43 |
| Eagle_101 | Download http://ubuntuforums.org/attachment.p...8&d=1177147133 and double click it to install. Reboot. Enjoy wireless. (this should work, but if for some reason it fails, see the troubleshooting) | 03:43 |
| Wolfcastle | can someone please paste their sources.list? | 03:43 |
| bkingx | OK, thanks Eagle_101, I'll give it a shot | 03:44 |
| Eagle_101 | don't know if it will work and no gaurrentee | 03:44 |
| Eagle_101 | but the latter (instaling the native 43xx driver should do it, if thats your problem) | 03:44 |
| bkingx | That latter link doesn't seem to be working for me | 03:45 |
| Eagle_101 | mmm yeah | 03:46 |
| Eagle_101 | hang on | 03:46 |

| bkingx | perfect ;) | 03:47 |
| Eagle_101 | its in the link I gave you, please keep in mind that this is targeted or another driver | 03:47 |
| Eagle_101 | err card | 03:47 |
| Eagle_101 | but its the same driver as far as I know | 03:47 |

| Chikubu | hey, someone talk to me about windoz emulation in xubuntu | 04:37 |
| Chikubu | i had a few kids cds i wanted to run if possible, i had copy the cd's to iso files and used a program to mount them as a virtual cd, think i can do that under xubuntu? | 04:38 |
| T` | Chikubu, you can just mount the iso's in linux | 04:40 |
| T` | you can use -o loop | 04:40 |
| T` | mount -o loop file.iso /mnt/iso | 04:40 |
| Chikubu | ok | 04:41 |
| Chikubu | the games are low end, not directx cpu intensive, think wine can handle? | 04:41 |
| T` | i dont know | 04:41 |
| T` | never used wine | 04:41 |
| Chikubu | ok, ill be trying then :) | 04:42 |
| Chikubu | my thought is if win98 can run it xubuntu should | 04:42 |

| MaxFrames | ok, so i'll try that | 12:14 |
| MaxFrames | i wonder what the problem with the cd is. i booted the laptop with win me and read the cd no problem. it's only when i boot from the cd that it becomes to skip and it takes ages | 12:15 |
| MaxFrames | becomes=begins | 12:16 |
| predaeus | MaxFrames, you can do a cd check in the boot menu, maybe it is a faulty burn | 12:16 |
| predaeus | MaxFrames, also you can do a md5 checksum check on the .iso image after downloading before burning to see if it is ok. | 12:17 |

| MaxFrames | so no mini cd for x-ubuntu? | 12:30 |
| TheSheep | MaxFrames: it will only install the base system, you then need to install the 'xubuntu-desktop' package yourself | 12:30 |
| MaxFrames | ok | 12:30 |

| === insmod [n=insmod@d141-13-36.home.cgocable.net] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| alnokta | any idea? | 02:14 |
| R[a] ndom | dont think so | 02:14 |
| R[a] ndom | but if should appear in thunar | 02:14 |
| R[a] ndom | if you click on it in thunar it will mount it | 02:14 |
| R[a] ndom | or you can mount it manually | 02:15 |
| alnokta | how manually please? | 02:15 |
| R[a] ndom | $sudo mount what where | 02:17 |
| R[a] ndom | the problem is I'm not sure wht flash disks come up as.. | 02:17 |
| R[a] ndom | I usually mount external HDDs | 02:17 |
| R[a] ndom | like "sudo mount /dev/sdd2 /media/ipod" for my pod | 02:17 |
| R[a] ndom | you have to know the /dev entry that the flash disk comes up as | 02:17 |
| R[a] ndom | http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/11637.html | 02:18 |
| R[a] ndom | that seems to cover it | 02:18 |
| alnokta | huh | 02:24 |
| alnokta | cool | 02:24 |
| alnokta | i just plugged it | 02:24 |
| alnokta | and the folder opened :) | 02:24 |
| alnokta | and an icon on the desktop | 02:24 |

| DaBeowulf | 'lo. What could it be that after every new boot/session I seem to have lost a few megabytes of space on my xubuntu partition? | 07:10 |
| DaBeowulf | It's worrying me as it is very tiny to start with. | 07:11 |
| DaBeowulf | Well, not lost I guess but filled with something. | 07:12 |
| Pumpernickle | Logging and package caching could be the cause. | 07:12 |
| DaBeowulf | Is there a way to search for all files created/modified after a certain time? | 07:12 |
| DaBeowulf | And what is package caching? =o | 07:14 |
| Pumpernickle | Sure, or at least sort of. You can use `find` to find files that have a last modified timestamp later than a given time. | 07:16 |
| Pumpernickle | As for package caching, by default anytime you install a new package, the .deb is cached on disk. | 07:16 |
| DaBeowulf | And old ones don't get automatically deleted? | 07:17 |
| Pumpernickle | No, you'd have to run `sudo apt-get clean` or manually remove them from /var/cache/apt/archives. | 07:18 |
