| nextse7en | Hi folks, is there a graphical disk manager build into xubuntu? | 07:16 |
| Jester45 | no | 07:17 |
| Jester45 | if you meaning a partitioner | 07:17 |
| Jester45 | gparted is a nice you can get from repos | 07:17 |
| nextse7en | Its not connected to the internet, unfortunaly. | 07:17 |
| nextse7en | What is the command then to format in FAT? | 07:17 |
| vidd_laptop | its on the install disk | 07:18 |
| nextse7en | Lol, doesn't have CD-ROM either. | 07:18 |
| vidd_laptop | ??? | 07:18 |
| vidd_laptop | how did you install? | 07:18 |
| Jester45 | can you get files from the internet | 07:18 |
| nextse7en | Its just a motherboard and HD mounted to the desk. | 07:18 |
| nextse7en | No, its a completly stand alone system. | 07:18 |
| Jester45 | so no usb or anything like that | 07:19 |
| nextse7en | Well, It has usb. | 07:20 |
| Jester45 | i think you can do mkfs -t ext3 /deb/hdaN | 07:20 |
| Jester45 | to format over fat | 07:20 |
| Jester45 | or try -t fat32 to make fat | 07:20 |
| Pumpernickel | -t vfat | 07:21 |
| Jester45 | or for /dev/hdaN you can use the mount point | 07:21 |
| nextse7en | thanks for the help, I'll try it. | 07:22 |
| nextse7en | Do I need to mount first? | 07:22 |
| Pumpernickel | Errr... formatting a mounted partition? | 07:23 |
| Pumpernickel | Don't. | 07:23 |
| Jester45 | listen to Pumpernickel | 07:23 |
| nextse7en | Hi there, one more question, how do I find out where a hard drive is if it is unformatted or unpartitioned? Is there a way to query for all hard drives attached to the system? | 07:26 |
| nextse7en | weather or not they are mounted? | 07:26 |
| nextse7en | I can't tell if the drive is being recognized at all... its the slave on the primary IDE controller, but fdisk won't open dev/hdb1 | 07:28 |
| Jester45 | run df | 07:28 |
| Jester45 | in a terminal | 07:28 |
| Jester45 | i think that should unmounted partitions | 07:29 |
| Pumpernickel | /dev/sd* is the new naming convention for all drives. | 07:29 |
| Jester45 | why did they do that | 07:29 |
| nextse7en | Hmm, I only see hdc1. Odd that it would show the primard hard drive on the primary ide controller as hdc1 | 07:29 |
| nextse7en | Very strange, the bios sees the drive, but df does not? | 07:30 |

| BFTD | this thing is keeping firefox from working, and is restricting IE from using gmail and yahoo mail | 09:04 |

| BFTD | ah | 09:11 |
| BFTD | ok | 09:11 |

| Ben_Cs | and ntfs partitions? | 03:08 |
| zials | it does... for me, in any case | 03:10 |
| TheSheep | Ben_Cs: you can enable automounting of usb devices in thunar->edit->preferences->advanced->volume manager | 03:11 |
| Ben_Cs | currently i'm using gnome (ubuntu) but i have xfce in college and i like it, except it's an old version and featureless. my comp is strong enough to handle gnome and kde (i like gnome better) but i was thinking about xfce | 03:13 |
| pleia2 | Ben_Cs: I think you'll be happy with the version in 7.04 :) | 03:14 |
| Ben_Cs | TheSheep: do you recommend xfce only to slow computers, or do you think it's a better window manager overall? | 03:14 |

| TheSheep | timposey: the grub is instlled? | 08:39 |
| ablomen | wepeel, google for sshfs :) | 08:40 |
| wepeel | ablomen, thanks | 08:40 |
| ablomen | np, good luck :) | 08:40 |
| timposey | TheSheep: It says that it installed it at the end of the installation. | 08:40 |
| TheSheep | :/ | 08:40 |
| wepeel | ablomen, hehe, I'll need it. On ubuntu, I'd just go to "places" than work from there | 08:41 |
| ablomen | yeah thats nautilus, thunar doesnt have that (you have to give some stuff away for performance :) ) | 08:41 |
| ablomen | but sshfs is easy enough, there are a lot of walktroughs, and all the apps can use the mounted dir and files in it than, which isnt the case with the way nautilus mounts them | 08:42 |
| wepeel | ablomen, ah, I get it. Can I use sshfs through an icon on the Desktop? | 08:43 |
| wepeel | i.e. set a launcher? | 08:43 |
| ablomen | well i think it will show up becouse its a mounted fs other then the root fs (just like cd's, windows filesystems, cameras etc do) otherwise you can just create a shortcut to the location the ssh fs is mounted to | 08:44 |
| ablomen | so yeah :) | 08:44 |
| wepeel | gotcha | 08:44 |
| ablomen | and you can add it to places etc :) | 08:44 |
| ablomen | the only thing your going to have to figure out is how to mount it at boot, but i think you can just add it to fstab if my memmory serves me right | 08:45 |

| TheSheep | wepeel: that would be scp | 08:48 |

| ablomen | or listen to TheSheep :) | 08:48 |
| ablomen | thats a better idea i guess :P | 08:48 |
| TheSheep | wepeel: if it's just single files you want to copy, you can use scp just like you would use normal cp. only prefix the remote files with the host name and colon, like myhost:somedir/myfile | 08:50 |
| wepeel | Yeah, I use scp while ssh'ed into my home machine, but I was just looking for the convenience of having a remote folder I could access whenever I needed something | 08:51 |
| wepeel | chalk one up for nautilus, I suppose | 08:51 |
| ablomen | wepeel, sshfs then :) | 08:52 |
| TheSheep | wepeel: ah, that's sshfs :) | 08:52 |

| stuart- | woo | 11:53 |
| stuart- | it looks quieter here | 11:53 |
| cellofellow | yes, very | 11:53 |
| stuart- | well i find it unfair that xp performs better than gnome on the same pc. considering linux > windows | 11:54 |
| cellofellow | so, if you are using Xubuntu, I'd scrap Totem altogether and use MPlayer. | 11:54 |
| stuart- | which is why i'm on xubuntu | 11:54 |
| stuart- | cellofellow, getting it now. | 11:54 |
| cellofellow | my PC would be slowish with Win98. :) | 11:54 |
| cellofellow | actually, no, pretty quick with 98, but slow with XP. | 11:54 |
| stuart- | 98 SE was the best windows ever | 11:55 |
| cellofellow | Sort of missed that one, I've used 98 and ME and 2000 though. | 11:55 |
| stuart- | ME was the worst, imho | 11:55 |
| cellofellow | Before 1998 or 1999 my family had Apple stuff. | 11:55 |
| cellofellow | My mom still uses ME, and I keep trying to get her to use Xubuntu on that old lappy. | 11:56 |
| cellofellow | for MPlayer, I'd install mplayer, mplayer-skins, libxine-extracodecs, and w32codecs. | 11:57 |
| stuart- | cellofellow, any idea why it says error opening video/output device? | 11:57 |
| cellofellow | right click the app (like xmms) and choose Preferences, and under Video use xv | 11:58 |
| cellofellow | or something similar. | 11:58 |
| cellofellow | it usually ties to use xmga for some reason, which only works on Matrox MGA video cards. | 11:59 |
| stuart- | cellofellow, works. nice | 11:59 |

| stuart- | cellofellow, w32codecs aren't installable though, any idea where'd i get windowscodecs? | 12:00 |
| cellofellow | one sec... getting you a link | 12:00 |
| stuart- | coo | 12:00 |
| cellofellow | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu | 12:00 |
| cellofellow | I use VLC for playing DVDs if you have a DVD player. MPlayer works but doesn't do menus. | 12:01 |
| stuart- | thanks | 12:01 |
| cellofellow | if you running 64bit version, use w64codecs of course. | 12:02 |
| stuart- | w32codecs has no installation candidate | 12:03 |
| stuart- | cellofellow, oh sry. gotta update | 12:03 |
| cellofellow | :-) | 12:04 |
| cellofellow | you should have just copy/pasted the code from that little box under Adding the Repositories. | 12:04 |
| Jester45 | w32codecs is not in repo for licensing reasons you can get from a 3rd party repo or just download a /deb | 12:05 |
| cellofellow | I'm getting him the Medibuntu repo. | 12:05 |
| stuart- | ok bath while downloading | 12:05 |
| stuart- | brb | 12:05 |
| stuart- | cellofellow, .wmv plays smooth on your pc with just w32codecs and mplayer? | 12:08 |
| cellofellow | stuart-: yeah | 12:08 |
| Jester45 | stuart-, does it not play smooth on yours? | 12:10 |
| stuart- | Jester45, used to, but that was on ubuntu. haven't tried yet | 12:11 |
| stuart- | hm, deluge isn't in apt-get. | 12:11 |
| cellofellow | nope, try getdeb.net | 12:11 |
| Jester45 | no | 12:11 |
| Jester45 | get it from the deluge website getdeb's is a version old | 12:11 |
| Jester45 | deluge-torrent.org/ | 12:12 |
| stuart- | neat. thanks. | 12:12 |

| stuart- | what's the java6-sdk package again? | 12:14 |
| cellofellow | development stuff. compiler, etc. | 12:14 |
| stuart- | i mean the name for apt-get | 12:14 |
| Jester45 | stuart-, if you just want to run java try sun-java6-jre | 12:15 |
| stuart- | Jester45, what about for firefox | 12:15 |
| cellofellow | stuart-: it's sun-javaN-jdk, where N is a number either 5 or 6. | 12:15 |
| Jester45 | i will look | 12:15 |
| Jester45 | 4 also | 12:15 |
| cellofellow | stuart-: sudn-javaN-plugin for firefox stuff. | 12:15 |
| Jester45 | yea thats what i was thinking | 12:16 |
| stuart- | okay. 35MB d/l. now i REALLY wanna bathe. brb | 12:16 |
| cellofellow | how slow is your inet? | 12:17 |
| stuart- | dsl, around 30k/sec | 12:17 |
| cellofellow | mine too | 12:17 |
| Jester45 | and flash is | 12:18 |
| cellofellow | flashplugin-nonfree | 12:18 |
| Jester45 | flashplugin-nonfree | 12:19 |
| Jester45 | darn | 12:19 |
| cellofellow | that package actually just downloads the flash player from macromedia anyway, with wget. | 12:19 |
| Jester45 | and installes | 12:19 |
| cellofellow | yeah, which is why it's a nice thing. | 12:20 |
| cellofellow | Only trouble is, I'm still contemplating how to install it on an offline box. | 12:20 |
| cellofellow | I copied the deb package and the downloaded tarball to a USB drive. | 12:21 |
| Jester45 | download it store it and use your host file to map macromedia's site to localhost | 12:22 |
| Jester45 | so that it downloads from localhost and not the real ip | 12:22 |
| Jester45 | but thats a lot of work | 12:23 |
