Zach_07 | Here is my current situation: I want to access a file called wine.sh located at my e:\ and I want to access it with Xubuntu, So does anyone know how to do this? | 02:53 |
=== oshiii-_^ [n=h1@unaffiliated/oshiii/x-3278] has joined #xubuntu | ||
Zach_07 | ?? | 02:56 |
Catoptromancy | Zach_07, /media | 02:56 |
Zach_07 | whats that mean? | 02:56 |
Catoptromancy | the / is root | 02:56 |
Catoptromancy | and media is media directory | 02:57 |
Catoptromancy | in there you find flash drives | 02:57 |
Zach_07 | so how can I access e:\ in Xubuntu? | 02:57 |
Catoptromancy | errr | 02:57 |
Zach_07 | for xbox | 02:57 |
Zach_07 | that is | 02:57 |
Catoptromancy | is it on harddrive? | 02:57 |
Zach_07 | yes my hd is split into c d e f g | 02:57 |
=== oshiii-_^ [n=h1@unaffiliated/oshiii/x-3278] has joined #xubuntu | ||
Catoptromancy | is it fat32 ? | 02:58 |
Zach_07 | no fatx( xbox's fat32) | 02:58 |
Catoptromancy | can you even have that many partitions? | 02:58 |
Zach_07 | yes | 02:58 |
Catoptromancy | i always thought limit was 4 | 02:58 |
Zach_07 | not because microsofts fatx supports that | 02:58 |
Catoptromancy | well it should be in /media | 02:58 |
Catoptromancy | xbox is connected to pc? | 02:58 |
Zach_07 | ok Ill try that | 02:58 |
Zach_07 | no | 02:58 |
Zach_07 | I modded my xbox | 02:59 |
Zach_07 | and added 120gb hd | 02:59 |
Catoptromancy | xubuntu running on xbox? | 02:59 |
Pici | Is Xubuntu the same as this xUbuntu? | 02:59 |
Zach_07 | Yes by DVD | 02:59 |
Catoptromancy | heh | 02:59 |
Pici | http://www.xbox-linux.org/wiki/XUbuntu ?? is the site that Zach_07 linked me in #ubuntu | 02:59 |
Catoptromancy | Zach_07, if its not in media | 02:59 |
Zach_07 | Ya thats for xbox Ubuntu | 02:59 |
Catoptromancy | you need not mount it | 02:59 |
Catoptromancy | need to | 02:59 |
=== oshiii-_^ [n=h1@unaffiliated/oshiii/x-3278] has joined #xubuntu | ||
Zach_07 | Pici: xUbuntu is for xbox and Xubuntu is for pc | 03:00 |
Pici | Zach_07: Well thats confusing. | 03:00 |
Zach_07 | I know | 03:00 |
Zach_07 | Catoptromancy: what do I need to do? | 03:01 |
Catoptromancy | im not quite sure | 03:01 |
Catoptromancy | but look ib /media first | 03:01 |
Zach_07 | ok Ill check it out now | 03:01 |
Catoptromancy | it should lsit all your active partitions | 03:01 |
Catoptromancy | if its not there you need to mount it | 03:01 |
Catoptromancy | or edit fstab | 03:02 |
Zach_07 | ok to boot up xUbuntu it will take a few minutes because Im booting by DVD disc which is slow | 03:03 |

Catoptromancy | cd /media | 03:08 |
Zach_07 | huh, funny it says command not found for cd.. | 03:09 |
Catoptromancy | uh | 03:09 |
Zach_07 | this must be a screwed up linux | 03:09 |
Catoptromancy | cd (space) .. | 03:09 |
Zach_07 | it works | 03:09 |
Zach_07 | but | 03:09 |
Zach_07 | displays nothing | 03:09 |
Catoptromancy | dir | 03:10 |
Zach_07 | works | 03:10 |
Catoptromancy | use thnar | 03:10 |
Catoptromancy | thunar | 03:10 |
Zach_07 | so dir /media? | 03:10 |
Catoptromancy | its alot easier | 03:10 |
Zach_07 | Is thunar on the xUbuntu? | 03:10 |
Catoptromancy | its the file manager | 03:10 |
Zach_07 | ok Ill look right now | 03:10 |
Zach_07 | I can't find thunar but I see Xfce file-manager | 03:11 |
Catoptromancy | sure use that | 03:12 |
Zach_07 | ok | 03:12 |
Catoptromancy | You should learn some basics if your going to use Linux | 03:13 |
Zach_07 | I know | 03:13 |
Zach_07 | ok, so Im at Xfce file manager | 03:13 |
Catoptromancy | find a folder called media | 03:14 |
Zach_07 | ok | 03:14 |
=== oshiii-_^ [n=h1@unaffiliated/oshiii/x-3278] has joined #xubuntu | ||
Zach_07 | I found /media/cdrom /media/usb0 /media/usb2 | 03:15 |
Catoptromancy | so look for your file | 03:15 |
Zach_07 | Well, it only detects my dvd files and not hd... what a piece of crap software. Im going to switch my linux to a different xbox linux | 03:16 |
Catoptromancy | you need to mount | 03:17 |
Catoptromancy | xubuntu is probably the easiest to use | 03:18 |
Catoptromancy | is there an irc channel for xboxubuntu? | 03:18 |
Zach_07 | yes this is it | 03:19 |
Catoptromancy | or if you wait around, someone else can help | 03:19 |
Zach_07 | only other is xbox linux channel | 03:19 |
Zach_07 | thats fine | 03:19 |
Catoptromancy | maybe try that | 03:19 |
Catoptromancy | heh | 03:19 |
Catoptromancy | linux is generally the same | 03:19 |
Catoptromancy | with mounting | 03:19 |
Zach_07 | It seems so, by the way I actually have used suse linux live before and I could get around | 03:20 |
Catoptromancy | xbox linux channel should be alot more help | 03:20 |
Zach_07 | Well usually no one answers when you ask a question, probably because their snobbs | 03:20 |
Catoptromancy | actually most people here are idle | 03:20 |
Catoptromancy | or dont know | 03:21 |
Zach_07 | Why what are they doing | 03:21 |
Catoptromancy | sitting in channel 24/7 | 03:21 |
Zach_07 | oh | 03:21 |
Catoptromancy | they do other things too heh | 03:21 |
Zach_07 | yea of course | 03:21 |
Catoptromancy | if you ask a question you might need to wait a long while | 03:21 |
Catoptromancy | and re-ask later | 03:22 |
pleia2 | Zach_07: are you sure you're in the right channel? the wiki explains that Xubuntu (what this channel is for) is something different than the xbox thing | 03:22 |
pleia2 | the xubuntu this channel is about doesn't have drive names | 03:22 |
Zach_07 | Well this channel is probably not for the xbox version: PIKI | 03:22 |
pleia2 | like e:\ and such | 03:22 |
Catoptromancy | e:\ isnt labelled e: in linux | 03:23 |
Catoptromancy | well it could be | 03:23 |
pleia2 | nope | 03:23 |
Catoptromancy | someone could setup fstab to name them that | 03:23 |
Catoptromancy | heh | 03:23 |
pleia2 | if they like pain ;) | 03:23 |
Zach_07 | ok my xbox hardrive boots by evox os, it has c:, D:, E:, G: partitions on it | 03:23 |
The-Kernel | I need a shell account of which I can use an IRC client | 03:23 |
pleia2 | Zach_07: yeah, I have no idea what that means | 03:24 |
Zach_07 | oh ok | 03:24 |
pleia2 | you probably want to speak with xbox linux folks :) | 03:24 |
Catoptromancy | xbox linux channel would be much more helpful | 03:24 |
Zach_07 | ok...so wheres the channel? | 03:24 |
Catoptromancy | 03:24 | |
Zach_07 | Im tired of using google | 03:25 |
pleia2 | I'd never even heard of this xbox ubuntu before tonight ;) | 03:25 |
Zach_07 | oh well now you know | 03:25 |
Zach_07 | THANKS PPL WHO HELPED ME :) :) :) | 03:27 |
pleia2 | the wiki says there are mailing lists for support | 03:27 |

Before I do that, is there anything that I'll need for installation so I don't have to boot back and forth to get some kind of information? I already know what I'll do for partitioning, but I don't know what else I need to know. | 05:11 |
RandomDestructn | not that I can think of | 05:11 |
RandomDestructn | plus you can browse the net from the livecd | 05:11 |
RandomDestructn | while its installing | 05:11 |

jet65 | How long does typical install take? | 05:12 |

RandomDestructn | say half an hour if youre thinking about it? | 05:12 |
RandomDestructn | but I really don't remember | 05:12 |
jet65 | OK, well as long as it's under an hour. I guess I'm gonna get started on it, thanks very much for the help :) | 05:13 |

TheSheep | snax: yes of course, here is your explanation: it doesn't | 08:33 |
snax | installing xubuntu-desktop pulls in significant portions of gnome | 08:34 |
TheSheep | snax: like? | 08:34 |
snax | gnome-panel, gnome-games, gnome-utils, gnome-applets | 08:35 |
snax | and tomboy, which in turn pulls in all of mono | 08:35 |
TheSheep | snax: no, these are definitely not in xubuntu | 08:36 |
TheSheep | snax: I have a fresh install here | 08:36 |
snax | tell that to aptitude | 08:36 |
TheSheep | snax: well, learn to use it properly | 08:36 |
snax | apt-get is also keen installing those packages | 08:37 |
snax | do I need to disable installing suggested packages? | 08:37 |
TheSheep | snax: my guess is that it installs some package that has two alternatives, and because you already have (some) ubuntu installation, it picks the alternative wrong, pulling in some gnome app | 08:39 |
snax | hmm | 08:40 |

ubotu | A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 08:51 |
thhp | Good point... my issue is that XFCE doesn't retain the "manage desktop" setting across logins | 08:53 |
thhp | I installed xubuntu from Ubuntu via "apt-get install xubuntu-desktop", btw | 08:53 |
thhp | What I get at login is my XFCE desktop, briefly, and then my old gnome one | 08:54 |

student002 | apt-get update? | 02:27 |
noah1989 | dunno, maybe? | 02:28 |
student002 | I tried that..it does all this stuff then it says "error: http://download.tuxfamil.org feisty release: the following signature couldn't be verified because the public key is not available | 02:28 |
noah1989 | i'm not using ubuntu myself, but installed it on my parent's machine (very old computer) | 02:28 |
student002 | W: you may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems" | 02:29 |
student002 | lol but that's what I ran | 02:29 |
noah1989 | ^^ | 02:29 |
student002 | .. | 02:31 |
student002 | okay I removed the tuxofamily repo from sources.list | 02:32 |
Pres-Gas | Another thing is that third party repos can occasionally break things | 02:32 |
student002 | Ran apt-get update again and it does some stuff and says at the end "fetched 4B in 3s, Reading package lists...done" | 02:33 |

Pres-Gas | It could explain the messages you are getting....unresolved dependencies and whatnot. | 02:33 |
student002 | Pres-Gas, so how do I repair them? | 02:33 |
Pres-Gas | well, if you have removed the repo, you could try "apt-get dist-upgrade", student002. | 02:33 |
Pres-Gas | Since you have already apt-get update-ed | 02:34 |
student002 | k 1 of the packages it wants to upgrade is mozilla-thunderbird | 02:35 |
student002 | and it says 403 access forbidden E: unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing | 02:35 |
student002 | gonna try to run it again with --fix-missing | 02:36 |
student002 | Pres-Gas, that worked..it upgraded 3 packages..But I still get that broken packages message when I try to install xfce4 | 02:37 |
Pres-Gas | So, you are running reg ubuntu now? | 02:39 |
student002 | I tried 'apt-get install xfdesktop4' but it gives me an error saying "E: Package xfdesktop4 has no installation candidate" | 02:40 |
student002 | I've been running xubuntu | 02:40 |
student002 | any ideas? | 02:43 |

TABASCO | Hello again | 02:47 |
TABASCO | Maybe you remember I asked yesterday about the system requirements of Xubuntu | 02:48 |
TABASCO | anyone of you said it is possible to install it on a 2gb hd | 02:48 |
TABASCO | but now the installer aborts and if you configure the partitions manually he says that he needs 2gb diskspace for the root-partition | 02:49 |
TABASCO | and 256 mb for the swap | 02:49 |
TABASCO | what can I do now? | 02:49 |
grazie | I'd say 2G was a bit tight for a standard install. 2.5G + swap minimum (for feisty) in my opinion. Which install cd do you have? | 02:51 |
TABASCO | gutsy gibbon beta | 02:52 |
TABASCO | To install Xubuntu, you need 1.5 GB of free space on your hard disk. | 02:53 |
TABASCO | this is what the xubuntu page says | 02:53 |
TABASCO | well wait a minute | 02:53 |
TABASCO | how can I find out which version of xubuntu I actually use? | 02:54 |
grazie | well it's it not wrong for older distros, but feisty (and I think gutsy too) need a bit more space. That figure gives you no room to do updates | 02:55 |
TABASCO | what about dapper? | 02:55 |
TABASCO | because it's a laptop, and I have only that 2 gigabyte disk | 02:55 |
TABASCO | dell is going to ship a bigger one but for the moment I have only that small.. | 02:56 |
TheSheep | TABASCO: you asked how much it takes after install, and I said 'about 2GB' | 02:56 |
TheSheep | TABASCO: it needs some free space to operate, obviously | 02:56 |
grazie | TABASCO, for version one way > cat /etc/issue | 02:57 |
TABASCO | I asked about if I can install it on a 2 gb disk :) | 02:57 |
TheSheep | TABASCO: you can do the server install (which will install the base system only) and then install xfce and whatever applications you need | 02:57 |
TABASCO | mhm, yes.. | 02:57 |
TheSheep | TABASCO: then I didn't understand you, I'm sorry | 02:57 |
TABASCO | no problem :) | 02:57 |
TheSheep | TABASCO: I think you can only do the server install with the alternate cd | 02:58 |
TABASCO | mhm, that is going to be a bit complicated.. | 02:58 |
TABASCO | well, it's not me who is going to install it but a friend.. | 02:58 |
TABASCO | does anyone knows about dapper? | 02:59 |
TABASCO | can I install xubuntu on a 2gb disk with dapper? | 02:59 |
TheSheep | TABASCO: it doesn't grow that much from version to version | 02:59 |
TheSheep | TABASCO: I'd say it's about the same, maybe several hundreds MB less | 02:59 |
TABASCO | TheSheep: Well, for which version are the system requirements on the website? | 03:00 |
TheSheep | TABASCO: for the current stable, in this case feisty | 03:00 |
TABASCO | TheSheep: But the feisty installer says that the root partition requires 2 gigabytes | 03:01 |
TheSheep | TABASCO: use the manual partitioning | 03:02 |
TheSheep | TABASCO: it should fit | 03:02 |
Catoptromancy | heh | 03:03 |
Catoptromancy | only 2 people talking, not really need to highlight every line | 03:04 |
TheSheep | Catoptromancy: habit | 03:05 |
Catoptromancy | hehe | 03:05 |

TheSheep | DM|: xubuntu uses gdm... | 07:24 |
DM| | hmm | 07:24 |
DM| | whats XDM then | 07:24 |

ubotu | xdm: X display manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:1.0.5-2 (feisty), package size 165 kB, installed size 764 kB | 07:25 |

DM| | TheSheep no cigar | 07:36 |
TheSheep | DM|: maybe try putting 'xfce4-session' to your .xsession? | 07:37 |

DM| | etc/X11/Xsession? | 07:37 |

hyper__ch | well, I used krfb - that just works fine | 07:38 |

TheSheep | DM|: you might have to reate it | 07:39 |
TheSheep | create | 07:39 |
=== TheSheep curses his keyboard. | ||
DM| | yeah its not there, what should i put in the file | 07:39 |
TheSheep | DM|: just 'xfce4-session' (without the quotes) and an empty line | 07:39 |
hyper__ch | TheSheep: will an upgrade to gutsy cause any problems with dm-crypt/luks? | 07:40 |
TheSheep | hyper__ch: never tried | 07:40 |
DM| | thesheep lol still loads gnome | 07:41 |
hyper__ch | TheSheep: in feisty I had to load first some kernel modules | 07:42 |
TheSheep | DM|: I give up | 07:42 |
DM| | TheSheep got it... you start it with the custom command startxcfe4 | 07:42 |
winkerbean | We have an internal (wired) network and external (wireless) internet access. Anybody know how I can use both at the same time? | 07:43 |
TheSheep | DM|: that also starts X | 07:43 |
TheSheep | winkerbean: just set the default gateway to the wireless and a route for the internal network to the internal gateway | 07:43 |

NullName | hey you guys.....if I used ssh to connect to a box on my LAN and downloaded a torrent, through ssh. Would this hide that i'm downloading a torrent from my isp?....what if I also renamed the file to a "schoolwork.zip" | 08:28 |
winkerbean | TheSheep: Heh. Thanx just the same. | 08:29 |
NullName | the reason being with ssh that it is encrypted | 08:29 |
TheSheep | NullName: it hides the fact that you're transmitting the file itself, but downloading the *content* to which that file points is an entirely different thing | 08:30 |
TheSheep | NullName: try reading about the torrent protocol on wikipedia, for example | 08:30 |
NullName | thanks | 08:32 |
NullName | yea I'm reading about ssh on wikipedia...and to my understanding it hides it...so I have to also encrypt the file that it points to? | 08:33 |
NullName | reading about torrent will help me understand how the content is stored? | 08:34 |
NullName | I mean I think I understand how torrents work. | 08:34 |
TheSheep | NullName: admins don't usually punish copying of the toreent files themselves, they detect downloading of the content via the torrent protocol | 08:35 |
NullName | but that can't detect that I'm using the torrent protocol if I'm using ssh on the lan? | 08:37 |
NullName | my other computer has the torrent client and is recieiving the file. I'm just controlling the torrent client. | 08:38 |
NullName | then later I will transfer the file to my box | 08:38 |
NullName | using scp | 08:38 |
TheSheep | NullName: he can detect it where your ssh tunnel ends | 08:38 |
NullName | darn | 08:38 |
