| The_Kernel | jimisrvrox it appears that your disc is bad | 05:57 |
| The_Kernel | re download the ISO and burn it again | 05:57 |
| The_Kernel | run a checksum | 05:57 |
| jimisrvrox | I ran the verify | 05:58 |
| jimisrvrox | and it said that it was cool | 05:58 |
| jimisrvrox | I had PCLinuxOS on there before and so somebody said it didnt matte rthat it cold overwirte it | 05:59 |
| jimisrvrox | it tells me before I try to install that it has some crap on there from previous installs | 05:59 |
| The_Kernel | jimisrvrox is this an alt cd or the live cd that you're trying to install from? | 06:00 |
| jimisrvrox | alt cd | 06:00 |
| dubwoc | jimisrvrox good man | 06:00 |

| medfly | hai guys. i'm trying to install xubuntu on my old (1999) laptop, and it always ends up showing me a blinking _ in the end, when i try to install. | 09:34 |
| medfly | i'm njot sure how to make it show me errors. | 09:37 |
| nikolam | what version of xubuntu, how much ram on machine, what it displays before "_", is it working something while displaying it, did you check your CD, did you set your compouter bios to boot from CD.. | 09:37 |
| medfly | uhm... i got the most recent thing, 8.04, 64mb (or was it 128mb? ram), i did check my CD, it did boot from CD | 09:39 |
| medfly | and before that, it shows a graphical loading screen. | 09:39 |
| nikolam | do you use alternate install CD? | 09:40 |
| medfly | no | 09:40 |
| nikolam | With that amount of RAM (64mb) only alternate will work | 09:40 |
| medfly | i imagined it'd be slow, but not show a blinking _ | 09:41 |
| nikolam | I suggest you to expand your ram if you can | 09:41 |
| medfly | well, its a laptop :/ | 09:41 |
| nikolam | desktop cd will NOT boot on that amount of ram | 09:41 |
| nikolam | laptops can be expanded with ram, too | 09:41 |
| nikolam | I suggest you to even try alternate install, or expand your ram with ,again alternate install or you can try to use something like Damn small linux | 09:42 |
| nikolam | I have 2GB in machine and I still use alternate install CD for Xubuntu to install | 09:43 |
| medfly | uhmm... can i somehow check dmesg to see if all my devices work? | 09:44 |
| nikolam | Ctrl+Alt+F2 for console | 09:51 |
| nikolam | But try alternate cd or DSL or expland your ram | 09:51 |
| medfly | i can use DSL to expand my ram? | 09:51 |
| nikolam | DamnSmallLinux is a linux distribution, based on .deb packages, specially made for older computers with low amount of ram | 09:52 |
| nikolam | it should work on 64mb like a charm | 09:52 |
| medfly | oh... right | 09:52 |
| nikolam | alternate xubuntu should work on 64 mb but 128 mb is low end in practice | 09:53 |
| medfly | yeah, i just want something that supports connecting my laptop to the router by USB. plenty of things work :-) | 09:53 |
| nikolam | You could also try Zenwalk Linux before reverting to DSL | 09:53 |
| medfly | alt+ctrl+f2 doesnt work.. | 09:54 |
| nikolam | There is not much difference between linux`es when supporting hardware. It`s just about implementation | 09:54 |
| AlexCONRAD | hi, when I set "Enable Automatic Login" in xubuntu, in which file does it actually stores the data ? | 10:22 |
| TheSheep | AlexCONRAD: what data? | 10:22 |
| TheSheep | AlexCONRAD: configuration? | 10:23 |
| AlexCONRAD | hello TheSheep, yes | 10:23 |
| AlexCONRAD | I need to write this to disk during my automatic setup | 10:23 |

| jeanne | I want to set kpdf for opening of pdf-files, but I dont find its location. | 10:30 |
| TheSheep | xubuntu uses evince, not kpdf | 10:36 |
| TheSheep | it might be not installed | 10:36 |

| jeanne | I will have a look if I have evince | 10:44 |
| jeanne | I have evince | 10:44 |
| jeanne | do you know where this program is located/which path does it have ? | 10:45 |
| jeanne | when I click on pdf files in the webbrower it asks me with which program I want to open it | 10:46 |
| jeanne | and I dont know how to set it because I dont find its location | 10:46 |
| * jeanne is new to linux... | 10:47 | |
| TheSheep | open a termin and type 'dpkg -L kpdf', that will list all files installed with that package | 10:47 |

| jeanne | got this list | 10:52 |
| TheSheep | jeanne: please use pastebin next time | 10:52 |
| jeanne | back | 10:52 |
| jeanne | sorry for floading | 10:52 |
| TheSheep | !paste | 10:52 |
| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 10:52 |
| jeanne | whats that ? | 10:52 |
| TheSheep | jeanne: there should be some file in /usr/bin | 10:53 |
| TheSheep | jeanne: that's usually the executable | 10:53 |
| jeanne | ah | 10:53 |
| jeanne | I think I have found it | 10:54 |
| TheSheep | great | 10:54 |
| TheSheep | btw, if you know the command and look for the file, you can use: which command | 10:54 |
| jeanne | :D | 10:54 |
| jeanne | hooray | 10:54 |
| TheSheep | for example, which kpdf | 10:54 |
| jeanne | it works ! thank you | 10:54 |
| jeanne | ah which command is very good | 10:55 |
| jeanne | changed from windows | 10:55 |
| AlexCONRAD | strange, i've just automated autologin by sed'ing the /etc/gdm/gdm.conf ... but it doesn't work. And when I go in Applications > Login Window > Security tab, it's not enabled. I guess the configuration is stored whereelse. | 11:14 |
| AlexCONRAD | elsewhere* | 11:15 |
| AlexCONRAD | oh, I think that setting autologin from the GUI generates a /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom | 11:17 |
| kalabaw | is there a way to change the size of the icons on the Thunar toolbar? | 11:22 |
| TheSheep | kalabaw: the thunar wiki might have some info on it | 11:23 |

| kalabaw | tried that but can't seem to find the answer to my question... | 11:24 |

| cody-somerville | Chillin! :) | 13:34 |
| cody-somerville | Want to add it to the Ubuntu wiki? ;] | 13:35 |
| Odd-rationale | cody-somerville: feel free to do so. you may have to change a few ubuntu specific stuff... | 13:35 |
| Odd-rationale | like apt | 13:35 |
| Odd-rationale | and linuxwacom is called wacom-tools in ubuntu | 13:36 |
| Odd-rationale | iirc | 13:36 |
| Odd-rationale | Also, arent there already several tablet guides in the ubuntu wiki? | 13:38 |
| cody-somerville | I used your page to configure mine | 13:40 |
| Odd-rationale | cody-somerville: btw, did the rotate script work for you? I think i'm the only person who uses it... :) So it could use some testing... | 13:40 |
| cody-somerville | I didn't try it yes | 13:41 |
| cody-somerville | *yet | 13:41 |
| cody-somerville | Just entered the commands manually | 13:41 |
| Odd-rationale | i see | 13:41 |

| Odd-rationale | and if you see anything else cool tablet related, let me know | 13:42 |
| cody-somerville | How do I get it to right click instead of middle click when I press the button? | 13:47 |
| cody-somerville | lol | 13:47 |
| Odd-rationale | cody-somerville: look at how i configure my xorg.conf | 13:50 |
| Odd-rationale | you have to add Option "Button2" "3" | 13:50 |
| Odd-rationale | to the driver and eraser section | 13:50 |

| lc2 | even better, google.com | 17:13 |

| lc2 | he could just right click on it and go delete, you know | 17:15 |
| lc2 | oh, too late | 17:16 |
| lc2 | it was probably a troll anyway, since you don't install xubuntu and find yourself unable to right click in a file manager | 17:16 |
| lc2 | but wut do i no lol | 17:16 |
| The-Kernel | what if he's like me | 17:17 |
| The-Kernel | and uses a terminal 24/7 | 17:17 |

| riddlebox | how can I get the ubuntu original toolbars, if I started with xubuntu? | 19:24 |
| jimisrvrox | anybody here? | 19:24 |
| Myrtti | sure | 19:26 |
| jimisrvrox | ok cool right on | 19:27 |
| jimisrvrox | well heres the deal I been having probs installing xubuntu on my machine | 19:27 |
| jimisrvrox | trying to install xubuntu and am getting an error Warning: Failure trying to run: chroot /target dpkg --force-- depends--install var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.7-10ubuntu3_i386.deb | 19:27 |
| jimisrvrox | I had installed PCLinuxOS on there and it was working but I couldnt update the package manager so I dumped it for xubuntu and then when I tried to install the base kernel it tells me that it cant do it so is there anyway that I could fix that stuff without having to do a full format which would take forever to do on a 40gb drive? | 19:28 |
| Myrtti | I just formatted 200G to ext3 and it didn't take forever :-P | 19:29 |
| jimisrvrox | ok but how would you do that from the ubuntu main menu? | 19:30 |
| jimisrvrox | because I tried fdisk and that wouldnt work worth nothing | 19:30 |
| Myrtti | mkfs.ext3 /dev/<device>? | 19:32 |
| Myrtti | in terminal, with sudo | 19:32 |
| Myrtti | mkfs anyway | 19:33 |
| jimisrvrox | yeah well heh im a linux n00b | 19:35 |
| jimisrvrox | but im telling you I dont have the konsole to do nothing | 19:35 |
| jimisrvrox | all im doing is overwriting the PCLinuxOS with Xubuntu and I get as far as installing the base kernel and it tells me that it cant do it | 19:36 |
| jimisrvrox | so im not even in the gui interface | 19:36 |
| jimisrvrox | im in the dos-style shit | 19:36 |
| Myrtti | meh | 19:36 |
| jimisrvrox | so what should I do? | 19:37 |
| jimisrvrox | its not like I could get like a linux bootdisk and do an fdisk no? | 19:37 |
| jimisrvrox | kinda like winblows | 19:38 |
| Myrtti | hmmm | 19:40 |
| jimisrvrox | you know what im talking about right? | 19:40 |
| Myrtti | yeah | 19:41 |
| jimisrvrox | id love to find a linux boot disk just to run off of my a: so I couild format it in ext3 | 19:41 |
| Myrtti | well how did you try to install ubuntu if not with a installation cd? | 19:41 |
| jimisrvrox | no I put on the install cd | 19:41 |
| jimisrvrox | all I was doing was overwriting the PCLinuxOS | 19:41 |
| jimisrvrox | but when it got to trying to install the base kernel it told me that it couldnt do it because I already had installed it with PCLinuxOX | 19:42 |
| jimisrvrox | albeit I dont know if PCLinuxOS installed the same kernel or a different one | 19:42 |
| jimisrvrox | I guess I could try skipping that step and see if it runs smoothly with the PCLinuxOS kernel no? | 19:42 |
| Myrtti | well now... | 19:42 |
| Myrtti | erm | 19:43 |
| Myrtti | you didn't even get to the part about partitioning? | 19:43 |
| jimisrvrox | no I got past that part | 19:44 |
| jimisrvrox | I got past partitioning the step after that on the menu is installing the base system | 19:45 |
| Myrtti | and you didn't empty/reformat your partitions? | 19:45 |
| jimisrvrox | that might be the problem here | 19:45 |
| Myrtti | no kidding ;-) | 19:45 |
| jimisrvrox | ok so how the hell would you do that from the install menu? | 19:45 |
| jimisrvrox | I guess I could stick my windows boot disk in there and then fdisk from there and delete the partitions? | 19:46 |
| Myrtti | did you use alternate or desktop installation disk? | 19:46 |
| jimisrvrox | because the partitioner on the instaler doesnt give you an option to delete the partitions | 19:46 |
| jimisrvrox | yes | 19:46 |
| Myrtti | which? | 19:47 |
| jimisrvrox | 8.04 for the x86 | 19:48 |
| Myrtti | alternate or desktop? | 19:49 |
| jimisrvrox | alt | 19:49 |
| jimisrvrox | I dl'ed the alt because somebody suggested I do that but I coudlnt tell you the diff btwn the desktop and the alt | 19:49 |
| Myrtti | well, there should come an option to do a manual editing of the partitions and you can delete the old partitions from there | 19:49 |
| jimisrvrox | which I could probably research that but if yo uhad the answer to that one it woudl be much easier proabbly to understand | 19:49 |
| Myrtti | the blue ugly one or the pretty mouse clickable funky thing? | 19:50 |
| jimisrvrox | right but im telling you that when it gives you the option to manually do the partitions fdisk..it doesnt let you do it when i click on it | 19:50 |
| jimisrvrox | dos style ugly :D | 19:50 |
| jimisrvrox | yup..tried to click on manually partition it..from the menu and it just takes me right back to the menu | 19:51 |
| jimisrvrox | ok I got the partitions off | 19:53 |
| jimisrvrox | so im gonna try to repartition it | 19:53 |
| jimisrvrox | hey dude.. | 20:01 |
| jimisrvrox | I deleted the partitions and got the same error | 20:01 |
| Myrtti | and did you repartition them too? | 20:01 |
| Myrtti | s/them/the harddrive/ | 20:01 |
| jimisrvrox | yeah I tried | 20:07 |
| Myrtti | hum, in that case I'm stumped | 20:07 |
| jimisrvrox | well I think in this case I might just take out my windows boot disk | 20:10 |
| truefire | hi, how big is xubuntu when installed on hdd? | 20:18 |
| truefire | anybody? | 20:19 |
| truefire | Man, xubuntu is dead. | 20:19 |
| Myrtti | I wish I had vanilla installation at hand so I could check | 20:19 |
| Myrtti | unfortunately I've got lots of extra, space taking junk too | 20:19 |
| truefire | thanks. | 20:19 |
| truefire | well,guesstimate? | 20:20 |
| truefire | under 2gigs, right? | 20:20 |
| truefire | I'm installing vanilla xubuntu (not eee) on my asus eeepc, 4gb | 20:20 |
| truefire | Ubuntu was too big | 20:21 |
| truefire | filled it up | 20:21 |
| truefire | my goal is to make a Xubuntu Netbook Remix of sorts, since UNR is so big. | 20:21 |
| AlexCONRAD | hi again | 20:40 |
| AlexCONRAD | I need help for understanding things with kernel again | 20:41 |
| AlexCONRAD | I'm customizing a CD, but the network driver provided by the distro doesn't fit my network card, its broken. So I compiled the new driver (.ko). But I'd like to put this driver on the CDROM I'm making, so I don't have to go on each PC i'm installing to make the network working. | 20:42 |
| AlexCONRAD | any hints for doing this ? | 20:43 |
| AlexCONRAD | I'm no kernel expert and I'm not sure how modules are transfered from the CDROM to the target PC* | 20:44 |
| jmhealey | hello all | 20:53 |
| * jmhealey has decided xfce is the way to go at home | 20:53 | |
| jmhealey | anyone here? | 20:54 |
| AlexCONRAD | i am | 20:55 |
| jmhealey | hey AlexCONRAD | 20:57 |
| jmhealey | how are yu | 20:57 |
| jmhealey | how long have you been using xubuntu, or do you? | 20:57 |
| AlexCONRAD | just a little | 20:57 |
| AlexCONRAD | i'm a n00b :) | 20:57 |
| jmhealey | noob to linux too? | 20:58 |
| AlexCONRAD | comming from the fedora side | 20:58 |
| jmhealey | gotcha. i used fedora for a bit, and redhat before fedora existed | 20:58 |
| AlexCONRAD | but I have more of a server experience, rather than a user desktop experience | 20:58 |
| AlexCONRAD | so have I | 20:59 |
| jmhealey | i got ya- are you an admin? | 20:59 |
| AlexCONRAD | not really, more a dev... but being alone knowing linux at my work, it kinds makes me an admin too | 21:01 |
| AlexCONRAD | but i'm not very experienced | 21:01 |
| AlexCONRAD | im ok, not hardcore | 21:01 |
| jmhealey | i got ya. i've got no dev experience, but i was kind of the de facto linux admin at my last job, limited experience though in a server env | 21:02 |
| AlexCONRAD | ok | 21:03 |
| AlexCONRAD | I'll probably installing a desktop rich distro like *buntu at home and at work | 21:03 |
| AlexCONRAD | i'll have more general knowledge of linux | 21:03 |
| AlexCONRAD | right now i'm playing with xubuntu, but for very specific needs | 21:04 |
| AlexCONRAD | so still no general knowledge | 21:04 |
| jmhealey | yes, i run *buntu on 6 machines at home. so i've got some desktop install/config experience, to be sure | 21:04 |
| AlexCONRAD | i'll be back in a while, diner time :) | 21:06 |
| jmhealey | see you | 21:06 |
| jimisrvrox | hey jmhealey are you around? | 21:16 |
| jmhealey | yep | 21:17 |
| jmhealey | how are you? | 21:17 |
| jimisrvrox | not doing so well | 21:17 |
| jimisrvrox | trying to install xubuntu over PCLinuxOS | 21:18 |
| jimisrvrox | and its not going to well at all | 21:18 |
| jmhealey | right over it, on the same partitions? | 21:19 |
| jimisrvrox | well ive done so much shit like deleting the partitions | 21:19 |
| jimisrvrox | and repartitioning | 21:19 |
| jimisrvrox | and then whenever I try to install the system base | 21:19 |
| jimisrvrox | it tells me that it cant do it | 21:19 |
| jmhealey | have you got data you need to save? | 21:19 |
| jimisrvrox | so now I went into resuce mode | 21:19 |
| jimisrvrox | no | 21:19 |
| jimisrvrox | this is a screw around computer that I am putting linux on ...ima n00b and officially ex-winblows user | 21:20 |
| jmhealey | thats cool. most all are ex windblows users, myself included | 21:20 |
| jmhealey | what version of xubuntu do you ahve on disk? | 21:20 |
| jimisrvrox | 8.04 x86 alt cd | 21:21 |
| jimisrvrox | so I went into rescue mode | 21:21 |
| jimisrvrox | and got a temp root shell | 21:21 |
| jmhealey | hmm. any particular reason for the alternative cd? | 21:21 |
| jimisrvrox | heh not really havent a clue as to what im doing | 21:21 |
| jimisrvrox | somebody suggested to run the alt cd | 21:21 |
| jimisrvrox | got 196mb of ram and a p3 700 running | 21:22 |
| jmhealey | ok. i'd recommend that you used the other choice (not the alt) | 21:22 |
| jimisrvrox | noooo! | 21:22 |
| jimisrvrox | I dont want to have to go wait for an hour! | 21:22 |
| jmhealey | lol | 21:22 |
| jimisrvrox | and then burn another cd to have this one be a coaster | 21:22 |
| jmhealey | but then you can boot to a desktop and see how she runs on that box | 21:22 |
| jimisrvrox | well yeah but why do something twice?!? | 21:23 |
| jmhealey | the other cd image is a 'live' one, you can boot right to a desktop, provided the hdw is supported | 21:23 |
| jimisrvrox | I dont want to have to wait for an hour to dl the same iso but desktop version | 21:23 |
| jimisrvrox | yes i know its a live cd | 21:23 |
| jimisrvrox | but so is this one just tha tits a dos shit gui | 21:23 |
| jmhealey | ok | 21:23 |
| jimisrvrox | so what the deal is is that i ran the error checker and the cd passed | 21:24 |
| jimisrvrox | so I started the install and when it got to installing the base system it told me | 21:24 |
| jimisrvrox | trying to install xubuntu and am getting an error Warning: Failure trying to run: chroot /target dpkg --force-- depends--install var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.7-10ubuntu3_i386.deb | 21:24 |
| jmhealey | i don't know what that means | 21:26 |
| jimisrvrox | I was thinking as a last resort to get a winblows boot disk and just format the drive and start over | 21:26 |
| jmhealey | but i have had bad burns of ubuntu CD | 21:26 |
| jimisrvrox | but formatting the 40gb drive would take forever | 21:26 |
| jimisrvrox | well like I say the cd passed the error checker | 21:26 |
| jmhealey | forever- cmon | 21:26 |
| jimisrvrox | what so you dont think it woudl take that long eh? | 21:26 |
| jmhealey | i swear i've had CD's that passed the self test, and then hozed out with read errors sometime during install | 21:27 |
| jimisrvrox | so you think I should just format with windows boot disk and try a clean install? | 21:27 |
| jmhealey | download system rescue CD and wipe the drive, as well as test it for errors at the same time, thats my advice | 21:27 |
| jmhealey | you don't need a windblows disk, get away from that LOL | 21:27 |
| jimisrvrox | im in the system rescue part of the live cd dude | 21:27 |
| jimisrvrox | at a root shell | 21:27 |
| jmhealey | i've not been there, will it let you run parted? try that command | 21:28 |
| jimisrvrox | just type in parted? | 21:28 |
| jmhealey | parted can blow away partitions and so can fdisk if you've got it | 21:28 |
| jmhealey | type parted | 21:28 |
| jimisrvrox | tells me not found | 21:29 |
| jmhealey | try fdisk then | 21:29 |
| jimisrvrox | ok fdisk gives me all the partitions | 21:29 |
| Volkodav_ | gparted | 21:29 |
| jmhealey | yep, gparted is the gui version of parted | 21:29 |
| jmhealey | jimisrvrox: you can use fdisk to blow away partions and then creat them | 21:30 |
| jimisrvrox | yes I know | 21:30 |
| jimisrvrox | I had repartitioned the drives like i dont know how many times using the installer | 21:30 |
| jimisrvrox | and still had the same error | 21:30 |
| jmhealey | then i'd definetly try another burned copy of xubuntu | 21:30 |
| jmhealey | i've had bad burns that checked out OK with the disk integrity checker. don't ask me why | 21:31 |
| jimisrvrox | im gonna run th installer one more time | 21:32 |
| Volkodav_ | I had similar error and it turned out to be bad sectors on the hard drive | 21:32 |
| jmhealey | http://www.sysresccd.org <--- download that disk, its the tits | 21:32 |
| Volkodav_ | check your drive first | 21:32 |
| jmhealey | Volkodav_: good advice, which he can do with sysrecccd | 21:33 |
| jimisrvrox | ok starting up partitioner | 21:33 |
| jimisrvrox | and im gonna use the entire disk | 21:33 |
| Volkodav_ | in my situation I could not resize htfs partition and ntfs-resize caught the error | 21:34 |
| jmhealey | good, cuz that will leave no room for windows : ) | 21:34 |
| jmhealey | one thing i noticed on Vista machines, is that if the Vista OS was not shut down cleanly, I couldnt do a resize. | 21:34 |
| jimisrvrox | ok its creating the ext3 fs | 21:35 |
| Volkodav_ | and after I replaced that bad drive ram turned out to be trashed too on the same box | 21:35 |
| jimisrvrox | installing base system | 21:35 |
| jimisrvrox | this is where it crashes | 21:35 |
| Volkodav_ | you need to defrag and disk clean up before resize | 21:35 |
| jmhealey | Volkodav_: that sounds like a bad day | 21:35 |
| Volkodav_ | It was a bad box I dealt with | 21:36 |
| jmhealey | jimisrvrox: here's the other utility CD i carry everywhere: http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ | 21:36 |
| Volkodav_ | that happens every coupla years | 21:36 |
| jmhealey | i have a copy of each of those everywhere, in the glovebox my car, my truck, and my motorcycle tank bag. | 21:36 |
| jmhealey | and in my wife's pocketbook. | 21:37 |
| Volkodav_ | forensic disks are always handy | 21:37 |
| jimisrvrox | and my other issue here is that no matter what I tell imgburn about write speed my dam dvd writer wants to go at 16x | 21:38 |
| jimisrvrox | unpacking base system @ 47% | 21:39 |
| jmhealey | nothing like a good unpacking i tell ya... | 21:39 |
| Volkodav_ | jimisrvrox, it may be blank DVD's that will not go lower speed | 21:40 |
| jimisrvrox | no theyre cdrs | 21:40 |
| Volkodav_ | or cdr's | 21:40 |
| jimisrvrox | oh ok so I could put a diff brand in and it will work out fine | 21:40 |
| jimisrvrox | config apt sorces @ 75% | 21:41 |
| jmhealey | jimisrvrox: every heard of puppy linux? | 21:41 |
| jimisrvrox | retreving and installing linux-generic 83% | 21:41 |
| jimisrvrox | yup | 21:41 |
| Volkodav_ | puppy is nice | 21:41 |
| jmhealey | yeah, it runs really well on older machine, IMX | 21:42 |
| Volkodav_ | they have video detection problems though | 21:42 |
| jimisrvrox | ok well error erturned while trying to install the kernel into the target system | 21:42 |
| jmhealey | i was just at a LUG meeting and there was a dude there that was a Puppy Linux freak. he ran it on everything | 21:43 |
| Volkodav_ | at higher res | 21:43 |
| jimisrvrox | check /var/log/sysing or see virtual console 4 for the details | 21:43 |
| jmhealey | jimisrvrox: I'm leaning toward Volkodav_'s comment, you got a flaky hard drive | 21:43 |
| Volkodav_ | I have it installed on one of my oldeast lappies | 21:43 |
| jimisrvrox | ok but why could I install PCLinuxOS have it run fine | 21:43 |
| jimisrvrox | and the when I tried to install this | 21:43 |
| jimisrvrox | it wouldnt even install | 21:43 |
| jmhealey | how long was PCLin on there? | 21:44 |
| jimisrvrox | like all of a couple of hours | 21:44 |
| jimisrvrox | because the package manager wouldnt load | 21:44 |
| jmhealey | hmm. | 21:44 |
| Volkodav_ | checked your ram ? | 21:44 |
| jimisrvrox | for bad ram? | 21:44 |
| jimisrvrox | no | 21:44 |
| Volkodav_ | do that | 21:44 |
| jmhealey | pull it and reseat it, too | 21:44 |
| jimisrvrox | and the other funny thing about this whole thing is that when i start it up I get primary slave hard disk fail | 21:45 |
| jimisrvrox | but I was able to run XP and PCLin on it fine | 21:46 |
| Volkodav_ | I had XP running on that bad disk too | 21:46 |
| Volkodav_ | it depends where the bad sectors are | 21:46 |
| jmhealey | agreed | 21:47 |
| Volkodav_ | If they happen to be at the end of the drive where you try to install - no luck | 21:47 |
| jimisrvrox | running mem test | 21:47 |
| jimisrvrox | i take it that that is going to take a while? | 21:48 |
| jmhealey | jimisrvrox: please tell me you aren't thinking of going back to windows | 21:48 |
| Volkodav_ | Does the box acting up any other way ? noises shutdowns etc? | 21:48 |
| Volkodav_ | How much ram do you have and what CPU? | 21:48 |
| jimisrvrox | no im not going back to winblows | 21:49 |
| jimisrvrox | I expected problems with linux | 21:49 |
| jmhealey | ok ok. just chekcing | 21:49 |
| jimisrvrox | but I am not giving up on it | 21:49 |
| jimisrvrox | Im using xp on this machine right now | 21:49 |
| jimisrvrox | but I dont intend to use it that much once I get a linux distro up | 21:49 |
| Volkodav_ | hardly it has anything to do with linux - seems like hardware issue to me | 21:49 |
| jimisrvrox | no sounds no nothing | 21:50 |
| jimisrvrox | p3 700 196mb ram | 21:50 |
| Volkodav_ | will take about 30-40 m in | 21:50 |
| Volkodav_ | to finish mem test | 21:50 |
| jmhealey | jimisrvrox: ar eyou in the US? | 21:51 |
| jimisrvrox | yeah | 21:51 |
| Volkodav_ | it sometimes will not stop and will start over - so keep an eye on it | 21:51 |
| jimisrvrox | well right now pass 17% and test 41% | 21:51 |
| jmhealey | ok, there is a different iso to burn if you are south of the equator, that's why i asked | 21:52 |
| jimisrvrox | so im gonna go outside and smoke a cig so i'll brb | 21:52 |
| jmhealey | ok | 21:52 |
| * Volkodav_ out of smokes | 21:52 | |
| jmhealey | Volkodav_: are you a linux professional? | 21:53 |
| Volkodav_ | been playing with it for a while | 21:53 |
| Volkodav_ | may say so | 21:53 |
| jmhealey | same here, aspiring to be a pro | 21:53 |
| jmhealey | i am a former nt admin | 21:53 |
| jmhealey | What is your preferred desktop linux distro? | 21:54 |
| Volkodav_ | I still admin some networks | 21:54 |

| Volkodav_ | I can imagine NM is a dump | 21:56 |
| jimisrvrox | aint a damn thing to do out here | 21:56 |
| jmhealey | NM is better than OM though, isn't it? | 21:56 |
| jimisrvrox | new mexico dude.. | 21:57 |
| jimisrvrox | i have no clue what OM is | 21:57 |
| jmhealey | old mexico | 21:57 |
| Volkodav_ | hehe | 21:57 |
| jimisrvrox | oh hell yeah its better than that dump | 21:57 |

| jimisrvrox | wifes parents live out here | 22:07 |
| jmhealey | cool | 22:07 |
| jimisrvrox | i actually met my wife on the net and been married for 3 yrs now | 22:08 |
| jmhealey | thats great. i met my wife on the net, we've been together 8 years, got 2 kids | 22:08 |
| jimisrvrox | sweet | 22:08 |
| jimisrvrox | my wife hates it that im all into computers | 22:08 |
| jmhealey | hehe | 22:08 |
| jimisrvrox | I need to go back to school though..I dropped out after a year and a half.. | 22:09 |
| jimisrvrox | figured I didnt need the crap.. | 22:09 |
| jimisrvrox | buncha theory classes that I didnt see any practicallity too.. | 22:09 |
| jimisrvrox | so I said screw this | 22:09 |
| jimisrvrox | but ive been around computers now for about 15 yrs..23 and got in when i was 7 and taught myself most of what I know..know how to build a pc and put a network together and a little bit of programming but not enough to be doing anything serious | 22:10 |
| jmhealey | cool. thats a great start to a good career, for sure | 22:11 |
| jimisrvrox | but lifes a bitch right now man..I was used to the padres making 70K a year a piece | 22:11 |
| jimisrvrox | good life man now im makin like 7 an horu just doing data entry shit and the wife is a bus driver she likes it but money is always tight | 22:12 |
| jimisrvrox | and at my work I dont play around i use all the keyboard shortcuts and shit so I get done with everything in about 1hr 1/2 | 22:12 |
| jimisrvrox | and screw around the rest of the day..if I had my truck fixed id def be looking for better jobs and luckly i been with this co for about 1 yr and havent gotten a raise bc I was through a temp agency and the position im in is not open for hire so im stuck with the temp until the new budget comes out in july | 22:13 |
| jimisrvrox | pass 94% | 22:13 |
| jmhealey | well, it's a start. i'm unemployed, which is worse, trust me | 22:14 |
| jimisrvrox | been there myself | 22:14 |
| jimisrvrox | heh my mom is an accoutant and I told her I didnt need a job that I could make it on my own in real estate I got caught up in the rich dad books | 22:15 |
| jimisrvrox | and started telling her that I didnt want to get a job because then id be making money for somebody else instead of myself | 22:15 |
| jmhealey | how'd that work out? | 22:17 |
| jimisrvrox | never did | 22:18 |
| jimisrvrox | I had a guy that I worked with that did real estate on the side and I asked him to show me the ropes and he flaked out on me | 22:18 |
| jmhealey | bazdid | 22:18 |
| jimisrvrox | yup | 22:19 |
| jimisrvrox | but hey people are like that tho | 22:19 |
| jimisrvrox | wished I knew how to use linkedin effectively because then I figure I could get a decent job out here somehow | 22:20 |
| jimisrvrox | but the only problem is I dont really know anybody around here who uses linkedin | 22:20 |
| jmhealey | what part of NM are you in? | 22:21 |
| jimisrvrox | albuquerque | 22:22 |
| jmhealey | never been there | 22:22 |
| jmhealey | hows the mem check going? | 22:31 |
| jimisrvrox | I thought it was going to be done but I guess its checking a 2nd sector of mem | 22:33 |
| jimisrvrox | right now at 69% | 22:33 |
| jmhealey | hey did you know a guy named daryll in lewisville, had a yellow cbr600rr | 22:33 |
| jimisrvrox | no I knew a daryll that had a 60's mustang | 22:34 |
| jmhealey | your age? | 22:34 |
| jimisrvrox | 23 | 22:34 |
| jmhealey | was he your age? | 22:35 |
| jimisrvrox | oh yeah | 22:35 |

| Volkodav_ | 3-4 should be OK - I do it normally overnight and it runs about 20 | 23:01 |
| Volkodav_ | 3 passes should do for starters | 23:02 |

| jimisrvrox | I guess it tests every little chemical molecule of your memory eh? heh | 23:02 |
| Volkodav_ | well then let it finish at least one | 23:02 |
| jimisrvrox | download UB CD | 23:03 |
| Volkodav_ | some times the first pass doesn't catch an error, but subsequent passes will. | 23:03 |
| jmhealey | yep. if you start to smell it, shut it off. it melted one ram chip on me once | 23:03 |
