[00:00] i writ this line at the and [00:00] /dev/sda1 /media/Vista ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000 0 0 [00:01] and [00:01] i didn't writ too [00:01] gr_willis [00:02] /dev/sda1 /media/Vista ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000 0 0 [00:02] this [00:02] I have no idea what you mean. after you make the changes.. you use ctrl-o to save the changes in nano. [00:02] at vista [00:02] if you look at the fstab file now. it should haffe that line at the end [00:02] i let it vista or i writ name of my partion ex: SAT [00:03] thats just the mount point. You must make the directory it is mounting to. [00:03] if you want to mount it to 'SAT' then change 'Vista' to 'SAT' and use the following command to make the mountpoint [00:04] sudo mkdir /media/SAT [00:04] the fstab entry would look like ---------------> /dev/sda1 /media/SAT ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000 0 0 [00:04] but SAT it's mount i see it when i enter at media/SAT [00:05] Thast the name of the directory the drive will appear at.. ie: its MountPoint [00:09] dr_willis [00:09] for ex: [00:09] how can i know the name of partion sda1 [00:09] You make it up. [00:10] in order i can know SAT [00:10] it dosent have a 'name' [00:10] You mount a drive to a directory, you can name that directory anything you want. [00:10] ok [00:10] sudo mkdir /media/Make_Me_Up [00:10] so [00:10] /dev/sda1 /media/Make_Me_Up ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000 0 0 [00:11] i have on ntfs sda1 sda5 and sda6 [00:11] the Imporntant thing to rember is that the mount point MUST EXIST BEFOR YOU MOUNT TO IT. [00:11] what i have too change in this line [00:11] /dev/sda1 /media/SAT ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000 0 0 [00:11] You make a seperate entry in fstab for each of those drives [00:11] changeing sda1 to be sda5 and sda6 [00:12] and giveing them different MountPoints [00:12] you make each mountpoint with the ' sudo mkdir /media/Make_Me_Up ' type command [00:13] but SAT i let it like here [00:13] /dev/sda1 /media/SAT ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000 0 0 [00:14] /dev/sda5 /media/SOMEOTHERNAME ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000 0 0 [00:14] /dev/sda6 /media/YETOTHERNAME ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000 0 0 [00:14] 3 differnet lines.. edited as you like. for the mountpoint [00:15] ok i will try it [00:15] wait me [00:15] Telling people to 'wait' on irc.. is err.. pointless.. [00:15] :) [00:16] willis [00:16] just saying someones nick onirc.. is also a bit pointless.. :) [00:16] i cant delet file too at sda5 and sda 6 [00:16] i have no idea what you just said... [00:17] if you want full access for those drives.. you MUST give them fstab entries like you did for the first. [00:17] listin to me [00:17] Note that these changes will not take effect untill you remount the drives/reboot. [00:18] the partition are mount i can view file at SAT for ex [00:18] but i never can delet files [00:18] You must remount the drives after making these changes. [00:18] just editing the fstab file will NOT make it 'start working' [00:19] easy way to test.. is make the fstab file changes, then reboot. [00:19] ok so i must logout after change?? [00:20] loging out is Not rebooting... [00:20] so must reboot [00:20] restarting the machine is rebooting... [00:20] ? [00:20] ok [00:20] so wait i'll be back kere [00:20] I have some errands to run..i will be in and out of here all day [00:21] Mountinh of linux drives is documented all over the web...

[01:23] =) [01:25] * dr_willis was running a little out of patience. :) [01:25] 'you need to reboot' --> good way to get a break/change nicks. :) [01:27] its amazing that under windows.. i transfer 5gb from the windows box to the linux box.. and the window box gets so laggy - i can barely even type on it.. cant watch videos or anything else... but on a linux->linux transfer.. the linux box dosent bog down at all.. and its got 1/2 the CPU power... [01:28] dr_willis : true. it happens to me too [01:28] and windows will say it will take '5 hrs 12 min' to transfer... then the next second go down to 4min.... [01:29] I really have to wonder about some of these logical/gui/design things in vista.. the 'more info' button in the copy dialog just shoes 3 more lines of info.. woopie.. any reasin not to just show it by default? Not like its overwhelming people with info [01:30] heh it went from 40 min.. to done.. that time in less then 4 min [01:33] dr_willis : the most stupid thing is that when it is a small file like 50mb it says 30 sec but if the other file that will be copied is like 4 gb it will say 40 min. lol [01:34] Yep.. which is worse... 'no information' or 'wrong information' [01:34] i have noticed kde and gnome both improveing this 'copy dialog' stuff.. [01:35] hey. i just upgraded to kubuntu 8.10 beta, which worked quite nice. but now i experience some frequent flickering [01:35] I recall beOS doing it VERY well.. if you did a lot of copies it would que them up.. not trhrash the hard drive trying to do them all at once. [01:36] dbrug : try checking hardware drivers [01:37] dbrug : maybe its a graphic card problem [01:37] albuntu: i have a builtin intel 915gm. [01:38] dbrug : type jockey-kde in terminal and see if your restricted drivers are active [01:39] albuntu: ok thanks [01:40] i dident think intel cards used restricted drivers [01:41] xserver-xorg-video-intel - X.Org X server -- Intel i8xx, i9xx display driver [01:41] dbrug : look at dr_willis post [01:42] I do see a LOT of hits on people with problems with the intel drivers. [01:42] yup i have that driver and it worked before. maybe i need to run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. [01:43] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5506057 [01:43] has some good looking info on the topic [01:43] dr_willis : my girlfriend has a same card but didnt had problems [01:43] I wond erif the issue often is not the pc makers little 'changes' to the cards.chipset/stuff [01:44] thanks. ill just try a restart after the xorg reconfigure. brb [01:49] okay the flickering seems not to be x related as it does not occur prior to login, i.e. while in KDM [01:49] so maybe it is an issie with the new kwin? [01:58] yup it is, it does not occur in a parallel icewm session === ubuntu is now known as kaeru2 [02:02] FAIL!

[03:09] if you want a full install...I doubt it [03:09] DarkTan: install what? [03:09] but you casn install fron a USB disk or from an iso image [03:09] * faileas thinks there's an unsupported tool for bootstrapping a kubuntu install from windows [03:09] part of the wubi project. i believe its called unetboot in?
