| Guest21111 | Hello, I need some advice | 10:55 |
| Besogon | asc | 10:56 |
| Guest21111 | What's the shortcut command to open the application menu? | 10:56 |
| Besogon | I don't know | 10:57 |
| Guest21111 | Found it. It's /usr/bin/xfce4-popup-menu | 10:59 |
| alienkid10 | how my friends windows SYSTEM registry hive is corrupt or missing and they are me fix it, but they want their data backed-up so I employed Ubuntu for the job. Unfortunately the NTFS partition is "in use" and I am unsure if forcing it to mount would cause more damage. So if I force it would it cause more damage? | 14:04 |
| TheSheep | you can back up the whole disk with dd | 14:07 |
| TheSheep | without having to mount it | 14:07 |
| alienkid10 | I can mount the partition | 14:07 |
| alienkid10 | and I don't have storage for 100GB of info | 14:07 |
| alienkid10 | would forcing it cause more damage? | 14:08 |
| alienkid10 | would? | 14:14 |
| alienkid10 | * would it? | 14:14 |

| SiDi | S0210, i dont think you can | 21:33 |
| S0210 | Hmmm... are they created by the thunar? | 21:43 |
| Hezy | S0210: I'm not an expert, but I understand that they can be imported from the camera itself, or get made by any app | 21:45 |
| Hezy | I think that the xfce thumbnail infrastructure is being rewritten right now, so whatever you find might not be true in the near future | 21:47 |
| SiDi | S0210, yeah, but there is no way that i know to retrieve an image with the current system | 21:53 |
| SiDi | XFCE 4.8 will come with a new lib for thumbnail manipulation, with which there will be ways to do this | 21:53 |
| SiDi | (developers ways, though) | 21:54 |
| Hezy | you should look for a general way to do it, not in xfce | 21:54 |
| SiDi | Well, i think the current pictures names are generated by a hash of the location of the original picture | 21:55 |
| SiDi | so you cant find the original location from the hash | 21:55 |
| SiDi | Hezy, S0210 i asked an XFCE dev and he said that the image should contain the location of the original file in its metadata | 21:59 |
| S0210 | SiDi: thank you | 22:02 |
| omniplatform | I got problems with 9.10 Alpha 3 installed via wubi. When I boot and select xubuntu, the screen goes black and it resets itself | 22:22 |
| SiDi | omniplatform, this looks like a X crash | 22:30 |
| SiDi | what if you boot xterm ? | 22:30 |
| SiDi | And did you try Ubuntu ? Does GNOME boot ? | 22:30 |
| omniplatform | ahhh, no Gnome isn't installed, just xubuntu with xfce | 22:32 |
| omniplatform | I don't get the chance to boot xterm, I don't think. from the windows OS selector, I select xubuntu then it immediately reboots | 22:32 |
| SiDi | I meant from the login manager | 22:33 |
| SiDi | So it crashes before login ? | 22:33 |
| SiDi | (the alpha 4 is out, by the way :P) | 22:33 |
| omniplatform | yes, long before login (oh I think it is alpha 4 after all) | 22:34 |
| omniplatform | trying it again (i'm chatting using a different 'puter than the one I'm trying to fix) | 22:35 |
| omniplatform | OK, I get "Please select the operating system to start:" then the two options, WinXP Home and Xubuntu | 22:36 |
| SiDi | Okey, this is the windows bootloader, since you installed with Wubi | 22:37 |
| omniplatform | it displays something really fast, then turns off. I'll try again to pause it at the message | 22:37 |
| omniplatform | it says "Try hd" something or other before turning off | 22:38 |
| omniplatform | "Try (hd0,0): NTFS5 | 22:38 |
| SiDi | Ok, i think the bootloader entry is doing something wrong, or it does things right and then grub2 does something wrong :/ | 22:38 |
| SiDi | you should ask for a similar issue in #ubuntu+1 | 22:38 |
| SiDi | if noone can confirm, then i suppose you'll have to get the whole message and report a bug against Ubuntu Karmic in https://bugs.launchpad.net | 22:39 |
| omniplatform | The message i see very briefly(after the "Try hd...) and cannot seem to pause in time says something about memory | 22:40 |
| omniplatform | also says something about "type help" | 22:42 |
| omniplatform | ok, I'll try to take this over if I don't get more info | 22:42 |
