inanimateCan you mount a drive as a user?00:02
inanimateautomount isn't working.00:03
kaddiyou can try mount /dev/devicename /media/mountname if the fstab allows you to mount it as a user, otherwise you will probably need to use sudo. But if you do not see it in the device manager, the problem is probably somewhere else00:04
kaddior just mount /dev/devicename00:04
inanimatekaddi: That doesn't work because I'm not root/sudo'd, and there is no entry in fstab. The drive exists in /dev, but it's not mounted.00:06
kaddiinanimate: and it does not show up in dolphin or anywhere?00:06
inanimateI'm actually doing this over ssh.00:07
inanimateIs there a way to use automount from the command line, given I don't have access to Dolphin?00:08
kaddiah, I see... well I guess I can't really help you with that then, I don't know how to do that through the command line00:08
kaddiyou can however get access to dolphin, if you use ssh -X to login00:08
inanimateAh, OK. Thanks though.00:08
kaddiif you start dolphin then, it should open on your desktop, however it will be slow as hell00:09
inanimateTrue. It looks like Dolphin got removed from this machine unfortunately...00:10
inanimateI suppose it's not the Kubuntu it once was =).00:10
kaddiare you sure it's a ubuntu? what version of kde is installed on it?00:10
kaddilol00:10
kaddido a lsb_release -a it should tell you what it is00:10
inanimateOh shit, it's Karmic.00:11
inanimateI didn't see that coming.00:11
kaddio.o00:11
inanimateI thought it was Jaunty this whole time.00:11
kaddiwell maybe ask at #ubuntu+1 , someone might now.. however dolphin should still exist00:11
inanimateNo, I think the sysadmin removed it.00:12
kaddiwell try konqueror the same basicness applies, it should automatically recognize mountable devices00:12
inanimateYeah, that's gone too. I'm pretty sure 95% of the GUI apps were removed.00:13
kaddiis that a server?00:13
inanimateIt's still [K]ubuntu, but it doesn't have much in the way of GUI left.00:13
inanimateIt's acting as one, yeah.00:14
kaddiok, well I'm no good then ;)00:14
inanimateHeh... No problem. Thanks though.00:14
inanimateAnyone know how to mount a drive from the command line?00:15
kaddimaybe ask in #ubuntu or #ubuntu+1 without a gui ubuntu is basically the same ;)00:15
inanimate(I'll rephrase it this time =).)00:16

makdaknifelovetruth: try `sudo chown vistar7\: /home/vistar7/.ICEauthority15:21
makdaknifegjulian: not the best approach... you're recursively messing with permissions of the users entire home directory15:22
BluesKajlovetruth, i don't like to pry , but are these family members parents , brothers & sisters or your children.15:22
BluesKaj?15:22
lovetruththe one who told me that is something like the one that i`m gonna live with all of my life :">15:22
lovetruthi mean, life partner :))15:23
gjulianmakdaknife: I think not. Probably, if a file is with wrong permissions, the entire vistar 7 dir can be also  with bad permissions.15:23
lovetruthok, tryied your command, gjulian15:23
lovetruthbrb relogin :)15:23
makdaknifegjulian: that's a MASSIVE assumption to make15:23
lovetruthi`ll tell you a result :)15:23

lovetruthyes, Bou115:24
cole_Could anyone help me get my buntu machine to authenticate to an ldap, ive tried everything :-/15:24
Bou1just change permission on the .IceAuthority file15:24
BluesKajlovetruth, if they are your children then you must make them understand the coolness of linux and other family members like parents etc should understand the seurity of using linux vs windows15:24

aziz_всем привет!!!15:26
Bou1gjulian: I think makdaknife is right, changing the ownership on the single file is enough (according to forum topics i just saw)15:26
gjulianmakdaknife: I think you're right... maybe he should have tried first changing ownership15:26
Bou1^^15:26
Bou1it seems the problem occured to many people.. it would be good to know why it happens..15:27
lovetruththanks, it works like charm :)15:27
lovetruthnow, just that compiz doesn't autostart anymore :)15:27
Bou1lovetruth: next time, try to google the error message15:27
Bou1i found lots of forum topics about it15:28
lovetruthok, that's what i usually do, just wanted to check in also this IRC channel :)15:28
lovetrutheven i checked the compiz autostart thingie, and didn't work15:28
lovetruthi mean, it worked, but now it doesn't any more15:28
makdaknifelovetruth: first thing to do is make sure that you own all of the files in your own home folder... you could do: chown -R vistar7\: ~/*15:29
Bou1lovetruth: by the way "no write access" error generally means "permission problem"15:29
gjulianlovetruth, a little thing to see if there was a ownership problem, post the output of ls -al /home/vistar7/.ICEauthority15:29
makdaknifethat means that you have appropriate ownership within your own home folder15:29
lovetruth-rwxr-x--- 1 vistar7 vistar7 708 2009-08-26 23:38 /home/vistar7/.ICEauthority15:30
gjulianNot a ownership problem :)15:31
Bou1of course, since he just fixed it15:31
makdaknifelovetruth: that looks okay... although I just have mine -rw-------15:31
lovetruthbut why doesn't start automatically compiz ?...15:31
makdaknifelovetruth: possibly you have other ownership problems... see the command I posted above15:32
lovetruthchown: cannot read directory `/home/vistar7/Desktop/New Folder/atlantis/build':Permission denied15:32
lovetruthah, sudo15:32
lovetruthok :)15:32
makdaknifeso you know that you already had one file that you didn't have permissionson15:33
lovetruthand it's from compiz effects :))15:33
lovetruththe atlantis :)15:33
lovetruthso quite can be :)15:33
makdaknife:-)15:33
lovetruthok, relogin :)15:34

spacelimeHello! I'm just about to install Kubuntu..... I'm tempted to go for Karmic because i've heard jaunty has a few issues. I don't mind if something would crash on me occationaly as long as it doesn't corrupt my hard drive or anything. Anyone that has experience with both jaunty and karmic and could give me a couple of tips?18:44
spacelimei've installed karmic to try before by the way... seemed to run smoothly for the couple of days i tried it.. but maybe there is some serious issue i'm not aware of yet...?18:45
makdaknifespacelime: I haven't gone with karmic yet... but jaunty is pretty good and you can get kde4.3 with the backports18:45
spacelimemakdaknife: are you using kde 4.3 atm?18:45
makdaknifespacelime: yes18:45
makdaknifespacelime: the only issue I've had is with the networkmanager plasmoid18:46
spacelimemakdaknife: ok! i was thinking perhaps karmic play along better with 4.3 than jaunty but maybe it's not an issue?18:46
makdaknifespacelime: easily gotten around using knetworkmanager or wicd18:46
spacelimeok!18:46
makdaknifespacelime: yeah its pretty rock solid...18:46
makdaknifespacelime: you need to add backports to get the 4.3 stuff though18:47
spacelimesounds good.... perhaps i should hold my horses and go for jaunty then =)18:47

Byron_Hello everyone. I can't seem to get my nVidia GeForce 7600GS to work. I get TTY instead of a GUI. I tried 180 and 96 for the nvidia drivers and still no luck. It continues to fail.18:48
makdaknifespacelime: its not so long until karmic gets released... so its probably pretty stable18:48
spacelimeyou think it will be all smooth upgrading to karmic when it reaches rc? i'm a little worried i will have to make a clean install of karmic in a few weeks and that would be a bit of a hazzle18:48
makdaknifespacelime: I doubt you will have too many issues with an upgrade...18:49
spacelimegreat..... another thing though... is those nasty ext4 bugs resovled yet?18:49
makdaknifespacelime: but if you're confident and you've already dipped your toe in the karmic waters... maybe you should give it a try18:50
spacelimei heard it could break the system not too long ago18:50
spacelimemakdaknife: hehe.... yes i'm sure tempted to follow the way of the koala18:50
makdaknifespacelime: that's part of the reason I haven't switched up to karmic yet... but I haven't been following the news too closely for a couple of weeks18:50
