[00:02] Can you mount a drive as a user? [00:03] automount isn't working. [00:04] you 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 else [00:04] or just mount /dev/devicename [00:06] kaddi: 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] inanimate: and it does not show up in dolphin or anywhere? [00:07] I'm actually doing this over ssh. [00:08] Is there a way to use automount from the command line, given I don't have access to Dolphin? [00:08] ah, 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 line [00:08] you can however get access to dolphin, if you use ssh -X to login [00:08] Ah, OK. Thanks though. [00:09] if you start dolphin then, it should open on your desktop, however it will be slow as hell [00:10] True. It looks like Dolphin got removed from this machine unfortunately... [00:10] I suppose it's not the Kubuntu it once was =). [00:10] are you sure it's a ubuntu? what version of kde is installed on it? [00:10] lol [00:10] do a lsb_release -a it should tell you what it is [00:11] Oh shit, it's Karmic. [00:11] I didn't see that coming. [00:11] o.o [00:11] I thought it was Jaunty this whole time. [00:11] well maybe ask at #ubuntu+1 , someone might now.. however dolphin should still exist [00:12] No, I think the sysadmin removed it. [00:12] well try konqueror the same basicness applies, it should automatically recognize mountable devices [00:13] Yeah, that's gone too. I'm pretty sure 95% of the GUI apps were removed. [00:13] is that a server? [00:13] It's still [K]ubuntu, but it doesn't have much in the way of GUI left. [00:14] It's acting as one, yeah. [00:14] ok, well I'm no good then ;) [00:14] Heh... No problem. Thanks though. [00:15] Anyone know how to mount a drive from the command line? [00:15] maybe ask in #ubuntu or #ubuntu+1 without a gui ubuntu is basically the same ;) [00:16] (I'll rephrase it this time =).) === Guest21595 is now known as Authority [00:16] Yeah.

[00:19] hehe [01:08] hey im trying to see if my graphic card works correctly, but the command: glxinfo grep rendering wont work i get the error Unknown option `grep' any ideas? [01:10] sebastian: you forgot the pipe, the syntax is glxinfo | grep something [01:11] so glxinfo | grep render should tell you, if your graphic card ca do direct rendering [01:11] hehe, ya that worked thx :) [01:12] is there any other commands just to make sure everything is working correctly? im trying to run world of warcraft but got bad fps [01:14] hm, let me see... man glxinfo gives some infos too [01:14] !glxinfo [01:14] Sorry, I don't know anything about glxinfo [01:14] ok thank you :) [01:14] you are welcome :) [01:17] Hello..
