[21:06] <ericcc> Hi all
[21:07] <ericcc> I'm running Xubuntu Karmic alpha-5, and im having problems mounting my 1TB external NTFS hard disk
[21:07] <ericcc> it tells me "Cannot get volume.fstype.alternative"
[21:08] <ericcc> when i mount it manually it works fine however. I noticed there was a bug logged for this problem at the end of june but it has been closed. I've run chkdsk on the disk, dirty bit is not set, so its a bit of a mystery :s

[22:00] <nox404> ok so, i need to add a few commands to be exicuted when X is loaded. How would i go about doing that?
[22:01]  * jarnos wonders what Xorg is doing as it takes so much CPU
[22:06] <Sysi> failing mauybe
[22:06] <Sysi> it still is quite heavy when it works as it should
[23:13] <Ese> for some reason my usb doesn't work on my laptop
[23:13] <Ese> it works in "the other OS"
[23:14] <Sysi> what filesystem?
[23:15] <Ese> ext4
[23:16] <Sysi> hmm, sorry but i'll need to go to bed, way too late here
[23:17] <Techie> Ese- whats your problem?
[23:18] <Ese> my usb mouse is not working on my laptop
[23:18] <Ese> it did worked on other OS's
[23:18] <Ese> it works on windows and opensuse
[23:18] <Techie> what type of USB mouse?
[23:19] <Techie> is it generic or is it a brandname?
[23:19] <Ese> it seems very generic to me
[23:19] <Techie> this may help, run lsusb in terminal and post the output to pastebin
[23:20] <Techie> the mouse must be plugged in during this time, if it wasnt blatantly obvious already
[23:21] <Ese> http://pastebin.com/m57248d14
[23:21] <Ese> hehe
[23:21] <Ese> I'm not that n00b
[23:21] <Techie> didnt think you were, but ive seen people that are
[23:22] <Techie> okay, i think this is the line we are interested in
[23:22] <Techie> Bus 001 Device 003: ID 04f2:b159 Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd
[23:22] <Ese> yeah
[23:22] <Ese> that's it
[23:26] <Techie> hrmm, this laptop happent ot be a HP laptop
[23:27] <Ese> yes, a probook 4410s
[23:27] <Techie> i found a couple of bug reports for this issue, but no answers as of yet
[23:27] <Techie> ill keep looking
[23:28] <Ese> I found someone making the suggestion of trying sudo update-usbids
[23:28] <Techie> run this please, mseg|grep usb
[23:28] <Ese> and magically seemed to work out the issue, but not for me
[23:29] <Ese> mseg?
[23:29] <Ese> it says that is not a command
[23:29] <Techie> kk
[23:30] <Techie> have you tried any of the other USB ports?
[23:30] <Ese> yep
[23:30] <Ese> all 4
[23:30] <Techie> kk
[23:30] <Techie> that cancels out that idea
[23:33] <Ese> it seems to be a kernel related problem
[23:33] <Techie> man, untill i saw some of these reports, i never thought there was such a thing as too much information
[23:33] <Ese> heh
[23:33] <Techie> http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com/msg1582640.html <---- TOO MUCH INFO
[23:34] <Ese> "I was wearing an awesome "vote for pedro" t-shirt and a pair of white chucks when all of the sudden the mouse stop working"
[23:36] <Ese> these kind of silly issues is why linux is not for everyone
[23:36] <Techie> yeah, and its also why we have large support groups like this
[23:37] <Techie> hello SiDi
[23:38] <SiDi> hi
[23:39] <Techie> honestly, i cant seem to find anything remotely useful
[23:42] <Ese> it's frustrating
[23:42] <Ese> such a small issue
[23:42] <Techie> i know how you feel
[23:42] <Ese> I've tried every usb device on my house
[23:42] <Ese> and they all work
[23:42] <Ese> even my wlan connection worked out of the box
[23:42] <Techie> may i suggest an alternative
[23:42] <Ese> bluetooth, everything
[23:42] <Ese> suer
[23:43] <Techie> buy a different mouse
[23:43] <Ese> heh
[23:43] <Ese> yeah, I was thinking about
[23:43] <Ese> this one is not particulary small for a laptop
[23:43] <Techie> ive learnt from experience that sometimes you jsut have to give up, thats why im running a windows server now instead of ubuntu
[23:44] <SiDi> whats going on ?
[23:44] <Techie> usb mouse issues
[23:44] <SiDi> come on
[23:44] <Ese> well I must say that opensuse completely did for me, what a great distro that is
[23:44] <Techie> http://pastebin.com/m57248d14 <----- output from lsusb
[23:44] <SiDi> if it doesnt work right after plug its most likely the kernel not recognising your motherboard correctly
[23:45] <Techie> hehe, SiDi's always on the ball
[23:48] <SiDi> SiDi is mostly on the way to his warm bed :D
[23:48] <SiDi> Ese: if i were you i would google "usb mouse doesnt work + your laptop's model"
[23:49] <SiDi> you can also perform a search in bugzilla.kernel.org about similar issues
