Tiders-Asus 9600GT01:35

OxDeadC0deanyone have experience with 03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01) in 9.10? It was working with ndiswrapper in 8.10 and 9.04 now it won't06:52
OxDeadC0dewl scans fine but won't connect... and I just added the network manager applet from  the repo (Before I was running it compiled), and when I try to add a connection it crashes (And with the old compiled network manager applet it wouldn't connect.. ever)06:53
Tm_Tyang_: B2 ?06:53

bakarati can't shut down kubuntu anymore, since latest update both hibernate and regular shutdown (even sudo shutdown now) do NOT work, they work up to a point, the screen goes black, but the computer stays on, i have to hit the powerbutton to power it down07:05
|OxDeadC0de|never mind, it all was working I guess but the old network-manager applet I had manually compiled and installed was interfering with things.. luckily I still had the makefile so I did a make uninstall07:05
et_bakarat: do you get a graphical login, or do you log in on the console?07:06
bakaratet_, graphical07:06
et_bakarat: it sounds like a process isn't stopping and the computer is waiting for it to quit (which it won't). My mom's computer does that intermittently, and it's the bluetooth module.07:10
bakaratet_, odd though, i've been running ubuntu/kubuntu on this machine for a year, no problems until the last update07:11
et_bakarat: do you remember what was in the update?07:11
bakaratet_, no :(07:12
=== Neel is now known as Neel03
bakaratet_, is there any way to trace what is hanging the system?07:12
Neel03hello world :)07:12
bakaratet_, o btw, if it helps, when i go into hibernate, it first gives the message "screen is locked", but it continues anyway07:12
bakaratet_, most applications do not "lock" the screen iirc?07:13
et_bakarat: if there is, I don't know what it is. As to hibernate, I think that's normal. It's locking the screen so that, if your computer is accessed when it wakes up, the baddies can't get at your data.07:14
et_bakarat: do you kpackagekit for updates?07:15
bakaratet_, ah hehe, hadn't seen that warning before :>07:15
bakaratet_, no, synaptic07:15
bakaratet_, and/or apt-get07:15
bakaratet_, uh, not synaptic, i mean the update manager07:16
bakaratet_, whatever program that is :>07:16
et_bakarat: Let's take a shot in the dark. Open synaptic, go to file, and select history. See if the update is listed there (by date).07:17
bakaratet_, nope, not there :(07:18
iconmefistodoes aptitude show update history?07:19
iconmefistoI mean, can aptitude do that07:20
et_iconmefisto: take a look at /var/log/aptitude07:22
et_bakarat: you might want to look at /var/log/dpkg.log07:25
bakaratet_, /var/log/apt/term.log seems to be more complete07:26
et_Oh, OK. I always use Aptitude, so my term.log is blank.07:26
bakarat:>07:26
bakaratet_, http://pastebin.com/m212cb50807:29
et_bakarat: regarding your hanging app, you might take a look at ksystemlog (or the GNOME equivalent). Looking at your file, I would expect gdm to be the troublemaker, but I think it could be anything in the list.07:33
judgeni have a tiny problem.. not a showstopper.  but kdm refuses to start at bootup. I have to start it manually from cli. Kinda renders the usage of kdm void of purpose.07:35
judgenI might as well just use the xinit script and skip kdm alltogether.07:36
judgenbut it aint as pretty. (i know im fickle)07:36
et_judgen: is this a new problem?07:39
judgenet_: yup never had it before07:57
judgenbut then again i usually use kde3.07:57
et_Well then, I must ask THE QUESTION, what has changed since it last worked properly?07:58
judgeni installed kdm4 =P08:01
et_How did you install it?08:02
judgenregular aptitude install08:02
et_If you were using kde3, does that mean you're using an older Ubuntu?08:03
judgenno 9.1008:05
judgenim still using kde3 and kde4 in paralell.08:05
judgenwhen i launch kdm4 i just choose wich session i want.08:05
judgenkde3 is installed in /opt/kde3 whilst kde4 is installed in the regular location.08:07
et_Okay, let me see if I understand: you installed 9.10 (comes with KDE 4.3), you then install KDE3 (from source?), update kdm, and now get a console logon?08:08
judgenNo i installed kde3 first.08:08
judgenthen installed kde408:08
judgendoes that make sense?08:12
et_judgen: let's try sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm08:12
et_judgen: not really, but that's OK.08:12
judgeni used the official kde3 repos after installing ubuntu 9.10 via netboot.08:13
et_That sounds more advanced than anything I've tried.08:15
judgeni always use netboot, then i dont have to burn an entire cd.08:15
et_I use USB keys for the same reason.08:16

subitook, it's not a very important problem, but still :d09:33
alveraanHi there. I'm having trouble with the kde4 shutdown/reboot/... button (kickoff menu). Clicking it doesn't do anything. Has anyone experienced the same problem? Does anyone know what that button actually does or if it's configurable?09:34
Mamarokalveraan: it works fine here, what KDE version do you have?09:35
alveraanMamarok, well, it's kde 4, latest version in 9.10 stable, all upgrades applied.09:38
Mamarokwhich is KDE 4.3.2 then09:39
Mamarokthat button should work, don't you see a small window appear in the middle of the screen?09:39
alveraanyes I do, but clicking it has no effect. The button disappears and the next time I try, even the "middle" window doesn't appear. poweroff command in terminal works fine09:40
alveraanMamarok, I guess whatever script / command that is executed "behind the scene" hangs. If only I knew what that button does I could try to get more output or some error message using the terminal. But google doesn't help much :-(09:47
Mamarokalveraan: well, it shows you what you basically can see in the menu when you go on that part of it: it ask you if you want to use suspend, shutdown or reboot09:48
Mamarokalveraan: did you try removing the widget and put it back again?09:49
alveraanMamarok, I tried to but I don't know how. The menu editor doesn't seem to offer that option.09:51
Mamarokyou did put it in the panel, right?09:52
Mamarokthe button I mean09:52
Mamarokright click on it to remove it, then click on the cashew at the extreme right and add widget again09:52
alveraanMamarok, nope I'm talking about the button that it part of the kde menu09:53
MaexHi!09:53
Mamarokoh, that is strange, I thought you wer talking about the widget09:53
alveraanMamarok, the "leave" button. See here: http://www.prashanthellina.com/images/kde4_menu.gif09:53
Mamarokalveraan: did you ever click on that button? it should show you another menu09:54
dihaehello09:55
MaexProblem: I tried to install Kubuntu 9.10 on my Desktop PC, but there came some errors (I think) and when the GUI came up it said "ubuntu will be logged on. A hard error occured" (translated from german ^^). Now there is the login-screen, but I didn't create an user!09:55
MaexWhat's wrong there?09:55
Mamarokalveraan: above, where you can choose all the options09:55
dihaeI take it that virtuoso isn't packaged yet?09:56
MamarokMaex: what does it say exactly in German?09:56
Mamarokdihae: no, not yet09:56
Maex"ubuntu wird angemeldet... Es ist ein schwerer Fehler aufgetreten. Sehen sie bitte in den Protokolldateien..."09:56
dihaenevermind, I just found kubuntu's todo list09:56
Mamarokwell, you need to check the log files, the error is described there09:56
MamarokMaex: else, we can only guess09:56
MaexWhere do I find them?09:57
MamarokMaex: are you sure it says "angemeldet"?09:57
alveraanMamarok, yes. When I click that button, the options appear above. Then, when I click on "Shutdown" nothing happens. Sorry if I didn't give enough details ;-)09:57
MaexYes09:57
Mamarokalveraan: well, you said just shutdown button, so I assumed you were talking about the widget09:58
Mamarokalveraan: try adding the widget to the panel and try that09:58
MamarokMaex: so while you were installing, before you even added your name for the user settings, it switched?09:58
MaexI placed the CD into the drive, the PC boots from the CD, I clicked "Install Kubuntu".09:59
MaexWait, wait, wait09:59
MaexError message --> Login window10:00
MamarokMaex: the log files are all written to /var/log, but I don't think there even are any, as the user settings is done before you install something10:00
MaexI also was not able to set the partitions10:00
MaexOr to "deinstall" Windows10:01
MamarokMaex: well, then something is wrong with your machine. Can you actually run the Live CD?10:01
MaexMamarok: The LiveCD wants the Login, too10:02
MaexPerhaps I have to format the HDD first... With Knoppix or something else10:02
Mamarokwhen you start your computer with the Live CD?10:02
alveraanMamarok, ok I'll try it. Thank you10:02
MamarokMaex: when you start your computer with the Live CD?10:04
MaexMamarok: The LiveCD wants the Login, too10:04
MaexBut I'll try it again10:04
MamarokMaex: if you start the live CD and run Kubuntu from the live CD it will not ask for any login entries10:05
Mamarokelse you have a very strange CD10:05
MaexNow the CD is tested10:06
MamarokMaex: also, it's pointless to use Knoppix, it is just another Live CD and would install Knoppix instead, doesn't make much sense10:06
MamarokMaex: well, start Kubuntu from that CD, without installing10:06
MaexOk, I'll try10:06
Mamarokif it doesn't run, then you have a serious hardware problem10:06
Maex"Check finished: errors found in 1 file!"10:07
MaexThat could be the problem10:08
shadeslayerMaex: i think you should rewrite the CD10:08
MaexSearch for a new blank CD10:09
shadeslayerMaex: cant you boot off a USB?10:09
Maexhmm, nice idea ;)10:11
shadeslayerMaex: its a pretty good option :P10:11

shanklyhi all, today I want to polemize. Why for opensuse, fedora and even gentoo, are avalaible kde 4.4 beta 2 packages and for ubuntu we have to wait every time 2 weeks???? why is kubuntu considered like a kids game??11:02
shadeslayershankly: ah you may not know but 4.4 packages just hit the repos... im upgrading right now11:03
MaexWhite on black: "Boot Failure. Reboot and Select proper Boot device or insert Boot Media in selected Boot device. Press any key when ready"11:03

MaexUNetbootin11:04
shanklyshadeslayer: i'm happy for that, and I apologize.11:04
shadeslayerhmm... did you select the correct ISO? like 32 bit or 64 bit?11:04
MaexYes11:04
MaexFormatting to FAT should not be the problem, right?11:05
shadeslayerMaex: it should be fat...11:05
Maexok11:05
shadeslayerMaex: try writing the USB again...11:05
shadeslayerMaex: if it doesnt work md5sum the iso11:05
Maex:-| ok11:05
shadeslayerMaex: this can take a few tries :P11:06
shanklyshadeslayer: but every time I read on kde.org "Packages for opensuse,fedora..... are avalaible", and I don't see kubuntu in the list I'm frustrated11:06
shadeslayershankly: take it out in kde then... we dont have control over kde.org :P11:06
shadeslayer#kde i mean11:06
shadeslayershankly: and frankly whether or not kubuntu is on that list hardly matters11:07
shanklyshadeslayer: So, I can join the kde channell and say that are avalaible beta 2 packages?11:07
shadeslayershankly: well not officially no11:08

dondino_but now, everytime i start up the computer, i always have to choose KDE before logging?15:47
shadeslayerdondino_: um by default you should log into KDE15:47
dondino_lets see, i try to reboot it15:47
shadeslayerdondino_: ok15:47

millunand what about "falling back to <foo> sound device" problem? will there EVER be a fix to this? or should i really remove pulseaudio or what16:15
shadeslayer_dondino_: just add the smooth tasks plasmoid to the taskbar,use the glassified theme and some plugins in the desktop settings such as highlight window and voila!16:15

=== shadeslayer_ is now known as shadeslayer

shadeslayermy brightness increases and decreases in steps of 2 :P16:17
macomillun: in systemsettings, go to multimedia and put pulseaudio at the top of all the lists16:17
dondino_would be possible to install DEBIAN or anthoer distro right directly from Ubuntu and choose which one to start with?16:17
macomillun: then itll prefer pulseaudio instead of "falling back" from direct hardware mode to pulseaudio mode16:17

macodondino_: thats up to the distro whether they have a way to install from a different distro16:18

macodondino_: i know debian can be installed from windows using goodbyemicrosoft.com (i think thts the url)16:19
macowell there IS lubi16:19
macoso it is possible16:19
macolubi is the linux counterpart to wubi16:19
dondino_yes but i make you an example. I used to have a pc which could boot in 3 different ways: XP PRO - win 2003 - VISTA16:19
macobut i dont know what distros have used it16:19
dondino_would be possible to make the same with LINUX and different distros?16:19
macoyes of course you can triple boot16:20
macojust saying i dont think you can do the installation from within ubuntu. youd still need to boot from a cd16:20
macoor a flash drive if your computer can do that16:20
dondino_ahh... that way yes...16:20
dondino_i installed xubuntu but... its Xfce in the menu now?16:21

fa4anaheimRight, Intel or AMD?19:04
ioobfa4anaheim, Intel19:04
ioobfa4anaheim, is the alternate 64bit disc for amd only? I've noticed that it has amd in the disc title. If this is the case, can I get an x64 Intel disc, or do I need to use the x86 alternate disc?19:05
hagabakayay, I have desktop effects again!19:05
fa4anaheimWell I can't figure out why it is prompting you to insert the AMD64 cd if you have an X86 chip...hangon, I am going to try a install on another machine and see if I can get the same result...19:07
ioobfa4anaheim, thank you. Is there any harm to just using the x86 alternate disc? I know that in theory, the x64 disc will utilize my system resources better, but...19:07

ioobfa4anaheim, just to clarify, I have two logical disks. One is an NTFS formatted RAID1. I want to leave that one alone and install Kubuntu on the other logical disk. Didn't know if I mentioned both before19:26
fa4anaheimioob: Ok, you're second disk, is it part of the RAID?19:27
ioobfa4anaheim, no. It is all on it's own.19:28
fa4anaheimioob: Ok good, are they IDE or SATA?19:28
ioobfa4anaheim, All are SATA, the RAID1 is intel onboard hardware19:28
ioobfa4anaheim, the RAID1 has the backup of all of the files that i wish to keep on it, so i'd rather not lose it if possible19:28
fa4anaheimioob: Ok, well all sounds good...did the Karmic Installer even see the RAID?19:29
ioobfa4anaheim, I first tried with the graphical installer. It saw the raid, but when I tried to choose the other disk from the drop down box, the installer crashed. At that point, I downloaded the alternate disk. It can see the RAID, turns on support for it, and gives me the option to install to it. I chose to install to the other disk instead and to leave the RAID alone19:30
fa4anaheimioob: Ahhh, ok. Sounds like the Intel chipset is wanting to overide the installer, couple of options...19:32
fa4anaheimioob: Are you wanting to mount the RAID1 once Kubuntu is installed?19:32

fa4anaheimioob: Ok, well we either need to change the BIOS or the hard drive configuration...the Intel chipset is set to operate with the RAID1 protocal which is contridicting what we are trying to do with the Karmic install...19:36
ioobfa4anaheim, so do i need to break the RAID apart? or can I change the install options19:36
fa4anaheimioob: No, you shouldn't have to mess with it. I just setup my RAID5 with RAID1 behaivor so now I am going to try another install...19:38
ioobfa4anaheim, thanks. The RAID1 isn't terribly important. I've thought about breaking it apart anyway. The only important thing is that I don't lose the data that's on it19:39
fa4anaheimioob: Ok, well since it is the data that is important and not the setup we had better just leave it alone for now...if it was RAID0 then we'd really be screwed! :)19:41

Vroomfondleas it appears to be Opera-related, to be honest you might have more luck asking on their user forums though19:47
Vroomfondleat first glance it seems like a bug in Opera, though it might be a bug in QT I guess19:48
GalvatronI had it in Opera 10.10 and now the same thing with 10.20 Alpha 119:48
GalvatronBut there's something more19:48
GalvatronSometimes monitor turns off on its own just after booting19:49
GalvatronAnd sometime the system doen't boot with an I/O error tty19:49
Vroomfondlethat's a bit odd.19:50
GalvatronI have  Radeon 9200SE with open drivers19:50
Vroomfondlesounds like Linux doesn't like your motherboard, perhaps19:50
fa4anaheimioob: Is your optical drive SATA aswell?19:51
GalvatronEpox P4X400D (Via chipset)19:51
GalvatronThe motherboard issu could explain Opera/mouse problems19:52
ioobfa4anaheim, optical drive is IDE. Also, the drive that I'm trying to install to is IDE. Sorry, gave you the wrong info before.19:52
EvilRoeyGalvatron:  you were made a  Texas Transistors?19:52
ioobfa4anaheim, Both RAID1 drives are SATA, the drive want to install to and the optical are both IDE19:52
VroomfondleGalvatron: yes, it might explain that19:53
EvilRoeyGalvatron:  btw... so it is definitively proven that Galvatron formed from Megatron?19:53
VroomfondleI don't know that motherboard though. I think the best you can do is probably to ask on the Ubuntu forums and google around for "epox p4x400d linux" or something19:54
fa4anaheimioob: That's ok...so her inlies the problem...try this, disconnect the RAID array from the mobo, then see if you can reboot and launch the installer...let me know what happens...I'm still tinkering around with my setup here but nothing yet :[19:54
ioobfa4anaheim, the machine didn't yell at me, and the installer is started. Will I be able to re-enable the SATA RAID1 after the install?19:56
fa4anaheimioob: Yes, I just wanted to see if you're BIOS were ok, and sounds like they are. Most of the time if you are using any RAID on SATA then when you're machine boots up the only thing it is looking for on an IDE channel is other media, optical, floppy, etc...19:58
ioobfa4anaheim, should i proceed with the install with the RAID1 drives disconnected?19:59
ioobfa4anaheim, and if so, what partitioning options would you recommend, knowing that I'll want to reconnect the RAID1 after the install? Can I use an LVM to make everything appear as a single logical disk?19:59
fa4anaheimioob: Yea, continue with install, Karmic has a bootstapper for RAID and it sounds like it was trying to do just that to you...20:01
ioobfa4anaheim, when installing, should i use an LVM so that I can add the raid after, or should i just use the entire disk? I haven't really used LVM's much in the past aside from full disk encryption, so i'm not sure exactly what's possible20:02
fa4anaheimioob: how big is the hd?20:03
ioobfa4anaheim, 500GB20:03
ioobfa4anaheim, the RAID1 is also 500GB20:03
the_cyber_guyi have selected to remove a panel from plasma desktop and suddently it crashed and now i m unable to add panel, pls help20:04
macoalt+f2 and run "plasma-desktop" maybe?20:04
fa4anaheimioob: Not worth it...LVM isn't really necessary until you cross the 5TB line...I'm typing up the partitioning table I use20:05
the_cyber_guydidnt worked either20:05
ioobfa4anaheim, thanks, I'd like to see how it's supposed to be done20:05
fa4anaheimioob: ioob: PRIMARY/ext4/boot (500mb)PRIMARY/ext4/root (<20gb) PRIMARY20:05
ioobfa4anaheim, the guided partitioner has given me a 12GB swap and a 488GB root, but no boot20:06
ioobfa4anaheim, i assume that it hasn't forgotten about the boot20:07
fa4anaheimioob: No, how much RAM do you have?20:07
ioob4GB20:07
ioobfa4anaheim, isn't the rule of thumb RAM*2 + 2GB20:07
fa4anaheimioob: Yea, and that's plenty, linux does not "require" a boot partition but I always throw it in so I don't crowd my ~/ with boot logs and errors.20:08
ioobfa4anaheim, so Kubuntu doesnt necessarily give me a boot part by default? Debian does it automatically20:09
fa4anaheimioob: On a x64 system Karmic will use part of the RAM + swap to "host" the boot session. Once the xserver is launched it closes the com and clears out the bytes.20:11
ioobfa4anaheim, that's fancy. My install is proceeding normally. do you mind if i msg you once it's done for a hand getting the RAID set up?20:11
ioobfa4anaheim, scratch that, the error is back again.20:12
fa4anaheimioob: Really, ok on to the BIOS...20:12

ioobfa4anaheim, the funny thing about this whole situation is that the live disc runs fine. I just can't get a full install done20:15
fa4anaheimioob: Optiarc, Sony I think..?20:16
ioobfa4anaheim, that's what Google tells me. it doesn't have any external markings. it's always just worked for me. any reason why you'20:17
ioobfa4anaheim, sorry, any reason why you suspect it may be the problem?20:17
fa4anaheimioob: Yea...20:17
Tm_Tdwayne: that ip is meant to be used in "private network" ... which means LAN or similar local network20:18
fa4anaheimioob: ...sorry I'm chatting with my brother, (unix master!)...20:18
dwayneTm_T: Ok I'm trying to figure out why it's proxying20:18

Tm_Troger20:19
fa4anaheimioob: Before we mess with the BIOS I want to look at something...You said you downloaded the .iso today?20:19
ioobfa4anaheim, that is correct. I used the 'alternate 64bit' link at http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download20:21
fa4anaheimioob: Ok...20:21

dwayneTm_T: Where can I check for what would be holding this proxy info?20:29
Tm_Tdwayne: I have no idea, I never use proxies (in a way I have to manage them)20:30
fa4anaheimioob: Oh, ok. Yea it won't, not unless you were planning on formating the RAID aswell. Ok, well I would give the desktop version a try...I'm still talking with my Brother, he said that Karmic Alt CD has had problems with some of the newer drives, so if you are just usin the graphical guide install then you don't really need to use the Alt CD...20:30
dwayneTm_T: Ok can I assume that if apt-get is connecting to a proxy then it's below the KDE level?20:30
ioobfa4anaheim, what is the difference between the desktop cd and the one that is downloaded by default if you just hit the download button?20:30
Tm_Tdwayne: possibly yes20:30

ubottuMany Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as !TOR and web (Java, etc) gateways due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks20:32
fa4anaheimioob: The desktop CD launches the Karmic desktop where you can then install it, as opposed to the "regular" install cd...this can be useful for us so we can use bash and other error logs to see what is going on before we actually install it to you're drive...20:33

Novicefa4anaheim: trying to follow your instructions above but what are the symols for are they required21:08
fa4anaheimNovice: Sorry...yes, the * means all or it will convert all files of that type. I assume you want to do a "batch" conversion, as opposed to one at a time...21:10
Novicefa4anaheim: correct21:10
fa4anaheimNovice: Then yes include the * FYI, if you were to want to convert a single file you would simply type the filename where the * is...21:11
Novicefa4anaheim: could you give me an example with this Florida Annual Sales Tax page1.pnm21:13
Novicefa4anaheim: Will be writing this stuff down!21:15
BluesKajNovice, make a text file and add to it as you learn new commands , and save every time you add or edit of course21:16

fa4anaheimNovice: Sure, pnmtojpeg "${Florida Annual Sales Tax page1}" > "${Florida Annual Sales Tax page1}-converted.jpg"21:17
BluesKajgive each command a meaning /refernce ,then you can refer back to the file21:18
Novicefa4anaheim: whats the jpeg for21:19
fa4anaheimNovice: So, this takes "page1" and converts it and saves the file with the same file name and adds "-converted" to the end...21:19

Novicefa4anaheim: could never get to the directory21:45
Scunizifa4anaheim: has imagemagick improved its ability to convert a pic to pdf .. I know it had issue in the past21:45
fa4anaheimNovice: Why?21:45
Novicefa4anaheim: couse im novice and dont know how21:46
fa4anaheimScunizi: For pictures not really, but in this case he has a bunch of scaned text so it should be fine...21:46

ioobhey guys, I have Kubuntu 9.10 installed on a dual monitor system, but it seemed to be recognizing both monitors as one and mirroring the desktop over them. I installed the proprietary nvidia drivers for my graphics card, and now it isn't recognizing the second monitor at all. any ideas?21:57
fa4anaheimNovice: Copy and paste this: http://pastebin.com/m89b8d4f21:57
Scuniziioob: from terminal try sudo nvidia-xconfig21:58
lukefeilioob: open the nvidia-settings and click on "detect monitors"21:59
Novicefa4anaheim: http://pastebin.com/m378ac55b22:01
Scunizifa4anaheim: that doesn't deal with the spaces in the file names .. you'll get the same results.. put the file names in quotes or use TAB for auto completion and bash will most likely use \ or something similar in the blank spaces22:02
iooblukefeil, where is the "detect monitors" in the utility?22:02
iooblukefeil, found it22:02
fa4anaheimNovice: Scunizi is right, put the filenames in quotes...22:03
Novicewow didnt realize it would take four houes to scan and convert on linux22:04
ioobfa4anaheim, I have to leave for work shortly, can you give me a quick rundown of what's required to migrate my RAID array into my install so that I can mount it automatically on startup?22:06
ScuniziNovice: one of the other ways to convert if you can open the files in the scanning program is to just "print" them to a PDF print driver.. you'll have to install the driver though.. not difficult.. it will save the resulting file in a directory called PDF in your /home22:07
fa4anaheimioob: Sure, once you hook it back up you have to find out what it is called; fdisk -l | grep NTFS22:08
NoviceOh thank god I finally got it the quotes worked yeah!!!!!!!22:08
fa4anaheimioob: Prob something like /dev/sdb1/ or whatever...22:09
NoviceThank you all for your help now I can finish this finnaly22:09
ScuniziNovice: if you have multiple files you want to combine.. pdfshuffler will do it.22:09
fa4anaheimNovice: Yea!22:10
ioobfa4anaheim, no output22:10
ScuniziI think it's called that.22:10
fa4anaheimioob: Are they hooked back up?22:10
ioobfa4anaheim, however, I can actually see the RAID in Dolphin. But it shows up as two separate drives22:10
ioobfa4anaheim, yes, i can see them. How come it shows two drives in Dolphin?22:10
fa4anaheimioob: Ok, then it is not seeing the actual RAID just 2 hdds...22:10
ioobfa4anaheim, that's correct. I wrote a file to one and it didn't appear on the other22:11
ioobfa4anaheim, so, i assume i need a driver or something now?22:11
fa4anaheimioob: No, we just need to assemble them...tell me what output you get when you type this; fdisk -l | grep raid22:12
ioobfa4anaheim, it gives me a warning. says that a GPT was detected on /dev/sda and on /dev/sdb, and that fdisk doesn't support GPT. It claims i should use gparted22:14
ioobfa4anaheim, GNU Parted*22:14
fa4anaheimioob: No gparted is the gnome partitioner...22:15
ioobfa4anaheim, if i have a hardware RAID array, why is the OS seeing it as separate drives? Do I need a driver or some firmware or something for the hardware RAID?22:16
fa4anaheimioob: No drivers, RAID is all done at the hardware level...it is prob bc it is NTFS that it is not seeing it as a RAID...22:20
ioobso i should try to migrate the data over to my install disk and then reformat?22:21
fa4anaheimioob: No, shouldn't have to...Karmic is more than able to rw NTFS...22:22
