[00:00] pedro3005, i'm not that noob..i did exactly like you typed [00:00] pedro3005, ;) [00:00] so regardless what you think of it, you get booted if you dont follow it [00:00] then you wont get any help [00:00] pedro3005: just pickin on me [00:00] cuz im a girl [00:00] big man pedro [00:00] woo hoo [00:00] pickin on a girl [00:00] wow [00:00] takes alot to do that. [00:00] hey FisherQueen there are other girls here too [00:00] your the only one making a bad showing for your gender [00:00] then maybe they need to have a frickin voice just like I do [00:00] men are a waste [00:01] FisherQueen, you can't expect to be respected if you don't respect others [00:01] FisherQueen: I do believe, as I said earlier, you should go idle in #debian-women [00:01] there are many there in that share your disdain [00:01] and you will probably get better help in there [00:01] than in here. [00:01] I think most people are just ignoring you here [00:01] FisherQueen: Your making it very bad for yourself...leave while you still have the option to do so [00:02] we aren't opposed to helping women [00:02] just brats === Flare183_ is now known as Flare183 [00:02] you callin me a brat Vantrax [00:02] thats really mature [00:02] yep [00:02] FisherQueen: nothing here but geeks [00:02] seriously [00:02] my little girl behaves better [00:02] we're just opposed to helping the uneducated and ungrateful [00:02] so does mine, and shes 2.5 [00:03] compiledkernel, Vantrax , and both girls are probably smarter than the both of you put together. [00:03] would you mind moving your off topic comments to another channel ? [00:03] yeah [00:03] I was actually trying to help serverduck [00:03] could somebody maybe make a point around here? [00:03] i was trying to help FisherQueen, but gave up... [00:03] hmmmm [00:04] serverduck, now, can you paste the full output of "ls -a ~" on pastebin? [00:04] bodhi_zazen, what offtopic are you talking about? [00:04] pleia2, Phrea, geirha, and any other women like names, You need to straighten up these worthless men, and get the show on the road. Stupid oppressed females. [00:04] serverduck: Dont worry about it [00:04] Oh IDK serverduck =) [00:05] I hope that was a troll [00:05] anything come to mind ? [00:05] bodhi_zazen: Can I talk to you [00:05] pedro3005: as do I. [00:05] pedro3005, as I told you I'm not a noob when it comes to computers I programmed on windows a lot [00:05] lol [00:05] pedro3005, i have no file .gtodo [00:05] why did nobody take any action? [00:05] pedro3005, i know a little things about terminal to:P [00:05] serverduck, or any file that looks like it could be related to gtodo? [00:06] let me install this and see [00:06] pedro3005, none... === jamalta-afk is now known as jamalta [00:07] pedro3005, i see my good old nexuiz there and other files but no .gtodo or anything related [00:07] pedro3005, i see my wicd there too...:) [00:08] pedro3005, I'm not an expert at linux but i know how to keep a computer in my hand..hehehehe:) [00:08] serverduck, hm... well.. maybe "sudo apt-get install gtodo" then "sudo apt-get purge gtodo" [00:08] really ugly [00:08] but what else [00:09] pedro3005, i thought about that too...i will give it a try ... [00:09] well that was an interesting interchange [00:10] =) [00:10] twice Ive run into that girl today , and now the second time, I never want to see her again. [00:10] I hope you do not miss the queen much, but I think she got the help she needed =) [00:11] pedro3005, when apt-get install i get " a bunch of things then failed to parse default value "SANT" for schema...." [00:11] I suspect we may not see her for a while [00:11] compiledkernel, I suspect it was only an angry person (possibly not a girl) wanting to curse other people [00:11] serverduck, that happened to me too [00:11] just go on [00:11] pedro3005, tried apt-get install and apt-get purge but that task entry is still there:( [00:11] serverduck, where? [00:11] pedro3005: can only hope [00:12] compiledkernel, nobody can be that stupid for real! [00:12] pedro3005, well in the task bar i have date and time and also weather report...if i click date and time i get the callendar the location and also a task entry which as asdasd as tasks... [00:13] pedro3005, when i installed it i created a test task called asdasd [00:13] serverduck, tried re-starting? [00:14] pedro3005, rerestarting what?:) [00:14] serverduck, GNOME [00:14] hello compiledkernel [00:14] I need help changing volume ownership FROM root [00:14] pedro3005, i don't know how to restart gnome [00:15] serverduck, anything against re-starting the whole PC? [00:15] pedro3005, no...:) [00:16] pedro3005, does re restarting gone require a full computer restart? [00:16] serverduck, no [00:16] but restarting the pc is easier :P [00:17] pedro3005, i have this problem for like 5 days...rerestarted the pc endless times:) [00:17] :O [00:18] serverduck, try removing then adding the panel outlet? [00:18] pedro3005, tried that too..no luck:( [00:18] serverduck, tried installing GToDo, opening it, deleting asdasd, then purging it? [00:19] I (noob) need help changing volume ownership FROM root [00:19] pedro3005, tried [00:19] ARC0112358, volume ownership? [00:20] yeah - root owns my 'media drive' and I cannot do anything on it [00:20] pedro3005, maybe restarting the gnome could help [00:20] ARC0112358, chown? [00:20] serverduck, GNOME restarts every time the pc restarts [00:21] pedro3005, I am such a noob that I dont know that [00:21] ARC0112358, don't worry [00:21] I don't know it too good either [00:21] pedro3005, is that a sudo commnd? [00:21] pedro3005, ohh well this isn't gonna work since i ;ve restarted it many times and still the same [00:23] ARC0112358, as root, run "sudo chown -R /path/to/drive" [00:23] serverduck, darn [00:23] ARC0112358, ops [00:23] so to be root I run sudo nautilus? [00:23] sorry [00:23] ARC0112358: yes [00:23] ok [00:24] here goes [00:24] ARC0112358, no, first run "sudo su" [00:24] duanedesign, ? [00:24] ARC0112358: its better to do everything with sudo than change the ownership of /media [00:24] duanedesign, oh [00:25] please clarify [00:25] ARC0112358: one sec ill get a link that explains Ubuntu permissions/root well [00:25] u guys rock [00:25] pedro3005, :( [00:25] serverduck, hm.. well [00:26] ARC0112358: By default, the root account password is locked in Ubuntu. This means that you cannot login as root directly or use the su command to become the root user. However, since the root account physically exists it is still possible to run programs with root-level privileges. This is where sudo comes in [00:27] ARC0112358: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [00:27] duanedesign, ok [00:27] ARC0112358: and actually to open a nautilus window its gksudo nautilus :) [00:27] is that the way to go? nautilus? [00:28] serverduck, you can try to reach the author at http://blog.sarine.nl/ [00:28] this is the part where you tell me to read that post right? :) [00:28] ARC0112358: if it opens a window use gksudo. If its a text only command like sudo mv this/file to/here [00:28] use sudo [00:29] ARC0112358, just run nautilus as root (with gksudo) and navigate there and use it [00:29] pedro3005, :( [00:30] pedro3005, found no contact info there [00:30] serverduck, leave a comment [00:30] pedro3005, yeah i will thank you so much [00:31] OK - sorry. So - execute gksudo nautilus and then the above command 'sudo chown -R /path [00:31] ? [00:32] ARC0112358, no [00:32] that little command you will forget [00:32] glad I asked... [00:32] my fault [00:32] :) [00:32] sorry [00:32] * pedro3005 is stupid [00:32] :( [00:32] please clarify [00:34] ARC0112358, heh [00:34] yeah [00:34] ARC0112358, You shouldn't do what I told you to [00:34] ok [00:34] pedro3005, listen to this.. [00:34] pedro3005, I am not working on gtodo 0.16 anymore. [00:34] I started on a gtodo2, but lack of time put that on a hold too. [00:35] he's not working on it, but he should know how to do what you want [00:36] pedro3005, i leaved him a comment hope he will reply thanks so much pedro [00:36] serverduck, :) === bodhizazen is now known as bodhi_zazen [00:38] duanedesign, you still there? if you or pedro could clarify this task I'd appreciate it. [00:39] yes [00:39] ARC0112358: what are you trying to do? [00:39] I have a media drive that I somehow gave root the ownership of, and I can't write to it anymore - its read only [00:40] I want to be able to write files to it as my user [00:40] ARC0112358, just write to it as root [00:41] Applications aren't installed as root [00:41] I log in as user too, not root [00:42] duanedesign, maybe he could create a group of users who can write to the file, then add root/self to it, chown it etc? [00:42] dunno [00:43] apps and suser need to write to it... dpecifically mediatomb [00:43] ok. how did you add the drive? [00:44] It was originally manu-mounted and then I installed an app that auto-mounts it at startup [00:44] kde partition manger maybe? [00:44] you use kde? [00:45] Idon't use anything but GUIs on the front end of anything that sounds like what I need [00:45] wb [00:45] ARC0112358: is the drive FAT or ext4? [00:45] I think it was ntfs [00:45] ok [00:46] is that the issue? [00:46] Phrea: Wb who?
