| phillw | hmm, if you can mount the win partition with ubuntu, have a look around and see what is on there, defragging is always a 'hi risk' time, much as we say to back up before playing with partitions. | 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| lobinho | oh, that reminds me of something I'd like to ask you guys... is there a way I could make a script for another user to execute, that would perform actions in my own account? like, I want other people to be able to run specific commands in my account when I'm not logged in, or even at home... they wouldn't be able to read or alter the script, so it doesn't matter if I have to write my password | 00:04 |
| canozan_ | does anyone have any experince with testdisk? | 00:05 |
| phillw | canozan_: I don't, but this thread has a how to & is still active http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=387922 | 00:09 |
| Scunizi | canozan_: worked for me about 2 years ago.. don't remember how to use it though. | 00:19 |
| canozan_ | <Scunizi> i'm dying to say the same things tomorrow | 00:21 |
| Scunizi | canozan_: did you loose the partition info? that's what happened to me. | 00:22 |
| canozan_ | <Scunizi> i'm not sure, i can see my partitions on the terminal, but their sizes have changed | 00:22 |
| Scunizi | canozan_: can you get at the data? | 00:23 |
| canozan_ | <Scunizi> yes, i can see my files, but i'm not sure if all of them are right there | 00:23 |
| Scunizi | canozan_: try copying them to a different partition on your linux side | 00:24 |
| canozan_ | <Scunizi>yes, i'm getting my backup somewhere | 00:25 |
| Scunizi | canozan_: do you need windows? gaming, work etc? if not do you have the install cd? you could put it in a vm with virtualbox.. | 00:26 |
| canozan_ | <Scunizi>i need windows, at least i can reinstall it with my cd, but i want to recover it | 00:30 |
| Scunizi | canozan_: give that program a try.. it's sort of a last resort thing anyway.. save off all your data first | 00:31 |
| starcraftman | who said testdisK? | 00:32 |
| starcraftman | canozan_: you attempting full partition recovery or your just desperate for files? Testdisk is more for recovering an fs, photorec is whats great for files. | 00:34 |
| canozan_ | <starcraftman> i like your nick, i need windows for sc2 :) i want to recover my partitions, at least i want to be able to see them with gparted | 00:35 |
| starcraftman | canozan_: danke, it is a good nick. Alright then, well I will provide you with complete explanation I gave someone else, read it as general advice not exactly for you. | 00:36 |

| zeroseven0183 | Hi! It's 7:55AM now here in the Philippines... April 29 | 00:54 |
| ubuntu_ | hello, i have messed up everything with my partitions, can anyone help me restore my system to the previous stage, of which i have the fdisk output? | 01:15 |
| lobinho | does anyone know how to make a script that will execute a command in another user account? i.e. folks at home resuming my downloads after they finish their tasks, without logging in with my password... | 01:20 |
| Ozan | i need to manually change my partition table beceause i cannot boot into ubuntu and cannot recover grub | 01:21 |
| Ozan | i have all details of my previous partition table | 01:22 |
| Ozan | but i don't know how to force it | 01:22 |
| starcraftman | Ozan: Tried just using testdisk? You can just have it recreate a partition table based on existing if you like. | 01:22 |
| Ozan | <starcraftman> testdisk has just made the thing worse, now i cannot even boot into ubuntu | 01:23 |
| starcraftman | Ozan: really? Sure ya did it right? Not the usual response I get. | 01:24 |
| Ozan | <starcraftman> it has changed my partition table and now i'm unable to boot into ubuntu, and recover grub | 01:24 |
| Ozan | <starcraftman> i used it to analyse my hard disk, it seemed to find all my partitions, but with different names (sd5 instead of sda7 for ex) | 01:25 |
| Ozan | <starcraftman> then i wanted it to write the partition table and now i cannot boot into ubuntu | 01:26 |
| starcraftman | hmmm, so Ozan you want what exactly? You have your table imaged and want to restore? | 01:26 |
| Ozan | i cannot even mount that partition | 01:26 |
| Ozan | <starcraftman> i don't have the image, i have fdisk output, and i want to restore to it | 01:27 |
| starcraftman | hmmm, well short of testdisk I'm not sure what to recommend honestly. Maybe somoene else here has a thought. | 01:30 |
| starcraftman | Ozan: You seen this nice guide with pictures right? http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Step_By_Step | 01:30 |
| Ozan | <starcraftman> yes i have seen it | 01:31 |
| Ozan | <starcraftman> i just followed it, and now i cannot even boot into ubuntu, which was installed in the partiton that i run testdisk | 01:33 |
| starcraftman | Ozan: aye, got ya. Hmmm. Alright, I think I got a solution. | 01:37 |
| starcraftman | BUT, I can't strictly vouch for it. You may want to clone absolutely what is remaining in case further deterioration. | 01:38 |
| starcraftman | Ozan: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Partition/recovering.html | 01:38 |
| starcraftman | long process, one partition at a time. | 01:39 |
| Ozan | thanks a lot | 01:43 |
| Ozan | i think i'll give it a try | 01:44 |
| starcraftman | Ozan: your welcome | 01:44 |
| starcraftman | I'd recommend cloning the drive before starting with partimage or so though. | 01:44 |
| starcraftman | Best of luck. | 01:44 |

| brackenn | hello? | 06:10 |
| kermiac | hi brackenn :) | 06:10 |
| pedro3005 | hi | 06:10 |
| brackenn | Hey! Hi! I got it to work! | 06:10 |
| pedro3005 | great! | 06:11 |
| brackenn | Is this a place I can Get some Advice? | 06:11 |
| pedro3005 | sure is | 06:12 |
| brackenn | Great. I need some help with my printer. I just upgraded to 9.10 from 9.04, and i did a fresh reload of My whole op system. | 06:14 |
| brackenn | I can't get my printer to work. | 06:14 |
| kermiac | what brand printer is it brackenn? | 06:14 |
| brackenn | It is a Canon Pixma IP1800. | 06:15 |
| pedro3005 | brackenn, so wait, you did a clean install? | 06:16 |
| brackenn | Yes. Fron a disk. | 06:16 |
| brackenn | er..From | 06:16 |
| kermiac | brackenn: from a quick search, this *may* help: http://tantos.web.id/blogs/how-to-karmic-koala-and-canon-pixma-ip1800-ip1900 | 06:16 |
| kermiac | I have hp printers though, so I can't help too much | 06:17 |
| brackenn | I've been to that site, But I don't fully understand it. | 06:18 |
| pedro3005 | brackenn, any specific question? | 06:19 |
| kermiac | brackenn: what part of the instructions are you having troubles with? hopefully i can help to explain it better for you :) | 06:20 |
| brackenn | Sure, And thanks in advance. I downloaded, and did the tar -zxvf Canon-Pixma-iP1900-iP1800-KarmicKoala.tar.gz command. | 06:21 |
| brackenn | which all came out on my desktop. | 06:21 |
| brackenn | but I can't do step 3. | 06:22 |
| pedro3005 | if the files are already there, ignore step 3 | 06:22 |
| brackenn | Where would I find that directory? | 06:22 |
| brackenn | okay. | 06:23 |
| brackenn | okay, I just did steps 4 and 5... | 06:24 |
| brackenn | How do I do step 7. where do I find and what is a pPD file? | 06:25 |
| pedro3005 | brackenn, download this file http://www.mediafire.com/?mdmldyztfoh | 06:26 |
| kermiac | brackenn: a PostScript Printer Description (PPD) file basically just tells your O/S what your printer is capable of - fonts, paper size, resolution, etc | 06:31 |
| brackenn | i downloaded it, it's on my desktop, but it keeps giving me an error when i try to move it to to usr\share\ppd | 06:34 |
| pedro3005 | brackenn, let me guess: permission error | 06:35 |
| brackenn | Yah. I just foud that out. | 06:35 |
| pedro3005 | brackenn, ok, so try running this: | 06:36 |
| pedro3005 | sudo mv ~/Desktop/canonip1900for1800.ppd /usr/share/ppd | 06:36 |
| brackenn | that worked...Yea! | 06:37 |
| pedro3005 | :D | 06:37 |
| pedro3005 | now "Then from menu System->Administration->Printing, right click on your printer, choose properties, then change your Make and Model using this new PPD file." | 06:38 |
| brackenn | Still won't work. | 06:43 |
| pedro3005 | what happened? | 06:44 |
| brackenn | Very little. The print que says the jobs are completed, but nothing comes out of the printer. The light doesn't flash. | 06:45 |
| brackenn | Wait... | 06:47 |
| brackenn | Hold on.... | 06:47 |
| brackenn | I think I miss-interp'ed the directions the first time, about assigning the ppd file. I think I got it working. | 06:49 |
| brackenn | Yah. It's working. Many thanks. | 06:52 |
| pedro3005 | brackenn, great :) | 06:53 |

| pedro3005 | with infinite on top | 10:19 |
| zeroseven0183 | Sigma | 10:20 |
| zeroseven0183 | or summation | 10:20 |
| ZeRoDeAtH50435 | it depends on the math that you are using it for | 10:20 |
| pedro3005 | in the example, what is it for? | 10:21 |
| ZeRoDeAtH50435 | got me | 10:24 |
| pedro3005 | I think it's one of these summations | 10:25 |
| pedro3005 | I looked it up, easy enough | 10:25 |
| ZeRoDeAtH50435 | yeah | 10:25 |
| pedro3005 | in the example, you'd start at minus infinite, and go all the way to infinite | 10:25 |
| pedro3005 | substituting n on the formula that follows it | 10:26 |
| pedro3005 | thanks! I needed a name to google it. much appreciated :D | 10:26 |

| * meindian523 is here at 2104 hours on Thurs, Apr 29 and still waiting | 16:35 | |
| Akos | there is no release date | 16:36 |
| meindian523 | *2106 hours IST | 16:36 |
| Akos | i mean hour :P | 16:36 |
| Akos | just date | 16:36 |
| Akos | and the CDs have been re-imaged due to a grub bug, so that's why they seem to be released later | 16:36 |
| meindian523 | Akos, ah, but I thought someone might know..... | 16:37 |
| Akos | it's just 1:36 pm in the us, so they have almost one more day :P | 16:37 |
| meindian523 | was that why they were pushed from 25th to 29th? | 16:37 |
| Akos | i don't think so .. | 16:37 |

| meindian523 | Akos, 1336 on Apr 29th or Apr 28th? | 16:37 |

| meindian523 | starcraftman, I won't be, I'll probably be sleeping like a baby when it does release... | 16:47 |
| starcraftman | meindian523: hehe | 16:47 |
| meindian523 | starcraftman, as an aside, do the repos for dist-upgrade get updated prior to the release or later | 16:47 |
| meindian523 | if earlier I might set the laptop to do checks every half hour or so and dist-upgrade as soon as it becomes available | 16:48 |
| meindian523 | currently running Lucid RC on it | 16:48 |
| starcraftman | meindian523: do you have to get it absolutely second it releases? :) I don't know the time dist updates. | 16:51 |
| meindian523 | starcraftman, nah, but been using Ubuntu for 3 years now and haven't, ever, seen the release as it becomes available | 16:52 |
| meindian523 | want to feel the anticipation at least once | 16:52 |
| starcraftman | meindian523: hehe, alright :) | 16:52 |
| meindian523 | though it isn't too great, been using Lucid since beta 1 | 16:53 |
| meindian523 | so well | 16:53 |

| meindian523 | starcraftman, the desktop version does fine for notebooks too, right? | 18:26 |
| starcraftman | meindian523: the netbook version main feature is alternate interface for smaller screens. | 18:27 |
| starcraftman | if it's > 1280x1024 I'd go with desktop, smaller and it might not be great. | 18:27 |

| meindian523 | etc | 18:29 |
| meindian523 | #ubuntu-release-party has gone crazy | 18:29 |
| starcraftman | meindian523: I'm not a labtop expert, I don't think theres any huge difference between netbook and desktop in terms of power, should use same backend. | 18:30 |
| meindian523 | starcraftman, not netbook, notebook equal to laptop | 18:30 |
| starcraftman | meindian523: regardless, power back end management is same I think. Netbooks just a low power labtop. Netbook is just a gimmick word anyway. | 18:32 |

| simar | hi all | 21:17 |
| maddeth | hi all | 22:30 |
| pedro3005 | hi | 22:33 |
| geirha | A bit disappointing that Ubuntu manual. | 22:50 |
| maddeth | ubuntu manual? | 22:50 |
| geirha | http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 22:50 |
| geirha | Hm. Ok, maybe not that bad. I spotted an error perusing the command line chapter, but that seems to be it. | 22:53 |
| geirha | And it's not written in stone. I can report it at lp :) | 22:59 |
| pedro3005 | Yet another ubuntu manual? | 23:00 |
| geirha | It seems quite comprehensive, and can be bought as a real book made with that white stuff ... what's it called again? | 23:03 |
| geirha | paper | 23:03 |
| maddeth | :) geirha | 23:09 |
| maddeth | I always prefer reading a real book | 23:10 |
| pedro3005 | +1 | 23:10 |
| pedro3005 | but I never seem to have patience to read computer books | 23:10 |
| pedro3005 | don't know why | 23:10 |
| maddeth | when your in work writing/reading documetns, the last thing you want to do is read more crap on the computer at home | 23:10 |
| maddeth | pedro3005, I read a lot of fiction | 23:11 |
| maddeth | but just bought a computer book now | 23:11 |
| pedro3005 | yeah, I got "The C Programming Language" by Ritchie and Kernighan, need to pay more attention to it | 23:12 |
| maddeth | Not much of a programmer myself | 23:12 |
| maddeth | though I want to learn a bit more about machine code | 23:12 |
| pedro3005 | not a programmer either - but I'm trying to be one ;) | 23:13 |
| maddeth | meh, dont want to be a coding monkey | 23:13 |
| maddeth | talking of which, you about tronyx ? | 23:13 |
| maddeth | take that as a no | 23:15 |
| pedro3005 | machine code? you mean 0's and 1's? :P | 23:16 |
| maddeth | AND OR XOR | 23:16 |
| maddeth | Hex ;) | 23:16 |
| maddeth | not binary | 23:16 |
