Weldon | Hey guys... I installed ubuntu 10.04 on a windows box a week ago and couldn't figure out why I couldn't access an NTFS volume. I'm thinking now that it's because it is dynamic, composed of a number of disks. Are there any documents pointing out how to make this accessible to my linux installation? Any help greatly appreciated! | 03:20 |
phoenix_ | does pulseaudio use alsa | 03:22 |
EagleScreen | I think yes | 03:26 |
Dragnslcr | Weldon- that probably isn't specific to Kubuntu, so you might try asking in #ubuntu (where there are more people than here) | 03:26 |

Mamarok | noaXess: how about a MySQL database and using Kexi as a frontend? | 08:35 |
=== N|ghtWo|f is now known as Guest69765 | ||
noaXess | Mamarok: hey.. wasup? kexi? any link? | 08:38 |
Mamarok | noaXess: well, Kexi is the default database frontend for KDE, it's in the repos | 08:38 |
noaXess | aha.. ok.. see.. | 08:39 |
Mamarok | but of course you need to build the database yourself | 08:39 |
Mamarok | it can't know beforehand what you need | 08:39 |
Mamarok | my brother runs a spare parts departement in a big garage and they use MySQL | 08:39 |
noaXess | hm. the problem is, that i need a software that has a default inventory of car spare parts ;).. there are solutions for windows.. but.. linux.. i haven't found any.. here is what the customer uses now.. http://www.birner.at/ don't look to strong to the webpage layout.. uaaaa | 08:40 |
frogonwheels | MikieTimT: xrandr | 08:40 |
Mamarok | noaXess: if it is a MySQL database, it can be used in Linux, the database itself is what matters | 08:40 |
Mamarok | aka the "default inventory" is a database | 08:41 |
noaXess | Mamarok: i know.. but i don't know that they won't give the data without costs.. | 08:41 |
Mamarok | so if it is a MSAccess database you of course need to export that to SQL first | 08:41 |
Mamarok | noaXess: so you really expect to get the database for free? Do you only have an idea how much work is behind that? I guess thwy want at least some invenstment back | 08:42 |
Mamarok | such data is never for free | 08:42 |
noaXess | Mamarok: i know.. but much work to get it into any other frontend.. | 08:42 |
Mamarok | noaXess: once you know the database structure, you can nbuild a frontend, frontend are always adaptable | 08:43 |
noaXess | Mamarok: it's not the plan to get the data for free.. but the data need to be compatible.. | 08:43 |
Mamarok | and easy to make, but you need the database structure | 08:43 |
noaXess | yes.. | 08:43 |
noaXess | so.. we will look forward for that.. | 08:43 |
Mamarok | well, if it is SQL it is adaptable | 08:43 |
Mamarok | if it is Access or Oracle you can forget about | 08:44 |
Mamarok | there are exporting tools, but it is usually a lot of work | 08:44 |

ILETS | the cd will guided to you to choose your language ,location and so | 15:11 |
ILETS | when they ask you for partion then you have to becarefull | 15:11 |
joshua__ | very careful! if you created white-space and didn't put a partition in there, then choose that. | 15:12 |
staticvoid | yes | 15:12 |
joshua__ | if you made a linux partition, you should choose that. | 15:13 |
joshua__ | DO NOT CHOOSE "USE ENTIRE DISK"! | 15:13 |
ILETS | you have to move to manual selection so you will choice on which way you want to divided you HD | 15:13 |
staticvoid | hehehehe | 15:13 |
staticvoid | k | 15:13 |
joshua__ | « /win 1 » | 15:14 |
ILETS | you will get new windows that will show you your partion after and before look at it and see what is will happend after your change | 15:15 |

staticvoid | ok | 15:16 |
ILETS | now how much your HD? | 15:16 |
staticvoid | terabyte | 15:16 |
ILETS | how much you would like to make for linux? | 15:17 |
ILETS | calculate that and on your partion high light it then press Eidt | 15:19 |
staticvoid | ummm | 15:19 |
staticvoid | k | 15:19 |
ILETS | let us say you want to make 40 gage for linux | 15:20 |
staticvoid | k | 15:20 |
ILETS | so change your disk size to terabyte minus 40 gagebyte | 15:21 |
ILETS | it will give you two partion now old one and new empty one's | 15:22 |
staticvoid | can i keep this partition though? | 15:22 |
staticvoid | should i just use this ubuntu partition and over write it? | 15:23 |
ILETS | on empty one high light it and make new primary partion | 15:23 |
staticvoid | k | 15:23 |
joshua__ | staticvoid: r u installing this on another pc or are u writing it down? | 15:24 |
staticvoid | hehe i was on the phone | 15:24 |
staticvoid | i'm just reading | 15:24 |
staticvoid | I've seen it done before | 15:25 |

DarthFrog | cenciu: yes, just "partitionmanager". | 16:14 |
cenciu | DarthFrog: tnx | 16:14 |
DarthFrog | cenciu: It's called "Partition Editor" in Applications/System menu. | 16:15 |

cenciu | DarthFrog: yes, i know that,i don't like it... is slow | 16:16 |

cenciu | DarthFrog: how can i resize a partition , (or shrink it) i want to make one other partition (ntfs) ? | 16:21 |
DarthFrog | cenciu: partitionmanager can do that. | 16:22 |
cenciu | DarthFrog: yes, but i canceled the operation when it was like 40 %. now i can't see the partition at all. what can i do? | 16:24 |
lahwran | slow-motion: low | 16:24 |
DarthFrog | cenciu: Don't know, sorry. | 16:24 |
cenciu | DarthFrog: thanks anyway... | 16:24 |
DarthFrog | cenciu: If you haven't already done a backup, right now would be an excellent time to do one. | 16:25 |

Artie_Ephem | Hi all, can anyone tell me how to change an expired password for a user (I essentially locked myself out...duh) - I came up in recovery mode and blanked out the password field in /etc/shadow, but I still can't log in as that user, still says password expired - I'm suspecting there's another security file somewhere that is preventing me from logging in | 17:23 |
muesli | Artie_Ephem: login in recovery mode | 17:25 |
DarthFrog | Artie_Ephem: Reboot into recovery mode. | 17:25 |
muesli | Artie_Ephem: do "passwd username" | 17:26 |
DarthFrog | Like he says. :-) | 17:26 |
Artie_Ephem | ok, I think I tried that last night too, set the passwd for the user then tried to login but got the same message - I'll try again but won't be able to until later this afternoon - but is there any other files you know of that I'm missing? | 17:30 |
akSeya | Artie_Ephem: you can also try a passwd <username> -u | 17:31 |
akSeya | but "sudo passwd <username> <newpassword>" should work fine | 17:32 |
DarthFrog | Artie_Ephem: You could also try using the "chage" command. i.e "change age". | 17:33 |
Artie_Ephem | I also tried to be sneaky and change the date in the bios, but they system wouldn't even come up enough for me to get a command prompt in recovery mode | 17:35 |
Artie_Ephem | ok great, thanks all, I'll try your suggestions this afternoon and let you know how I make out | 17:37 |

v3nd3tta`` | hey guys, i got a problem with my filesystems and partitons. 2 have the same uuid but in gparted they show up with different spaces and other specialities | 18:14 |
v3nd3tta`` | kubuntu 10.04 , no upgrade, but formatted ntfs drives a time ago | 18:14 |
v3nd3tta`` | !gparted | 18:15 |
ubottu | gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 18:15 |
DarthFrog | v3nd3tta``: You can use gparted, whichis a GNOME app. Or partitionmanager, which is the KDE app. | 18:17 |
v3nd3tta`` | yeah i have gparted | 18:17 |
DarthFrog | v3nd3tta``: They're both frontends to the parted program. | 18:17 |
v3nd3tta`` | but /dev/sda9 and /dev sda6 have same uuid | 18:17 |
v3nd3tta`` | how does that happen DarthFrog and how can i be sure which partition is which? | 18:18 |
v3nd3tta`` | http://paste.ubuntu.com/493738/ | 18:18 |
v3nd3tta`` | ^^ sudo blkid of both partitions | 18:19 |
v3nd3tta`` | label: "oldhome" is mounted as "/home" | 18:19 |
DarthFrog | Now that's cute. How did you get them to have the same UUID? :-) | 18:19 |
v3nd3tta`` | idk but i also have a problem with 2 kde profiles of my desktop | 18:20 |
DarthFrog | Can you mount them separately? Do they have different contends? | 18:20 |
DarthFrog | contents | 18:20 |
v3nd3tta`` | uhm i cannot mount the 2nd one label: home | 18:20 |
v3nd3tta`` | it does it automatically, even random | 18:20 |
DarthFrog | I'm not following you. | 18:20 |
v3nd3tta`` | sometimes i have to reboot because 1 profile is older than the other | 18:21 |
v3nd3tta`` | kk it seems like "label: home" (with no mount point) is booting randomy the copied profile | 18:21 |
DarthFrog | OK, gotcha. Well, it's fairly easy to solve. | 18:21 |
v3nd3tta`` | but "label: oldhome" (with MountPoint: /home) has the right profile i think | 18:22 |
DarthFrog | As root, edit the /etc/fstab file and change the filesystem record for /home from "UUID=" to "/dev/sda9" or sda6, if you prefer. | 18:23 |
v3nd3tta`` | if i do sudo mount /dev/sda9 then /home has the contents of the old /home i don't want to have | 18:24 |
v3nd3tta`` | should i format /dev/sda9 ? | 18:24 |
DarthFrog | no | 18:24 |
DarthFrog | Do a backup of its contents first, in case you've made a mistake and have confused which partition is holding which date. | 18:25 |
DarthFrog | data. | 18:25 |
v3nd3tta`` | okay | 18:25 |
DarthFrog | Then format it. | 18:25 |
v3nd3tta`` | so sudo mount /dev/sda9 and copy every data :) | 18:25 |
v3nd3tta`` | oooh looul | 18:26 |
v3nd3tta`` | dolphin says it's the old content | 18:26 |
v3nd3tta`` | i mean | 18:26 |
v3nd3tta`` | the actual content | 18:26 |
v3nd3tta`` | but if i do ls ~ | 18:26 |
v3nd3tta`` | it shows the one i don't want | 18:26 |
DarthFrog | Yeah. "sudo mkdir /save_my_ass". "sudo mount /dev/sda9 /mnt/disk" "rsync -avv --progress /mnt/disk /save_my_ass" | 18:27 |
v3nd3tta`` | how do i copy per console everything? | 18:27 |
v3nd3tta`` | a complete dir? | 18:27 |
DarthFrog | Rsync is your friend. | 18:27 |
v3nd3tta`` | arg | 18:28 |
v3nd3tta`` | mount point /mnt/disk doesnt exist | 18:29 |
rork | or `cp -R dirname` | 18:29 |
DarthFrog | You can use "cp -a <old dir> <new dir>" also but rsync is better. | 18:29 |
DarthFrog | v3nd3tta``: sudo mkdir /mnt/disk | 18:29 |
v3nd3tta`` | omg so much unuseful stuff | 18:31 |
v3nd3tta`` | nepomuk -.- | 18:31 |
v3nd3tta`` | nepomuk database... needed veeery long :O | 18:31 |
v3nd3tta`` | okay | 18:31 |
v3nd3tta`` | .q3a/baseq3/pak0.pk3 :P | 18:31 |
v3nd3tta`` | so now it copied all | 18:49 |
v3nd3tta`` | now should i format /dev/sda9 ? | 18:49 |
v3nd3tta`` | DeathFrog ? | 18:50 |
DarthFrog | Is it currently mounted? | 18:51 |
v3nd3tta`` | yep | 18:51 |
DarthFrog | Then you won't be able to format it. | 18:51 |
v3nd3tta`` | uhm how to unmount per console command? | 18:52 |
DarthFrog | You'll have to unmount it first. | 18:52 |
DarthFrog | umount /dev/sda9 | 18:52 |
DarthFrog | that's not a mispelling, BTW. | 18:52 |
DarthFrog | sudo umount /dev/sda9 | 18:52 |
v3nd3tta`` | umount: cannot umount /dev/sda9 -- /dev/sda6 is mounted over it on the same point. | 18:52 |
v3nd3tta`` | arg i hate that | 18:52 |
v3nd3tta`` | reboot? | 18:52 |
DarthFrog | Right, I expected that. | 18:52 |
DarthFrog | Not yet. Do the /etc/fstab editing I told you to do earlier. | 18:53 |
v3nd3tta`` | but there is no "label" "home" | 18:53 |
v3nd3tta`` | it's not even mounted | 18:54 |
v3nd3tta`` | i can give you my fstab output | 18:54 |
v3nd3tta`` | in paste | 18:54 |
DarthFrog | Make sure that it's /dev/sda6 that is mounted and that /dev/sda9 is not mounted. make sure that /dev/sda6 contains the real /home data that you wish to preserve. | 18:54 |
v3nd3tta`` | should i? | 18:54 |
DarthFrog | OK. | 18:54 |
DarthFrog | I have to leave very soon, BTW. | 18:54 |
v3nd3tta`` | uhm now reboot and then format? | 18:55 |
DarthFrog | If you want and if you're sure that the correct partition is mounted on /home. | 18:55 |
v3nd3tta`` | http://paste.ubuntu.com/493762/ | 18:56 |
v3nd3tta`` | my fstab, nothing of my /sda9 :) | 18:56 |
v3nd3tta`` | kk see ya, if i'm not online in 5 mins i got a livecd-problem :) | 18:56 |
DarthFrog | It's the "UUID=<uuid>" that's the problem. | 18:56 |
DarthFrog | Change it to: | 18:56 |
DarthFrog | /dev/sda6 /home ext4 defaults 0 2 | 18:57 |
