MrAnthropeHow do I virtually mount an .iso file?03:59
Cheri703should be just right click and mount with archive mounter or whatever04:02
Cheri703will confirm04:02
Cheri703"open with archive mounter"04:02
MrAnthropeOh I'm stupid I totally didn't see that.04:02
Cheri703np :)04:02
Cheri703I'm used to having to use virtual clone drive or whatever, I was awestruck when I saw it was built into ubuntu :)04:03
MrAnthropeYeah I'd asked earlier if there was something to do it and I was told it was native. Pretty neat.04:04
MrAnthropeIs there any way I can get this to autorun through wine?04:04
Cheri703hmm...I'm not sure on that one.04:05
MrAnthropeI mean I can open it and see the files and click on the install file to open the install file with wine.04:06
Cheri703I think because it mounts it as a drive, that's not as likely...I'm no authority on it though04:06
MrAnthropelaunch.exe says it doesn't have proper permissions but I can't do what I normally do to .exe files in properties.04:07
MrAnthropeit says permissions could not be determined.04:07
MrAnthropeAlso is there something that will open a .rar file?04:08
aveilleuxMrAnthrope: If you install the unrar package (sudo apt-get install unrar), Archive Manager can open rar files.04:09
MrAnthropeThank you.04:09
Cheri703aveilleux: is that included with ubuntu-restricted-extras by any chance? because I don't think I've ever downloaded that specific package, and I can do rar files04:09
aveilleuxCheri703: It's included, yes, but unrar is an independent package. (ubuntu-restricted-extras is just a "metapackage" -- an empty package with a bunch of dependencies.)04:10
Cheri703well, yes, I meant is it installed when you choose ubuntu-restricted-extras04:11
aveilleuxCheri703: Yes, that is correct.04:11
MrAnthropeHrm. I can't edit permissions on the files within the mounted .iso file. Which i guess makes sense.04:40
MrAnthropeWhen I try to extract the .iso file to my desktop and install it from there it says installation needs the disc.04:40
Cheri703:(04:41
Cheri703I know nothing of this, but perhaps it could get repackaged after the edits?04:41
MrAnthropeThat's a good idea.04:42
=== Cheri703_ is now known as Cheri703
MrAnthropeHrm. I may have to actually burn it.05:04
Cheri703:/05:04
aveilleuxMrAnthrope: You can't edit permissions on a CD. It's a read-only filesystem.05:04
aveilleuxMrAnthrope: What is telling you that it needs permissions?05:05
aveilleuxMrAnthrope: Windows binary executables do not need +x permission to run.05:05
MrAnthropeI'm trying to run a setup.exe file through wine from an .iso05:05
aveilleuxMrAnthrope: Have you tried running "wine start setup.exe" from Terminal? (with the appropriate cd commands, of course)05:06
MrAnthrope... on the file that's on my computer? That's the same thing as clicking the file itself. During installation it tells me I need to put the CD in.05:11
MrAnthropeOh. I'm an idiot.05:15
MrAnthropeI was putting in the cdkey for the game expansion and that's the disk it was asking for.05:16
MrAnthropedisc 0. Who knew.05:16

MrAnthropeI know ^_^07:38
MrAnthropelol um I tried to install a game and now my screen resolution is tiny. Where do you fix screen resolution?08:39
geirhaMrAnthrope: Try Alt+F2 -> xrandr -s 008:41
MrAnthropeYou win :)08:42
geirhaOr system -> preferences -> display or screens or something08:42
MrAnthropeAny idea what this means? bt_audio_service_open: connect() failed: Connection refused (111)08:42

geirhacomment #8 appears to have a possible solution08:45
MrAnthropeThat didn't work but turning the sound off in WINE did. Maybe I can find one of these other sound things to use.08:48
fixer007Hallo today i am trying some new thinks in ubuntu like this chatroom.09:07
geirhafixer007: Hello and welcome. Seems you can tick one item off your list, then. :)09:11
fixer007I understand jou can ask for help or help some others if needed09:13
geirhaIndeed. Not so much activity in here at the moment though.09:14
fixer007to little problems whit ubuntu.09:16
fixer007How did jou insert a smily09:18
geirhacolon followed by a parenthesis09:18
fixer007i already got it :-D09:19

MrAnthropeHm. My screen is now mostly black and very dark blue. Any way to fix this?09:39
MrAnthropeI can barely read chat heh.09:39
MrAnthropeThis is really bad :(09:43
UndiFineDsure09:44
MrAnthropeI think I just need to reset the desktop thing but I can't remember what it's called or what the command to do it is.09:44
MrAnthropexorg?09:45
UndiFineDis it just irc or the whole theme ?09:45
MrAnthropemy whole monitor.09:45
UndiFineDsystem -> preferences -> apperance09:46
MrAnthropeIt was fine while I was playing. I closed the game and it looks like an andy warhol painting.09:46
MrAnthropeI can't really see my GUI.09:46
UndiFineDoh, maybe you just need to logout and back in09:46
geirhaDid you try xrandr -s 0 again?09:46
MrAnthropeYes that did not work.09:46
geirhaSounds like an issue with the graphics card driver then09:51
MrAnthropeit looks like a photonegative.09:51
geirhaLogging out and back in will probably reset it.  Alt+F2 -> metacity --replace   might work too09:51
Geo|AndroidSigning out was an ultra bad idea. Now I have nothing on my monitor.09:54
Geo|AndroidAnd my light is amber.09:54
MrAnthropeI thought I was a goner for a minute :)09:55

Dan0849does anybody have an insight into resolving a installation problems with USB install for Netbook Remix 10.10. The installer keeps aborting on me, but it still creates partition on my netbook hard drive. I have attempted to install twice from the USB thumb drive21:04
Dan0849I'm attempting to install alongside Windows7 on my Acer Netbook21:05
hajourhai Dan084921:13
hajouri shall look ore i can find help for you Dan084921:14
Dan0849thanks!21:15
hajour:)21:15
UndiFineDDan0849, netbook remix is like what is to come for the next version of ubuntu, I have no real experience with it, but I think it was not very stable...21:17
UndiFineDDan0849, you might have to walk the path of installing 10.04 and upgrade to netbook remix21:18
Dan0849actually i was thinking out starting with 10.04 after doing some research21:19
Dan0849but 10.04 is basically "straight" Unbuntu ...correct? ... not specifically for a Netbook?21:20
Dan0849basically Desktop version?21:20
UndiFineDyes21:21
UndiFineDhajour, has ubuntu 10.10 on an eeepc21:21
hajouryes i have21:21
Dan0849hajour, did u install from a USB drive or DVD?21:24
Dan0849...just curious21:24
Dan0849i have recreated the thumb drive twice already.. don't know if want to do that again, at least with 10.1021:25
UndiFineDUSB stick21:25
hajourUndiFineD,  have done it for me Dan084921:25
Dan0849i guess i can give it another shot. problem is that is keeps aborting right during the partitioning. now i have about 6 partitions 2 NTFS and 4 ext4 created by unbuntu21:28
Dan0849have to go clean them up again and start all over.21:28
Dan0849hajour, did u start with 10.4 installed or just begin with 10.1021:29
Dan0849i'm sorry, UndiFineD ... a little confused on who's who here ... ;-)21:30
hajourhee Cheri70321:30
Cheri703hi21:30
hajourwe have officel channel now21:30
hajourand more people21:31
UndiFineDDan0849, create the partiaions manually21:32
Dan0849instead of using the Unbuntu slidebar ... correct?21:32
UndiFineDyes21:32
Dan0849OK.. sounds like a good idea21:33
UndiFineDit is not that difficult21:33
UndiFineD!pratitioning21:33
ubot2Factoid 'pratitioning' not found21:33
UndiFineD!partition21:33
ubot2For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/switching/installing-partitioning.html - For partitioning programs see !GParted, !QtParted (!Kubuntu 8.10 and lower) or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap21:33
Dan0849kuhl ... thanks for the link21:34
UndiFineDhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition21:34
UndiFineDhas nice graphics21:34
Dan0849i've done before manually before with Red Hat and others, just thought the slidebar would be quicker, but looks like it might have some problems21:37
Dan0849i'm assuming that Unbuntu uses Grub?21:38
Dan0849.. for installing alongside another OS... correct?21:38
Dan0849does anyone know how much space the installation takes, not including Swap?21:39
Dan0849well ..thanks for everyone's help.. hope this works21:46

Guest77404Anyone know an irc chan that talks bash scripting?23:28
geirhaYes, #bash23:31
geirhaI recommend you read through http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashGuide for learning bash properly (which includes best practice for bash scripting, unlike any other guide)23:34
aveilleuxGuest77404: I specialize in BASH, as well23:36
