zerothisyes, I'm a curator for a museum03:00
zerothisbut I'd like to show a working game in the exibit, not just a source archive03:01
well_laid_lawnwith the makefile being html I have no idea how you would build it03:02
zerothiswell, is there a larn with a traditional makefile?03:03
well_laid_lawnjust been web searching and there are larn like games on sourceforge but nothing much else about it03:07
well_laid_lawnzerothis:  found this - http://ftp.vim.org/os/OpenBSD/cvs/src/games/larn/03:09

aladoinsanowhen i run gparted it claims it can not detect the file system on my swap partition, is this because it might be encrypted? (i chose to encrypt my home folder at install)17:39
TheSheepaladoinsano: swap doesn't have a filesystem17:40
aladoinsanook, so all is fine then? i just wanted to make sure before i activate hibernation, which i guess writes to the swap partition, right?17:41
TheSheepto check if your swap is working use 'swapon -s' command17:43
aladoinsanoTheSheep, nope it was not, when i ran swapon -a it says it can not find the device17:45
aladoinsanoweird, can i just format the partition as swap and then mount it in fstab? or do i somehow have to tell the system that that is the swap after that?17:46
TheSheepyou can mkswap, add it to fstab and do swapon -a17:50
aladoinsanoTheSheep, ok will try that, how can i find the uuid of a partition?17:51
TheSheep!uuid17:51
ubottuTo see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)17:51
aladoinsanoin fstab there is a entry for a swap "/dev/mapper/cryptswap1" this is the one that will not mount and the one i then will replace, but doesnt "cryptswap" suggest that its supposed to be encrypted?17:53
Sysi/dev/mapper suggest there is RAID17:54
aladoinsanook, even more weird, i dont use raid17:55
Sysilvm?17:55
aladoinsanonope17:56
Sysiwell, i've seen that only with mdadm or lvm17:56
aladoinsanonot that i know, im pretty sure i did not select that at install17:56
aladoinsanook, i'll remove it and will try to reformat the partition and then try to mount the new one, i just hope i wont brake something17:57
TheSheepSysi: /sev/mapper is also used when encrypting partitions...17:58
TheSheepdev/mapper17:58
Sysioh that17:58
Sysias said, never seen it, sorry17:58

charlie-tcathe only one I know of it affecting is the NOA20:26
mark76I wonder whose satellite it is20:28
aladoinsanodoes anybody know how i can get the hibernation button to appear at the log-out box, i just installed a new version of xubuntu and its not there, im sure i had it in earlier versions20:43
TheSheepaladoinsano: yes20:44
TheSheepaladoinsano: go to settings->settings editor20:44
aladoinsanoi have been checking each settings menu and i can not find anything connected to it, apart from under power management, but then only as an action if is close the lid etc.20:44
TheSheepaladoinsano: then in xfce4-session -> shutdown -> ShowHibernate20:45
aladoinsanoTheSheep, will have a look, thanks for the help with the swap partition by the way, i managed to fix that20:45
TheSheepcool20:45
aladoinsanoand the button is back! thanks again!20:47
aladoinsanoTheSheep, well it seems like the battle is still not won, the hibernation didnt really work, it shut off alright and it seemed to hibernate, but when i re-started i came into the default desktop again..20:52
aladoinsanoat least the button is there, the hunt goes on..20:53
TheSheepaladoinsano: can't really help you there, sorry20:55
