[07:13] * UBuXuBU enters Xubuntu... [07:13] good morning Lords of the Code. === nicofs_ is now known as nicofs [11:22] hello [11:24] im having some trouble. compiz fusion does not start up and neither does emerald window decorator. also google chromium starts up for some reason and it is not in my startup apps [13:50] Best wishes for a very Happy New Year - 2011! [17:20] y0 [17:25] i added a line in fstab for my home partition,i didnt have one before , but this caused it tonot let me login [17:25] i added /dev/sda1 /home ext4 nodev,nosuid 0 2 [17:26] sda1 is empty [17:26] did i have to do something else? [17:26] Is /home a separate partition? [17:27] not now,thats what im trying to do [17:27] If it is not a separate partition, then you can't add it to /etc/fstab yet [17:27] sda1 is a separate partition [17:28] it does not matter if /home has not been created on it [17:28] !fstab [17:28] The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions [17:29] i followed http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome somewhat [17:30] yeah, somewhat doesn't really work, does it? [17:31] somewhat because i already had spare partition empty and because i didnt backup [17:32] but in the guide it says to move stuff to the new partition but i dont recognize which command i=does this [17:32] i= (mistake) [17:33] well, fstab knows the partition is not named /home yet, and will not allow it to be used [17:33] i see [17:34] copy stuff there with livecd and chown it to you [17:34] how do i name it ? [17:35] you use a livecd with gparted to mark it as a /home partition [17:35] i copy the home directory? or only the contents? [17:35] charlie-tca: that's not needed? [17:36] it just need to be mounted to right place and you have to own your home folder to log in [17:36] ooops. [17:36] I am wrong, inti_ [17:36] listen to Sysi [17:37] or you can copy with: cp -a [17:37] it keeps chown [17:38] * charlie-tca seems to have his head on backwards today [17:38] do i need livecd or can i just mount it now and copy stuff [17:46] i think im just gonna set this partition to automount for extra space [17:48] it's kinda better to have diferent partition for *just* data and [17:52] oh well [18:06] thnx [18:18] the fsck option in fstab ... when is 2.. what it means? [18:19] 0 not check, 1 check [18:22] I think 1 is check before mounting and 2 is check anytime, but I am not positive [18:24] inti_: The 1 and 2 are the order of the checks. 1 means check this drive first, and is used for / [18:24] 2 means to check it after the 1 is finished [18:28] more information about those is in man fstab [18:30] ic [18:30] bai [19:03] hello people [19:04] i cant settup audio over hdmi which is on mobo [19:04] anyone? [20:20] Hello. [20:21] I'm thinking about using xubuntu. Before I commit, I need to know a few things. [20:22] Hello? [20:22] Is anyone here? [20:22] try [20:23] First of all if I do get xubuntu, should I use lucid, or maverick? [20:24] lucid is LTS, if you have new hardware you may should try maverick [20:24] if you want to upgrade after 2 years, lucid, if after ½year, maverick [20:24] LTS? [20:24] !lts [20:25] LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) [20:25] The laptop I have is (was) a vista machine. [20:25] I've used lucid puppy on it, it works well. [20:25] hi, my name is Allan. I'm from Brasil. [20:25] Sorry,, my english is very bad.... [20:26] Hello guy from brasil? [20:26] Whoops, I meant ! [20:26] !hi | xubuntu560 [20:26] xubuntu560: Hi!, Welcome to #xubuntu!
