bioterror | hey joe | 01:53 |
---|---|---|
MrChrisDruif | I love all those "testing" things :P | 01:53 |
jmarsden | Maybe someone with appropriate powers could add a link to the Lubuntu Alpha2 ISO to the /topic of this channel? | 01:54 |
JoeMaverickSett | hey bio | 01:55 |
MrChrisDruif | Both the direct link AND the torrent :D | 01:55 |
bioterror | jmarsden, you couple days ago said that i'm playing with fire if I use proposed and you're offering alpha2 which has some installation issues for people ;) | 01:56 |
jmarsden | bioterror: For downloading and testing, not for production use on a workstation -- huge difference :) | 01:56 |
jmarsden | bioterror: The point is that "where is the Alpha2 ISO" is becoming a frequently asked question, so a adding a link seems helpful to me. | 01:57 |
jmarsden | It is more of a news item (Alpha2 was released, here it is) than a recommendation for real world use. | 01:57 |
bioterror | jmarsden, just pip has asked ;) | 01:58 |
jmarsden | Really? Wasn't someone asking on the mailing list, or in -offtopic, or somewhere, recently? | 01:58 |
MrChrisDruif | I've seen two requests if I'm not mistaken | 02:01 |
bioterror | pip and you ;) | 02:02 |
jmarsden | Well, #lubuntu is not an especially active channel... does two requests constitute a FAQ? :) :) | 02:04 |
bioterror | I concider not | 02:04 |
MrChrisDruif | Well....does that change the matter? | 02:04 |
bioterror | and my 2cents is that if someone who is capable of running and using alpha, he is also capable to find it out too | 02:05 |
MrChrisDruif | 2 people = 2 people right? :P | 02:05 |
bioterror | I dont want to make anyone to think "oh here's alpha release, let's go for it!" | 02:05 |
bioterror | and then screen is full of apport and he doesnt know what to do | 02:06 |
MrChrisDruif | If he found it here....he'll know where to go for help right? ;) | 02:06 |
bioterror | possible | 02:13 |
negthorn | good morning | 06:06 |
negthorn | does any of you have moved a linux distro from one partition to another | 06:11 |
negthorn | ? | 06:11 |
bioterror | I rather backup ~/ and do a installation than start playing | 06:21 |
negthorn | I had some malfunctions at first boot ... but now everything is OK | 06:23 |
negthorn | the thing I'm going to do | 06:24 |
negthorn | is to delete my XP as just copy Lubuntu over it | 06:24 |
negthorn | and I want to skip those malfunctions | 06:25 |
negthorn | is there a way to do such a thing | 06:26 |
bioterror | you can boot livecd, run gparted, remove windows partition and resize lubuntu partition | 06:36 |
negthorn | yep, but there are 2 separate phisical drives | 06:37 |
negthorn | here is it (I'll draw now) : | 06:38 |
negthorn | hd0 [ 10G WinXP ntfs][30G apps ntfs][30G files fat32] | 06:39 |
bioterror | fat32 :G | 06:40 |
negthorn | hd1 [38G ext4 Lubuntu][1G swap] | 06:40 |
negthorn | yes | 06:40 |
negthorn | why not ? | 06:41 |
negthorn | fat16 supports only to 8G | 06:41 |
negthorn | 32 has no limit | 06:41 |
negthorn | whatever .... my idea is to delete both ntfs and replace them with "ext"-ed partition + swap | 06:43 |
negthorn | and to try to copy/move the tux at that place | 06:44 |
bioterror | you can start from 4GB filesize limit, nothing even close to journaling, and was that | 06:45 |
bioterror | just a moment | 06:45 |
bioterror | fat32 has a bigger file allocation units than fo example ntfs | 06:46 |
bioterror | negthorn, why not just make a new installation over XP, mount your old linux installation, move stuff from old ~/ to new ~/ | 06:47 |
negthorn | Oh! sHELL ... | 06:48 |
negthorn | true ! ... | 06:48 |
bioterror | you're welcome | 06:49 |
negthorn | Now I'm realizing that all apps | 06:49 |
bioterror | partition limit for FAT32 is 137GB | 06:50 |
negthorn | are commonly installed in ~ | 06:50 |
bioterror | software is installed in /usr/bin or /usr/sbin usually in linux | 06:50 |
negthorn | ha! I didn't know it | 06:50 |
negthorn | and ....that is I want to keep | 06:51 |
negthorn | may I 'cp' them too ? | 06:51 |
bioterror | and how are you going to update them | 06:52 |
bioterror | and all the libraries they require | 06:52 |
negthorn | IDK .. | 06:52 |
negthorn | mmmhm ... | 06:52 |
bioterror | why not just apt-get install <what ever is needed> | 06:52 |
bioterror | takes like 20mins | 06:53 |
bioterror | and since you dont have exact same size disks, you cant dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sda | 06:53 |
negthorn | you're right, but I like experimets (exept the case I'm here) | 06:54 |
negthorn | aha ... | 06:54 |
negthorn | it means - "don't try this at home (/home) " | 06:55 |
bioterror | if I were you, I would buy a bigger disk than 70GB | 06:56 |
bioterror | and use it | 06:56 |
negthorn | this machine is 7 y.o. the only up I've made is to put this 70G HDD and 256MB RAM (total 512) | 06:58 |
bioterror | okay | 06:59 |
bioterror | trash that XP, make some more space in other drive so that you can get rid of FAT32 | 06:59 |
negthorn | 'cause there are all my files | 07:00 |
negthorn | (personaly created) | 07:00 |
negthorn | for anything else - I don't care | 07:00 |
negthorn | and 'cause Iknow that fat is visible form all normal distros - I made this space "fat" | 07:02 |
bioterror | seems like you havent heard of NTFS-3G | 07:02 |
bioterror | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS-3G | 07:02 |
negthorn | hah! thanks for the info but I've never before used Linux seriously ... mean - installsome. try it, then remove ... and when I decide - Install something else ... | 07:05 |
negthorn | I was looking for "my" distro .. | 07:09 |
negthorn | there is nothing more beautyful than to Install XP | 07:11 |
negthorn | twice a week | 07:11 |
negthorn | in a period of a half year | 07:12 |
negthorn | whatever ... I'll not experiment with copying ... | 07:14 |
negthorn | thanks for everything | 07:14 |
negthorn | must go | 07:14 |

leszek | nice | 16:27 |
bioterror | what a shame that the default installation is far from complete :( | 16:35 |
esing | hi | 16:46 |
esing | apache2 installed here but when running localhost it says no permisson to access /index.php | 16:46 |
esing | i deleted the index.html which was in there before tho | 16:46 |
esing | i tried to set chmod for the whole www folder to 755 and 777 but neither works | 16:47 |
kosaidpo-| | esing: make sure its owned by root or www-data im not sure if not ucan install lampp via tasksel | 16:48 |
bioterror | public_html and root www are 755 | 16:50 |
esing | ????????????????????ß | 16:55 |
esing | what do you mean "owned by root" or owned by www-data? | 16:55 |
bioterror | www-data | 16:55 |
wolfpack | kosaidpo-|: Did you had a fresh installtion of lubuntu and then tried to upgrade its packages ? | 16:56 |
kosaidpo-| | wolfpack: yesh | 16:56 |
esing | well i put www to 755 | 16:56 |
esing | then even to 777 | 16:56 |
esing | but nothing happens | 16:56 |
wolfpack | kosaidpo-|: Then I think during installtion you have specified incorrect boot point. | 16:57 |
kosaidpo-| | yeh i guess so cus i have an extended partion in it two partition and now im wondein how ican fix it | 16:57 |
wolfpack | kosaidpo-|: Well I did the same thing by mounting boot point at my other linux distro partition. I had to reinstall the lubuntu :( | 16:59 |
wolfpack | kosaidpo-|: Do you have any important data on lubuntu ? | 17:00 |
kosaidpo-| | :P thats the hard part and tnx tho | 17:00 |
phillw | esing: I do tire of this... read and use http://forum.phillw.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=119 I held a classroom a while back, the information on the internet that you will have used is just wrong. | 17:06 |
phillw | It really does annoy me that people have incorrect instructions up on sites. | 17:07 |
esing | mhm | 17:09 |
esing | I even tried to add the www directory to apach2.conf but it still doesnt work | 17:09 |
esing | imho a program should work after installation without configuration ^^ | 17:09 |
phillw | esing: if you use tasksel, it will 'work out of the box', that is what tasksel is there for. | 17:11 |
esing | gosh | 17:31 |
esing | taskel doesnt exist on my os | 17:31 |
esing | "taskel command not found" | 17:34 |
esing | phillw !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 17:35 |
JoeMaverickSett | esing: it's "tasksel" | 17:35 |
esing | yes | 17:36 |
esing | it doesnt work | 17:36 |
esing | in terminal i wrote it correct wise | 17:36 |
phillw | esing: sudo tasksel | 17:36 |
esing | yes | 17:36 |
esing | i did tihs | 17:36 |
esing | phillw you use ubuntu 9.1 and not lubuntu? | 17:36 |
phillw | esing: those notes were made via lubuntu! | 17:37 |
esing | well then this is weird | 17:38 |
esing | maybe this is a big bug in here | 17:38 |
phillw | I've been asked to make a new new set for ubuntu standard version. | 17:38 |
phillw | -new | 17:38 |
