| n8wulf | Good Morning all | 06:00 |
|---|---|---|
| n8wulf | :-D | 06:00 |
| n8wulf | Lovelly sunshine day in Vanderbijlpark | 06:00 |
| nlsthzn | n8wulf: Cool... nice sunshine day in the desert too... 9 in the morning and 34 degC outside... | 06:13 |
| wolfeyes | Morning guys | 07:28 |
| sakhi_ | morning | 07:33 |
| wolfeyes | heya sakhi_ | 07:41 |
| wolfeyes | How you doing today? | 07:41 |
| wolfeyes | Kilos says morning as well, he is just installing kubuntu on another drive. | 07:41 |
| nlsthzn | wolfeyes: Cool... say hi from me to uncle Kilos :) | 07:43 |
| wolfeyes | Hi nlsthzn | 07:44 |
| wolfeyes | His pc won't run unity, it doesn't have the hardware. | 07:44 |
| nlsthzn | sucks... there is a 2-d version that can be used btw... | 07:44 |
| wolfeyes | I am just looking for some kind if program to try improve the working of software to hardware on mine. | 07:45 |
| wolfeyes | It gave him the option to run Classic Ubuntu. | 07:45 |
| nlsthzn | wolfeyes: at the moment the 2d has to be installed seperatly... it will become default fall-back for 11.10 | 07:47 |
| wolfeyes | Ok ty. | 07:48 |
| wolfeyes | I told him, answer "Oh" lol. | 07:48 |
| nlsthzn | wolfeyes: hehe... but Kubuntu is also pretty solid... however I suspect he won't get the most eye-candy going as KDE is more resource hungry than Gnome (with exception of Unity now obviously) | 07:50 |
| === sdehaan_ is now known as sdehaan | ||
| wolfeyes | Are you using KDE nlsthzn ? | 07:53 |
| nlsthzn | wolfeyes: I was until a day or two ago... I am a chronic distro hopper :/ Back on Unity at the moment... but Kubuntu is pretty solid in 11.04 | 07:54 |
| wolfeyes | i see | 07:55 |
| nlsthzn | wolfeyes: it is a curse... my primary use of my laptop if installing linux :p | 08:03 |
| wolfeyes | Lol. | 08:04 |
| wolfeyes | Geesh, I just went into my ubuntu forums account, I am 3 days away from going in there a year ago. | 08:14 |
| wolfeyes | nlsthzn, kilos is installing xubuntu now. | 08:14 |
| nlsthzn | wolfeyes: :) closest thing to gnome 2.x | 08:14 |
| wolfeyes | Can't believe that was how long ago I had my computer last. | 08:15 |
| nlsthzn | wolfeyes: now that I think about it, I am sure I have seen you over on ubuntu forums :) | 08:15 |
| wolfeyes | :-P | 08:15 |
| wolfeyes | yeah, just looking for info before I ask the guys for help, will got to launchpad next. | 08:16 |
| wolfeyes | 4th time lucky with my pw as well, nearly forgot that. | 08:16 |
| nlsthzn | wolfeyes: here are some screenshots of all my hopping :p http://www.flickr.com/photos/59930315@N03/sets/72157626124571449/ | 08:21 |
| nlsthzn | can't log in to update with my latest at the moment :/ | 08:21 |
| wolfeyes | nlsthzn, what would the right terminolgy be for trying to find out what is slowing the system down when there is a clash between software and hardware, Debugging maybe...? | 08:21 |
| * wolfeyes goes to look. | 08:21 | |
| nlsthzn | wolfeyes: sounds more like you should call it a "configuration problem" or "possible driver issue" ... not sure, guess it depends on what the actual problem is :p | 08:23 |
| wolfeyes | That looks pretty awesome. | 08:23 |
| * wolfeyes nodz. | 08:23 | |
| * wolfeyes searches further. | 08:24 | |
| nlsthzn | All of the screenshots are from my laptop... core 2 with intel gfx... nothing over powerful | 08:24 |
| wolfeyes | Looks awesome. | 08:28 |
| nlsthzn | wolfeyes: thanks :) | 08:28 |
| nlsthzn | latest http://www.flickr.com/photos/59930315@N03/5735757517/in/photostream :) | 08:29 |
| * wolfeyes goes to look. | 08:33 | |
| nlsthzn | :/ ah crap, "untity --replace" not getting me out of trouble this time... seems I am going to do that windows thing real quick... brb | 08:34 |
| Kilos | hiya superfly and everyone else | 10:21 |
| superfly | hi Kilos | 10:22 |
| Squirm | hello | 10:48 |
| panphried | hi all | 15:12 |
| wolfeyes | Heya panphried | 15:31 |
| panphried | howsit | 15:32 |
| wolfeyes | Anyone know how to burn a iso to usb stick? | 15:32 |
| panphried | yes. theres a tool that ubuntu includes by default | 15:33 |
| wolfeyes | Found a program to mount it but I am not sure if this is or means the same thing! | 15:33 |
| wolfeyes | Read a lot about putting a boot sector in there as well, but geesh battling to do that. | 15:34 |
| panphried | might not be by default anymore. 1 sec | 15:35 |
| panphried | startup disk creator -- in system-admin-.. | 15:35 |
| panphried | still there by default | 15:36 |
| wolfeyes | I got a iso retreived to desktop, the startup disk creator doesn't even see it on desktop panphried . | 15:37 |
| panphried | wolfeyes: the iso file is saved on desktop? | 15:38 |
| wolfeyes | I extracted it to desktop if I am not mistaken. | 15:39 |
| wolfeyes | Still trying to get all this terminology right. | 15:39 |
| panphried | wolfeyes: dont extract the iso .. just copy it there. or point StartupDiskCreator to the location that houses the actual ISO | 15:40 |
| wolfeyes | Ok let me try that. | 15:41 |
| panphried | k | 15:41 |
| wolfeyes | Extraction file nowhere to be seen again, just downloading it again. | 15:44 |
| wolfeyes | Ok grrr got it in the tmp file. | 15:47 |
| panphried | wolfeyes: you want to point startupdiskcreator to the iso file | 15:47 |
| wolfeyes | Back to my original problem. | 15:49 |
| wolfeyes | I got to the tmp folder or dir (not sure which one) and it only see's the other dir, no files or compressed files! | 15:51 |
| panphried | wolfeyes: verify that the iso is actuallly there first | 15:51 |
| wolfeyes | I can see it in the folder view | 15:52 |
| panphried | the file with extension .iso | 15:52 |
| wolfeyes | I have just extracted it too. | 15:52 |
| wolfeyes | Ok now I sit in the same possition as I did earlier. | 15:53 |
| panphried | one sec, let me see if theres an issue with usb-creator - | 15:53 |
| panphried | wolfeyes: what version of ubuntu u using? | 15:53 |
| wolfeyes | Now I can see the .iso file and in the "MSD" under cd images it see's the iso image but when I click on it , it won't see it in the program. | 15:54 |
| wolfeyes | 10.10 Maverick. | 15:54 |
| panphried | and what iso are you trying to urn? | 15:55 |
| panphried | burn | 15:55 |
| wolfeyes | If I make it into disk images it doesn't see the iso image. | 15:55 |
| wolfeyes | Stresslinux-0.3.1.iso | 15:56 |
| wolfeyes | Program for testing hardware etc on the computer. | 15:56 |
| wolfeyes | Unless you got anything better for me, I been hunting all day. | 15:56 |
| panphried | no, StressLinux should be fine .. do you have your usb drive plugged in | 15:58 |
| wolfeyes | I tried looking for linux bios drivers for my Gigabyte mb and found nothing 2 years ago and now upon looking they have advanced the software but nothing for ubuntu. | 15:58 |
| wolfeyes | yes | 15:58 |
| panphried | wolfeyes: try installing UNetbootin - and using it instead of StartupDiskCreator | 16:06 |
| panphried | its in the software center | 16:07 |
| * wolfeyes goes to look, I tried that from the site to no success, but let me try the centre. | 16:07 | |
| wolfeyes | Ok got it installed and open. | 16:11 |
| wolfeyes | Ok I have left the top half and worked on the bottom half of UNetbootin, got the iso with the path, then at the bottom usb drive , should I press ok ? :-0 | 16:15 |
| wolfeyes | Ok first let me get this straight, this will create a bootable sector in the usb with the image I inserted? | 16:16 |
| panphried | wolfeyes: select Diskimage | 16:16 |
| wolfeyes | ok | 16:16 |
| panphried | then select path to iso there | 16:16 |
| panphried | then select drive | 16:16 |
| wolfeyes | Done that | 16:16 |
| panphried | then u should be good to go | 16:17 |
| panphried | press ok | 16:17 |
| wolfeyes | Cool | 16:17 |
| * wolfeyes counts down... | 16:17 | |
| wolfeyes | Grrrrrrr | 16:17 |
| panphried | bad news? | 16:18 |
| wolfeyes | Now I have to reformat the usb in FAT32. | 16:18 |
| panphried | lol. k | 16:18 |
| wolfeyes | Be with you in a sec... | 16:22 |
| panphried | i've got to run to a meeting. will be back in 30mins or so | 16:22 |
| wolfeyes | Ok cool no problem and thank you. | 16:23 |
