orangeninja | I installed xubuntu on an older p4 desktop I have and was wonddering how do I get it to see the slave HD? | 01:15 |
---|---|---|
Unit193 | It should just mount it. What FS type? sudo blkid | 01:16 |
orangeninja | I think it was NTFS before.... Does linux even support NTFS? | 01:17 |
Unit193 | And now I'm ticked because my main flash was (barely) dban'd | 01:17 |
Unit193 | orangeninja: NTFS-3g | 01:17 |
orangeninja | So that might be why I dont see it huh? | 01:17 |
Unit193 | What does sudo blkid give you? | 01:18 |
orangeninja | hmmm let me try it, going into computer room now... | 01:18 |
orangeninja | booting it up now | 01:20 |
orangeninja | sda1 ext4 sda5 swap sdb1 type ntfs | 01:22 |
Unit193 | Can you pastebin it? (Or use pastebinit ?) | 01:24 |
orangeninja | yep prob | 01:24 |
* wrst never thought he would find himself bragging on kde... but he does | 01:27 | |
Unit193 | KDE = Kubuntu? | 01:27 |
orangeninja | http://pastebin.com/9iviNTmZ | 01:27 |
wrst | Unit193: yuck no, on arch | 01:28 |
wrst | kubuntu is the absolute worst kde distro out there | 01:28 |
* wrst is in the wrong place to say that probably | 01:28 | |
wrst | Unit193: i'm running kde and gnome 3 and they work well together | 01:28 |
Unit193 | wrst: Just don't go to #kubuntu-offtopic or #kubuntu and say that... | 01:29 |
wrst | Unit193: no... but it really is a sorry implementation, mageia/mandriva is great, arch is great and its totally vanilla but somehow they make it slow and awful | 01:30 |
wrst | in kubuntu | 01:30 |
Unit193 | When was the last time you tried it? (Not that I am a big fan...) | 01:30 |
wrst | 11.04 | 01:30 |
Unit193 | Mka | 01:31 |
wrst | its slow the effects and graphics are just not right on any of my hardware short of my sli desktop | 01:31 |
wrst | i'm not a huge kde fan but 4.6 is very good | 01:31 |
Unit193 | orangeninja: I'm not exactly sure it's not automounting... Can you open gigolo? | 01:31 |
orangeninja | what is gigolo? | 01:32 |
Unit193 | Menu/Rat > System > gigolo | 01:33 |
orangeninja | found it | 01:33 |
orangeninja | it shows up there.... sorry I'm still a newb | 01:34 |
Unit193 | Double click it | 01:34 |
Unit193 | orangeninja: So am I | 01:34 |
orangeninja | yeah I can see the files on it.... I guess I thiought it would show up in the "Places" area | 01:35 |
wrst | Unit193: I was trying to figure out what application Rat was... :) | 01:36 |
wrst | its been a while since I've used xfce | 01:36 |
Unit193 | I like Xubuntu... | 01:36 |
wrst | Unit193: I've just never used it | 01:36 |
Unit193 | And Lubuntu. So I'm not exactly sure what I will put on this one... | 01:36 |
wrst | probably a really good alternate for those who are not unity fans | 01:37 |
wrst | yes lubuntu is excellent | 01:37 |
Unit193 | The current OS on it is DBAN | 01:37 |
Unit193 | :D | 01:37 |
orangeninja | I have only had it for a day but it is pretty clean. | 01:38 |
wrst | orangeninja: I might give it a try again, I love the ubuntu base, but I don't love unity so much :) | 01:46 |
* Unit193 Doesn't like Unity (Can't say for a fact) and wasn't too fond of gnome | 01:46 | |
Unit193 | XFCE and LXDE are just fine though | 01:47 |
wrst | Unit193: I really like gnome and gnome 3/shell but... unity, I don't care for it at all | 01:49 |
Unit193 | wrst: Whatever works for you! I don't have to like what you use :P (To be fair, it's not the worst) | 01:52 |
wrst | ha ha oh yeah Unit193 :) | 01:52 |
wrst | Unit193: I prefer a rather full featured desktop, i'm not much on going the openbox, rat poison etc route | 01:53 |
Unit193 | wrst: I have Xubuntu, Lubuntu, a dualboot of Kubuntu (NEVER used...) and a few VMs (One is built from mini and is openbox) | 01:53 |
wrst | I have tried to like kubuntu but it really stinks | 01:54 |
Unit193 | I'm not going to be using it... But I do like the openbox one... | 01:55 |
wrst | when I open the kickoff menu on kubuntu its all choppy and just really not smoothe, on everything else its smoothe, but its the same way on debian also | 01:55 |
wrst | openbox looks like something I would like to mess with just don't have the time | 01:55 |
Unit193 | Did you see my screenshots? (And I am by far not the best person to make one...) | 01:56 |
wrst | no I haven't... but would love to! | 01:56 |
Unit193 | I only have a few, and I have changed it a little since then... | 01:57 |
Unit193 | http://imgur.com/H67hc - http://imgur.com/0BiKH - http://imgur.com/UzDqc Like I said, not the best... (And I did change some :P ) | 01:59 |
wrst | nice Unit193 | 02:00 |
pace_t_zulu | wrst: i've captured the latest big cat from cupertino | 02:43 |
wrst | ahh pace_t_zulu, that's a mac testing release if I'm not mistaken? | 02:54 |
pace_t_zulu | wrst: pm | 02:55 |
linuxman410 | anyone here | 03:02 |
wrst | nope :P | 03:06 |
wrst | how are you doing linuxman410 | 03:06 |
linuxman410 | wrst nothing much what are you doing | 03:06 |
wrst | nothing getting ready to head to bed in a few | 03:07 |
wrst | linuxman410: I am updating the 11.10 alpha and seeing whats going on | 03:07 |
wrst | oneric is that right? | 03:07 |
Unit193 | wrst: May not look much different | 03:07 |
Unit193 | http://i.imgur.com/iHokj.png | 03:07 |
linuxman410 | wrst i hate to say it but i would not reccomend ubuntu to anyone anymore | 03:08 |
Unit193 | Not even L/X? | 03:08 |
Unit193 | linuxman410: ^^ | 03:08 |
wrst | linuxman410: just because of unity? | 03:08 |
wrst | nice Unit193 thats a nice looking desktop | 03:09 |
linuxman410 | Unit193 what is that screenshot from | 03:09 |
Unit193 | Ubuntu mini.iso ^_^ | 03:09 |
linuxman410 | Unit193 where did you get that | 03:10 |
Unit193 | linuxman410: You didn't hear it from me, but fluxbuntu may very well move to debian | 03:10 |
Unit193 | linuxman410: I added programs/configured everything 'til I liked it | 03:10 |
Unit193 | (And it's not done yet...) | 03:10 |
wrst | linuxman410: your disdain for ubuntu because of unity? | 03:10 |
Unit193 | It's using LightDM too ;) | 03:10 |
linuxman410 | wrst i do not like where ubuntu is headed there are starting to act like windows release a version buy a new computer | 03:11 |
Unit193 | linuxman410: I've seen you in Lubuntu, what's wrong with that one? | 03:12 |
wrst | well I don't know if its that bad but to run gnome or kde you do need more than 256MB of ram | 03:12 |
linuxman410 | Unit193 nothing wrong with lubuntu those guys have their head on straight | 03:13 |
linuxman410 | wrst to run unity you need at least 1 gig of ram | 03:13 |
linuxman410 | then it runs slow | 03:14 |
wrst | linuxman410: i'm sure gnome shell probably needs that | 03:14 |
linuxman410 | wrst that is why i am looking into lighter versions like lxde fluxbox and openbox | 03:15 |
wrst | yeah but I don't think that's really ubuntu's fault its just sorta the way things are going | 03:15 |
wrst | but if you wanta light system go with what Unit193 did the mini.iso or debian or arch or something you kinda build as you go | 03:16 |
linuxman410 | wrst where do you get the mini iso | 03:17 |
wrst | not for sure... better ask Unit193 for that one :) | 03:17 |
Unit193 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 03:17 |
linuxman410 | Unit193 where is the mini iso | 03:17 |
Unit193 | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10950331#post10950331 Also take a look at that | 03:18 |
Unit193 | I could give you my dpkg selections ;) | 03:19 |
Unit193 | Still not the best login: http://i.imgur.com/oAMrR.png | 03:25 |
linuxman410 | Unit193 do i choose second choice on mini iso | 03:29 |
Unit193 | Install from commandline | 03:29 |
linuxman410 | Unit193 use second one that says commandline install | 03:30 |
Unit193 | linuxman410: Yep, that's basically what I just said | 03:32 |
linuxman410 | Unit193 i choose expert commandline install only one that would work | 03:43 |

electricus | here we go: battle of the 'clouds'... http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2011/06/28/microsoft-challenges-google-embraces-cloud-computing/ | 15:29 |
electricus | if M$ version involves ie, they have a loooong way to go .. haha | 15:30 |
electricus | not even thinkable imo | 15:30 |
electricus | but because of the masses and their love of ie.. could this be the re-birth of ie? LOL | 15:31 |
pace_t_zulu | hmmm ... where is wrst | 16:50 |
cyberanger | pace_t_zulu: wrst is hiding behind wrst_ | 17:53 |
pace_t_zulu | cyberanger: that sneaky bastard | 17:55 |
cyberanger | he could be a little sneakier though | 17:55 |
* cyberanger knows he can be a real sneaky bugger | 17:55 | |
cyberanger | pace_t_zulu: seems I'm holding to the free tier, but my usage is equalling linode in cost | 17:57 |
cyberanger | so next year I'll want to migrate back | 17:58 |
cyberanger | (if I can't figure out why the difference in usage) | 17:58 |
vychune | o/ | 18:03 |
=== wrst_ is now known as wrst | ||
pace_t_zulu | cyberanger: something funny happened to my cloud deployment | 22:14 |
cyberanger | pace_t_zulu: really, what | 22:16 |
Unit193 | Alrighty http://www.vincenzolarosa.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Windows-vs-Linux.jpg | 22:16 |
pace_t_zulu | cyberanger: not sure... but you'll probably notice i was offline for a while ... and when i was back on i had the '_' appended | 22:17 |
vychune | o/ | 22:17 |
pace_t_zulu | cyberanger: could have just been the connection between the cloud deployment and the irc server ... on of those netsplits | 22:17 |
cyberanger | pace_t_zulu: ah, only noticed a fairly big netsplit | 22:18 |
pace_t_zulu | cyberanger: i guess quassel core wasn't up to it | 22:18 |
cyberanger | pace_t_zulu: you were'nt the only user, it looks like an irc split, not you splitting off of irc | 22:20 |
pace_t_zulu | cyberanger: i just don't like seeing that i disconnected | 22:38 |
pace_t_zulu | anyone else a google apps user? | 23:14 |
wrst | I have used them pace_t_zulu_ can't say I'm a big-time user | 23:18 |
cyberanger | pace_t_zulu: I have used it | 23:25 |
pace_t_zulu | cyberanger: so i have one of my google apps account setup as a google account as well | 23:28 |
pace_t_zulu | but they failed to account for a critical detail in the migration process... which affects me directly | 23:28 |
cyberanger | that doesn't sound like a fun evening | 23:33 |
