| Liquidsnakex | hey holstein ! | 00:31 |
|---|---|---|
| Liquidsnakex | i am in a problem please help me man ! | 00:31 |
| Liquidsnakex | hey philipballew | 00:31 |
| philipballew | whats your problem Liquidsnakex | 00:33 |
| Liquidsnakex | i want to put ubuntu 11.04 with win xp, and have them both functional and bootable, | 00:33 |
| Liquidsnakex | i don't understand what is mount point and boot loader installation | 00:33 |
| philipballew | are you using the graphical install? | 00:34 |
| Liquidsnakex | i am installing from the cd | 00:34 |
| Liquidsnakex | and i freed 10 giga 9 for the ubuntu and 1 for the swap area is this correct ? | 00:35 |
| philipballew | the installer should do that all for you. just choose the duel boot option and select how much you want for each system | 00:35 |
| Liquidsnakex | well there is a problem, the ubuntu installer takes from drive D: which is almost full and i use it and don't want it to get smaller | 00:36 |
| Liquidsnakex | so i cut 10 giga from C: because it's empty & i want to put ubuntu 11.04 on that empty new partition | 00:36 |
| philipballew | then install it on there. http://blog.sudobits.com/2011/04/23/how-to-install-ubuntu-11-04-from-usb-or-cd/ | 00:37 |
| Liquidsnakex | yes but what should i do choose for the Mount point and the boot loader installation ? | 00:37 |
| philipballew | it shiuld do that automaticly. if in doubt chose the ubuntu partition | 00:38 |
| Liquidsnakex | well i am sorry but it doesn't seem to do that auto. | 00:39 |
| philipballew | are you using the regular installer? | 00:40 |
| * philipballew has never duel booted | 00:40 | |
| Liquidsnakex | ouch ... | 00:41 |
| philipballew | what? | 00:41 |
| Liquidsnakex | yea i am using the normal installation method , putting cd iso, choose install ubuntu, then i get stuck at that point which i want to install ubuntu on a specific partition i freed it | 00:41 |
| urlin2u | could I suggest a screen shot of gparted looking at the HD ;) | 00:41 |
| Liquidsnakex | urlin2u what's the gparted ? sorry not good with abbreviations | 00:42 |
| * nlsthzn_work can see a photo of a screen being uploaded shortly... | 00:42 | |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, gparted is a partitioner on the live ubuntu cd. | 00:43 |
| philipballew | g stands for gnome | 00:43 |
| Liquidsnakex | thanks folks | 00:43 |
| Liquidsnakex | well i will do it right away how to send it to you to check it ? | 00:43 |
| philipballew | someone will see it yes | 00:44 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, image bin attach it then post the http address http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add | 00:44 |
| Liquidsnakex | well wait a urlin2u please, i cannot go to the installation process and capture a screenshot at the same time | 00:45 |
| philipballew | gparted is not part of the install | 00:46 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, my suggestion is to it first to make sure what your doing is correct. | 00:46 |
| Liquidsnakex | i am just confused about the Moint Point and boot loader installation i need to understand them so i can install ubuntu 11.04 without any problems | 00:46 |
| urlin2u | excellent advice here but some stuff is not known for example how many partitions now as in primaries | 00:47 |
| philipballew | i gtg. off to davis lug meeting | 00:47 |
| Liquidsnakex | i am searching for about 3 hours for them and there is not sufficiant data or info about them | 00:47 |
| Liquidsnakex | i see | 00:47 |
| Liquidsnakex | i had 2 partitons C & D . on C windows xp, i created a new partition E 10 giga, logical one i guess | 00:48 |
| philipballew | open gparted | 00:48 |
| philipballew | take screenshot | 00:48 |
| philipballew | :) | 00:48 |
| Liquidsnakex | processing | 00:53 |
| Liquidsnakex | http://imagebin.org/168011 | 00:54 |
| Liquidsnakex | thanks philipballew | 00:54 |
| Liquidsnakex | where is holstein and nlsthzn_work | 00:54 |
| * nlsthzn_work lurks in the shadows | 00:55 | |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, the 10 gig partion is a ntfs is that where you wanted the Ubuntu? | 00:56 |
| Liquidsnakex | yes urlin2u | 00:57 |
| Liquidsnakex | i will of course format it to ext4 for ubuntu 11.04 | 00:57 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, so ubuntu would be a ext4 how much ram do you have? | 00:58 |
| urlin2u | cool you know the ext type | 00:58 |
| Liquidsnakex | 1 GB | 00:58 |
| Liquidsnakex | yea urlin2u i have been doing some reading so i don't waste time here | 00:58 |
| urlin2u | cool so with gparted, make a 9 gig ext4 and a swap after it, from the live cd. | 00:58 |
| Liquidsnakex | i am just stuck at those points of : Mouting point and boot loader installation what does it mean it's confusing me that's all | 00:59 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, no problem I can help you there, we wil build the partitions then custom instal and go through that. ;-) | 00:59 |
| urlin2u | urlin2u, you have to be on the live cd though with no keys showing which means mounted | 01:00 |
| Liquidsnakex | thanks urlin2u | 01:00 |
| urlin2u | no probem both the other helpers are awesome, but not here at the moment | 01:01 |
| Liquidsnakex | ouch | 01:01 |
| Liquidsnakex | well if you could just explain to me what does those mean the mount point and boot loader installatio | 01:01 |
| * nlsthzn_work has faith in urlin2u ability to get this done... | 01:01 | |
| Liquidsnakex | i just want to make the laptop able to dual boot both xp and ubuntu 11.04 | 01:02 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, thats easy, the grub bootoader wil pick up XP. | 01:02 |
| Liquidsnakex | so shall i leave it as xp because it's not the "default" by the way | 01:02 |
| Nubi1Kenobi | ned to make fslint see my NAS drive.....not sure how | 01:03 |
| Nubi1Kenobi | need | 01:03 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, we wont touch XP just install ubuntu and it's bootloader will show XP for booting. | 01:03 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, so you under stand that we need to unmount all the partitions to change them using the live cd booted. | 01:04 |
| urlin2u | the 10 gig to a 9 gig ext4 | 01:04 |
| Liquidsnakex | i see | 01:05 |
| Liquidsnakex | convert the 10 to ext4 you mean ? | 01:05 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, are you on the live cd you must be. | 01:05 |
| Liquidsnakex | i dont want to touch the other 2 partitions | 01:05 |
| Liquidsnakex | yes | 01:05 |
| Liquidsnakex | im using it now | 01:05 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, we wont I do this on my setup all the time I run W7. | 01:05 |
| urlin2u | and natty and others | 01:06 |
| Liquidsnakex | i see | 01:06 |
| Liquidsnakex | thanks alot man | 01:06 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, open the disk utility and unmount the extended sda2 and sda5 | 01:07 |
| Liquidsnakex | yea i am trying to look for the unmount option | 01:10 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, are you in disk manager, just click the sda2, maybe the sda HD first to show it then sda2 the unmount then sda5 unmount. | 01:11 |
| Liquidsnakex | yea it just shows unmount for the sda5 | 01:12 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, you will have to unmount sda2 first | 01:12 |
| urlin2u | it is the extended look close | 01:12 |
| Liquidsnakex | well there is not button for it urlin2u | 01:13 |
| Liquidsnakex | yea i know i can screenshot it for you to check urself | 01:13 |
| Liquidsnakex | http://imagebin.org/168014 | 01:14 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, it will be above sda5 and sda6 they are inside of it in the partition picture window. you can open gparted again to see if the key is next to it=sdfa2. | 01:14 |
| urlin2u | sda2 | 01:15 |
| Liquidsnakex | yes i can see it clearly urlin2u , thats not the point | 01:15 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, I understand, open gparted and look if there is a key on the sda2 line | 01:16 |
| Liquidsnakex | i cannot find unamount for the extended sda2 itself | 01:16 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, no problem we can just reboot and open nothing but gparted to be set. | 01:16 |
| urlin2u | that is easiest. ;) | 01:17 |
| Liquidsnakex | yea urlin2u there is one logical partition busy, that's why i cannot find unamount | 01:17 |
| Liquidsnakex | so shall i unamount that busy logical partition so the whol extended partition is not busy anymore ? | 01:18 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, no problem just reboot the live cd and then open gparted and look for the keys not being on the sda2 and sda5 and sda6 lines | 01:18 |
| Liquidsnakex | well rebooting takes a long time it's an old machine no other way :( ? | 01:19 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, not sure why it ios busy are you using any of those partitions? | 01:19 |
| Liquidsnakex | well now the moment i am talking to you i am using the live cd feature | 01:19 |
| Liquidsnakex | there must be a mistake i did ,right ? | 01:20 |
| urlin2u | are you using any of those partition say like playing music in sda5 | 01:20 |
| Liquidsnakex | no nothing at all | 01:20 |
| Liquidsnakex | just this web browser ffirefox | 01:20 |
| Liquidsnakex | just this broswer gparted and disk utility | 01:20 |
| urlin2u | Liquidsnakex, I only feel comfortable with a reboot that extended should not be busy, try closing everything nothing shoud be running, except gparted for confirmation and disk utility for unmounting | 01:22 |
| Liquidsnakex | well sure urlin2u let me try it | 01:22 |
| Liquidsnakex | thanks alot | 01:22 |
| urlin2u | cose gparted turn off ff and open disk utiity | 01:22 |
| urlin2u | close | 01:22 |
| urlin2u | cose ecert=ything tehn open disk utility | 01:23 |
| Liquidsnakex | and close firefox too ? | 01:23 |
| urlin2u | close everything is what I meant sorry | 01:23 |
| urlin2u | yes | 01:23 |
| Liquidsnakex | alright no problems urlin2u going to try | 01:23 |

| urlin2u | now | 01:24 |
| Nubi1Kenobi | CrOnOs2000, you around? | 01:26 |
| urlin2u | Nubi1Kenobi, have you tried the question in #ubuntu | 01:27 |
| Nubi1Kenobi | yeah | 01:27 |
| Nubi1Kenobi | same result | 01:27 |
| Nubi1Kenobi | nothing | 01:27 |
| nlsthzn_work | Well... if GParted found a disc mounted that it wants to modify it would warn you and ask if you would like to unmount it... | 01:27 |
| urlin2u | Nubi1Kenobi, takes a while sometimes if I new I woud help ;-) | 01:27 |
| CrOnOs2000 | Nubi1Kenobi, im here i was just setup my google+ count | 01:27 |

| CrOnOs2000 | sorry never tryed before | 01:29 |
| razorandnotso | Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me. I'm learning about ssh, but I'm having some problems. I'm running ubuntu 11.04 on a desktop and centos in virtualbox, and i'm trying to ssh into my mac that's on the same network | 01:30 |
| razorandnotso | centos is connected to the network, i've checked my router devices | 01:30 |
| liquidsnakex | urlin2u | 01:31 |
| razorandnotso | both oses get the same problem: they hang at connecting to the mac | 01:31 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, were you using chatzilla | 01:31 |
| liquidsnakex | i don't know but suddenly exclamation marks appeared beside sda1 | 01:31 |
| liquidsnakex | no | 01:31 |
| liquidsnakex | this firefox web browser | 01:32 |
| urlin2u | in gparted? | 01:32 |
| liquidsnakex | yea | 01:32 |
| urlin2u | screen shot it | 01:32 |
| liquidsnakex | beside the windows partition a key and exclamation mark appeared | 01:32 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, you may need a chkdsk. | 01:33 |
| liquidsnakex | da** .... | 01:33 |
| liquidsnakex | but the disk utility says disk is healthy | 01:34 |
| liquidsnakex | http://imagebin.org/168022 | 01:34 |
| nlsthzn_work | liquidsnakex: I wouldn't worry to much about that partition... you won't be touching it for this... | 01:35 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, so hard to say I'm assuming here, there is a right claick on partition in gparted then information do this with sda1, and see what it says | 01:35 |
| liquidsnakex | unable to find mount point unable to read the contents of this file system ! | 01:36 |
| liquidsnakex | because some of these operations may be unavailable | 01:36 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, can you shutdown gparted open just the disk utiity and unmount sda1? | 01:36 |
| liquidsnakex | hey nltshzn_work | 01:37 |
| liquidsnakex | done urlin2u | 01:37 |
| liquidsnakex | then | 01:37 |
| liquidsnakex | ? | 01:37 |
| nlsthzn_work | urlin2u: AFAIK as soon as you use gparted to make changes and it first needs to unmount a partition it will prompt you... in this case I don't think it will... | 01:37 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, now delete the sda6 make a 9 gig ext4 then a 1 ggig swap next to it with gparted after closing the disk manager | 01:38 |
| urlin2u | nlsthzn_work, if I need your hep I wil ask commenting does not make this any easier bro. | 01:38 |
| nlsthzn_work | urlin2u: fair enough... lurk mode: ACTIVATED... | 01:39 |
| liquidsnakex | people please don't fight or argue | 01:39 |
| urlin2u | nlsthzn_work, no problem but I'm a experienced user. | 01:39 |
| liquidsnakex | i just need your great experience and your assistance in this that's all | 01:40 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, no fighting just communicating. ;-) | 01:40 |
| liquidsnakex | done urlin2u | 01:41 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, give me another screenie. | 01:41 |
| liquidsnakex | http://imagebin.org/168027 | 01:42 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, in that unallocated put a swap then take another screenshot so we know we are on the same page | 01:43 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, you have to run them to with the green check mark | 01:44 |
| liquidsnakex | how do i put a swap urlin2u ? | 01:44 |
| liquidsnakex | yea i noticed i should execute the commands i am doing | 01:44 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, the dropdown where you found the ext4 has a swap option just scroll | 01:44 |
| urlin2u | right click the unallocated add then choose swap. | 01:45 |
| liquidsnakex | well yea the unallocated dropdown menu is all grey and theres no option to choose swap | 01:45 |
| urlin2u | then click the green check mark to execute tis so we see partitions= sda6 and sda7 | 01:46 |
| liquidsnakex | it's like unavailable | 01:46 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, cick the checkmark to run the delete and ext4 build first then | 01:46 |
| liquidsnakex | i clicked on the checkmark | 01:47 |
| liquidsnakex | and it succesffuly created that sda6 as ext4 | 01:47 |
| liquidsnakex | the unallocated is still unallocated and i can't do anything in it | 01:48 |
| urlin2u | cool the swap option should be available now in the unallocated. | 01:48 |
| liquidsnakex | well it's not available :/ | 01:48 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, do you see any keys is anything mounted | 01:48 |
| liquidsnakex | sorry nope | 01:49 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, give me another screenie | 01:49 |
| liquidsnakex | of Gparted or Disk utility ? | 01:49 |
| urlin2u | gparted, that is all that should be running by the way. | 01:50 |
| urlin2u | if you had the disk utility open that may be blocking the swap | 01:50 |
| liquidsnakex | i closed it, refresh the GParted and nothing new :/ | 01:51 |
| urlin2u | if so close the disk utility and see if swap is available now | 01:51 |
| urlin2u | lest se a picture | 01:51 |
| liquidsnakex | your screenie | 01:51 |
| liquidsnakex | http://imagebin.org/168029 | 01:51 |

| liquidsnakex | so this won't destroy win xp right ? | 02:09 |
| urlin2u | nope | 02:09 |
| liquidsnakex | it wil leave the win xp boot as it is right ? | 02:09 |
| urlin2u | leave XP alobe and choose sda | 02:10 |

| urlin2u | once this is all done and booted to ubuntu to run a grub-update and all you may want to run a chkldsk on XP as well. | 02:25 |
| urlin2u | chkdsk | 02:25 |
| liquidsnakex | well urlin2u i just want to see ubuntu 11.04 successffully installed and bootable as well as that option of choosing winxp or ubuntu is working too | 02:26 |
| liquidsnakex | and yea i have read what you are telling me in some forums | 02:26 |
| liquidsnakex | to check the integrity of both systems and thanks alot man for mentioning it | 02:27 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, the no file seen in XP may be a anomaly we will see if you can open it from ubuntu when you reboot. | 02:27 |
| liquidsnakex | what's the no file seen ? | 02:27 |
| liquidsnakex | you mean that i cannot see anything when ubuntu is installed because of xp ? | 02:27 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, you should be running a chkdsk on occasion anyway, depending on how much you use xp | 02:27 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, gparted and the red dot said it couldn't read XP, no big deal this happens could be a anomaly | 02:28 |
| liquidsnakex | i am a bit worried now ... | 02:28 |
| urlin2u | you have done nothing wrong don't worry | 02:29 |
| liquidsnakex | perhaps because xp is an a$$h*le :D ? | 02:29 |

| liquidsnakex | clicking skip is bad ? | 02:50 |
| urlin2u | liquidsnakex, probably will speed up the main thing is on the reboot go to ubuntu, and run a update, and a in the terminal sudo update-grub | 02:50 |
| urlin2u | I wouldn't click skip took alot of work to get here. | 02:50 |
| liquidsnakex | no no that's for "the language packs" man | 02:51 |
| liquidsnakex | are you focusing or you are tired | 02:51 |
| urlin2u | your choice I wouldn't | 02:51 |
| liquidsnakex | skipping language packs is bad :/ ? | 02:51 |

| urlin2u | yes reboot to ubuntu run the update then in the terminal run sudo update-grub | 02:57 |
| liquidsnakex | well thanks i will write that down | 02:57 |
| urlin2u | the terminal will ask for a password you wont see it when typing | 02:57 |
| liquidsnakex | well what pw ? my pw ? | 02:58 |
| urlin2u | look at the power manager and make sur it is not set for any shutdowns. | 02:58 |
| urlin2u | you put a password with your user name? | 02:59 |
| liquidsnakex | yes | 03:00 |
| urlin2u | that is the password for everything when asked for one | 03:01 |
| liquidsnakex | nice | 03:01 |
| urlin2u | can be changed if needed. | 03:01 |
| liquidsnakex | no problems | 03:01 |

| sluckxz | is there a way to apt-get purge everything back to the core install? | 03:29 |
| urlin2u | sluckxz, don't think so; what is the problem? | 03:35 |
| sluckxz | just want to go back and try again. | 03:38 |
| sluckxz | is there a way to run tasksel standard and remove everything else? | 03:39 |
| urlin2u | not familiar with debian commands personally. | 03:40 |
| urlin2u | problem with the purge idea is that you haven't named what you have done, or answerd what the problem is. | 03:41 |
| sluckxz | i loaded a few desktops i want removed xfce and lxde | 03:42 |
| sluckxz | just want to start over at a core system like the old ubuntu server version and try again | 03:42 |
| sluckxz | no big problem. im unhappy with performance | 03:43 |
| urlin2u | that is fixable look on the web for removing the desktops you can get a list off all there packages. Or just reinstall. | 03:46 |
| bazhang | sluckxz, try the !puregnome !purekde !purelxde links, just dont install the ubuntu-desktop or whatever at the end | 03:46 |
| sluckxz | thanks bazhang | 03:46 |
| bazhang | welcome | 03:47 |
| bazhang | !purelxde | 03:47 |
| ubot2 | If you want to remove all !KDE, !GNOME and !XFCE packages and have a default !Lubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purelxde » | 03:47 |
| bazhang | whoops | 03:47 |
| bazhang | all the links are there ^ | 03:47 |
| urlin2u | psychocats is the place for sure | 03:47 |
| sluckxz | cool ill start with the cats. thanks | 03:48 |
| Geodude | Er, I did something bad :( I kept getting an error in wine that had something to do with winmm.dll, so I went into winecfg and disabled it. Now when I try to open winecfg I get err:module:import_dll Library winmm.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\windows\\system32\\winecfg.exe") not found | 04:06 |
| Geodude | and winecfg won't open. So, how do I enable winmm.dll if I can't open winecfg? | 04:07 |
| bazhang | Geodude, #winehq for that | 04:07 |
| Geodude | They won't answer my question in newb form, though. And then they'll yell at me for not understanding them. | 04:07 |
| holstein | i dont use wine much like that anymore, but i remember throwing .wine away a lot and starting over | 04:08 |
| Geodude | I hadn't thought of that. | 04:08 |
| Geodude | How do I do the thing where I make a new/clean .wine folder/registry/winecfg? | 04:10 |
| holstein | Geodude: i remember just trashing it, and generating a new one when winecfg started | 04:22 |
| holstein | something tricky i was using... slingplayer? something odd like that... i dont do it anymore | 04:22 |
| Geodude | Got it. Thanks a ton holstein :) | 04:40 |
| Beav3r | My 11.04 system is hanging at a purple screen after re-installation. Can anyone help me out? | 05:06 |
| Beav3r | The HDD light is off and hitting esc brings me to a black screen with a cursor. The virtual console runs fine though | 05:11 |
| holstein | Beever: i would look at the graphics driver... i would try running the CD live using the 'nomodeset' option | 05:39 |
| urlin2u | holstein, how is it going. | 05:41 |
| holstein | urlin2u: not bad | 05:42 |
| urlin2u | holstein, good deal just saying hi. ;-) | 05:42 |
| holstein | its late, and i cant sleep, but i think im going to try again :) | 05:43 |
| urlin2u | I hate when that happens. ;( | 05:43 |
| Geodude | Is there some easy way launch winecfg for separate prefixes? Like, an icon. Instead of having to type WINEPREFIX=/home/geo/.wine-games winecfg in a terminal every time? | 06:02 |
| holstein | Geodude: you might be able to make an icon on the desktop... a lanucher with 'app in terminal' as an option | 06:03 |
| holstein | i havent tried with wine commands like that though | 06:03 |
| Geodude | Tried that, it fails to launch. big red thing on my terminal. | 06:03 |
| holstein | Geodude: what thing? | 06:03 |
| Geodude | FAILSAUCE D: | 06:03 |
| Geodude | Okay it didn't say failsauce. | 06:03 |
| bioterror | holstein, how about alias | 06:03 |
| Geodude | There was an error creating the child process for this terminal | 06:03 |
| holstein | bioterror: i like it :) | 06:03 |
| Geodude | Failed to execute child process "WINEPREFIX=/home/geo/.wine" (No such file or directory) | 06:03 |
| holstein | Geodude: try what bioterror is suggesting | 06:04 |
| bioterror | !alias | 06:04 |
| ubot2 | Factoid 'alias' not found | 06:04 |
| bioterror | :o | 06:04 |
| Geodude | D: | 06:04 |
| bioterror | make two aliases | 06:04 |
| * Geodude googles. | 06:04 | |
| bioterror | winegame and winenormal | 06:04 |
| bioterror | or something | 06:04 |
| bioterror | when you want to play games, you way winegame and it will change the prefix | 06:05 |
| bioterror | say | 06:05 |
| Geodude | :/ Alias (TV series 2001-2006) - IMDb | 06:05 |
| bioterror | :D | 06:05 |
| bioterror | alias ls='ls --color=always' | 06:05 |
| bioterror | for example | 06:05 |
| Geodude | D: | 06:06 |
| bioterror | when I say ls, it will perform command ls --color=always | 06:06 |
| bioterror | add that to /etc/bash.bashrc | 06:06 |
| * Geodude stares into space. | 06:06 | |
| Geodude | You're saying words at me and I appreciate that, really. But I have no idea what you are saying. lol. | 06:06 |
| Geodude | let me google for a minute and see if I can figure out what an alias is. | 06:06 |
| bioterror | http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/aliases.html | 06:06 |
| Geodude | or that, thanks :] | 06:07 |
| Geodude | Yeah this is not in engish. | 06:08 |
| Geodude | English, either. | 06:08 |
| bioterror | Geodude, what's the command you say in terminal | 06:08 |
| bioterror | I assumed you used terminal | 06:08 |
| Geodude | I did it! :D I'm a linux guru!!! | 06:13 |
| holstein | Geodude: :) | 06:13 |
| Geodude | geo@Geo-Ubuntu:~$ alias winecfgDDO='WINEPREFIX=/home/geo/.wine-DDO winecfg' | 06:13 |
| bioterror | now add that alias..... line to your /etc/bash.bashrc | 06:16 |
| Geodude | my what now? | 06:16 |
| bioterror | !filesystem | 06:17 |
| ubot2 | An explanation of how files and directories are organized on Ubuntu, and how they can be manipulated, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview see also: man hier | 06:17 |
| Geodude | I don't have a bash.bashrc in my /etc folder | 06:17 |
| bioterror | how that's possible :o | 06:18 |
| bioterror | is it /etc/profile then | 06:18 |
| Geodude | profile is not a directory | 06:18 |
| Geodude | profile.d has a bash_completion.sh in it? | 06:20 |
| Geodude | /etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh | 06:20 |
| bioterror | no | 06:24 |
| bioterror | that's for completion | 06:24 |
| Geodude | There's really no way to have something just type a command in a terminal? | 06:27 |
| Geodude | I'm trying to get gnomeDO to do it but it refuses to bring up the terminal option. D: | 06:29 |
| philipballew | how would i add another irc sevrer besides freenode? | 06:35 |
| bioterror | check your irc clients documentation | 06:36 |
| Geodude | It depends which client you're using. | 06:36 |
| bioterror | for example irssi has guide | 06:36 |
| philipballew | i use xchat currently. probably easy | 06:36 |
| Geodude | ctrl+s | 06:37 |
| philipballew | alright, gonna add irc.gamesurge.net | 06:38 |
| philipballew | should be easy for me | 06:38 |
| urlin2u | philipballew, got the dude installed you were helping earlier. ;) | 06:55 |
| philipballew | urlin2u, nice! what was his problem? it seemed he didnt really have one | 06:56 |
| philipballew | i remember i had to go to drive an hour, when i got there i open my laptop and your still talkin | 06:56 |
| urlin2u | philipballew, just a little scared opf damaging XP we just did a systematic install with screenshots. | 06:56 |
| philipballew | and he did not damage i assume | 06:57 |
| urlin2u | took awhile but thats okay I wanted them to understand the mount and boot questions | 06:57 |
| urlin2u | I doubt it they crashed the language pack was a real slow download, every thing was correct. | 06:58 |
| philipballew | i was unsure all he was askin. seemed like he was over-complacating it | 06:58 |
| urlin2u | crashed=sleep | 06:58 |
| urlin2u | yeah it happens with beginners. | 06:58 |
| philipballew | watch as he now just whipes xp | 06:59 |
| philipballew | i would if i was him | 06:59 |
| urlin2u | It will happen probably once using a open source for awhile, I started with OS so windows is like playing pong for me . | 07:00 |
| urlin2u | relatively that is | 07:00 |
| urlin2u | you and holstein did a lot of help so it was nice to see it done. | 07:01 |
| philipballew | i think he was on a few days ago | 07:01 |
| === Geodude is now known as Geo|AFK | ||
| urlin2u | yeah I lurk mostly with great helpers I don't really chime in generally | 07:02 |
| philipballew | holstein, is easily the best helper on here | 07:03 |
| urlin2u | that is for sure. ;-) | 07:03 |
| urlin2u | sainthood compared to me | 07:04 |
| philipballew | experance maybe | 07:04 |
| urlin2u | patience is a virtue, and exsperience. | 07:04 |
| philipballew | how long you been usin ubuntu | 07:05 |
| urlin2u | philipballew, about since dapper 4-5 years | 07:08 |
| urlin2u | I have tried all the big ones as well | 07:08 |
| philipballew | nice, i started with 7.10 | 07:08 |
| philipballew | i use debian to | 07:08 |
| philipballew | ran open suse for a while | 07:09 |
| urlin2u | i like ubuntu for general ease of travel, I checked out the live opensuse looks nice thinking of installing. | 07:09 |
| urlin2u | p[inguyos is not bad as well. | 07:10 |
| urlin2u | pinguyos | 07:10 |
| urlin2u | easy install with all the codecs need, which I'm so used to installing doesn't matter but not a bad OS. | 07:11 |
| philipballew | sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras or something | 07:12 |
| urlin2u | exactly | 07:12 |
| urlin2u | a little trickier in fedora and arch but arch has the best wiki's | 07:12 |
| philipballew | never tried arch. worth it? | 07:14 |
| urlin2u | arch is not bad the beginners install page is perfectly setuo. | 07:17 |
| urlin2u | setup | 07:17 |
| philipballew | they really want you to read it | 07:18 |
| urlin2u | https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Official_Arch_Linux_Install_Guide it will get you installed perfectly, when I tried it the first time I had not relized that basically linux ix linux. | 07:19 |
| urlin2u | is | 07:19 |
| philipballew | how so | 07:19 |
| urlin2u | most of the linux releases are really running most of the same basic underlying setups with small differences. | 07:20 |
| philipballew | it is very true, file systems are all the same | 07:21 |
| urlin2u | kind of a generalization but not far off | 07:21 |
| urlin2u | mine that is | 07:21 |
| urlin2u | brand loyalty always makes me rofl | 07:21 |
| philipballew | ubuntu rocks!!! | 07:23 |
| urlin2u | I'm a pseudo power user really, I have a interests in open source but many others not in computers | 07:24 |
| urlin2u | I like ubuntu though I'm most used to it. | 07:24 |
| philipballew | its easy | 07:24 |
| urlin2u | even easier now, people will stop complaining after awhile. | 07:25 |
| urlin2u | unity big deal I had the cug-be spinning befor release. | 07:25 |
| urlin2u | cube | 07:25 |
| philipballew | can I but the cube on unity? | 07:26 |
| urlin2u | yeah, it losses the widow button line at times but another user turned me onto another app which does all that the fusion plugin did and more. | 07:27 |
| urlin2u | used this link the key is have a re-starter for compiz when your setting it up, as it looks bad. | 07:29 |
| urlin2u | http://reformedmusings.wordpress.com/2011/05/05/howto-get-the-compiz-desktop-cube-in-ubuntu-11-04-natty-and-unity/ | 07:29 |
| philipballew | do you like unity? | 07:30 |
| urlin2u | you can install the fusion icon and make a launcher in the desky=top clicking it restarts compiz, then install the app I mentioned it will sit in the top panel I will get you a link hold on | 07:30 |
| urlin2u | I like it, but use synapse and docky with it | 07:31 |
| urlin2u | here is the better than fusion icon app I just made a launcher on the desktop, then dragged it to the panel, and it appeared in the top panel, still there even after removing the launcher, it autostarts http://en.sourceforge.jp/projects/sfnet_displex/releases/ | 07:33 |
| philipballew | 11.10 looks nice | 07:34 |
| philipballew | what does this do? | 07:35 |
| urlin2u | http://imagebin.org/168060 I have it installed yeah, here is natty, I had the cube in Oneiric until today I haven't tweaked it back yet | 07:35 |
| urlin2u | the app I posted gives all the fusion icon stuff here is a image of the controls top right http://imagebin.org/168061 | 07:38 |
| urlin2u | kill switch I love | 07:38 |
| philipballew | so this gives me indactor applets in unity? | 07:39 |
| philipballew | nice! | 07:39 |
| urlin2u | just that one the others are a cpu switch, I think from a OMGubuntu page. | 07:40 |
| urlin2u | clipit as well in system, the weather is a dd on from the OMG | 07:40 |
| philipballew | i've been looking to get indactor applets on unity. how did you? | 07:40 |
| urlin2u | some work some don't I forget which all are ppa's believe http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/tag/indicatorapplets/ | 07:41 |
| urlin2u | I just searched with panel applets panel unity and tweaked from various web pages. | 07:43 |
| urlin2u | panel applets unity and variations | 07:43 |
| urlin2u | or natty | 07:43 |
| urlin2u | displex was the best score though a user on #ubuntu turned me onto it. | 07:45 |
| philipballew | hum. so all those indactor applets area sepereate install? | 07:46 |
| urlin2u | some worked for me some didn't I forget which ones, and I used other web pages as well, did it awhile ago, so I can't remember exactly. | 07:47 |
| urlin2u | I have ubuntu tweak which will purge ppa's so wont doesn't work can be removed easily. | 07:48 |
| urlin2u | what | 07:48 |
| urlin2u | separate ppa's as I remember | 07:48 |
| urlin2u | I have to much free time. ;-) | 07:49 |
| philipballew | urlin2u, as do I!!! | 07:51 |

| Kathrin_ | How can I change my name? | 19:32 |
| nlsthzn_work | Cool... what I could suggest if you just want to chat and hang out is to join #ubuntu-begginers -team... when this channel gets busy they may frown on just "socializing" | 19:33 |
| nlsthzn_work | What client are you using? | 19:33 |
| Kathrin_ | Oh I see. But you're in that too, aren't you? | 19:34 |
| Kathrin_ | I just clicked a link to come here. | 19:34 |
| nlsthzn_work | Kathrin_: are you using your browser to be here? | 19:36 |
| Kathrin_ | yes | 19:36 |
| nlsthzn_work | well for Linux you can install dedicated software for IRC, so you can be in many rooms etc... | 19:37 |
| nlsthzn_work | but webchat can too... | 19:37 |
| nlsthzn_work | type /join #ubuntu-beginners-team and press enter ;) | 19:38 |
