Superbestdoes the xubuntu 11.04 livecd provide any way of viewing SMART info?01:29
holsteinSuperbest: theres a disk utility in most ubuntu live CD's... AFAIK, its in xubuntu as well01:30
Superbestit has gparted yes01:30
holsteingparted and a disk utility as well01:31
Superbestoh01:33
Superbestwould you happen to know the name?01:33
holsteinSuperbest: in the menu its actually called "disk utility".. i once knew the pacakge name.. not much to it, if its not there, you can install it on the live CD i would think without any trouble01:34
holsteinyou can try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Smartmontools as well, though i usually just use a live CD like http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/01:35
Superbestah, ok01:36
Superbestin this case installing would be trouble, but I'll just try ubcd01:36
istokit's rather strange that ubuntu pics up my lan/network, yet xubuntu doesn't. I have tried several packages in order to set it up but without success :/02:22
istokpicks*02:23
holsteininteresting... i tend to find little issues like that that im assured cant be happening ;)02:23
istoki'm on 10.04, it doesn't come with a 'network' tab, under places02:24
holsteinand you are trying 10.04 *buntu's?... i would expect different support from different kernels02:24
istoki can't even ping the network, but if i'm on normal ubuntu, it works fine02:24
istoki had the same kernel with ubuntu02:24
holsteinyou can always install ubuntu-desktop and just not use it02:24
istokon top of xfce?02:25
holsteini mean, you *should* be able to track down whats missing and get just that, but i have no idea where to start02:26
istokinteresting.02:26
istokneither, i've installed samba and other network packages02:27
istokdoesn't seemed to have helped02:27
holsteinthe few cases ive had, i usually poke around a few places, ask around and get a few "no way thats happenings" and then i give up and install the meta02:27
holsteinistok: samba wont do anything02:27
istoksamba should allow me to setup shares, which in effect would allow my system to be visable on the lan, it currently isn't02:27
holsteinmaybe its a backport thats just not included by default02:27
istokif i run ubuntu, it is visable straight away02:27
istokyeah02:27
holsteinistok: samba will work when the network is working... otherwise, it wont do anything02:27
istoki'll get to the bottom of it, i just hope sooner than later02:27
holsteini would install ubuntu, then install xfce or xubuntu, and enjoy...02:27
istoki'd rather keep my current system, it's perfect, except for the lan issue02:28
holsteincool.. we'll see how long you can maintain that chipper attitude ;)02:29
istoki'm in an apartment complex, we've set up a sharenet, so i can get access to tv/movies/docs/etc02:29
istokthere are like 400+ PC on lan02:29
istokheh02:29
holsteinistok: youve tried searching the name in google?02:29
holsteinthe exact model?02:29
istoki've tried everything, google is always the first place i check02:30
holsteinmaybe a bug report will tell all02:30
istokexact model?02:30
holsteinof the NIC02:30
istoki can see mine, not the sharenet02:30
holsteinistok: your what?02:30
holsteinmaybe im misunderstanding02:31
holsteinthe NIC is working?02:31
holsteinyou just arent seeing a wifi access point?02:31
holsteinjust install wicd and try using it02:31
istokmy nic works fine, it usually detects the lan on other OS i run, except xubuntu02:31
istokthe nic of the sharenet, no idea02:32
holsteinthe lan on the other OS i run...02:32
holsteinyou are setting up a wifi access point on some other machine?02:32
holsteinregardless.. try another network manager02:32
holsteinwicd would be at the top of the list of my suggestions02:32
istokno wifi point, just cable lan02:34
istokit's annoying, to say the least.02:34
holsteinistok: im not following.. try gigolo then02:36
holsteinor set up a more friendly share02:36
