bazhang<zeeeero> I installed ubuntu server over windows and kept all my files becuase xp is not made to be a server04:17
bazhanghe's just giving evasive answers04:18
CellHey04:28
CellI just want you guys to know the user HiggsPossum and some other trolls are trying to trick newbies into destroying their hard drives04:28
Cellwhile I was asking a question in #ubuntu he told me to come to #e3b and told me they knew the answer to my question there04:29
Cellfollowed by this nonsense04:29
Cell<Cell> <Cell> Does anyone know to encrypt my / and /home file system in an existing Ubuntu installation?04:29
Cell<alex65> try dd if=/dev/crypto of=/dev/sdX04:29
Cell<alex65> if it doesn't work it means you do not have hardware crypto engine04:29
Cell<alex65> you could then try dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sdX04:29
Cell<alex65> sdX being the partition you want to encrypt, should be sda1 for / if you have only one hard drive.04:29

jaydenforageI have had an unanswerable problem, and I was hoping it could be fixed. I have Gnome Shell 3.4, and Gnome-Tweak-Tool and User Theme Extensions, but the area to apply a theme is greyed with an orange exclamation point triangle. What do I do?23:31
Jordan_Ujaydenforage: Do you realize that you're in #ubuntu-ops rather than #ubuntu?23:34
jaydenforageYes, I believe this was meant for unanswerable questions,am I wrong?23:34
Jordan_Ujaydenforage: See the channel topic :)23:35
jaydenforage!topic23:35
ubottuPlease read the channel topic whenever you enter, as it contains important information. To view it at any time after joining, simply type /topic23:35
jaydenforageConfused about how to do that.23:35
jaydenforageAh23:35
jaydenforageI have Insufficient arguements.23:35
chuTry /topic <channel-name> so, /topic #ubuntu-ops23:36
jaydenforageWell, I am not a channel operator either, but i have read on the website23:37
jaydenforageIt says its for problems that escalate23:37
jaydenforageOr no resolution23:37
jaydenforageWhich I have talked to people in #ubuntu and they have not been able to help23:37
chuYes, but it means users who are problems.23:37
jaydenforageAh..23:37
chuWe're here to sort out the users of the channels in the #ubuntu namespace.23:38
jaydenforageWell what if my problem cannot be fixed? Is there anyone else to talk to?23:38
Jordan_Ujaydenforage: You can try http://askubuntu.com , or http://ubuntuforums.org , or come back later and try asking again.23:39
jaydenforageAlright, thank you.23:39
