| xubuntu731 | Hi! I'm trying to do a multi-monitor setup on a fresh install, but I'm confused as to which driver I should use. Four options I'm given are version 173, version 173-updates, version current [recommended], and version current-updates. Any suggestions? | 01:26 |

| lepirat | Hi gents | 09:19 |
| lepirat | I'm happy to see people interested in XUbuntu, I'm new in this wonder world :) | 09:20 |
| lepirat | Gents | 10:18 |
| lepirat | I have a question, I was hoping to find a solution in this amazing channel | 10:18 |
| lepirat | I'm working on xubuntu started like 1 week | 10:18 |
| lepirat | Actually, I'm new at ubuntu world in general | 10:19 |
| bazhang | whats the actual question | 10:19 |
| lepirat | Question is : How can I install xubuntu on ( RAID1 ) machine and LVMs | 10:19 |
| lepirat | ? | 10:19 |
| lepirat | I need to install LVM on top of RAID 1 | 10:19 |
| lepirat | RAID 1 is Hardware Raid not Software | 10:20 |
| lepirat | best regards | 10:20 |
| Sysi | you can use LVM when installing with alternate disk | 10:21 |
| lepirat | Scenario is : I have a machine with two HDDs, I made them RAID 1 ( Mirroring ) .. Now I need to Install xubuntu using LVMs on this machine | 10:21 |
| lepirat | ? | 10:21 |
| Sysi | !alternate | 10:22 |
| ubottu | The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/alternative-download#alternate - See also !minimal | 10:22 |
| Sysi | hardware raid shouldn't affect operating system | 10:22 |
| lepirat | thanks guys, I took this article for example | 10:23 |
| lepirat | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1782296 | 10:23 |
| lepirat | It shows every thing perfect BUT | 10:24 |
| lepirat | It's not RAIDed | 10:24 |
| lepirat | When I made RAID 1 ( Hardware ) | 10:24 |
| lepirat | I did this lovely command ( sudo fdisk -l ) | 10:24 |
| lepirat | it shows me /dev/sda | 10:25 |
| Sysi | xubuntu doesn't know you have hardware raid | 10:25 |
| Sysi | it should just work | 10:25 |
| lepirat | no I suppose it knows that I have HW RAID | 10:26 |
| lepirat | because there is one more partition | 10:26 |
| lepirat | it's : /dev/mapper/isw_cffeiahdid_volume0 | 10:27 |
| lepirat | I don't know if it | 10:27 |
| lepirat | if it's generated because of RAID 1 ( Hardware ) | 10:27 |
| lepirat | if it's true | 10:27 |
| lepirat | then hoe can I make partitions and LVMs | 10:28 |
| lepirat | shall I take this it's : /dev/mapper/isw_cffeiahdid_volume0 | 10:28 |
| lepirat | or the original /dev/sda | 10:28 |
| lepirat | or /dev/sdb | 10:28 |
| lepirat | any idea ? | 10:29 |
| lepirat | I've been suffering from this more than 1 week, I don't know what to do ? | 10:30 |
| recon_lap | lepirat: dont seem to be many raid people here, maybe asking on one of the server channels ? | 10:30 |
| lepirat | I tried to deal direct with sda | 10:30 |
| lepirat | but won't work | 10:30 |
| lepirat | any partition I create in sda | 10:30 |
| lepirat | it will duplicated in sdb | 10:30 |
| lepirat | after I reboot the system | 10:31 |
| lepirat | so, here comes the LVM problem | 10:31 |
| recon_lap | lepirat: I would think that hardware RAID should just show to the OS as one drive? | 10:31 |
| lepirat | I need to install LVM on existing of RAID | 10:31 |
| lepirat | on Top of RAID | 10:31 |
| koegs | lepirat: what hardware raid controller do you use? | 10:31 |
| lepirat | recon_lap thanks for replay | 10:32 |
| lepirat | Kindly, where is the server channel | 10:32 |
| recon_lap | lepirat: would think you'll find all the raid experts in #ubuntu-server | 10:32 |
| Sysi | lepirat: I guess you need to use that /dev/mapper drive | 10:32 |
| lepirat | koegs : I not sure, but I have IBM Machine think Station | 10:33 |
| koegs | so maybe just a crappy fake-raid controller instead of a real hardware raid controller :) | 10:33 |
| lepirat | I don't know, maybe .. anyway | 10:35 |
| lepirat | thanks guys for your help | 10:35 |
| lepirat | much appreciated | 10:35 |
| koegs | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 10:35 |
| lepirat | see you on server channel | 10:35 |
| koegs | but i would not recommend using ubuntu on a onboard fakeraid-controller | 10:36 |
| lepirat | koegs | 10:37 |
| lepirat | that's really interesting | 10:37 |
| lepirat | what if I clear this RAID1 | 10:37 |
| lepirat | and make a software RAID, which I don't know how by the way .. it might work .. am I right ? | 10:38 |
| lepirat | sysi, thanks for replay .. but I did try it it wouldn't work iether | 10:38 |
| koegs | lepirat: do you also have a windows-installation on the harddrive? because clearing the raid1 might lose the windows-installation | 10:45 |
| lepirat | no I don't | 10:46 |
| koegs | then you can delete the fakeraid | 10:55 |
| lepirat | koegs : how can I do it, besides can you send me again the server forum, I lost a connection, I was having a conversation there .. please thanks | 10:56 |
| lepirat | guys ? | 10:59 |
| lepirat | koegs ? are you still there ? | 11:00 |
| koegs | lepirat: you have to read the manual of your workstation, if you want to know how to delete the bios fakeraid | 11:04 |
| recon_lap | lepirat: was #ubuntu-server | 11:10 |
| lepirat | thanks amigos :) | 11:13 |

| recon_lap | silent-prayer: hi, best to just ask | 14:39 |
| silent-prayer | been using xubuntu 12.04, hve this | 14:40 |
| silent-prayer | sorry, enter pressed accidentally; again, been using xubuntu 12.04, have this old hard disk w/ win xp on it, attached it as slave, however the pc boot xubuntu automatically , can i somehow get to have a boot option at the beginning, so that i can also use xp alongside xubuntu...? | 14:44 |
| GridCube | silent-prayer, run sudo update-grub | 14:46 |
| GridCube | it should detect the windows boot stage and add it to the grub list | 14:46 |
| silent-prayer | aw thanks, just done it, and it found win xp pro on '/dev/sdb1', sorry for the trouble, as i said noob here :) now im off to try it, thx again | 14:50 |

| home | how do I remotely control my xubuntu system? | 22:21 |
| home | I am already suing ssh, but its a hassle | 22:21 |
| Unit193 | Hassle? | 22:21 |
| home | yeah | 22:21 |
| home | I want to know how to use vnc or something to control my xubuntu box | 22:22 |
| Unit193 | Have you seen https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH ? | 22:22 |
| home | No | 22:23 |
| David-A | home: have you tried "ssh -Y ..." ? then you can start graphical programs remote and see their windows locally. | 22:24 |
| home | Cool | 22:26 |
| recon_lap | does xubuntu have a remote desktop? | 22:27 |
| David-A | recon_lap: yes, default client is Vinagre. can use ssh and vnc. there are others too, e.g remmina and a lot of packages with "vnc"+"viewer" in their names. | 22:34 |
