| TaraLS | Hi all. | 03:50 |
|---|---|---|
| TaraLS | Squirm, *wave* | 03:50 |
| magespawn | morning y'all | 04:18 |
| magespawn | superfly maybe, but i think that the market is a bit flat at the moment | 04:19 |
| TaraLS | magespawn, Hiya | 04:23 |
| TaraLS | My comp rebooted itself randomly. | 04:24 |
| TaraLS | It's done it once before (I may have told you), and it made a weird beep noise in the headphones when it did | 04:24 |
| TaraLS | This time, there was no noise | 04:24 |
| TaraLS | I did a syslog and got this: | 04:24 |
| TaraLS | http://slexy.org/view/s213ogFaQB | 04:24 |
| TaraLS | At the bottom, it talks about the ethernet card failing or something. | 04:24 |
| TaraLS | I briefly disconnected the internet a few days back to test something, and then in order to put it back on, I had to set it to 'auto detect', which I don't think it was on before. | 04:25 |
| magespawn | will check it out | 04:33 |
| TaraLS | I've long thought that maybe my ethernet card is what's causing the freezing somehow. I've always been online, even when using my music and art programs, and stuff, so. Ugh, I don't know. Nothing else is wrong. :| Stupid hardware. | 04:34 |
| magespawn | is it the onboard lan card? | 04:37 |
| TaraLS | Yeah. | 04:37 |
| TaraLS | It's a realtek | 04:37 |
| TaraLS | Other people have written having freezing issues and that their realtek had that same error that mine is showing | 04:38 |
| TaraLS | Well, one other person. He wasn't using Ubuntu, but he described essentially the same problem | 04:38 |
| * TaraLS googled. | 04:38 | |
| magespawn | then get yourself an add on lan card, see if that solves the problem | 04:41 |
| TaraLS | Can I get any card, as long as it fits the motherboard? | 04:42 |
| magespawn | yes | 04:42 |
| magespawn | how old is the mb? | 04:42 |
| TaraLS | I dunno. How do I find that out? | 04:42 |
| TaraLS | Oh. The motherboard booklet says E4734 Third Edition V3, April 2009 | 04:43 |
| magespawn | not serious, you can google the mb model name and they will tell what slots the board has and therefore what card typw to get | 04:44 |
| magespawn | if you let the pc shop know that they can get you the right card | 04:44 |
| TaraLS | Okay. | 04:44 |
| magespawn | they are usually quite cheap | 04:45 |
| magespawn | this might sound a bit strange, but how/where do you get that info you posted? | 04:46 |
| TaraLS | magespawn, The stuff Ishowed you on slexy just now? | 04:49 |
| magespawn | yes | 04:50 |
| TaraLS | I got it by typing in terminal: cat /var/log/syslog | 04:50 |
| magespawn | ty | 04:50 |
| TaraLS | Right where it shows the interwebs fail error is where my comp rebooted, pretty much. | 04:50 |
| TaraLS | How come? | 04:50 |
| magespawn | still learning linux | 04:51 |
| TaraLS | Ahh, alrighty | 04:51 |
| magespawn | there should also be away to get to send out just the info you, if memory serves, but not sure how | 04:52 |
| magespawn | want^ | 04:52 |
| magespawn | all comes up in the terminal | 04:52 |
| magespawn | ? | 04:52 |
| TaraLS | But that's the thing. I don't know what info I want, short of just wanting it to show me what, if any, errors happened during the time of the freeze/reboot | 04:52 |
| TaraLS | Yeah. | 04:53 |
| magespawn | you can also send that directly to a text file, again not sure how | 04:53 |
| magespawn | maybe like this ' cat /var/log/syslog grep | 'filename'' but do not use that until we confirm that | 04:55 |
| Kilosm | morning all | 04:55 |
| magespawn | without the quotes | 04:55 |
| magespawn | morning Kilosm | 04:56 |
| TaraLS | Hiyo | 04:58 |
| magespawn | did some reading look like it should be "cat /var/log/syslog | grep 'filename' " | 05:02 |
| magespawn | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxLogFiles | 05:03 |
| TaraLS | I dunno what to put in 'filename' though | 05:05 |
| TaraLS | That's only good for someone who knows what he/she wants to look for | 05:05 |
| TaraLS | Who is Kilosm? | 05:06 |
| Kilosm | me on maverick | 05:06 |
| Kilosm | 10.10 | 05:06 |
| TaraLS | Ohh | 05:06 |
| TaraLS | Okay. | 05:06 |
| TaraLS | Kilosm, My comp hasn't frozen since I removed and put back the CPU (though I haven't really loaded it with any streaming video or anything), but it rebooted itself just before. | 05:06 |
| TaraLS | Out of nowhere. | 05:06 |
| magespawn | no the file name is whatever you want to call it, you could say 'filename' as 'syslog25/11/12' for example | 05:07 |
| Kilosm | once only | 05:07 |
| TaraLS | No. It was the one time where it made the beep, and then about.... twoish hours ago or whatever, maybe not even, it rebooted itself again. | 05:07 |
| TaraLS | Without a sound, and without freezin | 05:07 |
| TaraLS | g | 05:07 |
| Kilosm | ai | 05:08 |
| TaraLS | http://slexy.org/view/s213ogFaQB <-- Line 233 | 05:08 |
| magespawn | also if you do have an idea of what you are looking for you cannthe following | 05:08 |
| Kilosm | did you get that thingie that shows all the voltages on the mb | 05:09 |
| TaraLS | No. What thing? | 05:09 |
| Kilosm | gives little icons somewhere | 05:09 |
| TaraLS | Also, WIne doesn't even support lexmark or genius, so it's useless to me, but thanks for it anyway. | 05:09 |
| magespawn | grep sshd /var/log/auth.log | less | 05:10 |
| Kilosm | im on other pc now but gave them to you in mxit i think | 05:10 |
| Kilosm | was more tools to see voltages | 05:10 |
| TaraLS | Should I put that in terminal, magespawn ? | 05:10 |
| Kilosm | from psu in i think | 05:10 |
| TaraLS | Kilosm, I did what it told me to do, and then pasted the results to you in slexy, I believe. | 05:10 |
| Kilosm | after that one | 05:10 |
| Kilosm | a better one | 05:10 |
| TaraLS | I dunno, Kilos. Maybe I didn't get it. I guess you'll have to send it again. | 05:11 |
| Kilosm | when i get back to that pc | 05:11 |
| TaraLS | kk | 05:11 |
| magespawn | that command sshd give info about sshd log in attempts from the auth log, the less command is what gets only that info | 05:11 |
| Kilosm | busy try to fix kde | 05:11 |
| Kilosm | magespawn, dont use boot-repair near kde | 05:11 |
| magespawn | not good? | 05:12 |
| Kilosm | its a gnome friendly tool | 05:12 |
| magespawn | ahh | 05:12 |
| Kilosm | my kde is totally gone | 05:12 |
| Kilosm | mbr and all | 05:12 |
| Kilosm | got 80 GB unallocated space but cant partition or anything | 05:13 |
| magespawn | ouch | 05:13 |
| magespawn | TaraLS: line 233? | 05:14 |
| TaraLS | magespawn, What are you asking? | 05:14 |
| magespawn | is that the line that you think says the lan card has failed? | 05:15 |
| TaraLS | Not the card itself. That says that the connection failed or something. | 05:15 |
| TaraLS | I'm just saying... Maybe the freezing has to do with the stupid card itself. | 05:15 |
| TaraLS | And I just saw, lines 181/182. Whassat meaaan? | 05:16 |
| magespawn | maybe but that line means it could not get an ip version 6 network address | 05:16 |
| magespawn | most isp's are still using ip version4 | 05:16 |
| TaraLS | Line 113... | 05:16 |
| TaraLS | Well, I dunno. I just know that my comp rebooted right around that the 46th minute mark | 05:17 |
| magespawn | 181/182 are referining to dns but what exactly i am not sure | 05:19 |
| magespawn | now 113 looks promising but have no idea what it means | 05:19 |
| Kilosm | serious refs that | 05:20 |
| * magespawn goes to google | 05:20 | |
| TaraLS | Yeah... | 05:20 |
| TaraLS | lol | 05:20 |
| TaraLS | Google for the win. | 05:20 |
| Kilosm | referining | 05:20 |
| Kilosm | hehe | 05:20 |
| Kilosm | you tired kiddo? | 05:20 |
| TaraLS | Nope. | 05:20 |
| TaraLS | I mean, a tiny bit. But I'm fine. | 05:20 |
| Kilosm | oh btw im sure moms pc will take ubuntu with more ram in but those ddr cards are getting scarce and hard to come by no | 05:23 |
| TaraLS | Ah well. | 05:23 |
| TaraLS | Mom's PC doesn't need Ubuntu. It's Windows works fine. | 05:23 |
| TaraLS | Annoyingly. | 05:23 |
| Kilosm | lol | 05:23 |
| Kilosm | oh magespawn btw too | 05:24 |
| TaraLS | Its* | 05:24 |
| Kilosm | those other mbr tools are all microstinks stuff and small enough to work from floppy | 05:24 |
| Kilosm | and i dont have ms to use them with but still got a floppy going | 05:25 |
| magespawn | ty guys late night early morning and amtouch screen, those are my excuses and i am stcking with them | 05:26 |
| Kilosm | you falling asleep? | 05:27 |
| Kilosm | sorry for bugging you | 05:27 |
| magespawn | no just got up | 05:28 |
| nlsthzn | o/ | 05:28 |
| Kilosm | hi nlsthzn | 05:29 |
| nlsthzn | how are you uncle Kilosm | 05:29 |
| nlsthzn | ? | 05:29 |
| magespawn | hey nlsthzn | 05:29 |
| Kilosm | hows things in ahab land | 05:29 |
| Kilosm | im good ty | 05:29 |
| nlsthzn | good good :) weather is very nice | 05:29 |
| nlsthzn | alo magespawn ? How are you? | 05:29 |
| Kilosm | here too, weve had lotsa rain for a change | 05:30 |
| magespawn | sort of awake, and you? | 05:30 |
| Kilosm | 33mm 60mm and 38mm in three days | 05:30 |
| Kilosm | christmas | 05:30 |
| magespawn | Kilosm: can you remember who was talking about getting stickers made? | 05:32 |
| Kilosm | queery and some gauteng peeps methinks | 05:32 |
| magespawn | Maaz tell queery http://www.stickermule.com/?utm_campaign=Carbon_August_12&utm_medium=Banner&utm_source=Carbon | 05:34 |
| Maaz | magespawn: Righto, I'll tell Queery on freenode | 05:34 |
| magespawn | not sure how the costing will wwork out on that though since it is usa based | 05:35 |
| TaraLS | Kilosm, Hey, Hardware Sensors Detector shows a ton of voltages | 05:36 |
| TaraLS | They're just not labelled what for | 05:36 |
| Kilosm | eish postage costs nowadays | 05:36 |
| TaraLS | Oh. atk0110-acpi-0 | 05:36 |
| Kilosm | yeah those 1.3 and 5.something are the ones to watch | 05:36 |
| TaraLS | Vcore Voltage, +3.3 voltage, +5 volate, +12 Voltage | 05:37 |
| Kilosm | hover over each icon | 05:37 |
| Kilosm | aw unity dropped that function | 05:37 |
| Kilosm | ya all of them they are from psu to pc | 05:37 |
| TaraLS | Oh... | 05:37 |
| TaraLS | If I'm understanding this correctly... | 05:37 |
| magespawn | they say free delivery but maybe only in the states | 05:37 |
| TaraLS | The +5 means it can take more than, or that's its maximum? | 05:38 |
| Kilosm | oi magespawn | 05:38 |
| Kilosm | no | 05:38 |
| Kilosm | + = positive | 05:38 |
| TaraLS | I know what a + means. But what's it meaning in this instance? | 05:38 |
| TaraLS | Positive what? | 05:38 |
| Kilosm | positive not negative voltage | 05:38 |
| TaraLS | ....Well, yeah, Kilos. What's that MEAN? | 05:39 |
| Kilosm | like a car battery uses earth and +12 | 05:39 |
| Kilosm | some things use - voltages too | 05:39 |
| Kilosm | like =12v and -12 with earth in between | 05:40 |
| Kilosm | +12v | 05:40 |
| TaraLS | Okay. | 05:40 |
| TaraLS | So. | 05:40 |
| TaraLS | The voltages say | 05:40 |
| TaraLS | For instance | 05:40 |
| TaraLS | The one that say +5 Voltage | 05:40 |
| TaraLS | It's going at a rate of 5.09 | 05:40 |
| TaraLS | Does that matter? | 05:40 |
| Kilosm | nope thats good | 05:40 |
| Kilosm | when it drops its struggling | 05:40 |
| TaraLS | Okay... | 05:41 |
| Kilosm | like 4.5 will switch off | 05:41 |
| TaraLS | How do you know that the +5 one is the power one specifically? | 05:41 |
| TaraLS | What if it stays above 5, but the +3 one drops below 3? | 05:41 |
| TaraLS | Like... yeah. | 05:41 |
| Kilosm | or 4.8 maybe | 05:41 |
| Kilosm | its all those TaraLS | 05:41 |
| Kilosm | they are all from psu to mb | 05:42 |
| Kilosm | shows state of psu | 05:42 |
| TaraLS | What does "from psu to mb" mean? | 05:43 |
| magespawn | a little variation on either side of the target voltage is okay | 05:43 |
| Kilosm | when they start struggling then they give less than a new one and crash quicker | 05:43 |
| TaraLS | "less than a new one" what? | 05:43 |
| magespawn | from power supply unit to the motherboard | 05:43 |
| Kilosm | that big plug from the power supply to the motherboard | 05:43 |
| magespawn | new power supply | 05:44 |
| TaraLS | magespawn, I know what it means. But like... | 05:44 |
| Kilosm | hehe fast on that thing hey | 05:44 |
| TaraLS | Oh well. | 05:44 |
| TaraLS | It's not worth it lol | 05:44 |
| TaraLS | Kilosm, Ah okay | 05:44 |
| * magespawn on a differnet page | 05:44 | |
| Kilosm | that one link says as they age they lose power | 05:44 |
| TaraLS | Okay but | 05:45 |
| Kilosm | we actually got a shop here that sells them cheaper than there by you | 05:45 |
| Kilosm | R190 for 400w | 05:45 |
| TaraLS | Would power failures cause freezing and rebooting at intermittent times, or would it be consistent? | 05:45 |
| Kilosm | yip | 05:45 |
| TaraLS | Yip what | 05:46 |
| Kilosm | power is a funny thing | 05:46 |
| TaraLS | It's annoying | 05:46 |
| TaraLS | Very damn annoying | 05:46 |
| Kilosm | yip it will cause probs | 05:46 |
| TaraLS | I know it will cause probs | 05:46 |
| TaraLS | Okay | 05:46 |
| TaraLS | Shh | 05:46 |
| TaraLS | No more PC talk lol | 05:46 |
| Kilosm | pc voltages are critical | 05:46 |
| * TaraLS drops out of the conversation. | 05:46 | |
| magespawn | lol | 05:47 |
| Kilosm | magespawn, hows your guys there handling the rhino poaching | 05:49 |
| TaraLS | KILL THEM ALL | 05:49 |
| TaraLS | The poachers, I mean. | 05:49 |

| magespawn | kzn is getting hit but not as bad as others yet | 05:51 |
| Kilosm | kruger has even bought a microlite to watch for them and have a coupla choppers on standby all the time | 05:52 |
| magespawn | i was involved in a project for a spotter plane, really a fixed wing microlight | 05:52 |

| Kilos | UBCD | 07:59 |
| mazal | Since I got my new pc none of the apps mos see my HDD | 07:59 |
| mazal | What app does it use for cloning ? | 07:59 |
| Kilos | or that dd command the fly says stay away from | 07:59 |
| Kilos | ? | 07:59 |
| mazal | dd not an option , drive is to big | 07:59 |
| mazal | Will take forever and don't have such huge destination | 08:00 |
| Kilos | you wanna clone to a smaller drive? | 08:00 |
| Kilos | eeek | 08:00 |
| mazal | To an image file , like I always did | 08:01 |
| mazal | But the stupid software don't work with my new m/board | 08:01 |

| Kilos | someone once told me how to make an iso of your running drive | 08:02 |
| Kilos | whew | 08:02 |

| nlsthzn | cool | 09:48 |
| Kilos | i just make noise here | 09:48 |
| nlsthzn | nah, you are awesome here :) | 09:49 |
| Kilos | couldnt get 8.04 to go online | 09:49 |
| nlsthzn | my first dabs with Ubuntu was 6.06... but only since coming here have I really had net access | 09:49 |
| Kilos | but thats where the ubuntu bug got hold | 09:49 |
| Kilos | wow you a ballie then | 09:49 |
| Kilos | 6.06 was first lts | 09:50 |
| nlsthzn | I was never hooked on Ubuntu actually... I <3 openSUSE then I made politics get the better of me and switched... | 09:50 |
| Kilos | lol | 09:50 |
| nlsthzn | should say loved openSUSE | 09:50 |
| nlsthzn | still like it :) | 09:51 |

| charl_ | good afternoon | 10:57 |
| charl_ | Maaz: coffee on | 10:57 |
| * Maaz washes some mugs | 10:57 | |
| Kilos | hi charl_ | 11:00 |
| Kilos | Maaz, coffee on | 11:00 |
| Maaz | Kilos: There's already a pot on. If you ask nicely, maybe you can have a cup | 11:00 |
| Kilos | Maaz, coffee please | 11:01 |
| Maaz | Kilos: Righto | 11:01 |
| charl_ | hi Kilos | 11:01 |
| Maaz | Coffee's ready for charl_ and Kilos! | 11:01 |
| Kilos | Maaz, ty | 11:01 |
| Maaz | You are welcome Kilos | 11:01 |
| Kilos | that was fast | 11:01 |
| Kilos | oh no 4 mins | 11:02 |
| charl_ | Maaz: thanks | 11:03 |
| Maaz | charl_: Okay :-) | 11:03 |
| Kilos | so hows charl_ doin | 11:12 |
| Kilos | sup mazal | 11:21 |
| mazal | I was right , it was software related between the app and my mboard | 11:22 |
| mazal | I saw that there is a brand new Redo based on the latest Ubuntu | 11:22 |
| mazal | Tried that one and it works :) | 11:22 |
| Kilos | great | 11:22 |
| mazal | Haven't played with ubcd yet , will do that a bit later | 11:22 |
| Kilos | its very time consuming to find what you wanna do there | 11:23 |
| Kilos | but i think its a great and usefull cd to have when working on drives lots | 11:24 |
| Kilos | just wish they had a manual or user guide | 11:24 |
| mazal | Ja I also looked for a manual , but they don't have one | 11:26 |
| mazal | Would have loved to learn more about all those apps | 11:27 |
| Kilos | its very involved and if you click the wrong thin bang crash | 11:28 |
| Kilos | like never use clean or delete in the hdd section | 11:28 |
| Kilos | then often even your bios doesnt see the drive anymore | 11:29 |
| mazal | hmm | 11:30 |
| Kilos | maybe i just didnt tell it nicely what to clean | 11:36 |
| Kilos | thats what i say a manual would be great to have | 11:36 |
| charl_ | hi Kilos | 12:41 |
| charl_ | sorry got busy with other stuff here | 12:41 |
| charl_ | cleaning the house and doing the laundry :) | 12:41 |
| charl_ | i'm doing well, yourself? | 12:42 |
| mazal | Lo charl_ | 12:47 |
| charl_ | hi mazal | 13:10 |
| charl_ | how's it going | 13:10 |
| Kilos | ok ty | 13:32 |
| charl_ | btw what happened re ibid and the twitter integration? | 13:33 |
| charl_ | been away for two weeks so lost track of things | 13:33 |
| charl_ | "away" from irc i mean | 13:33 |
| Kilos | oh i dunno | 13:36 |
| Kilos | ask maaz | 13:36 |
| Kilos | Maaz, last tweet by inetpro | 13:37 |
| Maaz | Kilos: No such twit | 13:37 |
| charl_ | twit | 13:38 |
| charl_ | ok that's rude :) | 13:38 |
| charl_ | Maaz: stop calling inetpro a twit | 13:38 |
| Maaz | charl_: Excuse me? | 13:38 |
| Kilos | looks like nothing sorted there yet | 13:39 |
| charl_ | somebody needs to learn Maaz some manners ! | 13:39 |
| * charl_ kicks maaz and hurts his foot in the process... bad idea | 13:39 | |
| Kilos | is that a rss feeds thing | 13:39 |
| charl_ | metal isn't a good thing to kick | 13:39 |
| Kilos | hehe | 13:40 |
| * charl_ needs a boot with reinforced front | 13:40 | |
| Kilos | ohi magtie | 13:40 |

| Kilos | but data prohibits | 16:29 |
| magespawn | no more like a reference for you pc, i think it does sync online though but have a look | 16:30 |
| magespawn | http://www.mendeley.com/ | 16:30 |

| magespawn | i wanted to try it out to organise all the pdf files that i have | 16:32 |
| magespawn | maiatoday told me about it, there are other options too | 16:32 |
| magespawn | http://alternativeto.net/software/mendeley/ | 16:34 |
| magespawn | Maaz google mendeley alternatives | 16:36 |
| Maaz | magespawn: "Mendeley Alternatives and Similar Software - AlternativeTo.net" http://alternativeto.net/software/mendeley/ :: "Papers or Mendeley? « Astu's science blog" http://astuscience.wordpress.com/2009/05/05/papers-or-mendeley/ :: "Ye Olde Jonathan Birge » Blog Archive » Mendeley: How NOT to ..." http://scripts.mit.edu/~birge/blog/mendeley-how-not-to-run-a | 16:36 |

| Kilos | whew | 16:37 |
| Kilos | they all web stuff | 16:38 |
| Kilos | basically | 16:38 |
| Kilos | all i need is to not crash drives when i got folders for everything | 16:38 |
| Kilos | like ibid, commands for this, commands for that etc | 16:38 |
| Kilos | and other workarounds and things i use | 16:39 |
| zeref | hmmm | 16:39 |
| Kilos | always end up with a massive mess on desktop and when i tidy it i forget what went where | 16:40 |
| Kilos | lo hmmmmer | 16:40 |
| zeref | lo Kilos | 16:40 |
| Kilos | answer would be a secretary | 16:41 |
| magespawn | they make real coffee too sometimes | 16:43 |
| magespawn | so double score | 16:43 |
| magespawn | folders with the name of the topic? | 16:44 |
| Kilos | lol | 16:46 |
| Kilos | ya | 16:47 |
| Kilos | but there so many commands for different things i still lose them and find another day when looking for something else | 16:47 |
| magespawn | ahh well i always tend to keep multiple copies as well | 16:48 |
| Kilos | lol yeah and they just as easy to forget where they are | 16:50 |
| magespawn | indeed | 16:50 |
| Kilos | might even have a mage one here | 16:50 |
| Kilos | got a kerbero with networking stuff and links | 16:50 |
| magespawn | sometimes spend awhile looking, even just through email | 16:51 |
| Kilos | monkey with what he helped me with | 16:51 |
| Kilos | etc etc | 16:51 |
| magespawn | i am honoured | 16:51 |
| Kilos | hehe | 16:51 |
| Kilos | most guys that helped me have one | 16:51 |
| Kilos | the weed is the ibid one | 16:53 |
| Kilos | and very deep somewhere is the crashkid with finding a prin i think it waster | 16:54 |
| Kilos | printer | 16:54 |
| mazal | I must say unity helps me a lot to find files | 16:54 |
| Kilos | i also have them spread over 4 drives with different ubuntus on | 16:55 |
| mazal | ouch | 16:55 |
| magespawn | maybe use an external | 16:55 |
| Kilos | and an external that i dunno has what on apart from archives and backups | 16:55 |
| mazal | Have you ever looked into recoil Kilos ? | 16:56 |
| Kilos | nope what that | 16:56 |
| Kilos | in firearms yes | 16:56 |
| mazal | You set it up to monitor and then can search for phrases | 16:56 |
| mazal | And it actually not only checks filename , but also file contents | 16:56 |
| Kilos | the recoil on an fn rifle can almost break your shoulder if gas not set right | 16:56 |
| mazal | I had it on my previous install , but never used it much as unity mostly found what I was looking for | 16:57 |
| Kilos | will ask you again to tell me about it when/if i get kde going again | 16:57 |
| Kilos | im crying | 16:57 |
| Kilos | it wasnt a 80g drive with kde it was a 160g | 16:58 |
| Kilos | mweeee | 16:58 |
| mazal | You format wrong drive ? | 16:58 |
| Kilos | with everything saved on the 50g /storage | 16:58 |
| Kilos | tried boot-repair but forgot to disconnect kde | 16:59 |
| Kilos | boot-repair killed mbr boot sector and everything | 16:59 |
| mazal | Eina !!! | 17:00 |
| Kilos | whole drive doesnt allow me to partittion | 17:00 |
| Kilos | hehe | 17:00 |
| magespawn | can you not reinstall kde? | 17:00 |
| Kilos | such is life when you sit on your brain | 17:00 |
| Kilos | it cant partition it | 17:00 |
| Kilos | shows as unallocated but cant partition | 17:01 |
| magespawn | usually when you reinstall it detects the previous install and allows a side by side install | 17:01 |
| Kilos | maybe its some bug that came in with the 2 TB drive that was connected same time | 17:01 |
| Kilos | not one ubuntu can add a partition on it | 17:02 |
| Kilos | cant set it as active or anything | 17:02 |
| magespawn | disktools? | 17:03 |
| mazal | Have you tried in gparted "Device-delete partition table then Device-create partition table" ? | 17:03 |
| Kilos | which one magespawn | 17:03 |
| magespawn | brb | 17:03 |
| Kilos | ive tried for days now with UBCD and supergrub | 17:03 |
| magespawn | Called Disk Utility | 17:04 |
| magespawn | will find a link | 17:04 |
| magespawn | https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/precise/gnome-disk-utility/ | 17:05 |
| magespawn | i have found that it works sometimes when goarted does not | 17:05 |
| magespawn | gparted even | 17:05 |
| Kilos | gparted cant see it at all | 17:06 |
| Kilos | will look there ty | 17:06 |
| Kilos | hope its not big download | 17:06 |
| Kilos | i actually thing the mbr is corrupt in some way that i have been able to fix | 17:08 |
| magespawn | not too sure about the size | 17:08 |
| Kilos | cant be too big methinks | 17:09 |
| magespawn | should be in the software centre | 17:09 |
| Kilos | oh then i have tried it | 17:09 |
| Kilos | dont see drive at all | 17:09 |
| magespawn | you sure? | 17:10 |
| Kilos | yip | 17:10 |
| magespawn | ahh well | 17:10 |
| magespawn | not sure what else to try | 17:10 |
| Kilos | but will find a way or die trying | 17:11 |
| Kilos | xp might work if i can get it to see the sata drive | 17:14 |
| Kilos | then fixboot and fixmbr | 17:14 |
| magespawn | did run Disk Utility as root? | 17:15 |
| magespawn | apparently it defaults to the current user | 17:15 |
| Kilos | ran it from my unity | 17:15 |
| Kilos | even testdisk cant see it | 17:16 |
| Kilos | but bios can | 17:16 |
| Kilos | so there must be a way | 17:17 |
| magespawn | did you try them with sudo? | 17:17 |
| Kilos | yip | 17:17 |
| magespawn | mm that sounds interesting | 17:18 |
| Kilos | very. i will really feel ive accomplished something when its fixed again | 17:19 |
| magespawn | indeed, document the steps if you can | 17:19 |
| Kilos | will try but doing so many things mixes one up some | 17:20 |
| magespawn | ahh we do what we can | 17:20 |
| Kilos | ya | 17:21 |
| Kilos | will be a good one to win though | 17:21 |
| Kilos | then the 2 TB should be easy | 17:23 |
| Kilos | its getting used to what does what on ubcd thats a bit mind boggling | 17:23 |
| magespawn | right | 17:23 |
| Kilos | dunno if its clone faciltity clones mbr as well | 17:24 |
| Kilos | that would be cool if it did | 17:24 |
| magespawn | mazal: what is recoil?\ | 17:30 |
| mazal | magespawn, it's an app that monitors docs and allows you to search for word inside of docs. | 17:33 |
| mazal | It's either recoil or recoll | 17:33 |
| magespawn | will search | 17:33 |
| mazal | Can't remember the spelling lekker | 17:33 |
| magespawn | recoll | 17:34 |
| magespawn | it is | 17:34 |
