|---|---|---|
| philipballew | fullmoon, can you just cp it in the shell? | 08:45 |
| fullmoon | no | 08:46 |
| philipballew | does ls show it? | 08:46 |
| fullmoon | says same file or folder not existant | 08:46 |
| fullmoon | i tested it with new created folder(empty one) and still didnt work | 08:46 |
| philipballew | so then its not there right? | 08:46 |
| fullmoon | in list it shows it | 08:46 |
| philipballew | in Nautilus or whatever file manager our running? | 08:47 |
| philipballew | studio is xfce now iirc | 08:48 |
| fullmoon | xfce dekstop | 08:48 |
| philipballew | yeah! | 08:49 |
| * philipballew wonders if this is a bug or not | 08:50 | |
| fullmoon | dunno in 10.04 didnt had this problem | 08:50 |
| fullmoon | but switched to new version since its also LTS | 08:50 |
| fullmoon | tried moving with sudo comannd no luck either | 08:51 |
| Unit193 | Did you use proper case and escape spaces, etc? | 08:51 |
| fullmoon | i think so used online tutorial from YT path corected and such | 08:52 |
| fullmoon | tried diffrent spacing etc | 08:52 |
| fullmoon | still no luck | 08:52 |
| Unit193 | Can you give the exact file name and command tried? | 08:53 |

| fullmoon | ok fixed it when you mentioned space i deleted space in folder name and works | 08:54 |
| fullmoon | its strange tho that it doesnt allow move folders with spaces in their names | 08:54 |
| Unit193 | You can, it's just rather than using file folder you use either "file folder" or file\ folder. | 08:55 |
| Unit193 | Hence why I asked if you escaped them. | 08:55 |
| fullmoon | ye just noticed it in dir i never put \ before space but seems ubuntu does put it automaticly | 08:55 |
| fullmoon | ye gave me thinking hehe | 08:56 |
| Unit193 | If you use tab complete. :) | 08:56 |
| fullmoon | thnks Unit193 and phill | 08:56 |
| Unit193 | Sure. | 08:56 |
| fullmoon | but why didnt i had this problem in 10.04?? | 08:56 |
| fullmoon | just wondering about that | 08:57 |
| nlsthzn | o/ all I need assistance setting up dual monitors, one running of discreet gfx (Radeon) and the other screen running of onboard Intel | 12:53 |
| nlsthzn | the screen on the radeon card working well, the intel card not. It only works when I go to a tty and then the Radeon goes blank | 12:54 |
| nlsthzn | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2087963 for some info | 12:55 |
| nlsthzn | or is this better asked in #ubuntu? | 12:55 |
| kg | hi, pre-apology for a wordy question but i am new to ubuntu and somewhat new to linux fs. i've downloaded source for unity, i've built it using pbuilder, so now i have a package to install...but haven't yet installed for fear of the unknown - i am trying to understand as a developer what happens when using dpkg install to the package that are already there? for instance, let's say i modify some code build - but ooops, i was wron | 14:32 |
| raub | kg: AFAIK, you can reinstall the "factory" package over yours | 14:49 |
| kg | thanks - so if i screw something up, just pull from the ppa and reinstall? | 14:51 |
| raub | That's what I would do | 14:51 |
| raub | You can always force it | 14:52 |
| kg | thanks, i'll go with it if thats the convention ( i came from a symbian background where we would have loads of lib versions laying around to swap) | 14:55 |
| yeehi | Updated firmware for a SSD is v important. Will Ubuntu Quantal do this automatically, after installation? Samsung 840 pro | 17:16 |
| escott | yeehi, almost surely not going to be done automatically | 18:32 |
| guest-jdEQeq | i need help getting something done after installing ubuntu 12.04 LTS for the first time. | 21:28 |
| guest-jdEQeq | i can login as guest but my admin account that i created during the install no longer works. | 21:29 |
