| krytarik | r4y, btw, I've set it up like shown in the example for "Lucid 10.04" in the guide I linked to in the morning. | 00:03 |
|---|---|---|
| krytarik | That is, with the "$isofile" variable, so that I don't need to change it in two places when I want to boot another ISO. | 00:05 |
| krytarik | *-two- | 00:06 |
| krytarik | Another BTW, be prepared that in the booted Live ISO you can't access the partition the ISO is located on. | 00:11 |
| wytsa | quick question for you guys, is there a setting in 'quickly' that would prevent someone from being able to edit labels? if so where can i find that so i can turn it off | 03:58 |
| holstein | wytsa: what labels? | 03:58 |
| wytsa | like a label for a button | 04:32 |
| wytsa | i was going through the getting started tutorial | 04:32 |
| wytsa | and the point i am to change the label on the button to name it refresh the option is there but it is faded and unable to be selected or changed | 04:32 |
| wytsa | i have tried uninstalling quickly and reinstalling it but have the same issue | 04:33 |
| holstein | wytsa: in unity? | 04:54 |
| holstein | what button? | 04:54 |
| holstein | wytsa: sorry.. i dont do dcc's like that.. just use imagebin and share the screenshot here | 05:13 |
| r4y | krytarik, Thank you for the info and help | 06:01 |
| krytarik | I'm glad that you got that. :) | 06:02 |
| r4y | I knew a tarik in school, but I can't rememeber if his name was spelled the same. His last name was Richards | 06:02 |
| krytarik | I don't know, but my name is completely made up. :) | 06:03 |
| r4y | Well, I should try this then. I will be back. The Kool aid guy, O no, o ya | 06:04 |
| r4y | I got to the grub menu using shift but then it was frozen | 06:19 |
| r4y | Xubuntu was at the bottom of the list | 06:19 |
| r4y | Do the permission need to be changed. Like for instance allow executing file as program? | 06:21 |
| r4y | permissions I meant | 06:21 |
| r4y | own root read write, group root read only, other read only, allow executing file as program not checked | 06:22 |
| r4y | krytarik | 06:23 |

| duanedesign | r4y: i was about to ask for that. Is that boot reapir retrns? | 07:06 |
| r4y | I haven't messed with boot repair with this, I used it to try and fix another hard drive I think | 07:07 |
| r4y | I have one hard drive connected though | 07:07 |
| silversufer | Do all Ethernet adapters work with ubuntu? or is there a specific type I should get or you could recommend? | 07:08 |
| r4y | In the future away from here I need to Google like mad to learn what all the info is in the last link you gave me. I Googled and found this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initrd | 07:08 |

| r4y | Am, I supposed to stick with the default? | 07:15 |
| r4y | Use recommended? | 07:16 |
| r4y | I guess I should make my usb drive into a live version of ubuntu for starters | 07:19 |
| r4y | Um, I have a flash drive problem | 07:20 |
| r4y | I formatted just recently about 30 minutes ago. It was called new Volume ubt now everytime I mount it it is called usb0 and I can't delete or add to it. I made it fat | 07:21 |
| r4y | Ah, I think I understand why but I need to mess with it | 07:24 |
| r4y | https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-linux/+question/157249 | 07:46 |
| r4y | Arg, I am starting to hate myself | 07:48 |
| r4y | Am I supposed to remove all of what was on the first list at the bottom of that link? | 07:49 |
| r4y | Never mind I think I get it | 07:51 |
| r4y | yes, my flash drive works again. | 07:57 |
| r4y | I need to go try something | 07:58 |
| r4y | OK, I don't know of what I did that made the iso work but I am in Xubuntu | 08:41 |
| r4y | I could list the commands I used but I would have to do so from Ubuntu 10.04 | 08:42 |
| r4y | I am not sure what I think of xubuntu | 08:42 |
| duanedesign | hmm | 09:00 |
| duanedesign | r4y: are tou dual booting? | 09:00 |
| r4y | I have one internal hard drive and no other | 09:01 |
| duanedesign | Meamming yo et a choice of which od to run? | 09:01 |
| r4y | yep, either os | 09:01 |
| duanedesign | Ubuntu or Lubuntu? | 09:02 |
| r4y | I am running x and I was using Ubuntu 10 but x is 12 | 09:02 |
| r4y | I think | 09:02 |
| r4y | I don't know how to tell but I think that it is 12.04 of xubuntu | 09:04 |
| duanedesign | Lubuntu is a low resource verion of UBUNTU. If you do not need it I xould judt go with Ubuntu. Lubuntu i another light distro I like lot bettr. | 09:05 |
| duanedesign | Howere it soulds like tou are really clode | 09:05 |
| r4y | I should go back, if you want I can say what I did but I am not sure of what did it | 09:05 |
| r4y | what, sorry | 09:06 |
| r4y | clode? | 09:06 |
| duanedesign | you say you mde the iso work. That mens you installe Xubuntu on your computrt | 09:07 |
| r4y | I need to test out somethings, but I also want to add more to the grub menu,like lubuntu and kubuntu to try out | 09:08 |
| duanedesign | be aref ul unless yo have the space. The most communiway to dis is with virtual ,achines | 09:09 |
| duanedesign | machines* | 09:10 |
| r4y | I am not sure if I like xubuntu just yet. I am pretty happy with Ubuntu 10.04 other then videos on the internet not working right for me regarding flash html5 | 09:10 |
| r4y | html5 works but | 09:10 |
| r4y | flash pepper never worked for me on 10.04 and 12.04 | 09:10 |
| r4y | on google chrome | 09:11 |
| r4y | I really like firefox on top of that | 09:11 |
| r4y | but ha who knows | 09:11 |
| duanedesign | offf wait. I see on problem you are unning 10.04/ Tht is N OLDRELEASE | 09:11 |
| duanedesign | sorry cps | 09:11 |
| r4y | I said 12.04 with pepper flash didn't work under google cgrome for me | 09:12 |
| r4y | chrome I meant | 09:12 |
| r4y | I think however it could have something to do with motherboard but I could be wrong | 09:12 |
| duanedesign | 10.04 is good until April 2013 (Desktop) | 09:13 |
| r4y | I have testing I should do, I had this problem with Ubuntu 10.04 where everytime I tried to log in it would log me out until it finally let me in, then I figured out that this flat screen needed to be set higher then 60 hz | 09:14 |
| r4y | then the problem went away | 09:14 |
| r4y | but I haven't tested pepper flash since | 09:15 |
| r4y | I ended up using flash 10.3 | 09:15 |
| r4y | html5 videos worked unless I had flash 11 installed | 09:15 |
| r4y | That's when it was suggested I try other version of Ubuntu, including upgrading to Ubuntu 12.04 but like I said videos on the internet were still a problem | 09:17 |
| duanedesign | You can upgrade from LTS to LTS. oPEN pckage manager ald sekect Edit > Softare ssources . Select 'Notify of New Ubuntu Versions | 09:21 |
| r4y | I am not sure how my other motherboard would fair regarding all this but it has a big problem where if flash the bios doesn't work then I have to replace it and in order to flash bios I need an 80 pin floppy disk wire andI have 4 40 ipn floppy disk wire, lol, life's just funny like that | 09:22 |
| duanedesign | Next to to run Update manager you will be promted to install 12.04. then from their you can get the latest 11/04. Maybe your bug is fixrd their. | 09:22 |
| r4y | I don't like Ubuntu 12.04 nad as I said the oly problem I want to fix doesn't get fixed when using Ubuntu 12.04 | 09:23 |
| r4y | I am not sure about 11 though | 09:23 |
| r4y | hmm | 09:23 |
| duanedesign | I recomend installing the Proprietart frivers and uninstall the voveau drivers. | 09:23 |
| duanedesign | driveers& | 09:24 |
| duanedesign | ufgnoveau drivers | 09:24 |
| duanedesign | danb | 09:24 |
| duanedesign | noveau drivers | 09:24 |
| duanedesign | that is the open source dricers | 09:24 |
| r4y | There are no drivers under additional drivers to be installed | 09:25 |
| r4y | this motherboard has a built in graphics port | 09:25 |
| r4y | It's an emchaines of all things | 09:25 |
