| Ri | have you used demaon tools | 08:09 |
| nightmare___ | no im like a super noob with ubuntu | 08:10 |
| Ri | the lite version is free | 08:10 |
| nightmare___ | im trying to burn windows 7 | 08:10 |
| nightmare___ | onto a dve | 08:10 |
| nightmare___ | dvd-d | 08:10 |
| Ri | hhmm | 08:10 |
| nightmare___ | becouse im a gamer and like all my games dont work for ubuntu | 08:10 |
| nightmare___ | i got the files | 08:10 |
| nightmare___ | but dont got a clue were to go from there | 08:10 |
| nightmare___ | there is a iso file and some other txt files | 08:11 |
| Ri | so you want to transfer your files from Ubuntu to windows via making a iso on a dvd | 08:11 |
| nightmare___ | hold on ima send you apm | 08:12 |
| geirha | should just be to right-click the iso and select "burn to disc" (or something like that) | 08:24 |
| nightmare___ | there are other files withen the folder that the .iso is in | 08:25 |
| nightmare___ | and i only got 1 shot at this | 08:25 |
| nightmare___ | so i wanted to make completly sure i get it right | 08:25 |
| geirha | what extensions do the other files have? | 08:26 |
| nightmare___ | w7_with_sp1_RTM_WzLogo.jpg | 08:26 |
| nightmare___ | thats a picture what as in the folder | 08:27 |
| nightmare___ | there there is some txt files names | 08:27 |
| nightmare___ | 7601.17514.101119-1850_x64fre_client_en-us_Retail_HomePremium-GRMCHPXFRER_EN_DVD.iso.crc.txt | 08:27 |
| nightmare___ | thats one of the text file names | 08:27 |
| geirha | ok, jpg is probably just a disc-cover that you can print to a sticker to put on the burned disc afterwards. | 08:28 |
| nightmare___ | there are a total of 1 picture | 08:28 |
| nightmare___ | and 4 txt files | 08:28 |
| nightmare___ | this was in the txt file i will link the name of | 08:29 |
| nightmare___ | 0xD236FD707601.17514.101119-1850_x64fre_client_en-us_Retail_HomePremium-GRMCHPXFRER_EN_DVD.iso | 08:29 |
| geirha | Well, it's only the iso you want to burn, the rest is various documentation | 08:29 |
| nightmare___ | ok | 08:29 |
| nightmare___ | i hope this works | 08:29 |
| nightmare___ | well im using the brasero disk burner | 08:30 |
| nightmare___ | do you have any idea how to lower the write speed | 08:30 |
| nightmare___ | i was told to write it at the lowest speed possable | 08:31 |
| geirha | I just right click an iso, select the "burn to disc" (I don't remember the exact wording of the menu choice), then it pops up a dialog where I can select which drive to burn to (if there are more than one) and at what speed. | 08:34 |
| nightmare___ | how do i verify the disk | 08:35 |
| geirha | There should be an option for that too iirc | 08:35 |
| nightmare___ | well i started the burning | 08:37 |
| Ri | good luck | 08:38 |
| nightmare___ | and its making a checksum file | 08:38 |
| nightmare___ | i hope this works | 08:38 |
| Ri | well its time for me to get 3 hours of sleep before i have to zero hour T_T | 08:38 |
| nightmare___ | well last thing for yall' | 08:39 |
| nightmare___ | how do i unformat my hard drive | 08:39 |
| nightmare___ | basically i wish to erase it | 08:39 |
| nightmare___ | so i can use this boot disk | 08:39 |
| geirha | nightmare___: The windows installer will happily do that for you | 08:40 |
| nightmare___ | ok thanks geirha | 08:40 |
| nightmare___ | i just hope this works | 08:42 |

| joelataylor | hi - I was hoping to get some clarification on ubuntu's 11.04 apache config for vhosts | 11:45 |
| joelataylor | I've defined a new vhost in the sites-available dir, yet it never seems to be referenced because the default site always catches the requests | 11:46 |
| joelataylor | is it standard to disable the default site when enabling new vhosts? | 11:47 |

| molensis | any beginners here? | 15:54 |
| MacGuges | I've installed the lubuntu-desktop on my dad's ubuntu system. Now that those packages have installed, how does he switch to running lubuntu and lxde? | 16:04 |
| MacGuges | I've got a sprained ankle, so I need to give him instructions for things I can't do over ssh. | 16:05 |
| MacGuges | unity3d has appeared too unstable since he'd installed 12.10 | 16:05 |
| geirha | MacGuges: He can select it on the login screen | 16:56 |
| MacGuges | geirha: thanks | 16:57 |
| geirha | In the standard Ubuntu 12.10 login screen, that'll be a small round icon at the top right of the password box | 16:57 |
| MacGuges | actually he's in lubuntu, thanks anyway. Now I'm testing talk.. I'd like to use it for a simple conversation I can establish with him while I'm ssh'd into his machine. | 16:58 |
| MacGuges | something's not right with talkd. when we run talk, no notification appears from talkd, while talk says "waiting for invitation on user's machine". any ideas? | 17:02 |
| geirha | make sure mesg is set to y. man mesg | 17:03 |
