[08:09] <nightmare___> i asked a question at 00:45 and its now 1:08
[08:09] <nightmare___> at least thats the time thingy on the side of the irc
[08:09] <nightmare___> you know anything about burning iso's ri?
[08:09] <Ri> have you used demaon tools
[08:10] <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
[08:11] <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
[08:12] <nightmare___> hold on ima send you apm
[08:24] <geirha> should just be to right-click the iso and select "burn to disc" (or something like that)
[08:25] <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
[08:26] <geirha> what extensions do the other files have?
[08:26] <nightmare___> w7_with_sp1_RTM_WzLogo.jpg
[08:27] <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
[08:28] <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
[08:29] <nightmare___> this was in the txt file i will link the name of
[08:29] <nightmare___> 0xD236FD70	7601.17514.101119-1850_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
[08:30] <nightmare___> well im using the brasero disk burner
[08:30] <nightmare___> do you have any idea how to lower the write speed
[08:31] <nightmare___> i was told to write it at the lowest speed possable
[08:34] <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.
[08:35] <nightmare___> how do i verify the disk
[08:35] <geirha> There should be an option for that too iirc
[08:37] <nightmare___> well i started the burning
[08:38] <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
[08:39] <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
[08:40] <geirha> nightmare___: The windows installer will happily do that for you
[08:40] <nightmare___> ok thanks geirha
[08:42] <nightmare___> i just hope this works
[11:45] <joelataylor> hi - I was hoping to get some clarification on ubuntu's 11.04 apache config for vhosts
[11:46] <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
[11:47] <joelataylor> is it standard to disable the default site when enabling new vhosts?
[15:54] <molensis> any beginners here?
[16:04] <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?
[16:05] <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
[16:56] <geirha> MacGuges: He can select it on the login screen
[16:57] <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
[16:58] <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.
[17:02] <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?
[17:03] <geirha> make sure mesg is set to y. man mesg
