[16:38] okay busy with install and reinstall [16:38] actually while you there just tick mark all upgrades [16:39] It looks like the ubuntu logo and it was to the right of the package name. I think it indicated that i was already installed [16:39] that will show if something isnt upgraded [16:40] oh those with that red ubuntu logo are official packages [16:40] are all of them upgrades? or do I click on them to check? [16:40] nope [16:40] its stuff you only tick if you use that program [16:40] Okay there are no upgrades [16:41] cool [16:41] you know about your 4 workspaces? [16:41] I have seen it yes [16:42] you can leave stuff working on one and do other stuff on others [16:42] saves the minimising thing [16:43] Everything is open in 1 work space. Can I move it somehow or do I have to close and open again? [16:43] i havent worked that out yet on old ubuntu you could drag them to other space [16:44] just open next job on another one [16:44] k [16:44] i use 10 workspaces [16:44] hehe [16:44] had to sukkel a while to sort that out [16:45] if you use the workspace switcher you can drag them to other workspaces [16:45] Does not look like I can drag, but not a problem atm [16:45] does yours work? [16:45] ya this new one dont do it anymore [16:45] I does, but not the dragging [16:46] mine does :o [16:46] i'm on 12.04 though...

[16:49] Probably looking at the wrong place [16:50] i see all drives when i click home [16:50] try the Disk Utility app [16:50] you will see all drives in there even if they're not mounted afaik [16:50] Not sure. In Peppermint there was utility app, but I don't see it here [16:50] where is the automount thing [16:50] oh, maybe you need to install it [16:51] okay I typed in the dash area and it is there [16:51] type disk in dash [16:51] disk utility will show if its installed [16:51] hehe [16:51] I see both drives and both rom's [16:52] ok so then its hidden for some reason [16:52] Cantide, fix it [16:52] haha [16:52] oh there is show hidden [16:52] hey, i am a n00b myself :'( [16:52] in that home window [16:53] actually above it in the top taskbar [16:53] It shows my 2TB as free unallocated space? It is full off data? [16:53] under view there should be a show hidden goodie [16:55] Cantide, when i open home i see all my drives and partitions on the left [16:55] so do i [16:55] why dont he? [16:55] idk :( [16:55] it could be that it is not mounted [16:55] which can be done through the disk utility [16:55] tell him how please [16:56] My 80gb with ubuntu shows mounted, but it says my 2TB has no partition :( [16:56] select the drive on the left [16:57] HecticZA, is the drive working? 'o' [16:57] It was before I installed ubuntu? [16:57] :S [16:57] oh [16:57] ah... no -.- [16:57] That doesnt sound good [16:58] fsck it maybe [16:58] maybe [16:58] i don't know exactly, so i don't want to give the wrong advice [16:58] sudo fsck -p i think it was check first [16:58] Unfortunately I have to go now. Will check on the net tomorrow [16:59] superfly, can you give advice please [16:59] ok tomorrow [16:59] *advise [16:59] HecticZA, good luck :/ [16:59] advise is the verb [16:59] oh ya [16:59] advice is the noun [16:59] ah [16:59] you're correcting Kilos, not me :p [16:59] Cantide: yes [16:59] I really don't hope that info is gone, but I was carefull not too touch it [16:59] but he was also right :) [16:59] Anyways thx guys.

[17:02] it's a partitioning live cd [17:03] aha [17:03] that's handy [17:06] i also lost what was on a drive once when installing and i think crashkid gave me a fsck command and it found everything again [17:06] fsck -p or -p [17:06] he has lotsa data on there he dont wanna lose [17:06] i usually disconnect all drives except the one i am installing on, just to be safe [17:07] ya me too now [17:08] gparted can lose stuff quick too if you tick wrong place [17:08] yeah [17:08] that's why i don't like to offer advice on such matters [17:09] i would feel terrible if i caused someone to lose their data [17:09] that fsck command fixed mine [17:09] just can remember the goodie to use [17:09] cant [17:11] fsck -f /dev/sdb1 [17:11] there yo go [17:11] :p [17:12] tell HecticZA that >.< [17:12] dunno where i got p from [17:12] i had to hunt for that [17:12] was lying in maverick on desktop [17:12] hehe [17:13] p?

[17:22] i only know the chown way to take control [17:22] hmm [17:22] i don't know about it [17:22] normally not a whole drive i think [17:29] train probs again monday superfly they say its gonna rain [17:29] -_- [17:29] i hope not [17:29] eish [17:44] hi nlsthzn [17:44] hiya uncle Kilos [18:25] hi jmagunduni [18:26] hi ,kilos .i have a problem with my network manager applet. It disappear sometimes . please help :-( [18:26] oh my [18:27] lemme see what google says [18:27] 13.04 hey? [18:27] yes [18:29] when does it disappear === Cantide is now known as CanAFKish [18:31] jmagunduni, look at this link [18:31] http://askubuntu.com/questions/57292/nm-applets-vpn-menu-disappears [18:31] i hope thats it [18:38] Kilos: whenever i am connected to the internet.I tried goggling but couldn't find any solution , so i was thinking perhaps someone in this group have came across the same problem and resolved it.The other problem is that i occasionally get disconnected from the internet.I am using my cellphone to connect to the internet"via Bluetooth". [18:39] http://askubuntu.com/questions/57292/nm-applets-vpn-menu-disappears [18:39] maybe try reinstall nm-applet too [18:43] jmagunduni1, do you have synaptic installed [18:43] Grrr >:-O how will I connect to the internet if I re-install/un-install nm-applet :-(.Anyway thanks Kilos, i will have a look at the forum and probably get back to you if the problem persists .Thanks [18:43] try with synaptic [18:44] hello hello [18:44] type in network at the top and right click reinstall all thats installed there [18:44] hi kbmonkey [18:44] thanks kilos,will try that. [18:45] hi Kbmonkey whats up? [18:45] nananana-weekend [18:45] hehe [18:46] jmagunduni1, if you use the -d option with apt-get it will download nm-applet packages beforehand so you can reinstall it while offline :) [18:46] synaptic has this option too [18:47] kbmonkey :give me an example , I am not a tech geek , I'm just a normal end user [18:48] :-) [18:50] let me look at synaptic... [18:50] hmm, strange, did that option fall away? :P [18:52] ah okay here is how it works jmagunduni1 ... [18:52] kbmonkey:yes. [18:52] when you do a system update it will download the latest version of all your apps as installers (.deb files) [18:52] those live on your pc for a while, so you dont need to re-download them next time [18:53] so if your system is up to date, you will already have a copy of the nm-applet installer :) [18:53] oh ok , how do i fix it then.:-) [18:54] do you want to reinstall nm-applet? [18:54] yes. [18:55] no problem. removing it wont disconnect you because your connection is handled by network-manager [18:56] why not try to reconfigure it first: sudo dpkg-reconfigure nm-applet [18:56] that does the same as removing + reinstall it [18:56] you run that in a terminal window by the way :) [18:57] oh ok , let me try then .:-$ [18:58] I scrolled up but am not too clear on what your problem is jmagunduni1... [18:58] is it that you keep getting disconnected, or something to do with vpn? [18:58] kbmonkey: i got the following message. dpkg-query: package 'nm-applet' is not installed and no information is available [18:58] Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files, [18:58] and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents. [18:58] /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: nm-applet is not installed [18:59] okay, you are on a latest version of ubuntu then? Perhaps the latest ubuntu uses something else instead of nm-applet, and if that is the case I cannot help you there :( [19:00] for what it is worth, I am on 3G and also get disconnected at least every hour :p [19:01] kbmonkey: dont worry thanks for trying , I will try to Log a call at the Ubuntu forums. [19:01] :-) [19:02] just use synaptic to reinstall every network related [19:02] heh. the ubuntu forums are even less helpful, and full of people who don't know what they're talking about. [19:02] I never got bluetooth working either, guess yu got further than I did with that. I use usb cables for that :) [19:02] superfly: hehe [19:03] is there not a setting for your connection to reconnect when if drops? [19:03] ya its in nm [19:10] Guys last week i struggled to get my Skype video to work, and then i went through some forums ,got the solution and now its working perfectly :-). so i am sure that the answer to my problem is lying somewhere in the internet , I guess I have to dig deeper.:-( [19:11] you will find in synaptic most packages have small downloads still to get [19:11] updates most likely [19:11] so first do sudo apt-get update [19:14] how is the connection quality jmagunduni1 ? [19:14] and reinstalling does all the configuring for you [19:15] kbmonkey:very good I download large files , Skype etc . [19:17] but it disconnects randomly? [19:18] kbmonkey: after an Hour or so.. [19:18] night all. sleep tight [19:18] nite Kilos [19:18] jmagunduni1, good luck [19:18] kilos: Thank you for giving me a helping, you are the reason i love/use open source software.the spirit of Community . [19:19] hand [19:19] you welcome soory i couldnt help more [19:19] sorry [19:19] same happens to mine jmagunduni1. it is usb but also a simcard. It's the phone networks, it can't be helped :( [19:19] Kilos: cheers! [19:20] kbmonkey: yes maybe i should start using ADSL.. [19:21] I wish for that too :) [19:23] kbmonkey: hehe :-D.which version of Ubuntu are you using? [19:24] the last version I have is 12.04 jmagunduni1, but currently I am using crunchbang linux [19:25] It is essentially Debian with the Openbox window manager === Spaceghost is now known as Guest7993 [19:28] mm , i haven't heard of that before.i am using Ubuntu 13.04. very cool . except of some few flaws.Dude ,have you ever tried WPS office? [19:29] I installed it. [19:29] it's interesting, pretty, but I'm actually perfectly happy with LibreOffice [19:29] never heard of it [19:30] I spend most of my time in text editors, for the rest abiword suits me well :) [19:31] so many options... beautiful [19:31] superfly : but its cool.I like it.
