totally-new-userhello :)22:06
JonathanDHey.22:07
totally-new-userSo I'm dual booting Windows 7 ult and Ubuntu precise pangolin and was wondering if22:07
totally-new-userlol hey again JonathanD22:07
JonathanD(again) :)22:07
JonathanDtotally-new-user: you'll find I am everywhere.22:07
totally-new-useris your username a Doctor Destiny reference? JonathanD22:07
JonathanDIt is not.22:07
totally-new-userah22:07
totally-new-useranyway22:08
totally-new-user"/etc/default/grub"   you say... hmm22:08
JonathanDI think so.22:08
totally-new-userthrough the file manager or terminal?22:08
JonathanDwell, you're new to ubuntu I gather, so use the gui text editor :)22:09
totally-new-useri see, what language is this grub file written in?22:10
totally-new-userC?22:10
JonathanDi's plain text.22:10
JonathanDthere should be a timeout value in it.22:10
totally-new-userGRUB_DEFAULT=0 #GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true GRUB_TIMEOUT=10 GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian` GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""22:11
totally-new-userohh that didnt paste as expected lol22:11
totally-new-userprobably22:11
totally-new-userchange "GRUB_TIMEOUT=10"  ey?22:11
JonathanDYup22:12
totally-new-userdoes setting it to "0"  make it start instantly?22:13
JonathanDI haven't tried it22:13
totally-new-userah I'm dual booting on a 500GB  4GB Ram  somewhat old inspiron laptop22:14
totally-new-userI'll just set it to 30, more than enough time to test stuff out.  or maybe zero if i find out that means no timeout time or something22:15
totally-new-userso to anyone else here22:15
totally-new-usermy issue was just adjusting the main boot screen more to my liking22:16
JonathanDso you know, if you want to re-arrange it...22:16
JonathanDyou'll find windows is not in the list22:16
totally-new-userso it starts up and the BIOS screen goes and then the purple Ubuntu boot menu with the boot options, normal Ubuntu being at the top and Windows at the bottom22:16
totally-new-userhm why isn't the command "vbeinfo" working when I type it into the terminal line?22:18
totally-new-userdo i need to install something?22:19
totally-new-userhmm and i also can't save the grub file, says i need permission but I am the only user and the admin22:20
totally-new-userusing gedit22:20
totally-new-user*save the changes to grub file22:20
JonathanDyou need to sudo it, probably.22:21
JonathanDI don't often sudo gui things, so I'm not 100% sure how to do that properly.22:21
totally-new-useri see...  what would i need to type into terminal for sudo access to the grub?22:22
totally-new-usersomething like...    "cd /etc/default"22:22
totally-new-user?22:22
JonathanDyou can try nano, it's a pretty user friendly CLI text editor22:23
JonathanDsudo nano /etc/default/grub22:23
totally-new-useroh wow okay22:24
totally-new-userso i've changed the 10 to 30.... now what?   exit and run "update-grub" ?22:25
totally-new-useror save it while in nano22:25
totally-new-userwhat does "^X"   mean?22:27
JonathanDctrl x22:29
totally-new-useri see, so upper left says "modified"   so i ctrl x     and then "update-grub"?22:29
JonathanDyes22:32
totally-new-usersweet22:32
