ubottuaustin6598: In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key00:39
austin6598Yay! Krytarik, thanks00:40

mparillomeaning you do not have a variety of sizes to choose from, or when you pick one, nothing happens?01:30

Osirez> Open terminal04:51
Osirez> type: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair04:51

SmilexI'm currently trying kubuntu from a flash drive, and it gets stuck at times. Is there anyway for me to check if this is because it is running on a flash drive, or it if it doesn't like some hardware of mine?20:03
bpromptSmilex:    what's your cpu speed?20:05
Smilexbprompt: what do you mean?20:05
BluesKajit could be the graphics card/gpu , but difficult o know for sure20:05
bpromptSmilex:    chip speed, 1.2ghz single-core, 2.3ghz dual?  1.9 quad?20:05
Smilexbprompt: Intel I5 4th generation 4 cores20:06
BluesKajnothing wrong thee20:07
SmilexTwo Nvidia 9800GT20:07

SmilexMy very old antenna based PCI wireless card malfunctioned after being on 2 minutes20:08
Smilexcurrently using mobile tethering20:08
SmilexBut I'm thinking it did some disk writes, because it seems to have stopped now20:09
Smilexsorry for wasting your times20:09
bpromptSmilex:   intel i5 4th quad, meaning, it has around 6gbs or more ddr3, a fast nvidia gpu, with possibly 250mbs of ram, so can't be the hardware, is likely just the usb 2.0 bottleneck, I'm sure your machine has an usb3.0 port possibly, but for the usb3.0 speed to be utilized, the usb stick has to also be usb3.0, so is likely a usb 2.0 stick and/or a usb 2.0 port, and thus usb 2.0 bottlenecks, thus the slowdown20:10
Smilexbprompt: yeah you're probably right20:11
