Slumlord_ | anybody know how to make a bootable usb first should it be fat32 or ntfs | 13:22 |
Slumlord_ | file is over 5.06 gb | 13:24 |
Slumlord_ | i should say over 4.9gb | 13:25 |
bazhang | what iso | 13:25 |
Slumlord_ | windows 7 ultimate iso for drivers | 13:25 |
Slumlord_ | that won't work in linux | 13:25 |
Slumlord_ | and software that won't work in linux | 13:25 |
bazhang | made on what os | 13:25 |
Slumlord_ | xubuntu | 13:25 |
Slumlord_ | 14.04 | 13:25 |
bazhang | fat wont work | 13:26 |
Slumlord_ | are my only options a 8.5 gb dvd? | 13:26 |
Slumlord_ | or will ntfs work | 13:26 |
bazhang | I'd say winusb, but thats probably best to ask for alternatives in the windows chanbnel | 13:27 |
bazhang | !winusb | 13:27 |
ubottu | WinUSB is a tool for preparing bootable Windows Instalation USBs. Please see http://en.congelli.eu/prog_info_winusb.html for instructions on installation and use. #ubuntu does *not* provide support for this tool, so please do not ask for help here if it doesn't work for you. | 13:27 |
cfhowlett | Slumlord_, ask the #windows channel | 13:27 |
Slumlord_ | ok i was not sure | 13:27 |
Slumlord_ | thanks | 13:27 |
Slumlord_ | sorry for my mistake | 13:28 |

sima_ | I have trouble shutting down new pc | 14:23 |
sima_ | It has Virtualbox and teamViewer instaleld | 14:23 |
sima_ | It just turns xubuntu round and round forever, neve shutting down | 14:24 |
sima_ | For some reason I have 2 boot options named ubuntu in EFI?? | 14:24 |
sima_ | Why systme dows not shut dow? it is H81 motherboard | 14:24 |
sima_ | oh yes, it is XUbuntu 14.04.3 LTS 64bit | 14:27 |
sima_ | I would also like to have few words woth the guy that REPEATEDLY select broken windows manager theme for Xubuntu, that makes changing size of Xubuntu windows PAIN | 14:37 |
drc | sima_: He's here...put your money where your mouth is. | 14:39 |
cfhowlett | sima, you're crossposting. choose ONE channel ... | 14:40 |
drc | Not saying he'll bother answering an obviouos troll, but you can try. | 14:40 |
sima_ | drc, I use xubuntu from 2006 and this is not my default username on freenode and I am at the user solving problem. | 14:41 |
sima_ | so p[lease watch your language | 14:41 |
sima_ | because you disabled several xubuntu past releases basic functionality | 14:41 |
sima_ | cfhowlett, yes, ok then, power problem is universal, i know. ok | 14:42 |
drc | 1) I'm not the one you want to talk to, 2) I don't really care who or what you think you are. | 14:42 |
sima_ | drc, then identify who is without hassle if not asked. thanks | 14:43 |
drc | OK, time to stop feeding the troll. Out | 14:43 |
sima_ | drc, ok, if you don't stop askling new people coming to channel a bad words, I would be forced to tell you to re-read community code of conduct and stop BS | 14:44 |
cfhowlett | guys: knock it off. let's move on. | 14:45 |
drc | cfhowlett: mea culpa | 14:45 |
sima_ | so who is the guy that broke xubuntu window smanager window resizing in last several releases | 14:46 |
sima_ | it is all about choosing default theme for Xubuntu desktop, | 14:46 |
sima_ | where resizing window is almost impossible in lower edges of window, because window border is too thin etc | 14:47 |
cfhowlett | sima_, direct your development comments the xubuntu-dev mailing list. developers rarely appear in the user irc channels. | 14:47 |
sima_ | cfhowlett, fair answer. will do when I get time. This is jus needed to be said because it frustrates me for a long time on new installs everywhere. | 14:48 |
sima_ | I had put acpi=force in grub, wish me luck.. | 14:49 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Hello, I was wondering how the thumbnails in .thumbnails get their name.... | 15:33 |

Walliski | how come? | 16:35 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Because I want to add one to the mix. | 16:36 |
=== flocculant is now known as Guest37620 | ||
Walliski | Hmm | 16:43 |
Walliski | I dont have any xubuntu installation to look at, so I can only guess. | 16:43 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Do you know how it works on Ubuntu? | 16:44 |
Walliski | I saw that Nautilus used md5 hex | 16:44 |
Walliski | Xubuntu uses Thunar doesn't it? | 16:45 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Yep. | 16:45 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | http://askubuntu.com/questions/199110/how-can-i-instruct-nautilus-to-pre-generate-thumbnails | 16:48 |

Stephanethebegin | Hi ! I will like to know how to encrypt a share folder called /data i would use with 2 linux distros. and if it is possible... | 18:48 |
Stephanethebegin | for each distro I wil have a /folder, a /home folder and a swap | 18:49 |
morf | Stephanethebegin: well generally as far as the distros will be able to use the encryption you are planning to use it's viable option | 18:58 |
morf | if you want to use it at the same time... i'm not sure ;) | 18:59 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | You don't need 2 swaps.... | 19:00 |
morf | good point | 19:00 |
morf | you may want to use something networking based instead ... nfs or sshfs or whatever is cool enough for you | 19:00 |
morf | he didn't specified if the distros will be running at the same time or not ;) | 19:00 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | I don't know enough of her situation... but it sounds like she is wanting a ~dualboot~. | 19:01 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Excuse me... I thought I read Stephanie.... | 19:01 |
morf | well stephanethe maybe stephany | 19:02 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | *swap* she for he (or OP) | 19:02 |
Stephanethebegin | no.. Stephane... :) | 19:02 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Cool. | 19:02 |
Stephanethebegin | no... I have a laptp with windows 10 and alongside Xubuntu and want to install anotehr linux distro.. | 19:03 |
Stephanethebegin | and I will use only 1 at a time | 19:03 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | So, a triple boot? | 19:03 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Same storage medium? | 19:03 |
Stephanethebegin | johnny.. yes, a kind of... | 19:03 |
Stephanethebegin | but my share foldr will only be for my inux distros... | 19:04 |
Stephanethebegin | not for windows.. | 19:04 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Yeah, ok. | 19:04 |
Stephanethebegin | i have encrypted my home folder when intalling xubuntu... but how to do it for the share folder? | 19:04 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Idk.... | 19:05 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Are you still trying to map out your final partitioning? | 19:05 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Or do you have all the partitions you need? | 19:06 |
Stephanethebegin | yes I have Johnny | 19:06 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | So, you only want your /home partition encrypted? | 19:07 |
Stephanethebegin | I have 4: / - /home - swap and /data.... | 19:07 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | (I.e., that's all that is lacking? | 19:07 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | What is on /data | 19:07 |
Stephanethebegin | on /data are my data I want to share with my other linux distro... | 19:08 |
Stephanethebegin | personal data... | 19:08 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Yeah. | 19:08 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | So, /data is where you'll be mounting the partition that contains your other distro besides xubuntu.... | 19:09 |
Stephanethebegin | it is a ext4 partition I created to store personal data and if one day I want to format my hard drive I don't need to format this partition... | 19:10 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Ok, I see. | 19:10 |
Stephanethebegin | so... any suggestion?? | 19:11 |
Stephanethebegin | morf... by the way.. I wanted to write Stephane the beginner... but not enough space... :) :) | 19:14 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | I figured! | 19:15 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Stephanethebegin: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/4-reasons-encrypt-linux-partitions/ | 19:17 |
Stephanethebegin | Johnny... thanks for the link but I already read it ! | 19:19 |
Stephanethebegin | and still want encryption for my share folder... :) :) | 19:19 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Ok. | 19:25 |
Stephanethebegin | johnny... any idea? or could I use Truecrypt (or an equivalent because I know what happened to truecrypt) to encrypt my share folder?? | 19:27 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | This looks like it will work, if /data is a partition mounted to a folder.... | 19:29 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemHowto3 | 19:29 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | If /data isn't a partition which has been mounted, then ecryptfs should work. | 19:39 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Stephanethebegin:http://www.howtogeek.com/116032/how-to-encrypt-your-home-folder-after-installing-ubuntu/ | 19:39 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Stephanethebegin: Just in case the lack of space makes it not work.... ^ | 19:41 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | I just realized that is a home dir specific howto, sorry. | 19:45 |
Stephanethebegin | no problm johnny | 19:47 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Thx. | 19:47 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FolderEncryption | 19:47 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | That looks like the real deal. | 19:48 |
Stephanethebegin | I am not sure... | 19:50 |
Stephanethebegin | becasue it is the all partition I want to encrypt.. | 19:50 |
Stephanethebegin | I guess th only solution I hav is to try... :) | 19:50 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Ok, I was getting the impression that I got the wrong impression. ;-P | 19:51 |
Stephanethebegin | Thanks fro your time Johnny.. | 19:51 |
Stephanethebegin | I will read the links you gave me and I will try... | 19:51 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemHowto3 | 19:53 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | That one is your best bet... | 19:54 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Instead of "sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/hda3 home" | 19:54 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Use sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/hda3 data | 19:54 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | And from there, just keep substituting "home" for "data" | 19:55 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | You know what I'm meaning, right? | 19:55 |
Stephanethebegin | yes | 19:56 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Oh, btw, you will loose your data, unless you back it up on a separate partition. | 19:56 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | I don't have need of it... so I've never tried it. | 19:56 |
Stephanethebegin | it's ok because for the moment I have no data on the share folder.. | 19:56 |
Stephanethebegin | but i will try your solution and will let you know how it goes.. | 19:57 |
Stephanethebegin | thanks a lot ! | 19:57 |
