[00:00] <xubuntu72w> Anyway, thank you, and goodnight.  It's midnight here, so tempory ID user xubuntu72w (aka Steve)  saying
[00:00] <xubuntu72w> Thank you & goodnight.
[00:01] <drleviathan> goodnight
[00:10] <galacticaboy> night steve
[00:10] <galacticaboy> thanks for the help
[00:10] <galacticaboy> oh hes gone already
[00:10] <knome> what xubuntu72w just described is that he enabled the updates to any versions.. it was set to the "smarter" option to only jump from LTS to LTS
[00:11] <galacticaboy> yeah i should have done that, but you know, im stupid and eager
[00:12] <knome> but technically that upgrade should not break your system like that either
[00:12] <knome> and theoretically
[00:12] <knome> but things happen...
[00:13] <knome> it might be a combination of many
[00:19] <knome> and now.. something completely different
[00:19] <knome> good night all

[09:43] <ssarah> I'm inside my home machine with ssh. If I would have logged in using a shell it would have automounted my partitions. How do I do this via ssh?
[09:44] <zleap> don't partitionsget automounted at start up
[09:44] <zleap> or are these exxernal devices that get plugged in after such as flashdisks
[09:45] <ssarah> they are all internal sata devices
[09:45] <ssarah> if i run ssh -X and run thunar remotely
[09:45] <zleap> i can't see why they would not already be mounted
[09:45] <ssarah> it will list the partition but say "failed to mount"
[09:46] <ssarah> zleap, i'm thinking mounting them is something that happens either at a graphical boot or inside a user routine somewhere
[09:47] <zleap> what is in your fstab and mtab files
[09:48] <zleap> ok if you login normally then connect via ssh those devices would already be mounted
[09:50] <ssarah> hmm
[09:50] <ssarah> i cant login normally
[09:50] <ssarah> was just wondering if can call the thing that mounts them when i log in
[09:50] <zleap> you can add things to .bashrc
[09:51] <zleap> but that will run locally weather you login locally o remotely
[09:51] <zleap> like i said if it mounts when you login directly it is usually automatically mounted before you login
[09:52] <ssarah> In this case it's not. You know what is being called to automount on login?
[09:52] <ssarah> Something must be doing it.
[09:52] <zleap> the system gets that from mtab i think
[09:53] <zleap> as for what calls it ,  not sure
[09:53] <zleap> ok this is a little beyond me,  but i am sure someone in here can help
[09:53] <zleap> i would do cat /etc/mtab
[09:54] <ssarah> i did, but as a quick check, one of my partitions is  called sdb1 in lsblk and has no reference in mtab
[09:54] <ssarah> neither in fstab
[09:55] <zleap> hmm
[09:55] <zleap> ok this is part of my mtab
[09:55] <zleap> /dev/sda1 / ext4 rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered 0 0
[09:56] <ssarah>  /dev/sda3 / ext4 rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered 0 0 <- i have that too but it's just my / linux one
[09:56] <ssarah> I could add the other partitions to fstab, but if there's something in xubuntu that does it already i would like to use it
[09:58] <zleap> ssarah: i ahve asked in #xubuntu if anyone can help, as this is independent of what system you're using maybe ask in #ubuntu-uk as that is more active as a channel
[09:59] <zleap> in the meantime i found a youtube video on the boot process imay review that so i have a better general understanding
[09:59] <ssarah> already asked in #ubuntu thank you zleap
[09:59] <zleap> np
[09:59] <zleap> sorry i can't be much help

[18:45] <aot> Sometimes I have a problem that Power Manager's popups keep on coming in a loop, first "your battery is charging" then "your battery is fully charged". it's a thinkpad laptop. I guess a restart would fix it. anyone heard of this kind of problem?
[18:45] <aot> it's infinite loop
