| Noboru55 | i dont like that, it was my fault .. writing images | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Noboru55 | tomreyn but, if possible could you explain a little to me about the zero and the fsck, if is there some differente between one and other | 00:02 |
| Noboru55 | i know the fsck check for errors... but what about the zero | 00:02 |
| genii | Using /dev/zero as input file to write from effectively blanks the drive, which can make it accessible again for partitioning and formatting | 00:14 |
| genii | This can be useful if for instance you dd'd the image of a smaller drive onto it ( which you no longer need now ) and it thinks it's still the same size as the old drive | 00:15 |
| genii | fsck is to check the integrity of a filesystem on a drive which already has been partioned and the partion has been formatted with some filesystem | 00:16 |
| * genii wanders back to tinkering with other things | 00:17 | |
| Noboru55 | genii something weird is happening here | 00:25 |
| Noboru55 | genii i was writeng linux images in my usb stick, but today it is not possible to do, the dd doesnt copy it right i cant get boot | 00:25 |
| Noboru55 | genii gparted create partitions but.. i can only copy songs and pictures, files.... | 00:26 |
| Noboru55 | genii if i try to dd other image linux, it gives me an error... when try to open the usb stick i got an error with strange caracters and i/o error message | 00:26 |
| Noboru55 | i guess the zero could solve this.. not sure... sorry i cannot explain it better hope u understood me | 00:27 |
| Noboru55 | in my case, maybe fsck will not fix... not sure... but if i try to create and erase partitions in cfdisk everything looks right... but only can use the usb stick to files... cant write image or use dd... | 00:28 |
| Noboru55 | what did i do ? :( | 00:28 |
| Noboru55 | for example. i copied songs to the usb stick. its ok, everything is there... i tried to dd an image... i tried write image in unetbootin too.. when i do this, the usb show empty... | 00:31 |
| Noboru55 | so i think its broken, but not sure | 00:31 |

| astraljava | lighterowl:Oh, got it. :D | 06:47 |
| lighterowl | astraljava: ^_^ | 07:15 |
| lighterowl | it's not that I don't like the language. it's just so different to any of the ones that I speak, I guess my brain just doesn't keep up with it or something. | 07:15 |
| lighterowl | but I remember feeling very uncomfortable due to this while staying in Paris for a short while. | 07:16 |
| astraljava | Right, I understand. I only know a few words and phrases, but absolutely adore the language. Would love to learn more, time permitting. | 07:23 |
| test23233 | hello | 07:35 |
| lighterowl | hi test23233 | 07:36 |
| lighterowl | well that was rude | 07:36 |
| astraljava | Maybe [s]he realized not being hi[gh], and left to take care of such unfortunate situation. | 07:42 |

| ich26 | how long does it usually take to install xubuntu ? | 12:39 |
| diogenes_ | ich26, it all depens on your HDD, even with the slowest one it won't take longer than 20 min (assuming there are no bad sectors and the HDD is not dying). | 12:40 |
| diogenes_ | one more thing to consider, if you tick to update during the installation then it will take considerably longer. | 12:40 |
| ich26 | this is strange...my installation is running since more than 2 hours | 12:41 |
| diogenes_ | ich26, did you tick 'update during the installation'? | 12:41 |
| ich26 | there was no option like that... its an installation from ra1nstorm. it should help to jailbreak iphones | 12:42 |
| ich26 | sometimes i see messages during the installation process. last one is xubuntu kernel:[12961.062357] nouveau 0000:02:00.0: therm: temparatur (90 C) hit the fanboost treshold | 12:46 |
| ich26 | anybody know what that means ? | 12:46 |
| diogenes_ | ich26, did you boot live by clicking 'try' or you went with the 'install now'? | 12:47 |
| Alabalistic | Do you use Virtualbox | 12:48 |
| ich26 | i had a setup.exe in windows... this was downloading an installing something after reboot i see installation screen of xubuntu | 12:49 |
| Alabalistic | ich26, you need to explain few things | 12:50 |
| Alabalistic | are you instaling fresh distro, or you are using some virtualisation | 12:51 |
| diogenes_ | i don't think it even has anything to do with the topic. | 12:51 |
| ich26 | during the installation in windows i was able to choose the size of the partion. i choosed 64gb | 12:53 |
| ich26 | after that i had to reboot and thats where i am now | 12:53 |
| Alabalistic | there is very little linux involved here as far as I understand you | 12:54 |
| ich26 | sorry for my poor knowledge about that | 12:55 |
| ich26 | after reboot i can choose wich os i want to start...windows or xubuntu | 12:56 |
| ich26 | if i choose xubuntu i cant do anything than wait for finishing the "installation" I DO THIS SINCE ALMOST 3H | 12:57 |
| Alabalistic | ich26, how is the temperature of your pc | 13:00 |
| Alabalistic | is it hot, how many ram do you have, what is the CPU | 13:00 |
| ich26 | its cold, 8gb ram, amd cpu | 13:02 |
| Gregor0 | hello, i just installed Xubuntu, i found a way how to map the super key to open the whisker menu (xfce4-popup-whiskermenu), is there a similar executable to map Super-d to show the desktop | 15:47 |
| diogenes_ | Gregor0, settings > window manager > keyboard > show desktop | 15:56 |
| Gregor0 | weird, i changed it back and forth and removed the binding i made in the keyboardsettings (application shortcuts). it works now, thanks | 16:04 |
