[00:00] <Noboru55> i dont like that, it was my fault .. writing images
[00:02] <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
[00:14] <genii> Using /dev/zero as input file to write from effectively blanks the drive, which can make it accessible again for partitioning and formatting
[00:15] <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
[00:16] <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
[00:17]  * genii wanders back to tinkering with other things
[00:25] <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
[00:26] <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
[00:27] <Noboru55> i guess the  zero could solve this.. not sure... sorry i cannot explain it better hope u understood me
[00:28] <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 ? :(
[00:31] <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
[06:47] <astraljava> lighterowl:Oh, got it. :D
[07:15] <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.
[07:16] <lighterowl> but I remember feeling very uncomfortable due to this while staying in Paris for a short while.
[07:23] <astraljava> Right, I understand. I only know a few words and phrases, but absolutely adore the language. Would love to learn more, time permitting.
[07:35] <test23233> hello
[07:36] <lighterowl> hi test23233
[07:36] <lighterowl> well that was rude
[07:42] <astraljava> Maybe [s]he realized not being hi[gh], and left to take care of such unfortunate situation.
[12:39] <ich26> how long does it usually take to install xubuntu ?
[12:40] <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.
[12:41] <ich26> this is strange...my installation is running since more than 2 hours
[12:41] <diogenes_> ich26, did you tick 'update during the installation'?
[12:42] <ich26> there was no option like that... its an installation from ra1nstorm. it should help to jailbreak iphones
[12:46] <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 ?
[12:47] <diogenes_> ich26, did you boot live by clicking 'try' or you went with the 'install now'?
[12:48] <Alabalistic> Do you use Virtualbox
[12:49] <ich26> i had a setup.exe in windows... this was downloading an installing something after reboot i see installation screen of xubuntu
[12:50] <Alabalistic> ich26, you need to explain few things
[12:51] <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.
[12:53] <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
[12:54] <Alabalistic> there is very little linux involved here as far as I understand you
[12:55] <ich26> sorry for my poor knowledge about that
[12:56] <ich26> after reboot i can choose wich os i want to start...windows or xubuntu
[12:57] <ich26> if i choose xubuntu i cant do anything than wait for finishing the "installation" I DO THIS SINCE ALMOST 3H
[13:00] <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
[13:02] <ich26> its cold, 8gb ram, amd cpu
[15:47] <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
[15:56] <diogenes_> Gregor0, settings > window manager > keyboard > show desktop
[16:04] <Gregor0> weird, i changed it back and forth and removed the binding i made in the keyboardsettings (application shortcuts). it works now, thanks
