<0> ahhh...
<0> ok
<0> thanks :)
<1> pix2iii: see what we did is mount it to that directory ..
<1> thats how is works in linux.. devices are mounted to directories .. and you view the contents there
<0> this would have taken me six months to figure out on my own... no kidding :)
<0> yep, I see the light :), the green light that means 'mounted'
<1> :)
<2> :-)
<0> ok, I'm in, as they say in the movies :)
<0> I don't recognise all this stuff in here though...
<1> heh
<0> but this is my Linux partition now?
<1> no its MINE !>>>> !>!>!> j/k ;)
<0> lol
<1> yeah thats the partition pix2iii
<1> unless you have others?
<0> no, one Linux
<0> so, I see hdb3 here again
<3> im trying to install fluxbox but it says I need a higher menu any ideals? im using ubuntu
<0> I tried clicking on hdb3, and ...same message, "I don't know how to read.."
<0> so that's not what I should do then I guess
<0> so how do I navigate in here, /mnt/hdb3
<0> sorry, I double clicked when it's single click, I inadvertantly entered some second folder
<0> I was actually in /mnt/hdb3/dev
<0> sorry
<0> yeah, now I see all my 'stuff', back in /mnt/hdb3
<0> thanks a lot
<0> how can I save this session? I would like to keep this information
<0> my irc client is nirc
<0> znx, and others, thank you very very much :)
<0> I am sooo relieved :)
<1> :)
<0> yeah, it's like a huge dark cloud went away :)
<0> the two files I'm supposed to replace are ".xinitrc" and "startx"
<0> do you happen to know if replacing those will delete any information, like settings or maybe files?
<1> why do you want to replace them???
<1> startx is a program
<1> it starts the X windows ..
<0> ok
<1> and xinitrc is a file that startx reads ..
<1> to start X properly
<0> I was told as a suggestion in the Feather forum to replace those
<0> ok, thanks
<0> my problem is I chose a Window Manager that wasn't installed
<0> my desktop got all messed up...
<1> not installed ..
<1> that doesnt mean replace those files
<0> ok
<0> in the menu at Feather, there's a list of windowmanagers, when I chose evilwm, that what caused the problem
<0> I think that's what was said, that not all the wm's in the list are "installed", but I'm not sure
<4> hehe.
<4> "is that lacuna coil?" "not unless she grew a ****"
<0> never mind about the commands to mount etc., though, I just realized I have them in the console, I don't need to be able to scroll up in nirc
<0> :embarr***ed:
<0> anyway, I just want to say, I think this is really fun :DD
<0> I like messing around with this linux stuff very much :)
<1> :))
<0> I was able to save using nano the stuff from console, now I'm going to post it in a Hotmail mail or save it on floppy, and I can keep it :)
<1> pix2iii: hehe nice :)
<0> yep, I got to say it again, you totally saved me with this information
<0> :)
<1> we have forums too pix2iii .. so you can get lots of info there..
<1> http://www.linux-noob.com :)
<0> ok
<0> ahh, yes I saw it when I entered, I think
<5> candy shop
<0> I'm saving that address, url too
<1> yup thats right pix2iii .. kutzooi sticks a onjoin message :)
<0> yeah, that's what I mean I guess
<6> exit
<6> oops wrong screen :)
<2> "Bonza."
<5> hahaha
<7> aaaa
<1> bbbb
<7> got 43 days uptime on my datacenters XP box
<8> *gasp*
<8> my parents computer upstairs is probably atleast 43 days
<9> My comps never last that long
<9> heh
<1> 23:30:40 up 31 days, 46 min, 5 users, load average: 0.09, 0.17, 0.17
<1> thats this box ..
<1> 23:30:55 up 127 days, 10 min, 1 user, load average: 0.10, 0.14, 0.14
<1> thats the other :)
<10> http://www.zenmedia.co.uk/?page=network
<10> my boxs
<1> recent reboot on two .. 104 on the third .. NICE :D
<1> that 127 is the longest ive ever had a box up :)
<7> linux...
<1> never p***ed the 100day before
<1> KobrAs: me?
<1> yeah
<10> longest for me is 323 days
<7> i had 400+
<1> nice
<7> but a big power outage killed it
<7> :/
<1> at work we have linux boxes that are up for a year,, then we patch and reboot them :)
<7> same
<1> KobrAs: no ups?
<7> znx, for 5-6 hours nope :)
<7> even backup power died
<1> KobrAs: we have a 30min ups .. then a generator
<7> yeah, same
<1> which can go 24hr without a fill up
<1> but that died :X
<1> ouch
<7> :)
<2> :o)
<1> KobrAs: not fun when it happens.. did i tell you aboyt the 3 shutdowns in one day?
<0> I tried to go to http://www.linux-noob.com but I get just a blank page
<1> a "fire engineer" .. was installing some new smoke detectors .. triggered the system 3 times in a row .. auto shutdown :x
<1> pix2iii: i see a page :x
<0> ok, it's just me then
<1> http://www.linux-noob.com/forums/index.php?act=home it redirects here.. try dir ?
<2> http://b.oooom.net/110
<1> *direct
<0> I tried to go to the 'redirect' ,but that did't work either..
<1> hrmm
<0> it's probably just the browser?
<1> what browser?
<0> firefox 1.0
<1> works fine for me..
<0> yes, I thought it was fine too
<10> fine here
<1> yeah should be.. maybe its not accepting redirects?
<10> upgrade firefox to 1.5.1
<0> I did upgrade in my hd install, but right now I'm on a Live CD
<0> but it works in Dillo, I tried now
<0> except Dillo is very primitive
<1> yeah it is .. quick but far too lite
<0> I'll be able to get to the forum when I go back to Windows
<0> my Dillo on the Live CD is old too
<0> funny that Dillo manages, but Firefox didn't
<1> like i said.. firefox must be not doing redirects .. at a guess?
<0> anyway, should I ask about my windowmanager problem at the forum rhater than here?
<0> yeah
<0> it just stayed at the blank page
<1> you can ask it anywhere :D
<0> then I found the redirect in the source, and tried manually, but still that didn't give me the forum
<0> for some reason..
<1> anyway
<1> ask :D
<0> ok
<0> :)
<2> =)
<0> except I don't really know what the problem is
<1> heh
<1> thats the best sort :D
