<2> does anybody know how to mount a partition so it appears as a hard drive?

<2> just another partition..
<3> is there a pre-built package of epic4 for ubuntu
<3> i should say I see one, but apt-get doesn't find it.
<4> how do you see it?

<4> it's in the universe repositories
<3> yea, I swore I was using the universe repositories, but obviously I am not
<3> does "apt-get update" just update the list of available packages?
<5> im trying to figure out which number a certain harddrive is in this format (hd0,0)
<5> anyone know how to do that
<4> TiGgEr9: please check you /etc/apt/sources.list
<3> +Mellar: I did edit that, but wasn't sure how to make sure that apt-get refreshes from the file, and wanted to know of "apt-get update" was the correct method to use..
<4> yes, it's the correct method
<3> thanks
<4> sudo apt-get install epic4 should be possible then
<3> yep, that worked

<17> aptitude seems to have mangled whatever it stores its data in, "aptitude install" wants to install... "Will use 620MB of disk space DL Size: 177MB" any way to get it to fix itself?
<13> can i install ubuntu from windows?
<15> uhh
<13> hm?
<15> you can burn the cd in windows, and reboot and have ubuntu :)
<13> i don't have a cd to burn it into :(
<15> I see
<15> https://shipit.ubuntu.com/
<13> lol
<13> buying a cd would be simpler
<15> umm
<13> shipping it to here would cost a lot and it would take a lot of time
<15> they'll ship you free cds
<13> i already have the ubuntu is
<13> iso
<13> i know but shipment to israel will cost a lot
<15> they'll ship you free cds
<13> and i don't have time
<15> I see
<15> I'm not sure if you can use windows to mount an iso and run it
<15> hrm
<15> sec
<13> yes, will it run from windows
<13> that is my question
<15> http://lifehacker.com/software/ubuntu/install-and-run-ubuntu-without-disturbing-windows-228956.php
<15> there's a windows installer it seems
<13> in tere sting
<17> wow
<13> beh, does it support mint linux?
<17> cute
<13> i guess not
<15> no eye deer
<13> but that's a good link
<18> I recently changed my video card I'm using ubuntu server, when I do $startx I get a bunch of erro messages
<18> nvidia" failed to load the nvidia kernel module
<18> screen found but none have a usable configuration
<18> any ideas ?
<17> I seem to have fixed my problem with aptitude, somehow it got the impression I wanted to install a whole mess of packages, I just told it I didn't through the curses gui
<13> yay it's working
<19> l1nx: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
<13> ubuntu has things in it to fix up partitions and keep my linux with dual boot right
<18> awol I tried that one a couple of times already and get the same thing
<19> l1nx: choose different options
<19> cameotwat: if you know what yer doing it does
<20> hi, can some one explain how do I patch stuff in ubuntu ? I got a .patch and I have no idea how to use it
<13> awol well i put the linux mint CD and it's live
<19> depends what's broke
<20> its a patch for some issue with Compiz
<19> patches are used for source code and then need compiling....
<19> i doubt you're up to the task
<20> it cant be that difficult
<20> its only a diff file
<19> well you'll need to do sudo apt-get install build-essential
<19> to get all the compiler ttools installed first
<20> got them...
<19> then in the parent directory that holds the source tree do patch -p0 < patchfile.diff
<20> and compile as usual ?
<19> if the patch applies properly sure
<13> :O
<20> now one more thing, how do I remove what I got on my machine ? Im really new to all this debian stuff.... I got used to Fbsd ports :P
<19> apt-get install blah ; apt-get remove --purge blah ; man apt-get
<19> 20,000 packages available via apt
<20> oh, thanks :)
<19> apt-cache search blah is your friend
<20> seraching for what I got or for what I CAN get ?
<19> just to search thru 20,000 packages is all
<13> anyone here uses linux mint?
<4> cameotwat: should be pretty much the same as ubuntu
<13> Mellar yes but it works as a live CD for me
<13> i want to install it
<13> i don't have an option of installing it
<4> you should have an option
<13> i don't have one
<13> i have 'start linux mint' 'start linux mint on safe graphics' and 'regular boot'
<4> Installation Notes: Make sure not to install anything from the Live CD prior to installation, including language packs, as this could potentially crash the installer. Leave the session in English and proceed to install. Once installed on the hard-drive, if you want to change the language, simply click on System->Administration->Language Support.
<13> i don't have any 'install' option
<21> whats the equivalent to /etc/inittab in 6.10?
<4> cameotwat: ok. I can't tell you where to "click"
<13> Mellar what do you mean?
<4> I haven't even installed Ubuntu with the liveCD
<4> I don't know where to click
<13> ok
<13> it has a linut mint interface anyway
<4> yeah. it's hard to help people with GUI-stuff
<21> how can I add a respawn process in Upstart?
