<0> sometimes i cant help it... know what i mean thoreauputic?
<2> adventchild: absolutely
<0> lol... any other eggs?
<2> adventchild: but remember that newcomers won't get it
<0> lol tru
<0> e
<4> does anybody have a clue as to how to skip that filesystem check at ubuntu boot?
<0> coffeetable, idk... im new to linux
<2> coffeetable: it should only happen once every 30 or so boots
<3> that years
<2> coffeetable: unless you just mean the initial stuff before the splash
<0> moooooooooooooooo
<4> thoreauputic: yes, 30 or so boots, but i need to disable it for good now
<2> coffeetable: why?
<0> i dont think you can disable it for good...
<4> thoreauputic: the problem is my hard disk is physically damaged
<2> coffeetable: it's there for a reason....
<4> thoreauputic: and it keeps failingn
<0> put it in a mac and run a low lev format
<2> coffeetable: well, you need a new hard drive then don't you?
<4> thoreauputic: i know it's there but it keeps failing and won't let me boot!
<0> coffeetable, put it in a mac and run a low lev format
<2> coffeetable: erm - your hard drive is dead
<3> are you saying ubuntu broke your hd? =O
<5> Does anyone know if prelinking causes problems with wine? I've removed the prelinking, but still can't get wine to work, which it did before I enabled the prelinking
<0> that should fix it
<4> thoreauputic: new hard drive? i have tried convincing my dad for ages to get me one
<6> Coffee: is the SMART detection errors that tells you "Imminent detected"?
<4> pwcrlinux: no
<2> coffeetable: well, your data is probably gone by now -you shouldn't reboot a damaged hard drive
<4> and the nearest mac is real far away
<7> anyone? way to install linux from iso file ? i know its done on jumpdrives so its possible
<6> Coffee: or HD led stays on for long time?
<0> Frogzoo, wine is very tempermental
<4> thoreauputic: i don't mind losing my data, i don't HAVE any anyway, that's all fine
<0> deamon tools... virtually mount a cd drive
<0> run iso from there
<8> I'm making an Ubuntu killer distro
<2> coffeetable: I can't wave a magic wand that will fix a dead hard drive, sorry
<8> It's called Ooba-tooba
<5> adventchild: but if I put back in place what used to work, it should work, unless the packaging has a bug & isn't uninstalling stuff properly
<4> thoreauputic: i'm not asking you to
<0> coffeetable, try to freeze it
<4> thoreauputic: all i want to know is just how to skip that check.
<9> heh, i've also heard that sometimes it helps putting dead hard drives in the freezer
<0> ^^^^^^^^^^
<4> thoreauputic: i'm on a laptop.
<0> i just said that ;p;
<6> coffee: or HD led stays on for long time?
<0> so?
<0> freeze it for like 2 hrs
<5> adventchild: I had winetools working fine with 20050725 - now the ie6 install craps out & it's a problem (I had enabled prelinking, but also had tried out 0.9.11 and a few others)
<0> ie6 has been known to crash with wine
<0> !wine
<0> ...
<7> adventchild, uh .....
<4> adventchild: i can't freeze it'
<0> !tell Frogzoo about wine
<0> coffeetable, why not?
<7> :) daemon tools for linux ?



<2> coffeetable: well, my laptop doesn't fsck if it's on battery power
<4> adventchild: it's physically damaged
<4> thoreauputic: i'll try running it on battery
<0> coffeetable, wont stop you from freezing it
<2> coffeetable: but I suspect you just can't boot it if it is damaged
<5> adventchild: but I had this working nicely before, if I follow the same install process & it fails, then there's something wrong with the packaging
<4> thoreauputic: that's all just fine and dandy, but what im asking is just one little question
<0> i have frozen hds that would not work if the genie in a bottle came out and tryed to fix it, and they came back to life for a little while
<2> coffeetable: how are you going to issue commands to a system that won't boot?
<0> Frogzoo, idk... im new to the linux thing, but try to remove it and reinstall
<4> thoreauputic: give me a yes or no answer. do you know how to skip that check?
<0> NO
<6> coffeetable: I've experinced with hard drive deaths many times.. either SMART detection or HD led light stays on for long time, I knew it's dead and I bought new lappy hard drive and installed the ubuntu distro into the whole lappy hard drive, it's works great..
<2> coffeetable: I think if you read what I said you'll see what I mean
<0> you cant skip it if you cant read or write anything to it... TRY TO FREEZE IT! TRUST THAT!!!
<4> thoreauputic: i get what you say but i know exactly what i'm doing here
<2> coffeetable: how can you tell the system not to fsck if you can't get a shell ?
<4> adventchild: chill, easy.
<2> coffeetable: in that case you don't need my help :)
<0> lol
<4> thoreauputic: lol, nice one.
<5> adventchild: yes, it's the right approach, but already tried - I'm thinking the packaging is leaving remnants when uninstalling so the new install isn' clean, and fails
<10> i think coffeetable is asking if there's some boot parameter he can use to disable fsck....perfectly reasonable question if you ask me
<0> Frogzoo, hunt and peck for leftovers
<4> thoreauputic: but i jst need to know one thing. do. you. know. how. to skip that check? if yes, say yes, if no, say no!
<11> anybody connecting wireless here ?
<0> Frogzoo, thats about all i know about that... sry... thoreauputic may be able to help further
<0> !woreless
<12> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, adventchild
<0> !wireless
<12> wireless is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards if it does not work out of the box https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper windows drivers
<11> there seems to be a bug
<0> ?
<13> is there a way to figure out why kde type rate... i have to hold keys down for like 10 seconds for a single letter
<10> pappan i'm afraid you're going to have to be WAY more specific than that
<2> coffeetable: if you can chroot to the drive, issue shutdown -f now
<2> coffeetable: the -f flag means "skip fsck on boot"
<13> how to uninstall KDE .. then reinstall
<0> pappan, bug.... ????????????????????????
<0> w***up?
<2> coffeetable: you might need the -r flag for reboot
<14> iceman, it's a pain, because it consists of so many different packages...
<11> i connected here thru normal network cable
<2> coffeetable: so shutdown -r -f now
<4> thoreauputic: thank you, that is exactly what i need to know.
<0> ok?
<15> Frogzoo: thanks very muchfor your help over the last weel with qemu up and running without kqenu
<11> then i enabled wireless which was not working
<14> iceman, but when you reinstall, make sure to use the kde-desktop package, not just 'kde', otherwise you end up with a load of useless stuff....
<0> enable wireless @ boot
<2> coffeetable: you have maybe one chance in a thousand that it will work :)
<11> suddenly my connection stopped
<2> coffeetable: good luck
<0> pappan, try 'sudo aptitude install ndiswrapper'
<15> void^ hi
<4> thoreauputic: thanks. i'll hopefully see you later
<11> adventchild, yes i will try that
<13> cannot figure out why my typwent to heck in KDE
<6> Pappan: what kernel version you have now?
<16> Anybody here play Crossfire?
<13> Piete i'll sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop to reinstall
<0> i have 5.10... i love breezy badger, but i have heard good things about warthog
<11> breezy
<11> PwcrLinux, breezy
<6> pappan: type /sv and see the kernel version..
<11> Linux ubuntu 2.6.12-9-386 #1 Mon Oct 10 13:14:36 BST 2005 i686 GNU/Linux
<2> PwcrLinux: you need to run apt-get upgrade on that machine
<2> PwcrLinux: that kernel is old
<10> you mean sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
<0> no
<0> sudo apt-get upgrade
<2> PwcrLinux: you should have 2.6.12-10
<6> thoreauputic: yea, the update notification on the bar now, and I will do upgrade later..
