<0> tanath: but is it hda1?
<1> Mr_Miyagi: step
<2> linux question: i am trying to make TWO partitions on an external hard drive using Gparted, one formatted to FAT32 and the other to ext3.... it is taking a LONG LONG time to format the ext3 partition (it has been at it for 20 minutes now). is this something that will not work? or does it just take a while?
<3> Mr_Miyagi, is what?
<4> gnomefreak: for what?
<0> starseed: thankyou
<5> eXistenZ: ssh
<6> Warbo worked fine btw, misunderstood what grub wanted with device.map btw
<7> !tell ArthurBrazil about Nvidia
<1> Mr_Miyagi: you'll be able to choose all you mount points
<8> SurfnKid: I think it depends on the driver (mine hasn't worked since I rebooted since installing it :()
<6> er redundant
<4> gnomefreak: how can I connect to my server then?
<3> Mr_Miyagi, /dev/hda1 is what i want to boot from, yes....
<5> eXistenZ: not sure i dont use it
<9> !tell boricua about signal
<4> !ssh
<10> hmm... ssh is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SSHHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AdvancedOpenSSH
<6> Warbo: hmm... yeah it seems Vista Beta 2 installs bootloader to part hda1
<11> james_xxx, i dont think so
<12> Warbo: oh ok, I thought so
<6> Warbo: if they decide to go with some drm based encryption BS they can keep their damn koolaid
<5> nny: please join #ubuntu-offtopic for windows disscusion
<1> i think its kinda wild that you can get vista rc2 and a one-year serial for free
<11> james_xxx,but wait more time and see what will happen
<6> gnomefreak: yeah sorry
<2> foxiness: you just don't think it will work??
<8> nny: You can install GRUB to a partition too. Vista beta probably does that to let you still access XP
<0> tanath: I've had similar problems because something has changed the partition table. Instead of being eg. hda5, something had changed it to eg. hda7 which confused grub
<1> not that I'm gonna install that crap
<3> lol @ gparted warning: "Since GParted can be a weapon of m*** distruction only root may run it"
<13> good evening
<6> tanath: lol
<14> hi
<15> okay, ive copied /home to a new partion, and edited the fstab to reflect this, im about to run "sudo mount -a" ,but is there any way i can remove the old home from / w/o using a live cd?
<0> tanath: if you start the ubuntu installer and choose the manual partitioner you can check so that your hda1 is in fact named hda1
<12> Warbo: I can finally get sudo apt-get update to run but my download rate is 10K 12K max. and its cable modem. Im linked Ad-Hoc style and the Laptop router can get up to 100KB/s so im trying to change that :/
<16> Subhuman_: once you unmount it, sure.
<12> Warbo: whats the command tho
<8> tanath: Hmmm. Why isn't there a US export restriction on that too? (We can't let international terrorists resize their partitions!)
<12> Warbo: wireless-rate ?
<2> tanath: gparted is awesome
<13> I have a pesky package that appears to be broken
<17> ok, what's the trick to seeing all the bugs after you login to launchpad.net? All I can get it to do is show the ones ***igned to me (0).
<0> tanath: if not, the solution is simple, just change the grub.conf to point to the right parition.
<11> james_xxx, tell me about the size of this partition
<5> loxety: sudo apt-get -f install
<13> wondering how I can go about removing it
<15> Flannel, i mean how do I get to /home on the old partion if the new one is mounted at /home?
<16> Subhuman_: mount it somewhere else ;)
<18> LabThug_hm, https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bugs <-- search there
<5> LabThug_hm: are you on the bug team?
<2> foxiness: the one i am formatting to ext3 is about 22G... and it is an older 5400 rpm HD
<8> SurfnKid: Well I have removed all of the stuff from my config files (in an attempt to start from scratch. No such luck, it just screws the boot process when it is plugged in)
<1> Subhuman_: you'll need to back up all the stuff from there first if you don't want to loose it i think
<16> gnomefreak: no, but I agree, launchpad is rather difficult to find bugs in
<19> can anyone recommend a decent hex editor?
<3> Mr_Miyagi, nny, i have a suspicion. i messed with the bios settings (boot order) since i couldn't get it to boot from the cd for an unknown reason... perhaps that changed it
<13> gnomefreak: I get the error dpkg: error processing clvm (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3
<1> then, rm /home/user -Rf , and then create it again, to remount it
<5> Flannel: it can be
<8> I find bugs in Launchpad through Google :)
<12> Warbo: ah, aint no good. what wifi card u using
<16> starseed: huh?
<20> hello
<17> gnomefreak: no, but the last time I tried to file a bug I had to login
<8> SurfnKid: Ermm. I forget the name now (it is a little generic)
<21> Where can I get the xdbe headers for ubuntu 6.06?
<1> can you be more specific with your "huh"
<5> LabThug_hm: you have to log in
<13> and a bunch more when running apt-get -f install
<16> Subhuman_: unmount it, mount it somewhere else.
<16> starseed: why would he want to delete it? Hes trying to read his data from it
<3> Mr_Miyagi, nny, actually, hda1 is still hda1...
<5> loxety: that will either uninstall things or install themt o fix it
<11> james_xxx, the gpartd will informed you if it can not do this step ,like what heppen with me when i do the resize some partition
<12> Warbo: i see
<15> Flannel, good idea.
<1> I was under the impression he wants to make his /home/user mounted on a seperate partition
<22> could someone help me?
<0> tanath: ok, that rules out that possibility then
<12> Warbo: where can I look for arguments to put on that interfaces file
<1> and still access the data from the root partition
<18> dad, ask away,
<23> does anypone know ho i can add the trahcan to my desktop?
<5> dad: not without knowing your problem
<11> dad, just ask
<24> any video card gurus in here knowledgeable about nvidia cards?
<16> starseed: he made a new partition, mounting as home, and wantsto read his old stuff still
<2> foxiness: ok, i am just scared that somehow it got stuck
<25> i messed up my partitions on my main drive while trying to install badger, so i formatted my main drive and installed badger on that. now i need to access another internal drive that has my music and media files, the drive is /dev/hdd1 and while trying to access this drive in file browser i get the error "device /dev/hdd1 is not removable" "could not execute pmount". can anyone help me with this?
<13> gnomefreak: I understand.. I've tried installing the package again and then removing it but seems to do nothing
<0> tanath: what file system are you using?
<22> i just installed dapper drake on a computer of mine today, its my first time with linux
<8> SurfnKid: Funny thing was that I downloaded the driver (because the eBay page for it gave a link to Linux drivers [the main reason I bought that card]) and after struggling to compile them I found out that they are already in the kernel and the network-admin tool had detected the card fine. It all worked until I rebooted
<5> xonic: it is on help.ubuntu.com
<3> Mr_Miyagi, ext3
<18> xonic, gconf-editor, apps/nautilus/desktop iirc
<23> lol
<22> and firefox seemed to work, but i cannot access any parts of it that use xml
<26> Hey, when I installed updates, I had to restart after updating my Kernel, and after the reboot I was asked which resolution I would like to run at, and I chose a smaller resolution because I was running it in VMWare, now I want to run it full-screen at that resolution but it's not an option anymore. Is there a way I can return to that screen so I may the proper resolution ? =D
<9> is there a nice gui for podcasts?
<23> thx nickrud
<5> loxety: sudo apt-get remove --purge <packagename>
<22> it says there is an xml parse error
<5> loxety: that install it again
<8> boricua: Rhythmbox can do them
<21> Where can I get the xdbe headers for ubuntu 6.06? (for conky xmms vars)
<11> james_xxx, is there something importint on this disk ? if not you can cancel it and start again any way
<2> foxiness: no, this disk is empty
<23> nickrud: it doesn't work
<0> tanath: check your grub.conf file and post it in a private message to me
<1> Flannel: right, so if the link to the new partition points to the same /home/user , then he'll have to unmount his home just to read ****, no very efficient, I was just suggesting he backup all that
<27> I have no sound with flash movies like those on google video and youtube, does anyone know how to fix that?
<18> xonic, a sec
<0> tanath: it should be located in /boot/grub/grub.conf
<8> dad: Is that when an XML page loads? That is because FireFox is not designed for XML, it is designed for HTML (with the exception of RSS)
<13> gnomefreak: I get the same error
<5> human: iirc that is a known issue
<12> Warbo: hah! same thing here, I was looking to compile. then someone here helped me, just to look for the wlan-ng package in Synaptic, and the usbcore had it already too. that was easy. The big problem next was the apt-get update. Which i can do now but at 10KB heh.
<11> dad, like what ?
<5> loxety: what package?
<22> no i mean i open a tab like history or bookmarks, or try to go into preferences, it says theres an xml parse error
<12> Warbo: i know im being picky cuz i can connect, but its slow
<3> Mr_Miyagi, menu.lst
<27> gnomefreak, it worked before
<13> gnomefreak: clvm
<28> How do I reconfigure/detect my video?
<8> human: You must make sure Firefox (or whatever browser) is started up with nothing else using the sound. If something has been making noise then close it and Firefox then reload Firefox (non-Free applications can never get the hang of sound)
<0> tanath: hmm, yea, guess it could be called that as well
<5> loxety: its a known issue they are working on it last i heard
<5> human: ^^^
<5> loxety: hold on im gonna look at soemthing
<27> ok
<9> for some reason my sound is not that hight eventhough i cranked all volumes to 90%
<13> gnomefreak: thanks
<21> Where can I get the xdbe headers for ubuntu 6.06? (for conky xmms vars)
<18> xonic, Alt-F2 gconf-editor <enter> , go to apps/nautilus/desktop, and ithe right pane, trash_icon_visilbe
<1> boricua: make sure you pcm is turned up too
<18> erm, visible
<29> is there a metapackage you can use to install php/mysql/apache2 ?
<8> human: XMMS on pause is a biggie (stop will stop it accessing soundcard, but pause will leave it hogging the sound)
<12> wow what a difference can shutting the hda down can make on the battery
<30> !tell libdmb about lamp
<9> starseed: 97% is the pcm and still
<12> increased from 52min to 2hrs 30min
<5> loxety: im not sure about that try running the --config command that bash gives you
<0> boricua: not using ubuntu normally, but try and check out the volume levels with 'alsamixer' from a console (if it exists)
<28> How do I reconfigure/detect my video?
<1> Warbo: change the output to ALSA in the preferences
