<0> Frogzoo: That's right!
<1> HELP!
<2> alchemist: not true
<3> ic56, when there's an error message for it and it's the first thing that met me; me CAN'T be the first one it has happened to. But I can't seem to get any help on the subject. I HAVE to get the files back!
<0> Frogzoo: I just found the answer on another Ubuntu Forums thread
<4> oh actually itai it seems vista uses a different boot manager making it difficult.. :/
<2> alchemist: tried today and dosnt work
<0> THANKS A LOT GUYS! You really helped!
<1> trying to Install Skype on Ubuntu/Debian?
<5> sheil: please note that resizing file systems is DANGEROUS - if you have valuable data - BACKUP FIRST!!!!!
<2> alchemist: even in xp, if i put the key into key#1, then it dosn't work.
<6> I want to download with a windows sistem all (or a lot) packages for ubunto applications or library. Then I want to record these package on a dvd and use this like resp to upgrate my ubuntu system or install program using "Gnome App Install". I want to know 1) if it is possible, 2) where I can download all packages (iso, site...) help me please
<7> jimmy89: can you manually change the key with iwconfig before using the tools?
<0> Yeah, my data is already backed up on an external drive at home
<8> !gparted
<0> Thanks again to both of you!
<9> evoz: Skype is in the repo's so installing shouldn't be a problem
<10> Hi everyone! Having some problems with partitioning. Basically, I (atm) have a 120gb hdd with 3 ntfs partitions, 1 xp, 1 "data" and 1 vista beta. I want to install Ubuntu over the vista one (so delete it, and recreate as a / partition, and a swap), but the ubuntu partition tool is giving me some problems...
<7> jimmy89: then maybe the AP isn't really using that key ;)
<11> its /dev/hda3 but do i need to add " chainloader"...
<9> !tell evoz about skype
<10> It shows up as 120gb unallocated space
<2> alchemist: the ap is using a key that is defined in key#2
<12> Does the USB version of the CueCat barcode scanner work with Ubuntu 6.06?
<10> Partition magic crashes, and windows xp partitioner shows the drive as a 1.5tb drive, with 700gb of unallocated space
<2> alchemist: the client must have the matching key in key#2
<9> evoz: read the links ubotu sent you
<10> I think my partition table is foozled, any ideas on "restoring" it?
<2> alchemist: its really an annoying system that the school has implemented
<13> aCiD2: can u try that HD on another machine?
<2> alchemist: been giving me grief today trying to connect to the network
<14> How do I cancel my next-to-latest shipit request? I changed my address right after requesting and didn't get around to ordering them here yet...
<10> wildman, fraid not, only 1 hd
<7> jimmy89: then you probably are going to have to program the keys with iwconfig and select that way or through /etc/network/interfaces
<10> ermm
<10> computer :P
<8> tonedahl: Try reading the gparted documentation. See if you can get more info. Seriously, partition resizing is always a risky task.
<10> It works fine though, and boots fine, etc
<5> sheil: STOP!! come back!!
<13> aCiD2: strange...
<15> Hi all!
<11> snoops, vista is not that importnat to me....will post on the forum about it
<2> alchemist: if thats what i have to do, i guess i have no choice
<11> thanks for help
<0> Frogzoo: Yes?!
<0> Frogzoo: What's wrong?
<3> ic56, it sais everywhere that it's not a risky task
<6> sorry a connection problem...if you wrote something please repeat
<2> alchemist: is the correct command "iwconfig ath0 key xxxxxxx [2] to define it as key 2?
<7> jimmy89: I've never seen a system that depends on a specific key in a specific slot, so I'm about ut of ideas ;)
<1> anyone know how to install anythin at all in Ubuntu?
<16> tonedahl: You should most certaintly back your data up before resizing a partition :)
<13> aCiD2: if you boot with the LiveCD and run fdsik on that disk, then option 'p' (print partitions), what do you get?
<13> aCiD2: the same schema as above?
<7> jimmy89: that's it afaik
<16> tonedahl: i speak from years of experience, not documentation :p
<10> I can't fdisk
<5> sheil: the size isn't right - does 60gig sound about right?
<17> !tell evoz about install
<10> It just said "unable to access /dev/hdb"
<18> what does it mean that a driver is bounding only?
<3> Spec, I didn't have space for it obviously :p
<2> alchemist: i know well most people just use key#1 as a default
<10> (Which is my harddrive)
<7> jimmy89: and on an atheros chip? urgh
<13> sudo fdisk /dev/hdb
<16> winbond: bounding or bonding?
<13> ?
<0> Frogzoo: Well I was just going to do what NoUse and RAOF on the Forums said: 'sudo resize2fs -p /dev/hda3'
<17> Frogzoo if you just run resize2fs /dev/hdaX it will deftaul to the size of the partition
<10> wildman, yup - did
<2> alchemist: yeah atheros
<17> sheil I think that command will wokr
<18> Spec: bonding, sry
<0> Frogzoo: Yeah, exactly what NoUse said :)(
<7> jimmy89: dapper uses madwifi by default, so it may be a bit grumpy
<16> winbond: bonding means taking two ethernet interfaces and making them act as one, to get double the throughput
<13> aCiD2: hmm...
<8> tonedahl: well, what do I know? I've never trusted partition re-sizing tools. That's kept me safe but it also makes me inexperienced. Maybe others can advise.
<0> Frogzoo: Except with a different hda#
<10> I know :/
<19> can ***ign kb shortcuts to arbitrary commands somewhere?
<10> I might try the ubuntu live cd, see if I can fdisk on that?
<10> ermm
<10> gentoo*
<2> alchemist: well its working fine now on my home network
<7> jimmy89: madwifi-ng or ndiswrapper might work better. but wpasupplicant is patched to use madwifi and not madwifing
<18> Spec: ok, ty
<13> aCiD2: I get that same message if I try to access a non-existing device...
<3> I hope others can :(
<7> jimmy89: heh
<13> aCiD2: are you completely sure it's hdb?
<10> wildman, yea, I tried all /dev/hd* to make sure
<2> alchemist: its just the annoying key#2
<13> aCiD2: wait plz
<3> Gparted destroyed my ntfs partition. How do I fix it again?
<8> tonedahl: are you sure the "not risky" designation applied to NTFS partitions? I can see how resizing FAT partitions could be considered routine (even though, you should *still* backup -- a power failure would screw you for sure)
<5> sheil: NoUse k, look good
<10> The Ubuntu partitioner shows /dev/hdb with the 118gb unpartitioned space, so it is hdb by the looks of things
<7> jimmy89: dunno. I usually just put whatever in slot 1 and boom, no problems
<13> aCiD2: dmesg | grep hdb
<13> aCiD2: does it list your harddisk model/make?
<20> hello guys, it's necessary to change EXTRAVERSION in Makefile to compile kernel modules ?
<2> alchemist: yeah as is generally the case, just hard to find any info on using anything other then key#1, google dosn't show anything helpful
<0> Ok, thanks again guys!
<20> for example: I've the kernel: 2.6.12-10-686-smp
<20> /usr/src/linux/Makefile:
<20> ERSION = 2
<20> PATCHLEVEL = 6
<20> SUBLEVEL = 12
<20> EXTRAVERSION =
<20> NAME=Woozy Numbat
<10> I'm gonna have to boot into the live cd first, I'll be back in about 5
<5> brazil_word_cup: bad bad bad
<10> So, I'm not just running away :)
<13> aCiD2: k
<7> jimmy89: although now that I've got the ndiswrapper+nm+wpa thing corrected (I think) I can poke at it tonight.
<18> Spec: do you know how to update a lancard driver
<3> ic56, see Is it safe? Here http://wiki.linux-ntfs.org/doku.php?id=ntfsresize
<8> Seeing as the issue came up... does Windows come with partition resizing sw? or are there 3rd party commercial non-Linux sw that?
<7> jimmy89: file a bug on launchpad, pm me the number and I'll see if I can poke at it
<2> alchemist: can you make / mod a program?
<13> ic56: partition magic
<16> winbond: nope, sorry.
<21> ic56: no. you buy it seperatly
<7> jimmy89: I can
<7> jimmy89: just not here - I'm at work and my test rig is at home ;)
<2> alchemist: so you think you could make a gui to allow you to input the key number?
<22> Hi, is there any reason why changes to xorg.conf are ignored (or at least they seem to be). I'm using Dapper
<7> jimmy89: I'm not quite there yet.
<4> how are you making changes ArtVandalae?
<7> jimmy89: but I can probably figure out how/where thigns aren't working quite right and put together a fix
<22> sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf
<4> (you need to restart xorg for changes to take effect)
<2> alchemist: well ill try the iwconfig method tomorrow
<22> Yep, done. Ctrl+Backspace works?
<22> Ctrl+Alt+Backspace I think
<7> jimmy89: that should work, and if you file a bug maybe a longer-term fix can be put into place
<2> alchemist: it could just be a matter of commenting out the lines when im at home, and then enabling them at school
<5> ArtVandalae: you should see X shutdown & restart - then X will reread the config
<7> jimmy89: there has to be a cleaner way, though
<22> Hm.. what's the alternative: init 3?
<5> ArtVandalae: there is none in debian - all runlevels default to same as rc2
<8> tonedahl: did you read the FAQ? there's mention of some checks that are done *before* it starts mucking around. If the error you saw is from one of these checks, then maybe the problem you are having is unrelated to teh partition resizing
<2> alchemist: you would think, like my drivers on xp for it just have a nice little thing asking which key is this
<7> jimmy89: yeah. it's p[robably in there somewhere, just a matter fo finding it
<23> hello
<5> dEUZ: noone here but us chickens
<2> alchemist: hey mate im going to edit my /interfaces file and leave it commented out now, can i send the lines to you to check them ?
<24> quiz question: in top, what does wa mean?
<12> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=143421&highlight=cuecat << i'm the last post in this thread here. Can someone provide ***istance?
