<7> ubuntu pwns

<2> Ric, I don't think floppy disks can be mounted automatically (unlike CDs and USB drives)
<7> ah
<8> but thats okay because my router is weird
<7> which one is it?
<2> Ric, does the 'computer' list a floppy drive?
<8> its a Linksys WRT something or other

<6> jli, im using xubuntu desktop so there
<7> it set up mine automatically
<0> gnomefreak still here?
<9> OK - ubuntu & notebooks...A few years ago, I remember reading the Linux & laptops can be problematic because hardware manufacturers use proprietaty hardware and the drivers weren't there yet. No big deal, I used a desktop. I'm looking at returning to college, and will be getting a notebook (likely used off eBay). any suggestions on what I should be aware of when buying a notebook? I plan to install ubuntu on it as soon as I get it.
<8> hopefully ill be on ADSL2 soon,, so i get a new router//modem
<6> 's no 'computer'
<3> Yorgos: yeah kind of
<0> so i am looking for NetWork adapter on my device manager?
<2> SkippyX, read lots of reviews of your target laptop on linux-laptops
<0> this is what u meant?
<6> how do i mount my floppy disk drive?
<3> Yorgos: are you on windows?
<10> hey guys
<0> yeap
<9> Does mileage still vary on notebooks/laptops?
<2> Ric, if you run "cat /etc/fstab", is there a line that mentions '/dev/fd0'?
<6> help please..!
<8> ahh
<8> the Ubuntu installer is hanging
<3> ok go into device manager and look under network devices it should list somethign there let me know what it say while your doing that ill brb
<6> jli yes
<0> ok
<6> /dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0
<2> Ric, great. do you know how to use the 'mount' command?
<11> Hi I think I have a problem s installing Ubuntu. It says something is wrong with bootstrap
<8> HDD light is on,, but nothing is happening... the same thing as with Fedora 3 =(
<6> yes
<2> Ric, then try to mount /media/floppy0. it should work, if you have a disk in there
<8> is this because im trying to install a 32 bit system on a 64 bit processor?
<2> dotdashandy, how long have you waited?
<8> ?not very long
<8> it got up to the partitioner
<2> dotdashandy, wait longer ;) laptop hard drives are sllooowww
<8> but stopped
<8> laptop?
<6> ok.. thank jli
<8> im on a desktop
<2> dotdashandy, heh, sorry. must have got you confused with someone else
<2> Ric, no problem
<6> i have another problem.. graveman doesn't detect my cdrw drive.. jli, any suggestions?
<8> it's not tting me put in a WPA key .. it only says WEP
<2> dotdashandy, yup, wireless linux is still a pain
<6> jli, what's the filesystem type of floppy0?
<2> dotdashandy, you can use WPA (check out wpasupplicant), but I've never seen an installer than can use it
<8> okay its starting the partitioner
<2> Ric, sorry, I don't know
<6> hmm
<8> it just finished,, now ive got a blue screen with the little grey bar at the bottom
<8> HDD light is on but its not doing anything
<12> I'm trying to burn a data-dvd with k3b - it complains that the drive contains a dvd+r (empty) and won't record on it? Any ideas?
<2> Ric, I believe you can format it with any filesystem, and I think most are formatted with fat32
<8> should it be taking this long?
<6> what cd burning application would you guys recommend?
<13> Ric: k3b
<14> Ric: GnomeBaker
<15> Hi
<8> is there a kind of safe setup mode?
<16> ric: xcdroast (just had to give him the 3rd option)
<6> BlueEagle, how do i install xcdroast? thanks
<8> I have a seagate hard disk,, is this the problem?
<16> ric: Isn't that in the repo?
<16> !info xcdroast

<18> My computer is hanging on start up at "setting up ALSA card 0...". I lifted my comp upside down to read a card and it froze and then I restarted it and now this is happening. Any suggestion? I also had installed a tv tuner driver but I had restarted once since then so I don't think that is it.
