<0> HotDrive, sudp cp /whatever /wherever
<1> gholias: (I only need the network parts from lshw)
<2> using sudo can I copy an intire directory from Desktop to another directory?
<0> HotDrive, yes, sudo cp -r /whatever /wherever
<3> afk a moment, pager is telling me I have work to do
<4> h3sp4wn, http://pastebin.com/741229
<5> spike, I don't understand what your asking, is it (remember I don't understand) apt-cache policy package (but I think not)
<6> How and where do I get mkinitrd from?
<7> ompaul: I'm asking for debconf-get-selections on not installed packages
<2> so: the directory in desktop is called ABC... sudo cp -r /Desktop/ABC /usr/share/PPP/ABC ?
<0> Techno_2, apt-cache search mkinitrd
<5> spike, debconf-show ?
<5> spike, I am only guessing from this "man -k debconf!
<5> spike, I am only guessing from this "man -k debconf" even
<8> h3sp4wn, I'm trying to figure out what you meant by korora live CD
<9> hi
<7> ompaul: that works on local db, so no
<2> do I need to create the destination directory before copying?
<9> I have a system with kubuntu installed in an ide hd, but it has also a sata hd, but I can find any mount point
<1> reiki: Kororaa XGL live cd
<3> /dev/sda...
<5> HotDrive, what are you actually trying to install we might actually know a way to do it -- sudo mkdir foo
<8> h3sp4wn, googling that ....
<4> h3sp4wn, i be right back
<9> lemur: I can see this in dmesg: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14734
<10> is there ever going to come something like an ubuntu media center thing? It would be nice to have something using Freevo or MythTV, so you can have a user friendly kind of winmce
<9> but anything else
<11> nabend
<12> How do I mount a usb drive? With one, I just put it in and type 'sudo mount /media/sda1', but with my other usb drive it does not work
<2> ompaul -> I have a skin for aMSN in Desktop and I want to copy it to /usr/share/amsn/skins/
<3> shanky does lspci say anything about unknown hardware?
<5> HotDrive, have you got amsn installed?
<2> yes
<9> lemur: no
<2> I downloaded the skins in zip format and unziped them in Desktop
<9> I can even read this: 0000:00:0f.0 RAID bus controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VIA VT6420 SATA RAID Controller (rev 80)
<5> HotDrive, so do this first, sudo updatedb then do this, locate amsn | grep skin
<5> HotDrive, that is to find it on your machine for sure
<3> shanky: do you have any sda devices in /dev? ls -l /dev/sda*
<6> eggzeck: I tried that and there is no mkinitrd package?
<2> now I just have to copy them to the /skins directory in amsn
<13> lemur: unfortunately that does not help me as i am looking to register a messenger protocol for use with gaim, not a file type
<9> lemur: no, I haven't anything like /dev/sd*
<5> HotDrive, step 1 >>cd /usr/share/amsn/skins/<<
<5> HotDrive, got that done yet?
<3> hmm, my sata drives on via hardware show up as /dev/sda* devices
<2> yes
<3> shannky: hmm, my sata drives on via hardware show up as /dev/sda* devices
<3> i can't type today
<3> shanky: does lsmod show that via modules are loaded?
<14> does anyone know how to automatically download packages when installing a program?
<5> HotDrive, sudo cp ~hotdrive/Desktop/Path/* . <<< note the dot
<5> HotDrive, sudo cp -R ~hotdrive/Desktop/Path/* . <<< note the dot (sorry about that
<9> lemur: yes
<3> elsie-dee: what does that have to do with gnome?
<9> sata_via 8964 0
<9> libata 78992 1 sata_via
<5> HotDrive, a lower case letter is different to an upper case letter when dealing with text on the command line
<9> lemur: it could be that the hd is not already formatted?
<2> well it copied the files but didn't stored them in a new directory
<3> shanky: you should see an sda device in /dev if your kernel recognizes the sata drive
<14> can anyone tell me how to automatically download packages when installing a program?
<5> ubotu tell BuCKetHeaD27 about synaptic
<2> I need to create the destination directory first and type the p command from there, right?
<5> BuCKetHeaD27, it happens when you use the tools provided
<3> shanky: formatting does not matter
<2> sorry -> cp command
<5> HotDrive, yes, from what you said already I took it you had done that
<14> i use synaptic. its just everytime i go to install a program it says a certain package is not installed. I then install it through synaptic. But isn't there a way to install them automatically?
<15> how can i tell the remaining space on my disk from the terminal
<2> sorry, my bad
<16> rab: df -h
<3> rab df or df -h
<2> gonna try to create the directory and copy the files into it
<17> Anyone using streamtuner ?
<15> thanks
<5> !tell BuCKetHeaD27 about easysource
<2> or not... :(
<18> twager, yeah i use streamtuner
<18> it is great
<2> the make directory command is md?
<3> mkdir
<17> Can you tell me if it will connect to the Virgin nets with xmms ?
<2> thanks
<18> just a sec i usually only use it for shoutcast
<5> BuCKetHeaD27, read that URL it will stop some problems for you, however there are times you might not want to install certain packages so you have to be told or you could end up with a system you did not want
<9> ls: /dev/sd*: No existe el fichero directorio <- (It doesn't exist the file or directory)
<5> shanky, USB ?
<6> mkinitrd still won't work :(
<14> which url?
<13> lemur, according to the gaim faq that is how i must do it
<18> twager, is that live 365 ?
<9> ompaul: I'm asking about a sata hd, it has nothing to be with USB, I think
<2> isn't there a way to do all this opperations beeing root from the start?
<6> Where do I get mkinitrd from?
<17> Virgin Radio...
<3> elsie-dee: I haven't used gaim for at least a year, but using a new protocol was a matter of enabling and configuring a gaim plugin
<3> elsie-dee: what are you trying to do, exactly
<17> In Preselections..
<13> enable url catching for messenger protocols
<3> shanky: are you using the raid bios to create a sata raid?
<13> the gaimn plugin is part of it
<19> hello
<2> ok, I was abble to create the directory and copy the files... now I just have to delete the ones I copied first... the del command is?
<9> lemur: mmm, I didn't touch the bios
<9> I'm gonna check it
<19> how to unmount a network place in Remote places ?
<3> shanky: are you presenting a raid to linux, or just a single drive?
<20> I can connect wirelessly using f5d7011 pc card but have to manualy start the connection, is there a way of making it automatic?
<18> twager, i'm not geting anything 404 not found
<21> hey, i am completely new to linux, is there any particular beginners guide to help me get started? like how to add source urls to teh source list and how to install xtest extentions?
<18> it is there in the selections
<17> Thats great...So do I..I can get anything else but this barfed today...
<5> shanky, okay you can't mix ide and sata when installing its a dog - you need to use ide as the first drive iirc
<2> can anybody tell me the delete command?
<3> tdshiv, you might have a look at debian.org documentation, but you want to edit /etc/apt/sources.list
<17> I can ping the server ok though..
<2> ...or a way to enter as the root...
<22> hi everyone
<21> lemur, i tried to edit the list, but when i tried to replace teh existing file, it would not let me
<21> said i did not have the access permissions necessary
<3> tdshiv, if you are using ubuntu, you likely already have XTEST installed. You can check with 'xdpyinfo |grep XTEST'
<3> tdshiv, that file belongs to root, you must be root to replace that file
<21> how do i become root?
<3> sudo su -
<3> or if you just use vi
<22> gnomefreak: i remember you from yesterday....could you help me
<5> !tell HotDrive about commands
<5> !root
<23> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
<3> sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list
<21> ah i see, i am root now
<5> lemur, we don't tell people that version of the command
<3> :)
<9> ompaul: I have alreay installed kubuntu in the ide drive
<21> thanks lemur
<3> ompaul, sorry
<21> that was a huge help
<21> thanks again
<5> lemur, what should be there if at all is sudo -i
<3> won't happen again
<5> lemur, point them at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
<24> EmxBA: whats wrong?
<22> gnomefreak: thanks god! you remember me
<3> ompaul, good tip. I first used sudo last week. On BSD i have always su -l so...
<22> igo on PM
<24> give me a few days i could forget ;)
<3> afk, my children are fighting
<25> let 'em go.... when it's all done, maybe you get lucky and have one less mouth to feed. ;)
