<kash> it's a vicious circle - no way around.
<lampi> kash: omg - a friend (of me) would say - just format it, then all will be good
<lampi> but dont do that
<Frogzoo> kash: which release & which kernel?
<mephis> hello
<kash> Frogzoo: Drapper + 2.6.15
<mephis> can any1 guide me how to mount a NTFS partition
<kash> i'm on 2.6.8 though, it's saying it needs 2.6.12 to be installed.
<lampi> boah, i dont know what i am doing here, here are just the professionals, i'll leave
<Frogzoo> !tell mephis about ntfs
<lampi> NTFS?!
<Frogzoo> lampi: this is ubuntu support - if you use ubuntu, you're welcome to stay
<kash> lampi: NT File System - used by Windows NT/2000/XP
<blueblood> "Fn"-key is stuck in IceWM ? - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=689687#post689687
<Rod> the ubuntu website is down for me, but i still have a question
<lampi> i know, i used it long time ago :), but thx
<Rod> I have ubuntu installed, afterwards I installed XP on a different partition... How to get grub back?
<kash> you seemed kind of alarmed
<kash> !tell rod -about grub
<Rod> Can it be done by chrooting into ubuntu?
<xerophyte> With KDE how can i store the session for example when i try to login i get around 4 gaim program strts and i need to close them .. how can i clean this
<Frogzoo> lampi: breezy is really straightforward - if you haven't tried ubuntu in a while, might be worth another go
<h2theizzo> !tell h2theizzo about vsftpd
<Toma-> Rod, yep
<lampi> mephis: dont use NTFS with linux, its quite possible but just belive me, its better you dont...
<h2theizzo> hm
<Frogzoo> !tell rod about grub
<h2theizzo> !tell h2theizzo about inet.conf
<kash> Frogzoo: i just did.
<Hivemind> Allright, I entered "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf", at the prompt entered the root p***word...And nothing happened. What next?
<h2theizzo> !tell h2theizzo about inetd.conf
<Toma-> Rod, actually, maybe.... aslong as you have the right /dev entries in the chroot system
<Rod> thanks, i expected the wiki to be down too
<kash> !tell h2theizzo -about inetd
<kash> oops
<tk> guesss i should see about redoing my partitions, seems Ubuntu isnt quite able to replace windows for me yet
<Frogzoo> Hivemind: pls - what do you get 4 command 'groups'
<kash> h2theizzo: man inetd.conf
<Tuxiscool> Hivemind: The user needs to be in the /etc/sudoers file.
<gnomefreak> god i hate when im right :(
<tk> hmmm
<Hivemind> frogzoo: I do not understand what you mean. I am rather new to Linux.
<ben__> hi
<Toma-> Frogzoo, adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev lpadmin scanner admin, and my user name
<tk> hmmm damn, I dont have a CD here :(
<lampi> Frogzoo: i am using breezy - 'til now its the only linux system wich worked longer than 2 days, and it is still running :) - sry but what does 'might be worth another go' mean (i'm german) - that i should or shouldnt use it?
<Frogzoo> Hivemind: just from the terminal, type 'groups' - what does it say?
<ben__> I am using a breezy with ProFTPD Version 1.2.10
<xerophyte> how can i install kdevelop i search apt-cache search kdevelop i got nothing
<Tuxiscool> Just out of curiosity, has anyone here met Mark Shuttleworth?
<Toma-> Frogzoo, oh :D
<Hivemind> "hivemind adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev lpadmin scanner"
<Rod> sure Tuxiscool
<Rod> Tuxiscool, i met him accidentally when I was on the moon
<ben__> I jhust want to know if I can do a symbolic link in my defaultroot
<Frogzoo> lampi: thought you meant you tried ubuntu long time ago - my mistake
<ajmitch_> Tuxiscool: sure, last time was a couple of days ago
<Frogzoo> Hivemind: who removed you from the admin group? the person who owns the pc?
<Tuxiscool> ajmitch_: LCA?
<ajmitch_> Tuxiscool: yes, and also the previous 2 ubuntu conferences
<Hivemind> I am the owner of the PC. This is a fresh install of Badger.
<Hivemind> I need to address my responses. >_<
<Tuxiscool> ajmitch_: Ah, cool. You enjoy his talk?
<owner> ?
<lampi> Frogzoo: its the first linux i like to use, i just have to learn the usage of the terminal and the right-system of unix
<ajmitch_> Tuxiscool: yes, it was quite good
<thierry> hi guys (and girls?)
<Frogzoo> lampi: try the online help - there's a getting started guide
<hyphenated> lampi: 'right-system' .. do you mean permissions?
<lampi> hyphenated: :D yes
<thierry> is anacron only usable by root? can any user use it?
<hyphenated> lampi: cool. knowing the right word will make it easier to find things on google, etc
<Hivemind> Frogzoo: This is a fresh install, just got my CDs in the mail. I do not know why I would not be in the admin group.
<lampi> hyphenated: hey, i am still learning english (and german and italian.. :D) ;)
<takedown> !edubuntu
<ubotu> edubuntu is probably an Ubuntu version suitable for cl***room use. See http://edubuntu.org or visit #edubuntu
<mephis> lampi, can you tell me why i shouldnt mount the ntfs partitions
<Frogzoo> Hivemind: did you set a p***word & user during the install?
<takedown> !xubuntu
<ubotu> I heard xubuntu is Ubuntu using XFCE instead of Gnome for the desktop. Details here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu
<mephis> Frogzoo, i have 2 ntfs partitions but i only want to mount 1 of them , can you show me how ?
<Hivemind> Frogzoo: Yessir, for the root and 'normal user'
<Frogzoo> mephis: ntfs works fine - but _read only_
<Frogzoo> Hivemind: you sure it asked for a root p***word?
<Hivemind> Frogzoo: Yes.
<mephis> Frogzoo, the documents u give me only show mount all windows partitions automatically
<lampi> mephis: when i tryed to use it the partition crashed (and before that it took a long time till i found out how to use it). i tryed to write on it. why dont u use fat if you want to use it with windows too
<Frogzoo> Hivemind: cat /etc/issue pls
<Frogzoo> mephis: run the script & then comment out the file systems you don't want mounted from /etc/fstab
<Hivemind> Frogzoo: "Ubuntu 5.10 "Breezy Badger" \n \l"
<lampi> mephis: but it wasnt ubuntu
<mephis> lampi, tell me more about that
<Frogzoo> Hivemind: can you try just 'su' & login with root pw?
<xerophyte> how can i get the kdevelop3 on the apt-get ???
<Hivemind> Frogzoo: Yes.
<hyphenated> I don't remember anny option to set a root p***word during installation
<Frogzoo> Hivemind: you now have a '#' prompt?
<Fujitsu> There wasn't one unless you chose expert.
<Toma-> Frogzoo, id suggest booting in recovery mode and adding his normal user account to admin group and also setting a root p***word from there.
<Hivemind> Frogzoo: Yes.
<Frogzoo> Toma-: not sure this is Hivemind's pc, to be honest...
<Toma-> or that...
<nubbe> hi, what is the name of the file to create in root to have a filessystemcheck at reboot?
<Toma-> mm
<mephis> Frogzoo, how to configure it that i can write on the new partition
<Hivemind> Frogzoo: It is.
<lampi> mephis: i dont how i did it but a short time it worked fine. then i tryed to write onto the partition, the chaos was perfect... after that i've formatted the partition with fat32 - i now can use it twice, with windows and ubuntu - it works fine
<Toma-> Hivemind, now youre in sudo , run "adduser hivemind admin"
<Frogzoo> mephis: u can't write to ntfs partitions - it's not supported
<Toma-> ahhh
<Fujitsu> Yet.
<Frogzoo> Toma-: wrong command, sir
<Hivemind> Frogzoo: "adduser: The group `admin' does not exist."
<Toma-> indeedw rong command
<Toma-> or maybe not...
<Hivemind> Frogzoo: Perhaps the group adm?
<mephis> lampi, thanks for that , but i cant use fat32 anymore, my disks are ntfs formatted
<Eds> you can convert NTFS to fat32
<thierry> does anybody know if "anacron" may be use as a normal user (different than root)
<gnomefreak> mephis: sure you can you just have to format them :(
<Toma-> Hivemind, youre already in the adm group
<Eds> Partition magic will convert them
<zace> re
<lampi> mephis: dont u have some free space maybe on a removable, or put it onto a dvd
<mephis> Frogzoo, i cant do as you said but the script mounted all the partition
<Eds> I just have everything ext2 and install a windows driver. Seems stable so far
<redblade> Hi I was wondering how to unzip .rar. archives
<gnomefreak> !unrar
<ubotu> gnomefreak: Syntax error in line 1
<johndarkhorse> redblade: install unrar-nonfree
<gnomefreak> !rar
<ubotu> hmm... rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression
<Frogzoo> mephis: now 'sudo vi /etc/fstab' & remove the partitions u don't want
<mephis> how can i mount 1 of my 2 partitions only
<mephis> yeah
<mephis> thanks
<Frogzoo> mephis: please make sure you only delete the windows partitions :)
<redblade> does it cost anything?
<kestas> do duplexes always have a unit number? like A/11 Blah Drive
<Fujitsu> No, redblade.
<johndarkhorse> redblade: only your time
<Fujitsu> nonfree meaning not Open Source.
<redblade> Where do i get it from then?
<johndarkhorse> ubotu: tell redblade about repos
<johndarkhorse> redblade: enable the universe and multiverse repos
<lampi> ahh, another question: what are those universe and multiverse packages?!
<thierry> how do you launch periodic and automatic backup of your files ?
<gnomefreak> ubotu tell lampi about universe
<Frogzoo> lampi: go into synaptic - select 'repos' & enable multiverse, universe
<Toma-> thierry, make a cron job
