"star trek is on with Q and the Borg"

why would it then be skipping things and just syncing one folder?

Barridus, are there any new files in the directories not being synced?

Barridus, rsync only copies over files that have been modified or new files.

everything should be "new" as rsync is concerned. the destination is a new empty folder

Barridus, it ignores those that already exist and have the same timestamps.

ciao

Barridus, if you want to synchronize two folders, bidirectional copying, look into unison

!list

This is not a file sharing channel (or network). If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot »

regeya, well i want to at least get a 1directional backup going here before i risk things with a bidirectional i may goof up. so nobody knows why stuff is being skipped that does not already exist in the destination of rsync?

Is there a special chennel for install questions?

hi, does anyone have a good script at detecting hardware that lspci or lshw doesnt detect?

Specifically, I want to install ubuntu onto an SD card and boot from in on my Toshiba Satellite

how come Ubuntu for powerpc is slower than Ubuntu for i386? I noticed the difference on my ps3

zaccour: depends on the hardware

i'd say because your powerpc cpu has no power

:x

tritium, cell processor

in

zaccour: vs. which Intel chip?

Is there a tutorial for an ftp server with a gui?

Does anyone know of an easy to use program that can convert FLV into Ogg?

tritium, one would thing the ps3 hardware would soar

Tetracomm, devede should do it

Tetracomm, its a frontend to mencoder

Cool, there is an Adobe Acrobat Reader of linux, who would have guessed lol

macman_, be sure to update first though

macman_, aptitude dist-upgrade # but apparently you shouldn't use this method anymore .. see !upgrade

troubles with sound driver!!!

yea

kewl1: perhaps you should try asking a question, if you're seeking assistance.

!ask

Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-)

kewl1: make sure all your volum controls are all the way up

except for Ubuntu I always have issues with no sound lol

sorry, never been a dual-boot guy. I always use separate harddrives for different OS

is there a way i can tell firefox to 'safely' exit from commandline ?

hm.

ok ill try it. i cn only see if it loads up

can anyone tell me where to get GRUB?

hopefully that will work :) thanks

I would like to setup a windows virtual machine that can be used remotely by macs, windows, and ubuntu computers on our network. Is there anything specific anyone can recommend to accomplish this task?

"Ex-Chat"

geek1: google mang

barridus: sudo rm folder

neeto: whats mang?

xenor: what advice do you have for putting the driver on a usb drive?

jon23d: just need to setup remote desktop on the windows computer

jon23d, rm: cannot remove `/media/USB': Is a directory

hi, does anyone have a good script at detecting hardware that lspci or lshw doesnt detect?

Barridus: that is a device, unmount it?

why do that? driver on usb?

|rt|: ty

Stupidave: The usb should be fat so that it is more easily read

hello, i'm using drivel to write blog. but when i hit the post button, error msg appear like this "java.lang.NullPointerException"

can someone help me merge two drives in ubuntu?

ubuntu can use other flash formats

it is not, jon. sounds like it would be, but it's a subfolder that got copied into the USB folder somehow. they're local to /

alrighty

and I assume you are running windows setup and need a driver?

delte it then

yuck windows

barridus: or, rm /media/USB/* -R

give it up and go full on ubuntu linux

barridus: that will clear everythning off that drive

jon23d: alternatively vnc will work...but remote desktop (rdp) will give your users a better experience....if they can remember to log off when they are done and not just disconnect

the USB drive is unplugged

lol

usb flash drive?

xenor: yes trying to run XP nd i get the HDD not found error

|rt!: thanks, its been years... hopefull this will be as easy as ubuntu

jon23d: we use it at work on a couple of machines with quickbooks on it that the various people that need access to that app can use

fade xp

|rt|: that is EXACTLY what I need lol

jon23d: you can also setup windows servers to automatically reset in users do not "log out"

jon23d: and we are looking to moving alot of desktops to thinclients and vm's

|rt|: I bought a super computer and gave everyone else dumb clients

jon23d, thank you - problem resolved

Stupidave: What filesystem/partition have you set up on that hard drive? Is it scsi? Is it connected to a motherboard controller or pci controller?

Any recommendations for a good network diagramming program with good art?

i'm not sure how files got into /media/USB that aren't on the actual USB drive, maybe i clowned a script at some point

delte it

have no idea. its inside my laptop

what a clowned script?

im sure that its scsi tho

my thre are all flash

the ipod i think is sd

Stupidave: it its in your laptop, then it is either ide or sata and it is an onboard controller

Stupidave: *if

an work being done to make the new ipod shuffle work with ubuntu?

Devede is for DVDs and cds, not creating AVIs. :(

Stupidave: My guess is that either 1) it cannot recognize the partition to do the setup

i definitly need to load the driver tho during install

even a total fresh install wont work

Is there a tutorial for an ftp server with a gui?

Stupidave: 2) the hardware was released after whichever version of XP you have was released

ipod question

jon23d: did you see my msg?

ok so how do i find the driver?

|rt|: no

if the new ipod works with ubuntu let me know

Chaorain: there is no ftp server with a gui.

its the long black buton less ipod shuffle btw

Stupidave: Do a web search for your model of laptop and floppy drivers...usually the support site from the manufacturer will have that..

tritium: ok is there a detailed giude for a non gui ftp server?

"Ex-Chat"

Stupidave: for example, my laptop is a Toshiba Satellite, and it runs the intel 945X chipset...so both the Intel support site and the Toshiba support site have drivers

Thinking about upgrading to ubuntu 9.04 alpha 2, anyone know if the warning about the proprietary nvidia drivers not working is still true?

tritium: Nintendo DS. I'm trying to backup a game

Stupidave: Which series?

Chaorain: then read the above info regarding setting up an ftpd.

a series

intel core 2 duo

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-180/+bug/308410 shows the status as fixed released for the 180 drivers, so that means the drivers work in 9.04 now, right?

I'm wondering if there is a way to install a recent flash player ( the actual player, not the firefox plugin )

hello, i want to install windows using an ubuntu PXE server, the remote machine take correctly an IP but it dont boot, i have some question somebody can help me? (sorry for my english)

Stupidave: similar problem to yours...might set you in the right direction..

What should I do after downgrading my graphics drivers?

Stupidave: please look for similar problems on the net, as the problem is really more of a windows one and not an ubuntu/linux

Stupidave: the expertise may not be here to help you..

yea i hear ya thanks tho

this is a pain....

I'll try again, has anyone had experience installing/running ubuntu from and SD card on a laptop?

xenor: I did it yesterday

Xenor, i did it from a USB

Stupidave: one of many reasons to go to Vista...I've also heard that an XP with SP3 inline can do it as well..

ok then... IF

jon23d: I used the iso image to boot and then installed to SD, which I think went fine..but I'm having problem getting my machine to boot from the SD

i install said cd on a virtual machine in vbox, and do all the updates to get to SP3, can i creat an iso?

xenor: did you set it to boot in the bios?

or something?

how would i do that?

Hey i'm on IRSSI in tty6, I need help with getting back into X (Ctrl+Alt+F7 isn't working, it just has a cursor)

it works fine in virtualbox....

X is still there because if I type startx, it says it is running.

stupid windows.....

What is the command to get back into X from terminal?

Stupidave: it has been a loooong time since I've created inline SP on XP installs....so...you'll have to web search for the how to on that..

ok

just splice it lots of tutorials on doing so
