| Number2 | sweet thanks |
| SolidSource | SilentDis: have you tried just editing the fstab file in kde? that might get it to mount it automatically |
| Jucato | Number2: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/kde |
| Number2 | will it show up in my gdm |
| SilentDis | SolidSource: it's already setup properly... is there a tool I need to use specifically? |
| Number2 | k |
| SolidSource | SilentDis: not if the fstab has it and the linked folder exists... |
| SilentDis | SolidSource: they both do, I'm still not finding a tool to allow me to mount it on demand though :( |
| gekko_ | Excuse me, can anybody tell me where I can find commandline applications? Like "madplay" and things I had in other distributions? :) or at least a list of packages I can install with sudo apt-get install? |
| SilentDis | SolidSource: in /etc/fstab - /dev/ndas-00110749:0p1 /media/netdisk vfat defaults,user,noauto 0 0 SolidSource: and the /media/netdisk folder exists. I can issue a 'mount /media/netdisk' as user and it works. |
| SolidSource | SilentDis: hmm |
| SilentDis | SolidSource: I'd have fstab mount it for me, but due to when the driver for it loads, that doesn't work. I basically have to 'wait' till i'm in user space to mount it. |
| SolidSource | SilentDis: is it a NAS? |
| SilentDis | SolidSource: it's a Ximeda Netdisk, NDAS is the name they've given to the tech it uses. it's not NAS |
| SolidSource | SilentDis: ok... |
| SilentDis | SolidSource: it is a network access disk, but it came out just as/just before they became all the rage, and thus uses a propriatary driver and such. |
| SolidSource | SilentDis: I have no idea |
| Alonea | ok, I can't get Mplayer to compile... |
| SilentDis | SolidSource: it's all setup on the backend, basically. I just need a kde tool to allow me to mount/unmount it. I could go with gdesklets i suppose, but that's a lot of extra overhead I'd like to avoid |
| Alonea | and it seems every file I try to install on adept fails, but when I go back to try again it says installed... |
| SolidSource | SilentDis: yeah, kcontrol should take care of it |
| SilentDis | SolidSource: checking out System Services in System Settings... I show kde-guidance as stopped. is that the tool that does this? also, should I switch off gdm and switch on kdm? |
| Alonea | yup. anything I install it says it fails partway through installation but says installed when I go back to it... |
| SolidSource | SilentDis: don't know...that service isn't running here...though it runs on boot SilentDis: and the kdm thing, I doubt will fix, but who knows |
| SilentDis | SolidSource: checking out service manager now... SolidSource: KDED Media Manager shows as running... |
| Orange1 | how do i see whats taking all my cpu resources? |
| SolidSource | SilentDis: can't find anything like that on my system |
| SilentDis | SolidSource: I didn't expect 'perfect' in this transition. for now, I can hit the konsole when I need to mount it, but I will do some searching and probably pop in here from time to time to ask again on this one :) SolidSource: overall though... as I'm poking around I see some rather nice features. Amarok for one is lightyears better than Exaile! is, heh. |
| SolidSource | SilentDis: yeah, if I wanted both kde and gnome, I would have to go with a different distro....but I hate gnome, so don't worry about |
| Alonea | ok, how do I load the root version of konqueror? kdesu konqueror doesn't work. Get X Error: BadDevice, invalid or unitialized input device 166 |
| SolidSource | alonea: that error is fine |
| SilentDis | SolidSource: eh. gnome isn't bad, it does have it's limiting moments though, which is why i'm exploring elsewhere. |
| Alonea | SolidSource: Ok, then how do I load it? |
| Silveira_Neto | alonea: xhost +;kdesu konqueror |
