| YetiChick | bokey: I know what Eipc720 means. |
| b33r | oh k |
| iamjk | dyrne: grub does it's thing, then the screen flickers then nothing |
| Flare183 | Can I get some help?, I can't mount my MP3 player |
| zitch | hamlet: actually, for all of my ragging on XFS, I would consider it if I was doing video-processing or something that needs a large amount of scratch space. |
| knoppix_ | j was already going through ubuntu,com however |
| mwe | Flare183: well mine just pops up as an usb disk |
| b33r | anyone know how to mount a partition? |
| kitche | bokey: then you have to get it fromt heri website |
| Epic720 | YetiChick: I just would like to be able to format the array in ext3 |
| Flare183 | mwe:>my does nothing |
| bokey | kitche, heri website ? |
| YetiChick | Epic720: Then it's just basically "mkfs.ext3 -j </dev/whatever>". |
| kitche | bokey: clamav website |
| mwe | Flare183: do you know if it's behaving as a standard usb drive? |
| petr478 | b33r sudo mount /dev/device /media/something |
| bokey | kitche, i found a backport for edgy @ http://www.ricky-chan.co.uk/ubuntu/dists/dapper/main/binary-i386/ |
| Flare183 | mwe:> it works fine on windows |
| octol | b33r; "mount -t ext3 -o <options> /dev/<device> /mnt/<mountpoint" |
| mwe | Flare183: or supposed to be |
| YetiChick | Epic720: Assuming you want a journal - which you probably do. |
| mwe | Flare183: yeah. like a normal external usb drive? |
| Epic720 | YetiChick: ok, which do I use? /dev/mapper/pcb_BLAH, or /dev/sda? Because sda is just the single drive |
| kitche | bokey: ok so use that then since that's for dapper not edgy |
| Pricey | kitche, bokey, that's not a backport, its a 3rd party repository |
| Flare183 | mwe:> yeah |
| bokey | kitche, could any canonical dev atleast put it in the main edgy backports ? |
| mwe | Flare183: hmm. |
| bokey | Pricey, it's not i know. |
| RedLobster | dear god, i just talked to some people in the haiku team (beos clone) and they are keeping the beos api, naming functions "b_draw_window" for instance, instead of e.g. "haiku_draw_window". |

|
| dyrne | iamjk: sounds like another issue but if you have the livecd you could try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2404557 |
| bokey | :) |
| kitche | Pricey: I know it's not a backport |
| hamlet | zitch: cool. but the speed turned to a second important property for me (next to reliability) after losing data |
| Pricey | bokey, request a backport then |
| kitche | bokey: umm they don't accept packages from 3rd party |
| YetiChick | Epic720: You have more than one drive, right? |
| mwe | Flare183: I'd check if the usb modules were loaded. usb_storage is essential I think. ehci-hcd etc |
| Epic720 | YetiChick: yes, 2 |
| Juanca | Hi everybody. How can I clean up my repositories? |
