[06:12]<rrvyjfj>andrewski what does loadkeys does
[06:12]<bzjrmrrsv>how do i install it
[06:12]<rdp>yeah, ok. I taught linux admin for a few years and made everyone use console only. But I see ur point.
[06:12]<zgmznwscy>Broadcast: use synaptic or apt-get. tell me which and i'll tell you how.
[06:13]<ffrv>mke2fs -j is friendly enough IMHO
[06:13]<zzzzdf>!info gparted
[06:13]<u2jvu>gparted: partition editor for GNOME. In repository main, is optional. Version 0.1-0ubuntu9 (dapper), package size 232 kB, installed size 1280 kB
[06:13]<rrvyjfj>andrewski ok found the info
[06:13]<zgmznwscy>Broadcast: you'll rarely have to download a .tar.bz2 yourself.
[06:13]<zpzu_dgvnz_pfd>just a quick question, is there any way to read nstf or do i need to format my windows partition to FAT32
[06:13]<zgmznwscy>Broadcast: let ubuntu do all the heavy lifting. :)
[06:14]<dzjrpzjrrd>i used easyubuntu, but i still cant play wmv videos. does it not include those drivers
[06:14]<zgmznwscy>aqau_inter_fly: you can read ntfs, and you can even write to it (but with beta software). let me know if you'd like more info.
[06:14]<rdp>reading is no problem writing to ntfs is a whole other story
[06:14]<zgmznwscy>!coders
[06:14]<u2jvu>I know nothing about coders - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:14]<zgmznwscy>!codecs
[06:14]<u2jvu>For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[06:14]<bzjrmrrsv>andrewski, how do i let ububtu do it
[06:14]<zgmznwscy>Broadcast: 'sudo apt-get install gparted'
[06:14]<zpzu_dgvnz_pfd>andrewski: of course i would like to know more (i don't feel like formatting to FAT32
[06:14]<zgmznwscy>amf: not a problem, actually. ntfs-3g works... for me, anyway.
[06:14]<dzjrpzjrrd>yeah i know all about the restricted formats oage
[06:15]<rdp>yeah.. litlle leary of it, but if it works for you, cool.
[06:15]<zgmznwscy>ironfroggy: ok... so what's the problem then? do you have everything installed? which program are you using?
[06:15]<bzjrmrrsv>heh
[06:15]<bzjrmrrsv>thanks
[06:15]<bzjrmrrsv>:)
[06:15]<zgmznwscy>aqau_inter_fly: ntfs-3g is the driver. there's a howto on the forums; i can search for it in a few if you can't.
[06:15]<zgmznwscy>Broadcast: did you get that?
[06:15]<dzjrpzjrrd>andrewski: i was only asking if easyubuntu is supposed to install them automatically.
[06:16]<bzjrmrrsv>yeah
[06:16]<zgmznwscy>ironfroggy: dunno... maybe the wiki would say?
[06:16]<bzjrmrrsv>worked
[06:16]<bzjrmrrsv>but wait
[06:16]<bzjrmrrsv>with gparted, do i have to format
[06:16]<rdp>anyone else use "automatix" to install all the audeo codecs and other goodies?
