[13:57]<cjzfjzzf_dyzrn>well, ubuntu can repartition that 20G hdd into a 19G with a 512MB partition next to it.
[13:57]<lrwrg>so i should not choose the manul partition

[13:57]<cxzzfyn>fyrestrtr: NthDegree : bad news
[13:58]<lrwrg>then

[13:58]<myr2fj7n>brw
[13:58]<myr2fj7n>btw*
[13:58]<fzs1z>Hello, i have returned*
[13:58]<cjzfjzzf_dyzrn>pawan, I'd use windows to make the partitions now since you can see and know what ones have data in them.
[13:59]<myr2fj7n>should I also write a guide on how to downgrade a 2.50 or 2.60 psp via wine on ubuntu?
[13:59]<zzmaxjyffn>What is the actual app/command that is launched when I choose System -> Quit? I want to put this into my desktop right-click menu.
[13:59]<cjzfjzzf_dyzrn>right click My Computer -> Manage
[13:59]<fzs1z>I was asked the model and type of my wireless lan adapter, Brand: Sparklan , Model: WL-660R
[14:00]<nvxdnzznn>Charlie, read the wiki then
[14:00]<lrwrg>then
[14:00]<fzs1z>i hope there is a certain person who can tell me how to install the wlan acrd card
[14:00]<nvxdnzznn>there´s a whole article of instructions on how to do it
[14:00]<cjzfjzzf_dyzrn>pawan, Disk Manager I think
[14:01]<lrwrg>yes
[14:01]<isnnisnn>if my apps gets stuck how can I forcibly close it ?
[14:01]<isnnisnn>like in windows I use alt-ctrl-del
[14:01]<2w9ac>!xvid
[14:01]<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
[14:01]<cxzzfyn>Let me explain more: I use ubuntu installation CD, during the installation(actually, not in real installation stage yet, even not the step of selecting mouting point),I think it is trying to set up X for next installation steps.. Then it aborts, The screen says something that "restart gdm after update.....". And then I think it goes to one of the "terminal console" and gives me command line prompt
[14:01]<2jgsry>IseeIsee, there's a forcequit applet, you can add it to you panel (right-click on panel "add to panel")
[14:02]<lrwrg>then
[14:02]<lrwrg>i am see aall the partition
[14:02]<cjzfjzzf_dyzrn>pawan, delete the partition that is empty
[14:02]<cxzzfyn>Now my problem becomes --- after I modified the xorg.conf, how can I resume the previous installation?
[14:02]<lrwrg>how
[14:03]<cjzfjzzf_dyzrn>pawan, right click it
[14:03]<lrwrg>it is showing
[14:03]<lrwrg>healthy unkoun part
[14:03]<cjzfjzzf_dyzrn>unknown?
[14:03]<lrwrg>twoo
[14:03]<lrwrg>yes
[14:04]<cxzzfyn>in other linux distribution, I can do it in text mode firstly and then config X. But looks like ubuntu 6.0.6 1st CD does not provide such option.....
[14:04]<cjzfjzzf_dyzrn>it should show on the left a hdd, then on the right several blocks of partitions.
[14:04]<zzmaxjyffn>http://img82.imageshack.us/img82/359/mygnomecp1.png
[14:04]<lrwrg>yes
[14:04]<lrwrg>it is
[14:04]<zzmaxjyffn>oops, sorry, wrong window
[14:05]<lrwrg>my two partition are ext2
[14:05]<lrwrg>but it is not showing ext2
[14:05]<lrwrg>it is showing helathy unkown
[14:05]<fzs1z>a simply question
[14:05]<lrwrg>should i delete those two logical partition
[14:05]<rjndruax>my friends Nforce2 Asus board won't recognize his Raid0 SATA setup, when he shuts down the live cd it says the RAID monitoring failed, any ideas?
[14:06]<fzs1z>i have 2 HDD's, 1 for windows XP, other one for ubunto to play around of a bit, and i don't have a floppy drive. Now i got my driver for my wlan card, how do i transfer it from my winxp HDD to my floppy HDD without burning 300 kb to a cd?
[14:06]<pdznsvzvz>IseeIsee: from a console, run xkill then left click on the window of the application you want to close.
[14:07]<da99>hey, is it possible to make the shutdown command not require a sudo password so I can run it as a cron job?
[14:07]<fzs1z>***my winxp HDD to my UBUNTU HDD without burning 300 kb to a cd?
[14:07]<pdznsvzvz>las3r: are both hdd on the same machine?
[14:07]<cjzfjzzf_dyzrn>pawan, How is it ext2 if it didn't install?
[14:07]<cxzzfyn>Ommm, once I reboot, the xorg.conf I changed will be lost.... that's the problem. Can someone help me?
[14:08]<fzs1z>yup
[14:08]<awyffu>las3r: just mount the xp partition
[14:08]<fzs1z>on it right now
[14:08]<lrwrg>i done it manually
[14:08]<fzs1z>i'm very new to ubuntu and linux
[14:08]<awyffu>las3r: ubuntu has ntfs read support
[14:08]<lrwrg>using norton partition magic
[14:08]<awyffu>!ntfs > las3r
[14:08]<pdznsvzvz>Charlie: download the alternate install cd, do the minimal server install, then install ubuntu-desktop and configure X manually.
[14:08]<zzmaxjyffn>mc44: you can run /sbin/shurdown as a cronjob with sudo crontab -e. /sbin/shutdown -r now for a reboot or /sbin/shutdown -h now for a shutdown.
[14:08]<lrwrg>from fat32 to ext2
[14:08]<mrjumrn>what is the command to see what type of network card you are running?
[14:09]<lrwrg>then
[14:09]<pdznsvzvz>DaJudge: what *type*?
[14:09]<2uznln>I got a Japanese keyboard and the button with the opposite of [ is putting out \ Can I change it?
[14:09]<cjzfjzzf_dyzrn>pawan don't worry about type ubuntu wil handle it.
[14:09]<awyffu>las3r: msg me if you need a hand with it
[14:09]<fzs1z>Okay thank you very much for the information
[14:09]<lrwrg>then how to install
[14:09]<fzs1z>I'll be trying it out :)
[14:09]<awyffu>but it should be pretty straightforward, if cryptic
[14:09]<fzs1z>THanks again!
[14:09]<awyffu>np
[14:09]<mrjumrn>fyrestrtr: im trying to get the info on my network card.. what terminal command is it that displays this info?
[14:09]<cxzzfyn>fyrestrtr: Yes, that should work... but that takes time to download and burn CD(even install via HDD)... so just trying to see if there is other ways....
[14:09]<pdznsvzvz>burepe: yes, you can edit the keyboard mapping and change it.
[14:09]<2uznln>how
[14:09]<pdznsvzvz>DaJudge: ifconfig
[14:09]<2uznln>?
[14:10]<da99>ardchoille: great, thanks!
[14:10]<zzmaxjyffn>mc44: You're welcome :)
[14:10]<pdznsvzvz>burepe: I don't know about japanese keyboards, but look for an alternate keyboard mapping is /usr/share/xmodmap/ and then when you find one, xmodmap /usr/share/xmodmap/xmodmap.xx (where xx is the one you found)
[14:10]<lrwrg>should i again format it from here
[14:11]<mrjumrn>fyrestrtr: that doesnt display the type of card it is.. sorry if I am not explaining my question very well.
[14:11]<cjzfjzzf_dyzrn>pawan right clicking the partition you want to install doesn't give you the delete option
[14:11]<cjzfjzzf_dyzrn>?
[14:11]<pdznsvzvz>DaJudge: you are not.
[14:11]<lrwrg>it gives delete option
