okay, well, I've successfully managed to mount and umount my sd card and usb key several times, but by hand and as root, only...I'd like them to automount, and be user accessible. Now, I think I can edit /etc/fstab to do this with the sd card, but for somereason, the location of the usbkey seems to change each time I plug it in, so I don't know how I would manage that in /etc/fstab, unless this uuid remains the same, but I haven't
i can try
so does anyone know how i can restore my /dev/sda3? fdisk doesnt see it. im out of space on my / partition
guys i dont mean to be a bother but can u plz help me change resolutions?

tonytraductor: try to use the LBEL option in fstab
I did with my HD
oddly, I've never heard of the "LBEL option"
tonytraductor: I meant LABEL
wrektjet Use livecd and remove stuff from /var/cache/apt/archives
oh
wrektjet: did fdisk ever see the partition 3 on that disk? if so what was it? did you change it? if so what to?
I'm still going to have to go google that...
man the fstab, and read it
tonytraductor careful with labels, done wrong will format the partition
qazavul: if you say my name in the chat I can see that you talked to me. Also, I found this link via google: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7317260
cabrey I did that and went back to network and still the same
tonytradcutor: just look up the manual inyour shell: man fstab. it gives you also examples
doesnt work :
Anybody know link for manual IP STATIC config in 8.10, which explain the user trick to complain with th e bug.. kind of set and go back into the network manager a second time to keep settings after reboot?
I'm trying to access the web interface of Nagios and it keeps asking me to download the *.php file any ideas why?
timposey, you might have to log out and back in for the effect to kick in -- or sometimes even reboot
where can i find all the desktops available for ubuntu with screenshots?
for the sdcard I'm just going to /dev/sdb1 /media/canon auto noautor,user,exec 0 0

mdm yes it once did i was changing it with someones help on irc and he bailed on me midway thru. we were editing fstab. i was moving the SO files from sda3 to the smaller sda2. so we did that part. but we never got the other partitioon mouinted again
tonytraductor: I found my bookmark:>> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
*so = os (ubuntu operating system)
tonytraductor: and I also used this link:>>>http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?&t=283131

Trijntje: get a better client - ubuntu native like transmission - I cannot support azereus
Trijntje, also try Deluge
can we get 3d with nouveau drivers?
mdm the unmounted partition (sda3 containg sda5 and sda6) was at /boot originally
tonytraductor http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283131
fccf: you think i should wipe and go with a fresh install?
wrektjet: there is a very small chance, if you know where the partion was, did not change it to spread out another partion, did not extend it, that you can put it back. Other then that the disk label is just a table to where things are on the disk, there is no backup and if anything changed the info in that space its gone
Jack_Sparrow> apparently we had the same problem before...jeje
I do an "scp linuxlab:svn.tgz ." which nicely copies the file but then when at 100% gives me the error "svn.tgz: Invalid argument".. what could be causing this?
giiker I use that page alot
Trijntje is there a way to make ubuntu read my mp3
fccf: ok, ill look into that. Transmission is a bit to simple for my needs. Thanks for the tip
mdm i dont need any data from the parrtiton
hi
cabrey: Ill look into Deluge, thanks
g0epx
mdm i just want to make fstab see it so i can mount it and start using the space
wrektjet: pastebin a fdisk -l
Trijntje: I take it you do alot of seeding
ahiyn

Trijntje: srry uts the link again
sorry here's url http://paste.ubuntu.com/187669/
qazavul: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7317260
wrektjet: you cant mount /dev/sda3 I assume you want to mount /dev/sda6? or did you not care what it was and wanted to extend /dev/sda2 over it?
stables666 ty for using the pastebin
Trijntje: Did you know that by going to right click on a torrnet and details - gives you quite a bit of control on how things get seeded
no probs just need answer now
no i wanted to have the os files ona diff partition in case anything went worng in the future
stables666: the answer is easy xampp-linux-1.7.1.tar.gz does not exist in your home directory
when i say mount sda3 i guess i meant to say mount sda5 and sda6 which are logical drives within sda3 (i think)
Trijntje ty
hi

Hey guys, is there a portable version of firefox for linux?
mdm sorry i dont follow ....
anyone knows if there is any script/plugin for irssi to alert me of new msgs within irsii?
"Leaving"
ralmar: the portable apps only work in windows...

tonytraductor, very funny
oh yeah, and I also have firefox on my hardy cloudbook
hi all, anyone knows how to create a COW (copy-on-write) for UML? I can't find any info on the internet.... thanks
mdm so if u look at this fstab u see that sda6 is identified as /boot --http://paste.ubuntu.com/187656/ id like to get that recognized somehow im not sure what i am lacking
fccf: you are right, there are more options than i first thought. Thanks again
when i make laptop sleep mode , when i resume it the sound go out i need to restart so it come back ! should i mount the sound again to work after resuming from the sleep mode
stables666: do you understand directory structure? ~ means the home directory or litteraly /home/ your desktop is a directory in that directroy called Desktop. If you have more then one Desktop2 etc. The file was downloaded to your Desktop not your home directory
mdm sorry here it is again http://paste.ubuntu.com/187656/
tonytraductor: cloudbook? what, you load your os or FF from the net?!
so what line would i right in the terminal

I do an "scp linuxlab:svn.tgz ." which nicely copies the file but then when at 100% gives me the error "svn.tgz: Invalid argument".. what could be causing this?
wrektjet: do you have /main mounted?
no
mdm no
mdm only /
stables666: I already told you, cd Desktop and type the same command, alternately append /home//Desktop to the filename
"Leaving"
hmmm....I can ls /dev/disk/by-uuid and by-id, but not by-label...maybe hardy doesn't support by-label?
wrektjet: type mount -a does it give you an error, or does it mount /main?
mdm: ok I'll try that
no, the cloudbook has hardy herron installed, oem configured even
ACTION hopes that there are some apt-pros here atm :o
mdm: mount: mount point /main does not exist
I was going to upgrade to jaunty, but the guy I got it from on ebay recommended against, since this version of hardy was oem configured for the hardware
sven_oostenbrink: is it possible that the current directory isn't writable?
tonytraductor: it supports it fine, you have to HAVE lables for it to be created tho
tonytraductor: jaja!!
On that certain package I have the flags rHR
wrektjet: sudo mkdir /main

Slart: shit, you nailed it.. :) but why not say something usefull like.. well, say... disk full maybe? :) instead of invalid argument? I spent 15 minutes looking in to the scp documentation to see what by god I was doing wrong.. :)
stables666: cd into the directory and do a 'ls'
