I still have the image on my 1TB drive if anyone has any ideas. I attempted to detect the partition via testdisk, as well as an attempt to grab the file structure via sleuthkit. Neither worked.

Yea, I had tried getting testdisk to detect the partition, but I'm pretty sure I trashed the file allocation table and everything else important on the disk.

I managed to salvage all my music, etc...

I'm trying to recover my directory structure. Is there any way to do this?

No one?

Only in ad-hoc mode, though.
I have no issues connecting to any Infrastructure access points.

Yea, you should have a wireless icon on your gnome panel.
Click on it and it should pop up your available networks.

Now if you have your card installed and it isn't showing up in your panel,...

Oh, I forgot to mention I also used the ralink in windows. It was still disconnected after a few moments.

You might just try and start it without a daemon, that way you can get the output when it fails.

I'm not too sure where the log goes, though. It'd be nice to know in the future.

I have been trying to connect two laptops, Ubuntu and CrunchEee, for a day or two with limited success.

I have two network cards, both have been swapped between the two laptops. One is a Intel...

You don't really need a swap 2x the size of your RAM. Most people won't even notice if they don't have a swap.

The only time your swap will get used significantly will be if you hibernate, at...

You should check into making a separate home partition, it makes reinstallation a breeze.

It would be 2, because its zero based. (/dev/sda3 = hd0,2)

What might be your issue is your menu.lst is calling the wrong sections to boot from.

For your setup your /boot/grub/menu.list entry...

Oh f#&* that.

Both corrections fixed it. Thanks guys. :D

So I'm writing a quick install script for cmake builds, and I was having a problem with one thing: How do I test to see if a directory already exists?

Here is what I tried:


#!/bin/bash...

I imagine your problem is that it is NTFS and you didn't unmount it before you unplugged it.

Try this:

sudo fdisk -l

Find out which one is your external.

sudo mkdir /media/newdir
sudo...

For future reference, when you install use:



sudo apt-get install ntfs-config
sudo ntfs-config


Run that and check all the boxes, then you'll automount everything at startup and have...

....I think I love you.


It works perfectly, thanks for the patch.

It worked, I'm just getting an error doing the make install and I can't seem to figure it out.

I've used -fPIC to install my ffmpeg files as well as the openCV files, yet I still get this error:...

Thanks, I'm trying to install it with ffmpeg now, it recongnized it on ./configure.

No luck. I tried using xine but there is an error in OpenCV's code converting int to const *char. It won't include quicktime even if I specify it.

It still doesn't seem read my .avi files....maybe the code is wrong? :



int main( int argc, char** argv ) {
cvNamedWindow( "Example3", CV_WINDOW_AUTOSIZE );
g_capture =...

So I bothered to read through the config file and it seems I need to specify --with-gstreamer. Trying this now.

I have either downloaded from the repositories, or compiled from source almost anything related to xine, gstreamer, or ffmpeg.

However, no matter what I do I can not for the life of me get the...

Yea....I still don't know what is wrong.
