@ pidsley - yea, this makes more sense, thanks @ machinebacon Sure thing: 26 Aug 13 | 23:59:43 ~ $ apt-cache policy pcmanfm pcmanfm: Installed: (none) Candidate: 1.1.2-1 Version table: 1.1.2-1 0 500 http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ unstable/main amd64 Packages 1.1.1-0r0 0 200 http://packages.siducti...

Hey guys ... Certainly you can ask, pidsley, and what you say does make sense. Bit of History: When I came from W2K to Linux (Ubuntu) I had problems even getting a data partition I could use. So I went about doing what I could - searching and asking. I was angry that "I" couldn't mount (at...

@Sector11; which flavor are you running? Just curious:) A stripped down, gutted and mutilated version of another OS that is Debian SID. Just applied the BBQ sources.list to it this am - less the bbq repos - have to ask about that. I call it: 26 Aug 13 | 16:15:46 ~ $ lsb_release -ds Sector11 0.01 26...

@ machinebacon complicated ... from you ... ????? udisk I don't know - will research disk-manager I have: but it doesn't give me ownership ... just mount/unmount and mountpoint - I tried changing Options to sector11 - no go. :( here you go: 26 Aug 13 | 14:02:38 ~ $ sudo blkid -o list [sudo] password...

umm... the first hit in this search (on "siduction public key"): https://startpage.com/do/search?key=%22siduction%20public%20key%22 would give you the answer. right here: http://siduction.org/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&p=29023#29023 hahahahaha - Oops! I saw the: keyrin...

@ wuxmedia I hate being called an expert. 'knowledgeable' is better. ex = has been ... (s)pert = a drip under pressure. so for me you're 'knowledgeable' on the subject. :D And that 'workaround' is pretty slick as well. I wounder if I had done those 2 gpg steps and then apt-cache search keyring if it...

@ pidsley OK ... Thank you very much. Which only goes to show words are important! how do i get the siduction keys vs siduction public key apt-cache search keyring showed nothing as it's not here so ...I got it!

As seen here. Busy day yesterday ... 2nd of 2 posts looking for help. In preparation of moving ahead deleted three partitions /media/5, 6 & 7 and created /media/5 - my docs, downloads, images, conkys, videos etc etc /media/6 - darkside root /media/7 - darkside home /media/8 - bbq test root /medi...

Busy day yesterday ... 1st of 2 posts looking for help. In preparation of moving ahead, I deleted three partitions /media/5, 6 & 7 and created /media/5 - my docs, downloads, images, conkys, videos etc etc (was a 'tad' nervous for this one) - - the backup (rsync): copied over perfectly! /media/6 ...

Nooo ... I couldn't more than a couple of few minutes of that "review"! So that's Rotten meat I read about.
OK, I'm going to wash my ears now....

OH .. OK, thanks for the heads-up.

hahahaha yea, kids are intuitive aren't they. Your little girl is growing up in the best of both worlds:
World One: Linux + TUI.
World Two: point and click.

I'll give VirtualBox a look.

What's wrong with deb-multimedia? You suggest "apt" over "aptitude"? I used "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" up until a short time ago. Love aptitude show and search functions. Iceweasel came in fine. :D I noticed siduction in linuxbbq-darkside...

First things first: Thanks for starting this DJ. Second: HardMetal-CLI: ain't gonna happen here 'for a while', and when it does; it will be a small partition on it's own, not even mounting the other partitions for my use only. I'm an old timer that has trouble typing, (3.5 fingers lookin' at the key...

@ the baconator - Not afraid of wiping my drive at all. I've done it may times I have my backups. And you read my mind on the "virt-no-X" ... that, believe it of not came to me in a dream last night. And I read it here this AM! It's either get outta my head or the osmosis factor it taking...

Food for thought, thank you. Virtualization - never tried it, but have been thinking about it to run different Distros vs installing them. I've been told it's slow and memory hungry. Well, I have 5GB of memory I've never used. WINE? No not needed, I have no need of any Win apps at all, and I do not...

Thanks ...
The other stuff was yesterday and the day before, just the iceweasel one now. I have midori as a backup.
I'll let it run, normally I see stuff and wait but after two days with the xorg stuff I just wanted to check.
