[03:42] <joseph0829> i need to uninstall edubuntu... how can i do that?
[03:44] <joseph0829> i need to uninstall edubuntu... how can i do that?
[03:47] <LaserJock> joseph0829: what do you want to replace it with?
=== FunnyLookinHat [[email protected]] has joined #edubuntu
[03:50] <joseph0829> replace it with WinXP
[03:50] <joseph0829> replace it with WinXP
[03:50] <LaserJock> joseph0829: you don't need to say everything twice
[03:50] <LaserJock> joseph0829: just reinstall WinXP then
[03:51] <LaserJock> it will wipe off Edubuntu
[03:51] <joseph0829> i'll just put the WinXP cd and then boot to CD??
[03:52] <LaserJock> yeah
[03:53] <joseph0829> is it possible to run *.exe files on edubuntu?
[03:53] <LaserJock> no
[03:54] <joseph0829> can i also use the win98 start-up disk to reformat the disk used by edubuntu?
[03:54] <LaserJock> you should be able to yes
[03:55] <joseph0829> what you mean 'sohuld be able to yes'>
[03:55] <joseph0829> what you mean 'sohuld be able to yes'>?
=== Burgundavia [n=corey@ubuntu/member/burgundavia] has joined #edubuntu
[03:56] <LaserJock> if you put the win98 disk in you should be ble to format the drive
[03:56] <LaserJock> but you can also put your winxp disk in and reinstall and it should wipe the drive
[03:57] <joseph0829> i tried to boot the win98 start-up disk then run windows 98 setup, the it says the setup can remove an OS/2 system ostored on the hard disk, and then i press enter then it says that cannot write on the disk system halted... what do you mean by halt??
[03:59] <LaserJock> hmm, I'm not really up on win98 restor disks :/
[04:00] <joseph0829> does edubuntu use letters for the disk drive ID?? such as C:\ or d:\ something else??
[04:00] <LaserJock> something else
[04:00] <LaserJock> the first dis is hda
[04:00] <LaserJock> *disk
[04:00] <LaserJock> or sda
[04:01] <LaserJock> then second is hdb/sdb
[04:03] <joseph0829> just want otclear it out.... the primary dirve is what?
[04:03] <LaserJock> should be sda
[04:04] <LaserJock> it kinda depends on what version you have
[04:04] <LaserJock> we went from hda to sda a while back
[04:05] <joseph0829> the version is edubuntu 6.06
[04:07] <LaserJock> joseph0829: do you happen to know if it's a SATA drive?
[04:11] <joseph0829> nopt its Just ATA
[04:12] <joseph0829> nopt its Just ATA
[04:12] <LaserJock> it could be hda then
[04:13] <joseph0829> how about booting on an WinXP SP2 boot disk...does it replaces edubuntu??
[04:15] <LaserJock> it should
[04:23] <joseph0829> how about Linux Setup floppy disk?
[04:23] <joseph0829> how about Linux Setup floppy disk?
[04:25] <LaserJock> what about it?
[04:25] <JGedeon> joseph0829, whats the problem, your win98 startup disk will do it, your WinXP will also reformat your computer.
[04:25] <JGedeon> And yes a linux setup disk should be able to do it too.
[04:25] <LaserJock> JGedeon: thanks ;-)
[04:26] <JGedeon> LaserJock, NP
[04:29] <joseph0829> im sorry for deleting edubuntu yes its very useful coz there are software that are already installed along with the OS but i think there's only a few people in our place use the OS
[04:29] <JGedeon> joseph0829, I know more and more people in my area that are using it and I also now a local school that is converting to it.
[04:31] <joseph0829> and it really needs a lot of information when installing and uninstalling it
=== JGedeon scratches his head to figure out that one.
[04:32] <joseph0829> ...hahehhehe
[04:33] <JGedeon> joseph0829, sorry you think that I thought it seemed pretty straight forward installing. Never have uninstalled though. But it can't be any harder than putting a cd in and rebooting the computer.
[04:33] <JGedeon> I would like to see what you think of the documentation that would be needed to install a M$ system that does all that Edubuntu does.
[04:41] <joseph0829> ok
[04:43] <LaserJock> JGedeon: very true
[04:57] <JGedeon> Guess I made joseph0829 upset.

[08:14] <Feral_Kid> Any one tell me how to lock down certain function on the desktop? For instance, I don't want anyone to control vnc functions, or be able to change the desktop environment (change wall paper, etc)...
[08:21] <cliebow> feral_Kid:how about apt-get install pessulus
[08:21] <cliebow> you can control all that
[08:24] <jgedeon> cliebow: isn't that already installed by default?
