    Dispatcher: Do you have an address?

    Caller: No, I'm wearing a blouse and slacks, why?

    Dispatcher: 9-1-1 What is your emergency?

    Caller: Someone broke into my house and took a bite out of my ham and cheese sandwich.

    Dispatcher: Excuse me?

    Caller: I made a ham and cheese sandwich and left it on the kitchen table and when I came back from the bathroom, someone had taken a bite out of it.

    Dispatcher: Was anything else taken?

    Caller: No, but this has happened to me before and I'm sick and tired of it.

    Dispatcher: 9-1-1 What is your emergency?

    Caller: Hi, is this the Police?

    Dispatcher: This is 9-1-1. Do you need police assistance?

    Caller: Well, I don't know who to call. Can you tell me how to cook a turkey? I've never cooked one before.

    Dispatcher: 9-1-1 Fire or emergency?

    Caller: Fire, I guess.

    Dispatcher: How can I help you sir?

    Caller: I was wondering.....does the fire department put snow chains on their trucks?

    Dispatcher: Yes sir, do you have an emergency?

    Caller: Well, I've spent the last 4 hours trying to put these chains on my tires and... well.. do you think the fire department could come over and help me?

    Dispatcher: Help you what?

    Caller: Help me get these chains on my car!

    Dispatcher: 9-1-1 What is the nature of your emergency?

    Caller: I'm trying to reach nine eleven but my phone doesn't have an eleven on it.

    Dispatcher: This is nine eleven.

    Caller: I thought you just said it was nine-one-one

    Caller: Honey, I may be old, but I'm not stupid.

    Dispatcher: 9-1-1 What's the nature of your emergency?

    Caller: My wife is pregnant and her contractions are only two minutes apart.

    Dispatcher: Is this her first child?

    Caller: No, you idiot! This is her husband!

    And the winner is..........

    Dispatcher: 9-1-1

    Caller: Yeah, I'm having trouble breathing. I'm all out of breath. Darn....I think I'm going to pass out.

  6. Little boy goes to his father and asks, "Daddy, how was I born?"

    The father answers: "Well, son, I guess one day you will need to find out anyway! Your Mom and I first got together in a chat room on Yahoo. Then I set up a date via e-mail with your Mom and we met at a cyber-cafe. We sneaked into a secluded room, where your mother agreed to a download from my hard drive. As soon as I was ready to upload, we discovered that neither one of us had used a firewall, and since it was too late to hit the delete button, nine months later a blessed little Pop-Up appeared and said: You've Got Male!"

  9. ok ive got my compt to recognise the f drive but it is the partition with nothing on it

    the partition i want recognised is the one with

    ubuntu on it

    im afrais ile have to uninstall it becuse i cant get any satifaction out of this board

    there are several of us with the same problem

    and all we get is blame microsoft instead of trying to get round the problem.

    if this is the sort of help board. god help linux for help.

    because it isnt here.

    ile have to try some where else

    marty

  10. dont kill yourself trying to get windows to see and access the linux filesystem. it'll never happen(at least for know).

    although ive heard of a program to allow accessing ext2 (and maybe ext3) filesystems.

    as iccaros said, blame ms

    <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

  11. Microsoft will never see your linux partiton for two reasons, one microsoft does not want you to dual boot with another OS and two they did not include any drivers. Linux includes drivers for Windows and Mac, BSD ... so its by far not Linux's fault..

    you can call Microsoft and ask what to do, there are a few ext/reiser drivers for windows if you search google but most are poorly written, if you must share between them create a fat partition that both can read and write to.

    maybe Microsoft will become unaragent and learn that they are not the only OS in the world.

    This is just one more weekness in the Windows.

    hi iccaros

    i had the same trouble with mandrake

    windows wouldnt let me see the drive with

    mandrake on it

    and now im having the same trouble with ubuntu

    i believe it wondows blocks the mbr

    a friend got round it by putting the 2 oses on the one drive instead of two drives

    but i do not know how to do that

    ive tride shifting the jumper pin back to to the

    master slave position

    but it tells me there is a boot error

    so i had to take the jumper pin out and use the drive without a jumper

    as a slave in fact

    and that gives me the option to boot either way xp or ubuntu

    but i cant see the drive with ubuntu.

    i spent most of the night surfing ubuntu

    and i like what i see

    so some of us are at a stale mate

    the problem is i need

    xp at the moment

    if iwas competent with ubuntu

    ide leave xp alone for a while

    ive tried the linux help board

    and ive posted my Q

    on their board

    but havent got an answer for 4 days

  12. Hi Marty

    I had the same thing and I figure it is because the drive is formatted in a way that Windows won't recognize.  I WAS able to delete the partition using disk management but then the Linux files were all lost. 

    Sorry I can't be of help but I thought I'd give you my observations so you know that you're not the only one to have this problem.

    <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

    hi jimras,

    i think robroy was having the same trouble

    in all the time ive had any thing to do with linux this has been the problem

    perhaps we need to change the jumper.

    im just not cinfident enought o do that.

    are you still having that problem

    as well im going to have to configure my dial up

    so ive plenty of work ahead of me

    thanks

    marty

  13. hi team ive installed ubuntu on a slave drive.

    and on the master drive i have winxp.

    my slave drive that has ubuntu dosent show up in my compt.

    but does in disk management

    ive 488 mgs in partition

    i presume the reason is one is fts and the other is ntfs

    what do i need to change so the drive with ubuntu shows up in

    my compt

    would deleteing the 488 partition help.

    other than that.

    i would have to uninstall ubuntu

    and i dont really want to do that .other than that ubuntu works fine

    i have the choice to boot to either win or ubuntu.

    which is fine by me.but i need to see that drive with ubuntu so i can check the and defrag the disk

    ect.

    any ideas

    thanks

    marty

  14. hi team

    some days ago i posted on having a dual boot with winxp and ubuntu

    after a few miss and hits ive finally got a choice of what ever OS

    i need either xp or ubuntu

    i was wary about the dial modem but

    iccaros

    said until we meet that hurdle.get ubuntu on first

    ok i need your advice how do i configured the dial up modem

    my modem is a dse 56k xh1154 ham pci intel v2

    i have the modem driver cd if it is any help

    i would appreciate any info

    and help

    im quite excited about this venture

    ive had mandrake 9,1 before but i think my cd is corrupted

    i like linux but im not brainy enough to set it all up

    thanks in advance, i have many q to ask later

    reading through robroys post my set up is simliar

    xp on the master and ubuntu on the slave.

    i hope this is right

  16. hi team i asked the lady who sent this story if she had any tips for dads

    marty

    'm not just a Mom......

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A woman named Emily renewing her driver's license at the DMV office was asked

    by the clerk to state her occupation. She hesitated, uncertain how to

    classify herself. "What I mean is," explained the clerk, "do you have a job, or are

    you just a .....?

    "Of course I have a job," snapped Emily. "I'm a Mom."

    "We don't list 'Mom' as an occupation. 'Housewife' covers it," said the clerk

    emphatically.

    I forgot all about her story until one day I found myself in the same

    situation, this time at our local police station. The clerk was obviously a career

    woman, poised, efficient, and possessed of a high-sounding title like, "Official

    Interrogator" or "Town Registrar."

    "What is your occupation?" she probed.

    What made me say it, I do not know. The words simply popped out.

    "I'm a Research Associate in the field of Child Development and Human

    Relations."

    The clerk paused, pen frozen in midair, and looked up as though she had not

    heard right. I repeated the title slowly, emphasizing the most significant

    words. Then I stared with wonder as my pronouncement was written in bold, black

    ink on the official questionnaire!

    "Might I ask," said the clerk with new interest, "just what you do in your

    field?"

    Coolly, without any trace of fluster in my voice, I heard myself reply, "I

    have a continuing program of research, (what mother doesn't?), in the laboratory

    and in the field (normally I would have said indoors and out).

    I'm working for my Masters, (the whole bloody family), and already have Three credits, (2 daughters and a son). Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in

    the humanities, (any mother care to disagree?) and I often work 14 hours a day,

    (24 is more like it). But the job is more challenging than most

    run-of-the-mill careers and the rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money."

    There was an increasing note of respect in the girl's voice as she completed

    the form, stood up, and personally ushered me to the door.

    When I got home, buoyed by my glamorous new career, I was greeted by my lab

    assistants--ages 5, and 4. Upstairs, I could hear our new experimental

    model, (a 22-month-old baby), in the child-development program, testing out a new

    vocal pattern. I felt I had triumphed over bureaucracy! And I had gone on the

    official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable to mankind

    than "just another Mom."

    Motherhood: What a glorious career! Especially when there's a title on the

    door.

    Does this make grandmothers "Senior Research Associates in the field of Child

    Development and Human Relations," and great-grandmothers "Executive Senior

    Research Associates"??? I think so!!!

    I also think it makes aunts "Associate Research Assistants."
