so, I scanned pix into rosemarys' computer(since the shit scanner I borrowed from work for some insane, dumbass reason, only supports intel chipsets not amd), and set up local networking, and copied files from hers to my windows partition.

I then used Paint Shop Pro to edit them. They're pretty much ready to go. So I turned on the computer just now, and windows freezes at the login screen!

WTF?

I'm trying to find them now through Linux(accessing the Windows Partition and browsing the directories. But I can't see it anywhere. I'm not sure where the hell I stored them.

Plus, I gotta head to work now for a few hours. This is not shaping up to be a good day. But damnit if I ain't gonna try to make it a good one.

I have a scanner, babe, and it works with AMD, it's cheap and i'm not sure where the software is, but the software was crap anyway and i'm sure we can find something better. Work sucks. I was all confused when i got home from the farmer's market. =(
See you when you get home!
*hugs*

The find command is your friend....

find /my/windows/partition -iname '*.jpg' -print

Hmm... did you tell me to use find once before? I vaguely have a feeling that i was trying to find something and you suggested it. Anyways, I luckily was able to get to windows to upload the pics(as you can see in my journal)... but I should definitely try to utilize find just to learn it at the very least.

What distro of Linux do you use anyways? I'm in gentoo, but I'm thinking of going back to Mandrake, even though I have my cd-burner going now. I'll just have to wait and see.

If GIMP had vector-text, I'd be more likely to use Linux more often. sigh.

I'm running off a massively updated and recompiled Debian 2.1 (most programs recompiled, bar the rc/boot sequence). It works a charm except for the fact that since I've upgraded my machine, I've not been able to get my CDROM drive to read. Linux detects it, but trying to mount it results in it appearing as though the drive isn't even there. I even tried swapping the cables so the drive was a master. No difference. *sigh* oh well.
