[00:16:59] <solringel> http://paste.ubuntu.com/751089/ [00:19:26] <almoxarife> solringel: you are getting 404 because of two possible reasons, 1. your version is not supported or 2. the site is down [00:21:42] <solringel> almoxarife: thanks [00:22:46] <almoxarife> solringel: consider installing y-ppa-manager, it finds ppa’s for your version when they exist [00:23:01] <solringel> how do i add it [00:23:43] <almoxarife> solringel: by finding the ppa for y-ppa-manager
[00:26:48] <almoxarife> solringel: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/y-ppa-manager [00:27:31] <SilverFox> Guest58177, you should rethink running irc client as root user. [00:27:44] <Guest58177> Ok [00:27:53] <solringel> thnaks [00:28:39] <Guest58177> I use xchat firstly. [00:29:14] <almoxarife> solringel: btw, unless you are on a server there is no need to do all that terminal apt-get stuff, install ‘synaptic’ let the gui do the hard work [00:29:17] <Guest58177> It is well using [00:30:19] <sherefe> Hello guys [00:30:31] <solringel> i ant install y-ppa http://paste.ubuntu.com/751094/ [00:31:43] <mrpink57> it’s good to at least learn terminal commands [00:32:06] <sherefe> Is it possible to listen for radio streams in internet via audacity using m3u extention ?

How do I go about it? I could not get help from oo channel. sorry to present here. But, I trust this channel for bright help. [00:38:56] <roasted> given the choice, what’s more compatible/easier to deal with when it comes to media players and linux? MSC or MTP? [00:40:58] <phix> hey real quick, what is the command to find out what deb package a file belongs to? [00:41:12] <ubuntumarx> #wii rayman origins [00:41:30] <_cb> I think that when I installed Ubuntu 9.10 I set up one partition for data and one partition for Ubuntu. How can I verify that? [00:41:40] <phix> I want to know which package installed files in /usr/java/packages/lib/ext and broke my compiler [00:41:44] <abhijit> hi. gnome3 scrollbars are not working inside xmind. help. how to i tell xind to use traditional scroll bars? [00:41:49] <phix> so I can abuse the maintainer [00:42:06] <phix> _cb: df -Th [00:42:12] <phix> _cb: or cat /etc/fstab [00:42:25] <the_3f_rule> Anyone have any insight on errno 5 input output install errors and ram? [00:42:39] <llutz_> phix: dpkg -S file [00:42:50] <phix> _cb: but remember that in linux all filesystems are mounted at a directory point [00:42:52] <phix> llutz_: thnx [00:42:56] <solringel> now im getting an error when i try doing an update http://paste.ubuntu.com/751100/ [00:43:33] <Guest96120> anyone know of a free swf editor for actionscript [00:43:59] <_cb> phix reason I am asking is that if I have my data in one partition and ubuntu in another I can install the newest version of Ubuntu in the Ubuntu partition [00:44:51] <phix> _cb: you know how unix / linux filesystem hierachy is setup? there is a single root point, not multiple root points like in windows [00:44:57] <almoxarife> solringel: saw that too before, and yes, you must manually remove the ‘ain’ from line three of the file shown, and yes, required admin privs [00:45:28] <_cb> phix not really. [00:45:34] <phix> _cb: if you update ubuntu it shouldn’t touch files in /srv or /home for example because they are not the standard locations to install files, /usr /var/lib usually are [00:46:18] <phix> _cb: ok well in windows you have A: B: C: D: etc… each one contains one filesystem (sort of unles you use junction points but I am assuming you havnt heard of them) [00:46:36] <Crash-OD> any help with the for a free swf editor? [00:46:39] <_cb> I tried the update once before and it did not work too well for me. That is the reason I was thinking about doing a clean install as long as my data was on a separate partition [00:47:25] <the_3f_rule> Nothing? [00:47:26] <phix> _cb: in linux everything in under / , you mount a filesystem in a directory, so everything in that directory is then on a different file system, so you can create a partition, format it with a files [00:47:30] <Abhijit> hi. gnome3 scrollbars are not working inside xmind. help. how to i tell xind to use traditional scroll bars? [00:47:46] <solringel> almoxarife: i need root privileges to edit the sources file but how can i just edit it through terminal> [00:47:54] <phix> _cb: you should be keeping your own files away from locations where ubuntu installs its files [00:47:54] <solringel> ? [00:48:11] <phix> _cb: ubuntu usually needs stuff under /usr and /var/libm so try not to put your own data under there [00:48:12] <huamm_> how to make my terminal like this – http://bowoganteng.tk/gambar [00:48:16] <almoxarife> solringel: are you on a server [00:48:22] <almoxarife> solringel: are you on a server????????? [00:48:25] <phix> _cb: keeping everything in /srv/ or under your home directory is the safest bet [00:48:27] <solringel> nope no server [00:48:43] <phix> solringel: use sudo [00:48:44] <almoxarife> solringel: what’s wrong with gedit? [00:48:46] <huamm_> coloring [00:49:09] <_cb> did a df -Th and that refreshed my memory. I have boot, home, tmp, usr, var on it’s own partition [00:49:18] <solringel> im new to linux i just dont know how to use terminal [00:49:38] <phix> solringel: xhost +; sudo DISPLAY=:0 gedit /some/file; xhost - [00:49:43] <_cb> Also have a mydata partition where all my data resides and shared with XP on a dual boot system [00:49:50] <phix> solringel: you ever used a dos prompt before? [00:50:17] <solringel> how whould i do that command if i want to edit the sources.list file? [00:50:25] <phix> _cb: ok, that is fine, the filesystem will probably be fat32 or ntfs so just mount it somewhere, /mnt/C for C drive is what I usually do [00:50:28] <solringel> nope never used dos b4 [00:50:31] <llutz_> phix: there’s “gksudo”, don’t use sudo for gui-apps and no need for that xhost-stuff [00:50:38] <almoxarife> solringel: type this gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/webupd8team-gnome3-precise.list [00:50:43] <phix> llutz_: ah ok
I am old school [00:50:52] <tripelb> Does 11.04 have an IRC client in it and if so which one? [00:50:59] <llutz_> phix: xhost + is evil and not old school [00:51:05] <phix> llutz_: yeah but it works

I suggest you read some of the docs at ubuntu.com or whatever the url is [00:53:10] <almoxarife> solringel: install ‘synaptic’ if its not already installed, you are working too hard [00:53:14] <phix> ~ubuntu
