[02:30:28] <tensorpudding> but seriously, why are you building 0.8.55 [02:30:28] <zjhui> tensorpudding: because i follow the tutorials which use that version [02:30:28] <almoxarife> Roasted: look at vlc, does the same job without the segfaults [02:30:28] <Roasted> LOL [02:30:28] <Roasted> VLC? [02:30:28] <tensorpudding> the 0.8 series is a few years old [02:30:28] <Roasted> VLC is not *anything* like rhythmbox [02:30:28] <almoxarife> !info vlc [02:30:28] <tensorpudding> the mainline is 1.0 [02:30:28] <ubottu> vlc (source: vlc): multimedia player and streamer. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1.12-2~oneiric1 (oneiric), package size 1375 kB, installed size 3516 kB [02:30:28] <tensorpudding> moreover, nginx is packaged in ubuntu [02:30:28] <Roasted> thanks, but no thanks. it’s nothing like rhythmbox whatsoever. [02:30:28] <c0nc0lic> hi, is this the right place to ask for help? [02:30:28] <kbhtech> Okay… I am trying to make something however I need to know the steps to connect to a wifi network in a program, does anyone have a clue? [02:30:29] <happygolucky> i’ve always prefered mplayer over vlc [02:30:29] <zjhui> tensorpudding: yes , i just want to complie it from the source [02:30:29] <zjhui> tensorpudding: let me try the new version [02:30:29] <tensorpudding> you should only do that if you actually understand what problems that can cause [02:30:29] <tensorpudding> and you should report the bug you found on the nginx bugtracker [02:30:29] <happygolucky> kbhtech: is this a programming question or general computing [02:30:29] <kbhtech> Starting off with general computing. [02:30:29] <zjhui> tensorpudding: i have found this http://www.serverphorums.com/read.php?5,308712 , but when i use that patch , it didn’t work [02:30:29] <kbhtech> It will get more in depth once I actually understand this tech. [02:30:29] <kbhtech> Its about what does a connection manager have to do to connect to a network. [02:30:29] <happygolucky> kbhtech: well off the top of my head from the command line you need wireless-tools installed and iwconfig ought to do the trick in setting all the proper associations, ifconfig will put the de [02:30:29] <kbhtech> mine to, I’m using backtrack… [02:30:29] <happygolucky> kbhtech: great tool [02:30:29] <c3ll> hi all [02:30:29] <zjhui> tensorpudding: and i also didn’t know the what’s the acutually reason that cause the problem [02:30:29] <happygolucky> kbhtech: i believe backtrack has wicd [02:30:29] <abraoximenes> i am using backtrack [02:30:29] <kbhtech> happygolucky define wicd please… [02:30:29] <c3ll> backtrack does use wicd [02:30:30] <happygolucky> pronounced wicked, it’s a wireless program for connecting to wifi hot spots [02:30:31] <kbhtech> Okay. I have verified that it does exist happygolucky. [02:30:31] <v3ritas> Anyone know how to fix Flash Error #2046 on Ubuntu? Cleared my cache, removed & reinstalled both the flashplugin-nonfree & adobe-flashplugin, used Chrome, Chromium & Firefox [02:30:31] <abraoximenes> http://abraoximenes.com [02:30:33] <tensorpudding> zjhui, the actual reason is is right there in the error, a variable was defined but not used [02:30:33] <tensorpudding> zjhui, the c compiler emitted a warning because of that, and because -Werror was in place, the compilation ended in error [02:30:33] <kbhtech> I need to find out… what do these wireless tools do. my current project is crazy but I am trying to get involved with packet injection. [02:30:33] <mamece2> ok guys ive been googling this for the entire day, i just made a bootable pendrive and when i try to boot it appears the message “boot error” [02:30:33] <c3ll> kbhtech, are you trying to use the air crack suite with backtrack? [02:30:36] <kbhtech> Yeah, I have done it in the entire backtrack kit. now I am trying to design something universal but don’t know where to even start. [02:30:36] <happygolucky> v3ritas if i were you i’d ls -alh /usr/lib/mpzilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so or whatever it is called and trace it to the actual file.. you can go to adobe and download the source and get the [02:30:36] <abraoximenes> I could use Backtrack tools in Ubuntu [02:30:36] <happygolucky> *mozilla [02:30:36] <mamece2> ok guys ive been googling this for the entire day, i just made a bootable pendrive and when i try to boot it appears the message “boot error” [02:30:36] <kbhtech> The 1st step is listening to the available hosts around me I think… [02:30:36] <v3ritas> @happygolucky, okay thanks, i’ll give that a try [02:30:36] <happygolucky> abraoximenes: of course, aircrack-ng is a package [02:30:36] <kbhtech> Is it the packets that define an SSID, BSSID and all that information on a channel? [02:30:36] <mamece2> plz go to BT5 chat room [02:30:36] <llutz_> !backtrack | kbhtech [02:30:36] <ubottu> kbhtech: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes.
