<0> YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
<0> FORZA ITALIA
<1> hello
<1> i am trying to understand something. do i need to be root to install SoX?
<1> i type in uname -a and i get this reply
<1> Linux leibniz 2.6.8-2-386 #1 Tue Aug 16 12:46:35 UTC 2005 i686 GNU/Linux
<1> what is it telling me?
<2> it looks like a debian kernel
<1> ahh
<1> ok
<1> brb let me try something.
<1> thank you mohua
<2> cat /proc/version
<1> ok just a sec
<1> thanks mohua
<1> Linux version 2.6.8-2-386 (horms@tabatha.lab.ultramonkey.org) (gcc version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-13)) #1 Tue Aug 16 12:46:35 UTC 2005.
<1> ok so it is debian
<1> ok i jsut downloaded a .deb file
<1> so i upload this to the site and how do i undo a .deb file?
<2> why not use apt?
<1> oh i can?
<1> i thought that was only for ubuntu?
<2> no
<1> ahh
<2> ubuntu is a debian derivative
<1> so i do like this apt get sox.deb ?
<1> apt doesnt work for it
<1> i am remote to this place
<2> apt-get install sox
<1> oh
<2> man apt
<2> but you need to be root
<1> darnit
<3> hi all and congrats all Italia fans
<4> Yeah . . . didn't think they were going to pull it off.
<2> amigamia: whos box is this?
<1> so i cannot install sox without root?
<4> France looked the better team for most of the game.
<3> Soutane: sure they were dominant in the 2nd half
<3> but Italia is magical
<1> so is brasil
<3> well amigamia brasilians are artists :)
<3> all stars collected together
<1> mohua it's my bf';s friends
<2> amigamia: then get him to install it
<1> darnit
<3> it's interesting to note that french outcasting brasilians was a necessary part of the whole scene.
<3> otherwise they were most favourites
<1> so this means that i cannot finish this installation until this sox thing is resolved?
<4> sox = Sarbanes-Oxley Act?
<1> oh, no
<1> it's something to do wtih dolphins
<2> sox - A universal sound sample translator
<4> Oh.
<1> sarbenes is great senator of maryland.
<1> maybe he will run as vice president to hilllary?
<3> to me sox sounded like another proxy side thing like socks , tsocks
<3> chee !
<1> oh boy let me see whta i can do brb
<5> por favor
<4> Sarbanes is sufficiently qualified at screwing up commerce and free enterprise that he could be a worthy candidate on the Demoncratic ticket.
<1> ok mohua they are asking me all kinds of questions.
<1> they say just compile it
<1> if it's a .deb file how do i undo it from a .deb?
<2> amigamia: eh?
<1> ok if i download the source how what is the command to compile it?
<2> why do you want the source when there is already a debian package?
<4> amigamia: if you download the source, it will likely be compressed. The first command to uncompress it will depend on how it's compressed, which you can determine from the file suffix.
<1> ok
<1> just a sec
<4> If the file ends in .tar.gz or .tgz or the like, use tar xvzf filename.tar.gz
<1> it is a .deb file
<4> Okay, that's not a source file.
<2> amigamia: dpkg -i filename.deb
<1> the reason i am asking in here is i dont want them to know i dont know what i am doing to be honest.
<2> but you should let apt manage your packages
<2> amigamia: i told you how to install it
<1> it requires superuser powers.
<2> apt-get install sox
<2> yes
<1> i am noit at his house
<1> i am at my house
<2> then go for a walk :)
<2> or bike ride
<1> he lives 600 miles away
<1> or more maybe 800
<4> Installing a binary built from source will also require superuser powers. No matter how you slice it, it will require superuser powers to install it in any meaningful way.
<1> ok brb
<4> Get him to give you his root p***wd and then ssh his box.
<4> You can do everything you need without moving an inch.
<1> sure right
<1> like he willl let me have his roots when i dont even know how to do a compile?
<4> If he won't give you his root p***word, then there's nothing you can do to help him.
<1> seriosly i dont think he would
<2> amigamia: if he doesn't want to give you root convince him to give you access to apt with sudo :)
<1> ok
<1> brb
<1> thanks
<2> offer him some favours in return ;-)
<1> ok i downloaded the source code
<1> i put it into a folder called code
<1> so what is the command to compile it?
<6> amigamia: I suggest reading the INSTALL file.
<4> Did you unzip it?
<1> just a sec
<1> let me evaluate this process
<1> -bash: ./configure: Permission denied
<1> it says this
<2> you need root to install it that way as well
<1> so i am out of luck
<2> no, install linux on your own box
<1> so how exactly would you install this remotely then? it's not like everyone would have root to install this on 99% of your hosting sites. for christs sakes.
<1> ok
<1> thanks
<1> chao!
<1> :)
<2> the admin would install it
<1> he wont you can bet that.
<1> nite :)
<4> That's the thing . . . if you don't have the root p***word, then it's not your box and you have no business installing things on it.
<4> What a returd.
<1> hi
<1> i discovered i had to change the chmod on configure
<1> so i did to 777
<1> so it did that part
<1> then it said do make install
<1> so i did that but it stopped and i get this error
<1> http://pastebin.ca/83590
<7> i'm trying to install vmware tools for slax and it is asking for the location of C header files. where should i point it?
<8> amigamia, what part of "you have to have root access" do you not understand?
<1> i just talked to the admin and he said i dont need to have root
<8> and why is HE not installing it?
<1> because he said i had to install it.
<8> Depends: libasound2 (>> 1.0.9), libc6 (>= 2.3.4-1), libmad0 (>= 0.15.1b), libogg0 (>= 1.1.3), libvorbis0a (>= 1.1.2), libvorbisenc2 (>= 1.1.2), libvorbisfile3 (>= 1.1.2)
<8> and if you're installing libs... you pretty much need to have root access
<1> oh i see
<1> ok let me tell him that brb thank you very much
<8> if he's the admin, he should know that
<9> fearphage: to current kernel's headers of course
<9> fearphage: ie, if you're running kernel 2.6.15 you need kernel headers 2.6.15
<9> fearphage: with a prepackaged kernel most of the distros also ship relevant kernel headers
<1> HE says i cannot use make install he says i have to configure the paths myself
<1> brb have to sync my visor
<2> amigamia: why won't he install it for you?
<1> i dont know.
<1> he's a republican for one thing. that might be the problem. i am not.
<2> sounds like the blind leading the blind
<1> i'm a leftist
