<15> http://ftp.esat.net/pub/linux/fedora/updates/5/i386/repodata/filelists.xml.gz: [ Errno -1] Metadata file does not match checksum
<15> I seem to be seeing that alot
<16> psyon: yum clean metadata
<15> You know, it would be nice if when you hit CTRL+C yum would die and not just try the next mirror

<17> where does the dbus session bus get started by gnome?
<0> Anyone recommend a good bottle of reposado tequila?
<18> Hi guys.
<18> I hope this is a simple question...
<18> Environment variables in Linux...



<15> Anyone recommend any good software like KDVDBackup?
<18> I know that in Windows there is a way to add multiple values, seperated by semi-colons, in an environment variable.
<18> Is there a way to do the in Linux?
<15> well, thats just for path
<19> $PATH=$PATH;/some/other/path
<15> you use : in linux though
<19> works for all $ vars
<19> yeah :
<18> I've tried semi-colons, and it didn't seem to work...
<19> cools
<15> iudicium: doesnt that depend on the program reading the variable to parse it?
<19> colons*
<19> yep
<15> Last I checked, getenv() only returns a single string
<19> you can have any number of values separated by :
<18> When I tried a colon, and I used the 'echo' command to display the contents of the variable, it didn't seem to have worked.
<15> Right, but the program has to parse them out
<15> its not like if you set BLAH=1:2:3
<19> $PATH=$PATH:/some/path
<15> that it makes 3 varaibles
<19> export $PATH
<19> echo $PATH
<19> will work =)
<18> It seems to kill one with an asterisk in it though.
<19> asteriks not allowed
<19> no * or ?
<19> ok?
<18> When I tried it with one path "/home/GT500/.../*.jar" it would display every JAR file when you used the 'echo' command.
<19> * is not allowed
<18> OK.
<18> I was hoping it would work. It would make this much simpler...
<19> * equals all characters and ? equals a single char
<19> it may if the proggy expects a *
<18> I have a couple dozen JAR files...
<19> the shell just doesnt like the *
<18> OK.
<18> I don't know if a * is acceptable on a cl***path.
<19> i have never seen it that way and I teach basic Java
<18> I just thought that since the shell listed them all at first when I used * that it was OK.
<18> OK.
<18> Thanks.
<19> maybe the cl***path program will like it
<19> the bash shell doesnt because * is a file glob
<19> globs eat all of memory
<19> so, if you had like 10,000 files in a directory it would take a very long time to glob them all
<18> True.
<20> BobJensen: how do i use XEN
<20> !XEN
<20> how does one set up windows in XEN
<19> i dont think you can yet |Sivik|
<19> chekc the xen web site for updates
<19> check*
<20> what do you mean you can't run windows in xen
<19> I use XEN Hypervisor and I cannot run Windows -- states its not yet supporte
<19> supported*
<21> can anyone help me set up a bluetooth keyboard? I am so close?
<20> so do i just need to use VMWare server?
<19> yeep
<18> VMWare is still the best...
<0> What about wine |Sivik|
<20> windows in win?
<20> wine
<20> i'm trying to run halo and cedega nor wine does it very well
<18> Wine is a Windows emulator.
<0> I only caught the tail-end of this convo
<18> Oh.
<20> yeah
<20> GT500: then how does one run halo with it
<18> A Virtual Machine like VMWare or XEN probably won't either...
<0> You can run halo I believe with wine
<0> isn't it on their list of supported games?
<19> Xen != Wine
<19> brb
<18> After installing wine, you execute your Windows program like this "wine halo.exe"
