Comments:
<0> any ideas?
<1> nrbelex_ubuntu, get lame
<2> geez, me = n00b, HOW DO I build a program ?
<3> skippy81, yes, first I used easyubuntu, when that didn't owrk I re-installed them by hand
<4> wubrgamer: what are you buildign?
<5> wubrgamer: open terminal, cd <directory>, ./configure, make, sudo make install
<3> tedd, how do I do that?
<2> that's it ?
<6> s/sudo make instsll/checkinstall/
<6> !checkinstall
<1> nrbelex_ubuntu, sudo apt-get install lame
<5> wubrgamer: as long as you have the needed libraries, works for just about everything
<7> methinks checkinstall is http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CheckInstall
<8> i think ubotu factoid about mp3 should include the link to the freeformats too
<9> wubrgamer: why not just stick with the supplied firefox - ubuntus version has upto date security patches
<10> anyone knwo what happened to sparc
<2> what libraries ?
<2> like what ?
<2> ubuntu version is slower
<11> poje: use "checkinstall" instead of "make install" it makes apt aware of it
<2> i don't know why
<12> !ubotu samba
<7> I heard samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba2/book/toc.html
<13> Sing ein Lied!
<2> and i just want a fresh mozilla one
<9> wubrgamer: are we still on the subject of firefox here? as far as i know firefox is a binary download, you dont need to make it
<5> tristanmike: thank you, that's new to me and good advice
<14> where does totem keep the addresses entered into the "open location" dialog box stored? (the equivalent of a "history")
<2> nope, it's tar.gz
<9> just download it from mozillas website and take a look at it
<2> ?
<2> what?
<2> i'm confused
<2> how do i install it ?
<2> aack
<2> such a n00b
<5> wubrgamer: gotta untar it: tar -xzf <filename>
<11> poje: it also creates a .deb so if you have to reinstall it on your machine again, you have a deb to do it, rather than recompile, but it's non-transferable ;)
<15> Is there a summary of the changes that occured in the base ISO images between the last RC and the actual LTS release?
<2> where is that ?
<2> i have the tar.gz sitting on my desktop.......WHAT DO I DO ?
<5> wubrgamer: open a terminal
<3> Tedd, I already had it
<16> read a book
<9> wubrgamer: right click on it and press extract
<11> !tell wubrgamer about tar
<9> thats the gui way :)
<5> skippy81: :(
<2> got it
<9> or from a comand line its tar -xjvf <filename>
<11> wubrgamer: read your pm for some info on tar/untar'ing
<2> alright.....
<2> i have no pm's from anyone
<8> dh_make and dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot are much better than checkinstall
<5> skippy81: j is for bz2, z for gz
<17> wubrgamer: just double click it
<9> ah :)
<2> now what do i do with the extracted file ?
<17> archive manger pops up
<5> skippy81: didn't we already discuss the usability of the CLI for new users?
<18> where in /etc could i find config files related to alsa or gstreamer
<17> extract,and run firefox
<5> wubrgamer: pm me
<19> trying to install dapper now (i'm on the live cd) I'm "5% complete" -- "creating ext3 file system/in partition #1 of IDE1 master (hda) ..." and I get popup error "failed to create a file system" I googled a bit and didn't see anything on this.
<5> wubrgamer: nm
<17> it's crude, but it works
<18> i'm being bitten by the 'can't detect soundcard' problem
<19> I'm hosed, ain't it??
<5> wubrgamer: we'll do it in the channel :) okay, so cd <the directory that just extracted>
<19> *I*
<20> hello
<21> Hello, I have a friend who wants to switch to linux, but they have tons of visual basic macros in Microsoft Word, is there a way of installing an OOo extension for visual basic script macros?
<17> mshiltonj: if you have another OS on there, that is likely going to have issues
<5> kholerabbi: I would suggest running Word in Wine if he is that dependet on them
<2> how do i find where i am in the command line ?
<22> kholerabbi: easy way, tell him to install OOo in windows and see if it works
<2> in the file system ?
<2> ls ?
<19> I don't. I only had breezy, but I was doing a clean install.
<23> hey
<22> kholerabbi: ooo can handle some basic script imports
<9> wubrgamer: "pwd"
<2> thnx
<23> can someone tell me what the correct driver for voodoo cards is?
<5> wubrgamer: pwd prints the working directory
<2> i'm there
<9> wubrgamer: stands for present working driectory
<2> thenx
<2> it works
<5> wubrgamer: you start in your home, so you should be able to cd to Desktop/<directory>
<2> so what do i do now ?
<3> So I definitely have all the necessary gstreamer codecs and I already had lame. still can't get MP3s to play...
<23> it's a voodoo5 card
<2> yes
<2> altight
<23> is glide the way to go?
<19> AK7: I just want to get dapper (and only dapper) on there.
<5> wubrgamer: type ./configure
<24> desktop wont change resolution!!! it freezes and logs me out ... that<s it HELP
<2> i'm IN the firefox folder
<17> Well, then, turn off the computer and start over, mshiltonj
<19> I've tried to run the install prog three times now.
<2> it's not there
<17> oh
<2> no such file
<17> bad download?
<5> wubrgamer: is there a bin folder? type ls
<23> anybody?
<19> I haven't rebooted, though.
<9> wubrgamer: can you type "ls" and pastebin it please
<2> right
<17> yeah, try that
<19> alright. I'll reboot and verify the media. try again.
<17> wait
<19> *crosses fingers*
<19> ??
<17> do you have ubuntu or kubuntu
<19> ubuntu
<2> ubuntu
<17> kk
<5> wubrgamer: cd bin and then ./firefox
<23> do you not see me typing, or are you just ignoring me?
<17> I guess reboot and hope for the best :/
<19> here's hoping.
<2> pastebin.com/761268
<19> tnx
<25> coucho: are you typing or are you an ai program that doesn't know what a key board is? ;)
<21> Hmmm... I'll install word on wine, and see if the script works by importing thansk :)
<5> wubrgamer: ./firefox
<9> coucho: try "voodoo"
<2> no such file or directory
<2> oh
<23> threeseas: are you helping or just trying to be funny?
<2> never mind
<26> ? Does anyone know why if I try to uninstall Evolution, synaptic insists on uninstalling ubuntu-desktop?
<2> oh wow
<23> skippy81: doesn't bring up much
<2> it says i'm updated
<2> !
<7> wubrgamer: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<2> firefox came up
<5> wubrgamer: sorry, I forgot that ff releases binaries ;d
<23> except glide, but man glide says it's only for voodoo 1 & 2
<2> ?
<9> coucho: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and see if you can choose voodoo from the list of video drivers
<2> it isn't installed though
<2> i just exited
<25> coucho: maybe neither as I just entered the channels and don't see your initial msgs
<5> wubrgamer: I had been telling you how to build from source without remembering that FF releases binaries primarily
<2> and clicked the blue ball.......
<2> it's now ff 1503
