<0> Engla, OK but how do I do that. Like I said the users-admin gui has a script error. From the command line using adduser -someoption ?
<1> _jason: thank you very much, works like a charm now..thank you very much
<2> taigeR: yw
<3> Sohmc: does it call validlocale ?
<4> lol ok ok
<5> Aladdin: Hmm. I don't know actually. You can read the manpage 'man adduser'
<4> Madpilot: are you here all the time? you were here the first time I came for help :D
<6> amphi, no, it doesn't! I think we're on to something
<7> jie: not quite all the time, just a lot this weekend...
<6> amphi, do you want me to paste it for you?
<4> <3
<0> Engla, k am doinn' right now
<4> ok ok, so......another dumb question. What IS nautilus?
<8> hey guys, i see a guide on the net for installing Azureus, it says to apt-get it- but where the heck in what repository is it stored? i dont have it, i have multiverse turned on
<7> jie: the file manager - go Places menu --> Home - that's Nautilus
<8> mm heres something in the ubuntu wiki
<2> ubotu: tell synth about azureus
<9> synth: why not use ktorrent
<3> Sohmc: strange - this would appear to be the beginning of the cascade of errors: "Usage:./usr/sbin/validlocale <locale>...Try `localedef --help' or `localedef --usage' for more information."
<8> cause i'd rather not install Qt and all that :D
<4> ohhh ok ok. cool
<8> is it bette rthan azureus?
<6> amphi, that's what apt-get is reporting though
<8> azureus is the only java app i dont think ****s
<4> Madpilot: do you know of any P2P file sharing programs that work with linux?
<5> jie: It also draws your desktop. And takes long time to start the first time ;-)
<7> jie: the only one I use is bittorrnent, and I just use the default gnome-torrent
<6> amphi, is there a way to *force* apt-get to install?
<10> anyone know how to get a cd/dvd burner working, it says no recorder on system or something like that?
<11> what is uim's relationship to gtkim?
<8> :)
<3> Sohmc: it's not wise, usually
<9> by the way does the qnome have any good programming environment?
<3> Sohmc: I'm on debian stable here, and find no reference to validlocale in any of the scripts in /var/lib/dpkg/info
<6> amphi, hmmm...I'm out of options...firefox and other programs crash every now and again...when I run them in terminal, it tells me that the locale was the problem
<11> I've used im-cl***icalgreek in the past and was going to throw it together into a .deb for my personal use, but is gtk-im being phased out?
<4> Madpilot: I use bittorrent also but....doesnt it take a long time to get the files you want? music, programs, etc?
<4> Madpilot: I'm thinking more along the lines of kazaa, or ares
<0> Engla, man page says: Add an existing user to an existing group
<0> .If called with two non-option arguments, adduser will add an existing
<0> user to an existing group.
<9> Like kdevelop... im abit intrested of gnome but it seems not have desent tools for programming
<5> jie: dcgui is available. Sometimes it works, but it's not super-compatible with DC++
<0> Engla, that helps . lollllll
<7> jie: torrents can take a couple of minutes to start, I've found; after that it runs fine. I've never used other p2p stuff
<5> Aladdin: that should work
<12> UFO, it has gedit
<0> Engla, yeah but i don't understand it :o(
<12> hey i am new to programming, what are some decent tools?
<9> !gedit
<13> UFO: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<0> Engla, do you?
<6> amphi, let me check....
<12> UFO, it is just a text editor
<5> Aladdin: basically it hints at that "adduser user group" would add user to group
<9> varsendagger: yep, and graphical interface tools?
<5> Aladdin: use "group user" to check which groups that user is already in. Check yourself and compare to the other account
<0> Engla, oh. ok I'll try that. thx :)
<4> dcgui?
<0> Engla, k
<5> jie: it's a Direct Connect client
<6> amphi, I just checked...the only place that validlocale is mention is in the validlocale packge
<14> 'lo everyone
<4> Engla: I'm at their website, looking around
<3> Sohmc: uhuh
<6> amphi, is there a way to reinstall ubuntu, but not have it overwrite existing home directory data?
<4> Engla: which one should I select?
<5> Aladdin: typos all over. that group command is really 'groups #', where # is a username
<4> Engla:Mandrake? Debian? there's no ubuntu :(\
<3> Sohmc: /home is a separate partition?
<5> jie: You can find it in synaptic!
<6> no
<4> Engla: hold up, retarded question coming up
<4> Engla: what's synaptic?
<0> Engla, yep works better . hey It worked... thx alot
<5> jie: Synaptic is like a good friend. :-P
<3> Sohmc: should be ok as long as you skip the mkfs stage - I'd backup in case ;)
<5> jie: It's a "package manager". It installs programs, and makes sure things they "depend on" are also installed
<9> jie: synaptic is graphical apt-get
<3> Sohmc: and the partitioning stage, obviously ;)
<5> Aladdin: good to hear
<5> Aladdin: also make sure that user can use the cdrom by adding that group etc etc
<0> bye guys and thx Engla. You're all doing a great job!
<6> amphi, hmmm....do you think that's the only way to fix the problem? It seems like this just occurred...not sure what caused it
<3> Sohmc: can you apt-get remove --purge locales ?
<15> Anybody familiar with compiz?
<7> jie: System menu --> Admin. --> Synaptic Package Mngr - when it asks for a p***word, use your own user pw
<16> Eleaf: i've seen screenshots ;)
<15> bur[n]er, ;)
<15> bur[n]er, I'm trying to compile it, I keep getting errors..
<6> amphi, YES!!! it worked
<15> ;)
<15> Anybody else?
<16> you have to have XGL support right?
<15> bur[n]er, I guess
<4> got it, thx
<15> bur[n]er, how do I do that?
<15> lol
<16> so I'd start there ;) sounds like a lot of work merging XGL w/xorg, but it may not, I really have no idea
<15> bur[n]er, I don't see any way to 'get xgl support'
<4> So let me get this straight, synaptic allows you to search online for programs and get them?
<4> compatible programs*
<16> Eleaf: no apt way, but I think the source was released last week by novell?
<17> jie, you gotta lotta learnin ta do
<18> !debian
<13> Debian is "the rock upon which Ubuntu is founded"; see http://www.debian.org Thank You Ian and DEBra Murdock! 1994 Vers. 0.9. Debian and Ubuntu http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship/
<7> jie: yes, pretty much
<5> jie: in a way. But someone has actually compiled this list and in many cases modified the programs to work well with ubuntu
<6> amphi, should I now 'apt-get install locale
<15> bur[n]er, oh
<18> !distro
<13> rj_not_ajay: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<15> I can't find anywhere to get it bur[n]er
<4> unkn0wn2u: yeah, I do
<18> !distros
<13> Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, rj_not_ajay
<18> !distributions
<13> rj_not_ajay: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<5> jie: but it's a limited set of packages, and it's not all the possible things you can ever install. [But if you install anything from synaptic it works]
<19> anybody knows how can i create a separate partition for my /opt?
<16> http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/x11/xserver-xgl is in dapper Eleaf
<15> I wish there were some instructions or list of dependencies for compiz bur[n]er
<5> jie: It uses "repositories", lists of packages to get packages... you can modify/add those to make more programs available
<16> Eleaf: i'm waiting for someone with more skill to bring it to me ;)
<15> lol
<3> Sohmc: you could do apt-get clean to clear the package cache and force a download in case the package was corrupt, and then apt-get install locales
<20> Out of interest are there any min spec required to run ubuntu?
<15> bur[n]er, should I install that dapper package?
<7> jie: the Ubuntu project maintains the repositories that Synaptic searches & downloads from generally
<16> Eleaf: not on breezy
<15> bur[n]er, why not?
<15> ;)
<6> amphi, thanks...When I do the apt-get install locales, it asks me for the CD...is there a way to force the download and install off the net?
<15> I could easily remove it right bur[n]er ?
<15> or will my computer suddenly turn off..
<15> lol
<20> Nobody knows?
<5> el_capitan: My install disc just says "you have to have 32M RAM" and "A typical installation demands 1.8G drive space"
<4> ok, I went into synaptic and clicked on settings/repositories
<4> which one should I select?
<20> awesome
<5> el_capitan: that's from the printed Hoary discs I have
<20> thanks Engla
<3> Sohmc: you have net repos set up?
<7> jie: have a look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto
<6> amphi, not really sure what that is...can you elaborate? (I probably do)
<3> Sohmc: cat /etc/apt/sources.list
<3> Sohmc: or, have you installed anything from the net yet?
<6> amphi, I have
