Comments:

<0> popey: thanks anyway
<1> !tell court about realplayer
<2> sizzam: that looks about right
<3> thanx
<1> navarone, I haven't seen one of those in years, except for screensavers
<4> !easyubuntu
<5> easyubuntu is an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ or #easyubuntu
<6> after i downloaded it to my desktop what do i do?
<4> i tried getting easyubuntu from the link above and i think the file is corrupted does anyone know where i can get a good one
<2> court, can't remember, what type of file is it? a .sh file?
<6> there were two, will the rpm self extracting wor?k
<6> bin
<2> Court: I *think* you just run it
<2> Court: if you run it as you it will install in your home directory in a place of your choosing
<2> Court: if you run it as root using "sudo realplayer....bin" then you can install it somewhere for everyone to use
<7> hello, once i made changes to /etc/crontab , do i have to "activate" those changes somehow?



<2> Court: hwoever.. now I think about it there may be a packaged version
<7> i mean, is there a process that has to be reloaded before those changes are enabled?
<2> Court: yeah.. sudo apt-get install realplayer :)
<2> sorry
<8> Is there a log of all the commands entered in the shell?
<2> theboywhogotlost: history
<2> theboywhogotlost: type "history" or cat ~/.bash_history
<2> to get a biiiig list
<9> why cant i unmute both channels in alsamixer for my surround
<8> how about replys from the commands?
<10> anyone here using freenx?
<10> or nx at all, for that matter
<2> theboywhogotlost: type !nnn where nnn is the number you see in "history"
<6> ok here is what i got:Couldn't display "/home/ubuntu/Desktop/RealPlayer10GOLD.bin"
<11> what is a tty?
<2> Court: open a terminal from Applications --> accessories --> terminal and do "sudo apt-get install realplayer" (this wont use what you just downloaded, but may work better anyway)
<9> Court, put ./ in front of it
<12> theboywhogotlost: "replies" aren't logged - there's only in the scroll buffer of your terminal
<2> theboywhogotlost: sorry, misunderstood
<13> if i disconnect brb sowwie
<2> theboywhogotlost: thought you meant replays
<8> !nnn does not do anything
<5> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, theboywhogotlost
<11> A TTY is also known as a TDD (Telecommunications Device for the Deaf) ?
<2> tatters: is it?
<11> I dunno
<8> Well thank you all for your help
<14> Itatters tty is short for teletypewriter
<14> or teletype
<11> oh tight I used one of them yrs ago
<2> ahh happy days printing out program listings on a teletype connected to a Pr1meOS computer
<11> with 8 bit paper tape
<11> lol they still around
<2> haven't seen one for years
<15> what's the command to search for specific text in files within a directory?
<14> tatters...if you ahve dictionary installed...which you probably do...you can open it go to preferences and choose free online computing dictionary and learn all kinds of jargon there...<s>
<2> nads: grep
<16> tatters: just type man tty in terminal
<17> navarone: yeah, local dictd is a Good Thing(TM)
<11> so its just an old world name for the terminal?
<17> tatters: if you do that, also install dict-devil
<12> ye olde terminal :)
<6> popey: sorry i keep bothering you here is what it said ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install realplayer
<6> Reading package lists... Done
<6> Building dependency tree... Done
<6> E: Couldn't find package realplayer
<11> k gunna look it up just took top google result
<2> court: hmm, looks like some of the repositories have not been enabled
<15> popey, wouldn't i have to do something like cat filename | grep <whatever expression> ?
<14> amphi...it's pretty cool to have...I tried looking up some arabic words and they even print them on right side of display just as it is written...nicely thought out
<6> ok, i do that in the package manager correct?
<2> nads: grep <expression> <file>
<10> i've just seen about 5 questions i already answered myself by using google
<10> come on guys
<15> popey, oh :)
<6> can i do the same for java too?
<2> court: you could
<2> Court: yes
<2> Court: there is a guide on the ubuntu website that tells you this :)
<9> na then just****inggoogleit.com



<2> Court: let me find it for you
<6> thank you!
<2> Court: http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/faqguide-all.html#sect-java
<14> nm...google is like a old uncle who isn't gonna leave you anything in his will but tells you everything you could ever want to know about something like wasps...except why...<s>
<2> Court: http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/faqguide-all.html too
<3> if i am playing an mp3, and then i go to a webpage that has flash with audio, i cant hear the audio. in order to hear the flash audio, i have to close down the mp3 player and then close firefox and reopen it
<11> so would it be a good idea to dissallow all root logins via tty or does ubuntu do that by default anyways?
<17> nm: a plea for sanity? ;)
<6> i appreciate it once i get java, realplayer, i should be ok
<6> thanks!!!!
<17> tatters: ubuntu disables root
<2> Court: nah, you'll want flash after that :)
<10> i'm just frustrated because i suspect nobody will be able to help me with my freenx problem
<10> :/
<2> Court: then something else :)
<6> lol, is it the same way?
<18> nm: Shoot, some of use are bound to help.
<17> nm: I've never used it I'm afraid
<10> which i've spent quite a bit more time researching than some of the folk with problems that are presenting them here
<2> Court: it's all on that page :)
<18> Or, look at me, my GLX doesen't seem to work.
<10> i have freenx installed, and configured
<10> it accepts the client connection no problem
<2> nm, I have never used it either, sorry
<11> so its set up like that by default amphi?
<10> everything looks good in the log file
<19> i have a newbie question if anyone would like to help....
<10> but it just dies,
<2> c0sm0: go
<10> citing 'remote proxy requests end session'
<10> from client side
<10> and unlike the usual culprit i've seen on several forums
<10> there is no cookie/auth mismatch
<20> i tried installing gdesklets...after completion the transparency was messed up. i found a forum in ubuntu that was suposed to fix this by right clicking the gdesklets icon and hitting configuration.....when i do that its like im only right clicking the menu...is something wrong with my gdm?
<19> thanks popey - i would like to update firefox to 1.5 but i don't know what to do with the archive i've downloaded
<17> nm: google knows nothing? what about /usr/share/doc/freenx or whatever?
<10> google knows nothing relevant
<18> Oh by the way, is there an NX server for Windows?
<10> people with similiar problems were just doing something wrong with their authentication keys
<10> razor: a commercial version, yes
<2> c0sm0: ubuntu breezy?
<18> nm: Gratis, though?
<19> yes ;)
<21> nm, i was afk - i'm using freenx right now...
<10> freenx is a free implementation built using the libraries that nomachine.com released under GPL
<10> colm: have you ever had the clients just not finish the connection
<10> and have a working X screen?
<2> c0sm0: dunno, I use 1.0.7
<10> it says everything is good
<6> Thanks guys, bye for now!
<10> but when i click 'details' in the windows client
<21> nm, stable as you like for me
<10> the last line simply says "remote proxy requested end session"
<19> heheh ok thanks
<22> can someone help me. I have my ati drivers installed. need to find out why in my ati control planel the drivers are showing mesa3d
<20> so is my gdm messed up?
<10> NX Client 1.5 for windows
<10> freenx 1.4
<23> is wine and xine the same thing?
<10> or nxserver 1.4
<10> even
<21> working x screen with higher res than the server plus audio! (no soundcard in server).
<10> taylor: wine allows you to run programs that use windows api
<10> xine is a media player
<18> nm: I couldn't find the server for Windows, heh.
<10> razor: www.nomachine.com
<10> there isn't a free one
<24> Hello everyone
<10> unless freenx has been ported to windows
<10> ;)
<23> why is the one in the repos so old?
<17> so old?
<24> What app do folks on Linux use to make Flash movies??
<25> Zoohouse: Macromedia Flash, in Windows 2000, under VMWare.
