<johndarkhorse> sweet_kate: but you get what you pay for
<Toma-> i have no soffice... only oowriter2 and friends
<gnomefreak> redblade: g++ file.cpp -o file "replace file with filename
<vladuz976> weird
<Frogzoo> Toma-: oo can read all soffice docs & vice versa/mostly
<inzanez> hm, after first reboot when installing ubuntu,...the "base-system" installation aborted. is there a way to manually re-invoke it?
<sweet_kate> Frogzoo: johndarkhorse should i open some ports on my router?
<Frogzoo> sweet_kate: nooo....
<sweet_kate> !repository
<ubotu> sweet_kate: Not a clue
<johndarkhorse> sweet_kate: not necessary at all
<sweet_kate> !repositories
<ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
<Toma-> vladuz976, run this... "sudo apt-get install openoffice.org2-writer"
<Frogzoo> sweet_kate: oh, unless your router's blocking nntp - but that's outbound - unusual to be blocked
<persia> My GNOME session takes ~30 minutes to load. Does anyone know a log file I could examine to determine what is happening?
<Toma-> if its installed, itll say its the latest version
<vladuz976> Toma-: ok
<Frogzoo> sweet_kate: if it works at all, that's not the problem
<hyphenated> 30 minutes? that's insane!
<Frogzoo> persia: check /var/log/messages
<Toma-> persia, .Xsessionerrors
<sweet_kate> Frogzoo: so there's no incoming blocked port
<sweet_kate> ?
<johndarkhorse> sweet_kate: my router is not forwarded and my pan runs quite nicely
<sweet_kate> !easysource
<persia> hyphenated: Yep! That's why I'm here. xterm loads in ~15 seconds.

<looksaus> is there an overview of current transition problems in dapper?
<Frogzoo> sweet_kate: nope
<sweet_kate> johndarkhorse: which router?
<looksaus> I have my gnome session crashing on me since quite some time now
<kresten> Hi! I'm having problems mounting both my iPod and my usb connected cd-rom. Can anyone help?
<johndarkhorse> sweet_kate: i dont remember, i've had it a long time, the point is, nntp doesnt require port forwarding
<Toma-> ubotu tell kresten about ipod
<Gurney> haven't been on IRC in like a decade
<sweet_kate> johndarkhorse: ok
<Mabus06> Is there a way to use usenet for free with ubuntu? I'm not even that sure what usenet IS.
<sweet_kate> !slowpc
<ubotu> sweet_kate: I haven't a clue
<sweet_kate> !pc
<ubotu> sweet_kate: Some people juggle geese
<johndarkhorse> Mabus06: sure, usenet = nntp = news
<Frogzoo_away> Mabus06: run pan & find an open nntp server or three...
<Eds> !computer
<ubotu> parse error: dunno what you're talking about, Eds
<johndarkhorse> sweet_kate: leave the bot alone, please
<johndarkhorse> !botabuse
<ubotu> You can play with me in /msg or #debian-bots without being banned.
<persia> Frogzoo: Thanks, but /var/log/messages only shows successful gconfd resolutions.
<sweet_kate> !sources

<Hendikins> Mabus06: Your ISP may have a news server. Ubuntu has newsreaders - at the very least, Thunderbird can read news.
<redblade> !botabuse
<vladuz976> anybody using xubuntu?
<redblade> not I said the vicar
<redblade> I can't seem to get any thing to compile.
<anagramarama> vladuz976: tried xubuntu on my laptop, but xfce frustrated me
<johndarkhorse> redblade: install build-essential, if you haven't already
<lampi> k, 12:11, time to eat - bye @ all
<persia> Toma-: I've been looking there, but there are no details. Is there an adjustment that can provide more information about the sources of the errors (debug option, for example)?
<redblade> I have a source file called calc.cpp. what would i do to compile it?
<vladuz976> what install option do i use to just get the base system, no gdm no gnome no nothing
<Hendikins> Mabus06: If you have no idea at all about what usenet is, perhaps a look at Google Groups would be a good idea (***uming your interest isn't simply for procuring illegal material)
<anagramarama> server
<Toma-> persia, not sure.
<johndarkhorse> ubotu: tell redblade about compile
<nuxil> how is ubuntu as a distro compared to genroo and archlinux ?? im confidering to install it.
<persia> Toma-: Thanks.
<nuxil> *gentoo
<inzanez> compared to gentoo...time saving? ;)
<redblade> I should mention that i wrote the program johndarkhorse
<Toma-> nuxil, you dont have to compile much/anything with ubuntu
<Mabus06> Hendikins: mainly just to see what the fuss is about
<johndarkhorse> redblade: then you should have some idea of how to build it, yes?
<kresten> Toma-, well the problem isn't with using my iPod but mounting external drives through usb...
<nuxil> no i mean the apt-get thing
<Hendikins> Mabus06: Well, a look at Google Groups won't go astray in that case.
<persia> redblade: try g++ -o calc calc.cpp
<Toma-> nuxil, lol, you wrote apt-get?
<redblade> I did it on windows. I'm new to Linux and really lost and confused
<johndarkhorse> redblade: see the URL the bot sent you, please
<nuxil> archlinux uses pacman which is good gentoo uses emerge.. abd ubuntu?? apt-get???
<Toma-> not u nuxil... redblade
<Toma-> nuxil, yeh, apt-get
<redblade> k thx
<Toma-> nuxil, alot like debian. infact, ubuntu is strongly based off debian
<POVaddct> redblade: if you used any windows specific libs in the source, it will not compile
<anagramarama> vladuz976: how are you getting on?
<redblade> I don't think it did.
<liable> not strongly, but is..
<nuxil> Toma- are the pkgs up to date?
<redblade> It was all command line stuff and not visual C++
<Toma-> nuxil, yep. theres a new ubuntu release coming in 3 months tho
<nuxil> i mean is it a bleding edge distro
<liable> nuxil: why do you need bleeding edge? you want stuff to break?
<Toma-> nuxil, its between bleeding and a dull edged distro at the moment
<nuxil> k
<Toma-> dapper (next release) will be bleeding
<visik7> I think that apt is bugged : look at here http://pastebin.com/527804 first trying to remove libkcal2a wants to remove a bunch of packages, than after a while it didn't want to remove it anymore
<visik7> WTF ?
<anagramarama> nuxil - with the addition of automatix, you get latest fun things to play with - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=66563
<liable> if you want to bleed/cry, use dapper now.. :P
<johndarkhorse> !automatix
<ubotu> rumour has it, automatix is messy, it breaks security guidelines. In short: You should not use it! !easyubuntu is a safer alternative, however it is much better to simply read documentation
<johndarkhorse> anagramarama: not in here, please
<nuxil> lol
<foad> what is this "ubp" mentioned in this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=94631&highlight=ubp ?
<nuxil> PLEASE DO NOT INSTALL (24) LOL
<nuxil> unlucky amaricans :P
<redblade> I'm installing build essential now.
<redblade> I like using linux but it's a lot more work than i had imagined.
<Fujitsu> In what ways, redblade?
<redblade> if i had of known i would have prepared better
<redblade> the command line stuff
<Hivemind> Redblade: I heartily agree.
<anagramarama> redblade: developers are expected to be able to use the command line
<hyphenated> redblade: don't be afraid of it :-)
<Eds> !mount ntfs
<ubotu> Eds: What?
<redblade> i'm 15. hardly a developer
<anagramarama> if you're writing code, you're a developer.
<hyphenated> redblade: clicking buttons in visual studio is hardly development either ;-)
<liable> redblade: its fun once you learn a bit and actually get to know a bit about it.
<redblade> well thats nice
<Eds> Anyone know the fstab line to enter to add an NTFS mount to read? Need it so I can convert to reiser
<Fujitsu> Ooh. Another Melburnian...
<kresten> Hi! I'm having problems mounting both my iPod and my usb connected cd-rom. Can anyone help?
<redblade> I hardly ever used visual studio
<kresten> The problem isn't with using my iPod but mounting external drives through usb...
<sweet_kate> !xfce4
<ubotu> sweet_kate: Some people juggle geese
<sweet_kate> !xfce
<ubotu> it has been said that xfce is a lightweight Desktop Environment that uses GTK. to install, "sudo apt-get install xfce4" or "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". http://www.xfce.org/
<redblade> I tried to use text editors for writing code.
<foad> Eds, this is how I have it mount -t captive-ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1
<Seveas> !ntfs
<ubotu> hmm... ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows 2000 and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
<liable> sweet_kate: learn to /msg ubotu
<hyphenated> redblade: and for compilation?
<redblade> or DevC++
<foad> or /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 captive-ntfs uid=captive,gid=captive,fmask=666,dmask=777 0 0
<redblade> That was most of the clicking
<jebus> can anyone help me? its askin do i want to partition the 2 options are continue or go back, none work? should i reboot and try again?
<redblade> Agggghhhhhhhhh!
<hyphenated> redblade: in the right hands, development on a UNIX/linux platform is faster and easier. but it takes a lot of learning to get there :-)
<ben_underscore> sweet_kate, have you tried xfce with ubuntu?
<redblade> I still can't open my .rar archives!
<gnomefreak> jebus: did you use the automatic partioner?
<amr-> how do i disable ubuntu from checking the time at bootup
