[03:27] hello can someone please tell me what sudo apt-get clean will do ?? [03:27] jahshua: delete all the .deb packages [03:27] jahshua: take out all debs in /var/cache/apt/archives/ [03:28] what does that mean tho [03:28] jahshua: that where used to install applications from. No apps will be deleted. [03:28] do i want to that ? [03:28] i have been told to do it [03:28] apokryphos: seems not [03:28] jahshua: when you install packages with apt, it downloads them to a location before it installs them. apt-get clean takes all of those old ones out [03:28] jahshua: it frees hard drive space [03:28] ok great [03:29] jasonkb: hm, indeed. Sounds like a bug :P [03:29] ah [03:29] how does one orchestrate a fix? [03:30] so when i do sudo apt-get where do the packages go? for instance i did sudo apt-get earlier for amsn and now i want to remove it, so how do i find it [03:30] jasonkb: might either add the suggestion on the wiki page or ask jonathan about it [03:30] okay [03:30] does ubuntu install any games by default? [03:30] jahshua: you want to remove amsn from your system, or just the amsn .deb? === apokryphos checks [03:31] whats the difference [03:31] i dont really know :( [03:31] jasonkb: it doesn't. [03:31] ah.. [03:31] jahshua: think of the .deb as an .exe, if you like [03:31] ok right [03:31] jasonkb: CD space is reserved for openoffice and so. [03:31] er, an installing exe [03:31] leafw: hm okay [03:32] ok so i want to remove it from my system ... i got a new .deb from sourceforge [03:32] leafw: it does, actually. gnome-games_2.12.1-0ubuntu1_i386.deb [03:32] apokryphos: they don't appear in the kubuntu K-menu in any case [03:33] leafw: kubuntu doesn't, sure. Default ubuntu installation has some though [03:33] perhaps I chose not to install them? I thought I did a straightforward install. [03:33] ph, I see. [03:33] jahshua: ok, then sudo apt-get remove amsn === Anakashar [n=Pronoune@adsl-70-232-58-57.dsl.ltrkar.sbcglobal.net] has joined #kubuntu [03:33] jahshua: it's really a good idea to start off with a GUI package manager. Try out adept [03:33] ok im just trying to learn cli [03:33] thats all [03:34] ok, sure [03:34] you should acquaint yourself with man pages -- you'll find them eternally useful :) [03:34] oh *phew* kolf doesn't start out playing a blank course any more the first time runs it [03:34] yeh [03:34] there are lots of them! [03:34] hehe [03:34] my maintainership has been so nonexistent I forgot if 'd changed that === mode/#kubuntu [+o Mez] by ChanServ === apokryphos chuckles === Mez waves [03:35] hi Mez :) [03:35] hey :D === sean [n=sean@cpe-066-056-189-178.triad.res.rr.com] has joined #kubuntu === sean is now known as Sean [03:37] evening seth_k|lappy [03:37] does anyone know what the 'kded' is doing on the background when I insert a CD. Is it a pre-cache or something? It kindda stalls my powerbook [03:37] aagh, I'm having some horrible problems with my ipod. Anyone willing to help? [03:37] can it be disabled ? === kalenedrael [i=407-iden@c-24-34-72-14.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] has joined #kubuntu [03:38] Sean: what program are you using with it? [03:38] I'm trying to get my ipod to enumerate as /dev/ipod whenever it's connected to the computer. [03:39] Sean: are you using breezy? [03:39] Yeah [03:39] <_psyk> how do i edit sources.list in root mode? [03:39] Kubuntu seems to be ignoring the udev rule I made for the ipod [03:39] Sean: the /dev mount shouldn't matter -- it'll mount to /media/ipod using KDE, and that's where all the programs (such as gtkpod) expect it [03:39] <_psyk> i do i access sources.list in root mode? [03:39] sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list [03:40] _psyk: if you followed the instructions on that link, you wouldn't need to edit it directly like that 8) [03:40] or sudo nano, if vim makes your skin crawl [03:40] troy: I have no /media/ipod [03:40] _psyk, k menu->run command -> kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list [03:40] Sean: it should be created for you when the ipod is plugged in, when using default breezy settings [03:41] I think hald actually takes care of that === apokryphos thinks 2:41 is definitely time for bed. 'night =) [03:41] troy: ipod's plugged in, it's not created dynamically. although the IPOD icon does appear on my desktop and I can browse the device's filesystem [03:41] ipodslave also cannot find the device [03:42] Sean: hrmm, try running 'sudo update-usbids' and see if that helps [03:43] Sean: the IPOD icon on your desktop, if you mouse-over it, does it tell you what device it is listed as? [03:43] troy: /dev/sdc2 is what the tooltip says [03:44] and in /media you have /media/sdc2 ? [03:44] troy: yes [03:44] troy: but it isn't consistently enumerated as sdc2; sometimes it's sdb, sometimes it's sda depending on what i've got connected at the time [03:45] troy: i tried to symlink it to /media/ipod, but that seems to not work as well. [03:45] okay - that's where it's behaving differently than my systems. instead of sdc2, I get 'ipod' listed -- so I think it's something with the usb storage layer in hald or usbd, not in the /dev folder [03:46] Sean: try gtkpod when that symlink is active (not the ipod slave, which is flaky at best) [03:46] gtkpod doesn't have a huge problem with it, i just detest the interface [03:46] but it's kludgy to have to re-symlink it when there are other devices active [03:46] I agree, however the ipod slave wouldn't register more than 256 songs for me, even when I put more than 256 on the device -- it wasn't updating the database on the ipod properly [03:47] so I just use gtkpod now === Mez [n=Mez@ubuntu/member/mez] has joined #kubuntu [03:47] would a reinstall of Breezy Kubuntu and an immediate apt-get update and upgrade do the trick?
