jribcrazy_: hi09:46
jribless traffic here09:46
crazy_how to run .bin file09:46
jrib!cli09:46
ubotuThe linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal09:46
crazy_done09:47
jribcrazy_: do you have a terminal open?09:47
crazy_yes09:47
jribnow navigate to the Desktop with:  cd ~/Desktop09:47
jribnote that linux is case-sensitive09:47
crazy_it shows "roy@roy-ubuntu-ppc:~/Desktop$"09:47
jribgood09:48
jribnow type this:  chmod +x name_of_the_bin_file.bin09:48
jribchange the name of course :)09:48
jribI didn't know realplayer had a powerpc version09:48
crazy_someone give me a url to download09:49
jriboh09:49
jribok, any output from those commands so far?09:49
crazy_wait.  do I need to type +x09:49
jribyou need to type all of it:  chmod +x name_of_the_bin_file.bin09:50
jribjust change "name_of_the_bin_file" to the name of your bin file09:50
jribyou can type the beginning of the name and press TAB, that should autocomplete it09:50
crazy_no right click cannot copy name, so very slow, wait a while09:50
jribthat's why TAB is great09:51
crazy_done09:52
jribok, now do:  ./name_of_bin_file.bin09:53
jribyou can use TAB again to save time09:53
crazy_wait the first cmd bring back to : roy@roy-ubuntu-ppc:~/Desktop$09:53
crazy_correct?09:53
jribyep09:53
crazy_ok09:54
jribif you get no output that means it worked09:54
crazy_done09:55
jribthat should be it09:55
crazy_wait make mistake09:55
crazy_it is extracting09:56
jribk09:56
jribbe sure you read the docs about the command line that ubotu gives, it's a pretty gentle intro09:56
jrib!cli09:57
ubotuThe linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal09:57
crazy_it said: press enter ro continue09:57
crazy_ok09:57
jribafter this, you're on your own, I've never installed realplayer on linux :)09:57
crazy_:)09:57
crazy_it ask me :Enter the complete path to the directory where you want09:57
crazy_RealPlayer to be installed.  You must specify the full09:57
crazy_pathname of the directory and have write privileges to09:57
crazy_the chosen directory.09:57
nalioth!realplayer09:59
ubotuFor multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats09:59
crazy_it said installed finish done, but cannot find realplayer on the menu09:59
jribnalioth: he's on ppc though10:00
jriboh it does have instructions there10:01
jribI search for "ppc" when I looked, but it says "powerpc"10:01
crazy_ppc means powerpc10:01
jribno biggie, I just repeated what was there10:02
jribcrazy_: try typing 'realplayer' in a terminal10:02
crazy_izzi10:02
crazy_:)10:02
crazy_I try just now but cannot work10:02
jribwhat does it say10:02
crazy_finished installation, but I cannot find reaplayer from the application menu10:03
jribwhat does it say when you type 'realplayer' and press enter10:03
crazy_u mean at terminal?10:03
jribyes10:04
crazy_command not found10:04
naliothjrib: in that case, he's screwed10:04
jribwhat happens when you type 'real' and then press TAB twice?10:04
jribnalioth: heh, how come?10:04
naliothjrib: lots of closed source multimedia stuff isn't available for ppc10:04
naliothinstalling an i386 bin on a ppc machine doesn't mean it'll work10:05
jribah, the wiki links to a ppc download though.  I'm assuming he has that one10:05
crazy_jrib: yes10:05
crazy_results :roy@roy-ubuntu-ppc:~/Desktop$ realvncpasswd10:06
jribk, it's not that10:06
crazy_it ask for password , I enter and it said password too short10:07
jribcrazy_: how about 'hx' and then TAB twice?10:07
jribclose that, it's not the right command10:07
crazy_that is helix player I install yesterday10:07
crazy_why real TAB twice said password too short?10:08
jribI don't know, are you still in that realvnc prompt?10:09
jribhit ctrl-c a couple of time10:09
jribs10:09
crazy_did10:10
jribapaprently it's supposed to be "realplay"10:10
jribtype that and press enter10:10
crazy_cmd not found10:10
jribdon't know then10:11
jribask Real10:11
crazy_oh there is a folder call realplayer on desktop10:11
jribah wait, I think I know what happened.  We didn't install it with sudo10:12
jribmaybe you can run it from your desktop anyway, do 'cd realplayer'10:12
crazy_i double click on realplay and the player comes out now10:13
jribk, that works too10:13
crazy_i dun understand "maybe you can run it from your desktop anyway, do 'cd realplayer' "10:13
jribnever mind10:13
jribif you can just double click it, then that's ok10:14
