| RainCT | persia: Thanks. (Feel free to send me a memo if you fell like answering my last question :)) | 00:13 |

| terli | how do you cat FROM a terminal's input to a file? | 02:15 |
| tbrock | hey guys I'm looking for a developer mentor | 02:23 |
| tbrock | or someone to point me in the right direction to get started | 02:24 |
| tbrock | and i was hoping this was the place | 02:24 |
| tbrock | anyone around? i know its a friday night but... haha | 02:28 |
| Adri2000 | tbrock: please join #ubuntu-motu | 02:29 |
| tbrock | oh thanks | 02:42 |
| tbrock | apologies | 02:42 |
| cjwatson | terli: assuming you start cat from the terminal in question, then surely its standard input will already be the same as the terminal's input, so you just need 'cat >file' or 'cat >>file' (depending on whether you want overwrite or append) | 03:15 |
| terli | ok cjwatson let me run this simple script on you | 03:25 |
| terli | colaudio(){ cat | > XTR;} | 03:25 |
| terli | cataudio(){ echo "$XTR" > /dev/audio; echo "$XTR";} | 03:25 |
| terli | while [ true ] | 03:25 |
| terli | do | 03:25 |
| terli | colaudio; cataudio; | 03:25 |
| terli | done | 03:25 |
| terli | that is the sum and the square of my insanity. | 03:25 |
| cjwatson | terli: I'm not sure what you think "cat | > XTR" is supposed to do, and the following line seems to suggest that you're confusing files and variables. Furthermore 'while [ true ]' is a strange way to say 'while true' | 03:30 |
| terli | it was in the manual *sheepish* | 03:31 |
| terli | I was originally using [ 1=1 ] | 03:31 |
| terli | my question is how to run the script, add input while script is running, and have the script process the input | 03:32 |
| cjwatson | [ anything ] means "is 'anything' a string of non-zero length" | 03:32 |
| cjwatson | you might need a better manual ... | 03:32 |
| cjwatson | perhaps what you are looking for is replacing that whole script with 'tee /dev/audio'? | 03:33 |
| terli | omg | 03:34 |
| terli | where did that come from!?!? | 03:34 |
| cjwatson | assuming that I've understood what you're trying to do correctly (a program that takes its standard input and writes it both to its standard output and /dev/audio" | 03:34 |
| cjwatson | ) | 03:34 |
| terli | o yes its just supposed to echo my noisy typing to dev/audio | 03:34 |
| === RAOF_ is now known as RAOF__ | ||
| cjwatson | if you don't need to write it to its standard output as well, you could just say 'cat >/dev/audio' | 03:34 |
| ebroder | Be careful with tee - it does do some buffering of some sort | 03:35 |
| terli | well that command works but I cant hear it | 03:35 |
| cjwatson | there's no need for all that complicated cat/echo stuff which isn't going to do anything like what you want anyway | 03:35 |
| === RAOF__ is now known as RAOF | ||
| ebroder | terli: Try just using cat >/dev/audio if you can survive without seeing it; there might be buffering happening | 03:35 |
| terli | I can't hear it like that either | 03:36 |
| terli | its sending everything to a second buffer | 03:36 |
| cjwatson | if you really want to do line-at-a-time stuff and strictly avoid buffering, then a working translation would be 'while true; do read line; echo "$line" >/dev/audio; echo "$line"; done' - but if you can't hear it when you type at 'cat >/dev/audio' directly then you have a lower-level problem | 03:36 |
| terli | there is ONE issue | 03:38 |
| terli | I'm hacking on parallels | 03:38 |
| terli | and I had to copy bash onto bin | 03:38 |
| terli | I mean bash onto sh | 03:38 |
| cjwatson | that's a bug in whatever script can't cope with /bin/sh not being bash | 03:39 |
| cjwatson | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DashAsBinSh | 03:39 |
| terli | sudo mv /bin/sh /bin/sh.old && sudo ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh is the command I had to run | 03:39 |

| Treenaks | karthik_: look at libwnck | 07:07 |
| Treenaks | karthik_: Ubuntu does it the same way as other Gnome-using distributions | 07:08 |
| Treenaks | karthik_: http://library.gnome.org/devel/libwnck/stable/ | 07:08 |

| isle85 | Hi, need help to build a debian/watch file for my package. its name is : genj-arvernes_2008.12.26-0ubuntu1_all.deb | 11:10 |
| directhex | isle85, and what's the url for the orig.tar.gz for that deb? | 11:12 |
| isle85 | I wrote that in it : | 11:12 |
| isle85 | version=3 | 11:12 |
| isle85 | http://www.arvernes.com/files/genj_classic/genj-arvernes-(.*)\.tar\.gz | 11:12 |
| directhex | that wasn't technically the question. i asked the url for the tar.gz, not the contents of your watchfile | 11:15 |
| isle85 | sorry : http://www.arvernes.com/files/genj_classic/ | 11:15 |
| directhex | http://www.arvernes.com/files/genj_classic/genj-arvernes-2008.12.26.tar.gz | 11:17 |
| directhex | The requested URL /files/genj_classic/genj-arvernes-2008.12.26.tar.gz was not found on this server. | 11:17 |
| isle85 | maybe my mistake as I named genj-arvernes-2008.12.26.tar.gz as genj-arvernes-2008.12.26.orig.tar.gz | 11:19 |
| directhex | sigh. | 11:19 |
| === asac_ is now known as asac | ||
| directhex | look, i'm not trying to irrutate here, but there seems to be some kind of barrier going on. a watch file needs to know the exact path of the file to download for a specific version. when i say "what's the url for the orig.tar.gz for that deb" i literally mean "what's the full url to the file you download and rename as genj-arvernes_2008.12.26.orig.tar.gz" | 11:20 |
| directhex | also, this is for #ubuntu-motu, not #ubuntu-devel | 11:20 |
| isle85 | sorry directhex. Thank you for helping. | 11:21 |
| directhex | as an example, a watch file saying " http://ftp.novell.com/pub/mono/sources/mono-basic/ mono-basic-([.\d]+)\.tar\.bz2" is used to download http://ftp.novell.com/pub/mono/sources/mono-basic/mono-basic-2.0.tar.bz2 | 11:23 |
| isle85 | ok, understood. Thanks | 11:23 |
| directhex | as far as i can tell, that upstream doesn't even have versioned source tarballs | 11:24 |
| isle85 | I'm totally new to that, and I tried to help to distribute a program people here write. I've been successfull to build an ubuntu package, now I would like to make it easier for people to be up to date with it. I'm learning , sorry. | 11:25 |
| directhex | the path to the source seems to be http://www.arvernes.com/V1/pages/compteur_dl.php?/files/genj_classic/genj_src.zip | 11:26 |
| directhex | but that's unversioned AND requires repacking from zip | 11:27 |
| isle85 | hmm, now the file is there : http://www.arvernes.com/files/genj_classic/ubuntu/genj-arvernes-2008.12.26.tar.gz | 11:30 |
| directhex | you seem to have picked an inordinately complex example to build a watch file for | 11:36 |
| isle85 | I've downloaded lots of source files, and try to find out and understand the way it works looking into them | 11:37 |
| directhex | that orig can't be used as-is, it contains an enormous quantity of binaries, which aren't permitted in source tarballs | 11:37 |
| directhex | also, this is for #ubuntu-motu, not #ubuntu-devel | 11:38 |
| isle85 | ok, I'm gonna join that chanel. thank you directhex. | 11:39 |
| lubosz | hi | 14:06 |
| lubosz | any ideas when the zsnes package will be fixed in intrepid? | 14:06 |
| lubosz | are there any intensions to do that? | 14:06 |
| lubosz | is this a support question? ^^ | 14:08 |

| restartme | I have just installed ubuntu, and it's pissed me off so please help | 20:48 |
| restartme | So | 20:48 |
| restartme | Can't you just say how to boot cmd, not gui? | 20:48 |
| ebroder | restartme: This is not the right place to be asking. Ask in #ubuntu. People aren't going to help you in here | 20:48 |
| restartme | Oh | 20:48 |
| restartme | Is too hard for you | 20:49 |
| restartme | :( | 20:49 |

| ebroder | Yep. And trolling and being belligerent is going to get you /all/ of the help in the world | 20:50 |
| Ng | restartme: if you're not comfortable with shells, installing the nvidia drivers by hand is probably not a good idea. they are packaged in Ubuntu (see System->Administration->Hardware Drivers) | 20:54 |
