[02:46] Chesamo, I have never used gksudo for anything - what's the difference? [02:46] Chesamo, valid :) [02:46] tenach, it's GUI [02:46] tenach, gksudo is for graphical apps [02:46] Ah. [02:46] I've never done that, just sudo everything ,including graphicall apps [02:46] cmg, gksudo rm /etc/sources.list.d/mediaubuntu.list [02:46] tenach, sudo is usually good, but it can occasionally bugger up GUI programs [02:46] it's nice tenach [02:46] cmg, no that's sudo [02:46] :P [02:47] Oh goddamnit Chesamo [02:47] hahah okay ill give it a shot [02:47] tenach, paultag, cmg: gksudo is for graphical apps and sudo is for CLI apps [02:47] cmg, use sudo. Listen to the lady :) [02:47] Now you know! :P [02:47] :D [02:47] Chesamo, :) [02:47] Yesh. I get it [02:47] Chesamo, I need people like you to keep me in check :) [02:47] can't let my know-how get out of date [02:47] paultag: ;-) [02:48] gksudo doesn't work for me :P:P:P [02:48] DarkwingDuck, damn kubuntu luser [02:48] >:D [02:48] LOL [02:48] KDE RULEZ [02:48] now it says it cant be removed because it doesnt exit -_- [02:48] DarkwingDuck, dude, I was repping hard! [02:48] cmg, paste this exactly: [02:48] cmg, sudo rm /etc/sources.list.d/mediaubuntu.list [02:49] Wife and son (5 years old) use Ubuntu and I use Kubuntu on both my desktop and tablet [02:49] DarkwingDuck, check this out [02:50] DarkwingDuck, http://people.ubuntu.com/~paultag/UbuntuHour/Mass/ [02:50] DarkwingDuck, I'm the one in the Kubuntu shirt :) [02:50] DarkwingDuck, that was at the MA Ubuntu Hour [02:50] SWEEEEEET [02:50] Wait, you use Kubuntu? [02:50] :P:P [02:50] DarkwingDuck, goddamnit, duh [02:50] no luck still and btw i cant copy and paste im on two different machines [02:51] cmg, OK, cool [02:51] >:D [02:51] cmg, try an update. If that fails give us the output of "ls /etc/sources.list.d/" [02:51] cmg, you might have killed it already :) [02:51] hold on, i wasnt in the /etc directory could that be the problem? [02:52] cmg, nah, I gave you absolute paths [02:52] cmg, you should be ok [02:52] okay ill check if the dir is still there then [02:52] cmg, the dir is OK [02:52] cmg, you just don't want the errorful mediaubuntu source file [02:53] May I ask a few questions about a BASH script I'm writing? [02:53] Darkness_Des, don't ask to ask, just ask! :) [02:54] Darkness_Des, we're a friendly bunch, we won't bite [02:54] it's -beginners for a reason :) [02:54] i check the dir and they files are still there, just kill them i suppose? [02:54] cmg, please :) [02:54] cmg, looks like the mediaubuntu.list file [02:54] cmg, don't remove any directories [02:55] i took out the list files [02:55] cmg, _just_ the mediaubuntu one, right? [02:55] cmg, the sources.list in the /etc/apt/ is critical [02:56] Thanks ^_^. I can assure you that this is *probably* going to be extremely dumb. I'm uploading the script to sendspace so you can see what I'm talking about. [02:56] http://www.sendspace.com/file/ek5rv6 [02:56] Darkness_Des, no dumb questions here :) [02:56] there was a medibuntu.list and mediabuntu.list that i removed and i just started my update, so far so good [02:56] cmg, kk, awesome [02:56] Darkness_Des, sorry to do this to you, but do you mind using pastebin? [02:56] Not at all. [02:56] Darkness_Des, it makes it easy to go back and forth [02:56] worked great i really appriciate it :) [02:56] Darkness_Des, http://pastebin.com/ [02:57] !pastebin | Darkness_Des [02:57] cmg, of course :) [02:57] Darkness_Des: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [02:57] ty ZachK_ [02:57] damn paultag you beat me too it [02:57] http://paste.ubuntu.com/446967/ [02:57] There you go. [02:57] ty Darkness_Des [02:57] Nice :) [02:58] so what's the question Darkness_Des? [02:58] Thanks. I've been working on BASH for a while but this one area in particular is a bit difficult to me... [02:58] one last problem haha [02:58] how do i install the java VM? [02:59] cmg, sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk [02:59] cmg sudo aptitude install sun-jaba6-jre [02:59] doh [02:59] +1 Chesamo [02:59] Darkness_Des, sure [02:59] paultag :P [02:59] Darkness_Des, where are you getting hung up? [02:59] Chesamo, I have my hands bound for development [02:59] all I can think of :) [02:59] It's hard to phrase this question, so bear with me. Whenever I try to make the for statements read the file that Zenity output, it downloads all scripts instead of the ones mentioned in the .installer file. [02:59] paultag: understandablt :P [02:59] understandable* [02:59] whats the differenc of sptitude and apt-get? [03:00] cmg, dependency handling [03:00] Darkness_Des, ahha. One sec, let me go into detail [03:01] Hummm, I think I see the issue [03:01] All help is appreciated. [03:02] let me test Darkness_Des [03:02] Ok! [03:04] Darkness_Des, one more sec, almost have it [03:05] just want to make sure it's all bug free [03:06] Fine by me, I've been trying to do the same thing for over an hour. [03:10] hello Appl6 [03:10] One more minute or two Darkness_Des, dumb syntax issue [03:11] Perfectly okay. I have until 10:15, so if it's not finished by then would you mind sending me the incomplete script and I'll see if I can figure it out from there? [03:12] Darkness_Des, sure, np. It's a stupid error ( and I've been doing bash for a while so it's because of the loop I'm doing ) I just have to read a few man pages to find this bug [03:12]
