[21:35] Need help re-installing Firefox... Anyone? [21:36] MindOS_: sup [21:37] MindOS_: you need to re-install it...make sure you back up your current profile so you can keep bookmarks and such...then just either use synaptic or terminal commands for it [21:39] stlsaint: I havent updated Ubuntu 9.04 since months, not having any other problem though, except Firefox, which keeps crashing every minute or so. I have backed up the bookmarks etc. What next? [21:41] stlsaint, see it crashed again... [21:41] MindOS_: your using irc via firefox? [21:42] stlsaint, yeah [21:42] reinstalling a package rarely fixes anything... [21:42] MindOS_: i suggest using an actual irc client jfyi [21:42] sudo apt-get purge firefox > sudo apt-get install firefox [21:42] I'd try moving away the profile and let firefox create a new profile [21:43] MindOS_: so just go to synaptc package manager and search for firefox and select to reinstall it [21:43] If you're not using any other mozilla apps; quit firefox, mv ~/.mozilla{,.backup}; start firefox again [21:44] or you can just create a new profile [21:44] firefox -P [21:44] (when all instances of firefox are closed) [21:45] PEOPLE!!! We really appreciate the responese but lets not overwhelm the user. [21:45] Keep it simple for the user [21:45] haha, sorry, i just saw something about using a new profile and thought i'd give the command we ask users to use when they file firefox bugs :p [21:45] stlsaint, synaptic package manager also needs an repository update from through sudo apt-get update...or it wont work...right? [21:46] MindOS_: yea sudo apt-get update will work for you...it will probably be awhile for updates [21:47] stlsaint, I am on very limited bandwidth, haven't updated it since months and its showing errors as well. [21:47] MindOS_: what errors [21:47] (also, just re-installing FF shouldn't remove your profile) [21:48] stlsaint, wait a sec, I'll post it [21:48] +1 ^^...though a backup wouldnt hurt [21:48] MindOS_: do not post here [21:48] MindOS_: use pastebin [21:48] true [21:49] stlsaint, http://pastebin.ca/1887280 [21:50] MindOS_: you running cairo dock? [21:50] You're missing the gpg key for repository.cairo-dock.org [21:50] no, but i have it installed... [21:50] MindOS_: your trying to update from their repos but either their down or your connection reaching [21:50] stlsaint, how about removing it from the system, I don't need it.. [21:50] geirha: that shouldnt hinder updates from happening [21:51] MindOS_: i dont cairo so i dont know the package name of it but if you remove that repo entry from your sources.list and purge cairo that will solve the cairo key/server error [21:51] stlsaint: No, it'll just show annoying errors everytime one does. [21:52] geirha: very true and very annoying [21:52] «The domain name cairo-dock.org has unfortunately changed ! Now, you can find the website, wiki, forum, repository, doc, etc. on glx-dock.org» [21:52] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CairoDock [21:53] MindOS_: so you have an option of either updating your sources.list to glx-dock.org or completely removing cairo [21:53] stlsaint, I would like to completely remove it.. [21:53] removing the cairo repository, you don't need to remove the package. [21:54] geirha: there has to be something installed.... [21:54] MindOS_: first step is to remove that cairo sources.list entry [21:54] Either way you'll have to edit sources.list and either remove or edit a line or two [21:54] stlsaint: Yes, but you don't need the repository once it's installed ... you just won't get any updates for it. [21:55] geirha, how to go around doing that task!? [21:55] geirha: right, thats why i said remove the sources.list then remove the package that was installed.... [21:55] MindOS_: open a terminal... [21:55] MindOS_: The easiest way is to use software sources. System -> Administration -> Software Sources [21:55] girha, I have opened software sources.. [21:56] MindOS_: type: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list [21:56] Go to the third party tab [21:56] LOL...or use the gui...very true!! [21:56] geirha: ;) [21:56] Locate the cairo-dock line [21:56] And either deselct it, or edit it and change cairo-dock.org to glx-dock.org [21:57] stlsaint: always go with the gui by default in support channels :p [21:57] geirha: he wants to remove the entry [21:57] ddecator: meh, most instances true...some its faster for cli [21:57] geirha: OK...then I need to uncheck the box for cairo..right? [21:57] ddecator: plus im multitasking :D [21:58] stlsaint: faster definitely, but sometimes i mention commands and it throws people off haha. i just offer the gui until i know if they're familiar enough with cli :) [21:58] MindOS_: Yes. [21:58] geirha: ;), then? [21:58] stlsaint: haha, i was doing that last night :p [21:59] MindOS_: The close button in the lower right :) [22:01] geirha: it asked for a Reload.. and I clicked it...was it right? [22:01] MindOS_: Yes, that's equivalent to an «apt-get update» === bgs000 is now known as bgs100 [22:02] geirha: Update Manager has started... asking for an update sized 233 MB ...I am on limited bandwidth.. [22:02] geirha: But I surely need to sort out Firefox [22:03] There are ways to download the updates on a different machine (one with better bandwidth), and bring them to your computer via a memory stick or cd [22:04] geirha: You are right , but is it a pre-requisite for sorting out the Firefox matter? [22:04] Yeah, I'm not convinced reinstalling firefox will do any good. It's typically a plugin or addon that makes it crash. [22:05] Have you tried disabling all addons? [22:05] geirha: Yeah, I have tried that as well [22:06] How about Opera for Linux compared to Firefox? [22:07] Haven't tried opera for linux for ages, but I hear it works well. [22:07] geirha: ANy other way of installing it instead of downloading it from their website? [22:08] I'm afraid you can't make it magically appear on disk without the package. [22:14] bah, go chromium/chrome [22:27] hello [22:27] might i ask for help regarding lucid lynx? [22:28] You may. [22:29] i had a freak chain of accidents recently :\ first ubuntu stoped connecting to the net then i discoverd the network manager dosent work at all and by following the advice of some site i purged my gnome desktop and now i stare at the command line with no idea how to restore what i did [22:30] Ok, have you logged in on the command-line? [22:30] yep [22:30] sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop [22:30] ah you mean to the net ? [22:30] then no [22:31] that exactly the problem i dont have an idea how to log to the net using the command line === kermiac_ is now known as kermiac [22:31] Ah, you're not connected to the net at the moment? I see. What type of connection is it? wired or wireless? [22:31] wired connected to vpn network and using mpls connection [22:31] mpls? [22:32] sort of connection that allways allows you to be connected [22:32] Hm. And you need to authenticate with vpn to get on the internet? [22:33] nope the connection is allways on [22:33] even now my router is broadcasting and im using my notebook to talk with you :) [22:34] Ok, so you really only need to run a dhcpclient [22:34] that the command "dhcpclient" ? [22:34] Do you know the name of the network interface? eth0 most likely [22:35] yeah that eth0 [22:35] Ok, try: sudo dhclient3 eth0 [22:36] Then, ping www.google.com to see if you have a connection [22:37] :\ strang it says i dont have any device named eth0 [22:38] what devices does ifconfig list? [22:38] :) [22:38] it works [22:38] :) [22:38] the ping works too :) [22:39] Great, now you can reinstall ubuntu-desktop :) [22:39] lets see it sudo apt-get gnome-desktop? [22:39] ubuntu-desktop [22:40] sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop or sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [22:41] :) muhaha it works :) [22:41] thank you alot geirha [22:41] No problem :) [22:42] i think i will stick to this chanel and see what more i can learn :) [23:36] Hullo [23:38] Hello there, I figured this would be best place to ask, I've been commisned by mother to set up my old laptop for one of her very computer illerate friends... I was wondering which flavour of linux(ubuntu) would be best for someone used to Win XP... and some programs that can make her transition from XP to Linux a easy and painfree one. [23:39] Sorry about my fail at grammar there on a secondary note. >.< A wee bit tired today. [23:42] not exactly an expert but it think 10.04 notebook remix could be the answer [23:43] besides it will prevent her from doing things that will harm the OS since its locked like a fortress === Guest27163 is now known as kermiac_ [23:43] Well aren't all of them.... sense rootpass word i'll keep XD [23:43] sence** === kermiac_ is now known as Guest6361 [23:44] ah that an option now that you mention it you can set the os to automaticly log as her user and keep the root pass :) to prevent accidents === Guest6361 is now known as kermiac-work [23:45] She has arthritus or something... so she can't sit up strait which is reason I'm giving her old LP... and so she still has her old XP... she does a lot of research papers etc... [23:45] I'm thinking about attempiting to "Intergrate" Docs.google.com some how in her LP and desktop === kermiac-work is now known as kermiac_work [23:46] that way beyond my current knowledge :) [23:47] I think the her "Application bar" will consit of 4 things, Firefox, Hot link for docs. Kopete and direct link for Ubuntu support :P [23:49] My Biggest issue is that if somehting grows wrong while ii'm at college she should be able to resolve it her self. [23:50] hi there. does anyone has any idea about streamming? [23:50] A little Malev_ [23:50] well you could allways try and ask someone to explain to you how to set the LP for remote access via the net [23:50] hi Bigleon how are you? [23:50] Fine, what exactly do you need help with. [23:50] Bigleon, I'm researching about live streamming with theora for a comunitary channel from Argentina. [23:51] rev my college kills off VPN like none other. [23:51] I'm planning to use giss.tv [23:51] but not sure about choosing an mp3 channel or a ogg. [23:51] Alright, so are you wanting to view streamed material or stream out material? [23:51] Bigleon, to stream out material. [23:51] Well Ogg... is linux friendly... and assuming you got patch Mp3 is universaly friendly. [23:52] lol [23:52] revolver i went all the way up to head of department just so i can could get a vpn on campus network so i could access my server in dorm room from anywhere on campus... they are like "use ours" Theirs 250mbs of space... mine 1tb... [23:53] Bigleon, ... that is the problem. I need it to be universally friendly. Does ogg work on any PC? [23:53] Ogg not so much... I would say mp3 or mp4... [23:54] I have a ogg copy of David mathews band sitting on my HD and i haven't beeen able to listen to it because WMC, Itunes, and Zune all refuse to play it. XD [23:54] oks! thanks Bigleon [23:54] bigleon what did you said you wanted the layout of the OS to be ? i will try and see hwo it works on my netbook [23:54] ah the cheerful sound of new guys helping out [23:54] how* [23:54] Check out one of the Main Help Channels for further information on streaming process i'm sure they can help... [23:54] welcome to revolverXD1 Bigleon [23:55] thx :) [23:55] Recolver if you do that it would be awesome I can't work on the laptop for another 2 weeks.. Left it at home, (going to a wedding next weekend so spendign to weeks at the gf's.) [23:56] Umm Super basic layout, that has easy access to Firefox, Kopete, Hotlink for google docs, and a hotlink for Irc, with explanation under each button. [23:56] ok working on it will take some time [23:56] zkriesse I love linux and prefer to use it, unfortunately I'm a big video gamer.. and microsoft rarely supports the other. [23:57] If Stream would be more Linux friendly I think i might get Kubuntu 64bit back. [23:58] I also got a ATI video card in here, and last i heard ati doesn't support debian all to well.. unless something has changed in the last 2 years. [23:58] Bigleon: True [23:59] Have they made an easier to install Dual boot for debian/win7? [23:59] i was using windows since the age of 8 and now a month ago i decided i had enough and now i find myself in totally alien enviorment [23:59] Bigleon: eh not sure [23:59] revolverXD1: Ah cool...what version/distro are you using?
