[06:34] <skrippy11> I just upgraded my hp mini 311 to 10.04 and my wired and wireless connections don't work.  Help forums say that I should get broadcom network drivers, but how do I do that with no internet access? can I access them from a USB drive?
[14:31] <cprofitt> hey all -- any bash experts?
[15:02] <jmburgess> cprofitt: not particularly, but whats up?
[15:06] <cprofitt> I am trying to take the results of a grep and have them execute
[15:10] <jmburgess> oh
[15:10] <jmburgess> I have no clue how to do that
[15:10] <jmburgess> haha, have you tried googleing around?
[15:11] <pedro3005> cprofitt, eh, use python
[15:11] <pedro3005> :P
[15:16] <cprofitt> jmburgess: I have
[15:16] <cprofitt> I think not knowing the 'command name' is causing issues
[15:17] <cprofitt> I have searched on executing the results of grep
[15:17] <cprofitt> and not gotten anything
[15:17] <Puck`> you should setup a var that will be the result and execute that var
[15:18] <Puck`> at least logically that's how i would think it'd work
[15:18] <cprofitt> hmm... would that be a one line command still?
[15:18] <Puck`> well one line to setup the var
[15:18] <Puck`> and one line to execute it
[15:18] <Puck`> put it in a bash script file and done
[15:18] <geirha> jmburgess: You want to execute the output of grep? I don't like the sound of that.
[15:19] <Puck`> or the task is to do this in one line?
[15:21] <geirha> You can do   grep | bash   but be certain that the file you grep does not contain any malicious commands.
[15:22] <cprofitt> geirha: thanks... I wrote the file so it does not
[15:23] <geirha> Still, there are probably better ways to achieve what you're trying to do.
[15:23] <cprofitt> perhaps... but that worked...
[15:23] <cprofitt> so +1000 geirha
[15:23] <Puck`> (:
[15:25] <cprofitt> geirha: are you a BT member?
[15:26] <geirha> No, I just hang around.
[15:26] <stlsaint> been around for quite some time
[15:27]  * mohi1 looks at stlsaint
[15:27] <Puck`> hey mohi1 (:
[15:27] <stlsaint> mohi1: DONT WATCH!! WATCH TV!!!

[15:28] <mohi1> hey Puck`and pedro3005 lets play with him in BT :)
[15:29] <geirha> I dropped by to ask something about a beginner programming challenge at the ubuntuforums a long time ago.
[15:30] <geirha> And I seem to have accidentally added it to the autojoin list
[15:30] <stlsaint> pedro3005: DONT WATCH ME!!! WATCH TV!!!
[15:30] <pedro3005> stlsaint, TV is boring
[15:31] <geirha> Have you downloaded and watched the Pioneer One pilot?
[15:31] <geirha> Was quite good for such a low budget.
[15:31] <Puck`> nothing is accidental, we have you in our force
[15:31]  * Puck` *winks*

[19:54] <pedro3005> :D
[19:56] <zkriesse> win_2_linux: HOORAY!!!
[20:09] <nUboon2Age> win_2_linux: I'm curious, since I just started experimenting w/ wubi, did you encounter any issues that made you want to move away from it?
[20:11]  * DarkNemesis_ wishes to use tor for all except https
[20:12] <nUboon2Age> DarkNemesis_: is that a reply to my question?
[20:13] <DarkNemesis_> nUboon2Age, ummmmmmmm guess not
[20:13] <nUboon2Age> DarkNemesis_: I'm not following you.  What does it mean 'wishes to use for all except https'?  Wish to use what?
[20:14] <DarkNemesis_> tor
[20:14] <DarkNemesis_> !tor
[20:14] <ubot2> Want to hide your IP while connected to freenode? See http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks  More information available in #freenode
[20:14] <win_2_linux> nUboon2Age it has its limitations, and wasn't supposed to be a permanent thing, and it started acting freaky
[20:14] <nUboon2Age> DarkNemesis_: thank you.  interesting...
[20:15] <nUboon2Age> win_2_linux: I'm curious, what symptoms?
[20:17] <duanedesign> win_2_linux: is the new install working well?
[20:18] <DarkNemesis_> nUboon2Age, tor is a proxy sytem
[20:19] <win_2_linux> duanedesign so far its only been a couple of hours lol
[20:19] <duanedesign> :P
[20:20] <nUboon2Age> DarkNemesis_: thank you.  interesting...
[20:20] <win_2_linux> nUboon2Age everyone is different, it started to freeze where i had to take the battery and unplug the cord in order to get it started
[20:21] <nUboon2Age> win_2_linux: ohhh.  gotcha.  good to know.
[20:21] <win_2_linux> I did it on an old lapttop a dell d600 with xp and wubi
[20:21] <win_2_linux> so if you have a newer laptop it might not act up on you
[21:45] <win_2_linux> whats a good email program
[21:46] <win_2_linux> i've tried thunderbird in the respositories but its old and buggy so i d/l the new tz which doesn't seem as buggy i want to install that version now how do i install a bin file
[21:53] <pedro3005> win_2_linux, I'll get a link for you in a sec
[21:53] <pedro3005> god damn slow internet
[21:54] <pedro3005> win_2_linux, http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1361203&postcount=2
[21:54] <win_2_linux> thanks pedro
[21:54] <kdotj_> win_2_linux, was there a deb file available?
[21:54] <kdotj_> oh wait, the new thunderbird is only tar for now isn't it
[22:01] <win_2_linux> kdotj yes
[22:07] <phillw> win_2_linux: don't forget that gmail can be configured to receive mail from most email accounts and send as that email account
[22:08] <win_2_linux> phllw it works its just not in the right directory its in my download i want to put in where it wil show up in my menus
[22:09] <win_2_linux> right now its in download
[22:10] <phillw> i've not used thunderbird for many years, once i got my gmail account ::coughs:: a few years ago, I've stayed with them and just link other accounts to it.
[22:14] <phillw> i recall the guy who wrote the backup system for thunderbird stopped supporting it, so I'm not too sure what level of back up system there currently is.
[22:18] <win_2_linux> i found a deb file for it
[22:21] <phillw> win_2_linux: have you hade a read of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ThunderbirdNewVersion yet ?
[22:22] <phillw> that covers 10.04 ubuntu
[22:24] <win_2_linux> no but found the deb file on sourceforge
[22:24] <win_2_linux> just read it thanks.  3.0 was buggy
[22:24] <win_2_linux> it wouldn't open all the way and th menus were black
[22:24] <win_2_linux> etc
[22:27] <phillw> that link has how to add the daily build, which is always .. ermmm.. interesting (I run the chromium one as I use lubuntu)
[22:28] <win_2_linux> what is lubuntu?
[22:30] <win_2_linux> oh nevermind a lighter ubuntu
[22:32] <phillw> win_2_linux: yeah, the baby :-)
