| tulcak | anyone there? | 05:24 |
| tulcak | ok, well | 05:25 |
| tulcak | I've got a question about rdp server for ubuntu lucid | 05:25 |
| tulcak | and multiple sessions | 05:25 |
| tulcak | but, so far, all I've gotten, including this crap about IRC is a bunch of worthless command line crap | 05:25 |
| tulcak | and, I am really really frustrated | 05:26 |
| tulcak | i just want a nice GUI interface for the ubuntu terminal server to manage multiple remote desktop sessions | 05:26 |
| tulcak | yep, that's what I thought, just talking to the air | 05:27 |
| tulcak | do you know a four letter word for copulate? | 05:27 |
| tulcak | ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha | 05:27 |
| tulcak | one time, at band camp, i kissed a frog | 05:27 |
| tulcak | another time, at a frat party, I got laid... | 05:28 |
| tulcak | you know, the whole reason for computers is for AUTOMATION? in other words, command line is MANUAL. get it? so, if your crap doesn't have a nice and solid GUI, then, what good is it? | 05:29 |
| tulcak | do you know what FUBAR stands for? it stands for the back end of Ubuntu. the GUI is great, the system is great, but, when you ask for a solution, you get pages and pages of command line drivel that ends in crashing you system and having you re-install Ubuntu... what's the deal with that? | 05:33 |
| tulcak | HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO | 05:34 |
| tulcak | ANYONE THEREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE | 05:34 |
| tulcak | TWO PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY LEFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT | 05:34 |
| tulcak | COME ON CAN I MAKE SOME MORE | 05:34 |

| TJ_D | Hi all | 17:05 |
| TJ_D | Anyone available for a question? | 17:05 |
| TJ_D | Well if anyone wakes up here's my question. I'm trying to figure out how to open a text file in terminal that is constantly updated via a logging process, and my goal is to have that file constantly show the updates that are being logged to it in real time, so I can see them as they happen | 17:07 |
| TJ_D | And if you help me figure it out you will make my day! | 17:08 |
| paultag | TJ_D, tail -f | 17:08 |
| paultag | TJ_D, tail -f /path/to/file | 17:08 |
| TJ_D | You are my hero! =) | 17:09 |
| paultag | TJ_D, it's what I do ( said in smooth superhero voice ) | 17:09 |
| TJ_D | So another question then if you have time? >.> My ultimate goal is to have a splitscreen display with one section showing that log as it updates and the other showing what I'm currently working on | 17:11 |
| paultag | TJ_D, look into a tiling terminal, try `terminator', it's in the repo | 17:11 |
| TJ_D | But right now I'm doing it by having two instances of terminal taking up only part of the screen, is there a simpler way? | 17:11 |
| TJ_D | Ok | 17:11 |
| paultag | TJ_D, you might also be able to do that with emacs, or perhaps vim if you try hard | 17:11 |
| paultag | TJ_D, but terminator might be the way to go with that one | 17:11 |
| TJ_D | Thanks again | 17:11 |
| paultag | TJ_D, ain't no thang. | 17:12 |

| bootstrap | Songbird does not display my .ogg files, does anyone know why? | 17:14 |
| paultag | bootstrap, do you have the gstreamer plugin installed? | 17:14 |
| bootstrap | paultag: I do. | 17:14 |
| paultag | cool :) | 17:14 |
| paultag | let me research bootstrap | 17:14 |
| bootstrap | paultag: Thanks, I was unable to find anything though. | 17:15 |
| paultag | bootstrap, can you test this for me? | 17:16 |
| paultag | bootstrap, gst-launch filesrc location="your_ogg_file_path" ! oggdemux ! vorbisdec ! audioconvert ! alsasink | 17:16 |
| paultag | if that works, it's a songbird bug, if not, it's a gstreamer plugin issue | 17:17 |
| bootstrap | paultag: you want me to paste here, its short. | 17:18 |
| paultag | sure | 17:18 |
| bootstrap | gst-launch filesrc location="your_ogg_file_path" ! oggdemux ! vorbisdec ! audioconvert ! alsasink | 17:18 |
| paultag | anything over 5 lines should go to pastebin, but a few lines is OK | 17:18 |
| bootstrap | whoops | 17:18 |
| bootstrap | Setting pipeline to PAUSED ... | 17:18 |
| bootstrap | ERROR: Pipeline doesn't want to pause. | 17:18 |
| bootstrap | ERROR: from element /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstFileSrc:filesrc0: Resource not found. | 17:18 |
| bootstrap | Additional debug info: | 17:18 |
| bootstrap | gstfilesrc.c(1055): gst_file_src_start (): /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstFileSrc:filesrc0: | 17:18 |
| bootstrap | No such file "your_ogg_file_path" | 17:18 |
| bootstrap | Setting pipeline to NULL ... | 17:18 |
| bootstrap | Freeing pipeline ... | 17:18 |
| paultag | bootstrap, ah, you have to edit your_ogg_file_path to be your ogg file path | 17:19 |
| bootstrap | paultag: How would one go about doing that? | 17:19 |
| paultag | bootstrap, gst-launch filesrc location="your_ogg_file_path" ! oggdemux ! vorbisdec ! audioconvert ! alsasink | 17:19 |
| paultag | bootstrap, edit location="your_ogg_file_path" | 17:19 |
| paultag | bootstrap, to your file path for the ogg file | 17:19 |
| bootstrap | paultag: Oh, ha, I didn't even read the line, ok, i'll do that. | 17:20 |
| paultag | :) | 17:20 |
| bootstrap | paultag: Sorry for the delay, that works fine, so the issue is with songbird. | 17:30 |
| paultag | bootstrap, :) | 17:33 |
| paultag | bootstrap, well, let's see here. Are the files in Songbird's root directory? | 17:33 |
| paultag | bootstrap, ( root music directory ) | 17:33 |
| bootstrap | paultag: No | 17:33 |
| paultag | bootstrap, so how does Songbird know they exist? | 17:34 |
| bootstrap | paultag: they are in /media and Songbird displays everything else there except .ogg | 17:34 |
| paultag | so they are in the root music directory | 17:34 |
| bootstrap | yeah | 17:35 |
| paultag | bootstrap, try asking in irc.mozilla.org, #songbird | 17:36 |
| paultag | bootstrap, they would know way better then me ( I don't use Songbird) | 17:36 |
| bootstrap | paultag: Ok thanks. | 17:36 |
| paultag | sure | 17:36 |

| Mjiig | i cannot produce a beep sound in the terminal with any of the following commands: "beep", "echo -e "\a" but my system sound definitely works | 19:40 |
| Mjiig | any help? | 19:40 |
| aveilleux | Mjiig, can you pastebin ( http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/ ) the output of "lsmod |grep pc"? | 20:01 |
| Mjiig | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/501090/ | 20:02 |
| blakpearl | where to find the right guide to begin with ubuntu? | 20:02 |
| aveilleux | Mjiig, are you trying to make a beep out of the computer's PC speaker, or your regular speakers? | 20:03 |
| hobgoblin | blakpearl: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/index.php https://help.ubuntu.com/ are a good start | 20:03 |
| Mjiig | either the pc speakers or my headphones when they're in like the rest of the sound | 20:03 |
| aveilleux | blakpearl, http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 20:03 |
| aveilleux | Mjiig, So you mean regular speakers. The "PC speaker" is a different kind of output that older computers have. | 20:04 |
| aveilleux | Mjiig, Interesting. Let me see what I can dig up | 20:04 |
| blakpearl | thanks a lot guys:-) | 20:04 |
| Mjiig | <aveilleux> yep | 20:04 |
| aveilleux | Mjiig, I've been able to make it "click" by using echo "1" > /dev/audio, but it doesn't work if the speakers are already in use | 20:07 |
| aveilleux | What why did they leave :< | 20:07 |
| aveilleux | Mjiig, I've been able to make it "click" by using echo "1" > /dev/audio, but it doesn't work if the speakers are already in use | 20:08 |
| Mjiig | do you mind if i leave for 1 min | 20:09 |
| Mjiig | i think this app is using the speakers | 20:10 |
| * aveilleux blinkblinks | 20:10 | |
| Bizurke | I came in late. Do you have certain programs taking precedence for audio usage? | 20:11 |
| Mjiig | i can get a click using that command if i close most program, but i still don't get a beep with the other two commands | 20:12 |
| aveilleux | Bizurke, echoing a hardware signal to the speakers doesn't solve the problem, I was just noting something that I'd noticed | 20:12 |
| Bizurke | ah | 20:12 |
| Mjiig | bizurke: i don't think so as there's no error, exit code 0 and i CAN get a click with the command aveilleux gave | 20:12 |
| aveilleux | Mjiig, Oooh, I think I found it. Let me test real quick | 20:13 |
| Bizurke | I remember in the slow switch from OSS to ALSA there was big issues with certain programs taking priority | 20:13 |
| Bizurke | or load order taking priority | 20:13 |
| Bizurke | never had that with pulse though | 20:13 |
| Bizurke | I would have to kill OSS which was running for no reason, then restart ALSA with the program I wanted in focus on gnome in order to get it to play. Big hassle | 20:14 |
| aveilleux | Mjiig, I really don't know, sorry | 20:22 |
| Mjiig | okay, thanks anyway | 20:23 |
| Mjiig | it's not too much of a problem, it's just annoying, knowing i have something that should work and doesn't :) | 20:23 |
| Mjiig | and it would be nice to end scripts with a beep | 20:23 |
| yax51 | ok I have a slight problem | 20:29 |

| aveilleux | yax51, I think the easiest way to fix that would be to use a program called WebCamStudio... I believe it has vertical mirroring | 20:33 |
| aveilleux | yax51, http://www.ws4gl.org/ | 20:34 |
