| Willex | hi | 09:35 |
| AbhiJit | hi | 09:35 |
| Willex | is it possible to install only one part of a PPA and leave the rest out? | 09:35 |
| Willex | so that the rest won't keep coming up as updates | 09:35 |
| AbhiJit | after insatlling that one part you can disable the ppa | 09:36 |
| Willex | but won't the system want to downgrade that one installed part? | 09:36 |
| AbhiJit | no | 09:37 |
| duanedesign | yep you can only go up :) | 09:40 |
| Willex | k, thanks bye :) | 09:51 |

| shahan | I want to convert ASCII pdf file to UNICODE pdf. As I want to use the search option of the pdf reader. | 17:14 |
| genupulas | shahan, | 17:19 |
| genupulas | shahan, : i am not getting | 17:19 |
| aveilleux | shahan: I thought all PDF files were in unicode | 17:20 |
| shahan | aveilleux: no... I have some in ASCII in bengali language | 17:20 |
| shahan | genupulas: I have some PDF files which are in ASCII | 17:21 |
| genupulas | shahan, so do you wanna convert them to pdf code | 17:23 |
| shahan | in a big PDF file we are to use SEARCH option to find any thing easily... | 17:23 |
| shahan | genupulas: no... | 17:23 |
| shahan | genupulas: already these files are in pdf | 17:24 |
| geekosopher | my oh my, I thought this is ubuntu-beginners channel, but looks like I got into ubuntu-experts channel ;) | 17:24 |
| genupulas | shahan, sorry i'm still in doubt | 17:25 |
| shahan | genupulas: as UBUNTU doesnt support ASCII writting. its very tough for me to find out on these PDF | 17:25 |
| shahan | genupulas: got the point? | 17:26 |
| Aitrus41 | Anyone know where I can go to get help with the Alpine email client? | 17:26 |
| genupulas | shahan, ...yes | 17:26 |
| genupulas | Aitrus41, google that | 17:28 |
| geekosopher | Aitrus41: I hope you have already visited http://www.washington.edu/alpine/ | 17:28 |
| Aitrus41 | Yeah I have... having trouble with SMTP and can't find the answer anywhere so far | 17:29 |
| Aitrus41 | hoping to chat with someone who could look at the settings and see what's wrong | 17:29 |
| geekosopher | Aitrus41: go ahead and ask the question, anyone who knows the answer will definitely help you | 17:30 |
| Aitrus41 | I'm trying to send mail over port 587 from my work email using Alpine but I keep getting the error "Error sending: Can not authenticate to SMTP server: 334 OK. Continue authentication". I can read mail fine, I Just can't send it. Here are the settings: http://pastebin.com/FzaynLnK | 17:34 |
| Aitrus41 | In Outlook, I check "My outgoing server requires authentication" and I check off "Use same settings as my incoming mail settings" and that grabs mail fine, if that helps | 17:36 |
| ehcah | Hello. I'm trying to run an application using wine. If su to root, I can run it from terminal. As myself, I get "wine: /home/jason/.wine is not owned by you". | 19:05 |
| ehcah | gone to my /.wine directory and ran ls -l. Everything appears to be owned by me? | 19:05 |
| Mjiig | can you run ls -lA | grep wine | 19:07 |
| Mjiig | from your home dir | 19:07 |
| ehcah | drwxrwxrwx 4 jason jason 4096 2010-10-08 15:07 .wine | 19:08 |
| Mjiig | and tell us what it says the folder is owned by | 19:08 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Something you can do is sudo chown -r jason:jason /home/jason/.wine/ | 19:09 |
| aveilleux | Er | 19:09 |
| aveilleux | chown -R | 19:09 |
| ehcah | I actually did that about 20 minutes ago. | 19:09 |
| aveilleux | Weird | 19:09 |
| ehcah | I did not get an error message, but it did not seem to make a different. | 19:09 |
| ehcah | difference. | 19:09 |
| ehcah | Man. I can not type today. | 19:10 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: That's pretty weird... | 19:10 |
| ehcah | I have a security camera application that will only run under windows. | 19:10 |
| ehcah | The web browser requires a functional "ie tab" which is not available for any of the linux browsers. | 19:11 |
| ehcah | Wine is my best shot. Too bad I've been dry since April! ;) | 19:11 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: ...I slap you with feesh for that | 19:12 |
| ehcah | I don't understand why I can open the application using either the wine command or a script from terminal once I've become root. As myself, I' | 19:12 |
| ehcah | I can not. | 19:12 |
| ehcah | LO | 19:12 |
| ehcah | LOL | 19:12 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Do other WINE programs run fine? ex. Notepad | 19:13 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Something else you can try is to run the program from a different directory | 19:14 |
| ehcah | Right now, I can use wine "/home/jason/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/D9-Viewer.exe" from terminal once root. | 19:14 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Yes but do other programs run under WINE as jason? | 19:15 |
| ehcah | If not root wine "/home/jason/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/D9-Viewer.exe" gives me nothing and simply adding "sudo" wine "/home/jason/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/D9-Viewer.exe" tells me I don't own the dir. | 19:15 |
| ehcah | I just opened Notepad from the short cut under Applications. | 19:16 |
| ehcah | So, I guess, yes. | 19:16 |
| aveilleux | Okay. | 19:16 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Move that program directory to your home dir and try it from there | 19:16 |
| ehcah | I've tried installing this app through the WINE gui, without success. Running the command I pasted above is the only way I can get it workign. | 19:16 |
| aveilleux | Wait a sec | 19:16 |
| ehcah | Simply pull it forward? | 19:16 |
| ehcah | k. | 19:17 |
| aveilleux | The exe is located right in Program Files? | 19:17 |
| ehcah | yes. | 19:17 |
| ehcah | I placed it there. | 19:17 |
| ehcah | The original *.exe spit out the run.exe and uninstall.exe files and I chose to place them in that folder. | 19:18 |
| aveilleux | There are no other files associated with the program? | 19:18 |
| aveilleux | as in, it's standalone | 19:18 |
| ehcah | The first time I tried to run it, it was missing some .dll's. I ran an MS patch, and now it works. | 19:19 |
| aveilleux | I sre | 19:19 |
| aveilleux | See* | 19:19 |
| ehcah | I beleive they were installed under the same directories though. | 19:19 |
| aveilleux | Try placing the executable in your home dir and running it from there | 19:19 |
| ehcah | just a sec. | 19:20 |
| ehcah | No dice as "jason" with and without sudo in front. I get wine: /home/jason/.wine is not owned by you | 19:23 |
| aveilleux | Oh then it's a wine config problem. | 19:23 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Do you have any other WINE programs? | 19:24 |
| ehcah | nope. | 19:24 |
| ehcah | This was the first besides notepad. | 19:24 |
| aveilleux | Try this, then. | 19:24 |
| aveilleux | sudo aptitude purge wine && rm -r ~/.wine && sudo aptitude install wine | 19:25 |
| aveilleux | Then run winecfg | 19:25 |
| aveilleux | That'll completely uninstall then reinstall WINE | 19:26 |
| ehcah | running now. I thought about that. Would apt-get autoremove wine have worked? | 19:26 |
| aveilleux | Autoremove is a different command. | 19:26 |
| ehcah | ok. I wasn't sure. | 19:27 |
| aveilleux | Aptitude automatically runs autoremove every time it runs | 19:27 |
| ehcah | ok. I had a lot of problems building an HTPC a few weeks ago and getting LIRC and imon working. | 19:27 |
| ehcah | installed, removed a lot. | 19:28 |
| ehcah | I've got winecfg open. | 19:28 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Head over to the "Audio" tab, just to get that automagically set up | 19:28 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Then you can hit "Apply" and close it | 19:29 |
| ehcah | There is no audio driver currently specified in the registry? | 19:29 |
| ehcah | workign now. | 19:29 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Yes that. | 19:29 |
| ehcah | ok. It's closed now. | 19:29 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: What's the name of the executable file? | 19:30 |
| ehcah | D9-Viewer.exe | 19:30 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Run sudo chown jason:jason ~/D9-Viewer.exe | 19:31 |
| ehcah | done | 19:32 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Now try wine start /home/jason/D9-Viewer.exe | 19:33 |
| ehcah | err:module:import_dll Library CovH264ToAvi.dll (which is needed by L"Z:\\home\\jason\\D9-Viewer.exe") not found | 19:34 |
| ehcah | err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"Z:\\home\\jason\\D9-Viewer.exe" failed, status c0000135 | 19:34 |
| aveilleux | You may have to run that Windows patch again | 19:34 |
| ehcah | I'm looking for it. I hope I kept it. | 19:34 |
| aveilleux | !pastebin | ehcah | 19:34 |
| ubot2 | ehcah: 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. | 19:34 |
| ehcah | Sorry man. | 19:34 |
| ehcah | I usually do use pastebin. | 19:34 |
| aveilleux | No problem | 19:34 |
| ehcah | It was one long line in my screen. | 19:34 |
| aveilleux | WINE usually reports errors on separate lines | 19:35 |
| aveilleux | Now you know | 19:35 |
| ehcah | yeah. | 19:36 |
| ehcah | I'll have to find that patch.exe again. | 19:36 |
| ehcah | When I find it. Do I run it from terminal using the wine command? | 19:36 |
| ehcah | Might as well install it correctly this time. | 19:36 |
| aveilleux | Hang on a sec | 19:36 |
| ehcah | k. | 19:36 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Can you link where you got the patch? | 19:39 |
| ehcah | I have to find it first. I wish Chrome in Linux was as easy as in Windows7 to find past links... | 19:40 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Doesn't ctrl-H bring up the history? | 19:41 |
| ehcah | I did it the hard way. I vaguely remembered it coming from support.microsoft.... and starting looking for auto completes. | 19:43 |
| ehcah | http://support.microsoft.com/kb/259403 | 19:43 |
| ehcah | It is more information. I beleive that is the file I downloaded. | 19:43 |
| aveilleux | Ah, the VC redist | 19:44 |
| aveilleux | Yea, you'll want to do wine start <name of executable> | 19:45 |
| ehcah | I'm about 99% that is is. | 19:45 |
| ehcah | from the ~/Download folder? | 19:45 |
| ehcah | and obviously as "jason" not "root". | 19:46 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Sure, it doesn't really matter where you run it from | 19:46 |
| aveilleux | Yes. | 19:46 |
| ehcah | It's asking me where I want to place the extracted files? | 19:47 |
| aveilleux | There's never any reason to run anything in WINE as root | 19:47 |
| ehcah | I'm paranoid now. :( | 19:47 |
| ehcah | I know - now. :( | 19:47 |
| aveilleux | C:/Windows/system32 | 19:47 |
| aveilleux | Should go there | 19:47 |
| ehcah | k. | 19:47 |
| aveilleux | dll files always go into system32 | 19:47 |
| ehcah | I can't get to it. Their Browse Tree only shows regular files and directories. Not hidden. Ctrl+H doesn't expand it. | 19:48 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: As... A Windows file? It should just be c: | 19:49 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: Don't be in Z: | 19:49 |
| ehcah | Ok, so back in my Win7 folder? | 19:49 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: What are you talking about? | 19:50 |
| ehcah | My goal is to completely rebuild this laptop as 100% linux once I know everything works. | 19:50 |
| ehcah | I'm on a dual boot. | 19:50 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: The | 19:50 |
| ehcah | C:/ is my actual Win 7 folders... | 19:50 |
| aveilleux | ..... | 19:50 |
| aveilleux | That's not how it should appear to WINE | 19:51 |
| aveilleux | Linux handles drives completely differently than Windows | 19:51 |
| ehcah | fonr | 19:51 |
| ehcah | done. | 19:51 |
| aveilleux | The "C:\" in WINE is a pointer to ~/.wine/drive_c/ | 19:52 |
| aveilleux | It's not related to your actual Windows partition | 19:52 |
| ehcah | The files are under c:/Windows/system32 | 19:53 |
| aveilleux | Now try running the original program | 19:53 |
| aveilleux | wine start D9-Viewer.exe | 19:53 |
| ehcah | same error as before the update. | 19:54 |
| aveilleux | Then that patch was the incorrect one | 19:54 |
| ehcah | It's all I added. | 19:55 |
| aveilleux | I have to go, I'll be back in about 20 minutes | 19:56 |
| aveilleux | Then I'll be at an actual computer and I can help you better | 19:56 |
| ehcah | I don't think I dare take anymore of your time. I'll leave this channel open though. | 19:56 |
| aveilleux | Well I was actually just in class :P | 19:57 |
| ehcah | Oh man. I thought I was bad that I am supposed to be working, on the laptop to my immediate right! :) | 19:58 |
| aveilleux | ehcah: ping | 20:17 |
| ehcah | Hello | 20:34 |
| ehcah | Came back from the Dead. | 20:34 |
| ehcah | I like your exit message. | 20:34 |
| Kentrel | Hey, I haven't run linux for a while, but I haven't changed anything, but suddenly my wacom tablet isn't working | 20:51 |
| Kentrel | Its plugged in, but doesn't work | 20:51 |
