nlsthznHey all...06:14
nlsthznI assume yesterday was a holiday in SA... so everyone make this a long week-end and stayed home today too?06:17
superflynuvolari: ping06:33
superflynlsthzn: yes, something like that... except I'm at work06:33
nlsthznsuperfly: Me too... and using USB with persistancy enabled... now I can't update cause I am behind a proxy and I can't figure out how to make it work in terminal (using FF in it now)06:34
superflynlsthzn: do you know your proxy?06:34
superfly*proxy settings06:35
nlsthznsuperfly: sure... I am using it currently for FF to work... tried setting it up in System->Preferences->Network Proxy... even tried editing some or other bashrc file from a post in ubuntu forums... no luck06:38
superflynlsthzn: well, apt doesn't use the system proxy settings, so if you know your proxy settings, then we can set apt to use it06:45
nlsthznsuperfly: yes please :D :D :D06:46
superflynlsthzn: you need to create a file called "01proxy" in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d06:47
superflyin it you need one line that looks like this:06:47
superflyAcquire::http::Proxy "http://server.com:1234";06:47
superflycase is important, so capital A, capital P06:47
superflyso, if I was using my proxy server at home, I'd use Acquire::http::Proxy "http://192.168.1.250:3128";06:48
nlsthznsuperfly: authentication?06:49
superflyurm...06:49
Owkkuriuser:pass@host maybe?06:49
superflypossibly06:49
nlsthznlol... currently I have gotten apt-get to attempt to use the proxy... but it fails at the authentication step... 06:52
nlsthznI added info to /etc/bash.bashrc06:53
nlsthzn#proxy export http_proxy=http://DOMAIN\\username:pasword@server:port/06:55
nlsthzntwo lines obviously06:55
superflyah06:55
* superfly just bought the Humble Indie Bundle #207:04
superflynuvolari: Osmos looks addictive07:05
nlsthzn-_-,07:12
superflybraid is nice, not terribly new, but I haven't played very far into the game07:15
* nlsthzn tried what superfly suggested but no luck without a username and password 07:18
superflynlsthzn: did you try Acquire::http::Proxy "http://username:password@host:port"; ?07:19
nlsthznno... brb07:22
nlsthznhow about domain?07:24
nlsthznsuperfly: because that didn't work (or do I need to do something else for it to initialise or something)?07:26
superflynlsthzn: erm, you can try adding the domain like you previously did for the http_proxy environment variable07:30
nlsthznsuperfly: funny thing is... that didn't help anything... at all 07:31
nlsthznI undid all I have done... for now07:33
superflynlsthzn: I think there's a way that you can tell aptitude/apt-get to tell you which files it wants to download, then you can always wget them and install them using dpkg -i07:34
superfly(nasty, horrible, no good hack!)07:35
tumbleweedwhat kind of proxy is it?07:40
tumbleweedMS ISA proxies aren't supported by almost everything07:41
nuvolarisuperfly: it *IS!!!*07:41
nuvolarisuperfly: does your braid work?07:51
nuvolari:/ mine's not :'(07:51
nlsthzntumbleweed: don't know... but it uses windows authentication ... corporate PC @ work07:52
superflynuvolari: on 32bit, yes07:53
nlsthznsuperfly: sounds like work.. will update at home tonight (easy)07:54
superflynuvolari: do you have the ia32 (or whatever it's calleD) installed?09:04
nuvolarisuperfly: what do you mean?09:27
superflynuvolari: if you are running 64 bit, there are some 32bit libraries you can install09:30
superflyis32-libs09:31
superflyba09:31
superflyia32-libs09:31
superflyhttp://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/ia32-libs09:31
nuvolariooh09:54
nuvolarisuperfly: well I have them installed 09:54
nuvolaridid it previously09:54
superflynuvolari: look in Braid's directory, and try renaming some of the .so files so that Braid uses your system libraries09:55
superflye.g. libstdc++.so => _libstdc++.so09:56
nuvolarisuperfly: ah, thanks, will give that a try10:50
