[02:29] does anyone have complete guide 'shell'? [02:31] co_cr_pcr, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [02:32] thank you [02:33] co_cr_pcr, sure, it is sort of a learn as you go for me. [05:12] I'm trying to play a game that requires a CD be in the drive, but I don't have the physical CD with me. I mounted an image to the mnt folder and it's in there but the game is still saying there's no cd. [05:12] I just put it all directly in /mnt/ should it be in a folder or something? [05:13] actually it's telling me there is no drive, much less a DVD. [05:15] How do I un-mount the files? [05:15] umount [05:15] might not work [05:15] depends on what the software is looking for [05:16] new install of ubuntu, wont let me connect to internet. any suggestions? [05:16] amn3z1a: wired? wireless? [05:16] both [05:16] available [05:17] so, its hooked up wired? [05:17] when you boot? [05:17] yes [05:17] and no dice? [05:17] whats it hooked up to? [05:17] a router? [05:17] but it does not see an active wired connection [05:17] yes [05:18] it sees wireless connection, but not the wired [05:18] connect tot he wireless connection then [05:18] does not connect to either [05:18] got it set to DHCP [05:18] what is the error with the wireless? [05:18] it asks for DHCP client ID [05:19] not sure how you have your router configured [05:19] but you might want to look at that [05:20] it connected when i was running ubuntu off the cd, but now that it has been actually installed, it does not want to connect [05:20] amn3z1a: not sure what to tell you [05:20] i dont get a 'DHCP client ID' prompt [05:20] never seen a prompt like that [05:21] i was assuming it had something to do with the router config [05:21] amn3z1a: you got wireless working live? [05:21] on wireless with laptop... trying to get desktop to connect [05:21] from a live CD [05:21] using the laptop [05:22] prior to installation [05:22] laptop on W7 [05:22] you got wireless working? [05:22] OR was that wired? [05:22] O I C [05:22] desktop normally connected to wired, its a gaming rig [05:22] but has a wireless adapter that was working just fine [05:23] amn3z1a: 10.10? [05:23] i would open a terminal [05:23] run lspci [05:23] 192.168 [05:23] paste that in pastebin [05:23] and maybe someone will come along [05:23] with that hardware [05:24] with no net i cannot paste to pastebin [05:24] sounds like the wired device may not be supported [05:24] you have a USB stick? [05:24] it SEES the wireless networks available, it just wont connect [05:24] you dont need all of lspci [05:24] anyways [05:24] just the network adapter [05:24] amn3z1a: is this 10.10? [05:24] 10.04? [05:25] i was connected 10 hours ago, running off the cd. then i installed ubuntu and it won't connect to anything [05:25] right [05:25] i hear you [05:25] was this a 10.10 live cd? [05:25] yes [05:25] that you installed from? [05:25] OK [05:25] im about to duck out for the nite [05:26] its cool [05:26] i bet it will be quiet in here for a bit [05:26] but [05:26] if it were me [05:26] i would double check the router config [05:26] then, look in lspci [05:26] open a terminal [05:26] run the command [05:26] lspci [05:26] and you should see some info about your networking and other hardware [05:27] thats a good place to start [05:27] Atheros Communications Inc. Device 002c (rev 01) [05:27] for example from mine [05:27] i clicked terminal and it came up with terminal server client, not a command window like normal [05:27] and i google 'ubuntu Atheros Communications Inc. Device 002c (rev 01)' [05:27] and look for forum posts [05:27] and/or bugs [05:28] amn3z1a: you can close terminal server client [05:28] and try again :) [05:28] same thing [05:28] anyways, if the wireless worked live [05:28] you should be able to sort that out [05:28] amn3z1a: same thing? [05:29] opens termin server client, not a command window [05:29] im sure you'll sort it out [05:29] you can always hit control+alt+F2 [05:29] BUT [05:29] let me tell you how to get back [05:30] should be control+alt+F7 [05:30] amn3z1a: is the mouse not clicking on what its hovering over? [05:30] do other menu items work properly? [05:30] mouse works fine [05:31] for wireless its asking for SSID, BSSID, MAC, and MAC Clone [05:31] amn3z1a: i think i know whats up [05:31] i think you are in the 'internet' menu [05:31] terminal is in the 'assesories' menu [05:32] i am in 'edit wireless connection' [05:32] amn3z1a: 'its asking' ? [05:32] what is it? [05:32] the gnome network manager? [05:32] that will depend on your router config [05:32] for me [05:32] ur right, i opened cmd window now [05:32] i find my ssid [05:32] in the list [05:32] click on it [05:33] enter my wpa pass [05:33] and im given an IP and online automagically [05:34] i got lspci results and see the wireless adapter [05:34] and alot more stuff [05:34] how about the wired? [05:34] anyways [05:34] thats a good step [05:35] if you want to get a USB stick [05:35] and copy that over [05:35] i got host bridges, pci bridges, IDE interface [05:35] so you can get some help with it [05:35] i would try and get it online wireless [05:35] since you did that before [05:35] then [05:35] update the box [05:35] see if the updates get you support for the wired adapter [05:36] amn3z1a: if youre entering information for the wireless adapter [05:36] i say [05:36] throw the current settings out [05:36] and try entering the creds again [05:36] thats probably it [05:36] okies [05:36] a typo in the pass or something [05:37] i entered info for wired, it popped up connection then it was gone [05:38] amn3z1a: you shouldnt need info for wired [05:39] it is set on DHCP but it wont even see the wired connection [05:39] hey guys, just wondering if anyone knows how I adjust the sensitivity for resizing windows.. i get about a pixel of play before it ignores my feeble attempts [05:40] morgan__: mouse sensitivity not going to help? [05:40] nah, its more that it has to be RIGHT on the edge of the window [05:40] i think you can set up a key to make the mouse more 'precise' [05:40] literally pixel for pixel [05:40] morgan__: OH [05:40] i know what you mean [05:41] ;) [05:41] i havent decided to take that on yet [05:41] nah, the mouse would drive me nuts if it wasn't set up right, it just seems more difficult to resize windows now.. [05:41] amn3z1a: we dont know if your wired device works or not [05:41] stop trying that for now [05:41] IF the wireless worked once [05:41] live [05:41] then [05:41] delete the current wireless config [05:41] for your ssid [05:42] and build it again [05:42] nothing is listed in SSID [05:42] and double check the pass [05:42] amn3z1a: you said you could see the access point right? [05:42] yes [05:42] right [05:42] so click on it [05:42] it sees a bunch... i only want to connect to mine. [05:42] i know the pw [05:43] ok [05:43] im suggesting you entered the password incorrectly [05:43] so, you need to go to the wireless networks [05:43] caps lock off... typing it correctly, showing password [05:43] amn3z1a: whats the error? [05:44] it is not showing the 'connect' button, it is shaded [05:44] telling me i am missing info [05:44] have you deleted the info? [05:44] and started over? [05:44] no info to delete [05:44] its all blank [05:45] except for DHCP [05:45] amn3z1a: try connecting to another access point [05:45] if one is open [05:45] how do i see available wireless networks? [05:46] theres a little icon [05:46] down near the time [05:46] you click on that [05:46] and under there is a catagory [05:47] 'availalbe' [05:47] the one when i scroll on it it says 'No Network Connection'? [05:47] it might [05:47] looks like a wifi signal [05:47] yup [05:47] Connection Information is shadowed [05:48] do you see your AP or no? [05:48] negative [05:48] ok [05:48] i dont see any of the ones i see on my laptop when i look at avail wireless [05:48] so how did you connect when you were using the live CD? [05:48] laptop? [05:49] wireless, i entered pw and i was online [05:49] where did you enter the pass? [05:49] it saw it when i was booting live, now that i installed it sees nothing [05:49] i have several theories [05:50] umm... where it said 'Password; [05:50] none are easy [05:50] =P [05:50] since you cant get online at all [05:50] wired [05:50] BUT [05:50] or wireless [05:50] on the desktop [05:50] you probably need a proprietary driver for your wifi card [05:50] nothing works on desktop [05:50] right [05:50] well, if you want to start pulling some of that lspci data over [05:51] maybe somebody can help with that [05:51] you'll need a USB stick though [05:51] i say [05:51] someway to move data to the box without internet [05:51] in those cases [05:51] i have so many wired pci network cards laying around [05:52] i usually just throw one in [05:52] and let it get the stuff i need [05:52] drivers, updates [05:52] whatever [05:53] lspci text saved [05:53] this could be the case https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx [05:53] not sure [05:53] and plugged in here [05:53] dont know what card you have [05:53] you'd be shocked... [05:53] yeah? [05:53] its an ASUS M4N82 Deluxe mobo [05:54] realtek onboard lan [05:54] where can i paste the info? [05:54] http://paste.ubuntu.com/ [05:56] holstein, http://paste.ubuntu.com/566851/ [05:57] i need another table for my laptop... no room at the desk to set it [05:57] too much equipment hooked to the desktop [05:59] amn3z1a: save that output somewhere handy [05:59] i need to crash [05:59] on the jump drive... [05:59] that'll help somebody else help you sort that out [05:59] thx for ur time holstein [05:59] anytime :) [05:59] =] [05:59] GN [06:00] sleep well [07:00] Anyone here know how to compile bsnes on Ubuntu Lucid Lynx? [07:10] Guest19901, extract packafe and read README or INSTALL [07:12] http://byuu.org/bsnes/compilation-guide [07:12] I need to figure out how to use pastebin [07:12] I am new to IRC [07:13] OK that was easy [07:13] http://paste.ubuntu.com/566861/ === Puck` is now known as dNb === dNb is now known as dnb [07:42] Guest19901: apt-cache policy libsdl1.2debian libpulse-dev [07:42] (could you pastebin that too?) [07:43] Use that as a command? [07:45] http://paste.ubuntu.com/566865/ [07:46] I've never seen the command apt-cache policy [07:46] I am adding that to my list [07:48] Hm I think it just doesn't have the latest list of packages. sudo apt-get update [07:48] I'll try [07:49] Well it was worth a shot: [07:49] http://paste.ubuntu.com/566866/ [07:50] Same as before unless I am mistaken [07:50] Thank you for helping [07:51] apt-cache policy libsdl1.2-dev [07:51] It should have one for version 1.2.14-4ubuntu1 and 1.2.14-4ubuntu1.1 [07:51] http://paste.ubuntu.com/566867/ [07:52] Indeed, it's missing the latter, which leads me to believe the mirror you are using http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/, is currently out of sync [07:53] You could switch to the main server, or wait it out, until the us mirror has been fixed. [07:54] I'll check software source then. Or is that where to go? [07:55] OK, I changed it to see. [07:55] Yes, first tab of software sources [07:55] It's downloading package information right now [07:57] I don't like the color of this game, but I like the idea: [07:57] http://www.nongnu.org/tong/ [07:58] It says 3 to 4 minutes [07:59] Haha, that looks incredibly hard [08:01] Ya, I barely played it when I had Fedora installed once. [08:02] It is crazy [08:02] the balls bouce off of the moving pieces if I remember right [08:03] Sorry, unknown time should always be listed as far as I am concerned. Just kidding though [08:03] 31 of 41 [08:04] It says second for instance. Go figure. [08:07] OK, just to make sure it really is still downloading info I clicked on the drop down box called Show for Individual files and it shows files being down loaded in action with a moving bar for the package it is working on downloading the info for. [08:07] just to let you know [08:07] 33 of 42 [08:08] Seems the main server is slow [08:09] I wouldn't know. Maybe it's my connection. But I have done torrenting which doen't do bad speed IMO. Currectly I have nothing else happening. I am not downloading any torrent or uploading any torrents or surfing the web [08:10] I have software sources, the webpage to pastebin and this channel open and nothing else going on [08:11] software source just disappeared on me [08:11] it must have been about 30 seconds ago [08:12] Was that suppose to happen? [08:12] OK, I got a different question about this. [08:13] What about the updates tab? [08:13] Anyways, lets see if what you said to do worked [08:13] Do I need to update [08:14] No, software sources just ran an update. [08:14] apt-cache policy libsdl1.2-dev [08:14] Check that that one now lists the ...1.1 version [08:15] http://paste.ubuntu.com/566870/ [08:15] Was software sources supposed to just disappear? [08:16] I think so. At least if you hit the Close button after changing server. [08:17] I've tried going to synaptic package manager, edit fix broken packages before. Should I try that again? [08:17] I didn't close any window for software sources. It closed on it's own [08:18] Hm. Then it might have crashed ... which it shouldn't have. [08:19] Try a manual apt-get update [08:20] http://paste.ubuntu.com/566872/ [08:20] Strike that [08:21] I went to synaptic package manager, edit, fix broken packages [08:21] then sudo apt-get update [08:21] http://paste.ubuntu.com/566873/ [08:21] Ah, they lock each other out :) [08:22] OK, now what do you think [08:22] Hm. I don't see any lucid-updates in there. apt-cache policy libsdl1.2-dev still says the same? [08:22] Other then I should have used a question mark at the end of my last sentence [08:23] trying [08:23] http://paste.ubuntu.com/566875/ [08:24] That's what I thought also [08:24] Go back to software sources and make sure lucid-updates is enabled in the Updates tab [08:25] I'll check. Like I meant, what should be in the update tab of software source? [08:25] OK, I am going to say what is marked [08:26] You want -security and -updates. -proposed and -backports only if you have particular needs. [08:26] Important Security updates (Lucid Security) [08:26] chack for updates daily [08:27] at the bottom I have long term release supports only [08:27] So, I should have recommented updates chacked [08:27] ? [08:28] ok, that makes sense [08:28] Yes, that's why it fails. [08:28] You could switch back to your us mirror then, while you're at it. [08:28] OK, next to go as mario says [08:28] OK, I will [08:29] OK, one other thing about this [08:29] under the tab other software, what should I have? [08:30] should I just have all of them? [08:30] Other Software is where it lists all the PPAs and such. And also the partner repository. [08:30] I have 2 others I installed. [08:30] I'd only enable the ones I'd need [08:31] OK, but I don't know what is needed [08:32] The other 2 are. 1 is for dolphin the emulator which runs slow because I don't have the power for it, so I am going to evenually uninstall that soon [08:32] not now thouhg [08:32] resize the window so all lines show, then hit Alt+Printscreen and imagebin it [08:32] imagebin [08:32] !imagebin [08:32] ? [08:32] Screenshots can be made with the [PrtScr] button. Want to show us a screenshot of your problem? Upload an image to http://imagebin.org/?page=add and post a link to it. [08:33] ha ha, I didn't know. Cool [08:34] Where does the image get saved? [08:35] At some server behind imagebin.org [08:35] Never mind, I used the gui instead [08:35] Oh, you meant with Alt+Printscreen [08:36] Wow, nice and clear [08:36] http://imagebin.org/137858 [08:36] Here, it pops up a dialog asking you where to save it. [08:36] sorry for the trouble [08:37] Ooop, I pressed the wrong key when doing alt-printscreen [08:37] that's why it didn't work [08:38] Ah, ok. partner is nice to have if you need some of the non-free software. Doesn't hurt to have it enabled. The second one is some PPA you have added. As long as you have packages from that PPA installed, I'd keep it enabled. [08:38] OK, just a second [08:39] http://imagebin.org/137860 [08:39] I love that, thank you [08:39] That looks good [08:40] http://imagebin.org/137861 [08:41] http://imagebin.org/137862 [08:41] and the other is an easy choice [08:41] Yep, hit Close and then Reload when it asks [08:41] OK [08:41] Reload does the equivalent of apt-get update [08:42] O, I didn't know. Thank you for telling me. [08:42] While I am waiting. I am going to the stall if that's OK [08:43] No! You sit there till you're done! [08:43] ;P [08:50] Anyway, I'm off to work. Hope you got it fixed now. :) [08:51] thank you [08:51] I will retry [08:51] I feel 10 times better after using the stall [08:51] ha haha [08:54] It's in progress. Yes. [08:55] Now I can try compiling other things that weren't working. Thank you dude [08:56] I was messing around with software sources before and didn't know what I was doing. [08:59] I am updating through update manager now [09:00] but the packages installed that are apt-get packages for bsnes, then I tried installing the make and it didn't work [09:00] so I am going to re-download bsnes and try after updating through the update manager [09:01] :p [10:02] Hello. [10:04] hey Silver_Fox_ [10:04] Hello duanedesign :) [10:04] Hello all [10:04] http://paste.ubuntu.com/566903/ [10:05] http://byuu.org/bsnes/compilation-guide [10:07] I don't see any configuration file, and that's not mentioned so it can't be ./configure [10:07] Guest19901: are you using Ubuntu? [10:08] Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx [10:08] I mena are you using Gnome [10:08] ok [10:08] yes [10:08]
