jszigah_ Can someone tell me how to add the update the source list. i'm having problems editing it. I think I'm doing it wrong02:18
jszigah_for linuxmce 8.1002:18
amasonjszigah_: can just add it manually to /etc/apt/sources.list02:23
jszigah_I tried but it will not let me save it.02:23
amasonjszigah_: it's owned by root02:30
amasonyou will probably want to sudo to root first02:30
amasonthen edit it02:30
amasonor sudo $EDITIOR /etc/apt/sources02:31
jszigah_I sent you a direct chat02:31
amasonjszigah_: yeh i closed it, it's really not polite to do so without asking first. Also it's better to hold the discussion in the channel so other people can see / comment on it. If i tell you to do somethign which someone doesn't think is a good idea then they can provide their opinion etc..02:33
amasonwell the editor i like to use is vi but you can use nano or whatever you like. so i would type02:34
amasonvi /etc/apt/sources.list02:34
jszigah_ok. do I go into terminal02:34
amasonyes. you can launch kate with kdesu if you so wish also02:35
amasonwhich you can execute from krunner02:36

=== kurumin is now known as DeHh
amasonjszigah_: right ok well i don't know what linux MCE is or what it requires. If you wish to add  a line to sources.list you can either use the program kpackagekit02:55
amasonwhich is available in your 'K' menu02:55
amasonor you can open a terminal ( konsole )02:55
amasontype sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list02:56

ubottuKDE bug 258012 in containment-panel "Autohide panel gets visible on taskbar changes and does not hide itself" [Normal,New]04:25
ruffdogsilly question.  I used a partition manager as I was trying to resolve something on one of my drives.  I somehow messed up my config file and can't fix.  I have WinVista and linux dual boot.  I can access both drives separately.  In linux I can't access WinVista drive though.  Any help would be great.04:25

surithank you all i must say IRC is very helpful17:01
surican any one tell me how to view  the list of channels in konversation17:07
macosuri: on most servers you can type /list, but freenode is huge and that puts an undue strain on it, so there's a bot here named alis which you can ask17:07

natalinux is open source, got any way company can earn money from his software like in windows?17:17
=== Guest51734 is now known as kinozawa
=== kinozawa is now known as kInOzAwA
maconata: sell support contracts to take advantage of the fact that most corporations require a support contract for any software not developed in-house so they have someone else to blame at 3am17:26
maconata: thats what red hat and canonical do17:26
natamaco: but this cannot help develop of many new small software from other ability company17:27
maconata: some projects charge for binaries. XChat does this on Windows17:28
macoanyone can get to the source, but if they don't know how to compile or don't want to deal with compiling...17:28
DarthFrogOr you can have two versions, on of which is only of interest to paying customers.17:29
natamaco: this is disadvantage for linux become famous OS. More company will choosing win as dominant17:29
natadn't know future debian package manager can easy install rpm or not.17:32
maconata: windows licenses and canonical support contracts cost about the same. i think canonical is actually about $50 less17:35
maconata: usually though, a switch to linux isnt about price up-front for a company, it's about their reliability needs17:35
macothough, it is often from solaris or aix or something....17:36
macoit's expensive to retrain sysadmins, but if you've got old unix admins17:36
macowell its a lot easier to retrain them to linux than to retrain them to windows17:36
maco"what do you mean i cant pipe sed and awk together with a bit of perl?!?!"17:36
natamaco: contract cost will earn from enterprise only. windows more powerful, wan use, money come 1st.17:37
maco"wan use"?17:37
natahaha, i dn't know how to use17:38
macoit is generally agreed that there's no money in the desktop, period.  servers are where it is. microsoft makes practically nothing from windows17:38
macothe vast majority of microsoft's money is from Office17:38
macobecause most windows licenses are free or like $10 to the OEMs. few people pay full price17:38
=== andrey_ is now known as andrey__
natadn't know why people got free Ooo still like to be use office17:39
andrey__привет русские люди17:40
macobecause MS Office's formats are poorly documented and inconsistent.  if you have to deal regularly with them, OOo can be insufficient. if, on the other hand, you just have to be able to open them and read....OOo is fine. i rarely distribute docs from OOo, just use PDF, but thats no use if the other person needs to edit it too17:40
maco!ru | andrey__17:40
ubottuandrey__: Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке  / Pozhalujsta posetite /join #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke17:40
Eruaran__Most people don't need to edit PDF's they receive17:41
natathe seller like to preinstll windows to earn more directly cause linux not easy to come in for more new user17:41
macoEruaran__: i'm saying PDF is the wrong format to use if the other person wants to edit it, but doc is also unusable for mutual editing if the formating is at all complicated and one of you is using OOo17:42
macoEruaran__: normally i use PDF output from OOo since i know it'll open right elsewhere, but if i need the other person to be able to edit, then i have to use doc and then it'll break17:42
macoand THAT is pretty much microsoft's plan to keep people using MS Office17:42
macoget them to buy it for compatibility reasons17:43
Eruaran__indeed. that is why they corrupted ODF17:43
macoright17:43
macothankfully i know very few windows users who don't also have a linux machine sitting around, so i just use odt :)17:43
natamicrosoft is vy...17:44
natalinux need to become famous so that more hardware support for it. No need like me always need to exchange back windows sometime.17:46

natajust differnt in 1 is use rpm another is deb isit?17:48

ubottunetsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit21:50
