[03:13] <johnny77> Do I need Internet to install CLI?
[03:16] <Sullija722> CLI = Command Line Interface
[03:17] <Sullija722> It should be part of your Ubuntu install
[03:17] <johnny77> I'm trying to install a CLI on an older notebook.
[03:17] <Sullija722> Do you have Ubuntu installed on the notebook?
[03:17] <johnny77> not yet.
[03:18] <Sullija722> When you install Ubuntu it will be included
[03:18] <johnny77> But I'm trying to only install a CLI to make sure the older computer will run Ubuntu.
[03:19] <Cheri703> cli is part of the os
[03:19] <Cheri703> so...I don't think you can just slap it on there
[03:19] <Cheri703> what are the specs johnny77
[03:21] <johnny77> I don't know. The old windows installation was corrupted and I don't remember.
[03:22] <Cheri703> ok, so just try it!
[03:22] <Cheri703> if it works, then it works, if not, then it doesn't
[03:22] <Cheri703> try an older version if you're that worried about it
[03:52] <johnny77> Does anyone know how to set up a connection to the internet via the command line?
[03:58] <Sullija722> It is possible but via the GUI is easier
[03:58] <Sullija722> Is there a reason you want to do it via the CLI?
[03:59] <jcollierdavis> i want to do something similar to "cat file.txt | sed x y" where x was a line return and y was a space.  What's the command for that?
[04:00] <Sullija722> ifconfig
[04:01] <Sullija722> man ifconfig to learn more about it but it is not something I would normally recommend using on a beginners channel
[04:02] <johnny77> Sullija722: I installed a CLI only ubuntu. I need to set it up to connect to my network so that I can download a GUI.
[04:03] <jcollierdavis> try wicd-curses
[04:04] <johnny77> jcollierdavis: not installed.
[04:05] <jcollierdavis> which ubuntu are you using?
[04:05] <jcollierdavis> i just did this same thing last week
[04:07] <johnny77> I downloaded the latest alternative CD and preformed a "Install a command-line system"
[04:08] <jcollierdavis> i missed the first part of your Q. could you transfer it to that machine if you had it on another?
[04:10] <johnny77> jcollierdavis: Here is what I did. I took an old notebook and installed a CLI to be sure it would run Ubuntu. I forgot the specifications. (And for the fun and experience)
[04:11] <johnny77> Now I am trying to set up the network so that I can install other software.
[04:12] <jcollierdavis> i installed on a usb but had an ethernet connection at the time
[04:13] <johnny77> jcollierdavis: I tried to set it up during installation, but it was not working.
[04:13] <jcollierdavis> that sucks is it a LAN or wireless?
[04:13] <johnny77> wireless through a router to a cable modem
[04:15] <Sullija722> take a look at this http://www.ghacks.net/2009/04/14/connect-to-a-wireless-network-via-command-line/
[04:15] <Sullija722> YMMV I've never tried it myself
[04:16] <jcollierdavis> what does your /etc/network/interfaces say?
[04:19] <jcollierdavis> johnny77 the link Sullija722 provided works
[04:20] <johnny77> jcollierdavis: I'm working through it now.
[04:20] <johnny77> Sullija722: thank you.
[04:20] <Sullija722> good luck
[04:20] <jcollierdavis> if you're not trying to use WEP or WPA it's pretty straightforward
[04:29] <johnny77> I'm screwed. I keep getting not installed messages.
[04:31] <jcollierdavis> are you on a different machine where you could just transfer the deb onto a usb and then onto the target computer?
[04:40] <johnny77> how do I get the debs from the repository?
[04:44] <ddecator> johnny77: you want to get them manually from the repository? you can get them from the website
[04:44] <johnny77> ddecator: How and what website?
[04:44] <ddecator> johnny77: http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[04:45] <ddecator> select your ubuntu version, select the category (or "all packages" at the bottom), find the package name, click the link, and there should be a link to the deb
[04:46] <johnny77> ddecator: got it downloaded to a thumb drive.
[04:47] <ddecator> johnny77: trying to connect to a wireless network on a server?
[04:48] <johnny77> ddecator: no, I thought I'd have a bit of fun and try to install a CLI to an old notebook. I got the CLI, but can't connect to my network to get a GUI. :)
[04:49] <ddecator> ah, gotcha. well the link Sullija722 posted looks just like what i had to do on my server after getting wpa-supplicant installed by using a thumbdrive, so it should work for you
[04:49] <johnny77> ddecator: is there something special I need to do to mount the thumbdrive?
[04:51] <ddecator> johnny77: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB#Manually%20Mounting
[04:56] <holstein> johnny77: check out wicd-curses
[04:57] <johnny77> holstein: not installed. :)
[04:57] <holstein> yeah, you'd have to take it over
[04:57] <holstein> on the USB stick
[04:57] <johnny77> Thanks you guys have been most helpful.
[04:57] <holstein> and dpkg it
[04:57] <holstein> ive been meaning to try and get away with a CLI only install
[04:58] <holstein> on my old asus EEE
[04:58] <johnny77> holstein: other than setting up the internet it went well.
[04:59] <holstein> johnny77: thats what im unsure about
[04:59] <holstein> connecting wifi in command line
[05:01] <johnny77> how do I install a program from the terminal?
[05:01] <holstein> dpkg'll do it
[05:01] <holstein> let me find a wiki link..
[05:03] <holstein> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingSoftware
[05:03] <holstein> yeah
[05:03] <holstein> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingSoftware#Installing downloaded packages
[05:03] <holstein> :)
[05:08] <ddecator> johnny77: "sudo dpkg -i blah.deb" when you're in the directory
[05:10] <johnny77> thanks again. I need to go to bed. will work on tomorrow.

[06:36] <ddecator> thanks collinp
[07:04] <Gemunu> Hi all.Im from Srilanka.I wana increase ma 13Gb(10gb +3gb swap) to 73 gb.wanna add 60 gb to home. Is it ok to do it with gparted.
[07:05] <UndiFineD> Gemunu: gparted it the tool to do it
[07:06] <Gemunu> yep .bt how to add /
[07:06] <UndiFineD> but is this your current running live system or on another machine
[07:06] <Gemunu> yep this is ma live system
[07:07] <UndiFineD> well, if you want to alter /
[07:07] <UndiFineD> I recommend you use the live cd
[07:07] <UndiFineD> !parted
[07:07] <Gemunu> how can I add /home 60 gb
[07:08] <ubot2> Factoid 'parted' not found
[07:08] <UndiFineD> !fdisk
[07:08] <ubot2> Factoid 'fdisk' not found
[07:08] <UndiFineD> my my that bot needs teaching
[07:08] <UndiFineD> !gparted
[07:08] <ubot2> gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[07:09] <Gemunu> ok I already have a one
[07:09] <UndiFineD> how to do it .. well there are several ways
[07:09] <UndiFineD> my layout looks like this:
[07:09] <Gemunu> shal I send u a screen shot of ma system
[07:09] <UndiFineD> http://paste.ubuntu.com/572954/
[07:11] <UndiFineD> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7607669/desktop/gparted.png
[07:13] <Gemunu> this is ma system
[07:13] <Gemunu> http://gemunu.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/screenshot.png
[07:14] <Gemunu> wan to add 60 gb
[07:16] <UndiFineD> you used a different tool
[07:16] <UndiFineD> that is not gparted
[07:16] <UndiFineD> it is palimpsest
[07:17] <UndiFineD> and cannot grow or shrink a live system
[07:17] <UndiFineD> I would call on synaptic and search: gparted
[07:17] <UndiFineD> to install it
[07:18] <Gemunu> yep I knw that.
[07:18] <UndiFineD> it would be right under palimpsest
[07:18] <Gemunu> i sent it just to understand u
[07:18] <Gemunu> easy
[07:18] <UndiFineD> now you can grow /
[07:19] <UndiFineD> but be prepared for emergencies
[07:19] <UndiFineD> so a backup is recommended
[07:20] <UndiFineD> in gparted you can drag a partition to its new location and resize it too
[07:21] <Gemunu> but how can  grow exactly the /home
[07:23] <UndiFineD> well it is mounted now
[07:23] <UndiFineD> so you need to unmount it
[07:23] <UndiFineD> and you cant
[07:23] <UndiFineD> as you are logged in
[07:24] <UndiFineD> therefore, /home and / need to use a live cd
[07:24] <Gemunu> ok
[07:24] <Gemunu> pls tel me the steps just for now
[07:24] <Gemunu> go on..#
[07:25] <Gemunu> http://gemunu.wordpress.com/?attachment_id=639
[07:26] <UndiFineD> boot livecd, make sure the partitions are not mounted, then start gparted, and choose to move / resize
[07:26] <UndiFineD> eh resize/move
[07:28] <UndiFineD> hmmm, maybe is between starting and resizing you want to select the partition first ;)
[07:28] <UndiFineD> oh and label the partitions, it makes it so much easier
[07:29] <Gemunu> will there any boot problems in future?
[07:29] <Gemunu> after this addition
[07:30] <UndiFineD> well as you have seen from my setup, I choose a small starting partition for /boot
[07:30] <UndiFineD> it only holds grub and the kernels
[07:31] <UndiFineD> and, if you go really advanced, the encryption variables to make it possible to encrypt the rest of the partitions
[07:31] <Gemunu> can u explain this using this http://gemunu.wordpress.com/?attachment_id=639
[07:32] <UndiFineD> yes
[07:32] <UndiFineD> first, I would delete the swap partition
[07:32] <Gemunu> then?
[07:32] <UndiFineD> it can be recreated at the end of the disk, in an extended partition space
[07:33] <UndiFineD> but that can be done later
[07:33] <Gemunu> ok
[07:34] <Gemunu> then pls tel me how to add /home 60 gb
[07:34] <UndiFineD> then I would move your remaining / partition out of the way, so you have space for a proper primairy /boot partition
[07:35] <UndiFineD> mine cruutently takes up 40 MB of space with 2 installed kernels
[07:35] <UndiFineD> but give it a bit of extra space, so you can swap kernels
[07:35] <UndiFineD> 128 mb for /boot would be great
[07:36] <UndiFineD> then / is in your extended partition space, so you move it back till right after you new primairy /boot partion space
[07:37] <UndiFineD> resize / till the end of the disk
[07:37] <UndiFineD> eh resize the extended partition space till the end of the disk
[07:37] <UndiFineD> and then grow / to the desired size
[07:38] <UndiFineD> my current / uses 50 GB
[07:38] <UndiFineD> but that is much
[07:39] <UndiFineD> then create a new partition at the end of the disk for your swap space, make a few mbs more than your internal memory size
[07:40] <UndiFineD> and then create a new partition for /home filling the rest of the remaining space
[07:40] <UndiFineD> done
[07:40] <Gemunu> thanx
[07:41] <Gemunu> veryyyyyy much
[07:41] <UndiFineD> now you can format the new partitions
[07:41] <Gemunu> will there any boot up probs
[07:41] <UndiFineD> and mount them
[07:42] <UndiFineD> for /boot, you need to reinstall grub
[07:42] <UndiFineD> if you copy /boot from your current / to the new /boot
[07:43] <UndiFineD> !grub
[07:43] <ubot2> grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards.
[07:44] <UndiFineD> if correct that would be
[07:44] <UndiFineD> grub-install /dev/sda3
[07:45] <UndiFineD> but that depends on your newly created partition you have for /boot
[07:56] <kidsodateless> hello, i'm helping my cousin, he installed 10.10 on his external hard disk and he got error so the installation was not finish
[07:56] <kidsodateless> the saddest thing is all his impotant files was there.
[07:56] <kidsodateless> could we retrieve or recover it?
[07:57] <bioterror> nothing much to do if you have removed partition and then started to install over it
[07:57] <bioterror> ofcourse you can try to play with testdisk
[07:58] <bioterror> but I think these are the moments when you learn from the mistake
[08:07] <UndiFineD> well there are file recovery tools, but those are hard to work with, and some will be overwritten
[08:08] <UndiFineD> I often have the feeling, learning to work te recovery software almost takes as much time as to rewrite the content lost
[08:55] <kidsodateless> bioterror,UndiFineD, thanks for reponse guys. I hope the partition was not over written.
[09:50] <Chali> Cld  anyone help me with this? "Makefile:5: buildsys.mk: The file or folder does not exist make: *** No rule for creating "buildsys.mk". Halts" :3
[13:55] <NRWlion> hello guys . greetings from Germany
[13:55] <AbhijiT> hi
[15:12] <s-fox> Well met.
[15:14] <NRWlion> good day fox
[15:14] <s-fox> o/
[15:17] <NRWlion> as far as i know we didnt meet yet ... so ill have to introduce myself: NRWlion from Germany (just putting up a wikipage ;) )
[15:19] <jrasmussen_u> if you install packages with apt-get, will you have problems using aptitude?
[15:19] <s-fox> Good to meet you NRWlion :-)  I am usually about, so if you need anything just send a message. My wiki page NRWlion - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Silver_Fox
[15:20] <NRWlion> heard that you are one of the mvp here
[15:20] <NRWlion> ;)
[15:20] <jrasmussen_u> I am in the process of setting up ruby and rails on my ubuntu 10.10 machine and used apt-get to install build_essential, git-core and curl
[15:21] <charlie-tca> jrasmussen_u: should make not any difference to either application.
[15:21] <jrasmussen_u> instead of using aptitude (which I had just installed previously using apt-get) ... I just didn't know
[15:21] <jrasmussen_u> so I don't need to remove with apt-get and reinstall those with aptitude?
[15:21] <jrasmussen_u> confusing me!
[15:22] <charlie-tca> jrasmussen_u: correct. If you installed with apt-get it is fine. You can go back and forth between aptitude and apt-get without problems
[15:22] <jrasmussen_u> also, I read about gtkorphan ... have you used that?
[15:22] <charlie-tca> I am not familiar with gtkorphan
[15:23] <jrasmussen_u> thx for your help... I will continue on with the installation
[15:23] <charlie-tca> You are welcome
[15:23] <jrasmussen_u> http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/aptitude
[15:23] <jrasmussen_u> mentioned here
[15:24] <jrasmussen_u> I don't want to bog my new ubuntu installation down with a bunch of unnecessary features -- but I want it to work correctly.
[15:25] <charlie-tca> hm, aptitude requires apt-get, as I recall
[15:25] <jrasmussen_u> keep reading about conflicts
[15:26] <jrasmussen_u> yes... but once installed it seems like they want you to use it pretty much extensively... my next install will be RVM... and I don't want any conflicts!
[15:26] <charlie-tca> It becomes a choice of each user. If they are aptitude users, they will insist on it. If they are apt-get users, they will insist on it instead
[15:27] <charlie-tca> Aptitude does a little better cleanup on removals
[15:27] <jrasmussen_u> it seems like you use apt-get to install aptitude and then are to use aptitude from then on.  So, I was wondering if I should use apt-get to remove the 3 packages I just installed and re-install them with aptitude
[15:27] <charlie-tca> nope
[15:28] <charlie-tca> Installation is the same no matter which one you use
[15:28] <jrasmussen_u> but, I don't know the best way to do that... I see <sudo apt-get autoremove packagename>
[15:28] <jrasmussen_u> ok
[15:28] <jrasmussen_u> I will just leave it and use aptitude to install from now on... like for rvm
[15:29] <charlie-tca> okay
[15:29] <jrasmussen_u> I am trying to follow http://ryanbigg.com/2010/12/ubuntu-ruby-rvm-rails-and-you
[15:29] <jrasmussen_u> an another article that mentions this article
[15:30] <jrasmussen_u> anyway, thanks again... I will be back if I run into any roadblocks!
[15:30] <charlie-tca> There will be articles for both. Debian now tells its users to use apt-get
[15:30] <jrasmussen_u> right
[15:30] <jrasmussen_u> so, it is not 'cut and dried' -- figures
[15:30] <charlie-tca> Last year it told users to use aptitude
[15:30]  * charlie-tca shrugs
[15:31] <jrasmussen_u> thx
[15:31] <jrasmussen_u> I will go on and hope for the best
[15:32] <charlie-tca> As far as any system is concerned, the operating system does not care
[15:32] <jrasmussen_u> oh... what is Synaptic Package Manager exactly?  And how does it relate the the Ubuntu Software Center?  I know... another question!
[15:33] <charlie-tca> The original installer was apt-get. then aptitude was developed to make apt-get easier. Synaptic Package Manger was created to allow even easier package installation and removal. They all use the same backends
[15:34] <yofel> apt-get and aptitude are command line applications, synatpic is a GUI application (gtk)
[15:34] <jrasmussen_u> oh ok... so I can go in there and view my packages ... see what is going on.  That seems to be about what the gtkorphan package does...
[15:34] <yofel> *synaptic
[15:36] <jrasmussen_u> ok
[15:36] <yofel> as for software center - SC only shows "applications" and hides library packages etc. Synaptic and apt* will show you all existing packages.
[15:36] <jrasmussen_u> being a windows user for year, gui is nice...
[15:36] <jrasmussen_u> but I don't have to have it
[15:36] <jrasmussen_u> *years and years...
[15:36] <yofel> for a new user, Software Center is usually enough - synaptic get's confusing quickly
[15:37] <yofel> (depending on what you want to do)
[15:37] <jrasmussen_u> my first computer had only ms-dos on it... so command line is something I *have* used....
[15:37] <jrasmussen_u> well, I want to learn all I can about the OS and running it efficiently
[15:39] <jrasmussen_u> thanks so much for the information -- I am so glad you are here!
[16:59] <jrasmussen_u> gem install vagrant give me an error -- ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
[17:00] <jrasmussen_u> so, is this ubuntu-related?  Or, is this related to Ruby?
[17:07] <stlsaint> jrasmussen_u: ruby
[17:07] <stlsaint> i havent messed with ruby in some time but im sure there are some gem packages that you need to install
[17:19] <jrasmussen_u> thx
[17:19] <jrasmussen_u> am updaing the gems I already have installed...
[17:19] <jrasmussen_u> I wonder how I would figure out what is missing?
[17:20] <jrasmussen_u> maybe they have a channel for ruby gems... I will look
[17:29] <stlsaint> jrasmussen_u: best to check repositories
[17:34] <jledbetter> jrasmussen_u, Howdy. You doing it outside of the engine yard stuff?
[17:41] <Tomfromdelmonte> sup bioterror
[17:41] <Tomfromdelmonte> hi paultag
[17:46] <bioterror> Tomfromdelmonte, hurt my knee yesterday, some water or another fluid in there :P
[17:46] <bioterror> nothing else :D
[17:46] <Tomfromdelmonte> nice, how did u manage that
[17:46] <Tomfromdelmonte> crawling around in the crawl space again?
[17:47] <bioterror> I dunno, I have skills
[17:47] <bioterror> I was separing clean laundry or something
[17:47] <Tomfromdelmonte> yeah that can be a dangerous business.. laundry
[17:49] <Tomfromdelmonte> anyone have experience of running virtualbox on ubuntu server?
[17:49] <Tomfromdelmonte> or any honeypot software
[18:21] <jrasmussen_u> jledbetter: Yes, so far I am just trying to get this working according to the sign-up instructions... on my newly installed ubuntu 10.10 maching
[18:21] <jrasmussen_u> *machine
[18:22] <jrasmussen_u> stlsaint: check repositories?  how?
[18:23] <NRWlion> some1 on the mailist available?
[18:23] <jrasmussen_u> jledbetter: here is what I get when I try 'gem install vagrant' -- https://gist.github.com/846377
[18:26] <jledbetter> jrasmussen_u, Tried saying which version with -v 0.6.9 ?
[18:26] <stlsaint> NRWlion: sup
[18:27] <NRWlion> sup?
[18:27] <stlsaint> NRWlion: you asked if someone on the mailing list was available....im on mailing list and i am saying what is it that you are wanting to ask??
[18:27] <jrasmussen_u> jledbetter: yep ... no go
[18:28] <NRWlion> oh, just wanted to ask whether my mail came through
[18:28] <jrasmussen_u> I wonder if I will need to use virtualbox 3.2.x and ruby 1.8.7 ... that is what I had to do the first time
[18:28] <NRWlion> already got an answer
[18:28] <jrasmussen_u> then I reinstalled the os and am having to start over --- and trying to remember just what I did.  Andy had me install and point to the earlier ruby
[18:28] <jledbetter> jrasmussen_u, I haven't run into the problem but pathing is coming to mind. Maybe those versions, sure. But I did the default on 10.10 too so hm.
[18:28] <jrasmussen_u> but, I shouldn't have to
[18:29] <jrasmussen_u> I thought that as well
[18:29] <jrasmussen_u> but, don't know enough about ubuntu to figure out how to fix it
[18:29] <jledbetter> 64?
[18:30] <jrasmussen_u> a little knowledge is a dangerous thing!!!  Yes amd64
[18:31] <jrasmussen_u> anyway, I may have to set the ruby default to 1.8.7
[18:31] <jrasmussen_u> and go back to virtualbox 3.2.x
[18:31] <jrasmussen_u> will go get that now I guess
[18:31] <jledbetter> jrasmussen_u, Was it the same error when you did -v 0.6.9?
[18:32] <jledbetter> Well, hopefully the 3.2.x virtualbox will do it. So odd. Makes me wonder if there's a bug report out there. I'm new to the ruby stuff on Ubuntu, as you know, so not sure where to poke.
[18:32] <jrasmussen_u> yes
[18:35] <jrasmussen_u> I think I will try ruby 1.8.7 first and not change the virtualbox yet
[18:36] <jrasmussen_u> worth a try
[18:37] <jledbetter> Ok
[18:38] <jrasmussen_u> i am really liking ubuntu but I have so much to learn

[21:41] <jrasmussen_u> so, I just used the ubuntu software center to install gVim text editor.  It says I should see an icon in applicaitons accessories -- but it is not there.  Any ideas?
[21:42] <bioterror> alt+f2 and type gvim :)
[21:43] <jrasmussen_u> I will give it a try from the command line...
[21:45] <geirha> Sometimes the menu-entry doesn't appear right away. The menu doesn't notice it for some reason. Next time you log in you should see it though.
[21:45] <jrasmussen_u> that works...
[21:45] <jrasmussen_u> thx
