| Ford_P | I have a complaint | 05:44 |
| Ford_P | and need to vent for a moment. | 05:44 |
| Ford_P | I've installed Ubuntu and for awhile everything worked fine. | 05:45 |
| pleia2 | this is a support channel and we're all volunteers to help support users, venting at us won't be particularly useful and will only demotivate us | 05:45 |
| Ford_P | but in the end things start to break and with every upgrade or code release it's a roll of the dice if it breaks something or not | 05:45 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | Hi Ford_P. Your upgrage gave issues? | 05:46 |
| Ford_P | which leads me to my other point. I've not once gotten support that has fixed anything. | 05:46 |
| Ford_P | it's more or less leading me on wild goose chases | 05:46 |
| Ford_P | at the end of the day I just want it to work. Period. | 05:47 |
| Ford_P | I've had several issues. | 05:47 |
| pleia2 | Ford_P: this really isn't the place for venting | 05:48 |
| Ford_P | ok fine. Then I have an issue with my sound card and I'm not able to get it to work. I don't have weeks to spend researching the issue. | 05:49 |
| Ford_P | I've checked alsamixer however it won't store my changes | 05:49 |
| pleia2 | I've had luck with "ubuntu-bug audio" mentioned here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems | 05:50 |
| pleia2 | it walks you through several tests and then collects data for a bug report if nothing works | 05:50 |
| Ford_P | so the frustration comes as a fairly new user that getting support is difficult and you have several different suggestions which may or may not solve the problem. | 05:51 |
| Ford_P | The other thing is when reading the forums the issue might not totally relate to your issue | 05:52 |
| Ford_P | so maybe 50% of what's suggested may apply. | 05:52 |
| pleia2 | please stop being mean :( we do our best | 05:53 |
| Unit193 | Try the page she linked to, it's helpful. | 05:53 |
| Ford_P | not being mean. Just really really frustrated | 05:53 |
| pleia2 | you can buy commercial support: http://www.canonical.com/enterprise-services/ubuntu-advantage | 05:53 |
| Ford_P | and have not found adequate help | 05:53 |
| pleia2 | you are being mean, I am trying to help you and all you've done is insult us about how unhelpful we are | 05:54 |
| pleia2 | it's not productive, it's mean and not really appropriate here | 05:54 |
| Ford_P | no insults have been directed to anyone in the chat. | 05:55 |
| Ford_P | this is directed with the product | 05:55 |
| Ford_P | rather, at the product | 05:55 |
| pleia2 | we are not developers of the product, this is not the place to rant | 05:55 |
| SleepyzTunz | hmm maybe go back to crappy windoz | 05:55 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | Ford_P: Try to understand that we are contributing to the community. We are not getting paid and we do our part for the community. Insulting/ talking in frustration wont give anything. I prefer you to try the solutions available. All of us here have different machines and we try different things. Its all upto your machine hardware and you can't blame us for not supporting. | 05:56 |
| Ford_P | that's always an option. I know with nearly 100% certainty that it will work. | 05:56 |
| SleepyzTunz | yea | 05:56 |
| Ford_P | this isnt blaming anyone in the chat | 05:57 |
| Ford_P | missing the point | 05:57 |
| pleia2 | then please stop, this is a support channel | 05:57 |
| pleia2 | if you don't want support, please take your rant elsewhere | 05:57 |
| Unit193 | This isn't a venting channel | 05:57 |
| SleepyzTunz | yea | 05:57 |
| Ford_P | I want support. I've been trying to solve an issue | 05:57 |
| pleia2 | no you haven't, I gave you a link and a suggestion and all you did was complain about us | 05:58 |
| SleepyzTunz | kic em | 05:58 |
| Ford_P | I've already looked at the site from a previous day | 05:58 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | Ford_P: Try posting your issue in ubuntuforums.org, specifying your hardware and other stuff. you will get answers in minutes | 05:59 |
| Ford_P | minutes? | 05:59 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | SleepyzTunz: Sometimes, we have to understand the person seeking help. So, kicking is not a solution =] | 05:59 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | Ford_P: Yes. Provided you mentioned all the methods you tried plus your driver details plus your current status | 06:00 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | Ford_P: Good regarding that and you can see a sample post in ubuntu forums regarding sound issue | 06:00 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | s/Good/Google* | 06:00 |
| Ford_P | at this point I guess there are very few other options | 06:01 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | I have to go out for a while. brb | 06:01 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | Ford_P: If you provide enough details and methods you tried, you will get a narrow answer for your issue.. Thats how we do if we fail in solving our issues | 06:02 |
| Ford_P | ok I'll give it a try and see what happens. | 06:03 |
| sanbar | Ford_P: Good Luck! | 06:03 |
| Ford_P | thanks | 06:03 |
| sanbar | np | 06:03 |
| sanbar | I did not see the problem with Ford_P until just now (read the history). I think you guys handled it very well and professionally. | 06:19 |

| rainstake | HI, I have an error when trying to run a program to update my garmin 250 maps, here is the error output: Archive: /media/9475-A297/GarminMapUpdater_v3.0.5.exe [/media/9475-A297/GarminMapUpdater_v3.0.5.exe] End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on | 06:45 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | rainstake: Are you using Wine? | 06:47 |
| rainstake | yes, I have it installed. | 06:47 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | I don't think you can update a .exe application | 06:48 |
| Snicksie | how are you trying to run it, rainstake ? is it in terminal, did you doubleclick on it in your filemanager, did you rightclick and choose the program wine to open it with, ...? | 06:48 |
| Snicksie | he wants to use it to update his GPS IAmNotThatGuy ;) | 06:48 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | Owh! my bad. I should better concentrate in work :P Snicksie carryon =] | 06:49 |
| rainstake | Yes, what snicklsie said. | 06:49 |
| rainstake | The program won't run due to the error message I posted. Let me know if you want me to paste it again. | 06:50 |
| rainstake | Thank you for all the attention, by the way. Waiting for your reply. | 06:50 |
| Unit193 | How are you trying to run it? | 06:50 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | rainstake: Can you copy your application to the home folder? and there are some settings update to be done in Wine. You have to add a drive in settings. | 06:51 |
| rainstake | the program is a exe file I downloaded. | 06:51 |
| rainstake | Okay, can you kindly guide me to what you suggest? I'm so new at this, but am familiar with command line. | 06:52 |
| Unit193 | Right, so do you have a file manager open and you're just clicking it? Try right clicking > Executable Bit | 06:53 |
| Snicksie | long time ago I worked with wine, but shouldn't you open it with wine, Unit193 ? :) | 06:53 |
| Snicksie | rightclick -> open with ... -> wine | 06:53 |
| Unit193 | Snicksie: Yeah, they changed it so it needed the bit checked | 06:54 |
| Snicksie | ah, okay :) | 06:54 |
| Unit193 | But by all means, carry on | 06:54 |
| rainstake | Okay, I put the exe file in the downloads folder from a USB Drive. | 06:54 |
| rainstake | Unit193, I don't have the file manager open, but willdo that,now. | 06:55 |
| Unit193 | I was trying to figure out how exactly you were trying to run it, be it type a command or otherwise | 06:55 |
| rainstake | Unit193, I see. I was trying to dbl click on the file itself, it was located on my USB drive. | 06:56 |
| rainstake | however, I just put in Downloads and then right clicked as you mentioned and tried to open it with WINE | 06:57 |
| rainstake | Unit193: When using Wine, I see an popup that says 'extracting', but then it finishes and all is silent. Nothing seems to open up, elsewise. | 07:01 |
| Unit193 | rainstake: Right, try opening a terminal there and type unzip THEFILEHERE | 07:01 |
| rainstake | Okay, doing so now. | 07:01 |
| rainstake | Here is the result: unzip: cannot find or open THEFILEHERE, THEFILEHERE.zip or THEFILEHERE.ZIP. | 07:02 |
| Unit193 | Well, I wanted you to put the name of the file there... | 07:03 |
| rainstake | Oh. I see. | 07:03 |
| Snicksie | Unit193 meant to say 'unzip /media/9475-A297/GarminMapUpdater_v3.0.5.exe' (where 'THEFILEHERE' is just a dummy text, which you should replace :) ) | 07:03 |
| * Unit193 is clear as mud on a rainy day | 07:04 | |
| rainstake | Unit193: here is the resulting text: unzip: cannot find or open GarminMapUpdater_v3.0.5.exe, GarminMapUpdater_v3.0.5.exe.zip or GarminMapUpdater_v3.0.5.exe.ZIP. | 07:05 |
| rainstake | the file is called GarminMapUpdater... | 07:05 |
| Unit193 | Can you change dir to the location of the file and run unzip GarminMapUpdater_v3.0.5.exe (If that's still the file name) | 07:07 |
| Snicksie | rainstake, as I said, you needed to replace it; that means you can type "unzip file.exe" ; "unzip file.exe.zip" ; "unzip file.exe.ZIP" | 07:07 |
| Unit193 | Snicksie: He moved it to downloads I think he said, feel free to chime in | 07:07 |
| Snicksie | yep, he said he moved it t downloads, so 'cd Downloads' should be correct, if he's in the home directory | 07:08 |
| Unit193 | cd ~/Downloads if he isn't ;) | 07:08 |
| Snicksie | you know about the autocomplete possibility of the commandline, rainstake ? it uses the [tab]-key as a autocomplete... f.e. if you have the file GarminMapUpdater.exe, you can type "Gar", press [tab] and it should autocomplete the last part | 07:09 |
| rainstake | No. | 07:14 |
| rainstake | Sorry, had to change a diaper. | 07:15 |
| rainstake | got it, I'll type the Gar and then tab to autocomplete | 07:15 |
| Unit193 | I hope it's a kids and not your own >_> | 07:16 |
| Unit193 | ;) | 07:16 |
| rainstake | lol | 07:16 |
| rainstake | Okay, Unit193, here is the output:No command 'Gar' found, did you mean: Command 'jar' from package 'openjdk-6-jdk' (main) Command 'jar' from package 'fastjar' (main) Command 'jar' from package 'gcj-4.3' (universe) Command 'jar' from package 'gcj-4.4-jdk' (main) Command 'dar' from package 'dar' (universe) Command 'Grr' from package 'rssreader.app' (universe) Command 'xar' from package 'xar' (universe) Command 'tar' f | 07:16 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | Unit193: xP | 07:17 |
| Unit193 | So you're in downloads, type ls | 07:17 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | rainstake: try using paste.ubuntu.com :) | 07:17 |
| Unit193 | I'm just glad | 07:18 |
| rainstake | IAmNotThatGuy: what should I paste, now? | 07:18 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | the URL | 07:18 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | rainstake: Hit paste in the bottom adn then, copy the URL and share it here | 07:19 |
| rainstake | I mean, I'm on the page | 07:19 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | copy the contents you want to show to us, paste it in the text box, Hit paste in the bottom adn then, copy the URL and share it here | 07:19 |
| Unit193 | We are trying to get you to extract that file since it's compressed, but having problems getting there | 07:19 |
| rainstake | Okay, here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/793492/ | 07:20 |
| rainstake | thank you, Unit193, really appreciate all the assistance. | 07:21 |
| Unit193 | Well, can you type ls now? Kinda need the file name to be after unzip.... | 07:22 |
| rainstake | Yes. | 07:22 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | ls | grep *.exe will do | 07:22 |
| rainstake | ls typed. | 07:22 |
| rainstake | okay, typing ls pipe... | 07:23 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | rainstake: If you get only one line result, the paste it here | 07:23 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | or else paste.ubuntu.com | 07:23 |
| rainstake | I get a silent result. | 07:24 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | you are in the downloads folder where you unzipped ? | 07:24 |
| rainstake | I mean, command line accepts ls | grep *.exe | 07:24 |
| rainstake | let me check | 07:24 |
| rainstake | Oh, I cd to Downloads. Sorry, now I have this in red-color: GarminMapUpdater_v3.0.5.exe | 07:25 |
| rainstake | It's ready to be unzipped, right? | 07:26 |
| Unit193 | Yep, just unzip GarminMapUpdater_v3.0.5.exe and a bunch of new files are now all over the place | 07:26 |
| rainstake | Here's the result: http://paste.ubuntu.com/793494/ | 07:27 |
| Unit193 | From what I looked at, and what another said, not looking good for Garmin :/ | 07:34 |
| rainstake | Unit193: Yeah, looking pretty bad. | 07:34 |
| Unit193 | You could try wine GarminMapUpdater_v3.0.5.exe and then check for anyfiles it may have extracted (or already did), but that's about it | 07:34 |
| rainstake | Okay. | 07:35 |
| rainstake | Let me try that. | 07:35 |
| rainstake | Unit193: Here's the result: http://paste.ubuntu.com/793503/ | 07:36 |
| Snicksie | rainstake, it seems your mono should be updated... at this moment mono 2.6 is in the ubuntu repositories, I can help you install the mono 2.8, but it'll take quite some time before it's installed... It needs to be configured first and compiled... it's quite easy though :) | 07:42 |
| Snicksie | here is a script that will guide you through the procedure: http://www.integratedwebsystems.com/2010/10/mono-2-8-install-script-for-ubuntu-fedora/ | 07:42 |
| rainstake | Okay. Can it be done in an hour? | 07:42 |
| rainstake | Okay, I'll go to that Web Site. | 07:42 |
| Snicksie | I guess... open a commandline, make a special folder for your mono (it'll make it easier) and run this commands: | 07:43 |
| Snicksie | http://paste.ubuntu.com/793509/ | 07:44 |
| Snicksie | it'll ask for your password, it needs it for installing some extra things :) | 07:44 |
| rainstake | Snicksie:here is the result: http://paste.ubuntu.com/793515/ | 07:47 |
| Snicksie | hm, seems you got an error in your packages :) | 07:48 |
| Unit193 | Medibuntu, not a big deal for this | 07:49 |
| Snicksie | it has an error Unit193 :) | 07:50 |
| Snicksie | packages.medibuntu.org:http | 07:50 |
| Unit193 | Yeah, can be fixed if you'd like | 07:50 |
| Snicksie | thats not a correct url ;) | 07:50 |
| Unit193 | Really? I thought Choeme changed it to that... | 07:50 |
| rainstake | Unit193:how can I fix? | 07:53 |
| rainstake | lol | 07:54 |
| Unit193 | You could pastebin the file /etc/apt/sources.list | 07:54 |
| hobgoblin | no | 07:54 |
| Unit193 | ^^ | 07:54 |
| hobgoblin | /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list | 07:55 |
| hobgoblin | assuming it is there | 07:55 |
| Unit193 | Ah, they have their own, that's nice (Did they change that?) | 07:55 |
| hobgoblin | most 'other' lists go to sources.list.d now | 07:56 |
| rainstake | hobgoblin: I'm in cd Downloads, should I go to my home directory/ | 07:56 |
| hobgoblin | rainstake: cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list then paste it to pastebin | 07:56 |
| rainstake | Okay. | 07:57 |

| philipballew | How would i disable network-manager from running? is there a better way then un checking enable networking? | 21:36 |
| bioterror | philipballew, why you want to disable it? | 21:50 |
| philipballew | bioterror, to run aircrack | 21:50 |
| bioterror | that's samrted way to disable it | 21:51 |
| bioterror | smartest | 21:51 |
| bioterror | anotherway would be stop the service as temporary solution | 21:51 |
| bioterror | but dont do anything illegal! | 21:51 |
| philipballew | i think unchecking doesnt fully disable it bioterror ? and dont worry, i wouldnt think of it | 21:54 |
| bioterror | no it does not | 21:54 |
| bioterror | until you reboot | 21:54 |
| bioterror | but you can sudo service networkmanager stop | 21:54 |
| philipballew | thats what i figures. thanks | 21:55 |
| philipballew | bioterror, if it returns a message saying network-manager unrecognized service, how can i see all the services running to know what one to kill | 22:02 |
| bioterror | ls /etc/init.d/ | 22:05 |
