unixnad | Hi I use ubuntu 10.04 x64 . Is it good idea to use applications ubuntu software center to install adobe flash player... ? | 02:42 |
unixnad | shall i get x64 support this way? | 02:43 |
holstein | unixnad: you can try it.. i usually suggest trying chrome with its installed flash.. | 02:43 |
holstein | i have 10.04 64bit with the flash from the repos on my production machine | 02:43 |
unixnad | defaulty but i use sync settings in mozilla so its my favorite browser | 02:44 |
unixnad | i mean i wanna use firefox | 02:44 |
holstein | unixnad: sure.. try it and see how it works you you :) | 02:44 |
holstein | if you have troubles, try chrome as a troubleshooting step | 02:44 |
unixnad | i downloaded file from flash player's site to install and couldn't managed :) | 02:44 |
unixnad | I installed from software center but Youtube videos seems starts slowly.. | 02:47 |
holstein | unixnad: maybe you can install chrome as a troubleshooting step.. or a firefox PPA | 02:48 |
unixnad | what is firefox PPA? | 02:50 |
holstein | unixnad: to get the updated version of firefox | 02:50 |
unixnad | ok | 02:51 |
unixnad | do i have to remove firefox then? or http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppas/14 is this link shows complete process | 02:52 |
holstein | unixnad: you update the sources with the PPA, then upgrade FF | 02:53 |
unixnad | ok sorry again how do i update sources ? | 02:54 |
unixnad | (completely noob at all) | 02:54 |
holstein | unixnad: if flash works, i wouldnt bother.. if you say is "starts slow"... flash is just not all that great | 02:55 |
unixnad | :) | 02:55 |
holstein | unixnad: at this linke http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppas/14, you can see some commands... | 02:55 |
unixnad | ok i will do that then.. | 02:55 |
holstein | 3 sudo commands.. thos will upgrade FF | 02:55 |
unixnad | thnx | 02:56 |
holstein | OR, you can try chrome... thats easier for you to "recover" from | 02:56 |
Unit193 | holstein: That's not needed for natty and newer | 02:56 |
holstein | Unit193: 10.04 64bit | 02:56 |
holstein | Unit193: you have a 64bit install? i have 2 now | 02:56 |
Unit193 | ubot2`: info firefox lucid | 02:56 |
ubot2` | Unit193: firefox (source: firefox): safe and easy web browser from Mozilla. In component main, is optional. Version 3.6.12+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.10.04.1 (lucid), package size 11069 kB, installed size 29904 kB | 02:56 |
Unit193 | Wird, I was sure they'd updated it. I do not have any 64bit | 02:57 |
Unit193 | holstein: Wait, do you have a lucid box you can get the version from? | 02:59 |
holstein | Unit193: no running handily :/ | 02:59 |
Unit193 | After checking ubot2` I checked ubottu. | 02:59 |

casb | hello | 08:22 |
casb | just to make sure i am on #ubuntu-beginners righ? | 08:23 |
ashickur-noor | Yap | 08:23 |
ashickur-noor | Just ask Q | 08:23 |
casb | thanx | 08:23 |
casb | ok here goes | 08:23 |
casb | bare with me because i have been using linux for less than a day | 08:24 |
casb | i installed 'tiger' package | 08:24 |
casb | ist some sort of security analysis thing | 08:24 |
casb | (i did it for absolutely no good reason) | 08:25 |
casb | so after running it | 08:25 |
casb | i uninstalled it with the //purge opt | 08:25 |
casb | but i later realized that it came with other packages as well | 08:26 |
casb | pe: jack , chkrootkit, e4, procmail, sendmail, sensible, man-db , sensible mda ... and perhaps a few more | 08:28 |
Unit193 | sudo apt-get autoremove you can also use --purge with that. | 08:28 |
casb | now i sort of imagine that i can go to synaptics pm and un click all/most of these | 08:29 |
casb | well i didnt know about that | 08:29 |
casb | so avtoremova vill also remove al the pckges the app brought allong ? | 08:29 |
casb | (sorry for my spelling) | 08:30 |
Unit193 | Should, yes. | 08:30 |
casb | anyhow the thing is as i am pretty sure about jack and shkrotkit i am not sure about sendmail , procmail .. | 08:30 |
casb | thanks :) will come in handy nex time i install something :) | 08:31 |
geirha | you mean john and chkrootkit :P | 08:31 |
casb | ofcourse | 08:31 |
casb | :) | 08:32 |
casb | (lackofsleep) | 08:32 |
casb | what about all this mail connected stuff ? | 08:32 |
casb | was it there before ? | 08:32 |
casb | i definetively dont think i need it ..? | 08:33 |
casb | but is it like some sort of dependencies like in ms ? | 08:33 |
casb | or can i just look at the dpkg.log and remove all the pckges installed at that time ? | 08:34 |
casb | with tiger .. | 08:34 |
geirha | apt-cache depends tiger shows some packages like that, yes. | 08:35 |
casb | (after i installed i also read that installation is not required, adleast not for what i used it :S..suits me right) | 08:35 |
casb | umm.. dont understand apt-cache , sorrz | 08:36 |
casb | y | 08:36 |
casb | y* | 08:36 |
casb | does the default distro come with snedmail installed ? | 08:38 |
casb | sendmail | 08:38 |
casb | (!) :) | 08:38 |
casb | i really have no idea what to do in this case im pretty sure my computer wount go boom if i just leave it as it is | 08:39 |
casb | but i feel i should do something about it .. | 08:39 |
casb | i now know what apt/cache depends is .. | 08:41 |
casb | :) | 08:42 |
casb | but still have no idea if i can remove sendmail, sensible mda, sendmail bin/cf/base , procmail, m4 | 08:45 |
casb | is there a way to see if thise packages ware installed prior to the tiger install ? | 08:45 |
casb | come on geirha give me something to go on here ..i have googled on it | 08:47 |
Unit193 | Did you try sudo apt-get autoremove ? | 08:52 |
casb | can it be done after i allready did it with the other command ? | 08:53 |
casb | trzing | 08:53 |
casb | trying | 08:53 |
casb | :) | 08:55 |
casb | thank You muchas | 08:55 |
casb | Package tiger is not installed, so not removed | 08:55 |
casb | The following packages will be REMOVED: | 08:55 |
casb | chkrootkit john john-data sendmail sensible-mda | 08:55 |
casb | i did not know it can be done for the past | 08:56 |

lukjad007 | Hey guys. I tried up date my system to 11.04 and got the error: error: symbol not found: 'grub_env_export' ubuntu | 21:00 |
lukjad007 | I figured out it's a grub issue | 21:00 |
lukjad007 | I'm currently in the Live CD | 21:00 |
lukjad007 | Would creating a new partition table fix grub? | 21:01 |
lukjad007 | bodhizazen: ^ | 21:03 |
