| kevinisexploiter | ok ijust gave up and went to soft ware center and did it that way | 21:13 |
| kevinisexploiter | it works now but i still need to know how to find what apps open what files | 21:13 |
| kevinisexploiter | any ideas??? | 21:14 |
| ikonia | you research it | 21:16 |
| ikonia | what file do you want to open ? | 21:16 |
| kevinisexploiter | well i was trying to open unebooten download exe file | 21:18 |
| kevinisexploiter | instead of going threw software center | 21:18 |
| ikonia | ok well, thats an executable that you need to run, not open | 21:19 |
| ikonia | but you should have no need to download it, you should use the packaged version out of software center | 21:19 |
| kevinisexploiter | what app would i use to run it if i did it that way?? | 21:20 |
| ikonia | you don't need to | 21:20 |
| ikonia | you should use the version from software center | 21:20 |
| kevinisexploiter | i am | 21:20 |
| ikonia | great, then there is no problem | 21:20 |
| kevinisexploiter | so basically i got the wrong download cause it should have been formatted with a app to run unebooten with right ??is that why i had to go to software center ? | 21:21 |
| kevinisexploiter | i am a windows guy and usually a download can be ran after u down load | 21:22 |
| ikonia | it doesn't work that way in linux | 21:22 |
| kevinisexploiter | ive never been able to do that unless it is done by software center | 21:22 |
| ikonia | https://help.ubuntu.com - a good guide for a basic introduction to ubuntu | 21:22 |
| kevinisexploiter | well how does it work | 21:22 |
| kevinisexploiter | cause i cant always use software center | 21:23 |
| ikonia | have a read of the link | 21:23 |
| ikonia | you should be able to use software center for pretty much any software | 21:23 |
| kevinisexploiter | im just too much a windows guy trying to use ubuntu i guess | 21:24 |
| kevinisexploiter | ive got so much to learn about ubuntu | 21:24 |
| ikonia | read the link I gave you | 21:24 |
| ikonia | it will act as a good basic overview / guide | 21:24 |
| kevinisexploiter | ok | 21:25 |
