CavemanZipper | hey guyss | 02:02 |
---|---|---|
CavemanZipper | good morning! | 02:02 |
CavemanZipper | Woke up, went straight to my terminal :P | 02:02 |
CavemanZipper | And within 20 seconds, needed help again.. | 02:02 |
CavemanZipper | Please check that the $DISPLAY environment variable is properly set. | 02:02 |
CavemanZipper | I get this when using the command line for xfreerdp | 02:02 |
Unit193 | Are you in a TTY? | 02:02 |
CavemanZipper | yeah | 02:03 |
CavemanZipper | xfreerdp --disable-wallpaper -z -u mike -p mypass 10.1.1.50 | 02:03 |
CavemanZipper | I typed this. | 02:03 |
CavemanZipper | I know the variables are probably incorrect, | 02:03 |
CavemanZipper | but the error leads me to believe its something else im missing | 02:03 |
Unit193 | You'll need to change that to be correct, but you also need to be in a terminal emulator as the display will need a UI. | 02:03 |
CavemanZipper | Oh, so a raw CLI like the TTY will have that $display error | 02:04 |
CavemanZipper | Since it has no graphical user interface? | 02:04 |
CavemanZipper | I'll try launching it from Terminal | 02:04 |
Unit193 | Well, you could set it, but it's easy enough just to do it this way. | 02:05 |
Unit193 | DISPLAY=:0 xfreerdp -bleh -blah | 02:05 |
CavemanZipper | hahahaha, is that real? | 02:05 |
CavemanZipper | Do I do that in tty | 02:05 |
CavemanZipper | ?? | 02:05 |
Unit193 | Other than -belh, yep. | 02:05 |
CavemanZipper | IT KEEPS RETURNING AN ERROR | 02:07 |
CavemanZipper | woops, caps. | 02:07 |
CavemanZipper | invalid, failed to parse arguments | 02:07 |
CavemanZipper | missing server name | 02:08 |
CavemanZipper | is this something I should type prior to all command line connections? | 02:08 |
CavemanZipper | OK i managed to connect to your CLI above | 02:10 |
CavemanZipper | it didnt return an error | 02:10 |
CavemanZipper | now it's just a new line | 02:10 |
Unit193 | Yes, it'll come back with unable to connect to 10.1.1.50:3389 Error: protocol security negotiation failure unless you enter the right info. | 02:11 |
CavemanZipper | Alright, if I want to connect to my laptop for example | 02:11 |
CavemanZipper | how do I find out what I need | 02:11 |
CavemanZipper | to replace the variables? | 02:12 |
CavemanZipper | does my laptop need to be configured in any special way? | 02:12 |
Unit193 | You'll need to have an account with it enabled, it's been too long since I've done that in Windows, but it shouldn't be hard. | 02:12 |
Unit193 | Not alal windows versions have it either. | 02:13 |
CavemanZipper | an account? | 02:14 |
Unit193 | Windows login creds. | 02:14 |
CavemanZipper | oh, so the laptop i'm working on would need a password too | 02:15 |
CavemanZipper | at the login page, before I enter the desktop, | 02:15 |
CavemanZipper | are those the creds you speak of? | 02:15 |
CavemanZipper | :) | 02:15 |
CavemanZipper | Btw, how do I know the program I want has an apt-get? | 02:16 |
CavemanZipper | I want to install TeamViewer, and i was wondering if it was possible | 02:16 |
ntwrk_keith | try to get | 02:16 |
ntwrk_keith | sudo apt-get install teamviewer | 02:16 |
CavemanZipper | to just type sudo apt-get install teamviewer | 02:16 |
CavemanZipper | i'm afraid for the sudo :P | 02:16 |
CavemanZipper | are you sure I can do that? | 02:17 |
CavemanZipper | darn, it returned an error | 02:18 |
CavemanZipper | Unabl to locate package teamviewer | 02:18 |
CavemanZipper | well i've downloaded off the website anyway, | 02:18 |
CavemanZipper | how do I launch it from a terminal? | 02:19 |
CavemanZipper | can I launch it from TTY? | 02:19 |
CavemanZipper | or must it have a UI as well? cuz TeamViewer is rather graphics-ed. | 02:19 |
Unit193 | Well, TeamViewer isn't my favorite as they don't have a *native* linux program, but you can use either USC or gdebi to install. | 02:20 |
Unit193 | (Or dpkg -i plus apt-get install -f) | 02:20 |
CavemanZipper | so you'd still recommen xfreerdp, personally? | 02:22 |
CavemanZipper | I like how xfreerdp is looking but i'm stuck at the figuring out variables part | 02:23 |
Unit193 | They are different applications, ssh, vnc, rdp, etc. | 02:23 |
CavemanZipper | and actually I think they do already have a native linux version | 02:23 |
Unit193 | Not last I checked, just packaged wine+windows one. | 02:23 |
ScottyK | I normally run Kubuntu, but I decided to also install Unity. I have thunderbird (email) installed when I run KDE. If I install thunderbird when I log in using Unity, will it access all of my email? | 02:35 |
Unit193 | So you just installed Unity, rather than a dual boot, right? | 02:36 |
ScottyK | Unit- yes. I select which one at the log in screen | 02:36 |
Unit193 | Than it's already installed and configured. | 02:37 |
ScottyK | unity is configred, it access the same /home as I use under KDE | 02:37 |
ScottyK | sorry of this is a blatantly obvious question, been a long day! | 02:38 |
Unit193 | As should tbird. No problem.' | 02:38 |
ScottyK | great! I've been wanting to try out Unity, and i'm pleased that I can still access a lot of my stuff from the KDE side | 02:39 |

yeehi | Help - I need somebody to help me with my proxy - i can't use apt-get update, but I can browse the web | 11:27 |
yeehi | I have installed cntlm and configured it properly, I believe. The port it is listening too is the default, 3128 I think the problem might be that another process is using 3128 but I don't know | 11:27 |
hobgoblin | yeehi: all I can say is did you look at the apt proxy wiki page? | 11:28 |
yeehi | Oh hobgoblin please give me a link to that! | 11:28 |
yeehi | I didn't know you had one - | 11:28 |
yeehi | Oh, sure I looked at the apt proxy wiki page - i spent a lot of time on that | 11:29 |
yeehi | I followed out the suggestions there | 11:29 |
yeehi | The problem, which isn't mentioned on the page, and perhaps it should be, is that I am dealing with an ISA server, a microsoft one, which requires authentication in a format not natively supported by*nix systems | 11:30 |
hobgoblin | http://askubuntu.com/questions/111375/microsoft-proxy-server-not-working-with-cntlm-and-apt-get | 11:32 |
hobgoblin | might help | 11:32 |
hobgoblin | http://askubuntu.com/search?q=apt+proxy | 11:32 |
yeehi | Oh great hobgoblin - thanks for those links let me look at them | 11:33 |
hobgoblin | welcome | 11:33 |
yeehi | Here is my error messasge when i try sudo apt-get update : Unable to connect to 127.0.0.1:5865: I don't know where it got the 5865 port number from! I am sure I didn't set it that way... | 11:34 |
hobgoblin | yeehi: not going to be able to do more than point you at possible sources of help :( | 11:34 |
yeehi | OK thanks hobgoblin - it is leading me onto a new avenue - setting the Auth flags in cntlm conf | 11:35 |
hobgoblin | cool - hope it helps | 11:35 |

jag | hi, when multicore CPUs quote their specs, is the speed usually per core, or totaled? | 19:18 |
escott | jag, per core | 19:21 |
escott | and its usually fully symmetric so all cpus are identical | 19:21 |
jag | escott: thanks a lot | 19:22 |
