[02:02] hey guyss [02:02] good morning! [02:02] Woke up, went straight to my terminal :P [02:02] And within 20 seconds, needed help again.. [02:02] Please check that the $DISPLAY environment variable is properly set. [02:02] I get this when using the command line for xfreerdp [02:02] Are you in a TTY? [02:03] yeah [02:03] xfreerdp --disable-wallpaper -z -u mike -p mypass 10.1.1.50 [02:03] I typed this. [02:03] I know the variables are probably incorrect, [02:03] but the error leads me to believe its something else im missing [02:03] 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. [02:04] Oh, so a raw CLI like the TTY will have that $display error [02:04] Since it has no graphical user interface? [02:04] I'll try launching it from Terminal [02:05] Well, you could set it, but it's easy enough just to do it this way. [02:05] DISPLAY=:0 xfreerdp -bleh -blah [02:05] hahahaha, is that real? [02:05] Do I do that in tty [02:05] ?? [02:05] Other than -belh, yep. [02:07] IT KEEPS RETURNING AN ERROR [02:07] woops, caps. [02:07] invalid, failed to parse arguments [02:08] missing server name [02:08] is this something I should type prior to all command line connections? [02:10] OK i managed to connect to your CLI above [02:10] it didnt return an error [02:10] now it's just a new line [02:11] 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] Alright, if I want to connect to my laptop for example [02:11] how do I find out what I need [02:12] to replace the variables? [02:12] does my laptop need to be configured in any special way? [02:12] 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. [02:13] Not alal windows versions have it either. [02:14] an account? [02:14] Windows login creds. [02:15] oh, so the laptop i'm working on would need a password too [02:15] at the login page, before I enter the desktop, [02:15] are those the creds you speak of? [02:15] :) [02:16] Btw, how do I know the program I want has an apt-get? [02:16] I want to install TeamViewer, and i was wondering if it was possible [02:16] try to get [02:16] sudo apt-get install teamviewer [02:16] to just type sudo apt-get install teamviewer [02:16] i'm afraid for the sudo :P [02:17] are you sure I can do that? [02:18] darn, it returned an error [02:18] Unabl to locate package teamviewer [02:18] well i've downloaded off the website anyway, [02:19] how do I launch it from a terminal? [02:19] can I launch it from TTY? [02:19] or must it have a UI as well? cuz TeamViewer is rather graphics-ed. [02:20] 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] (Or dpkg -i plus apt-get install -f) [02:22] so you'd still recommen xfreerdp, personally? [02:23] I like how xfreerdp is looking but i'm stuck at the figuring out variables part [02:23] They are different applications, ssh, vnc, rdp, etc. [02:23] and actually I think they do already have a native linux version [02:23] Not last I checked, just packaged wine+windows one. [02:35] 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? [02:36] So you just installed Unity, rather than a dual boot, right? [02:36] Unit- yes. I select which one at the log in screen [02:37] Than it's already installed and configured. [02:37] unity is configred, it access the same /home as I use under KDE [02:38] sorry of this is a blatantly obvious question, been a long day! [02:38] As should tbird. No problem.' [02:39] 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 [03:47] anybody help how to install pidgin plugins with the extension ****.c ? === rastamouse is now known as nothingspecial [07:13] Hi [07:13] i just need to know about Kernel how to make kernel in C [07:15] ? [07:24] ? [07:24] Any one around [11:27] 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] 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 [11:28] yeehi: all I can say is did you look at the apt proxy wiki page? [11:28] Oh hobgoblin please give me a link to that! [11:28] I didn't know you had one - [11:29] Oh, sure I looked at the apt proxy wiki page - i spent a lot of time on that [11:29] I followed out the suggestions there [11:30] 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 [11:32] http://askubuntu.com/questions/111375/microsoft-proxy-server-not-working-with-cntlm-and-apt-get [11:32] might help [11:32] http://askubuntu.com/search?q=apt+proxy [11:33] Oh great hobgoblin - thanks for those links let me look at them [11:33] welcome [11:34] 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] yeehi: not going to be able to do more than point you at possible sources of help :( [11:35] OK thanks hobgoblin - it is leading me onto a new avenue - setting the Auth flags in cntlm conf [11:35] cool - hope it helps === amithkk is now known as amith === amith is now known as amithkk === sattu94 is now known as satyanash [19:18] hi, when multicore CPUs quote their specs, is the speed usually per core, or totaled? [19:21] jag, per core [19:21] and its usually fully symmetric so all cpus are identical [19:22] escott: thanks a lot [21:28] hi [21:28] Howdy.
