s0m3nak3dguydespite following multiple tutorials for several weeks, I have yet to get my rtl8187 up and running.  Anyone available to help me out?20:32
tlwsmithI'm a little new to Ubuntu, so I might be doing this wrong, but here's my problem: I just installed Ubuntu 11.04 onto my mac using the Parallels virtual machine application.  I'm trying to add a few pieces of software from the Ubuntu Software Center (Gimp, Adobe Flash, and Mozilla Thunderbird), but every time I try to download these pieces of software I get an error that says "Failed to download package files - check your Internet connection." 22:01
MitchxMake sure that your vm settings are set to use NAT22:02
MitchxI'm not too familiar with Parallels but I use VMware and that's the option I normally go with.^22:03
tlwsmithWhat is NAT and how would I change to it?22:04
MitchxIn VM settings. Also, check out this post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1698386        - it seems to reference the exact issue you're having22:05
tlwsmithThanks!  I'm gonna try switching to NAT and doing what this threat says22:07
MitchxHappy to help. :)22:08
Unit193Not sure how USC handles it, but in synaptic you have to "Reload packages" and terminal you have  sudo apt-get update  to get current ones.22:09
tlwsmithI did what the forum said, under the edit menu I selected software sources then picked another source.  Completely fixed the problem.  Thanks again guys!22:11
MitchxSo I'm setting up a LAMP stack and trying to install PHP (apt-get install php5-gd), but /var/lib/dpkg/lock is being used. How can I kill the process using it?22:38
MitchxWhen I try to use sudo lsof | grep /var/lib/dpkg/lock     i receive    apt-get  806   root   4uW    REG   8,1 0 26233722:45
