[03:38] So, my problem is, I installed it and logged in. I installed the desktop GUI, bye doing sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, after I updated. When I startx, no taskbar\menu of any type shows up. I am pretty new to linux, I just wanted to get a headstart on it before my networking class gets into it. [03:38] by* [03:44] SilverOrange: why did you put a desktop system onto a server system? [03:45] I am not that familiar with server commands, and I just wanted to try something easy (easier than apache etc) and try to start a minecraft server. Do you have a link for guide to using command line in server? [03:49] I am not comfortable enough with ubuntu to let go of my desktop pacifier ;P [03:52] SilverOrange: you have to decide.. do you want a server system, or a desktop system. [03:52] it is possible to have them combined, but it is messy. [03:53] A server system, most definitly. So, I should uninstall the desktop interface? I am new to linux, how would I run multiple tasks at the same time? Such as, I want to download 2 applications, but when I type sudo apt-get, I have to wait for one to be done before starting another. [04:00] SilverOrange: there is a very good reason that apt-get is one task at a time... think of if you were crazy enough to download two different kernel versions at the same time. The result would be a completely un-usable system. apt-get locks up so that any additional stuff required is not being over-written by another instance running an apt-get that may need the same extra bits. [04:02] oh, ok. One more question, the basic command line interface, is there a way to get out of that? Besides installing a desktop? Maybe a window that displays the time, some system information. [04:03] SilverOrange: head over to https://help.ubuntu.com/12.10/ and download the pdf version of the server guide. [04:03] Thank you for your time and help! [04:04] SilverOrange: on a server, you will spend time in the CLI, if that is new to you, then have a read of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [04:05] It is pretty new to me. The most I have used it is to do basic stuff on windows such as ipconfig, ping, etc. [04:05] Looks like I have some resaerching to do, thanks again. [04:08] SilverOrange: welcome to a whole new world :) Once you have got the basics in your head, you will find it a journey of joy as you learn what makes the computer work :) [04:20] Thanks. Ha, this is just going to be my error asking place as I set things up, if I find out answer before response I'll say so. But, HOW do I kill wget proccess? I typed in wrong address accidently, and it just keeps retrying. [04:28] and another one, root\toor doesn't work for me. What is root login? My account I created seems to not have any permissions, I try to start things and it says it must be executed as user SilverOrange, yet I am logged into it. [04:29] Answered root\toor question... sudo. [05:38] ash, no worries [05:38] wrong window === collinp_ is now known as collinp === zz_Jacky is now known as jackyalcine === jackyalcine is now known as Jacky_ === Jacky_ is now known as zz_Jacky === zz_Jacky is now known as zz_zz_Jacky === zz_zz_Jacky is now known as jackyalcine === jackyalcine is now known as Jacky_ === Jacky_ is now known as zz_zz_Jacky === zz_zz_Jacky is now known as Jacky_ === yofel_ is now known as yofel [14:00] Hello ..
