| Squall | Hi all. New to Xubuntu and only recently installed it. I'm a complete noob to Linux in general but so far i really like it. Anyways i was wondering if someone could help me with a problem i'm having, I cant seem to get flash to work, i'm using opera too btw. Anyone know what i can do? | 00:19 |
|---|---|---|
| bekks | Squall: Install Google Chrome, not Chromium. Chrome ships with a current implementation of Adobe Flash. | 00:19 |
| Squall | Ok thanks | 00:19 |
| Squall | Any way to get it working with opera? | 00:20 |
| LAURENTIU | enter to web: labs.adobe.com | 00:20 |
| Squall | on the site then what | 00:21 |
| bekks | 11.2 is the latest native Adobe Flash version for Linux. It is heavily outdated. | 00:22 |
| ObrienDave | 11.2.xxxx is the last flash version adobe will release | 00:23 |
| bekks | ObrienDave: Thats wrong ;) 11.2.xxxx is the last native flash version for linux. Adobe still develops Flash for Linux, but being used by the PepperAPI of Google Chrome only. | 00:24 |
| ObrienDave | http://www.zdnet.com/blog/open-source/adobe-abandons-linux/10418 | 00:24 |
| bekks | So get Chrome, and be happy :) | 00:24 |
| bekks | ObrienDave: Please notice the importanzt detail you missed. | 00:24 |
| ObrienDave | i have chrome, i am happy ;P | 00:25 |
| bekks | :P | 00:25 |
| Squall | What about if i want to use opera though? Even if it is outdated, i'm not that bothered cause i don't use it that much anyway | 00:25 |
| LAURENTIU | Try the best browser on the world: AURORA http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-aurora.html | 00:27 |
| Squall | If i have to use chrome then so be it its just that opera is the best browser imo | 00:28 |
| Squall | When i say opera is best i'm talking about opera 12 not opera 115 or later | 00:28 |
| Squall | *15 | 00:29 |
| ruenoak | Hi Squall do you know if you have Flash installed on your system? does it work in Firefox ? | 00:30 |
| Squall | i got rid of firefox but i do have flash installed | 00:31 |
| Squall | opera knows the plugin is there but whenever i go to a page with flas i get a message saying shockwave flash has crashed | 00:32 |
| ruenoak | did you install Opera from there site, it should have detected that you were using Ubuntu and give you the option to in stall using the deb installer | 00:32 |
| ruenoak | oh I see | 00:33 |
| Squall | before i got rid of firefox i had the same problem with it too | 00:33 |
| Squall | yeah i downloaded the deb from their site and then opened it with the ubuntu software centre and installed it | 00:34 |
| David-A | Squall: did you install flash using the one of the packages xubuntu-restricted-extra or flashplugin-installer or similar? | 00:35 |
| Squall | i tried it with the xubuntu restricted extra and the individual one and had the same problem both times | 00:36 |
| Squall | On a seperate note does anyone know if xubuntu is pronounced x-u-buntu or zoo-buntu? | 00:37 |
| David-A | Squall: it depends. what is your native language? in swedish it is ex-ubuntu. in spanish too I would guess, but not sure. | 00:40 |
| Squall | english | 00:40 |
| ruenoak | I've always said X-ubuntu but I have heard allot of people say Zoo as well | 00:40 |
| Squall | ok cool | 00:42 |
| Squall | thanks | 00:42 |
| David-A | Squall: does opera have the special url "about:plugins" too see what plugins it have found? | 00:42 |
| Squall | i'll try one sec | 00:43 |
| GridCube | kzubuntu | 00:43 |
| Squall | yeah it does | 00:44 |
| Squall | it says shockwave flash and where its installed and it says icedtea-web plugin and where thats installed too | 00:45 |
| ruenoak | Just installed Opera seems to find the flash Plugin ok "/usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so" | 00:46 |
| Squall | Yeah it says /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so on mine too | 00:47 |
| David-A | Squall: shockwave flash is flash, isn't it? (icedtea is java) | 00:47 |
| Squall | yeah its flash | 00:47 |
| Squall | Everything looks ok to me but it just doesn't work when i go on youtube or whatever | 00:48 |
| Squall | It did exactly the same thing on firefox too | 00:49 |
| LAURENTIU | Please respond my question: What is minimum resources for xubuntu ( processor, video card memory ) ? ( I now the RAM is 192 MB ). Thanks. | 00:49 |
| bekks | LAURENTIU: http://xubuntu.org/getxubuntu/ | 00:52 |
| bekks | Minimum is 64M for installing using the alternate CD, but for actually running 512M is the minimum. | 00:52 |
| Squall | i'm using a 18ghz AMD Athlon XP 2600+ with a 64MB IGP and it woorks fast for me | 00:53 |
| bekks | As long as you are confident with the performance, there is no minimum for CPU and GPU VRAM. | 00:53 |
| Squall | that should have said 1.8ghz | 00:53 |
| Squall | If i have to use chrome then i will its just damn irritating when i know it should work | 00:56 |
| Squall | When i did a google search it seems that quite a few people were having the same problems with firefox and opera on ask ubuntu | 00:57 |
| Squall | i tried the solutions and it didn't seem to make any difference | 00:58 |
| Squall | g2g guys but thanks for trying to help. Until i find a solution i'll just use chrome for youtube and whatnot and opera for everything else. Thanks again | 01:09 |
| LAURENTIU | I try to install Linux Mint 9, but not suported. I am windows xp installed on my sistem. Support my system OS XUBUNTU ? ( Processor Intel Celeron 533 MHz / 128 KB , RAM 256 MB / 133 MHz, HDD 20 GB, video card memory integrated intel 82810 / 32 MB / 1024 X 768 ) . | 01:16 |
| bekks | LAURENTIU: Your system specs support xubuntu, but you have a pretty slow and low-RAM system. | 01:18 |
| bekks | LAURENTIU: you are better off using lubuntu, maybe. | 01:19 |
| LAURENTIU | Thanks for information and alternative. | 01:20 |
| ruenoak | I second Lubuntu, I have managed to install Lubuntu on a Pentium 3 Machine the install was slow but it runs quite well | 01:21 |
| LAURENTIU | <ruenoak> What is configuration on a Pentium 3 machine ? | 01:22 |
| ruenoak | it's an old Compaq Machine I just check | 01:26 |
| David-A | LAURENTIU: I think 256 MB RAM is too little for a comfortable experience in firefox or chromium. I am not sure but I think the cpu and graphics may be to weak to play videos with higher resolution than dvd (480p or so, I think). | 01:27 |
| ruenoak | P3 700MHz 256MB SDRam Trident CyberBlade Video Card 30GB HDD | 01:29 |
| ruenoak | I had to make a custom xorg,conf for the Video card | 01:29 |
| ruenoak | I use to have Xubuntu 10.04 running on it but newer versions of Xubuntu are a bit to heavy now | 01:31 |
| LAURENTIU | <ruenoak> What is for me ? : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/PreviousReleases OR http://xubuntu.org/getxubuntu/ | 01:37 |
| ruenoak | hmm You might get away with the Graphical installer for Lubuntu but your Ram is quite low. you can use the Lubuntu Alternate_ISO which is better for low ram systems https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Alternate_ISO | 01:44 |
| ruenoak | the Alternate ISO is a bit less user friendly but is great for old systems there are some Instructions here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/AlternateInstall | 01:46 |
| David-A | LAURENTIU: Do you want to keep Windows XP? That is, make a "dual boot" install with both Linux and Windows XP? | 01:47 |
| LAURENTIU | No, I do not want to keep xp. | 01:49 |
| bekks | LAURENTIU: then first get a lubuntu live cd, and see how it's working for you. | 01:50 |
| LAURENTIU | Thanks all. | 01:52 |
| xubuntu343 | hey guys, i have a question. | 04:23 |
| xubuntu343 | i can't login anymore, even though auto-login is enabled. | 04:23 |
| xubuntu343 | i can ssh in, but then X isn't running | 04:24 |
| jaygatsby7 | setup a new user . autologin may be your issue | 04:28 |
| xubuntu343 | nvm, back to reinstalling xubuntu 12.10 | 04:30 |
| jaygatsby7 | these shortened support cycles are kind of a pain | 04:33 |
| jaygatsby7 | 13.10 had a few issues for me that I needed to iron out | 04:34 |
| SonikkuAmerica | And now they're all ironed out and here comes 14.04? | 04:35 |
| SonikkuAmerica | You can hold onto 14.04 for 3 years, you know | 04:35 |
| jaygatsby7 | I thought it was 5 years | 04:36 |
| jaygatsby7 | or does that not incl xfce version | 04:36 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Xubuntu doesn't follow Ubuntu's and Kubuntu's LTS cycles. That was a decision that Pasi Lallinaho (knome), director of the Xubuntu project, made. | 04:37 |
| jaygatsby7 | software just gets dated. 12.04 is solid but I refuse to use it | 04:37 |
| SonikkuAmerica | And then it gets engaged and married. We all go sometime. | 04:37 |
| jaygatsby7 | funny | 04:38 |
| jaygatsby7 | fortunately it's kind of a hobby for me to fix my computer | 04:39 |
| SonikkuAmerica | But everyone meets a Daisy Fay Buchanan in life... right? | 04:39 |
| jaygatsby7 | daisy was bad news | 04:39 |
| SonikkuAmerica | To be sure. | 04:39 |
| SonikkuAmerica | But for me it's not that much of a pain; I don't hold on to an interim release, like some dol | 04:40 |
| SonikkuAmerica | *do. | 04:40 |
| jaygatsby7 | I couldn't get my machine to resume from suspend in 13.10. | 04:41 |
| jaygatsby7 | that's a deal breaker for me. would have loved to just stick with 13.04 | 04:41 |
| jaygatsby7 | got it fixed though | 04:41 |
| SonikkuAmerica | But I must ask, why Xubuntu? | 04:41 |
| jaygatsby7 | xfce is just what I like for now | 04:42 |
| jaygatsby7 | it keeps getting better and I like it | 04:43 |
| SonikkuAmerica | XFCE is a solid choice. I like GNOME better, but it's not a solid flavor of Ubuntu yet. I'm going over to Ubuntu Studio (provided it plays nice with UEFI) | 04:43 |
| jaygatsby7 | I'm using crunchbang on this machine | 04:43 |
| jaygatsby7 | also nice | 04:44 |
| jaygatsby7 | you should try fedora should work with uefi | 04:45 |
| jaygatsby7 | pure gnome | 04:46 |
| SonikkuAmerica | I have already. Nice, but not Ubuntu. <3 Ubuntu. | 04:47 |
| jaygatsby7 | i agree with you | 04:49 |
| === xubuntu is now known as xeddy123 | ||
| xeddy123 | Hi sll | 07:26 |
| xeddy123 | *all | 07:26 |
| xeddy123 | Just trying out xubuntu | 07:26 |
| xeddy123 | For some reason my volume icon isn't working ... its greyed out with two -- across it.. any ideas? | 07:27 |
| well_laid_lawn | !sound | 07:28 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 07:28 |
| xeddy123 | Nothing happens when I click on volume.. | 07:29 |
| xeddy123 | a small grey bar appears on top but it looks like an empty menu | 07:29 |
| xeddy123 | with nothing in it | 07:29 |
| xeddy123 | Note that sound itself works.. its just the icon not working | 07:30 |
| well_laid_lawn | have you tried a right click ? | 07:30 |
| xeddy123 | that just brings up the indicator applet properties | 07:30 |
| xeddy123 | With just the options "Move, Remove, Panel" | 07:31 |
| well_laid_lawn | ok | 07:31 |
| well_laid_lawn | I've no idea why it would be greyed out ... | 07:31 |
| xeddy123 | http://i.imgur.com/J8R5Rgi.png | 07:32 |
| xeddy123 | Is there any other tray icon volume control thingy I can install? | 07:33 |
| ROPA | xeddy123 it's a known problem, the fix is easy. | 07:33 |

| ROPA | y, ur running 13.10 xubuntu, right??? | 07:34 |
| xeddy123 | ya | 07:34 |
| ROPA | it has to do with the icon itself, there are 2 command line entries to make, it installs a proper icon. | 07:35 |
| ROPA | I am not sure if I have notes on this computer though, I am not at home at the moment. | 07:36 |

| xeddy123 | got rid of that silly Apple-like dock though, and moved the panel to the bottom, the way it should be :P | 07:43 |
| ROPA | xeddy123 have url's that are related to this issue.............. | 07:44 |
| xeddy123 | ROPA, dw, found the fix | 07:45 |

| xeddy123 | Oh :( | 07:48 |
| xeddy123 | Why do you say that ROPA ? | 07:48 |
| ROPA | xeddy123 software center causes lock ups.............system errors occur often. | 07:49 |

| dane | hello, is anyone here? I need help in setting up samba so it can read windows 7 WORKgroup shares. | 09:30 |
| elfy | dane: not needed to do so for a long time - but when I did I used the wiki information - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Samba | 09:32 |
| dane | I'll check it out. | 09:33 |
| dane | i'll report back if it works. | 09:33 |
| elfy | dane: ok - better to have a specific issue at that point than a really general one - which should be the case once you've started :) | 09:34 |
| elfy | dane: though you might be ok to just try and connect with gigolo - from the system menu | 09:35 |
| dane | elfy, okay, will try gigolo... | 09:36 |
| elfy | http://www.uvena.de/gigolo/help.html | 09:37 |
| dane | elfy, well it works, but only for users/public files on the 7 machines. | 09:37 |
| elfy | I'm unfortunately not going to be any help with it other than generally pointing in the right direction - sorry | 09:38 |
| dane | elfy, it's okay. for now, i'm trying out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Samba/SambaClientGuide | 09:39 |
| dane | also, i disconnected the share in gigolo *facepalm* | 09:39 |
| dane | wait, it's still connected... ??? | 09:41 |
| dane | elfy, by the way, any chance you know how to solve the "Server's Role (logon server) conflicts with share-level security" error? | 09:43 |
| dane | been googling about it but can't find any straight answers. | 09:44 |
| elfy | nope sorry | 09:44 |
| dane | ah, ok. | 09:44 |
| elfy | but hang about - people come and go in here | 09:44 |
| elfy | ask again a bit later | 09:44 |
| dane | yeah, will do. | 09:44 |
| xubuntu720 | hi guys, i have one question. The folders 'downloads', 'music', etc are not translated into my language. But when i rename them, the folder representing it with a watermark, like music, pictures etc. dissappears, and a blank folder appears. How can i rename the folder, keeping the folder icon like default? | 11:08 |
| xubuntu654 | hi. After installing 13.10 only an admin user can get automount to work when a camera is connected, a desktop user cannot get it to automount. Is there some policy/rule/config file to edit to fix this? I have googled and tested but I cannot get it to work | 12:29 |
| xubuntu654 | as for DVDs it doesn't work for admin user either | 12:30 |
| tiox | Well, from my experience with fedora, might have something to do with a polkit config file I am not sure about automounting DVDs either. Mounting as in, for data transfer right? | 12:30 |
| tiox | Also, sorry for the run-on there, sometimes my fingers tap the keys a bit too lightly. :P | 12:31 |
| xubuntu654 | yes, setting up the computer for my parents so when they connect their cameras a script is run to copy the photos +++ automatically. It worked before, but not now after i reinstalled 13.10 | 12:32 |
| tiox | Here's a tidbit from a forum thread about policykit; | 12:32 |
| tiox | "This is just the same as in regular ubuntu, not xubuntu-specific. Maybe there is a slight difference between xfce and xubuntu sessions during login when you upgraded from previous versions of xubuntu where still hal was used over udev." | 12:32 |
| xubuntu654 | only I get it to respond (they are only a dekstop user as they managed to start 13.10 upgrade en then kilel the power, so admin rights are revoked ;-) ) | 12:33 |
| xubuntu654 | as I understand udisks2 is now used? | 12:33 |
| tiox | udisks2 / udisksctl, yes. | 12:34 |
| tiox | I know nothing about this, sadly. | 12:34 |
| xubuntu654 | but it would be the same on ubuntu? | 12:34 |
| xubuntu654 | i mean not a thunar vol issue | 12:34 |
| tiox | This appears to be an XFCE bug of some sort, as I found a bugzilla post about no automount. Real fast, could you open thunar and give me the version? | 12:36 |
| xubuntu654 | 1.6.3 | 12:38 |
| xubuntu654 | one question | 12:38 |
| tiox | Ah, this but is for 0.8.0, but might still be relevant, I would think they fixed this by now. From what I am reading, Thunar itself uses udev to mount devices, but thunar-volman prefers to use | 12:38 |
| tiox | Whoops, lol | 12:38 |
| xubuntu654 | I went into the user rights on the user account and of the admin account | 12:38 |
| tiox | https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9193 | 12:38 |
| ubottu | bugzilla.xfce.org bug 9193 in General "Automount doesn't work." [Normal,New] | 12:39 |
| tiox | Yeah, what's going on there? | 12:39 |
| xubuntu654 | the admin account has far less rights hooked than user, is that normal? | 12:39 |
| xubuntu654 | I mean use mode, sound unit, etc... are hooked for user, not admin | 12:39 |
| xubuntu654 | like FUSE is for user, not admin | 12:40 |
| xubuntu654 | use mode=usemodem | 12:40 |
| tiox | Interesting. Another thing I know nothing about, but admin should have nearly as much rights as root. | 12:40 |
| tiox | Just for the sake of trying, see if you cannot add a password for root and log in as other/root. | 12:41 |
| tiox | Then, make a ne wacount in root as admin and log into that. | 12:41 |
| tiox | new account* | 12:41 |
| tiox | I don't know what it will do, but it's worth a shot and you can lock it back down later. | 12:41 |
| tiox | If xubuntu is anything like ubuntu, this information should be relevantl https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 12:42 |
| tiox | ; | 12:42 |
| cfhowlett | tiox, xubuntu IS ubuntu with XFCE4 flavoring | 12:42 |
| tiox | Right. I am under the assumption if he made a new admin account as root, he might be able to fix some of the issues he is having by barrowing the account settings or transferring certain necessary files into the new user, then deleting the old account if the new account has certain rights the current user account has. | 12:44 |
| tiox | Or figure out how to make the user an admin and not a regular user, etc. | 12:44 |
| tiox | I may be so very wrong, since I am still a greenhorn on certain sbjects. | 12:44 |
| tiox | subjects* | 12:44 |
| xubuntu654 | yes, I guess making them admin would solve some issues, but I don't want them to be that :-) | 12:45 |
| xubuntu654 | need to log in as the user to test something, brb | 12:45 |
| tiox | xubuntu: Do your parents ever use the terminal and type in stuff like sudo apt-get? | 12:45 |
| tiox | Blah. | 12:45 |
| tiox | xubuntu436: Try installing finch or irssi so you can drop to shell and chat there, instead of having to log out every time. | 12:51 |
| tiox | Anyway, any luck? | 12:53 |
| xubuntu436 | strange thing seems something happend | 12:55 |
| xubuntu436 | wait a bit to test again | 12:55 |
| xubuntu436 | now it works ??? not sure why. I'll reboot to test again. | 12:56 |
| MaximB | what is a good hard disk check health tool for xfce/ubuntu? | 14:37 |
| TheSheep | fsck? | 14:40 |
| TheSheep | !fsck | 14:41 |
| ubottu | fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 14:41 |
| koegs | fsck is for filesystem, smartmontools for the hdd itself https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Smartmontools | 14:41 |
| TheSheep | koegs: actually fsck has an option to check the whole disk and update bad blocks | 14:41 |
| MaximB | TheSheep: but fsck takes ages, I need 5 min tool | 15:00 |
| MaximB | smartmontools won't support usb check | 15:01 |

| Soelen | hey ho, I might need help to rename files via command line! badumtss.ogg.mp3 <- how do I remove the .ogg in the middle for multiple files? | 21:13 |
| TheSheep | Soelen: the easiest way is actually to use the gui renamer that you can get in thunar by selecting multiple files and pressing f2 | 21:15 |
| TheSheep | Soelen: it even shows you the preview of the results | 21:15 |
| Soelen | TheSheep: heh, unfortunately I'm working with ssh | 21:16 |
| TheSheep | then you need to muck around with basename | 21:17 |
| Soelen | TheSheep: alright, will try | 21:18 |
| Slesa | What about rename 's/\.ogg/\.mp3/' *.mp3 (not tested)? | 21:19 |
| Slesa | Found on http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/150 | 21:19 |
| TheSheep | for f in *.ogg.mp3; do mv $f `basename $f '.ogg.mp3'`.mp3; done | 21:20 |
| TheSheep | somethinf like this | 21:20 |
| TheSheep | warning, make a backup | 21:20 |
| TheSheep | also, it wont work if the files have spaces in the names | 21:20 |
| === Guest41346 is now known as ponbiki | ||
| Slesa | Ah, got it. rename 's/\.ogg//' *.mp3 should do | 21:26 |
| Soelen | Slesa: did the trick, thanks buddy! | 21:28 |
| Soelen | TheSheep: you too, thanks a lot! | 21:28 |
| Slesa | Thank you for asking. Had the same problem several times before, but was too lazy to look for it ;) | 21:28 |

| Squall | Hi all | 23:12 |
| Squall | Having a problem and was wondering if anyone can help | 23:12 |
| ObrienDave | !ask | Squall | 23:13 |
| ubottu | Squall: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 23:13 |
| Squall | I just downloaded the deb for google chrome and installed it but when i try to open it nothing is happening. The processes are there in the task manager but nothing is appearing. | 23:14 |
| Squall | @ubotto ok no worries | 23:15 |
| ObrienDave | lol ubouut is an info bot :) | 23:16 |
| ObrienDave | *ubottu | 23:16 |
| ObrienDave | anyway, where did you get the .deb from? how did you install? | 23:16 |
| Slesa | (and why) | 23:19 |
| Squall | lol not used to xchat. i got the deb from the google website and i've tried installing it both with the ubuntu software manager (it installed but wouldn't load) then removed it and purged it and then tried again with GDebi Package Installer (again it installed but won't load). I've tried rebooting too but to no avail. | 23:20 |
| ObrienDave | try Software center. if not there, go here: http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppa/google_chrome | 23:21 |
| Squall | @slesa i mainly use opera as my default browser. I'm only installing chrome for youtube and stuff cause i can't get flash to work with opera | 23:21 |
| Squall | The only one i can find in software centre is chromium browser not google chrome | 23:22 |
| ObrienDave | ok, you need to enable the ppa from the link. follow the instructions | 23:23 |
| Squall | Do i need to remove google chrome again before i do that? | 23:24 |
| Slesa | Squall: Yeah, ok. I use chromium instead, you know. | 23:24 |
| ObrienDave | umm, maybe, maybe not. enable the ppa and we'll go from there | 23:25 |
| Squall | @ObrienDave Ok cool. @Slesa Does that have the preinstalled flash too? | 23:26 |
| Slesa | Squall: I have no idea, I do not use Flash and do not visit pages with flash on it | 23:27 |
| Squall | @Slesa Not even youtube? | 23:27 |
| Slesa | Squall: Youtube works fine for me | 23:27 |
| Squall | @Slesa That might do the job instead for me then cause youtube uses flash for the videos | 23:28 |
| ObrienDave | Squall, that would be a clue that chromium has flash support | 23:28 |
| ObrienDave | oops, sorry, you saw that. my bad ;P | 23:29 |
| Squall | @ObrienDave I've setup the key and the repository. | 23:29 |
| ObrienDave | ok, sudo apt-get update | 23:30 |
| ObrienDave | in terminal | 23:30 |
| Squall | Done that and got this at the end: W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable/main i386 Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/dl.google.com_linux_chrome_deb_dists_stable_main_binary-i386_Packages) | 23:31 |

| ObrienDave | k | 23:31 |
| ObrienDave | you're going to have to disable/delete one of the google repository entries | 23:33 |
| ObrienDave | anyway, do sudo apt-get install google-chrome-stable | 23:41 |
| Squall | back now. sorry about that i got a phone call | 23:49 |
| ObrienDave | not a problem | 23:50 |
| Squall | how do i delete one of the google repository entries? | 23:50 |
| ObrienDave | under software sources, you will find your repo list | 23:50 |
| ObrienDave | software & updates | 23:51 |
| ObrienDave | sorry | 23:51 |
| ObrienDave | other software tab | 23:52 |
| Squall | Ok i removed the duplicate. Now i need to do the sudo apt-get install google-chrome-stable | 23:54 |
| Squall | It said google-chrome-stable is already the newest version | 23:56 |
| ObrienDave | ok, sudo apt-get purge google-chrome-stable | 23:56 |
| ObrienDave | sudo apt-get autoclean | 23:57 |
| ObrienDave | sudo apt-get autoremove | 23:57 |
| ObrienDave | wait | 23:57 |
| ObrienDave | dang. that will delete the .deb | 23:58 |
| Squall | so far i've only done the purge | 23:58 |
| ObrienDave | good | 23:58 |
| ObrienDave | sorry | 23:58 |
| Squall | no worries | 23:58 |
