| xubuntu10w | and ubuntu software center closes itself after seconds...not sure why | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| melodie | you need to first install the sources.list I gave you | 00:00 |
| melodie | because you don't have a working sources.list file | 00:00 |
| melodie | this is the first point to solve | 00:00 |
| xangua | Install the sources list? | 00:00 |
| xubuntu10w | ok i have the list copied | 00:00 |
| xangua | xubuntu10w: what ubuntu release do you use? | 00:00 |
| xubuntu10w | install to /etc/apt correct? | 00:00 |
| xubuntu10w | 14.04.03 @xangua | 00:01 |
| melodie | http://paste.ubuntu.com/12226373/plain/ | 00:01 |
| melodie | yes | 00:01 |
| melodie | xangua it's ok | 00:01 |
| melodie | xubuntu10w you install it as "sources.list" | 00:01 |
| melodie | don't mess with the syntax, write the word correctly | 00:01 |
| xubuntu10w | ok i will paste the new source list to a new folder in /etc/apt | 00:02 |
| melodie | you need to save it in your home, then from there "sudo cp sources.list /etc/apt" | 00:02 |
| melodie | you can't do it directly | 00:02 |
| melodie | because of rights and permissions | 00:02 |
| melodie | you don't paste it into a new folder in /etc/apt either: | 00:02 |
| xubuntu10w | ok sorry | 00:03 |
| melodie | you copy it directly under /etc/apt | 00:03 |
| melodie | else it would not work | 00:03 |
| melodie | don't appologize, just focus and do it carefully | 00:03 |
| melodie | xubuntu10w ping me when you are ready | 00:05 |
| xubuntu10w | ok one second | 00:06 |
| xubuntu10w | will not let me add to /etc/apt | 00:08 |
| xubuntu10w | should i delete old sources/list file? | 00:08 |
| melodie | well print it and hang it on your wall :D | 00:09 |
| xubuntu10w | lol please | 00:09 |
| xubuntu10w | haha | 00:09 |
| melodie | so you pay attention to your file system ;) | 00:09 |
| xubuntu10w | i am n00b ik | 00:09 |
| xubuntu10w | me sorry, i love ubuntu | 00:09 |
| xubuntu10w | srs how can i transport file to /etc/apt | 00:09 |
| melodie | if you have copied "sources.list" correctly to /etc/apt the other one no longer exists | 00:10 |
| melodie | or it may exist as "sources.list.bak" or so | 00:10 |
| melodie | which is of no importance | 00:10 |
| melodie | to do that you : | 00:10 |
| melodie | "sudo cp sources.list /etc/apt" | 00:10 |
| melodie | without the quotes | 00:10 |
| melodie | cp means copy (and the command is cp) | 00:11 |
| melodie | where have you saved it? in your home, or on the desktop ? | 00:11 |
| xubuntu10w | desktop | 00:11 |
| xubuntu10w | i entered that command | 00:12 |
| xubuntu10w | now how do i paste? | 00:12 |
| melodie | wait | 00:12 |
| melodie | if it's on the desktop you open the console on the desktop | 00:12 |
| melodie | where did you enter the command? | 00:13 |
| xubuntu10w | on terminal | 00:13 |
| melodie | in a console, right? | 00:13 |
| melodie | ok | 00:13 |
| melodie | did you open that terminal from within the desktop? | 00:13 |
| melodie | I mean on the desktop: did a right-click and opened the terminal? | 00:13 |
| xubuntu10w | i believe so..will redo that | 00:14 |
| xubuntu10w | understandable | 00:14 |
| xubuntu10w | did that. | 00:14 |
| melodie | Xfce does provide a launcher for the terminal on the desktop, unlike other desktop environments. | 00:14 |
| melodie | now check the content of /etc/apt/sources.list | 00:15 |
| melodie | just do: | 00:15 |
| melodie | as simple user in the console: | 00:15 |
| melodie | cat /etc/apt/sources.list | 00:15 |
| melodie | this will display the content in the console | 00:15 |
| melodie | console/terminal | 00:15 |
| xubuntu10w | ok | 00:15 |
| xubuntu10w | i recieved | 00:15 |
| melodie | do you have your 3 lines? | 00:15 |
| xubuntu10w | xubuntu@xubuntu:~/Desktop$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty main restricted universe multiverse deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security main restricted universe multiverse deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates main restricted universe multiverse | 00:15 |
| melodie | ok ok | 00:16 |
| xubuntu10w | sorry that looks sloppy.. | 00:16 |
| melodie | well we don't paste here | 00:16 |
| melodie | this is why we use pastebinit | 00:16 |
| xubuntu10w | i apologize | 00:16 |
| melodie | now you start Ubuntu Software Center | 00:16 |
| melodie | does that work? | 00:16 |
| xubuntu10w | let ,e check | 00:17 |
| melodie | if that works, use it to install Synaptic | 00:18 |
| melodie | you will love it instantly | 00:18 |
| melodie | xubuntu10w ok, I'm out. just do "sudo apt-get update" in console if needed, then install Synaptic | 00:19 |
| xubuntu10w | ok thank you | 00:20 |
| melodie | in case of trouble, do "sudo apt-get -f install" | 00:20 |
| melodie | welcome | 00:20 |

| Slumlord_ | hello | 20:05 |
| Slumlord_ | my sound is broken in xubuntu | 20:05 |
| Slumlord_ | i don't recall doing anything to break it | 20:05 |
| Slumlord_ | any ideas how to fix it | 20:06 |
| Slumlord_ | just sound through the tv | 20:06 |
| Slumlord_ | via hdmi | 20:06 |
| Slumlord_ | nothing special | 20:07 |
| xangua | there you go, that's special | 20:08 |
| xangua | did you check the sound output is right? Did it worked before? Did you try another HDMI cable? what Ubuntu release? is this an ATI card? | 20:09 |
| Slumlord_ | works on other tv | 20:10 |
| Slumlord_ | some setting must have changed | 20:10 |
| Slumlord_ | ok got it | 20:12 |
| Slumlord_ | something has to be playing for the setting to display | 20:12 |
| Slumlord_ | then you change it as it's playing | 20:13 |
| Slumlord_ | i think maybe the cat pressed something on the keyboard | 20:14 |
| Slumlord_ | as he dances on the keyboard at times | 20:14 |
| Meerkat | Slumlord_, does yours stare you in the eyes and then stomp one paw on the keyboard hoping to break something? | 20:19 |
| knome | cat issues at #xubuntu-offtopic | 20:21 |
| Meerkat | knome, depends, I guess | 20:22 |
| knome | no, it doesn't depend, cat issues are to be directed at #xubuntu-offtopic | 20:22 |
| Slumlord_ | lol | 20:24 |
| Slumlord_ | whole body on keyboard and pounces off | 20:24 |
