| Artemis3 | jack, yes but, windows steam. | 02:04 |
| jack | windows steam? | 02:04 |
| Artemis3 | wine steam.exe etc. | 02:04 |
| Artemis3 | im actually playing a game in wine that is also in steam, but don't bother launching it from steam because of that xD | 02:05 |
| Artemis3 | tho i never tried messing with the launch command | 02:05 |
| Artemis3 | ah well | 02:06 |
| jack | do online features still work? | 02:06 |
| jack | i have never used wine before | 02:06 |
| Artemis3 | wine depends on game | 02:07 |
| Artemis3 | which game it is? | 02:07 |
| jack | serious sam classic one and two | 02:08 |
| jack | there kind of old | 02:08 |
| jack | like 2003 around there | 02:09 |
| Artemis3 | 1 is gold and 2 is platinum, should run fine | 02:11 |
| jack | I looked in the ubuntu software store i dont see some thing just called wine | 02:12 |
| Artemis3 | for wine compatibility check https://appdb.winehq.org/ | 02:12 |
| jack | wine tricks and play on linux? | 02:12 |
| Artemis3 | playonlinux is wine with a frontend for easy use | 02:13 |
| Artemis3 | install that if you want | 02:13 |
| jack | alright so i dont need winetricks? | 02:15 |
| Artemis3 | probably not with playonlinux | 02:15 |
| Artemis3 | i use it because i don't use that frontend | 02:16 |
| Artemis3 | in any case the one bundled in the software center would be too old anyway | 02:16 |
| jack | so dont get the play on Linux from the software center? | 02:17 |
| Artemis3 | jack, try it. | 02:32 |
| jack | I will latter have to download them from steam | 02:32 |
| jack | thanks for your help later* | 02:33 |

| sairam | hi | 09:32 |
| nikunj_ | I am a linux newbie. I want to prepare my linux for coding. What do i do first | 10:25 |
| Akuli | nikunj_, which programming language do you want to write? | 10:30 |
| Akuli | or are you just getting started with this idea of writing your own programs? :) | 10:31 |
| nikunj_ | I'm acquainted with C, C++, SQL and would start with python this semester | 10:31 |
| Akuli | ok | 10:31 |
| Akuli | obviously the first thing to get is an editor | 10:32 |
| nikunj_ | Yea, which one do you suggest? | 10:32 |
| Akuli | you will probably like geany if you like notepad++ | 10:32 |
| Akuli | i would start with that | 10:32 |
| nikunj_ | Geany, ok | 10:32 |
| Akuli | of course, your choice of editor is a very personal thing and geany is definitely not the only right choice :) | 10:33 |
| nikunj_ | Anything to start with Akuli, right | 10:33 |
| nikunj_ | ? | 10:33 |
| Akuli | then you also need python, you already have it installed, just run python3 on the terminal | 10:33 |
| nikunj_ | Ahh, okay | 10:33 |
| nikunj_ | SQL needs a server | 10:33 |
| Akuli | i have no experience with it yet | 10:34 |
| nikunj_ | Okay! | 10:34 |
| nikunj_ | Anything else i should do for the same, Akuli | 10:34 |
| nikunj_ | ? | 10:34 |
| Akuli | now if you're using geany with python you'll first feel like it's kind of weird, but you just need to change some settings and its great https://github.com/Akuli/python-tutorial/blob/master/editor-setup.md | 10:34 |
| nikunj_ | Oh well let me save this link for later purposes | 10:35 |
| Akuli | ok :) | 10:35 |
| Akuli | that's a part of my python tutorial, feel free to read the rest if you like it :) | 10:35 |
| nikunj_ | Thank you so much | 10:36 |
| Akuli | after setting up the editor you should be ready to go :) you can just write a python program in geany and run that with f5 | 10:36 |
| nikunj_ | ok | 10:36 |
| nikunj_ | Thanx for your help | 10:39 |
| Akuli | no problem :) | 10:39 |
| ubuntu-mate | hay | 14:40 |
| ubuntu-mate | hi | 14:40 |
| ubuntu-mate | any body here | 14:40 |
| randall | nope, just the voices in your head and the phantoms in your closet | 14:47 |
| Atman | hello fellas | 17:42 |
| Atman | just installed ubuntu mate | 17:42 |
| Atman | i am one of you now | 17:42 |
| Atman | :D | 17:43 |
| Akuli | hi :) | 17:50 |
| Atman | anyone managed to install spyder3 on ubuntu mate 16.10? | 17:53 |
| Akuli | i don't like full-featured ide's, geany is enough for everything i do | 17:54 |
| Akuli | that said, shouldn't it be just an apt-get install? | 17:55 |
| Akuli | run sudo apt-get install spyder3 on a terminal, and you should have it :) | 17:56 |
| Akuli | Atman, still here? | 18:10 |
| jack-the_ripper | I cant get my turtle beaches to work any one know how to help? | 18:15 |
| Atman | yes | 18:17 |
| Atman | Akuli: yes | 18:17 |
| Akuli | ok, did apt-get work? | 18:17 |
| jack-the_ripper | nvm got it working | 18:17 |
| Atman | no, i tried many different things..the developers on git said it is a current ubuntu issue..so i have to wait | 18:18 |
| Atman | i use gedit to write and a terminal to execute python code..works very fine too | 18:18 |
| Atman | maybe even better than spyder | 18:18 |
| Akuli | yes, it is :) | 18:18 |
| Akuli | running things the terminal way is handy especially when you're writing a command-line interface with e.g. argparse | 18:19 |
| jack-the_ripper | when i go to play the game it does not work? | 18:19 |
| jack-the_ripper | every time i close the sound menu it changes the setting back xD | 18:20 |
| jack-the_ripper | ?? | 18:20 |
| Akuli | are you running it under wine? | 18:21 |
| jack-the_ripper | no | 18:21 |
| Akuli | then i have no idea what's wrong with it :( | 18:21 |
| jack-the_ripper | its a steam game built for linux | 18:21 |
| jack-the_ripper | damn | 18:21 |
| jack-the_ripper | every time i close the sound menu it changes back to my other sound device | 18:22 |
| Akuli | you could ask on #steamlug | 18:22 |
| Akuli | or #ubuntu-steam, but there's only 26 users on that channel | 18:22 |
| jack-the_ripper | the sound works it just stops working when i close the sound menu it changes back | 18:23 |
| jack-the_ripper | to my built in device | 18:23 |
| Atman | what game? | 18:25 |
| Akuli | <jack-the_ripper> I cant get my turtle beaches to work any one know how to help? | 18:26 |
| owner_ | sleepy | 19:46 |
| campy | is there a way to manually update something... like sudo apt-get update this thing specifically ? | 21:42 |
| campy | pretty broad question for the internet so i thought there might be someone on here | 21:44 |
| campy | guessing no one is alive | 21:45 |
| campy | thanks tho | 21:47 |
| Atman | ubuntu 16.10 seems to be pretty crappy | 22:02 |
| Atman | installed it yesterday | 22:02 |
| Atman | spyder3 doesnt work | 22:02 |
| Atman | most games from playonlinux do not work | 22:02 |
| Atman | the 14. and 15. versions mastered these software pretty well | 22:03 |
