02:44.32 | abrotman | sirriffsalot_: did you try `aptitude update;aptitude install vlc' ? |
02:44.58 | sirriffsalot_ | abrotman: well, I try to avoid using terminal since I am very new to Debian.. |
02:45.09 | sirriffsalot_ | And if it does not show in synaptic I better not.. |
02:46.07 | karlpinc | sirriffsalot_: You can use synaptic. But you have to tell it to update now and then, or so it seems. We tend to tell people what to type, and what to know what text appears, because doing anything else in irc is tricksey. |
02:46.42 | sirriffsalot_ | karlpinc: have updated it three times... still no VLC:D Could you make anything out of my pastebin? |
02:46.46 | rob69 | What release of debian would you say is best for a laptop squeeze/weezy/sid? does weezy get regular security updates |
02:46.54 | karlpinc | sirriffsalot_: Also, nobody knows how to write a gui. They constantly change. But if you learn the command line you're good virtually forever so you don't have to waste brain cells re-learning. |
02:47.03 | nevyn | imagebin.org can be made to work debugging gui stuff |
02:47.20 | sirriffsalot_ | karlpinc: I know, but for now I want to keep things as safe as possible:) |
02:47.21 | nevyn | but it is more complicated than just doing commandline stuff. ;) |

02:48.00 | notori0s | Dear #debian: I'm in a net-install, but I need access to a web browser to complete an auth page to connect to the rest of the internet to finish my install. How can I get elinks or the alternative working in a live environment |
02:48.01 | abrotman | rob69: how old is the laptop ? |
02:48.29 | rob69 | 4 or 5 years. inspiron 1525 |
02:48.41 | cantido | rob69: stable should work fine on that then |
02:48.44 | nevyn | notori0s: ooh tricky... |
02:48.45 | abrotman | rob69: squeeze should be a great start |
02:48.45 | rob69 | i was going to use the live-build. those are installable correct? |
02:49.00 | abrotman | yes |
02:49.02 | nevyn | notori0s: is there a installer udeb that contains a browser? |
02:49.10 | rob69 | ok thanks |
02:49.41 | abrotman | notori0s: you don't actually .. finish the install without internet .. the netinst includes w3m IIRC |
02:50.12 | karlpinc | sirriffsalot_: Dunno. Those last 2 sources.list entries could cause you problems. But that's not your current problem. You're probably not pressing the right button, and i don't know synaptic and don't want to waste my time trying to imagine what's on your screen. So perhaps you should try typing commands instead. |

02:51.19 | sirriffsalot_ | Two last ones that is |
02:51.23 | karlpinc | sirriffsalot_: You need to do that as root. |
02:51.31 | notori0s | nevyn: not sure. I was really hoping elinks existed in the live environment |
02:51.33 | sirriffsalot_ | Ok |
02:51.53 | karlpinc | sirriffsalot_: Because they look like random software from the internet, so who knows what they will do to your box. Did you read that wiki page? It explains. |
02:52.22 | sirriffsalot_ | karlpinc: reading now:D |
02:52.52 | notori0s | abrotman: so there's no way for me to get a web browser in the live environment to finish the install? |
02:53.00 | abrotman | notori0s: i have no idea .. and you really don't need it |
02:53.10 | nevyn | notori0s: alt-f3 should be a shell where you can run w3m maybe? |
02:53.15 | karlpinc | sirriffsalot_: But, you should know that the stock debian video players disable some codecs to comply with the law. I don't know what that will mean for your video playing. Perhaps regular dvds will not work. I think it's illegal to play those in "unauthorized" players, like your linux box. |
02:53.38 | karlpinc | sirriffsalot_: Hence the need for the wiki page. |
02:53.54 | sirriffsalot_ | karlpinc: reading;) Thanks for the help so far! |

02:55.10 | karlpinc | sirriffsalot_: If aptitude is not found then you've a very strange debian install. |
02:55.11 | sirriffsalot_ | abrotman: thought so.. |
02:55.18 | notori0s | abrotman: so I can just finish the install fine? |

04:27.48 | somiaj | dreamstudio sounds like an application (not an os) so seem weird if was even bootable much less a hybrid iso. |
04:27.50 | sirriffsalot_ | somiaj: so that command 'moun -o loop dreamstudio_11.10.iso /mnt' will be just like running the thing as if it were a CD? |
04:27.57 | sirriffsalot_ | From boot as it were |
04:28.24 | stew | sirriffsalot_: no, not running, but mounting, just make the files on that iso available in your directory tree |
04:28.53 | stew | and that sould be 'mount' not 'moun' |
04:29.04 | sirriffsalot_ | stew: where exactly would that be? |
04:29.17 | stew | in /mnt |
04:29.29 | stew | by the second argument to that command |
04:29.37 | stew | if i'm understanding your question |
04:29.41 | sirriffsalot_ | stew: so after I put it there, and run that command, what will happen?:d |
04:29.54 | stew | "put it there"? |

04:30.01 | somiaj | sirriffsalot_: dreamstuido looks to be its own custom livedvd/iso use their support. #debian dosen't support stuff like that. |
04:30.02 | sirriffsalot_ | the iso file in /mnt |
04:30.21 | somiaj | stew: seems dreamstudio is some based on ubuntu live system you can install if you like |
04:30.42 | sirriffsalot_ | somiaj: so what you're giving me now is a Debian solution and not compatible with dreamstudio? |
04:31.01 | stew | sirriffsalot_: after you run "mount -o loop /path/to/some/iso /mnt", for example, "ls /mnt" would show you the contents of the iso |
04:31.17 | somiaj | sirriffsalot_: I'm saying dreamstudio is not supported here. Go use their support. |
04:31.17 | stew | sirriffsalot_: what we are saying is that we don't know anything about dreamstudio |
04:31.44 | sirriffsalot_ | Ok |
04:31.48 | somiaj | it appears to be a hybrid iso (from a quick glance at their webpage) so the original cp option would work. Figure it out, or read their documentation. |
04:32.09 | sirriffsalot_ | My easiest solution would be to take a DVD that has something written to it and put a iso on top of it... is there NO way of doing this? |
04:32.36 | stew | sirriffsalot_: there might be, don't expect to then boot from that iso |
04:32.41 | somiaj | sirriffsalot_: there are various cd/dvd burining tools in debian. I use wodim from the command line but I'm sure others can suggest graphical front ends. |
04:33.05 | somiaj | oh wait, no you cannot write on top of a dvd. You need a blank (unless you have a dvdRW) |

05:55.32 | nevyn | right. |

05:56.08 | sirriffsalot_ | Not here... |

05:56.19 | nevyn | anyway they're long gone |
05:56.22 | nevyn | and cp is fine. |
05:56.59 | nevyn | and in the modern world of block elevators and multilevel caches and blah it's probably even faster |
05:57.44 | stew | it acutally does try to figure out an efficient blocksize, whereas dd has a stupid blocksize for most operations and is certainly harder to remember than just "cp from to" |

06:06.30 | xbix | nevyn: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dd_(Unix) |
06:06.42 | stew | yeah, that page is fill of unsubstantiated nonsense |
06:06.58 | stew | really, all these things do is copy files |
06:07.24 | stew | unless you are using some extra arguments to dd like skip,seek,count which limit what it is writing |
06:07.37 | cantido | dd can do translations too.. but most people don't use that stuff.. |
06:07.44 | stew | or one of the arguments to dd which tell it to modify data in the stream which i've actually never heard of someone actually doing |
06:07.45 | nevyn | so backing up the boot sector you probably want dd |

10:28.44 | dpkg | Repeat after me: Sid is NOT AN UPGRADE! Sid is meant for developers and testers, so stay away from it if you're neither. Use <stable> or <testing> instead. See also <sid upgrade test>. |
10:29.21 | Iridos | dpkg, sid upgrade test |
10:29.22 | dpkg | If you can't work out how to upgrade your machine to testing (or unstable), then this is probably a good indication that you (a) don't know enough about Debian to be able to solve the inevitable problems you will face and (b) you don't know how to use google or documentation to answer really easy questions. If either of these apply, you shouldn't be using unstable (or even testing) and we're not going to help you do so. |

11:15.35 | boston8372 | did you try synaptic thingie |
11:15.43 | boston8372 | openjdk |
11:15.44 | unknown_had | nope |
11:15.53 | unknown_had | I tried apt-get and this link. |
11:15.59 | Iridos | unknown_had, you don't install things by downloading a package ... you let apt do the work for you |
11:16.01 | boston8372 | do you have gnome |
11:16.08 | mashed | unknown_had add non-free to your repo paths then search for the sun version |
11:16.26 | Iridos | it would be useful if you started out by giving the exact command you used and the exact error you got... |
11:16.33 | unknown_had | boston8372, yes gnome. |
11:16.48 | Iridos | I would guess... but I already used up most of my psychic powers on the last guy half an hour ago |

14:50.34 | zaerath | I would love to upgrade to squeeze, but I have an issue. |
14:50.36 | mjt | fontconfig-config should be a good reason to keep lenny... |
14:50.52 | zaerath | fontconfig: Depends: fontconfig-config but it is not installable |
14:50.56 | zaerath | libfontconfig1: Depends: fontconfig-config (= 2.6.0-3) but it is not installable |
14:51.05 | zaerath | I can't find fontconfig-config 2.6.0.3 anywhere to dpkg it. |
14:51.16 | zaerath | Since it's replaced by fontconfig. |
14:51.25 | mjt | so why do you thing you need fontcontig? |
14:51.35 | mjt | think |
14:51.49 | zaerath | It tells me that when I distupgrade. |
14:51.54 | babilen | zaerath: So, what have you done so far? What causes this problem? Have you upgraded lenny to the latest version before dist-upgrading? Did you follow the release notes for the upgrade? If yes: At which step are you right now? If not: Why not? |
14:51.56 | zaerath | I can't dist-upgrade... |
14:52.05 | zaerath | Okay, I'll start from the beginning here. |
14:52.10 | babilen | Please do that. |
14:52.32 | zaerath | Lenny should be up to date, I just did an apt-get upgrade today. However, it kept back 94 packages (including security updates for apache). Since this is my home webserver, I want those security updates. |
14:52.39 | zaerath | They're held back because they aren't for lenny. |
14:52.48 | zaerath | So I did the usual - apt-get update, and apt-get dist-upgrade. |
14:52.55 | zaerath | Now I get the error that fontconfig-config is holding me up. |
14:53.30 | zaerath | When I do the apt-get update, however, it yells at me and keeps the old repos because the repos don't exist anymore. |
14:53.46 | babilen | They are held back because they aren't for lenny? What are they for? |
14:53.55 | zaerath | I'm assuming that's why they're held back? |
14:53.57 | zaerath | It doesn't explain. |
14:54.11 | babilen | And you also don't upgrade to squeeze merely by running "apt-get upgrade ; apt-get dist-upgrade" |

15:30.06 | dagerik | why are there so many CDs? |
15:30.25 | somiaj | dagerik: cd1 and the netinstall iso are hybrid images, just 'cp debian.iso /dev/sdX' and it will be on your usb (note sdX is your usb device and it will erase all data on it) |

15:48.06 | grobda24 | Hello. I'm having trouble adding debian testing repository. I just want a few packages from it. Update manager wants to upgrade everything (not just the dependencies for the packages I want) to the latest testing versions. |
15:48.44 | grobda24 | Is there a way to pull packages from testing with their dependencies but without upgrading everything ? |
15:49.00 | stew | grobda24: we'd strongly discourage you from trying to mix binary packages from a released version and a non-released version. use backports instaead: /msg dpkg backports |

17:33.38 | gnugr | dagerik: you can get backports and get iceweasel 10.0.3 |
17:34.08 | somiaj | dagerik: then you will have to get a newer version from mozilla.debian.net (follow the instructions there) |

17:36.12 | zaerath | It most certainly does dagerik. |
17:36.14 | somiaj | gnugr: it does, but it comes from mozilla.debian.net (not from squeeze-backports) |
17:36.18 | jbrks | dagerik, type "about:plugins" in the url.. that'll tell you the active plugins |
17:36.23 | zaerath | It's based on the same code as Firefox, and Firefox has had HTML5 support for a long time. |
17:36.30 | somiaj | ,versions iceweasel |
17:36.31 | judd | Package: iceweasel on i386 -- lenny: 3.0.6-3; lenny-security: 3.0.6-3; lenny-backports: 3.5.16-11~bpo50+1; squeeze: 3.5.16-11; squeeze-proposed-updates: 3.5.16-13; squeeze-security: 3.5.16-13; sid: 10.0.3esr-3; wheezy: 10.0.3esr-3; experimental: 11.0-4 |
17:36.34 | jbrks | dagerik, also of course restart the browser after disabling a plugin to be sure its disabled |
17:36.35 | stew | i mean, there is no browser in the world that supports all of html5. of those that support html5 iceweasel does a relatively decent job, its got enough to support youtube |
17:36.59 | zaerath | Wow, iceweasel's versions make way more sense than Firefox's versions do... |
17:37.13 | somiaj | gnugr: it would have been listed in that list if it was in squeeze-backports -- though this is mostly just the repo you have to add to sources.list, it is from the debian community but not 'offically debian' if that matters. |
17:37.13 | zaerath | Unless Iceweasel is still based off Firefox 3.5 |
17:37.25 | stew | zaerath: they are the same numbers as firefox |
17:37.35 | zaerath | stew: Firefox is @ 11 now. |
17:37.36 | dagerik | wow the html5 video plays perfect, on contrary to gnash. Thanks! |
17:37.51 | gnugr | somiaj:yes, it would |

17:40.07 | zaerath | stew: Yeah, very aware of that. |
17:40.09 | somiaj | sometime after squeeze froze firefox started to release version numbers one after another. |
17:40.24 | zaerath | somiaj: That makes sense. |
17:40.26 | somiaj | which is why the difference in versions looks so bad, mozilla changed their versioning system. |
17:40.31 | zaerath | Gotcha. |
17:40.36 | stew | zaerath: so if you are looking to try to determine what the iceweasel maintainer is currently labelling as stable, it is 10.0 |

23:30.53 | afuentes | FrostofSparta, not sure if thats the location tho |
23:31.25 | engla | xixor: I used this method for a debian testing iso on usb: http://d.goodlad.net/articles/arch_linux_on_mba_42/ that guy has instructions for using os x to write the usb stick.. worked fine with debian too |
