[00:01] <fc___> Good idea, now on the search for that flash drive...
[00:01] <fc___> So wait, should I run the iso on ubunutu or redownload it on windows?
[00:04] <stlsaint> fc___: naw just dd it to the usb
[00:05] <fc___> So does it matter if I didn't delete 12.04 on windows yet? Sorry for all the questions
[00:16] <devxdev> is anyone aware the proper way to submit a bug fix on launchpad?
[00:21] <stlsaint> devxdev: code invovled?
[00:21] <devxdev> stlsaint, nope only command line stuff
[00:21] <stlsaint> devxdev: put it on the bug report itself in launchpad

[01:01] <devxdev> stlsaint, i forgot one thing..
[01:02] <devxdev> do you know how to make the output of "make" go to a text file?
[01:02] <devxdev> like maybe $ make >> /maked.txt
[01:02] <ntwrk_keith> whats the diff between #ubuntu-beginners and #ubuntu? the level of questions?
[01:03] <devxdev> not sure myself but i would assume O_O
[01:08] <stlsaint> not not the level
[01:08] <stlsaint> ntwrk_keith: have you been in ubuntu channel?
[01:08] <stlsaint> ntwrk_keith: where you helped there?
[01:08] <devxdev> nevermind i got it: $ make >errors.log 2>&1
[01:10] <stlsaint> ntwrk_keith: no level of questions here. just more quite than #ubuntu
[04:18] <r4y> Can I get soundconverter for windows?
[04:19] <r4y> I mean is this safe to use
[04:23] <wilee-nilee> r4y, look on the web to see if there is a windows version.
[04:24] <r4y> http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/programs/SoundConvertorWIN/
[04:24] <r4y> I am going to scan it
[04:25] <wilee-nilee> I have used it in Ubuntu with no problems, I would test it in windows by backing up the test media then running it to see if it does what you want.
[04:25] <r4y> If it works, then all I want is a tagger
[04:25] <wilee-nilee> just back up a small part for a test
[04:25] <r4y> good idea
[04:25] <r4y> right
[04:25] <r4y> I am used to kid3 for tagging
[04:25] <wilee-nilee> cool.;)
[04:26] <wilee-nilee> I'm not sure what tagging is
[04:26] <wilee-nilee> I have just used it to convert, so I don't know all the functions
[04:27] <r4y> when I use soundconverter with Ubuntu it strips out the first tag so I use easytag to copy the second tag to tag one for multiple files
[04:27] <r4y> That is a bad link I posted
[04:28] <wilee-nilee> Hehe it happens it sounds like you have used it before in a specific way, so I really can't help anymore then to say "worked for me"
[04:28] <r4y> clamAV says PUA.Win32.packer.Msvcpp-1 and CP secure says risktool.w32.pskill.Q
[04:29] <r4y> http://virusscan.jotti.org/en/scanresult/ad2b058125cdfce91665d89423995f5fe9377a63
[04:30] <wilee-nilee> clamav will give false poistives, not sure if that is happening here I would get it from the sound converter site if there is one.
[04:30] <r4y> I also used this website which said there was no problem with the link to soundconverter for windows: http://linkscanner.explabs.com/linkscanner/AVG/default.aspx
[04:30] <r4y> I am looking
[04:32] <wilee-nilee> I would not be getting from other then here, or find another tool. http://soundconverter.org/ or just do this in a linux setup.
[04:33] <r4y> It's a source package.
[04:34] <r4y> I have installed make files before using Ubuntu, but windows I am not sure about
[04:37] <r4y> I realize that I am on the wrong channel for this
[04:38] <r4y> I search there for windows and there is nothing related to installing soundconverter on windows
[04:41] <wilee-nilee> I'm not sure really, I have a windows setup but only for helping windows users on dual boots and writing papers for college classes in word. I started with open source so that is what I use primarily, I do like W7 though.
[05:10] <r4y> I am going to just grab my other hard drive with Ubuntu on it, because my brother is on the other computer
[05:25] <moore_> Hi guys, I want to know, can I use ARM desktop or server version from ubuntu site on BeagleBone
[09:01] <potofcoffee> Hi. I'm on Unity-2D and the Alt+F2 shortcut is not working. Trying to set it in system settings -> keyboard -> shortcuts fails because, there it says "Disabled" and the word "Disabled" is italicized. Any ideas what to do?
[09:55] <dizzylizzy> awe
