YAKABUD Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 ^Hummm, siguro next time para mas madali, sa Synaptic ka na lang mag-enter ng bagong address lines para hindi mo na kakalikutin yung sources.list mo by hand. I just started using Ubuntu/Linux last Monday and I'm still adjusting with the new environment I was able to install program counterparts of what I am using in Windows and I am satsified with the results I am defenitely buying a bigger hard drive (probably 120GB, 80GB for Linux, 40GB for Windoze) once I received my Ubuntu 7.10 CD's I still can not let go of Windoze as our Office Tools are remotely accessed using WinXP Remote Desktop i got 20 ubuntu cds delivered last week good thing i have a friend in customs so its totally free they are totally free even if you don't have a friend in Customs Quote Link to comment

Samhain13 Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 I just started using Ubuntu/Linux last Monday and I'm still adjusting with the new environment I was able to install program counterparts of what I am using in Windows and I am satsified with the results Oh! That's great. I hope you don't mind some additional advice then, regarding Synaptic and the Sources list. You can manage your sources.list through Settings > Repositories. There's a tab for Third-Party Repositories where you paste the apt line in a field after pressing "Add". To remove those repositories, just uncheck what you'd like to remove; this will comment out the entry in sources.list. But if you want to completely remove an entry, select and press "remove". You need to "reload" when you're done, of course. It's equivalent to "sudo apt-get update" in the terminal. Quote Link to comment

I already installed Automatix2 but will try to learn how to use Synaptic I'm wiping out my Hard Disk Today Installing Ubuntu 7.10 as my primary OS, Windoze XP as my backup for accessing my Office VPN only downloaded already some documentations in using Terminal some commands are somehow similar to DOS Shell's command Quote Link to comment
