So I haven't Posted in a few Days.

Sorry I haven't posted in a few days guys. School has really been on my case. On the up side. I passed all of my classes. Thats a pretty good deal.
Also. I learned "Waking the Demon" all the way through. Including the solo. Even though its a easy ass solo. Im a beginner, so don't judge.

XChat on Ubnutu

This tutorial is on installing Xchat on Ubuntu.
What is XChat you might be wondering. if your new. Is an IRC chat medium for Linux, Mac, and Windows.

Key Term

  • IRC: Internet Relay Chat. is a form of real-time Internet text messaging (chat) or synchronous conferencing.
  1. Open up Bash (Terminal)
  2. type in (sudo apt-get install xchat) it should look like this "david@david-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install xchat"
  3. The terminal will then search the repository's for xchat. It will ask you if you want to confirm the changes.
  4. Once is is done installing. Press "Applications" Then goto the internet tab, and find XChat on the list.
  5. Once it pops up there will be 2 windows. Onw with a bunch of text boxes such as "nick name," "server name" etc. etc
  6. Press Connect. Then in the other window. In the text box at the buttom type in "/server irc.wyldryde.org" A window will pop up, asking you to join a channel. click ok.
Breaking down Step 6. so you can understand it.
  • /server: tells the client, what server you want to join
  • irc.wyldryde.org: the name of the server that you want to connect to.

     7. Then type in "/join #blogger 12345"

Breaking down step 7. so you can understand it.
  • /join: tells the server you want to join a server
  • #blogger: the hash is to tell the /join command that this is the channel you want to join. #blogger is my private channel. Come join it any time. #ubuntu is a different channel. Not mine. (Unfortunately)
  • 12345: What ever you type after the channel. The command will read it as the channel password.
Once you have joined the server you will be labeled as "Unidentified9237492" or some random number.
to change your name type in "/nick whatever" this will change your name to what ever you set it as.

To the right of the XChat window you will see a list of users.
Those are who else is in the room.

I hope this has helped you basics know how to reach me at anytime.
Comment and let me know what to teach on the next post.

The next step in Bash

Ok, It is most important to know how and when to upgrade your software
First open up Bash (Terminal)
and type in "sudo apt-get upgrade"
This tells your computer to search for upgrades for the software that is currently installed.
However if you are running Ubuntu Linux or most other flavors of linux. The update manager will run every now and then. (as in interrupted my typing.)
____________________________________________________________

The next think Im going to talk about it WINE.
WINE is a windows emlator for linux
to get wine, open up bash, and type.
"sudo apt-get install wine"
it should look like this "david@david-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install wine"
After it installs, it will add extensions to the menu bar.

To Install .exe file.
1.Right click on the file. click property's, click the Permissions tab, and check the Run as application box.
2. Right click and click run with WINE windows executable file.
3. Go through the install steps.
Once finished, there should be an icon on your desktop that looks like a piece of parchment with code on it. If so, repeat the step 1 on that icon.
The parchment should turn into what ever icon the application has.
Congratz you now have windows programs on Linux,
