Q: Google Earth stereoscopic 3D browsing

One of the things I like very much in Google Earth is Flight Simulator. It would be great if one could use a red-cyan glasses for 3D effect using stereoscopic (anaglyph) rendering. On Windows there are a few solutions - is there something similar for Ubuntu?

Opinions?

FEichinger

@NathanOsman Nice!

@Seth Hmmmm ... It's obvious that a lot of people want something like that. And, apparently there are some solutions, just need to find/make one that works for Ubuntu. I'd reopen and bounty it, in fact.

It's definitely not a "TL because too old" candidate, imo.

Seth

01:14

@FEichinger Are you going to bounty it? :P

FEichinger

@Seth Sure.

Seth

@MarcoCeppi @jrg around?

Q: Where does ttar.gz have to be located at installation?

I want to install boot-repair_3.193.7.orig.tar.gz to repair my computer as it doesn't boot (only get the "grub rescue" prompt). Now booted on a live USB Ubuntu 11.10. Wanted to follow the below steps (found in this post) tar -zxvf aircrack-ng-1.1.tar.gz. cd aircrack-ng-1.1.tar.gz make make inst...

I think I'm missing something.

FEichinger

100 rep hurt pretty hard when you're not active on the site in months ... Go figure.

Seth

:-/

Better get active :P

FEichinger

@Seth ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ tar -zxvf boot-repair_3.193.7.orig.tar.gz outputs it to wherever the tarball wants it. It doesn't just unpack it to a new folder.

Also, because appropriate:

I don't know what's worse--the fact that after 15 years of using tar I still can't keep the flags straight, or that after 15 years of technological advancement I'm still mucking with tar flags that were 15 years old when I started.

There we go.

Lately, I'm seeing a lot of questions in the review queue which are marked for closure due to being 'too localized', or 'not a real question'. Some of these are marked on the same day they're asked, and some already have answers. If someone is quickly able to answer a question, it seems like...

FEichinger

@AmithKK main(String s), really?

Amith KK

Yeah!

@FEichinger I'll use buffered reader later

this is just a quick revision hack

it was missing a +" " after the string

FEichinger

@AmithKK It's horrible. In so many ways!

Amith KK

@FEichinger That's actually what the book says

I must follow the book

facedesk

vasa1

@JorgeCastro , I will remove that comment but as I remarked mentioned while it seems related to the question. To my mind, there seems to be some sort of confusion about the extent of control the community has over the direction of things.

Amith KK

probably String args[] is better :P

FEichinger

@AmithKK Yes. In many ways.

args[] takes every word as a String, which means you can just loop through args and pick the one with the greatest args[i].length()

Amith KK

Ah but here's the catch

we haven't been thought arrays yet

so I cant use them in the exam

FEichinger

... How does one teach bloody Java without addressing Arrays?

Amith KK

02:05

Ask the bloody syllabus lol

FEichinger

Also: Horrible indentation. And use telling names for variables. And don't ever use l as a variable name. Bad idea. Very bad.

Amith KK

@FEichinger why?

mateo

Amith KK

coding_corgi

@AmithKK I thought there was a function that did that....

Not in String, at least.

02:19

tutorialspoint.com/java/java_string_compareto.htm

What is the point of this funtion -_-

FEichinger

There is StringBuffer.reverse(), but not String.reverse().

@AmithKK You cannot apply normal comparators to Strings.

Nathan Osman

I'm hoping to release the 2buntu Android app by the end of the week.

It's going to be awesome.

Amith KK

@FEichinger No, like what is the use of the value you get

some example program?

FEichinger

@AmithKK 0 for equals. Anything else for not equals.

> The value 0 if the argument is a string lexicographically equal to this string; a value less than 0 if the argument is a string lexicographically greater than this string; and a value greater than 0 if the argument is a string lexicographically less than this string.

Amith KK

How is the "anything else" calculated?

coding_corgi

02:20

@FEichinger Ok, I bought I Pi, I am preparing the SD card, I had Arch Linux ARM on it (that was my first home run), and I was really confused, so I wanted to upload the Rasbian .img file to it, and somehow I got in this big tangle of a mess, so now I have two devices out of 1 8GB sdhc card, and neither of their memory sums = 8GB, then I tried writing the Rasbian .img file to it with ImageWriter, and ImageWriter started, never got at 1%, so I x-ed that out and came here. PLEASE HELP!!!

FEichinger

@AmithKK docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/…

coding_corgi

Sorry about the long explanation...

Amith KK

@coding_corgi Open Disks and try formatting the whole drive

coding_corgi

@AmithKK I think I tried that with disk utility... Let me see if there is an application called Disk...

@AmithKK I don't have an app called Disk... Sorry if I sound stupid...

Amith KK

Which version are you on?

coding_corgi

02:23

I hope this isn't my AVR programmer all over again... I had the worst time with that...

@AmithKK 12.04 LTS

Amith KK

I think it might be disk utility there

coding_corgi

@AmithKK Yup

Amith KK

For the record

coding_corgi

@AmithKK Do I format the drive or the volume

@AmithKK Hey, I am not uby-tarted!

(Ubuntu Retarted)

Amith KK

:P jk

@coding_corgi Drive

I think you messed your partition table up

coding_corgi

02:26

@AmithKK That's what I did, just had a close look... I keep getting an error... I can't seem to format my drive, should I say what the error is? (duh, I should...)

@AmithKK It says the device is busy, should I run: umount /dev/sdb1?

Amith KK

@coding_corgi Try rebooting onece.

mateo

@AmithKK yeah, they did change the name...

coding_corgi

@AmithKK How would rebooting help?

Amith KK

@coding_corgi Usually makes busy devices fix itself :P

FEichinger

@AmithKK pastebin.com/T5YK9aFA

coding_corgi

02:31

@AmithKK what about umount

Amith KK

@coding_corgi not sure

FEichinger

~~As far as I can tell, it checks char by char, stores a total, and returns the total as soon as it decided which one is greater.~~

Amith KK

ooh

FEichinger

Nevermind, not a total.

coding_corgi

@AmithKK So should I give umount a shot then reboot?

FEichinger

02:32

Just the earliest occurance of a difference.

Amith KK

yea

coding_corgi

@FEichinger Just the JRE being stupid, ;P

@AmithKK okay...

FEichinger

@coding_corgi It's Java, that's to be expected.

coding_corgi

@FEichinger Tell me about it, I spent half a year mastering it, and this is what I get?!

FEichinger

Anyway, my keyboard is being a pain.

ArrowDn is entirely dislodged now. which makes coding hard.

coding_corgi

02:36

@FEichinger That sometimes happens with my netbook's keyboard, what I do is I pop out the key, and snap it back it, usually it's a pain to get it back in, and most of the time I break something or get in a pickle, but it's worth it....

FEichinger

@coding_corgi It is broken. Completely. There is only one hinge still connected.

coding_corgi

@AmithKK THANK YOU! YOU SAVED A NIGHT OF FRUSTRATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! umount helped!

Amith KK

@coding_corgi np

coding_corgi

@FEichinger I just bought a 4 dollar keyboard for my Pi, how bout a new keyboard? Or was that one $$$ ?

@AmithKK Thanks again!

Amith KK

:P

FEichinger

02:38

@coding_corgi It's the laptop keyboard. Already ordered the replacement.

Amith KK

Raspberry pi's don't like some cheap keyboards

coding_corgi

@FEichinger good,

Amith KK

I use a tab cover keyboard and It works fine but

FEichinger

For the moment, I'm trying to replace ArrowDn by Insert.

Amith KK

When you hotplug it it reboots the pi

coding_corgi

02:38

@AmithKK Mine worked well with Arch Linux ARM

Amith KK

@coding_corgi try pidora

coding_corgi

@AmithKK Not really a fan of Fedora, just by the sound, I think I will use Rasbian, but Arch Linux ARM or Android looks sweet...

@AmithKK Now ubuntu won't recognize my sd card!

Amith KK

@coding_corgi Does it appear in disk utility?

Usually a format fixes this

coding_corgi

@AmithKK Format disk won't help, should I add a partion? Just rebooted...

Amith KK

@coding_corgi try that

how old is this sd card?

coding_corgi

02:44

@AmithKK not old, very new

Amith KK

O.o

coding_corgi

@AmithKK It worked!!! Thanks again, you prevented a stressful night!!!

Amith KK

ok :P

mateo

@AmithKK yeah, mine reboots when some usb devices are pluged-in

coding_corgi

@mateo That happened to me once...

Amith KK

02:45

Is it some undervoltage thingy?

Because my arduino does that when I accidentally plug in that uses too much voltage

coding_corgi

@AmithKK I get a 5V dc with 1 ampere,

Amith KK

Same here

mateo

@AmithKK probably

coding_corgi

@AmithKK Now ImageWriter still doesn't write to the SD card, it's done it before, it won't even get to 1% !

Amith KK

@coding_corgi YU NO USE dd?

slow, but robust :P

coding_corgi

02:47

@AmithKK I could try the terminal, but that didn't work before, until I tried ImageWriter, my SD didn't work

Amith KK

@coding_corgi pv -tpreb input_file | dd of=output_file

coding_corgi

@AmithKK Uhh.. For what?

Amith KK

DD with a progress bar

see if that works

first erase the sd card

coding_corgi

@AmithKK I just have a .img file, no output file

@AmithKK format?

with FAT?

Amith KK

@coding_corgi sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdd

that will format it properly

coding_corgi

02:49

@AmithKK /dev/zero/ ?

Amith KK

@coding_corgi output=/dev/sd(device_alphabet)

@coding_corgi no, /dev/zero

coding_corgi

@AmithKK what is /dev/zero/

Amith KK

it's a file with infinite 0's in it

coding_corgi

@AmithKK okay...

@AmithKK So maybe I didn't format corretly

FEichinger

Okay, not replacing ArrowDn by Insert

Not enough space, as Insert is taller.

Replacing ArrowR by Insert. Replacing ArrowDn by ArrowR.

coding_corgi

02:56

@FEichinger is that all working out? ;D

@AmithKK Okay, we formatted it too much, it doesn't pop up when I plug it in, is that okay?

?Should I add a partion

FEichinger

@coding_corgi Using the keys feels awkward, but it'll do. New keyboard should arrive ~~tomorrow~~ Saturday or Monday, hopefully.

coding_corgi

@FEichinger hopefully...

FEichinger

I wonder if I should replace ArrowL by Pause, just so it's symmetrical ...

coding_corgi

ha ha ha ha...OCD?

FEichinger

03:11

Not really. My hands wouldn't like the asymmetrical pressure needed to press the buttons.

anorton

@FEichinger dude! I have that too! This sentence is really bothering me right now, because I've used my left hand much more than my right hand to type it.

(Corgi sent me over from the EE room)

FEichinger

@anorton Why, hello there!

anorton

Hello!

FEichinger

@anorton It does get painful over time. Depending on just how much time one spends using the exact same keyboard, obviously.

Right now, I'm not sure if I'll actually replace the keyboard or just the broken keys (of which there are a lot). I like the friction on the keys, due to how used they are.

anorton

@FEichinger I always use the same keyboard, so that doesn't help...

@FEichinger Hmmm... that is a problem.

Gui

03:18

hmmmmmmmmmmmm

Seth

Yes and no..

I never actually installed it. Though I plan on it.

Github made it to commit if anyone is interested.

@jrg Oh and Marco took care of it ;-)

Gui

By the way Game Dev Tycoon is the greatest game to ever find its way to the internet and everyone and their brother should download it!

Seth

Oh?

FEichinger

@Gui Meh. I'm on the fence about it.

Gui

Awee Come on, it is so much fun...

FEichinger

03:33

It is. But there's also the fact that it's more or less a verbatim copy of a mobile game, with some fancy graphics and overly complicated mechanics thrown on top.

Gui

nah much better then lemonade tycoon

FEichinger

I'm talking about this.

Amith KK

How to print this from "COMPUTER"

COM
COMPUT
COMPUTER

FEichinger

@AmithKK substring(i, i+=3)

Amith KK

What if the amout of chars is even?

FEichinger

03:37

COMPUTER is 8 chars.

Amith KK

Yeah

FEichinger

As far as I know, 8 is even.

Amith KK

Yeah but

First it will take substring from 0-3

next from 3-6

then from 6-9

there is no 9

Won't that be an error?

@FEichinger --^

FEichinger

That was not valid code. In fact, it doesn't even work in many langauges because they implement substring differently.

Point is: You just loop through it, catch some error cases (like the missing char)

And that's it.

Gui

@FEichinger oh I didn't know about that game..

Amith KK

03:39

The problem is that we didnt learn try and catch in school

yet

dammit

FEichinger

//>

public void stringpyramid(String s) {
    int i;
    String stored = "";
    while(i += 2 < s.length()) {
        stored += s.substr(i-2, i);
        System.out.println(stored);
        i++;
    }
    System.out.println(s);
}

Should work.

Amith KK

@FEichinger Nope

It gets me a stringindexoutofrange error

FEichinger

That shouldn't happen.

Amith KK

class stringext
    {
    public static void stringpyramid(String s) {
    int i=0;
    String stored = "";
    while(i+2 < s.length()) {
        stored += s.substring(i-2, i);
        System.out.println(stored);
        i++;
    }
    System.out.println(s);
}
}

some modifications done to make sure java does not freak out

FEichinger

if you do i+2 instead of +=, you'll need to change the substring(i-2, i); to substring(i, i+2); and the i++ to i += 3;

Amith KK

03:50

YEAH!

Now to figure out how this works

FEichinger

Best I can do without actually running it. :P

@Seth It's not gonna work.

It won't have bare git experts, as SO is essentially boycotting it, because "It would be on-topic on SO! whine". And GitHub itself is a very narrow topic.

It could just be the dark corners of SO being loud again, but it's definitely a valid concern.

Amith KK

04:12

@FEichinger Explain that program to me please :)

FEichinger

@AmithKK It uses i as the position in the String, and uses stored to save the already processed parts of the String (this could also be done with a substring from 0 to i-1, but that'd need more function calls). It loops through the String in jumps of 3, adds the new 3-character substring to stored and prints the whole stored. Finally, once the next jump would go beyond the end of the String, it prints the entire String - which has the same effect as adding the rest of the ...

... String to stored would.

Seth

@FEichinger I didn't think it would..

There seem to be people are A51 who delight in "This is on-topic here!" Or "there!"

FEichinger

I honestly don't get the whole "ERRYTHIN HAS TO STAY ON SO!" stuff.

Seth

SO is scary!

FEichinger

Yes, it's on-topic there. Yes, there's large overlap. But if a topic is broader than SO, it can very well have its own site.

Seth

04:22

Well g'night.

FEichinger

I have yet to post on SO, because I can not stand the vocal parts of the community there.

No, its still too light. It started happening after the new design.

@Mitch I'll try to answer here but I'm not comfortable with the formatting in chat so if things don't look good, apologies in advance! Are you using Firefox?

Mitch

Yes, I'm using Firefox

vasa1

If you are using Firefox, please see http://meta.askubuntu.com/a/6817/25656 but the code to put into userContent.css would be something like this (assuming you're starting with a blank file):@namespace html url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);

@-moz-document domain(askubuntu.com)
{
code { font-family: monospace !important; color: purple !important; background: #999 !important; }
}

Mitch

06:28

I'll try it, Thanks

vasa1

I've used purple and grey but you can use plain black on white if you choose. If you're happy with a dark font, there's no need for the background part. You'll need to close your browser and restart it after modifying userContent.css. Also, note that the exact part before .default differs from user to user. That's why I put in xxxx.default. Please let me know how things go!

Mitch

Sure will :)

FEichinger

@MarcoCeppi But they're on-topic on SO! Why would we ever want to allow that here?! /sarcasm

Marco Ceppi

@FEichinger Ubuntu questions are on-topic on U&L, we should probably migrate them there /+sarcasm

FEichinger

@MarcoCeppi I know, right? Let's just close the site already. There's no use for us. /++sarcasm

Passiert das gleiche, wenn du es mal im Terminal sudo apt-get install package_name versuchst (package_name=das Programm das du installieren willst)? — joschi 2 hours ago

@NathanOsman Wouldn't you receive better answers in AndroidSE?

jokerdino

AndroidSE is not for development.

Lucio

@jokerdino Just for users using that?

that is useless..

jokerdino

why? no.

Lucio

@jokerdino no it is not a just users site?

jokerdino

17:35

it is not useless.

askubuntu.com is most useful for normal users. not software devs

Seth

@NathanOsman Because you're too good for easy ones :P

Can we get this reopened?

Lucio

Seth

:P

jokerdino

i think it was closed because it was a Mac question?

Seth

jokerdino

17:50

i think he wanted to protect it

Seth

Ah. That would make sense.

jokerdino

Lucio

Seth

I was playing around with apt-get install source --compile And I used audacity: sudo apt-get install source --compile audacity However, I am getting a dependency error: dpkg-checkbuilddeps: Unmet build dependencies: autoconf automake debhelper (>= 7.0.50~) libasound2-dev libavcodec-...

I was tired and it's a stupid question.

Lucio

17:58

@Seth Don't worry, I'll find one. I hope..

@Seth I don't understand how did you solved this.

I think that it should be opened, it seems useful IMO.
