ok. In this case, it is used like a NOT operator right? I was trying to use "!" as a file separator in my program and the character got expanded automatically.
--print-architecture
Print architecture of packages dpkg installs (for example,
"i386").
--print-foreign-architectures
Print a newline-separated list of the extra architectures dpkg
is configured to allow packages to be installed for.
@Ramesh it will either expand to a history event (in bash at least) or be interpreted as NOT (in various languages). You should always avoid using special characters as file/field separators

Oh, maybe he hasn't earned enough rep on this site?
if someone else upvotes his question, he has enough rep, i think. can someone do that?
Anyone knows what this is about?

@strugee you understand subnet ranges right? If I want to export to the entire subnet of my network (192.168.1.NN), can I specify it as 192.168.0.1/24 or will that only match IPs up to .24?
@slm yes, sounds like he has a handle on what is going on. as long as things work for me, and they pretty much always do, i don't bother looking below the surface.
The simplest method for sharing a directory between two Linux systems is NFS. For this example:
server will refer to the machine that has the Data partition
client will be your wife's machine
I am assuming that Data is mounted at /media/Data
I am assuming that you have the most common network s...
@UzumakiDev it is possible there is a package (or packages) on your system not from debian. run apt-show-versions | less and look for anything out of place.
@slm That means no, I guess. For some reason I've followed a guide on my own system where I first mount the partition on the server, then have this line in fstab:
@slm best part of all this is that I posted that ridiculously comprehensive answer and it turns out, the OP did not want to share over the network but between different accounts on the same computer! ARGH, facepalm
Deleting the A but I'm still curious as to why it won't work here. Still, probably not worth debugging, must be a typo somewhere, the ones I am actually sharing from my server work fine. Thanks for the help :)
@slm don't have SElinux. And I just realized that on the shares it works for, I am simply not specifying any network addresses and I can see them just fine.
whenever I copy a file, my headphones create very annoying beeps at various notes. It doesn't happen with my in built speakers, and it hasn't happened before. I'm on Ubuntu 13.10, how can I stop this happening
@FaheemMitha I just took a quick look at that Steam question... and it looks like there is a huge comment chain... Has anyone tried just using aptitude and going through the options it suggests, maybe it can resolve the mess?

@derobert Right. I suggested he try installing them invidually, but he seems to have dropped off.
also, check for packages from outside debian. they can mess stuff up. there isn't anything in his sources, but maybe he added it manually, or deleted the source.

@derobert huh. ok, that is not definitive. my best guess at this point is he has some things from unstable or maybe third party stuff, and that is messing things up.
either that, or this particular bit of jessie is broken.
like every single one? the first I tried gave me this

@UzumakiDev oh, quick question, is your jessie updated? E.g., if you do apt-get update && apt-get upgrade does it tell you that there are 0 packages to update?

My ATIV book wouldn't wake up because the battery was dead. I had to plug it in, then it'd wake up.
