    Just getting started like you are. Your best bet is use Synaptic Package Manager. In Bea its under system administration. When you get it up click search and type dvdrip. The app is in the repository and synaptic will install it for you.

    Ahhh.. I see.. You will find doing it from binary it is going to have dependancy on transcode which is also going to have dependancy on 3 or 4 lib's. If you are wanting to get the latest (not meaning the greatest yet) to play with and test and such. Get those in backwards order. Meaning the latest dependency lib's, the the latest transcode, then the latest dvdrip.

    Ok source is normaly tarball.Will be either gz or tgz Or will be bz or tbz.
    SO you are going to want to
    tar –zxvf filename.tar.gz or tgz
    or
    tar jzvf filename.tar.bz or tbz
    then
    ./configure
    then
    make
    then
    (as root) make install

    I think there are guides at newlinuxuser.com

    tar: home/alex/Desktop/aircrack-2.41.tgz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
    tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
    tar: Child returned status 2
    tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

    That command is looking for folders on your desktop with the tarball in it. If it is just on the desktop not in folders. It should look more like tar -zxvf aircrack-2.41.tgz because when you open terminal, or whatever terminal app you use, you are already on your desktop.

    (edit) Sorry I am not to good at explaining what I am trying to say.

    The final step (make install) when you get to it will look more like that because it will be from root.

    alex@alex-desktop:~$ tar -zxvf aircrack-2.41.tgz
    tar: aircrack-2.41.tgz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
    tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
    tar: Child returned status 2
    tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
    alex@alex-desktop:~$

    See now i have the app got it via synaptic. But the problem is i want to know how to compile!!!

    Try with it in your home folder. Thats where I work from not the desktop. With it in my home folder I use,

    tar -zxvf aircrack-2.41.tgz

    and get this.

    +CONTENTS
    +COMMENT
    +DESC
    +DISPLAY
    +MTREE_DIRS
    bin/aircrack
    bin/airdecap
    bin/arpforge
    bin/mergeivs
    bin/pcap2ivs
    share/doc/aircrack/README.html
    share/doc/aircrack/README.txt

    Oh and one more tip. Make a folder for it. Go to the folder, cd folder ,in terminal before starting.

    Whompus, do you realise what you're helping him install ??
    Why would you want to aid someone in installing a WEP KEY CRACKER ??

    Ok, If you have a problem with me installing that then we can use this as an example if it makes you all happier :)

    Lets take good ol alien. Ive got alien_8.65.tar.gz

    Oo also were in the rules does it say we cant TALK about hacking programmes. They do it all in the xbox 360 forums and are allowed.

    Then why don't you report those threads?
    They'll get shut down.
    It's not that i oppose to hacking, it's that i oppose to people that have no business in network security abusing the tools of the trade and getting them banned, their websites closed down, and their makers incarcerated or fined.

    Nah im talking about threads about braking protection on discs on the xbox 360 console. Which is the same thing as braking WEP protection. As long as you don't tell me were i can download the WEP cracker its all kool in the rules.

    No, it's not.
    Discussing hacking tools is an unwritten no no.
    Not to mention there's an ETHICAL difference here, but i'm sure you wouldn't get that.
