| jrib | hi | 03:17 |
| jrib | what do you mean by "tried several sym links"? | 03:17 |
| jmchaffie | hello, thanks for helping me out... | 03:17 |
| jmchaffie | well several sites gave varied symbolic links to try.. I've tried them all, no luck | 03:17 |
| jrib | I see | 03:17 |
| jmchaffie | I've tried java 5 and 6, with the plugin packages.. and still no luck | 03:18 |
| jrib | well, do this: sudo aptitude purge sun-java5-plugin && sudo aptitude install sun-java5-plugin | 03:18 |
| jmchaffie | keeps reporting I have java 1.4.2 | 03:18 |
| jmchaffie | ok just a sec | 03:18 |
| jrib | or do you want 6? | 03:18 |
| jrib | k, just let me know if you chose 5 or 6 after | 03:19 |
| jmchaffie | makes no difference to me.. 5 is fine, most websites and web apps work with 5 | 03:19 |
| jrib | k, doesn't really matter | 03:19 |
| jrib | I just need to know which :) | 03:20 |
| jmchaffie | it just finished reinstalling the plugin | 03:20 |
| jmchaffie | should I try firefox now? | 03:20 |
| jrib | ok | 03:20 |
| jrib | now, close firefox | 03:20 |
| jmchaffie | ok | 03:21 |
| jrib | ok now in a terminal, what does this return: ps -ef | grep firefox | 03:21 |
| jmchaffie | 1000 31633 31343 0 20:22 pts/0 00:00:00 grep firefox | 03:22 |
| jmchaffie | interesting | 03:23 |
| jrib | ok, now start firefox | 03:23 |
| jrib | working? | 03:23 |
| jmchaffie | ok... | 03:23 |
| jmchaffie | when I go test it a suns site... it still tells me I'm running 1.4.2 | 03:24 |
| jmchaffie | I'm running 32-bit feisty if that helps any... | 03:24 |
| jrib | http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml here you mean? | 03:24 |
| jmchaffie | yes | 03:25 |
| jrib | argh, I don't have java installed on this machine, so I'll need you to read some stuff to me, what does this return: update-java-alternatives --help | 03:25 |
| jmchaffie | update-java-alternatives [--jre] [--plugin] [ -t|--test|-v|--verbose] | 03:25 |
| jmchaffie | -l|--list [<jname>] | 03:25 |
| jmchaffie | -s|--set <jname> | 03:25 |
| jmchaffie | -a|--auto | 03:25 |
| jmchaffie | -h|-?|--help | 03:25 |
| jrib | does it says "list" somewhere? | 03:26 |
| jrib | k, now do: update-java-alternatives --list | 03:26 |
| jmchaffie | java-1.5.0-sun 53 /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun | 03:26 |
| jmchaffie | java-6-sun 63 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun | 03:26 |
| jmchaffie | java-gcj 1041 /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj | 03:26 |
| jmchaffie | is there a way to purge the other ones perhaps? | 03:27 |
| jrib | k, now do: sudo update-java-alternatives --set java-6-sun (we'll choose 6) | 03:27 |
| jmchaffie | ok | 03:28 |
| jmchaffie | done | 03:28 |
| jrib | alright, now show me: ls -l /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/ | 03:28 |
| jrib | if it's really long, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and give me a link | 03:28 |
| jmchaffie | ok .. hold on.. not really long, but using pastebin... | 03:29 |
| jmchaffie | ok | 03:30 |
| jmchaffie | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/33200/ | 03:30 |
| jrib | run this command: dpkg -S /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so | 03:31 |
| jmchaffie | it says not found | 03:32 |
| jrib | ok, now run this: sudo rm /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so | 03:33 |
| jmchaffie | ok it took that | 03:33 |
| jrib | now close firefox and start it again | 03:33 |
| jmchaffie | HEY! :) Java version 1.6.0!! Thanks a mint! of course sun wants me to get update 2 but who gives a rip! lol.. Man I really appreciate it. Nothing was working! | 03:35 |
| jmchaffie | so by removing that plugin, it forced it to use the other one we installed? | 03:35 |
| jrib | yeah | 03:36 |
| jrib | firefox uses the first one it finds | 03:36 |
| jmchaffie | That makes sense now. Well like I said, thanks a mint. I really appreciate you taking the time to help me out. | 03:37 |
| jrib | np | 03:38 |
| jmchaffie | I'm gonna go take an online test that needs java... lol take care. | 03:38 |
| jrib | gl | 03:38 |

| Bosambo | Jrib? | 03:22 |
| jrib | hi Bosambo | 03:22 |
| jrib | debian packages from debian.org on ubuntu tend to break your system | 03:22 |
| Bosambo | Ah | 03:22 |
| jrib | did you add the debian repository to your sources.list or install manually? | 03:22 |
| Bosambo | Manually... | 03:22 |
| jrib | how many? | 03:23 |
| Bosambo | 3 | 03:23 |
| Bosambo | libc6 | 03:23 |
| jrib | ah ok, that's not bad then, just revert back to the ubuntu version | 03:23 |
| Bosambo | Oh...sweet | 03:23 |
| === jrib hopes apt-get will cooperate | ||
| jrib | lets do libc6 first then | 03:23 |
| jrib | what does this return atm: apt-cache policy libc6 | 03:24 |
| Bosambo | Installed: 2.6.1-1 | 03:24 |
| Bosambo | Candidate: 2.6.1-1 | 03:24 |
| Bosambo | Version table: | 03:24 |
| Bosambo | *** 2.6.1-1 0 | 03:24 |
| Bosambo | 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status | 03:24 |
| Bosambo | 2.5-0ubuntu14 0 | 03:24 |
| Bosambo | 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com feisty/main Packages | 03:24 |
| Bosambo | 500 http://mirrors.kernel.org feisty/main Packages | 03:24 |
| Bosambo | Oops... | 03:24 |
| jrib | k, to have apt-get install the ubuntu package, just do: sudo apt-get install libc6=2.5-0ubuntu14 | 03:25 |
| Bosambo | Erm...ok it's telling me it will REMOVE a giant list of packages including everything to do with gstreamer, OpenOffice, gnome-terminal, firefox....to name a few | 03:27 |
| jrib | erm | 03:28 |
| jrib | what were the other two packages you installed? | 03:28 |
| Bosambo | I decided to change that to: sudo aptitude install libc6=2.5-0ubuntu14...and its just showing the two packages to DOWNGRADE | 03:29 |
| Bosambo | Not trying to uninstall everything else | 03:29 |
| Bosambo | It wants to downgrade libglib2.0-0 as well | 03:30 |
| Bosambo | the last package I installed was gtk+-2.10.13-dev | 03:31 |
| Bosambo | or something like that | 03:31 |
| jrib | as long as it's downgrading to ubuntu versions that seems fine, you can pastebin the output if you want | 03:32 |
| Bosambo | No output...it seemed to just go fine...cheers...that seems to have done it! | 03:35 |
| jrib | k, yeah stick to ubuntu packages | 03:35 |
| jrib | apt-get build-dep gimp should give you the dependencies you need | 03:35 |
| Bosambo | Will do | 03:35 |
| Bosambo | Thanks a lot man | 03:35 |
