| grezer34 | I have tryed sudo dpkg --clear-avail && sudo apt-get update | 03:21 |
| grezer34 | but that did not do anything | 03:21 |
| grezer34 | and sudo dpkg --configure -a | 03:22 |

| grezer34 | crap that means I have to use VI DAMM | 03:24 |
| grezer34 | sorry | 03:25 |
| kgoetz | why? just use nano | 03:25 |
| kgoetz | or 'head' | 03:25 |
| grezer34 | there is nothing in the file all it says is #padding over and over | 03:26 |
| kgoetz | i dont have anything in that directory at all | 03:27 |
| grezer34 | ok, so I should remove all the ... Junk and | 03:28 |
| kgoetz | try moving the file into your home, and see if that fixes it | 03:28 |
| kgoetz | i dont know whats in the file still, so i dont know what will brewak | 03:28 |

| zzaza | hi all | 14:33 |
| markvandenborre | I have a strange problem here with a thin client server | 14:43 |
| markvandenborre | window borders seem to be gone, so obviously something is wrong with the window manager | 14:43 |
| markvandenborre | I'm running metacity | 14:43 |
| markvandenborre | at least, that's what I _should_ be running | 14:44 |
| markvandenborre | .xsession-erros is complaining about compiz not being found | 14:46 |
| markvandenborre | which is strange, to say the least | 14:46 |
| stgraber | ogra: did you find the time to ping \sh ? | 17:27 |
| laga | ogra: ping | 17:41 |
| stgraber | ogra: I updated : http://www.stgraber.org/download/ubuntu/italc/bug with my last testing results | 19:04 |
| rolando-ve | RichEd: PING | 19:57 |
