[03:19] <grezer34> dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0193' near line 1:
[03:19] <grezer34>  newline in field name `#padding'
[03:20] <kgoetz> that file has an erronous \n
[03:21] <grezer34> ok ... how do you fix it
[03:21] <grezer34> :)
[03:21] <grezer34> I have tryed sudo dpkg --clear-avail && sudo apt-get update
[03:21] <grezer34> but that did not do anything
[03:22] <grezer34> and  sudo dpkg --configure -a
[03:22] <grezer34> I tryed to load a GUI on my server, and that dident work ether
[03:23] <kgoetz> open up the file and remove it :)
[03:23] <grezer34> remove what
[03:23] <grezer34> line 1 ??
[03:23] <kgoetz> grezer34: paste your top 10 lines into pastebin
[03:24] <grezer34> crap that means I have to use VI DAMM
[03:25] <grezer34> sorry
[03:25] <kgoetz> why? just use nano
[03:25] <kgoetz> or 'head'
[03:26] <grezer34> there is nothing in the file all it says is #padding over and over
[03:27] <kgoetz> i dont have anything in that directory at all
[03:28] <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
[03:29] <grezer34> I am not good with vi, that is why I was trying to get a GUI
[03:29] <grezer34> I think I will try the install again :)
[03:29] <grezer34> I think it will be easyer :)
[03:29] <kgoetz> 13:55 < kgoetz> why? just use nano
[03:29] <kgoetz> 13:55 < kgoetz> or 'head'
[03:29] <grezer34> thank goodness I just installed it
[03:29] <grezer34> ??
[03:30] <kgoetz> "you dont need to use vi. ever."
[03:30] <grezer34> is nano like gedit ??
[03:30] <kgoetz> try it.

[08:45] <RichEd> hi
[14:33] <zzaza> hi all
[14:43] <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
[14:44] <markvandenborre> at least, that's what I _should_ be running
[14:46] <markvandenborre> .xsession-erros is complaining about compiz not being found
[14:46] <markvandenborre> which is strange, to say the least
[17:27] <stgraber> ogra: did you find the time to ping \sh ?
[17:41] <laga> ogra: ping
[19:04] <stgraber> ogra: I updated : http://www.stgraber.org/download/ubuntu/italc/bug with my last testing results
[19:57] <rolando-ve> RichEd: PING
