Hydrozii | why cant it access jarfile? | 00:26 |
FusionX | cd to downloads direectory and minecraft.jar | 00:26 |
FusionX | -_-; | 00:26 |
FusionX | java -jar minecraft.jar | 00:26 |
Hydrozii | java -jar ~/Downloads/minecraft.jar | 00:27 |
Hydrozii | oops | 00:27 |

Hydrozii | Unable to access jarfile minecraft.jar | 00:27 |
FusionX | cd to downloads directory and java -jar minecraft.jar | 00:27 |
Hydrozii | i did and thats the output | 00:27 |
FusionX | see pm | 00:28 |
Hydrozii | so i got minecraft running thanks to FusionX | 00:40 |
Hydrozii | my whole problem was that i didn't capitalize Minecraft.jar | 00:41 |
Hydrozii | hey guys... | 00:45 |
Hydrozii | what folder are the icons in? | 00:45 |
Hydrozii | ahh nvrmnd | 00:46 |
jinxzs | how to access file shared by windows? | 01:53 |
Hydrozii | okay so i just downloaded a patch for fallout 3..... Fallout3_1.7_English_US.exe | 02:47 |
Hydrozii | and when i try to run it through wine i get... | 02:47 |
Hydrozii | The file '/home/..../wine/dosdevices/c:/Fallout3_1.7_English_US.exe' is not marked as executable. If this was downloaded or copied form an untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run. For more details, read about the executable bit. | 02:47 |
Hydrozii | so what should i do? | 02:48 |
Hydrozii | also another file that i downloaded won't extract... and the error says... No suitable archive manager found. | 03:07 |

Aemaeth | I did the lastest update to linux-image-2.6.32-25-generic and then I can no longer get to xubuntu, it loads up a grub gnu bootloader shell thing, I don't know what to do at this point, all i did was update :( | 07:27 |
=== lsemple is now known as Anom01y | ||
TheSheep | Aemaeth: any messages before loading the shell? | 08:04 |
Aemaeth | no :( | 08:11 |
Aemaeth | http://paste.ubuntu.com/503732/ this is what i see, i just rebooted after doing the livecd grub fix and same screen | 08:12 |
Aemaeth | my solutions looks like is going to be "Never update" and i'm slowly accepting that fact. but this seems to be the only machine having this problem :( | 08:14 |
Aemaeth | maybe when they update the live cd/install cd to the .25 generic pae, it will install like that (i hope) but for now i think i should cut my losses and stick with .21 | 08:16 |
Aemaeth | seemed to have a problem installing grub to /dev/sda if that helps any, had to install to /dev/sda1, BUT the original install did not have this problem, faulty memory maybe? | 08:18 |
Aemaeth | onto my 3rd install round! wish me luck? | 08:37 |
Aemaeth | i've learned my lesson, ignore red numbers with exclamation points, they bring trouble | 08:38 |
Aemaeth | it says i'm erasing ubuntu, is that what happened? | 08:40 |
MidnightCommando | 'sup guys | 10:27 |
MidnightCommando | i've got just a little bit of trouble with the xubuntu 10.04 desktop amd64 disc. | 10:27 |
MidnightCommando | namely, the damned thing's useless. sha256 checks out, i've tried multiple CDs and at multiple speeds, even a USB stick via unetbootin | 10:27 |
MidnightCommando | official ubuntu CDs start just fine | 10:28 |
MidnightCommando | as do other livecds i've burned | 10:28 |
MidnightCommando | this livecd, however, refuses under any circumstances to boot, inf act my computer acts like it's not even there. has anyone had this problem? | 10:28 |
* MidnightCommando for nick in #channel, do poke $nick, done | 11:10 | |
chomwitt | trying to install 10.04 in a school lab with pentium4s and 200MB i noticed install times over 2hours. The lab has 64Kbs isdn connection so i guess it must bandwidth issue. can i do a cdrom only install? | 13:24 |
psycho_oreos | I believe so yes, but you still need to update it | 13:26 |
chomwitt | psycho_oreos: i could use apt-cache for the update procude. | 13:26 |
MidnightCommando | oooh, activity | 13:27 |
psycho_oreos | chomwitt, yeah but I'm not sure whether or not you still need the signing keys or you'll need to manually add your own | 13:27 |
psycho_oreos | MidnightCommando, what's your computer spec? | 13:28 |
MidnightCommando | i am attempting to run 10.04 amd64 desktop as a livecd ... alas my livecds fail to boot, and making the xubuntu iso into a liveusb also failed. suggestions? i can't believe the release team would put out a broken release, because someone would have noticed... obviously i'm doing something wrong. can has halp? | 13:28 |
psycho_oreos | more specifically what is the CPU | 13:29 |
MidnightCommando | psycho_oreos: amd athlon64+ x2 ... gigabyte motherboard with latest BIOS flash, pioneer dvr-118 on EIDE, one harddrive (320G) for /, /boot, and swap, one 1.5TB drive for /home, both on internal SATA | 13:29 |
MidnightCommando | oh and the MBR of the system drive is trashed so i've been using a boot floppy for a month or three. >_> | 13:30 |
chomwitt | psycho_oreos: thanks | 13:30 |
MidnightCommando | (tl;dr no i am not runnning 64-bit code on a 32-bit cpu, if that's what you're thinking) | 13:30 |
moetunes | did you do the md5 check on the iso? | 13:31 |
MidnightCommando | no. i did sha256 | 13:31 |
MidnightCommando | which checked out. | 13:31 |
moetunes | k | 13:31 |
psycho_oreos | MidnightCommando, no, but are you sure that your computer can boot usb? I have amd x2 sitting right next to me with msi mobo and there's no bios updates to make it boot usb | 13:32 |
psycho_oreos | why not give the i386 version a try? | 13:32 |
MidnightCommando | psycho_oreos: absolutely sure, the BIOS Boot Priority Selection explicitly lists USB devices | 13:32 |
MidnightCommando | psycho_oreos: because i need to chroot into a 64-bit environment. | 13:32 |
MidnightCommando | i'm pulling a bit of a rescue mission. | 13:32 |
MidnightCommando | i'd use the disc i'm on atm (kubuntu 7.10 amd64) for it, but it doesn't have ext4 which is a HUGE problem | 13:33 |
MidnightCommando | hrm psycho_oreos is it possible that one of the mirroring sites holds a corrupt verstion of the iso? | 13:38 |
MidnightCommando | because i did kind of grab the file from the internode mirror. over ftp. | 13:38 |
psycho_oreos | unlikely but possible | 13:40 |
MidnightCommando | meh | 13:42 |
MidnightCommando | an md5 collision is extremely improbable for mere corruption, and the md5s match up to another server (ftp.ubuntu.com) | 13:42 |
MidnightCommando | this is puzzling | 13:43 |
moetunes | if the iso checks out it might be a bad burn - tried the cd chesk? | 13:44 |
moetunes | or check even? | 13:44 |
MidnightCommando | moetunes: cd check would work if i got to ISOLINUX | 13:46 |
MidnightCommando | i don't | 13:46 |
MidnightCommando | i don't know if it's possible to checksum a cd against a file? | 13:46 |
MidnightCommando | (also, the cd burn being at fault is not really likely given the liveUSB attempt failed spectacularly) | 13:47 |
moetunes | you don't even get to the cd's menu? | 13:48 |
MidnightCommando | moetunes: "computer acts like it's not even there" as i described earlier | 13:49 |
MidnightCommando | i still can't think of a better way to put it | 13:49 |
MidnightCommando | :( | 13:49 |
moetunes | MidnightCommando: if the cd will work in another comp you might have h/ware issues... | 13:50 |
MidnightCommando | precluded again by the liveUSB booting as far as the unetbootin loader and then failing | 13:51 |
MidnightCommando | and the fact that other CDs boot without issue | 13:52 |
moetunes | ofc - I should pay more attention | 13:53 |
MidnightCommando | oh and by the way | 13:53 |
MidnightCommando | i don't know if i'm showing any attitude atm, i find it difficult to discern at the best of times :P but if so, i do apologise. | 13:53 |
moetunes | it's all fine :] | 13:54 |
moetunes | I'm watching a movie here atm so my attention is split | 13:54 |
MidnightCommando | i think i'm going to attempt another boot run in case it's just One Of Those Gremlins | 13:59 |
MidnightCommando | at this point i don't want to download another livecd | 13:59 |
moetunes | good luck :] | 13:59 |
MidnightCommando | so, thanks everyone, i'll brb - just need to detach and reboot. | 13:59 |
MidnightCommando | wish i could say i had better luck | 14:09 |
moetunes | bummer | 14:10 |
MidnightCommando | now have to wait an hour for off-peak so i can go grab an iso of linux-mint-xfce or something | 14:11 |
MidnightCommando | i'm starting to suspect xubuntu jsut doesn't like me as much as it used to | 14:11 |
MidnightCommando | (i had 7.10 when i was doing my first gentoo install a while back, it was /flawless/ on this hardware) | 14:12 |
MidnightCommando | thanks kindly for all your help, guys! much appreciated :) | 14:13 |
* MidnightCommando exit stage left | 14:13 | |
wbadger | hi, when I close a terminal window (or type exit) the program gets stuck. If I try to kill it it just gets defunct but the process never dies. does anyone know what could cause this? btw I have several more issues but I don't know if they are connected. | 16:43 |
eeffoc | <wbadger>, the terminal window itself gets stuck? | 16:59 |
wbadger | yes | 17:05 |
wbadger | I then get the message "This window might be busy and is not responding.Do you want to terminate the application?" | 17:05 |
eeffoc | Hmm, I haven't seen that one -- I'll have to search around a bit. Have you checked the ubuntu forum site yet? | 17:10 |
wbadger | eeffoc, sorry, I didn't. I'll try that | 17:13 |
eeffoc | I wish I was more help! Sorry >_< Does the message allow you to select 'yes' or 'no', thus terminating the terminal successfully, or does it still hang? | 17:13 |
eeffoc | It isn't a full screen terminal, is it? | 17:15 |
wbadger | the message does allow me that, and it isn't full screen. And thank you | 17:16 |
TheSheep | wbadger: you could try using strace to see what the program is doing | 17:19 |
wbadger | TheSheep, I tried. I saw nothing special, it ended with "exit_group(127) = ?" | 17:20 |
chomwitt | i installed 10.04 in a virtual machine with no network atall and i see that it has the same packages. So why in the installation a slow connection can make the installation so slow? | 17:21 |
TheSheep | chomwitt: maybe it checks for updates? | 17:22 |
charlie-tca | A slow connection means it will still download some of the packages. No connection means it will not even attempt the downloads | 17:26 |
chomwitt | TheSheep: is there a debug way to see what installer is doing? | 17:26 |
TheSheep | chomwitt: there is the install log | 17:27 |
chomwitt | i installed over 10 pc last week in two school labs in greece. except for the installation delay in the slow internet case i also noted that the first time i boot the system is very slow.. when i reboot its ok!. It sounds strange, but the same happend now in my virtual xubuntu!! | 17:29 |
chomwitt | nevertheless in the one lab everything is ok now. Xubuntu saw ok an old msi p4 mobo , sound ok ,microphone ok,web cam ok ,scanner ok! So a great thanks to xubuntu and foss! | 17:30 |
chomwitt | TheSheep: i'll try to find the install log. thanks! | 17:31 |
charlie-tca | chomwitt: /var/log/installer | 17:31 |
eeffoc | Anyone know how to make the panel STAY? I can use ALT | 17:47 |
eeffoc | errr. ALT + F2 and run XFCE4-Panel | 17:47 |

hagg | hello, i just tried to install qtcreator on a fresh install of xubuntu lucid lynx. qtdesigner works, qtdemos works, but qtcreator takes one whole cpu-core for ~1min, a window pops up and closes immediatly. no error messages. | 19:48 |
hagg | any idea what might cause this? | 19:49 |
hagg | i tested it on my "default" xubuntu system, same behaviour | 19:50 |
Sysi | hagg: start it in terminal and see if it gives error messages | 20:16 |
hagg | no error messages, tried it already in a terminal | 20:17 |
hagg | window opens, closes immediatly, and the shell-prompt shows (process exited, i guess) | 20:17 |
Sysi | does it have -v or something verbose? | 20:18 |
hagg | no, just a parameter for version according to manpage and --help output | 20:20 |
hagg | wait a moment, i am going to strace it | 20:21 |
hagg | http://codepad.org/oATSUYqK <- latest 42 lines of strace output | 20:25 |
Sysi | you should propably file a bug | 20:26 |
