IAmNotThatGuyravibn: check the kernel version of the Live CD you use13:10
IAmNotThatGuyif it is not after 2.6.33, then get another CD with later kernel versions13:11
ravibnI downloaded ISO from ubuntu website and burnt it to CD13:12
ravibnHow do I check the kernel version on the CD ?13:12
AbhiJitravibn, are you inside live cd right now?13:13

AbhiJitravibn, you can check kernel version by 'uname -r'13:13
ravibnAbhijit : I am back and I have the live cd on my DVD drive13:17
ravibnAbhiJit : which directory will show the kernel version on this live cd13:17
AbhiJitravibn, go to terminal and to uname -r13:19

mohi1Bodsda: what do you think now? :P19:11

mohi1sup Bodsda ?19:11
Bodsdamohi1: working on my website, I am going to attempt to rebuild it by hand using html, css and php19:12
Bodsdamohi1: you?19:13

phillwBodsda: building a site by hand is the best way. I built http://mgjuddltd.co.uk/ by coding everything19:59
Bodsdaphillw: that looks pretty cool - nice work20:00
Mjiigif i set a cron job to run say at midday, and my computer is not on at midday, will the job run the next time i turn my computer on, or will it be forgotten about until midday tomorrow? thanks20:01
aveilleuxMjiig, it will be ignored until midday the next day20:01
aveilleuxMjiig, something you might want to look into is anacron.20:03
phillwBodsda: http://mgjuddltd.co.uk/info.php details the fact I learned about accessibilty coding. I was not expecting an 'AAA' rating, but got it, further details at http://forum.phillw.net/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=3220:03
Mjiigaveilleux: i'm afraid that isn't appropriate, because i would need the command to run on a sunday, and always a sunday. my reading of anacron docs is that if my computer isn't turned on for a sunday the job will start occuring on mondays20:07
Mjiigthe other question i was going to ask is whether the same limitations that apply to cron apply to at?20:08
aveilleuxMjiig, what is "at"?20:08
aveilleuxMjiig, Oh, nevermind, I found it20:09
aveilleuxMjiig, I wasn't aware of any restrictions on cron, which ones do you mean? Escaped characters and the like, or something else?20:09
Mjiigsorry, the ones that you just mentioned, that the machine must be up at the time of execution20:10
aveilleuxMjiig, I believe so, yes. I mean, you could run anacron, and have the command you need to execute inside of an if-statement that checks the day of week to make sure it's sunday20:12
Mjiigokay, i'll think about it. I don't think that solution will be ideal, but i'm sure i'll be able to hack something together20:13
aveilleuxMjiig, Something like http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/507471/20:14
Mjiigyeah i know what you mean, but that still has some draw back. I don't think i'm explaining myself clearly... don't worry about it. It's not to important anyway20:16
aveilleuxEr20:16
aveilleuxhttp://pastebin.ubuntu.com/507472/20:17
aveilleuxThat's more correct20:17
Mjiiglike i say, don't worry about it20:18
aveilleuxMjiig, what kind of drawback do you mean? You set anacron to run that task on Sunday, and if it's not Sunday then when anacron automatically runs the task, nothing happens20:18
Mjiigbut thanks a lot anyway20:18
aveilleuxNo problem, Mjiig20:18
aveilleux*sighs* No one appreciates BASH anymore20:18
Bodsdaphillw: can I ask you a quick css question?20:27
