jbermudesHas anyone ever had their .bashrc file interpret a colon in a path declaration as a literal colon instead of a delimiter?03:08
grantbowwill a \ escape work in that case?03:12
jbermudesgrantbow:  it's escaping it when it shouldn't03:12
grantbowoh, the other way... hmm...03:13
icarus81Good evening03:20
philipballewicarus81, good evening03:29
icarus81How are you. I didn't think anybody was here.03:31
grantbowjbermudes: man bash has the answer. Try single quotes.03:31
philipballewicarus81, why didnt you think anyone was?03:34
grantbowicarus81: IRC has different ways of talking. People aren't always looking at the channel but will read the logs and answer questions if you have them so just ask.03:38
grantbowor the mail list03:39
jbermudesgrantbow: That'd still make it literal... but I think I figured it out. It was a custom environment variable, and only PATH and a few other special ones know that colon is a separator03:41
icarus81oh ok. I just had a question about my ati Video card. It keeps randomly freezing.  I installed both the ATI driver and the restricted ubuntu driver both seem to have the same problem.03:42
icarus81I just looking for advice. In what direction to go next its really anoying to be surfing and all of a sudden have the computer freeze on you.03:45
jbermudesicarus81: Do you have any proprietary drivers installed?03:50
icarus81Yes, Now I do.03:50
jbermudesBut what about when it crashed?03:51
jbermudesOh, I see what you mean... and do you know what model?03:52
icarus81The Card is  http://www.amd.com/us/products/desktop/graphics/amd-radeon-hd-6000/hd-6450/pages/amd-radeon-hd-6450-overview.aspx03:55
icarus81I used this page http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Maverick_Installation_Guide (mentioned on ATI site)  to install the driver correctly.03:58
jbermudesIs Maverick your first version or did it used to work in an earlier one?04:00
icarus81I am pretty sure this is a fresh 10.10 install04:00
icarus81is there anyway I could check?04:01
jbermudesBut is this the first time using ubuntu with this machine? In other words, perhaps in an earlier version it worked, but then you wiped clean and tried 10.1004:03
icarus81I just got this card 2 weeks ago.04:06
icarus81The old one (ATI) worked find the fan just came loose and it became noisy and annoying.04:07
grantbowcould the crashing be a heat problem?04:07
icarus81It might be but it crashed when I have been browsing online04:08
icarus81like just reading reddit04:08
icarus81I don't see a temp monitor in ATI catalyst.04:13
jbermudesHow often does it crash?04:15
jbermudesAnd when you say freezing, the screen freezes? Or does the system become unresponsive (caps lock light wont toggle, etc.)04:15
icarus81unresponsive it flashes really quick then the mouse freezes and I loose all control04:16
icarus81it happens randomly. It happend twice yestarday.04:18
jbermudesI wonder if it might be fixed in 11.0404:18
jbermudesIs there a reason you're still on 10.10?04:19
