  1. here is one I just did, I'm loving the Gimp.
  2. there is a poll pinned in this section of our boards, Please cast your vote if you haven't already done so. based on how the vote turns out we will make our decision on whether or not to start this forum. 1 vote per member, no admins or Mods are allowed to cast a vote since we have to maintain a neutral state on this forum should it come to life.
  3. thats what the chmod +x step was supposed to do. from what you are explaining, it appears you missed a step. did you follow every step as it was outlined?? and did you use the standard terminal or the root terminal??
  4. Information taken from the Ubuntu Wiki in regards to restricted formats Try DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE=i386-linux fakeroot make-jpkg jre-1_5_0_03-linux-i586.bin[code] or similar command if you are not using i386 architecture. (Note: in above example, 1_5_0_03 might have to be 1_5_0_06.) make-jpkg translates Sun's bin file into a debian package. Then dpkg installs that package.
  5. the linux version you downloaded from Java.com requires a little programming on your part to make it work. was this the JDK or just the JRE?

  8. what version of ubuntu is it?? 5.04 or 5.10?
  9. rather then knock it, why not help code it so that you can help make it have more pop. latest desktop, took 9 hours to make this using the Gimp.

  11. ok, could you please post a fresh Hijack this log. and we will clean up other items that are left over and get this thing fixed.
  12. ok, let's fix this slow start up process you're having. I would recommend running your Disk Defragmentor and Disk cleanup under start>accessories>system tools. Let me know how your system is running after that. yes you may start removing the extra tools you have downloaded and don't need.
  13. ok Bearskin, i didn't know what your system was setup like completely. Rhema, you need at least 128 free ram for Ubuntu unless you are installing it as a server System Requirements from the Wiki

  15. Close any programs you have open since this step requires a reboot. From the l2mfix folder on your desktop, double click l2mfix.bat and select option #2 for Run Fix by typing 2 and then pressing enter. It will process then start. Your desktop and icons will disappear (this is normal). L2mfix will continue to scan your computer and when it's finished, it will be ready for a reboot. Press any key to reboot. After the reboot notepad will open with a log. Copy the contents of that log and paste it back into this thread, along with a new hijackthis log. IMPORTANT: Do NOT run any other files in th

  21. ok, first lets fix the registry problem you are having. Download smitRem.exe ©noahdfear, and save the file to your desktop. Double click on the file to extract it to it's own folder on the desktop. Place a shortcut to Panda ActiveScan on your desktop.

  23. this is odd, it appears as though you are missing programs that you had on there before. are all your programs working ok?? I also did some research on that True Sword. I recommend you reinstate all the "Quarantined" files it has collected. I also advise that you uninstall it and not use it anymore. more information can be obtained at Spyware warriors: Rogue/Suspect list and from the looks of it, this program was just added January 3, 2006. This may be the cause of your hijack this log looking like it was ran from safe mode.
  24. From what I have seen it might be more of a hassle then it's worth. it also appears that most companies are discontinuing manufacture of them.
  25. it appears that you did this scan in safe mode, could you please do a scan in normal mode and post it. thanks
