Nothing in the /var/log/fsck/  logfiles either.

Thanks for the suggestions, though.

I doubt it, but it's possible I didn't read the message correctly. 
It did flash by pretty quickly.

when a file system is not unmounted cleanly, fsck says "corrupt or 
not cleanly unmounted", so, the "corrupt" does not necessarily mean 
bad. in particular, if you didn't notice anything weird, you're most 
likely fine.

in general, if fsck finds something really bad, it stops and asks 
you what to do.

Took some hours but finally managed to get Jira installed on Linux. 
 It's maxing out my Xeon 2.8 with 1.5 gb of ram. Maybe I should try 
and find another Xeon 2.8 to populate the second cpu slot... I presume 
Java can use multiple CPUs

Something to be said for light weight components like curecode

Ah yes, I remember that fsck message now.

(I don't remember the previous shutdown having any problems, though..)

Ubuntu is set up do automatically do a fsck check every 30 mounts, 
although it would seem odd if that message pops up on a scheduled 
check..

My bad on the Jira .. .I set the bios to OS install mode when I was 
trying to determine why I wasn't able to install Ubuntu ( faulty 
raid array ), and that limits the ram to 256Mb.  Turned it off and 
the OS can now see the full 1.5Gb .. so it's running acceptably faster 
now.

The Jira tracker is very nice and configurable via the web interface. 
 Pity it's so expensive ...

Oh, maybe the unclean unmount occurred many shutdowns ago, but was 
not noticed until the scheduled fsck.

Izkata: no, the message in that case is different.

Anton: no, if the fs was not cleanly unmounted it will be checked 
at the next boot. (otherwise the kernel refuses to mount it.)

most likely, something failed during the shutdown, but you didn't 
notice as the computer did shut down at the end.

That makes sense.

A question for Linux users: I decided to try to build REBOL on an 
Ubuntu Live boot. I could build Core but not View... because the 
X11 includes are missing... or so it seems.  Tried to run Synaptic, 
but won't load. Any ideas?

PS: This is the most recent from the ubuntu website.

32 bit Ubuntu ..

yes

sudo apt-get install libx11-dev  ?

crashed and burned

the 'gets worked, the 'dpkgs all failed

use aptitude instead??

have you updated?

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

oops -- just noticed the questions were for linux users

You were doing pretty well if you aren't a Linux user :)

win32 forever!

well, until I get win64

A live boot cd is probably out of date ...

the live cd is missing stuff (in order to make it fit), it also is 
doing everything in memory (including the things you download and 
try to install), and afaik the "ram disk" is fixed size (so it may 
not be big enough to hold what you're trying to install).

you may be able to create your own live cd that does what you need 
but... i think that's more work than installing, or using a virtual 
machine.

Ubuntu Live CDs don't have all the repositories enabled, either

Hello everybody, I have a problem with Linux:  DRAW   choose a font 
that give problem displaying:

example: ['text "Hello word!"]
view layout [ box 100x100 effect [draw example ]]

on linux it gives a blank window.
I added:

example: ['text "Hello word!"]
if (pick system/version 4) = 4 [
	fnt1: make face/font [ 
		name: "/usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeSans.ttf"
		size: 12
		]
	os: "linux"
	]
if os = "linux" [ insert example reduce ['font fnt1]	]
view layout [ box 100x100 effect [draw example ]]

This solution is good, but using REBGUI  it doesn't work anymore.
What can I do?

Sorry, I I finded now the RebGUI group, I'll post there my question.

Hello MaxV, why don't use:
view layout/size [text "Hello word!"] 100x100
Work for me at Kubuntu

Not AGG

Dear ManuM, my problem is with graphic. I have to display a graph 
with lines, rectangules and texts, so I use DRAW. Have you ever used 
DRAW on Linux?

I want to do something like:  http://picasaweb.google.it/lh/photo/blmYoQ1StCsXdxBTcSg1Fg?feat=directlink
but it doesn't  work no linux... sigh!

Hello Max. Yes, I have used sometimes DRAW on Linux.

Try this, work for me at Kubuntu.

do %rebgui.r

if system/version/4 = 4 [ face/font/name: "/usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeSans.ttf" 
]

example: [ font face/font ]

on linux, you need the full path to the font you are trying to use. 
 ttf fonts are supported.

Is that comic repetition ?
:-)

I am assuming this is a linux thing. I am learning really basic stuff 
as a Rebol newbie. When I try running the expamle from http://www.rebol.com/docs/core23/rebolcore-3.html

print read ftp://ftp.rebol.com/pub

I get the following error:

>> print read ftp://ftp.rebol.com/pub
** User Error: Server error: tcp 530 Login authentication failed
** Near: print read ftp://ftp.rebol.com/pub

I was expecting this to work. What am I doing wrong?

i'm pretty sure that rebol.com doesn't have ftp enabled

I guess it was once enabled, but has

since been closed, for security reason.

they were hit by a hacker who defaced their site ...

I think they came in via ftp

try this 

 print read ftp://ftp.compkarori.com/

or, you can do this

>> trace/net on
>> print read ftp://ftp.rebol.com/
