[20:07] <WaiXan> You see
[20:07] <jrib> hi
[20:08] <WaiXan> hi
[20:08] <jrib> tell me the output of 'ls -l /home/zander/shot'
[20:08] <WaiXan> ok
[20:08] <WaiXan> zander@zander-desktop:~$ ls -l /home/zander/shot
[20:08] <WaiXan> -rwxr-xr-x 1 zander zander 629 2008-02-09 20:52 /home/zander/shot
[20:08] <jrib> ok
[20:09] <jrib> how about 'echo $PATH'
[20:09] <WaiXan> zander@zander-desktop:~$ echo $PATH
[20:09] <WaiXan> /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games
[20:09] <jrib> ok
[20:09] <jrib> now run 'sudo cp /home/zander/shot /usr/local/bin' and tell me the output if any
[20:10] <WaiXan> Non output
[20:10] <WaiXan> *no output
[20:10] <jrib> ok, now 'ls -l /usr/local/bin/'
[20:11] <WaiXan> zander@zander-desktop:~$ ls -l /usr/local/bin/
[20:11] <WaiXan> total 0
[20:11] <jrib> ...
[20:11] <jrib> that doesn't make sense
[20:11] <jrib> what happens when you do 'sudo echo hi'?
[20:11] <WaiXan> Nothing
[20:11] <jrib> so your sudo is broken
[20:12] <WaiXan> Bad
[20:12] <jrib> tell me the output of 'groups'
[20:12] <WaiXan> zander@zander-desktop:~$ groups
[20:12] <WaiXan> zander adm dialout fax cdrom floppy tape audio dip video plugdev scanner fuse lpadmin admin netdev powerdev
[20:12] <jrib> what version of ubuntu?
[20:12] <WaiXan> 7.10
[20:13] <LjL> someone finally made sudo a link to /bin/true?
[20:13] <WaiXan> Gutsy
[20:14] <jrib> LjL: any ideas before I go fishing?
[20:15] <WaiXan> the whole sudo is broken
[20:15] <LjL> jrib: not really, but i'd check the md5s of all files in the sudo package, not knowing any better
[20:15] <jrib> WaiXan: did you know this before?
[20:15] <WaiXan> jrib: Yes
[20:15] <jrib> WaiXan: no ideas why?
[20:15] <WaiXan> jrib: No.. I've just installed ubuntu
[20:16] <jrib> WaiXan: did the install succeed without error?
[20:16] <WaiXan> jrib: Yes it did
[20:17] <jrib> WaiXan: are you able to open "system -> administration -> users and groups" for example?
[20:17] <WaiXan> jrib: No I can't
[20:17] <jrib> WaiXan: any errors?
[20:17] <WaiXan> I'll check
[20:18] <LjL> jrib: how about an strace of sudo
[20:18] <WaiXan> jrib: It came one before but not now
[20:18] <jrib> LjL: go for it
[20:19] <WaiXan> I'll try to restart. That might help?
[20:19] <LjL> WaiXan: pastebin the output of « strace sudo true » first please
[20:19] <WaiXan> Ok
[20:20] <WaiXan> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55414/
[20:21] <LjL> bah, it's the same stuff as i get
[20:22] <WaiXan> But What the hek
[20:23] <jrib> WaiXan: try to do 'sudo -K' and then see if you get an error again
[20:23] <WaiXan> jrib: It didn't gave me any output at all
[20:24] <jrib> WaiXan: k, but try the Users and Groups program again
[20:25] <WaiXan> Nothing happend :{
[20:25] <LjL> ps aux
[20:25] <jrib> don't know then
[20:25] <WaiXan> It's just starting then terminating
[20:25] <WaiXan> I might reinstall ubuntu
[20:26] <WaiXan> or?
[20:27] <WaiXan> I'll do that. Thanks. See you later
[20:27] <LjL> WaiXan: give me « ps aux » and also « sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop »
[20:27] <LjL> err
[20:28] <LjL> nevermind the latter
[20:28] <LjL> WaiXan: just « apt-cache policy ubuntu-desktop »
[20:32] <jrib> or not
[20:33] <LjL> i didn't have very much anyway
