[11:01] <s-fox> Hello.
[12:04] <fireballin> Sup all, i am trying to duel boot linux with Win 7 but before the gui starts it locks up and i can see where it says "unable to Mount Image" i am not really new to linux just new to the whole win 7 thing so not sure what is happening
[12:36] <mcarrier> I am running ubuntu 11.10 and can't seem to find "udevinfo" command. Where did it go?
[12:40] <nothingspecial> use udevadm
[12:40] <nothingspecial> mcarrier, ^^
[12:40] <mcarrier> I did, command not found.
[12:41] <nothingspecial> you have to give it parrameters
[12:41] <nothingspecial> eg udevadm info -q all -n /dev/sda1
[12:42] <mcarrier> Still no good. FIle not found.
[12:42] <mcarrier> Got it
[12:42] <mcarrier> forgot the "sudo"
[12:43] <nothingspecial> :)
[12:43] <mcarrier> Can't tell you how many times I forget the "sudo". :-(
[12:44] <nothingspecial> Dont forget you can type sudo !! when you forget the sudo to save you having to type the rest of the command again
[12:46] <mcarrier> Yes, I am well versed in the "!!" as I often forget the sudo.
[12:46] <mcarrier> Thanks for the help
[12:46] <nothingspecial> :)
[12:46] <nothingspecial> no problem

[19:33] <anjar_95> I'm trying to install the python-based program Miramath, but get an error: "AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'QwtPolarPlot'" Any ideas?
[19:37] <nothingspecial> looks like a dependency error anjar_95
=== bladernr_afk is now known as bladernr_
[19:37] <philipballew_> anjar_95, are you installing from apt-get/software center or from somewhere else?
[19:37] <anjar_95> from source
[19:38] <anjar_95> http://sourceforge.net/projects/miramath/files/Release%20Tarballs/
[19:38] <philipballew_> okay, that makes sense. well then. i see that nothingspecial is right there
[19:40] <nothingspecial> anjar_95, have you seen this http://miramath.newfrontierscompsoln.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=50&Itemid=18
[19:40] <anjar_95> That doesn't work.
[19:40] <anjar_95> I think.
[19:41] <nothingspecial> Well. I know nothing of miramath itself but you need to make sure you have everything it requires to run installed
[19:42] <philipballew_> I wonders if theres a updated ppa for it anywhere
[19:44] <nothingspecial> There is a list of dependencies in the README file, have you installed them anjar_95
[19:45] <anjar_95> At least I've tried
[19:45] <nothingspecial> PyQt http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk
[19:45] <nothingspecial> PyQwt and PyQwt3D http://pyqwt.sourceforge.net/
[19:45] <nothingspecial> Ply http://www.dabeaz.com/ply/
[19:45] <nothingspecial> SymPy http://code.google.com/p/sympy/
[19:45] <nothingspecial> SciPy http://www.scipy.org
[19:46] <anjar_95> Is there any easy way to check if they've been properly installed?
[19:46] <nothingspecial> How did you install them?
[19:46] <anjar_95> python setup.py
[19:47] <nothingspecial> Seems like either PyQt or PyQwt is not installed, but I'm guessing
[19:49] <nothingspecial> It says in the documentation "To install the program in your linux system, simply download the tarball containing the self extracting executable file as well as various bits and pieces it needs to run."
[19:49] <nothingspecial> So you need to install the bits and pieces
[19:50] <nothingspecial> I would suggest python-qt4-dev but I don't really know
[20:07] <anjar_95> Do you know what this means?
[20:07] <anjar_95> Determining the layout of your Qt installation...
[20:07] <anjar_95> /usr/bin/qmake -o qtdirs.mk qtdirs.pro

[20:09] <nothingspecial> It means that there is something missing in your system that allows miramath to install
