< binford2k> I'm such a dick
< binford2k> my friend said he was feeling disheartened
< binford2k> I told him to go watch fox

<jess^> saying that java is nice because it works on both server and
client sides is a lot like saying anal sex is nice because it
works on all genders.

<KaMii> because you didnt write it strato_

< Peng> I dunno, sniping someone with a rifle remotely sounds tricky.
< SelfishMan> Peng: The Jackal did it
< Peng> And you still have to get the rifle in place.
< SelfishMan> The Jackal used a van
< Peng> Well duh. Bad guys always use vans.
< Peng> And the A-Team. But mostly bad guys.

<Urchlay> I always use the spacebar becase it's a huge target and my thumb's already sitting on top of it

<Zordrak> the frigging second i solve the pxe problem.. this asus mobo is deciding it cant be arsed to read its own bios anymore
<Zordrak> it just powers up the fans and jerks itself off

<rizitis> I cant edit sudoers file, visudo open the file but I cat write, I think there is a problem with vi and vim at my system. Is there any other safe way to edit sudoers file exept visudo ?
<Zordrak> uh vi /etc/sudoers
<alisonken1noc> visudo has some extra checks to make sure you don't blatantly have an error
<Zordrak> rizitis: you need root to write it
<rizitis> I am root
<alisonken1noc> rizitis, and are you trying to edit it as root or user
<alisonken1noc> ok
<Zordrak> then just open it with any editor
<rizitis> as root
<rizitis> ok I ll try thanks
<rizitis> ok nano did the job so now I have to find what is the problem with vi and vim.
<alienBOB> I use visudo all the time, never any problems
<rizitis> alienBOB, probably I made something wrong...
<rizitis> when I command visudo I cant edit the file only up, down, left and right is working. But even if I stop the program vi still working and only if I kill it it stops..
<alisonken1noc> rizitis, did you put it in edit mode?
<alisonken1noc> when you start vi/visudo - it's in command mode, not edit mode
<rizitis> ops
<rizitis> alisonken1home, how I put it in edit mode, please
