Re: New install, new to Licq & Linux. I get 00:47:47: [ERR] Unknown sign on error: 0x1C

Thanks Anders,
I'm running an Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy, which was upgraded from an original 
install 7.10 from disk.  It has a couple of problems that appear to have 
originated with the upgrade. Kernal is 2.6.24.25, Gnome 2.22.3, on an 
AMD Sempron 2600+ which I built myself.  503.5 MiB Ram, and 121.6 GiB 
hard drive space unused.
I'm good w/ the hardware, but an infant when it comes to Linux, being a 
new convert from Windows.
