this is what i ended up using. i'm kinda disappointed that the typical awk couldn't work on ubuntu as it works and other linux/unix oses.

FWIW, in later versions of Ubuntu the default awk became gawk. In this version (13.04) probably gawk 4.01 You could try running the command as:
Code:
mawk 'NR> 92239 && NR<= 92279'

to see if that makes a difference..

Actual Debian Testing (Jessie) also uses gawk after a "standard system" install.
You still get mawk if you choose to not install the "Standard system" at Tasksel install step.
