03:54.31 | coywolf | petemc, all MTA requires /et/aliases.db ? |
03:54.42 | peterS | coywolf: no, but postfix apparently does in your configuration |
03:55.00 | coywolf | peterS, or most MTA require? |
03:55.34 | peterS | coywolf: aliases.db is an implementation detail. Debian MTAs are set up to use the plain text file /etc/aliases by default. some of them require that this be compiled into another form, using the 'newaliases' command. |
03:56.01 | coywolf | petemc, i find i have /etc/mail/aliases.db |
03:56.18 | peterS | coywolf: then it's time to figure out why your postfix config thinks you should have /etc/aliases.db instead |

04:01.57 | redd4 | its 5 or 7 |
04:01.59 | peterS | rxed: the 'auto' line in /etc/network/interfaces - make sure only eth0 is in that line (well, and 'lo', that should always be there) |
04:02.05 | unfo | redd4: cfdisk |
04:02.08 | redd4 | ty |
04:02.25 | rxed | peterS: I need both network cards. |
04:02.39 | peterS | rxed: you just got done saying you only wanted the system to use one. make up your mind. |

04:02.48 | rxed | peterS: that is correct. |
04:02.51 | maheem | thanx people. all works |
04:03.20 | peterS | rxed: so, if you only want to use one, you edit /etc/network/interfaces to tell the system only to bring the one interface up |
04:03.23 | rxed | peterS: eth0 is what I want to use for email, browsing etc. eth1 is my wireless that I'm just monitoring, but don't want to use. |

04:04.02 | rxed | peterS: but I don't want to use it for browsing etc. |
04:04.22 | peterS | I suppose what you want to do, then, is remove the routing information involving eth1, after bringing it up. that can be done with 'up route del...' commands in the interfaces file |
04:04.57 | rxed | peterS: hrmm... what is the man page for that? |
04:05.04 | wireddd | rxed, or if eth1 is fixed ip, just don't give it a gateway |
04:05.21 | peterS | 'man route' to learn how to use the route command, I guess. putting 'up' hooks into the interfaces file is documented in 'man 5 interfaces' |
04:05.40 | orangey | how do I disable a service from starting? |
04:05.43 | orangey | dpkg_on or something? |
04:05.52 | peterS | yeah, the other option is just not to give eth1 even an IP address. that can be managed via the interfaces file too. without an IP address, you can't really send traffic through it |
04:05.57 | peterS | orangey: update-rc.d |
04:06.19 | rxed | wireddd: It's not a static IP, but I guess I could ifconfig it without a GW, right? |

06:03.07 | brownie17 | tralala, ?? not following? this means i should do what? |
06:03.43 | brownie17 | ic3man05, it may rtun fine that high, but there is a setting in most bios's that says how hot it should go before shutdown, and you're must be exceeding that |
06:03.47 | tralala | brownie17: it means that the file is not there. Broken mirror? |
06:04.14 | brownie17 | ic3man05, this is not a debian problem, me thinks |
06:04.29 | brownie17 | tralala, where can i get the url of an alternative? |

06:04.52 | brownie17 | ic3man05, that's probably you're problem, try replacing that |
06:05.04 | Vasistha | chino: well you could use the unzip or gunzip tool to list the contents of the package |
06:05.25 | chino | Vasistha: whats a normal place thats all im asking |

16:07.52 | blondie | !wine |
16:07.52 | dpkg | well, wine is at http://www.winehq.com/ or #winehq. It stands for Wine Is Not an Emulator or alternative win32 API. very buggy, will be a major part of the death of M$. The sources.list lines are: deb http://people.debian.org/~andreas/debian wine main, deb-src http://people.debian.org/~andreas/debian wine main. apt-get install shiraz, or a tasty alcoholic beverage. |
16:08.03 | simonrvn | how about libnss_ldap.conf? (but that's for NSS, not PAM). what do you have in /etc/pam.d/ssh, and nsswitch.conf? use #flood or a pastebin (URI to follow) |
16:08.05 | simonrvn | !paster |
16:08.05 | dpkg | Instead of pasting in #debian or #flood, use paster, your friendly paste bot. Visit http://channels.debian.net/paste then select #debian and paste away. Afterwards, give us the resulting url. |
16:08.09 | rockstar_ | marco13185, Well, it's not that it's unfixable. I'm just say it's not likely without divine intervention. |

17:15.40 | Totoro | Hi, could somebody please help me with an installation issue I'm desperate about. I have an AMD64 with an Asus K8N4 Deluxe board (nForce 4) chipset, and a SATA drive attached. No debian installation (tested out all netinst's and businesscards, even the latest ones) found the HDD and it seems like nobody in the world shares this problem with me... |
17:16.46 | hyksos | Totoro :which problem? |
17:17.09 | onetinsoldier | his problem is that a debian installer cannot find his sata hard drive |
17:17.11 | Totoro | hyksos: hdd not found. |
17:17.24 | hyksos | Totoro :tried with knoppix? |
17:17.46 | Totoro | it doesn't show up in the partitioner, neither in /proc/partitions nor /proc/devices |
17:18.10 | De_Mon | vulture hmm, i think this has more to do with them changing the behavior of 'vi' vs 'vim', since debian.vim isn't executed when running 'vi' any more |
17:18.15 | hyksos | Totoro :have you booted knoppix and then theres no sata-drive? |
17:18.15 | Totoro | hyksos: Debian testing netinst. Tried the latest builds too. |
17:18.31 | vulture | De_Mon: depends how you set the vim alternative in update-alternatives |
17:18.56 | vulture | if you've installed another vi, it might have stolen the vi alias |

17:49.32 | korhojoa | ok |

17:50.59 | korhojoa | now another question, anyone got any idea on how to get utf-8 support in irssi on sarge? |
17:51.22 | valdyn | korhojoa: irssi supports utf-8 |
17:51.31 | korhojoa | not 0.8.9 |

17:51.56 | valdyn | korhojoa: its probably your terminal that does not |
17:51.58 | korhojoa | or, rather, switch to using it |
17:52.01 | valdyn | !utf8 |
17:52.01 | dpkg | rumour has it, utf8 is how the Perl people spell UTF-8. See also <UTF-8>. |

20:19.24 | neurocyte | lord_rob, yep |

20:20.40 | dondelelcaro | _Sam--: apt is far more powerfull... when you run double digit boxes in production, you'll understand why it does things the way it does. |
20:20.50 | neoXite | however i don't get any errors with the same cryptsetup package using knoppix with a 2.6.12 kernel |
20:21.26 | _Sam-- | im just far to engrained with the 'if it aint broke, im not touching it' mentality...and having something automatically making changes to a production box for me makes me worry. |
20:21.46 | dondelelcaro | _Sam--: that's why you run stable on production machines with known apt sources. |
20:21.50 | neoXite | i tested my ram and the hardware has always been good to me, but i'm inexperienced with interpreting kernel error messages, can someone please have a look at if the error is critical? |

23:13.34 | zebalin4 | kaffiene is a front-end for zine. |
23:13.35 | pollywog | and no politics |

23:14.10 | zebalin4 | unfo: ok. worth a try. |
23:14.10 | Brox | unfo: did it, found nothing |
23:14.11 | unfo | zebalin4: it is recommended you use a sound wrapper on firefox. |

23:14.21 | zebalin4 | sound wrapper? |
23:14.33 | Brox | unfo: e.g. fig2ps, g text & transfig |
23:14.41 | unfo | Brox: use one of those. |
23:14.45 | jshriver | Is there anyway to fix it? Shouldnt require a FFR |
23:14.50 | MatBoy | Why has they removed the nvidia-drivers and sources from Etch... just when I need it :( |
23:14.57 | unfo | Brox: apt-cache show fig2ps transfig for more info |
23:15.09 | unfo | MatBoy: you should not be using etch. Use Stable. |

23:16.20 | unfo | MatBoy: use stable. |
23:16.21 | thingfish | I used to be caught up in that "got to have the newest version" thing. Trouble is, until that software's been around a while, it's buggy as hell. |
23:16.21 | MatBoy | unfo, and moving from etch to stable is no option with a downgrade :p |

23:16.34 | MatBoy | pollywog, indeed.... the same here |
23:16.35 | unfo | kaiSVK: r2 is newest. |
23:16.42 | Brox | unfo: ok sorry for being rude - so does that mean apt-cache search only gives me packages that include the package i was looking for? So i always win if apt-cache search give me anything at all? |
23:16.43 | MatBoy | unfo, are you deaf ? |
23:16.52 | kaiSVK | unfo: so I should download it ? |
23:16.58 | thingfish | MatBoy: there's a sarge installer with a 2.6.15 kernel, if that would help. |
23:17.15 | unfo | Brox: sorta. see the Apt Howto (it's on Google) for more info, or ask the whole channel, not just me. :) |
23:17.19 | unfo | !apt-file |
23:17.19 | dpkg | rumour has it, apt-file is util used to find which package owns a given file, or list files in a package, see also auto-apt and pdo, or use apt-file: apt-get install apt-file && apt-file update ; then "apt-file search filename" will give you a list of packages containing filename |

23:48.09 | marco13185 | unfo, yes, I use expert mode so I can choose unstable |

23:48.40 | marco13185 | unfo, I know what it is |
23:48.41 | unfo | you will save a lot of time. |

23:48.48 | GeorgeAScott | so... unfo... not to be a pain... but the manpage for xmodmap doesn't really tell me anything about a way to have it done at boot. |
23:48.54 | marco13185 | I might do a reinstall tonight |
23:48.57 | unfo | GeorgeAScott: 1 sec |
23:48.57 | marco13185 | I'm getting sick of this shit |
23:49.13 | marco13185 | unfo, what do you use, etch? |
23:49.24 | quitte_ | unfo: i haven't seen marco act like a total newbie so far. i agree he shouldn't use sid. but i dont see why you are forcing him to use stable,either. |

23:49.46 | unfo | <PROTECTED> |
23:49.46 | cerebroenfuga | unfo, but that way debconf installs kernel 2.4; is there a way of using priority critical but install kernel 2.6 instead? |
23:49.48 | cjaymes | is apache 1.3 broken? |
23:49.49 | unfo | <PROTECTED> |
23:50.01 | GeorgeAScott | yup i read that part |
23:50.20 | marco13185 | compared to most of you, I'm not a linux pro, but I know my way around |
23:50.23 | unfo | cerebroenfuga: I don't know. You could install 2.4 then apt-get later. Or ask the channel, maybe someone else knows. :) |
23:50.35 | stew | GeorgeAScott: run it from ~/.xsession before you start your window manager |
23:50.36 | GeorgeAScott | there are 90 different xmodmap files in my user dir... none of them are xmodmaprc though |
23:51.10 | cerebroenfuga | allright, thxs :) |
23:51.15 | quitte_ | marco13185: have you tried playing sound with a music app directly with xmms for example? |
23:51.16 | cjaymes | I'm having trouble getting php scripts to be parsed by php; the scripts come through as files, downloaded |
23:51.17 | unfo | GeorgeAScott: I used to use the xkeycaps util to do everything for me. |
23:51.23 | marco13185 | quitte_, that's exactly what I do |
23:51.23 | rrk | #flood |
23:51.28 | marco13185 | quitte_, only if I run as root |
23:51.38 | unfo | rrk: /join #flood |
23:51.40 | marco13185 | do i get sound, If I run as user, the files don't even play |
23:51.48 | stew | cerebroenfuga: use linux26 at the boot prompt, (hit f1 for help) |
23:52.01 | cerebroenfuga | stew, thanks very much |

23:52.16 | quitte_ | marco13185: ok. try to load the snd-pcm-oss module. maybe that helps. or change the output plugin of xmms to alsa |
23:52.26 | marco13185 | quitte_, it is alsa |
23:52.48 | cerebroenfuga | did you try alasmixer? |
23:52.50 | quitte_ | marco13185: modprobe snd-pcm-oss saves a lot of trouble it gives you oss emulation |
23:53.00 | cerebroenfuga | may be the volume level is cero |
23:53.02 | stew | marco13185: it works as root but not user? make sure user is in the audio group: type "groups" and if its not listed, "adduser username audio" |
23:53.19 | stew | marco13185: if you have to add the user to the group, log out and back in before trying again. |

23:58.55 | PestPete | nano /etc/network/interfaces ? |
