00:04.12 | peterS | WiFiTux: the theory is that every time you read a file, its inode is updated with the current time for "last access time". this causes disk writes. disk *reads* often come from cache, but disk writes have to eventually hit the disk. 'noatime' suppresses the "last access time" field being updated |

00:59.47 | Omnix | MajorPoopyPants: the main point in not using them for most people and not recompiling is the time it takes. A lot of us need packages quickly :) If you use a package a lot though, then it could be worth recompiling it with optimisations... |
00:59.50 | dondelelcaro | MajorPoopyPants: CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS are the standard ENV variables that control the default flags that the c and cpp compilers use, respectively. |

01:00.40 | stoned | MajorPoopyPants, you can just install the base debian system, and then just get the package sources, modify them and then use apt to build them |
01:00.44 | dondelelcaro | jasonf: apt-build does something like that... |
01:00.58 | MajorPoopyPants | dondelelcaro, I understand that, and I know how it is used in gentoo but not in debian - I was under the impression that what I have now is precompiled binaries, and that I would have to download source packages and SOME kind of packages to recompile my whole system |

01:01.52 | stoned | well, piont being, do whatever you want with the sources, but you can |
01:01.53 | jasonf | MajorPoopyPants: USE flags are just dumbed down ./configure opts |
01:02.01 | dondelelcaro | MajorPoopyPants: read about how makefiles work, and how ENV variables control them. Until you have that basic understanding, you're just wasting your time and mine. |
01:02.03 | abrotman | i would imagine such a script would be easy to write .. but it would take .. days |
01:02.10 | jasonf | MajorPoopyPants: so read the INSTALL of your package, and you'll understand it |

01:12.12 | SquareRt | phorce1: what's the damage likely to be like? |
01:12.20 | dondelelcaro | PerfDave: most places where you would even be running slapd or similar shouldn't even have a compiler installed. |
01:12.21 | phorce1 | Now, on topic. What's the easiest wat to move a complete, working system to a new set of hardware? Do a clean install then pick and poke at the data and configs until it looks like it matches the old system? |
01:12.50 | dondelelcaro | PerfDave: and where there isn't, most of those packages do provide methods of passing additional arguments to the configure scripts so you can rebuild new versions simply and easily if you want something besides the default. |
01:12.50 | PerfDave | dondelelcaro: Uhm, yeah. Which makes maintaining a slapd with different compilation options a huge PITA. |

01:13.55 | disasm | phorce1: pull drive, put in new system boot, probably going to have to play with configs for hardware, like your vid card in x, but i've never had problems with moving debian. |

01:14.32 | dondelelcaro | PerfDave: pretty trivially, actually. |
01:14.44 | dondelelcaro | PerfDave: It'd only be a 5-10 line shell script. |
01:14.46 | PerfDave | dondelelcaro: If it's so trivial, why isn't there a package to do this for me? |
01:14.53 | dondelelcaro | PerfDave: there is. It's called apt-build |
01:15.17 | phorce1 | disasm: radically different hardware. |
01:15.17 | disasm | PerfDave: because someone would have to right a new script for every single custom compiled program they wanted auto-updated. |

01:47.50 | dondelelcaro | ghc: yes, but there rarely is any point to that. |
01:47.53 | ghc | And if so, whats the best way of disabling the oss mixer emulation starting. |
01:48.00 | ghc | dondelelcaro: why not? |
01:48.01 | MajorPoopyPants | ghc - Ive never heard of that before - although i never even TRIED the oss mixer... |
01:48.17 | cafuego | WiFiTux: design and layout differences |
01:48.23 | cafuego | WiFiTux: 43C sn't that hot anyway |
01:48.25 | dondelelcaro | ghc: because you can just not use the oss mixer. |
01:48.37 | WiFiTux | cafuego, it is when it's below my palm. |
01:48.57 | WiFiTux | else I wouldn't care... |
01:48.58 | ghc | I'm asking because my gnome-volume-control applet thing is showing both mixers. And I'd prefer not to see both. |

03:43.11 | revvy` | Theres one time where I install the base system half way, it prompt me whether I want to use kernel 2.4.x or 2.6.x. But now whenever I tried to install again, it did not prompt me anymore. |
03:43.46 | cwood | wowie: Go install all the kde packages, and then look into running 'kdm' or having your '.xsession' or '.xinitrc' (read up on them) start kde for you instead of xfce4. |
03:44.04 | Guerin | revvy`: ssarge uses 2.4 by default. If you want to install with 2.6, run "linux26" at the boot prompt |
03:44.19 | wowie | cwood: so kdm is the thing i need to run |
03:44.20 | Guerin | revvy`: hif you've already installed wwith 2.4, it's trivial to upgrade though |

04:18.51 | MrPoopyPants | done |
04:18.52 | rich_ | MrPoopyPants I think it is the best there is. But if you're unaccustomed to the way people treat each other on irc, there is always mailing lists. |

04:19.27 | dondelelcaro | more like grep-available -s Package,Description -P dpkg; actually |

04:19.45 | MrPoopyPants | the time spent compiling cant be that bad, i'll start it then go to bed and wake up in the mroning and it will be done |

However, when I try to install php4 it wants to pull down apache (presumably apache 1.3).

05:12.29 | guestish | mwilson: just asked, its maintained, but not developed |
05:12.35 | kerpal23_ | looks like i didn't make it on the map |
05:12.46 | Crell42 | apache 1.3 has no development except security patches. |
05:13.04 | mwilson | Crell42: You realize that says absolutely nothing, considering how "stable" 2.6 is. |
05:13.18 | kingsley | Crell42: A bash script parsed the IRC log and edited it into "dot"'s graphing commands. |
05:13.26 | cthulfuego | hlp_me: Just enable ISA support and wireless networking support |
05:13.38 | Speedy2 | gah |
05:13.38 | guestish | 2.6 has features, not stability |
05:13.44 | Crell42 | kingsley: Funness. Just checks to see who used what prefixes on their names? |
05:13.46 | peterS | Crell42: the core of apache 1.3 has been stable for a long time. nothing stops people from developing new / improved modules for it even if the core maintainers have stopped enhancing it |
05:13.47 | guestish | its new, not proven |
05:13.51 | Speedy2 | when I do apt-get install libqt3-dev |
05:14.02 | Crell42 | Do new things work on apache 1.3, eg, subversion? |
05:14.02 | cthulfuego | That's not true, 2.6.3 has run stable on the production servers here for nigh on 9 months |
05:14.11 | guestish | cthulfuego: there are exceptions |
05:14.26 | cthulfuego | guestish: Like 2.4.18? |
05:14.41 | Speedy2 | It fails with this error: "dpkg : error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libxt6_4.3.0.dfsg.1-8-i386.deb (-unpack trying to overwrite '/usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6.0' which is also in package xlibs" |

05:20.16 | guestish | Agrajag-: probably written on the card |
05:20.18 | Crell42 | Hm. apache2 brings down apache2-mpm-worker. Installing PHP4 for apache2 wants to remove that and install the prefork version instead. |

05:21.29 | Agrajag- | if it's written on the card that'll make life a bit easier |

05:26.44 | kevix | cthulfuego, but sarge (in the near,near future) will be the stable. testing is testing. |
05:26.58 | cthulfuego | kevix: near? it was near in february |

05:27.12 | Crell42 | Sarge will be Stable Real Soon Now. :-) |
05:27.28 | kevix | cthulfuego, one can only dream! |
05:27.36 | rich_ | We are all very fortunate that sarge will probably be released in our lifetime |

05:27.52 | kevix | fusion, you are not suppose to! |

05:27.58 | zignig | rich_: there is a pool running isn't there ? |

05:28.17 | cthulfuego | fusion: Technically a downgrade |
05:28.31 | Speedy2 | Wow...and the damn thing worked! |
05:28.32 | fusion | err..but doesnt stable come afterwards? |
05:28.43 | stew | fusion: testing packages are newer packages than stable |
05:28.49 | killGetpid9 | stable > testing > unstable |
05:28.51 | cthulfuego | fusion: no, testing is pretty much always newer then stable. |
05:28.51 | Crell42 | fusion: No, Stable is the frozen for three years at a time version. |
05:29.01 | kevix | fusion, you are suppose to 'upgrade' by changing 'testing' to 'sarge' |
05:29.02 | stew | fusion: so going from testing to stable is getting older packages which would be "downgrade" |

05:44.20 | ElNoobostupido | wifi nice |
05:44.22 | rich_ | killGetpid9 so when you use ls -l on the file, it's owed by the user whio is trying to execute it, or some other user? Is there x 's in the permission line? |

05:48.15 | dark_light | why the debian do not have i686 packages, only i386? will debian some day include the i686 architeture in all packages? |
05:48.23 | rich_ | One of the worst |
05:48.26 | nite613 | whatever: It can, yes. The interfaces file is just used to generate ifconfig and route commands at network start. the 'ip' tool from iproute2 generally replaces the route command |
05:48.36 | Agrajag- | i can't figure out how to get the original .htaccess from the most recent phpmyadmin (i selected to keep my old file when it upgraded) - is this possible without uninstalling/installing again? |

06:18.10 | cthulfuego | hlp_me: For small single-files compiles, make automagically sets exec perms. Saves a step, less typing. |

06:25.32 | cthulfuego | jake: apt-cache show <package> |
06:25.51 | guestish | hlp_me: um...the definition of a compiler is to produce executable output... |
06:25.55 | guestish | iirc |
06:25.57 | guestish | !compiler |
06:25.57 | dpkg | hmm... compiler is A compiler translates a computer program from one language into another, catching any errors in syntax along the way. Most commonly, you translate some high level language, such as Haskell or C, into optimized machine language. This form of compilation puts your programs into a form that your computer can understand without any translation, thus speeding them up. |

07:10.26 | Guerin | !tell Speedy2 about essentially debian |
07:10.31 | rich_ | Guerin probably. He wore glasses :) |

07:11.33 | Guerin | kerpal23_: I feel your pain. |
07:11.46 | jm_ | Speedy2: I wouldn't know - get it from Debian mirrors and try istalling it |
07:11.56 | kevix | Abercrombie, testing goes from 'near unstable to near stable'. now it is 'near stable' |
07:12.08 | takatumi | Abercrombie: check packages.debian.org |
07:12.23 | Guerin | Abercrombie: it's 10 days behind unstable, disregarding the fact that if a package in unstable has serious bugs, it won't filter down into testing |
07:12.36 | Abercrombie | stable, testing, sid ... i rather run all 3 combined some things of each you know ? |
07:12.40 | kerpal23_ | I think im sick of computers.. maybe i will gointo bottonany or something. |
07:12.46 | takatumi | Abercrombie: bad idea |
07:12.48 | Guerin | Abercrombie: no, you don't want to do that AT ALL. |
07:12.49 | kevix | Abercrombie, if you need SOME packages that are more up to date, folks use 'backports'. |

07:17.07 | directhex | takatumi, yeah, but i still have a slow-ass desktop machine. largely because the machine i have my sights set on, a spare dual itanium 2, is too damned heavy to carry to the office |

11:47.14 | Quag7 | I have a somewhat fresh Debian Sarge install. I'm sort of new to Debian as a desktop system and to Sarge, completely. I notice the install makes a kernel that loads basically everything as modules depending on pnp. One module is loading that I don't want modded; I want to modprobe it manually - is there an easy way to tell the system not to modprobe it, or should I just do an rmmod at startup to remove it? |

12:19.51 | rdancer_ | there are many options to security, and it's noone else's business to dictate what my security policy should be (and that's the reason /watis rdancer reads ~root@... (well, dash-censored, because of the stupid irc ops). |
12:20.32 | zu22 | rdancer: yes but why invite lamers to attack your ip(s) by having nick of ~root? |
12:20.40 | jgrau | jethro so you mount a nfs device i would to mount -t nfs then? |
12:21.04 | rdancer_ | scarynetworkguy: the particular freesbie setup is stupid, as you typically *do* have some access rights to your harddisk and stuff, when using it. but in general, with just the cd-r as a media, it's reasonable. |
12:21.08 | jethro | jgrau: ya |
