00:02.55Vasisthavars: first I should tell you that... ubuntu is really substantially different from debian in a lot of ways, we may not be able to help you very much in here. You might be better off in #ubuntu
00:02.56olloI have installed the driver of nvidia
00:03.13ollobut when I have updated the kernel I get back to vesa driver
00:03.33giorgianhi, i have a sony cybershot dsc-s600 camera, which seems to be supported by gphoto2, but gphoto2 says: Error (-1: 'Unspecified
00:03.33giorgianerror'). maybe i need to load some kernel modules?
00:03.55Marsmenschvars: use the nvidia-glx drivers
00:04.00olloanyway in both configuration I could not to resize my desktop view...are there any tools to get the right size??
00:04.02giorgiani've searched everywhere on google, but found nothing
00:04.13Vasisthazarathustra: that problem doesn't sound too good!  Do you have a bootable rescue disk or anything to check and see if the partition is readable by another linux OS?
00:04.43Marsmenschsorry i was wrong, forget it
00:05.24Vasisthaollo: I think Marsmensch meant to tell YOU to use the nvidia-glx drivers ... it ought to be possible to get the right desktop resolution.  Do you know if you are running XFree or X.org?
00:05.31varsVasistha, here is what i need to do sasp, and i will do anything that i can to do it i need to turn my laptop into a server that will host a website     all i have are ubuntu install disk   i have no burner

00:11.38Vasisthavars: if I were you I would definitely download and burn a debian stable (sarge) CD, and install that.

00:13.25_ericbI'm thinking about 2 solutions : 1- setup 2 partitionsin raid 1 to enshure redundancy, 2- setup hourly backups from a partition to the other.  I've heard a lot of people reporting raid 1 isn't really effective since if both drive are from the same lot, are given the same workload to do, they will probably die at same time.
00:13.33varsAndon, can i do that from featherlinux

00:20.38VasisthaZweideutig:  Johnny_5:  if you go to packages.debian.org you can see that both of those packages are available.
00:20.52abrotman!flash
00:20.52dpkgi heard flash is If you want the flashplayer browser plugin, go to http://www.flash.com and follow the instructions there. Or look at the flashplugin-nonfree package, or most flash crap you see is from banner ads, and very little of it actual real and potentially interesting content. get yourself some object blocking/filtering extensions in your favourite browser, or missing fonts? install gsfonts-x11
00:20.58abrotman!non-free
00:20.58dpkgnon-free is always "evil". It has its place in the world, but most Debianistas would rather not use it. Any software not meeting this definition: http://www.debian.org/social_contract#guidelines is in there or contrib, or #debian-nonfree and http://nonfree.alioth.debian.org/, or if you MUST, add 'contrib non-free' to the end of a sources.list line, or http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/categories.html Also ask me about "vrms"
00:21.01ZweideutigYeah, I see that.
00:21.16amathes_or you can always try one of these: sudo apt-cache search mstt
00:21.17Zweideutigdpkg: Nothing is free. There is no such thing as free.
00:21.18dpkg...but nothing is already something else...
00:22.00ZweideutigEven opensource software isn't free. Someone else is paying for it.
00:22.27Coweater!free
00:22.27dpkgsomebody said free was defined in English with many different meanings of which only one refers to cost.  easier in french, or 'free beer' = gratuit 'free speech' = libre, or http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/categories.html, or free (procps) tells you how much memory is used/wasted ("Mem:"), and how much is being necessarily used/could be freed ("-/+ buffers/cache:")
00:22.28VasisthaZweideutig: Johnny_5:  as dpkg said, if you must, you can add 'contrib non-free' after 'main' in /etc/apt/sources.list
00:22.44SupaplexZweideutig: dpkg is a bot. and free software is free TO YOU. none of this other nonsense.
00:23.02stewZweideutig: in this channel "free" refers to freedom as defined in the dfsg (/msg dpkg dfsg)
00:23.12Johnny_5i use sarge
00:23.28VasisthaJohnny_5: yeah, me too, that's why I know these instructions will work for you ;-)
00:23.40ZweideutigOh, dpkg is a bot.

03:09.16SerinityHi everyone :)
03:09.40dondelelcarocheal: unstable fixes just get uploaded; testing fixes go into testing security.
03:09.54abrotmanor flow from sid ?
03:09.57SerinityAllright, I now got VERY tired of firefox that keeps on crashing, it's worse than internet explorer !!!! Any suggestion for something else ?
03:10.00stewcheal: testing has had 4 updates since sarge released and all of them have been superceded by newer versions from unstable
03:10.02chealdondelelcaro: as abrotman says
03:10.23dondelelcaroabrotman: right; I'm just talking about how they can go direct.
03:10.28abrotmanah ok
03:10.41sgeigerbotAm I dreaming, or is there a way to specify on the command line a command to run in screen such that a screen process will be created but you will not be inside it?  For example, "screen /tmp/goo" (or something like that) would run /tmp/goo inside of screen.  You could, say, run that from a script.  Anyone have ideas on a way to do something similar?  It doesn't have to be screen.
03:10.42dondelelcaro(well, semi-direct; it's possible to also upload to testing-updates, but that queue almost never gets processed)
03:10.56sgeigerbotI guess there's nohup...but I wanted screen.
03:11.07servussgeigerbot:  Often you can do gaim -screen :1
03:11.24sgeigerbotservus: I don't think you understand.
03:11.25servussgeigerbot:  Or you can try setting the SCREEN environment variable
03:11.30chealstew: anyway, what I find more strange is that I don't see much relation between security updates and the most important breakages in each release
03:11.52sgeigerbotservus: I want to run command-line commands.
03:12.06stewcheal: are there issues affecting any of the releases that you think i'm overlooking?
03:12.26sgeigerbotservus: do you know about /usr/bin/screen?  It doesn't sound as if you do.
03:12.36dondelelcarosgeigerbot: screen -dm -s foo; should do something like that.
03:12.51servusI'm running "screen" right now.

05:20.00Supaplexzu22, there was a publicitaion for sarge, like an install/upgrade guide that pointed out the gotchas, and how to navigate around them.  I'd check into that.  It'll save you some grief.
05:20.02chealzu22: don't try upgrading your libc6 to testing yet. first finish upgrading to stable
05:20.05shogunxcheal.  seems the easiest way around it to me.  ok... perhaps a dpkg -i --force-all kernel-image-something-or-other.

05:22.53zu22is there anyway i can get a 2.4 kernel running without downgrading all my packages to stable? i am on dialup and don't wanna blow another 3 days of downloads on this
05:23.02chealzu22: well, the only supported upgrade path from x to > x+1 is x->x+1 && x+1 -> rest of the upgrade path. of course, there would be more bandwidth-efficient ways to do it, but you'd rather have that done by someone skilled. I'm not sure if it's reasonable for #debian to provide that skill
05:23.39chealshogunx: yes, but why build that kernel?
05:23.48sepzu22, you might get away with booting a lived + chroot+ apt-get ing a 2.6 kernel in your chroot
05:23.49zu22shogunx: can i download a 2.4 kernel .deb and force-overwrite install it? or can i build kernel without libc6-dev? or can i force-overwrite install an old .deb of libc6-dev from sarge?

05:24.23chealzu22: if you want to try it, the first step seems to install a >= 2.4.1 Linux image
05:24.26stewzu22: why would installing a 2.4 kernel require anything to be overwritten?
05:24.31shogunxcheal  if apt or dpkg wont allow it, then what other option is there?  probably comes from my building kernels for every box i have, also.
05:24.44zu22sep: oh i never did chroot before how can i do that? i have a knoppix livecd

05:59.26chealnackpattywak: FYI, there are gaim 2 betas in experimental
06:00.07zu22should "dpkg-reconfigure gnome" or "dpkg-reconfigure xfree86-xserver" to make it use a window manager?

06:38.50zethrethexcuse me, I'm trying to sync up with a pda running a bare kernel and busybox tools. It's native environment is WinCE and I am able to sync up to it's serial with synce. The thing I'm having trouble finding out is how I'm to allow access from this pda through my pppd. Right now it tells me that the remote system is required to authenticate itself. I'm assuming this means there nothing in place for it the make the connection.

06:41.31tralalastreuner: plus I think that anybody who's good enough at compiling stuff will figure out the idea of backporting on his own. I was speaking of diy backporting and not the backports.
06:42.07Supaplexbut diy backports is so fun.  It's how I learned so much in debain :)

10:44.37tralalaWell, it is important to have it then. The customers have to be kept happy.
10:44.43liablei am sure if it has 16G of ram, it would be able to spare 4G for swap without breaking the budget
10:45.43sepghenry, some swap would be useful to swap out init and things not used except boot adn shutdown, and free that memory atleast. but i dont think you'd notice a difference in 256MB and 4GB of swap :)
10:45.44ghenrytralala, liable: Yup. Our reasoning, is if for some reason 16GB gets used up and starts to swap, there's a small window to shut/restart services/server, with out it, the kernel would just die/freeze.

12:13.55tralalaKnight_Lord: there is ps2ascii which dumps ps files. Check if it can dump pdfs as well.
12:14.01Caciousrandall: the given package by macromedia is not being compatible with the 64 bit pc`s
12:14.04linux_manjuRvGaTe, with some iptables tricks ;)

12:14.37tralalaRvGaTe: yes, you will only need iptables for that.
12:14.45randallSince flash is closed-source, I guess theres nothing to do ... except for running a 32bit environment
12:14.46RvGaTebut that all uses the ssh interface, is there something to really simulate a router, with a webbased interface, vpn etc... just like www.ipcop.org
12:14.58Knight_Lordtralala i was searching for a prebuilt thing, of course i can pdf2ps and ps2ascii and then grep, but that's not exactly elegant
12:15.43linux_manjuRvGaTe, freesco.org
12:15.53tralalaCacious: read the amd64 howto. It explains how to use 32bit chroot. Install a browser there and a 32bit flash plugin and that's it.
12:15.54randallRvGaTe: errr ... well, yes, debian has vpn servers and web servers
12:15.54linux_manjuRvGaTe, looks great :)

15:36.26mc__!tell DJGummikuh  about guidelines
15:36.31marco13185Forwarding X11 with sshd means that when a client connects, they can use X?
15:36.34DJGummikuhis there any system for that or do I have to do it by hand like in gentoo?
15:36.43jairguys I have at my company the port 22 open and I can send stuff and connect through ssh from inside to outside
15:36.53chealDJGummikuh: you tell your bootloader to boot it, once it's installed

15:36.56quitteDJGummikuh: it should already be in the grub menu after installing

16:19.15HelmutGHi. Can someone help me debug firefox from unstable? After changing some configuration options and restarting it it doesn't start anymore. Even moving .mozilla out of the way and running it with -safe-mode does not cure the problem. firefox seems to enter some kind of event loop before drawing the window. I did not recently (within 48h) upgrade. Any suggestions?
16:19.56HelmutGPlease do not tell me to go to #firefox on irc.mozilla.org as they sent me here. :-)

16:39.34dmI tried to copy all files from an NTFS partition to an ext3 yesterday: cp -a /mnt/ntfs/* /mnt/ext3/  --  30 of the 38 GB were copied in the estimated time. Then the process was markes as state DN in ps, the system load is 1.00 1.00 1.00 since then.
16:39.34SerajewelKSappelza: another way of saying this is that exim4-daemon-light depends on exim4-base, that is, they must be install at the same time -- but not necessarily one before the other.
16:39.54SerajewelKSappelza: a dependency says that "this package needs this package to work, but not to install itself"
16:39.56pbryanfrank234: module-assistant helps build modules from source packages such as eagle-usb-source, and goes and fetches all of the compile-time dependencies needed to build them.

18:02.35nicolas_i have a usb gamepad of cheap brand and i wonder why the driver detects it has 6 direction joysticks, but the only one the gamepad physically has appears to be the third one, i found this by running jscal -c and was unable to calibrate the 2 first directions joystick it asked, and as a weird result of this, xmms joystick plugins doesnt support my directions but zsnes does, can anyone give me a brief explanation for this ?

22:25.29SammyTheSnakeswim: gnome-* packages generally all depend on similar stuff, if you've installed any other gnome packages, you'll probably find they depend on the stuff that aptitude installed when you installed gnome-multi-terminal
22:26.03JordiGHdinooo: It's rather pointless to ask for a "good mirror". That depends on your geographical location. Browse the list at http://www.debian.org/mirror/list
22:26.23swimSammyTheSnake, not in this case, I just installed multi-gnome-terminal and it installed a bunch of deps, and I installed nothgin else... so those deps were for that app only
22:26.35yerethSammyTheSnake, onetinsoldier, bztunk: hdc: rw=0, want=3097008, limit=1141680
22:26.42yerethwhat does that mean?

22:27.06SammyTheSnakeyereth: *shrug* I'm not a grub guru, sorry
22:27.08swimSammyTheSnake, perhaps I had to have installed the app with aptitude first? I had installed it with apt-get install...

22:27.51onetinsoldieryereth: i have no idea what want=  does... i have heard of  limit=
22:28.01SammyTheSnakeswim: aptitude and apt-get both use the same package information, they can take eachother's place trivially, it's just that aptitude does extra clever stuff like uninstall dependencies :p
22:28.11JordiGHjelly-ho: Well, I hope it works out...
22:28.19swimah, though not in this case :(
22:28.25JordiGHAck, why can't I mount a smbfs with the right permissions? :-(
22:28.58SammyTheSnakeswim: there's a program called (if I recall correctly) deborphan which will list all packages that are not depended on, maybe use that to find the packages you can uninstall safely

22:29.11swimoh thats right I rememeber that SammyTheSnake
22:29.15jelly-hoSammyTheSnake: not likely. aptitude builds another database and keeps track of automatically installed packages, which apt-get does not know anything about.
22:29.30SammyTheSnakeswim: by default it lists only libraries, but you can also set it to report all programs that aren't depended on. That tends to list nearly everything, though :)
22:29.58jelly-hoSammyTheSnake: (Re: ... use the same pkg info).
22:30.01SammyTheSnakejelly-ho: ah, I wasn't aware of that, so packages installed with apt-get won't have had that extra information stored, then, I guess...

22:32.18JordiGHSammyTheSnake: I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. That bit currently reads as  rw,username=r,password=r,umask=000,gid=users
22:32.23swimdoes anyone happen to use "Listen" on etch?
22:32.52SammyTheSnakejelly-ho: I've not had any problems, but then I've not been relying on the automatic uninstall, I have 400GB of space and I'm not all that fussed if I have a few spare libraries around :p
22:32.53JordiGHSammyTheSnake: But the file permissions look like drwxr-xr-x  1 root users or
22:33.01JordiGH-rwxr-xr-x  1 root users

23:36.37VasisthaDuelist: do you feel like chatting in #offtopic ?
23:36.38jelly-hodbe: .sig file goes together with another file.  Like linux-2.6.16.tar.gz and linux-2.6.16.tar.gz.sign, .sign is used to verify that the actual archive/iso image/whatever is authentic.
23:36.44DuelistVasistha: sure

23:39.38thingfishabrotman: what's supposed to happen with #debian-conf?
23:39.46jelly-hodbe: if you have eg. foo.iso and foo.iso.sig in the same directory, and do "gpg foo.iso.sig", gpg should know what is the data file.  If it's called differently, then you get the prompt for the data file like you did.
