03:09.54 | abrotman | or flow from sid ? |
03:09.57 | Serinity | Allright, I now got VERY tired of firefox that keeps on crashing, it's worse than internet explorer !!!! Any suggestion for something else ? |
03:10.00 | stew | cheal: testing has had 4 updates since sarge released and all of them have been superceded by newer versions from unstable |
03:10.02 | cheal | dondelelcaro: as abrotman says |
03:10.23 | dondelelcaro | abrotman: right; I'm just talking about how they can go direct. |
03:10.28 | abrotman | ah ok |
03:10.41 | sgeigerbot | Am 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. |
03:10.42 | dondelelcaro | (well, semi-direct; it's possible to also upload to testing-updates, but that queue almost never gets processed) |
03:10.56 | sgeigerbot | I guess there's nohup...but I wanted screen. |
03:11.07 | servus | sgeigerbot: Often you can do gaim -screen :1 |
03:11.24 | sgeigerbot | servus: I don't think you understand. |
03:11.25 | servus | sgeigerbot: Or you can try setting the SCREEN environment variable |
03:11.30 | cheal | stew: 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 |
03:11.52 | sgeigerbot | servus: I want to run command-line commands. |
03:12.06 | stew | cheal: are there issues affecting any of the releases that you think i'm overlooking? |
03:12.26 | sgeigerbot | servus: do you know about /usr/bin/screen? It doesn't sound as if you do. |
03:12.36 | dondelelcaro | sgeigerbot: screen -dm -s foo; should do something like that. |
03:12.51 | servus | I'm running "screen" right now. |

10:44.43 | liable | i am sure if it has 16G of ram, it would be able to spare 4G for swap without breaking the budget |
10:45.43 | sep | ghenry, 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 :) |
10:45.44 | ghenry | tralala, 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. |

13:20.58 | dpkg | methinks wow is a word begging with a 'w', then an 'o'. It ends with a 'w'. This means that it is reversible. It is a useful word for situations in which you wish to imply a feeling of general wow-ness. Best used in brackets following some other statement, like this: Debian is the best linux distro (wow). Also combine with exclamation marks for added wow-ity factor. (wow!!!) :) |

16:39.34 | SerajewelKS | appelza: 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. |
16:39.54 | SerajewelKS | appelza: a dependency says that "this package needs this package to work, but not to install itself" |

22:25.29 | SammyTheSnake | swim: 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 |

22:28.01 | SammyTheSnake | swim: 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 |

22:28.19 | swim | ah, though not in this case :( |
22:28.25 | JordiGH | Ack, why can't I mount a smbfs with the right permissions? :-( |
22:28.58 | SammyTheSnake | swim: 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 |

22:29.30 | SammyTheSnake | swim: 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 :) |
22:29.58 | jelly-ho | SammyTheSnake: (Re: ... use the same pkg info). |

23:37.38 | amahbod | abrotman i dont know what that means then -_- |
23:37.47 | abrotman | amahbod: IMPS/2 or what? |
23:37.49 | amahbod | ohhh |
23:37.51 | dbe | jelly-ho, so I point at the file ok |
23:37.54 | amahbod | PS/2 |

23:39.12 | abrotman | thingfish: asg wants someone to organize a #debian-conf :) |
23:39.37 | Fluten | stew, could it be the wireless card? i once in a while get "receive_packet failed on wlan0: Network is down" when running dhclient. |
23:39.38 | thingfish | abrotman: what's supposed to happen with #debian-conf? |
23:39.46 | jelly-ho | dbe: 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. |
23:39.51 | abrotman | thingfish: i have no idea .. all i can imagine is an extended bartour |
23:39.59 | thingfish | hehe yay! |
23:40.02 | stew | Fluten: no |
23:40.04 | abrotman | thingfish: PHILLY! |
23:40.05 | Fluten | stew, but i dont see why i would lose my route information just from the wifi card fluking for a second |
23:40.27 | stew | amahbod: try using hte Explorer/PS2 protocol instead of ImPS/2 |
23:40.28 | amahbod | stew what is explorer? |
23:40.35 | amahbod | Stew thanks |

23:42.18 | PovAddict | gets confusing |
23:42.19 | Rug | I have a debian firewall. In /etc/network/interfaces should the line read: gatewaydev=ppp0 _or_ gatewaydev ppp0 ????? |
23:42.31 | jelly-ho | dbe: to get a public key from a keyserver use eg. "gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys D3ADB33F", where D3ADB33F is the key id that "gpg file.sig" complained about. |
23:42.32 | jjazz | abrotman: I suppose we could all join #debian-conf... |
23:42.47 | onetinsoldier | amahbod: i'm not sure... but you can try, exps2 |
23:42.51 | stew | amahbod: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ; ExplorerPS/2 will be one of the choices |

23:43.55 | stew | ^^^ that is what i was trying to address, are you talking about somehting else now? |
23:44.51 | Fluten | stew, sorry if i confused you, i probably shouldnt of also mentioned that. the main thing i'm talking about is the route settings disappearing on my wifi laptop every few minutes |
23:44.58 | dbe | jelly-ho, thanks again |
23:45.06 | amahbod | stew it still doesnt work |
23:45.19 | onetinsoldier | anyone think they can help me get a gamepad working? i mknod the device files(which get erased on a reboot) and modprobe the modules but no luck so far. i am using etch so i guess it's supposed to be recognized on bootup automatically anyway, but i don't know what to try at this point as i am pretty sure i have every module that is needed compiled into my kernel configuration |
23:45.20 | amahbod | stew i figured out that it bound middle click to the x axis |
23:45.28 | amahbod | is there any way to custom-bind my mouse |
23:45.32 | thingfish | abrotman: yes I do - some of them are even still alive! |
23:45.58 | abrotman | thingfish: guess they haven't been in my car while i'm driving |
23:46.04 | thingfish | hehe |
23:46.04 | stoned | amahbod, yes there is, the button mappings are controlled through x's conf |
23:46.17 | Fluten | stew, maybe it was the card, the settings havnt gone away for a while |
23:46.19 | thingfish | abrotman: same here, if you listen to my partner. |
23:46.27 | stoned | partner ;) |
23:46.29 | nefertum | stew: when i list the orphaned packages, how can I remove them |
23:46.37 | stoned | thingfish, I've got one of them |
23:46.45 | nefertum | must I select all and remove with apt-get remove? |
23:46.50 | stew | !deborphan |
23:46.51 | dpkg | deborphan is a package that will tell you what library packages you have installed that nothing's using. If you want remove all packages use 'deborphan | xargs apt-get -y remove --purge' |
23:46.53 | thingfish | I guess they keep us in line. |
23:46.59 | stoned | nefertum, apt-get --purge remove `deborphan` |
23:47.09 | nefertum | mm, thanks stoned |
23:47.17 | stoned | nefertum, you're welcome |
23:47.35 | PovAddict | or use aptitude :) - removes and _ purges |
23:48.33 | stoned | aptitude has what debfoster used to |
23:48.35 | stoned | not in sarge |
23:48.48 | amahbod | does anyone know how i can manually set my x and y axis for my mouse? |
23:48.48 | stoned | but I like deborphan more, its cleaner |
23:48.49 | abrotman | thingfish: doesn't like your S2000 eh? |

23:49.38 | stoned | amahbod, look at the input device section |
23:50.07 | stoned | amahbod, I am not certain. There is a Z axis mapping, follow the same syntax for X.Y |
23:50.15 | jelly-ho | stoned: but deborphan only trims edges. debfoster kills everything you don't keep explicitely. |
23:50.18 | amahbod | stoned lol. thats what i figured too but it isnt working |
