00:00.09NyleAzar: well, I am packaging the engine, I was gonna give you some control files and was wondering if you could build the large data/graphics packs and upload them, as I have near dialup speed
00:00.20NyleAzar: you won't be compiling any software

00:05.57dutche-I made an upgrade of libc6 and libc6-dev here, and now when I run any command, it says me that there's no libc.so.6, when I run "ls" command it says that librt.so.1 does not exist....what can I do now?? I can log in single mode...and the commands runs
00:06.17NyleAzar: total throughput?
00:06.24Nylecombined bw or what?
00:06.27Guerindutche-: why did you upgrade those packages?
00:06.27AzarNyle: never bothered to measure
00:06.35moshiidutche-: if libc is broken you need to use builtins or something to fix it
00:06.39Guerindutche-: and by what means?
00:06.44AzarNyle: each individual for my 3 PCs
00:06.57NyleAzar: how many people live with you
00:07.03AzarNyle: 3 cats
00:07.06Nyleoh
00:07.23moshiiAzar: They cats are computer litter-ate?

00:08.10dutche-moshii, I need to use builtins?? how can I do that? which builtins yar talking about
00:08.15Nylelol
00:08.15AzarI sleep in the living on the couch anyways..
00:08.18Guerindutche-: it sounds like you installed them from outside your current distro, which is a surefiore road to breakage.

00:09.32moshiiNyle: If you have 3 cats you don't need women
00:09.38mark6does anyone use kplaylist?
00:09.48Nyleoh boy
00:09.58p1l6r1mi must desagree
00:10.00Azarmoshii: you aren't too clever: women love cats, that's the catch
00:10.01nivansonDuring kernel upgrade with apt /boot/grub/menu.lst is rebuilt with new kernel entries. If I modify this file (setting up so booting from both of my software raid drives is possible) will it still rebuild automatically? If not, could it be solved by storing a copy of the original menu.lst and put it back before eventual kernel upgrades?
00:10.08Nyledude
00:10.12NyleI dunno bout you
00:10.16Nylebut I NEED women
00:10.17dutche-Guerin, so, if I enter in single mode and do an aptitude upgrade....it *should* fix that, right?

00:10.34moshiiAzar: man, I gave my cat away and moved country for a woman! *cries*
00:10.44Guerindutche-: it probably won't even run, because the debian tools are dynamically linked against libc
00:10.54Guerindutche-: you may well have to reinstall.
00:10.55NyleI need a woman to live with me and take care of me, and also code for me hopefuly

00:13.07wireyeah, I did too. I think I am at about the same place you are. except I am trying to make an access point with it
00:13.08Azar_moro_bana_: startx, and if it does not work is because you need the video driver, and xserver installed
00:13.18Bambrwire :)

00:13.36wireBambr: unsuccessfully though
00:13.50Nylekhanman_: pity
00:14.02moshiidutche-: use a livecd or something to boot the system and put the correct libc files into the system manually... then boot into the real system and reinstall libc6 properly

00:20.38Nylegnome is ugly. horrible dialoge design, gtk2 themes are set in stone and color schemes can't be modified... desktop isn't as configurable as KDE, and its a lot less responsive than KDE as well

Just ask. 3) Don't repeat; show that you have tried to help yourself by refining the question. 4) Reading docs (man/info pages, READMEs) is a worthwhile skill. Practice it. 5) Use /msg to talk to the bots (not the people). See <msg>. 6) Be polite and patient. 7) Paste on #flood or <paster>, not here. 8) No trolls or spam.

00:46.32IronManMarionow it's saying hda2 doesnt exist

03:06.30Obligatoryh3xis, odd, not in my log.  I said checking the client was inconclusive, since the first point of failure was the server.  Re systems: client, Debian unstable, server knoppix.
03:07.03ObligatorySynZ, what you said "MiniPCI Adapter III", you mean you have a wireless card plugged in that, right?

03:07.40h3xisObligatory, how do you know the server is the point of failure? it's possible your client(s) could not be configured correctly
03:07.55ObligatorySynZ, so you have TWO wireless cards in one laptop, yes?
03:08.02SynZYes
03:08.16Nylecheetahj25: I'm back
03:08.25Obligatoryh3xis, exactly.  The server seems like the logical first point of failure, no?
03:08.34SynZOne that is Built-in to the Laptop and another one in the Slot.
03:09.33h3xisObligatory, right. apparently youve done everything you can to ensure that it is not the problem. the next logical step is to check the clients
03:09.33SynZh3xis, it has not got Internet on it to be able to reach that website to paste it for you.

05:11.34dpkgmadwifi is a driver for wireless devices with an Atheros chipset.  More information at http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/Distro/Debian.  To install madwifi drivers built against Debian stock kernels, ask me about <madwifi-install>.  No USB devices are supported.  NOT for AR5007UG (aka AR2624/AR5524) chipsets, ask me about <zd1211rw> instead.  http://madwifi.org/wiki/Support, #madwifi @ irc.freenode.net
05:11.49Nyle!madwifi-install
05:11.49dpkgmethinks madwifi-install is ask me about <contrib> and <non-free sources>, then as root: "apt-get update && apt-get install madwifi-tools module-assistant && m-a prepare && m-a a-i madwifi && modprobe ath_pci".  You should now have madwifi installed.  Note: Atheros = ath0, NOT eth0.

05:13.02penpwhen etch came out, amd64 just wasn't ready yet..and im sure it will be by next stable

08:43.19liable!drxx Erik1
08:43.19dpkgErik1: To reconfigure your X server, run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg as root. If you're not using Xorg (sarge or earlier), dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86, and ask me about xmd5sum if you've changed XF86Config-4 yourself.
08:43.48MiescoHow active is debian, is it a long time before distro releases?

12:34.58StrangeCharm_<PROTECTED>
12:34.58StrangeCharm_hen rebooted. once i got to the partitioner, i marked my disks for partitions necessary to make the above, but when i go in to configure software raid, i don't find all of the partitions that i marked as being available for raid actually being available. if i go to delete multidisk devices, i find 'md1', ':', inactive', 'sdb1 [2]', and 'mdo_raid5', none of which i can delete. the only one of these that appears to have any component devices is md0_
12:35.03StrangeCharm_raid5 which had three of my 300gb paritions on it, however, when i return to the main partitioning menu, i find raid5 device #0 with 900gb of free space on it. what on earth is going on?

14:58.10RamattackHi mates
14:58.17Ramattackone very easy question
14:58.22abrotmanhow easy?
14:58.28the_sniffsimonrvn: it has as many visitors on right now, why would i want to limit them :S
14:58.46abrotmanthe_sniff: so limit the available apache children ?
14:59.03the_sniffwhat would that do?
14:59.05abrotmanthe_sniff: paste the output of 'free'
14:59.07Ramattackwell as easy I though I got the answer by myself lol, my answer is one debian box has a number of maximum file descriptors and it sets limits per user
14:59.27the_sniffabrotman: http://rafb.net/p/GEktyD70.html
14:59.28simonrvnwell, you do something about it or quit bitching about it. simple.
14:59.36chopsthe_sniff: If you don't have any memory-hungry modules that you don't need, then you may just have to limit the number of children or get more memory.
14:59.38Ramattackand the reason because it doesn't give you more file descriptors is for avoiding DOS of you're self to you're own machine
14:59.41Ramattackam I wrong?
15:00.05the_sniffchops: it's goind to have 2 gbs of ram installed today afaik
15:00.06chopsthe_sniff: It'll be better to make the web-serving slightly slow by limiting the number of children to a manageable number than to make it massively slow by letting the server start thrashing.
15:00.11simonrvnRamattack: that's normal. set the limit higher if needed
15:00.12chopsthe_sniff: Ah, that'll help :-)
15:00.26the_sniffbut untill then i can't have it dead p:

15:00.30abrotmanthe_sniff: how much does it have now? and which kernel?
15:00.39the_sniffwhat would limiting the children do, just increase the wait time?
15:00.40Ramattacksimonrvn, and won't be problems with debian packages? they¡re compiled to support the maximum file descriptors for a standard debian kernel can support?

15:05.01jellyRamattack: that's a question for software authors
15:05.04Ramattackthen why it could work not as expected?
15:05.32the_sniffwow the server's dead
15:05.35Ramattacksimonrvn, I know it's not a proper question or normal but imagine you compile a package with some options that enforce you to increase the default limit...

16:30.26dpkgsomebody said rc.local was /etc/rc.local is a script called by /etc/init.d/rc.local which is typically one of the last things to be run during the boot sequence.  if you have commands you want run at boot, edit /etc/rc.local (don't touch /etc/init.d/rc.local).  rc.local is considered a hack,  consider writing a real init script (ask me about <init.d>).
16:30.28chopsthesuliban1980: I could easily see leap seconds not working in the date libraries... I would call that a minor bug myself.
16:30.37Kithylinthere see if that went through

16:30.58themillthesuliban1980: date can certainly output dates in leap seconds. Not sure about setting time through it though.
16:31.00SupaplexI think it's a tty issue
16:31.02chopsthesuliban1980: That said, on a real system the system clock drift will dwarf any effect of leap seconds, and any leap second error will be corrected by ntp if they're not handled properly.

16:46.39Almindorchops, yes
16:46.57Almindorchops, but it's not easily buildable
16:47.45chopsAlmindor: I would advise trying to get it into the archives as the easiest way of packaging it for Debian (repeating for other Linux distros is an exercise left for the reader...)
16:47.46Almindorminimal older debian, minimal older rpm-distro and possibly freeBSD 5.x

16:49.00chopsAlmindor: I don't think there's a useful middle ground between that and shipping source which can be compiled locally by end-users or placed in the vendor's archive
16:49.13Almindorit can be compiled by users
16:49.15Almindorbut not by machines
16:49.20chopsAlmindor: Just my (probably unpopular) opinion...
16:49.37Almindor(eg: requires to actually compile in an IDE)
16:49.59chopsAlmindor: Well, that's your problem right there.  If it's a Linux executable, it really should be automatically buildable.
16:50.06Almindorthere's "build" tool for it but it's bleeding edge so far, so they can't get it other than by source too etc.
16:50.11chopsAlmindor: (ideally by make)
16:50.30Almindorit WOULD be but the IDE which was used for it doesn't separate it's lib parts yet
16:50.41Almindorso you simply need to get the whole IDE to make it anyhow

19:34.28sparrwit seems that it does, literally, depend on it
19:34.31Nyleif something if forced down your throat through the installer, then obviously the popcon stats won't matter for tasksel
19:34.41jetscreamerthe installer comes up with tasksel
19:34.48sparrwNyle: yes, but the installer doesnt force sudo, thats my point

I've used it in the past; and a quick through google confirms my suspicions; by using a fontserver, you're basically bypassing the xserver's own glyph rendering pipeline - it's getting bitmaps from the fontserver; so this is going to lose in both the uncached case (bandwidth hungry) as well as the libxft2-enabled-client case (ie, most Qt/Gtk apps these days)
19:46.13xingusepski: libxft2 will talk to Render - and for some of us, that means gpu-side rendering of glyphs.

20:05.17sevardHey guys.  I'm a fairly seasoned slackware linux user (about 10 years) but a new client of mine wants me to install some debian servers.  I have no problems getting to know a new distro but as a slackware user don't like the fluff too much.  Would it be advised for a server setup to just go with the disc 1 of the etch install, and aptget the reset of my server applications? (iptables, openvpn, apache w/mod_php, etc)

20:06.03fengoryes sevard, jsut get the netinstall and do a baseisntall then get the rest via apt-get or aptitude
20:06.17Heavy-DHey everybody, Could you let me know what Kernel is used in Etch 4.0r2 ? It'd be much appreciated.
20:06.28hoxusevard, or netinstaller, just skip the tasksel part (install packages by hand using apt-get/aptitude)
20:06.33*** join/#debian IgorVS (n=IgorVS@60.138.pppoe.mari-el.ru)
20:06.57Guerinsevard: be careful not to fall back on your slackware habits, though - especially for packages and installation, if you don't like how something is in debian, you can't just go randomly compiling and installing shit with impunity. You need to make it work via apt.
20:07.06sevardNow that's what I was spinning on, I couldn't find list of applications included in the disc1 or the netinstall, or if there is even a major difference/advantage between the two.
20:07.13Guerinit might seem a pain in the arse, but it's worth it in the long run
20:07.37hoxusevard, netinstaller is smaller, and you only need it if you have a network connection
20:07.43chopssevard: There's not a different set of applications for the different install methods
20:07.44Guerinsevard: the netinstall has fuck-all. CD1 has a little more but most of it is gnome. But as long as you have network you're all good.

20:08.13sevardGuerin: of course, I'll be sticking simply with apt-get, I understand entirelly that different distros have very different ways of doing things and from a philosophilcal perspective the last thing I want to do is tailor a debian install to look like a slackware install just because I'm a pendantic ass.
20:08.37chopssevard: IOW, your "start with nothing and apt-get what you need" is exactly the way Debian is designed to be set up :-)
20:08.40Guerinsevard: goodgood. I don't run my bsd boxen like debian boxen, for the same reason.
20:08.52sevardso netinstall and aptitude it is.  thanks very much for the clarification.

20:10.36Opticit's in the standard linux kernel
20:10.40chopsOptic: No?  Why was it removed?
20:10.45Opticit's explicity stripped out in the debian ones
20:10.58EulexOptic, if you run debian you should know what the dfsg is about.
20:11.08Opticapparently its because the keyspan license says the driver can only be used with keyspan devices
20:11.10chopsOptic: Right, and why?
20:11.59Optici would choose a different multiport serial adapter but there aren't many choices in the market
20:11.59chopsOptic: So why wouldn't that be illegal to distribute alongside GPLed software, which may not be linked with software with such a license?

22:55.53Erik1Hypnus1: samba ?
22:55.59JordiGHHypnus1, install openssh-server in Debian and use Putty from Windows. For setting permissions, read "info coreutils chmod"

23:04.01Erik1etchR2
23:04.20JordiGHErik1: You can tell tasksel to not install anything at all and then manually choose packages with aptitude or synaptic later.

23:04.47Erik1how do I access tasksel during install ?
23:04.47StrangeCharmhowlingmadhowie, JordiGH: when trying to install uswsusp, it says that there's are more than one available swap partition, and i want to see what they are
23:05.02jetscreamerswapon -s
23:05.20dkrErik1: that's the normal step that asks if you want a desktop, a web server, etc.
23:05.22jetscreamerErik1: it's under that install software one
23:05.27Erik1JordiGH : by just choosing nothing ?
23:05.45Erik1ok
23:05.46JordiGHErik1: Choose nothing from tasksel, then manually choose later, yeah. :-/
23:05.48jetscreamertake all marks off in tasksel.. tasksel sucks
23:06.32JordiGHtasksel lied to me yesterday. I said "tasksel --task-packages desktop" and there wasn't a gnome dependency there, and gnome got installed anyways!
23:06.51JordiGHBut I think I'm starting to like gnome more than the big K.
23:07.09JordiGHamphi: Ok, gonna boot the .24 kernel. brb

23:07.57jetscreamerthe -686 is optimized for ppro
23:08.07JordiGHI've got core 2 duo.
23:08.12howlingmadhowiejetscreamer: "swapon -s" only gives information for partitions currently running as swap partitions. the way i see it is, StrangeCharm has a number of partitions formatted as swap. but maybe i'm wrong here

23:17.30xinguif I stretch this gpu a bit with fsaa/aniso, then all's well; if I don't stretch it, say 2x quicunx multisampling, 8x aniso which it can do standing on its head - then _returning_ from screensaver, the window manager won't gain control
23:17.38Nylenspluginwrapper, backported, therefore not in etch.... you can setup maybe wine+firefox, or run a 32bit firefox using ia32libs or just run a 32bit chroot

23:40.09Nylehowlingmadhowie: indeed
23:40.35enzohow can i know if the bug 393728 will be corrected in next debian release Nyle ?
23:40.39Nyleoh nm I was looking at a diff one
23:40.40Nylewhoops
23:40.52Nyle!dbugs #393728
23:40.55dpkg#393728:N[partman-md] dm-crypt on raid does not play nicely; Tue, 17 Oct 2006 15:48:52 UTC
23:41.11Nyleenzo: I don't know.  Would you like to help resolve it?
23:41.19abrotmanenzo: is it closed ?
23:41.33Agrajag-g'day, i know there's a debian package with a program that will give you info about what ram slots are in your computer, what type they are and other info. i can't remember the name and my apt-cache search foo isn't working too well. anyone happen to know?
23:41.44enzosomone has gave a patch there : http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=393728 Nyle abrotman
23:42.03NyleI can't recall it either Agrajag- there was one where you can get infor about your mobo and everything else etc.
23:42.10Nylecrap now I can't remember what it was called
23:42.12enzothere was an erratum i think there : http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/RAIDvsCrypto, i've not yet tested it
23:42.16NyleI just told someone of it like 2 days ago

23:48.20Nylebut windows xp program called everest tellsme the name of the ram chip and its timings and etverything else
23:48.23Nylehow come this doesn't?
23:48.29Nyleor can it?
23:49.00*** mode/#debian [+l 805] by debhelper
23:49.06NyleI took a look through the type list and I couldn't a type suitable for ram cas latency timings, vendor name etc.
23:49.28Nylewas the xp program possibly looking in some sort of database or is it easier than linux to get all that info?

23:50.05NyleI dunno
23:50.14WyzardNyle: Well, we know RAM can report its timings to the motherboard, because that's what the motherboard uses by default
23:50.27WyzardNyle: I wouldn't be surprised if it's possible for software to get that info somehow, but I don't know how
23:50.37NyleWyzard: what about the 5

23:51.07WyzardNyle: Type 5 is the memory controller on the motherboard
23:51.18NyleI think that ought to report that no?
23:51.36Wyzardno, it just tells you about the controller itself
23:51.41Nyleah
23:51.49Nyleyes, you're right, that all it does

23:53.12WyzardNyle: You can find that info in the motherboard manual too
23:53.34NyleWyzard: that I know, I never read it
23:53.48NyleWyzard: I know my timings too, I set them manually for an OC
23:53.59Nylejust curious as to hwo you can get that info though

23:59.39eldowanis there a way to use gimp at the command line to, say convert an image to a different format? I've looked at imagemagick, but when it converts jpg to png the resulting pngs are VERY large. however gimp gives nice compact images.
23:59.42WyzardNyle: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_Presence_Detect
23:59.48Nyleeldowan: imagemagick
