<0> (:
<1> i just want that has lots of installed programs
<0> lol
<1> i love how many programs come with knoppix livedvd but i cant find a distro like that that isnt a livecd
<0> Mandeep go for Additional Cds
<1> is there not a distro that just goes ahead and installs all the programs>
<2> Mandeep: they will all give you that (well most of them) slackware for example has over 3G if you do a complete install, Fedora Core has similar numbres
<1> ive tried fc
<1> 5
<2> Mandeep: slackware recommends full/complete install and thats over 3G
<1> fc5 didnt come with much
<1> is slackware rpm based
<2> it 'can' be (ie. it offers support for redhat package management [rpm] stuff)
<1> so what is it by default
<2> couldnt tell you - since I always install from source myself .. but if you let it install everything then you will have rpm support
<1> hmm
<2> the new slackware 10.2 is rather nice actually
<3> tarball
<1> in what ways
<2> slicers: nod
<2> Mandeep: in that I like it - but then again its running on a 3Ghz laptop (what Im on atm)
<1> i have a 2ghz desktop
<3> Calidan, .tgz :)
<2> Mandeep: but as I said initially - whats 'right for you' is not what is right for the next person .. I personally like redhat (the old), know nothing about fedora core (not interested), this slack seems nice and easy to get about in, but I also like several of the BSD os's too (they are unix 'clones' - kinda)
<2> slicers: yeah figured - ie. basically source installs
<2> (or source/bin installs from tarballs)
<1> i just want to know if there is a distro that comes with all the software already installed so i dont have to apt-get or any other thing
<1> like knoppix
<4> Mandeep, use slackware
<4> how we can use yahoo web call on linux especially with gaim, please advice
<1> alright ill give it a try
<2> Mandeep: www.linuxiso.org has links to many (if not all the main) linux distro sites - just look through their port lists and find the one that seems to offer you the most variety
<3> no its binary compressed files
<2> slicers: so bin tarballs *shrug* close enough :)
<1> thanks for the help guys
<2> np
<1> ill give slackware a try
<4> np
<4> how we can use yahoo web call on linux especially with gaim, please advice
<2> Mandeep: you only need disk 1&2 for slackware install, disks 3&4 are source only
<1> alright
<4> Calidan, I've never use disk 3&4 since 1&2 is enought
<2> sorry no idea Romeo_Blue - dont use gaim or yahoo web call
<2> Romeo_Blue: agreed
<3> one thing that i like from slack is prefix always /usr sysconfigdir always /etc localstatedir always /var :D
<4> Calidan, thx any other.. please
<5> wow busy night
<2> slicers: yeah that looks nice
<2> anyway - need food :) bbiab
<5> anything new here(not like im expecting much)
<4> how we can use yahoo web call on linux especially with gaim, please advice
<6> Romeo_Blue 1 sec
<4> asymptote, ok it is already p*** 1 sec :P
<6> Romeo_Blue go to: http://messenger.yahoo.com/messenger/download/unix.html then download the version corresponding to your operating system
<4> hmm I've to use yahoo software
<6> Romeo_Blue it is made for linux, what are you complaining about?
<5> thats pretty nifty asymptote
<4> asymptote, there is no source for slackware
<5> snicker
<6> Romeo_Blue use the debian or redhat source, the thing is you are going to end up using the one that works so you mind as well try both and get lucky.
<6> Romeo_Blue if neither of those work I will find you another thing to use, period.
<5> isnt slackware a debian based distro?
<7> NO
<4> different ubuntu yes debian based distro
<3> Romeo_Blue: http://sourceforge.net/projects/gaim-vv/
<4> I've tried that but not understand to use it
<4> hmm seems I've to tried it one more time
<5> gnite
<5> ls
<5> crap
<5> sorry :(
<8> got prbs with my linux... need help
<2> its a user problem - lack of sufficient information
<5> werd to his mother
<2> re-installation of wetware required
<5> if you see random stuff being typed its me interfacing poorly with epic's help
<2> heh
<5> 1
<5> crap..
<5> sorry :(
<5> i wonder if theres another way to access the epics help pages..
<9> Calidan: !
<2> Enchanter_tim: !!!
<2> Enchanter_tim: how you going man
<9> Calidan: well, preparing for another workday
<9> so shabby
<2> heh
<6> hey all
<2> ewww - compiler errors *sigh* forgot about those :)
<2> hmm - libnet comes as its own package yes?
<9> yes
<5> /leave
<5> bah
<2> and bpf is part of it?
<5> bbl
<9> net-libs/libnet
<9> perl-core/libnet
<2> (just checking)
<6> nite all, jsut to let #linux know soon I am going to be reading on those Dual boot guides just to familiarize my self with boot loaders and such, then I will start using a live distro. I can not wait to being my linux journey and become furniture in here yay! I had a good day at school and engineering is not too far away,
<9> no idea. i know i needed that + a bunch of other stuff, and i didnt need to get bpf
<2> Enchanter_tim: nod - I think it is, will throw libnet on here and see - wonder if that would be on the source disks for slack
<9> Calidan: mount -o loop is your friend
<2> indeed
<0> Calidan Calidan Calidan
<2> but Im going to burn them also - that way I can do away with those images and free up the space
<2> welcome back Asad-
<0> Calidan what is the simple diffination of mount?
<0> Thank You Calidan
<2> Enchanter_tim: oh - you should have no problems getting into the other chan (if you havent already)
<2> Asad-: attaching a directory to a device so you can access data through that device
<0> like mounting hardrives?
<2> ...access data ON that device THROUGH the attached directory
<9> Calidan: not yet, but i will from work
<2> Enchanter_tim: nod
<9> Calidan: is it based on hostmask ?
<2> Enchanter_tim: just remember to identify first :) or chanserv will luv ya again :)
<9> ah :D
<0> ;p
<2> Enchanter_tim: it may be
<2> not sure how rusty set it up
<2> Enchanter_tim: its set for your current host atm
<2> Asad-: heh
<0> Calidan I have a confusion in mind
<9> i have other things in mind
<2> I never think - I just go with the flow
<0> my question is people use that uplinks kind of thing for VPN's to send and recive data across the network these small uplinks have limited coverage?
<0> installed on buildings like dish recievers
<9> what? now *I* am confused
<2> not familiar with VPN - never had the need to use them
<0> um okies Calidan
<4> i'm using it in the office to connect thow branches VPN
<9> Asad-: think of vpns as seperate networks
<0> Right Enchanter_tim Pal
<2> overlayed ontop of the main'internet/intranet' network
<0> hmmm
<2> nm - I think it some strange abstracts sometimes .. takes a bit to translate :)
<0> And another thing whenever i use my laptop in office it detects a wireless network by itself I think some office owns this network is it good for my privacy or not?
<4> why is it no gst-inspect-i386 in slackware
<10> How can i see which group has what access?
<10> also, when i create a user .. an group gets created with the name of that user what should i do.. i have to delete that?
<9> well, vpns generally work because the traffic has an incapsulated packet inside of it (sort of)
<2> nod
<9> think of it like an email containing an email attachment :D
<9> that, when there is need of it, gets unpacked, and send on its way again
