<0> any one who knows how to install gaim ver 1.5
<0> please............
<1> It's written in plain text on their website. gaim.sf.net
<0> i already read what is written on that web
<0> but i can't run de program
<2> eh
<1> Great! Then you know how to install it.
<2> ehehe
<0> yes but i can't executed on desktop
<2> Ti0, once you installed it. it wil be in your internet group ...
<1> You can also use your Run prompt and type in "gaim" there.
<2> :P
<3> on linux just type :>gaim & from the console ;)
<4> usually. That's not always the case.
<1> Which case are we talking about?
<4> if you have one of those screwy distros that doesn't put /usr/local/bin in the $PATH
<1> WHAT?! They make those?
<1> Time to make a list of distros to NOT use.
<4> um... I"m sure they're around, somewhere.
<4> I'm just pointing out that it's possible that gaim & doesn't ALWAYS work after you've installed.
<4> And... most people don't want to dump to console just to run a gui app. They want to double-click the pretty little icon.
<1> Oh, I thought you meant you knew of one specifically that was doing that nowadays.
<1> If they want to double click I would recommend Windows to them.
<5> or add a "launcher" to whatever windowmanager/desktop managers panel you use
<6> where can i get all FreeBSD commands?
<5> #freebsd
<1> or #bsdhelp
<1> Not from a Linux channel, for sure.
<7> you should call my mate bill and ask
<8> or read the freebsd handbook on www.freebsd.org
<9> lol
<3> lol
<5> :)
<10> i want a script to start based on if a wirless usb card is in, how would i make it depend on that?
<11> something checking allt he time for tha tto happen
<10> ?
<10> well i want a script to run at boot but only if the device is present
<10> ifconfig
<10> wrong window
<1> Using Slackware, my system does that automatically. It uses rc.inet1, rc.inet1.conf, rc.wireless, and rc.wireless.conf.
<1> If the wireless card is installed it uses rc.wireless and starts the interface.
<1> If the wireless card is not there it skips it.
<10> well yes
<10> but i want script to run that use the wireless interface
<10> can that file exec other scripts?
<10> didn't think fo that
<1> Of course.
<1> rc.inet1 brings up all the interfaces that are configured in rc.inet1.conf.
<12> fearphage: if you want to load modules if that device is pluged-in this is not the way..
<10> no, i want scripts to use the wireless interface
<1> rc.inet1 contains a link? to the rc.wireless script. If the wireless card is configured in rc.wireless.conf and the card is plugged in then it starts the wireless, otherwise it only starts the other interfaces that are installed and skips the missing wireless card.
<10> not just bring it up to connect to a network
<1> That doesn't really make sense.
<10> lets say i wanted kismet to run in a screen in the background if the wireless nic is present
<10> thats what i mean
<1> Why reinvent the wheel?
<10> what do you mean?
<10> how is that already done for me?
<1> Why make something harder that it needs to be. Use the tools that someone else has spent a lot of time perfecting instead of doing it yourself from scratch.
<10> well i don't mind using those tools
<10> just didn't/don't know how exactly. i'll read the rc.wireless
<1> Basically, it just says if the wireless card is configured in rc.wireless.conf use the settings that are in it if the card is present in the system. rc.inet1 is the script that brings up the interfaces.
<1> And since rc.inet1 is ran when the system goes into multi-user mode, it would run at bootup, like you asked for.
<10> ok
<1> All the rc scripts on slackware are very simple shell scripts.
<1> Makes it really easy to use them in other situations.
<9> im bored
<1> Is there any reason you have to tell us that so many times per day?
<9> yeah
<1> I can't think of any reason you would need to tell all of us about it so much.
<9> and????
<1> See the period at the end of the sentence? That means I was done with the sentence.
<9> =o
<3> oh snap :)
<10> how do i run a screen in the background at bootup?
<13> fearphage: screen -d -m command
<13> it's it the manual
<10> slax doesnt use the start-stop-deamon i'm familiar with
<10> ok
<1> -d -m Start screen in "detached" mode. This creates a new session but doesn't attach to it. This is useful for system startup scripts.
<14> help
<1> kiwil: You'll have to remove the commenting in named.conf and run rndc reload in order for it to work.
<10> ok
<15> no, he needs to stop the apache2 service first
<15> then remove the commenting
<7> fill it with oil and light it
<1> al-ashtar: I didn't know! He didn't bother asking any questions or telling what he wanted help with, so I had to guess.
<15> but be sure to stop apache2
<15> p3nguin: I didn't know either
<13> p3nguin: i tought you read his mind :/
<15> kiwil: you could either stop apacke2 or you could just chock your chicken, and all will be ok
<15> apache2*
<3> .....
<1> This ****s. I need to buy six capacitors to replace the bad ones on a mainboard. I pull up the ones I want and try to place an order. The minimum quantity I can order is 1000 capacitors for 130$.
<1> I don't need 1000, I only need six.
<10> saving the pid to a file, is that something individual programs support or is that universal?
<10> i want to start something in a screen and said the proc id to a file
<3> p3nguin
<3> there has to be an electronics supplier nearby that would sell them
<3> if you live by a major city
<3> I live in Denver, CO, USA and there are several shops that I'm aware of that buy orders like that and sell them off in chunks
<4> p3nguin : even at mouser.com?
<1> THat's the place I'm talking about.
<4> really?!
<4> I've never had a problem with ordering a half-dozen components from them.
<1> The Nichicon 1000uF 6.3V caps I need... minimum 1000 quantity.
<4> ouch!
<1> I can't seem to find the right physical size of the 3300uF cap.
<4> do they have something with a higher voltage in the capacitance? Cause that'd work, too.
<1> They are 12.5mm diameter, mine have to fit in a 10.0mm spot.
<1> I emailed them to see if I can get a smaller quantity.
<1> I thought you told me I could get rubicon brand from them, but I couldn't find that.
<4> hrm... I got rubicons from 'em. They might've stopped carrying 'em. Who knows.
<4> I got rubicons from them to fix up my A7M266-D about a year ago.
<1> I only found Xicon and Nichicon. I might have to give them a call to get anything else.
<4> OK... THIS is why most companies SHOULDN'T open-source their product!
<4> public string HelloWorld() {
<4> object[] results = this.Invoke("HelloWorld", new object[0]);
<4> return ((string)(results[0]));
<4> This is actually in the source of an app I have to support!
<4> <autogenerated>
<4> This code was generated by a tool.
<4> Runtime Version: 1.0.3705.6018
<4> hahahahahahhahahaha!
<1> By a tool????
<4> I don't know if that means that a utility generated the code... or if a moron did it. ;)
<1> I think it's both.
<10> what does processes listed with []'s around them mean?
<10> what do*
<10> what does it mean when processes have []'s around them in ps?
<16> digi-key
<16> small order electronic components
<16> go with the 10v instead of the 6.3v
<1> They have a surcharge on small orders.
<16> its where i get mine ... didn't have to pay shipping when i pay in advanced
<16> got a handful of nichicon 1000uf 10v right here ...
<16> heh ... ready for a motherboard ... shouldn't be to much longer
<1> If they are 8mm diameter those are the ones I need.
<16> yes they are
<1> I ordered stuff from them before. I'll have to check there again.
<16> digi-key part number 493-1496-ND
<1> I talked them into waiving the surcharge the last time. I ordered 4$ worth of parts and they wanted to charge me another 5$ in a "not meeting minimum order amount" surcharge.
<16> i need to order some more stuff from there, supply is runnin low one a few items
<16> **** ... order a bunch and ebay the extra
<1> Up for auction today is a lot of 994 electrolytic capacitors.
<16> sell'em in small lots, not many people tryin to fix motherboards lookin for big lots, e.g. you
<1> I know. I'll take care of it. I just had bad luck on my first look for caps. It'll work out for me.
<4> I REALLY need to start/finish my nixie clock.
<16> binary clock?
<16> ah... tubes
<4> a decade-counter based clock with a nixie-tube display.
