<Stilgar> Zippy2: I believe you helped me earlier with my sluggish system due to via IDE controller
<Stilgar> whoever that was, thanks a lot!
<graz> nod
<Zippy2> Stilgar: np
<Zippy2> captwho
<Zippy2> use blackbox as your window manager
<Stilgar> Indeed I compiled VIA IDE controller support not as a module but built in - worked.
<jeenam_> captwho: the xubuntu distro may work well
<jeenam_> runs xfce
<chains> jeenam_, i msg'd you
<chains> and IMed you
<chains> brb, reboot
<Chris--> ok, i have this multi-nic box, one of which is plugged into my modem. im lookin at the nic and the modem both, and theres obviously plenty of traffic going between the 2. problem is, when i try to pump the interface, linux fails to bring it up, and ufup doesnt help any either. anybody seen something like this before?
<Chris--> pumping the nic LOOKS like its trying to bring it up, in fact it shows that promiscuous mode is enabled...
<Chris--> its an older kernel on debian sarge (2.6.9.something)
<Chris--> im open to suggestion at this point, as i cant find anything in /etc/network/ that seems to make a difference....
<Idle`> man, sketchup is _slick_
<Idle`> http://game-sat.com/~brian/nait-hp-googleearth.jpg
<Schism> is there any reason why when I added 512 megs of ram to my server, linux would not pick it up? the bios sees it.
<Schism> duh, figured it out :)
<Chris--> o_O
<[Jedi]> i wish to run a different process than mine, for example some different executeable, and before running it (from my C program) i wish to set the stdin and stdout to be some other file descriptors, for example files i've already open, is there a way to force the new procesess to use these descriptors instead of the default stdin/out ?
<Qwell> #c..
<Idle`> [Jedi]: yup
<[Jedi]> Idle` how can i do that ?
<Idle`> you fopen, swap stdin/stdout with those fd's, fork, exec, and thats it
<Idle`> theres a function that swaps them, I dont know what it is
<[Jedi]> thats what i did: if (fork() == 0) { stdout = fopen...; execv("newproc); }
<[Jedi]> but the newproc ignores the new stdout
<towlie> i installed the newest version of firefox but when i run it it says libstdc++ is missing. what package is this file from ?
<spacebear> how do i do a network install on my other comp
<tamp4x> anyone know a free iso burning program?
<Idle`> cdrecord
<Idle`> or dvd+rw-tools for dvd isos
<SufferAll> k3b
<Idle`> k3b is a frontend for cdrecord
<graz> mmmmm frontends
<tamp4x> err i meant for windows
<hotnikks> can you "pin" certain packages at specific levels so they are not touched by up2date?
<towlieban> hey who was helping me earlier about libstdc++ ?
<sauce> anyone know of a good tutorial for apache+mysql+php on slackware?
<Qwell> !tldp lamp
<Qwell> erm
<Qwell> !google lamp
<LinuxHOW2> http://tinyurl.com/g7xub
<sauce> i love lamp
<hotnikks> just go debian over slack
<hotnikks> i havent run slack since the 1990s
<sauce> qwell was that link for me ?
<Qwell> yes
<sauce> /ignore hotnikks
<sauce> first apache hit - migrating from 1.3 to 2.0. another tutorial mentioned using apache2, why does slack come with 1.3 ?
<hotnikks> there you go
<spacebear> how do i do a network install on my other comp
<Qwell> spacebear: by reading the netboot howto for your distro
<hotnikks> anyone use pssh/
<hotnikks> ?
<towlieban> im using fedora core 5. everything was working great but now when i but it says remounting file system in read-write mode then it doesnt continue. i waited 10 minutes but it stayed at that prompt. any ideas what could be wrong ? i booted in rescue mode from a cd and was able to mount and browse the file system.
<SufferAll> try enabling rpc
<towlieban> how
<SufferAll> should be started with nfs
<InNeed> hey guys
<InNeed> im on centos and need flash player 8 or 9 how can I get one
<InNeed> without using wine??
<InNeed> no one??
<cmang> InNeed: search with up2date, or whatever graphical package management interface Centos includes
<sauce> what repositories does everyone use with slapt-get? i use a regular slackware.com mirror but i was wondering if theres a fast one with 3rd party packages
<cmang> InNeed: sorry.. I meant yum, not up2date
<sauce> ok i found one
<betta0> if i'm logged into knoppix as root user, and i mount the hard drive through kde why is it that i cant delete things from it?
<SufferAll> because it got mount read only
<Tutter> evenin'
<betta0> oh but i unticked read only before mounting it. how to do i change it so i can? i've gone into the properties and its all set to read/write for owner..or would i need to mount it in the shell with read/write?
<type0> cmang
<type0> you the same guy from #conf?
<bedouin_> How can I get the MAC address of a device by using its IP address to lookup?
<bedouin_> arp.. but how
<Trey> you must be on the same subnet. ping the host to ensure the mac is in the arp table
<Trey> then arp -a to list the arp table
<bedouin_> yeah... i tried that.. it's an old SCSI > Ethernet adapter attached to a 68k mac
<bedouin_> So it breaks rules...
<bedouin_> it's working fine on the network.. but arp can't see it...
<bedouin_> trying to find its MAC address so I can ***ign it a static route from my router
<bedouin_> it's so old you can't plug it into an auto sensing hub/switch
<leooo> is it possible for a linux box to run eth0 as internet device, but not have a "eth0" file in the system?
<Tutter> not that I know of leooo
<Tutter> if its using eth0, it sees eth0
<leooo> is there a special find string do i need to specify somethin to find "eth0" because its a dev?
<Tutter> leoo did you do an ifconfig ?
<Tutter> is it listed ?
<leooo> ya
<Zippy2> loooo @ leoo
<leooo> but there's no eth0
<leooo> heh
<leooo> zippy, for the love of god, come again?
<Zippy2> loo=lol
<Zippy2> why do you need an eth0 device
<leooo> what the **** do you think?
<leooo> heh
<Zippy2> i dont know
<Qwell> it isn't a device
<Zippy2> i know it isnt. im aksing him why he needs it as one
<leooo> what is it then ?
<Qwell> an interface
<Zippy2> interface
<Zippy2> doh
<leooo> hmm..
<leooo> yeah but its /dev/eth0
<leooo> i figured it was a device
<leooo> heh
<Qwell> No, it isn't, obviously
<leooo> lol of course not
<leooo> why is it not in /dev/eth0 and its running from ipconfig
<Zippy2> if it's ppp it's a device
<Qwell> because it ISN'T a device
<leooo> where the hell do i find it
<Zippy2> that's because it's based on ttyS which is another device
<Qwell> You don't
<leooo> wtf
<leooo> nevermind
<leooo> i dont know why i thought it was a device
<leooo> heh

<aslan> Idle`, would you or your parents know of anyone in the canadian customs department?
