<0> hi
<0> hmn how to use captive-ntfs (enables write on ntfs) on knoppix cd-live os
<1> Anybody know if *nix writes to mothballed sectors on the hd?
<2> can someone tell me if it is possibly to download kernel source and when i got to make menuconfig, is there a way to grab the original setting of the kernel so I don't loose anything ?
<0> u need manualy kopy old konfigs.. all.. i do not know how.. im new
<3> triki: look in /boot for the config-x.x.x that matches your uname -a
<2> i installed slax which has all my stuff working, i just d/l kernel source and I don't want to screw things up
<3> triki: then cp it to the kernel source tree as .config and do make oldconfig
<2> sweet i'll try that !!
<3> triki: what's your current uname -r ?
<2> 2.6.15.6
<3> ok... do that then
<3> should work but any newer options will show up in make oldconfig... be prepared to answer them
<2> only thing in /boot is vmlinuz
<3> or hit enter for default then make menuconfig to alter
<3> ah yes... the old slack attack..... depends how ya run it....
<1> :[
<2> cp vmlinuz to /usr/src/linux/vmlinuz.config
<3> no no no
<3> vmlinuz should be the actual kernel
<3> depends
<3> have a look in / as well
<3> do ls -al /
<4> anyone use vmware? i cant seem to install "vmware tools".
<3> any loose files lying around?
<2> ya nothing good there
<3> triki: where did ya get this kernel?
<2> came with the distro, it's Slax :P
<5> dont_look: that doesnt tell us anyhing... what errrs do you get.. etc...
<2> trying to add modules
<2> but there was no module loading support
<2> i want to add it
<2> but no loose what is already in kernel
<3> triki: try.... locate config.gz
<3> triki: wait a minute... wait a minute
<2> nothing
<3> triki: have ya looked at rc.modules file?
<2> find / -name config.gz
<4> well there are no errors. i selected "vmware tools install" from the VM menu but it doesn't seem to be doing anything.
<2> OHHH wait
<2> here is one
<2> /proc/config.gz
<2> that one good ?
<5> triki: yep
<3> triki: /proc/config.gz is the kernel config..... do zcat /proc/config.gz > config-2.6.15.6
<2> copy that to /usr/src/linux ?
<5> dont_look: the guest is in X?
<3> dont_look: vmware's weird that way....
<3> triki: all the make options look for /usr/src/linux/.config file
<3> triki: ya can do make mrproper in between using any config ya want
<3> just cp it to .config
<2> ok just copied config-2.6.15.6 /usr/src/linux/.config
<3> make oldconfig
<2> now I can go in and make changes and it will have existing modules loaded :D
<3> do you actually know what you're doing?
<2> ya i know how to modify kernel and compile
<2> just didn't know what you just showed me
<3> never read /usr/src/linux/README huh?

<2> need kernel source and what not
<2> slackware isn't @ 2.6.15 yet :(
<3> ah...

<10> chmod -w
<10> oh well
<11> hello! Is there an easy way to control the processor speed on my laptop? I am running suse
<3> drive slower....
<5> Fus1: cpustep prob...
<11> inv_Arp: how does that work? I'm pretty new to Linux. for windows there's a small app that does it for me. I'm looking for something similar here. the fan is driving me crazy
<5> Fus1: no idea, install it and man it... should be to hard
<11> inv_Arp: where do I find it?
<5> Fus1: what distro?
<11> suse linux 10.1
<5> hmm... yum install cpustep? check suse's archives for package never used suse
<11> suse + cpustep gives 4 google hits...
<3> Fus1: point yast's installation medium to ftp.suse.com
<3> type.... yast
<11> and?
<3> it's a guified admin tool for doing just about EVERYTHING for SuSE....
<3> it _should_ have been the very first thing you learned...
<3> yast == yet another setup tool
<11> thanks!
<3> it's SuSE's main admin tool.... for console or X
<11> I'll check it out
<11> looks like that's what I'm looking for
<3> let's get at 8,000+ apps
<3> erm lets ya get at
<11> cool
<3> last suse i used was 6.4 tho....
<3> it's probably changed a bit...
<11> awol: it looks good! thanks for the tip!
<11> just what I needed
<11> take care
<12> anyone up?
<12> hello?
<12> where is everyone?
<13> must be at dinner heh, what's up?
<12> IdiotStic:i'm trying to get gnome or kde installed on debian
<13> do you already have X installed?
<12> well, check this out. it's a screenshot
<12> http://img369.imageshack.us/img369/9582/vmwaredebianstartxerrorij6.png
<12> i did apt-get install xdm
<12> and everything went fine
<12> not sure what to do next
<13> I'd use aptitude and get all of X installed first. xfree86 or xorg, with the fonts etc, then do kde or gnome
<13> Tom-Cat: are you using sarge?
<3> xdm == X display manager
<12> think so
<3> apt-get install x-window-system will install xfree86
