<inv_Arp> wescotte: yea since its mosly binaries.... ls -R | cpio -o | nc snoopy 5555 did the trick...
<DrMitch> wescotte, amarok is pretty awesome
<wescotte> Yeah only one thing I wish it did was allow you to drag stuff from your collection togethre to update tags easier
<wescotte> If I have a duplicate band name (spelled differently or case differences or whatnot) ti'd be nice ot drag one onto the other to match Artist info
<DrMitch> ha, that's pretty specific
<wescotte> My collection isn't that large so it was pretty easy to fix manually
<wescotte> well if you drag a traack to a album it'd nice to match all those items as well
<wescotte> If I get bored maybe I'll attempt to add the feature myself
<DrMitch> yea, right when I learned how the Ipod works (with the ID3 tags) I went through my 1500mp3 collection and manually edited the ID3 tags to be PERFECT. and now I just update them correctly each time i rip/dl them
<wescotte> yeah alot of rippers these days jump on like cddb.com or whtnot and make the tags accurate
<DrMitch> is there a program that let's you compare the ID3v1 and v2 tags and copy from one to the other...preferably a in batch process
<wescotte> heh I remember the old days where you'd rip a CD overnight cuz it took so long :)
<wescotte> I don't know one offhand but I'm sure they exist
<DrMitch> yea, i remember having to rip to .WAV then convert to .mp3
<wescotte> yup
<DrMitch> took like 10 minutes per song
<wescotte> I didn't do alot of ripping in those days..
<wescotte> Then again I still don't.. my CD collection hasn't grown a whole lot lately
<rift> I have authd installed and running, but it isn't using the username for the ident on irc... it comes up with some random chars
<monster_> i just resently install moblock, peer gaurdian for linux
<monster_> and i removed it
<rift> i.e. U2FsdGVkX1@ip
<monster_> but some of the ips are still being blocked
<monster_> anyone know where i could find to ips being blocked
<monster_> or how to search inside all files for a text string
<DrMitch> monster_, cat file | grep something
<monster_> how would i do
<monster_> locate *.conf | cat results | grep something
<monster_> cat | locate *.conf | grep 66.221 ?
<DrMitch> umm... for i in `find /dir -name *.conf` ; do cat $i | grep something ; done
<inv_Arp> grep -R "string" *.conf
<monster_> anyone use shorewall?
<Qwell> !wtf uuoc?
<LinuxHOW2> Well, uuoc is useless use of cat! `cat filename |grep string` can be replaced with `grep string filename`
<kvasov> what's the conventional way of installing the kernel headers from a custom compiled kernel?
<war--> kvasov: you shoud not have to do that
<kvasov> /usr/src/include/version.h specifies an older version
<war--> make menuconfig should do that for you , no?
<kvasov> i dont do menuconfig
<kvasov> i do make oldconfig
<h0ser> i am running debian 3.1, whenever i try to do apt-get install anything, it says i have unmet dependicies (libc6-dev) and when i do apt-get -f install it bombs saying i need to upgrade glibc, but my version number > 255, but this is only a warning message, and the next line is dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.3.6-15_i386.deb (--unpack): subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1
<h0ser> any ideas?
<korozion> wescotte no problem
<_reppir> how do I show a list of the currently loaded kernel modules?
<Coweater> h0ser: delete that deb, it'll refetch it, but if you're using that version of libc you're running testing
<Coweater> lsmod
<_reppir> ahh yes, /sbin, ty
<Phaid> _reppir lsmod
<h0ser> i removed the deb from var/cache and it downloaded it again and it gives same error - i am trying to use pastebin but its just hanging on submit
<_reppir> in fedora, how do I modify which modules are loaded into the kernel?
<h0ser> can someone look at my apt-get error? http://pastebin.ca/82794 it says i have unmet dependicies, but apt-get -f install ddoesnt work (thats in the link also)
<Phaid> _reppir well it autodetects hardware so normally you wouldn't need to do that
<Phaid> what exactly are you trying to do
<_reppir> well it's loading things like a battery module and bluetooth
<_reppir> plus about 10 sound modules, and the sound doesn't even work
<_reppir> pcmcia, etc
<Phaid> hm and you don't have that stuff?
<_reppir> plus I dorked up the ATI driver install for dual monitor support, and I need to erase those and start fresh
<_reppir> no I dont, it's a desktop
<Phaid> odd
<_reppir> how do I configure gcc to build a 64 bit compiler only?
<kvasov> what's a good webcam for linux ?
<Butler> anyone know how to rip flash movies from the net?
<Butler> i want to download them and watch documentaries with mplayer =)
<kvasov> are there any cameras that use a simpler protocol than usb?
<Phaid> simpler how? there were cameras that used rs232 but they were very slow
<rathe_> how do u unrar files in linux
<korozion> with the command 'unrar'
<graz> my cam uses old serial inetrface
<Idle`> mine does too... its USB
<Idle`> and my phone does too, its bluetooth
<graz> pre-usb
<Idle`> all serial interfaces
<Idle`> :D
<Idle`> I know, I'm just being a ****
<DrMitch> i'm using MythWeb, and it requires that in apache, the directory htdocs/mythweb has "AllowOverride All". But when I do this, I get the trailing slash bug (JUST for that directory.) (I can't enter "http://localhost/mythweb"; it has to be http://localhost/mythweb/";) anyone know how I can fix this?
<bougyman> http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/MythWeb_on_Lighttpd
<bougyman> you don't want myth bogged down by crapache, too.
<DrMitch> but i like apache :-(
<DrMitch> i'm not gonna switch httpd's
<Idle`> bougyman: ever heard of scgi?
<bougyman> yes, Idle`
<bougyman> i tested it for a while
<bougyman> it's not as fast as fastcgi
<bougyman> and no easier to work with, so i didn't find a use for it.
<korozion> bougyman what was that partner to fastcgi you and Trey were talking about?
<bougyman> huh?
<bougyman> scgi and fastcgi do the same thing
<bougyman> fastcgi's older, faster, and more stable, running the apps we tried.
<Idle`> bougyman: thats what I thought :D
<bougyman> scgi's claim to fame is its simplicity.
<korozion> naw, there was another thing that went along with fcgi
<Idle`> I had someone tell me it was better.... I was skeptical
<dudeskee> I have a network interface (not eth0).. If I just want to dump some test data down on it, can I do that?
<dudeskee> like data from the command "cat testfile" or so
<gauze> man nc
<gauze> ^^dudeskee
<dudeskee> I've already done man nc, thank you
<dudeskee> it isn't helpful
<dudeskee> it requires a port, and doesn't allow you to do what I asked
<gauze> ok then no you can't do that
<gauze> :-P
<dudeskee> in other words, gauze, nc is the only network utility in existance for linux
<gauze> what does "dump some test data down to it" mean?
<gauze> doe sthis interface have an IP?
<gauze> are you talking about tcp at all
<gauze> how about you: ask a complete question
<dudeskee> it does have an IP, however, from what I gather, it's a virtual interface created by a program
<dudeskee> gauze, if you need more information to answer a question, you can ask, as you are doing now
<gauze> ok
<gauze> what are you trying to do exactly?
<gauze> not how are you trying to solve some problem
<gauze> the big picture what is your end goal here
<dudeskee> the end goal is to output data using the computer's soundcard, record it with a tape device, and input it again
<dudeskee> the means I've taken so far is to use a program designed for a similar purpose: modulating and demodulating data for packetradio, by creating a virtual modem that runs from software
<dudeskee> called soundmodem
<dudeskee> the program creates an interface and ***igns it an IP address and a broadcast address
<dudeskee> doing a broadcast ping on the broadcast address causes the virtual modem to output some data audibly
<dudeskee> however, nothing else I've tried has
<dudeskee> .
<Idle`> GRR
<Idle`> I hate how SOOO many people just cheat when it comes to progress bars
<gauze> ok so an ICMP packet caused something to happen, which doesn't require a port ... hm
<dudeskee> incidentially, the data the output broadcasts something like, "............ !"#$%&'()*+,-./01234567," gauze
<gauze> I was thinking if you set the virtuals interfaces I as the default gateway you could send something to some other port via udp or tcp but this modem thing ... I'm a bit confuselled
<gauze> also btw I have to go out now to go see a couple bands play
<dudeskee> aha
<dudeskee> ok
<gauze> you get what I'm saying though?
<gauze> the bits will p*** through that interface if it's a gateway ...
<gauze> and maybe cause some noises
<dudeskee> (at least your advice got worlds better than the infuriating and always unhelpful "man foo.")
<dudeskee> yeah, I could try that
<dudeskee> though
<dudeskee> I'd like to create custom packets
<dudeskee> of controlled data
<kvasov> hi
<kvasov> does anybody know how usb works?
<Trey> !wtf ask?
<LinuxHOW2> ask is probably not asking to ask a question, or asking if anyone knows 'foo' but actually asking a real question, providing details of all software involved and actual error messages! It is NOT /msg'ing people who didn't ask you to /msg them! HOWTO Get Help With Your Linux Problems? http://awol.no-ip.org/howto-gethelp.html
<Idle`> yes, its an addressable bus, like rs485
<Trey> Idle`: shhh
<kvasov> what's an IRP
<Idle`> I have no idea how ti works :D
<Trey> Idle`: hey i was talking to bougyman about your fastora problems and he had a great idea
<Trey> Idle`: return the 208SS and get a 208SA
<Idle`> haha
<Trey> the disks are much cheaper and the preformance is still great
<Idle`> sata ++
<Idle`> well, we found some inline adaptors in the most unlikely place
