<1> warjes: just inbound, and that is the spelling of it in the spam im getting every 30 mins

<2> why not just install spam ***asin? if not there is a way to compile custom sendmail filters
<1> well i have spambouncer which i guess came with sendmail on this box
<3> whee irc'ing from the train again
<4> Lann2: use milter-regex for that
<3> ic
<3> weird there's this one bridge over the hudson where the connection always goes to crap
<3> I wonder if they are jamming cell phones there
<5> bridge == steel == super antenna
<5> it boosts the signal so high, that it goes right through the towers
<5> </bull****>
<0> ah, cl***ic Qwell[] moment
<3> haha
<3> god how depressing, a guy in one of the forums I'm on posted a pic he took with Rik Mayall
<3> it's true what the song said
<3> we may not be the young ones very long
<6> I'm having some problems with X sessions. I startx (KDE) and if I exit out and attempt to get back in my screen goes black and it never fires up. I have to reboot. Any ideas?
<3> sounds like a video driver problem
<3> what kind of card you have?
<6> ATI Radeon 9200
<6> Using the offical ATI drivres... I did upgrade it awhile back (the drivers) but had some problems so I went back to the olrder version I was using but I don't recall this happening until recently
<6> then again I don't recall if I ever exited X and rentered w/o a reboot..
<3> figures
<3> you might want to try switchng to the "fglrx" driver from ati
<3> but ati hardware in general is a pain
<7> thats cause they're canadian
<7> there
<7> i said it
<7> deal with it
<3> with their beady eyes and flapping heads
<6> hmm fglrx?
<6> that the open source ATI drivers?
<3> no fglrx is ati's drivers
<6> that's what I'm using
<6> the offical driver from ATI
<6> Is there any startup logs I can check to see where it's failing?
<0> wescotte: if fglrx doesn't ring a bell, then you probably arn't running the official driver
<3> I agree
<0> wescotte: it prints some to the screen, but theyre mainly in /var/log/Xorg.0.log IIRC
<8> Running ATI hardware is its own reward.
<3> but when people make ***ertions like that I give up rather quickly
<6> fglrxinfo display: :0.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc. OpenGL renderer string: RADEON 9200 DDR Generic OpenGL version string: 1.3.1060 (X4.3.0-8.24.8)
<6> I'm running fglrx I just got it mixed up wiht the open source ATI drivers (which I haven't tried to run)
<0> then you did set fglrx in your xorg.conf, and it shows up in lsmod
<9> i'm trying to set up xserver on a new debian install for the first time and its able to detect a driver for my card its a radeon x1300 which driver should I select?
<6> yes it shows up in lsmod and the installer modified my xorg.conf yes
<6> the ATI driver installer is pretty much run -> click next -> click finish -> done.. so I dunno what I could hvae done wrong
<6> however I do know the latest version has an issue and anything using openGL won't run so I revereted to an older version
<9> does anyone know where I can find the correct video card driver for my xserver on debian?
<9> I'm running an ati x1300
<6> Thorbar: ati.com
<9> I'm trying to set up the xserver for the first time on debian and I'm in the config program
<9> ah **** just noticed ati on the options
<9> nevermind
<6> ah I figured you'd hvae to use a generic driver..
<6> 1st..
<9> seems to have worked
<6> I don't think you'll get any 3D accelration with that driver though
<9> should i install the official drivers from ati afterwards to get 3d acceleration?
<6> Well you may have it running now.. Do an lsmod and see if fglrx is listed
<10> im trying to have grub run in failsafe mode so that if my new kernel doesnt work i can remotely reboot it in to the old, the grub manual points to using a program called grub-set-default, i get command not found.. is there another way of doing this?
<11> any good forums for posting linux security problems ?
<3> bugtraq
<9> my x server is failing to start with the fatal server error : no screens found
<9> anyone know of a good how to for configuring the x server for debian?
<10> i used to use Xorg --configure i think but not positive havent done it inawhile
<12> -config
<13> this is from slapt-get - Error: there is no installed package named slapt-get-0.9.11b-i386-1 (looking for /var/log/packages/slapt-get-0.9.11b-i386-1); any suggestions? i'm trying to install version 0.911b but its saying it cant find that version installed. weird
<13> message before that is - Preparing to replace slapt-get-0.9.10e with slapt-get-0.9.11b-i386-1
<13> Any suggestions/ideas please?
<12> does /var/log/packages/slapt-get-0.9.11b-i386-i exist?
<13> i just ran it with --no-upgrade. seemed to work for now
<13> then it needed to be updated again still and the new upgrade worked properly
<1> why is there an /etc, and a /root/etc?
<14> whats the best distro for playin games on like cs or hl2
<0> if your still playing those, you need to buy new games
<14> well im just wondering
<15> incomming, doesn't matter
<14> im so sick of media center...
<15> just need cedega
<14> allright what distro works best on a vaio
<14> i tried cedega on fedora didnt run right
<15> incomming, if you're looking for ease of use, i recommend suse or ubuntu
<16> Is there a way to make ebuntu not automatically go into x?
<14> what is it called when you have a single main server
<14> and run all the other computers off it
<14> pretty much i need a windows domain but off linux servers
<14> with linux clients
<17> Is there a way to set a linux system to, say, shut down / hibernate from, say, 10 PM until 7 AM ?
<12> kaosjeste: yes you can script a shut down, but not necessarily a wake up
<18> The wake up is essential :(
<12> kaosjeste: if your system has wake on lan that might work
<12> kaosjeste: trying to save power?
<18> No, a friend asked me the question. He was really vague about it.
<18> Could I just set a pair of cron tabs to set it to init 1 and then back up to init 5 in the morning?
<18> That may do the trick.
<12> kaosjeste: then my answer is "Maybe but it depends"
<12> kaosjeste: how would cron run if the machine is off?
<18> Exactly.
<18> That's why I asked about something like init 1.
<12> it won't you have to look to hardware to wake it back up
<18> Because then it's on, but single-user, no networking, etc.
<18> Well, thank you for at least attempting to help. I may be back in a few hours with more elaborate information :)
<12> kaosjeste: software will not be able to control when it wakes up
<12> kaosjeste: np
<12> you could build a simple pic project with a timer to try and wake it up
<18> Yeah, but that sounds like too much work.
<18> The person who asked me probably has a dumb reason for wanting to anyway. He's not the most tech-savvy person I've ever met.
<16> man, I can't decide what to use out of ubuntu or fedora
<19> slackware
<16> I knew I should have stuck with FreeBSD.
<16> but I agree, slackware is nice
<20> god no
<16> ?
<10> yah i wish i had an apt-get install freebsd
<20> if you want a challenge, go for gentoo
<21> if you want freebsd install freebsd
<20> but seriously, try out both ubuntu and fedora and se what you prefer.. I've tried both, and they have their pro's and con's
<16> Well, I'm running ubuntu right now.
<16> I wonder what the pros are
<16> I know one of the cons
<20> hahaha
<16> The defaults.
<20> I liked ubuntu apart from the sudo-thingy
<16> kdm or gdm or whatever it is...is enabled by default
<16> yeah..I don't care for sudo
<20> but yeah, it's nice if you like things to work without giving a lot of effort
<16> but my brother told me about yum
<16> in fedora
<16> and now I'm wanting it
<20> I never used yum in my fedora/rh days
<21> yum is nice but it has nothing over apt
<20> I found apt to be easier
<16> ah
<12> ekim: why don't you care for sudo?
<21> and you can byp*** the whole sudo thing by adding a root p***word
<16> I prefer just logging into root
<12> ekim: ah haven't shot yourself in the foot enough times yet
<16> that's the 2 things that pissed me off
<12> ekim: time will fix that. Or having multiple people admin a machine.
<0> or a little understanding may fix it too
<12> ekim: i use sudo because it logs everything someone runs through it
<16> xdm or gdm or whatever it was was enabled by default...and no root p***word by default
<21> yeah if you install a desktop system you get boot to X
<19> anyone here running a 3com 3c905b ethernet card with a 2.6 kernel?
<12> !wtf ask?
