<0> I'm trying to use a SCSI tape drive from linux; what's its device name likely to be? /dev/sd?
<1> st#
<0> how do i know which #
<1> grep your dmesg
<0> don't see any evidence of a tape drive
<2> back
<3> if i have a module that isn't on the machine for a network card, do i have to rebuild the kernel?
<4> riznix: no.. just load the module
<5> you'll probably need to compile it under the kernel version you'll be using it with, then install it, then run depmod -a and then load it
<3> i have one via-rhine module on the slackware 10.1 machine with a 2.4.26 kernel, and im trying to get it on the other slackware 9.0 machine
<3> i have an error when mounting the floppy /dev/fd0 device..
<3> mount -t ext3 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
<3> mount: /dev/fd0 is not a valid block device
<3> although it shows in /etc/fstba



<6> is your floppy actually using ext3?
<6> btw, are you sure your slackware 9 machine doesn't have the module for the nic already?
<7> anyone could teach me how to unzip a .zip file using gzip?
<6> you need unzip, from infozip
<7> unzip option is disabled
<6> gzip doesn't handle .zip files
<6> you literally need something called "unzip"
<7> -bash: unzip: command not found
<7> [gbx@serv-1-3-246 cy]$ unzip
<7> unzip
<7> -bash: unzip: command not found
<7> [gbx@serv-1-3-246 cy]$
<6> yes, it needs to be installed.
<7> is there any options left?
<7> other than unzip?
<7> maybe pkunzip?
<6> do you own the box?
<7> yes
<6> why not install it? :d
<8> then install unzip :|
<9> pssh, stuffit expander!
<6> you can probably grab this ftp://ftp.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/UNIX/LINUX/unz551x-glibc.tar.gz
<10> no one thinks to ask what distro he's running? so ya can then just say "apt-get install unzip"? or maybe yum install unzip? or woteva?
<9> I just came in and saw someone was trying to decompress something
<9> of course, there is no stuffit for linux, :D
<10> spitting easy answers out is easy... it takes intelligence to know what the real question is....
<9> how about spitting out random garbage (like me) ?
<10> we have LinuxHOW2 for that....
<10> or joel....
<9> na
<11> I'd be afraid of the relationship between an organism and its only 2 out of a baby that has 2 interfaces that are connected to it.
<9> joel just spits out 'google.com'
<9> at least joel is right, albiet not helpful in a help channel
<7> awol: i think its a server distro
<7> maybe not.. maybe just serv
<9> Wamtys: what distro...
<9> everything is a server, AND desktop distro. so thats not much help
<7> from my host
<7> serv-1-3-246 cy]
<9> thats your server name
<9> cat /etc/*rel*
<9> OR:
<9> cat /etc/*ers*
<12> Idle`: knoppix is a server distro?
<12> :p
<9> bougyman: a very good one, as its much harder to hack, as its a simple reboot and its restored ;)
<9> of course, that would require some hacking... but yea
<13> morn
<8> mornin graz
<9> gnite korozion
<8> :P
<9> TKO!
<13> game 7 tonight?
<8> indeed
<8> I think I'll get hammered and watch the game
<13> whens gametime, 7PM est?
<8> that's a good question. Most likely
<0> How can I find out which driver I need to use to operate my Tandberg SDLT320 tape drive?
<14> jez: have you googled it ?



<0> yes
<0> just a load of crappy posts about people's specific problems
<0> and windows drivers
<9> graz: its time to LOSE
<4> how mv more than one file again..? mv {file1,file2} /dest right.... mv: cannot stat `{': No such file or directory etc...
<9> ...
<9> mv file1 file2 file3 dest
<4> nvm i was putting spaces... oh yea... forgo you dont need brackets
<7> I'm having a problem with my network on my laptop. I think my eth0 might be set as IPv6. I'm wondering how to change it to IPv4.
<9> Wamtys: uh
<9> you dont set what version, they both run at once
<7> btw, which linux version will PS3 have?
<9> it wont
<7> ?
<9> itll be a special Sony proprietary version
<9> if anything
<9> 99% chance it wont run linux
<9> well, WILL run linux with some hacking, but not as it ships
<15> where can i find the ldap schemas that pam expects?
<15> and is that the right way to ask that question?
<7> would I just run ifconfig eth0 netmask addr 192.168.0.99 ?
<7> in order to to ***ign a address?
<9> that wont work
<15> you need to actually put a netmask in there
<9> ifconfig eth0 <ip>
<9> that usually works, or you can set a netmask if you want, but generally you dont need to
<16> does anyone use tlswrap
<15> idle, doesnt ifconfig ***ign netmasks based on pre-CIDR rules?
<9> yes, and?
<15> so don't you need to ***ign a netmask
<9> whats your netmask for 192.168.0.99
<15> because pre CIDR netmasks are dumb
<9> uh...
<15> 255.255.0.0
<15> what is it for 10.0.0.1?
<9> are you sure?
<15> 255.0.0.0
<9> yes
<15> so you need to ***ign a netmask and a bcast
<9> 192.168.0.X is 255.255.255.0
<15> oh right
<15> 192.168 is the /24
<15> whats the /16?
<9> 99% of the time, thats right
<15> 172 something
<9> 172.{16-32}.X.X
<15> which RFC is that?
<9> no idea
<17> n0 J00 r wr4ang idol!!
<9> kekekeke!
<17> its so ****in hawt
<9> thats why I have a sunroof
<17> i should carry my sign out by the road
<17> but its hot, and im lazy
<18> anyone know what the difference is between htp***wd and htp***wd2 ?
<14> htp***wd2 probably goes with apache2
<19> What is the keyboard sequence for doing command completion from the history?
<8> tab
<8> XD
<19> nah
<19> I've seen it where you can actually pull commands you have typed from the history file with a keyboard shortcut
<19> like is I type "for name in `ls` do du -sh $name; done" I could type for and hit something and it woudl complete it
<19> and I'm not talking about the up and down arrow stuff
<19> it was something cool
<19> something like CTRL-R
<19> I'm using bash
<19> hard eh
<5> yes. ctrl r
<19> nah
<19> its better then that
<9> I've seen that before
<18> warwarj make sense (the htp***wd2 thing)
<19> any idea on how to do it?
<19> Its one of those cool tricks that when you see it, you're like man I'm going to remember that.
