<0> hi. I'm trying to mount a reiserfs partition so that i don't need to be root to access it. Does anybody know how to do this? There don't seem to be any uid/gid options you can p*** to mount like there is for ext3 etc
<1> something along the lines of -o umask=000
<1> should work
<0> afaik there is no such option for reiserfs partitions
<1> did you try -o umask=000
<0> yep
<1> weird
<0> yea. i just dont know how to do this with reiserfs lol
<1> what error does it give you
<0> 'bad option'
<0> if u check out the man page for mount, it also says that there isn't any option like that...

<0> lol
<0> i dont have mtab installed
<0> and my fstab entry looks like his
<0> so i don't know ...

<2> thnx
<4> I run Ubuntu 6.06 through Parallels. I haven't run the virtual machine in about 3 days (was working fine then) and went to boot it up and started getting these errors in this order:

<4> anyone know what's going on in these?
<3> i suggest modifiying the bootloader arguments to remove 'quiet' and 'splash' settings, this will give you a more verbose startup output, which would allow you better diagnosis of the problem
<3> looks like you should check out your /etc/default/rcS file as well, looks like someone edited it with the wrong syntax
<3> i'd be more worried about the I/O errors you have
<5> hey guys.. I'm having trouble getting my broadcom wireless nic to work... I've read like everything I can find -- also tried ndiswrapper - and the bcm43xx kernel support...
<5> everytime I put the firmware files into /lib/firmware and restart my network the computer freezes.
<3> livesN[bo, i suggest you find out the exact model of your wireless card, google something like "broadcom pc404 linux" to find out it's kernel module and results to show what others who have the same hardware have done to get the card working under linux
<6> can anyone offer some help with getting my broadcom wireless adapter working?
<3> livesN[bo, i suggest you find out the exact model of your wireless card, google something like "broadcom pc404 linux" to find out it's kernel module and results to show what others who have the same hardware have done to get the card working under linux
<6> I did that - been working on this for like 4 days now
<3> what model do you have?
<6> I wouldn't have come to IRC unless I was COMPLETELY out of ideas
<6> Broadcom Corporation BCM4309 802.11a/b/g (rev 02)
<6> lspci -n: 14e4:4324 (rev 02)
<3> what laptop is this, dell d800?
<6> yep - latitude d800
<6> I've tried 2 or 3 different firmwares -- used the bcm43xx-fwcutter to extract the .fw files..
<6> because I see in dmesg that it's looking for some files when it's trying to init my card
<6> so when I add the files to /lib/firmware and restart my network - the PC freezes..
<3> this guy got it working http://arclite.dyndns.org:8080/~chris/d800/d800.html , see his setup, it uses ndiswrapper as well
<3> just trying to see if linux natively supports it
<6> Perhaps I need to rip out the kernel support before I use ndiswrapper..
<6> ndiswrapper -l reports driver is installed and hardware is present..
<3> can you bring up an ip for the interface using iwconfig?
<6> nope
<6> I am thinking ndiswrapper should show up as wlan0 in iwconfig -- but I don't have that available.
<6> I do have eth0, eth1, sit0 and vnic0
<6> eth1 is my wired connection
<6> no idea what eth0 is.
<3> it'll tell you if you just do 'iwconfig', it should say whether or not the devices have wireless extensions
<3> i haven't done much wireless work myself sorry
<6> ah.. they all so no
<6> say*
<3> so what happens when you 'modprobe bcm43xx' ? It doesn't recognise the card? (dmesg |tail)
<6> nothing shows up in dmesg
<3> If bcm32xx driver doesn't find your wireless device and ***ign it an interface (e.g eth1, eth2), and the ndiswrapper function doesn't work either (though remember, it has worked for others using the same laptop), then i suggest removing all the changes you have done and follow a guide like this: http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/wiki/index.php/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch13_:_Linux_Wireless_Networking
<3> you said you have eth0 and eth1, i thought the d800 only came with one network interface, if that's the case, one of those interfaces is your wireless interface
<7> ehe
<6> hmm.. this seems odd
<6> nm.
<6> I really think I might need to get the bcm43xx support out of the kernel
<6> can anyone help me do that ?
<6> by that I mean -- remove it from the kernel and recompile..
<3> just 'rmmod <module name'
<6> trying it now :)
<3> that'll remove the module from the running kernel, though on reboot, the bcm module may be autoloaded. You can get around that, but deal with one thing at a time
<6> ok here goes..
<6> well.. didn't lock up :)
<6> but.. still nothing..
<7> lol
<8> hey, got a problem here with dapper drake
<8> trying to get wireless working if nayone can ***ist me
<3> http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/wiki/index.php/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch13_:_Linux_Wireless_Networking
<3> or try wiki.ubuntu.com
<8> thanks, but it is a wierd problem i can see the card in the network settings, but when i do and ifconfig eth1 doesn't show up nor does it show up in the "network tools"
<8> and = an
<7> iwconfig
<7> not ifconfig
<7> and chech if your card is detected as a wireless card
<8> it sees it
<8> but a lshw shows that it is disabled
<7> iwscan <device>
<7> iwconfig essid <set>
<7> iwconfig <device> essid <set>
<7> iwconfig <device> Mode Managed
<7> udhcpc <device>
<7> there
<7> thats should do it
<7> or you got a wep key?
<8> i found the problem now
<7> hmm k?
<8> its a latitude d600, and it has a power management thing where it turns off the wireless card
<7> that sux
<8> i ahve to figure out how to turn it on
<8> ewer laptops come with features to disable the wireless radio to save battery when not in use. Usually this is switched by a FN+Fx key combo or specific button for the purpose. It is possible driver and everything is ok but the wireless device is in the disabled state and can't be used. Using the designated key(s) in linux sometimes does not work.
<7> powermanagmedt for pci ports?
<8> that is the exabt problem
<7> ?
<7> but then they will just lose their power management
<7> not turn it off?
<7> i think you should try doing the iwconfig way
<7> and if it is "off" it will show in iwconfig
<7> or else, it would not be detected at all
<8> yea
<8> bbias
<7> ?
<8> thanks sin
<8> but i gotta get some sleep before work tomorrow
<8> i appreciate your help
<7> did it work?
<8> nope
<7> LoL
<7> :P
<8> these things happen
<8> thanks though
<7> yeah, o would have liked a error output, but since you got to go
<7> bye
<2> why is ubuntu so slow compared to my winxp on the same box?
<2> is there some things i can do to speed things up?
<7> how slow?
<7> at booting, at starting program, at running programs, at running 3d figures or overall
<2> like when i hit a button it takes like a second before i get a response
<2> at starting programs
<2> at going to webpages
<2> like going to a new webpage
<7> oh noes
<7> did you also notice that when the program is started it doesnt take ages to get it fully functional?
<2> oh noes?
<7> hmm
<2> are there any optimizations i can do?
<7> so when you are typing on ubuntu, the keys lag?
<2> no it doesnt lag when i type
<2> well anyways i guess ill just live with it
<2> but how do i get divx for ubuntu?
<7> godseyevi: as i tried to explain by putting up the example "how long it takes to get it fully functional" indicates that ubuntu does something when you hit a buttion or program sortkey
<7> it just doesnt show you untill the last stage (gui exec)
<7> infact it goes faster than xp, you just get the illution that it goes faster in xp becaus they start the "gui" first
<7> godseyevi: install the gstreamer codecs
<2> how do i install the gstreamer codecs?
<7> first you enable multivers
<2> ok i did that
<2> then run update manager?
<7> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs
<2> how do i get a new server window in xchat irc?
<7> window or tab?
<2> tab i suppose
<2> or window
<2> i just need to connect to freenode too
