Comments:

<0> you're welcome
<0> not that i did anything :)
<1> well, you tried ;)
<2> is anyone here running debian as part of a linux based Digital Audio Workstation (DAW)?
<1> streuner: one more question: which version of net-tools shall i reinstall? the etch's version is the latest one...
<3> !anyone
<4> Please do not ask if anyone uses <someprogram>. Instead, ask your real question. (If the real question _was_ "does anyone use <someprogram>?" ask me about <popcon> instead.) See <ask> <sicco> <ask-to-ask> <polls>
<2> Coweater: yea, but in instances where its rare, its pertinent to ask such a question.
<3> no it isn't
<0> no
<2> it's*
<5> abrotman ping
<3> just ask you real question, there's a good chance someone who isn't doing such a thing might have knowledge of it
<0> hi
<5> abrotman i need a important fast test about a security thing, i can posible to open you a private ?
<0> that was easy



<0> Thanatermesis: uhm .. probably better to ask here
<0> Thanatermesis: many eyes
<2> Coweater: fine looking to compile a custom kernel, and install either sid or etch packages for ardour, ultramixer, audacity, bpmdj...wondering if there's any breakage from compiling these softwares ( the users experience)....
<5> ok
<6> is there anyway I can put some kind of a limit on the upload speed of eth1?
<2> and also if there are any users using debian as part of a DAW that would recommend software similar (or better) than ardour for digital audio mixing and remastering.
<5> one sec
<7> wireddd: using tc, yes.
<0> wireddd: yes
<2> would've gotten many more responses with a generalized question.
<3> you got no responses...
<3> you're unlikely to see any breakage although i fail to see why you're bothering with compiling
<2> wondering whether anyone compiled the packages vs using the binaries and experienced and lower latency performance.
<3> compiled packages result in binaries... same difference only difference is the official ones are tested
<3> you would have to do extra optimizations to result in anything faster, and then yes there is a fair chance of breakage
<0> !gentoosmite unix_infidel
<5> abrotman ok, i have found the bug... i add users via one script using "useradd", and you set for example 12 chars for the p***word, but only the first 8 are accepted, if you put "qwerty1234" you can enter with "qwerty12"
<2> abrotman: never ran a source based distro in my life.
<5> with adduser i don't have this problem, any person knows WHY in useradd ?
<0> Thanatermesis: i've never seen that .. did you check the BTS ?
<5> no, let me check
<0> or rather . i've never noticed
<7> Thanatermesis: why in the world are you using useradd to set the p***word anyway?
<5> lol dondelelcaro
<5> just because im using it from a script
<8> if i want to compile the acx100 driver from source i download off the internet instead of from the .deb i can get using apt, do i extract the source tar into /usr/src/modules - just like the .deb does?
<7> Thanatermesis: there are far better things to use.
<5> i remember to i have needed this for add the p***word via the script (a variable) and adduser don't give me this option (or a very similar thing, i don't remember exactly)
<7> Thanatermesis: use chp***wd, not adduser.
<5> but the question is ... why make this ?
<7> Thanatermesis: because you're p***ing the crypt p***word, not the MD5 or DES p***word..
<5> uh
<7> Thanatermesis: man 3 crypt; and accheive enlightenment...
<9> |splat|: I think the instructions specifically tell you not to stick it in /usr/src but it has been a while since I built these.
<7> "The encrypted p***word, as returned by crypt(3)." "By taking the lowest 7 bits of each of the first eight characters of the key, a 56-bit key is obtained."
<8> the directions say /usr/src/linux/drivers/net/wireless/acx
<8> but that doesn't seem right to me...thats off the 'generic' tutorial
<7> |splat|: doesn't matter where you put it.
<5> :/
<5> *sigh*
<5> let me check how to i change this now...
<9> |splat|: I was building for a bespoke from source kernel (built with kernel package), and I just untarred and built in a subdirectory off $HOME
<10> : GPG error: ftp://ftp.nerim.net sid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 07DC563D1F41B907 - what do I do with this again? Could someone have the bot tell me?
<7> Thanatermesis: it's pretty simple... just use adduser, and then call chp***wd afterwards.
<7> !apt-key 1F41B907
<4> gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 1F41B907 ; gpg --export 1F41B907 | sudo apt-key add -;
<0> !tell foo about marillat key
<8> dondelelcaro: i still use the same make-kpkg kernel_image modules_image ?
<7> |splat|: that only works if you're using a Debianized module.
<5> yes dondelelcaro, thanks for the help :) i first make sure what is the reason of i have needed to use useradd, i think to its the p***word but no sure now
<8> so i need to do the "make modules_install"
<7> |splat|: you need to build the module against the kernel headers of the kernel that you're actually running. The module should have directions on how to do that.
<9> Bah why am I awake, I was answering a page to sort out some abuse on one of our webservers, when telewest decided it was a good time to mess up their maintainance of their core router.....?!?!
<8> dondelelcaro: that would be "installing outside the kernel"?
<7> |splat|: yes, which is what you have to do if you don't Debianize the module, or use the Debian module source package...
<8> dondelelcaro: i got acx100 by using 'apt-get install acx100-source'
<8> and it keeps telling me the module was compiled with gcc3.4 while i have gcc3.3
<8> i just compiled my own kernel w/ the module, and it seemed to have worked, but if i modprobe acx_pci i get a bunch of "disagrees about version of symbol *blah*"
<9> |splat|: the kernel and module must use same compiler version normally -- what does /proc/version say - then force that gcc version for the build
<8> i am su, /proc/version permission denied



<8> gcc --version says 3.3.5
<11> um, why are you trying to execute that?
<11> you probably want cat /proc/version
<8> ah
<8> gcc version 3.3.5 (debian 1:3.3.5-13)
<11> FYI, that was implied in "what does /proc/version say" from what gnufan said
<8> sorry, newb
<11> don't be sorry. we all learn
<8> this is my first 'real' linux install
<8> i put dsl on my old *** laptop...i decided to switch my desktop over when i corrupted the registry this weekend
<12> What modules do I need to be able to access a USB m*** storage device? I get the drive to show up as sg0, but I can't see any partitions on /proc/partitions...
<13> |splat|:welcome :0)
<8> thanks
<8> which this was going smoother
<8> wish
<13> it will jest have fun
<8> bah...just noticed i need 2.6.10 for the acx100 source...
<8> i have 2.6.8
<14> |splat|: have you read /msg dpkg madwifi-install ?
<0> !usb storage
<4> Load the 'usb-storage' and 'sd_mod' modules. Then your USB drive should appear as /dev/sda or /dev/sdb or something. Consult /proc/partitions to see if it has a partition table. Create an entry in /etc/fstab like: "/dev/sda1 /mnt/usb vfat user,noauto,noatime 0 0", and do "mkdir /mnt/usb". Then you can "mount /mnt/usb" and "umount /mnt/usb" at will.
<15> does anybody know what is the menuconfig name for this CONFIG_MEGARAID_MAILBOX kernel config option??
<8> stew: madwifi is for the atheros chip right? i have the ti acx
<5> dondelelcaro i don't very understand a thing... useradd use "crypt" for the p***word and this is the problem of the 8 chars... but i use this echo "$username:$userp***" | chp***wd for set the p***word of the user... this is wrong becuase the user has created by useradd also ?
<14> |splat|: oh, sorry, i got confused. /msg dpkg acx100 ?
<14> oh noes, i said sorry and now my productivity rating goes down!!
<14> :P
<0> stew: what's that f word that makes it go down?
<14> **** i can't remember
<8> stew: thanks
<16> How do I create a source package?
<14> pipeline: /msg dpkg mg
<16> stew: The NMG is silent on the subject of source packages.
<14> pipeline: oh, you mean like something for m-a? yeah, dunno
<17> Red Hat is now closed-source, right?
<16> stew: Heh, I just mean something suitable for a deb-src apt source.
<16> sandman: No.
<16> sandman: It's no longer free as in beer, but all of the SRPMs are freely available from Redhat...
<14> pipeline: then yeah you want the nmg
<14> pipeline: for deb-src you just need the .dsc .orig.gz and .diff.gz that are produced from following the nmg
<16> stew: Oh, well, that's very simple. Thanks.
<18> hallo
<14> pipeline: once you have produced those, you'll want to refer to the repository howto for making a repository for deb-src
<14> pipeline: /msg dpkg repository
<19> greetings... how do I use the debian DVD #1 to boot into linux using root= ? I installed windows on my first patition and of course it wiped lilo...
<20> the repository howto is quite outdated, isn't it?
<14> Nurbs: its working for me
<16> stew: Heh, I know how to make a repository and such. It's the simple stuff that's easy to overlook.
<20> stew: it doesn't talk about keys or incremental index updates for example, even though it's probably not too hard to get that information either...
<14> Nurbs: oh, that's true
<14> Nurbs: for that matter i think it barely if at all covers apt-ftparchive, but its still useful for getting a repository up and running
<5> why i have "*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x0804e900 ***" when i launch "who" ?
<13> awhobeewhatie??
<21> jshriver: just boot it, let it run up to the partitioning bit, then go to vt2 and do what you need to do.
<19> ? but dont I need to let the kernel know during boot which FS to use as root that way when I run lilo it's running it on the hard drive and not trying to use the CD
<22> is it impossible to get direct rendering in 24 bit mode?
<21> jshriver: chroot
<16> Thanatermesis, That's pretty scary. Have you been mixing stable with unstable?
<19> how do you use that?
<19> chroot /dev/hda3?
<23> hi, i installed debian last night.. but my video drivers were all messed up..how do i fix this?
<5> pipeline no :/
<24> !drxx
<4> methinks drxx is dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 [or xserver-xorg if you're using X.org]. Run it as root, and ask about xmd5 if you changed the configuration files yourself.
<21> jshriver: mount you parttition on a dir ( say /rescue) then chroot /rescue
<19> gn0m3, my best answer is... boot into knoppix and cpy /etc/X11/XF86Conf somewhere, boot up into your regular linux off the hard drive and move that file to /etc/X11/XF86Conf.. that's the easiest way I've found to get the best results out of X and video drivers
<19> liable, thanks will try brb
<25> is there a way of automating the sarge install so i dont have to be in front of the screen ?
<24> !knoppix
<4> Knoppix is _not_ Debian. Seek knoppix help in #knoppix. For those of you who don't know, knoppix is a livecd distro based on debian. It's useful as a rescue cd, to test hardware, and for situations where you have access to a computer but it doesn't run debian. http://www.knoppix.com/. Please go to #knoppix, or knoppix is no more debian than mandriva is redhat.
<26> my debian box won't ping an address, but can ping an IP just fine. anyone have any ideas as to whats up?
<21> roz: you have dns nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf?
<25> roz sounds like dns woes
<26> yep, and I can ping them just fine
