<0> hi
<1> did someone know a text mode pdf viewer?
<2> nxvl: pdftotext
<3> liable?
<4> yos87_ in a terminal, type feh /path/to/images/
<5> worthy: yes
<3> ok
<3> how do i get my display back :-(
<1> Guerin: that convert pdf to text or is a pdf viewer?
<4> yos87_ if you want a graphical one, do apt-get install pornview
<6> how do I get all the files under /home/dna/files to burn to a cd under /dev/cdrom ?
<6> using cdrecord
<5> worthy: i really dont think you want to use etch. back up your **** and re-install at least untill you get to know how **** works.
<3> i would like to go back to xfree86
<0> zeeble: I install the other one
<0> zeebel: how to run it
<3> how do i back it up?
<5> worthy: you have a partition on there you can copy stuff to?
<4> yos87 told you. it works from the terminal..
<3> i have a dual boot but i don't know if i can put files on my ntfs partition
<4> dn4 http://www.linuxmigration.com/quickref/apps/cdrw.html <-- read up.
<7> worthy: I know you can read NTFS partitions without trouble
<3> yes
<7> but whether Linux's write support for them is ready for primetime yet I'm not sure
<7> I know my Knoppix boot disc (2.6.12?) doesn't like to mount NTFS rw
<5> worthy: did you just install xorg or have done an upgrade since?
<3> just installed
<2> nxvl: once it's text,you can view it.
<7> that's Knoppix, I know, but given that fs support is a kernel thing I'm ***uming Debian will be the same with 2.6.12
<5> worthy: ok, edit your sources list back to stable.
<3> good :-) give me those links please
<5> worthy: /etc/apt/sources.list
<7> btw, you might want to get used to xorg at some point
<5> worthy: open it with nano or vi or whatever you want to use.
<3> liable pico
<3> i know where the repositories are
<7> xfree86 is pretty much deprecated in debian, when etch is released it will be gone for good
<8> Can anyone recommend a VNC viewer for linux/debian that is free/GNU Lic?
<3> i need the stable links back in there
<3> what were they?
<1> Guerin: yeah, but thats not what i want
<5> worthy: changinge testing to stable, thats it.
<8> something that is apt-getable would be best
<3> explain liable?
<9> hi, anyone knows how to get configure parameters used by original debian binaries?
<3> how do i get it back to stable
<3> the repositories that i used to have in there are not there anymore liable
<5> worthy: in the sources list, change where it says testing to stable
<10> I have Xorg in stable
<3> ok just change the word
<10> Stable/Sarge*
<5> yes
<3> can i do taht from here?
<11> IRCMonkey_: what are you trying to do?
<11> glitchyone: Lic?
<12> is /etc/resolv.conf still the desired method to handle name resolution? (I see a package available that seems to replace it)
<9> hi chealer_, i build packages from source , but found they are much bigger than the one shipped with the system, so i want to know what happened.
<10> if anyone cares to bother but you can have a LSB/Xorg/2.6.12 Debian StableSarge if you really want
<2> Shai-tan: this is not news.
<10> I do know that
<10> Its just DCC as a base is so much better
<8> chealer_ Lic? what is that?
<3> brb
<11> IRCMonkey_: is it due to additional files being generated, or different sizes of those files?
<11> glitchyone: you said "free/GNU Lic"
<13> chealer_: i mean the file size of the generated binary executable
<8> chealer_ sorry yes I am looking for a VNC viewer for debian that is lic under GPL i ment
<8> sorry
<11> ddboy: try checking the Debian source package's debian/rules
<11> glitchyone: oh, license, I see
<14> Debian packages come with a copyright notice for each package, why don't you take a look?
<11> glitchyone: do you use a certain desktop environment?
<15> Hello
<16> man, can't overclock my Palm to 624MHz :( gets unstable
<16> oh well
<15> I've got rid of that awefull xdm, but now there is some other thing automaticly starting at boot. how can I get rid of that as well?
<17> !foozball
<18> rumour has it, foozball is we don't play that here
<16> dork
<17> zoof
<8> chealer_ gnome currently
<8> chealer_ but I am still playing and seeing what works for me
<11> glitchyone: I suppose tightvnc should be decent
<19> can i force gmplayer to display the frame number?
<19> (or not?)
<2> ejofee: don't use gmplayer, use mplayer in a console
<19> Guerin: and...?
<14> and RTFS
<2> ejofee: and ... look at the damn output, which is copious
<7> anyway, time for me to go to sleep
<19> jm_: answering me?
<3> im back liable
<14> ejofee: indeed
<19> Guerin: oh
<19> jm_: what's "s"?
<3> i changed all the words that said testing to stable in sources.list
<14> ejofee: Screen
<8> chealer_ Awesome looks like exactly what I need Thanks!
<19> jm_ :))
<5> worthy: apt-get update
<3> but i want my old respoitories listed back in it
<19> Guerin, jm_: thanks
<3> ok yes, i did apt-get update
<1> where can i try the new grafical installer?
<5> worthy: just wait untill we fix **** first
<3> ok
<2> nxvl: if you can't find them, you don't need them.
<5> worthy: unless you have upgraded, but we shall see..
<1> i dowloaded the netinstaler iso some time ago, but it has no grafical instaler
<3> i havn't upgraded since i switched to xorg
<2> nxvl: the gui installer is in development. Don't use it unless you're a developer.
<1> Guerin: no, i don't need them, but i want to try it, to look for bugs and report it
<1> oh ok ok
<5> worthy: apt-get remove xserver-xorg
<1> so there isn't yet a beta version of it
<20> nxvl: apparently they are *hoping* to get g-i into etch debian-installer beta 2. this isn't certain yet.
<2> nxvl: what is this 'beta' of which you speak?
<1> mmm a beta release
<3> ok brb
<2> debian doesn't have beta
<1> a development version released so that the comunity can try it
<11> Guerin: d-i has betas though
<14> Guerin: d-i has beta releases
<20> nxvl: if you don't speak an Indian language there might not be much point, though. the graphical installer doesn't particularly have any advantages, except ability to display difficult character sets
<2> chealer_: it has release candidates, don't it?
<11> Guerin: yeah, after betas. but g-i is still alpha I think
<14> graphical installer
<2> eh, they're called betas? Naff.
<14> Links to current images can be found in the Wiki.
<20> Guerin: d-i beta 1 for etch is out already, they're planning a beta 2. the rest of debian doesn't do that, though
<14> there
<3> ok liable im back
<10> Anaconda can be used if you want to make your own Debian/dist installer cd
<1> peterS: yos, i know, but if i try to make my friends install debian with text mode installer they will not use it
<2> eew, anaconda
<20> eeek, the Great Lord is here
<10> lolz
<10> yes I know
<2> anaconda is the reason d-i was written from scratch
<10> but still if you want GUI
<3> liable?
<20> nxvl: get some new friends (: if someone's afraid to install something just because of a few text screens they shouldn't be installing stuff (:
<5> worthy: why do you keep leaving?
<2> worthy: he's not your personal flunkie
<2> he's MY personal flunkie!
<3> so that i can go to my shell
<20> nxvl: it's not like it's *hard* to put a brick on your Enter key for the duration of the install and just watch the messages flash by
<5> hah, you wish!
<3> im not good with BitchX eiter :-/
<3> he said he would help me fix it Guerin
