<0> hi
<1> I'm trying to ./configure UltimateIRCD on my debian box, when it asks me which c compiler I want I specify gcc and it says GCC is not installed or broken, it's installed. so how do I fix it?
<2> !b-e hydride
<3> hydride: Sounds like you need to apt-get install build-essential.
<4> The following packages have unmet dependencies: courier-authmysql: Depends: libmysqlclient12 but it is not installable <-- i can't seem to solve this, anyone have a clue, 'cause i don't :<
<2> !tell Jmax -about bat
<1> thanks dpkg, I'm new to Debian, been using FreeBSD for a while now
<3> hydride: de rien
<0> Is it ok I'll download the debian-31r1-i386-binary-1.iso
<5> so...anyone know why i receive that error ?
<0> to install?
<2> kyo: if you want; you could also just use the netinst image
<4> dondelelcaro: ok, sec
<4> dondelelcaro: http://rafb.net/paste/results/jjKcgz84.html
<0> I'm in other side my computer is in my house and I don't have internet there
<2> kyo: ah... then yeah, that's the one you'll want.



<2> kyo: you can use apt-zip or similar later to install the package syou want
<6> any GUI client to access webdav?
<2> !info libmysqlclient12 sarge
<3> libmysqlclient12: (mysql database client library), section libs, is optional. Version: 4.0.24-10sarge1 (sarge), Packaged size: 288 kB, Installed size: 548 kB
<2> Jmax: add yourself a sarge entry to your sources.list and install it from there.
<4> dondelelcaro: i've tried doing an update and upgrade/dist-upgrade... from what i can tell it's messing up because i have mysql 5.0 and courier-mysqlauth requires 4.x
<4> dondelelcaro: i'm in unstable.
<4> dondelelcaro: will it still help?
<0> I need to descompres the file or not?
<4> kyo: it's an image
<4> kyo: burn as an image
<2> Jmax: oh... you probably want courier-authlib-mysql then
<4> dondelelcaro: OK, thanks
<4> dondelelcaro: W: Unable to locate package courier-authlib-mysql
<2> !+info courier-authlib-mysql
<3> Package 'courier-authlib-mysql' does not exist.
<7> does anyone have an idea whether e2fsck's memory consumption depends on the used amount of a filesystem, or only on the size of the filesystem?
<4> dondelelcaro: that's experimental :S
<8> mmm... experimental
<2> Jmax: ah, right... sorry, forgot that I have that listed too
<0> ahhhhhh ok I descompressed the last I download
<9> hi, i was wondering if anybody knew the graphical disk managment equaivilant from Windows Disk Management Console (diskmgmt.msc) ? anything i can install via apt-get would be great.
<4> dondelelcaro: hm, can i just download that .deb and dpkg -i it?
<2> Jmax: anyway, you may be able to get by with just installing that from experimental until it gets to unstable
<2> Jmax: you can just add an experimental line; it'll only install packages that you explicitely select.
<4> dondelelcaro: thank you
<9> i checked gparted and qtparted but it doenst seem i can isntall them via apt-get
<10> are higher package version numbers determined by alpha-numeric sort?
<2> finley: it's more complex than that.
<8> oh man, if only :P
<2> finley: see dpkg --compare-versions if you want to know which way is which.
<10> can you explain or point to a reference doc?
<2> finley: policy has the reference, but the canonical implementation is dpkg --compare-versions; see man dpkg;
<9> anyone?
<10> i need to replicate apt's higher_version() picking decisions in another app
<2> !+info gparted
<3> gparted: (GNOME partition editor), section gnome, is optional. Version: 0.0.9-1 (sid), Packaged size: 307 kB, Installed size: 1244 kB
<2> finley: use libapt then
<10> i'll try man dpkg;
<2> (or call dpkg --compare-versions)
<10> dondelelcaro: i may do that
<10> heh
<10> i'll look at those two, thx.
<2> XSight: see above; you should be able to install it...
<0> if I descompressed it with winrar. I can Compressed it to use it as a image?
<10> been through apt.conf apt_preferences sources.list apt-cache, and sundry other man pages, but hadn't found a solid answer yet.
<7> is there a way to reduce e2fsck's memory consumption? I have problems checking a 200G partition with 64M of ram
<9> ohh SID, i dont have sid, i just installed WOody
<2> XSight: uh... you could try using at least the current stable...
<2> !+info gparted sarge
<3> Package 'gparted' does not exist.
<9> so i would have to update my apt source list? or does it get more complicated ?
<2> !+info qtparted sarge
<3> Package 'qtparted' does not exist.
<9> whops i meant sarge not woody
<2> *shrug*
<4> dondelelcaro: thank you very much.
<11> my son, 15, is becomming frustrated because he wants to play games on his computer. I've bought him a 1 ghz 256 mb computer and installed sarge. I want him to do homework on the pc, but he wants to play as well. Any suggestions?
<2> sondre: apt-cache search games; use xine.
<8> heh



<2> s/xine/wine/
<8> double-heh.
<9> sondre -> windows machine allows you to play most of the retail games out there, like world of warcraft
<9> maybe one day they will create world of warcraft for linux
<12> particular games?
<12> or just games?
<11> cs
<9> ya it depends on the game h wants to play. cs eh?
<2> I mean, what more do you need besides nethack, bzflag, tetrinet, etc...
<13> hrm I got a question I'm using a redirect service which works if I point my browser to the address however I cannot ping the address
<9> windows i would say cuz it's all ironed out and reayd to go if you have a decent video card.
<12> Your son can damn well learn to like nethack :)
<14> gnomines is so much better than the minesweeper on windows.... =P
<2> sondre: there are howtos on getting CS working with wine; he should search google and figure out how to get it to work
<11> nethack?
<12> hack-and-slash roguelike. Like diablo, but turn-based and with ASCII graphics
<9> i dont know about hte performance issues with wine however.
<8> haha
<12> oh, and 10000x better
<9> what with wine?
<11> any other games? Tried wine, fount it difficult..
<10> dondelelcaro: dpkg --compare-versions sure looks like it would work for me, i could invoke it from my $program
<2> there are a few thousand games...
<12> as well as console emulators
<15> \amethyst do not forget falconseye. or zsnes:)
<12> just nethack with fancy graphics, pah
<10> but, $buddy here claims that even then, there are corner cases that it doesn't catch, such as 0.9alpha1 vs. 0.9beta1
<2> there are even whole game creation systems, like crystalspace...
<16> hello, can i install debian "testing" from scratch while offline (without having to install the "stable" first and then dist upgrage) ? I have the full CD's of debian "testing" (not just the net boot) , but the debian-installer keeps asking for a mirror to get the packages from, how can this be solved ?
<17> sondre: sounds like a semi-modern system. i bet the hard-drive is big enough to install more than one OS. there are a lot more games for mac and windows than linux(unfortunately)
<15> \amethyst kids though... they like the graphics. seen planeshift?
<2> finley: we're talking about Debian versions here; so Developers know not to do things like that...
<12> I was 15 when I started playing Nethack
<9> theres tons of retail games you can play easily with windows because they were orignialy programmed for windows. i see that as the easy and troublefree way.
<10> my response exactly; that is considered a standard conclusion then?
<12> 13 or 14 for Rogue
<11> do i install nethack with apt-get?
<15> \amethyst :) i did not pick it up until about 24, or 25.
<12> shogunx: you're probably older than me
<18> dpkg --compare-versions 0.9alpha1 \< 0.9beta1 -> $? == 0
<2> finley: yeah, there are all sorts of cockamamie versioning schemes that upstreams come up with; in general it works just fine with sane ones...
<15> \amethyst 31 this year.
<12> shogunx: yup
<12> 25
<10> dondelelcaro: heh. thanks. i'll have another chat to run it through the $buddy devils-advocate filter, but I think that's a reasonable position, and therefore my solution. Thanks!
<2> stew: dpkg --compare-versions 0.9 '<' 0.9beta1; I think is the case that was being pointed out...
<18> ahh
<2> even if the initial example was wrong ;-)
<18> dondelelcaro: yeah, but i agree with your ***ertion about DDs knowing what they are doing...
<2> dpkg --compare-versions 0.9-1 '<' 0.9~beta1-1; is the way you do that properly...
<3> I think you lost me on that one, dondelelcaro
<2> stew: right
<10> dondelelcaro: cool example as reference.
<19> here have american people?
<2> finley: but basically it does devolve into sorting, it just separates the things to be sorted into tokens...
<10> dpkg: Ie: dpkg --compare-versions 0.9-1 '<' 0.9~beta1-1; _vs_ dpkg --compare-versions 0.9-1 '<' 0.9beta1-1
<12> Diversant: One would imagine so
<9> anybody know what window manager this guy is using? http://barosl.com/gallery/view_photo.php?full=1&set_albumName=misc&id=wow14
<17> how many original games are there for linux anyway? most ones i've seen are just clones of games from other systems.
<20> XSight: a higly themed gnome
<9> ya i saw the gnome aut didn't figure out how he got it nicely themed out
<12> inconspicuous: Depends on what you count as "original", and "for Linux"... do Unix games that predate Linux, but have been ported, count?
<21> Okay.. I'm trying to install a GPIB kernel module on my system. For this purpose, aptitude finds 'gpib-modules-source', and I installed it.
<9> still looks pretty clean cloing its apple look
<21> Problem is, it creates a /usr/share/doc/gpib-modules-source/ directory, and the README talks about a INSTALL file--- which I can't locate.
<22> any idea why i can't switch out of x using ctrl+alt+function key?
<21> And, I've searched, and searched, and I can't find any information on how to get at the source for this module, where it is, how to compile it.
<17> amethyst: well by 'original' i meant designed primarily for a *nix system.
<12> TheDracle: it probably put a .tar.gz in /usr/src/
<12> TheDracle: you'll need to unpack that
<2> TheDracle: dpkg -L gpib-modules-source; should clue you in... m-a -ai gpib shoudl also do the right thing...
<21> \amethyst, Okay :) Thanks.
<21> dondelelcaro, Awesome, thanks :)
<12> inconspicuous: How different from R-Type does a 2-D space shooter have to be to count as original? :)
