<0> hi
<1> OldakQuill: Yeah. When the kernel is compiled for an architecture / or using instructions on a chip that's unsupported on that box. Examples being, a 486 trying to run a linux binary that's compiled for a Pentium.
<1> OldakQuill: (apply example to any of the generations of newer chips with incompatible instruction sets -- generally just make sure the kernel is compiled for the correct processor / architecture)
<2> Trying to install x86 on Intel M 730... THAT SHOULD BE ok?
<2> *caps
<3> i have debian installed with the video driver by sis. My onboard vga chipset is by sis, now when i log into Gnome my max res is 800x600 on a 19" CRT monitor in which i use at 1200x1200 when in windows. Anyone got any ideas as to why i cant get over 800x600?
<4> chance2105: that cause is highly unlikely for a recent machine and a kernel from distribution. I'd bet on acpi problems.
<5> lightcap, are they for security or regular apt
<6> curt: sorry?
<1> die-Sel: run "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86" as root, and in the configuration, be sure to include the resultions you want to use (I include once resolution higher than what I use there)
<5> lightcap, security key is different
<5> !security
<7> Put "deb http://security.debian.org stable/updates main contrib non-free" in your /etc/apt/sources.list file to keep up-to-date on security updates in stable. Run "aptitude update" and "aptitude upgrade". If you're still running woody, consider "deb http://security.debian.org/debian-non-US stable non-US/contrib non-US/main non-US/non-free" for non-us security, or ask me about testing security or unstable security
<6> hmm
<3> thk chance2105 ill give that a go
<6> how do I tell if its from security



<8> lightcap: I get the same error and I've been using secure apt for year++
<1> Dang, I should forget trying to type with correct spelling, really ..
<5> lightcap, the warnings would say
<9> my debian box does not recognize my dvd bruner i just installed. i have debian sid.
<5> !hardware
<7> Before buying -any- hardware, make sure it's supported by all operating systems you want to use. See: the hardware howto. Ask me about howtos. or if you ask "Hey, why does my card **** so much in Linux," we have to say, "because your card manufacturer can't decide whether they're in the hardware or software business.", or check http://lhd.datapower.com/, http://linuxhardware.net/ and http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Hardware-HOWTO.html
<8> lightcap: i just tried a different mirror and everything worked fine
<10> hi
<6> no, this one was not security
<11> jason_: which kernel?
<9> 2.4xxx
<10> anyone have a handy link to the kernel patches of -testing?
<6> hmm
<11> jason_: exactly
<6> I just recently changed my mirror, but I got it before that too
<11> jason_: whcih one exactly
<9> 2.4.27-2-386
<11> jason_: scsi or ide device?
<9> ide
<1> OldakQuill: if you're runing just the installation kernel, then yes -- jelly-ho is probably right, and you need to disable acpi on boot
<12> I need to set a aplication to use ALSA instead of OSS, OSS is /dev/dsp right? what about alsa ?
<13> Virtual: alsa applications do not use device nodes
<13> Virtual: the use libasound
<12> valdyn: then how do I describe the alsa to that application ?
<13> Virtual: to _which_ appliation ?
<9> tarzeau, its ide, and the error says "soruce can't be read."
<12> valdyn: cedega
<13> Virtual: select alsa, pick the device 'default'
<0> someone knows howto install q3 on AMD64?
<14> amang: modprobe snd-intel8x0
<15> I have the latest gpg 2006 but when running 'apt-get update' in unstable I keep getting 'GPG error: ftp://ftp.debian.org unstable Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 010908312D230C5F ' Anyone know the solution to this?
<13> !topicsmite relaxed
<7> And the wrath of /TOPIC descended with terrible fury upon relaxed. And all the people marveled, saying, Behold, we too should read the /TOPIC, lest we be stricken. And all the people read the /TOPIC, and went away edified.
<16> _X-Treme: thanks
<15> valdyn: what?
<17> relaxed: read teh topic
<1> relaxed: Uh, look at the topic.
<12> valdyn: if I select alsa I have to set CTL Device and PCM Device and both are set to "hw" but when I run the game I want I have no sound
<18> valdyn: I have a new problem now. The Windows option disappeared from GRUB!
<19> can anybody help: i trying to run apt-get update,but get error about invalig GPG key.But i get new key! (gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 2D230C5F ; gpg --export 084750FC01A6D388A643D869010908312D230C5F | sudo apt-key add -).Why apt-get update not working?
<17> DwyaneWade: and thats a problem? :)
<18> so what to do to get it back?
<1> hahaha
<15> Ronin chance2105 , I read the topic and /msg'd dpkg 2006 key but I still get the error running apt-get update.
<13> DwyaneWade: look at /boot/grub/menu.lst, one windows option might be there commented out
<9> tarzeau, also, just so you know, it CAN play audio Cds, so perhaps its that persky libdvdcss file
<20> Hi, I just tried to install etch. After the base installation was done, I selected to install a desktop environment but there the installer hangs because of some apparent problems. Is this a known issue?
<20> And more important: Is there a solution?
<18> valdyn: it isn't
<18> should i copy it from the menu.lst~ ?
<21> Broxtor: what apparent problems?
<11> jason_: wrong device?
<11> jason_: what says dmesg about it?
<18> it appears it's been completely removed, there are only 4 lniux boot options, 2 for each kernel
<20> cheal: Something with dependencies of locales
<20> cheal: and if choose the printserver also with cups-sys
<20> cheal: for the record: I did a network install
<18> this line: # This entry automatically added by the Debian installer for a non-linux OS # on /dev/hda1 completely disappeared
<21> Broxtor: can you paste the first line(s) of the problem?
<14> DwyaneWade: yes copy it from menu.lst~ before ### BEGIN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST
<20> cheal: Then I would have to start the installation again from scratch.



<21> Broxtor: if the problem only appears when you install some task, you could install none and trigger the problem by running tasksel
<20> cheal: I don't know tasksel, but I will look into it. Thanks for the tip.
<18> loggygreg: in the original file it was the last, but i presume it doesn't make much importance
<22> How do I specify which interface to use for certain programs on a two-interface box? In this case I have wlan0 and eth0, but want to try ssh over eth0
<13> DwyaneWade: windows boot instructions are in the documentation too
<15> I ran the command from '/msg dpkg 2006 key' and it reports 'gpg: key 2D230C5F: "Debian Archive Automatic Signing Key (2006) <ftpmaster@debian.org>" not changed' because I already had it installed. I still get 'W: GPG error: ftp://ftp.debian.org unstable Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 010908312D230C5F' after running 'apt-get update' on unstable. Please help me.
<23> Hi all. does anyone knwo why I get a hdc: media error (bad sector ) when I try to copy files from a cdrom to my comp?- only on some files
<18> !2.4 alsa one-liner
<7> well, 2.4 alsa one-liner is to install alsa on a 2.4 kernel: apt-get install alsa-base alsa-utils alsa-modules-$(uname -r) && alsaconf ; if you are using a 2.6 kernel ask me about <alsa one-liner>, or after its installed, run alsamixer and unmute the volume levels
<15> jlamr: the cd might be scratched.
<22> jlamr, your CD could be faulty, your drive could also be faulty
<23> yeah, but it works in a windows box fine?
<24> What does this mean??? The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 010908312D230C5F Debian Archive Automatic Signing Key (2006)
<24> when running apt-get update?
<15> roler: I get that too
<24> relaxed, I just started getting it today. I don't like it. :)
<25> what's with all the people who haven't gotten the new key today?
<25> oh, sarge updated to use sigs or something?
<15> I tried 'apt-key update' but that didn't fix it.
<25> check topic
<15> zinx: I did, no help.
<25> "no help."?
<15> I have the latest key installed already.
<24> zinx; the topic error is different. I had that when 2006 struck
<26> For some strange reason my Internet connection works intermittently now
<21> zinx: no, sarge does't use keys and won't
<2> Would grub present any problems in an XP/Debian dualbooted system off the same disk?
<26> It used to work all the time but now if I turn on my computer and boot, it doesn't work but only if I shut it back off and turn it back on it works
<26> It was after I installed a bunch of stuff from synaptic
<25> roler: maybe someone goofed signing it
<25> or maybe someone broke in :D
<27> What is going on with the gpg keys...there is nothing in the topic dondelelcaro
<15> OH NOES
<14> OldakQuill: no
<25> there is information on how to get the 2006 key in the topic..
<21> zinx: some mirrors are broken today, but the archive doesn't update on demand
<25> or, at least, information on how to get the information
<26> also when I shut it down it says, unloaing bittorrent client. The thing is the bittorrent client never gets loaded in the first place (I checked under rcconf)
<15> zinx: it has nothing to do with the 2006 key
<26> Any ideas?
<28> hi all
<28> my BIND server is sending 'server failed' messages after certain queries. does anyone know how to get it to report what error was encountered?
<25> relaxed: well
<25> relaxed: use a different mirror
<26> Well there are now upgrades with synaptic, hopefully that will fix it
<24> zinx; so if I wait a few days maybe it will start working?
<25> roler: yes.. or if you use a different mirror..
<15> I was just checking in to see if it was pebkac. I'll wait it out ;-)
<25> debian.csail.mit.edu's working, but it's only amd64 :D
<1> Are bugfixes ever released into stable, or is it stringently security-only patches?
<29> chance2105: yes, they are, ***uming the fix is deemed sufficiently important
<29> chance2105: and doesn't break anything else
<24> zinx; yup that did it
<24> thanks zin
<23> Can anyone tell me the command to insert 'ls' output into a file
<30> ls > file
<31> is there some way to get grep to look for a multiline fixed string sourced from a file? (think '-Ff' but the file is all one pattern, not one per line)
<32> hello, what's gtk+-devel called in debian ?
<31> cyberwolf__: gtk2-dev probably
<23> Thanks marculix
<33> isn't there ifupdown script for Debian? I have to manually start my wifi and dhcp after login with a bash script. It would be nice if there was a script taking care of it.
<1> syntaxis: Good. I'm reading the FAQs for the first time (after running Deiban .. forever ago and then coming back to it recently) and it seems kinda ambiguous about it. One paragraph says "major usability fixes" and the next says "only security".
<32> oki
<31> cyberwolf__: apt-cache search gtk devel
<31> !tell beered about interfaces
<34> hi, how can i prevent xwindows from starting on startup?
<31> !tell Axioms_101 about nodm
<29> chance2105: if you feel it's inconsistent, by all means file a wishlist bug against debian-www
<33> Is /etc/network obsolete now?
<31> beered: noooooo, heck no
<24> What is /dev/shm in the df command? Do I need it?
<31> roler: ramdrive, and it's handy
<35> hi everybody
