<0> Hello all
<1> i dont think so, whenever i try to open the root versions of programs, it asks for a p***word, then i have no idea what to do
<2> gravity: It depends on the version of knoppix?
<3> agtturnip: In your K menu there's an item that is a super-user terminal. I don't remember the exact name, but that's what you ened
<3> agtturnip: It's separate from the normal kterm
<2> !greet Eggplant
<4> Bonjour, Eggplant
<0> Anyone know of a issue with nmap that would make it not work via subinterface ip's to random units on the network?
<5> terminal (super user mode) or such
<3> simonrvn: Yeah
<1> ok
<0> TY unstable, dpkg
<6> what should i do now? :(
<2> Shin-Chan2: apt-cache search headers|grep 2.4.27-2
<2> Shin-Chan2: install the kernel headers?
<7> with xorg, ctrl + alt + (-/+) != resolution?
<6> hmm i'm not sure
<5> ascii: number pad +/-
<7> yeah
<6> but after apt-cache search headers|grep 2.4.27-2, i get a list of names
<7> :/
<1> ok, it asks me for a p***word... i dont know any p***word
<2> Shin-Chan2: apt-get install kernel-headers-2.4.27-2-386
<2> Shin-Chan2: Now type this as root "apt-get install build-essential ndiswrapper-source module-***istant && m-a a-i ndiswrapper"
<8> agtturnip in a non-root shell, can you run sudo su ?
<6> ok done, so ndiswrapper is now installed ?
<9> hi guys
<2> Shin-Chan2: I have no idea.
<2> !greet beetlepun_
<4> Tag, beetlepun_
<9> ~!smarthost
<6> err then what are the previous steps for ?
<1> whats sudo su?
<2> Shin-Chan2: You need to show me what is on your terminal screen.
<2> !tell Shin-Chan2 about paste
<2> Shin-Chan2: put it on a pastebin site, and paste the _link_ in here, so we can see it.
<10> is it possible to run games on wine?
<10> game like starcraft, etc
<9> \dpkg tells me that http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Mail-Administrator-HOWTO.html when I ask about smarthost, the tldp howto is stamped as of 2000, isn't this a little teenie old?
<1> ok.... so im kindof in root
<1> its locked, but all programs are in root... i think
<6> err i closed the terminal screen after "apt-get install build-essential ndiswrapper-source module-***istant && m-a a-i ndiswrapper" , i thought it was installed and done
<6> sorry :(
<11> apt: xorg 7.0
<12> is there a debian wiki
<9> Shin-Chan2, you can use the program screen, (and then use screen -RR)
<2> Shin-Chan2: Do you remember what it said?
<2> !tell vladuz976 about wiki
<8> agtturnip is gives limited root powers
<8> it*, sorry
<6> it was downloading and unpacking stuffs
<9> vladuz976, wiki? there are many wikis on google, the debian docs are in /usr/share/doc and man <cmd> (http://debian.org also has further reference docs online)
<2> Shin-Chan2: I don't know anything about ndiswrapper, try typing "modprobe ndiswrapper" as root maybe?
<6> then i typed exit twice to exit
<2> Shin-Chan2: I bet if you type /join #ndiswrapper right now, those people can help you better then I can.
<12> what exactly is a usenet newsgroup?
<12> just a bunch of mailing lists?
<13> no
<9> Shin-Chan2, there's a whole walkthrough online for ndiswrapper-- I've tried it
<9> Shin-Chan2, you have to know your chipset
<1> ok, and i tryed that grub update thing, not quite sure what im doing
<13> vladuz976, discussion forum
<6> i cant understand about the un-tar, tar, and etc
<6> i was using other OS all the time
<6> this my first attempt on linux/ debian :(
<9> Shin-Chan2, tar --help ->eg: tar -xzvf <filename.tar.gz> (-z is for gz), (-j is for *.bz2)
<13> tar joins many files into one big file called a tarball
<2> Shin-Chan2: Is this machine a production server, or a desktop?
<13> !tar
<4> Extract tar: "tar xf foo.tar"; Extract tar.gz: "tar xzf foo.tar.gz"; Extract tar.bz2: "tar xjf foo.tar.bz2"; tar extraction command hard to remember? use apt-get install unp; unp foo.bar; Create tar.gz: "tar czf foo.tar.gz directory"; Create tar.bz2: "tar cjf foo.tar.bz2 directory"
<9> wow dpkg is a good bot :)
<6> unstable > it's just a laptop that i'm trying to use it to learn debian
<14> hey - i've got a question about linux on the alpha. anyone game?
<2> Shin-Chan2: What wireless card is it?
<6> linksys wpc54g
<15> broadcom something
<2> !tell Blaxtic about anyone
<6> ya
<2> !tell Blaxtic about ask
<9> Shin-Chan2, tkman works well for gui hihi, or use shell and cmd -- tar,cpio are tricky at first hand.. join #bash.. some folks can help you out where to start
<1> ok...im giving up for tonight, thanks for the advice, hopefully i wont have to ask for help again
<12> are all debian packages i386 ?
<15> no
<9> vladuz976, i386 packages is for computers related to intel processor, and debian is available on +types of processors
<6> beetlepun_ > there's no user in #bash
<12> i understand that it's ported to different architectures but for the PC is it only 386 or are there 686 packages except for the kernel
<9> Shin-Chan2, haha, something's wrong with your connection, what irc server did you use?
<9> Shin-Chan2, or maybe the server is so busy..
<6> irc.freenode.net
<9> Shin-Chan2, what about #linpeople ##linux?
<9> Shin-Chan2, understanding linux in general should help you out, before dwelving what makes debian different
<6> hmm that's the problem :) i havent tried linux before
<6> this my first attempt and friend said i should start off with debian instead of knoppix
<15> I could help you get ndiswrapper working very quickly in a non-debian way, but that's probably not a good thing
<16> Is there any way to include debug symbols when building with apt-src?
<2> Shin-Chan2: Can you show me what lspci|grep -i linksys gives you?
<15> it won't show as linksys
<15> it's broadcom 4306 iirc from before
<2> Shin-Chan2: Can you show me what lspci|grep -i broadcom gives you?
<6> help me with whatever ways u know please :) i just wish to get that machine online first
<9> Shin-Chan2, well #debian is once you understand the basics of linux, otherwise I would strongly suggest #linpeople and ##linux, they'd be more helpful before asking decent debian questions worth time answering.. I think that would go for any distro.. basic linux then distro questions..no offense :)
<15> Shin-Chan2 try this first,
<15> apt-get install ndiswrapper-module-`uname -r`
<6> unstable > it says Network Controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g blabla
<2> Good call Kevin`
<15> also apt-get install ndiswrapper-tools, if that works
<2> Shin-Chan2: Your card is supported natively under linux -> http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/
<15> sorry, ndiswrapper-modules-`uname -r`
<6> apt-get install ndiswrapper-module-`uname -r` <-- doesnt work
<15> I forgot the s
<15> unstable that support isn't very stable last time I checked
<6> apt-get install ndiswrapper-tools <-- this doesnt work :)
<9> unstable, Kevin`, Shin-Chan2, no offense, but pretty much there are good walkthroughs after knowing that apt-get should work
<15> ndiswrapper-utils
<15> it must be late
<15> did the first one work?
<2> yea, I would grab from svn, He is using sarge, and one can only imagine how old the ndiswrapper code is
<6> yes now both of them works...and says is already the newest version
<6> beetlepun_ i tried the other two channels u suggested... no one seems to reply me either
<15> i'd have replied if I saw it heh
<15> Shin-Chan2 become root and type ndiswrapper -l or something
<9> Shin-Chan2, because it works, it's not 100%, there's a possibility there could be freezes, (rev# is important) and if your rev# is mentioned on the ndis site, report it that yours works ->http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/
<6> no drivers installed
<15> ok, do you have the (windows) driver for it?
<6> the .inf file ?
<15> yes, that and the other files it needs
<15> inf file is just a text file
<6> what are the other files ?
<9> Shin-Chan2, *ahem, you can use 7zip to extract InstallShield cabinet .exe files :) (this will extract the company's distribution exe that contains the .inf files)
<17> my mobile phone died, but not before I could export all my contacts as one long VCF card file... The problem is, it's just one long file tagged with "BEGIN:VCARD" and "END:VCARD" for each entry. Anyone know a quick sed/awk/vi/etc. trick to slice this up into individual files for each VCARD?
<15> depends on the driver
<6> i have the whole setup.exe in a winrar zip
<9> Shin-Chan2, you do it under linux with a cabextract tool
<9> Shin-Chan2, you can unrar and uncabextract it under linux..
<15> Shin-Chan2 once you get it extracted just go into the folder with the inf and other files and type ndiswrapper -i whatever.inf
<15> will work most likely
<16> FarrisG: do you really need separate VCF files?
<17> blujay: Well, anytime I try to import this big concacetenated file into my new phone (nasty Tmobile MDA, PocketPC) or Thunderbird, Outlook, Evolution, it treats it as one contact/vcard
<16> FarrisG: ouch. Well, there are many languages you could write a script in to do the splitting. awk could probably do it, for one, but I'm not enough of an expert to show you a one-liner.
<16> FarrisG: you could probably even do a bash script
<6> hmm how do i uncabextract?
<17> blujay: Well, here's the real bitch. I can actually get it to import individual contact in Evolution. But getting it into my phone is not happenin'
<16> FarrisG: how are you trying to get it into the phone?
<9> Shin-Chan2, it's a tool somewhere, apt-cache search cab extract
<18> i am trying to add the 2006 key and it's telling me that command 'add' isn't found
<18> i'm using the key from dpkg
<17> blujay: I just copied the file to the phone and then tried to import it through the Pocket PC contacts
<16> Can you re-export from Evolution into separate files?
<18> it's telling me that add is an invalid operation not an invalid command
<17> blujay: Yeah, one at a time. But that would take forever. I'm trying to fake it
<16> you can't multi-select and click export?
