<0> war92: you could just -x it ..
<0> war92: erm .. chmod -x :)
<1> k
<2> abrotman: so the equal for my 2.6.15-1 of apt-get source kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686-smp would be apt-get install linux-source-2.6.15
<2> ?
<0> E-bola: sure
<2> cuz it doesnt apear to unpack anything
<2> like the original cmd does
<0> E-bola: look in /usr/src/
<2> i am
<2> there's a kernel-image-2.6.8-i386-2.6.8 dir
<2> there's also kernel-source-2.6.8 and linux-source-2.6.15 dirs
<3> can anyone help me track down a tex upgrade fault - it's failing to configure after unpacking, fmtutil is saying: 'Fatal format file error; I'm stymied',
<0> check the bts
<3> I have, there's nothing I can find
<3> http://lists.debian.org/debian-tetex-maint/2005/04/msg00147.html mentions my problem,
<3> but that was a year ago, so it _must_ have been fixed by now
<4> E-bola: why not try dpkg -L linux-source-2.6.15
<5> Folks, /etc/modprobe.d/foo seems not be read on boot; what to do?
<2> onetinsoldier: its already installed
<5> abrotman, modutils didn't work with 2.6 kernel...
<2> i just dont see it in /usr/src
<0> monaco: hrm .. works for me
<5> abrotman, are you using etch?
<3> here's a recent comment on the problem http://lists.debian.org/debian-tetex-maint/2006/04/msg00167.html
<4> E-bola: i just did a apt-get install of it too because i need to compile my own kernel. then i did the command i suggested... looks like it gives you... /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.15.tar.bz2
<6> algum brasileiro??? preciso de ajuda
<7> !br
<8> Esse canal e apenas em ingles. Por favor, use #debian-br (/j #debian-br) para ajuda em portugues.
<7> vincint: ^^
<5> abrotman, I found this on the web "Modprobe has changed between 2.4 and 2.6. The old information my /etc/modutils and /etc/modules.conf is not read under 2.6" http://www.disaggregate.com/blog/technicalweblog/archives/000010.html
<6> ok
<2> onetinsoldier: yes
<2> i got that too
<4> that not what you were looking for? sorry
<2> acording to my guide, i need a debian/rules file
<2> inside the dir i seem to be missing
<4> oh
<2> the kernel-image-2.6.8 have this file
<3> seems that #362075 says, purge and reinstall xmltex
<0> monaco: man modprobe should tell you where to go .. i guess .. but like i said .. it seems to work for me
<5> Does anyone know how to make /etc/modprobe.d/* be read on boot with a 2.6 kernel (etch)? I read the man's, but nothing yet. Any missing kernel option?
<3> monaco: doesn't it happen by default?
<9> monaco, is the firmware your are tring to load on a filesystem that is not mounted yet?
<5> Groundy, I think it should, but it's not. Only after boot, when I run modprobe foo it works; not after boot.
<10> monaco: did you run update-modules after you changed /etc/modprobe.d/* ?
<5> aredhel, modeprobe foo works; it does not work automatically on boot thoguh
<5> protonchris, should I? isn't it just for modutils (2.4 way of doing things?)
<3> monaco: normally I put stuff in /etc/modules
<9> monaco, right and on boot mountall happens after modprobe I think
<3> monaco: ahh, modprobe.d is only for modprobe _options_
<3> it's not for auto probing on boot
<3> (well, it wasn't in 2.4 afaik)
<4> i see.. you wanting to use the 'kernel-package' package?
<10> monaco: your right.
<5> Groundy, I have module-foo in /etc/modules; but my module requires me to run a firmware-loading scriopt in modprobe.d
<3> if you want something to modprobe on boot add it to /etc/modules?
<3> okay,
<4> E-bola? are you wanting to use the 'kernel-package' package?
<4> my mouse is not workingon bootup.i have to modprobe mousedev and hid and then start up gpm. i put mousedev and hid into /etc/modules but no change. any ideas anyone?
<11> Hi. I'm doing an hd-media installation of debian testing. It currently fails at "Installing the base system", saying "Debootstrap Error \n Failed to determine the codename for the release"
<3> monaco: you mean you need to run some shell script before the modprobe?
<2> onetinsoldier: i think i missed the first part of the page
<2> it says the new way to do this
<11> .. what can I do about that?
<2> is using the module-***istant
<2> seems 10x easier
<2> its running atm, i hope it works
<5> Groundy, just after, actually; the module loads, then the scripts upload the firmware; the module INSTALL file tells so.
<4> E-bola: roger.. i'l have to look at that! i've use the kernel-package a long time ago.
<5> Groundy, it suggest to use modeprobe.d; it works. but only if I call by hand
<2> wow
<2> module-***istant is super cool
<2> never used it before :)
<5> Groundy, I thought that it would work also on boot
<3> what's in the file you're adding to modprobe.d?
<5> install module-foo /sbin/modeprobe --ignore-intall; firmware_upload.sh
<5> modeprobe module-foo works
<2> hmmm it fails :/
<3> maybe path?
<3> stick the full path to fireware_upload.sh in the file
<5> do you think there can be a different path if I call by hand or on boot?
<12> what is the most current version of the kernel?
<5> well, I'll try full path
<3> monaco: yes, the PATH variable is probably different,
<7> acetech: kernel.org
<3> where's the firmware_upload.sh script?
<5> Groundy, rebooting to test PATH then; see ya when back from boot
<5> Groundy, /sbin
<12> asg: when i go there it shows the most current stable kernel but it is only a patch?
<3> monaco: and where's it's data?
<3> monaco: i.e. where are the firmware data files?
<5> /lib/firmware
<12> asg: is that the one i should download?
<7> acetech: it depends on what you are trying to do
<3> okay, and that's all mounted when the module loads?
<12> asg: i just want to compile the most kernel, preferably something that has patches on it already
<5> Groundy, i have only one partition. Anyway, is there any log of modules loading?
<11> ...okay, seeing as no one has answered my question, where can I poke a bloke who knows about this in the eye? IOW, where can I get help?
<3> monaco: not sure, probably just /var/log/somewhere
<7> acetech: which patches? There are thousands of non-official kernel patches.
<5> Groundy, I tried messages, syslog.... but... well, I'm gonna try PATH and be back after reboot.
<12> asg: in general just a debian patches kernel for security updates and stuff
<3> monaco: dmesg if you're lucky
<3> monaco: cool
<5> Groundy, sure! see you soon
<2> Stuff i remove inside /usr/src cant make my system unbootable right?
<2> i mean its not required for anything besides creating new stuff?
<3> E-bola: correct
<2> ok, just making sure :)
<3> E-bola: ***uming you did a 'standard' install by copying the kernel to /boot
<3> E-bola: and the modules to /lib/modules/ etc
<13> what's the best way to get nvidia-glx on testing at the moment?
<7> acetech: then get the kernel-source-* or linux-source-* package depending on which version of Debian you are running
<12> asg: i am running etch
<3> E-bola: or you used the kernel-installer script
<7> acetech: apt-cache search kernel-source ; apt-cache search linux-source
<14> I still can't get Debian to install. I'm getting md5sum errors, but the disc is good. amd64, 31r0a, DVD
<7> owenh: try #debian-amd64
<12> asg: it is 2.6.15 which is unstable
<3> owenh: maybe it's the hardware in the pc you're installing to :-)
<2> k /usr/src cleared completely
<14> asg: I have; I'll try again, though.
<2> trying again
<2> Shame its so hard getting loop-aes working
<14> Groundy: Thanks, thanks! Very helpful! Except that I've never had problems with Plextors...
<3> owenh: I mean maybe it's the hardware in the PC :-P not the cd,
<7> acetech: what do you mean that 2.6.15 is unstable?
<14> Groundy: Uh, you mean something other than the DVD or DVD drive?
<4> my mouse is not workingon bootup.i have to modprobe mousedev and hid and then start up gpm. i put mousedev and hid into /etc/modules but no change. any ideas anyone?
<3> owenh: are you buring and installing on the same pc?
<12> asg: odd numbers at the end indicate it is unstable
<14> Groundy: Yes.
<3> owenh: blegh, then it's probably not the hardware :-)
<14> Groundy: DVD tests fine with dvdisaster on Linux running on same PC.
<3> owenh: have you checked the md5 of the burnt cd?
<14> Groundy: Checks fine in running Linux, but fails integrity check in installer.
<7> acetech: the 2.6.x series has changed the meaning of the numbering. Also, etch isn't stable but testing. Finally, it seems that every 2.6.x kernel that comes out is worse than the last.
<3> wierd,
<14> Groundy: I've tried disabling dma and limiting memory to 512M (1G installed).
<14> Groundy: Although not both at the same time...
<3> owenh: do those settings make such a difference these days?
<4> asg: well what's the best 2.6.x kernel? i want to compile a kernel. should i just stick with 2.4.27? right now my 2.4.27 kernel takes a crap on meif i try to start kdm or do a startx. i have yet to get x-windows going... arrghh.
<14> Groundy: Not usually
<3> owenh: the iso might be dud, but unlikely
<15> onetinsoldier, just get the latest one
<15> i would be careful about blaming the kernel for X not working, though...
<14> Groundy: I've tested the iso by downloading it again (to the same file) with torrent. I've also checked the md5sum of the iso.
<7> onetinsoldier: it depends on what you are using it for.
<3> owenh: is it a particluar file, or all of them?
<7> brick: unless he has some non-free nvidia/ati crap causing issues
