<0> Knoppix is _not_ Debian. Seek knoppix help in #knoppix. For those of you who don't know, knoppix is a livecd distro based on debian. It's useful as a rescue cd, to test hardware, and for situations where you have access to a computer but it doesn't run debian. http://www.knoppix.com/. Please go to #knoppix, or knoppix is no more debian than mandriva is redhat. don't forget to ask me about <Based On Debian>
<1> Eclipser: for composing, rosegarden4, for synth timidity, hydrogen is a nice drum machine that you can later import into rosegarden
<2> Sought help in #knoppix. No help there.
<3> welp, i don't know why it isn't dynamic, can't help ya out, sorry.
<1> JohnP789: your questions are off-topic here. try #knoppix later, or try a knoppix mailing list
<2> OK, thanks.
<4> stew: rc xfs 1.0.1-4 X font server
<5> stew: modrobe ipw2100 comes up with thi s message FATAL: Module ipw2100 not found.
<1> mango: you have a 2200 not a 2100, right?
<1> lopuz: then its not suprising. that path isnt' found becuase xfs isn't installed
<4> hm
<1> well time for me to try the xorg7 business
<5> stew : no i have a 2100
<6> stew, your link guided me through, thank you. But how do I prefer one dhcp server to another?
<7> stew, etch hydrogen looks a lot better than what Iremembered from sarge :)
<7> stew, I never really liked rosegarden though, but I'll try it again
<4> stew: when i try to install it, it says that it depends on some packages which may not be installed
<4> stew: libfs6 and libxfont1
<8> hmm, what would be the console [as in logged in with ssh] equiv of xconsole?
<8> nvm. silly question. cat /dev/xconsole
<9> please can you explain me what is the problem with xorg7 on sid?
<10> hello people. i would like to use my greec-keyboard. But if I do a 'setxkbmap -model pc105 -layout gr -variant basic' I get a 'Error loading new keyboard description'. Anyone knows what I'm doing wrong?
<11> is someone using perl panel? how can i adjust the width of the panel? i use xinerama and i want the panel to be only on one screen?
<5> stew: it is a ipw2100 any clues please
<1> X -version -> X Window System Version 7.0.0
<1> \o/
<12> \o/
<13> asg@rob:~$ X -version
<13> X Window System Version 7.0.0
<14> I am trying to reconfigure X since it doesn't work whether I install Etch or Sid. I ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but have know Idea what parameters to put where.
<13> \o/
<12> Yay!
<13> gravity: the only issue I had was the movement of /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc and the artwiz fonts being in the wrong place. Easily fixed.
<1> gravity: i had to pull in driver packages for my card/kbd/mouse i'm guessing that is expected, and the font paths changed from /usr/lib/X11/fonts to /etc/X11/fonts
<1> well i also had to dist-upgrade and apt-get -f install like 5 times in order to get everything upgraded, but i don't think that is the fault of xorg
<14> My stuff is Widescreen XGA with Trubright Technologhy. Graphics Media Accelerator 950 and 8MB-128MB dynamically allocated shared graphics memory.
<1> mango: do did you have problems running m-a a-i ipw2100?
<12> Yeah, a lot of people reported that they needed to run apt a lot of times. I don't know where the bug is there
<12> It's a complicated upgrade though.
<13> stew: I always dist-upgrade on sid
<12> Lots of pre-depends and conflicts
<13> gravity: actually, it went flawlessly here. Not apt-get -f installs at all, just a single dist-upgrade
<12> Still if I could minimize that I'd like to
<1> asg: yeah me to, but i only do it on saturday mornings, and not every so mine is out of date
<13> s/Not/No/
<12> asg: Cool. That's good to hear
<13> stew: ah, okay. I do it daily because 'Danger' is my middle name
<15> ok i got a good one for you guys
<1> asg: yeah i don't becuase "lost wages" isn't mine :)
<15> i add user accounts adding useradd, i use p***wd to set their p***words, then i try to log in with them and i can't... why could this be ?
<13> stew: this is my laptop, I can always boot into FreeBSD if I bork things too bad :)
<1> lopuz: you don't want to install xfs, remove the :7100 font path, you may need to change your font paths from /usr/lib/X11/fonts to /etc/X11/fonts, ls /etc/X11/Fonts for a list of directories to put in the FontPaths
<4> ok thanks
<15> noone knows :(
<1> gravity: nice work, btw, thanks
<13> gravity: seconded
<12> Thanks :-)
<13> XenReborn: well, are you logging in via console, ssh? What does /var/log/auth.log say?
<12> Daniel Stone did a ton of the early work, I just made sure things were in ok shape for Debian
<15> i'm logging in ON the local machine
<1> gravity: OMG Lolz` where is teh compix xgl how to i get true transparancy and more fps !!1
<6> If I want to reuse all user and group setup from an earlier system, what should I copy over? /etc/{p***wd,p***wd-,shadow*,group*}? Will all UID's and p***words then be the same as on the earlier system?
<12> stew: I want to get that working too, but I've got to finish this part first
<12> And update all the other stuff
<12> New evdev driver!
<13> john_doe: that depends on if the new system's uids map to the original ones.
<16> wenas
<17> hey guys
<15> asg: it says authentication failure but doesn't say why, it wouldn't even allow me to enter the p***word for teh account it just said "invalid login"
<17> anyone know where i can get debootstrap?
<6> asg, oh yes, I see
<17> a binary that will work on slackware
<1> gravity: yeah, if it wasn't clear, i'm kidding and don't care. i'm on a 6 year old graphics card
<6> so can I somehow update that?
<13> phycho: /msg dpkg debootstrap
<17> k
<6> asg, I mean can usermod maybe scan the new files and map from that information?
<6> asg, but if none of the users exist on the new system now?
<15> asg: no clue ? I don't get why and its a major problem...
<18> I have asked for a wireless NIC and got the answer that I should use one that contains prism chipset. However, I have googled, yahoo, Linksys home page but I can't find any information for a wireless card that use a prism chipset. any help is appreciated
<19> I'm trying to get 2.6 amd64 on my system using debootstrap but after downloading the basic packages it says "failure trying to run: chroot /mnt mount -t proc proc /proc" ... I can't find anytihng on google to suggest what the problem might be :/ The base OS is debian i386 testing
<13> XenReborn: did you modify /etc/security/access.conf?
<12> http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7466666104246770991&q=jetpack&pl=true
<13> john_doe: in that case, you just have to create the home directories for each user, cp /etc/skel/.* to each and chown each to the correct user.
<6> asg, you mean after copying over the 6 files, I mentioned?
<13> john_doe: yes. You will likely have to cook up a script to do it unless you want to do it by hand but it shouldn't be too hard.
<13> john_doe: depending on your security requirements, you might only want to merge user accounts only, not the root or system accounts.
<6> asg, that's great, I reuse the /home disk :-)
<6> asg, I see
<13> john_doe: yeah, then just copy and merge the bits that aren't root and system users.
<20> Where can I get a list of installed packages ? there is some not installed packages in /var/lib/dpkg/info/.
<13> any: dpkg -la | egrep ^[hi]i
<20> thank you.
<13> any: if you just want the names instead of the other cruft, just append "| awk '{print $2}'" to the above one-liner
<20> dpkg -la | awk '{print $2}' ?
<20> Why do I need the egrep ^[hi]i ?
<13> any: because you might have 'removed but not purged' packages, some in broken states, etc.
<20> oh, ok.
<13> any: also that remove the top for header lines of the output
<13> s/for/four/
<21> bah! broke xorg :(
<21> keeps saying "cannot find font fixed"
<1> gravity: should we create a page on wiki.d.o to document common 6.9->7 problems?
<13> stew: either there or the #debian wiki
<21> stew: is this one of them?
<1> asg: i can't create pages there
<13> stew: oh, just ask tarzeau to create an account for you. Or I will if you wish.
<1> tarzeau: ^^^
<1> AjiDahaka: ls /etc/X11/fonts ; you will probably need to change some FontPaths that are pointing to /usr/lib/X11/fonts to point to /etc/X11/fonts
<12> stew: Please!
<21> stew: ah, thanks :)
<1> gravity: ok i'm on it.
<12> stew: Rock, thank you.
<22> asg: what account?
<12> stew: I really want to make the XSF homepage on the wiki. I just haven't had time yet
<22> asg: you do it? debian faq wiki?
<1> gravity: huh, xorg isnt' listed in CurrentTransitions?
<12> stew: I guess not
<12> Feel free to add it
<23> hi all
<19> Is there an AMD64 kernel in testing? I cant find one in apt... I'm using i386 though... I want to install a amd64 kernel
<24> robhu_: no there isnt
<25> i can't log in my ftp remotely but localy yes, the router port 21 is open, could be iptable?
<19> cbr: Is there a way to install a amd64 kernel on here safely?
<24> i dont know
<26> hola -- I'm having trouble with my CPU (Pentium M) stepping down to 1/3 speed for power conservation (even though the laptop is on AC power) and then not going back up without a reboot -- kernel 2.6.15
<6> I forgot the name of the terminal program where I can manage which services that should run at different runlevels. The program I want gives an overview where I can select the wanted services/runlevels with the space button...
<27> rcconf?
<28> !runlevels
<0> read /usr/share/doc/sysvinit/*; read /etc/init.d/README; man update-rc.d, or if you don't understand that, consider installing 'rcconf' or 'file-rc' instead,
<9> please I have just one question, is it a good idea to do a apt-get upgrade now or is it better to wait that xorg7 bugs will be solve?
<28> wait wait wait
<21> it's "exciting" to do it now ;)
<9> jetscreamer, how can I know when bugs are solve?
<26> jetscreamer, I've not been keeping up -- is this a sid issue or testing too?
<6> dpkg, I think it's sysvinit :-) I know about update-rc.d
<26> john_doe, dpkg is a bot
<28> !what are you
<0> I am a blootbot. For more info see <blootbot>
<28> tkinias: sid afaik, no idea about testing
<9> <blootbot>
<28> !blootbot
<0> i guess blootbot is a severely mutiliated infobot (right now, the code doesn't even look like infobot any more), by xk. Homepage at http://blootbot.sourceforge.net. Archive is at http://www.nyip.net/~apt/blootbot. See blootbot debs now in debian, or if you didn't already know this you probably don't want to run a blootbot unless you're very good with perl
<29> heh
<6> tkinias, I'm lost
<6> tkinias, but it's ok, I'm used to that
<30> when i load hushmail, a java aplet is opened to merely type in the p***word
<30> is this to make it safe on foreign computers where a keylogger might be installed?
<19> Toltry: That wont protect you from a keylogger
