<0> I'd probably be mroe worried if I actually needed X
<0> is there a way to do a "recursive" remove?
<1> chaps, anyone used rpmstrap? http://hackers.progeny.com/~sam/rpmstrap/
<1> rm -R
<0> because a lot of things depend on X, and I probably don't want them
<2> DarkCow, welcome. Be aware that parts of X seem to be broken. You probably wont care too much I suppose.
<0> jayeola, I meant with apt
<1> -ahem-, i knew that (lies)
<0> it was only Xsession and Xsession.option that were conflicting
<0> heh
<3> maxb: ah, I see
<3> thanks!
<4> register
<5> apt-get dist-upgrade wants to remove x-window-system x-window-system-core? Is this tonight's topic?
<6> pab want to upgrade from sarge up ?
<5> Azar: I have sid 64
<6> wow, :)
<7> pab: You should be able to hang on to them. What's the conflict that will throw them out?
<5> jw2328: that's what I'm trying to figure...how do I go about it?
<8> where to get things like "unrar" for debian?
<9> neoxan: in non-free
<8> ok, thanks
<8> :)
<5> some the new packages it wants to install are x11proto stuff...what are they?
<10> hi
<11> pab: apt-cache show <package name>
<10> someone may give an information about amd 64 repositories?
<12> Could someone please tell me what comes between $debian_mirror and /powermac/images-1.44/rescue.bin ? I'm having trouble finding the rescue.bin file I'm seeking.
<13> exit
<10> I'm looking for an amd 64 mirror to put in my sources.list, but i have a i386 installation, may i use the two repositories?
<10> the amd 64 verision that i have downloaded didnt have kde and a lot of aplications
<7> try using aptitude instead of plain apt, it describes the conflict that is causing it to make that decision
<7> pab: ^
<11> kojiro: that's old. use the http://people.debian.org/~luther/d-i/images/2005-06-15/powerpc/floppy-2.4/ or something similar. not too recent, root.img or boot.img is too big
<14> hi, what version of gnome use sid?
<11> !info gnome
<5> simonrvn: duh...thank man. I guess I'll keep to just upgrade till I figure the conflict
<14> 2.12.3'?
<12> simonrvn: I'm afraid it won't work on this archaic pmac 8500...
<12> but I'll give it a go
<11> kojiro: yes it will. i just booted mine off that
<14> buah
<11> !info gnome-panel
<14> omg
<11> wtf is the bot?
<14> i dont have install debian
<11> dpkg: test
<15> No, simonrvn, you're not online any more.
<12> simonrvn: heh. oldest one is 8/18/05 :-)
<14> on package page i can see
<11> dpkg: wake up!
<15> simonrvn: I'm already awake! :)
<14> gnome 2.12.3
<14> with 2.14 packages
<5> jw2328: cool.....takin' a look now
<14> what is this
<11> SeFoKumA: there's bits of 2.14 in already
<14> ok
<14> too easy
<16> 2.14 in where?
<11> sid
<16> there looks like there are bits in testing too?
<11> *maybe*.
<17> ..I need my glx...
<18> amd athlon thunderbird, 1.1ghz
<18> What kernel should be installed for an etch system with that cpu?
<19> unstable: whatver-k7
<18> js_: smp or no?
<20> Hello, is there a utility that breaks text files into some preconfigured lengths?
<20> or even better, by weeks
<19> unstable: smp is for multiple cpus
<20> (want to break huge log into many files by calendar weeks )
<11> omi: unix philosophy: many small tools that do one task very well, combined, to make another task. split, date, join, awk, and a few others
<20> Excellent
<21> i cant start epiphany
<20> if everyone was doing that, youd be writing your own text parser and own script to play music
<20> thanks, but no thanks
<21> it was "Unable to determine the address of the message bus"
<18> js_: a *-486 kernel works...is that normal?
<22> wow
<11> omi: whatever. btw, what i did? you have a problem with that?
<23> hi all, i want to do a serial-console installation with my headless pc. can someone guide me ?
<11> what if i*
<20> no, I'm saying that ther'es better way to spend time and you weren't answering my question, rather making a sarcastic remark that everyone is not aware.
<11> omi: i wasn't sarcastic. you made an ***umption.
<11> *plonk*
<20> good for you
<21> anyone know what the message bus is?
<11> nimak: has to do with dbus. something about file change notification or something
<21> simonrvn, any idea what to do?
<11> nimak: have dbus get started in your x session. that fixed it for me
<11> i don't have a very good script to hand out, so i'd recommend a bit of web searching
<24> I'm trying to set up sound on my debian etch install
<24> I installed package alsa... but I am still not getting audio
<24> actually, this is a sarge install 2.6 kernel
<18> lzhang: type "apt-get install alsa-base alsa-utils; alsaconf" as root
<18> lzhang: Then reboot.
<24> all at newest version
<18> lzhang: And are you going through the alsaconf dialogue?
<24> hmm "Note, selecting alsa-utils instead of alsaconf"
<24> I didn't go through any config when I did apt-get installs
<25> lzhang: run alsaconf and make sure you are in the audio group
<24> can I do it as root
<25> yes, as root
<26> Hi guys, I need some help on repartitioning a fresh setup sarge box of a friend of mine.... somebody in for a challenge...
<24> do I want to modify modprobe.conf? is this for loading the drivers on boot
<5> pab laughs at self for being so pathetic...but rejoices that this community has bolstered resolve to continue....goodnight all
<26> ok... not everybody at ones :D
<27> baastie: boot of the installer media, and partition it...
<26> thanx for the advice... but the only thing i've got is an ssh session...
<27> baastie: a remote machine?
<26> yep
<28> Kopete is committing a patch that used to be only in Debian. Should I post against the old, closed Debian bug, open a new one, or just e-mail someone?
<26> the guy didn't create a swap file
<27> baastie: and what sort of repartitioning were you planning on doing?
<26> he created a boot, usr and var and no swap
<27> baastie: you don't really need one; you could use a swapfile instead of a swap partition if you wante.d
<26> and this on a soft mirror
<26> ah that sounds easier.. :D
<2> baastie, do you have unused space on the hard drive?
<24> strider: Thanks, that did the trick I have audio now. Now another question, if I have an application using OSS, will it work with ALSA?
<26> no unused space...
<26> i was thinking about going the difficult way...
<26> like copying usr to var
<26> delete usr
<27> baastie: too much trouble
<26> repartition usr space for a swap and usr...
<2> lzhang, if you have oss compatibility modules
<27> baastie: unless the guy has no memory, he probably won't even notice that he has no swap.
<24> would that be package alsa-oss?
<26> the box has 256mb and he wants to start using it as an rsync box...
<25> lzhang: yes, libalsa-oss i think
<2> lzhang, lsmod | grep _oss
<26> the easy way would be to create a swap file then...
<29> Hey all.. running 2.6.16-1 and am trying to build the hostap modules using module-***istant and it consistently fails
<24> snd_pcm_oss is in there
<24> as well as others related to my onboard sound
<24> via
<2> lzhang, should work then
<24> k thanks tim_flaus
<29> I was able to build the madwifi modules without problem.
<24> woops tim_flatus I mean
<26> owkee something like this then... dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1024 count=65536
<29> any ideas?
<2> lzhang, np :)
<29> Anyone here have hostap running with 2.6.16?
<30> hi all
<30> anyone in here have experience with chroot_safe?
