<0> Eulex: cool!
<1> cy_, i'm guessing grey is not in the rgb file (/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt)
<2> britt, actually, most wired cards are supported. it's a bit worse with wireless ones, though.
<0> Eulex: thats what i meant, wireless ones.
<3> if I'm making .deb kernel out of kernel source does it make somekind of logfile out of it?
<0> Eulex: i want to build my father a linux-based music player thing...didnt know which card to use....
<4> I'm trying to run an application or invoke it with xscreensaver. Is basically that I want to run a video when the xscreensaver runs.
<3> guys can somebody help me track the problem?
<5> it might be it
<5> lemme check :)
<2> britt, hmm, ok. if in doubt, google :)
<0> Eulex: yep. Google is good.
<6> what is "Could not early remove e2fsprogs" ?
<7> when is xorg 7.0 release coming to debian?
<8> DevilChaos: WIR
<7> doh
<2> britt|away, usually, you will need to find out what chipset it has, and then check how support is for that chipset.
<9> and when is ready? :)
<2> _diego_, siyh
<7> i know what WIR is lol
<9> siyh?
<2> !siyh
<10> i heard siyh is Sooner If You Help, or see "wir" and "rsn"
<7> im really annoyed cant get xgl until 7.0 xorg
<11> DevilChaos: help package it ..
<7> i wouldnt know where to start dont even know how to read source code
<12> DevilChaos: learn!
<7> ive googled it
<2> !nm
<10> i guess nm is New Maintainer, the process through which new Debian developers happen. And also nevermind, or a program to list symbols from object files and libs. Never\No Mind. New Mexico No Molestes (do not disturb) in spanish. at http://nm.debian.org/
<7> too
<2> !mg
<10> A simple packaging walkthrough can be found by (as root) "apt-get install maint-guide" and then (as user) lynx /usr/share/doc/maint-guide/maint-guide.en.html/index.html" (or maint-guide.en.html in sarge/sid). 'Mg' is also the chemical symbol for magnesium, or the shorthand for Madagascar
<12> !nm =~ s/And also nevermind, or a/A/
<10> OK, SerajewelKS
<13> i've got a laptop with xp service pack2 and forgot the admin p***wd. i want to reset the xp p***word to install sarge on it and dual boot. i am a newbie running knoopix4 live cd and have no floppy drive nor cdwriter
<12> knop4nu: (1) this is #debian, not ##windows. (2) this is #debian, not #knoppix.
<13> sarge is linux
<3> hey, guys when I try to make deb out of kernel source I get error how do I track it and remove it with menuconfig?
<12> knop4nu: you're using a knoppix livecd. that is not sarge.
<13> but i want to install sarge\
<14> what was this? o.o
<13> sarge is debian
<14> biiiiig lag or netsplit?
<15> knop4nu: what do you need from us?
<12> knop4nu: so why do you need to reset the p***word
<2> !d-i knop4nu
<10> knop4nu, you want to go to http://www.debian.org/releases/sarge/debian-installer/ - for your own good, and everyone else's.
<12> knop4nu: the debian installer couldn't care less about your windows administrator p***word
<16> has anyone had problems with netinst 31r1a CD?
<8> saahbs: most likely
<12> saahbs: are you having a problem, or are you taking a poll?
<17> knop4nu: you need to be booted into an alternative OS to reset the XP p***word. knoppix should suffice, though you still need to know how to access the info. there is a linux rescue CD out there for download that comes with the functionality built in
<16> I've tried two burns and both complain that they cannot find installation components.
<16> SerajewelKS: problem
<12> saahbs: don't start with a poll then... "has anyone ..." "does anyone use ..." are no-op questions and don't help us help you.
<0> Nwallins: or the XP boot CD. or is it 2000, theres one that allows one access to reset the p***word without having to know it
<16> the installer starts but cannot find installation components while doing the base system install from cd step
<16> SerajewelKS: ok
<13> Nwallins: i do not have a cdwriter so knoppix is the only thing i can use
<18> knop4nu: http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntp***wd/
<12> knop4nu: repeat after me: "i don't need to reset the windows p***word to install debian"
<0> knop4nu: how did you create the knoppix cd
<0> SerajewelKS: he wants to dual boot
<19> knop4nu: The place to ask your question is either #windows or #knoppix. You're likely to get an answer from somebody with the knowledge you seek in one of those channels.
<12> britt: so?
<0> SerajewelKS: well youve got a point
<0> *foot in mouth #2*
<0> lol
<19> knop4nu: People in this channel are less likely to know how to reset a win p***word than the folks in #windows.
<12> britt: =)
<12> jjazz: on the contrary, we're more likely but it's still blatantly off-topic =)
<0> i wonder if bill gates hangs out in #windows
<12> britt: on freenode? unlikely.
<16> I observed a problem with netinst 31r1a CD. The installer starts, I can partition, detects the install cd, but while doing a base install it complains that it cannot find installation components. Also it doesn't have an option for poiting it to a network repository.
<13> i did ask on those channels and got no reply. most linux users are former windows users . some power users
<12> saahbs: odd.. it's always worked for me
<20> jjazz i think you mean the guys in this chan are less likely to help or be sympathetic to a windows user :P
<12> !they don't know
<10> Just because the people in some OTHER channel don't know the answer to your non-Debian question, it does NOT give you the right to h***le US with your problems. Go try Google.
<12> knop4nu: ^^^
<0> knop4nu: im a former windows user. now im a Mac user and a linux user
<16> 31r1 CD1 works fine on the machine though...I'm suspecting wierd hw problem with CDrom, but the box can run knoppix all day....
<2> saahbs, checked the tty where all that info about how things are being set up is displayed?
<16> Eulex: yes, no error messages there
<2> knop4nu, well yes, I was a windows user. but seriously, do you want or need info applying to win98? :P
<16> SerajewelKS: is netinst supposed to connect to network while installing from the CD? or only after reboot?
<0> is there any way to boot into a debian prompt from the netinstall CD?
<0> like a "repair" boot option from LILO or what?
<12> saahbs: after the first reboot
<16> SerajewelKS: good. hm.
<12> britt: boot the netinstall CD, type 'rescue' at the boot prompt.. i think
<0> damn
<0> i typed repair
<0> sigh
<14> xD
<12> britt: use the F keys, luke
<14> loool
<17> RTFM, UTSL, and now UTFKL
<0> next time i screw up my filsystem and endanger 8000+ music files, i'll use the force
<21> just put a cat on the drive. always helps
<16> SerajewelKS: Eulex: thanks. I guess my prob could have been hw based.....
<0> Malagmyr: the animal?
<21> yep
<2> saahbs, yw :)
<6> should one run dist-upgrade as a cronjob on a production box?
<16> \quit
<16> hehe
<0> Nwallins: no example syntax entries in the man page for xargs
<12> kombi: hell no
<0> :\
<0> google.
<12> kombi: *maybe* if you're only getting security updates
<12> kombi: but even then, it might pull in a new kernel, and new kernels can require reboots
<6> SerajewelKS: that's what I felt, I heard poeple say that somewhere..
<6> true!
<20> how do you get security patches in debian?
<3> can somebody help me to compile kernel?
<8> MrNaz: you make sure you have security sources and update regularly.
<12> Hoxzer: do you need to compile a kernel?
<20> chealer is there a url for noobs like me?
<8> MrNaz: security.d.o?
<22> hi MrNaz
<6> Hoxzer: there is hardly ever a reason to do that, unless > 1 CPU or > 1Gig of RAM
<3> SerajewelKS: well I could reinstall
<20> hi TinoW :) fancy seeing you here
<0> kombi: still there's smp kernels
<23> and I saw her face
<3> I'm using debian based linux not debian
<23> I'm a believer
<3> so I guess debs are not working
<3> kernel.debs I mean
<0> Hhhhhh: lol
<22> MrNaz: yeah, thats funny :-)
<12> Hoxzer: wtf are you talking about. i can't make heads or tails of your explanation.
<12> Hoxzer: you *do not* need to compile kernels for debian
<23> yea, Debian is magic
<24> anyone know why i might be getting a pciReadWord: Alignment error: on starting X? happened since reboot for some reason.. the weird thing is my video card is AGP and not PCI as well (i tried asking in #xorg, no help. figured someone here might know or have run into this)
<3> SerajewlKS: I'm not using debian, I'm using knoppmyth which is based on debian
<24> i also did a purge removal on xserver-xorg and reinstalled it, no help :(
<3> can I anyway use debian kernels?
<12> Hoxzer: so why the **** are you asking in #debian
<25> hola
<26> !tell Hoxzer about knoppix
<3> Serajewel: becuase it is debian based
<23> SerajewelKS, that was pretty gay
<25> como
<23> SerajewelKS, why flame him? He was asking
<27> 'lo. Got a kernel-image install issue.
