<0> yawg: no (not normally, but some programs may have read that and have it cached, usually this is done via resolve thouhg)
<1> definitely not X, I am sure of that now. Where to, then?
<0> msoos: to whatever package you installed, probably /usr/bin/Xorg, next time don't change stuff
<2> msoos: /etc/X11/X -> /usr/bin/X11/Xorg here (sarge + backport)
<3> hey, how can I debug a wireless minipci card that doesn't want to talk to the router? I have a pcmcia card with the same chipset that works fine.
<4> Okay, Im quite confused as to how I use Samba..
<5> yawg: hosts takes effect immediately.
<6> hm.. still having trouble
<6> i don't know what to put for the server.domain part
<6> i think that is where the problem is
<7> is there Kde 3.5.X for debian ?
<5> yawg: /msg dpkg paster. What are you trying to do? Post current entry
<5> !tell mha13 about search
<4> !samba
<8> samba is probably a Unix implementation of Windows file and print sharing (the SMB protocol), a good tutorial in English can be found at http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/using_samba/toc.html , or http://www.samba.org , or #samba, or read O'Reilly's book online (http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba2/book/toc.html)
<5> yawg: Likely nothing for most cases.



<9> Is there a way I can use anjuta to execute a script such that I may find which part of strace output corresponds with which part of the script?
<10> I want to change the MAC adress on my interface. "ifconfig eth2 hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55" says "invalid argument" - what am I doing wrong?
<5> sandman: Generally, no. 'strace bash -x <script> 2>&1 ' may help though.
<5> sandman: In general, what you're interested in is finding out what files are being opened and/or read.
<1> ****. I got it. There was an apt error when I upgraded. I did not think much about it, I did apt-get -f install, and it did it. BUT! The xserver-xorg-core package did not install. So I had no Xorg binary AT ALL. I now have one. Cool.. let's see :D
<1> I did install, but without installing the damn Xorg binary
<0> Set: that is the correct syntax, are you root?
<10> yes
<2> msoos: more original than brilliant ;)
<6> the thing i'm having trouble understanding is, i don't get why it needs to know my domain name for the local network, i don't think my local network is even aware of my domain name
<0> Set: maybe the driver doesn't support it. Try a different address but I don't think that will help
<10> it was the driver, worked with another device
<1> X works. Thank you for all of you guys, especially cureless
<10> when I change the MAC adress... and it says that it was successful... why doesn't ifconfig tell me that the MAC is changed?
<1> and bartm
<11> if i make something SUID then will it execute with the owners permissions? i have a script that needs to run as root... and i would like to execute it by any user
<11> just mounts some things
<1> It took me 1.5 hours to solve this. And I thought I am a Linux-guru :D
<1> I should be using Windows as a punishment
<4> Does Samba only connect to a Windows Domain?
<1> Yay. From XChat now :D
<1> Thx again guys
<0> msoos: next time you'll know you're not a guru.
<11> where can i put some comands to execute on bootup? in an init script in particular or should i make one?
<5> sandman: man crontab '@boot'
<5> sandman: ... or create a SysV init script. less /usr/share/doc/sysvinit/README*
<1> You know that is funny? I have a B.Sc in IT, I am doing test automation with a firm, and I have to use vmware images with only bash(sometimes only sh) on them with these strange OS-es like FreeBBSD and OpenBSD, and I have to install&configure it to use sendmail and qmail and I can do it. Only from command promt, naturally.
<5> !tell sandman about sysvinit
<12> msoos: yet you're still clueless
<1> I am, it seems :D
<12> good to know universities are keeping the standard of education up these days
<1> I think my mind got screwed up, looking at temrinals at work&at home
<5> How to tap a keg, and avoid the brown acid.
<1> I actually just got a PhD from france (I have been offered two more, too, but I truned them down). I am from Hungary, BTW
<12> oh PhD from France doesn't inspire much confidence
<12> ok*
<1> I know :D
<13> why not?
<1> But INRIA is a good research place
<12> thingfish: France
<14> check this out. it's hot. http://www.flickr.com/photos/theofpa/167011569/in/photostream/
<1> South of France is really good
<15> Well, sorry, france has great people when it comes to computing
<15> ... and science in general
<13> Shadowcat: so what? There's nothing wrong with France's academic standards. European academic standards are often higher than those in the U.S.
<1> But Paris, for instance, I heard is not so good at Tech stuff
<12> thingfish: I'm from Europe
<12> I still don't like the French
<13> hehe
<1> Shadowcat, where are you from?
<4> Hmm..
<13> well that's a different thing entirely then, isn't it, Shadowcat?
<13> ;)
<12> msoos: learn how to use whois :P
<4> I run "swat" (Samba config)



<1> whois Shadowcat
<4> But nothing happens
<4> No messages, no dialog boxes
<1> Sweden
<6> would it be wise for me to install BIND instead of trying to fiddle with /etc/hosts ?
<13> hah I remain unbruised.
<14> That' picture is from Greece. :)
<13> ooo Greece, cool.
<1> All right, I have go get up at 7:20, and it's already 0:29 here
<13> six hours is about all I can sleep anyway.
<1> THX for destroying my fantasy that I am a Linux guru. It really helped :D
<14> geek paradise.
<1> Bye!
<13> oh you got me there, Shadowcat - ick.
<12> Madonna's songs are produced in this country anyway
<13> England?
<13> oh you
<13> ok if I must...
<13> ah, sweden
<13> I had a roomie from sweden in college
<14> sweden? ppfft.
<14> I lived there for 5 years.
<16> can anyone tell me what is the best build of linux to run a webserver to provide PHP/PERL,SendMail,SQL,Webmin, I would like to be able to offer webmin to each user etc.
<12> if you're asking that you should be looking for an admin
<12> not trying to do it yourself
<16> is there an admin in the house
<17> hi everybody
<18> BIAF: you don't want to use webmin; besides that, Debian is probably the best to run.
<12> dondelelcaro: which can be debated as "best" is subjective
<12> my point is that if you're asking it you'd probably get less trouble just hiring someone to do it
<18> Shadowcat: hence the qualifier
<12> you can do all that on <insert linux distro here>, it all depends on the person implementing it
<16> thanks m8, im using ubuntu, but i just was looking somethign that if ever again my sql etc all go down, i can install some from of LAMP etc to get up fast again, i found ubuntu a bit of a nightmare trying to get up after a crash.
<12> uhh
<12> ubuntu is simple to fix
<16> i will try Debian
<12> ... if you know what you are doing
<12> if you don't you'll be pulling out hair with any distro
<12> fixing ubuntu is pretty much the same as fixing debian
<18> 'cept that's #ubuntu's problem, not ours.
<16> what needs fixed?
<12> true
<12> just saying, if you know dpkg/apt well enough you can pretty much fix any debian based distro provided you know a few package names
<4> "Cont not connect to server"
<4> "The account was Disabled"
<16> whats broke man?
<19> Kernel question, I've grabbed kernel_package with aptitude. Now I'd like to run make menuconfig to see whats in this version, but I don't know where aptitude installed my kernel sources. /usr/src/linux is empty.. o what am I to do?
<20> did you check /usr/src ?
<20> there should be a tarball in there
<19> yeah its empty
<20> you also need to grab the appropriate linux-source package
<19> ok, let me check on that...
<20> kernel_package is the debian kernel building stuff, basically make-kpkg
<4> Dunno, I can see both machiens on the network, but I cant connect
<6> this /etc/hosts thing has officially stumped me
<6> it seems like no matter what i add, i still can't access my computer with \\hostname
<19> there is no "linux-source" in aptitude, at least the / find doesn't find it.
<19> does it go under a different name?
<19> the kernel that is
<6> kernel-image-2.x
<6> j-bit:
<19> yawg: thanks
<12> sigh
<21> yawg : you are trying to access samba on another machine using \\hostname instead of \\127.0.0.1 or whatever IP?
<6> GeorgeS069: exactly
<12> I seriously doubt j-bit should even be compiling a kernel if he can't even get the source
<12> I mean hell, www.kernel.org (duh)
<6> Shadowcat: :p
<12> it's not rocket science
