Comments:
<0> _unstable: probably a hermes
<1> javiolo: easy to learn
<2> asg: yea, hermes chipset from agere
<2> asg: agere didn't make drivers for the 2.6 kernel, only the 2.4
<1> javiolo: no animation capibilities though
<0> _unstable: that's supported
<3> Tortel is modelling like maya ? nurbs, poligons... ?
<2> asg: It's the hermes II chipset
<1> javiolo: pollies
<0> _unstable: the standard 2.4.x and 2.6.x kernels both worked for me.
<4> pixar have a custom version of maya thats runs on linux i beleive but its not available to the populous i dont beleive
<3> ethics yes no populous
<2> asg: I went to agere's website and they only had drivers for 2.4...they said they don't support 2.6
<2> asg: You probably had hermes I chipset
<3> Just read about someone succesfully run maya on debian
<2> asg: How can I get more info from this card..what command?
<0> _unstable: oh, possibly. I can't remember offhand; I don't have that card anymore
<5> abrotman: the wikipedia article also touches on NUMA and ASMP where as that factiod does not :P
<3> he converted rpm to deb
<6> nvz: they don't apply to his question
<5> abrotman: he may be an over achiever
<0> _unstable: pccardctl
<3> is that possible ?
<6> nvz: wanna place bets?
<5> abrotman: heh, I always like to learn more than I ask :P
<7> hello to everyone
<6> nvz: sure :)
<2> asg: http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/O2ZZzQ97.html
<4> javiolo: umm alien is the package designed to do rpm to deb but its hit and miss i think
<2> asg: http://www.agere.com/mobility/wireless_lan_drivers.html
<1> checking the maximum length of command line arguments... 32768
<1> w00t
<5> RPM is inferior and doesnt contain nearly enough information to make a deb
<2> asg: If you download either linux tarball, both the readmes state they only support 2.4 kernel.
<3> ethics sorry english its not my mother language, what did you mean ?
<7> has anybody made a debian install from another linux system?
<5> obviously alien has to do some "guesswork"
<0> _unstable: well, it wouldn't hurt to try either standard kernel. Otherwise, 2.4.x will have to do.
<4> "alien" = rpm -> deb converter.......sorta works sometimes
<1> alien is awesome
<8> /msg NickServ IDENTIFY adam
<9> how can i make a .deb kernel package on my own?
<5> ethics: /msg dpkg debtakeover
<0> bintut: /msg dpkg kp
<7> has anybody made a debian install from another linux system?
<4> according to tortel itsd "Awesome"!!!
<5> eyedol59: stop repeating
<1> :D
<1> i r0xx0rs
<9> asg: what's that?
<0> bintut: type it in your irc client, our bot will give you some information.
<5> eyedol59: if you arent getting the desired result you are either asking the wrong question, the wrong people or everyone is busy or ignoring you.. your options are to wait or change the question
<7> i am trying to install debian from another linux system, could anybody help me?
<5> eyedol59: /msg dpkg debtakeover
<10> about pkg c2man : Please do not use c2man -- it is unmaintained upstream now, and only exists because other packages depend on it. :)
<2> asg: What's the best card to buy these days..as far as having a pigtail..so I can use an antenna and get a better signal? something that will definitely be supported by linux
<4> eyedol59 - explain more...you have deb files on a system and want to use them rather than downloading new ones?
<1> ethics: he means run the installer, I think.......
<11> :-) debtakeover is sweet!!
<2> asg: I got this card..because everyone said orinoco was one of the first companies to make open source drivers...and it would definitely be supported under linux...and I got it with the hermes II chipset...and not supported by 2.6.x
<6> !debootstrap
<12> i heard debootstrap is <caphuso> get the debootstrap source from http://packages.debian.org/, compile it, read the man page, install debian with it </caphuso> Useful for installing in a chroot. http://people.debian.org/~walters/chroot.html
<7> nvz:actually i am in the middle of the installation process but i am having some troubles, could yo help me?
<13> whats the other package handler thingy besides dselect? maybe i can figure out how to handle these broken packages..
<14> Can someone help me? I did a apt-get dist-upgrade everything seems okay except for one package knetworkconf failed I now I can not get apt to get past it
<6> aptitude? dselect? tasksel? synaptic?
<5> eyedol59: probably not I am contemplating sleep.. you should probably quit beating around the issue and just ask the questions you want answered
<7> i am following the guide that comes with the debian iso...
<15> obviously not dselect, it's still broken....
<16> Does anyone happen to know if there are any xgl packages out yet? Possibly on etch?
<13> hrm..i'll try synaptic..
<1> !info xgl
<1> nope
<15> !find xgl
<12> python-wxglade: (GUI designer written in Python with wxPython), section python, is optional. Version: 0.3.5.cvs20050824-0.2 (sid), Packaged size: 484 kB, Installed size: 2388 kB
<4> computer says....NO!!
<16> Yeah I didn't think so. Has anyone successfully installed it on debian yet?
<5> what the hell is _IT_
<6> it's IT!
<6> so says Mike Patton
<1> Information Tech!
<1> :D
<4> IT = information Technology...its like IS but way easier to spell
<5> yo momma is IT or at least she was in her day
<15> !it
<12> per aiuto in lingua italiana: /j #debian-it , (anche /j #linux-it ). Otterrete sicuramente piu' aiuto li', bischeri! For help in italian /j #debian-it or /j #linux-it
<15> oops
<6> hehe
<15> !not it
<17> !
<1> !!
<12> No sc el teu puto indicador de csh
<7> when i try to mount the fstab the command line gives me this message: special device /dev/sda10 does not exist
<4> eyedol59: do you have 10 partitions on that drive?
<5> let me help you with that, you dont mount the fstab
<7> but this device is just a partition of my SATA disk and it exists
<7> yes i do
<15> him say 'i'm not your damn csh prompt' iirc
<5> the fstab is a file its not to be mounted
<4> nvz umm mount device name looks up fstab and does that
<7> the guide says that i have to write: mount -a in the command line
<15> !castignate nvz's reading between the line skills
<15> mount -a should mount all that's in fstab yes
<7> i look in the man and it says that man -a mounts everything that is on the fstab file
<18> wow I finally managed to set denyhosts.. amazingly simple that was!
<5> I'm lucky I can read at all where I come from :P
<5> heh
<4> eyedol59: sounds like it doesnt see the partitions the same way you think it does
<15> yes eyedol59 that's how it works
<15> !beer nvz
<15> you decant wine not beer
<15> omg
<5> actually I am gonna try this St Ides Special Brew
<4> eyedol59: perhaps dmesg can tell you more or fdisk /dev/sda
<7> ethics: my ubuntu sees it, so it does exist . Do you know how can a make debian see the partition?
<5> I thought about some Camo 40's but I figured I'd rather not die tonight
<5> I never heard of Camo Ice before but its a 9% Malt 40.. thats pretty strong
<4> eyedol59: does the mount point exist?
<6> by yinzer standards
<7> ethics: yes it does
<19> how do i generate a p***word file for vncviewer?
<5> I've never seen a Malt beverage that high St Ides is only 6%, smirnoff is 5% and regular beers are usually less than that
<4> try manually mounting.... mount -t FSType /dev/sdaXX /mount/Point
<20> is there a flag for apt-get to show what files are being installed/extracted?
<21> nvz: bah. good beers start at around 6%...
<20> instead of just names of packages
<18> is there any problem if I used wget instead of apt-get to install denyhosts?
<15> try fdisk -l /dev/sda maybe, or cat /proc/partitions
<5> dondelelcaro: well that Camo Ice at 9% is one of the highest I've seen
<6> define good beer
<7> ethics: ok, i would try that now..
<1> i want beer
<1> :(
<6> Tortel: you're 15
<1> so?
<5> heh
<4> !beer tortel
<1> why you remeber that anyway?
<6> Tortel: i remember weird things . no idea ..
<4> yep hes a weirdo!!!
<5> if I give away any more I wont be old enough :P
<1> damnyou
<6> i've got 8 or so i can share :)
<18> ethics want to see sco with pants around the ankles?
