<0> Zrin, 3ware
<1> sepski: I'm looking at their website at the moment ... do they have PCI cards as well? Or just PCI-X?
<0> Zrin, keep in mind that new 9000 series require a recent kernel.
<2> Hi! I'm using the testing Debian. I'm have some problems to switch between Xorg and text mode terminal using <Ctrl><Alt><F-key>. Nothing happens when I try to switch.
<3> Hi all. i have a problem with in.ftpd on sarge: it seems it has a other layout for the dir output (missing TAB's)
<1> sepski: I'm using sarge with 2.6 kernel - would that do?
<4> GustavoC, try " sudo chvt 2" for now, is x well configured?
<2> Golito, yes. I don
<2> Golito, yes. I don't have the option DontVTSwitch in my xorg.conf
<0> Zrin, does it have the 3w-9xxx.ko module ?
<2> I guess it would be the cause of this, but it isn't there.
<1> sepski: I ***ume that module is not loaded by default
<4> GustavoC, huh, I don't get it
<0> Zrin, ofcourse not, but you should see it on the disk. use locate or find
<2> "sudo chvt 2" worked. Thanks! At least I can switch now.
<5> Zrin: modinfo 3w-9xxx



<6> aeg: in.ftpd?
<0> Zrin, if you buy a pci-x card you wont be able to use it in pci, but the pci 64 bit cards are backward compatible to regular pc style pci slots as long as it fits. since the 64 bit extention takes some spave
<0> Zrin, or you can use intel, just make sure you avoide promise controllers :)
<1> sepski: /lib/modules/2.6.8-2-386/kernel/drivers/scsi/3w-9xxx.ko
<2> In Xorg.conf we may put an Option "DontVTSwitch" to lock this switching.
<4> oh I see
<0> aye that's the one i'v only used the 8000 series tho.
<2> But my Xorg.conf isn't with this option. So I guess this option is disabled.
<7> anyon eknow any good tuts for setting up shorewall? really EASY tuts as i dont have a damn clue about anything to do with FW or IPS or anything like that lol
<5> GustavoC: unless it is enabled by default in xorg
<2> tralala, that's what I just thought.
<2> I'll try to put this option in my xorg.conf disabling it.
<8> what's the version of alsa in unstable ?
<9> tralala: It's not.
<10> dr1v3r: lokkit is like totally simple, if that helps
<6> gau_: /msg dpkg info alsa-base sid
<11> hi, i would like to know what command to use to list all users and groups
<2> Does anyone know in which session it must be?
<9> GustavoC: I'm using xorg and I don't have that problem. But I'm on testing. Did it just break and you're using unstable?
<12> GustavoC: man page does
<12> zorgy: getent
<2> tyranix, I'm using testing also.
<10> no you just need to place the option in xorg.co9nf
<7> jetscreamer i have looked at it for like 2 hours and it aint that simple to me
<2> jm_, thanks
<13> How does Linux know that 180 0 is the first USB printer?
<10> dr1v3r: lokkit is a package
<10> very simple fw thingy
<2> I've forgot manpages. Thanks!
<12> elfriede: it doesn't work that way
<7> yea its indtalled, but it needs configuring doesnt it?
<0> in what way would i detect speed duplex mismatch in debian ? would i get anything in the logs ?
<7> *installed
<14> hello
<13> jm_: I figured that one out, but I have yet to find a way to connect my USB port to a real device node.
<12> sepski: not necessarily
<10> dr1v3r: just type lokkit, hit enter, hit enter again, iirc
<15> how can i load cd images (different formats: iso , nrg , etc) ?
<10> andreiutz: mount
<10> andreiutz: nrg may take a convertor
<13> jm_: what should I do to be able to use USB with my printcap?
<12> elfriede: well the first detected printer gets lp0, the second lp1 and so on, did you read parport.txt?
<10> not sure
<13> jm_: I'm doing this over USB.
<7> type lokkit in here or SSH?
<15> jetscreamer, 10x
<10> ok lokkit, enter, tab tab tab, enter
<0> i have a box connected to a switch. the box's nic if i type ip -s link or ifconfig show 0 errors/dropps/overruns, but the switch claim mismatch and errors often.
<14> is it safe to disable dbus daemon from boot? Is it being used for something?
<12> elfriede: it has some generic info
<10> dbus lets programs 'talk' to one another iirc, if that helps you any
<7> jetscreamer i dont have a clue what your talking about
<7> where do i type lokkit ?
<10> dr1v3r: as root, type lokkit, hit enter, hit tab 3 times, hit enter.
<12> elfriede: i.e. load lp module
<0> and i see nothing in the logs either
<7> lokkit: command not found
<13> jm_: yes, I've read parport.txt, seems it is needed to autoprobe.
<0> !installit
<16> *** NEWS FLASH! *** Your box does not come with every app, tool and utility known to debiankind installed already. If you find that the program you've been told to use isn't there, install it. Also ask me about <search>. if someone suggests an application to you, it's highly likely that it's available via apt-get
<10> apt-get install lokkit understand that this is just a very easy fwbuilder that will let you have one while you learn to make your own, or learn how to use shorewall



<13> jm_: how do I connect the USB port to the parport interface?
<5> elfriede: do you want to use a usb printer?
<13> elfriede: ah, through the lp module.
<13> tralala: exacty-
<12> elfriede: don't bother with that, just check if lp is loaded, although I am not entirely sure this is needed, as USB printer module is called usblp
<13> tralala: exactly.
<7> jetscreamer its a console interface, i only have SSH access
<10> that should work shouldn't it
<7> ohh i got it
<7> thank you
<10> but!
<10> hey
<10> wiat
<7> yea?
<10> don't disable ssh in that case
<10> :)
<13> jm_: usblp is the thing I needed
<7> i wont :D
<10> there is a box to enable it
<5> elfriede: I've configured mine with foomatic-gui. It was a bit tricky but it worked.
<10> under customize
<13> tralala: yes, the usblp was the last piece of the driver puzzle. the print queue has been cleared and the printer is "ready". the only mystery left now is why nothing happens.
<17> can anyone give me the hsync and vsync rates for a imac g3 std
<7> if my IPs are static will i still need DHCP?
<10> no
<12> elfriede: doh, I though you loaded that :)
<13> tralala: printing with cups, lprng (or whatever) is the most overly complicated BS I've ever seen. :)
<5> It is a bit tricky as I said. I've also got cups install before it could print although I'm not really sure if it was needed.
<13> jm_: no, I thought that I could just use the USB ports as _any_ character device.
<13> by somehow making it into a dev node
<10> unless you use your static ip's in dhcp (let dhcp ***ign your static ip's that is)
<12> elfriede: sure you can, as long as kernel support for it is there
<13> jm_: yes, that minor detail.
<13> however, my printer does not even ack receiving data.
<5> elfriede: did you try the foomatic stuff?
<18> elfriede: grep -i hint /var/log/cups/error_log
<3> Guerin: Yes from the std ftpd package
<13> tralala: no, I just want to print some text to it.
<13> valdyn: I'm not using cups
<19> How can I generate a file full of completely random crap that's about 600 megs large? (no, I don't have a windows xp cd)
<13> Malagmyr: perhaps a dd from /dev/urandom?
<20> Malagmyr, Did you look in /dev/random?
<19> random is nice, but how can I limit the size of the file I create?
<21> hi
<12> with dd
<3> Guerin: sorry i was spitting in the bug list to check
<19> thanks, guys
<10> Malagmyr: dd
<20> Malagmyr, Cheers. Just hope you have enough entropy to generate a large enough file.
<12> well he can always bang on the keyboard like mad ;)
<20> hehe
<20> he may have to!
<20> Older kernels (2.4) run out of entropy
<22> How can i know the size of a postscript? (A4, US letter, ...)
<20> Knight_Lord, Postscript is a markup languge
<22> gnube meaning?
<20> A postscript file has a size which is viewable with ls
<22> gnube i don't mean file size
<20> Knight_Lord, If you want to print the postscript file to a printer, you tell you r printer which paper size you want
<22> gnube and you mean less or more?
<20> The type of file should have no relevance to the size of the paper
<22> gnube lpr doesn't have any option for paper size
<20> Knight_Lord, Does your printer print on A4?
<22> gnube yes of course
<20> Knight_Lord, Where are you located?
<22> gnube sweden, it's a Xerox Phaser8400
<20> in the Geo-physical sense
<20> Tjena!
<22> tjena :-)
<20> then use A4
<22> Yes i know, but the problem is that the printer seems not to get the A4
<18> Knight_Lord: cat /etc/papersize
