<0> There seems to be no one over on #ALSA, would someone here care to address sound that seems to work well with /dev/dsp, xmms uses ALSA but midi files are silent when played back though ALSA ports ?
<1> konfuzed: have read it ;-)
<1> konfuzed: it's looks that there are verry many morons
<2> Harley^: midi generates triggers, no sound
<3> nope cant find it
<2> you need a component that takes midi triggers, and outputs sound
<4> damn still dont work
<4> i have to say it
<2> timidity++ is such an module
<4> the debian installer ****s
<2> mikeo1: which one?
<4> 3.1r1
<2> there's the old one which was from before '99
<5> where can i find a good MIPS repository?
<4> it finally installed
<2> and then there is debian-installer
<4> but the video is all messed up
<1> ClayG: ok, i boot i, a minute or ten, it's in a virtual computer, and there are al 2 running now
<3> wait
<2> mikeo1: you using a 2.6 kernel?
<3> a buddy just told me
<1> ClayG: Whis version
<4> i was in here a while ago trying to get it going
<4> yes
<3> im looking for it to make sure
<2> yeah
<0> shadows timidity -Os mymidi.mid works fine but pmidi -p "64:0" mymidi.mid is silent. Any idea why ?
<4> had to use it to get it to install
<4> got it to boot up
<1> ClayG: ok
<2> mikeo1: you messed up the video by switching to a VT, right?
<3> <Hentai^XPwork> under system32 in the windows folder
<3> I'm looking now to see if it's there
<4> ?
<2> oh
<6> mikeo1: the video configuration has little to do with the installer; use dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86; to set up your X server properly.
<2> nevermind that then
<4> i used the vesa drivers
<2> known bug
<3> <Hentai^XPwork> /drivers/etc/hosts
<7> "/usr/bin/mkinitrd: device /dev/md1 is not a block device"
<1> ClayG: see you the hidden files ?
<4> and there are 2 windows
<4> on my monitor
<4> or rather 2 screens
<1> ClayG: Activate the option
<4> side by side
<4> both REALLY low resolution
<4> like i cant read any text in a webbrowser
<4> its that bad
<8> the status message in tftp says connected - is that a lie ?
<0> shadows http://pastebin.ca/38875
<4> and wtf is up with gdm
<6> mikeo1: get one of them working with the proper driver (hint: it's not vesa) and then worry about getting multi-head working properly later.
<2> mikeo1: relax, you'll get it soon enough
<4> i have always hated gdm and they added it to debian by default
<4> lol
<4> will try that stuff up above
<4> anything esle
<6> mikeo1: second, if you want our help, stop complaining and overusing enter. We're here to help, not to be used as a punching bag.
<4> ok
<4> no problem
<1> !troll
<9> rumour has it, troll is http://www.catb.org/~esr/jargon/html/T/troll.html, or "one who is gaming the social dynamics of the list in order to warm his miniscule soul at the flames, not one who believes himself to be debating a point of significance (however ham-handedly)." (Michael K. Edwards)
<4> so trying to install the nvidia drivers
<4> should i try to go straight to nvidia
<4> or do that other thing
<4> and go to like nv or something
<4> then go to nvidia
<1> mikeo1: use the vga, it's work will all cards
<6> mikeo1: start with nv, and get that working first.
<4> i have a 6800gt
<10> anyone did true transparency in debian testing?
<4> if that affects the decision
<4> so will try nv
<6> mikeo1: seriously, please stop overusing enter. Use a period, a comma, or something else.
<4> ok, sorry
<1> bey
<1> salute en on de kost hein
<8> hmmm. I think the problem with tftp not working is that the tftpserver has two NICs. How ****y.
<3> nice and it does work
<3> er, i mean and it is there
<11> hello i have a question about running X clients in a chrooted sid, inside my main sarge install running the X server
<12> does anyone know why my installation gets stuck at "Loading module 'ide-disks' for 'Linux ATA DISK'..." ?
<2> DaveLib: err... ask away
<1> dondelelcaro: What was happend with dpkg yesterday ?
<0> hrmm...
<11> ok thanks shadows btw i am doing this based on as\dvice i got here in #debian the other day from xoz
<6> dvm1981: it's got a few bugs that need to be fixed; sometimes it locks up
<8> Random1 : more detail needed.
<12> well...it gets stuck
<11> i am running sarge only for a month sort of a newbie to debian
<12> doesnt go past 84%
<1> dondelelcaro: aaaiii, more work now ;-)
<12> i tried reburning the CDs and still have the problem
<11> and i wanted to try a couple of extra packages from testing and sid
<8> Random1 : I mean, are you using scsi, ide, serial ata, compiled your own kernel, where are you booting from etc.
<1> Random1: you need to load an module or so not ?
<11> i tried to install those from synaptic and was getting library dependency problems: versioning
<12> SATA and i was trying to install from the binary 1 CD (i also tried the net installed)
<1> ClayG: ?
<13> how would i write a shell function in such a way as to have it ask me to confirm its execution and continue if i confirm in the affirmative (and exit 1 otherwise)?
<12> i installed Ubuntu a week ago and had no problem
<11> people in #debian told me to be careful about changing library versions maybe mess up the base sarge
<8> SimonRaven : bash programming how to
<2> davi: what's wrong with stable?
<0> shadows, Did you read my post at http://pastebin.ca/38875 ? If so, do you have a suggestion on how I can get pmidi or aplaymidi to work properly ?
<1> SimonRaven: Look at #bash or so not ?
<14> how can i disable disable xscreensaver?
<13> aparna: what shell functions should i be looking at? while, read and such?
<15> bcc you could remove it :)
<2> Harley^: you may want to run timidity++ in daemon mode
<11> well my stable is fine, but there were two packages i wanted to try that arent yet in stable
<16> SimonRaven: 'read' is the main thing to know
<14> wireddd: yeah, i'm doing that now. any normal way of making gdm or xdm not call it?
<1> shadows: to who ask you ?
<16> SimonRaven: ***uming you can already write the rest of your function
<13> peterS: thanks, i'll start off on that
<1> shadows: sorry i see it now
<16> SimonRaven: you can use 'return' to exit a shell function early, in case someone says 'no don't continue'
<8> Random1 : stay with ubuntu is probably actually your best bet. If you really wanna go debian, you need to go through the install docs
<13> peterS: yeh, i can it's just the "ask me to run it before i run it" bit i'm stumped on
<0> shadows - What would you suggest for pmidi or aplaymidi ? Timidity already works with the -Os flag.
<6> bcc: generally if you don't load it in your .xsession, it won't start.
<12> hmmm, but i've installed it before
<12> and didnt have a problem
<13> peterS: aah ok
<11> so this chroot trick was how i am tying to get to use those 2 packages while keeping my stable install safe
<6> bcc: you can always kill it off or disable it too.
<13> thank you everyone
<1> ClayG: Found it ?
<14> dondelelcaro: how can i disable it?
<14> dondelelcaro: so that it's not loaded at all
<6> bcc: if you never want it to run, remove it.
<14> dondelelcaro: won't gdm show errors if i just remove the package?
<11> anyway i got the basics working X clients in the chrooted sid talking to the main stable X server
<2> Harley^: pmidi is not responsible for interaction with your PCM sound output
<14> dondelelcaro: it's screwing with my laptop'
<13> peterS: heh, you know me, i just need a kick in the right direction ;)
<14> s backligh
<14> t
<6> bcc: gdm better be testing for its existance first before starting it
<8> Random1 : mebbe the hard drive is failing. Lots of possibilities, hard to narrow down.
<14> dondelelcaro: ok, thanks
<6> bcc: and the last time I checked, the default Debian session didn't start it anyway
<14> dondelelcaro: it does
<11> oops must leave computer for a few minutes back soon and marking myself /away
