Comments:

<0> wmhtet: no idea.
<1> ok, let me try that, jm_ (but I need to do google on how to enable dmix first thought :D )
<2> Is there anything special you have to do in order to save files to a FAT32 partition while in Linux?
<1> thx anyway liable
<3> wmhtet: /msg dpkg dmix
<1> jm_ thx
<3> powergoal: as user or root?
<0> good luck with dmix :)
<2> either
<1> I am googling but it help a lot
<1> :D
<3> it works fine for root
<2> and as user?
<1> i mean dpkg sugest
<0> !vfatrw



<4> To get write access to a vfat partition when mounting it with fstab, use the line "/dev/partition /mount/point vfat defaults,uid=USERID,gid=GROUPID,umask=002 0 0" in /etc/fstab. umask=002 will make the partition rwxrwxr-x, while umask=022 will make it rwxr-xr-x. Get your user/group ids with the command "id". This also applies to NTFS, if you replace "vfat" with "ntfs" (although you can't currently easily _write_ to NTFS with Linux)..
<3> you have to change mount options (umask/dmask/fmask or uid/gid)
<2> thankyou dpkg
<4> no worries, powergoal
<0> powergoal: home is all set?
<5> can i use wine with let say notepad to open a file like so wine "C:\Program File\Notepad\notepad.exe" -e file
<2> im putting it in now :)
<5> i am just trying to figure out the cli syntax if i can use it like that with wine or something similar?
<6> pjv: wine has a native notepad
<0> pjv: i cant help it, but why?
<5> liable: i want to make it a generic command to open files for Fireworks or Dreamweaver
<0> pjv: oh.
<7> question: doesn't debian linux use something better than realplayer?
<5> yeah so if i click on a file for fireworks my desktop know i use dreamweaver to open such files with wine
<8> Azar: any movie player in debian you like
<5> but i must have the right syntax to do so
<9> http://www.d2dc.net/~deek/nice_breasts.jpg
<8> Azar: just need the non-dfsg w32codecs package from marillat
<9> Azar: debian doesn't have realplayer, luckily
<0> Azar: w32codecs does the old real files but iirc you need realplayer for newer ones.
<7> nvz sounds great because I hate the old creepy realplayer
<10> Could somebody please traceroute one of {www,ns1,ns2}.hut.fi - the whole /16 seems to go !H for me :-(
<0> tarzeau: underdone!
<2> liable: I got it! Thanks for all your help!
<3> nonix4: H as in hate you? :)
<7> yay ok VLC media gonna be
<9> nonix4: same here
<0> powergoal: yay :)
<9> nonix4: 8 zch-b1-geth3-1.telia.net (213.248.79.189) 0.922 ms !H * 0.815 ms !H
<11> why can't i say "username=smagnusson; cd ~$username" ? when cd ~smagnusson works.
<11> I am trying to determine the home directory of a user...
<11> in a bash script.
<10> tarzeau: damn, can't blame my own ISP for that then - ain't a point-to-point problem :-(
<9> nonix4, jm_ in nethack: H a giant humanoid--More--
<8> phobo: foo="bar"; cd "$HOME/$foo"
<9> and guess what's funny? All types of giants share a love for men. heh
<0> wtf?
<8> phobo: $HOME and $USER are predefined in the environment
<11> nvz: but what about when the homedirectory is a different from the username? otherwise I could use go /home/$username
<9> ow how i hate ATI
<8> phobo: $USER is always defined by the environment as the current user and $HOME as the homedir no matter if its /$USER, /home/$USER, /srv/$USER, /media/usb/$USER.. etc
<1> jm_ liable , I found the source of the problem, realplay use oss and I have alsa , so it is not finding the right driver(?) here is some fix
<1> apt-get intsall alsa-oss
<1> export AUDIO=/dev/dsp0
<1> aoss realplay
<1> but I still need to make it permenant cause if the browser start realplay itself, it is not using alsa oss wrapper and still producing no sound
<0> wmhtet: it should be able to use the asla oss emulating module .. snd_pcm_oss
<1> ah ... I have not tried export AUDIO=/dev/dsp0 though, I just install ***-oss and tried aoss realplay right away
<12> wmhtet: for oss support in alsa you should just need to modprobe snd-pcm-oss ; to make that happen at every boot, add it to /etc/modules
<1> liable, stew , thx, I will try that
<13> I'm having sound issues of my own. I just installed debian tonight to give it a shot and when I boot it up the wrong alsa drivers are used. I have to run alsaconf to correct it.
<9> is it right i can't build ati kernel module with only kernel headers?
<14> My very first debian install
<9> awwwww how i absolutely hate ATI. i should've brought my own awful damn nvidia crap card
<14> used testing and everything works on pavilion zv6000 laptop
<7> I am trying to use this source and it does not seem to be recognized: deb http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/debian sarge main
<13> thats good to hear ralpho. I just purchased a pavillion zd8000. It should arrive in a few weeks.
<14> apt-get i dont know how to work but i got xchat installed:)
<13> is there a reason that there is no modprobe.conf in the /etc directory?
<14> I just have to figure out how to install bcm43xx-modules-2.6.15-1-486_20060212-3_i386.deb
<3> wmhtet: for Firefox, you can simply edit ~/.mozilla/firefox/rc (or wherever your file/dir is) and add FIREFOX_DSP=aoss



<3> tubasoldier: yes
<14> got some reading to do
<14> to setup wireless
<15> mobprobe -v fglrx
<13> ralpho if you have the file you can simply type 'dpkg --install nameofpackage.deb' as root of course
<14> cool thanks
<15> fglrx:version magic '2.6.15 preempt pentiumm gcc-4.0' should be 'xxxxxx xxxxx gcc-3.3'
<15> what?
<16> jm what is that firefox you gave for?
<13> jm_: what is the reasoning for no modprobe.conf? I'm new to debian and trying to understand it.
<16> FIREFOX_DSP=aoss what does this do?
<15> I compiled the kernel and m-a 'ed the fglrx-driver and so
<15> it can't just mobprobe
<14> even my ati 200 m works with exceleration
<14> holy crap
<14> I am so pleased
<17> Hi all
<3> tubasoldier: module-init-tools used for 2.6 kernel use /etc/modprobe.d - man modprobe (that file can be used, but is optional)
<3> qwertz: what do you mean what it is for? it's to tell it to use AOSS wrapper for sounds
<13> jm_: ah. ok. thanks for the information
<1> jm_ thx again , actually I also have problem with rhythmbox also but it seems that they all are related to relying on oss, they are all solved now (partially?) thx you all again, I will try the firefox suggestion but I am more of a opera user though, I am chatting with Opera! :)
<18> hello
<6> she'aw! I found the power adapter for my ldc screen. muhuhahaaa
<18> whens the next version of debian come out?
<6> when it's ready
<18> i know that
<18> but is there like a date?
<19> then why'd you ask?
<3> !+when will etch release
<4> Etch will release WIR; SIYH. There are no current estimates. Ask me about <etch pool>, <wir>, <siyh>. Join in and help out, or see the release team's latest timeline at http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2006/01/msg00001.html
<6> the date is literally "when it's ready"
<6> etch hasn't even frozen yet, so it's a long ways off
<18> k
<18> the new ubuntu was pused back a long ways.......
<18> :-p
<18> and the new suse
<18> i'm kinda bummed
<6> *yawn* that's nice.
<18> lol
<18> i work for geek squad i gotta keep up lol
<7> I am so dumb I can't even remember if I have a DVD or CD, lspci will not show me, how can I find out?
<6> Azar: /var/log/dmesg
<7> thanks Supaplex
<6> unless you loaded ide-{cd,scsi} after boot, then it'll be in syslog
<6> "somewhere" hehe
<20> I'm having trouble getting my debian box to send & receive mail, I'm using otrs as a trouble ticket system but I can't send receive mail with it-the docs talk about send mail but
<6> cdrecord --scanbus might be helpfull to.
<16> in bash shell scripting, is this correct? ihap= $ihap + 1;
<20> when i follow them it errors out when i try to send a email
<6> qwertz: #bash . afaik, it's ihap=$(($ihap+1)) or $[$ihap+1] YMMV.
<21> Supaplex: No $ required in arithmetic expansion: $(( ihap + 1 )) or even $(( ihap = ihap + 1 ))
<21> Supaplex: ... note that the latter then tries to execute itself.
<7> what is lirc?
<21> !tell Azar about search
<21> Azar: http://packages.debian.org/<packagename>;
<0> Azar: infrared ****s iirc
<7> I am reading the documentation that came with lirc but I have no idea what they talk about
<7> ah oh thank you liable, I guess I never needed that in the first place
<21> Azar: It configures IR ports. Used for eg: communicating with PDAs.
<21> Azar: Not an IRC client if that's what you're looking for.
<21> Azar: apt-cache show <packagename> also works, BTW.
<3> Description: Linux Infra-red Remote Control support
<7> :) no I downloadedn/installed VLC and it said lirc was recommended, what stupid I am
<0> Azar: for remote controls..
<22> Hi Folks, how can I enable the gnome system sounds without using sound server?
<7> interesting though
<21> SonnyBurnett: You can use old-style sound support, Eg: oss or similar. I'd recommend alsa myself though.
<22> karsten, I use alsa
<22> karsten, I mean without using a sound server daemon...
<23> when I try to mount my usb stick with -t vfat (it is fat32 formatted)... I get the error "unknown filetype"... why can that be?
<24> alsa wont restore my mixer settings at startup, can anybody point me in the right direction to fix this?
<0> SonnyBurnett: gnome can use the sound card, just not at the same time as another app
<22> ealm, mmmmm I hada that error.... where are you trying to mount it?
<0> marccd: alsactrl store?
