Comments:

<0> how do i login as root on the desktop?
<1> s/chroor/chroot/
<2> avont_: open a shell and run su
<0> huh?
<0> i know
<0> i meant the other wya but nm
<3> avont_: What editor are you using?
<4> narg: I had that problem, I got round it by using webmin its self to allow other ip's
<0> gedit
<5> evening all
<6> Oryn: what do you mean itself? Like from with webmin?
<2> avont_: its not a good idea to login to x as root
<0> once i upgrade the kernel will i lose all my stuff?
<4> narg: yes
<2> nonick007: /msg dpkg chroot install ; /msg dpkg debootstrap ; the current installer can install on some SATA chipsets, but not all
<7> avont_ : no



<3> avont_: Try running this: "su -c gedit"
<6> Oryn: this is going to be fun, since I'm logged into the box over ssh to begin with :p
<5> how do I scan cd's ive burnt so apt-get can use them, from the command line?
<1> stew i know how to chroot install thankyou , will check other stuff
<2> submarineshaun: use apt-cdrom
<0> ok
<0> im in the terminal
<0> how do i open the conf file in the terminal
<0> less?
<5> stew: thank you
<8> 00:58 < Dwonis> avont_: Try running this: "su -c gedit"
<1> /msg dpkg debootstrap
<9> How does one add CFLAGS to an apt-get -b source ?
<2> Induane_: you don't /msg dpkg debian/rules
<9> ??
<0> Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
<0> Xlib: No protocol specified
<0> (gedit:847): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
<0> avont@debian:~$
<4> narg: if you dont have a local browser on the machine you can forward the port over ssh like this: "ssh username@remotemachine -L10001:localhost:10000" then on your localmachine simply type into your browser http://localhost:10001
<9> you can't change how its built?
<10> avont_: just use nano
<2> !tell avont_ about paste
<0> that didn't work
<2> !tell avont_ about run stuff as root
<6> Oryn: crap, it denies 127.0.0.1 now. I used lynx, and it didn't even let me try.
<3> avont_: Try running this: "xhost +localhost ; su -c gedit ; xhost -localhost"
<2> Dwonis: no
<9> The reason I ask is that lib3ds isn't compiled with -fPIC which is necessary.
<3> avont_: or yah, just use nano
<0> ok
<11> bicth
<3> avont_: Actually, use "nano -w /etc/lilo.conf", so it doesn't word-wrap
<3> stew: no?
<0> i don't know how to use nano
<11> joe
<11> hi
<2> Dwonis: xhost+ is never ever a good idea, its in fact a very bad idea, especially if you don't know what kind of network they are connected to
<10> avont_: its easy as pie. It tells you how to use it when you open the program
<2> student: do you have a debian related question?
<3> stew: hence, localhost
<0> ok
<4> narg: put the file back as it was (or de/re-install it) you might be lucky and be able to do dpkg--reconfigure webmin
<12> i have this yellow icons in start menu in icewm if i pick up any of theme but Infadel! Why?
<10> avont_: just do as Dwonis says
<2> Dwonis: its just that there are much safer ways of accomplishing the same thing
<0> ok
<0> ok, tell me what tro do
<4> narg: feel the power of ssh >:)
<10> avont_: su && nano -w /etc/lilo.conf
<3> stew: Agreed, but do you have a simple command-line for xauth that does the proper thing?
<9> Hmmm I can't believe that you can't compile with different flags using apt-get -b
<2> Dwonis: /msg dpkg run stuff as root
<9> Completely makes that ability pointless
<3> stew: point taken
<10> Dwonis: sux is a much better way of accomplishing the same thing
<10> Dwonis: easier rather
<12> i have this yellow icons in start menu in icewm if i pick up any of theme but Infadel! Why?
<13> is it possible to debootstrap a 'foreign arch' (Like debootstrapping a mips on a i386?)
<3> sonyman: But it's unfortunately not installed by default, is it?



<14> pusling: perhaps if you have a crosscompiler
<10> Dwonis: no, but debian comes with apt by default...
<2> js_: debootstrap doesn't compile anything
<15> someone here that could help me out with some sed?
<14> stew: oh
<3> sonyman: heh
<4> well I'm off to bed nn all
<2> pusling: i'd ask #debian-boot but my guess would be yes
<0> ok
<0> back
<0> sorry about that, had to do something
<16> pusling: you can do that, but you probably don't want to, unless you're intending to use the bootstrapped installation on a separate machine
<0> none of those ways worked
<0> should i just login as root on desktop and do it?
<13> SammyTheSnake: I will use it on another machine.
<3> !run stuff as root
<17> "export XAUTHORITY=$HOME/.Xauthority" in your environment BEFORE you su, DO NOT use "su -" because that blows away your variable setting above. See also <sux>, <sshx>, <mit-magic-cookie>.
<3> avont_: ^^
<0> ok
<18> grazie
<19> hi
<19> again
<0> dwoin: ok, i did the xauthority thing, now what?
<19> sitill have not yet figured out ircd config but at least i tried
<3> avont_: Do the same thing as before: "su -c gedit"
<3> avont_: (in the same terminal)
<3> avont_: "XAUTHORITY=$HOME/.Xauthority su -c gedit" (without quotes) would also work
<20> What's the standard way of using iptables in Debian, is there some standard init script I can get that sources a file (or its output) as the iptables rules and runs iptables-save on shutdown and iptables-restore on startup or do I have to write it myself?
<18> ei bella gente ho appena istallato Mepis 3.4 qualcuno mi dice di piu
<0> im in!
<16> guiliano: engles solamente
<2> avar: zless /usr/share/doc/iptables/README.Debian.gz
<18> sorry
<0> what do i need to add now?
<21> giuliano:
<21> !it
<3> avar: I think you're supposed to just run iptables, and then iptables-save and iptables-restore will automatically save/restore it, but I haven't tested it.
<18> si
<2> Bucciarati: i dunno that you should send him to #debian-it for mepis questions
<18> jes
<3> avar: I just put the a script in /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/ :)
<18> ok thanks
<21> giuliano: note: this is not #mepis, nor #mepis-it either
<3> did dpkg die?
<0> alright
<0> i did the lilo config
<18> ok by by
<3> avont_: After you edit lilo.conf, you have to run "lilo" (as root) for the changes to take effect
<0> well, wait what about the terminal, the kernel install is paused right now
<22> i am having trouble setting up sound on debian, can someone offer help?
<2> unity: what does "uname -r" say?
<22> stew, 2.4.27-2-386
<0> Dwonis: so reboot, right in the middle of the update of the kernel??
<23> whats a simple photo viewer?
<2> unity: /msg dpkg 2.4 alsa one-liner
<3> avont_: probably not
<2> liable: gqview, if you want more simple than that, display from imagemagick maybe
<3> avont_: I wasn't paying attention to your original discussion, so I can't really say what you should do next
<0> ....
<3> avont_: Ask whoever it was you were talking to originally
<0> continue the install right? the lilo changes should take effect when i reboot
<23> stew: ta
<22> why doesn't dpkg want to talk to me?
<3> avont_: That sound reasonable.
<0> ok
<2> dondelelcaro: dpkg seems to have died, or at least gotten quite lethargic
<22> the alsa one-liner, is it somewhere on the web? i googled and no luck. can i browse dpkg's factiods?
<0> ok
<0> dodone
<0> ok
<0> done
<0> it said installation successful
<0> Setting up kernel-image-2.6-686 (101sarge1) ...
<0> debian:/home/avont#
