<0> Musk Rat!!
<1> right right.. how could i mistake..
<1> mm... new kernel, but livna's not ready yet: sudo yum --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=livna list *2133*
<2> acpid???
<3> zcat : that's always such an awkward time. i'll just rebuild the livna stuff...
<4> in the middle of a `yum -y update' last night my battery died and i found the laptop was plugged into a defunct outlet. upon boot this morning i get a whole ton of "read only filesystem" errors during initialization and it boots me into a disk recovery prompt. any idea of what i can do?
<5> what new kernel
<1> Em, haven't done that since fc5 was first released (when it was a necessity). where do the srpms live now
<3> http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/5/SRPMS/
<3> i just want nvidia updated
<1> Em, oh, well I depend on nvidia, ntfs, and madwifi
<3> zcat : well it's all there. ntfs i don't care about.
<3> maybe my computer won't lock up on exiting X after using twinview with TV out.
<6> when i try to access smb shares on my fedora box from win2k3 i have a few problems
<6> anyone know about that subject
<7> Em : "patience"
<3> Anvil : nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
<7> -_-
<7> the builds have already been scheduled -_-
<3> Anvil : can't we modify the srpm spec file so i can rpmbuild --rebuild kmod-nvidia --with `uname -r` ?
<7> Em : you got the skill ? do it.
<7> Anybody is free to do it.
<3> Anvil : it seems so easy on the surface. i'm genuinely wondering if there's a good reason it hasn't been done
<8> is anyone here any good at recognising fonts?
<3> yes.
<8> Em: can you help me out? :P http://onesteprevolution.com/fonts/
<3> what'm i identifying ?
<8> the font in the images
<3> it's tiny and pixely x_x
<8> I know :(
<8> a close match would be fine :)
<3> it's very difficult to tell from such little information...
<3> it looks like a tiny bold arial hinted by windows without anti-aliasing
<1> InsomniaCity, http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/
<8> wtf? lol
<5> can you see the page source?
<1> InsomniaCity, it's saved my a couple times. i hate getting unknown fonts in PSDs
<1> s/my/my butt/
<8> ooh, this is good
<3> InsomniaCity : it's rather useless on such a small, aggressively hinted example
<8> but its failing somewhat - imag too small
<3> a font that size has to be hinted beyond all recognizability to remain legible. it's more indicative of the rendering engine than the font anymore.
<3> and i detect old Windows very keenly there
<9> hi
<9> anyone got Fedora Core 5 on HP NX8220?
<10> no, what's up/
<9> well i am fairly new so i was just hoping to check whether there were any known problems
<9> i have searched the net and i think there may be a problem getting the wireless lan working
<9> but that's ok
<9> also i am looking for a utility that i can use to re-partition the hdd as i have win xp pro on at the moment
<5> what wireless
<9> the wirless networking on the HP NX8220
<10> it's the broadcom chipset
<10> should work
<9> right
<5> what wireless card
<9> ah excellent
<11> in KDE how can i change my default filemanager
<1> InsomniaCity, trying to update somebody's website and dont have the fonts for the image-text? scrap the images and convert to actual text w/ css
<10> Webstrand: check with #kde for that one
<5> walking fedoramobile.org
<11> I am, i just know the distors have it setup different
<5> will help when you need to get the wireless working
<9> ah excellent - thanks Southern_Gentlem
<9> thanks
<9> hopefully as thegattaca said it should work but if i have probs i'll check there
<5> WalkingBoy, i am on a hp zv6130us
<8> zcat: I would, but thats a lot of work, and only partially solves the problem anyway
<5> WalkingBoy, come talk to me or sonarguy
<9> ah thank you very much
<9> :)
<5> Sonar_Guy, wrote it and i use it lots
<9> do you know of a utility that i can download and burn to cd that will allow me to re-partition the hdd?
<9> i found a few that want to use a floppy
<1> fyi: you could have bought a 42" 1080p LCD HDTV for only $1500 yesterday only. dam those prices are getting cheap...
<9> but i don't have one on the HP
<9> i am ntfs at the moment if that makes a difference
<9> i want to avoid re-installing windows if possible...
<10> NTFS can't resize
<10> so far as i'm aware
<10> only FAT
<9> not from within windows no
<10> i'd recommend using Partition Magic if anything
<9> ah right ok
<9> thanks
<10> might be a *demo or something on a p2p site somewhere
<10> ;-)
<9> whaaaaa!!!! it's
<9> i think i will just format :)
<9> haha no i am not to hot at finding *demos
<10> WalkingBoy: pm
<9> oh
<1> WalkingBoy, yarrrrrr... ye be a landlubber
<9> hi zcat
<12> parted also does ntfs resizing. http://mlf.linux.rulez.org/mlf/ezaz/ntfsresize.html
<9> thanks AndyCap - i'll look now
<13> can you mount NTFS partitions in Fedora?
<9> i have heard and read a little mixed info on that
<9> i think you can read files on ntfs
<9> but not write
<9> maybe someone more knowledgeable will say
<9> there we are :)
<6> are there any scripts that enables mp3s video and flash al at once
<6> or do u gotta do it manually
<1> Southern_Gentlem, you search the website to get those links each time? or you got a handy index?
<9> AndyCap: do you think the LiveCD iso image will be best?
<5> zcat popups aka user commands in xchat
<12> don't ask me, I don't use ntfs
<1> theplateau, there's something called "Fedora Frog" that aims to do that. Sorta like Automatix/EasyUbuntu for ubuntu
<1> Southern_Gentlem, ah. mo better.
<14> zcat: yeah, but fedora frog uses the dries repository, which replaces packages and thus is incompatible with fedora extras.
<1> Foolish, so? I've manually added Dries since FC3 or 4 and haven't hit any roadblocks with it
<14> zcat: so far so good is a terrible way to deal with things.
<14> zcat: basing advice to new users on your so far so good experience is just wrong.
<1> Foolish, so what's in dries that should be in extras
<15> any potential disaster in migrating full drive from ext2 to ext3?
<14> zcat: there are packages such as bittorrent, gdesklets, anjuta and loads more that already is in Extras.
<16> hey everybody
<9> hi
<13> I have never been able to get my internet connection working in any distrib of Linux, I thought since I got a new computer it might work, but it doesn't x_x
<13> Always failing when it's trying to obtain IP information
<14> Okiesmokie: what kind of internet connection? what kind of network setup?
<16> can anybody help me with a nvidia driver install issue
<14> ieldib: start by reading www.fedorafaq.org/#nvidia
<16> Error: xorg-x11-drv-nvidia conflicts with selinux-policy < 2.2.29-2.fc5
<16> Foolish, i did
<14> ieldib: simply do a yum update
<13> Cable internet, with an nForce onBoard NIC. Cable modem is connected to a hub, all the other computers are connected to the same hub
<16> Foolish, i already did do a yum update
<16> still don't have nvidia drivers installed
<14> ieldib: rpm -q selinux-policy
<1> gigeorge, nope. a journal gets added and you dont waste time on reboots
<9> wow - i just used K3b for the first time - that was easy!!!
<16> selinux-policy-2.2.23-15
<16> selinux-policy-2.2.40-1.fc5
<3> WalkingBoy : k3b is one of the GOOD programs.
<15> zcat, thx, just wanted to make sure i didnt wipe 50gb of data in the process
<14> do: rpm -e selinux-policy-2.2.23-15
<9> yeh i like it :)
<17> is there any way to get the root pwd to let you though a users screen lock?
<9> already
<1> gigeorge, well backup before you tune2fs anyway
<3> a few of the KDE programs are genuinely _good_ programs (not just "good for linux" but actually _good_)
<16> Foolish: Can i paste the output in #flood so you can see it ? (i.e. to avoid getting kicked out)
<1> Tac, kill the screensaver
<9> ok thanks for everyone's help
<16> thank you southern gentlem
<14> ieldib: rpm -q selinux-policy-targeted
<14> Southern_Gentlem: let me deal with this, the nvidia stuff isn't really the problem.
