Comments:
<0> Aww, he left...
<1> LimuxBlues: sorry, got who was helping who mixed up... that should have been addressed to Killoman
<1> Kikkoman*
<2> ok, np
<3> wait a minute, i am on another comp with net
<4> Kikkoman, on dialup? I used wvdial, which is quite smart by itself
<5> hello
<6> ah, fixed. the bash-completion "ssh [tab]" -> unterminated 's' command is fixed by debian bug repository entry :-)
<7> What exactly goes on the boot partition? (if you make one)
<8> Hello,Is there a way i can view myphpadmin on local host
<9> anyone know why i get *** DANGER *** unable to remove socket power when i remove a pcmcia card
<10> Why is it that portage wants to install x11-base/xorg-server-1.0.1-r2, even though it is listed in /etc/portage/package.mask?
<5> i m looking for a console-based music files and radio streams player ?
<11> gramuxius: Try adding it to packages.provided instead.
<12> .provided? huh? why?
<5> in fewer words, a command line music player
<5> any candidate ?
<10> RiverRat: No difference
<1> Ghotcom: I'm using MPD at the moment, its not bad
<12> gramuxius: pastebin the emerge command and its output please
<1> gartt: your boot partition contains the Kernel for your system
<5> midnightoker: yeah, i will check thatr
<8> mplayer xine xmms
<12> gramuxius: oh, and take whatever you added to .provided back out unless you really know what you're doing
<3> i'm in '>' , how to go back on livecd root#
<5> wrathzz: xmms has GUI , does it provide a CLI ?
<13> Kikkoman: exit, probably
<7> midnightoker: Right, but it has nothing to do with being bootable, right?
<2> Kikkoman: alt+f2
<11> gramuxius: /etc/make.profile/package.provided <- Did you add it there?
<13> Ghotcom: not afaik
<3> noup
<14> Kikkoman, grub> or just > ?
<13> Ghotcom: mplayer/gmplayer has both, though
<8> no but i think irssi does
<12> Ghotcom: mpd provides a couple of cli frontends iirc, mp3blaster might work too
<3> ok
<13> Ghotcom: I think xine+a gui has both, too
<1> Ghotcom: MPD is just a headless daemon, and uses one of many clients to control it. so i run that on a headless box, and have clients on my laptop and other machine
<11> gramuxius: Actually, you should listen to marienz as he knows portage much better than I.
<12> Ghotcom: mplayer can play stuff without X but there's probably something better
<10> Ok, hang on.
<5> reisio: ok
<5> marienz: ok
<1> gartt: not as such no
<8> Ghotcom irssi
<7> midnightoker: Why in the gentoo handbook does it show /dev/hda1 boot partition toggled bootable?
<12> RiverRat: (.provided is the right thing to do if you just installed xorg-server without using portage for some reason, not to avoid a dep or something)
<5> wrathzz: 8|
<12> RiverRat: (means "I installed this by hand", not "I don't want this")
<15> do you have to reboot the system if you make changes do the ioscheduler?
<12> Renacor: define "make changes".
<12> Renacor: if they are in menuconfig then you'll have to recompile the kernel and reboot.
<8> Ghotcom i'm getting mixxed up
<5> wrathzz: :)
<1> gartt: i believe grub makes the /boot bootable, and stores some stuff on there (like device maps and boot images). I use lilo and if i do an fdisk -list /dev/hda it shows none as bootable.
<5> wrathzz: thank you for paying attention
<5> wrathzz: with me
<5> wrathzz: :P
<7> midnightoker: Ah, I see- I always wondered about that
<10> marienz: http://pastebin.ca/39681
<15> marienz: If I change the value in /sys/block/sdd/queue/iosched/read_expire
<12> Renacor: then that change will go away if you reboot :)
<11> marienz: Thanks, I ***umed that he had some X already installed and that is why I suggested it.
<1> gartt: i've never actually thought about it before. but yeah :)
<3> after ifconfig it listed- lo inet addr:127.0.0.1 next?
<12> gramuxius: is xorg-server in /etc/portage/package.unmask?
<16> What is the "speedup" part that is displayed after a sync is nearing completion?
<15> marienz: so it will go into effect immediatly?:)
<7> midnightoker: But if grub stores stuff necessary for booting, that's it's own thing and there's no reason to toggle the /boot partition as bootable, right?
<12> Renacor: afaik yes.
<12> Renacor: (and you'll have to re-set it after every boot)
<15> cool thanks!
<1> gartt: no, no reason... although if it stores itself in the boot partition and not in the mbr, then the boot partition would have to be bootable. -does that make sense?
<17> I'm thinking of getting a new PCMCIA card for my laptop. What would be a good choice? (I need it to work with wpa_supplicant as well as the normal wireless networking)
<18> is there any way of finding out my laptops fan speed, processor speed etc.?
<12> gramuxius: package.unmask overrides package.mask. If you're trying to unmask all of xorg-server and then remask a specific version it won't work. Instead you can unmask just the version(s) you want unmasked.
<7> midnightoker: But grub stores itself in /boot anyways instead of the mbr, right?
<19> sandman, I would guess it's how much faster it was to download only part of portage instead of the whole thing. Just a guess though
<17> (right now I have a linksys WPC11v3, but it isn't working too well with wpa_supplicant (or normal wireless except on Debian-based distros)
<1> raginghog: for processor speed, cat /proc/cpuinfo
<20> aww man.....I didn't make / big enough
<11> Renacor: /etc/conf.d/local.start Is a file for making those changes for you on boot.
<1> gartt: i've never used grub, so that was just conjecture.
<20> is it fairly easy to resize a partition/filesystem if there's a completely empty partition directly behind it?
<7> midnightoker: I somewhat understand, but I thought toggling something bootable didn't do much nowadays?
<12> sandman: man rsync or some other rsync doc may have that info. It is not a portage message, it's printed by rsync.
<21> roger55: can i remove the files that are in /var/tmp/portage/?
<11> Shirakawasuna: It should be but I've heard a lot of horror stories. Always make backups. :)
<20> I meant to create a 15GB / partition, but it's only 4GB
<18> midnightoker, thanks
<20> RiverRat: backups don't matter, it's a fresh install anyways
<11> dealer: Yes
<18> fan speed? finding out? anyone?
<1> gartt: i... dont know. will have a look into it
<20> raging_hog: lm_sensors
<21> there's a homedir, is there any problem?
<11> dealer: Provided that you aren't currently emerging anything.
<1> raging_hiog: you need to play with lmsensors
<21> i'm not.
<18> isnt lm_sensors the one which blows up mobos?
<7> midnightoker: Thanks, I should figure out how it works more before I use it in my system anyway :P Thanks a lot
<12> RiverRat: btw, py 2.4.2-r1 without the libstdc++ link just went in :)
<1> gartt: no probs -thanks for making me think :-P
<3> after ifconfig it listed- lo inet addr:127.0.0.1 next?midnightoker?
<21> RiverRat: where are the tar.gz files that the emerge's download?
<11> nice.
<20> does anyone here know how to resize an ext3 partition/filesystem?
<8> Ghotcom there is amarok kscd and kaffeine
<1> raging_hog: i've never seen it blow up boards, and it seems to be the standard way of doing it
<22> What should I use as a MIDI player in GNOME?
<11> dealer: /usr/portage/distfiles
<12> dealer: /usr/portage/distfiles/
<20> I'd like to expand it
<1> Kikkoman: I dont know what you're trying to do. Just gave you a way of finding out the if name. but if it doesn;t exist.... I only came in half way through
<11> I beat you here marienz, do we need a neutral party to tell who typed faster?
<17> anyone: ping
<5> wrathzz: ok, thanks heaps
<12> bleh I don't care
<21> thanks
<23> I have a problem with kde, when I try to move windows it renders garbage for the window... the guys in kde told me to ask my distro... so here i am.
<5> wrathzz: will try mplayer and mpd first
<22> RiverRat, you did. =P
<21> RiverRat: can i clear that two?
<11> lol
<2> Shirakawasuna: ext2resize it works with ext3 too
<18> midnightoker, i read somewhere it might send an ibm laptop to shop. could there be problems with fujitsu
<11> dealer: Yes, but if you need to re-emerge anything you'll have to download it again.
<20> Linuxbeak: yes, but I need to resize that + the partitions
<20> Linuxbeak: luckily, the partition right after / is empty and unused, so I should be able to resize it without fear
<8> amaroK is the player for KDE i think its a long time since useing it
<20> Linuxbeak: how would I expand the ext3 partition, exactly?
<3> midnightoker:no names in ifconfig, trying to setup my internet conection over a dial -up, modem
<20> Linuxbeak: using ext2resize + fdisk somehow?
<21> RiverRat: no problem, just to know.. what's your internet speed?
<23> can anyone help me with kde rendering garbage when i move the window? Im using nvidia drivers and xorg 7 (modular)
<11> dealer: aDSL
<21> RiverRat: so.. and the speed?
<2> Shirakawasuna: no idea, never needed to use it, if I want to make a bigger partition LVM2 is the way to go, but I usually use another partition as another mountpoint, i.e. /var and so on...
<8> Ghotcom kscd and kaffeine Also kde i think
<11> dealer: About 1Mb/s
<20> I guess I'll just start over
<21> RiverRat: nice.. here is 600kb/s =]
<24> hello
<21> RiverRat: but in your country, 1Mb/s is very expansive?
<23> no help?
<1> dealer: bulldog in the UK does 8mb/s :-)
