<0> blackace: All I need to do is crop a photo and upload it before i go to bed.. lol
<1> Stonefish, What can you see
<2> kavok: use imagemagick then
<3> kavok: if you have kde, kolourpaint works
<4> kavok: gimp is definitely overkill for that
<5> Stupendoussteve: okies thanks :D
<6> Z10N0101: Sure the last digit is a 1?
<2> Exposure`: gimp isn't overkill for anything...it's perfect :P
<0> I was looking for a MS Paint equivalent
<3> kavok: kolourpaint
<2> yeah, sorry...FOSS doesn't _do_ crappy ;)
<1> Stonefish, my Serial No. is: 4129561 14302
<3> blackace: here here! *gives a cookie*
<0> AterPhasma: Im using gnome lol
<3> kavok: erm... well... you could see how many deps it's got :D



<5> gimp is cool :D
<6> Z10N0101: okay, confirmed. You have hardware revision 1.0
<7> Hi, I am wondering if there is a way to make it so the "users" group has a lower priority (niceness) then other groups. Is there a way to get it to 10?
<8> AterPhasma: by emerging ati-drivers, xorg-x11 7.1 gets merged because it's a dependency. all is good. Thanks for your help.
<4> Davetha: i think you can do that with PAM
<3> metric: errr... you're welcome... I don't know that I much helped
<9> I have a USB thumb drive, and it is recognized by the usb-storage driver (according to dmesg), but I don't know how to reference it for mount...
<8> AterPhasma: effort then.
<4> Davetha: or you can just spawn a shell with niceness 10 as the login shell
<1> Stonefish, What should I do now ?
<3> Hamled: /dev/sda1 <--- try taht
<5> i`ll be back alter, thanks all
<4> not sure how well that would work with X though
<7> eck, It wouldn't just be for shells. It would be for apache too.
<6> Z10N0101: You should read the file I sent. That will describe how to make the BIOS writable
<10> Hamled, dmesg should tell you which device name its been ***igned
<1> Stonefish, :D
<4> Davetha: if you have pam, look at /etc/security/limits.conf
<9> AterPhasma, there are no scsi devices in /dev
<4> Davetha: there is a priority option
<11> wow
<11> now instead of error 16
<11> I get error 17
<12> Hamled: if you cannot find the device even with dmesg, you can try sg_map from the sg3_utils package to tell you that
<11> whoopee doo
<3> Hamled: check dmesg again, there should be several lines starting with a set of device entries
<13> Kal-El: You're getting a higher score
<4> Kal-El: what is error 17?
<3> Hamled: like... mine has about 7 lines that start with sda:
<2> ? grub error guide
<7> eck, thank you very much. That is just what I was looking for.
<14> http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/grub-error-guide.xml
<3> Stupendoussteve: yes.... yes he is
<11> Cannot mount selected partition
<11> This error is returned if the partition requested exists, but the filesystem type cannot be recognized by GRUB.
<3> did you compile the filesystem into your kernel, or as a module?
<2> Kal-El: show me the line for your /boot partition from fdisk -l please
<10> hrm, missing reiserfsprogs?
<9> AterPhasma, this is the entire thing: http://pastebin.com/757154
<11> tdr, no reiserprogs are there, but reiserprogs don't come into play at grub
<11> blackace, as soon as it boots up with cd I will
<11> AfterPhasma, built in
<11> Oh joy, IE crashed
<2> Kal-El: get firefox :)
<15> i dont think you will get much sympathy in here :P
<3> :D
<15> windows AND IE
<3> true enough
<11> blackace, too much of a memory hog
<15> haha
<3> Kal-El: opera then
<16> anyone know why x11-base/xorg-server-1.0.99 blocks new nvidia drivers? is this a temporary thing to ease x7.1 in ?
<11> AfterPhasma, Opera is da ****
<1> Stonefish, ouuchhh!! but I have to open my box :S :S
<2> Kal-El: language again, no more warnings.
<1> Is there any other way ?
<3> kortec: no, the nvidia/ati binary drivers are incompatable with xorg-server > 1.0.99
<17> kortec, you'll have to wait for nvidia to release a 9xxx driver for *nix because only then will they support the new Xorg 7.1 ABI
<18> hello... i'm just installing gentoo now and i used genkernel for the kernel. i am on an amd64 proc but the kernel name says x86_64 (even though in the handbook theirs is amd64)... did i do someting wrong or is everything okay?
<11> AfterPhasma, ?????
<16> AterPhasma wow, that's a big downer.. have they released some sort of time table for that?



<11> blackace, ?????
<3> kortec: not that i know of
<19> what is the kde screenshot util? kde-snapshot ?
<11> blackace, hmmm
<2> fiber: nope, it's fine...amd64, ia64, and x86_64 are all technically x86_64
<2> Kal-El: we have a clean language policy here...you have been warned twice now.
<3> silly ia64...
<2> AterPhasma: ia64 rocks
<18> blackace: thanks :-)
<11> blackace, Disk /dev/hda1 doesn't contain a valid partition table
<1> Stonefish, ouuchhh!! but I have to open my box :S :S Is there any software mode ?
<3> amd64 does as well, sirrah :D
<2> and actually, I lied, ia64 isn't x86_64 :P
<11> blackace, but what's even more fascinating
<4> Kal-El: maybe you should fix that :-)
<3> Kal-El: you should try /dev/hda <-- that's the right one :D
<2> Kal-El: ...list the disk, not the partition
<9> AterPhasma, any idea what I should do about the USB drive?
<11> blackace, spits out the three partitions as expected on my drive
<3> Hamled: I'm actually at a loss
<20> what does 1.234e+15 mean?
<11> blackace, each with systemid being 83/linux
<21> Hello all. I'm writing an ebuild. Is there a better way of doing cp -r in src_install() ?
<4> chovy: it is a big number
<3> chovy: 1.234 x 10^15
<21> chovy : 1234 followed by 12 zeros
<21> chovy : Or "1.234 with the decimal point moved right past 15 digits"
<2> CareBear\: no, not really, if you really need to do that
<20> CareBear\: thanks
<3> how can i force my swap to be a specific file? say... pagefile.sys
<22> shee is taking a really long time to read my music from a ntfs drive (possibly ten times longer thatn foobar2000 would in windows). Do you think the speed will drastically increase if the files were on a ext2 partition?
<2> CareBear\: also, there are people to answer the more ebuildy questions in #gentoo-dev-help, less noise too :P
<22> *Banshee
<22> and why the hell is what I just wrote in bold on my screen? :]
<3> foooooooobar! woot! :D
<21> blackace : Unfortunately I do. This is a moronic Perl www-app that does the same in it's install file. (11k files..)
<4> AterPhasma: I think you could just use swapon
<3> hmmm
<2> CareBear\: ewww
<6> Z10N0101: 'course you have to open the box. How else you plan on modding it?
<22> AterPhasma: hua, so what do you think? :]
<20> * = metachar
<19> what's the ebuild for kde-snapshot
<13> ksnapshot?
<3> DrSlony: i don't know, i only have ~600 songs to check through, so it takes me about 20 seconds
<21> blackace : Cool! I didn't know that channel existed. Last time I was around #g-dev was the only option and since that's +m and pretty slow I figured best chance was here. :) Thanks for the info!
<3> DrSlony: with quodlibet, but whatever
<4> AterPhasma: dd to make a file that is big enough, then mkswap the file and enable swap on it with swapon
<2> AterPhasma: read about loop= in man swapon ;)
<19> Stupendoussteve, thanks
<2> CareBear\: no problem :)
<3> blackace: I am currently reading my local swapon manpage (tm)
<22> quodlibet? QUODLIBET Online Journal of Christian Theology and Philosophy?
<21> blackace : Yes, and the app is littered with Fedora Core ***umptions and /usr/local paths. The install script even installs a bunch of perl modules included in the app tarball.
<1> Stonefish, If Im rookie in this things of solding cables, Do you think I would be able to do it ??? Is it easy ?
<2> CareBear\: and -dev isn't +m to protect the devs from the users...it's to protect the users from some of the devs ;)
<3> eck: i plan on using the pagefile.sys from windows, so i don't have to have two separate swap partitions
<2> CareBear\: oh god, I hate when people bundle deps :/
<6> Z10N0101: personally, I just paid $5 for someone else to do it
<4> AterPhasma: well, that is sort of suboptimal because you will have to mount your windows partition rw
<23> blackace++ I didn't know you could use loop devices for swap. And you can encrypt them too.
<4> AterPhasma: which isn't such a great thing if you only want to be writing to one file
<3> eck: naw, 2G part specifically for swap
<4> AterPhasma: that is *way* too much
<1> Stonefish, I have read some texts where the installation of linux is able with just software
<24> eck: not to mention format it as something like FAT32. ugh.
<2> RiverRat: :P
<21> blackace : That's a good reason for +m. I haven't reflected on why, for my immediate purposes the fact was all that matters. :)
<6> Z10N0101: I'm not familiar with any other methods. There's softmodding, but that's unreliable.
<3> eck: pardon me? so far as I know, 2G is the recommended swap size
<4> You don't really need more than 256MB of swap
<23> CareBear\: It gets a bit out of control in the dev channel at times.
<24> AterPhasma: how much RAM do you have?
