<0> rsk, k, i narrow it down, gentoo sources or vanilla
<1> darksiide wait that might not be the error it gets some No such file or directory errors before it closes out
<0> thanks beandog
<2> _AxS_: yeah, but I'm trying to set "sane defaults" for all the users. I don't want to edit ~/.*
<3> ScriptDevil: if you don't care, go with gentoo-sources.
<4> What does it mean when you get the message "warning: unable to open initial console" while booting?
<2> _AxS_: I would need to set something in /etc
<0> _AxS_, SURE TRHING
<3> kojiro: i'm sure there's a default 'Xdefaults' file you could set this in instead.
<2> _AxS_: that's what I thought /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm* was :-/
<3> kojiro: or add .Xdefaults to /etc/skel
<5> FireSide: have you checked b.g.o or the forums yet?
<6> is there a tool for spell checking html files?
<3> kojiro: that has the profile definition, but you need to chose the Xterm-color profile (or any other -color) over the default Xterm profile
<3> ..which is what that line in Xdefaults does.
<1> darksiide ok figured it out... its looking for files in /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.4 except when i synced and emerged it removed gcc 3.4.4 and put on 3.4.5



<2> _AxS_: is the default xterm profile hard-coded?
<7> axxel, the problem is the net init script treats lo in a special way so lines like "config_lo" on conf.d/net won't work
<3> kojiro: by default it uses the profile files with no extension, yes.
<1> darksiide how would i tell it to use 3.4.5
<2> _AxS_: "profile files"? Can't I just change those files?
<8> _AxS_: http://pastebin.com/724773
<9> lesshaste you may use the tests on w3c.org to se if it's following the standards i guess..
<3> kojiro: sure, you can copy Xterm-olor over top of Xterm and you'd have the same result.
<3> err, s/typos/fixes/
<6> axxel, sorry I just meant the english part.. not the html part
<5> FireSide: i guess i would try to rebuild libtool based on the info here: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gcc-upgrading.xml
<10> wifi-radar is masked with ~x86 but i put in /etc/portage/package.keywords as net-wireless/wifi-radar-1.9.4 ~x86 ....but it's still not merging? any suggestions
<11> Hi :-) How can I get the string that marks a package as "testing" from a bash script? (e.g. "~x86" or "
<2> _AxS_: err, XTerm-color, the text file, or are you talking about a binary?
<5> FireSide: i am not actually sure though, sry i can't be of more help
<3> kojiro: the text file.
<5> high-freq: what is the exact line you put in package.keywords?
<3> kojiro: if you want to make -color version the default without setting .Xdefaults, you could rename any [thing]-color to [thing] and rename the original [thing] to [thing]-nocolor
<3> kojiro: (in /etc/X11/app-defaults)
<12> her ewhats a good channel for general tech
<12> I ned to fing out about buying a monitor
<12> but the one im looking at has HDCP
<13> #hardware
<2> _AxS_: I'm still not clear... I'm getting the color xterm. It does display colors. However, the default colors are -fg black -bg white, and I'd like it to be -fg gray90 -bg black. Are we on the same page?
<12> i need to know if this is a problem
<12> ok cool thanks
<13> nadir: and I'd avoid HDCP
<12> doc|home: kk
<8> _AxS_: that was the output you wanted right?
<3> kojiro: yes we are. the thing is, your xterms are not loading the 'Xterm-color' profile in app-defaults. xterm will, even with the standard profile, still show colours.
<14> how can you list what files are open and in use?
<13> SimAtWork: lsof
<5> SimAtWork: lsof?
<2> _AxS_: oh, I think I understand what you're saying now
<3> evillase: looking...
<14> if lsof isn't installed?
<5> SimAtWork: emerge it?
<14> okie
<2> _AxS_: so I could put #include XTerm-color at the top of XTerm, would that do it?
<15> kojiro: Have you tried using the xrdb command? I've found that XTerm has a tendency to occasionally forget to load it's X resources automatically.
<3> evillase: ok that should all be correct.. Are you sure about the netmask though? its definitely 255.255.255.0? if it was supposed to be, for instance, 255.255.255.128 that cuold be causing you problems.
<2> deitarion: yes, the problem is that I'd have to run xrdb each time I reboot
<15> kojiro: Hmm. One sec.
<15> Try putting these in ~/.Xdefaults
<15> vt100.Background: black
<15> vt100.Foreground: grey
<15> xterm*Background: black
<15> xterm*Foreground: LightGray
<8> _AxS_: yea i believe it should be 255.255.255.0
<3> kojiro: ...i think you would have to do it at the end, not at the beginning... otherwise Xterm would overwrite whats in Xterm-color
<15> Oops. Forgot about that.
<8> _AxS_: this is a campus network
<3> kojiro: but if you're doing that you might as well just symlink Xterm to Xterm-color
<3> evillase: check -- campuses will often use funky netmasks..
<8> _AxS_: the site specialist said the settings looked correct
<2> _AxS_: I don't think XTerm-color is complete. It has #include "XTerm" in it
<3> kojiro: Ahh.. hm.
<3> kojiro: cat Xterm-color >> Xterm ?
<16> is anyone using vlc? i cannot get any relevant codec to work, i remerged vlc 10 times with almost all use-flags and tried different versions of ffmpeg and it still wont play anything :(
<16> f*** that s***



<3> smarco: don't use it, sorry
<15> smarco: What codecs have you tried?
<2> _AxS_: deitarion: here's something interesting. xrdb -merge uses . as its working dir, and it's not intelligent. So if you 'xrdb -merge /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm-color' and XTerm-color has includes, xrdb will fail unless *your pwd* is /etc/X11/app-defaults
<16> deitarion: vlc's lates complain was about missing a demuxer for DX50
<16> latest*
<17> smarco: try mplayer.. :)
<15> I prefer KMplayer with MPlayer but I do try to keep a working copy of VLC around. Give me a sec to try some things.
<16> rsk: i use mplayer since years but i need a streaming solution
<3> ..thats a little odd..
<3> what does xrdb do, btw?
<16> rsk: i want to play the audio of the videos on another box which is connected to the speakers
<17> smarco: thats possible with mplayer
<3> ie could you p*** xrdb with a file that contains '*customization: -color' and it would then choose all the -color profiles automatically?
<10> darksiide: net-wireless/wifi-radar-1.9.4 ~x86
<16> rsk: i **** you if you tell me how to do that
<16> sorry
<18> smarco: Maybe try to debug it, to find out where it's failing.
<10> darksiide: seems right....or do i just remove the 1.9.4...and just try net-wireless/wifi-radar ~x86
<5> high-freq: yup
<5> high-freq: either remove the version at the end or add an equals sign at the beginning
<10> says invalid atom in package.keywords but i only have 2 things in there... x11-apps/ati-drivers-extra ~x86 and net-wireless/wifi-radar-1.9.4 ~x86 ...isn't that right?
<16> rsk: so, how can you do that with mplayer?
<10> nm i fixed it
<10> ;)
<10> ya was gonna add = but then again i want it updated too in future
<15> smarco: Sounds like you want an MPlayer+ESounD solution. I was using it for that purpose for a while.
<3> kojiro: yeah, try that
<3> kojiro: echo '*customization: -color' >>file, xrdb -merge file
<19> anyone use minicom?
<2> _AxS_: wait... why can't I just add *customization: -color to app-defaults/XTerm ?
<3> kojiro: because i think at that point it's too late?
<19> how do i use my eth0 to console into a 3com switch
<2> _AxS_: hmm, yeah. Anyway, adding #include XTerm-color seems to work
<19> i have the cable
<3> kojiro: if its already loading the Xterm profile i don't think it's going to stop and load the -color profile
<15> smarco: Just set USE="esd" for MPlayer, set MPlayer to use ESD for audio output with server=theOtherBox and then run ESD on the other box with options like -public so it will accept network connections.
<3> kojiro: i'm making a new user to test my theory tho.. i'll let you know if it works.
<2> _AxS_: ok, cool
<16> deitarion: that sounds great, i will try that, thank you
<20> how do I sync portage again?
<17> iamethos: emerge --sync
<0> * Your gcc has a bug with GCC_SPECS.
<0> * Please re-emerge gcc.
<0> * http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68395
<0> * env-update failed to work properly; making sure ld.so.conf paths
<0> * are setup properly. Please rerun gcc-config with the -f option.
<9> when you use emerge --sync, does it download anything other than the ebuilds?
<3> axxel: info about your profile as well..
<0> sorry about that
<3> axxel: but nothing outside of whats stored in /usr/portage/
<2> axxel: er... yeah, it downloads md5s and some patches, basically anything in /usr/portage that's not /usr/portage/distfiles
<15> smarco: XMMS and Audacious also have ESD output and you can usually use the esddsp command to trick OSS-using apps into using ESD.
<2> or ./packages
<9> kojiro okay.. thanx..
<3> kojiro: nope. xrdb info isn't saved betwen reboots, no matter what it is.
<0> _AxS_, will this be a problem http://pastebin.com/724815
<2> _AxS_: ok, testing my theory, brb
<2> er.. crap, can't reboot right now :-/
<3> kojiro: ...it _does_ work as soon as i run xrdb again tho.. i guess its a candidate for /etc/conf.d/local.start ?
<2> _AxS_: maybe. I still say there's nothing wrong with #include "XTerm-color" at the bottom of XTerm
<0> will this be a problem http://pastebin.com/724815
<21> how can I see what plugins are installed in my firefox?
<22> i think it will ScriptDevil
<16> DaggyStyle: about:plugins
<3> kojiro: true, unless for some reason someone wants the Xterm profile without color :)
<2> _AxS_: if that happens, that person can come talk to me
<21> smarco: dont have it, here exactly?
<16> DaggyStyle: type that into the url-bar
<3> yeah.. xrdb seems to be a generalization or replacement for ~.Xdefaults files according to its manpage..
<3> ..but thats all it says..
<3> kojiro: just remember if you end up editing any of the other -color profiles in app-defaults you'll have to do the same thing..
<2> _AxS_: yeah :-/
<3> kojiro: whereas setting xrdb on boot _would_ elleviate that issue..
<2> _AxS_: did you happen to notice if there's a "xrdb -reset" type functionality?
