<0> or qemu...
<1> yeah..i'm going to use vmware sinc ei have it setup already :P
<1> i'ven ver used qemu
<0> ah, well then you're right :)
<2> hello I was wondering: how anyone here tried RR4 Linux? Its based on Gentoo I believe
<3> any fedora experts here? i was reinstalling the kernel on my FC4 box earlier and ended up clobbering grub.conf. problem is, even though i've rebuilt it, i'm getting a "switchroot: new root mount point expected" error, followed by a kernel panic.
<3> any suggestions for getting the machine to boot would be much appreciated :)
<4> hey folks
<4> ok, when typing letters with accents, i get funny letters and symbols
<4> how would i correct this?
<5> Anyone home?
<6> hi
<7> Where does ifconfig pick which device to apply eth0 eth1 etc from?
<6> I am using QT parted and on creating a reiser partion is leaves 5.83 M free. ?
<8> olleh
<8> ;]
<7> I rmmoded the old driver and it's trying to find it.
<5> Hey guys, I'm sick and tired of installing so distributions over and over and switching for no reason, i've probably installed 40+ now yet i've barely even used the commandline/bothered to learn :(
<8> riddle me this please.. is there such a beast as a gui desktop lighter than typical X please?..
<6> if i create remainder hda1 for reiser it gives me alwyas 5.83 free left over. can i just ignore this?
<5> Is their a distribution that would be perfect to learn the command line etc
<6> Theef: slackware
<6> Theef: you can do it on any distro, but slack has less distractions
<6> I am having problems partitioning with qtparted and I am afraid to commit as I need windwos
<9> Theef : get shell programing in 24 hours
<10> Hmm
<10> If I'm booting off a partition halfway along the disk
<10> And I delete a partition at the beginning of the disk
<7> here's an example: I try an ifconfig eth0 up and it tries to find my old rmmodded driver (via-velocity) instead of the new card (r8169) that we have in there
<10> Will all the partition numbers be b0rked?
<7> where does ifconfig know to link eth0 to a driver?
<11> fdisk doesn't renumber partitions.
<7> or to a spesfic device in general
<8> heya ignacio .. you are omni-present cross all digital forms of communications twould seem rofl
<12> hey can anyone help me configure sendmail, right now it sends from localhost
<8> anyhow.. trying desparately to find an x-variant or ?? that can load some gui mode desktop on 11 yr old laptop toughbook cf-25 w 133mhz cpu, 16ram, 233megs swap on hdd..
<12> and most servers dont like that
<11> Damn Small Linux
<8> thats what ive loaded onto it ignacio
<8> ripped it out of the 25.. dropped hdd into a 27 that'd boot to cdrom ignacio .. and loaded hdd installed dsl on it
<8> but booting take me to blank screen ignacio
<8> cant seem to handle even vga=769 4bit 640x480 even ignacio
<8> rofl. unholy-crap has joined this channel.. too funny..
<8> planned that nick didya unholy-crap lol
<13> where can i get the new redmound linux updates
<14> tech9iner what
<14> who in the **** are you tech9iner
<14> or are you just amused by my awesome nickery
<8> rofl.. 2nd one.. yea yea.. thats what happened <badSNLimpression>
<13> where can i get the new redmond stuff
<14> recompiling kernel here;; i dont have a /usr/src/linux directory?
<14> im supposed to have /usr/src/linux with a Makefile in it
<14> i only have /usr/src/kernels/somekernelversion/
<14> and /usr/src/redhat/
<8> okay then..
<15> unholy-crap: that's weird
<14> fedora core 4
<15> unholy-crap: look in /usr/src/kernels then
<11> /usr/src/kernels contains the headers need to build modules.
<8> different tact .. anyone know of video problems on weak-kneed laptops irc channel / community please?
<15> unholy-crap: or simply download your kernel sources from www.kernel.org
<11> unholy-crap: http://thebs413.blogspot.com/2005/10/kernel-26-on-fedora-based-systems.html
<14> aye, the makefile is in src/kernels/2.6.11-1.1369_FC4-i686/
<14> but
<14> i did herede im trying to figure this out
<14> thanks ignacio
<11> You might want to consider updating your system as well.
<11> yum update
<14> my 'system'?
<14> like other packages
<14> before i update the kernel
<8> riddle me this ignacio .. wrong thinking am i?.. if w95 could run a gui desktop at 800x600 16bit.. surely there's a way for linux video to same... maybe better no?
<11> Well, it will also update the kernel.
<11> What video card does it use?
<14> oh god
<14> youre telling me that yum update
<15> unholy-crap: the kernel update is optional using yum, at least for FC3
<14> will update my kernel?
<11> If there's a kernel update, which there is, yes.
<11> The latest FC4 kernel is based on 2.6.15.
<14> i think i updatd my kernel like earlier this week with the package manager
<14> but it isnt hte latest kernel
<14> yeah ignacio
<15> unholy-crap: your old kernel will be saved, and it will remain a boot option in the grub menu
<14> yeah
<14> i updated earlier i think, its at 2.6.14 for some reason
<14> there is 2.6.11 and 2.6.14 at boot; odd
<14> how can i be sure that this kernel update will have apm support
<14> for suspend and such
<11> It may not; the kernel config doesn't vary widely between releases.
<5> This may sound kind of shallow, but i don't like slackwares ... ugly by default if that makes sense
<14> ugly?
<5> is their something similar to really "learn" linux on, but still a bit pretty = /
<15> Theef: ubuntu
<16> Theef, what window manager are you using?
<14> well your pretty interface is a level above the rest of linux
<17> You could pick just about any distro then
<8> 0000:00:14.0 VGA compatible controller: Chips and Technologies F65550 (rev c6)
<8> k ignacio .. ^^ please ;]
<5> woland this will be my first ever hard drive installed distribution
<5> but from live cds i really enjoyed fluxbox
<16> then install fluxbox on slackware
<14> yah
<5> it comes with fluxbox
<2> hello I was wondering: how anyone here tried RR4 Linux? Its based on Gentoo I believe
<17> Theef, besides, you could make slackware pretty too, and learn something in the process
<5> but i dont know how to make it "ungugly"
<16> have you tried kde or gnome?
<14> i use gnome but i think i shoiuld be using kde
<11> According to xorg only bit depths 15, 16, and 24 are supported on that card.
<18> I mounted a windows NTFS partition, and I'm trying to cd into the directory 'Documents and Settings' but it won't let me.. How can I cd to a directory with spaces?
<5> woland_ in my honest opinion i dont like kde/gnome
<5> they seemed to make things choppy for me to = /
<19> _pure, hit tab
<10> The latest KDE makes Windows look like poorly-thought-out crap
<19> or use \ to escape the spaces
<14> how can i find out what version kernel i am running
<19> or put it in ""
<11> uname -r
<14> something simlar to which?
<18> Ah, thanks DarkCow
<8> could it be so obvious as im trying to run too lite ignacio ? as in calling for 640x480 4bit could cause blank/black screen ?..
<11> It doesn't support 4-bit.
<8> hmm..
<11> The driver, that is.
<11> 15 minimum.
<8> it just tried 1st time to load gui.. i can barely see torsmo on dtop.. no icons.. and grainy griany dtop wall paper on damnsmalllinux ignacio .. weird
<20> I run snort with the command /etc/init.d/snort start ... it runs without problem but I can't see it at ps aux | grep snort why is that?
<14> yum wants to install kernel version 2.6.14
<14> or 15, rather
<14> when yum update kernel
<8> good news that at least it supports it.. thanks ignacio
<5> woland_: some suggested Gentoo, but that it isn't very "newbie friendly"
<15> hawking: maybe it hides itself from the process list? would make sense as it's an IDS..
<5> any recommendations = /
<15> Theef, ubuntu
<20> herede : so how can i check if it's running or not?
<15> hawking: dunno, never used snort myself
<15> hawking: portscan your host and watch syslog?
<14> how can i check the version of a package
<14> something similar to which?
<11> rpm -q foo
<19> hawking, /etc/init.d/snort status?
<14> i want to check the version of kernel
<5> herede: I tried ubuntu, i ordered it by cd using shipit.com but = /
<5> It does everything for me
<5> with GUI
<15> unholy-crap: uname -r
<5> etc, i barely saw the command line
<5> keep in mind, i'm going to be learning linux offline with a book, since this computer doesn't have a net connection
<5> = /
