<knubbze> locate postfix returns nothing
<unkn0wn2u> dpkg -l | grep mail
<slpyhd> but what is replying the smtp requests then?
<knubbze> slpyhd: exim4 maybe?
<Sarah> termo because you pipe ls output through cat
<knubbze> codernet:/etc# dpkg -l mail
<knubbze> No packages found matching mail.
<slpyhd> thats another mta
<bouncing> how do I tell the RPM of my hard drive?

<pe> Hi. I'm trying to configure the infrared receiver of my laptop. The problem is I dont even know what kind of receiver it is (my laptop is a fujitsu-siemens). I dont even know how to find out what irq and interuption it uses. Do you know a way to find that out ?
<slpyhd> I dunno it's name
<knubbze> slpyhd: it doesn't seem to have one :o
<termo> Sarah: well, what does cat do with ls?
<unkn0wn2u> exim4 what a piece of crap
<knubbze> I'll install postfix now.
<TestMonkey> termo, ls -1 gives you the same result
<itrebal> does anyone have experience with Doom3 on linux?
<termo> TestMonkey: no, what I mean is, what is in between file names when I do "ls", it's not \n
<knubbze> can I add 192.168.0.0/16
<knubbze> to mynetworks ?
<slpyhd> http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.20/doc/html/spec_37.html#CHAP37
<knubbze> omg it works :D
<knubbze> slpyhd: it's nvm i installed postfix
<knubbze> and it worked right away after adding 192.168.0.0/16
<knubbze> :)
<termo> "ls | md5sum" and "ls | cat | md5sum" give the same result... I still don't get it
<termo> does ls 'detect' whether it is piped?
<slpyhd> it are tabs I guess
<TestMonkey> termo, donno
<termo> hmm...
<FliesLikeABrick> can someone share with me how to convert flac to mp3 using lame?
<root________> what's the best way to copy /home from one PC to another without physically moving the drive ?
<FliesLikeABrick> NFS or rsync
<FliesLikeABrick> rsync may be easier
<root________> how do I use rsync ?
<slpyhd> ...
<root________> do I need any special daemons or anything ?
<FliesLikeABrick> http://www.samba.org/rsync/
<slpyhd> first try, then ask
<FliesLikeABrick> it is very easy to use
<FliesLikeABrick> the wikipedia page for rsync has a very useful tutorial in the links
<Innes> root________: cool :)
<Innes> nice nick i mean
<Innes> gn8
<TestMonkey> rsync -aH --rsh=/usr/bin/ssh --progress --verbose /home root@ipofnewcomputer:/
<root________> TestMonkey, huh ?
<FliesLikeABrick> root________ just read the wikipedia page on rsync before asking anymore questions
<Starfury^> anyone know how to run the ifconfig command in fedora?
<TestMonkey> system-config-network
<TestMonkey> nice gui version
<Starfury^> doestn show me the mac
<nitrosport_5> is there a command to install all the packages in terminal? im on ubuntu
<FliesLikeABrick> nitrosport_5 you don't want to install all the packages
<TestMonkey> Starfury^, /sbin/ifconfig shows the macs as HWAddr
<nitrosport_5> well i cant do hardly any of the commands in the terminal
<nitrosport_5> i am new to linux and need help
<Starfury^> TestMonkey: that command isnt running
<Starfury^> and yeah i am on su
<TestMonkey> is it not there ?
<TestMonkey> or just not running
<Starfury^> lol thats lame
<Starfury^> su it doesnt run
<Starfury^> su - root
<Starfury^> it does
<Dr_Willis> hmm
<TestMonkey> cool np then :p
<Starfury^> ta anyway
<Dr_Willis> nitrosport_5, ubuntu uses 'apt-get' system to install stuff.
<slpyhd> apt-get LFS
<Kevin`> LFS isn't a valid apt-get command
<FliesLikeABrick> apt-get install LFS?
<Dr_Willis> http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-tutorial/ch-dpkg.html
<mjbjr> 'su' gives you the evnironment (think $PATH) of the user that invokes it, 'su -' gives you root's environment
<Kevin`> E: Couldn't find package LFS
<nitrosport_5> ok su isnt working
<Starfury^> ok
<aib> anyone know the command-line equivalent of Ctrl-Alt-Backspace for restarting an X server?
<Kevin`> killall X
<aib> that doesn't sound like it's going to restart it.
<Kevin`> niether does ctrl+alt+backspace
<aib> yeah, but it does
<FliesLikeABrick> Kevin` ctrl+alt+backspace restarts it
<Kevin`> no, it kills it
<FliesLikeABrick> ah ok
<aib> on FC4 at least, it restarts it
<Kevin`> init restarts it
<Kevin`> not X itself
<FliesLikeABrick> aib it restarts automatically
<TestMonkey> init (level 5) restarts it
<Kevin`> how do I start debian in non-X mode
<TestMonkey> Kevin`, telinit 3 ?
<Kevin`> i'm still here
<nitrosport_5> con someone guide me through installing bzflag on ubuntu]
<FliesLikeABrick> nitrosport_5 apt-get install bzflag
<Kevin`> apt-get install bzflag
<FliesLikeABrick> #ubuntu for more ubuntu-specific help
<nitrosport_5> does it matter where bzflag is?
<slpyhd> hehe
<knubbze> I require a cl*** C network
<knubbze> :(
<Kevin`> like 192.168?
<Kevin`> or a real ip block
<heyheyhey_> uh
<nitrosport_5> matt@WORKGROUP:~$ apt-get install bzflag
<nitrosport_5> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied )
<nitrosport_5> E: Unable to lock the list directory
<heyheyhey_> just to burst your bubble
<knubbze> Kevin`: a real one
<heyheyhey_> cl***ful routing doesnt exist
<knubbze> nah i want a cl*** A network tbvh.
<Kevin`> good luck, heheh
<heyheyhey_> network cl***es = gone since 1994
<heyheyhey_> you're 12 years behind =(
<slpyhd> knubbze: ofcourse, to mail with the big guys
<knubbze> slpyhd: yeah :)
<slpyhd> and not only that, you must take alot of precautions lest you be blocked by half the world
<Roots> Do you guys think it would be a bad idea to put my wireless router about a foot away from my microwave? >_>
<heyheyhey_> roots: uh, no.
<knubbze> actually slpyhd
<knubbze> i want 0.0.0.0/0 :o
<heyheyhey_> hmmm
<Roots> I was just worried that there might be some interference if I turn the microwave on
<Kevin`> very different frequencies
<FliesLikeABrick> Roots only because it would probably get very dirty power
<Kevin`> but, I wouldn't do it
<Roots> I don't have much room in my apartment though, unless I want to drag wires around the place :p
<Kevin`> knubbze ifconfig eth0 netmask 0.0.0.0
<TestMonkey> Roots, microwaves ok, but walk about phones and bluetooth interupt my AP
<knubbze> Kevin`: lolz
<Roots> really? Hmm
<theUg> Hi. Does anyone know how to clear MBR so I could boot from /boot partition
<theUg> ?
<Kevin`> dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda bs=1 count=446
<theUg> Kevin` what count=446 means?
<knubbze> 1 mbit is 124 kbyte ? :o
<Kevin`> 446 bytes
<FliesLikeABrick> no knubbze 128
<knubbze> yeah i meant 128
<theUg> And where Windows keeps MBR, so I could back it up before clearing it, anyone knows?
<FliesLikeABrick> 1 byte = 8 bits
<Kevin`> windows keeps it in the same place as everone else
<Kevin`> in the mbr
<FliesLikeABrick> theUg just a guess: the same place as you're about to erase
<Kevin`> ^
<pontusen> have quite a prob : suddenly my resolution changed, and i cant have it higher, but my xorg.conf still shows the older as default?
<theUg> Duh, but how do I access it?
<rjw> how come this doesn't log me in? ssh user@host -exec echo 'p***word' {} \; ?
<FliesLikeABrick> so dd if=/dev/hda of=/path/to/backup/file bs=1 count=446
<Kevin`> dd if=/dev/hda count=1 of=mbr
