Comments:
<0> CHodapp: i don't think so
<1> CHodapp, it was the env variable, I don't have that ifle anyway
<1> file, too
<2> witless, what two things is the RCA cable connecting?
<1> witless, you're touching something that's earthed with the other end of the cable
<3> hackmiester[LT]: did that work?
<1> witless, hold the plastic bit of the cable in your hand on the end that's not plugged in, does it hum now?
<1> amphi: yeah, thanks much
<0> hackeron: CHodapp: they aren't connected to anything - one end in the stereo, the other just hanging free
<0> not touching anythign
<2> witless, it's going to pick up EMF and noise like that
<1> [hfuller@IBM-99-AFZ00 ~]$ echo $HTTP_PROXY
<1> http://127.0.0.1:8118/
<0> cable's about 15 feet long
<1> witless, on my stereo even if it's touching the carpet it hums
<0> hackeron: it was touching the carpet i think :-)
<0> maybe i need a shielded cable?
<1> hah
<1> yeah
<1> well no
<1> just don't touch it to the carpet =P
<2> shielded may help
<1> probably not if it's touching hte carpet
<0> the scenario is: i have this long cable that runs from the sound card in my music server in the basement to the stereo on the first floor. i had the hum when it was plugged into the sound card; disconnected it, still hummed. pulled the cable up through the floor so i could isolate it - still hums. i don't think it's the carpet.
<1> hrm
<1> yeah
<1> in that case it wouldn't be
<1> ...
<1> the stereo earthed?
<0> there is a ground connection but docs say that's just for the phono (if i had one)
<0> maybe it's 15 feet of unshielded cable picking something up
<4> ENCCMD="find ./ -name '*.wav' | xargs flac --verify --best" why if I call this, it's visually OK, but find says : find: paths must precede expression
<1> witless, yeah, shielded would probably help
<1> witless, however, you still might try earthing it if it's not a three prong plug at the mains end
<4> manual execution of the echo $ENCCMD works fine
<0> i think i'll try attaching a shorter cable and see if the hum reduces (as a diagnostic measure)
<5> D|G|TAL: No go. I turned off DMA, tried it, the errors still occured. And when I ran xfs_check in my gentoo livecd, I got a bunch of "task_in_intr" errors about once per second
<4> patr: try smartctl
<4> first ***ure your drive is not fubar
<6> Hi, after compiling and installing the kernel 2.6.15 ich can login from the LAN into the router over FTP but it's not possible to login from the LAN into the router ... 421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection ... ist this something new with the kernel ? With 2.4.28 everything worked finde ...
<5> slpyhd: Already did. Used some diagnostic utils in Window$, the drive is fine
<0> hackmiester[LT]: when i detach the RCA cable from the CD-in connectors, the hum goes away. would that point away from a grounding problem?
<4> patr: newfashioned controller?
<4> patr: used any odd hdparm switches?
<1> witless, well... sorta. grounding is a mysterious thing. try a shorter cable first though.
<4> compare capabilities to set settings
<5> slpyhd: I installed via Debian. I personally use Gentoo, but I thought Debian would be better for a family member's PC
<5> It's a regular ol' IDE drive
<4> you may be running years old code then
<4> sata has improved quite a bit
<4> I think
<5> slpyhd: Yeah, I know, which was another thing I thought of... old code
<4> try upgrading that libsata crap
<5> Could the old kernel be the problem?
<4> if it uses it
<5> slpyhd: I can't do anything, basically. I try to apt-get install something: won't let me because of the errors
<4> always use a recent stable kernel
<5> even if I "man" something, I get the errors, although it loads
<5> slpyhd: I will go and check the hdparm settings, to see if they're ok. Any other suggestions before I go?
<4> no, kernel, system ata libs, settings
<4> thats about it
<4> if applicable
<5> alright. hopefully I can install the new kernel
<1> I freaking hate my computer
<1> hate hate hate
<4> just buy old stuff
<4> and let others bleed and pay
<4> old intel based mobos
<7> git er dun
<7> whats up
<4> goi niks doen
<8> ALKJEDFKLSDJKFLSDLFJKLSDJFKLSDFLSDKFJKLSDJFKJLSDJFKLSDJKFLJKLSDJFKSD
<9> yes, son, yes.. *pet*
<9> all gets okay...
<8> If my ****ing laptop crashes one more ****ing time I'm gonna ****ing explode
<8> ****ing a
<9> ah yes, i remember, language isn't anymore important in this channel (as it was some years ago)
<1> ARGH.
<1> I'm here now
<10> hackmiester: s/****ing//g
<10> ;-)
<1> What could be the problem here? In X, I am hopping happily along, and randomly my pointer freezes. I can't C-A-BkSp, switch VTs, or ssh in.
<11> ati card?
<12> hackmiester[LT]: freezes forever?
<8> yeah, Blis***
<12> hackmiester[LT]: sounds like a crash. Usually because of bugs of one sort or another.
<8> yeah, Triffid_Hunter, but this has never happened before
<8> Blis***, it's never done this before, I've had the OS installed for like six months
<12> hackmiester[LT]: there is a long list of cl***ic causes for crashes/lockups.
<12> hackmiester[LT]: often it is some hw problem.
<8> hrm
<8> it seems...
<11> 6 months eh.. maybe your heatsinks are full of dust and need cleaning?
<8> it was caused by an audio cd being in the drive o_O
<9> that's why everyone wants SMP: wait with 2 CPUs for the spinlock ;)
<8> laptop, Triffid_Hunter
<8> TheBonsai, lol
<12> TheBonsai: it is amazing! With dual core you can wait twice as fast :-)
<9> heh
<8> I want my audio cds. what can I do?
<12> hackmiester: if it was the audio CD then odds are that your automounter screws up.
<13> hm someone want to give me some pointers on iptables? I have a masq rule, but I want to change everything to default deny except for samba on the local interface. I would just start with everything being deny, but I'm not sure how to do that without blocking out masq.
<8> they crash my machine :(
<8> Blis***, but it plays for a bit! That's why I didn't see it as the problem immediately!
<14> anyone know python in here?
<12> Gambit-: http://www.sabi.co.uk/Notes/linuxIptables.html and #iptables
<15> CLucas916; try #python
<12> hackmiester: if it plays for a bit then probably it is some hw problem, or a kernel bug.
<14> cy_, thanks
<15> yw
<8> Blis***, yeah, I'll probably update my kernel now...
<13> Blis***, I'll take a look, then.
<12> hackmiester: check your log to see if there is any OOPS, usually '/var/log/kern.log'
<1> Blis***, don't have that..
<12> hackmiester[LT]: it will be there with a slightly different name. Look also at 'messages' and 'boot'
<16> how do i change my default group ID?
<17> how can i check available memory, cpu load etc.?
<18> Drakas: uptime, top, free, df
<19> yup
<20> Drakas: you on KDE?
<20> Hi. I noticed that there are a few programs for running iTunes servers, but are there any apps that I can use to get songs *off* an iTunes server (i.e. someone else's) ??
<11> aridese: edit /etc/p***wd or use usermod
<16> Traffid_Hunter: and if im not root?
<21> hey slpyd
<1> dw_, there are few because apples is the best, and you only need one
<11> aridese: try newgrp
<20> hackmiester[LT]: sorry?
<16> Traffid_Hunter: asks for p***word ;(
<20> hackmiester[LT]: not sure what you mean
<17> dw_ no
<17> im in shell
<9> is there a way to emulate a bluetooth headset with a bluetooth dongle (e.g. to use for mobile phone)
<17> im in bash
<1> dw_, let me explain... apple has an official way of doing a daap server on Linux. why use any other way? Apple's is going to be compatible with iTunes.
<20> hackmiester[LT]: I didn't ask that :)
<1> oh
<20> hackmiester[LT]: I've got daap here and it's running fine. I'm just wondering: how could I get music off other people in the iTunes network?
<1> I thought you said, "there are many..."
<1> dw_, use ourtunes, mytunes, one2ohmygod, applerecords
<1> in that order
<1> all java except mytunes
<20> hackmiester[LT]: I'm on Linux
<20> hackmiester[LT]: so no mytunes, then, only, I guess?
<1> dw_, you used to be able to build mytunes on Linux, but the site went down and you can't find hte source any more
<1> dw_, so stick with ourtunes is what I say
<17> hackmiester[LT] :D haxorius :)
<1> :)
<20> hackmiester[LT]: I really appreciate the help -- thank you very much :)
<1> not a problem, dw_.
<22> hello. some questions. first, is it possible to have two swap partitions?
<11> yup
