<0> y***ine: id think theres proberly some security features going on in the background
<1> ohgood: do you really think it will take that long time?
<2> i have a directory inside skel called public and its u=rwx,g=rwx,o=x in /etc/skel
<1> ohgood: for linux to be available on those I think it's just going to be perhaps one year
<2> Dr_Willis, and when i do create a new user the group is only g=rx
<3> hi all. i'm really stuck with something that i'm rather new too, but hoping someone can help
<4> engla: no. that long for me to be convinced the revB models are really revB, and to buy one. :)
<3> i've got a mail system set up, and i've got an ldap group setup. when i send mail to the group, the system log says the mail has been processed, and the exim log says its job is completed - but none of the members on the ldap group get their mail
<5> ogood, call me an idiot but how does *ubuntu root accounts work?
<1> hah, okay
<6> My cpu and system fans run all the time on my desktop machine, this doesn't seem right. can someone point me to documentation for how to change this using acpi? All the acpi stuff I can find seems to just talk about laptops
<3> does anyone have an idea where i should look next to try debug the problem?
<2> Dr_Willis, what kind of security features ?
<4> GiGaHuRtZ: sudo for anything >user, so root doesn't confuse people. i don't care for it, and you can enable root, if you like.
<5> how can i enable root in the ****ty distro
<5> without being root
<1> GiGaHuRtZ: use sudo -s -H toget a root shell
<7> GiGaHuRtZ: it's enabled. sudo -s will give you a root shell, and then you can give root a p***word.
<8> gigahurtz: what distro?
<5> kubuntu, i hate this crap
<5> im just trying to do Xgl
<5> heh
<8> use debian!
<7> it's a pretty minor headache tbh
<4> GiGaHuRtZ sudo sh and do anything you want ;)
<0> y***ine: i would imagine it just dosent let any permissions/settings get coppied over to the user home dir. what if some rootkit got in /etc/skel or similer.
<0> y***ine: however - i must admit - ive rarely if ever messed with groups.
<2> Dr_Willis, i have defind an other directory /home/skel
<2> and i have the same issue
<0> y***ine: but at least now you can clarify your question. :P and its proberly somthing that someone has done befor. Just finding them.
<0> it may be part of the adduser or whatever command is making the users.
<2> im honesty just confused i m digging into this the whole day and it not getting better
<2> :s
<0> y***ine: could make your own adduser script that does the changes :(
<4> getnoO!
<5> Dr_Willis: *ubuntu is damn evil, you don't even understan...
<4> i use getnoO i am the lete
<5> :)
<8> ^Howler: does the propriatory drivers work with xorg 6.9 when the drivers on the site are for 6.8?
<2> Dr_Willis, im thinking about that too but that would be a workaround and that's exactly what i dont really like
<5> ohgood, I generally use LFS and Arch, cause im teh l33tist :P
<4> lol
<0> y***ine: i recall a command called 'superadduser' ;P that may have more controll.
<9> DevilChaos: I'm not sure..I'm using 6.8
<8> stable i take it?
<2> Dr_Willis, does superadduser relay on skel too ?
<8> just upgraded yesterday doh
<0> y***ine: no clue - i recall usingit ages ago for somthing odd. :P
<0> heck - it may of been a gentoo-only thing for all i rember.
<2> i use to like suse in the past time but for a couple of years its just a mess IMHO
<0> getting where a lot of the distros are trying too hard to just be different.
<0> too many silly little changes - that dont really improve anything.
<1> ubuntu users are crazy. THey don't like The Matrix
<6> can anyone tell me how to turn off my system fan using acpi on my desktop machine?
<0> i copied my xorg.conf from my mepis install, to this ubuntu install.. and it wouldent work. because mepis changed some paths.. Had to fix them back.
<6> I want it to only run when the system gets hot
<2> hey Dr_Willis thanks ;)
<0> y***ine: hmmm
<0> g=rx - isent that more of a feature of the umask settings?
<2> umaske setting ? what do you mean Dr_Willis ?
<0> umask is the settings that a 'user' defaults to when making new files
<0> you want the users Group to have RWX permissions on eveyrthing the user makes?
<0> http://theory.uwinnipeg.ca/UNIXhelp/examples/umask.html
<0> To give all access permissions to the group and allow other users read and execute permission: -> umask 002
<0> This subtracts 002 from the sytem defaults to give a default access permission for your files of 664 (rw-rw-r--) and for your directories of 775 (rwxrwxr-x)
<10> Hello, can anybody help me resolving problem with the coreutils join program, please? I'm trying to join two files, each of which contains two tab-separated fields with string value (the first field) and numeric value (the second). I'm trying to join on the first field but the join program keeps missing lines. I guess there's a problem with sorting of the input files but I can't figure out what it is. Any ideas?
<11> hi all. I posted this in #debian, but didn't get a response yet, so here I am. I have two etch boxes to which I regularly connect an external hard drive to to backups. However, neither machine sees the external hd now. It's not mounting. What can I try to fix this?
<12> is there a way to burn a dvd image (mdf)?
<13> harfooz: reseat the drive in its caddy, maybe
<2> Dr_Willis still there ?
<11> ninjaz2, already tried that :-( on both machines.
<13> harfooz: is this a case with a drive that you put inside yourself or ?
<11> yes -- thermaltake case and wd drive
<13> it sounds like an issue with the drive, or connections to the drive
<11> I was wondering if there were recent upgrades that I've done to my etch boxes that might have affected the boxes' ability to recognize the drive.
<13> maybe the disk got jolted while it was on and crashed, I woudl try with a different drive to isolate the problem.
<14> Hi, does anyone know qtparted, and does there exist a better alternative?
<11> ninjaz2, I'm plugging in my key drive right now to see if the box will see it.
<11> hmmm...it's not recognizing the key drive either.
<13> harfooz: nothing in dmesg?
<11> The light on the drive did light up momentarily. but it's not found in /media.
<11> let me check.
<13> oh, so maybe it sees it, but it's just not mounting it
<11> ninjaz2, yes there is data in dmesg that indicates it's seeing the drive! That's good!
<13> harfooz: well, you could try mounting it by hand first
<13> so you can isolate it as far as possible before asking in debian again. ;)
<13> because what you said earlier made it sound like a hardware issue, rather than an OS issue
<11> that's been a big help (checking dmesg) thanks, ninjaz2. I'll form a better question for #debian now!
<11> Have a good one!
<13> i.e.,: why is etch not mounting removable media ;)
<13> harfooz: good luck!
<11> thanks!
<14> What linux program can copy a partition from one disk to another?
<14> Or even copy ALL partitions in the same order from one disk to another?
<14> Including the boot sector
<15> dd
<16> dd ??
<16> dd is acmd i guess
<16> ^cmd
<17> how to make 128 mb ram disc?
<18> dd if=/dev/?da of=/dev/?da bs=512 count=1
<14> Hmm yeah I already hard about dd but it's manual sais something about copying files
<14> I want to copy whole partitions
<18> aardwolf, that'll copy your MBR and partition table anyway ;)
<14> Is it a problem if the from disk is 40GB, and the to disk is 200GB?
<15> no
<19> i've got a lot of devices in /dev , should there be just like 10 when using udev, kernel 2.6.15.3 ?
<15> the remaining space will be unpartitioned
<17> /dev/shm is in ram?
<14> The from disk is hda, the to disk is hdc. In the command dd if=/dev/?da of=/dev/?da bs=512 count=1, where do I specify those two?
<20> cdrecord as a normal user with 2.6.8 kernel is there a fix ?
<15> Aardwolf: dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdc
<14> what does the bs=512 count=1 mean?
<17> Aardwolf: man dd
<18> blocksize = 512 bytes, count = 1 block
<18> but raf is right, rtfm
<18> dd has many other useful options to know.
<14> allright, but I should check in my BIOS first if the blocksize is actually 512 bytes or what?
<18> aardwolf, that's your MBR and partition table.
<18> this won't work, you know.
<14> oh
<18> it was a half-joking solution to your problem of not wanting to use the right tool for the job
<14> ok, but I was trying to find out what tool to use...
<21> I got problems connecting my sata harddisk to my pc after upgrading the motherboard, hope someone can help me. Details: http://pastebin.ca/41636
<18> it *will* copy your MBR and partition table, as I said, but if your drive geometry is different, it will probably only give you the same drive geometry as the old drive.
<18> aardwolf, I ***ume you're upgrading hard drive sizes, correct?
<14> Yes, I'm upgrading HD's, the old 40GB will go somewhere else, so everything of it must go to the new 200GB one
<14> too bad both my Linux and Windows installation are on this 40GB one
<14> currently there are 3 HD's in my PC, the 40GB will be removed once I got it's contents on the 200GB one
<18> you should really just do a logical copy of the data to your new partitions (a normal backup)
<14> but what about the MBR
<18> just mount your 200gigger, partition it, copy your files, rerun Grub to set it to be bootable, and move along your merry way.
<22> anyone here experieneced with broadcom drivers?
<18> insert "format those partitions" somewhere in there.
<19> i've got a lot of devices in /dev , should there be just like 10 when using udev, kernel 2.6.15.3 ?
<14> Ok, I installed qtparted, I guess I can make the partitions with that
<22> i have ndsiwrapper, but i also am using 2.6.15, which seems to have amodule for broadcom wireless
<23> hello
<18> aardwolf: did your distribution automatically partition for you? there are like 8 partition editors, from fdisk, cfdisk, Disk Druid, qtparted, etc.
<14> No, I made the partitions first, then installed Archlinux on it
<24> hi does anyone know how to form .tz files in windows
<24> ?
<25> can anyone give me links to kde4 screenshots. the main site is down
<23> how come i have 70 running processes and 91% cpu usage and the hdd is constantly making working noises. is there a way of getting ps or similar to tell me whats using all the cpi
<23> *cpu
