<0> hey all w***up
<0> Was wondering if anyone has any experience with FC4?
<0> I installed xfce but I'm trying to figure out how to add it to the sessions list on the gui login.
<0> I basically want to just boot to xcfe instead of gnome
<0> I can't find the config file for the gui login screen session list. And switchdesk isn't working for somereason anyone know of another way?
<1> lo ppl
<2> which login manager do you use chuckyp ? gdm?
<1> is it possible to create virtual network intefaces on Linux, all having a unique MAC addresses , using a single real interface?
<1> I am aware of creating virtual interfaces with ifconfig but you cannot change the MAC using that
<1> Any help/redirection is appreciated
<1> The above questions stems from the need to create virtual WiFi clients
<3> will i get in trouble is i load fedora on a machine that already has ubuntu and xp dual booting?
<4> ElChupey: no
<5> hey guys ...hi..well I'm using linux-pam..and can't login as root in console..why?
<5> :(
<6> I seem to have lost my anti-aiased fonts while messing around in KDE's control Center. Anyone know how I might get them back?
<7> Is there a way to prioritize my RAID-1 drives to read preferentially from the fastest (unless it's busy)?
<8> does snort have similar capabilities as tripwire?
<7> I'mnot sure, but I think tripwire mainly looks for changed system files, whereas snort snops on network traffic.
<8> Budd: yeah that's what i have gathered, but apparently snort can also have functions similar to tripwire
<7> You probably know more than I do, then.
<8> Budd: having raid probs?
<9> hi, are there any chans here for GPS devices?
<8> Roey: you could try #electronics perhaps?
<9> I considered it... ok
<9> thanks
<7> mgg: Well, RAID-1's not as fast as I would expect.
<7> It looks like the kernel sometimes picks the slowest drive to read from when the other drives are available.
<7> Roey: I know a little about GPS with Linux
<8> Budd: it's suppossed to be RAID 10, however have you tried out LVM?
<7> I've chosen md for now, because it has boot-time detection. Easy to use as root volume.
<7> And In my case it is in fact raid-1 not raid-10.
<9> Budd: so I'm looking to buy this Garmin Streepilot C330
<9> Budd: I generally don't like Garmin
<9> Budd: they do a lot of lock-in tactics
<9> Budd: but this device I've seen in operaiton, and it looks genuinely user-friendly.
<9> Budd: as for hooking it up to GNU/Linux, I have no clue.
<7> Roey: If it speaks NMEA, and has an RS-232 connector, it'll work.
<7> I've used a magellan without much trouble (once I jiggle the baud rates enough)
<10> DHCP changes my /etc/resolv.conf file regarless of it permissions, how do I change this? I'm using an Actiontec GT701-WG.
<8> Cashel: is this for dhcpd? or is it the dhcp client doing it? did you put your entries in the /etc/dhcpd.conf for your nameservers?
<9> Budd: it has a USB port. And Garmin only speaks their own language.
<9> Budd: but thanks though!
<10> mgg: I dont think I'm using dhcpd no.. I have a broadband account and the router uses NAT and DHCP, so I forward all ports in to my linux box. The problem is that something continualy adds nameserver 192.168.0.1 (my router) to resolv.conf, this causes names not to resolve...
<10> mgg: hoping I can find a way to change the behavior instead of making a script to copy a proper resolv.conf.. maybe I should just do that tho...
<11> Cashel: dhcp client config I would think
<10> amphi: I'll give it a whirl
<10> amphi: is there a particular command I should issue? I dont seem to have dhcp anything in my path..
<11> Cashel: the machine that is have that ip added to its resolv.conf obtains its network config by dhcp?
<10> amphi: no it doesnt
<10> amphi: but it acts like it does
<10> amphi: its a known issue from what I"ve read, I'm just trying to make the changes I have to make because of it stay that way, instead of being rewritten at boot time (or is it when the DHCP lease expires? I'm not sure)
<11> Cashel: you could make resolv.conf immutable ;)
<10> amphi: how do I do that?
<11> man chattr (***uming your fs supports it)
<10> thanks..
<10> already tried -r--r--r-- root:root but no love...
<10> chattr +d <file> ?
<10> looks like what I need..
<10> Any of you running AMD64 x2 ?
<11> Cashel: chattr +i shurely ;)
<10> hah
<10> damned commas
<12> amphi: what is the difference between chmod/chown and chattr...? Is it mater of same attributes?
<10> disk v fs attribs I take it?
<12> ahm
<13> weeeelll... I have a newbie question. I've recompiled the kernel. Everything is fine and working but for some reason when I append vga=791 to grub I still get 800x600. I'm not sure whats up with that.
<12> beered: how do u add the vga=791 to grub?
<12> I mean in what file and where in it?
<13> decOding: in boot/grub/menu under kernel stanza.
<13> /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15.2 root=/dev/hda2 ro vga=791
<12> it seems that 792 is for 1024x768
<12> the synthax in the file is fine, just try with 792
<13> decOding: why would that help?
<12> hrm
<12> strange situation
<12> I have in my grub file 791 for the first image, and 792 for the second one...
<12> both run in 1024x768
<13> hrm.
<11> decOding: yes - also chattr is an ext2/3 thing, not available in other fs's AFAIK
<12> ahm
<11> decOding: see under Documentation/fb in the kernel source tree for vesa modes
<11> beered: ^^
<12> amphi: checked that, the hex is the right one for 791
<13> amphi: I have generic vesa compiled in... I think. Let me check.
<13> amphi: what is vesa frame buffer called in the kernel?
<13> amphi: oh, wait. never mind.
<12> vesa...I suppose o_0
<13> amphi: CONFIG_FB=m
<13> is that it?
<13> CONFIG_FB_RADEON=m
<14> i'ts radeon's fb
<14> CONFIG_FB_VESA=y
<14> this is it
<13> ahhhh... let me check.
<13> Yes, its there. "Support for frame buffer devices" is M.
<13> with ATI Radeon support as M.
<14> what driver u use in xorg.conf ?
<13> let me see..
<14> cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf|grep Driver
<14> would be easiest
<14> :)
<13> I'm gonna paste it now... it looks ok.
<13> Identifier "ATI Radeon"
<13> Driver "radeon"
<13> VendorName "ATI Technologies Inc"
<13> BoardName "Radeon Mobility M6 LY"
<14> ahm
<14> what distro u use?
<13> dec0ding: Debian.
<13> its confusing heck outta me.
<14> all seems to be fine
<13> I don't know... its strange.
<14> there is other possibility to try
<13> yes?
<14> but not sure if it will change anything
<14> to use 791's hex code
<14> like
<14> vga=0x317
<13> ohhhh... I think I know why.
<13> hahahahahahahahaaaaaa (crazy laugh)
<14> why
<14> ?
<13> you won't beleive this
<13> I had the vga=791 line in the wrong grub kernel!
<13> :-)
<13> jeez.
<13> LOL
<14> hehe
<14> To err is human
<13> BRB I have to restart.
<14> k
<13> Can I also add idebus=66 to this grub line? I'm not sure about the syntax.
<14> not sure either
<13> googling confirms that this is ok. BRB.
<13> phew.
<13> I have vga=791 and I get a blank screen until kdm starts.
<13> hrmm...
<13> Built 1 zonelists
<13> Kernel command line: root=/dev/hda2 ro vga=791 idebus=66
<13> ide_setup: idebus=66
<13> Initializing CPU#0
<13> I never see vga execusting or switching in that dmseg
<5> hi guys i'm having a problem when I boot udev gives something like /lib/udev/udev_run_hotplugd abnormall exit :( and that stops my runlevel to don't go to rlv1
<15> my computer doesn't even have that file. how did you install udev?
<16> I have it
<17> Ok, so some application is complaining it can't find monospace:size=16 - and this is a minimal system, so no X is installed, but this app needs some X libs... where exactly can I find what font it wants?
<15> CHodapp: um, that sounds like an X font, so it's requesting from the server
<17> this is a framebuffer app, it doesn't use any X libs, I guess, but does use Freetype
