Comments:
<0> oops
<0> ignore either the ! or the -not; double negation there
<1> find . -name '*.jpg' ! -name '*thb.jpg'
<1> oops
<2> doesn't work for me, good theory
<0> what doesn't work?
<3> moo!
<2> that find command
<2> the ! or -not
<2> its like it ignores it and just does the first -name option
<0> did you notice my comment to only use one of them?
<3> you can use both if you like, but it's kinda self-defeating
<2> yes I did
<2> got it
<2> you were right
<0> it's not theory, I use find on a daily basis
<0> grr, my camera ****s
<0> it keeps turning off during long file transfers
<0> too lazy to find the card reader...
<4> Doesn't lynx have proxy support?
<4> I don't see anything in the man pages, --proxy switch isn't right...
<0> it should definitely respect the HTTP_PROXY variable
<4> ...
<4> Hmmm
<4> :P
<0> any reason you don't use links?
<4> No.
<4> links doesn't have a --proxy switch either :(
<4> xD
<0> yes, it has -http-proxy
<0> but HTTP_PROXY is pretty much universal
<4> okay, thank you
<5> geez Triskelios, you're on a roll tonight. :)
<0> bored waiting for camera to copy a few hundred photos
<0> (3rd try keeping the camera's attention by pressing buttons... it's like it's got ADD)
<0> done it
<0> *done now
<5> Well...... thanks for helping us out when you're bored. :)
<6> can i have a nic that has a static ip and also acts as a dhcp server?
<0> pjv_: certainly, since that's the most common configuration. a dhcp server is normally not expected to be a dhcp client
<6> Triskelios: cheers
<6> Triskelios: what do they normall set the lease time for dhcp?
<0> pjv_: depends on what it's for... anywhere between a few hours and a month
<7> hi
<7> anyone know how to add a second hard driver with data to the linux box?
<8> would a usb 2.0 printer work if my puter only has usb 1.x ports?
<9> i think it goes down to 1
<0> most usb devices are backwards-compatible
<8> would it be real slow and ****y? would i notice?
<9> brophat: try it out
<8> yeah and i guess if too slow could always get a 2.0 card
<0> printing doesn't take a lot of bandwidth
<8> ok kool
<10> what is the best linux distro for a home pc?
<11> yes
<11> what is the best? linux distro for a home PC? == yes
<11> www.linux.org for a complete list of available distro's
<12> nomin: define usage. Define skills. Define your favourite distro. Then we can answer
<10> I want a linux distro that can access the internet (web sites, email, streaming content), view office-type presentations, rip cd's, play the newest games, download p2p stuff, rip dvd's.
<0> most distros are suitable for those things (although the "newest games" will depend on your definition, and possibly on wine)
<13> Triskelios, you must be running for sainthood. you spend one hell of a lot of time answering questions from newbs
<0> hey, makes up for not documenting lots of code... besides, sainthood had the precondition that I be dead. I don't usually plan that far ahead =P
<13> lol
<13> just out of curiousity, what's your favorite language to program in?
<0> good question, probably C at the moment (but I tend to write as much in shell scripts). lisp is entertaining. for real apps I'd stick with C++ or python
<2> lisp... entertaining ... /ignore Triskelios ;)
<13> as far as C, i can agree wholeheartedly. C++ i'm cool with as well... i've never been a fan of python, just because it is so weakly typed/structured, and allows such poor code
<13> lol
<13> lisp is fun
<13> especially for ai
<2> ai is overrated
<13> that depends on your application
<2> I'm just being a problem
<2> later
<13> lol
<9> C++ and python rocks! :P
<14> is there a way to run chkdsk from linux? my windows just crapped out
<13> fsck
<14> can that do ntfs?
<14> can i run chkdsk from a boot disc? i dont have my stupid xp recovery cd
<15> is there a command to serialize commands using a FIFO-Stack? My Problem is that procmail opens to many pocesses. I would like procmail process one by one. Could you help?
<16> whats a good app to help tweak you system ? nice easy gui too . tops is ok but doesn't help all the time. Expectally when the system is dragging is a@@ allong and tops aint showing much
<15> i'm looking for a special tool. maybe you could give ma a hint where to find. Let's call it "serialtask" or "fiforun" for now. The idea: My procmailrc starts a script on every incoming email. Sometimes there are 30 instances of the script running. To avoid this multiprocessing i'd like to serialize the runs of the script by putting "| fiforun myscript" in procmailrc instead of just "| myscript". Is there a tool like "fiforun"?
<17> hmm. just wondering. how big is a sopranos series to download?
<18> Wuffi600: perhaps the standard Unix batch tool may be useful to you
<18> Wuffi600: otherwise, you could install a queueing system, such as TORQUE or PBS, however that is rather overkill for a single mail-filtering script script
<18> I'm sure the wheel you are looking for has already been invented somewhere :)
<15> Norky: oh thanx, "batch"-command is new to me. I think that command can be used to solve the problem. thank you
<19> hi, If I want to set a form on my website that people use to send message to protest against patents that sends email to some concerned parties, would this be illegal or considered spam?
<20> What are those parties?
<20> The ones that are pro-patents?
<21> munzir: can't you just link to a site where they already have a form?
<22> hello
<23> munzir: I guess if other people ended up using your form for spamming, it might be bad for you too
<23> IANAL tho. Doesn't seem too bad to me, but hey, who figures out what's illegal and what's not these days..
<24> A disclaimer could take you far :)
<25> your milage may vary ;)
<26> "O Liability! I do disclaim thee!"
<27> Mornin all... Would a bad MTU value cause collisions? I think my MTU is supposed to be 1492 and it is 1500. I have 1620 collisions in 2 days of up time. Where do I actually set MTU? /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0? or /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices? CentOS 3.6...
<18> /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
<18> MTU=
<27> How do I define it?
<18> but 1500 is the default value
<20> 1492 is used for many ADSL connections
<27> But my pppoe on my DSL router is 1492.
<18> I'd be surprised if an MTU of 1500 is causing problems
<20> The ppp0 interface might have that said
<18> ahh
<18> the extra 8 bytes is the overhead of ethernet I imagine
<18> hmm, well try a lower MTU
<27> I had to set my linksys to 1492 because Windows update was timing out.
<27> Wat is txqueuelen?
<18> try setting it temporarily using ifconfig eth0 mtu 1492
<18> man ifconfig
<27> all I have to do to restart the eth0 is /etc/init.d/network restart isn't it?
<28> date
<28> oops
<27> Now it's set to 1492... What can I do as a test? currently: RX 116691, TX 63154, collisions 1621
<27> thats packets...
<27> 19.7 M RX, 19.6 TX
<27> Would downloading a large file tell me anything?
<29> php_rox: what are you using to get the RX and TX figures?
<27> /sbin/ifconfig
<30> I don't know much about pppoe, but I think the collision's number you see is between your linux machine and your DSL router. Before doaloading a big file try run "tcpdump" in this interface check the traffic.
<30> Maybe you're receiving something from the router. It could explain a great number of collisions.
<27> HOLY MOSES... What am I looking for?
<18> run netstat -Ieth0 -c -e and see if the collisions go up whiel transferring a big file
<30> Norky, if php_rox's network in getting many collision, don't you think downloading a big file will increase this number?
<27> Dang my transfer rate is down to 160 KB/s while running that...
<27> Collisions did not go up during the download, but there were 6 more collisions before I ran the netstat command.
<27> That's bizarre... The machine is a static IP directly connected to the net (not NAT or anything.)
<27> directly connected to router to net that is.
<30> you have collisions when you have high volume of traffic, try to find out what traffic is comming in or out your network interface.
<27> But I have done 37.4 M rx (almost double without a collision).
<27> Does a tcpdump give me current traffic or does it go through a log?
<31> i get emails using fetchmail and distribute them to some local mailboxes. even though i did not specify any spam-scanning in the .fetchmailrc of the fetchmail user nor in the mailboxes, every email i scanned by spam******in. why? an ideas where this setting could be located?
<30> current traffic, try: tcpdump -n -i ppp0
<30> as I said, I'm not a pppoe expert but I think your ppp interface is attached to a ethernet interface, right?
<27> I think so... I'm new to networking at this level. I thought PPPoE was from the router to the CO, but with what I found out last night, I'm thinking that it is from the box all the way out.
<27> I have ADSL.
<27> tcpdump said ioctl no such device.
<27> also tried ppp as well as ppp0
<30> do you have a ppp0 interface?
<27> I don't think so... how do I check?
<30> ifconfig ppp0
<27> no.
<30> humm, so try ifconfig eth0
<27> I think that is only on the router. I think it is pure ethernet coming to the interface.
<27> ifconfig eth0 is where the information above came from.
