<0> hmmm my /etc/profile and /etc/bashrc are short.... one and three lines respectivly
<0> hmmm e2fsprogs shows how far my guess was.
<0> doesn't seem to be where it came from on this system.... dpkg -L e2fsprogs | grep blkid returns empty
<1> libblkid1 here (debian)
<0> yeah
<0> seems e2fsprogs depends on libblkid1
<0> imo that does not constitute "is part the e2fsprogs package since version 1.26"
<0> find: warning: you have specified the -depth option after a non-option argument
<0> !, but options are not positional (-depth affects tests specified before it as well as those specified after it). Please specify options before other arguments
<1> blkid 1.0.0 (12-Feb-2003) here
<0> blkid -v
<0> blkid 1.0.0 (12-Feb-2003)
<1> unless the version number refers to e2fsprogs, of course
<0> mke2fs -V
<0> mke2fs 1.38 (30-Jun-2005)
<0> that should reflect e2fsprogs



<1> unless debian split libblkid out so it would be available without e2fsprogs for users of other filesystems
<0> and ub only does what ever deb offers....
<2> anyone know of any log files i can view to see why my system crashed after the modprobe command?
<3> JPC1976: /var/log/messages to start
<0> kern.log ksymoops messages
<0> syslog
<0> any and all of them might have pertanant info on a modprobe error
<2> ok thanks
<2> my system just crashes and reboots after typing it
<0> full command ?
<2> "mobprobe ndiswrapper"
<0> eeek
<2> http://www.fedoramobile.org/fc-wireless/ndis-yum-livna/
<2> everything work PERFECT
<2> till the modprobe command
<2> works*
<2> steps 1-12 are fine
<4> try /sbin/modprobe ndiswapper
<2> nope
<2> just rebooted again
<1> don't use ndiswrapper, it would seem ;)
<2> nothing in var/log message
<2> hmmm
<2> now 2 cores are showing up on reboot...
<3> JPC1976: anything on the console as it crashes?
<2> 2.6.16.-.2133 and 2.6.150-1.2054
<2> nothing on console
<0> "su --login -c" <--- i guess that's the redhat way to get to su - or sudo -i ???
<2> just as soon as a hit "enter" after that command..
<2> yeah
<0> instant reboot..... that is about as good and [L-alt]+[sysCtl]+[n]
<0> well does su - not do the same thing as su --login ? maybe the guy that wrote that howto just likes to type ?
<2> you think i have to specifiy modprobe /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper?
<0> no. but you can try it. and watch it reboot again :)
<2> lol
<2> im so close!!!!
<0> well i'm gone for a while..... JPC1976 luck with that.
<2> anyone use the insmod command?
<5> modprobe is what you need to use
<5> modprobe loads dependency modules also
<4> sorry, wich is the command for unloading dependency modules?
<6> hey, i have gdm running as the greeter... is there any way I can tell gdm to log in as a certain user remotely?
<5> IDzied, rmmod or rmmod -f to force (if your kernel supports that )
<7> kill the gdm, and use startx ?
<8> I'm trying to find some opinion/requirements/benchmarks on software raid 5... reading some reviews about Thecus and Intel home-office NAS devices a 400MHz Intel XScale isn't enough, I'm curious as to what is
<8> I understand processor demand might scale in some way with the number of drives and the OS of choice and filesystem might have an impact as well
<9> hellllloo
<10> I need some help - Ive made a mistake, I typed chmod -x chmod by accident - how do I undo it?
<9> cobelloy: chmod +x chmod?
<10> no "-x"
<7> boot cd
<9> cobelloy: I mean +x
<9> kittenbot: doesn't really need it
<8> he can't cause chmod isn't executable....
<9> you can try exec /usr/sbin chmod +x /usr/sbin/chmod
<9> (***uming chmod is in /usr/sbin)
<9> :P
<8> heh
<10> actually - I was just directed to this: http://bash.org/?652425
<10> it was supposed to be funny
<10> but yopure all too helpful



<7> python
<7> import os
<10> ;)
<7> os.chmod()
<9> cobelloy: yay, thanks
<10> sorry - Im bored
<9> cobelloy: you need a little more to actually trick me and make my head explode :)
<7> /lib/ld-linux.so.2 /bin/chmod +x chmod
<7> and I sure there must be other ways too :)
<9> kittenbot: I know something funny to do!
<7> rm chmod; ln chmod rm ?
<7> or not quite as funny?
<9> cd /; for i in .; do; chmod -x "$i"; done
<9> ain't that evil?
<9> And safe :D
<7> getty runs as root... so root should be able to login :)
<7> don't feel like testing it though :)
<9> kittenbot: have fun though trying to figure out what files are executable or not
<9> see what is evil here?
<11> anyone setup squid with squidGuard?
<6> Hi, I have a bunch of files named blah-%.png where % is a number, and I'd like to list them in numerical order, so that blah-2 comes before blah-10 for example. how can I do that?
<1> name them properly?
<12> hmm... my network connection quit working on my other computer. i even tried rebooting (don't ask why)... shouldn't ifconfig eth0 up do the trick?
<13> greetings everyone :)
<13> Is there a command where you can search for a string in a file and have it tell you x lines before and after it?
<14> anyone know if its possible to set a keybind to emulate a click action at the point where the cursor is under?
<13> something like grep + head combined
<13> grep is nice, but only displays the line which matches... need to see x lines before or after.. usually just 3-4 lines
<15> grep -A 5 -B 5 string /path/to/file
<16> hi all, anybody help with being able to use a maxtor shared storage drive on linux like its being used on windows? i seem to have got allot of timeout errors and permission denied errors while trying to use it on debian?
<17> this is like a networked hard drive?
<16> Dr_Willis: Sure is, i was able to add it to fstab ok and setup the mount directories in two different places to try to troubleshoot things and no luck, but a clean linux install seemed to help with the timeout errors a little.
<17> timeout errors could be the drive spinning down/power saveing
<16> Dr_Willis: I hate having the fact of using windows just to be able to actually use the shared storage drive. I dont have a linux box in the house at all, and I wish I did; and I would if I knew how to correctly do things.
<16> Dr_Willis: Power saving features are disabled on the shared storage drive.
<16> :(
<17> or at least you think they are. :P
<17> could listen to it and see if ya hear it spin up.
<17> theres also some mount options ya can use with the samba shares.. but ive never had to twiddlw with them befor
<16> Dr_Willis: The web admin page says its disabled anyways.... I dunno.
<16> Dr_Willis: I used sudo mount -t smbfs -o lfs,rw,auto,username=blah,p***word=blah
<17> hmm...
<16> Dr_Willis: I forgot the stuff I typed in for the fstab, I am on a winblows laptop out on the patio right now, or I would tell you that also.
<17> is 'auto' really needed? :P in the fstab that woule make it auto mount at boot..
<17> I tend to just use that smb4k samba browser tool for my users.
<16> Dr_Willis: I liked that feature instead of having to actually mount it each time, as I have all my "backup" movies and "backup" music on it and would rather it just automagically connected, but maybe thats half of my problem. :(
<16> Dr_Willis: I also used that tool and I loved it, but sometimes it wouldnt mount correctly.
<17> yea - if that server is slow to respond...
<17> I just tend to have smb4k auto-remount the shares and cant recall any problems.
<17> so this hard drive has its own little mini-fileserver on a chip in the box eh?
<16> Dr_Willis: If you cant tell Im still sort of new to linux, but was able to ( I think at least ) to correctly build new custom kernels and my nvidia drivers.
<17> all my learning with samba - has been done over the last 10 years the hard way.. :P fighting it.
<17> that 'using samba' book is online and a must read. :P it may have some tips
<16> Dr_Willis: Its a Maxtor Shared Storage Drive 300GB that runs I believe Samba 3.10 or something close?
<17> I got a linksys nslu tht has can share 2 external usb hard drives. :P
<16> Dr_Willis: I have bought allot of linux books to help me, and mostly did help me, but it just pisses me off that I am dumb enough to not be able to get that NAS to work for me.
<17> but it runs Linux. lol
<17> I got sick of the network drives and stuff being so slow for me. I moved all my hds into this one box. I got hda through hdg now. :)
<16> Dr_Willis: Yeah exactly. Hell my ATI TV Wonder Pro works 10 times better than it EVER has on windows, I cant even get channel five to show anything on a windows box, as where on linux It would show channel five and also be able to be used on either my 25' tv or my 20' lcd flatscreen :(
<17> my latest project is converting video files to play onmy PSP. :)
<16> Dr_Willis: Well when ( ha ha ) I win the lottery thats what I was sorta thinking about, but who knows.
<16> Dr_Willis: Well good luck with that, I am sure you will have better luck with that then I will with figuring out my damn NAS.
<17> could be its using some odd upnp or some other windows-related feature
<16> Dr_Willis: Well leave it to windows to f$*k something up
<17> I enede up just building my own fileserver. :)
<17> cheap pc.. lots of hds and a simple isntall of ubuntu. it also works as my torrent-downloading box
<16> Dr_Willis: Well thanks for your insight anyways, I appreaciate it. Your the only person to even remotely come close to helping me with this issue.
<17> you can enable the verbose logging feature of samba - and get more detailed messages about the thing
<16> Dr_Willis: Within the kernel config?
<17> the samba config. :P
<17> even easier eh.
<17> but that may not work right for ya. Not sure.
<17> Hmm that thing runs linux?
