<0> slummer: my /etc/inputrc: set meta-flag On set input-meta On set convert-meta Off set output-meta On
<1> morning all
<2> Sure is. Morning, that is..
<3> alt-tab works in console (on another machine)
<3> alt-tab with nothing on the command line brings up all executables in $PATH
<0> slummer: ok, does alt-tab find only executables and not dot files or test files?
<0> s/test/text
<4> how to set up a compose key ? I have edit /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/*/Compose w/o success
<5> okay i'm a genius and edited my image location in lilo.conf and forgot to run /sbin/lilo before i restarted...now i can only boot into windows...any help
<5> ?
<3> I just get executables unless I use an absolute path
<3> or './'
<0> slummer: ok
<3> using an absolute path I just get a directory list- no text files.
<0> slummer: ok
<3> same with './' just a directory list
<3> barfly: me thinks you need to use your installation cd and run the install up to the point where it asks if you want lilo installed in the boot sector
<3> say yes then exit the installation
<3> but having never done that, I have no direct experience in the matter.
<5> awol: hmm well i tried <my linux boot label> single and <boot label> init=/bin/bash but all that happens is it says linux loading....then black screen...i'm on slackware btw
<5> it also tells me that TAB will show available images, but it does not work
<6> yah... and yer on freenode too not efnet... but n/m
<6> barfly: got a rescue disk handy? like the cd or a toms disk?
<6> barfly: www.toms.net/rtbt is great btw
<5> yep...i think it's the first disk
<5> so if i boot from a cd then i have to mount my filesystem to it to run lilo?
<6> well try the cd then... it should have instructions on how to boot to rescue mode
<6> been ages since i used slack
<5> cool beans
<6> barfly: yeah you'll have to mount your file system
<6> barfly: and run /mnt/sbin/lilo -b /dev/hda -r /mnt
<3> gnubien: I get a list that includes text files when I use a command first
<0> slummer: ok, will try it
<0> slummer: have fun ;)
<7> hi, I've eth1 xx.xx.xx.3 and eth2 xx.xx.xx.7 and I would like to use dhcpd3-server only with the eth2? tips?
<8> itom: If there's no option to specifically bind to only one interface, you could always block incoming DHCP packets on the other interface w/ iptables
<8> Which is kind of hackish, but it'd work
<8> itom: My dhcpd allows specifying the interface(s) to bind to on the commandline
<7> sekhmet, I use dhcpd3 in an debian testing
<8> itom: "man dhcpd" and find out
<7> I'll try *again* :)
<9> I have IFACE="eth1" in /etc/conf.d/dhcp
<9> dunno about your dist
<8> Zider: Debian doens't have a conf.d
<9> ah :/
<8> Zider: In fact, I don't think I've seen that on anything but Gentoo
<9> well, I don't know.. I use only gentoo.. it was just a thought.. :P
<9> I used debian once.. for an hour or so.. me and apt don'? get along.. ;)
<7> I spend my time bad, I'm concentratin in the dchpd.conf
<7> "specify at command line what interface.."
<7> when the service start I must specify the interface where "wait" incoming ask
<8> itom: As an argument. "man dhcpd" to find out what options your dhcpd supports. If you can specify an interface on yours, then check your init scripts to see how it's launching the program
<10> how to setup the fqdn in linux
<8> itom: I'm not sure how Debian would specify that, so you'll have to dig around a bit (or ask in #debian, I suppose, or hope that someone more familiar with dhcpd on debian feels like answering)
<8> aybr: Hm? What are you trying to do?
<11> how to setup us the bomb?
<7> sekhmet, ok thanks
<10> mail server
<8> aybr: You'll have to be a bit more specific
<10> i need to get fqdn when issing command like hostnane -f , not just name of the host
<8> aybr: Generally distributions will use a file /etc/domainname or something similar to set that
<8> aybr: (or sometimes as part of a more global config file)
<8> aybr: The command "domainname" can be used to set it by hand though
<7> sekhmet, I've solved :)
<7> INTERFACES="" in /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server for specify the interface
<8> itom: Good deal
<7> sekhmet, I found a better solution.. not in the /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server, but in /etc/default/dhcp3-server
<8> Good to know
<12> re
<13> morning
<12> could be
<12> it isnt, tho
<13> 2.45am down here
<14> does any one know where i can download the wrt54g firmwear that is linux
<13> what's a good program that does backups with exactly the same image? HD to HD
<15> dd
<16> pjv : use dd only if the drives are identical and have identical geometry
<13> ananke: if not? what would you recommend?
<15> there's also ghost for linux
<15> among others
<6> you can use dd if you copy the files and not the disk geometry
<17> does anyone know of a console pdf viewer?
<6> as in dd if=/home of=/mnt/hdd or something...
<13> Fiver: i'm just trying to keep up with the times with the latest backup utils, if there is any new ones out there :)
<12> pjv: mondo/systemimager
<15> pjv: ah, I see :)
<12> I favor latter
<13> kool thanks guys
<12> cool*
<6> Agiofws: contradiction of terms
<17> awol, ?
<17> meaning ?
<6> Agiofws: pdf is a graphics format... but anything's possible... try freshmeat
<6> anyway.... it's late...
<8> Agiofws, awol: there's various utils to extract text from PDFs, which sometimes work pretty well
<8> Agiofws: Depends on the PDF, of course
<17> are'nt all pdfs the same ?
<8> There's different ways of storing the text
<6> sekhmet: indeed....figured as much... dont use a lot of pdf's tho
<8> Sometimes the text is even stored as just a graphic
<8> In which case you wouldn't be able to, of course.
<8> Anyway, you could have some luck with this, perhaps: http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~clock/twibright/pdf2html/
<17> ok what if its stored as text ?
<17> sekhmet, would lunx be able to open a pdf doc ?
<17> lynx ?
<17> or links
<8> Somewhere in ghostscript there's a util "pdf2ps" which can be used to generate a postscript document, which I believe may be able to store the plaintext in there. If *that's* the case then you could use ps2ascii or the like
<8> Also many postscript-processing tools are able to deal with pdfs on their own, though I believe those are generally ghostscript-backed, so your luck with pdf2ps is likely to be similar to whatever those other utils could do
<8> Agiofws: No console-based web browser would be able to open a PDF manually
<8> Your best bet would be to try one of those conversion tools
<17> sekhmet, awol thank you
<8> I've just had a bit of luck doing ps2ascii on a pdf directly
<8> I've noticed that pdf2ps tends to render text into graphics, there may be some cmdline flags to alter that behavior
<6> i avoid 'em heh
<13> hmm 40 degress cels tomm.
<13> oops degrees
<10> how to figure out the name of package that contain dig utility
<0> aybr: in slackware dig is in the /n pkg
<0> aybr: /n is network
<10> i need the command that i can use for such thing , btw i use debian
<12> aybr: apt-file
<12> aybr: or packages.debian.org search form
<18> spike: pdo has been down for a week or two
<12> yeah, I know
<12> and honestly, wgas
<12> after the incredible flame 2 weeks ago, for what I matter, they can all go to hell

<19> I have two CDs that I created with XCDRoast that should be identical. I put them into two cdrom drives and did cmp /dev/cdrom /dev/cdrom1 the cmp command did find a difference. Is it possible for two CDs to be for all intents identical, but not reported as such with the cmp command?
<0> Renfield: maybe the fony baloney sony root kit is on the second cd ;)
<20> try a md5sum ?
<19> Dr_Willis: If cmp returns a difference, how would md5sum not?
<20> one way to find out
<20> if it does make a diff.. well then you got another lead to follow. as it stands now - you are at a dead end.
<8> Renfield: I'd suggest doing a "diff -r" on 'em
<8> Renfield: Instead of a block-level compare
<19> sekhmet Oh, so mount the CDs?
<20> hmm.. yea good idea.
<8> Renfield: I know that CD media isn't always comparable... I've always been a bit curious as to how this relates to data CDs, but when you're processing CD audio data, apparently it's acceptable to have bit differences here and there
<8> Renfield: Yeah, mount 'em and see
<19> These are data CDs.
<8> Renfield: Right, as I said, I'm not sure how that relates to data discs. :)
<8> I do know that I've had data DVDs whose block-level compares were different, but the actual data retrieved from the disc was the same
<8> It's all quite odd to me
<19> I did do a file level comparison and that was the same. My fear is that they can still be different. There are a number of options in XCDRoast that can be changed without changing any of the underlying data.
<9> don't they get unique ID's when you burn them?
<19> Really?
<19> I never heard of that.
<20> also couldent the udf/iso/utf options change some things. that only get used if mounted in speficic ways? for file name translations and so on.
<19> Yes, exactly.
<19> I need to verify that those things are also the same.
