<0> hi
<1> hai2u
<2> Hello anyone.
<2> Does anyone know about "X" and it's extensions? Specifically, if it has an extension called "XIM"?
<0> backintrack
<0> hi all
<3> what chmod and chown should /dev/lp0 be?
<4> jshriver: whatever you want it to be.
<5> jshriver: there's no one rule for what it has to be, but as an example, on my system it's root.lp 660
<3> I keep getting Parallel port busy, retry in 30seconds..
<3> tried restarting cups and it goes away
<3> but as soon as I try to print something it gives me that and nothing prints.. I ahvent made any changes to anything other than chown mynick:mynick /dev/lp0 since i was getting permission errors
<3> any ideas?
<3> tried doing a test print fro within cups
<3> and also tried "cat hello.ps > /dev/lp0" hello being a a2ps generated ps file from a hello.txt file
<3> it's worked before so not sure why it's not working now
<3> and I can do a test print frmo within the printers menu system
<3> I also get this when I try echo to lp0
<3> Parallel port busy; will retry in 30 seconds
<3> er this I mean
<3> bash: /dev/lp0: Device or resource busy
<5> chwon it to root again, and try the cat test as root
<3> then lsof | grep lp0 only has parrallel module
<3> k
<5> in other words, go back to your last known working setup and see if it still works
<3> hrm still says resource busy
<3> lpq has no listings..
<3> *perplexed*
<3> chown root:root /dev/lp0 and chmod 660 /dev/lp0
<3> stopped cups and tried echo test
<3> going to run lsof again something must be using it
<3> hrm how do you unload a module?
<3> maybe if I unload and reload the parallel module it might free it up
<6> rmmod ?
<3> guess it's builtin...
<3> I know I shouldnt ahve to reboot to get it working
<7> Hi all, ive just recompiled the kernel in Slackware 10.2 ( from 2.4 to 2.6.15.4 ) in order to get my ATi driver working. The OpenGL now works fine but i have sound problems. alsaconf is finding my sound card and install it, but it gives way to low sound. I check all the mixers and unmute all the channels, but nothing seems to helping. Anyone familiar with this ?
<8> i have a shuttle an35n board with athlon 2400+ im trying to get it to do more then 1995 mhz
<8> but when i try to raise the fsb above 133 it does 1800+ at 1400mhz, if i leave it at 133 and put the mutli to 12.0 it works as 2400+
<9> Dame : new kernel? if so, did you update ALL alsa pkg's of the same version number while the new kernel is running?
<7> Sorry gnubien i am not expirienced with recompiling kernel. How can i check what pkg's i have on the old kernel ?
<9> Dame: ls alsa* /var/log/packages
<7> thx gnubien, i will boot into old kernel now and check :D
<10> how do I eliminate word wrap in vi?
<9> Dame: wait
<7> i am downloading a tgz package with the drivers
<9> Dame: ok, you need alsa driver, library, oss and utils
<11> Hi there
<11> Could anybody explain me the difference between using vesafb and nvidiafb ?
<12> can anyone point me to a good wiki on using dd /dev/zero bs count...etc...for creating image files?
<13> How can I tell if procmail is invoking correctly? My exim4 log says that messages are being delivered via procmail, but none of the rules in my .procmailrc are running, and the procmail logfile I specified is not getting created. Messages are just going straight to /var/mail/username without any other explanation.
<14> hikenboot: What's there to know? All you're doing is creating a file of some particular size, filled with zeros...
<14> IdahoEv: Try temporarily replacing procmail with a small shell-script that writes "HELLO WORLD" to some file somewhere ?
<13> Actually I think I just found it. Syslog had a message about a "suspicious rcfile"
<12> in the line dd if=/dev/zero of=fedora.img bs=1M count=1 seek=1024 i am looking for defitions of bs count and seek...with examples for instance i want to change it so that it creates a six gigabyte file...this would be easy if i new the definitions of those three parts
<12> and "man dd" doesnt say jack...
<14> bs is block-size, count is the number of blocks you want...
<14> a 6GB file would be something like bs=1G count=6, or bs=1M count=6144...
<13> okay, I found the problem, but it's pretty dumb, and it causes another problem. Procmail will refuse to run if your user directory (containing .procmailrc) is world-writable.
<14> IdahoEv: What's wrong with removing the world writable bit from the user's home directory?
<13> But if I don't have it world-writable, then it complains that it doesn't have permissions to write to LOGFILE=$HOME/pm.log
<12> ok..thanks
<13> or rather, generates a syslog message "Error while writing to /home/username/pm.log", I'm not 100% sure that it's a permissions problem.
<13> but there's no other file there, so I don't know what else it would be
<12> ok kittnebot what is the seek part for?
<14> IdahoEv: The brute force way is to, as root, create $HOME/pm.log with the right permissions so avoid the problem... ?
<14> hikenboot: I think that leaves the beginning of the file alone, but I've never personally used it.
<12> ok so i will skip it thanks
<13> yeah, that seems to have done it
<13> weird. Okay, thanks for the help!
<14> *meow*
<13> kittenbot: if you really are a bot, your programmer is a genius.
<15> every time I try to start an x program from a term I get a xlib connection error with display :0.0 refused by server. How can I correct this?
<9> pddean: term is a root terminal or user terminal?
<15> it is just aterm. It does that if I am root or user
<15> gnubien, I take it back. It only does it if I am root.
<9> pddean: yea, for security root can not open x apps by default; only user can
<14> pddean: One solution is to copy .Xauthority from the home directory of the user running X into root's home directory.
<14> Another solution is to do 'host +localhost', from an xterm -- this allows anyone with an account on the box to connect to your x-server.
<9> kittenbot: easy work around the security if it works ;)
<15> okay. I didn't know that. I have never run into this on my gentoo box. Just put vector on an old laptop and have found severall little things like this. Thanks.
<9> kittenbot: kittenbot hackenCleaver, what a moniker ;)
<15> thanks for the help that worked great!
<16> what shell command appends a new line to a file? (e.g., a system log)
<17> why cant i connect to ares network, is ares working?
<18> I have a sound configuration problem, no program but mplayer can play music http://pastebin.com/572775
<14> mistermocha: echo "meow" >>somefile
<16> kittenbot: thnaks
<19> how can I see all the dependancies of an RPM?
<19> rather, of an installed rpm..
<19> I have mysql-3.23.58-9.1 installed
<19> I want to find out what would break if I removed it
<20> nshb, that's hard. If it's redhat/fedora/etc there may be a db of pkg dependencies or similar that you can check
<20> nshb, e.g. something like a --what-depends
<20> nshb, alternatively you could check what the rpm provides, and track down the dependencies manually.
<21> I had a power outage a few days ago and my linux bot and my win bot [the one i'm on
<21> and everything went off. as i rebooted my linux comp; it no longer had a net connection
<21> i've checked all the configurations and everything still seems to be the same but no matter how much i tinker i've not been able to get my net connection back up
<21> any ideas?
<20> is it just ethernet?
<20> or pppoe or similar?
<21> its ethernet
<20> does it use dhcp or static address?
<21> wall--(cable modem)--(router [192.168.1.1])==Computers. I originally had my linux box set up with a static address 192.168.1.110/24 and it worked with that
<20> you try manually setting up the interface?
<21> `/etc/conf.d/net is setup thus: [config_eth0=( "192.168.1.110/24 brd 192.168.1.255" ) // routes_eth0=( "default via 192.168.1.1" ) ]
<21> yeah
<20> link light on the nic and/or router?
<21> both yeah
<20> does it blink if you ping 192.168.1.1?
<20> (sorry if this sounds elementary. I'm trying to be systematic)
<21> no
<20> ok. Errors?
<21> and when i try to ping 192.168.1.1 it tells me Destination Host Unreachable
<20> what does route -n say?
<20> actually, what does ifconfig eth0 say? Use pastebin or rafb if needed
<21> heh (i can't ssh into my linux comp so... i really can't pastebin or anything OTHER than type it manually here)
<20> Zathman, ah. That ****s, didnt realize that
<21> eth0 - Link encap:UNSPEC HWAddr 00-****** inet-addr: 192.168.1.110 Bcast 192.168.1.255 Mask 255.255.255.0 ..
<20> ah. Link encap:UNSPEC <-- that should be Ethernet. hmm...
<14> eth0 is probably down ?
<20> this use a kernel module?
<21> UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 / _ 0 _ 0 _ 0 _ 0 _ 0 / TX Packets: 278 _ 0 _ 0 _ 0 _ 0 / ~
<20> does the 3rd line say UP? (might be 4th if you have ipv6)
<21> when running ifconfig -a eth1 is posted as link encap:ETHERNET; shouldn't eth0 also list as ETHERNET rather than UNSPEC?
<21> yeah
<20> Zathman, do you have other network devices on the system?
<21> other than my motherboard-built-in intel networking device no; lsmod posts eth1394 is running
<17> how far along the installation process can i be a user? meaning... make,make install,etc...as user? can i do the whole process as user?
<20> Zathman, intel should be e100. eth1394 <- thats firewire
<22> tyler, usually make install requires root , but if u change the install destination directories to be something which is writeable by the user u can do the complete process as that user
<20> theory: wonder if you fw is becoming eth0. Is eth1 configured w/ IP?
<20> s/fw/firewire/ let me clarify
<23> How would I delete all instances or occurances of a certain character [globally, for entire file]?
<22> Zathman, the driver for yout Intel NIC is compiled as a module or into the kernel ?
<22> usr13, man tr
<23> Let's say I wante to delete all question marks "?"
<23> phax, tnx
<20> Zathman, let me clarify. If your nic is 10/100 then it uses the e100 module.
<21> my bad e100 is also listed in lsmod; i used genkernel way back when, therefore i'd ***ume it'd be modulized
<22> Zathman, what all interfaces are listed in iifconfig -a
<22> ifconfig*
<21> eth0 eth1 lo sit0
<22> what are the IPs ***ociated with eth0 and eth1 respectively (if any)
<20> Zathman, just for fun, try ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.111 netmask 255.255.255.0 and then try to ping router
<20> ***uming that nothing else on your net is .1.111 of course
<21> eth0 [ia 192.168.1.110 bcast 192.168.1.255 mask 255.255.255.0] eth1 [no addresses spec]
