<0> mount maybe..
<1> Ok I have the loop going but how can I separate or remove the .rar from the filename?
<2> Fun day, when my roommate breaks the faucet because he's angry he didn't get laid.
<3> lol
<4> hi what is blacklist?
<4> i want to blacklist rivafb
<5> Renderer : is rivafb even loaded? lsmod | grep rivafb
<5> and most likely you're talking about hotplug blacklisting. that would be /etc/hotplug/blacklist
<4> rivafb 35088 0 vgastate 6144 1 rivafb
<4> i really dont know what blacklisting is
<4> or what i'm doing and why
<4> all i know is i want to run an isntaller for nvidia drivers
<5> so you woke up one day and decided to 'blacklist' some random something?
<4> but it stops halfway
<4> with error cannot load nvidia.ko
<5> did you read carefully what it said?
<4> ananke; i'm a total newbie and people at #zenwalk tell me i have to blacklist rivafb apparently
<6> Renderer, check your dmesg as well
<4> i googled up both rivafb and blacklist
<6> rivafb shouldn't automatically load though...
<4> at the end it says try unloading rivasb
<4> , nvidiafb
<4> or rivatv kernel module
<4> that's what dmesg says, yanger
<4> (and/or reconfigure your kernel without rivafb/nvidiafb NVRM: support), then try loading the NVIDIA kernel module again.
<4> No NVIDIA graphics adapter probed!
<6> what video card do you have?
<4> yanger; it's a geforce2go
<6> oh.. laptops..
<6> as the other peeps said, try compiling ur kernel disabling rivafb
<4> sorry to ask, but how do i do that?
<6> if all else fails, try slackware, zenwalk seems to be a branch version of slackware
<7> zenwalk is a distro based on slackware
<4> T_T; i'm trying my best here...
<6> something like that :)
<7> yanger: it's not a version of slackware
<6> not a version
<4> i chose zenwalk cuz it seemed good
<4> uses xfce, and is lowprofile which is what i want for my laptop
<6> but their theory of keeping it 400mb seems odd ;\
<4> true
<4> they dont include the kernelsource in the installation
<4> which i believe is dumb
<6> well, if ur going to recompile your kernel, you'll need the kenelsource
<6> kernel
<4> ok ok, im gonna google how to compile kernel
<4> but i need to know how to do that without riva
<4> that's the trick
<6> simple :) just make sure u read
<4> i've never compiled a kernel before
<4> -.-;
<6> google will find u lots of things on kernel compiling
<8> will find u lots of things on kernel compiling: http://www.secguru.com/hardik/linux_kernel_compilation
<6> blah heh
<6> forgot google's here too ;)
<4> btw, is it the same if i look into a website thaht explains for freebsd?
<6> freebsd does not use linux kernel
<9> with tar --multi-volume is there any way to get it to launch a command when it prompts you for a new tape (ie issuing a mtx -f /dev/tapechanger next ?
<6> google linux kernel compile howto
<8> [linux] kernel compile howto: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Kernel-HOWTO.html
<6> Renderer, there u go
<10> how do you ls the whole pathname of files?
<7> jhammel: man ls will know, if it's possible
<10> StevenR: its certainly not in man ls
<7> jhammel: then it probably isn't possible without a small script, you could do it with a combination of pwd and ls maybe
<10> StevenR: `pwd`/`ls $FILE` works for simple things
<10> but...if I do ls ~/blah from /tmp/, it will say /tmp/blah instead of /home/jhammel/blah
<7> jhammel: then you're going to need something more complex to set the right path
<10> getting more clever, i can do ls -d ${FILE%%/*}, but still, ../file doesn't work
<10> StevenR: yeah...something...the question is what...
<10> given a directory, is there any way to print its whole name?
<11> /part
<12> Has anyone ever tried Linux From Scratch?
<13> anyone know if its possible to search in google for "^M" somehow ?
<12> etker: try control + M
<12> or (rare to find though) meta + m
<13> hm, ok .. you mean, using the string "control + M" ?
<14> is there any way to turn down the link speed of your ethernet card? for example turn it down to 10 instead of 100
<12> etker: yes
<13> MegaByte: didnt work out too well, got a lot of hits with the word "control" in them
<13> oops
<12> etker: "control + m"
<13> my bad, found some relevant hits now
<15> hedpe: I guess if the driver module has an option for it
<12> duh, silly
<12> :)
<12> Has anyone ever tested LFS?
<12> Linux from Scratch
<15> nope
<13> the reason i asked is that on one of my machines (NB: just one of my machines), a file that i wget from pastebin, gets ctrl-m or ^M at the end of each line. This makes bash spit at it, i think
<12> etker: ^(a key) mostly stands for control + key :)
<13> i cant udnerstand why a webserver like pastebin would leave an output like that .... and its onluy visible in nano. But then again, on my other machine, and at my friends machine, they dont appear (in nano)
<13> MegaByte: yes, control + M
<16> does anyone here have experience with getting a wacom tablet working under linux?
<9> anyone know how i can graph individual process usages (ie how much cpu samba is using over a time period etc)
<17> MrProper__: if you have a way to get the process's into a file the graphing is easy with gnuplot
<10> is there an emacs command to hilight the current line?
<6> yyc747 compile it into the kernel
<15> how do I get fusesmb to change owner/permissions on the "mount point"?
<18> Has anyone ever setup VMware? I have a probably easily answered question.
<6> Yawgmoth7, ask
<18> okay
<18> It's a kinda dumb question. :\ Well...I emerged it (I'm on gentoo) and I go to run vmware-config.pl and that's fine..then i have to go through the licence message or whatever
<18> (The terms of agreement)
<18> And then it says accept the continue or whatever...
<18> welll...when I get the to bottom there is no where to accept, and I have to exit the vmware-config script.
<18> So, I don't know what to do >:(
<19> maybe it's displaying the licence in a pager, so you have to quit that first
<6> hmm
<18> okay...soo, I just ran it...it's displaying the agreement now
<6> if i remembered, that is a window with a textbox (scrolling) and you have to manually scroll to the bottom to make the agreement appear
<18> I am at the bottem...and no agreement is here :\
<6> make the window bigger?
<6> what version vmware?
<6> shouldn't happen with 5.5
<18> umm, let me see, I just emerged it so.
<6> check the vmware forums
<18> Yeah, it's version 5.5.1
<18> Okay, I will.
<18> :|
<6> what distro u using?
<18> Gentoo
<6> had no issues with slackware 10.2 / xorg / kde
<6> what enviorment? kde/gnome?
<18> fluxbox ;)
<6> blah :P
<18> fluxbox is the best..
<18> kde > gnome > blackbox > fluxbox
<18> Actually
<18> Enlightenment is cool too
<6> it is very nice :) but vmware wasn't tested on that desktop enviorment that frequently
<18> Well, this isn't really a display problem I don't think?
<18> Since it isn't even really displaying yet :\
<18> Just the dumb end user license agreement
<6> you could try <tab><enter>
<6> or a few more <tabs>
<6> heh
<18> w00t, I think I just founda thread about it
<18> I pushed every key I could
<18> :P
<18> nice
<18> I figured it out
<18> :)
<20> does anyone know of a web site where the checksum for common binaries for distributions can be looked up?
<19> saber_: that would be in the packages or their metadata files
<20> hmm
<20> it is kind of inconvenient to be doing that for more than a handlful of files
<21> I've been using linux for a long time now, and i like it alot. But i want to try more systems, can someone recommend a UNIX system free of charge that i can try?
<7> krinss: open/free/net bsd
<7> also opensolaris
<21> ah, ok. And others like AIX, HPUX, IRIX? need to pay for that? I've only heard the names, know nothing about them
