<10> Hello?
<8> hiyos
<10> i need some help
<8> im using ubuntu (debian..kernel 2.6.xxx i forget exact numbers). and im setting up a server for a windows based lan (w/ an ubuntu box as the fserver)
<8> <8> i can connect via putty, and ssh, but how do i configure the windows domain controllers (is that what i need to fix?) in order to have windows recognize it as a network drive
<8> i wasin here last night and yamabushi helpedtroubleshoot the entire kernel that was fubar'ing, i got a command line (no gui) finally, so im doing everyrhing through that
<11> i am looking to buy an affordable laptop that will run linux without any major glitches. is the dell inspiron 6000 a good choice?
<8> dude, your gettin' a dell! (sry, obligatory)
<11> it does look that way ... :\
<8> ive no clue the difference between hardwares and how linux runs on them, personally
<11> amphi: what have you heard good things about?
<12> This may be a little over the top for this channel, but does any one have any experience with building the network version of loader from RH anaconda package?
<13> trooper00: thinkpads
<8> anyone that can entertain my troubles setting up samba to network linux and windows?
<11> hrm. i don't have long to decide. parents are planning on buying an inspiron 6000 in a few hours. 400 rebate or something. i have an extremely low budget. lucky to get anything at all :(
<14> When I try to run vlc with sudo ('sudo vlc') I get this error:
<14> wait...gold on a ***c
<14> sec*
<14> Error: Unable to initialze gtk, is DISPLAY set properly?
<14> And, I don't know what DISPLAY should be set to, so I don't really know how to fix it.
<15> Anyone know of a way to make ncftp quit automatically when the given p***word is bad, instead of going to an ncftp> prompt?
<16> sekhmet, ftp does the same thing
<14> Should I set DISPLAY to the path where gtk lies?
<15> yanger: Well, if the p***word *does* work I'd like to be at an ncftp prompt though
<17> what could be wrong if i make a bootable linux cd, with an initrd, and it mounts the initrd, afterwards the mounted initrd looks correct, but the linuxrc never gets executed?
<6> ok I am confused, sometimes I will do rsync -vrlptD /root/dir /otherroot/ and it will put the file in /otherroot/dir othertimes it just puts the files in /otheroot without creating the dir off of /otheroot, why is that?
<18> xp_ : because you don't remember.
<18> and you're confused. for rsync /dir/ is not equal to /dir
<6> well it creates a dir sometimes and other times it doesn't why is that?
<6> because of the / at the end?
<18> yes
<6> ok cool!
<19> heya peoples
<19> does anybody know how to get a wireless router working as an access point?

<22> can someone tell me how do i start a terminal as SU?
<6> sudo xterm
<22> what is that
<14> Does anyone know what I could do to fix my problem
<6> RastaVybz what do you want to do?
<22> im following instructions to install madwifi drivers for my wg311t and it says: "Then go into terminal as SU type ndiswrapper -l ..."
<6> type su -
<6> then enter the root p***word
<6> you will then be in a root terminal
<22> oooooo
<22> :) thanx
<14> When I try to run vlc with sudo ('sudo vlc') I get this error:
<14> Error: Unable to initialze gtk, is DISPLAY set properly?
<23> try: sudo "export DISPLAY=:0; vlc"
<23> why are you trying to run vlc as root, anyway?
<14> kinda a long story :o
<14> hrm. That doesn't work.
<14> Does the same thing
<23> how about: sudo "export DISPLAY=$DISPLAY; xeyes"
<14> It says that export cannot be found
<23> right
<23> Let's just try doing: su -
<14> It doesn't work when I'm su'd either
<23> did you type in the export display line?
<14> Yes...
<23> ...
<23> ok, let's try this from the top
<23> (1) can you run xeyes as yourself from an x-term ?
<14> okay
<14> yes, I can run vlc fine too, but i want to run it as root (or just use sudo to run it)
<14> But if i use sudo, or run it as root, it gives me that error
<23> (2) as yourself, from the x-term: echo $DISPLAY
<14> it returns :0.0
<23> (3) as yourself, from the x-term: xhost localhost
<14> okay. did that
<23> (4) su -
<23> export DISPLAY=:0
<23> xeyes
<23> If that don't work, then we ain't going anywhere :P
<14> Got it, thanks, it gave me another error and so I ran xhost + and that worked
<23> hmmm
<14> Thanks for the help, bye
<24> how can I stop whatever is using /dev/dsp?
<23> Yawgmoth7: Erm, ok -- we could make it a little more secure though... damn, he's gone :P
<23> riddlebox: man fuser ?
<25> I can't seem to make oidentd work anymore.
<26> Hello everyone.
<27> aahh whats the command to stop a process (in this case pinging!)
<26> You could try "ctrl+c" in a terminal.
<28> Need to ad ATM0 to my modem AT string, but have no idea where to do that. I don't use a PPP frontend
<9> ATM0?
<9> you trying to setup an ATM box?
<28> No, just trying to turn off my modem speaker
<29> ATM0 should set the volume to 0
<29> thats not 'quite' the same as turning the speaker off. I think theres a seperate command for that.
<29> the good old says of AT commands.
<29> old days..
<30> anyone know how to do wordwrap in emacs?
<28> Dr_Willis: M0 L0 I think
<31> M0 : The speaker is always off.

<31> yw
<32> getting an openbasedir error trying to set up name based vhosts. http://pastebin.com/576105 ideas?
<27> in setting up the interfaces file, my network and gateway ip...what are they... -_-...i know one is my actual router (192.168.1.1) but i dont know the other
<33> mang3lo: if your router does dhcp that might be easier
<31> mang3lo: ping -b <network>
<33> I'm ***uming he hasn't set anything up yet if he doesn't have an interfaces file set up :)
<31> lol. good point
<33> mang3lo: auto eth0
<33> iface eth0 inet dhcp
