<0> i'm experienced with Mandrake, Debian, and, to a certain extent slackware...although i don't like mandake, and slackware's a little too difficult for me atm
<1> Try an older debian or redhat release, I guess... a P60/16MB feels like a phenominally tight restriction these days...
<2> is there a reason why i never dip into swap, tho hard memory is nearly completely full
<3> cuz swap isn't on? ;)
<2> its on
<2> Mem: 2069008 2016856 52152 0 55632 1165016
<4> _sho_: that's the way the kernel works
<2> Swap: 1288160 0 1288160
<5> yeah.. hard memory isn't full
<1> _sho_: How long's the machine been up/
<2> 39 days
<5> it's filled with cache and buffers, but that's disposable memory
<3> _sho_: what's the +/- buffers line...
<6> hi guys
<2> -/+ buffers/cache: 831876 1237132
<1> Perhaps you 'swapoff; swapon'd recently? :P
<3> yeah, so 1.2gb is actually "free"
<3> meaning, in use as cache, but disposable as soon as something needs more ram
<6> OOT, just sharing info, I wrote about "top" at http://www.linuxforums.org/misc/using_top_more_efficiently_5.html
<6> feel free to give comments or critics about it
<2> mm, yeah
<1> Perhaps his kernel can't handle more than 4GBs, or something ?
<2> im getting major issues thanks to mysql
<2> 4:08pm up 39 days, 2:11, 1 user, load average: 77.46, 38.72, 23.88
<2> box is responsive
<3> haha, nice
<2> but load is out of control
<3> you got a bunch of zombied processes? is the box still responsive?
<1> Is that load due to use processes, or due to the kernel thread(s) that write to disk?
<2> o, its very responsive
<1> *user
<0> is there anything i can install without removable media, or from foloppy over ftp (with an isa 3com etherlinkIII network card) that'll run nicely with flux(/black/hacked)box?
<0> on a p60 with 32mb ram
<3> _sho_: check ps or top and see what kind of crap is running that's ausing such a load...
<3> The-Saint: you could make it a thin client... run XDM on a faster box, and have X on the p60 connect to it, and just display the apps
<2> amrit|wrk: its all mysql :p
<3> _sho_: oh, heh
<0> not an option...not got a faster box, except this one (my linuxphobic gf's machine)
<3> oh
<3> The-Saint: how much hd space?
<2> mysql 27684 29.8 2.2 135920 47132 ? R 16:12 0:03 /usr/local/mysql-4.0.22/libexec/mysqld --basedir=/usr/local/mysql --datadir=/usr/local/mysql/data --user=mysql --pid-file=/usr/local/mysql/data/host6.dbrainshost.com.pid --skip-locking --socket=/tmp/mysql.sock
<0> uhm...1.2gb-ish
<3> there's a 3rd party installer for slackware, based on ftping the files over...
<3> http://slackftp.sourceforge.net/
<0> thanks,m i'll give it a shot
<3> ok
<7> Can anyone help me with this init stuff? Whenever I go into init 5, the sound tries to load, but then stops, due to some bug in ALSA. If anyone's curious, I'm using Ark Linux with their latest version.
<0> try up/downgrading ALSA
<7> Okay.
<0> amrit: that only seems to support upto slack 9.1 :s
<3> The-Saint: doh
<3> The-Saint: pull the hd out of the P60, put it in the current box, boot an install cd, and go at it. when done, switch the hd back.
<0> tried that...it wouldn't boot henm i put it back, because it was expecting this box's hardware
<0> when*
<8> I am trying to publish a https server through an ISA server. The sysadmin is helpful but I need to know how the certificate bit works?
<8> ertain: you can try alsamixer and then alsctl store
<9> what is the line you put in grubs menu.lst to make the startup text smaller /vesafs ?
<0> so can anyone point me in the direction of a distro for my turdbox?
<10> i have /usr/java/jre1.5.0_06/bin in my $PATH and i would like to remove it. how do i do that?
<11> check if the path is set in /etc/profile
<11> if not then, check if the path is set in your profile
<10> i dont see it in /etc/profile
<10> in my .bash_profile? no
<11> do you see it in your profile? .bash_profile
<10> nothing in there
<11> copy the path except the /usr/java/..... portion and say: export PATH="paste the path here"
<11> ***uming you are using bash
<10> what do i pit in ""
<10> the java path correct?
<11> your current PATH
<11> without java path
<10> home dir?
<11> pls wait, I will give you an example
<10> k
<11> visit this link: http://pastebin.com/629749
<11> there are better ways to do this
<11> of which I am not aware
<11> :-)
<10> ok so i just take my path and put it in "" exluding the java stuff?
<11> yes
<11> and if you logout -and login again to find that the JAVA path is back
<11> and cant find the file that has the JAVA PATH
<11> then simply add these lines in .bash_profile
<11> so that the PATH is reset everytime you login
<10> hold
<10> brb
<10> if i log out and log back in, the java path is still there
<10> if i export now without logging out, its fine
<11> why do you want to remove this PATH?
<11> I mean JAVA path?
<10> bc its causing conflicts
<11> ok
<11> just a sec, i will give you another example
<11> which you can use to enter the lines in .bash_profile
<10> see i set the java path then i uninstalled jre1.5.0_06..thats what happened
<11> where did you set the java path?
<10> i did export J2RE_HOME
<10> etc
<10> i did this export J2RE_HOME=/usr/java/jre1.5.0_06
<10> export PATH=$J2RE_HOME/bin:$PATH
<11> ok
<11> I think this is my limitation: http://pastebin.com/629781
<11> too
<10> hmmm
<11> you can temporarily overcome this problem and search why your java path gets set every time you login
<10> yea....im looking
<12> does nfs require a specific port? I can't seem to find anything in the documentation or man pages on ***igning a port to a NFS conneciton
<13> port 2049
<13> tcp and udp
<14> anybody heard of this wink software?
<15> does anyone have experience getting pyPgSQL working on suse?
<16> Punkwork: no but whats the error ya get
<15> well there is no error. theres no package for it. debian has a package called python-pgsql
<15> i tried their RH9 package but it fails out complainging about missing a python2.2 file... which just doesnt work
<15> as this is python 2.4
<17> tar --exclude /home/foo -c -v -O /home -f - <-- this still includes /home/foo. why?
<15> inv_arp[work] : any ideas?
<16> Punkwork: use source then..
<15> compile from source would mean ill need to compile python and postgres. not something i want to do
<16> Punkwork: no.. the package will just use the libs from the installed packages...
<15> yah no. their src.rpm goes haywire complaining about user "jafo"
<15> which seemed to me like somebody screwed up their rpm building
<16> no .tar.gz?
<15> meh. i will try it.
<17> does tar's '--exclude' work recursively (on directories and their contents)?
<17> because in my example, /home/foo/bar exists and so on
<17> is it a matter of what position i put '--exclude' on the tar command line?
<18> hi
<18> "dhclient eth0" ***igns me an ip. how can i stop it?
<13> obscuresoul, when you give yourself a static IP in /etc/network/interfaces e.g.
<13> or how did you mean?
<17> apparently, tar 1.13's exclude doesn't work right but 1.13.25's does. i copied a 1.13.25 binary over and it works.
<16> obscuresoul: of course it gives you an ip... thats like saying "ls" lists files/dirs, how do i stop it
<19> hi everyone
<19> I would like to know how to have grep match either xxx or yyy on a line. Is there a way?
<16> grep -E "(xxx|yyy)"
<19> inv_Arp, you rock
<20> is there a tool to record shoutcast?
<21> see if streamripper does what you need.
<22> how do u change the resolution of the console?
<23> cricket : /etc/lilo.conf and run /sbin/lilo afterwards.. and you are playing with the bootloader
<23> so dont break it
<24> is it possible to ssh tunnel the lpd port?
<25> ugarit : sure. but why would you want to do that?
<24> there is a printer on one side of a firewall which needs to be accessed by the other side and only port 22 is permitted to be open
<25> i see. well, you can certainly use ssh -L to create a tunnel
<23> whats the commands to create a ipv6 tunnel that will transparently encrypt all traffic between two hosts?
<24> ananke: thanks
<26> hello
<26> i have in kernel the direct rendering manager(xfree) with * and the i810 with M, i dont have the direct rendering active
<26> i need to change the i810 for *?
