<0> hey Coma
<1> Seran: That'll surely get rid of whatever bootloader's stuck in the mbr
<0> and makes some coffee
<2> type: "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev hda bs=446 count=1"
<2> ?
<1> um, no
<2> damn us - eu keyboard issue.
<3> Coma: Why only 446 bytes?
<1> waznz: Else he'll also erase his partition table
<2> thats no problem I'll just make a new one
<4> ok ****it.. I reinstall it! I got no idea what p***word I set for it.
<1> Then bs=512 would do too, but that's besides the point
<3> err ... forehead even
<2> ok wwhat is the entire line I need to type?
<1> yoz: Aren't there plenty of those p***word recovery programs about for windows?
<1> Seran: I already showed you
<0> yoz: whats the issue?
<0> yoz: what did you forget & what did you b0rk? :P
<4> Jostein: win2k3 in vmware.. forgot my p***word and I really need to check some .aspx files. at least a website layout.
<0> yoz: erd-commander ?
<0> works like charms.
<4> Jostein: lemme see ;)
<0> doesn't knoppix do the job?
<4> Jostein: you mean with those .aspx files?
<4> Jostein: the vmware runs on a winxp
<4> Jostein: unfortunately.
<2> omg that worked!!
<2> Coma have my babies.
<2> I <3 you
<0> yoz: well. that shouldnt be an issue should it?
<0> yoz: vmware doesnt care what OS it runs does it?
<2> :) cheers mate. I really appresiate that
<0> yoz: anyway... if all you need are the .aspx files, knoppix/erd-commander/Bart's MiniPE booted on the VM should be more than sufficient
<2> internet ftw.
<0> yoz: if you want to reset thae p***word run "locksmith" from Barts MiniPE or Erd-commander
<0> its really dead simple with the right tools
<1> And now... watch me dissapear!
<4> Jostein: ok thanks for that.. I'll check on it.
<0> np
<5> heh Coma, smokes after being violated :)
<2> hemm..
<0> lol
<3> violation?
<2> I'm sure he liked it.
<3> Oh ... no g0ats involved
<2> strange. the windows cd isn't a boot cd.
<0> win98?
<0> never was
<0> only WinNT & WinNT based MS-OSes have been bootable iirc
<2> yeah but I got a compaq restore cd to
<0> oh. those are pure evil anyway
<2> for some strange reason that just goes blank.
<0> I like how "reinstall OS" actually mean "wipe all partitions and all data and rewrite image"
<2> :/ all this trouble just to install the eve clien on my lap
<2> well. I don't mind that anyway. was only crap on the hardrive anyway
<0> well. for a clued person, its no problem
<0> for mom & dad clueless, it might NOT be though
<2> bloody.. there it goes just blank again.
<0> and they dont provide a CD withthe actual OS or software. because that'd be wrong. or something
<2> yeah. wtf is up whit that?
<2> you get no cd whit it anymore`
<2> ?
<0> oh crap
<1> They're still pestering you?
<0> I just checked the mail
<0> And read -exactly- what they have planned. gah
<0> its pretty obvious some people have NO clue what kind of work (and amount) they are delegating
<6> Jostein: What do they want now?
<7> does anyone in here know anything about autoconf/automake?
<1> His head on a plate!
<0> basicly, they've promisted a client that Ill spend a full day analyzing every aspect of their SQL Server based systems
<0> including client apps and dataaccess in the client apps
<1> anarkakari: Other than those being the possible two worst programs to work with? ;)
<0> that sounds like... real fun, yeah? :(
<1> Jostein: And they want it done yesterday
<0> actually, they want it done friday
<7> Coma: yeah.. I'm am trying to get this function to work, but KDevelop set up autoconf somehow to define -ansi.. and -ansi removes access to a function this code depends on
<1> You better stop being ill then :P
<0> Ive managed to push it that far, but still. this is nonsense. I have tons of other stuff to do
<7> I need to keep autoconf from setting -ansi
<7> or alternative define__USE_POSIX199309 anyway
<7> alternatively that is
<7> gar.. autoconf might not be so horrible if there were better documentation
<0> isnt autconf, some slackware stuff?
<0> s/,//
<7> no, autoconf is gnu stuff
<1> Jostein: Uh, no
<7> used by almost every program on your linux box to configure it's build process
<7> and its a terrible pain in my ***
<0> oh right. I was thinking abotu pkg_conf or something
<7> anyone in here in #gnu and want to invite me so I can ask those guys?
<8> hi *
<9> I have an old laptop running on 96MB RAm with 233MHZ MMx. no X, console only. I try to compile Mplayer and it takes a very long time to finish.. not done yet. Is there any faster compiler I could use or something? without upgrading the hardware (can't unless I buy a new laptop - which is about time.. I know)? via 'make' gcc ver 3.x (the one that comes with my store bought slackware 10.2)
<7> I doubt there is a faster compiler.
<6> Slicsi: Just wait a long time.
<7> But you might look into distcc
<7> you can use it to do spread the compilation between multiple systems
<7> that's what I use to build software for my laptop
<1> Slicsi: Compile on a faster box and copy it over
<10> Cool
<11> Slicsi all you can do is to ask some of your friends to prepare a build for you. like pre-builded software...
<1> Or indeed, use a distro that provides binaries for just about everything you'd ever need
<7> my 5+ Ghz desktop does most of the work for my 700 Mhz laptop :)
<7> its quick
<12> Slicsi: look into pre-build packages like redhat/fedora debian etc
<7> Doesn't slak provide mplayer packages?
<12> i have a 266MHz server here with 512mb of ram and i installed gentoo on it, just takes time
<7> check their FTP
<7> and with gentoo especially, distcc is the way to go
<1> The only think lackware provides are perpetual headaches
<7> there is no distro that provides binaries for all you need... all you get with redhat and the like is dependency hell
<12> anarkakari: agreed, i never really got into it tho, i had the system installed and runnign by the tim ei got work bout distcc
<1> anarkakari: debian comes reasonably close
<12> work = word
<7> yeah debian is best among them
<12> they have apt for redhat
<12> made it easy for me back in the day
<7> but you still will have problems with cool new/rare stuff
<12> same as any distro will
<7> ehh.. gentoo is about as good as it gets in that regard
<7> and its very very easy to make an ebuild
<7> but yeah
<12> yeah i havent looked back once i went to gentoo
<13> wtf... ldconfig reports the library as beeing there... but gcc -ljustaregularlib can't find it...
<7> -L/directory
<7> autoconf is driving me to drink
<1> Don't drink and drive :P
<7> heh..
<7> what about drinking and hacking build systems?
<12> Coma: whats the fun then? =P
<7> its not working so well, but then it wasn't before the drinking either
<1> Oh, no harm in that, other than waking up the next day and wondering wtf you've done
<7> heh
<7> ehh this isn't bad.. When I was younger I used to get really high and code.. Hard to make sense of it the next day, I'll tell ya
<1> Sounds all way too familiar
<12> when i was yonger i got really high and ran around half naked
