<0> GNU
<0> If your 'which' doesn't have --version, then it isn't mine.
<1> 'which --version' doesn't even work for me
<2> I never thought to use whereis, it's not a command used in Sol 8 which is what I'm more used to working on
<2> Lemme try it
<1> my which has no version :P
<2> That's weird... the man page for which lists --version (or -v) but it doesn't actually work when I use it
<2> I should be able to do 'which -v firefox' right?
<2> Oh and 'whereis' works great and I wish I'd known about it in the beginning, lol
<2> It showed me all of the install directories for the different versions of firefox
<0> GNU which works great too. But apparently you aren't using it.
<2> Wait a sec... this stupid "Java tester" page over at http://java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml <---tells me my version of Java is old... then tells me the latest version is the version I'm using (1.5.0_06)
<2> Weird.
<2> Oh well, don't care, it works, heh
<2> Yeah, I guess not. :( Would've saved me a lot of time and trouble.
<2> Until now I've just been switching to my Win2K laptop whenever I had to do something Java related.
<2> It was just now/today that I decided to put my mind to work to figure out why it wasn't working on my Linux system.
<2> Oooo, I wonder if I can get the Adobe plugin installed too now...
<3> You mean our minds to work.... :P
<2> LOL, well, yes, you guys helped lots, thank you
<2> I just meant that I finally decided I'd work on trying to get it fixed, by asking you guys, lol
<3> Most plugings are easy to use.....as long as you add the plugin to the right directory :)
<2> Yup, that helps, heh.
<1> how does one go about accessing a windows share from linux?
<1> anyone?
<4> D0C: samba ?
<1> is there a gui samba client?
<5> standard in FC5
<1> im running suse
<4> D0C: you cand mount the windows partition or share folder from win. in linux with smbmount or mount -t smbfs
<2> <---what neworder said
<2> Let me check my fstab, I've got a mounted windows share
<4> CeruleanD: ?
<2> Er, I meant mtab
<2> I think, I always get them confused, heh
<4> smbmount //domain/sharedfolder /local/mount/point -o ip=192.168.x.win IP
<4> like that
<2> Um, I *had* a mounted Windows share...
<4> heh
<2> heh
<2> 'Found nothing'
<2> heh, I was looking through my rc.d directories to see if maybe I'd created a startup file to mount that Windows file share and I found this: S23cupsrenice <----Cups are nice... hmmm...
<2> (yes, I know what it really is, but it just sounds funny when taken literally)
<4> windows is lame, and ntfs/fat partitions may cause brain damage :-)
<2> hehe, I can't argue that
<6> fat will cause brain damage. ntfs is a pretty damned robust filesystem.
<6> robust(ed) that is.
<7> How long should I wait on a FC2 CD to start /sbin/loader
<8> Why would you even install FC2?
<7> it's just sitting there reading the CD.
<8> SJr_: That'll give you time to download FC5
<7> its the only thing I have handy
<6> SJr_, so go get FC5.
<6> or better.. centos :)
<2> Ouch, ew
<7> lol
<8> Or better yet, Debian or Ubuntu
<2> Or SuSE even, better than FC at lesat
<2> lesat
<7> yeah yeah, its not my call :P
<2> least $^$%
<2> Then kill whoever is making you install FC2... they're obviously stinking up our gene pool
<7> company machine, my choices were RedHat or Fedora Core.
<2> So get FC5
<7> FC2 are the only CD's I could find handy
<2> Quit your job and go work for a company that lets you have a CD-RW device in your desktop so you can burn FC5 CD's.
<7> whoa
<2> Seriously, anything prior to FC4 is insanely unstable.
<7> I only need disk 1 right?
<2> I tried FC3 for a short time and had too many issues.
<2> But I've heard FC4 and 5 became more stable
<2> Well "insanely" might be a bit dramatic. :)
<7> uh there we go
<7> can I upgrade FC2 to FC5 once its installed?
<2> I don't see why not
<7> huzzah
<8> Completely pointless
<7> wow this cd drive ****s
<2> *shrug* His hands are tied.
<6> SJr_, you have to step one distro at a time. 2-3-4-5
<7> ugh
<6> if you have a fast network connection, expect it to take a day or so, and it's apparently best to use apt-get and not yum
<7> hmmm
<6> i read a little note on updating from fc1-5
<6> yum breaks EVERYTHING from 2-3 <almost literally>
<2> har, ouch
<2> SuSE uses YaST, is it possible to convert it to apt-get?
<2> Or even should I?
<9> anyone know what the horizontal red line in xchat is for?
<2> That's the Thin Red Line, don't cross it!
<10> i need to increase the resolution of a command line only linux environment
<10> how would i do such a thing
<11> linlin : read up on framebuffers or read your distro documentation
<10> ok
<7> Sorry I'm back which cd's do I need to install FC5
<12> Apple Mac Parody Ads: http://tv.truenuff.com/mac/security_wmv.php
<2> Special request: http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/linux.html <--- can someone go here and tell me which plugin I need to view .wmv's?
<2> Will the QuickTime plugin do it? Or the RealPlayer?
<13> no.
<13> which should be obvious.
<13> get the mplayer plugin
<8> CeruleanD: mplayer, vlc, gstreamer, etc
<2> Ah ok, thank you
<2> I figured mplayer was just a music player, mp3/wav
<13> you're... kidding
<13> how frigging long have you been running linux son
<8> It stands for m(ovie)player
<8> Or media rather
<8> damn
<2> Yeah, gotcha now
<2> Oh I'm dumb. Real dumb. Seriously, I'd be thrilled to have Forrest Gump's IQ
<8> To each their own
<2> Makes sense *now*, just wasn't thinking straight. :(
<14> bye!
<15> is there any tutorial on how to manage php scripts in linux?
<16> how to manage them?
<6> danq, how to tell them to do their jobs and such.
<16> haha
<16> Sweep, mop, etc etc.
<2> heh
<6> you, globals.php.. mop that floor or you're fired.
<2> hehehe
<7> Hmmmm Xen vs. UML anyone know where I can see how they compare
<13> er
<13> they're really nothing alike.
<13> uml is a glorified chroot
<13> as for a site to actually HELP you... dunno.
<17> how do i forward my damn port 80 to an internal ip
<18> flush__, are you using iptables?
<18> with NAT and all that good junk
<17> affirmative
<17> i found some rules on forums and stuff but darn, it aint working
<18> Ok
<18> give me one sec
<17> alright
<18> IPTABLES -A PREROUTING -t nat -p TCP -d IPHERE --dport PORTHERE -j DNAT --to-destination LOCALIP:PORT
<18> IPTABLES -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth1 -p TCP -d IPHERE --dport PORTHERE -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
<18> That's what I use
<17> ok gonna smoke and i try it back again
<17> brb
<18> OK
<19> anyone know how I can create a tar backup of my entire file system, output a filelist.txt and finally split the files into 4gb increments? so far I have: /bin/tar --create --verbose --preserve --ignore-failed-read --file=/ > /media/NO_NAME/_archives/filelist.txt
<19> i've read that piping to split would work for the increments...but since i am already using > i am not sure if ordering
<19> nevermind, this works: find /home/ -depth -type f -print > filelist.txt
<18> Gevaudan82, curiousity, why do you want to do that?
<18> you could also do cat /home/ > filelist.txt
<19> i have an external drive shared between my windows laptop and my linux server...it's connected to the server...thus it's formatted in fat32 with 4gb limit...that's the reason i need to split the file...i want to print a file list so i can tell what files were backed up right away
<19> i bet cat is faster...lemme try
