<0> is it possible to hack into someone else's dsl line and use their speed ? I have been experiencing slow downs. how could someone do that ?
<1> since a dsl line is a dedicated link between the dslam and your dsl modem - no
<2> hack into your dsl no, if your using wireless then possibly use your network
<0> no it is wired
<2> then its just your isp :)
<0> what is the best speed increasing software for dsl ?
<1> a word processor where you can write an order for a speed upgrade and something to send it to your isp :p
<0> ok, thanks
<3> :)
<2> software to increase your surfing speed is mostly crap and con job unless its something you get from your isp that compresses information from your isp to you
<2> what kind of download speed are you getting?
<4> Best DVD Player for Linux?
<5> daium. provider disconnect. what did he say on the joke with the word processor? :)
<2> tojoe i think these kids ares spoiled with there 500-1.5mbps download speeds, complaining its slow, they dont know what slow is :)
<5> or they me***ure the speed of their pipe with the speed of a download (e.g. bittorrent)
<6> what's with the "best $app" questions? You try one, if it suits your needs you continue to use it, while keeping an eye open of other things.
<4> Oh, sorry
<7> except setting the nic and the routing table do i need anything else to make the net to work ?
<4> I forgot that some applications are just found by the general public to not be as good as others.
<2> padre and having a connection :)
<7> what do you mean red?
<6> isn't irc part of the general public?
<2> well you gotta have an internet connection :)
<4> yes, it sure is!
<5> madbovine, only a few selected by the irc lord are here :p
<4> omg, it's an OREO cake!
<5> what? gimme!
<4> k, DCC?
<4> :P
<5> :p
<7> to set nameservers you edit the resolv.conf or there is other way ?
<2> Padre nope that all you gotta do
<7> i don't get it i set all that but i still ain't got any responce from my gw :/
<8> What do nameservers have to do with your gateway?
<5> why mess with routing tables. set the gateway IP for your local IP in /etc/network/interfaces or coresponding places, add the resolv.conf entry for your nameserver
<8> Other than nothing, of course?
<5> the rest of the work has to be done in your gateway
<5> s/in/on/
<7> let me refrase "that i still don't got any responce from my providers gw "
<9> for .deb files, I use dpkg to install ? right ?
<10> Yup
<9> I'm trying to install opera.deb using dpkg , whats the proper way to do it ?
<10> dpkg --help
<9> would that be dpkf -xi oper.deb
<9> ?
<9> I mean, dpkg -xi filename.dep
<11> dpkg -i *.deb
<9> http://d1f.org/~phalcon/ubuntu/Screenshot.png
<9> what do i do ?
<11> Kirt: apt-cache search xlib6g
<9> thanks
<9> it did'nt find anything
<11> Well, why are you trying to install the etch version of Opera?
<11> Why aren't you installing the Breezy Badger version of it?
<9> sorry, I'll try that now
<11> I mean...drrrr
<11> "Hmmm...let's see here. I use Ubuntu. I think I'll try and install the Linspire version of Opera instead of the Ubuntu version. Yeah. That makes perfect sense! I'm a genius!"
<5> hello Gaia^
<9> according to the site, that was the file I got when I selected breezy badger
<11> Kirt: Then read the Ubuntu wiki on installing Opera
<9> maybe, the site made a mistake ?
<9> okay
<11> Try a "sudo apt-get -f install"
<11> Just that
<11> No other arguments
<12> ok how can i boot into my unbootable linux installation from 2006 livecd?
<12> grub got messed up
<13> perhaps telling us what distro would be helpfun
<13> helpful even
<13> nothing about this is "fun"
<12> gentoo
<13> read the install guide.
<13> figure out how to chroot to it.
<13> then fix grub
<12> i'm on the livecd
<12> 2006
<13> and?
<13> do as I've suggested.
<12> well i had gentoo working for months
<13> yes i know. then you broke grub.
<13> now its time to fix grub, by doing what i've already said
<13> unless of course you can boot to the grub shell.
<13> in which case you should be able to figure it out
<12> i use ntloader to access a 512 linux.bin to get into grub usually
<14> playing with analog, some neat features in there
<12> i can't mount my partitions / or /boot from the install cd though
<12> it forces me to logon as user gentoo
<13> wow.
<15> did my message just get through? Or was it too logn
<13> thats what you get for using ntloader i guess.
<13> in any case, i cant help you with that mess.
<2> hiya d-side
<15> hello there. I have installed Mandriva 2006 on a small mini-PC I have here. It has 96MB RAM a 13GB harddisk and a 400mhz Celeron Processor. The distro is fully installed and working just fine. I have connected a network cable to my switch and my switch shows a LED
<15> indicating the presence of a node. the ifcfg-eth0 has all the IP information required, and I did a "Service network restart". I rebooted several times. Still, I can't access the internet. Pinging also does not work, it keeps timing out. Same goes for when the box is pinged from another computer on my network. Help appreciated.
<16> Quick! HIDE! it s a D-side !
<10> seb: Can you ping anything else on the same network?
<10> Evening Gaia
<16> gawd! caught watchas longword
<17> mayday mayday
<2> hiya Gaia^
<12> i can fix all this
<2> hiya longword
<16> ...---...
<17> how do i tell, using iptables, to allow port 110
<16> red boo :)
<12> all i need is root access from the gentoo cd
<15> longword, from the linux box? From the linux box I cannot ping anything except for localhost and the box's own IP. From other computers in my network (running Windows) I can ping all computers in my network, except for the linux box
<2> SeBsZ can you ping anything? your gateway? another lan machine?
<2> from you linux box that is
<15> Redragon^, no, nothing at all. I tried pinging other LAN machines, my gateway and DNS servers (at my ISP) but nothing replies at all.
<2> what does ifconfig say?
<10> Seb: What does mii-tool and ethtool say?
<15> Well, I can't paste it anywhere since I don't have internet access, but in a nutshell it says eth0, with the HWaddr and the correct inet addr of 192.168.0.100 , bcast of 192.168.0.255, mask of 255.255.255.0. I don't see the gateway anywhere which should be 192.168.0.1, maybe that is why (something wrong with gateway settings?). Other than that it says it has received 36.8KiB :S and Interrupt:4
<15> longword, hold on let me check
<15> mii-tool says eth0: negotiated 100baseTx-FD flow-control, link ok
<2> if you can't ping in the lan then its not the gateway
<15> ethtool says... command not found ... Let's see if I can install that tool
<15> alright makes sense... so not gateway...
<10> Try a different cable
<15> done that already
<15> tried 2 different ones
<15> and the LED on my switch comes on just fine
<15> Could it be the NIC? I mean, I'm 100% sure it worked fine 5 hours ago on XP still, but it's a Davicom NIC and perhaps linux doesn't like it? ALthough Mandriva's installation nicely told me the exact name and brand of it and found and installed the driver, so I doubt that's it.
<15> Well what else could it be?
<15> longword, just installed ethtool, what is the exact command you'd like me to enter?
<15> longword?
<18> methinks longword is dreamd is corrupting me, or 2001:1bd8::/32, or the font of ALL knowledge
<10> ethtool eth0 - but it won't tell you much more than mii-tool
<15> "Settings for eth0: No data available"
<3> well then
<13> so
<13> as with other fedoras, is 5 just more eyecandy? or are there changes with substance behind it
<12> yo can someone accept a file from me and upload to it to me when i reboot?
<2> hmmm
<12> it's only 512 bytes
<12> i need to get grub working again
<19> you need a usb keystick :) or mail it to yourself at gmail or something :)
<12> good idea
<12> tahnx
<5> D-side, updated software is most of it. the new 2.14 gnome, new open office, etc.
<13> shame no decent distros come with xgl out of the box.
<13> i think i'd even install one
<10> D: There's substance.
<13> do tell!
<13> i'm trying the vmware image now.
<5> desktop in 3D would be fun
<10> D: The new GNOME has lots of bugfixes and in particular plugged leaks
<13> I think I need about 4gb of ram on here.
<13> longword: enough to make me want to switch back from kde?
