<1> !seen madalin
<2> madalin <kid@madalin.users.undernet.org> was last seen on IRC in channel #linuxhelp, d h m s ago, saying: 'hiyas paul'.
<3> is x online?
<4> Evening all
<3> i cant login to my undernet id
<4> Seems just fine to me
<5> i gotta ask a question it is to do with an eggdrop
<4> Then you gotta ask somewhere else
<4> We don't do egg.
<5> its also about tcl
<5> it tells me that tcl library was found, but then tells me that tcl could not be found on machine
<5> wtf is that about?
<4> What Linux distribution?
<5> fefora core 2
<5> fedora



<6> probably searching for a binary named 'tcl' and maybe you have something like 'tcl8.4' ?
<4> yum install tcl tcl-devel
<6> tclsh actually
<5> OK THANKS ALOT
<5> it sorted the problem
<7> How can I make KDE to let me set a higher screen resllution ?
<4> That's your X server rather than KDE
<4> What Linux distribution?
<7> longword, than X server ...
<7> Debian
<4> Ah.
<4> Other distributions have nice GUI or curses config tools for X
<4> You get to use vi on /etc/X11/XFree86.config (if memory serves)
<4> Or /etc/x11/xorg.conf if you're really lucky.
<7> nope ... Xfree86 ...
<8> you could run base-config and skip to the X server configuration section
<8> it's /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 btw
<4> Can you do a dpkg --reconfigure on something?
<7> longword, there is no such file /etc/X11/XFree86.config
<8> dpkg-reconfigure <package> ... that might work, reconfiguring the x-window-system package
<8> or the xfree86 package directly which I can't remember the exact name of
<9> Howdy
<4> zeph: It's a long, long time since I used a distribution that still had XFree86
<4> Well, it feels like a long, long time anyway
<8> pff, this is Debian, we're happy to have vim over vi!
<7> longword, it won't let me use /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
<7> permission Denied
<4> I really thought they were letting the side down when they put a 2.6 kernel in woody though
<8> zephyr_: use sudo to edit that file
<7> daaave, I was root anyway
<4> How've you been daaave, haven't seen you in here for a while
<7> ok ..
<7> it works now.
<7> :D
<8> zephyr_: what do you get for "ls -l /etc/X11/XF86Config-4"...ok nm
<8> longword: pretty good, actually...I did have some pretty severe issues with different ISPs and shell providers
<8> hence the absence :p
<4> All coming up roses now?
<9> some ISPs will just cut you off if they think you have a LAN conected
<8> Great_Auk: that was part of it :)
<7> how do I reload that config. file?
<8> at the end of the day, though, it worked out pretty well...I mean, long-term the sun rises and sets with computers for me, but I did get some benefits from having a period of reduced focus
<8> zephyr_: I don't think you can at run-time, you have to restart the X server
<7> daaave, and how do I do that ?
<8> zephyr_: log out of KDE, kdm will probably restart the X server for you
<7> OK.
<8> see if you see the screen flicker when you log out
<7> I'll try
<7> :P
<7> ok
<7> Restarting KDE
<7> :D
<7> hopefully I'll be back
<8> hey um
<8> if you break it, you can probably run "X -configure" as root in a console
<8> doh
<8> ok anybody else, you can usually do that and get yourself a baseline X config file that will at least run and give you something to open xterms in :)
<7> OK. it worked out well.
<7> :D
<7> One more thing.
<7> How do I make xmms use mu USB headset?



<10> daaave how did the movie turn out ? worth renting
<8> Stealth? yeah it was good...not the greatest, but worth renting
<8> some of the camera shots were really outstanding actually
<10> k obliged
<7> daaave, what moovie was that ?
<8> there was this one shot where it went from water to gravel that I was like, whoa
<8> Stealth
<7> where can I find the config file from Sudo ?
<10> in /etc/sudoers but you edit it using the visudo command
<7> oh ..
<7> ok
<7> and how it should look like?
<5> has anybody managed to get fujifilm camera working on linux here?
<10> depends what you want it to do
<7> ScoT, to let me use sudo :)
<10> yeah but only on certain items or sudo to control everything with or 'without' giving a p***word? it takes many options
<7> ok ..
<7> than I'll read up on it... :)
<7> how do I make apt-get download the packages from the internet instead of using CDs?
<10> apt-setup iirc
<8> zephyr_: what's wrong with the CDs? :) you get the files quicker that way, not to mention saving bandwidth
<7> daaave, I don't have a bandwidth limit, and I'm just too lazy to switch disks all the time ... :P
<8> yeah but the mirrors do :)
<5> what i need to correct this problem pls?
<7> and?
<7> :P
<5> checking tk build dir... configure: error: Unable to find Tk directory or Tk package is not tk-dev
<7> crazy|one, try to install tk-dev
<7> :)
<7> probably that is the problem
<5> can i yum install this?
<7> crazy|one, probably yes
<7> daaave, how can I add a shortcut to my Desktop?
<8> no idea, I've only seen KDE a couple of times
<7> what are you usng than?
<8> probably right-click on the desktop?
<8> I use GNOME
<9> look at http://dev.scriptics.com for Tk & Tcl stuff
<5> zephyr tk-dev cannot be found....
<4> -devel
<8> although actually when I install my new system I may switch to KDE...used to be that KDE was the "pretty but dumb" one and GNOME was the "tons of knobs to twiddle" one
<8> but I hear that trend is reversing these days
<8> and I go where the blinky lights and knobs are
<7> daaave, I don't know ..
<7> I might try Gnome
<8> it's nice...I definitely recommend ditching metacity and using sawfish as your window manager, if you're into features
<8> other than that my GNOME setup is pretty stock
<7> daaave, one more thing ... how do I make xmms use my USB headset?
<8> that doesn't sound like an XMMS issue, you probably need to configure the underlying sound support
<8> ALSA/OSS etc
<7> interesting ..
<8> I don't have any experience with USB audio devices, but I guess the first thing I'd try is alsaconf
<7> Another mp3 player software was working, but not xmms ...
<8> ***uming you're using ALSA
<8> oh really?
<2> Yes daaave, really.
<7> and at the same time, I tryed xmms again, and it works.
<7> :D
<8> hmm maybe it is an XMMS issue then...hmm, look in the preferences at the output plugins
<8> oh
<7> it works now ..
<7> in a misterious way it fixed it self.
<7> :P
<7> Well, I'm gonna go now eat somethin' cos I'm starving ...
<7> brb.
<5> now it is giving me another error, I an trying to install amsn
<5> configure: error: stdc++ library not found
<11> ack. what chmod gives read access to a file? 644?
<8> sure, that would be read for everyone
<8> rw-r--r--
<11> hrm
<11> -rwx---r-- 1 root root 298274475 Jan 17 15:38 /var/log/netlog
<11> still can't grep the file
<8> chmod g+r /var/log/netlog
