<0> cyberzeus read the rules :)
<1> i will use Linux but i want to learn which linux works on my SATA hdd
<2> CyberZeus`: Any recent distro should work fine
<1> recent distro ?
<2> Yeah, as in ubuntu 6.06, fedora core 5, suse 10.something, etc etc
<3> centos 3.7 or 4.3
<1> thanks Coma
<2> Anything that's no older thana couple of months
<3> oh well, was gonna tell him the drive didn't matter but the sata controller does
<2> He'll probably disciver shortly, after downloading lackware 1.0 ;)
<2> s/ci/co/
<3> hehe
<4> lackware ?
<4> lol
<4> that distro really exists ? :))
<2> Oh, must have been a typo :P



<0> Redragon: centos 3.7 or 4.3 <-- why that specificity?
<0> I mean, why not 4.2 ?
<3> cause if your gonna download linux you should download the latest
<0> yeap... but 3.7?
<3> 3x series is 2.4 kernel, 4x series is 2.6 kernel
<0> no comments :$
<3> both very much up to date
<0> yeah, i'm on a centos 4.3, quite fine... (though I miss debian sarge)
<5> hi
<5> is anyone around this morning
<5> ?
<6> around what?
<7> Fiona is
<5> around the channel
<4> lol guys I just met a lamer today. He open a terminal and started to flood me with ping -f -s 65000 Stoian.users.undernet.org and was wondering why I don`t disconnect from IRC :)))))
<4> was the thing that made my day ! :))
<8> always take a moron with you, so can feel better anytime in the day
<4> T`aZ: ...
<6> yeah, that's one of the reasons we shouldn't kill _all_ the idiots in the world. They have their uses. We just need to reduce their population a bit.
<4> :))
<8> CatalinuX: i'm a bit joking, i dont like calling people idiots just because they cant use a computer :p
<4> ok :P
<6> T`aZ: I agree with that statement completely. But there are still far too many idiots.
<4> but they shouldn`t pretend they know how to use them when they don`t
<4> i am talking about computers here
<0> hey guys, don't fall into easy complacence :) ##referring to the idiot stuff ##
<8> depends on the definition of $use , $knowledge etc etc :p
<6> mart1: easy complacence?
<0> well fiver, that was a way of speaking...
<3> no no an idiot isnt one who can't use a computer, its one who swears they can use a computer but really cant
<6> !dict idiot
<9> Dictionary 'idiot' a person of subnormal intelligence
<0> but I don't think people who just don't know how to compile sourcecode, or doing an upgrade, or an ssh tunneling... etc...
<0> ... deserve being treated as idiots :)
<6> mart1: I agree. There's a distinct difference between an idiocy and ignorance. One is curable.
<4> Redragon: That was my point too
<0> yeap!
<6> s/an//
<0> the raised point?
<0> [English doubt] <-- ignorance
<3> though customers that call me and ask for support questions beyond my scope of requirement piss me off
<5> i have a problem with email, when i send mail out it sends it out as user@domain.net.net
<10> hey, can I have some advice from you guys? - I'm thinking of setting up a public shell server, is this a bad idea?
<11> how do i install rpm trough shell? rpm -ivr ?
<6> rpm -Uhv is the "preferred" way
<6> although, if it's fedora, there's an even better way
<6> but you're too busy asking the same question on 3 or 4 channels on freenode to notice.
<12> Heh.
<13> hey Redragon you about?
<5> i have a problem with email, when i send mail out it sends it out as user@domain.net.net
<5> any idea how i can fix that
<5> ?
<13> question #1 what email app?
<6> Jak-gumbo, check your hosts file, your system's hostname, and your MTA's config file(s) for host settings
<6> hostname/domain settings even
<5> sendmail i believe, i kind of just got tossed into this problem, not super familiar with linux
<5> any help would be greatly appreciated
<6> config files will likely be in /etc/mail/
<5> ok if im using putty to remote access this server, how can i access these files?



<6> you can cat or less them to view, or use vi/vim or nano/pico .. depends on the distro and what tools have been installed
<5> wish i wasnt such a linux noob, guess i wont be after a while of just being tossed into this......um ok im at a prompt it says root #
<6> do you know what distro it is?
<5> redhat?
<9> i heard redhat is see fedora
<6> cat /etc/redhat-release
<5> red hat linux release 9 (shrike)
<6> ok, you may have pico installed. if not, you have vim, but it's a little harder to use for the inexperienced
<6> vimdoc.sf.net is a good one to bookmark for that
<5> i believe its pico
<5> how can i tell for sure?
<6> a few ways: locate pico ; whereis pico ; pico -w <some.file> ; and others I won't go into just now
<5> /usr/share/man/man1/piconv.1.gz
<5> /usr/share/man/man1/pico.1.gz
<5> /usr/share/icons/Bluecurve/16x16/apps/gripicon.png
<5> /usr/share/icons/Bluecurve/32x32/apps/gripicon.png
<5> /usr/share/icons/Bluecurve/48x48/apps/gripicon.png
<5> woops
<5> sorry about that
<6> yeah, don't paste output here :) unless it's just one or two lines
<6> !paste
<9> More than 3 lines? Paste your stuff at http://paste.getlinuxhelp.org/ and then tell us the url it gives you.
<5> http://paste.getlinuxhelp.org/2352
<14> guten abend
<6> guten tag
<6> Jak-gumbo: well, the man page is installed.. but it looks like maybe the binary isn't. rpm -q pico
<6> ack, scratch that.. rpm -q pine
<14> argh, need to change fonts, brb
<14> ah, better
<14> CatalinuX, if you are a psycho girl then please take your pills :-p
<5> pine-4.44-19
<4> lol daGerman :))
<14> 1 crazy woman on linuxhelp is enough to handle :-p
<15> I've seen \n and \r in some scripts - I know they represent new line and line feed, but what about \c?
<6> Jak-gumbo: ok, then pico is installed
<6> pico -w /etc/hosts for starters
<16> hello! im trying to play a *.mp4 file in xine and it plays way to fast ... any ideas?
<16> samw file works fine on the win box :>
<16> i get no error in xine when opening file but it just plays way to fast, like 1 hour movie in 10 sec ...
<5> 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
<5> 12.148.203.29 houlihanlawrence.net
<5> 10.3.1.31 mail.houlihanlawrence.com
<5> fiver
<6> Jak-gumbo: that looks fine, which means it's probably something in one of sendmail's config files, which can be found in /etc/mail/* sendmail.org has good docs to reference. I'm taking my lunch break from work now.
<6> Jak-gumbo: oh, also take a quick gander at /etc/sysconfig/network for the HOSTNAME definition there just in case
<3> someone say sendmail?
<13> lol
<5> help? lol
<3> whats the problem?
<6> Redragon: his only problem seems to be it's sending mail as domain.net.net instead of just domain.net - maybe you can help, I'm off to lunch
<5> what fiver said
<5> thanks for your help fiver
<5> enjoy your lunch
<6> no problem. bbiab
<3> thats an odd one
<3> check /etc/sysconfig/network
<5> how do i do that, im a newb
<3> see what the hostname listing is there
<3> cat /etc/sysconfig/network
<3> see what hostname line says
<5> networking =yes
<5> hostname=houlihanlawrence.net
<3> i'm guessing someone goofed
<5> gateway=10.3.1.1
<3> what are you using to generate the emails?
<5> i dunno?
<3> what email client?
<3> how are you sending mail as domain.net.net ?
<5> i can try to find out, i think this is automated mails going out
<3> you gotta generate the email somehow
<3> need to find out whats generating the email
<13> i think i'm gonna quit smoking
