<0> hey - wait... I run slack and I'm pretty sure I'm not in the utter moron (though I do have some moronic tendencies) LOL
<0> of course, for the life of me I couldn't get much else to boot - spent better part of 3 days trying to p*** the right commands to the kernel to get debian to boot...
<1> AndyL: bad keyboard, right? :P
<0> nope - tried just about everything - debian/fedora just wouldn't boot on that old pos
<2> AndyL: you have an excuse then.
<0> doesn't hurt - a decade back I was running slack so I'm a bit familiar with it... frustrates the hell outta me since it's almost the exact same package as back then actually ;) kinda like some of the stuff the other distros use
<3> Heya
<3> How can i set my linux for antiflood on ip ? pls
<4> how to set up a winxp box as a gateway to internet for linux boxes ?
<5> Shouldn't it be the other way around, ccg? :P
<4> well i have no choice
<6> Of course you have a choice.
<6> Not that setting up internet sharing on the Windows side is particularly hard.
<6> Not within channel scope, but not hard. It's not as if Windows doesn't come with all you need to set it up.
<4> well im unexperienced with windows
<5> lol



<7> We you are on the wrong channel for windows help
<5> But experienced with Linux?
<4> yes
<5> Heh. :)
<8> can someone help me with firewire installation please cant get it to recognise my camcorder
<9> what is the port ping connects on to another box ?
<6> Ping doesn't use a port.
<6> Ping is IMCP.
<0> just switched login to runlevel 4 - but on login, if i try to login as anything but root - i get an error "Your shell isn't found in /etc/shells" ? What's that mean?
<10> AndyL: no shell has been ***igned to those accounts for that particular run level
<0> where would I do that?
<10> AndyL: the old fashion way, edit your /etc/p***wd ... lazy way: run: chsh --help
<0> just add /bin/bash after the : ?
<0> suppose its kinda late to ask given it's rebooting already...
<11> evening
<0> tnx op
<10> AndyL: oh, sorry... I was trying to fix a missing symbol error in my xorg install [radeon driver]... everything built clean, but for this little snag...
<0> lol - np :)
<6> Why would you be trying to run the box in runlevel 4?
<6> For that matter, you claim to use Slack, which I thought didn't particularly care about runlevels, since it used a BSD init.
<12> so SuSE Enterprise must be purchased while OpenSuSE is still free?
<6> If you like.
<6> They're not the same thing.
<12> how are they different?
<13> How do I keep vim from inserting line feeds after 80 or so characters. I tried ":set nowrap" ":set wrapmargin=1" ":set wrapmargin=0" but nothing seems to work at least not consistently.
<10> WHOA! Some serious issues with DRI and linux Kernel *jez! as soon as soon as i fire up any DRI/OPENGL app: *ERROR* 3 holds heavyweight lock
<10> EVERYTHING in X freezes... like a rock
<10> brb
<14> Good day all nOOb here got a question on installing on SATA HD.
<15> Hello.
<15> What do you guys think of ubuntu ?
<16> g'morning
<17> ok trying to fix an upgarde issue and generate a new initrd .. problem is, / is on hda3 and /boot is on hda1. when i boot from CD in rescue mode, i cant chroot to hda3 and still acess hda1.. help?? Please??
<18> hello everyone
<18> i'm having problems mounting my USB pen drive on Pollix
<18> anyone willing to help me out ?
<19> hello
<18> hi how you doing?
<17> ok scratch that.. anyblody know about mkinitrd??
<17> *anybody
<20> what about it?
<17> trying desperately to re-do my boo timg
<17> boot img
<17> the directions i have dont match reality
<17> so i had to improvise from a boot cd in rescue mode
<17> heres the thing... my / is on hda3 and /boot was on hda1
<17> however if i try to chroot to the hda3 one... i lose all access to hda1 (/boot)
<20> uhm...I'll bbiab, but let me think about it...I've used it before, years ago, so I should remember how to do that
<17> mostly
<17> wait
<17> one last question
<17> can it be done WIHTOUT mounting /boot ?
<17> and then i can copy it over after
<17> hmm i think i have something there lol
<17> aha i copied everythign from hda1 (/boot) to hda3/root/boot then chroot to hda3, copied /root/boot to the now-empty /boot...
<17> gonna try the mkinitrd that way
<20> that should work...you just copy the stuff out to the real /boot
<20> but...can't you mount hda1 onto /boot after chrooting to hda3?



<17> sadly no
<17> hda1 doesnt exist after that
<17> LOL
<17> literally
<17> it wont see it
<17> well thats not extirely true.. it insists i specify a 'type" when i try to mount it
<6> Which is nonsense... if the kernel can see hda3 and allow you to chroot into it, it can certainly see the same hardware on hda1.
<17> now
<17> i made the new img
<17> i just copied it over again
<17> however when i tried to boot it said the file wasnt found (the .img)
<17> gonna check the grub conf
<17> takes 5 mins to boot off the CD every time
<17> and once i chroot to the hda3 i cant chroot back to the cd one so....
<17> unless oyu know a way
<17> working so far
<17> omfg it worked
<21> hi
<17> Be Right Back!
<17> is there anyone who can help with a puzzling access denied issue with mysql?
<22> hi
<22> anyone on ?
<23> On where?
<22> online i meant...
<22> can you help me with somethin ?
<22> what's the command to add a user from root login on a server
<23> Depends on the something.
<23> man adduser
<22> and i if i want to add it to have root access 0:0 how do i do that ?
<23> You don't
<22> and if i want *
<22> well how do i give root priviliges to the user i just added ?
<23> There's no valid reason to add an additional user with root privileges
<22> bla bla :>
<22> will you tell me the command ?
<23> Either use the normal root account, or setup sudo
<22> i got my reason :)
<23> Yeah sure. and I think I don't like it
<24> AntrenezHOTI: Sure you do. They are just not good ones.
<22> yeah as you say ;)
<22> 10x allot :)
<23> Hmm, root's uid 0, right
<23> AntrenezHOTI: Try telinit 0
<22> yeah right :))
<23> Smells like a kiddie to me
<25> really, telling anybody to telinit 0 is irresponsible to the point of stupidity
<25> you have no idea what sort of system he's on
<25> it could lose some company many thousands of dollars
<25> and they might just come after you as an accomplice.
<23> Nope, but atleast it'll get some attention.
<25> email the admin.
<25> then they might have a chance to get a backup system going before they lose thousands of dollars worth of whatever.
<23> Admin of what? I don't know what box he's cracked in to.
<25> Coma: then imho you should do nothing.
<25> breaking somebody else's box is irresponsnible/
<25> irresponsible even
<23> And leaving it cracked with a kiddie having root access isn't?
<23> No matter what you do, it'll be bad.
<25> Getting yourself involved is irresponsible
<25> because the consequences are unpredictable.
<25> But you're *responsible* for the consequences
<23> I'd say that the admin not doing his job is responsible.
<25> *shrug*
<26> vik: g'morn
<27> 'lo.
<26> you give hydrogen a whirl?
<27> yeah.
<27> Nice.
<27> except I've struck the one problem of the export sounding absolutely rubbish in rosegarden.
<26> what's it exporting as?
<27> I've tried both h2song (native) and midi.
<27> importing midi into rosegarden ... well, I might as well not have bothered, due to no appreciable drumset in the GM patchset I know of.
<26> think i remember seeing it can be a slave to other apps as jack
<27> And importing h2song into rosegarden.... weird.
