00:23.56 | Clyphox | [yawn] |
00:24.44 | SpudULike | Thought you were busy Quaking it! |
00:26.03 | Davilion | evening guys |
00:26.12 | Clyphox | Busy installing a new mod and burning quake3 for resudaed |
00:26.22 | Clyphox | heya Davilion |
00:26.34 | Clyphox | He's being a good geek and making coffe atm :-) |
00:26.45 | SpudULike | ;-) |
00:26.46 | Clyphox | (takes ages to grow...) |
00:27.16 | SpudULike | Are you going to run a game server or join a public one? |
00:27.46 | Clyphox | I generally play online |
00:28.06 | Clyphox | Not sure if my current upstream (only 16k) is enough |
00:28.40 | Davilion | heh |
00:28.42 | Clyphox | I'm not really a fan of Q3a anymore.. I play UrbanTerror a hell of alot instead |
00:28.51 | Davilion | i can't get into games much |
00:28.59 | Davilion | i used to play so much more than i do now |
00:29.04 | Clyphox | me too |
00:29.04 | Davilion | used to be a real doom2 addict |
00:29.08 | Clyphox | hehe |
00:29.21 | Clyphox | I tend to get re-addicted |
00:29.36 | Clyphox | Been addicted for a record long time.. about 7months now I think.. |
00:29.41 | SpudULike | I think it might be fun to get a #gllug games night sorted out, any game, anything that'll network. |
00:29.48 | Clyphox | OOHHHH!! iTs A BIIGGG mug! |
00:30.09 | Clyphox | Quake is the traditional geek game |
00:30.32 | Clyphox | But seeing as we're all leet internet ppl anyway it would be easier to setup a GLLUG server on the net.. |
00:30.45 | Clyphox | Resudaed agrees (btw0 |
00:30.46 | Clyphox | ) |
00:32.10 | SpudULike | It would be nice to start off with something that everyone would have. BZFlag maybe. |
00:33.58 | Clyphox | never heard of it.. |
00:35.28 | SpudULike | Is Doom Freely available? |
00:35.40 | Clyphox | the demo is networkable |
00:35.54 | Clyphox | Ahh I know |
00:36.05 | Clyphox | Q Team Fortress |
00:36.08 | Clyphox | thats free :-) |
00:36.13 | Clyphox | or UT2003 |
00:36.35 | SpudULike | UT2003 demo? Does that network? |
00:36.55 | Clyphox | yup.. |
00:37.04 | Clyphox | Same as Wolf32 demo |
00:37.38 | SpudULike | I didn't even realise that Wolf32 ran on Linux as a client. |
00:38.17 | Clyphox | Its great :-) |
00:38.35 | Clyphox | er Thats wolfenstein (new one) I mean.. |
00:38.36 | eye69 | UT2k3 isn't that fun... |
00:38.42 | Clyphox | I agree |
00:38.49 | Clyphox | esp with my video card |
00:38.54 | Stephen | Clyphox: ah, that's no fun, the old one was sheer class |
00:39.06 | eye69 | Ahhh, I should install RTCW |
00:39.14 | Clyphox | Stephen: I have a copy.. |
00:39.38 | Clyphox | Finnished it at least twice.. |
00:39.49 | Clyphox | used to know the cheats backwards |
00:40.26 | Stephen | I only ever had the first one, cos it was shareware |
00:40.26 | Clyphox | Wolf rocked |
00:40.47 | Clyphox | gone open no iirc |
00:40.49 | Stephen | problem is that is somehow manages to hard-lock my PIII 5000 |
00:40.59 | Clyphox | lol |
00:41.06 | Stephen | s/5000/500/ |
00:41.07 | Clyphox | I wouldn't mind a Piii 5k! |
00:41.23 | Stephen | get a dual xeon box then |
00:41.23 | Clyphox | I only got 2k :( |
00:43.36 | Stephen | tbh, for most things, you could swap my 500Mhz chip for a, say 266Mhz one, and I'd probably not notice the difference for ages |
00:43.47 | Stephen | faster chips for me would just be overkill |
00:44.02 | Clyphox | I am glad I have a dualy.. makes life very nice |
00:44.16 | Clyphox | Compile a kernel and Quake at the same time and not notice |
00:48.16 | Clyphox | I'm jobless |
00:48.44 | Stephen | I'm not, but I don't get paid |
00:49.07 | Clyphox | whats the point? what do you do? (or not) |
00:49.38 | Stephen | get experience, and something I can put down on my cv |
00:50.00 | Stephen | cos atm, I don't have anything I can really put down on a CV |
00:50.13 | Clyphox | what do you do? |
00:50.29 | Stephen | sysadmin for a games company |
00:50.29 | Clyphox | PS: regarding the CV.... LIE |
00:50.35 | Clyphox | MUHAHAHAHA |
00:50.41 | Stephen | I couldn't never do that |
00:50.43 | Clyphox | Sounds fun.. |
00:50.57 | Clyphox | Was that an intentionaly double negative? |
00:51.14 | Stephen | except you have to deal with counter strike players, who are the most annoying people in the world |
00:51.23 | Stephen | no, it wasn't, just a typo |
00:52.37 | Clyphox | do you run CS servers? |
00:52.50 | Stephen | yep |
00:53.17 | Clyphox | just that or the whole lan maybe? |
00:54.16 | Stephen | well, I actually run the linux servers and leave the CS stuff to people who understand and care about it |
00:54.56 | Clyphox | da |
00:56.04 | Stephen | eye69: any advice? is it worth doing? |
00:57.16 | Clyphox | I should subscribe to some security stuff.. |
00:57.24 | eye69 | Stephen: Do you have people on the machine you can't ultimately trust? |
00:57.52 | eye69 | I think it's worth doing anyway...anybody getting to a non-root shell can become root. |
00:58.20 | Stephen | oh, okay then, I'll have to persuade my boss that it's a good idea to reboot the machine |
00:58.41 | Stephen | of course, I doubt he'll listen |
01:00.12 | eye69 | Ok, this is incredibly annoying. Even if you have the Windows version of Tribes 2 you need to buy the Linux version. |
01:00.24 | eye69 | What's wrong with supplying Linux binaries anyway? |

08:41.14 | zachary | jason_ukfsn: dummy had a question about trouble shooting a kernel module. After rebuilding a kernel for a network card and it fails with modprobe, what would be the first place to look? |
08:42.53 | dummy | my modules in 2.4.20 |
08:42.59 | dummy | miss net |
08:43.08 | dummy | wheres 2.4.18 contains a dir called net |
08:43.31 | dummy | which contains net/8390.o.gz |
08:43.49 | dummy | rather odd..maybe i should build the donald becker modules seperately |
08:44.36 | dummy | anyways brb i'll try it out |
08:47.05 | jason_ukfsn | the first thing I would check is how the kernel was built. 99% of the time when I hear this kind of problem it's because the kernel didn't have the driver built as a module or make modules had not been run. |

08:49.05 | jason_ukfsn | wb dummy |
08:49.17 | dummy | i have a rc script which calls modprobe on boot up |
08:49.22 | dummy | i just built the 2.4.20 kernel |
08:49.29 | Drusilla | Hello jason_ukfsn |
08:49.37 | dummy | but it says cant loacte module 3x59x |
08:49.41 | dummy | *locate |
08:49.47 | dummy | 3c59x |
08:50.42 | jason_ukfsn | Have you checked that the module was built - ie not missed out in the make config process? |
08:50.48 | dummy | theres a diff between 3c509x so im wondering if its the wrong module i got running here |
08:50.57 | dummy | im looking at it now |
08:51.52 | dummy | CONFIG_NET_VENDOR_3COM=y |
08:52.06 | dummy | CONFIG_EL3=m |
08:52.37 | dummy | thats the only mudle i selected |
08:52.39 | dummy | module |
08:52.57 | dummy | when i try a netconfig it says try adding it modules.conf or rebuilding ur kernel |
08:54.06 | dummy | 3Com PCI EtherLink PCI and EISA cards, the 3c590 and 3c900/905 series. |
08:54.09 | dummy | thats what i have |
08:54.23 | jason_ukfsn | What do you have in your /etc/modules.conf for eth0? |
08:54.53 | dummy | nothing |
08:56.11 | jason_ukfsn | Add a line like the following to your /etc/modules.conf file: |
08:56.21 | jason_ukfsn | alias eth0 3c59x |
08:56.26 | jason_ukfsn | and then try again. |
08:57.04 | dummy | k i'll reboot else i'll just build the module manually |
08:57.10 | dummy | brb |
08:57.20 | jason_ukfsn | wait! |
08:58.10 | jason_ukfsn | Damn, I've just checked a .config file and he's built the wrong module :( he should have selected the CONFIG_VORTEX module I think. |
08:58.13 | zachary | jason_ukfsn: dummy should have been able to do a modeprobe after editing modules.conf right? |
08:58.37 | jason_ukfsn | yep, I suspect he's spent too long around a certain DOS based OS. |
08:58.51 | zachary | yup, config -> reboot. |

10:08.44 | Tarragon | murb: I checked around and the channel entry message is a colour feature as opposed to a bug. URL's are not automatically coloured. Asking on some on the DALnet and Undernet sysop channels they said that colour has been out for a long time and it is acceptable. The initial problem with colour was mIRC treated it differently but most can now cope (since 1996). Note they did not say all could cope. We have now removed the colour |

10:20.37 | dummy | oh yeah i use nvidia drivers |
10:20.42 | jason_ukfsn | Note that without AGP DRI and GLX are non starters so you wont get any benefits from having such a shiny video card. |
10:20.53 | dummy | i know but i dont play games n stuff |
10:20.57 | dummy | so it really doesnt hurt |
10:21.14 | dummy | plus nvidia has tips on tweaking the card |
10:21.24 | dummy | but thats a latter issue |
10:22.51 | jason_ukfsn | dummy what sound card do you have? |
10:23.00 | dummy | via ac 97 |
10:23.01 | dummy | built in |
10:23.14 | dummy | i use opensoynd drivers cuz they give you 5.1 output |
10:23.18 | dummy | opensound |
10:23.38 | dummy | i believe 2.4.20 suppports it but im not using it |
10:25.39 | jason_ukfsn | hmm, It is years since I used the OSS drivers other than those included with the standard kernel. |
10:26.10 | dummy | yeah sound cards are really annoying especially if they rnt compatible |
10:29.32 | jason_ukfsn | dummy - I've edited the .config file a little for you. Mostly it was OK however there were one or two tweaks I made. The edited version is at http://www.jasonclifford.com/dummy-config Note that I am compiling it at the moment just to be sure that it does however I wont boot it as it does not match my system |
10:30.28 | dummy | so i jsur replace the .config and remake it? |
10:30.39 | dummy | k thnks a lot for ur help and time... |
10:31.20 | jason_ukfsn | replace the .config with the file at the above link. Then type in the following "make dep && make clean && make bzImage && make modules" |
10:31.32 | dummy | k kewl |
10:31.47 | jason_ukfsn | After that finishes make install and make install_modules however do remember to remove the previous modules install. |
10:32.02 | dummy | i ahve a P4 :) |
10:32.10 | dummy | not p3 so imma change that |
10:32.17 | jason_ukfsn | In that case you need to change the PIII setting |
10:33.59 | jason_ukfsn | I take it that it's safe for me to remove the config file from my website now? |
10:34.56 | dummy | yes |
10:34.57 | dummy | thnks |
10:35.05 | dummy | i should disbale the sound i guess |
10:35.18 | dummy | wont be using it :) |
10:35.32 | jason_ukfsn | Follow the instructions provided on the OSS site for that one. |
10:35.48 | dummy | oh yes i have to jsut install the opensound drivers they amke their own modules |
10:37.23 | jason_ukfsn | have fun then. |
10:37.32 | dummy | thnks again |

11:54.28 | jason_ukfsn | yes, suffering lag once again. I suspect there is a lag monster on my local NTL net |
11:54.52 | highbury | dpash: its to do with mime encoding IIRC |
11:55.25 | dpash | anything to convert it to utf-8? |
11:55.40 | highbury | and some mail servers/software has to fold text at 72 (?) chars so must show where to fold lines back |
11:56.32 | nasrat | dpash: it's =hh so you should be able to do it with perl. |

13:59.43 | resuDaed | hi Huhn |
14:00.11 | resuDaed | its been about 5-6 weeks since I have logged in at this time during a weekday |
14:00.51 | resuDaed | Huhn : what mail client do you use? |
14:00.59 | Huhn | resuDaed: mutt |
14:01.48 | resuDaed | does it delete msgs by default? |
14:02.07 | Huhn | delete when moving to other folders? or what do you mean? |
14:02.23 | resuDaed | don;t wirry |
14:02.33 | Stephen | it'll only delete messages if you mark them as deleted |
14:03.56 | SpudUAway | resuDaed: Canada, I think. |
14:06.10 | resuDaed | SpudUAway : ah |
14:20.13 | Huhn | resuDaed: try procmail to sort mails before using mutt |
14:20.23 | resuDaed | fetchmail? |
14:20.39 | Huhn | fetchmail to get mails, procmail to sort them, mutt to read them |
14:20.46 | resuDaed | ah |
14:22.03 | *** join/#gllug zachary (~zachary@host217-35-19-153.in-addr.btopenworld.com) |
14:22.14 | Stephen | yep, using mutt means you end up using a million other programs too |
14:22.35 | resuDaed | I like mutt, looks nice over ssh |
14:22.50 | resuDaed | (of major importance) |
14:23.11 | Stephen | oh, don't get me wrong, I wouldn't switch to anything else |
14:23.48 | resuDaed | I have a ton of security reports RE: magnus@brian.resudaed.com (eye69) |
14:24.53 | Stephen | nice homepage there resuDaed :) |
14:25.07 | resuDaed | I need a hotkey for mutt, [ctrl]+[m] is Moz, [ctrl]+[shift]+[m] is xmms |
14:25.20 | resuDaed | Stephen : what, the snippit from my apache logs |
14:25.38 | Stephen | yer, all the IIS exploits |
14:26.25 | resuDaed | needed something in there because I needed apache on port 80, but didn't havce time to write a homepage |
14:27.49 | resuDaed | Stephen : I get hundreds every day |
14:28.03 | resuDaed | more than I get actual hits since I moved the mp3 dir |
14:28.13 | resuDaed | (mp3.resudaed.com) |
14:28.30 | Stephen | hehe, I haven't actually read my http logs in a long time |
14:28.56 | resuDaed | I had to move my mp3s ... they started appearing in search engines |
14:29.35 | resuDaed | (they used to be brian.servemp3.com) |
14:31.41 | resuDaed | ok, for some reason I have lost my fetchmail conf ... so I need to setup fetchmail, procmail, spamassassin(?) |
14:32.33 | resuDaed | and is it possible to change key bindings in mutt? I prefer the ways of the text www browsers (<- goes back a screen, -> goes forward, as opposed to it going through mails |
14:36.12 | Huhn | resuDaed: spamassassin can be called from procmail, no prob |
14:36.32 | Huhn | key bindings in mutt are possible, yes |
14:42.01 | murb | do people *still* use procmail? |
14:42.06 | murb | i mean why? |
14:42.15 | resuDaed | I apologise for my lacking upstream, I only have 128k UP |
14:42.22 | resuDaed | murb : why not? |
14:42.28 | Huhn | murb: I use it, what's wrong with that? |
14:42.37 | Stephen | me too |
14:42.46 | murb | Huhn: nothing. |
14:42.59 | Huhn | then why do you ask why? :) |
14:43.04 | murb | and does an mkdir mp3 |
14:43.25 | resuDaed | murb : have you taken your medication today? |
14:45.05 | murb | nope, i can't take my ritalin supply outside the uk without tricky questions from customs |
14:45.19 | Huhn | what's ritalin? |
14:46.30 | resuDaed | ok, for some reason, fetchmailconf is failing, anyone have any suggestions (or can lend me their conf files) |
14:46.54 | Tarragon | Ritalin is a child activity control drug |
14:47.12 | Tarragon | Methylphenidate Hydrochloride |
14:47.33 | Huhn | ah, that fits |
14:47.42 | resuDaed | lol |
14:47.59 | Huhn | resuDaed: don't have a .fetchmailrc handy right now, sorry |
14:48.40 | resuDaed | if I set up the ~/.fetchmailrc, will fetchmail run as a daemon? |
14:49.03 | resuDaed | there is only 1 user (me) that needs to receive emails on this account |
14:49.11 | resuDaed | s/account/box |
14:49.12 | Stephen | resuDaed: it isn't very advanced, but http://wwwusers.brookes.ac.uk/02164690/fetchmailrc |
14:49.25 | murb | fetchmail is considerably worse than procmail in the bad things list |
14:49.51 | zachary | highbury: Need a joke? |
14:49.55 | Stephen | resuDaed: you don't need to set anything to run as a daemon, just use fetchmail -d x where x is the number of seconds between each poll |
14:50.01 | highbury | not necessarily ESR's proudest moments |
14:50.25 | murb | i was scared when he said he was going to stop doing public speaking and spend more time behind a keyboard writting code. |
14:50.33 | Stephen | hmm, I get along fine with fetchmail, what does everyone else use then? |
14:50.38 | highbury | useful though, and was an important example of OpenSource in its time |
14:50.47 | highbury | zachary: fire away |
14:51.10 | murb | highbury: i read the cathederal and the bazzar, but couldn't understand how fetchmail could be considered to have anything to do with it as a case study. |
14:51.24 | Huhn | Stephen: I get the feeling that us 2 are a bit old fashioned here ;) |
14:51.48 | Stephen | Huhn: yer, it's looking that way ;) |
14:52.14 | Huhn | Stephen: and you know what? I'm proud ;) at least I can claim that I started with Unix, not Linux ;)) |
14:52.52 | murb | Huhn: which Unix? |
14:52.57 | Stephen | Huhn: I can't, I've only recently used solaris, other than that I've only ever used Linux |
14:53.21 | highbury | need OpenSource jokes, though |
14:54.03 | murb | opensores? |
14:54.16 | Stephen | not bad there murb :) |

14:55.10 | murb | # not mind etc, citing sores etc. |
14:55.16 | Huhn | murb: some old Solaris stuff that was installed on the machines at our computer centre.. long time ago :) |
14:55.23 | resuDaed | what is the %T in the conf? |
14:55.34 | resuDaed | ^-- Stephen |
14:55.50 | resuDaed | for the procmail command |
14:55.59 | highbury | Version 6 on PDP11.45 |
14:56.34 | murb | Huhn: it reflects badly if it was a uni system and you used it after linux was avalible, or after murble had used his first unix system. |
14:56.37 | Stephen | resuDaed: um, iirc, it makes procmail add the From: field in the message correctly, so that it doesn't keep appending to the same message |
14:56.54 | murb | ('due to me being about 10 years younger than you) |
14:57.19 | highbury | murb: I see no jokes there |
14:57.50 | murb | highbury: i didn't think huhns age was funny either. |
14:58.05 | murb | are you putting together a presentation *with* jokes? |
14:58.14 | murb | is somsone going to do a lvm talk for end lusers? |
14:59.10 | highbury | I just thought I'd try one out tonight |
14:59.29 | Tarragon | highbury: Opensource is a joke. Been around 20 years and look just how many security reports there are. Windows is new but no security reports. |
15:00.15 | Stephen | hehe Tarragon |
15:00.43 | Tarragon | Not mine sadly. old joke. |
15:01.13 | Huhn | highbury: what presentation? |
15:01.33 | murb | what is tonight? |
15:06.48 | Tarragon | You could always do the "if MS made cars/planes/guns/VCRs/TV dinners/toasters/..." stories. That way you could add your own GNU or Open Source ones as well |

16:10.08 | eye69 | resuDaed: It works as root. |
16:10.21 | eye69 | resuDaed: You should be able to loosen that security a bit. |
16:10.36 | nasrat | resuDaed: you can export XINITRC=.xinitrcgames |
16:10.52 | nasrat | resuDaed: check out http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/ |
16:11.33 | nasrat | http://freefall.homeip.net/stuff/quakescript/ |
16:17.39 | resuDaed | so why is it that I am getting user not authorized to run the X server? |
16:17.47 | resuDaed | as normal user? |
16:18.02 | nasrat | resuDaed: before you run it run xauth add :1 . $(mcookie) |
16:18.09 | resuDaed | (the same user that invoked it from console in the first place |
16:19.11 | nasrat | resuDaed: then xinit -- :1 -auth $XAUTHORITY |
16:19.53 | resuDaed | done, its working fine |
16:20.43 | resuDaed | actually, its not |
16:20.50 | nasrat | you should be able to script that,etc. Sorry it's been a while since I've played with xauth (ssh is your friend...) |
16:21.29 | nasrat | resuDaed: what's wrong |
16:21.31 | resuDaed | so I need to run the xauth command every time I run the xinit command (for :1) |
16:21.58 | resuDaed | tom@brian:~$ xauth add :1 . $(mcookie) |
16:21.58 | resuDaed | xauth: /home/tom/.Xauthority not writable, changes will be ignored |

16:35.34 | nasrat | jenson: fat32 (vfat) |
16:35.40 | Stephen | jenson: vfat probably, but it's hardly optimal |
16:35.52 | jenson | ty |
16:36.13 | resuDaed | jenson : either vfat or ext2 (ex2 only if you are running widnows NT5+ |
16:36.46 | resuDaed | jenson : or build a server, and run NFS/samba shares |
16:37.09 | jenson | resuDaed: I'm an idiot newbie gurl |
16:38.14 | resuDaed | jenson vfat should be easily readable from both, however I've never seen linux run at a decent speed from vfat |
16:38.50 | resuDaed | nasrat : I have the .Xauthority file now with the 2 cookies added |

16:43.05 | nasrat | resuDaed: I think you may need to do some xauth magic, are you in a position to restart X then just add the :1 display to xauth then try the xinit |
16:43.10 | resuDaed | ah well, it'll make do for now |

18:52.51 | formi | hello |
18:53.09 | formi | i keep forgetting xchat is running |
18:55.07 | formi | zachary: did you have any connectivity problems yesterday? |
18:55.41 | zachary | yes |
18:55.57 | zachary | all day. |
18:56.10 | formi | one of my charity crew was complaining about aol not working |
18:56.24 | formi | i know about the bt screw up, |
18:56.45 | formi | got a call, saying "formi I can't connect to the server" |
18:56.59 | zachary | it wasn't on the status line, what was wrong with bt? |
18:57.08 | formi | tracerouted, and found 2 machines playing ball with the packets |
18:58.30 | zachary | lovely :o/ |
18:58.54 | formi | i got some info from the pipex network status page |
18:59.08 | formi | they have it so easy, they can always blame bt |
18:59.46 | Leeds | zachary: look at the register |
19:00.04 | formi | <PROTECTED> |
19:00.46 | formi | what I found odd is that two adsl connected client machines were playing with the packets |
19:00.57 | formi | usually it is pipex routers on the game |
19:02.35 | formi | unbelievable what people do |
19:02.48 | formi | waiting for 6 minutes for oo to start |
19:03.33 | formi | my patience usually vaporizes after 10sec, and I run a p2 366 |
19:04.49 | formi | ok, so aol was officially hit, customer support drones told Caroline that her modem wasn't supported by aol, and to take it back to the shop, |
19:05.20 | formi | after being working for a month, they somehow forgot to tell her the network was down |
19:07.27 | Leeds | my cousin uses AOL, customer service told her her modem was broken... I set her up with a free Freeserve account to prove the modem worked, then told her to call AOL back and play hell with them |
19:07.46 | formi | zachary: you would have found out if you had read the gllug list |
19:08.08 | formi | Leeds: can you confirm there is no grammatical mistakes on my last sentence? |
19:08.29 | Leeds | formi: looks good to me |
19:08.54 | formi | this complicated past tenses annoy me |
19:09.48 | formi | in castillian, you can have really twisted tenses, galician has no composite past tenses, and english is a mess as usual |
19:10.20 | zachary | formi: I will not disagree with you! :-) |
19:11.11 | formi | galicians believe: if it is in the past, it is in the past. So no need to be complicated about it |
19:11.44 | zachary | sounds resonable to me. |
19:12.05 | formi | castillian has about 1/3 more past tenses that english, |
19:12.37 | formi | and a few more that us english, :-> |

20:44.47 | jenson | plus im gonna get killed for ruining my win install. i wouldnt be surprised if my dad bans any use of linux soon |
20:45.07 | jenson | he thinks linux caused every problem we ever had with windows (he used to blame everything on DOS games) |

21:20.47 | dpash | well that was a fun meeting |
21:21.03 | dpash | they ignore me until the end when the chair comes over and asks why I was there |
21:21.15 | Leeds | dpash: welcome to politics |
21:21.17 | dpash | and I said that I was just interested on knowing what was going on |
21:21.30 | murble | did you film them? |
21:21.37 | dpash | He said that there were 2 empty spaces on the council next year and I could be co-opted on |
21:21.38 | murble | are you going to publish transcripts of such meetings? |
21:21.49 | murble | just for showing up? |
21:21.53 | dpash | murble: no, but publish minutes at least |
21:22.17 | dpash | at this point I told him that I was already on the council and he said "oh" |
21:22.22 | jenson | Leeds: Why is my system looking for stuff from 2.4.19 when I'm using 2.4.18 (specifically modprobe emu10k1 is comeing up with that msg i just posted) |
21:22.23 | murble | is this parish leve? the people who are in charge of cuting the grass and wasting a tiny percentage of pepoples council tax? |
21:22.44 | jenson | I'm just gonna go feed my rabbit and hope i avoid a bad rat experince |
21:22.50 | murble | and who put up fucking stupif welcome to village foo with a silly fake gate in a layby? |
21:22.53 | Leeds | jenson: what does uname -a give you? |
21:23.16 | jenson | 2.4.19 |
21:23.19 | jenson | I'll BRB |
21:23.23 | dpash | murble: and ISDN lines etc yeah |
21:24.19 | murble | isdn lines for what? |
21:24.26 | dpash | exactly |
21:24.52 | Leeds | dpash: none of us know what you're on about |
21:25.37 | dpash | Leeds: our parish council is paying for an ISDN line |
21:25.43 | murble | Leeds: by nobody knows why i'm talking about all the time and i still jibber. |
21:25.52 | dpash | I don't know who is getting the binefit of this |
21:26.00 | murble | dpash: get them to buy you adsl or a leasedline. |
21:26.11 | murble | for a community wireless network or some other crap. |
21:26.13 | dpash | murble: ADSL is out of the question |
21:26.20 | dpash | murble: we have satellite |
21:26.34 | dpash | we also have a janet connection in the parish, but we can't use that |
21:27.55 | jenson | i'm back |
21:30.46 | Leeds | jenson: so tell me again... you're running 2.4.19 and it's trying to use a 2.4.19 module... what's the problem? |
21:31.11 | jenson | well, my mother is whinging that im meant to be burning her CDs so I better see if I can find my cdwriteer software discs |
21:31.19 | Leeds | cdrecord... |
21:31.24 | jenson | Leeds: im running 2.4.18, or at least i was |
21:31.31 | zachary | It's bed time for me, good night |
21:31.33 | Leeds | how do you know? |
21:32.12 | jenson | beca8se i was, until i went into setup and installed my swap (which wasnt installed for some reason) and now im in 2.4.19 |
21:32.58 | Leeds | I don't know what you were running... and I don't know what you did... but uname doesn't lie (well, almost never) |
21:33.06 | jenson | see this install on this box is the same but this is running 2.4.18 |
21:33.14 | jenson | i know what kernel i was running |
21:33.36 | Leeds | modprobe uses uname to decide which modules to load... |
21:34.24 | jenson | well Leeds i set it all up when it was running 2.4.18 and now its trying to load 2.4.18 things from 2.4.19 |

22:01.17 | Jenson | coz win refused to install the software so immresorting to console |
22:01.37 | Leeds | you need ide-scsi (for an IDE burner)... if you've got ide-cd in the kernel, you'd need to change your boot options and reboot (possibly rebuild the kernel first) |

22:07.52 | Jenson | thought so |
22:07.57 | Jenson | its coz im an idiot |
22:08.12 | Leeds | but slackware probably makes it easier for you to mess up, because it doesn't get in your way... it assumes you have a brain |
22:08.27 | Jenson | well yeh, and that might be a problem |
22:08.32 | Leeds | right |
22:09.07 | Jenson | if i handt had formatted debian off the system i wodultn have had thisnproblem |

22:27.46 | Clyphox | eye69: if you give up tell me.. |
22:28.45 | eye69 | Pb probably updated... |
