[22:19]<cejgje>hi, i've can't build the linux-source.2.6.17-5 from unstable on testing box, is this usual? anything i can do to help? i was using make-kpkg to build it
[22:20]<svnw>kronoz: why can't you?
[22:20]<cejgje>stew, there is a compilation error
[22:20]<cejgje>unfortunatly i closed the konsole it was running in, so i will have to reproduce the error with another compile so i'll ask again in a bit
[22:25]<zgzlyvyzvuz>Hi.
[22:25]<uszw1>Trying to update kernel from 2.6.8-2-686 to 2.6.8-3-686 and encountered errors. Please seee: http://pastebin.ca/124008
[22:26]<uszw1>Could it be that this new kernel may have already been installed?
[22:27]<wjfs>usr13: no. you press "Y"
[22:27]<uszw1>ok
[22:27]<uszw1> wols: so I have aborted the process?
[22:27]<cejgje>stew: this is how i'm compiling it
[22:27]<cejgje>http://pastebin.ca/124010
[22:27]<wjfs>usr13: then you do what that last paragraph said
[22:27]<wjfs>then install again
[22:28]<z2zjvdzg>wols: you mean .. press 'n'
[22:28]<wjfs>abrotman: I wanted to be politically correct
[22:28]<gdduzlxd>stew, wols: you were helping me earlier on probably as vern, and i just have one more problem which is killing me
[22:28]<wjfs>but n would work too, yes
[22:28]<gdduzlxd>abrotman too.
[22:28]<z2zjvdzg>nimurphy: i'll call a medic
[22:28]<wjfs>nimurphy: stop the flattery and ask your question instead
[22:29]<z2zjvdzg>flatulence?
[22:29]<vxnfjsv2uvfnz>kronoz: what's the error though ?
[22:29]<gdduzlxd>well i dunno if it's flattery, but anyway. my 2.4 etch install doesnt seem to have any make/gcc packages.
[22:29]<uszw1>I did as instructed: mv /lib/modules/2.6.8-3-686 /lib/modules/2.6.8-3-686.old
[22:29]<svnw>!b-e nimurphy
[22:29]<mlcr>nimurphy: Sounds like you need to apt-get install build-essential.
[22:29]<gdduzlxd>i need them to build my net driver (3c2000)
[22:30]<cejgje>thelostbutler: just reproducing it
[22:30]<uszw1>and successfully installed the new kernel.
[22:30]<uszw1>Thanks all
[22:30]<z2zjvdzg>!b-e nimurphy
[22:30]<mlcr>nimurphy: Sounds like you need to apt-get install build-essential.
[22:30]<z2zjvdzg>bah
[22:30]<gdduzlxd>apt-get installl build essential does nothing.
[22:30]<z2zjvdzg>nimurphy: build-essential .. see the -?
[22:30]<svnw>usr13: if you already had a 2.6.8-3 kernel isntall you should figure out why you are instead booting to an older 2.6.8-2 kernel
[22:30]<wjfs>that's cause you have typos galore in there
[22:30]<gdduzlxd>i don't have net access so apt-get doesnt have much to work with
[22:31]<gdduzlxd>sorry, yeah 'apt-get install build-essential', thats what i tried
[22:31]<gdduzlxd>told me it couldn't find the package
[22:31]<vxnfjsv2uvfnz>nimurphy: then how did you install/upgrade to etch ?
[22:31]<wjfs>nimurphy: how big is your debian CD (in MB)?
[22:32]<z2zjvdzg>mmm 8" floppy
[22:32]<gdduzlxd>6XX, its the first one
[22:32]<z2zjvdzg>nimurphy: do you have the ISO name handy ?
[22:32]<szgmzz6o>pls helps
[22:32]<z2zjvdzg>please ask
[22:33]<wrrsnw>say building packages with debian, where does dpkg put the package when it's built?
[22:33]<gdduzlxd>Debian GNU/Linux testing "Etch" - Official Snapshot i386 Binary-1 CD
[22:33]<wjfs>xcasex: nowhere. since dpkg doesn't build packages
[22:33]<wjfs>normally in the same directory you're in
[22:33]<svnw>xcasex: in ..
[22:34]<sdrrkrrn>hello... how do i set apache up to send mail ?
[22:34]<wrrsnw>thanks wols, if id've known you knew i'd have asked you know where ;)
[22:35]<gcuvvfnz>SmaaKage: what do you mean?
[22:35]<z2zjvdzg>wols: he would have asked you in the men's room ?
[22:36]<sdrrkrrn>so i can send mail from a homepage !
[22:36]<z2zjvdzg>that doesn't have much to do with apache
[22:36]<wjfs>yes, men's room is apt for that channel I guess
[22:36]<wjfs>channel we're both in
[22:36]<wjfs>SmaaKage: use a mailto: link. problem solved
