[18:37]<dtgjzd>+like its an executable
[18:37]<asvpyfjv>-dystopianray: I'll have to remember that. Im just off a fresh install so I dont have Xorg or KDE yet
[18:37]<vzyppym_hugvnz>+DTGorm: yep. if you have squashfs support in your kernel you can mount it
[18:37]<frgscrlnv>-Triffid_Hunter ahh that seems to work. what kernel might you be running the .16 ?
[18:37]<dtgjzd>+i have the 2006.0 iso opened up in windows, heh, not sure if i can even read it lol
[18:37]<vzyppym_hugvnz>+Fanskapet: yep
[18:37]<frgscrlnv>-okok
[18:37]<frgscrlnv>-it seems to work real crappy on my system
[18:37]<frgscrlnv>-i couldn't mount my hdb1 partition
[18:37]<vzyppym_hugvnz>+DTGorm: looking at filesystems' on-disk data rarely tells you anything useful
[18:38]<frgscrlnv>-said it was busy or allready mounted
[18:38]<dtgjzd>+i was trying to get to the conf files so when i put in the 2006.0, it will load with my custom configuration
[18:38]<vzyppym_hugvnz>+Fanskapet: works perfectly for me
[18:38]<vzyppym_hugvnz>+Fanskapet: ah i've seen hald do that a lot
[18:38]<frgscrlnv>-hald?
[18:39]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cstPilot: http://pastebin.com/728238
[18:40]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cstPilot: you'll need to have $ xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap run everytime you login, although some desktop environments will do it by default, then you can map the keys to various actions
[18:40]<asvpyfjv>-dystopianray: thanks
[18:40]<frgscrlnv>-Triffid_Hunter, agh i still only got kernel-config-2.4 kernel-config-2.6 in my /usr/share/genkernel/x86/
[18:40]<asvpyfjv>-dystopianray: only voldn, volup, and mute? The other keys dont work?
[18:40]<rxrjsyvn_>+hey. I think my harddrive may be dying =/
[18:40]<vzyppym_hugvnz>+Fanskapet: genkernel eh.. sounds dangerous
[18:41]<rxrjsyvn_>+SMART has this to say:
[18:41]<rxrjsyvn_>+ 1 Raw_Read_Error_Rate 0x000f 060 057 006 Pre-fail Always - 64613852
[18:41]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cstPilot: you can map their keycodes to whatever you want, I just havne't bothered :p
[18:41]<rxrjsyvn_>+ 7 Seek_Error_Rate 0x000f 089 060 030 Pre-fail Always - 839835608
[18:41]<rxrjsyvn_>+195 Hardware_ECC_Recovered 0x001a 060 057 000 Old_age Always - 64613852
[18:41]<frgscrlnv>-Triffid_Hunter never got the manual kernel to work nicely
[18:41]<grrf>-does gentoo have a utility to allow me to change a root password using a boot disc?
[18:41]<frgscrlnv>-although haven't tried on this new motherboard
[18:41]<rxrjsyvn_>+ 5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct 0x0033 100 100 036 Pre-fail Always - 0
[18:41]<asvpyfjv>-dystopianray: oh ok
[18:41]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cstPilot: xev can be used to find the keycodes of the different keys
[18:41]<czsvzjgnvns>+i dropped window decorations on one eterm window (this one) and lost decoration on all eterm windows. no idea how to get it back. suggestions
[18:41]<rxrjsyvn_>+also, I've tried running smartctl -t long, and have got this:
[18:41]<rxrjsyvn_>+# 1 Extended offline Completed: read failure 60% 16290 109902851
[18:41]<vzyppym_hugvnz>+Fanskapet: i've never had time to argue with someone else's idea of how it should be done ;)
[18:42]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cstPilot: some of hte wierder keys that have fn+blah don't have a keycode mapped to their scancode, so you'll see an error message in your logs and you'll have to map them to a keycode
[18:43]<grrf>-what's the utility to change a root password using a boot disc? it's just when i installed gentoo i set a password and it's not accepting it when i need to log in, wondered if someone could help me
[18:43]<rxrjsyvn_>+full output is in here: http://sh.nu/p/1785
[18:43]<rxrjsyvn_>+what do you guys thing?
[18:43]<rxrjsyvn_>+njal: chroot in and use "passwd"
[18:43]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cstPilot: keycodes 162 = play/pase, 144 = back, 153 = forward, 164 = stop, map them to a keysymbol, and then if you use kde you can use dcop calls to make them work with various applications
[18:44]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+njal: chroot in and run passwd
[18:44]<asvpyfjv>-dystopianray: ok
[18:44]<rxrjsyvn_>+cstPilot: If you run openbox, you can do it through there too.
[18:44]<rrvrrrrfj>+i have a crazy problem, when i emerge xchat or mozilla-firefox or anything, it doesnt show in kde
[18:44]<rxrjsyvn_>+cstPilot: In fact, any WM worth it's salt should be able to do this.
[18:44]<asvpyfjv>-dystopianray: I created the files you pastebin'ed to me. What would be next?
[18:45]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cstPilot: make sure the lid.sh file has execute permissions
[18:45]<asvpyfjv>-chaosite_: Im thinking of getting KDE then Fluxbox
[18:45]<sgrdfn>+how do I install swf for Opera 8.54 running on gentoo?
[18:45]<asvpyfjv>-dystopianray: ok
[18:45]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cstPilot: then add acpid to to the default runlevel, and then start it
[18:45]<sgrdfn>+is it possible?
[18:45]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cstPilot: then it should turn the monitor back on when you close/open the lid
[18:45]<grrf>-um its proving a little more problematic as first though
[18:45]<rxrjsyvn_>+snayle: I think "emerge netscape-flash" should handle this for you ... ?
[18:46]<rxrjsyvn_>+snayle: maybe not though
[18:46]<rxrjsyvn_>+snayle: don't recall the specifics
[18:46]<rrvrrrrfj>+iv never had this problem before
[18:46]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+charles`: it should, if opera can handle netscape plugins
[18:46]<asvpyfjv>-dystopianray: how do I run it? Just # acpid ?
[18:46]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+woops wrong person
[18:46]<rrllm_rmg>+morn...Can someone explain in layman's terms what a HUP signal is?
[18:46]<sgrdfn>+k Ill check that out
[18:46]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cstPilot: # /etc/init.d/acpid
[18:46]<rxrjsyvn_>+cappy_cdn: Hang up.
[18:46]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+Cap1ain: hang up
[18:46]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+woops wrong person again :S
[18:47]<rrllm_rmg>+thanx...but more detail?
[18:47]<rxrjsyvn_>+dystopianray: xchat tabcompletion sucks.
[18:47]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cappy_cdn: it usually forces the process to reread it's config
[18:47]<rxrjsyvn_>+dystopianray: go irssi =)
[18:47]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+lol
[18:47]<grrf>-chroot /mnt/gentoo failed
[18:47]<rrllm_rmg>+dystopianray: k
[18:47]<asvpyfjv>-dystopianray: what options do I put in?
[18:47]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+njal: # chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
[18:47]<grrf>-tried it
[18:47]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cstPilot: oh, give it the 'start' argument
[18:47]<rrllm_rmg>+dystopianray: so passing a NOHUP just forces process to not do that?
[18:47]<asvpyfjv>-dystopianray: and when it's running, show it appear in lsmod?
[18:47]<grrf>-i have gentoo installed, but can't log in, figure if i reset the passsword it should work
[18:48]<rrvrrrrfj>+i have a crazy problem, when i emerge xchat or mozilla-firefox or anything, it doesnt show in kde
[18:48]<asvpyfjv>-should* not show
[18:48]<dtgjzd>+I try to copy /proc/mounts to /etc/mtab using grep per the handbook, but when i do, it says grep: /proc/mounts: No such file or directory ... now why would it not exist if the handbook is telling me to copy it over
[18:48]<dtgjzd>+at what point is the /proc/mounts created?
[18:48]<grrf>-chrooting didn't work using that command
[18:48]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cstPilot: no it's not a module, it's a daemon
[18:48]<zjznztt>+njal, boot the livecd, mount and chroot, then set a password with passwd
[18:48]<rxrjsyvn_>+cappy_cdn: try this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIGHUP
[18:48]<asvpyfjv>-how do I list daemons?
[18:48]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cstPilot: ps ?
[18:48]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cstPilot: # /etc/init.d/acpid status
[18:48]<mdsvjldzgzzd>+cstPilot: first time gentoo user?
[18:48]<fzgsxpzygag>+hmm i wanna install KDE.. but why is kde masked with ~ testing.. the 3.5.2 in portage?..
[18:48]<rrllm_rmg>+chaosite_: k thx
[18:49]<asvpyfjv>-dystopianray: yes.
[18:49]<asvpyfjv>-dystopianray: status stopped
