[00:00]<z2zzzzuf>Janus, is it ok ?
[00:00]<mufzgmnz>compu73rg33k: I'm using kde apps with no kde and arts installed, so I don't think that the artsd is required.
[00:00]<fycnwxjr>sly007: load dmcrypt
[00:01]<fycnwxjr>sly007: check google for info on dmcrypt and or loop-aes
[00:01]<pugcdhrv>argh! running out of space on / -.- should have given it 20GB or so :(

[00:02]<pugcdhrv>likewhoa, good idea (Y)
[00:02]<sfd006>likewhoa, no, I just want to create a loopback device with losetup
[00:03]<ppdzn>sly007: you can create the device using mknod /dev/loop0 b 7 0
[00:04]<sfd006>qfyre, thanks
[00:04]<sajvv__w>I need to sync the gentoo portage tree to a non-gentoo box via rsync - how can I do it?
[00:04]<fycnwxjr>sly007: just load 'loop' module it should create them for you
[00:04]<mufzgmnz>so no one with some kwnoledge about the amaroK problem I mentioned before?
[00:05]<acacac>Is it safe to run programs as usual while updating world (250 packages including Gcc) ? First full update in over a year.:P
[00:05]<ld>yup
[00:06]<acacac>thanks.
[00:06]<fycnwxjr>jkjkjk: you are supposed to turn the lights out and wait under your blanket while it compiles GCC
[00:06]<sfd006>likewhoa, thanks
[00:06]<fycnwxjr>sly007: np
[00:07]<kfjxugv>When doing this: "cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/<kernel-version>" should I replace kernel version with "
[00:07]<kfjxugv>linux-2.6.16-gentoo-r7
[00:07]<acacac>likewhoa, i am
[00:07]<sfd006>likewhoa, how to I create dev/md entries now :) (mkraid: cannot determine md version: no MD device file in /dev, despite the fact I loaded dm_mod)
[00:07]<acacac>in a moment anyways
[00:07]<snzvrw>Hey, can someone tell me the command to remove directories and it's contents if its older then 5 hours (mtime)?
[00:07]<dzzazjsjpv>so i installed wireless-tools and lspci detects my wireless device.. whats the next step?
[00:07]<nzycf>please penguin God, let rl0 work!
[00:07]<fycnwxjr>Servax: use find with -exec
[00:07]<jrgus>Klohunt: generally people use kernel-2.6.xxx-gentoo-rx
[00:08]<jrgus>with the x's being the version numbers
[00:08]<jrgus>but...it really doesn't matter
[00:08]<snzvrw>likewhoa: Yeah, but I only figured out how to do it with dates.. How can I make it hours?
[00:08]<jrgus>as long as in the grub.conf (or lilo config) you use the correct file name
[00:08]<kfjxugv>Thanks Janus
[00:08]<fycnwxjr>Servax: not with mtime you can't
[00:08]<sfd006>qfyre, how do I create dev/md entries now :) (mkraid: cannot determine md version: no MD device file in /dev, despite the fact I loaded dm_mod)
[00:08]<jrgus>you can name the kernel gentooiscool if you want...as long as the grub.conf is linked to gentooiscool it will work
[00:08]<snzvrw>likewhoa: So we can only do it days wise right?
[00:09]<fycnwxjr>Servax: only atime,ctime
[00:09]<kfjxugv>Janus: I see
[00:09]<fycnwxjr>Servax: use amin for minutes
[00:09]<acacac>libstdc++ error starting mplayer ... that has to be gcc problem right?
[00:10]<fycnwxjr>jkjkjk: did you recently upgrade gcc?
[00:10]<acacac>likewhoa, a second ago
[00:10]<snzvrw>likewhoa: Whats a find command where I can make it only check folders, and not files itself? I want it so if it senses the folder is older then x days it will rum rm -dfr foldername
[00:10]<fycnwxjr>jkjkjk: you switch compilers?
[00:10]<fycnwxjr>Servax: find -type d
[00:11]<ppdzn>sly007: i just used mdadm ...
[00:11]<acacac>likewhoa, nope still 200 packages left in emerge world
[00:11]<xfyg2gzdrg>Can someone give me a hand? I'm having nightmarish printer problems: http://pastebin.com/743625
[00:11]<snzvrw>likewhoa: So find -type d '/backup/rsync' -mtime +3 -exec rm -dfr {} \; would be correct?
[00:12]<snzvrw>likewhoa: For three days
[00:12]<sulnz_czv_fzjr>servax - php deletes its session data through cron, like this: find /var/lib/php4/ -type f -cmin +$(/usr/lib/php4/maxlifetime) -print0 | xargs -r -0 rm
[00:12]<ppdzn>sly007: but you could use mknod /dev/md0 b 9 0 ...
[00:12]<xjffjwsjuf>jkjkjk, any chance your old gcc was 3.3 ?
[00:12]<acacac>hollowsoul, No 3.4
[00:12]<fycnwxjr>Servax: don't need to specify folder name
[00:13]<dzzazjsjpv>someone want to help me with wireless configuration, i have read every guid out there.. and cant seem to get it to work :(
[00:13]<fycnwxjr>Servax: path goes first before anything
[00:13]<snzvrw>likewhoa: I am going to have this running on cron, to only delete files in that directory over x days, its the backups basically..
[00:13]<fycnwxjr>Servax: brb phone
[00:13]<snzvrw>likewhoa: Alright
[00:15]<acacac>figured it out now.. glibc is emerging thats probably why.
[00:15]<fuyaaau_>marcrosoft: what's your problem?
[00:16]<xfyg2gzdrg>Looks like the renderer is dying?
[00:16]<dn_xnzn> should there be any problems assigning the same mouse device i.e. /dev/psaux to be accessed by more than just X, say gmp too ?
[00:16]<xfyg2gzdrg>And since the renderer dies, the job does. But why is the renderer dying?
[00:16]<dn_xnzn>s/gmp/gpm/
[00:17]<dzzazjsjpv>quicoju_, I dont see it when i type ifconfig, or iwconfig
[00:17]<dzzazjsjpv>quicoju_, but it is listed when i type lspci
[00:17]<fycnwxjr>Servax: find /src/ -type d -mtime +3 -exec rm -rvf '{}' \;
[00:17]<xfyg2gzdrg>With code 255?
[00:17]<fuyaaau_>marcrosoft: did you install the driver already
[00:17]<fuyaaau_>?
[00:17]<dzzazjsjpv>quicoju_, i added drivers in the kernel
[00:17]<dzzazjsjpv>quicoju_, its a linksys wmp54g
[00:17]<dn_xnzn>especially when X ist shut down but gpm remaining active ?
[00:18]<snzvrw>likewhoa: What would that do, delete anything in /src/ over 3 days old?
[00:18]<fycnwxjr>Servax: yea
[00:18]<hcf>might anyone be able to explain to me why i had to link /usr/lib64/X11/xdm/Xsession to /usr/X11/xdm/Xsession and reinstall xdm before my xdm would work..? am i forgetting a package or a configure setting or...?
[00:19]<acacac>I may be wrong here but after emerging world with gcc as one of the packages do you not have to repeat the process straight after using new gcc version
[00:19]<snzvrw>likewhoa: Would it delete /src/ itself, I just ran a common simular and it deleted /backup/rsync itself, I ran: find '/backup/rsync' -type d -maxdepth 0 -mmin +1 -exec ls -l {} \;
[00:19]<dzzazjsjpv>quicoju_, I could never get ndiswrapper module to load
[00:20]<snzvrw>likewhoa: Except, with rm -dfr
[00:20]<fuyaaau_>marcrosoft: ok, are you using a ndiswrapper or a native linux driver?
[00:20]<mgyvn>is there a way to constantly run a program (at a defined interval) from the cli? kinda like tailing a log file w/ the -f flag
[00:20]<xfyg2gzdrg>dnite, cron?
[00:20]<prsdnyac>dnite: watch
[00:20]<ppdzn>hlieberman: i had problems with ghostscript-esp dying, switching to ghostscript-gnu fixed the problem ...
[00:20]<fycnwxjr>Servax: do mindepth 1
[00:20]<dn_xnzn>dnite: cron or at() with selfmade script?
[00:21]<fuyaaau_>marcrosoft: for ndiswrapper you need the win driver
[00:21]<ffur_g_ffrd>dnite> while true; do <command>; sleep <secs>; done
[00:21]<snzvrw>likewhoa: And get rid of maxdepth?
