[00:00]<2zyrgw>chaosite: but not all apps support it.
[00:00]<rxrjsyvn>sithy: and I think if you use aoss all is well
[00:00]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>new flash should be alsa
[00:00]<2zyrgw>chaosite: i tried it with pokerstars, and it does not work
[00:00]<m9m0>YEAH IT WORKS. i wont do suicide! at least not tonight....
[00:00]<ggmmdsgrrjjg>d4d0, For logical partitions, two bloacks are written at the start of the logical partition
[00:00]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>should mplayer use ALSA?
[00:00]<m9m0>thanks @ all
[00:00]<2zyrgw>Shirakawasuna: yup
[00:00]<znysyj>d4d0: :)
[00:00]<rxrjsyvn>d4d0: suicide is for wimps. Real men commit sepuku
[00:00]<2zyrgw>d4d0: no problem
[00:00]<ggmmdsgrrjjg>d4d0, :0
[00:00]<m9m0>chaosite: lol
[00:01]<cxrgdrg>brianw, have you been able to get fulltilt poker working under wine?
[00:01]<m9m0>oh man it scared the hell out of me.
[00:01]<znysyj>khanman: appdb.winehq.org
[00:01]<m9m0>more than 4 years collecting mp3
[00:01]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>"no available audio device" from mplayer
[00:01]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>when amarok is paused
[00:01]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>brianw: ^
[00:01]<rxrjsyvn>brianw: when you say apps, you mean "windows apps operated through wine" or "apps that use OSS"?
[00:02]<znysyj>d4d0: there's this invention they have nowadays called burners
[00:02]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>remember: when commiting sepuku you must make no sound, otherwise beheading is necessary
[00:02]<m9m0>Shirakawasuna: amarok should be closed to NOT use your audio device afaik
[00:02]<rxrjsyvn>brianw: if it is the former, i don't think that they even care about alsa existing.. You just use winecfg and tell it to use alsa and they're happy
[00:02]<m9m0>reisio: the problem is, they intervented something else back in days ($$$)
[00:02]<m9m0>invented*
[00:03]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>I thought that was the point of dmix - you could have multiple programs accessing the sound card
[00:03]<m9m0>im out. thanks again!
[00:03]<pwggrw>Shirakawasuna: If you've got $40 buy a decent soundcard and you won't have to mess with it.
[00:04]<awnsjdn-jq000>ok thats nuts - I am emerging gnome-light and runnign ut2004-ded at the same tiem, good stuff
[00:04]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>psh
[00:04]<cxrgdrg>reisio, tnx mate....never was able to get it to work under wine...but it is listed..guess ill try again
[00:04]<awnsjdn-jq000>now I have to get dovecot working properly
[00:04]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>that's with the presumption that I have $40
[00:04]<pwggrw>Shirakawasuna: "If you've got $40"
[00:05]<rxrjsyvn>IceD^: $? I believe? Or maybe $!
[00:05]<rjpmpysx_>$? = return code of last command
[00:05]<pwggrw>Shirakawasuna: I've dealed without hardware mixing for so long. I hated it. I bought an Audigy 2 for $35 + $4 shipping and now I can run all the junk I need.
[00:05]<rjpmpysx_>$! = pid of last forked process
[00:05]<rxrjsyvn>and UID != PID
[00:06]<rjpmpysx_>chaosite: :)
[00:06]<rxrjsyvn>IceD^: you want "id -u"
[00:06]<rxrjsyvn>IceD^: "id -un" if you want the name and not the number, you can figure the rest for yourself =)
[00:07]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>Phenax: hey, where'd you get that?
[00:07]<rxrjsyvn>Shirakawasuna: Audigy2s are dirt cheap now, especially the low-end versions without all the fancy connectors
[00:08]<rxrjsyvn>Shirakawasuna: its a great card really
[00:08]<pwggrw>Shirakawasuna: Some of the Audigy 2's are cheapo versions that don't use emu10k1, try to find a model that has emu10k1 (USe Google). I bought it off of some Yahoo! shop or something, I found it off Google sadly.
[00:08]<ggjejge>Anyone know why my KALARM isn't beeping when the alarm is set?
[00:08]<pwggrw>Shirakawasuna: None of my regular store had the emu10k1 version
[00:09]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>Phenax: PC card or USB?
[00:09]<pwggrw>Shirakawasuna: PCI
[00:09]<pwggrw>Shirakawasuna: I don't think they come in USB.
[00:09]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>ah, we're talking laptop here
[00:09]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>of course they come in USB
[00:09]<ggjejge>How can I change the volume of my PC speaker?
[00:09]<rxrjsyvn>Shirakawasuna: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16829102003
[00:09]<pwggrw>Shirakawasuna: If you only want two sound sources you can get those headphones with a build-in soundcard.
[00:09]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>Neozonz: alsamixer
[00:09]<pwggrw>Shirakawasuna: I've never seen them in USB :/
[00:09]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>Phenax: they've been around for a while
[00:09]<_aws_>Neozonz, solder a resistor onto the wire?
[00:09]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>Phenax: quite cool, actually - but large
[00:10]<rxrjsyvn>Shirakawasuna: the usb version is named "extigy"
[00:10]<_aws_>Shirakawasuna, for PC Speaker?
[00:10]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>you can control all the volume you hopefully need w/ alsamixer
[00:10]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>if the speakers don't have a volume control it'd be silly to spend money on one
[00:10]<rxrjsyvn>Shirakawasuna: PC speaker
[00:10]<rxrjsyvn>Shirakawasuna: as in, annoying beeping thing
[00:11]<_aws_>Shirakawasuna, i think hes taking about the internal speaker that beeps when you power up
[00:11]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>ah
[00:11]<_aws_>Shirakawasuna, ie, not attached to a soundcard
[00:11]<ggjejge>_AxS_: wtf?
[00:11]<sxyzrcrwrsugr>you pummel it
[00:11]<rxrjsyvn><ellen feiss>bleep bleep bleep bleep bleep</elenn>
[00:11]<_aws_>Neozonz, no? are you talking about a soundcard-controlled speaker?
[00:11]<ggjejge>Anyone know why my kalarm is not beeping? Speaker volume is at 100%
[00:12]<pwggrw>Neozonz: Probably because you didn't enable PC Speaker beep in kernel
[00:12]<ggjejge>zomg!
[00:12]<ggjejge>no way!
[00:12]<ggjejge>there was that option
[00:12]<fyznfjf>hi, my HD is making some strange noises and the PC hangs. I'd like to backup my HD contents on a new HD, I have a reiserfs 15 GB partition, with about 5 GB of data. Do you suggest me to use "dd" or to boot with a livecd, create another reiserfs, and just "cp /mnt/oldpartition/* /mnt/newpartition" ?
[00:12]<axy>for openssh i see the use flag chroot how does that affect ssh?
[00:12]<axy>effect*
[00:12]<fyznfjf>My target partition is only of 12 GB, so I'm not sure I can do an "image"
[00:12]<murgn2>'sup
[00:13]<ggjejge>Phenax: if I make menuconfig, it will recompile my kernel right, but will it put it in /boot automatically?
[00:13]<rxrjsyvn>firepol: A. Describe the noises. B. Anything interesting in dmesg when it happens? C. You want dd_rescue
[00:13]<_aws_>there was a way back in the win3.1 days to actually use the pc speaker as a sound device (like a soundcard) -- is there a kernel/alsa driver for that?
[00:13]<pwggrw>Neozonz: No, either manually copy it or use make install
[00:13]<ggjejge>make install?
[00:13]<pwggrw>Neozonz: And compile it with 'make && make modules_install'
[00:13]<dzdysvnz>hey. is there anyone here who knows bunch about dmraid?
[00:13]<pwggrw>Neozonz: Read the docs on kernel
[00:13]<ggjejge>k
[00:13]<fyznfjf>chaosite: noises like, hik, hik hik hik
[00:13]<ggjejge>thanky
[00:14]<rxrjsyvn>firepol: clicking?
[00:14]<pwggrw>firepol: That generally means that it's dead/dying
