[00:00]<n2pn>rem7: whatever, the kernel currently running does not include smbfs so recheck all steps
[00:00]<zzaxyvys>and it says I should run libtoolize --copy --force to fix the package, which fixes the symptom for the package, but how do I fix the root cause?
[00:00]<znd6>ebfe: ok
[00:00]<sxwjuaxc>HDLC: I see
[00:00]<sxwjuaxc>HDLC: thanks!
[00:00]<2zyrgw>ok last time: you do not need smbfs kernel support to mount windows shares. cifs is for win2k and up... smbfs is for win98 workgroup networking
[00:01]<znd6>ebfe: is that to check the current kernel configuration? zcat /proc/config.gz
[00:01]<n2pn>the kernel fills /proc/config.gz with the current .config
[00:01]<vdfnz-wdfyn>Fieldy, same kind of hope that my Beatles discography torrent will finish this year :(
[00:01]<n2pn>its gzipped so you use zcat instead of cat
[00:02]<n2pn>Beatles discography torrent ?
[00:02]<znd6>ebfe: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2459447 Sep 15 14:01 kernel-2.6.17-gentoo-r8
[00:02]<vdfnz-wdfyn>ebfe, yessir
[00:02]<znd6>ebfe: im gonna reboot, it should work now ;)
[00:02]<vdfnz-wdfyn>rem7, -r8? ~x86?
[00:02]<znd6>tyler-wylie: -r8 ~amd64
[00:02]<vdfnz-wdfyn>ah
[00:03]<znd6>brb
[00:03]<vdfnz-wdfyn>was about to say I just updated my kernel today to -r7 and if there was a new one i'd be pissed
[00:03]<znd6>lol
[00:06]<vdfnz-wdfyn><crickets>
[00:06]<vdfnz-wdfyn>It's Friday afternoon where is everyone?
[00:06]<zgvzzus>damn thing
[00:06]<vdfnz-wdfyn>for us USA'ers
[00:06]<znd6>ebfe: its working. thanks, i'm glad it was something stupid like that, lol
[00:06]<znd6>ebfe: thanks
[00:06]<n2pn>np
[00:07]<rmw>Hi, I have a question. I'm trying to write a script that will look at the output of /sbin/ifconfig, and extract the interface information (eth0, lo) out of it. Any idea what utility I can pipe to
[00:07]<vdfnz-wdfyn>YW ef
[00:07]<vdfnz-wdfyn>adw, grep?
[00:07]<_aws_>adw, sed? awk?
[00:07]<znd6>another quesiton... when the machine is booting up I get all the text screwed up until it changes to UTF-8 or something like that... is there a way to fix that?
[00:07]<_aws_>adw, all of the above?
[00:07]<rmw>heheh
[00:08]<pygrf2nvr_>How do I log output from a command? >> omits the error output, and that I need.
[00:08]<2zyrgw>adw: i hope you are not doing that for an iptables script? best to make your rules with respect to the iface as opoosed to the ip.
[00:08]<2zyrgw>adw: at any rate, look into cut
[00:08]<rmw>brianw: no, it's not for iptables... I'm just trying to learn more about scripting
[00:09]<rmw>ok, thanks.
[00:09]<_aws_>finalbeta, &> or &>>
[00:09]<_aws_>finalbeta, that'll grab stdout and stderr
[00:09]<_aws_>finalbeta, nam bash for more info
[00:09]<_aws_>man
[00:09]<2zyrgw>i like nam better :)
[00:10]<_aws_>:)
[00:10]<lyag>I'm doing a stage1 (advised by #gentoo-hardened) cause i'm doing.. hardened offcourse. Now i have to copy the timezone.. there is no /usr/share/zoneinfo =)
[00:10]<lyag>Oh nevermind :P
[00:10]<2zyrgw>wow, my upload on my home connection went up from ~40KB/s to ~60KB/s . Nice!
[00:11]<pygrf2nvr_>_AxS_, ok thnx. I also know it should be possible to log the whole session to a file, but google doesn't help me, to many rubbish
[00:11]<nsxrrsn>i'm following some instructions to set something up on gentoo and i've been told to install ipsec-tools and iproute, i was able to find ipsec-tools in portage but where can i find iproute?
[00:11]<vysy>is there a good list of wireless laptop cards for linux?
[00:11]<_aws_>finalbeta, session of what?
[00:12]<pygrf2nvr_>_AxS_, shell session. Whatever you type and outputs to a shell.
[00:12]<rjmderll>doesnt firefox work with fluxbox?
[00:12]<myffyrrn>codyzapp, it does.
[00:12]<_aws_>finalbeta, OH. no dont use &> for that.. use screen and set it to log
[00:12]<pygrf2nvr_>thnx
[00:14]<vdfnz-wdfyn>say something
[00:15]<lynmnvs>how do i tell emerge not to install any xorg11 stuff?
[00:15]<myffyrrn>Set a useflag that says -x11 I think
[00:15]<pzjsv2uzg>pizdets, unmerge it
[00:15]<dzzvdddz>how do I recompile my kernel? do I have to delete the old one first?
[00:15]<pzjsv2uzg>pizdets, or goto your keywords and have it =yourcurrentversionofx11
[00:15]<pyguwprgq007>pizdets: put -X in your use flags
[00:16]<myffyrrn>-X ... sorry.
[00:16]<_aws_>martyyyr, nope you dont..
[00:16]<_aws_>mzbot, gentoo martyyyr kernel install
[00:16]<de2jv>martyyyr: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/hardened/rsbac/quickstart.xml
[00:16]<_aws_>erg, ignore that
[00:16]<myffyrrn>frostburn, that won't help, will it? It will just remerge it once you try to emerge something that can use X ?
[00:16]<2f1u>Holy shite that's a long user list
[00:16]<dzzvdddz>can I just go back a few pages in the manual, and redo everything starting from the menuconfig thing?
[00:17]<pzjsv2uzg>MilligaN, just copy your current version into your keywords and it wont update
[00:17]<_aws_>martyyyr, pretty much yeah.. try this too: http://wwwredesign.gentoo.org/doc/en/kernel-upgrade.xml
[00:18]<dzzvdddz>ok, thanks
[00:18]<jfznzn0w>hi all, alsa is not producing any sound unless I restart my sound manually
[00:19]<sydavwjzc>how long does it work for before you have to restart it?
[00:19]<pwggrw>Hey guys, since there is no working e_modules ebuild I wanted to edit the ebuild, but there's nothing in it that looks relevant besides "ECVS_MODULE="e_modules"" -- what does this do?
[00:19]<jfznzn0w>ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:1b.0[A] -> GSI 21 (level, low -> IRQ 20 is what I am getting
[00:19]<jfznzn0w>it doesnt
[00:19]<jfznzn0w>its a dell inspiron 6400
[00:20]<lynmnvs>geez, to emerge bitchx i need to compile like 33 things
[00:20]<jfznzn0w>then it tells me its switching to single_cmd mode
[00:21]<jdgzaggv>I need /dev/pts/* to be a+rw so I can use screen, but even if I chmod it, it won't stay like that
[00:21]<jdgzaggv>is there an other way to make sure it keeps a+rw ?
[00:21]<rlrraj2s>pizdets, try naim if you want it small and simple (and don't need to dl stuff over irc)
[00:22]<azvym>I'm tryint to mount my camera - but "where" is the camera-device? dmesg says something like this when i plug it in: "Sep 16 01:21:19 localhost usb 1-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5"
[00:22]<jfznzn0w>gonna try to compile in-kernel and see what it does
[00:23]<rlrraj2s>Arvid, looks to me your cam isn't detected as a disk. (maybe some camera setting)
[00:23]<rlrraj2s>Arvid, or if you can't get it to mount use gphoto2 and,or gtkam
[00:23]<azvym>jpjacobs: should it be detected as a disk?
[00:24]<azvym>jpjacobs: no - my question is. how do i find out the "path" to it. is it /dev/foo or /dev/bar
[00:24]<sydavwjzc>Arvid: it doesn't say anything about sda or sga ?
[00:24]<sydavwjzc>Arvid: it's probably sda1 unless you aready have a scsi/sata drive
[00:25]<wggjvgzzraymg>what's sga for?
[00:26]<rlrraj2s>Arvid, there is no device... that's the problem, it doesn't get detected as a block-device so you can't mount it (uless you could change some camera setting, like using it's native aplication, or just the window$ filemanager)
[00:26]<jnff-o-fysxy>xenoterracide: scsi generic device.
[00:26]<jnff-o-fysxy>xenoterracide: means it's controled by a user space app.
[00:26]<fr>hello, im trying to install gentoo, im doing everything as described in the manual, but im getting "'profiles/arch.list' is empty or not available. Empty portage tree?"
[00:27]<jnff-o-fysxy>lg : emerge --sync ? set a profile ?
