[19:47] i think it is something in the kernel version. it is so old and missing so many packages. [19:47] such as? [19:47] our older slack boxes work fine. [19:47] well it is kernel 2.6.18-164 el5 [19:47] lotec, what's wrong with your program? [19:48] a govt contract is in the way :) [19:48] heh [19:48] nachox. trying to get a atheros card to run in AP mode [19:48] it starts up. says it is running. but it is not broadcasting. [19:48] lotec, and? what's wrong? why do you think you need strace? [19:48] i just need some way to see what is going on [19:48] nothing that works in user space will help you there [19:48] i am getting no debug info [19:49] i am running madwifi trunk and current hostapd [19:50] sorry i cannot point to anything more constructive than what not to use [19:50] this is redhat by the way. for a contract we have at work. kernel is outdated [19:50] forget about gdb and strace [19:50] the biggest problem is the kernel i think. 2.6.18-164 el5 is what 3 years old now? [19:51] hmm, that's a redhat? [19:51] besides the updates redhat has added. in our old slack box dont even need hostapd. got a script that does it all [19:51] RHEL patches make the kernel a lot newer than the version actually says. [19:51] now tell him the good part [19:51] that you cant add pkgs and why [19:51] veritos, meaning what? [19:51] they only fix security issues [19:52] veritos. well actually it is updated to an extent to 2.6.23 but missing alot of newer packages in 2.6.23 [19:52] by packages, he means module parts [19:52] it is a government contract. we can not add pkg as they use redhat support. if we do that we have to maintain a kernel for them [19:52] Not saying that it's a good idea. [19:52] missing libnl 1.1 [19:53] Red Hat makes multilib hellish too. [19:53] that has been out since 2.6.37? [19:53] lotec, i also think it is a bad idea to replace the kernel [19:53] erm 27 [19:54] does madwifi have to link against the current running kernel? [19:54] nachox, it is a bad idea i agree, but getting a wifi card to run in ap on a pre .27 kernel is ruff. expecially with Wep/wap/eap-tls support [19:54] probably, it needs to talk to the hardware [19:54] lotec, why the hell would you be running an ap with that? it is a bad idea to begin with [19:54] yeah, but if has the kernel source, he could build it on a machine with all the useful goodies [19:55] Necos: it seamed to insall fine today. no errors. not saying there is not something wrong as there has to be. but i have to find a way to run debug [19:55] *if he has [19:55] nachox, have to, in the contract. [19:55] lotec recompile src package with -g -ggdb -lSegFault added to CFLAGS [19:55] i tried to convence them to just buy a friggin AP and stick it in there [19:55] lotec, that's a very fun problem to solve :) [19:56] lotec, the contract says you have to use a linux with redhat as the ap? buy a damn cisco ap and be done with it [19:56] Necos: i have been beating my head on a wall for a month. started by they wanted to use USB well that did not even come close to working [19:56] lotec check spelling of /lib/libSeg[fF]ault [19:56] nachox: my company competes with cisco [19:56] Quiznos, the problem is most likely the driver, nothing he can do in user space will do [19:56] k [19:56] lotec, now THAT is interesting... you guys are a networking company?

[19:58] so anyways. trying to solve this problem, running hostapd -dd hostapd.conf starts the interface but no broadcast [19:59] nachox el5 is the newest RedHat [19:59] as with everything gov related, they have the versions locked [19:59] lotec, and it runs with that old kernel? i think there is a 5.2 these days that uses something newer, isnt it? [19:59] at least the newest we can use. i am sure when Redhat decides to release el6 it will be fine but jebus [20:00] lotec `broadcast' is a sbin/ifconfig flag, did you chk that? [20:00] nachox; the kernel is patched. up to about 2.6.23 but missing alot [20:00] i thnk [20:00] Quiznos: hostapd is what starts that in this case. [20:00] ah, lovely [20:01] yea but ifconfig might be able to nudge card [20:01] i'm really stuck, so i have been bugging Quiznos for a few days. just trying to get other ideas [20:01] just since yesterday [20:01] adamk_ (n=adamk@unaffiliated/adamk) left irc: "Leaving" [20:01] Quiznos. i actually tried to just get it running in AP mode with iwconfig. same problem [20:01] k [20:01] it has to be missing something.

[20:09] then there is nothing else to test lotec [20:09] if i could do that, it would be easy :D [20:09] nachox: that is not an answer, it has to work one way or the other [20:10] lotec, yes, it is, you'll need to mantain your own kernel till redhat updates it's own and fixes your bug [20:10] i would roll back to a Prism2 mini-pci card if they had support for wep/wap eap-tls but it is not [20:10] if you have a contract with them, tell them what you've found out [20:10] naxhox: i have tried that route. and i was told to find another route. [20:11] i even said, hey lets just put a damn wifi router in it. [20:11] that will not work for the security testing we have to pass, as it add a new OS to the bundle [20:11] i jsut really do not know what else to do [20:12] lotec: joining the convo late, sorry if this was already said, but I've gotten prism2 pcmcia cards working with wep/wpa eap-tls just fine [20:12] lotec, your only option is to make it work with redhat without modifying the kernel? [20:12] yea pcmcia will not work, [20:12] has to be mini-pci based [20:12] lotec: ah, ok ... sorry [20:13] usb?

Is it possible the stoopid port-0 DCC exploit took down my crappy linksys router, then? [23:34] nyRednek: I was in th emiddle of typing out my explanation anyway lol [23:35] i guess [23:35] Urchlay: yep [23:35] Urchlay: it's possible [23:35] Urchlay: there is away around that [23:35] You can use any one of 6665, 6666, 6667, 7000, 7070, 8000, 8001, 8002 to connect to freenode irc services Urchlay [23:35] http://tinyurl.com/klinetime [23:35] I would suggest connecting to freenode on 8000 or higher [23:35] Dominian: get some money, throw the linksys in the garbage, replace with something non-crappy [23:35] that should circumvent that dcc exploit [23:35] Urchlay: Or if you can and that router will take it.. put dd-wrt on it [23:35] Dominian: still no ssl support for freenode, right? [23:35] willca (n=willca@c-24-19-63-203.hsd1.wa.comcast.net) joined ##slackware.

[23:36] I'm interested in moving to slackware from ubuntu, but I'm concerned about dependency management. Why isn't it considered a big deal? [23:36] Dominian: Ok. Thanks. [23:36] losha: cause you manage the dependencies [23:37] Urchlay: The exploit is a flaw in routers and how they handle dynamic port creation.. stupidly implemented crap if you ask me [23:37] losha: and you don't do it too often [23:37] nyRednek: so what does that mean in practice? Doesn't it mean I'll install something and then find it won't run when I go to execute it? [23:37] losha: sometimes, yes. [23:37] if it were my router, I'd already have tried to run dd-wrt... it's the landlord's router, I rent a room. Every time I touch their computer stuff, for a month after that, I'm suddenly responsible for everything about their machines... [23:37] losha: it means that if dependencies aren't met, the program won't compile [23:38] Urchlay: ahh then I'd connect to freenode on port 8000 and that way you won't be affected [23:38] losha: then you'll learn about that software, and what libraries it needs, and what that library actually is. [23:38] losha: sometimes, runtime deps are needed. And it will usually be obvious what you are missing. [23:38] mohaa (n=mohaa@92.49.83.46) left irc: Read error: 110 (Connection timed out) [23:38] like, I helped their kid convert a word doc to HTML, and their printer ran out of ink around the same time, somehow it must be my fault... [23:38] losha: the upside is that you learn tremendously about GNU in the process. [23:38] losha: Well provided you get well-documented packages, it should list what dependecies you need for that program to run. You'll find a lot of the time that they're already installed or just a few more things you need to install to get it up and running. [23:39] but don't you end up in recursive dependency hell? x needs y needs z ..... [23:39] luckily Slackware includes a lot of libraries and such [23:39] mohaa (n=mohaa@92.49.78.151) joined ##slackware. [23:39] losha: no. [23:39] "dependency hell" is just a buzz-phrase that people use while not knowing what the hell they're talking about :) [23:39] losha: sometimes...not often [23:39] mancha: or used old versions of windows [23:39] losha: I never ended up in such a situation, in 8 years of using slackware. [23:40] losha: rpm-based distros are another story [23:40] so basically you rely on the fact that the dependency tree never gets very deep or very complicated in practice? [23:40] losha: I rely on myself to install what I need [23:40] losha: it's always the case, yes. [23:40] It sometimes gets annoying. [23:41] mancha: my definition of "dependency hell" is when a distro package is compiled with every possible extra --with-whatever option [23:41] losha: i've never seen a dependency tree get more than 4 or 5 packages deep on slackware [23:41] my definition of dependency hell is running out of alcohol after the shops are closed [23:41] mancha: like, debian's vim, if you install it, it installs all of x11, because vim's optional (and mostly useless) "x11 mouse support" option is enabled, so libX11.so is required, so... [23:41] mancha: haha [23:42] mancha: i see you live in the south, eh? [23:42] actually that may be fixed now, this was 8+ years ago...

If you build something that needs X11, there's a lot of stuff to install... [23:43] losha: well, on a default install of slack, x11 is included [23:43] Great thing about NYC. Liquor stores close late and there are 24 hour stores where I can buy beer :-) [23:43] phreak: no kidding [23:43] Action: jescis likes watching text scroll up the screen while an app is compiling >.> [23:43] thumbs: I never was on debian myself, for reasons like that... but my friends used to (and still sometimes do) come to me to fix the mess it causes [23:43] phreak: speaking of...i think i'm about to head to the 5-11 on richmond terrace [23:43] jescis: until it errors out. ;) [23:44] fire|bird, of course :-D [23:44] ok, maybe I'll check it out under vmware to see how I like it. Thanks... [23:44] losha: if you built vim on a system that has no X11 libs, it just won't include X11 mouse support (it's an optional extra) [23:45] Urchlay: ok, got it. Ubuntu has made me lazy though... [23:45] nyRednek: Hahaha. Unfortunately, I'm too lazy to go down and get some beer, even though I would really like some. [23:46] phreak: monsey? [23:46] or, like, you want sendmail but have no intention of using kerberos with it? too bad, if you're on redhat, you've got to install kerberos and its deps, and probably openldap, and whatever all else sendmail can optionally use (but nobody uses all of them!) [23:46] losha, I got away from ubuntu, because X would take resources away from server activities ;-) [23:46] (again, this is several years out of date, modern redhat might have a sendmail-minimal package or something) [23:47] nyRednek: What about monsey? [23:47] also on redcrap you can always get srpms and tweak to your hearts desire [23:47] mny, i don't think that's manhattan [23:48] jescis: well lately I'm not impressed with Ubuntu stability. And I'm happy with a cli... [23:48] (if you want to stay within the rpm framework, that is) [23:48] nyRednek: Haha, no Monsey is in NJ. [23:48] yeah, but honestly, if I have to tweak build scripts and compile, I'd rather use a SlackBuild, they're just plain shell scripts instead of redhat's weird little srpm spec-language [23:48] phreak: i'm still new here, tbh [23:48] losha, that's what slack is good for(unless you want minix ;-) ) [23:48] phreak: went from brooklyn to staten island(may as well be jersey) [23:49] nyRednek: Sorry, not NJ. Upstate NY, I believe. [23:49] some people like the rpm database though, you can find out all the package deps with a single command line [23:49] phreak: monsey is right off 287 [23:49] for example. [23:49] phreak: the manhattan brewery is there [23:50] nyRednek: Yeah that's still NY, near Nanuet and Nyack. [23:50] so do most users compile everything they want from source, or can I be lazy and download binary packages? [23:50] Action: nyRednek only knows because he tore up the manhattan brewery's asphalt lot with a loaded trailer [23:51] losha: for things that ship with slackware itself, you use the official binary packages. For everything else, you probably want to use slackbuilds.org, which consists of scripts that build things from source and create a binary package for you (which you then install) [23:52] nyRednek: Hahaha [23:52] well, I'm worried about something like handbrake, which has a bazillion dependencies....

[23:53] phreak: btw, manhattan brewery orders beer from anheuser busch in syracuse [23:53] do they actually brew beer?

[23:56] Urchlay: it does, which I found a pain in the ass. I spent ages downloading libraries and *then* found out that handbrake ignores them and downloads its own. I suppose it prevents library version mismatches, but it's not good for the impatient [23:56] xsamurai (n=sox@75.85.170.219) joined ##slackware.

"Patience is like a cheeta- it's hard to catch and it's hard to keep" ;-) [23:58] phreak: I really don't care about bleeding edge, I value stability over features, but I like to be able to quickly grab a binary, and then compile a more streamlined version later if necessary.

I used to use Debian and the only that I kind of miss is the availability of packages in the repos. [23:59] losha: if you find yourself having to compile stuff, nothing says you have to sit & stare at it... spend your time doing something else [23:59] (besides, compiling it like waiting for water to boil: staring at it makes it take longer!)
