[02:48] just to try it out [02:49] turns out multichannel actually works on it on my soundcard whereas alsa didn't [02:49] probably a config issue, though [02:49] alisonken1home (n=alisonke@pool-71-104-236-81.lsanca.dsl-w.verizon.net) left irc: Read error: 110 (Connection timed out) [02:49] ossv4?

[02:51] sahko, yes [02:51] sounds like a lot of work [02:51] I'd give you my slackbuild, but I doubt you'd want to use it ;) [02:51] it's not clean [02:52] no i wouldnt:) [02:52] it's not too difficult, I just blacklisted the appropriate soundcard module, installed oss, and it works [02:53] packaging oss is a little more difficult [02:53] neither is my finger. [02:53] yes but slackware specifically uses alsa on all build scripts i remember seeing [02:53] so you dont get sound from many apps [02:53] sahko, well in that case, maybe not [02:53] sahko, xmms, mplayer, various games, all work so far [02:53] but might be wrong. dont remember how many apps do that [02:54] granted, xmms's plugin is out of date so the volume controls don't work [02:54] one is rdesktop for example [02:54] sorry if I sound off tonight, I'm just a little bit baked [02:55] Nick change: taleon_ -> taleon [02:55] but anyway, I'd give more focus to audio control in the panel [02:56] Knightingale (n=tp@unaffiliated/knightingale) joined ##slackware.

[03:09] yuh,point taken [03:09] I can.. hell I dont use any scripts, I build it using pico.. [03:09] always best to learn [03:09] doesn't mean I trust them more than a person on the slackware team who is right here and would probably answer any question I might have about it :) [03:09] sahko: in alien bob's script, when i choose gatewall/firewall, what does the internal network IP address mean?

[03:17] ok [03:17] and it doesn't look bad. it is an input-based fw (ie outgoing is not checked) [03:18] Reticenti, samba easier. [03:18] yeah [03:18] or not [03:18] so, i just used alien bobs iptable script [03:18] if you are going to use iptables, you really aught to do yourself the favor and learn how it works. its really not so hard [03:20] sahko (n=grbzks@pdpc/supporter/active/grbzks) left irc: "leaving" [03:21] how does a file manager (such as thunar) mount external drives as a normal user?

[03:33] mrselfpwn i saw that thread here yesterday or day before and didn't realize since i don't use links. yeah, funny default config. [03:34] i want my ports to be on stealth mode, right?

I still have to startx after logging in. [03:35] msrself, aha, ok it was you. so how is it with X enabled? [03:35] now what you could do is use a little iptables magic and a barebones tcp server and make it so that iptables basically lies at random on which ports are open. [03:36] hoary, you need to change your default runlevel for that [03:36] im at 3 [03:36] yuh /etc/inittab [03:36] should i be at 5 ? [03:36] hoary, you need to change your default runlevel for that [03:36] lol, why would i want to do that SiegeX ? [03:36] links with xgraphics? I couldn't imagine [03:37] mancha: very cool. I was looking for a very lightweight browser for misc stuff that wasn't as big as firefox and a little more well graphical than regular links. [03:37] well if you have to have open ports, say 22, 80, 21 etc. then a portscan gathers no real data since they have to sift through what nmap suggests are open ports but really aren't [03:37] _AtheoS_ (n=_AtheoS_@92-234-149-22.cable.ubr19.live.blueyonder.co.uk) joined ##slackware.

[03:40] what does links look like with xgraphics enabled? [03:40] the higher these firefox version numbers get the more attractive a primarily-text-based browser becomes [03:40] quasar: i'll do that if i get a lot of people connecting to me [03:41] trying to connect to me* [03:41] mancha: yes [03:41] is your machine behind a router?

I'll try those from the link. [08:41] Why did you enable OLPC support though TwinReverb? [08:42] OLPC? [08:42] One Laptop per child [08:42] because it's aim is laptops [08:43] Are those laptops almost toyish though? I looked at one when I was considering enabling that option as I have a netbook. [08:43] do you know what features it actually adds? [08:43] yeah, I highly doubt anyone with a OLPC will compile a custom kernel [08:44] the only real differences from the generic kernel config (other than enabling SPI and tablet support) is that i enabled anything/everything that saved power, configured it for -Os (optimize for size), LZMA compression, and set the default cpufreq governor to ondemand [08:44] why lzma support? won't that be slower extracting to ram? [08:45] thrice`, but it's good on file size, which laptops normally have less of (due to (all things being equal) laptop hard drives being more expensive in terms of GB to $$ rate) [08:45] lol [08:45] :D [08:45] I'd REALLY like to see the comparison in size between a gzip'd bzImage, and your lzma successor :> [08:46] Well with those SSD netbooks that actually does hold true. [08:46] you probably have that, right? [08:46] I have the normal hard drive. [08:46] thrice`, i know that generic-smp is usually 4.3MB and usually my kernel configs (granted, i specify my CPU, -Os and LZMA) are 2-2.3MB [08:47] 2.6M/boot/vmlinuz-generic-2.6.29.6 [08:47] -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2.0M 2009-09-12 08:06 /boot/vmlinuz-slap-2.6.31 [08:47] TwinReverb, would you mind if I looked at your .config?

[08:48] -Os is because (as I said before) in theory the more code at a time a CPU with lots of L2 (think Pentium-M dothan with 2MB L2 or higher like some of the more expensive core 2's) should see more code and therefore do better branch prediction [08:49] since lzma is slower to extract, I was just curious why that 0.4MB was worth saving, over speed. Are people desperate for < 1MB of space ? [08:49] mrselfpwn, there's a link on the LQ thread [08:49] mine might be small enough to make a boot floppy diskette [08:49] TwinReverb: the 2.6.31 one. not the 2.6.30.5 [08:49] Action: TwinReverb shrugs at thrice` [08:49] mrselfpwn, there should be a reply link at the bottom for the 2.6.31 [08:49] oh, okay yes i see it thanks. [08:50] i use it myself, and so far it works good [08:50] does anyone else besides RMS have an OLPC? [08:51] however, it's a "generic" style config. make sure you add ext2|3|4/xfs/jfs/reiserfs support [08:51] sahko, hahaha [08:51] TwinReverb: Os should have less optimization than O2 [08:51] thrice`, no, "less" isn't the concept, more that it's for a different reason [08:51] -O2 / -O3 is for speed / arch [08:51] it's for 1 reason - size [08:51] -Os is for size of the executable [08:51] it tries to do O2 optimization, but will refuse if it'll increase the overall size [08:51] it doesn't unroll loops, etc [08:51] The-Croupier (n=ksandros@unaffiliated/thecroupier/x-363548) left irc: "Lost terminal" [08:52] no, actually per the make manual it picks and chooses specific optimizations that are known to work without making the executable larger [08:52] one that it does not do is unroll loops (for example) [08:52] you might like this article: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7269 [08:53] ckt1g3r (n=ckt1g3r@bl4-148-246.dsl.telepac.pt) joined ##slackware.

[08:54] -Os mentions nothing of -O2 [08:54] you just pasted that it does! [08:54] -O2 -O3 and -Os are merely a quick cheap way of specifying a bunch [08:54] yes but you are not understanding [08:54] -Os does not enable -O2 [08:54] you are contradciting yourself [08:54] of course it doesn't [08:55] it enables specific optimizations from the alias -O2 that do not typically increase code size [08:55] sorry then, i thought you said -Os and -O2 were the same for a second [08:55] so it trys to be the best of both worlds. [08:55] Action: TwinReverb shrugs [08:55] no, not the best of both worlds [08:55] yes, but O2 should provide better results [08:55] -O2 and -Os are totally different worlds, there's no third party trying to be the best of both worlds [08:56] (i.e. like people refer to "ondemand" trying to be the "best of both worlds" i.e. like "powersave" and "performance") [08:56] Os does the best it can, but will make size it's priority.

[11:41] is it as simply as changing .tgz to .txz in a .SlackBuild to use the new format? [11:41] i think yes [11:41] so doesnt slackware do tgz files anymore ? [11:41] yes, though txz is more compact [11:41] frenkiey: no. it uses tgz only for some crucial packages [11:41] makepkg can create either one [11:42] right, it still supports them though txz is default now [11:42] .txz is just what Pat provides - you can do anything your heart desires :) [11:42] mrselfpwn: actually, it's even simpler. [11:42] ok .... Lord_Khelben apart from slackbuilds what other server you recommend packages [11:42] ? [11:42] yeah. i always make my packages tgz because i am impatient :P [11:42] mrselfpwn: export PKGTYPE=txz in your shell startup files. [11:43] adeodatus (n=RF@92.82.89.123) joined ##slackware. [11:43] or whatever value you want PKGTYPE to bve. [11:43] and and it will change the value upon build? [11:43] frenkiey: 3rd party repositories aren't recommended. on the contrary you shouldn't use them [11:43] use only slackbuilds [11:44] firedix (n=firedix@host250.200-82-11.telecom.net.ar) joined ##slackware. [11:44] yeah [11:44] slackbuilds are actually 3rd party, but they have Pat's mark of approval. [11:44] because the quality of the binary packages hosted there isn't always good [11:44] slackbuilds.org that is. [11:44] slackbuilds is a 3rd party script repository [11:44] mrselfpwn: slackbuilds aren't binary [11:44] garrythefish (n=fisher@unaffiliated/garrythefish) left irc: [11:44] mrselfpwn: well yes.. that's why the makepkg line now has ${PKGTYPE:-tgz} [11:44] mrselfpwn: they don't .. see http://slackbuilds.org/faq/#affiliation ;) [11:45] frenkiey: if you want binary packages then rworkman and alienBOB have quality packages in their repositories [11:45] chipster_ (n=chipster@zildjian.chipsnet.org) joined ##slackware. [11:45] yeah ive seen alienbobs site not sure about rworkman [11:46] the best way though is to download a slackbuild and run it (also view it in a editor to see what it does. it is quite simple) [11:47] 'shouldn't use them' is a bit harsh... 'use them at your own risk' is more appropriate.. there are plenty of people out there who give binary packages to the slackware community that dont make it to an official repository, it'd be silly to say "you shouldn't use them!"

It's quite userfriendly to just download a binary package and installpkg it. Hence why Lp.net manages to keep alive. [11:48] Action: thrice` prefers pre-built packages [11:48] I build my own slackbuild if I can't find it at slackbuilds.org [11:48] |Slacker| (n=tanis@189.34.123.186) left irc: "Leaving" [11:49] BP{k}: but sometimes they override slackware-provided packages without the user knowing and when he removes the package, nothing works [11:49] that is what i meant with not new user friendly [11:49] you can't take quality into consideration [11:49] I prefer building my own, unless we're talking about something like OOo, KDE, qt, etc [11:49] something that takes forever to build [11:49] LnxSlck (n=LnxSlck@81.193.17.191) joined ##slackware. [11:49] is the only difference is a package is easier to uninstall ?

[11:50] um, yes it does [11:50] Lord_Khelben: took 6.5hrs on my machine [11:50] it takes my laptop about 3 hours [11:50] to do 1/2 of KDE [11:50] it took about 2 hours on mine [11:50] yeah, they don't let just any SBo on their site. [11:50] it is a core2duo hm let me see which model [11:51] if i was on 12.2 would take long to upgrade wih a decent net connection ? [11:51] 2 hours without qt, then [11:51] intel c2d e6550 its quite old [11:51] yes 2 hours without qt [11:51] ive never upgraded before [11:51] frenkiey: mm, 30 minutes? depends [11:51] not bad [11:52] I would go with 1 hour for the entire process, not counting getting ther tree.

[12:53] hi [12:54] y0 kaballas [12:54] has anyone noticed a difference in power usage between slack and slack64 [12:54] ? [12:54] so whats the best way, to bomb in there and just run updates and then choose if i want to update or not? I mean, how would I know if I shouldnt be updating a certain package? I guess what im asking is what is a good update strategy? [12:54] /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state used to show about 1100mA current draw with 12.2 [12:54] now i see about 1600mA with 13-64 [12:55] kaballas: What are the specifications of your system? [12:55] i updraded to 2.6.31 after reading about some acpi bugs that were fixed in 2.6.30, but still no luck [12:55] rich_dnb: for a large number of servers? [12:55] yeah [12:56] i have an acer emachines e625, amd athlon64 tf-20 cpu, ati radeon mobility x1250, 2G ram 160g HD [12:56] does the cpu just use more power in 64bit mode? [12:56] powertop only shows about 70-100 wakeups per 20s with nothing showing up as particularly suspicious [12:56] rich_dnb: i would say having a staging area to test the updates dont break things, then keeping your own mirror of the patches that your machines update from automatically. [12:57] and you only push the updates to your local mirror when they are ready [12:57] hmm, yes, that sounds good [12:58] rich_dnb: a lot of the time, security updates are for stuff you arent even using, but some of it still needs to be updated even if you arent using it [12:58] acpi wakes up quite a bit (15% of wakeups), and passing acpi=noirq fixes this, but power usage stays about the same [12:58] cuba33ci (i=cuba33ci@118-160-167-204.dynamic.hinet.net) joined ##slackware.

[15:25] It depends how you encode it I would think [15:25] ccfreak2k: Yeah, I used to use wma's just because the file size was a bit smaller and still had decent sound quality. [15:25] cfdisk = newbies = pirving [15:25] You can get good low-rate mp3 encoders, and good high-rate ones [15:26] But I can't say I actually know [15:26] use fdisk [15:26] looks like we're stuck with mp3's for a while [15:26] until people wisen up [15:26] fire|bird: how did it score over at http://acid3.acidtests.org/ ?

[22:17] actually i can't answer that question yet. I was attracted to it becuase ti was supposed to be small like dsl, but not crippled, also like dsl is. the ability to install anything "ubuntu" can install and still be small was attractive to me [22:17] PenPerk (n=carlj@static-71-246-216-235.washdc.fios.verizon.net) left irc: "Leaving" [22:17] Zamboli (n=Obi-Wan@75-93-7-5.eug.clearwire-dns.net) left ##slackware.

I'd run debian. [22:20] Dominian: why hate to say it? be proud in your choice of being a slacker ! [22:20] well, if you can point me towards another distro, i'll consider it. what i want is a distro that starts with a nice gui (xfce, gnome) and network tools, but not all the other stuff bloated on like ubuntu. small and zippy is what i want. dsl does that, but i hope you like the software it came with, cause you arent gonna be using too many things besides that... [22:20] heh [22:21] lol,Dominian....and something that runs like Windows w/o the patches guess would be like Ubuntu [22:21] daedalus-sax: Personally, I like openSUSE if I have to use something other than Slackware [22:21] MLanden: hehe [22:21] daedalus-sax: you know .. that sounds like slackware ;) [22:21] BP{k}++ [22:21] opensuse hates my machine, i already have downloaded and burnt it. opensuse works good on vbox though [22:21] daedalus-sax, you can install the minimal of slackware [22:21] daed, there are a bunch of distribs that fit your description. slack can be made into it (excluding gnome which is a bit more involved to install) [22:22] slackware isn't a start small and build-up distro, IMO [22:22] daedalus-sax: there are Slackware Gnome projects out there though if that's what you want to use [22:22] dissociative (n=dissocia@adsl190-28-85-221.epm.net.co) left irc: Read error: 60 (Operation timed out) [22:22] daedalus-sax: but it sounds like you want something with a built-in package manager and repositories full of software.. openSUSE and Fedora do offer that type of setup. [22:23] i am looking for something at best moderately difficult. i cant wrap my head around the whole debian distro system of there's. no matter how many times i download and burn in the main gui part, i get no gui [22:23] how does one determine the version of a opt/kde tree; no var/log/package available [22:23] Quiznos: if its /opt/kde its KDE 3.X more than likely.. if on Slackware that is.. [22:23] k [22:23] Quiznos: kde-config --version or kde4-config --version [22:23] kk [22:23] Quiznos: grep opt/kde /var/log/packages/* ? [22:23] why didn't 13.0 go with /opt for KDE? [22:24] no package info available [22:24] daedalas-sax: if I had to choose something other than Slack I'd choose Debian or FreeBSD. However, Slackware is it for me. [22:24] slackware hasn't put KDE in /opt for awhile [22:24] blackorca: Why would it/ [22:24] old install [22:24] to be honest, if i could get dsl on my machine, using xfce and able to use the debian packages instead of the dsl ones that are severely lacking, dsl would be my os [22:24] Dominian: it used to :) [22:24] Dominian, why did <13.0? [22:24] thrice`: Yeah.. I know it used to [22:24] blackorca: uhm .. KDE hasn't been in opt in some time. [22:24] 3.1.4 [22:24] the BSD's go great with Gnome [22:24] But KDE hasn't been in /opt in a t least what.. 2 versions? [22:24] BP{k}, why was it originally there? [22:25] and i dont know about you guys, but ever since kde 4, gnome and xfce are now my must haves for a gui [22:25] KDE4 isn't bad [22:25] because Pat used to provide gnome too. I think it helped separate things a bit [22:25] PenPerk (n=carlj@static-71-246-216-235.washdc.fios.verizon.net) joined ##slackware. [22:25] heh, xfce was my fav for a long time ago. [22:25] 4.2.3 is quite stable.. 4.3 is quite nice though from what I'm told [22:25] This is the first time I've ever installed the KDE packages. I just saw something in some old docs about /opt/kde, and I was just curious [22:25] Dominian: I think it was moved from opt -> usr in the 12.0 development cycle. [22:26] yah [22:26] that's what I think too [22:26] would you recommend KDE for an Acer Aspire One user? [22:26] flame_me: maybe with all the desktop effects shut of [22:26] f [22:26] flame_me: how much mem? [22:26] i pretty much despise kde. i want simple graphics, ease of use. not pretty. if i wanted pretty i would install opensuse of kubuntu. [22:26] i wouldn't recommend kde to a 8X core system :> [22:26] I've had KDE4 crash (or at least some application crash) at least 7-8 times using it about a total of 20-30 minutes [22:26] 1GB, MLanden [22:26] besides xfce is rockin' [22:26] xfce rocks [22:27] mostly from messing around with the settings [22:27] daedalus-sax: word up [22:27] daedalus-sax: xfce is just a Gnome wannabe ;) [22:27] but isn't KDE4 supposed to consume less mem than its predecessor? at least that was the point, unless I'm wrong [22:27] i would suggest fluxbox to just about anyone willing to use it.

[23:28] mfillpot: it's not broken [23:28] just a silly question to know if its possible [23:28] it's just getting closer to being broken [23:28] acidtripper: it's possible to crack WEP but WPA still requires brute forcing to fully break [23:28] or an insanely complex mitm attack [23:29] http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/reports/6837/1/ [23:29] "Both the Beck-Tews and Ohigashi-Morii attacks work on only the TKIP algorithm. They do not work on newer WPA2 devices or on WPA systems that use the much stronger Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm, which is a triple key encryption method." [23:29] my note was wrong only WPA - TKIP has been broken [23:29] so whoever said to use AES, listen to them [23:30] mfillpot: and if you read the whole abstract it you find two key points; they can only decrypt parts of the protocol still and it requires the insanely complex mitm [23:30] I just finished setting up WPA-EAP TLS on my home network [23:31] antiwire: yes that is true, but at least they have broken something. what drives me crazy is vendors telling people to use WEP. [23:31] is there a good pastebin clone that accepts utf? [23:31] why would anyone use WEP [23:31] aceofspades19: because linksys or their ISP told them to [23:31] why did they tell them to? [23:32] they still set WEP to be the default option for encryption because there are still WEP only devices out there and people without knowledge on this topic are better off at least using WEP than nothing [23:32] aceofspades19: because most people don't know anything about security [23:32] becase they're stuck using ancient equipment that only supports WEP, maybe? (but in real life, everyone seems to throw away everything every year or so, so I dunno how likely that really is) [23:32] antiwire: not really [23:33] aceofspades19: you think plaintext wide open is better than at least WEP?

[23:35] hell every network I can see ~20 are on WEP because that is how the ISP set them up [23:35] it's the equivalent of the latch on a screen door: it keeps out the casually curious, just because it's a symbol meaning "private property" [23:35] |Slacker| (n=tanis@189.34.123.186) left irc: "Leaving" [23:36] neonflux_ (n=mrjones@207.47.17.7.static.nextweb.net) left irc: Remote closed the connection [23:36] mfillpot: unfortunately it's the safest bet for the installers.

[23:39] I used to run a wide-open AP, then one day I noticed my bandwidth being eaten (by a windows machine with wide-open SMB shares, I looked & found it was my next door neighbor) [23:39] aceofspades19: Walk down the street and ask everyone you see if they know what WEP even is. [23:40] so to keep him out, did I use WPA? Or even WEP? No, I just set up a MAC address whitelist... trivial for anyone with any knowledge to bypass, but nobody ever did [23:40] just set the ssid name to "bigbother" or "honeypot" [23:40] security thru fear [23:40] I just disable wireless and bust out the cat5e :) [23:41] bigbrother that is [23:41] antiwire: there isn't many people on my street at 9 pm [23:41] i can no longer connect via ssh to this machine [23:41] oh man hahaha that was a good one. nice diversion attempt [23:41] dimm0k (n=dimm0k@pool-71-183-178-240.nycmny.east.verizon.net) joined ##slackware.
