[11:48] Candinho, have to change the mirrors file [11:49] ok and you do: mount /dev/cdrom and nothing? [11:49] pi31415: Actually, it's probably inteldrmfb [11:49] then I would suggest you remove the cdrom entries from /etc/fstab, make sure your user is part of the plugdev/cdrom groups, and try again after logout/login [11:49] and you may want to do install new and clean system [11:49] phe (~phe@AToulouse-258-1-157-222.w86-201.abo.wanadoo.fr) joined ##slackware.

[11:53] ok, let me rephrase paste your linux provided error, not your own creation of an error report :) [11:54] by default, if no valid driver for the chipset is found, X will default to fb mode [11:54] Which doesn't really apply to this situation :-) [11:54] heh [11:55] x-ip (~lain@unaffiliated/x-ip) joined ##slackware.

[11:58] The issue is that you don't like the resolution of the framebuffer console, but you need KMS (which provides the framebuffer) in order for X to run. [11:58] ok, do you see the errors? those IO errors means a cat with sharp nails walked on your CD [11:59] i could try vga=0x0f00 [11:59] pi31415: So assuming X is working fine, just leave it alone and append video=640x480 (or some other resolution you *do* like) to the kernel boot line. [11:59] you don'tread? [11:59] pi31415: Again... Use video= [11:59] adamk: i do not like the slow speed of the framebuffer console [11:59] OK. [11:59] That doesn't change anything that I've said.

You can either get rid of KMS, and not have a functioning X, or you can specify a resolution for the framebuffer with the video= option. [12:00] Or you can leave the console exactly as it is.

[19:34] macavity, go for upgrade txt [19:35] hackedhead, no - you have to go by alien's multilib setup [19:35] hackedhead: no, but alienBOB still has it [19:35] alisonken1home: mmk, thanks [19:35] raela: thanks =] [19:35] Candinho: i'm an old rat in this.. i go over CHANGES_AND_HINTS.txt first, then upgrade with slackpkg, then carry out what needs to be done configuration wise [19:35] why is it better to run generic than huge?

[19:36] dchmelik: that's apparent;y still correct [19:36] macavity, now u show that u are smart, because if u dont read changes and hints, u wouldnt know u need change ur fstab before u try upgrade all [19:36] dchmelik: well, you'd be more support than someone coming in on zenwalk [19:36] yes is offical 13.1 [19:36] pi31415, depending on who you ask - huge has support for pretty much all major boot up hardware, whereas with generic, you create an initrd with just the drivers for your drives, then it loads the rest of the drivers off the hard drive [19:37] Candinho: i dont need that.. i have SATA disks :P [19:37] pi31415: official to slackware :P [19:37] some people here have a webpage why an initrd is evil incarnate, but it's personal preference [19:37] alisonken1home, do those unused drivers stay loaded after boot? [19:37] pi31415: the huge kernel is just that: huge and bloated [19:37] pi31415, they're part of the kernel, they're not modules, so yes - they stay in ram [19:37] pi31415: you get faster boot times and less memory consumption with generic+initrd [19:37] now i grok it, thank you [19:38] pi31415: also, lsmod actually show you someting usefull when using generic [19:38] Action: macavity is a puritan who compiles everything but initrd support as a module anyway [19:38] what kind of memory savings do you get with huge vs generic ? [19:39] only a couple of megs [19:39] macavity, for update first u do slackpkg update, then slackpkg install-news , then slackpg upgrade-all right?? [19:39] years ago i tried to use no modules and only compile in the drivers i needed [19:39] but at some point, some drivers only worked as modules [19:39] Candinho: and clean-system [19:40] macavity when i do clean system? [19:40] Candinho: then i re-install the hand full of apps that i use from SBo [19:40] ah cool [19:40] Candinho: at the end.. as the manpage says [19:40] gh0st (~gh0st@c-67-182-57-230.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) left irc: Ping timeout: 260 seconds [19:40] Candinho, there's also the problem with switching to libata and lilo so at one point you may have to boot the dvd/cd to be able to get lilo to work [19:40] unless I'm thinking of 12.2 -> 13.0 [19:41] macavity, why u wasnt online a few hours earlier u could had save my life ahuahuah [19:41] alisonken1home: no, that's in changes and hints I believe [19:41] macavity, now im dowloadin the dvd iso to format and install :P [19:42] i liked the bsd idea of having a base system versus packages, but I thought they were beginning to put too much stuff in the base system [19:42] cya guys good night [19:42] nn [19:42] Candinho (~Candinho@unaffiliated/candinho) left irc: Quit: Fui embora [19:43] pi31415, what was the difference between the base system and pkgsrc?

[19:45] dchmelik: pkgsrc was much bigger, it had thousands of packages, and a byzantine framework to deal with all the ways build scripts can go wrong^W^Wbe different [19:45] is NetBSD still considered the most secure OS?

[19:49] where the package name goes [19:49] pi31415, slackware assumes you know what you're doing :) [19:49] shonudo (~user@c-174-56-31-0.hsd1.nm.comcast.net) joined ##slackware. [19:50] indubitableness, I believe the tagfiles just specify the package name and options (required|recommended|,,) [19:50] and gives you the freedom to do so [19:50] alisonken1home: yes, and slackware is also somewhat at the mercy of other projects [19:50] so if I want to get packages from a partition as opposed to off the disc a tagfile can't be used to install those during set up?
