00:00 <****> steve__: do you know the resolution for your 19" widescreen?
00:00 <****> gkahla: the native res?
00:01 <****> gkahla: i know it supports 1440x900 but i dont think thats its native resolution
00:01 <****> find the native resolution and don't bother trying anything else
00:01 <****> gkahla: I can't find any
00:02 <****> steve__: use that res and stick with it. anything else gets strange
00:02 <****> ianm_: is syslogd still running?
00:02 <****> gkahla: using that res still makes the monitor stay black
00:02 <****> gkahla: yes
00:03 <****> gkahla: like it flickers once but it stays black
00:03 <****> ianm_: do you have your previous authentication method documented? (do you know what protocol it was speaking?)
00:04 <****> Hi, I'm reading the pam docs and I'm trying to figure out how to have a fallback authentication mechanism. So if it exists in a passwd.db don't check the system users, but if passwd.db auth fails, check passwd & shadow before failing. Is that possible?
00:05 <****> steve__: widescreen monitors aren't detected "out of the box" real well. is there a command-line parameter for the LiveCD to support the WS res?
00:05 <****> gkahla: i dont know
00:05 <****> what would it be under?
00:05 <****> steve__: which liveCD are you booting?
00:06 <****> gkahla: gParted
00:06 <****> gkahla: "password" over SSL
00:06 <****> http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
00:06 <****> any ideas why i would be receiving this error:
00:06 <****> http://www.pastebin.ca/735732
00:07 <****> steve__: you might want to take a look at that site, and grep around for 'grub parameters' for your screen resolution. Sorry, but I'm not familiar with that liveCD...
00:07 <****> crm: ask #elive
00:07 <****> i did abrotman
00:07 <****> ask them again .. it has nothing to do with #debian
00:08 <****> ianm_: you might want to take a look at the shiny, new, broken courier config and see if you can set it back to "password" over SSL...
00:08 <****> uhm.. elive is based on debian abrotman
00:08 <****> !based on debian
00:08 <****>). Only Debian is supported on #debian. If your distribution has an IRC channel, you can use it instead. Even if your distribution has fewer people in its IRC channel, or doesn't have one, support for distributions other than Debian is offtopic on #debian.
00:08 <****> crm: that's nice .. so are about 100 other distros .. we don't support them here
00:08 <****> crm: and now that you know why this doesn't concern debian, ask the elive people
00:09 <****> well
00:10 <****> i can't believe that two people can speak for the entire channel
00:10 <****> the bot certainly does
00:10 <****> crm: believe.
00:10 <****> !elive
00:10 <****> elive is a livecd (installable) project based on Debian with additional packages for E17. It is not Debian. Supported in #elive (FN, irc.freenode.net).
00:10 <****> crm: we could call all the ops .. and they could explain it :)
00:10 <****> are you an op abrotman ?
00:11 <****> does it matter?
00:11 <****> crm: /msg chanserv access #debian list
00:11 <****> ah, now I understand: it's 00:13 on a sunday here now!
00:11 <****> not really
00:11 <****> everything becomes clear
00:11 <****> damn.. only 23 ppl in #elive
00:11 <****> crm: you guys started early this week
00:11 <****> wols_: yeah, sunday here too.
00:12 <****> whats the fuss
00:12 <****> ever heard of permanent sunday? :-)
00:12 <****> DawnLight: i see no fuss.
00:12 <****> In the interest of my sanity I refuse to acknowledge permasunday
00:12 <****> wols_: good luck with that approach.
00:12 <****> hehe
00:13 <****> well, not the first time I've been called crazy...
00:13 <****> well, both things arent helpful
00:13 <****> hm, i don't have nearly enough decent punk rock
00:13 <****> permasturbation :o
00:13 <****> exit
00:13 <****> So concerning PAM; I see sufficient but it looks like it ends the pam stack execution if the condition is met. I need to have a "second chain" executed.
00:13 <****> DawnLight: OMGPIX
00:14 <****> Guerin: last time i checked this was a member of the *chan realm of the internet
00:14 <****> i must go, but will leave you with this bit of wisdom: One may not recurse before one successfully curses for the first time. -pax and thanks-
00:15 <****> maxamillion: I'm not sure I grok your meaning, sirrah.
00:15 <****> DawnLight: what kind of interface do you use to the irrigation system?
00:15 <****> JohnGH: software wise?
00:18 <****> DawnLight: no, hardware - did you make something, or did you buy a system with a ready made card?
00:18 <****> I take it nobody actually edits their pam stacks and just use the default ones.
00:19 <****> JohnGH: this is what i bought http://www.wgldesigns.com/rain8pc.html
00:20 <****> tw-nym: strange, but true.
00:20 <****> tw-nym: lots of people use custom PAM modules, though.
00:21 <****> (I realise that's probably not going to do what you want)
00:21 <****> JohnGH: bought it before i migrated from windows. that thing has only windows software. good thing the protocol is available!
00:22 <****> Guerin: Considering this is the first time I've wanted to edit the pam stack in about 9 years of linux use, I can understand.
00:22 <****> JohnGH: i type some stuff here, and the valve opens in the other room!! yey!
00:22 <****> DawnLight: groovy :) which one are you using? hard wired, WiFi or RF?
00:23 <****> the hard wired. serial port issues, remember
00:23 <****> I came after that bit sorry
00:24 <****> so it's RS232?
00:24 <****> yes. now i'm designing a cli front end to it
00:24 <****> :)
00:24 <****> Are you just echoing stuff straight into the serial port to drive it?
00:25 <****> but i don't know any programming language, so i'll design it as detailed as i can and look for someone to write it
00:25 <****> i am doing just that
00:25 <****> awesome :)
00:26 <****> although i don't understand why it is working like that. the baud rate should be set to 4800 according to the protocol and i don't specify that nowhere
00:26 <****> I'd like to get into doing some control stuff, but really don't know where to start.
00:26 <****> control what?
00:26 <****> About amule, I dont know what is happening, but Its impossible to download servers from http://ocbmaurice.dyns.net/pl/slist.pl?download/server-best.met
00:27 <****> Im looking for a server list
00:27 <****> you can help me write the cli interface :)
00:27 <****> S4nD3r: this is not a p2p channel. Ask elsewhere.
00:28 <****> DawnLight: hehehe
00:28 <****> sorry
00:28 <****> Stuff around the house for me - what are you irrigating? your lawn? or a farm?
00:28 <****> brb
00:29 <****> S4nD3r: have you tried asking on #amule? there are LOTS of people there who could help you!
00:29 <****> back
00:29 <****> re hi
00:29 <****> !fgi S4nD3r server.met
