00:00 <****> kino has an option where you tell it which driver you use. Which 1394 drivers you have available now?
00:00 <****> perhaps you can try with a different one?
00:00 <****> sam55: where's this option ?
00:01 <****> let me fire up kino and let me see.
00:02 <****> Question: I upgraded to Unstable without uninstallng Envy/NVIDIA drivers first, now Envy says my OS isn't supported.
00:02 <****> guillaume1: crap. I think I spoke too soon.
00:02 <****> That option is grayed out becuaseit can't find the raw1394 driver. So it is lookin gfor that driver specificallly i think.
00:03 <****> sam55: :) I really need the raw1394 juju version so
00:04 <****> guillaume1: looks liek you need to install an earlier version of the kernel then. Don't see any other except to compile your own
00:04 <****> null___: unstable has the latest nvidia drivers anyway
00:04 <****> null___: just get rid of that crap and just build the kernel module and install nvidia-glx
00:04 <****> h3sp4wn: My X is broken
00:04 <****> guillaume1; what happens when you modprobe raw1394
00:04 <****> h3sp4wn: Tutorial link?
00:05 <****> !nvidia post etch
00:05 <****> I just build a file server and will be installing the stable release of Debian. I'm using a 64bit xeon. Should I used the amd64 install or just the i386?
00:05 <****> !nvidia_post_etch
00:05 <****> well, nvidia_post_etch is update-pciids && apt-get install module-assistant nvidia-kernel-source && m-a prepare && m-a a-i nvidia && apt-get install nvidia-glx && depmod -a && modprobe nvidia && dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
00:06 <****> pickcoder: Fatal error
00:06 <****> g3brown: if it's just a fileserver, AMD64
00:06 <****> g3brown: most of the issues with AMD64 are desktop-related
00:07 <****> ameyer: Yeah, SMB server and maybe apache
00:08 <****> I think amd64 should work for that, it's mostly non-free crap where it's an issue
00:08 <****> g3brown: amd64
00:08 <****> guillaume1: can you do a modinfo on raw1394.ko for the kernel version you're running
00:10 <****> amd64 it is then. thanks guys
00:10 <****> pickcoder: uname -a : Linux dell-xps 2.6.22-2-amd64 #1 SMP Thu Aug 30 23:43:59 UTC 2007 x86_64 GNU/Linux / locate raw1394.ko : no reply
00:11 <****> it's in 2.6.18
00:11 <****> modinfo /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/ieee1394/raw1394/ko
00:11 <****> pickcoder: I'm under testing
00:13 <****> it's not there anymore
00:13 <****> What's the command to restart X?
00:13 <****> null___: press CTRL+ALT+BKSPC
00:13 <****> ctrl+alt+backspace
00:13 <****> ieee1394 looks to be firewire now
00:13 <****> Nope, X isn't running, I need to start it from shell, but it's not anywhere in /etc/init.d?
00:14 <****> as root init 5
00:14 <****> guillaume1: you're on your own with that. I don't use firewire, so I dunno if there is a work-around apart from dropping back a kernel
00:15 <****> I don't see a kernel less than 2.6.22 for lenny, though
00:15 <****> null___ : /etc/init.d/gdm restart, if you have gdm. s/gdm/withyourdisplaymanager/
00:16 <****> pickcoder: I think too, I wish just avoiding to use handmade kernel for lenny
00:16 <****> guillaume1: you can try compiling the raw1394 module
00:16 <****> you don't necc need a handmade kernel
00:16 <****> or startx if in runlevel 5
00:16 <****> pickcoder: yes, there are older version in Testing.
00:16 <****> sam55: a search on packages didn't show any
00:17 <****> use an etch kernel,2.6.18?
00:17 <****> I get this as an example: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686
00:17 <****> ah.. there they are
00:17 <****> sam55: pickcoder : I heard that downgrade can't be done with aptitude, is that true ?
00:17 <****> !downgrade
00:17 <****>.
00:17 <****> try booting an older kernel with raw1394
00:18 <****> pickcoder: here, take a look: http://pastebin.com/d359db561
00:18 <****> http://pastebin.com/d359db561 x aunes
00:18 <****> oups :) eterm copy sory
00:20 <****> ok
00:21 <****> sam55: under testing there's only 2.6.21 and 2.6.22 amd64 kernel image
00:21 <****> in my repository
00:22 <****> hmm ..
00:23 <****> yeah, looks like htat. Just install 6.21 then. You should get raw1394.
00:24 <****> http://pastie.caboo.se/111368
00:24 <****> ^^, wtf..
00:24 <****> apt-get is crap for installing things, IMHO.
00:24 <****> sam55: ok i'll downgrade
00:25 <****> eth01: if you remove a configuration file, that's a perfectly valid configuration decision.
00:25 <****> !confmiss
00:25 <****>
00:25 <****> eth01: use the above with apache2.2-common or apache2-common
00:26 <****> Package apache2-common is not available, but is referred to by another package.
00:26 <****> is there any way to increase the mic boost? i have capture levels at maximum and mic 80pc mic boost but the volume is still too low for skype... anyone know what i can do? i'm using snd-hda-intel module
00:26 <****> jonkri: Get a mic pre-amp?
00:27 <****> karsten: well, i rather not. i have never needed that with the windows driver
00:27 <****> Invalid command 'Order', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
00:27 <****> kersten: are you saying that is required?
00:28 <****> eth01: so a2enmod auth_basic; or whatever.
00:28 <****> jonkri: See if there's not an internal channel that Skype's using which needs to be boosted.
00:28 <****> (or authz_default or whatever module gives the Allow/Deny stuff)
00:28 <****> /dev/sda7 865G 104M 821G 1% /scratch
00:29 * karsten hopes that's enough storage for now.
00:29 <****> karsten: i get the options in skype to use hda intel (hw,intel,0) etc but they are all low
00:29 <****> karsten: can i boost them somehow outside of alsamixer?
00:32 <****> jonkri: alsamixer, aumix
00:32 <****> karsten: aumix, will try that. thanks
00:33 <****> Question: Dist-upgraded to unstable, 22-2 kernel says "/dev/hda8 does not exist", "try root=/dev/sda8" and drops me to BusyBox. grub does not like "root=/dev/sda8". Can anyone help?
00:34 <****> null____: use sdx,y in /etc/fstab use hdx,y in grub
00:34 <****> iirc
00:35 <****> null____: root= would be for the kernel-cmdline. for grub it would be something like (hd0,7)
00:37 <****> ; /me waves!
00:38 <****> Okay, I edited my /etc/fstab. Time to restart and hope for the best.
00:38 <****> yes so root (hdx,y) then kernel line uses root=/dev/sdx,y ; /etc/fstab uses sdx,y
00:38 <****> iirc
00:39 <****> actually, i think grub starts at 0, while fstab starts at 1. because the root hda8 was listed in my grub sa hd0,7
00:39 <****> yes hd0,7 = hda8
00:40 <****> damn, i was going to reboot now, but Damn It Feels Good To Be A Gangsta came on, and now I have to beat up my printer, brb
00:46 <****> Is there something to "undelete" a recent file on ext3?
00:46 <****> karsten: tried aumix, but i couldn't find a way to boost the signal
00:46 <****> karsten: any other idea of how i could go about to do this?
