00:01 <****> foo
00:01 <****> bork
00:02 <****> my sound card is acting goofy
00:02 <****> if i feed it something on the mic input and unmute the mic in the mixer it sounds fine
00:02 <****> if i record it sounds like shit
00:02 <****> i'm uploading a FLAC sample
00:03 <****> if SDF will respond
00:04 <****> http://sirajul.tx0.org/soundbug.flac
00:05 <****> the artifacts should be obvious, but i'm not sure what's causing it
00:06 <****> damn, sdf is having problems
00:06 <****> how can i open a vnc connection using real vnc viewer on the windows side ?
00:06 <****> Yancho: same way you do on linux
00:06 <****> Yancho: ip:display
00:08 <****> SerajewelKS no its not what i meant .. what packages would i need installed? i got the same packages installed on ubuntu and it accepts my connection to debian it says connection refused
00:08 <****> ok just kidding, it seems to be an audacity bug.. phew
00:08 <****> Yancho: on the windows box?
00:09 <****> im trying to connect from windows box
00:12 <****> for some reason I am suddenly not able to watch movies... when I restart X all goes back to normal..
00:18 <****> Evening folks. What's the easiest way of ensuring packages are only pulled in from security? I'm automating some upgrades..
00:18 <****> security team ups the debian version numbers
00:19 <****> simonrvn: Maybe I wasn't 100% clear. If I apt-get upgrade, I get new security bumped stuff, *plus* some other stuff from backports, etc
00:19 <****> simonrvn: for the automated stuff, I only want security.debian.org bumps :)
00:19 <****> and?
00:19 * astinus wasn't sure the best way to do that
00:19 <****> which is what I'm asking?
00:20 <****> astinus: remove the backports line from sources.list?
00:20 <****> maher: thats not a realistic solution, heh
00:20 <****> astinus: why do you have backports in sources.list if you don't want them?
00:21 <****> maher: Because when I do attended upgrades, I want *everything* upgraded, but thats only once every few months. Security upgrades I wish to apply once per day using CFengine, to cut down on my workload.
00:21 <****> hi, how do i restart syslog?
00:22 <****> limpio: /etc/init.d/sysklogd restart
00:22 <****> i have problms with psybnc, an irc bouncer application, on a 2.4 kernel it runs but on 2.6 it starts to hang after some time with an futex syscall, and an established udp connection to a dns server
00:22 <****> astinus: thx buddy
00:22 <****> astinus: well why not leave the default sources with security only, and copy over a fuller one when you want to manually upgrade
00:22 <****> ah now i see
00:22 <****> spq: use irssi
00:22 <****> astinus: or do something ugly with apt-preferences
00:23 <****> use m4 or something, or use symlinks depending
00:23 <****> i cant, its for customers
00:23 <****> simonrvn: can you specify to apt-get on the CLI which sources.list to use? I could push a sources.list.security I guess and just have the automated invocations use that?
00:28 <****> i don't know, manual should say
00:29 <****> Yancho: you'd need a vnc client, that's it
00:29 <****> hi folks. i just re installed debian and noticed that the sound is way too quiet when i plug in the speakers / headphones, unplugged is fine... what could it be?
00:29 <****> SerajewelKS i am using the same vnc client (real vnc) on ubuntu i log .. on debian : connection refused
00:30 <****> Yancho: is the vnc server running? is there a firewall?
00:31 <****> thats the problem .. not sure if it is running or not :S i dont recall i did anything on ubuntu so i guessed it does the same .. unless there is a firewall installed by default there shouldnt
00:31 <****> Yancho: if you just installed the vnc server packages, it won't start a server until you tell it to
00:31 <****> remote desktop
00:32 <****> no i am using xfce
00:32 <****> Fish-Guts: have you checked the mixer settings?
00:32 <****> Yancho: then you'll have to run it from the command line
00:36 <****> how do you send an EOF to netcat?
00:36 <****> well i may have some clues about this install where apt-get .. wanted to remove all kde.. to install a single library.. in fact it seems that there is only one package unavailable.. libnfnetlink1 .. as it sounds like.. and is where all the mess starts..
00:36 <****> bkruse: try crtl-D
00:36 <****> SerajewelKS vnc4server should be good right?
00:37 <****> maher: I want to pass it into stdin maher, like echo "blahblah" | nc ip port
00:37 <****> Yancho: depends what you want to do, and really it would take too long to explain it all
00:37 <****> how come before it was 'iceweasel' and now it's 'firefox' ?
00:38 <****> vampirefrog: other way around
00:38 <****> vampirefrog: it was firefox, now it's iceweasel
00:38 <****> just so it allow me to use remote desktop from my windows pc .. nothing much
00:38 <****> aptitude is pretty nice, as long as you can guess what keystroke does what.. not really genuine.. and you shouldnt be tired to manoeuvre it.. :(.. but compare to other stuff.. an improvment :( ..
00:38 <****> Yancho: well that will start a new vnc server with a new desktop, not the one you are using
00:38 <****> Yancho: have a look at the x11vnc package
00:38 <****> SerajewelKS: i know what I see :) before my last dist-upgrade, the browser was iceweasel, now it's magically been replaced by firefox
00:39 <****> the title bar says firefox and everything
00:39 <****> vampirefrog: which distro?
00:39 <****> lenny
00:39 <****> oki thanks SerajewelKS :) no i want it to use mine heh
00:39 <****> it's ff 2.0.0.11
00:39 <****> bkruse: same as cat, see http://www.jfranken.de/homepages/johannes/vortraege/netcat_inhalt.en.html
00:40 <****> SerajewelKS: why was it iceweasel in the first place? licence problems? what problems?
00:40 <****> vampirefrog: i'm on lenny too, just did a dist-upgrade, iceweasel wasn't touched, weird
00:40 <****> license
00:40 <****> *
00:40 <****> vampirefrog: mozilla was being a bitch about their trademark
00:40 <****> I'm actually using a launcher for iceweasel, and ff starts
00:40 <****> :)
00:40 <****> debian was applying unapproved patches, etc
00:40 <****> @info firefox lenny
00:41 <****> can I have 2 mains in /etc/apt/sources.list ?
00:41 <****> yeah, i guess if debian applies a buggy patch, it's mozilla's name that gets dirt int its face
00:41 <****> :)
00:41 <****> vampirefrog: uhm, 2.0.0.11 is in sid, not lenny
00:41 <****> !info firefox lenny
00:41 <****> maher: thank you!
00:41 <****> vampirefrog: that's their logic yeah
