[05:09]<sajvv>genone: so after i must select the processor durring install? what one should i use?
[05:09]<znpyzys>scott: not to be discouraging, but i dont think gentoo is quite your style if youre having issues with determining your arch...
[05:10]<rggjgg>scott: for stages either i586 (don't think we have those) or i386, if you're doing stage1 install use i586 as CHOST, don't change it if you use stage3
[05:10]<rgjj2>how can i play a music CD with mplayer?
[05:10]<znpyzys>gnoob: mplayer cdda://*track*
[05:10]<sajvv>lol.. i understand i dont have a good grasp on the basic consepts of any linux flav.. and i understand that gentoo is one of the more complex ones but i think i can do it if i just get the basic stuff down and use the documentation
[05:11]<znpyzys>scott: but this is basic PC stuff... it doesnt matter what OS you use
[05:11]<rgjj2>so *track* would just be 1 or 01 or something?
[05:11]<znpyzys>gnoob: yup
[05:11]<zzzvv>Why doesn't a simple java application that runs fine on windows run on linux? I'm using a very simple sample app as an example - java AlarmClock.class gives me Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: AlarmClock/class
[05:11]<znpyzys>gnoob: or you can specify ranges... like 1-5
[05:11]<zzzvv>Sorry, meant for the java channel
[05:11]<sajvv>anyhow thanks for the help
[05:11]<vxnaxzys>I'm not sure if it makes sense to make a bug report though. last time i did the devs just called me dumb.
[05:12]<rgjj2>zefiris, cool, thanks much.
[05:12]<rgjj2>if i put a number bigger than how many track therer are it just just play all of them?
[05:13]<ys_guff>hello everybody, there is a usb connected sytlus D88 on this gentoo box, trying to install it's pips drivers, command : "/usr/sbin/lpadmin -p sc87 -E -v ekplp:/var/ekpd/ekplp0 -m eksc87.ppd" returns output : lpadmin: add-printer (set device) failed: client-error-not-possible; googling couldn't give better information that there may be an error in the syntax, but this command is just copied from pips printer stylus D88 driver readme
[05:13]<ys_guff>. ghostscript, cups and psutils are correctly emergedany idea ? i never installed a printer on linux thought.
[05:13]<jjvluv>thechris: this isn't about obscene gcc optimizations, is it?
[05:13]<znpyzys>gnoob: if you dont specify a track i believe it plays them all
[05:13]<rgjj2>ah, even better
[05:13]<rgjj2>it think it will.
[05:13]<znpyzys>gnoob: i take that back... the track specifies the starting track
[05:13]<lzaanav_qt0w>I read in the gentoo security handbook that it would be a good idea to disable loadable kernel modules, but what effect would this have on my day to day usage?
[05:14]<znpyzys>gnoob: and it plays till its done.. unless you specify a range to end on
[05:14]<rgjj2>i did not type a track and it started playing
[05:14]<vxnaxzys>ootput: no. it seems bison2.1 doesn't generate correct code for the new(?) stdlib.h. it needs to add "throw()" at the end of the malloc and free declarations.
[05:14]<znpyzys>koo
[05:14]<znpyzys>figured it would
[05:14]<rgjj2>i typed 01 and it stopped after 1
[05:14]<znpyzys>ok
[05:14]<znpyzys>then you got it
[05:14]<rgjj2>yeah, no track specification plays all of them.
[05:14]<znpyzys>koo
[05:15]<yntzq>project_2501: not much if you include all the support you'll need so you won't be recompiling kernels every day
[05:56]<srmnm>Zefiris Okay. What is a light-weight client I can use and that is easy?
[05:56]<drssygn>Zefiris, do i need to remount this time or only to chroot to get what i made earlier ?
[05:56]<gysgg>sayed, sometimes I'm wondering...
[05:56]<znpyzys>right... see i dont use a font server.. cause its pointless if youre not going to have remote terminals connecting
[05:56]<rfnw7e>trippin211, mount -o remount,rw /mnt/extra
[05:57]<znpyzys>yassine: remount and choort
[05:57]<znpyzys>chroot
[05:57]<srmnm>eisen ?
[05:57]<znpyzys>sayed: i like (and use) ncmpc
[05:57]<drssygn>okay so i need to re creates the node i already created
[05:57]<srmnm>So I would emerge this client?
[05:57]<rfnw7e>Zefiris, but how do I keep X from using 70MB VM size and blocking on swap when programs needs fonts?
[05:57]<drssygn>since they are no more here now
[05:57]<2zyrgw>sayed: for a gui client, glurp is nice
[05:57]<gysgg>sayed: do you read manuals at all?
[05:57]<srmnm>eisen Well, I am new to mpd and they all seemed helpfull enough to tell me. Thanks though :)
[05:57]<znpyzys>alex6z: wow... i dont know what the issue is with your system :/;
[05:58]<srmnm>brianw Would I emerge a client?
[05:58]<sg00cd>bob921 : I implemented straight genkernel --udev all and made all ogne problems thereafter I for LS /boot/kernel * /boot/initrd *, which kernel is there, but is missing intrd
[05:58]<2zyrgw>sayed: yes
[05:58]<2zyrgw>sayed: mpd is the server, there are many clients
[05:58]<srmnm>brianw Thank you :)
[05:58]<rfnw7e>Zefiris, it's becuase I only have 129MB of ram. it isn't unusual for X to use a lot of it. actually it's more like 40MB but still
[05:58]<frsvgjmn>is there a util that will run through my grub.conf and see if my paths are correct?
[05:58]<2zyrgw>sayed: eix -S mpd && eix -S music player deamon
[05:59]<asvpyfjv>does anyone know how to turn the screen on a dell laptop after you've shut the lid?
[05:59]<ez2zmjz>sayed: n/m i was just being dumb lol

[05:59]<sdgzzcuzvjz>oops wrong channel i apologize
[05:59]<fdnfmd>eh. please don't use those sysinfo scripts. annoying and floody
[05:59]<znpyzys>alex6z: use kdrive
[05:59]<fdnfmd>synackuator: :)
[05:59]<2zyrgw>sayed: ?
[05:59]<fdnfmd>cstPilot: #gentoo-laptop might know
[06:00]<srmnm>brianw That command?
[06:00]<asvpyfjv>Fieldy: No one talks there :(
[06:00]<2zyrgw>sayed: that is just to search portage for clients
[06:00]<rfffgdrgwq19>Thank you Zefiris
[06:00]<srmnm>brianw I have glurp open. How shall I identify mpd?
[06:00]<zyaxynpzyax>cstPilot, i know someone that knows but there not on now
[06:00]<znpyzys>Appleman1234: np (although i cant remember what i helped you with [damn 151! :D])
[06:01]<zyaxynpzyax>Appleman1234, how are things ?
[06:01]<2zyrgw>sayed: you need to setup mpd first, then start it
[06:01]<sg00cd>bob921 can you help me?
[06:01]<srmnm>brianw Okay i'll man it
[06:01]<asvpyfjv>richiefrich: next you see that person, can you ask?
[06:01]<2zyrgw>sayed: once mpd is started, simply fire up glurp and point it at localhost
[06:01]<zyaxynpzyax>cstPilot, roger that
[06:02]<qjqnqw>sn00ky: sec, phone call
[06:02]<srmnm>brianw glurp >> localhost ?
[06:02]<znpyzys>brianw: oooo.. i likw glurp
[06:02]<gysgg>sayed: if you want basic instructions on how to run your computer I can offer you a tour at #penguinslair.
[06:02]<rfffgdrgwq19>richiefrich: Things are grrr... I am still getting used to gentoo and emerge, if i didn't have kuroo or be so stubborn I probably would have switched by now
[06:02]<awnsjdn-jq000>bootstrap ETA on a p4 2.6HT with 1g pc3200?
[06:02]<znpyzys>brianw: altough i like ncmpc, glurp is a nice change :D
[06:02]<xmmzjrgg>Awesome-o2000: why are you bootstrapping
[06:02]<srmnm>eisen I don't appreciate that.
[06:03]<gysgg>sayed, probably not, but it is necessary.
[06:03]<awnsjdn-jq000>hydrogen, testing hardware mostly, why?
[06:03]<xmmzjrgg>theres no need to bootstrap..
[06:03]<srmnm>eisen I know how to use my computer :)
[06:03]<awnsjdn-jq000>hydrogen, well, doing a stage1 install , its a great way to find memory errors and the such
[06:04]<xmmzjrgg>thats possibly the silliest reason i've ever heard to do a stage 1... but it's original, I'll give you that
[06:04]<gysgg>sayed, I mean no offense.
