[13:48] <daja77> Oops!  The the missing .so is due to mis-matched auto-tools being 
[13:48] <daja77> installed.  I have encountered this once before.  This problem means 
[13:48] <daja77> that the release is broken.  It is not strictly a libtool bug.

[14:39] <th> blindcoder: in short: lvm and lvm2 share filenames and do almost the same; lvm in 2.4 kernel versions; lvm2 is for 2.6 only and uses dm as "backend"

[20:52] demian (~demian@208.165.55.133) joined #rocklinux.
[20:53] <demian> hi
[20:53] <daja77> hi demian 
[20:56] <demian> daja77.
[21:05] <demian> j gigax
[21:05] <demian> ups.
[21:33] <daja77> damn clifford already applied libtiff
[21:34] <mnemoc> demian: .co?
[21:42] <demian> .cr
[21:43] <mnemoc> what do you with gigax then?
[21:44] <demian> friends, guys are nice.
[21:45] <SerWou> i've got a question
[21:45] <SerWou> i'm looking for a CD image editor, to edit ISO, BIN, converte them, etc... like winISO on Windauze
[21:47] <mnemoc> ultraiso on windoze :)
[21:47] <demian> mnemoc: yes ;-)
[21:47] <demian> mkisofs on linux 
[21:48] <SerWou> mkisofts ?
[21:49] <demian> fsck.. mkisofs.. 
[21:56] <SerWou> ok, thanks
[21:57] <mnemoc> i guess that wasn't the answer you were looking for :)
[21:58] <SerWou> i leaned i can mount them too
[21:59] <demian> yes, loopback device.
[22:00] <mnemoc> SerWou: mount has a problem, iso images tend to be fix to zero-free-space, so you can't add stuff
[22:00] <daja77> you can easily create isos by using k3b
[22:01] <demian> ah yes.. a cd burner for kde. dunno how it handles iso images.
[22:01] <daja77> just drag all the stuff you want to have in it, and let it create it for you
[22:01] <daja77> demian: it has to create isos before burning them
[22:01] <daja77> :)
[22:11] <SerWou> anyone runs vmware on Rock here ?
[22:11] <daja77> hm llewelyn does iirc
[22:14] tcr (~tcr@dsl-213-023-069-043.arcor-ip.net) left irc: "Verlassend"
[22:14] <demian> there is an opensource os virtual machine like vmware..
[22:14] <demian> botcsh or sth like that it sounds.. what's the right name?
[22:24] <daja77> guess you bochs but that is slow, use qemu instead, if that fits your requirements, guess there is a problem with the vmware kernel modules, at least something like this has been reported before
[22:47] <demian> umm.
[22:48] <demian> so is vmware still the best choice?
[22:48] <demian> i will read..
[22:48] <daja77> depends on your requirements, but i think it is still the most advanced solution
[22:51] <demian> high requirements maybe, a guy asked me about bochs, for an enterprise dedicated to software testing on multiple platforms, that's why it should be really fast, possibly will run .net framewwork and some other windows libraries.
[23:03] <daja77> qemu is quite fast and it can run windows, no idea about the comparision
[23:09] <SerWou> got a rock question again ;)
[23:10] <SerWou> for a ps2 mouse (Logitech Wheel Mouse Optical), it's /dev/mouse ?
[23:10] <demian> https://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/benchmarks.html
[23:10] <koffa_> most likely
[23:11] <koffa_> might be /dev/mouse1 to, I think
[23:11] <SerWou>  .free.fr it's my ISP ;)
[23:11] <demian> not really a rock's question but /dev/mouse is usually a symlink to the proper device
[23:11] <koffa_> <=
[23:11] <SerWou> what is the proper device ?
[23:12] <koffa_> well, mine seems to go to psaux
[23:12] <demian> umm.. sometimes /dev/psaux
[23:13] <koffa_> ls -l /dev/mouse should do the trick
[23:13] <SerWou>   /dev/misc/psaux
[23:14] <koffa_> then /dev/misc/psaux is most likely the proper device
[23:14] <SerWou>  and another question ;)
[23:14] <SerWou>  what is /dev/tty0 ?
[23:15] <demian> !!!
[23:15] <SerWou> the console ?
[23:15] <koffa_> I'm llost there, I think the terminal is /dev/pts though
[23:15] <demian> thanks daja77 about qemu, seems nice. will try it.
[23:15] <koffa_> or something
[23:16] <koffa_> no, tty is the terminal
[23:16] <koffa_> <=
[23:17] <SerWou> but why i've got this error message from a program : Cannot Open /dev/tty0 :  no such file or directory
[23:18] <mnemoc> SerWou: install devfsd
[23:18] <demian> are u using rock SerWou, maybe usinf devfs with no MAKEOLDCOMPAT attributes
[23:18] <SerWou> yes rock
[23:19] <SerWou> wait, i think i can have a solution
[23:19] <SerWou> tty0 is a serial device ?
[23:19] <mnemoc> nope
[23:19] <demian> if the problem is specific to the program ur running, try a symlink to /dev/vc/0
[23:19] <mnemoc> symlink will live until reboot
[23:20] <SerWou> yes, it's a vmware problem
[23:20] <demian> ttyS<N> are serial.
[23:20] <mnemoc> patch the program, use devfsd or add the symlink on init
[23:21] <mnemoc> sed -i 's,tty0,vc/0,g' vmware :p
[23:21] <SerWou> easy man
[23:21] <demian> SerWou: if u will use vmware often, try to vonfigure devfsd.conf in /etc to make compatibility with old dev style
[23:21] <SerWou> talking to a newbie fighting against rock
[23:21] <SerWou> yes demian
[23:22] <SerWou> but i don't know how to deal that
[23:22] <mnemoc> $ mine -q devfsd
[23:22] <mnemoc> devfsd 1.3.25 2.0.3
[23:22] <mnemoc> do you have devfsd installed?
[23:22] koffa_ (koffa@h211n1fls35o862.telia.com) left #rocklinux.
[23:22] <SerWou> yes
[23:23] <demian> using rock.. possible. dunt remember clearly.. using windows now, but it could be sth like..:
[23:23] <mnemoc> SerWou: is it running? :)
[23:24] <SerWou> 2sec
[23:24] <demian> REGISTER *.* MAKE_OLD_COMPAT   # not really sure, paste a line of ur devfsd.conf and i'll see
[23:24] <SerWou> doing a symlink to /dev/tty0 to see
[23:25] <mnemoc> demian: it is commented out there.... /etc/devfsd.d/compat does device specific compatibilities
[23:26] <demian> i see. i have most of a year without using rock..
[23:27] <demian> s/most of/than  # forgot english too.
[23:27] <SerWou> hehe
[23:28] <SerWou> damned, now, it's with tty7
[23:28] <mnemoc> hehe
[23:29] <mnemoc> SerWou: the elegant fix is to add tty* support in _your_ /etc/devfsd.d/compat
[23:29] <SerWou> ok
[23:29] <SerWou> you want to help me in private or here ?
[23:29] <SerWou> i love clean solutions
[23:30] <mnemoc> see that file, adding tty support will be intuitive
[23:32] <SerWou> got this file open
[23:32] <SerWou> what i have to do exactly ?
[23:33] <demian> vim <that-file>.. read and edit. i suppose.
[23:33] <demian> bye. take care.
[23:34] <mnemoc> SerWou: copy & paste usb block and replace usb with vc
[23:35] demian (~demian@208.165.55.133) left #rocklinux.
[23:36] <SerWou> i don't have a usb block
[23:37] <mnemoc> fb block?
[23:37] <mnemoc> misc block?
[23:38] <SerWou> damned
[23:38] <SerWou> i have to go
[23:38] <SerWou> fuck

[23:38] <mnemoc> yes
