| liable | linux2: we all suffer a little dyslexia every once in a while :) |
| Azar | acc_: it was said somewhere that those who upgrade from Sarge > to Etch / as opposed to fresh install will miss some features.. ... that could be installed separately |
| linux2 | liable: lol. isn't that true |
| anson | that worked linux2 thanks |
| linux2 | Anson: well your not done yet |
| anson | no? |
| netdaemon | anyone know how i can add gtk themes to xfce? |
| linux2 | you need to tell debian to load that at boot, otherwise you will have to hand enter it each time your reboot |
| acc_ | Azar: You're saying that this could be resolved by comparing the .debs on each machine and bringing the upgraded one up to date? |
| anson | hwo do i do that |
| Azar | acc_: the Etch installer brings new things (not sure which, since I did not installed) that the upgrade will not have |
| linux2 | Anson: hang on one sec. the file layout of debian got changed so im looking for it. just give me one sec |
| anson | kk |
| acc_ | Azar: hmm, okay thanks |
| anson | do i use xfree86 with ati drivers? |
| liable | acc_: run 'dpkg --get-selections > file.txt' on both boxen an diff the files |
| linux2 | Anson: you would need to use xorg for that Anson: on edit the file /etc/modules as root |
| anson | ok one second |
| linux2 | and add mousedev to it k |
| anson | do i just add modprobe usbmouse? or just usbmouse? |
| acc_ | liable: thanks |
| linux2 | usbmouse and mousedev both on separate lines without the modprobe in front of it |
| anson | is mousedev for ps2 only i think i might be |
| linux2 | im not exactly sure about that |
| anson | i have somthing in there that says psmouse.. should i take that out? |
| linux2 | Anson: no, you can leave it in there |
| anson | dpkg-reconfigure xorg? how do i edit xorg |
| eisen_ | often trying to start without any xorg.conf at all works |
| liable | !drxx acc_ |
| dpkg | acc_: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 [or xserver-xorg if you're using X.org] (as root). If you have edited the X config file by hand, or used some other program like xf86config, ask me about <xmd5> |
| eisen_ | strange as it may seem |
| anson | thank you it worked |
