<talexb> This is a brand new installation .. which is kinda frustrating ..
<Eitan> Hello?
<talexb> zu22 .. OK, and what tool do I use to find the dependencies? Aptitude?
<mikess> markybob: 48 celcius
<zu22> predder: hah
<Eitan> Can anyone help me with my problem?
<markybob> mikess, i dont have a clue what that is. and even if i knew celcius, it wouldnt tell me much without knowing what type of machine it is
<zu22> talexb: apt should tell you the dependencies, i don't use graphical front ends
<niru> good morning all
<zu22> Guerin: greets
<talexb> zu22 Thanks, will try apt.
<Guerin> zu22: sup, sheeeyi
<Guerin> t
<Guerin> you haven'
<Guerin> t been arounf much, mr musashi
<Rusty1> Eitan: try apt-get -t stable upgrade
<markybob> mikess, ok, i converted it and now know what it means :) that should be fine, so look somewhere else
<markybob> mikess, run memtest86, for example
<undesktop> Rusty1: what does that -t do?
<mikess> ok
<Eitan> Rusty1: Thanks. Another question:
<Eitan> I am using sarge... I had it switch to using xorg. How do I switch back to using xfree86? (or which one should I be using?
<Eitan> )
<zu22> Guerin: heh last i chatted with ya you were in Switzerland yes?
<Rusty1> the -t specifies the branch from which the packages wil be fetched
<undesktop> Rusty1: ah... why didn't they just write that into the manpage
<Eitan> Rusty1: how do I change the respositories file for apt-get?
<markybob> Eitan, /etc/apt/sources.list
<markybob> Eitan, apt-setup
<Eitan> markybob: thanks...
<olsen> Only wimps use tape backup: _real_ men just upload their important stuff on ftp, and let the rest of the world mirror it ;) Linus Torvalds
<olsen> i love that quote :)
<Eitan> So if I'm using sarge, should I be using xorg or xfree86? Currently I set it to use xorg, and it seems to be broken. How do I switch between using xorg and xfree86?
<markybob> olsen, he's a great programmer, but sometimes he's an idiot :) what company would want their private stuff out for all the world to see?
<olsen> markybob: i don't think he is an idiot, good companies? ;p
<markybob> maybe in utopia. this is earth
<stoned> everyone is an idiot
<schme> me too!
<talexb> Trying to remove kdebluetooth produces: 'subprocess post-removal script return error exit status 2'
<stoned> only the magnitude of it varies
<talexb> But I can't get rid of kdebluetooth. :(
<undesktop> talexb: --force-all
<Guerin> zu22: nah, never been to switzerland - i was in Korea
<undesktop> damn why did they put scripts into debs
<talexb> undesktop, Thanks .. dpkg or apt-get?
<undesktop> another borken design decision
<undesktop> talexb: dpkg... I don#t know how to do it with apt-get
<Eitan> Which window X is recommended for sarge, xorg or xfree86?
<markybob> undesktop, because a *lot* of programs need post-inst things done to work as expected? there are a million reasons
<talexb> undesktop, Hmph, same errors. :(
