#debian channel featuring nintendo3DS, teraflops, mad_hatter, bazhang, sstar, dpkg, and 5 others.

mad_hatter 2017-01-30 12:45:19
alrighty, well i guess i can try to create a new partition after cp'ing the iso over with the firmware .deb
somiaj 2017-01-30 12:45:22
Brigo: maybe with a netboot, but that requires a second machine you can boot from on the network I think -- and even then you may have to boot on the kernel given...
Brigo 2017-01-30 12:49:28
somiaj, i was thinking about choosing kernel flavours.
somiaj 2017-01-30 12:50:01
oh like the i386-amd64 image?
nintendo3DS 2017-01-30 12:50:55
I'm trying to set it to use an unsecured wifi from the command line, it looks like I have everything set right but it still says the network is unreachable if I try to ping anything
zykotick9 2017-01-30 12:51:17
somiaj: with the new hybrid debian images i wasn't personally able to add another partition to the drive... ymmv?
somiaj 2017-01-30 12:51:55
zykotick9: yea I was thinking this can only be done with the live images...which of course aren't efi if mad_hatter wanted to use efi.
somiaj 2017-01-30 12:52:24
nintendo3DS: give more details in what you have done.
missmbob 2017-01-30 12:54:38
nintendo3DS: you were using ntmui, right?
missmbob 2017-01-30 12:54:54
nmtui*
nintendo3DS 2017-01-30 12:56:04
I put an entry in wpa_supplicant.conf of network{ssid="ssid name"\nkey_mgmt=NONE\nscan_ssid=1\n}, did ifup wlan0, somiaj
nintendo3DS 2017-01-30 12:56:09
that doesn't seem to be installed, missmbob
somiaj 2017-01-30 12:56:40
nintendo3DS: care to share your interfaces file? Is it setup to use wpasupplicant?
nintendo3DS 2017-01-30 12:57:13
http://i.imgur.com/2yRNrQK.png
somiaj 2017-01-30 12:58:24
the allow-hotplug wlan0 and wlan1 most likely doesn't do anything.
somiaj 2017-01-30 12:58:31
you could also try not to use wpa-supplicant.
nintendo3DS 2017-01-30 12:58:47
then where would the ssid be specified?
somiaj 2017-01-30 12:59:07
nintendo3DS: try just using wireless-essid my_essid_without_quote
somiaj 2017-01-30 12:59:31
you won't need any encryption or wpa_supplicant and this should just use iwconfig or iw, and not need additoinal features of wpa_supplicant
nintendo3DS 2017-01-30 12:59:36
that isn't installed
somiaj 2017-01-30 12:59:40
though I'm surprised you can't get wpa_supplicant to connect
somiaj 2017-01-30 12:59:44
wireless-tools isn't installed?
nintendo3DS 2017-01-30 13:00:02
I guess not, bash couldn't find wireless-essid
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:00:18
nintendo3DS: not this is a config for the interfaces file
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:00:26
nintendo3DS: http://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/15393/connect-to-unsecured-wireless-network
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:00:42
nintendo3DS: iwconfig or iw will be the commands it uses which should be part of wireless-tools which I think should be installed
Brigo 2017-01-30 13:00:49
what's the meaning of +bp3, +bp2 or +bp1 at the end of a package name?
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:01:12
Brigo: might be a non-matainer upload
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:01:14
Brigo: what package?
Brigo 2017-01-30 13:01:29
not matter the package just wondering
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:02:08
Brigo: standard is usually -+
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:02:31
Brigo: that additional stuff sometimes appears due to a non-matainer upload for a bug fix, matainer hasn't been around, etc.
Brigo 2017-01-30 13:02:59
somiaj, i know that, but can't see what this bpX stuff. Thanks for the information :)
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:03:29
Brigo: oh wait, sorry, seems nonmatainer uploads I am use to are -.
SerbianBoY 2017-01-30 13:03:41

somiaj 2017-01-30 13:04:08
Brigo: was just courious if you had a package name, see if it becomes clearer from the changelog
Brigo 2017-01-30 13:04:49

SerbianBoY 2017-01-30 13:06:05
i said hello
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:07:09
Brigo: yea I am looking at aptitude, and see no mention of the +b3 in the changelog
Brigo 2017-01-30 13:07:10
somiaj, there is git and svn too
bazhang 2017-01-30 13:07:18
SerbianBoY, this is debian support
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:07:29
Brigo: maybe #debian-mentors on oftc might have a real answer.
SerbianBoY 2017-01-30 13:07:30

bazhang 2017-01-30 13:08:53
SerbianBoY, did you have something you needed here in debian support
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:09:03
Brigo: wonder if it is some local thing that is useful for the matainer...

how do i reset the mysqld admin user password
nintendo3DS 2017-01-30 13:14:00
problem seems to be that whcpdiscover is never getting a response
nintendo3DS 2017-01-30 13:14:06
dhcpdiscover
missmbob 2017-01-30 13:15:05

dpkg 2017-01-30 13:15:06
If you've forgotten the root password, /etc/init.d/mysql stop; mysqld --skip-grant-tables; mysql -u root; use mysql; UPDATE user SET Password=PASSWORD('mynewpassword') WHERE User='root'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; C-d; stop mysqld; /etc/init.d/mysql start See also http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/resetting-permissions.html, .
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:15:09
SerbianBoY: they are probably quiet, you can get a list from ChanServ, you should also take these questions to #freenode
SerbianBoY 2017-01-30 13:15:33

Brigo 2017-01-30 13:15:43
there is bp3 and b3, i just realized it now.
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:17:00
Brigo: yea, i'm not seeing anything in the policy manual nor the changelog about what it means.
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:18:55
Brigo: random guess, could it have something to do with version bumps due to RC-bugs during the freeze....
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:19:16
Brigo: well not version bumps, but bugs are fixed, so there needs to be a version bump, but the freeze won't allow it.
SerbianBoY 2017-01-30 13:19:24
im bored
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:19:26
though I would think this would be in the changelog

somiaj 2017-01-30 13:21:14

Brigo 2017-01-30 13:22:28

Brigo: ahh so these are appeneded by sbuild it seems.
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:23:09
Brigo: probabaly triggered by libaries changing.
somiaj 2017-01-30 13:23:17
(so depends may change, but the source is the same)
Brigo 2017-01-30 13:23:57
