Slackware :: How To Figure Out What ARCH Binary Was Compiled For

Jul 3, 2010

If I was writing a SlackBuild that repackages a precompiled binary, how would I know if it was i{3,4,5,6}86?Or should I just assume i386 unless it says otherwise?Just wondering how the people at SlackBuilds.org figure this out.

Slackware :: How To Figure Out Dependencies

Nov 29, 2010

I installed slackware 13.1 (64) but I didn't install kde because I am using fluxbox. Now I would like to install k3b. I have gslapt installed but there are no dependencies listed. The k3b website says that kde is a requirement but that can't be true. find the dependencies of the official slackware package. The slackware book does not seem to have that information.

Slackware :: Can't Figure Out How To Get Wireless Running

Apr 28, 2011

so I know this is probably one of the most asked questions from Slackware noobs, but i can't seem to find an acceptable answer to this question. How to get wireless networking, working under Slackware linux.I know the tools i should be using(ifconfig, iwconfig) but I have no idea how to use them. I know the init script that I need to edit but I'm not to sure where to get the information it requires, such as the ESSID.I am running 13.1 64bit. I know that the wireless network I want to connect to uses WPA encryption.As well I have never used Slackware before, I've had the most experience with CrunchBang, the problem being wireless worked out of the box for that.

Slackware :: Can't Figure Out How To Get Wireless Working?

Feb 4, 2010

Ok, so I've been researching this like all day because I can't figure out how to get my wireless working on Slackware (and that's the only way I can get internet on my laptop here). So, when I run uname -a it tells me I am running kernel 2.6.29.6 According to http://intellinuxwireless.org/?p=iwlwifi since I have a Intel� PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection adapter the iwlwifi driver included with Slackware and the released drivers will not work.

So, I "need to use the compat-wireless project that retrieves the latest driver development code from the upstream repository." Problem #1 - I can't access the repository from Slackware without my wireless. Problem #2 - I have no idea how to get the files I need / configure my system to use them from my other OS (I am triple-booting Windows 7, Linux Mint, and Slackware). So, I THINK once I get the driver installed for my wireless it should be easy enough. I've already become pretty familiar with rc.inet1.conf from trying to get it to work so far, so if all I need to do after this is mess with that then I should be fine.explain if/how I can get the right driver set up in Slackware? I can access my Slackware partition from my other distro no problem.

Slackware :: 13.1 RC1 Still Compiled For 486 Support?

May 16, 2010

I read this on Patrick's twitter: Considering compiling future 32-bit x86 Slackware packages for i686 and finally leaving i486 and i586 support behind. Would the devs mind sharing why the change hasn't been made? I'm guessing there must be a lot of Slackware users with 15-20 year old computers that want to run the latest software.

Slackware :: Change The $ARCH Variable To X86_64 Too, Right?

Jun 5, 2011

I'm mainly asking beforehand so I won't have to shoot myself in the head twenty minutes from now. I suppose I'll find/figure out one way or the other anyway . Can I just source the 32dev.sh and then run sbopkg -i if the source for the package I want to create isn't 64bit capable? I might need to change the $ARCH variable to x86_64 too, right?

General :: ARCH & Slackware's Bootup/mounting Process?

Jul 9, 2010

I was wondering if anyone can tell me what file, etc is the equivalent of ARCH's /etc/rc.sysinit? I need to know this because I am having many problems making the new nfluxos iso's for ARCH because of how ARCH now mounts stuff at bootup

due to whatever changed in udev or udisks or something else in ARCH now, when I make the system into a livecd it doublemounts everything when booting for example; output of "mount" in nfluxos with 3.4squashfs udev 151

Code:
[root@nfluxos ~]# mount
rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)
aufs on / type aufs (rw,relatime,si=4ce08f22,nowarn_perm)
none on /proc type proc (rw,relatime)
none on /sys type sysfs (rw,relatime)

Slackware :: Including Add-ons Inside A Firefox Self-compiled Package ?

Mar 26, 2010

is it possible to include an add-on (or more) inside a self-compiled txz package for firefox? Actually I'm trying to build a fully localized version adding UI localization and (possibly) the italian dictionary. The latter is distributed as an .xpi (zip archive) and is supposed to be installed from inside firefox, so I don't know how to include it at compile time or at least before building the txz...

Slackware :: When I Used Arch Linux, One Of Favorite Stops At The Forums Was The Community Contributions Section?

Feb 3, 2010

One thing that really bothers me about Slackware is the lack of unified, well maintained, and up-to-date documentation, but what keeps me coming back is the outstanding community. I see a lot of community contributions floating around on these forums, but they often get buried in all the questions and other posts people create. I know there's a search feature, but sometimes it's fun to browse an organized list of the community's work and see if I find anything fun or interesting.

Back when I used Arch Linux, one of my favorite stops at the forums was the Community Contributions section. The FreeBSD forums also have a section for user-contributed HOWTOse should have a section like this. Call it "Contributions" and place it by the "Installation" section at the top of this forum. It would provide a great place for users to check out what the other slackers have come up with without making a thread of their own to ask (which will probably result in many duplicate threads) or digging up an ancient thread.The only new threads allowed there could be a HOWTO, a new process or method a user discovered, or a user-made script/program/etc. Of course, other users should be able to comment with their replies for suggestions and/or improvements.

Slackware :: Difference Between Slack's Firefox And Mozilla's Binary?

Mar 24, 2011

Firefox's Brazilian Portuguese Language Pack has not yet been ported to Firefox 4 so I got Mozilla's Firefox binary in my language, used Pat's Slackbuild for 13.1 and replaced Slack's Firefox with it. I tried compiling it localized from source using the Slackbuild in /source, but all I found to add to the configure options was a "--with-l10n-base=directory" option, which I made point to the pt-BR locale I'd downloaded from Mozilla, but it still compiled in en-US.

My question is: am I missing out on something like the cairo-tee option? If I am, has anyone had success in building a localized version of Firefox around here? How?

Slackware :: Slack Build Binary Dependencies In Database

Jul 17, 2011

sbbdep is a program that reads the elf header of dynamic linked files found in the given argument. argument can be

a package file from /var/adm/packages/...
a DESTDIR destination path of make install
a single given binaries/dynamic libraries

as result it prints out, or into a file, the package names the given argument require. sbbdep scans installed packages, extract some information about dynamic linked binaries and libraries and dumps these infos into a sqlite database usually sbbdep works fast. time consuming is only the first where the cache becomes created this takes about ~? (1 - 2) minutes, of cause, duration depends on the number of cpus and speed of disk io on other runs than the first sbbdep syncs the cache, this is usually a fast operation (~1sec), even if some packages where undated/remoed/installed using the cache with a sqlite client some custom queries can be done like what is required by pkg or file, what are the dependencies of file xy,....

current state of sbbdep is 0.0.1, the first public release. of cause I wanted to make some things better, prettier, more documented and o on but before going on holiday, than waiting until Christmas cause work stresses and than an other year comes I place the code now to a public repo. for me it looks stable enough to release it without stress people that will test/use sbbdep to much with problems. but there may be some bugs I did not noticed, or better say there will be some bugs like it is always the case in software. but since sbbdep does not anything critical an can/shall be run as normal user it will not do anything bad.......

Fedora :: Can't Quite Figure Out What The Cause Is?

Apr 29, 2011

I'm attempting to put together a 'nice' front-end for a set of image deployment scripts I've written. I'm running in to two different issues that I'm sure are related, but I can't quite figure out what the cause is. I am populating a variable with information from several text files to form my tag, string and default state for a dialog statement...

Code:
for dir in /tmp/apps/* ; do
APPMENU="$APPMENU $(echo $dir | sed 's//tmp/apps///') $(cat $dir/info)"
An example of the contents of /tmp/apps/office/info:
Code:
'Microsoft Office Enterprise' 'on'
The result of echo $APPMENU:

[Code]...

Does anyone have any idea what I should check for? Is there's a specific quoting method I need? In a Bash script I'm pulling quoted text from a file with cat then writing that same string (hopefully quoted!) to a variable. I have a single set of hard quotes (') in my text files presently.

Ubuntu :: Can't Figure Out What Is Using RAM (and It's Not The Cache)?

Jun 15, 2010

I've been troubled by the high amount of RAM that is used by my Ubuntu desktop. Before I installed Ubuntu 10.04 (desktop, 64-bit) my system used around 500MB of RAM when no applications were open (just cold boot into the GNOME under 9.10). But when I installed Lucid, I've noticed that my used memory is now reported as 1GB or more as soon as I log into the system.

I want to figure out what is using all the extra RAM but I can't seems to find the culprit. I looked at all of the processes and numbers just don't add up. I exported the list of processes into a file and summed up the memory used by every process in a spreadsheet. The total came to around 700MB. Yet, both System Monitor and "free" reported the time that system was using over 1GB of memory. This means that at least 300MB of RAM are used but not by any process, at least as reported by "ps".
