| 00:08 | <risto> | whoa... this is awesome (so far) |
| 00:08 | <risto> | hard to believe two different NICs were not working and third $7 seems to work fine |
| 00:09 | <risto> | no more packet loss :-) |
| 00:09 | <@caker> | crazy |
| 00:09 | <@inkblot> | blort |
| 00:09 | <@caker> | today has been a good day for finding solutions |
| 00:09 | <@inkblot> | ya |
| 00:10 | <@inkblot> | caker, got a script for producing /dev? |
| 00:10 | <risto> | yep, went to Fry's and thought... heck if this card won't fix it, it's onlt $6.95 |
| 00:10 | <@caker> | Fry's :) You in CA? |
| 00:10 | <risto> | but both onboard 3com 3c910 and Linksys LNE100TX were not working |
| 00:11 | <risto> | caker, yes |
| 00:11 | <@caker> | inkblot: I have one that'll mknod ubd[a-h][1-16] |
| 00:11 | <@inkblot> | hmmm |
| 00:11 | <@inkblot> | just those and not the rest? |
| 00:11 | <schweeb> | there should be a MAKEDEV script |
| 00:11 | <schweeb> | comes with every distro |
| 00:11 | <@caker> | the rest I cp from an existing fs (like the host) |
| 00:11 | <@inkblot> | i see |
| 00:11 | <schweeb> | I forget which GPL package they're in |
| 00:11 | <@inkblot> | schweeb, this is my distro |
| 00:11 | <@inkblot> | schweeb, i have no MAKEDEV yet |
| 00:12 | <schweeb> | check the LFS docs |
| 00:12 | <schweeb> | they'll tell you where to download it from |
| 00:12 | * | schweeb tried doing lfs in a uml a while ago |

| 02:26 | <@inkblot> | i'm having a very strange problem with my linode |
| 02:27 | <@inkblot> | some of my logs are not rotating |
| 02:30 | <@inkblot> | [inkblot@dorothy:/var/log][inkblot@dorothy:/var/log]$ ls -alF auth.log daemon.log mail.log messages syslog |

| 02:31 | <@caker> | does cron complain/run? |
| 02:32 | <@inkblot> | cron does not complain |
| 02:32 | <@inkblot> | running logrotate manually is not rotating them either |
| 02:32 | <@inkblot> | i am completely at a loss here |
| 02:32 | <@inkblot> | it's not a disk space issue, there's plenty of space in which to do the rotation |
| 02:34 | <@caker> | logrotate -d ? |
| 02:34 | <@caker> | or .. strace .. |
| 02:35 | <@inkblot> | there's no mention of those logs in the debug output |
| 02:35 | <@caker> | bad config? |
| 02:35 | <@inkblot> | but that's true of those same logs on other systems |
| 02:35 | <@inkblot> | and they're not having this problem |
| 02:35 | <@inkblot> | it's the original config |
| 02:35 | <@inkblot> | i haven't touched it |
| 02:37 | <@caker> | could be because the default config has no mention of those logs either? |
| 02:37 | <@inkblot> | same as other systems, works fine on them |
| 02:37 | <@caker> | do you have a 'real' debian system to examine? |
| 02:37 | <@caker> | hrm |
| 02:37 | <@inkblot> | several |
| 02:37 | <@inkblot> | i'll check my local uml |
| 02:38 | <@inkblot> | yeah, the uml system i have running at home rotates logs just fine, too |
| 02:38 | <@inkblot> | it's just my linode that's having this problem |
| 02:38 | <@caker> | is it a suid or file permissions thing? |
| 02:39 | <@inkblot> | logrotate runs as root |
| 02:39 | <@caker> | ..dunno, maybe strace would be helpful |
| 02:39 | <@caker> | hmm |
| 02:39 | <@inkblot> | yeah |
| 02:39 | <@inkblot> | muy bizarro |
| 02:40 | <@inkblot> | my roommate's linode is *not* having this problem |
| 02:40 | <@caker> | debian, I assume? |
| 02:40 | <@inkblot> | he's got a L64 on host9 |
| 02:40 | <@inkblot> | yes, debian |
| 02:41 | <@inkblot> | is it possible that i've got an installation from a bad revision of your debian image? |
| 02:41 | <@caker> | not likely.. there were only two debian revisions, and all I did was remove things second time around |
| 02:41 | <@inkblot> | i see |
| 02:42 | <guinea-sleep> | hmm |
| 02:42 | <@caker> | I would expect logrotate.conf or .d/* to mention something about messages, syslog, mail.*, etc ... |
| 02:43 | <@inkblot> | they do not |
| 02:43 | <@caker> | ever? |
| 02:43 | <@inkblot> | nor do they on other systems |
| 02:43 | <@caker> | weird |
| 02:43 | <@inkblot> | i know |
| 02:43 | <@inkblot> | i don't know how logrotate normally does this |
| 02:44 | <guinea-sleep> | syslog isn't done by logrotate |
| 02:44 | <@inkblot> | oh? |
| 02:45 | <@inkblot> | what does? |
| 02:45 | <guinea-sleep> | /etc/cron.d/sysklogd |

| 02:45 | <@inkblot> | that is so dongs |
| 02:47 | * | caker adds -> to-do list |
| 02:47 | <@inkblot> | i suppose something else handles mail.log, auth.log (etc) |

| 02:55 | <guinea-sleep> | alternately, an apt-get install --reinstall sysklogd would've fixed it, which was going to my first suggestion :P |
| 02:56 | <@inkblot> | i did that |

| 02:56 | <guinea-sleep> | oh |

| 10:45 | <Kernel_tux> | guess i was wrong |
| 10:45 | <NeXTer> | Kernel_tux: Besides, the numbers themselves don't mean a thing. It's what you get for the money that matters |
| 10:45 | <@adamg> | at the momment it is at 1.81, a few months ago it was 1.5 |
| 10:45 | <@adamg> | it is usally between 1.4 and 1.7 |
| 10:45 | <Kernel_tux> | hmmm |
| 10:46 | <julia> | it was 1.5 when I visited like 15 years ago |
| 10:46 | <@adamg> | it means a lot of UK companies are buying 1000000s in dollars and will sell them when the rate goes down to 1.4-1.5 again |
| 10:47 | <Kernel_tux> | hmmm |
| 10:47 | <Kernel_tux> | i havent been to the UK.... i have been to ireland though |
| 10:48 | <@adamg> | it basically means that the companies who are buying the dollar at the momment will make about $30 on every £100 |

| 13:58 | * | caker just picked up O'Reilly's Understanding the Linux Kernel and Linus's "Just For Fun" |
| 13:59 | <@adamg> | nice |
| 13:59 | * | julia imagines Linus taking the Abbie Hoffman approach of "Revolution for the hell of it" |
| 13:59 | <julia> | that is a fun visual |
| 14:00 | <@caker> | has anyone seen Triumph of the Nerds? |
| 14:00 | <@caker> | with robert x cringely? |
| 14:01 | <schweeb> | caker: Just For Fun is good |
| 14:01 | <@caker> | schweeb: looking forward to it |
| 14:02 | <schweeb> | I should probably relearn C, and pick up that Kernel book myself |
| 14:03 | <schweeb> | it'd put me above the curve for my Operating Systems class |
| 14:03 | <@caker> | the kernel stuff is a little daunting, but having stared at code for the past year it is slowly making sense |
| 14:03 | <schweeb> | heh |
| 14:04 | <schweeb> | I'm a horrible programmer, but the only way to learn is practice I suppose |
| 14:04 | <@caker> | I used to consume a new tech book about every few weeks .. haven't done that for a few years, so feels good to be back in the swing :) |
| 14:04 | <schweeb> | I don't have that kind of income :-/ |
| 14:05 | <@caker> | hehe books vs education |
| 14:05 | * | caker used gift certificate from his Sister to purchase the books |
| 14:05 | * | caker then writes them off |
| 14:06 | <schweeb> | I have a co-op job (internship) but I don't make much at it |
| 14:06 | <@adamg> | the joy of tax right off's |
| 14:06 | <schweeb> | I like going to a co-op school though, work 3 months, school 3 months, repeat |
| 14:07 | <@caker> | credit for both? |
| 14:07 | <schweeb> | hrm, I suppose I could start writing off books for my job |
| 14:07 | <schweeb> | no, but it's a graduation requirement to have 4 terms or work, and a thesis |
| 14:08 | <@adamg> | arrah |
| 14:08 | <schweeb> | already on my 3rd term, and I'm only a sophomore, so I'm all set wrt working |

| 18:02 | <sighup> | You_Wish: excuse me? |
| 18:02 | <You_Wish> | blah |
| 18:02 | <jax> | RSS is like an xml file that you can download and parse info out of |
| 18:02 | <jax> | like you can get an RSS feed from slashdot, and have a list of headlines on your webpage |
| 18:02 | <You_Wish> | k |
| 18:02 | <You_Wish> | got it |
| 18:02 | <You_Wish> | thanks |
| 18:03 | <jax> | you can download a news reader or aggregator, and download a bunch of feeds periodically to your desktop and read |
| 18:03 | <jax> | kinda vague, but i'm not an expert |

| 19:28 | <@adamg> | spend an hour trying to debug something, that was fecking obvious |
| 19:28 | <NeXTer> | Ohh, I _hate_ those bugs |
| 19:29 | <NeXTer> | Especially cases when you've been staring at it for an hour and someone walks up, points at the screem and says "that doesn't look right, does it?" |
| 19:29 | <@adamg> | it wasnt some things small either |
| 19:29 | <@adamg> | I was subclassing something when I shouldnt have bee |
| 19:29 | <@adamg> | n |
| 19:30 | <@adamg> | it was about 3 lines of code |

| 20:31 | <schweeb> | netsplit or something? |
| 20:31 | <@caker> | could have been the server you connected to ? |
| 20:31 | <@caker> | I didn't see a netsplit |
| 20:31 | <schweeb> | neither did I. whatever. |
| 20:32 | <schweeb> | I know I didn't lose network connectivity, since I stayed connected to my other server |

| 20:33 | <schweeb> | wonder if he's still in Europe... |
| 20:33 | <@adamg> | i am not stuck as I have to work out the best way to lay something out, give me straight coding any day |
| 20:34 | <schweeb> | I'm horrible at coming up with my own design |
| 20:34 | <schweeb> | if someone gave me exactly what they want it to look like, I'm all good. |
| 20:43 | <@caker> | nothing is more intimidating than a blank photoshop document |
| 20:43 | <@adamg> | the actual template is done it is more the best way to link things together etc |
| 20:44 | <@caker> | if you want advice, let me know ... |
| 20:44 | <@adamg> | all I have done at the momment is got the account handling online |
| 20:44 | <@caker> | coffee in the evening is good |
| 20:45 | <@adamg> | and removed alot of warnings about uninitialized values |
| 20:48 | <@adamg> | i think tomorrow I will set-up the site on my linode and see how many nice errors I get |
| 20:51 | <@adamg> | erm the database export is 9 meg |
| 20:52 | <@adamg> | but for now time to get a couple of hours sleep |
| 20:52 | <NeXTer> | As a minor suggestion, make sure PHP has short tags turned off and that it doesn't use global variables... That's a good start |
| 20:53 | <@adamg> | im using perl!! |
| 20:53 | <NeXTer> | *cringe* |
| 20:53 | <NeXTer> | Anyway, sleep sounds good... Night |
| 20:53 | <@caker> | nite Adam |
| 20:53 | <@adamg> | my only problem with perl is that the error messages are shite |
| 20:53 | <@adamg> | well at least some of them are |

| 23:57 | <bji> | I've been thinking about running an Academy server on my Linode |
| 23:57 | <bji> | Just to see how it goes |
| 23:57 | <cOW> | academy server? |
| 23:57 | <cOW> | havent heard of tha |
| 23:57 | <cOW> | t |
| 23:57 | <bji> | Jedi Academy |
| 23:57 | <bji> | It's an online multiplayer game |
| 23:57 | <@caker> | yeah .. I've seen quake3, etc ran on a Linode... |
| 23:57 | <bji> | From Lucas Arts |
| 23:57 | <bji> | Yes it's based on the quake 3 server |
| 23:57 | <bji> | I ran it on my homebuilt firewall |
| 23:58 | <cOW> | caker: is it in the TOS to host porn on a linode? |
| 23:58 | <bji> | Which is only a Via C3 666 Mhz |
| 23:58 | <cOW> | ew... via chip |
| 23:58 | <bji> | And it ran at only like 20% CPU so I figure it is pretty low resource requirements |
| 23:58 | <cOW> | that isnt even an amd :P |
| 23:58 | <@caker> | cOW: No, have you looked? :) |
| 23:58 | <bji> | Hey man that home built firewall has been the BEST Linux box I have ever built |
| 23:58 | <cOW> | err... not yet lo |
| 23:58 | <cOW> | l |
| 23:58 | <bji> | *Every* piece of hardware in that box works flawlessly in Linux |
| 23:58 | <bji> | And has been 100% reliable for 1.5 years now |
| 23:58 | <cOW> | so thats a no is in not allowed |
| 23:59 | <bji> | Anyway ... |
| 23:59 | <@caker> | cOW: no it's not resticted by the TOS |
| 23:59 | <cOW> | hehe nice |
| 23:59 | <cOW> | parfect |
| 23:59 | <@caker> | cOW: just so it is legal, etc.. |
| 23:59 | <cOW> | well ya, im not gonna try to turn a profit off of something illegal :P |
| 23:59 | <cOW> | im no dumbass |
| 23:59 | <@caker> | heh |
