| 10:22 | mael | hi aliguori |
| 10:22 | aliguori | hi mael |
| 10:24 | mael | aliguori: your stub on busybox/uclibc don't mention buildroot, is it normal? |
| 10:24 | aliguori | 3. Use the uClibc build root |
| 10:25 | aliguori | ... |
| 10:25 | mael | aaah that's it |
| 10:25 | aliguori | you do need to use buildroot |
| 10:25 | mael | I was confused by the fact they now have a separate website |
| 10:26 | | * mael could not figure out out to say busybox to use uclibc otherwise |
| 10:26 | aliguori | :) |

| 10:27 | mael | well anyway I'm stuck : I don't have any space left on my computer at the moment to build the whole stuff |
| 10:27 | mael | I'll try next week (probably on monday) |
| 10:27 | aliguori | let me know how it goes |
| 10:28 | mael | yeah sure |
| 10:28 | --- | User: *** knewt_ is now known as knewt |
| 10:28 | mael | do you have any advice about the feature i have to include in the build? |
| 10:28 | mael | (mandatory ones for example) |
| 10:29 | aliguori | not really... if you're using vm-tools it's pretty minimal |
| 10:29 | aliguori | only really requires pty support |
| 10:29 | mael | ok |
| 10:29 | mael | python is probably a big mess |
| 10:29 | aliguori | i'm sure, but it's supposed to compile with uclibc |
| 10:30 | mael | yeah, I saw the "python" entry in the config |

| 10:32 | aliguori | has anyone seen this article about hyper-threading security problems? |
| 10:32 | hollis | nope |
| 10:33 | mael | aliguori: URL? |
| 10:34 | aliguori | http://www.daemonology.net/hyperthreading-considered-harmful/ |
| 10:35 | aliguori | reading the paper now |
| 10:35 | riel | ohhh, it's online now ? |
| 10:35 | | * riel prints |
| 10:35 | aliguori | looks like it's a timing analysis that allows for discovery of portions of a computed key |
| 10:35 | aliguori | just enough to make it factorable |
| 10:35 | mael | hehe great |
| 10:36 | mael | then you have to add a small amount of plutonium in HT CPU to get a real source of entropy |
| 10:37 | aliguori | seems like openssl could just through it off by doing some random garbage calculations while generating a key |
| 10:38 | mael | hum, so no radioactive stuff in server room then? |
| 10:38 | mael | too bad |
| 10:39 | murble | mael: in the smoke detectors :-) |
| 10:39 | | * mael was about to ask for a risk incentive |

| 10:43 | mael | :) |
| 10:43 | soffi | you tell me :) |
| 10:47 | hollis | aliguori: ugh, this reminds me of having to think about math in school... a most unpleasent experience :) |
| 10:48 | aliguori | hollis: yeah, that's why i just skipped large portions of it |

| 12:39 | tessier | Oy vey! |
| 12:39 | tessier | You guys are difficult to find. |
| 12:39 | tessier | First place I looked was #xen on freenode but nooo... :) |
| 12:39 | soffi | I've been hiding |
| 12:39 | matta | me too |
| 12:41 | tessier | So I installed xen 2.0.5 on my box...when it boots it says "Initial guest OS requires too much memory". I googled and found only one reference to this outside of the error message itself in the source by someone name yosh in this channel about a month ago. |
| 12:41 | tessier | Someone suggested he search the gmane archives (which I did) but he never came back and said he found anything (which I did not). |
| 12:41 | tessier | So I am wondering if anyone knows anything about this... |
| 12:41 | tessier | There was speculation in the chat at the time that it had something to do with an initrd. |
| 12:41 | matta | are you setting dom0_mem on the xen command line? |
| 12:42 | tessier | yep |
| 12:42 | tessier | dom0_mem=128M |
| 12:43 | tessier | I would think 128M should be enough. |
| 12:43 | tessier | I believe that is what the documentation I read to set up grub used as the example also. |
| 12:44 | tessier | oooh...a wiki |
| 12:45 | riel | tessier: the wiki even contains a pointer to this irc channel ;) |
| 12:45 | tessier | How convenient. A shame the only pointer to the wiki is this irc channel. :) |
| 12:45 | tessier | The only one I have run across so far anyhow... |
| 12:45 | riel | the wiki should be linked from other places |
| 12:46 | tessier | riel: I heard you had been playing with X in xen. How's that working out? |
| 12:46 | aliguori | tessier: 2.0.5 does not support suffixes |
| 12:46 | riel | it works on some systems, not others ;) |
| 12:46 | aliguori | you have to specify the memory in kilobytes |
| 12:46 | riel | I haven't had time to figure out why |
| 12:46 | aliguori | it's doing atoi("128M") which gives 128k which is not nearly enough memory |
| 12:47 | hollis | riel: where in the wiki? I don't see it, and neither does the search function |
| 12:47 | tessier | aliguori: ah...might want to update the user manual then. :) It says =128M |
| 12:47 | riel | hollis: developer resources or something like that |
| 12:47 | aliguori | tessier: actually, the user manual was just updated |
| 12:47 | aliguori | to say 128M instead of 131072 |
| 12:47 | hollis | ah. well, I guess that hides it from users with problems :) |
| 12:48 | aliguori | i think 2.0-testing has suffix support too now |
| 12:48 | tessier | I see. So the user manual applies to the testing version, not the binaries currently available for download from the website...ok |
| 12:49 | tessier | Well, I'm gonna reboot then and see if it's happy now. Hopefully I will be irc'ing from domain0 in a few minutes. :) |
| 12:49 | tessier | Thanks for the tip. |
| 12:49 | aliguori | np |

| 13:05 | tessier | Sweet! |
| 13:06 | tessier | I had to specify my FC4 initrd because it couldn't open a console in addition to changing the way the memory allocation and now I'm up and running. |
| 13:06 | tessier | X works fine in domain0 |
| 13:07 | aliguori | tessier: cool :-) |
| 13:08 | tessier | hah....of course now it's swapping like mad because I only gave it 256M of RAM to load Gnome and all of my apps into. :) |
| 13:08 | tessier | Time to learn how that balloon thing works... |
| 13:18 | tessier | hmm... /usr/sbin/xm balloon Domain-0 384 does not seem to be having any effect. Not producint an error but not changing the output of the free command which still indicates 128M of ram. Nor does the xm list command output change. |
| 13:30 | tessier | Also: What's up with the mailing list? I have been trying to subscribe for a couple of days but never receive the subscription confirmation message to reply to. |
| 13:30 | tessier | Are subscriptions being moderated and the moderator is falling behind?? |
| 13:31 | tessier | er..s/?// |
| 13:32 | tessier | The balloon docs clearly say it takes megs as the argument but I just tried k just in case this is similar to the previoius problem and no change. |
| 13:33 | tessier | 147M into swap...nice. :) |
| 13:35 | tessier | ah-hah...found an answer to my memory problem in the mailing list archives. Need to set mem= to the max. |

| 18:10 | Squink | Yo. Since I installed Xen, this started happening: iptables v1.2.9: can't initialize iptables table `filter': iptables who? (do you need to insmod?) // Any ideas why? |
| 18:12 | caker | Squink: iptables isn't compiled into your dom kernel? |
| 18:16 | Squink | I'm not sure, I used the binary files in the end.. |
| 18:16 | Squink | Could i not add it in grub.conf? |
| 18:17 | caker | add what? |
| 18:17 | Squink | dunno |
| 18:17 | caker | maybe you just need to insmod iptables, like the warning suggests? |
| 18:17 | Squink | insmod: can't read 'iptables': No such file or directory |
| 18:17 | caker | I'm not sure if iptables is compiled with the binary install |
| 18:18 | Squink | ah jees. now what? :) |
| 18:19 | | * Squink ponders |
| 18:19 | Squink | there must be a way to fix this without having to recompile the kernel |
| 18:20 | caker | yeah, just compile the module against the same kernel source |
| 18:21 | Squink | oh i just thought of something |
| 18:21 | Squink | I can revert back to my non-SKAS kernel |
| 18:22 | Squink | which most likely has iptables support |
| 18:22 | Squink | unless that's set in the xen kernel =/ |
| 18:22 | Squink | of which i dont have the source for anyway since i used the binary =) |
| 18:24 | Squink | ah nope |
| 18:24 | Squink | that didnt fix it =/ |
