jb-homeWow, traffic in this channel.  I didn't think it ever happened. =)12:12

tuhlnot so many people here :-)03:27
fabbioneright :)03:27
fabbionebut it takes away noise from -server :)03:28
fabbioneand you can discuss more quietly ;)03:28
tuhlzUbuntu will be a server based variant03:28
fabbionetuhl: yes. considering zSeries can't fit under my desk :)03:29
daq4thok, what about the build-system? launchpad-buildd seems not to be available for the general public ...03:29
tuhlthere migth be a pUbuntu aswell03:29
tuhlas I mentioned there will be some additional packages to make it the best distro on zSeries03:30
tuhlVM is a very intersting technology03:31
daq4thand maybe some additions within initscripts ....03:31
fabbionei strongly suggest 2 things03:31
daq4thi dont know how much of that stuff is derived from debian and how much they did for the 2.6 kernel stuff on zSeries03:31
tuhlit should be possible to do some sysadmin jobs form the Linux side03:31
fabbionemake your changes as generic as possebile for general integration03:31
daq4thsure03:32
fabbioneor make them as specific as possible to be able to keep them isolated from the other arches03:32
fabbioneotherwise there will be problem to mesh standard ubuntu with you03:32
fabbioneand viceversa03:32
tuhlfabbione: of yourse03:32
tuhlcourse03:32
fabbionedaq4th: you will discuss the buildd with infinity tomorrow :)03:33
fabbionedaq4th: there are several vars to keep into account.03:33
fabbione<- sparc porter03:33
tuhlwe will do that03:33
tuhlyou did the sparc port?03:33
fabbione98% of it03:34
tuhlI will get a T1000 soon03:34
fabbionenice toy03:34
fabbionebut linux can't run on it yet03:34
tuhlfrom Sun Germayn03:34
tuhlGermany03:34
tuhlDo you have experiences with Mono on SPARC?03:35
fabbionethere is no Mono on sparc03:35
fabbionenot on linux at least03:36
tuhlok 03:36
fabbioneyou can run mono on slowlaris03:36
tuhlit is Solaris03:36
tuhlyou are right03:36

case_ping?10:24
shinmenpong10:28
case_:)10:29
case_i'm trying to compile some stuff in 64bits mode on my ubuntu-sparc64, but i have some troubles10:30
shinmencase_, What are you trying to?10:30
case_i'm trying to compile pov-ray with CFLAGS="-m64" CXXFLAGS="-m64"10:31
case_in pov-ray, there is c sources and C++ sources10:31
case_the c compiles with -m64 without any complaint10:31
case_but the C++ is another story10:31
shinmencase_, Any real advantage in having pov-ray in 64 bit userspace?10:32
case_(in 32bits it compiles just fine)10:32
case_shinmen: that's what i want to know :) 10:33
shinmen'cause it's like a sort of a FAQ.. I've seen it in debian, splack and gentoo. People think that having stuff in 64 bit userspace will make them run them faster, but only a handfull of aplications take advantage of it, and it's mainly when they are going to use a huge ammount of memory. And I do mean huge.10:34
case_yes i know that (well, that 64bits support is most of the time usefull when you need more than 4Gb of memory)10:36
case_but a friend of mine think that double precision floating point will benefit too...10:37
case_so, urban legend you say ?10:38
shinmenWell, it could help some aplications, but only a hand full. Pov-ray could be a nice candidate.10:39
shinmencase_, Error?10:40
case_a brunch of : /usr/include/c++/4.0.2/iosfwd:45:29: error: bits/c++locale.h: No such file or directory10:41
case_(and others headers too)10:41
shinmencase_, Does /usr/include/c++/4.0.3/sparc64-linux-gnu/bits/c++locale.h exist?10:42
case_no10:43
case_i only have a 4.0.2 directory, and no sparc64-linux-gnu directory10:43
case_just sparc-linux-gnu10:43
shinmenHmm... this is an u80 with dapper... I shutdown my box at home a couple of ours ago.10:44
case_i was looking for somthing like libstdc++ 64 but found nothing...10:44
case_lokking for, in apt-cache....10:44
shinmenalvaro@quassar:~$ dpkg -l|grep 64 |grep ^ii|wc -l10:45
shinmen910:45
shinmen (including an smp kernel)10:45
case_case@soylent:~$ dpkg -l|grep 64 |grep ^ii|wc -l10:46
case_710:46
case_(without an smp kernel)10:46
shinmen$ dpkg -S c++locale.h10:48
shinmenlibstdc++6-4.0-dev: /usr/include/c++/4.0.3/sparc-linux-gnu/bits/c++locale.h10:48

case_libstdc++6-4.0-dev: /usr/include/c++/4.0.2/sparc-linux-gnu/bits/c++locale.h10:49
case_that's the problem10:49
shinmenGonna try it here. U80 with 3 procs...10:50
case_I ... hate ... you! :)))10:50
case_ok so i'll probably have to upgrade to a draper, no?10:50
shinmencase_, Let me try it here first... if it won't work here, I'll save you a bit of trouble.10:51
case_rigth, thanks10:52
shinmennp.10:52
shinmenDone compiling.10:59
shinmen$ file unix/povray11:00
shinmenunix/povray: ELF 64-bit MSB executable, SPARC V9, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.4.18, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped11:00
shinmencase_, Please let me know how the benchmarks go.11:01
case_\0/11:03
case_great, so i have to update to dapper11:04
shinmencase_, I could send you the binaries if you'd like.11:05
case_thanks but it's cleaner that way11:05
shinmenOk. And you should trust other people's binaries.11:05
shinmen(Aldo I'm the splack developer if anyone has a real urge for trusting my binaries :)11:06
case_:)11:07
case_wow, splack, i wasn't aware of that... seems realy cool11:13
shinmenDumped project... I changed where I work, and the guys from the old job (or anyone else for that matter) haven't shown interesnt in keep it going so I only have a personal up to date repository.11:15
shinmenbbl11:15
case_cu11:15
=== case_ prays and reboots
case_of course, i've broken SILO >_<11:37
shinmenOuch.11:39
case_i've booted on the install cd and i've now a shell, but i dont' find my /dev/hda...11:40
case_wow... i've just fixed one of the worst dependency mess i've ever seen... (ok ok, i'm not that experienced ;))12:00
