[01:44] <pecisk> hi there, anyone can help me with EVMS? I try to apply evms source patches from evms.sf.net to Edgy kernel, but it says that it is already aplied. It seems in Edgy EVMS patches are included in default, aren't they?
[01:56] <thom> yes
[01:58] <pecisk> ohhh 
[01:58] <pecisk> cool
[01:58] <pecisk> thanks
[01:58] <pecisk> :)
[05:28] <foo> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35091/ - any ideas on this high load? It has to do with apache, if i kill it... the load will go down
[05:28] <foo> It's not a memory issue. I'm thinking it's a disk issue
[07:32] <khermans_> anyone familiar with dhcp3? -- i want all PXE booting hosts to grab the bootfile, but I don't want to specify 1000 hardware addresses manually in the conf file -- any ideas?
[10:45] <lullabud> anybody have any luck connecting with Xnest from ubuntu to CDE on solaris 10?
[11:04] <foo> lullabud: Nope, I haven't tried that
[11:05] <foo> lullabud: What's Xnest and CDE? 
[11:11] <lullabud> dork.
[11:11] <lullabud> i pitty the foo'
[11:11] <foo> :D
[11:16] <lullabud> solaris man, SOLARIS!
[11:16] <lullabud> ...drives me nuts.
[11:18] <maswan> start with installing a better window manager?
[11:18] <lullabud> well, if i could log in in order to get a gui terminal that let's me actually use vim without having buffer problems i could get right on that.
[11:19] <lullabud> i mean, it seems to be all solaris problems.  i can't connect with Xnest from ubuntu or os x.
[11:21] <maswan> doesn't solaris come with a gnome session choice these days by default even?
[11:23] <lullabud> hmm... good question, but the answer is no.  however, it looks like it's working with some alternate java desktop environment instead of CDE.
[11:23] <lullabud> this looks like a windows/gnome frankenstien
[11:23] <lullabud> but hey, it worked!  thanks maswan!
[11:23] <lullabud> the solaris guys weren't even as helpful. :)
[11:36] <kbrooks> hi
[11:36] <jimcooncat> If I do an nfs export, would a 1GB network keep up with a hard drive?
[11:41] <lullabud> jimcooncat:  depends on how much you're transferring.
[11:42] <lullabud> jimcooncat:  it also depends on how much nfs cache you have on the client, and what kind of read/write you're doing.
[11:42] <jimcooncat> thanks lullabud 
[11:43] <jimcooncat> I was curious about performance vs. a local hard drive
[11:43] <lullabud> jimcooncat:  well, it really depends on what you're doing.
[11:43] <jimcooncat> I guess if a lan is faster than an ide bus
[11:44] <lullabud> if you're serving up a web root that's not much size, and you have a large enough local cache for all the files, it will actually go at near local disk speed.
[11:44] <jimcooncat> exporting /home in a busy office
[11:44] <jimcooncat> really
[11:44] <lullabud> ah, true that.  it's surely faster than a single IDE channel.
[11:44] <jimcooncat> a lot of cache
[11:45] <lullabud> i'm not very experienced with it, but that's my understanding of how it works.  files are read from the NFS server, cached locally on the client...
[11:45] <lullabud> so long as the files don't change on the server, they are read off the local cache, if they're still there.
[11:46] <jimcooncat> i wonder if I could preload it back after a reboot
[11:46] <lullabud> i'm sure there are ways to do that.  even if they're hacks.
[11:47] <jimcooncat> Never mind, I'd have to be saving the cache state all the time
[11:47] <lullabud> the local cache is on disk anyways.
[11:47] <lullabud> actually....
[11:48] <lullabud> i don't know that for sure.
[11:48] <jimcooncat> oh, I didn't realize you were talking a hard disk cache
[11:48] <jimcooncat> I thought you meant RAM
[11:49] <lullabud> honestly, i hadn't even considered the idea that it would store it merely in RAM.  i assumed it'd have a disk cache... it would make sense that it could be configured either way.
[11:49] <lullabud> looks like http://nfs.sf.net has a lot of good info.
[11:49] <jimcooncat> good, thanks for the link
[11:51] <lullabud> y/w
