[02:03] <supervillain> Hello, how do I check the Release.gpg file validity manually?
[04:45] <supervillain> hello, is there a way to check each .deb file locally from the internet?
[04:46] <supervillain> I want to check it's md5 and signature validity
[10:22] <[miles] > morning guys
[10:22] <[miles] > does anyone know how to select a different kernel when installing? I want to run UBS 6.06LTS as a guest in VirtualBox, but it does not work with the SMP kernel
[10:47] <lionel> [miles] : iirc all kernels have smp enabled since 6.06
[10:47] <[miles] > hi lionel 
[10:47] <[miles] > mmm ok
[10:47] <lionel> hi [miles] 
[10:47] <[miles] > you know of vbox?
[10:47] <lionel> How are you ?
[10:47] <[miles] > I'm fine mate, just banging on with all this PHP coding :-\
[10:48] <lionel> Yes, I know, but i never give it a try
[10:48] <[miles] > it's good...
[10:48] <[miles] > fast...
[10:48] <[miles] > I have a W2K guest, and it runs real smooth, and much faster and smoother than vmware 
[10:48] <lionel> I use VMware here
[10:49] <[miles] > lionel, give vbox a whirl
[10:49] <lionel> The good thing with vmware is that it is easy to install and you do not have bad surprise
[10:50] <[miles] > jaja
[10:50] <[miles] > yeah, if you host box ain't 64 bit
[10:50] <[miles] > then it's a pain
[10:50] <[miles] > believe me
[10:50] <lionel> I have a 64 bit box, but install it in 32bits ;)
[10:51] <lionel> I think there is a Debian ITP for VirtualBox
[10:51] <lionel> maybe for Feisty+1 :)
[10:54] <[miles] > no idea
[10:54] <[miles] > you install 32bit Ubuntu yeah?
[10:54] <[miles] > actually I might do the same...
[10:54] <[miles] > I'm sick of buggy flash and no acroread etc
[10:55] <lionel> for the VMware box, yeah, I installed 32bit
[10:55] <lionel> for other server, I use 64bit systems
[10:56] <lionel> but all the 64bit desktops system here have 32bit Ubuntu
[11:00] <[miles] > ok
[11:01] <[miles] > I think I will reinstall my work desktop, and swap to Kubuntu also
[11:01] <lionel> damned :)
[11:02] <[miles] > ?
[11:02] <lionel> KDE is evel (just kiding !)
[11:04] <[miles] > jeje
[11:04] <[miles] > gnome sucks
[09:02] <gubluntu> How do i get my server to consult localhost running bind9 for an answer on a A record query? (i.e. i am behind a firewall and my postfix cant deliver mail to iself using an external address, so i need it to return an internal one locally)
[09:02] <gubluntu> ...o just read topic.. sorry
[11:10] <eamonn> hi, just want to mention that the latest update to the kernel on feisty-server doesn't boot on my test machine. I had to escape out on grub and choose 2.6.20-9-server (instead of 10). What logs do you need?
[11:10] <eamonn> I'm not sure I created any, actually. It wasn't able to mount root, which is on RAID5. I ended up stuck in busybox.
[11:14] <eamonn> The problem I had looks very similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/feisty/+source/mdadm/+bug/75681. I have three SATA drives, 320GB each, configured as RAID5. However /boot and swap are on small, non-raid partitions (on the first and second drives, respectively).
