LjL"How to get the kernel source"01:26
LjLit says Git is the preferred method over apt-getting it01:26
LjLthat doesn't sound right to me01:26
Picihm01:27
stdinmaybe for devs, but not for users...01:29
LjLthat statement has been there for a long time though, i just never noticed01:29
LjLactually, it has been there forever, since the first revision by Ben Collins01:30
LjLand who am i to contradict Collins... still01:30
stdinadd a "note" there, like "Unless you are going to hack the kernel you can user apt-get...."01:33
LjLstdin: maybe the issue is that the .deb package doesn't include security patches while git does, though01:33
stdinwell "apt-get source linux-image-$(uname -r)" will get the source of the kernel you're running01:34
LjLthat's true as well01:36
LjLedited, have a look01:37

Evanleci didnt know it warned you01:53
Evanleci thot it just listed who was op01:53
LjLehm, [01:52:23]  <Evanlec> like when someone was acting up, someone would type !ops|<nick> to warn them i guess?01:53
Evanlecright, to warn the perpetrator...01:53

troubledheya01:57
LjLhi troubled, this sort of thing is better talked about in here than in #ubuntu01:57
LjLexcuse me just one thing, but, while i do know what you were talking about... i don't think i know you?01:57
troubledahh np, been in #debian many many years01:58
troubledi designed a db logger though that i use now to help out in channels and #freenode01:58
LjLright, my logs did point to "#debian" :)01:58
troubledit allows < 1sec queries on many thing. the one i paste was a list of all hosts for a nick, followed by another select of all nicks with those hosts. helps catch all their ips01:59
LjLtroubled: how exactly do you put all the different nicks and IPs together?01:59
LjLi.e. since he changes everything - ident, IP, nick, how do you correlate?02:00
LjLoh, so there's still a manual "guessing of the host" involved... interesting though02:00
troubledsec, ill paste the sql for my select. it will make more sense02:01
PiciI think I understand what troubled is doing.02:01
troubledselect id,nick,ident_name,sub.hostname from view_user_id as uid,02:01
troubled(select distinct(hostname) from view_user_id where nick = 'zewb') as sub02:01
troubledwhere sub.hostname = uid.hostname02:01
troubledorder by id02:01
troubledthe main select is all the hosts for "zewb" in this case. then i take that list and reselect from the same table all the nicks which have those hosts.02:01
PiciWhat client are you using to catch this stuff with?02:02
troubledits not perfect by any means, but it can help spot the obvious ones02:02
troubledirssi02:02
LjLtroubled: ah, it's much clearer that way, my SQL is way rusty02:02
troubledsvn://ircdetective.dyndns.org:27474 if your interested. irssi+perl+mysql atm02:02
Picitroubled: I'll definitly take a look02:02
LjLi don't use irssi, but it's still interesting02:03
troubledalthough imMute has developed a "cleaning" implementation from scratch against my db schema as well. #ircdetective if your interested in them though02:03
LjLhad thought of something like that at times02:03
LjLbut my client is so limited as far as scripting is concerned, that i'd have to write a whole irc proxy - or change client02:03
troubledits handy. although irssi blocks on inserts, so splits and floods can slow the irssi down until i get queue's implemented02:03
PiciI started to put together an irssi plugin to use the built in massjoin signals to alert me when something starts happening.  02:04
troubledPici: well, i dont have any alerts yet. i do have plans for some irssi /commands to do the look ups, but for now i just use an sql window and put in the selects that im after manually. i have views setup to do all the joins to save me time as well02:05

troubledPici: http://pastebin.ca/raw/717955 is about what im running for db size. and i still get < 1sec on 99% of the queries i do. and an index usually solves any of the slow ones. plus the design makes for small db dumps. thats about 400mb on disk, and only 50mb bz2 on a dump02:11

jdongof course #ubuntuforums doesn't really count for much of #*buntu*-dom04:11
gnomefreakpython doesnt use ifelse does it?04:12
Jucatojdong: forgive my  ignorance.. but I've always been confused as to the relationship of ubuntuforums.org with #ubuntuforums04:12
jdonggnomefreak: clarify?04:12
jdongJucato: lol the relationship is indeed extremely unclear....04:13
jdongJucato: #uf was started by two people who were on the staff of ubuntuforums....04:13
jdongJucato: but apart from that, it has no relation with the forums, other than any uf.org staff member wanting ops on #uf can have it04:13
gnomefreakjdong: in py code example (and accurate) do ...ifelse {2*3=b] 04:13
jdongJucato: it is a lower-standards, less-enforced environment than uf.org04:13
jdonggnomefreak: no, that is not python syntax...04:14
gnomefreakC uses ifelse staments04:14
gnomefreakjdong: what does py use in place of ifelse?04:14
jdongI am not familiar with that statement being a part of C either04:14

Jucatooperative word: might04:14
gnomefreakjdong: hold on ill give you exact syntax for C04:15
gnomefreaki know C uses if(....) i could swear it uses ifelse after if if if is not correct04:16
jdonggnomefreak: you mean if / else if / else if / else type conditional branching?04:16
JucatoC uses if () else if () else if ()... no ifelse or elseif04:17
gnomefreakyes but i could swear C uses if(b==null) /n ifelse04:17

jdongpython uses if / elsif / elsif / else04:19
jdongor was it elif?04:19
jdongwhichever shows up in color in your editor!04:19
gnomefreaknever heard of cls()04:19
gnomefreaki just saw that 04:19
nixternaljdong: hahahahah, that is what I do when working with idiotic languages04:19
nixternaljust type something until it changes color, then you know it is OK :p04:19
jdongnixternal: you know what's one thing I loved about MS Visual Studio?04:20
nixternalintellicomplete or whatever they call it?04:20
jdongnixternal: press alt+space, and the IDE tells you everything that you could possibly put in there and still have the code compile!04:20
nixternalor, how it drops down a billion solutions04:20
jdongand it is generally indeed intelligent04:20
nixternaljdong: you can do the same with netbeans for not only java, but also for C/C++ now04:20
Picijdong: I think eclipse does the same thing, and some other IDEs04:20
nixternaleclipse is just ummm....I will leave that one alone04:20
jdongnixternal: NetBeans/Eclipse are both slower at doing it....04:21
jdongnixternal: not to mention less accurate04:21
PiciEclipse is slow at doing a lot of things.04:21
nixternalnetbeans is actually the quickest I have seen for *nix04:21
jdongI don't think they'll catch like FooType b(foo,bar); b=<alt+space>04:21
nixternalI have tried everything04:21
PiciI've been meaning to try out netbeans..04:21
jdongVS will only pick things that are compatible with FooType04:21
nixternalwith netbeans, I can even do Qt work and it does the autocomplete and includes the apidocs04:21
jdongnixternal: netbeans is fastest in *nix04:21
jdongfor autocomplete04:22
nixternaleclipse always crashes on me04:22
jdongnixternal: but it comes nowhere REMOTELY close to VS04:22
jdongsomehow MS did magic on that part04:22
nixternalno ide comes remotely close to VS04:22
Picinixternal: Me too. 04:22
jdongI used VS7 on a 233MHz system04:22

coreymon77i know thats a lot of layers04:52
jdongdo you run OS X or Linux on your macbook04:52
jdong(wow this is OT)04:52
coreymon77epecially since my kubuntu box is right beside me04:52

jdongstdin: OSX86 native is the way to go04:56
coreymon77jdong: you mean running it on an actual mac right?04:56
jdongcoreymon77: or a very very nicely thought out/hacked hackintosh setup04:56
coreymon77jdong: because osx86 means running it on not a mac04:56
jdongcoreymon77: moral/legal issues aside04:56
stdinI used the PPC version, because it has "Power" in it's name04:56
stdin:)04:56
jdongcoreymon77: I respect the people who actually get OSX running on non-apple hardware through their own hard work and ingenuity04:57
coreymon77so do i04:57
jdongI am disgusted by those who download some random torrent, fail to read SIMPLE instructions to set it up... then walk off saying OS X sucks.04:57
coreymon77but, even the huge pirate that i am, apple is probably the one company id rather not pirate from04:57
jdongcoreymon77: I'd consider hackintosh to be an educational exercise, not a permanent replacement for a mac04:58
coreymon77for apple stuff, id rather actually pay for it, get it normally04:58
jdongcoreymon77: Apple's current pricing schemes ofr their OS'es is pretty reasonable to me for the quality product I am getting....04:58
coreymon77if course04:58
jdongcoreymon77: and the most crucial part of the Apple experience for me is I don't worry a bit about the system. Apple's products and services take care of it for me04:59
coreymon77its the same thing as saying running doze xp with vmware is the same thing as running it natively04:59
stdinshame Apple are EVIL tho04:59
jdongI dislike Apple's deliberate practice of locking out their hardware from software modifications04:59
jdongi.e. how the new-generation iPods are all firmware-encrypted05:00
jdongand most likely will never ever get rockbox05:00
coreymon77no matter what you do, stuff like hackintosh with never be the same as getting a real mac05:00
jdongcoreymon77: not to say that you can't get very very close :)05:00
jdongwith enough Darwin elbow grease05:00
coreymon77too much work05:00
jdongaye05:00
jdongsome people consider it "fun" though :)05:01
jdongi'm one of those, when I am not bogged down with schoolwork05:01
coreymon77with all the time you spend trying to get it to work, you could probably earn enough money to buy a real mac in the first place05:01
jdongaye, but then you don't get to learn about OS X's guts :)05:01
jdongooh EFI update...05:02
coreymon77i know the major complaint about macs are they are more pricet05:02
coreymon77pricey*05:02
coreymon77jdong: i know, i got it earlier today05:02
jdongcoreymon77: I don't agree with that complaint :)05:02
coreymon77and its true05:02
coreymon77they are more expensive05:02
coreymon77but05:02
jdongcoreymon77: I think Apple's very price-competitive at their formfactor05:02
jdongcoreymon77: I was never intending on getting a macbook actually... I was merely looking at lightweight compact notebooks05:02
coreymon77what im saying is that this macbook was not cheap05:02
jdongcoreymon77: and could not find a comparable PC one at similar prices, that oculd stand a chance of running a *nix OS05:03
coreymon77jdong: specs?05:03
jdongcoreymon77: 3rd gen 2.16 c2d, 2GB RAM, 160GB  HDD, 1399 or so05:03
jdongI was trying to build comparable systems at lenovo and dell in the same size factor05:04
jdongand could not match Apple's prices05:04

jdongcoreymon77: where do you live?05:06
coreymon77sorry, dont say that stuf05:06
coreymon77and my dad just got a dell that with rebate was under 100005:07
coreymon77so this was definitely more expensive05:07
coreymon77but the difference is05:07
coreymon773-5 years from now05:07
coreymon77i could and may still be using this thing05:07
jdongcoreymon77: Dell's in his price range are not in the same hardware/quality class as Apples.05:07
coreymon77which is much more than i can say about any dell computer05:07
coreymon77sure, macs are more expensive, there is no denying that mathematically05:08
coreymon77but they are better comptuers05:08
coreymon77its higher quallity05:08
stdin(in your opinion)05:08
coreymon77this laptop is gonna last me a good long while05:08
jdongooh fantastic, looks like new EFI update fixed the keyboard race condition on safe-sleep resume05:09
jdongwith trial count of 2.05:09
coreymon77huh?05:09
coreymon77i dont even know what that firmware thing did05:09
jdongcoreymon77: it is a common MB/MBP bug that if a system goes into hibernation sleep (i.e. you set sleepmode>=3 via pmuset, or you lost battery while system was in normal sleep), the keyboard might be deead upon resume05:10
jdongit happens with 80%+ frequency05:10
jdongI have done 5 cycles of this now, and cannot reproduce the bug anymore.05:11
coreymon77oh, never knew that05:11
jdongfew people ever test the deep sleep ting05:12
jdongit's  a hidden feature of the OS activated by some shell-scripting hackjobs05:12
coreymon77i just do the close the lid sleep thing05:12
jdongthat is the hybrid safe-sleep05:12
jdongit does a hibernate (write out to disk), but then goes into sleep05:12
jdongso if your power source stays alive, wakeup will be instant wake from sleep05:12
jdongbut if you lose your battery, the system just resumes from hibernate by copying from disk to RAM05:13
jdongin the latter scenario it was common for the system to resume with a dead keyboard05:13
jdongcommonly reported on mac forums with no workaround05:13
coreymon77technobabble05:13
jdongit is rumored to be a race-condition in the EFI where the system assigns the IR controller the job of being keyboard05:13
