[01:06] <antdedyet> anyone not having problems with gutsy + kvm-intel module?
[01:08] <antdedyet> only recently did the kvm-source + kvm pkg installation on a recent intel machine with vmx cpu flags and ran m-a a-i kvm, haven't tried rebooting and am getting lots of unresolved symbol messages in dmesg when trying to load the module: kvm-intel

[15:45] <mango> Hi.  I am looking at installing Ubuntu Server with RAID1.  Which download would you recommend - the standard Server Install CD, or the much larger Alternate Install CD which is said to specifically support LVM and RAID?
[15:47] <mango> It isn't clear if the Alternate Install CD is intended for desktop or server use or both.
[15:52] <mralphabet> mango: is it hardware raid or were you planning on using mdadm (linux software raid)?
[15:52] <mralphabet> mango: either way, both should work with the standard server install disk
[15:53] <mralphabet> mango: if you are trying to support some wacky onboard "raid" controller, that may be different
[15:54] <mango> Just software RAID using mdadm.  I was wondering why that would be treated separately, based on the notes for the Alternate Install CD.
[15:55] <mralphabet> the alternate cd is . . . more for the wacky installs
[15:56] <mango> software RAID should be very standard now, so nothing wacky there.
[15:56] <mango> Thanks then, I will just use the standard Server Install download.
[15:57] <mralphabet> when I set up my mdadm mirror for the boot drives, it was on the standard server install disks, there were no problems.
[16:01] <mango> I have just been using SME Server for a corporate server, and that configures RAID1 out of the box if it finds two or more drives.  I like that distro a lot for that type of application, but now I want to build a dedicated mail server for an ISP for which I don't think that SME is flexible enough.  I have been experimenting with Debian for a while, but like the Ubuntu approach, so want to give that a go.
[16:03] <mango> Have you any suggestions for an open source ISP billing systems that could be used on the server?
[16:04] <mralphabet> open source isp billing system?  Is there such a thing?
[16:06] <mango> I have not found anything so far, but it is an essential requirement for any ISP.  At the moment we are using a very old package written in house in Visual Basic.
[18:48] <osmosis> anyone know how to reset a drive on a 3ware controller that has timed out ?
[21:24] <david__> I have some problems with name resolution on my server. My internal network is named "local". When I ping the router, it fails and shows the address 127.0.0.1, any idea?
