_|ms|_good evening :D18:42
_|ms|_anybody available for a short question about the *.conf files?18:43
_|ms|_esp. tty18:43
sadmacI'm here-ish18:47
_|ms|_hi sadmac218:47
_|ms|_oops :D18:47
_|ms|_-2 :D18:47
_|ms|_well it's because of my ttys18:48
_|ms|_I would like them to start AFTER all other services started18:48
_|ms|_but there is no: start on started startup, right?18:48
_|ms|_I had a png file with the patches but don't find it again :D18:49
sadmac_|ms|_: no. There's no real way to do that (to an extend there's no reason to do that. To another extent we're designing 0.10 to address that sort of problem.)18:49
_|ms|_well... the need is: it looks much better :D18:50
_|ms|_if you are logging in and there are some processes starting up and show their output... it's not pretty :D18:50
sadmacyou should be logging that. don't do it on the same tty18:51
_|ms|_why not? shouldn't the user get what's happening?!18:52
sadmac_|ms|_: its happening too fast to read anyway :) and I don't know who your users are, but mine don't typically care18:53
sadmac(I package for Fedora)18:53
sadmacOnly time the user cares about that noise is if something breaks.18:53
_|ms|_hmm, you are right :D18:54
_|ms|_but I like that lines :D18:54
_|ms|_hmm another idea how to beautify the boot process?18:56
sadmac_|ms|_: hlh booted on a netbook in 5 seconds at last LPC.18:56
sadmac_|ms|_: don't beautify it. Make it so fast the user isn't aware it happened.18:56
_|ms|_hlh?18:57
sadmac_|ms|_: actually not hlh18:57
sadmac_|ms|_: Arjan Van De Ven18:57
_|ms|_it is a person^18:57
sadmackernel guy for Intel18:57
sadmacyes18:57
sadmache did it with Fedora and with another distro (I want to say SUSE)18:57
_|ms|_most of my systems have a lot of networking to start (this will always take a lot of time)18:58
_|ms|_don't say suse :D18:58
_|ms|_well, you're an employee of redhat?!18:58
sadmac_|ms|_: the user could be doing useful work in that time. why make them wait on the network coming up?18:58
sadmac_|ms|_: Yes, but not in a development capacity. Upstart/Fedora are on my own time.18:59
_|ms|_it's a firewall :D18:59
sadmac...then why does it have users at all? :)18:59
_|ms|_oh... but U dunno when there is a kernel 2.6.30 for fedora?! :D18:59
_|ms|_hmm, there is me working on console :D18:59
_|ms|_work is much easier if it is coloured :D19:00
sadmac_|ms|_: looks like we skipped .30 and went straight to the .31-rc*s19:01
sadmachttp://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=819:01
sadmac^^no promises that any of those work with F11 (or at all :)19:01
_|ms|_I don't expect a new kernel for f1119:01
_|ms|_but I need a wifi module for my netbook :D19:01
_|ms|_it's not fun having a netbook without wireless19:02
sadmacwell you can try the rawhide kernel then19:02
sadmacor build your own. The config is saved in /boot19:02
sadmacyou'll want to edit to turn your driver on of course19:02
_|ms|_the module is in staging in 2.6.29, but have you ever extracted a fedora kernel srpm, changed the config and tried to build it?!19:03
_|ms|_doesn't work19:03
sadmacNot by that exact process but I've rebuilt kernels.19:04
_|ms|_I will try this later again :D rawhide seems to be a good idea...19:04
_|ms|_would you like to review my upstart scripts?! http://git.ipfire.org/?p=ipfire-3.x.git;a=tree;f=src/initscripts;h=7526a01c3abc85996d9a19811a4c7a637db9f5a2;hb=HEAD19:04
_|ms|_you changed my thinking about the boot process in the last few minutes :D19:05
sadmaclemme get back to work. maybe when I get home :)19:05
_|ms|_okay :D19:05
_|ms|_tell me why i screwed this up^19:06
