DavieyVolvo: reading scrollback... i don't care much for your attitude.00:34
DavieyVolvo: If zul was around, do you think with your comments he is likely to try and help?00:36
DavieyI don't think i would be inclined to help.00:36
VolvoDaviey: If it got fixed in a while id like it. I dont think my input was bad when all i want to do is to help fix a bug. Do you ?00:45
Daviey''<Volvo> -Because if you cant make a pckage out of perfectly working software id call you a loosely knit team of ... Politichians ?'00:53
DavieyVolvo: So, which bug # is this?00:54
Volvotry to start "nmbd"00:56
VolvoItll stop running just about directly and so the server or computer its runing on cannot be found.00:58
DavieyVolvo: yes, but what bug number is this?01:01
VolvoI guess one could give it a quick search01:02
DavieyVolvo: please01:02
VolvoIf i was you, and im not trying to be bad or anything. Then id care and try to start "nmbd" and see if it dies directly on my own computer but apparently im bad and must be punished :)01:04
VolvoDaviey: Do you have any interrest in servers working on Ubuntu or not ?01:05
DavieyVolvo: no, i'm not seeing the same behaviour as you01:05
DavieyVolvo: If you have discovered an issue, and want to help fix it - it needs a bug number.01:05
VolvoBut... are you really sure. Youcouldnt have been in this tiny SO_LINGERING01:05
DavieyVolvo:  http://pb.daviey.com/UYLB/raw/01:07
VolvoAnd its running now...01:08
VolvoThen perhaps its a query issue and then it dies like the microsoft isa servers used to do from my simple scanner in 1998.01:08

DavieyVolvo: Really can't take this much further without a bug #.01:09
VolvoVery good shauno.01:10
shauno(I do realise how useless 'me too' is, but in the context of "it's dead out of the box", there's mine "out of the box")01:10
VolvoSomething kills it. I need to pinpoint that sucker :)01:10
DavieyVolvo: let us know when you have a bug number.01:11
VolvoI guess an agressive scan against it needs to be constructed or nmblookup be run a few times and perhaps with invalid targets.01:12

twbSo guess what06:51
twbI have a motherboard that doesn't support PS/2.  USB keyboard works in the BIOS, and post-boot -- but it can't be used to hold shift/alt to interrupt grub06:52
* Datz is tempted to say chicken butt06:52
Datztwb: surprising06:52
DatzI have the opposite problem sometimes06:52
twbAlso: if you lvchange -pr /dev/mapper/vg0-my_favourite_snapshot0, and /etc/fstab says to fsck it -- guess what happens06:53
twbThat's right, mountall exit(4)'s, and the whole boot just halts -- no recovery shell, no reboot, nothing06:54
twb(Because e2fsck fails on read-only LVs.)06:54
twbe2fsck -p, that is.06:54
* Datz had not guessed yet, therefore was not right06:54
twbFlipping upstart06:55

Datzdid you just get a new mobo?06:55
twbDatz: it's a brand new machine06:55
eagles0513875hey guys06:55
twbDatz: but it's OK, I have these problems with Ubuntu on old machines, too.06:55
eagles0513875anyone using wordpress with squid as the proxy on the server? im debating if i should have each site im hosting setup with an individual caching plugin for wordpress or just setup squid in general on my server06:56
Datztwb: well, I'm  sure you'll find a work around. :)06:56
twbYeah, the workaroud is "hope the machine never reboots"06:57
Datztwb: that's not much of a workaround :p06:57
twbExactly06:57
twbThe other workaround is "install debian, which may be slow to change, but at least it's slow to change"06:57
* twb froths some more06:58
Datzyea06:58
Datzhumm06:58
twbI increase the grub timeout, and it *can* see the keyboard06:59
twbIt obviously just can't see the shift key down event in the zero seconds that's allocated by default06:59
Datzah07:02
=== jenkinbr is now known as rbniknej
Datzgreat07:02
twbWTF, the GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT code is handled in /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober -- which exists despite os-prober being purged07:02
twbAaaand it reads 30_os-prober.distrib even after I dpkg-divert it, because it isn't using run-parts(8) to iterate over the parts.07:05
twbdpkg-statoverride'ing it instead does the trick07:07

maddogi have a ubuntu server 10.10 with a 3ware raid and a crypto volume. Everytime i write data to that volume, the transmission hangs every ~350mb for 30 seconds or so. I already disabled all caching functions on the controller, so i have no idea why that happens..ah, and i have plenty of entropy available (between 2000 and 4000)12:27
lnx1010Hello all, If i have several sites under my /var/www/ directory such as /var/www/site1 and /var/www/site2 etc how can i create website addresses for those sites so they can be browsed externally such as http://site1.company.com and http://site2.company.com? at the moment i can only get to them by internal ip such as http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/site1 and http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/site213:31

UndiFineDmaddog, isn't it the bug where on high disk load the kernel hangs for a few seconds ?14:15

Doonzhas anyone cloned the boot drive and went from a 120gb drive to a larger drive?16:40
ikoniaDoonz: what's up ?16:52
Doonzwell im looking at replacing my main boot drive16:54
ikoniaso what's the issue/question16:54
ikoniaok16:54
Doonzive done cloning to windows boxes without issue but ive never do it with a linux disk before16:54
ikoniaok16:54
ikoniaso what approach are you looking to take ?16:55
Doonzcan i just take an image of the drive and then apply the image to the new drive?16:55
ikoniaor is that part of the question16:55
ikoniahow do you propose to take an image ?16:55
Doonzacronis16:55
ikoniafor me personally, I wouldn't do that, especially if your changing the disk size16:55
Doonzwell with acronis i have disk director wich allows for resizing of the partitions16:56
ikoniafor me personally, I wouldn't do it that way, however I don't use acronis so don't have that much awareness of it16:56
Doonzwell how would you go about doing it16:57
ikoniaI would put the new disk in, partition it, and then copy the file systems across, re-apply grub and then I'm done16:57
ikonia(modify files such as fstab etc)16:57
Doonzdo you know of a step by step guide i could follow?16:59
ikonianot directly, but it is as simple as partition the disk, mount the new disk, copy with recusion and permissions the file systems on to the new disk, modify /etc/fstab, then re-apply grub217:00

TheSovno didn't bump the serial numbers let me try that19:06
