| ssweeny | morning ChinnoDog | 15:28 |
| ChinnoDog | I found a shortcoming in KVM last night. It seems to only provide int13 extensions for the first disk. That crippled by multi boot scenareo. | 16:03 |
| ChinnoDog | ssweeny: Are the sides on that tower system just holding it together or are they passive backplanes as well? | 16:38 |
| ssweeny | ChinnoDog: one is a backplane | 16:48 |
| ssweeny | the other is structural | 16:48 |
| ChinnoDog | Too bad you can't get those for ATX boards, even if they were both structural. I imagine ATX is too big and would break. | 16:49 |
| ssweeny | i don't see why you couldn't do it | 16:53 |
| ssweeny | just seems like there isn't much use for it at that size | 16:53 |
| ssweeny | plus does atx allow for the edge connector you would need? | 16:53 |
| ChinnoDog | No, but there are standard hole placements on the board that could be used to place supports. | 16:54 |
| ChinnoDog | The use is that you could create a "rack" that doesn't use rails or rack cases. | 16:55 |
| ssweeny | that doesn't seem wise | 16:57 |
| ssweeny | you need a place for power supplies, etc | 16:58 |
| ChinnoDog | I know. What a pain. If only ATX had an edge connector for power | 17:02 |
| ssweeny | we need a new motherboard standards | 17:03 |
| ChinnoDog | http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#VARCACHEAPPLICATIONCACHEDATA | 18:48 |
| PennBot | Title: Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (at www.pathname.com) | 18:48 |
| ChinnoDog | That is very confusing. How can /var/cache both be deletable and be expected to survive reboots? | 18:49 |
| ssweeny | it should be deletable on a schedule determined on a per-application basis | 18:50 |
| ssweeny | so it's not totally volatile but you might want like a week's worth of logs in there | 18:51 |
| ssweeny | at the same time if those logs were lost you can go on living | 18:51 |
| ChinnoDog | If I could go on living without them then why can't I loose them between reboots? | 18:56 |
| ChinnoDog | s/loose/lose | 18:58 |
| ChinnoDog | (thought I should correct myself before pleia2 corrected me) | 18:58 |
| MutantTurkey | so there is a guy using linux like twenty feet away | 19:40 |
| MutantTurkey | talking about torrenting | 19:40 |
| MutantTurkey | :| when i walked in i interjected in the conversation | 19:40 |
| MutantTurkey | about ubuntu | 19:40 |
| MutantTurkey | who he appears to know little about ._. | 19:41 |
| MutantTurkey | sigh. | 19:41 |
| EvilPhoenix | lol | 19:47 |
| MutantTurkey | should i go talk to this dude? | 19:48 |
| ChinnoDog | So, did you talk to him? | 19:56 |
| MutantTurkey | no | 19:58 |
| MutantTurkey | when i walked in i did | 19:58 |
| MutantTurkey | maybe when i walk out | 19:59 |
