[15:26] morning, all [15:28] morning ChinnoDog [16:03] 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. [16:38] ssweeny: Are the sides on that tower system just holding it together or are they passive backplanes as well? [16:48] ChinnoDog: one is a backplane [16:48] the other is structural [16:49] 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. [16:53] i don't see why you couldn't do it [16:53] just seems like there isn't much use for it at that size [16:53] plus does atx allow for the edge connector you would need? [16:54] No, but there are standard hole placements on the board that could be used to place supports. [16:55] The use is that you could create a "rack" that doesn't use rails or rack cases. [16:57] that doesn't seem wise [16:58] you need a place for power supplies, etc [17:02] I know. What a pain. If only ATX had an edge connector for power [17:03] we need a new motherboard standards [18:48] http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#VARCACHEAPPLICATIONCACHEDATA [18:48] Title: Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (at www.pathname.com) [18:49] That is very confusing. How can /var/cache both be deletable and be expected to survive reboots? [18:50] it should be deletable on a schedule determined on a per-application basis [18:51] so it's not totally volatile but you might want like a week's worth of logs in there [18:51] at the same time if those logs were lost you can go on living [18:56] If I could go on living without them then why can't I loose them between reboots? [18:58] s/loose/lose [18:58] (thought I should correct myself before pleia2 corrected me) [19:40] so there is a guy using linux like twenty feet away [19:40] talking about torrenting [19:40] :| when i walked in i interjected in the conversation [19:40] about ubuntu [19:41] who he appears to know little about ._. [19:41] sigh. [19:47] lol [19:48] should i go talk to this dude? [19:56] So, did you talk to him? [19:58] no [19:58] when i walked in i did [19:59] maybe when i walk out
