[06:40] <chris4585> anyone know the name of the component that puts the controls of a maximized window in the panel in unity?
[06:40] <chris4585> thats a mouth full..
[06:59] <chris4585> ah nvm I figured it out
[07:00] <cyberanger> chris4585: for a router and that directory, I'm not sure of the benifits
[07:00] <cyberanger> sorry, whopps
[07:01] <cyberanger> chibihogoshino: for a router and that directory, I'm not sure of the benifits
[07:01]  * chris4585 scratches head
[07:01] <cyberanger> if that directory isn't used much
[07:01] <cyberanger> chris4585: reply to chibihogoshino's suggestion for #swissknife-router
[07:02] <cyberanger> sorry, my highlights are bad, tab complete and don't double check
[07:02] <chris4585> yes even still I can't make sense of that sentence lol
[07:02] <chris4585> ah
[07:03] <cyberanger> Speed up your Linux box by compressing /usr http://www.itech7.com/compression/Speed-up-your-Linux-box-by-compressing-usr
[07:03] <cyberanger> just a question of does /usr get enough use for that
[07:04] <cyberanger> that was his suggestion
[07:04] <cyberanger> chris4585: as for your unity question, glad you figured it out, as I'm openbox at best
[21:12] <chibihogoshino> wow.. its dead in here
[21:39]  * cyberanger chokes on the quiet
[22:09] <cyberanger> chibihogoshino: did you see my reply to you link
[22:09] <chibihogoshino> oh yeah..
[22:09] <chibihogoshino> i was going to reply but you werent on
[22:09] <chibihogoshino> i was thinking for about space and not speed
[22:10] <chibihogoshino> the /usr dir was just a example
[22:11] <cyberanger> It did lead to some thought, but I think /usr is small as is, and more resources thus slower, but it got me thinking, some areas don't need to outlast a boot on the smallest sysyems
[22:11] <cyberanger> prime example is /tmp
[22:12] <cyberanger> but I personally shred $HOME/.adobe/ and $HOME/.macromedia/ (flash cookies)
[22:12] <cyberanger> whearas I could just have that as a tmpfs too
[22:13] <chibihogoshino> yah
[22:13] <cyberanger> there probally is some downsides to that too, but it's worth a look too
[22:13] <chibihogoshino> what programs use adobie tho
[22:13] <cyberanger> ramdisk would be nice, but it'd take ram from processes
[22:14] <cyberanger> so I'd be tricky to figure out how to script it at boot, hw detection wise (maybe just a boot cheat code at first)
[22:15] <chibihogoshino> maybe if there is over 2 gig amount it can auto load a ram disk
[22:15] <cyberanger> adobe flash, if I did a desktop router combo build (not my primary plan, but)
[22:15] <chibihogoshino> how much space does that take up tho ?
[22:15] <cyberanger> well, thing is, if I run as a Live Disk, the whole system is a ram disc
[22:16] <cyberanger> but an install, none is
[22:16] <chibihogoshino> yeah
[22:16] <cyberanger> but I could see speeding bind9 and dhcp3-server via a ramdisk
[22:17] <cyberanger> just make sure that logging can survive reboots on installs
[22:17] <cyberanger> since windows users are used to the "Reboot First" advice, and the system can lockup (just as any other can)
[22:18] <chibihogoshino> a separate persistent partition on the image
[22:19] <chibihogoshino> gotta get ready to go to ohio..
[22:19] <chibihogoshino> peace out
[22:19] <cyberanger> well, technically, a persistant partition and then one generated at boot ( /proc is a tmpfs, just not to the point of a ramdisk)
[22:19] <cyberanger> chibihogoshino: safe driving, enjoy the mess
[22:19] <chibihogoshino> will do..
[22:19] <cyberanger> bring back some snow, and hockey
[22:20] <chibihogoshino> might be on a little later but i dunno..
[22:20] <cyberanger> you can leave the hockey fights though ;-)
[22:20] <chibihogoshino> lol
[22:20] <cyberanger> well, you'll want to leave early enough, there's a mess heading our way, parts of Ohio has been a mess for a month at least
[22:21] <chibihogoshino> yeah.. no big deal.. i grew up there so snow isnt that big of a deal
[22:21] <cyberanger> but the idiot in front and behind might not have
[22:21] <chibihogoshino> yeah, thats why you dont drive near them
[22:22] <cyberanger> thus why I'd still advise it (I grew up just across the line in PA myself)
[22:23] <chibihogoshino> yeah..
[22:23] <chibihogoshino> ttyl
[22:23] <chibihogoshino> marry x mas every one
[22:23] <cyberanger> see ya around chibihogoshino
[22:23] <cyberanger> you too
[22:26] <wrst> hey cyberanger
[22:26] <cyberanger> hey wrst
[22:27] <wrst> how are you doing?
[22:28] <cyberanger> good, had to fix a xen kernel issue (not sure of the cause, but details are clear enough that it'll be cleared up for a good little bit)
[22:29] <cyberanger> messed with the server this morning
[22:29] <cyberanger> intresting little challenge (annoying timing, but there isn't such a thing as ideal unplanned downtime)
[22:30] <cyberanger> about to do another bind9 install and do as much prep for a local mirror as I can here
[22:31] <cyberanger> I hope that in a week I'll be equipped for hosting a public mirror, but that's a bit unrealistic on the ISP front
[22:31] <cyberanger> but it'll be something for installfests and conventions and such
[22:32] <cyberanger> that's what I got going on, what about you?
[22:32] <wrst> that will require a pretty honking connection won't it?
[22:33] <wrst> nothing much on my end going to eat at the paarents house in a few
[22:33] <cyberanger> well, to keep the mirror in sync that's easy bit
[22:34] <cyberanger> to also serve as a public mirror though, yeah (which is why the ISP is my limit)
[22:34] <cyberanger> but if I was an EPB customer, man I'd be cooking, better than any mirror in the southeast
[22:35] <wrst> I did install natty... again and failed to work ... again but no kernel panic I will update in a day or two and see what happens
[22:35] <wrst> EPB?
[22:35] <cyberanger> Chattanooga's power Co.
[22:35] <cyberanger> Fiber to the home
[22:36] <cyberanger> 1GBPS is the highest plan I'm aware of
[22:36] <wrst> wow wow wow
[22:37] <cyberanger> yeah, but I'll never see that, my wallet is cobweb filled, not cash filled
[22:37] <cyberanger> and distance to it, nope
[22:38] <cyberanger> but for a installfest, or a confrence (or any other reason for a LAN based mirror) it's dead simple
[22:38] <wrst> that is smoking I cant imagine
[22:41] <cyberanger> I can, but that's kinda the nature of an imagination
[22:44] <cyberanger> I can also imagine my lan at 10Gbps, but I can't imagine my wallet allowing for the reality of both ideas ;-)
[22:45] <wrst> ha ha
[22:45] <wrst> yeah I would so have to redo my network
[22:46] <cyberanger> well, I "redo" mine all the time (small one guy network, easy as pi)
[22:47] <wrst> my wife might smack me for that
[22:48] <cyberanger> hehe
[22:50] <wrst> no she WOULD smack me
[22:52] <cyberanger> do it while she's asleep, then in the morning say suprise and whola
[22:56] <cyberanger> esp if it's an upgrade and not a redo ;-)
[23:07] <wrst> :)
[23:13] <wrst> all she cares is that her internet works and the printer prints
