[04:58] if not, just do normal [04:58] No its not [04:58] otherwise do minimal [04:59] i don't always want to install a lot of extra stuff on a server [04:59] then do minimal, and install what you need later [04:59] Am I being unreasonable in wanting some documentation to explain the available options, and what the differences are? [04:59] !minimal [04:59] The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD).

[09:25] My macs can see each other but my ubuntu machine can't see my macs [09:25] and mac can't see ubuntu machine [09:25] have you installed packages to your ubuntu for this purpose? [09:25] yes [09:26] I have avahi-daemon installed [09:26] it needs also mdns [09:26] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToZeroconf if you didn't follow this guide [09:26] anyway, if your ping command doesn't say ip it wont resolve [09:26] http://www.kremalicious.com/2008/06/ubuntu-as-mac-file-server-and-time-machine-volume/ [09:27] followed that guide [09:27] I can connect to the ubuntu computer from my mac using the ip [09:28] but the .local isn't reslolving [09:28] sounds like mdns is not working [09:29] have you done firewall changes? [09:29] mdns needs ports to be opened [09:30] I've enabled 5353 [09:30] is it possible that bind is conflicting [09:30] udp or tcp? [09:31] both [09:31] can you see inbound traffic to your ubuntu?

[10:15] so you want to see what are biggest memory eaters? [10:16] Could it be something with the router that my server is on [10:16] Doing with why its not seeing any of the other macs [10:17] chrislabeard: are macs conencted to router? [10:17] yes i want to see who is te boogie man :D [10:17] gobbe: yes [10:17] chilicuil: well, it could be. what is the answer if you try to ping some mac from ubuntu? [10:18] gobbe: When i do avahi-browse -art this is all i get http://pastebin.com/XVGrkScN [10:18] BrixSat: top can show that if you sort processes by memory usage [10:18] any other "better" than top? [10:18] more explenatory [10:19] gobbe: All my other computers are connected via WIFI and my server is using WIred [10:19] hmmh, what's wrong with top? how it is not explenatory? [10:19] chrislabeard: it could be the router of course, but you could see if your ubuntu gets any traffic to ports 5353 [10:19] gobbe: i would like to see memory in mbs and cpu [10:20] top is kind of confussing [10:20] for example i would have to sum all the apache threads to get the real apache memory === NG_ is now known as ng_ [10:21] BrixSat: pmap could do that [10:22] if they are triggered by one mother process [10:23] humm pmap is nice when you know wich process is the problem and you want to "debug" it [10:24] in my case my server has 1.5 gb mem and is now with 1.6 used (already in burst memory wich is 4 gb) [10:24] and normaly it would consume about 0.8 gb mem [10:24] well, you start with top to see top memory eaters and then you could dig in with pmap [10:25] i was looking for something "easier" :p [10:25] there are few gui tools but they are not server-related so... [10:26] ok ill have to do it the hard way :) [10:29] gobbe: It only shows something when I ping the ubuntu machine on the ubuntu machine [10:29] i'm sure that there are tools, but i'm sorry that i don't know better way :) [10:29] chrislabeard: what is that something [10:29] gobbe: no prob about that: [10:29] k well when I ping it ...

[10:33] ping: unknown host chrislabeard.local [10:33] chrislabeard: you could try to disable firewall for test [10:33] and see does this happen [10:34] gobbe: still getting unknown host [10:34] What is blocking it from communicating argg [10:35] it might be that mdns is not working perfectly, i'm not expert on mdns [10:36] would it matter if on I'm on a PPC [10:38] Can I just manually add my server to show up in the finder? === kiall|AFK is now known as kiall === kiall is now known as kiall|AFK === kiall|AFK is now known as kiall === kiall is now known as kiall|AFK === ng_ is now known as NG_ [11:06] hello everyone, can anyone help me with my fan control?

[12:28] yeah try just typing that at the command line and tell me if its what you were after [12:29] yes this is [12:30] so whast next move..? [12:30] where are you seeing a 24 hour time that you'd prefer to see a 12 hour one? [12:30] when i run date [12:30] ah [12:31] maybe you could just set up an alias [12:32] what you mean, how to do it.>?

[13:52] which version? [13:52] version of which package ? [13:52] ubuntu [13:52] 10.10 [13:52] and you are trying to install nova-compute? [13:53] yes [13:53] Any hints ?

[13:59] let me see [14:00] http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/554714/ [14:02] it seems that you have messed up quite heavily, i think that ppa doen't provide all packages that it should be [14:02] because for example libparted1.8-10 [14:02] that's not standard packet in ubuntu 10.10 [14:02] Hmm.. i see [14:02] the point is .. i just want to install them non-interactively, Can i workaround that ? [14:03] well. you cannot install them until you fix the problem of missing packages [14:03] why the nova-compute from repos isn't enough? [14:04] gobbe: they are pretty old [14:04] don't even work with the current docs [14:04] you should report this issue to maintainer of the ppa [14:04] I tried mentioning that at the OpenStack channel, but looks like there is not one active at the moment [14:05] when i used aptitude [14:05] I kept answering the questions with n [14:05] till it got them installed just fine [14:05] answering n to what questions?
