[04:14] How do I virtualise a Ubuntu desktop on my server to run as a HTPC [04:14] I am stuck at the virt-install [04:15] Sorry I am a newbie in Linux [04:16] I had entered sudo virt-install --prompt [04:17] Is it possible to just install Ubuntu Desktop on the real hardware, and avoid the virtualization? That will be easier for a newcomer. Virtualizing an HTPC sounds... interesting, you'll be dealing with virtualized sound cards and so forth... do you *really* want to do that? [04:18] I am trying to setup a NAS and HTPC on the same computer. Is it possible to just use the Ubuntu desktop [04:18] Sure. Ubuntu desktop can run services to share files and stream audio and video... [04:18] Ok. The NAS is able to run RAID? [04:19] Ubuntu server is an OS for "real server" use, often headless in a server closet. Sure, Ubuntu desktop can use hardware and software RAID. [04:19] Ok. That sounds like what I need for a starting noob. [04:20] How do I configure it to run as a NAS? [04:21] Just install the samba packages and set up shares, if you want "Windows-like" file shares. For video and audio streaming there are plenty of options but I don't know mcuh about any of them :) [04:22] fongwee: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Samba/SambaServerGuide might be worth reading.

[13:22] web development box primarily used for Drupal (6) [13:22] cossovich: php5 package is 5.3.2, is it too new? [13:22] gobbe, and even then i just started hostapd as soon as i did wlan0 (not wlan0:avahi) took 10.1.2.201 , and added a new route for the interface which broke the connection to the net [13:23] yar... Drupal 6 isn't compatible with 5.3 [13:23] cossovich: ok :/ [13:23] cossovich: then i would say that only way is to compile it from sources [13:24] I've seen some other solutions like changing the sources list to Karmic for the PHP packages but it just seems messy to me. [13:24] cossovich: yes, and that can cause lots of troubles :D [13:24] I think I'll go back to basics! Juts wanted to do a sanity check. [13:25] gobbe: what kind of potential troubles? (just out of curiosity) [13:27] cossovich: well, packages are depending from other packages [13:27] cossovich: so you could end up in situation where your system is needing two versions of packages :) [13:30] gobbe, I see... so if I go back to compiling PHP I just need to be aware of any updates myself and manually compile the software again when there's a new version? === cferthorney is now known as cferthorney|afk [13:36] i just losed the connection for a few minutes [13:36] cossovich: i would try to upgrade drupal one that supports newer php [13:36] cossovich: but you could skip php-packages from updates [13:39] hummmm === tumbleweed_ is now known as niles [13:41] <\sh> orogor: what does drupal6 upstream says about php 5.3?

I think I'm going mad here... [16:18] I have a home server [16:18] I wan't it to auto suspend and wake on lan [16:18] no magic packet just activity [16:19] I'm going to use powernap for the suspend part [16:19] When I do ethtool -s eth0 wol u [16:20] followed by: ethtool eth0 it says"Wake-on: u" [16:21] then i issue pm-suspend [16:21] I think that's not possible without magic packet, the network interfaces have activity continuosly so it wouldn't know which activity should make the server to wake on... [16:21] My system suspends but doesn't wake from ping [16:21] The wakeonlan tool sends the magic packet [16:21] I don't think ping is enough [16:21] the system does wake from wakeonlan Magic Packet [16:22] "ethtool -s eth0 wol u" should set wol to wake on unicast... [16:22] ... it wakes on unicast... with a magic packet [16:23] not a regular ping [16:23] This is not the problem. [16:23] After a suspend the "u" wol setting is reset to "g" [16:24] in fact you can't ping a suspended machine because it "doesn't have" IP [16:24] my arp table still contains the system. [16:24] Search ping and wol. This is widly used [16:25] Even so this used to work on my 10.4 install [16:25] No hardware changes fresh maverick install and it doesn;t work [16:26] Even setting it to "p" (physical activity) doesn't work because its reset to "g" before suspend [16:27] maybe there is a configuration file overwritting your command [16:27] I'm thinking something like this. [16:27] Might be that something is resetting it in the rc scripts on suspend [16:28] I think it's got something to do with bug 445950 [16:28] Launchpad bug 445950 in powernap "powernap init script should enable WoL on valid interface(s)" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/445950 [16:28] lol [16:28] That looks like a smoking gun. :) [16:29] I thought so.

[18:00] binaryhat: so on the server you should have bridged eth0 to br0 [18:01] thesheff17, eth0 and br0 have the same ip address, virbr0 has 192.168.122.1 [18:02] binaryhat: ah ok...so 192.168.122.1 is basically the virtual network for the backend...you can simply assign a static ip to your virtual machine in the same range as 192.168.1.x [18:03] binaryhat: it depends if you want to use NAT or not. [18:03] what do u suggest [18:04] I don't use nat...I assign everything in the same range so 192.168.1.x and static IP everywhere. [18:10] thesheff17, nat doesnt work, i get a 169 address [18:12] binaryhat: I would try to set a static on the virtual machine in the same range as the server and then try ping the server ip from the virtual machine.

I've got the machine running on a non-pae kernel and obviously, all is well. [19:00] ubuntu server uses the pae kernel for 32bit [19:00] if you uninstall it, you will uninstall the ubuntu server meta package cause it depends on it, but everything will still work fine [19:01] it's upgrades that can get strange then [19:01] so I should just ignore it? [19:01] why is it forcing PAE? that seems unnecessary. [19:01] it doesn't hurt anything on my server but the kernel is larger than it needs to be in consequence. [19:01] well, you installed server mode [19:01] you could just install the none-pae kernel also [19:02] the non-PAE kernels are installed, but tue PAE ones get priority in the grub kernel list. [19:02] heh, odd [19:02] I guess I could change it to boot off kernel 2 instead of kernel 0. that would always be the non-PAE non-debug kernel. [19:02] yes.

[19:52] kirkland: ping? [20:05] does anyone know how to set a read only variable in mysql to not read only? [20:06] thesheff17: what do you mean? [20:06] I'm trying to set this: set global lower_case_table_names=1; [20:07] and I get ERROR 1238 (HY000): Variable 'lower_case_table_names' is a read only variable [20:08] thesheff17: are you using logs? or something else? [20:09] r3sno: I'm trying to do this on the mysql command prompt...it basically just says table names are case insensitive [20:10] thesheff17: try this out http://info.solomonson.com/content/how-fix-errno-24-mysql [20:13] I just finished installing Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS on a system with a RAID1 configuration, it didn't boot. I loaded in rescue mode, and mounted the root drive, but I can't see any kernels in /boot/, any ideas why this might be?! [20:13] r3sno: yea I was originally trying to set this in the my.cnf..but the mysql server wouldn't start...so I commented out and tried it on the command line. [20:13] I did not specify a different partition for /boot [20:13] just a plain system with / fs [20:15] r3sno: and it doesn't start when I have SET lower_case_table_names=1 in the /etc/my.cnf file :-/ [20:16] ok weird, within rescue shell, an apt-get dist-upgrade seems to want to bring a kernel, so maybe this will resolve itself [20:17] I just don't understand why an install will seem to finish properly, with no warnings or errors, and the system ends up not having a kernel... [20:22] other then googling the answer, i dont know anything else thesheff17 [20:25] r3sno: thanks for the help...yea this variable has given me huge headaches since I converted over from oracle...I really need to get the developers to fix the case sensitive tables in the code...they are just not willing to do it :-/ and I want to upgrade to the newest version mysql 5.5.8...mysql 5.0.x this variable can easily be set. [20:31] hello. I've got a amd k325 processor (on a dell m101z) and I'm running 10.04. I'd like to downclock the CPU, how can I do it? [20:33] hello? [20:35] r3sno: that variable is set fine on mysql 5.1.41 it must be in the new version that they changed it :-/ [20:35] heh, new versions are always nice [20:36] r3sno: do you know anywhere to know how many CPU mysql supports? [20:36] i didnt know mysql didnt support as many cpus you could through at it [20:37] depends on how you use mysql :) [20:37] Patrickdk: please expand :D [20:37] thesheff17, i still cant get bridge to work [20:37] I think it's limited to one cpu per connection [20:38] and that includes replication (replication is single cpu limited) [20:38] Patrickdk: ah ok...I just got a new server... 24 cores...and I'm not really sure if mysql 5.1.x will support that number of cores....I was reading somewhere about how 5.5.8 would support that...I'm trying to find that. [20:39] binaryhat: so you set the static ip on the windows box? can you ping your virtual machine server? [20:39] na it supports it now [20:39] it's the replication that doesn't support it [20:39] dunno if that is what your talking about though [20:39] hmm [20:40] Patrickdk: ah ok so mysql 5.1.x should support that many number of cores? [20:40] yep [20:41] when in doubt about high mysql loads, read mysqlperformanceblog.com :) [20:41] they do crazy load tests, on large systems like that [20:41] Patrickdk: cool thanks. I prefer using the mysql version in the repo anyway. [20:42] heh? [20:42] * Patrickdk wonders what he said that says I told you to use something different [20:42] * Patrickdk hates people assuming what I say [20:43] Patrickdk: how did you learn to be a server admin? [20:45] Patrickdk: oh you didn't...I was just reading about mysql 5.5 and how it has 370% performance boost over 5.1.x [20:45] Patrickdk: so I was trying to use that version. [20:48] thesheff17, yes i can ping it [20:49] binaryhat: can you ping your router...usually 192.168.1.1 [20:49] hmm [20:49] binaryhat: once that works try ping www.google.com...if that doesn't work your DNS servers aren't set. [20:50] i cant ping the router [20:51]
