[02:52] <hads> ibeardslee: Sorry, went out then got busy. The disk was a replacement disk for a failed on in late 2009 so it was only 18 months old.
[02:53] <ibeardslee> interesting that the replacement failed
[02:53] <hads> It didn't show up any errors in SMART or anything just was bung and slow.
[02:54] <hads> Put load right up from IO wait
[02:54] <ibeardslee> the port it was plugged into was/is ok?
[02:54] <hads> Yeah, replacement in the same spot is fine.
[02:54] <ibeardslee> was the previous replacement in the same spot as the original?
[02:54] <hads> Yeah
[02:55] <hads> So two disks failed in the same spot, each lasted 18 months
[02:55] <ibeardslee> be interesting to see if that new disk goes bad before others
[02:55] <ajmitch> heat or vibrations?
[02:55] <hads> The first one died properly though
[02:55] <hads> Running at 29 degrees
[02:56] <ajmitch> far better than my poor laptop drives :)
[02:56] <hads> 1 degree hotter than the other drive which is the one that's lasted 3 years
[02:56]  * ibeardslee installed collectd on his workstation
[02:56] <ajmitch> 29C is quite cool for a drive
[02:56] <hads> It's a 1U supermicro I believe
[02:57] <ajmitch> though this desktop has drives at 27C, so about the same
[02:57] <ibeardslee> workstation drives are 31-36 degrees
[02:57] <ojwb> my drives are 360 degrees!
[02:58] <ajmitch> hottest I've seen the drive in my laptop was 61C before it was pausing too often & causing problems :)
[02:58] <ibeardslee> ouch
[02:58] <ajmitch> yeah, it runs hot
[02:58] <hads> /dev/sda: OCZ-VERTEX:  no sensor
[02:58] <ajmitch> drive is currently at 51C & that's with the laptop on a cheap cooling stand
[02:59] <hads> Warm
[02:59] <hads> My old laptop used to shut itself down at 90 degrees :)
[02:59] <ajmitch> 90C CPU temperature?
[02:59] <hads> I think so, I recall the logs in syslog
[03:00] <ajmitch> CPU is running cooler than the hard drive at the moment
[03:00] <ajmitch> but that's more due to where things are laid out in the case
[04:57] <ibeardslee> gah .. sigh .. arrggghhh
[04:57] <ajmitch> why isn't it time to go home already?
[04:57] <ibeardslee> too much 'fun' trying to get new hardware workig with ubuntu
[04:58] <ajmitch> I don't tend to have the luxury of new hardware very often
[04:59] <ibeardslee> new HP laptop for a staff member
[04:59] <ajmitch> what's not working?
[04:59] <ibeardslee> the graphics seem to crash
[05:00] <ibeardslee> with maverick
[05:00] <ibeardslee> natty had a phantom monitor
[05:02] <ajmitch> laptop graphics seem to be getting more complicated with vendors having dual graphics chipsets that get switched in software
[05:02] <snail> this is linux, all you need is shell!
[05:03] <hads> I removed overlay scrollbars today. Discovered you can't change fonts in gimp with the mouse as you can't grab the handle.
[20:53] <ajmitch> morning
[21:06] <snail> morning
[21:07] <ibeardslee> morning
[21:17]  * ajmitch wishes it were 5pm already
[21:21] <ibeardslee> ajmitch: it probably is somewhere
[21:26] <snail> has sourceforge rebranded?
[21:40] <ajmitch> I think they did it a little while ago, but noone noticed
[21:48] <mwhudson> morning
[21:48] <mwhudson> snail: several times!
[23:33] <thumper> morning
