vychune_afko/00:10
=== vychune_afk is now known as vychune
wrstchris4585:  yes i think f15 is great and that's a pretty much vanilla G3 install00:12
chris4585wrst, yeah, I liked it very much so, too bad fedora was able to offer this experience and ubuntu wasn't00:13
chris4585I think ubuntu went with the very wrong choice00:13
chris4585but who knows what unity will be like in a year or two from now00:14
wrstchris4585: i think for now, but by the time the next LTS comes out I think will really be the indicator00:14
chris4585yes!00:14
wrstreally 11.04 is just a test to see what needs to be done the LTS to me is the big deal if it sucks then "Houston we have a problem" or Isle of Man or whatever the case is00:15
chris4585I honestly think its pretty obvious what needs to be fixed, the whole way categories were displayed was very uncomfortable to see and work with00:16
chris4585gnome 3 really hit the spot with the way it did it00:16
chris4585if gnome 3 had a few more options (by default) like global menu or to have the sidebar always show that would be great00:17
chris4585its like both projects could have what it takes..00:17
wrstchris4585: i really don't like the global menu so much personally00:19
wrstits ok but I think that G3 with all the space they have the top of the bar have enough room for 10 menus and I think they should tweak that actually00:20
chris4585I actually like it, that and the window controls00:20
wrstI see the use of it i guess its more I'm not used to it really00:21
chris4585it doesn't really affect me either way, I got use to the left windows controls in a week or so00:23
chris4585I like them that way now00:24
chris4585I find it annoying using windows now though since the controls are on the right...00:24
wrstchris4585: that doesn't bother me at all I use my wifes mac xp at work ubuntu they are just window controls i either go to one side or the other00:28
chris4585well at first it bothered me00:28
vychuneo/00:39
vychunehey guys02:17
vychuneJUST STARTED MY OWN CHAN!!!!!!!!!!!!02:41
wrstgood morning everyone14:01
cyberangermorning wrst14:14
wrstmorning cyberanger how you doing?14:16
cyberangernot too bad14:16
cyberangerfurther optimizing squid14:16
wrstcool cyberanger i'm working on my laptop as I have a chance14:18
cyberangernice14:18
cyberangerI've found some Content Distrubition Networks (like Akamai, for example) make Caching pointless, unfortunately14:19
cyberangerwhich is a real pain, you get the same youtube video, same Windows Update, but they push it out as a unique URL each time, and it's either cached or it's not14:20
cyberangerbut if it is, it will never be used twice14:20
cyberangermaking it a real mess14:21
cyberangerwrst: what is it your doing to the laptop?14:22
wrstcyberanger: have ubuntu setup now getting arch setup then going to de bloat win 7 some14:22
cyberangerde bloat windows, hrm14:22
cyberangerDoes 'rm -Rf /windows' not work? ;-)14:23
cyberangerseems really sucessful here14:23
wrstwell you know get some out if possible and the battery works well did a install of arch all on battery because i forgot to plug in14:23
cyberangerlol, for Arch I beleive that14:24
cyberangerfor Ubuntu, no way14:24
cyberangerand winDOS, forget it14:24
wrstwell about 2 hours with arch you do a net install, well you should atleast14:25
cyberanger(I know some cannot go without windows, I had to eat the cake once too, then I learned why it tasted so bad for cake)14:25
cyberangernice, all 2 hours on battery?14:27
wrstyes but looks like i will be doing it again!14:29
wrstfor some reason arch won't login i have the user/pass right but it immediately logs out14:29
chris4585wrst, can you run grub prompt and at the end of the kernel line add exec=/bin/bash14:30
chris4585if you do so you should boot into root logged in14:31
chris4585worth a shot anyway14:31
cyberangerwrst: yeah, recovery mode it14:31
wrstwill give that a go thank you :)14:31
cyberangerif you can figure out the logout bit, might be less time (esp if you were to reinstall and have the same issue)14:32
cyberangerok, I think I've got this small CDN issue figured out14:33
chris4585man I shouldn't of drank that monster last night, it took forever to get to sleep14:33
cyberangerMonster vs Vodka, wonder what would win there14:33
chris4585well vodka makes me sleepy14:34
wrstno dice i will reinstall on AC power this time :)14:34
chris4585wrst, that sucks14:34
wrstchris4585: not too bad I'm at work just installing anyway as I have time won't delay much :)14:35
wrstI know I set up root, I have been stupid and not done that before :)14:35
chris4585lol14:35
cyberangerum, well perhaps this is my security mindset, but isn't setting root up dumb14:37
cyberangercompared to sudo14:37
chris4585well with arch you kind of have to14:37
wrstcyberanger: I eventually set up sudo but arch is designed to use root14:37
chris4585I believe..14:38
wrstchris4585: you are correct14:38
chris4585yeah I do the same14:38
wrstwell chris4585 you could install sudo and set it up before you reboot but I wouldn't dare14:38
chris4585yeah, well I gotta go, bbl14:38
cyberangerwrst: so was debian (they tweaked the installer that 6 uses)14:40
cyberangerbut once sudo is going fine, I tweak the shadow for root14:40
cyberangerand same effect14:40
cyberangerworked in arch and debian, pre-614:40
wrstcyberanger: yes I never use root after the install15:03
* wrst attempts it again15:11
wrstwoot I'm in!15:13
electricuswrst: woot indeed. that looks awesome15:18
wrstelectricus: I'm liking this having something that needs no additional proprietary drivers added :)15:20
electricusthat is awesome15:21
electricusi thiink i need to get that adn sell my other camera15:21
electricussomebody on amazon says the video is not clear.. what?15:24
electricusthis looks great even with low light15:28
electricushttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TG5OPRbqcY15:28
electricusthe guy does say it has horrible battery life though16:00
cyberangerwrst: good16:41
cyberangerand yey, electricus arrived just in time16:41
cyberanger;-)16:41
cyberangerwish the store_url program in squid was simplier to grasp16:41
cyberangerthen again, I've learned all the simple stuff, time to press on16:42
cyberangeranyone here dealt with squid in detail16:47
cyberangeraware of the storeurlrewrite properties?16:47
electricuscyberanger: i've never set up squid from scratch, but i've been using it in clearos for a few years and now untangle20:05
electricussquid is for caching mostly isn't it?20:06
electricusand dansguardian for content filtering20:06
wrstelectricus: you are the man if you can set up dansguardian :)20:07
electricusnot really.. the distro just does it for you :-)20:08
wrstoh ok :)20:08
wrstI've tried, I just used opendns to filter20:08
electricusif you wanted more control .. you could set up untangle if you got an extra box to run it on20:09
electricusit's my fav when it comes to firewall/proxy20:09
electricusthe lite (free) version does everything you need20:09
wrstis it debian based still electricus?20:10
electricuswhat i like about it above and beyone opendns is the virus/phishing/spyware/ad blocking and such20:10
electricuseys20:10
wrstI tried it out at one time20:10
electricusyes20:10
wrstok that would be within the spirit of ubuntu-us-tn then :D20:10
electricusyeah!20:13
electricusi think i'm just going to start hanging out in here rather than #cooklug20:13
electricusi'm sick of Igneous always being a 'you know what'20:13
wrstIgneous is ok :)20:14
electricusin ways he is.. i just need to cool off i guess20:15
electricuswhen he said that i seriously need to check into seeing a doctor because i'm paranoid.. that was it20:15
wrstwell we have lots of paranoid people here don't we cyberanger :)20:16
oriasthey're watching me again >_>20:55
cyberangerthere is dansguardian and then OSes with it, but it's not as hard as most think21:15
cyberangerthe issue is one can beat it still21:15
cyberangermaybe I'm thinking of squidguard on some of that (same idea though, a filter is easy to setup, easy to beat)21:17
cyberangerwrst: paranoid no, aware, yes21:18
wrstha ha ok that works cyberanger :)21:19
cyberangerwrst: not all conspiracies are just theroies, after all21:20
cyberanger;-)21:21
cyberanger(with how sophiscated the toy box is at some of the alphabet soup branches of the Gov't, can't say it's paranoia all the time anymore)21:22
cyberangerand for electricus, it is chiefly a HTTP Caching Proxy21:25
cyberangerbut with it's ACL's and plugins, and with HAVP as a parent proxy, it can really do a ton more21:26
cyberangerit can be used (as I am trying out now) as a transparent proxy, or others use it as a reverse proxy (setting it in front of web servers to reduce load and minimize the slashdot effect)21:27
cyberangerwrst: for work, it's kinda nice that a ton of our stuff is repeat downloads21:35
cyberangerjust gotta do this to fix a design flaw (in order to cache it, at least)21:36
cyberangerwrst: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/05/26/bypassing_skype_crypto/22:03
cyberangerXpistos: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/05/26/bypassing_skype_crypto/22:03
cyberangerboth of you might like that22:03
wrstcyberanger: funny i was looking at something on the arch wiki about that subject i haven't read the article yet heading home and will there after going to do some tech support22:12
cyberangerwrst: that research is pretty new, I heard rumors of it, and some theroies22:18
cyberangerbut no real proof in the mainstream till yesterday22:18
cyberangerwonder what arch's wiki said22:18
vychunehey guys22:21

cyberangervychune: usual culprits been checked, like proper seating of ram?22:47
vychuneram is seated22:47
vychuneeverything checke22:48
vychunelet me see if the ram is bad though22:48
electricuswell everyone have a great memorial day weekend!22:57
cyberangerelectricus: you too23:03
cyberangerbtw, squid by default is a caching http proxy23:03
cyberangerbut it highly flexable to other tasks23:04

cyberangervychune: did the ram check?23:43
cyberangerdid you hear any POST beeps23:43
