[01:56] <nUboon2Age> crashsysystems ^
[02:04] <philipballew> enjoying the ubuntu hour in sacramento!
[02:06] <nUboon2Age> tonight castro street in Mountain View is blocked off so you HAVE TO TAKE A DIFFERENT SSTREET if you are driving. you could park north of Central and walk if you are coming via Alma/
[02:08] <nUboon2Age> Central and if you're coming from El Camino take a side street
[02:09] <nUboon2Age> phillipballew how's UH:Sac going?
[02:09] <jtatum> egads
[02:09] <jtatum> that drive was terrible
[02:09] <pleia2> I know jyo was planning on coming and he's driving
[02:10] <philipballew> nUboon2Age, oh you know... well i'm here.
[02:11] <jtatum> central was awful
[02:23]  * MarkDude is packing to leave for CLS in morning
[02:24] <MarkDude> Just rented car, and am going to pick up
[02:26]  * philipballew thinks MarkDude is gonna have fun...
[02:45] <nUboon2Age> pleia2 jyo just made it. ;-)  He gave me a little penguin which I'll photo and upload and upload to FB
[02:50] <pleia2> aaah yay it's an he.net penguin!!
[02:50] <pleia2> I am jealous :)
[03:02] <nUboon2Age> i uploaded the pinguin photos to FB
[03:05] <nUboon2Age> james jtatum is laughing at me because i just barely heard of GoglePlus
[03:05] <pleia2> hehe
[03:05] <pleia2> it's the new shiny thing!
[03:07] <nUboon2Age> i guess i'll have to check it out
[03:08] <nUboon2Age> rdoes anyone know about how diaspora is going
[03:08] <pleia2> it's still invite only
[03:11] <nUboon2Age> pleia2 , jyo says he'll try to get you a pinguin too. ;-)
[03:12] <pleia2> is he working over there now?
[03:14] <nUboon2Age> he's working at Hurricane Electric
[03:14] <pleia2> woohoo, congrats jyo!
[03:32] <nUboon2Age> okay UH:Mountain View has left the building.  ;-)   Good night  y'all
[04:31] <jyo> pleia2: Yes, I will try to get you a penguin asap.
[05:03] <nUboon2Age> philipballew how was it?
[05:55] <philipballew> someone here might know this, if I want to set a static local ip for a server whats a good address to give it?
[06:00] <jtatum> it has to be in the range of the network
[06:00] <jtatum> what's your router (gateway addr) and subnet mask?
[06:01] <philipballew> i need to remember the command to see that. if something i think
[06:03] <philipballew> nvm ill just do ifconfig
[06:04] <philipballew> http://paste.ubuntu.com/649714/ jtatum
[06:05] <jtatum> ok. this shows your IP and subnet mask. see them?
[06:05] <jtatum> the gateway you can get by running route
[06:05] <rww> I'll put a dollar on it being 192.168.1.1 though ;)
[06:06] <philipballew> its gonna be a little higher. if i beleive. its a weird setup at the house im currently at
[06:07] <jtatum> usually a good bet rww :)
[06:07] <philipballew> i have 2 other routers with default 1.1
[06:07] <philipballew> then i put ddwrt and changed them all up
[06:08] <philipballew> http://paste.ubuntu.com/649715/
[06:08] <philipballew> route ^
[06:08] <jtatum> philipballew: that machine looks like it has no gateway addr - so no internet connection
[06:08] <jtatum> and
[06:09] <jtatum> is that even the … hmm
[06:09] <jtatum> i'm feeling confused :)
[06:09] <philipballew> i saw that tocrap!
[06:09] <philipballew> \thats from my laptop
[06:09] <jtatum> that says wlan0, but the output of ifconfig said eth0
[06:09] <philipballew> i had the wrong tab
[06:09] <jtatum> ah ok :)
[06:09] <philipballew> i had the tab with ssh running i forgot to go back to. haha
[06:09] <jtatum> thought maybe i gave some bad advice
[06:10] <philipballew> http://paste.ubuntu.com/649717/
[06:10] <philipballew> ^the real route
[06:11] <jtatum> that shows the gateway as "home" - so ping home would reveal the addr
[06:12] <jtatum> you need to pick a number that the router is unlikely to give out via dhcp. (assuming you don't just exclude it right now)
[06:12] <philipballew> philip@philipserver1:~$ ping home
[06:12] <philipballew> PING home.gateway.2wire.net (192.168.1.254) 56(84) bytes of data.
[06:12] <jtatum> so if it's indeed 192.168.1.1, i usually go for the high side, like 192.168.1.249ish
[06:12] <jtatum> ooh! look at that rww, you would have lost the buck
[06:13] <philipballew> haha and i was gonna use this guide to change it to static http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/change-ubuntu-server-from-dhcp-to-a-static-ip-address/
[06:15] <jtatum> well, you've gathered a lot of that info now. you have the gateway addr, the subnet mask
[06:16] <philipballew> what about the brodcast and network?
[06:16] <jtatum> i think i see the broadcast in your ifconfig :)
[06:16] <jtatum> and the network seems to be in route :) (line 2)
[06:17] <philipballew> ah, i know that... brain fart. haha. time to get some vi goin. its my editior of choice
[06:17] <jtatum> good deal :)
[06:19] <philipballew> thanks for the info jtatum
[06:19] <philipballew> !
[06:19] <jtatum> any time
[06:19] <jtatum> good on you for doin' some experimenting :)
[06:19] <philipballew> now i think im gonna see how odd of an address i can give it
[06:20] <philipballew> tinkering never hurts
[06:27] <jtatum> ya
[06:27] <jtatum> can always try to ping it first - although no ping reply is not a guarantee that the addr is free
[06:37] <philipballew> i might see if i can stop my router from assigning it
[20:27] <nhaines> pleia2: hey, is it hot enough for you over there?
[20:34] <philipballew> nhaines, perhaps san fran has made her not used to the rest of the country! haha :)
[20:35] <sn9> it has that effect
[20:35] <nhaines> It's going to be in the 90's this weekend.
[20:36] <philipballew> 90's in sac as well
[20:37] <philipballew> it was in the 70's here last week, people were pitting their uggs back on and i ran into people from the bay telling me they cant stand this heat as 73 was too hot
[21:03] <philipballew> whenever I install ubuntu it asks if i want to use lvm, what would a reason for using that be? is there a reason a home user needs it?
[21:05] <pleia2> nhaines: it's horrible :)
[21:06]  * pleia2 hides in hotel room
[21:07] <philipballew> pleia2, the hotter the better!
[21:07] <pleia2> crazy person!
[21:08]  * philipballew wishes he knew something besides 100 dagree summers
[21:08] <pleia2> it's down to 99 w/ heat index of 111
[21:08] <pleia2> from 104/120 :)
[21:08] <philipballew> hows the humidity?
[21:09] <pleia2> 44%
[21:09] <philipballew> that is pretty bad
[21:09] <pleia2> yes
[21:09] <philipballew> at least a dry heat like ca you dont have to feel like you just took a shower
[21:10]  * pleia2 nods
[21:10] <pleia2> ah, the northeast :)
[21:11] <philipballew> i go to n.e. every few summers to visit relatives. its a nice place. cool accents and people in the part of the country your in
[21:11] <pleia2> it's wicked hot here!
[21:13] <philipballew> http://zedomax.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/solar-cap.gif  here, this will solve your troubles!
[21:14] <pleia2> haha :P
[21:38] <nhaines> philipballew: typically, if you don't know why you would run LVM, you don't want to use it.
[21:38] <nhaines> But it's used for combining hard drives together to make one volume for various reasons.
[21:43] <pleia2> also nice if you need flexibility in partition sizes (growing and shrinking) and it's nice for VMs
[21:45] <philipballew> well i'm just re-installing xubuntu.
[21:45] <philipballew> pretty simple
[21:46] <philipballew> i'm gonna hook it up wirelessly and setting up ssh. never done that before. should be the same
[22:50] <kdub> go is a pretty cool language
