ibeardsleeSo I had been trying to upgrade my PC to oneiric on the weekend21:13
ajmitcheverything exploded?21:14
chiltsibeardslee: you must have been busy if it kept you from realising the weekend finished a day ago :)21:14
ibeardsleesome packages were missing from citylink .. so I thought for shits and giggles to try "Select Best Server"21:15
ibeardsleemirror.aarnet.edu.au was the best21:15
ibeardsleeTelstraClear are still arse at peering21:16
ajmitchlet me guess, traffic goes to the US & then to australia?21:18
ibeardsleedidn't check that, but you'd think that they could get to an NZ host first21:18
ajmitchwith ipv6 being enabled now, I've noticed some screwy peering21:19
ajmitchsnap are using telstraclear for an upstream for that, from what I can see21:19
ajmitchI was trying to get to www.debian.org, which is hosted in canberra & I had mtr showing traffic going NZ->US->AU21:20
ibeardsleechilts: I managed to finish the upgrade last night .. once all the files were available21:23
ibeardsleealthough now the PC has some issues with getting the gui going21:23
ajmitchNZ mirrors seem to have more than their fair share of problems21:24
ibeardsleeohhh doing a beta install of oneiric23:01
ibeardsleethe install fires up the webcam and asks if you want to take a photo of yourself to use for the login picture23:02
chiltswonder what happens on a server install ... you get a picture of the rack opposite23:05
chilts:)23:05
chilts(assuming the server has a webcam of course, before anyone else points it out) :-p23:05
ajmitchwhy you'd do a server install with the desktop cd, I don't know :)23:05
ibeardsleebecause you want a gui like every good Windows server has of course23:06
chiltsneither do I :)23:06
ajmitchibeardslee: of course...23:07
ibeardsleenice .. looks like oneiric fixes the problem with the phantom monitor on this laptop23:19
