nhainesYay in 12 minutes I'm talking about how to switch from another OS to Ubuntu in #ubuntu-classroom.21:48
bkerensa:D21:54
philipballew is http://wireless.kernel.org/ down for anyone else?22:25
guaphilipballew: not loading here. kernel.org, linux.com and the linux foundation site have all been down for a while now after a big attack22:26
guasadly that includes a lot of stuff mirrored on kernel.org22:26
philipballewbut how can I patch my wifi card to inject packets into my router ...22:27
guaoops22:27
philipballew:(22:27
guaphilipballew: find another mirror :)22:27
guapeople around /r/linux on reddit were discussing places to find kernel.org stuff. iirc one person mentioned that arch linux maintains a kernel.org mirror22:28
philipballewah, im jusy trying to set this up  is http://wireless.kernel.org/ down for anyone else?22:29
philipballewno22:29
philipballewthis up22:29

philipballewbut i guess i could look for a mirrior22:29
philipballewarch linux is nice22:30
guai22:31
guai'm looking for some good mirrors now and it's not the easiest thing to find22:31
guai'd feel better about arch if there were more people working on it. it takes them a long time to implement kinda basic stuff.22:31
philipballewthat seems like how they like it somewhat22:32
guaphilipballew: http://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/klbxn/with_kernelorg_down_where_can_i_find_the_last_few/22:33
guawell package signing was/is the big thing. to play with in a vm sure, but i'm going to give it quite a few years before looking at it as a desktop or server distro22:34
philipballewim always told its the true choice of geeks22:34
guadunno about that22:35
philipballewi dont beleive them myself22:36
philipballewits debian based somewhat isnt it?22:36
guai don't think so. wikipedia has something on its origins22:43
guaiirc it's from scratch but inspired a lot by some other distro22:43
rwwArch has nothing to do with Debian.22:50
rwwThey're also claiming that package signing is coming sometime soon. We'll see.22:50
rwwWell, I won't. I'm fine with Debian <322:50
* bkerensa gets to go see master.kernel.org soon22:58
