[01:37] <cyberanger> wrst: me too, five guys was worth it
[01:41] <wrst> haha cool
[01:55]  * cyberanger wonders if that came out right, if not, sed s/five\ guys/five\ guys\ burger\ \&\ fries/g
[05:06] <binarymutant> whoa & weird http://perllinux.sourceforge.net/
[14:29] <wrst> netsplits! yeah!
[15:27] <wrst> binarymutant: i think i have found some happy middle ground for a while
[16:07] <binarymutant> wrst: what kind of middle ground?
[16:13] <wrst> doing the ubuntu net install lots of control but still have some of the ubuntu goodness
[16:14] <binarymutant> thats good
[17:02] <wrst> yeah a very nice setup i am finding
[17:02] <wrst> i just fear arch is going to blow up at me and laugh over the next few months
[17:05] <binarymutant> lol
[17:07] <binarymutant> if it was going to blow up it would have been during the /lib move
[17:11] <wrst> probably so but it was working so well it was boring
[17:11] <wrst> so it was either this or gentoo
[17:11] <binarymutant> idk about gentoo
[17:11] <binarymutant> although I do use aur to compile a lot..
[17:11] <wrst> yeah i mean i'm all for banging my head agianst the wall for a while but not for days :)
[17:12] <wrst> i may try gentoo in a vm sometime
[17:13] <binarymutant> it might be cool
[17:21] <wrst> yeah thats how i started with arch
[17:21] <wrst> guess i could leave a vm compiling for days :)
[18:44] <netritious> upgrading my venerated dual PIII 1.0GHz w/2GB DDR from hardy server to lucid.
[18:44]  * netritious crosses his fingers
[18:49] <netritious> and TGIF everybody :) forgot to say herro
[18:55] <wrst> hey hey netritious
[18:55] <netritious> how's it going wrst?
[18:56] <wrst> good netritious, you?
[18:57] <netritious> watching the screen flash at me Selecting, Unpacking, Preparing
[18:57] <netritious> waiting on prompts
[19:03] <wrst> netritious: i went and did a minmal ubuntu install i'm pretty fond of it
[19:04] <netritious> wrst: this is an upgrade on a machine that wouldn't take lucid when it came out, so not holding my breath
[19:05] <wrst> hmm that should be interesting
[19:05] <Unit193> Mini+openbox! :D
[19:05] <wrst> Unit193: i went big mini+ gnome  shell but no unity
[19:05] <Unit193> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1779564 ?
[19:11] <netritious> hey Unit193
[19:12] <Unit193> Doing my part, trolling and such... :P
[19:12] <Unit193> Herro.
[19:12] <netritious> wrst: this machine will be retired soon...maybe this year or next.
[19:12] <wrst> Unit193:  as long as we do our part
[19:14] <wrst> PIII netritious, that should have 15 more years left in it :)
[19:16] <wrst> Unit193: that's interesting was that a loco starting that effort?
[19:18] <Unit193> Yeah, mine.  Didn't end up really going anywhere as they got a tad busy.
[19:25] <wrst> well that does happen
[19:26] <netritious> wrst: *Dual PIII* so another 25-30 maybe XD
[19:28] <wrst> you bet, maybe 40!
[19:29] <netritious> haha maybe. I've seen some pretty ancient things running long after they shouldn't be anymore.
[19:32] <Unit193> I have a 120MHz, 70+Ram!!
[19:33] <netritious> here we go...
[19:33] <netritious> booting up
[19:34] <Unit193>              total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
[19:34] <Unit193> -/+ buffers/cache:        553      15400
[19:36] <netritious> upgrade looks good \o/
[19:36] <netritious> no funky errors on boot
[20:16] <wrst> awesome netritious
[20:16] <wrst> 50 years now!
[20:18] <wrst> and netritious to answer your facebook status go for it :)
[20:19] <netritious> nah, just half tempted wrst lol
[20:19] <wrst> ha ha
[20:19] <wrst> i wouldn't press my luck today, maybe tomorrow
[20:19] <wrst> :)
[20:20] <netritious> I was thinking of waiting a couple of years >.>
[20:22] <wrst> ha ha well you could do that i guess
[20:22] <wrst> i have had much success with 12.04 on my little server
[20:23] <netritious> it's not the OS I'm as worried about as the hardware.
[20:23] <netritious> when 10.04 came out I tried and tried to get it on this exact machine with no success.
[20:24] <netritious> even trying to upgrade like I just did wouldn't work.
[20:24] <netritious> *as much as the hardware
[20:25] <wrst> hmm weird
[20:25] <wrst> is 8.04 out of support this coming april?
[20:25] <netritious> not really...the mobo is somewhat proprietary
[20:26] <netritious> yep
[20:26] <netritious> the mobo is from an old supermicro 1U server with SCSI U160.
[20:27] <netritious> i have to boot to IDE to get access to the SATA drives plugged into a PCI slot adapter card.
[20:28] <netritious> *adapter card in a PCI slot
[20:44] <chris4585> o.O
[20:47] <wrst> oh me netritious i would not have known what to do and built a fire with that :)
[21:00] <netritious> yeah chris4585 it's ancient
[21:01] <netritious> about anything worth upgrading has been upgraded though
[21:02] <netritious> PCI USB2.0, PCI 10/100/1000 NIC, 2x PCI SATA II x4 port (8 ports total)
[21:03] <chris4585> I have an ancient computer that had win95 on it... I think a whopping 166mhz cpu with 24mbs of ram
[21:04] <chris4585> surprisingly I can get dsl linux somewhat work with it, but its more of a novelty
[21:04] <netritious> I have a TRS80 in the shed XD
[21:07] <chris4585> I think that is before my time lol
[21:08] <netritious> that's cool you can get linux to run on that chris4585, even if it isn't practical.
[21:09] <chris4585> lol yeah, it was actually a challenge because I had to use a disk to install which was somewhat annoying because some distros could do a way better job but couldn't handle that little of ram from a livecd
[21:10] <netritious> lol
[21:11] <netritious> i installed debian on an old adpatec snap server (network attached storage device) just to see if I could get linux on it lol
[21:12] <chris4585> fun, I like trying to push the limits on older hardware
[21:12] <chris4585> or doing frankenstein things
[21:12] <netritious> this was fun b/c the thing was uber proprietary. I was surprised I could get anything on it at all that wasn't specifically built to run on it.
[21:15] <chris4585> yeah
[21:16] <netritious> my real introduction to 'libre' unix and then linux was from a guy that I gave an old HP desktop that had a P200, 64MB, 4GB hdd to for running his forum using FreeBSD...
[21:16] <netritious> wanna say back in 2001.
[21:17] <netritious> which was an upgrade from his P120, 24MB, 1GB hdd system
[21:18] <chris4585> I wish I got into computers when I was younger, I didn't really have much experience until I was like 13
[21:19] <netritious> nothign wrong with that. 13 is a good age to get into something besides all the stuff you shouldn't be getting into at age 13. :P
[21:20] <netritious> *nothing
[21:38] <netritious> lol lspci says: VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage XL AGP 2X (rev 27)
[22:01] <chris4585> netritious, you may be interested in this http://www.bedrocklinux.org/
[22:32] <netritious> pretty neat there chris4585
[22:33] <chris4585> yeah
