redtape|renegadeQUESTION: Would it be possible to have a disc version of Ubuntu that can fit on a 190MB disc, that can just download all the Ubuntu packages and trigger updates to be installed aswell ? i.e. So you can just give someone a Mini-CD or a business card sized disc and let them just 'net install' from there ? Weird question, but it's one of those " I'm feeling lucky " type-a queries .. :]07:27
diploMorning all07:29
diploredtape|renegade: Isn't that the net install CD ?07:30
redtape|renegadeis it ?07:30
* diplo getting url07:30
* redtape|renegade starts googling .. silly redtape ..07:30
diplohttp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/netboot/12.04/07:31
redtape|renegadehttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD  ?? right ?07:31
diploOr there is a 13.04 image as well07:31
diploYep07:32
redtape|renegade30MB .. mmm pretty good . wiki doesn't say much .. Do I have to 'select' Opt In/Out of packages .. or is it all done for you ?07:34
diploYou get a base install of enough to get the machine running and can select some to install I think, been a while since I used it07:36
diploBut I normally go for totally empty install and install what I need as I go07:37

redtape|renegadediplo: MMmm .. interesting. Just recalled I haven't tried installing Ubuntu on one of these yet for travelling/train  [ http://bit.ly/141p6xt ] as described here ... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/TEGRA/AC100#Misc_links07:42
diploBe worth getting a live cd to test functionality ?07:43
redtape|renegadediplo: You mean official one/ DVD , or .. 'is there any point' ? Plz be specific .. I care not, but I'm just saying I like the device, unless you can think of a lighter/smaller one ?07:46
diploI Sorry hadn't read the second link, just scanning through it now07:47
diploMaybe worth chatting in their channel #ac100 ?07:48
redtape|renegadeyour right, I will .. I was thinking of tinkering with another flavour next month anyway .. i.e. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu#ARM_(AC100)_Systems07:49
knightwiseLubuntu - Arm ? on what ?07:50
redtape|renegadeknightwise: that was 9 mins ago .. but we are perhaps vearing OT.. ?07:51

dwatkinsIs there some issue with providing wifi drivers for Macbooks on the live USB image? They don't seem to work when booted from the ISO.08:01
knightwisenot that I know , but I do use the wired connection when installing.08:02
knightwisethen it works fine.08:02
knightwisebecause they get teh wifi drivers from the repos08:02
dwatkinsyeah, I just wondered as I was hoping to have a persistent USB-based install08:03
dwatkinsI didn't have a cable to hand when I last tested booting via EFI.08:03

dwatkinsthanks popey - makes sense08:07
diploAnyone got any ideas, cut and pasting a perl script into a new file, hashes all the lines and moves them in a few tabs each time08:11
diploUsing vi08:11
dwatkinsdiplo: you mean auto-indenting? http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/How_to_stop_auto_indenting08:14
dwatkinsor more than just that?08:14
redtape|renegadeknightwise: Yes, I'm converted to that idea .. a 2008 Macb.- Air +  Ubuntu   sounds goods .. http://bit.ly/Zq5jvi08:14
diploauto indents each line and adds a hash to each line08:15
redtape|renegade.. almost too good ..08:15
diplojust reading that link08:15
diploheh none of the options work :/08:19
dwatkinsbah08:19
dwatkinsI assume if you paste into some other app, that the hashes don't appear08:19
diploI could go through it line by line but it happens on one site every time and I can't work out why :/08:19
dwatkinsi.e. that it's not some javascript thing changing what's being copied08:19
diploYep, just one site and happens to all files08:19
diploNot sure if it's specific to vi, see if nano or something is installed08:20
dwatkinsI discovered a plugin for Chrome which blocks the annoying double-paste things where it forces you to put the URL when pasting08:20
MooDoomorning all08:20
dwatkinsallo MooDoo08:21
diploOK, at least I've trimmed it down to a vi issues08:22
diploJust installed nano :(08:22
dwatkinsvi or vim? ;)08:22
dwatkinsalso, is it specific to that user account?08:22

Laneyhahaha08:38
mungbeananyone tried teh text trace service when expecting a package from amazon?08:43
LaneyI signed up for it but it has never text me yet08:43
Laneysome of the individual couriers do though08:43
mungbeanlolz08:43
mungbeanthis one is citylink08:44
mungbeanYou are signed-up for Text Trace to receive text messages between 7 AM and 8 PM when your delivery encounters a problem.08:45
mungbeanoh08:45
dwatkinsCitylink are liars08:45
mungbeannot what i expected08:45
mungbeani wanted "your parcel is being put onto a van"08:45
mungbean"is coming up the road"08:45
dwatkinsI've had plenty of texts from Amazon UK's delivery company DPD that were always pretty accurate.08:46
dwatkinsNot sure if you have to be signed up for Prime for that, though.08:46
Laneyyeah that's something else08:46
Laneyho hum08:47
Laneyusually when mine have a problem amazone don't know about it because yodel are liars08:47
mungbeandon't think i'll need my parcel if the rain keeps up anyway08:47
popeyis your parcel a sun lounger?08:47
mgdmI have no idea how or why Yodel are still in business - they changed names from HDNL because they had a hideous rep, but they've kept it up08:48
mungbeanit's an adult scooter08:48
mungbeanfor getting to work quicker/more funly08:48
Laneymgdm: i can only assume that amazon are locked into a contract08:48
Laneyor they are so cheap that it's worth taking the flak08:48
mgdmlast time I had something delivered from them we were out, they handed it to my next-door neighbour and didn't tell anyone - next door neighbours are students, though, so didn't bother to try to contact us as they're nocturnal08:48
mungbeani have a strange neighbour who has a poor paying job and v expensive car that he drives around at 1am08:49
Laneyi've had the classic "left in the bin" on bin day, which the neighbours then kindly put out for me08:49
mgdm:/08:49
Laneygot back in time for that one08:50
DJones\o/ Benefit of working in the motor industry, free MOT's :)08:50
mgdmDJones: nice. Now drive a car with no emissions and avoid VED, too :-)08:50
mgdm(fvvo 'no')08:50
DJonesmgdm: You mean something like this http://goo.gl/sVGBk08:52
mgdmheh08:52
DJonesI think my dad only pays £30/year for his car for a peugeot 300808:52
mgdmmine's a bit more than that :/08:53
DJonesI've got an old shape Picasso, 2 neighbours have got one with different engines, theirs are 1.6 Petrol engines, mine is a 2L diesel, they pay about £180/year, mine is £130, and people commonly say that diesel engines are dirtier than petrol08:54
mgdmI think they're 'better' in terms of CO2 output, which is what VED cares about, but worse in terms of particulates08:55
DJonesOne of the neighbours threatened to swap the engines overnight08:55
mgdmheh08:55
bigcalmGood morning peeps :)08:55
DJonesThankfully it was the teaching assistant, rather than the mechanic who owns the the other picasso08:55
bigcalmmgdm: heard of any hotel discounts for phpnw13? The website seems to be lacking such info this year08:56
directhexdwatkins, amazon use every single courier depending on the item. dpd isn't exclusively amazon's08:56
mgdmbigcalm: Not thus far08:56
bigcalmmgdm: maybe I should hold off booking a room then08:56
mgdmI've not looked at the site, yet - might be worth asking in #phpnw?08:57
dwatkinsdirecthex: ah ok, I seem to get them all the time, perhaps because of my location (Edinburgh)08:57
brobostigongood morning everyone,09:00
directhexdwatkins, wish i got dpd more.09:02
directhexdwatkins, we get APLE here. dreadful.09:02

JamesTaitGood morning all, happy Hamburger Day! :-)09:08
brobostigongood morning JamesTait09:08
JamesTaitbrobostigon, o/09:08
dwatkinsdirecthex: I stopped ordering from Firebox because they use Citylink.09:10
directhexCITYLINK :D09:10
dwatkinsCitylink write on the website that they attempt delivery in the morning, but don't turn up, it's just to keep the beancounters happy, but it's a lie.09:10
dwatkinsEven getting stuff delivered to my office, which is staffed all the time during the day, is hassle with Citylink.09:11
directhexgeneral case: i like DPD/interlink because 1-hour delivery slots. i like royal mail because the depot is walking distance. beyond that, i'm not keen on couriers09:11
bigcalmJamesTait: hamburger day?09:34
JamesTaitbigcalm, allegedly.09:34
bigcalmHumm09:34
bigcalmThink I'll pass09:34

mungbeanhayfever is still really bad though :(09:35
mungbeanafter-effects of yesterday09:35
bigcalmLasagna for dinner I think09:35
mungbeanhow many layers of lasagne is the acceptable amount?09:36
mungbeanongoing discussion with wifey ont his09:36
bigcalmUrk, dunno09:36
bigcalmIt'll be my future mother-in-law making it. I wouldn't argue with her about how many it should be ;)09:37
czajkowski409:37
bigcalmlower!09:37
mungbeanmy wife did 1 or 2 until i suggested a bit more09:37
czajkowskino lower makes it an odd number09:37
czajkowskino likey the odds :p09:38
czajkowski109:38
czajkowskilordie09:38
mungbeanshe basically put the mince /suace in and layer on top09:38
mungbeanlike an italian pie top09:38
czajkowskieh no that's not how it's done09:38
mungbeanno, now she puts more layers for me on my side09:38
mungbeanand does it her way on her side09:38
bigcalmWhile looking for the correct spelling of lasagne, this popped up http://www.cookingclassy.com/2012/10/caprese-lasagna-roll-ups/09:38
mungbeanjust like the pizza09:38
mungbeani have no onions and v little tomato base09:39
mungbeanin the more classic european style09:39
mungbeanso we end up having very different looking halves of pizza09:39
mungbeanwalkers deep ridged crisps 6 pack for a quid...mmmm09:40
bigcalmI ordered a tailor made suit yesterday. So I'm not allowed to eat until after the wedding now09:42
mungbeani would like to see how a tailored suit comes out on me09:43
mungbeanalthough off the peg in next is an excellent fit on me09:43
bigcalmI do fear I might have spent a little much on a 3 piece suit for the wedding. Just hope I get more use out of it than for just 1 day09:45
mungbeani hired one and got skanked royally09:45
mungbeanbig mistake09:46
mungbeananyone know of a fresh graduate looking for junior role?09:47

davmor2bigcalm: yeap chilled out watching gavin and stacey10:05
dwatkinsgreat show, that10:06
* TheOpenSourcerer went to see the new Star trek film last night. Was really good. Loads of action.10:06
mungbeansent my wife to see the imax versino10:07
mungbeanfound a £15 charge on my credit card10:07
bigcalmWe went to the 2D version. Much fun10:08
davmor2dwatkins: I can thoroughly recommend it for anyone who has seen it.10:08
dwatkins£15 doesn't surprise me for an IMAX showing.10:08
mgdmthe tickets for the IMAX 3D one I saw were a tenner each10:08
bigcalmNext film we go to see will be Despicable Me 210:09
davmor2bigcalm: I'm going to see if the lighthouse has it less loud than the cineworld means we enjoy the film over the migrane :)10:09
bigcalmdavmor2: take ear plugs :)10:10
mungbeansit at the back10:10
* TheOpenSourcerer can't wait for Despicable Me 2 too.10:11
davmor2mungbean: the problem with the cineworld is they have 10 screens in a building that should probably only have 6 and a sound system built for a building that size that has 3 screens.  It's about 50 decibels too loud.10:13

bigcalmmgdm: done any signing API commands?14:57
bigcalmmgdm: would I need anything more than this for creating a signature? md5(ClientID . Timestamp . fields... . ClientKey)15:00
mgdmI think that'll work, though you'll want to ensure the fields are sorted properly15:01
davmor2bigcalm: application name or is that covered by ClientID?15:01
davmor2bigcalm: ie you might have browser and an android/ios app15:02
bigcalmmgdm: it'll be sent as JSON and verified in the same order each time15:03
bigcalmdavmor2: It's a web to web only system. There's no scope for mobile devices or manual use of the API15:03
bigcalmmgdm: I'm writing the API and the client to use it. So complete control at this point :)15:04
mungbeanmy 10.04 desktop is on 418 days atm15:04
davmor2bigcalm: okay then just throwing it out there incase you hadn't thought of it :)15:04
bigcalmdavmor2: ta15:04
* bigcalm pokes php.net for not working. Yay for mirrors15:23
bigcalmhash('sha256', $wibble) might be better than md515:24
dogmatic69bigcalm: I doubt there is much point to the overhead for sha25615:34
bigcalmdogmatic69: what alternative then?15:34
dogmatic69it would be virtually impossible to build a rainbow table as you are hashing the timestamp, and if someone was able to figure out the various params they could use sha256 anyhow15:34
dogmatic69bigcalm: what exactly is it for?15:35
dogmatic69Just a token to validate the fields transferred?15:35
bigcalmYes15:35
bigcalmAnd the timestamp is to limit replay attacks15:35
mgdmoverhead is relative - I doubt it's going to be getting enough traffic that the difference between MD5 and SHA256 run times is going to be a significant factor15:37
dogmatic69bigcalm: add a salt and sha1 should be fine15:37
dogmatic69the timestamp is sort of salt, but a 30 / 40 char salt is prob better15:38
bigcalmI too didn't think that the overhead of sha256 was going to be an issue15:38
dogmatic69this is what cake does to stop form tampering which I guess is similar to what you want15:38
dogmatic69https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/blob/master/lib/Cake/View/Helper/FormHelper.php#L56115:38
bigcalmYay csr15:39
bigcalmI thought that they had hash() back to front until I realised that it was a static method15:40
dogmatic69ye, that is a cake method15:40
dogmatic69you can configure the default hash type so usually Security::hash(foobar) is good15:40
bigcalmMakes sense15:41
dogmatic69bigcalm: The I think sha > 1 is just going to add time to the request for no gain15:41
mgdmbut not a significant amount of time15:42
bigcalmThough even sha1 is considered better than md5?15:42
mgdmprobably less than the TCP overhead to his DB server15:42
bigcalmWe're talking about maybe 500 calls a day. I would be surprised if it were more15:43
bigcalmWe can always include the API version as part of the payload or the URL. Allowing us to switch to a different method if required in the future15:44
czajkowskiTheOpenSourcerer: where is AlanBell hiding15:46
bigcalmOh how I love @Cumberholmes on twitter "I'm starting to suspect that John knows his new 'hatstand' is actually me in disguise, but is refusing to acknowledge me."15:47

MartijnVdSdaftykins: but the Seidon.. factory pre-filled maintenance free water cooling18:06
daftykinsi7 3770K/16GB 2133MHz DDR3/nvidia GTX 680/samsung 256GB 840 pro SSD/2TB storage HDD18:06
MartijnVdSI considered buying ib now, but the socket change18:06
daftykinsmaintenance free? seems a bold claim18:07
MartijnVdSdaftykins: they guarantee it for a few years at least18:07
daftykinsyeah it is a bit of a dealbreaker for longevity18:07
MartijnVdS"Two year zero maintenance guarantee"18:07
MartijnVdSn ot a lot, but enough for me18:07
daftykinsi always wanted to give water a go, mainly due to boredom18:08
daftykinsbut the trouble is, you're kinda only moving the fans in some ways18:08
MartijnVdShttp://www.coolermaster.com/product/Detail/cooling/cpu-liquid-cooler/seidon-120m.html18:08
MartijnVdSdaftykins: I also got a "Silencio" case from CoolerMaster, which has kind-of okay-but-not-great airflow18:08
MartijnVdSso moving the fan closer to the exhaust port is good18:08
daftykins=]18:09
daftykinsi'm putting my friends setup into an Antec P18318:12

daftykinsooooooooooooooh it's a snake18:14
MartijnVdSdaftykins: that case looks nice, heavy-duty :) :)18:14
directhexi can't believe i spent ~£200 on keyboard/mouse for wife's birthday :|18:15
daftykinsMartijnVdS: yeah heavy, but nicely thick skinned to reduce noise \o/18:15
daftykinsaaand his graphics card will be 25cm long18:16
MartijnVdSdaftykins: Same with the Silencio, it comes with thick padding on the inside18:16
daftykinsso it fits :O18:16
daftykinsneat :)18:16
MartijnVdSI'm not going to bother with a separate GPU18:16
daftykinsindeed gone are the days of putting in windows18:16
daftykinsrather not be able to hear it :D18:16
MartijnVdSbut the blinky fans!18:16
MartijnVdS*shudder*18:16
daftykins:D18:17
shaunoI never understood windows.  That's where I breed dust bunnies.  watching seems rather indecent18:18
daftykinsi can only say that sometimes it's handy for diagnosing something18:18
daftykinsbut the rarity of that makes it pointless :D18:18
MartijnVdSdaftykins: they have motherboards with numeric diagnostic LEDs now18:19
MartijnVdSand "Boot to BIOS" pins18:19
MartijnVdSand lots of other weird features you'll use once18:19
shaunoreminds me of hours trying to track down "dma timeout" kernel errors, and eventually discovered my sb16 had fallen out18:20

MartijnVdSI remember one summer my XT started acting up18:20
daftykinsgetting that chunky GTX 680 4GB card for my mates' setup18:20
shaunoand my amazement when pushing it back in resulted in music, rather than a panic18:20
MartijnVdSWeird hangs, weird savegame corruptions (yay lots of $$, etc.)18:21
MartijnVdSthe DMA controller had hone18:21
MartijnVdSgone18:21
daftykinsshauno: pushing it in whilst on? :)18:21
shaunowell of course18:21
daftykinsah yes i was going to hook up a second input cable so i can use my screen(s) to setup this friends new PC18:22
daftykinsalthough i suppose i could use my spare 19" samsung LCD instead18:22
daftykinsbut then stuff will look fancy on my screens too18:22
daftykinsdo i have another DVI, hmmz18:24
daftykinsor i could try displayport for the first time ever! zomg18:24
daftykinsif my cable wasn't still at my parents in my big spares box ¬_¬18:25
daftykinsDVI it is18:36
dllewellynafaict display port is just dvi with a different connector - like hdmi is dvi + audio19:21
popeykinda19:22
popeyDP is HDMI without paying the license fee19:22
dllewellynergh @ wrong nick19:22
=== dllewellyn is now known as diddledan
daftykinsi just wanted to try it out for the first time ;)19:23
daftykinsmy twin 24" Dell LCDs have had it since i got them but no cards existed for years19:23
daftykinskristenbb: hey, how's it going?19:23
kristenbbhi19:24
kristenbbI'm fine, but my problem is still not solved19:24
diddledanit's annoying - both dp and dvi can carry analogue signals. so being enterprising I think with my dp system that I can plug in a dp-to-dvi and then a dvi-to-vga daisy-chained. it seems nobody makes a displayport to dvi also carrying the analogue signel19:24
diddledaneww @ speeling19:24
diddledansignel???19:24
diddledansignal**!19:24
daftykinswell, HDMI and DVI use the same spec, displayport to DVI requires active conversion afaik19:25
diddledanI really should get my mac onto ebay19:26
diddledanmeans wiping it though, and finding the box out, and getting it shipped.. bah19:26
daftykinswhich one is it you're selling?19:27
diddledanone of the ancient black macbooks19:28
diddledanc2d t7700?19:28
diddledanerm 6 GB RAMs19:28
diddledanand 250GB HDD19:28
diddledanit's unfortunately too old to cope with mountain lion, so I'm expecting the return on investment to be slightly lower than had I sold it a year ago19:29
daftykinsaww19:30
diddledanit's exactly one generation (a few months) too old19:30
daftykinswhat're you hoping to get for it?19:30
diddledancouple ton19:31
diddledanat most I guess19:31
diddledanit's been a while since I looked at second hand prices19:31
daftykins^_^19:31
daftykinshrmm19:35
daftykinsif you transfer via SFTP, is that ok for doing binary data transfer?19:35
daftykinsi know FTP clients tend to give you ASCII/binary options19:35
daftykinsbut i don't know if WinSCP from a windows box -> a Linux host would be bad19:35
diddledangood question19:36
daftykinsdiddledan: that one can still take Lion then? just not ML19:36
diddledanyup19:37
daftykinsi'm so tempted19:38
daftykins:D19:38
popeyi use winscp between windows and linux a fair amount, works great19:38
popey"just works"19:38
daftykinspopey: yeah, it's just that i'm helping someone setup a COD4 dedicated server and the readme says that fot FTP clients (which i know is different to SFTP) you must use binary mode19:38
shaunoscp/sftp don't have an ascii mode.  that 7bit rot is way legacy19:39
popeygotcha19:39
daftykinsah good good :) it'll work happily then19:39
popeyyeah, should do19:40
daftykinsthanks guys19:40
daftykinshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIdFLEKnuhY19:43
daftykinsthat's where i was yesterday if you're interested19:43
daftykinsthe island of Sark, near mine - day tripping with hire bikes19:43
daftykinsthat's the crazy cliff fall on the strip of land that connects Big Sark to Little Sark :>19:43
shaunoI was in bratislava yesterday :)  but no bikes19:45
shaunobut we did have deep-fried sheep cheese.  I think I'd have preferred bikes19:47
daftykinsdiddledan: what screen size one is it? sorry for all the questions :D if you could find its' comma model # e.g. "6,2" i'd be curious to look it up :>19:47
shaunoI think the blackbook were only 13"19:47
daftykinsah cool :>19:48
shaunobut they were usually the equivalent of the top-end white macbook for each given generation.  they didn't do black on the lower tiers19:48
daftykinsyeah19:49
popeyhttp://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook/specs/macbook-core-2-duo-2.4-black-13-early-2008-penryn-specs.html19:49
popeyone of them?19:49
daftykinsseems so!19:51
diddledandaftykins: it's 13inch, and model MacBook4,119:54
daftykinsebay seems to have them for a bit more than you expected19:54
daftykinsi'm seeing ones still with 2GB RAM for £350+19:54
diddledanyes, popey that's the one19:55
diddledan\o/19:55
diddledanmine's got 6GB :-p19:55
daftykinsindeedy19:55
shaunoyou'll mostly find 2 & 4GB, apple claimed they'd only take 4.  the reality was they couldn't take 8, and apple would only spec them with matched pairs19:55
daftykinshowever if you feel like forgetting the above and selling to me for £150 *whistle* ;)19:55
diddledanlol19:56
daftykinsis the battery gone with age though?19:56
diddledanebay has lots of bits of them but the first page doesn't actually have many complete units19:57
daftykinsi searched for "macbook black 2008"19:57
diddledanthe battery I replaced a while ago with a third-party - same with the psu19:57
diddledannew apple branded batteries are about 100£ in themselves19:58
daftykinshttp://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Apple-MacBook-A1181-BLACK-13-3-2-4GHz-320GB-2GB-OSX-Lion-A391-/261221842786?pt=UK_Computing_Apple_Laptops_ET&hash=item3cd208ff6219:58
daftykinsthere's an example19:58
diddledanso I didn't have that kind of money available when I replaced it19:58
daftykinsthat would be an ace little system if you ditched the HDD for an SSD19:59
shaunowow.  I should try to put my 2007 back together ;)19:59
diddledanshauno: knowing you it's beyond "putting back together"19:59
daftykinsXD19:59
shaunotis but a flesh wound :/20:00
daftykins:D20:00
daftykinsalright food time20:00
daftykinsleft it a bit late again :S computers and IRC are bad, mmkay20:00
diddledanlol20:01
diddledanI do that at work20:01
diddledanoften I'm eating lunch after 320:01
diddledan>.<20:01
daftykinssame with me20:01
diddledanso how long till I can use ubuntu-touch on my galaxynexus for reals? :-p20:05
diddledanby "use" I mean it must have a terminal emulator and ssh20:05
diddledanok, this is odd - two links [1] shows a hand holding the box of a samsung galaxy s4, and [2] shows that the sgs4 is the size of the box in horizonal and vertical planes. How fscking huge is that thing?! [1] http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Samsung-Galaxy-S4-4G-Brand-New-In-Box-Sealed-/221232402062 [2] http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Samsung-Galaxy-S-4-GTI9505-16-GB-Black-Mist-Unlocked-Brand-NewWith-Invoice-/17104721904820:08
diddledanthose dimensions would put the sgs4 at bigger than the galaxy note?!20:09
diddledanI think the hand in [1] was photoshopped20:13
shaunodiddledan: does this help?  http://cl.ly/image/0T2I1O461s1220:18
diddledaninteresting20:19
diddledandon't you love that you can get laptops with 500GB of RAM? </troll> http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Acer-V3-571G-15-6-Core-i3-2-4GHz-6GB-RAM-500GB-HDD-Windows-8-Laptop-/360646687445?_trksid=p2055223.m221520:19
shaunohawt20:20
shaunoI wonder though, isn't ssd techincally RAM ?20:21
diddledano_O20:22
diddledannot really, no20:22
diddledanSSD is permanent storage. RAM is transient20:22
shaunonah, nvram is permenant, dram is transient20:22
diddledanpermanent in terms of "until the disc says no"20:22
diddledaneven nvram is transient - it disappears as soon as power is removed20:24
shaunoyou're positive about that one ?20:24
diddledanyou're probably thinking something along the lines of eeprom20:25
shaunono I'm thinking like flash, which is nvram20:26
mgdmFlash was developed from EEPROM20:29
mgdm(but is still NVRAM, so you're both right)20:30
shaunoI just think it's curious that the RAM moniker does fit SSD.  it is memory, and it is random-access, in that you can pick an address and pull it, rather than having to seek to it20:31
shaunoit's obviously not what we mean when we say ram, but I don't think it's going to be long before we're teaching kids what these terms mean, by explaining what they used to mean20:32
daftykinsit's NVRAM for a reason - 'non volatile'20:35
shaunoyeah.  I think he's thinking of sram vs dram, where you can hold sram with a battery, but dram needs the controller to keep pinging it20:36
shaunoanyway, pointless, because I highly doubt that laptop has a 500GB ssd at <£400.  just struck me the terms don't work so well anymore20:38
daftykins:D20:38
daftykinsterms?20:38
daftykinsi had a Uni prof. that refused to call it 'RAM' he'd call it random access store20:39
daftykinsi liked that approach20:39
shaunofour crates of junk and not a single ps/2-usb adaptor.  not sure if I need a new keyboard, or moar boxes of junk20:57
daftykinshahaha20:58
daftykinsPS/2 is so much better than USB =/20:58
daftykinsi think because it's lower level20:58
shaunountil you come across a machine that doesn't have ps/2 ports.  which is where I'm stuck right now21:00
daftykins:(21:00
popeyhuzzah! new toy has shipped21:01
popeyhttp://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00BQ5KHJW/21:01
daftykins:O interesting21:02
dwatkins_I have one of these, it's great: http://www.amazon.co.uk/New-Trent-IMP120D-Thunderbolt-Blackberry/dp/B004CHMP50/21:03
diddledanholy crap they're cheap right now21:03
dwatkins_charges whilst it's in use, too - I'm going to see if I can run my Raspberry Pi off it.21:03
daftykinswould i install libstdc++6 to get libstdc++.so.6 ?21:04
daftykinsoh it's already on21:05
popeywonder how long the Pi would run for..21:06
shaunoif my math works, 18.5 hours if you've got no load on the usb21:09
daftykinscan anyone help me install libstdc++6 for a 32-bit arch?21:12
daftykinsat least i think that's what's going wrong with a program i'm trying to run21:13
shaunoI haven't actually looked at multiarch yet, but I'd assume you're using a pre-built binary that's hardwired to /usr/lib instead of looking in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ ?21:14
daftykins": error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"21:14
daftykinsi guess so, 64-bit arch server with the above error21:15
shauno'ldd filename' should show you with a path21:16
daftykinswhere filename is?21:16
daftykinsthe .so.6 ?21:16
shaunothe binary you're trying to run21:16
shaunoit'll show what it's linked against21:17
daftykinslibstdc++.so.6 => not found and libgcc_s.so.1 => not found21:17
daftykinsthat was handy :)21:17
shaunobah21:17
daftykinsi copied those out, the rest it found21:18
daftykinsmostly in /lib32/21:18
popeypeople run arch on servers?21:18
daftykins?21:18
daftykinsi'm helping this guy try to run a dedicated game server21:18
popeyoh, i thought you meant "arch linux" but you meant "64-bit architecture"21:18
daftykinsyes sir-ee21:19
* diddledan won't mention the 40 smth gentoo systems at work21:19
daftykinsif it helps, a centOS guide refers to:21:20
daftykinsyum -y install  glibc.i686 libgcc.i686 libstdc++.i686 zlib.i686 screen.x86_6421:20
diddledanin debland it's glibc:i38621:21
diddledanor similar21:22
diddledanergh, I should be going to bed21:22
shaunohm, more humble goodness for my steam21:24
diddledanwas that the humble sale or the humble bungle?21:26
shaunobundle .. not sure if it's news or not, I've been away21:27
popeyit only launched today21:27
diddledanso.. kvm.. is it possible to run hyper-v inside kvm?21:33
diddledanvmware supportes nested hypervisors, but I donno how they go about that - it might be a fudge by only allowing vmware inside vmware21:35
daftykinsi solved it, i was being incredibly thick21:36
diddledanno comment :-p21:36
daftykinsthe program i had downloaded, a Call of Duty 4 dedicated server file set, had the libs i wanted in the folder21:36
daftykinsso i symlink'd them to /usr/lib/21:36
diddledanoops21:36
daftykinsthen they were visible and now the program works21:36
daftykins\o/21:36
shaunothe vmware one isn't a fudge; they'll virtualize the vt-x instructions, so it's available to the guest.  I know vbox doesn't do this (and claims it's not possible).  for kvm, I don't know21:38
bigcalmnotch paid $5,000 for HIB8. Do you think he just puts it on company expenses?21:39
diddledanlol21:39
diddledanprolly21:39
diddledanmy idea was to run kvm windows 8 which in-turn ran the vms downloadable from modern.ie (yes, there are linux downloads listed, but only for vbox which I refuse to use becasue 1) it's oracle and 2) it's oracle - I'm already annoyed ubuntu hasn't switched to mariadb yet :-p)21:42
daftykinsXD21:44
shaunoI can't check at the moment because my openstack install is messy beyond belief :/  but google is looking optimistic21:45
shaunostill debating whether to wipe that one and start again, or look at other approaches, but that's for another day21:47
diddledanok, lets try it out. reboobing (and hopefully coming back online again)21:49
shaunotonight's task is to find out why this procmail rule isn't matching, because I've been getting fresh teens every 10 minutes all weekend :/21:53
daftykinsshauno: fresh teens 0o22:05
sebsebsebhi22:10
shaunoargh, it's still not working.  it'd help if spamd didn't split headers across multiple lines22:10
popeyhi sebsebseb22:23
sebsebsebpopey: see my pm :)22:25
ocean22hi guys. i use ubuntu 13.04 64 bit. my internet was working flowless since the install. Just now my mozilla and google chrome both stopped connecting to internet and giving me the following error message."Your router does not have an active Internet connection.22:26
ocean22If your router has previously been working then click here to retry. If this does not work then please contact your Internet Service Provider.22:26
ocean22If you have just installed your router then you may need to set it up. Click here to access the router's web configuration pages. You will need to enter you admin password then start the Wizard setup when prompted". no clue how to fix this. windows is working fine. can some one help22:26
ocean22pease22:26
diddledanwell that worked - couldn't even get linux to boot22:29

diddledanit's got a weird thing gigabyte call "hybridefi"22:32
daftykinsah yep22:32
diddledanit's evil22:32
daftykinsi read about that sucker, in fact was it you with the system that wouldn't boot a flash drive?22:32
diddledanquite possible22:32
daftykinssorta, 2 nights ago maybe22:33
diddledanI'm having just that issue right now22:33
daftykinsi might've been going on about updating BIOS22:33

daftykins:)22:58
daftykinsthere's that22:58
daftykinsdiddledan: when might you be on to try it again?22:58
daftykinsi'd be curious how you get on22:58
diddledanI'm usually about most evenings.22:59
daftykinscool, might be about too then22:59
