[13:58] <balloons> good day to everyone
[17:22] <dkessel> heya
[17:22] <svij> o/ dkessel
[17:23] <dkessel> hey svij
[17:24] <svij> dkessel: are you coming to ubucon.de ?
[17:29] <dkessel> svij: i don't think so. i might come to openrheinruhr again though. how about you?
[17:30] <svij> too bad… I wanted to find a guy who does a Ubuntu QA Workshop/talk ;)
[17:30] <svij> oh ubucon is must (oh wonder, I'm head of the orga team :D) and I'll also be at openrheinruhr and froscon
[17:31] <dkessel> heh. okay, we might meet at ORR then, if I come.
[17:32] <svij> great :)
[17:33] <svij> am I the only one who has no idea what those servers are? → "I have two G5s, a G4 and a 4U G1 I can donate if someone wants to pay for
[17:33] <svij> shipping or hosting."
[17:37] <dkessel> svij: regarding the ec2 instance: http://aws.amazon.com/de/ec2/pricing/#reserved-instances says about 29.20 USD/ per month when paying for one year? you wrote something about 40 usd
[17:38] <dkessel> svij: i think those are HP server model names.
[17:38] <dkessel> G4 and G5 doesn't say much about the specs though: https://www.servershop24.de/server/hp/dl-serie/dl380/g5/
[17:38] <svij> dkessel: you are right, I only looked at the "on demand instances" not the reserved ones
[17:40] <svij> oh well, so the model name doesn't say much about the actual hardware
[17:42] <dkessel> yeah, it's more a "generation 4" or "generation 5" thing, I think
[18:13]  * dkessel is no longer open to hosting the server, if it is about something as loud as a g4 or g5 :p . this would be in our private flat, after all.
[18:15] <flocculant> :)
[18:16]  * svij has a basement
[18:17] <svij> but I think an ec2 instance is a bit better
[18:18] <flocculant> can we not try this for free first?
[18:19] <svij> I want to try that tomorrow, if shrini doesn't do it until then
[18:20] <svij> should be only a few cents for testing…
[18:20] <svij> only t2.micro (1 vcpu/1GB ram) is free for 750h it seems
[18:20] <flocculant> svij: does that matter if all we need to do is prove it
[18:21] <svij> hmm
[18:21] <svij> might work with only one gb of ram…
[18:28] <balloons> howdy all
[18:28] <flocculant> hi balloons
[18:28] <svij> hi balloons
[18:31] <balloons> what a day ..
[18:31] <balloons> how is everyone?
[18:31] <flocculant> all good here thanks
[18:32] <svij> same  here :)
[19:07] <svij> balloons: flocculant: dkessel: it seems to work when I specifically disable kvm
[19:07] <balloons> svij, what do you mean by that?
[19:07] <svij> I can run the tests on ec2
[19:08] <svij> atleast it's boots the iso inside an ec2 instance
[19:09] <balloons> svij, interesting
[19:09] <balloons> presumably it would work on do then also?
[19:10] <balloons> will ubiquity go crazy or will it run, heh
[19:10] <svij> it should yes.
[19:10] <svij> the test script had an explicit call of "--enable-kvm" which I removed
[19:10] <dkessel> svij: so do you get actual test results? it should get to the "known broken" point with the unexpected coordinates....
[19:11] <balloons> ahh that's true. it won't attempt a full install anyway at the moment, so that would be useful to understand
[19:11] <svij> I've started the tests… waiting now
[19:17] <svij> hm.
[19:18] <flocculant> you want us all to hum along?
[19:18] <flocculant> :p
[19:18] <svij> /var/log/syslog: Aug  4 19:14:15 ubuntu gnome-session[1738]: E: Command failed after 3 tries: sudo apt-get install -yq bzr ssh python3-autopilot libautopilot-gtk python3-xlib recordmydesktop
[19:18] <svij> /var/log/syslog: Aug  4 19:14:16 ubuntu gnome-session[1738]: E: Aborting!
[19:18]  * svij scratches his head.
[19:19] <svij> oh "Failed to fork" above thos lines…
[19:20] <svij> I guess, it 512mb ram is too low for the vm inside the ec2 instance
[19:22] <flocculant> worth trying if it was free :)
[19:22] <svij> sure!
[19:23] <dkessel> you could try with swap, if you are allowed to do that :)
[19:23] <dkessel> lol
[19:25] <svij> heh… well after that it would possibly stop because theres not enough space left ;)
[19:25] <dkessel> :D
[19:25] <svij> it only has 8GB
[19:28] <dkessel> mh. you might be right then.
[19:29] <svij> but if the iso boots in the cloud, the tests should theoretically run…
[19:29] <svij> I hope :D
[19:29] <svij> I'll try a bigger vm tomorrow.
[19:33]  * svij goes to bed…
[19:46] <dkessel> night svij. i'll do the same
[20:11] <balloons> thanks for trying!
