Dan9er111 | hi first time here | 15:03 |
---|---|---|
Dan9er111 | arch linux user | 15:03 |
cmaloney | WElcome! | 15:10 |
Dan9er111 | i must admit though ive just moved to arch and the crashes are a problem | 15:15 |
Dan9er111 | my comp is def powerful but i think the nvidea drivers are crashing me | 15:15 |
cmaloney | arch tends to be more leading (bleeding) edge than most distros | 15:16 |
jrwren | this is why ubuntu ;] | 15:17 |
Dan9er111 | yea i really want to make a linux distro my os for a server im starting what distro would you recommend | 15:19 |
cmaloney | Well, we're sort of biased here. :) | 15:28 |
cmaloney | But I've found Ubuntu server to be pretty nice overall | 15:28 |
cmaloney | the package manager is quite nice | 15:29 |
cmaloney | that said the packages tend to lag over time | 15:29 |
cmaloney | so after a certain point you only get securty updates | 15:29 |
cmaloney | and not the latest-and-greatest | 15:29 |
Dan9er111 | oh i see is this more of a ubuntu promary channel | 15:51 |
Dan9er111 | i should have figured | 15:51 |
Dan9er111 | i just wish their was a linux irc for michigan | 15:51 |
rick_h_ | this is close :) | 15:51 |
cmaloney | Yeah, this is pretty close | 15:54 |
cmaloney | WE also have a channel for the Michigan UNIX Uer Group but most folks in that channel are here | 15:54 |
cmaloney | (http://mug.org if you're interested) | 15:55 |
cmaloney | But I like to think we're more pragmatic than dogmatic about OSes | 15:55 |
cmaloney | My boss uses (and loves) Arch Linux. | 15:56 |
cmaloney | I prefer Ubuntu because I like more stability | 15:56 |
cmaloney | If you want to rock Macintosh we'll still love you | 15:57 |
jrwren | yeah, we don't trash talk other linux. our good friend greg-g uses debian in production despite all the good evidence that ubuntu-server would be better ;] | 16:18 |
rick_h_ | jcastro: glad you like the 5x. I'm liking the motox pure | 16:18 |
rick_h_ | jcastro: I missed my moto little touches and it's a nice inbetween the 5x size and the N6 size | 16:18 |
rick_h_ | hah | 16:18 |
* rick_h_ ran arch until he got hired by canonical | 16:19 | |
rick_h_ | been there done that :) | 16:19 |
cmaloney | Well, because you liked tiled window managers and Ubuntu didn't make that particularly easy to accomplish | 16:19 |
rick_h_ | I liked arch, it worked well for me :) | 16:19 |
cmaloney | Yeah, no worries | 16:19 |
rick_h_ | I just didn't update it every day and made sure to keep an eye out for 'tricky' things :) | 16:19 |
rick_h_ | that reminds me I need to get my tiling setp working on here again. | 16:20 |
cmaloney | yeah, JOhn doesn't do that, and every now and again it reaches out and collects the good karma | 16:20 |
Dan9er111 | cmaloney i feel the same way i really like arch linux but the stability issues hinder its ability to be used for wsomething serious imho | 17:28 |
cmaloney | Yeah | 17:29 |
Dan9er111 | ill stick around and try to be usefull | 17:31 |
cmaloney | PLease feel free to hang around | 17:31 |
rick_h_ | hah, not a lot of useful here. Much more social :) | 17:31 |
cmaloney | yeah, we're more of the social club. :) | 17:31 |
Dan9er111 | i can socialize | 17:31 |
Dan9er111 | whats the deal with airplane food | 17:32 |
cmaloney | It's neither for airplanes or food? | 17:35 |
Dan9er111 | *laugh track | 17:41 |
jrwren | anyone know current best file system for directories with thousands of files? I didn't know that this is still a limitation. btrfs seems very slow, but even ext4 is slow. Maybe xfs? | 18:16 |
jrwren | Did the lessons of reiserfs ever make it into other filesystems? | 18:16 |
jrwren | might have helped swift: https://github.com/otoolep/rqlite :} | 19:12 |
gamerchick02 | cool? | 19:18 |
