02:50.58 | spldart | haven some super mega maya maya fun on norang rabbit |
02:53.04 | spldart | Hope nobody mines.. I got a question about a nic card in my number four bzflag client machine... the stupid NIC chip DM9009AF lspci says Davidcom or something like that... Always grabs the same ip ineveitably causing a collision with another machine... It's stuck on 192.168.0.6 no matter what no matter windows or linux |
02:53.08 | spldart | Any thoughts? |
02:53.51 | spldart | This is the second machine I've installed this nic in too... always 192.168.0.6 |
02:55.11 | spldart | ooOOoo... back says model ue1205D |
02:57.06 | blast007 | running the DHCP client on that machine? |
02:58.17 | spldart | don't think so... like I said.. multi mobo's multi os's it's always 192.168.0.6... unless there is a switch in the nic chipset |
02:58.29 | spldart | stupid nic |
02:59.38 | blast007 | well, I mean, you should be running the DHCP client...assuming you want to use DHCP on your network |
03:00.41 | spldart | I thought my router was handling assiging addresses per request...... Unless I misunderstand |
03:01.27 | blast007 | DHCP client, not the server |
03:01.27 | blast007 | the client is the one that requests an IP from your router |
03:01.27 | spldart | I know I've told it certain mac addy's only get a specific IP with only specific rules |
03:01.42 | spldart | Doesn't each boxen... windows or linux take care of it's personal client duties? |
03:02.36 | blast007 | well, you have to tell them to use DHCP |
03:02.52 | blast007 | you might have it set up as a static IP address |
03:03.20 | *** join/#bzflag A_Heart_Attack (n=A_Heart_@unaffiliated/aheartattack/x-000001) |
03:03.29 | spldart | I did try to assign a machie with this card and windows as a static ip other than the one it's stuck on.... The card then fails to communicate hehe |
03:04.22 | spldart | The same way I've assigned other boxes with windows to a specific IP... Heck... I can tell the router... See that mac... give it this addy... That just kills this mic too |
03:04.32 | spldart | But works on all the other rigs... |
03:05.09 | a_meteorite | I do that too |
03:05.10 | spldart | My only solution is to manually assign every other machine in this house to an ip other than .0.6 but if I do that then this little nic has won the war :mad: |
03:05.16 | a_meteorite | it's called "static DHCP" - how ironic |
03:05.49 | a_meteorite | never had any problems with it except that one time my integrated nic went kapooey |
03:07.04 | spldart | I'll have to assume this nic is bad and good....yah know :-( |
03:09.19 | blast007 | spldart: someone on slackware had DHCP issues with that card too |
03:09.40 | blast007 | well, maybe not the exact card, but a davicom |
03:10.00 | blast007 | is it an actual card, or onboard? |
03:10.09 | spldart | ah... well that makes me feel a bit better...hehehe... |
03:10.23 | spldart | like I said... multiple mobo's even.... actual card :) |
03:10.45 | blast007 | heh, might as well junk it ;) |
03:10.47 | blast007 | nics are cheap |
03:11.11 | spldart | yeppers... just thought I'd break the silence with a query to get some juices flowing |
03:11.11 | blast007 | or if you want to live with it, set up the router to start dynamic addresses at .10 or .20 |
03:11.50 | spldart | meh.. I've been meaning to do static through the whole house anywho... I'll 'fix' it that way :) |
03:11.58 | blast007 | :) |
03:12.12 | blast007 | I do static for everything except my virtual machines, and my laptop |
03:12.15 | spldart | It's the wierdest problem though hehe |
03:12.28 | blast007 | it's probably a flaky driver |
03:12.41 | spldart | in windows and linux? |
03:12.45 | blast007 | ewww |
03:12.45 | spldart | that would be odd |
03:12.49 | blast007 | or maybe the card just sucks |
03:12.53 | spldart | YES |
03:13.08 | spldart | I think that's my problem.... card with tiny singularity in it's chipset |

23:51.45 | Draicone | Does anyone know if distribution of binaries via bittorrent is allowed per the terms of the license? |
23:52.25 | blast007 | I suppose, though I don't see a reason to do so |
23:52.53 | blast007 | we would prefer to be able to track the number of downloads via the SourceForge download system |
23:53.19 | Draicone | True |
23:53.29 | Draicone | I've sort of been hosting a BZFlag torrent on my site for the past month or so |
23:53.42 | Draicone | I added a link to it from the wiki, and it's had about 250 completed downloads so far |

23:54.28 | CBG | iirc, you MUST provide the source of the binaries that you are distrobuting. |
23:54.36 | CBG | JeffM2501, is that correct? |
23:54.52 | Erroneous | yes, but not necessarily at the same time |
23:55.03 | Erroneous | for instance, you may distribute our stock binaries with no source |
23:55.05 | Draicone | So, I can have a torrent of the sources and a torrent of the binaries? |
23:55.13 | Erroneous | that is also correct |
23:55.32 | Draicone | Alright then, I'll download the sources and create a torrent of them as well |
23:55.33 | Erroneous | essentially you need to be prepared to give anyone who asks for it the exact sources that were used to build the binaries |
23:55.40 | CBG | ~Erroneous++ |
23:55.57 | Erroneous | you don't actually need to distribute both at the same time, or from the same server |
23:56.33 | Erroneous | if you're distributing stock copies, and you trust SF to not die on you, you can actually refer people to SF to get the sources |
23:56.56 | Erroneous | if you make any source changes you need to have that all available somewhere |
23:57.06 | Draicone | That might be easier actually, my host is complaining I'm using 50% of the CPU on 10 torrents :| |
23:57.16 | CBG | Eek.. |
23:57.17 | Erroneous | heh |
23:57.25 | brlcad | yeah, if you don't make a modification, you're "practically" kosher to redistribute in whatever free manner you please |
23:57.26 | Draicone | I'm just distributing the win32 binaries from sourceforge and the unofficial max dmg |
23:57.29 | Draicone | mac* |
23:58.44 | Erroneous | technically you should retain a copy of the sources also...if SF decides to "pull the plug", and you still have a copy of the binaries up, you are liable to distribute the sources, not them :) |
23:59.00 | Erroneous | practically though, if sf does do something of that nature, we'll just host them elsewhere anyway |
23:59.31 | brlcad | aside from being rather pissed about it too |
23:59.40 | JeffM2501 | why is a torrent needed for that? are the SF mirrors not good enough? |
23:59.50 | brlcad | but only some adverse legal action would likely acause that |
