14:15.28 | fugue88 | herlo: Really? I read somewhere in the tubes that just moving your mouse cursor consumers 25% CPU. Maybe he didn't have an accelerating graphics driver. |
14:16.26 | fozzmoo | The KDE4 vs Gnome3 review sided with KDE4. |
14:17.02 | fugue88 | Case closed. |
14:17.03 | fugue88 | :) |
14:20.33 | herlo | fugue88: it's probably due to the graphics, but it isn't consuming my cpu :) |
14:20.40 | herlo | fozzmoo: how old is the review? |
14:20.47 | fozzmoo | Last week. |
14:20.52 | fozzmoo | Linux Mag. |
14:21.25 | herlo | huh, well, GNOME3 is still new and will definitely need time, but I'm using it now and it's definitely fast on my x201 |
14:22.58 | fozzmoo | I think it's probably suffering from some of the same problems KDE4 did when it was first released. |
14:23.16 | fozzmoo | Incomplete admin utilities, unoptimized components, etc. |
14:24.11 | fozzmoo | No, it wasn't Linux Mag... |
14:24.22 | fozzmoo | It was Datamation. |
14:24.24 | fozzmoo | http://itmanagement.earthweb.com/osrc/article.php/3930006/GNOME-vs-KDE-The-Latest-Round.htm |
14:25.16 | fozzmoo | This paragraph was most interesting to me: Running nothing except a virtual terminal, GNOME 3 consumes 883 megabytes of RAM on a one gigabyte notebook. Not only is this requirement more than twice that of GNOME 2.32, but it compares unfavorably with the 615 megabytes needed by KDE 4.6. Realistically, it means that two gigabytes of RAM would be a realistic requirement for GNOME 3 unless you have the patience to continually use the swap partition. That probabl |

14:33.22 | fozzmoo | Looks like a kiosk. |
14:34.23 | herlo | yeah, like KDE4.0 was any better |
14:35.12 | fugue88 | herlo: Can you disable all those icons in the "previously-known-as-the-desktop" space? |
14:35.33 | fugue88 | Or are those there just because you're typing in the search box? |
14:35.44 | herlo | fugue88: the default screen is blank |
14:36.03 | herlo | you can choose Activities and it pulls that up (or Alt+F1) |
14:36.27 | fugue88 | I like how "t" matches "Movie Player" I wonder if any normal user knows it's called Totem. |
14:36.34 | fugue88 | is assuming that's Totem |

14:39.33 | nibb13 | i miss my gnome-panel in gnome-shell and unity |
14:40.53 | herlo | nibb13: do you use unity? |
14:41.06 | herlo | I'm interested in trying it out, but not so interested in Ubuntu |
14:41.36 | nibb13 | running unity on ubuntu 11.4 right now |
14:41.48 | nibb13 | it is very similar to gnome-shell |
14:42.25 | nibb13 | so much so i think they will merge in the future |
14:43.29 | nibb13 | i have been using shell off and on for the last few months, then when ubuntu 11.4 went beta i jumped on that to try unity |
14:43.47 | nibb13 | then i went back to shell for a week |
14:44.19 | nibb13 | the main difference unity uses menu intigration on the top bar ala mac os |
14:45.19 | fugue88 | Seems like a very old GNOME had that menu-bar integration. I actually mostly liked it. |
14:45.35 | fugue88 | Well, similar menu-bar integration, at least. |
14:46.06 | nibb13 | it gives you a little more room on the screen which is nice |
14:46.27 | nibb13 | but easy customization has been tossed out |

15:19.00 | nibb13 | they do, sorry |
15:19.33 | nibb13 | how would i include numbers in the pattern? |
15:19.41 | nibb13 | that appears to be the issue |
15:20.11 | fugue88 | [a-z] becomes [a-z0-9] perhaps? |
15:20.31 | fugue88 | (And that won't match uppercase, or symbols) |
15:26.25 | nibb13 | that worked, thanks |
15:27.23 | fugue88 | Cool. |
15:28.08 | fugue88 | nibb13: Learn you some regex for great good. `man pcre` is a good starting point. :) |
15:28.46 | fugue88 | Regular expressions are such a handy tool, and have a fairly wide-spread use. |

17:35.01 | harleypig | while I'm asking, anyone happen to know a reference to the concept of spirits not being able to interact with each other directly (e.g., they regard the time between death and resurrection as a prison because they can't give loved ones hugs)? |
17:42.01 | smcquay | harleypig: do you mean versus 4-5: http://lds.org/scriptures/dc-testament/dc/129?lang=eng |
17:43.09 | harleypig | No, that's the interaction between mortal and immortal (pre-mortal or non-resurrected) beings. |
17:43.22 | harleypig | unresurrected? |
17:44.37 | smcquay | undead? |
17:44.50 | harleypig | I have this vague quote running around in my head, along the lines of "part of the reason the dead view the spirit world as a prison is because they can't be intimate with their loved ones" |
17:44.59 | harleypig | :] nah ... them's vampires and zombies and sucj |
17:45.04 | harleypig | s/j/h/ |
17:47.11 | harleypig | So, basically, that reference tells us what mortal <-> (pre-mortal|post-mortal(resurrected or not)) interaction is like |
17:47.45 | harleypig | but not what (pre|post)-mortal <-> (pre|post)-mortal interaction is like |

20:02.24 | herlo | it requires money?? |
20:02.46 | shalkie | Not that I know, but his question was about getting funds: |
20:03.01 | herlo | oh, haven't had time to read up |
20:03.13 | shalkie | " Anyone willing to fund a RHEL rebuild project with timely releases, transparent processes and fosters community involvement ?" |
20:03.38 | goozbach | someone who has a spare license should spin up a RHEL box, download all the SRPMS, setup koji and go to town |
20:03.53 | goozbach | I think the centos community is getting burnt out |

20:06.41 | shalkie | To make matters worse, they hold the community at arms length. There was a thread not to long ago where Dag brought up the fact that there could be more community involvement in the build process and more transparent processes. He got roughly rebuked. |

21:16.26 | fozzmoo | Only 8 core CPUs? ;-) |
21:16.49 | goozbach | $7475 |
21:16.51 | goozbach | http://www.siliconmechanics.com/quotes/201605?confirmation=127156574 |
21:16.58 | goozbach | thats minimim price |
21:17.02 | fozzmoo | Hmmm. Replacing them with 12-core CPUs would only add $4400 or so to the cost. :) |
21:17.03 | goozbach | one CPU per node |
21:17.18 | goozbach | who's in? |
21:17.50 | fozzmoo | $7475... that's $3737 between the two of us, goozbach. |
21:19.09 | goozbach | 16TB should be enough storage to start, no? |
21:19.37 | goozbach | well 12 and parity |
21:20.00 | fozzmoo | That's what Bill Gates said. |
21:20.04 | fozzmoo | Or something like htat. |
21:35.04 | goozbach | oh yes |
21:35.18 | goozbach | that also includes a subscription to RHEL6 for one of the nodes |
21:35.20 | goozbach | :) |
21:36.49 | goozbach | who else wants to pony up some monies? |
21:36.57 | goozbach | spread thin enough it becomes doable |
21:37.50 | goozbach | I do like GooZe Linux |
21:37.59 | goozbach | or GoOSe Linux |
21:42.32 | fozzmoo | Yo don't like SOTUSO? :) |
21:43.27 | goozbach | GoOSe Linux rolls off the tounge easier |
21:44.37 | goozbach | heck before we buy this, who has servers sitting doing nothing? |
21:44.41 | goozbach | let's try to build it |
21:45.01 | fugue88 | I've got an Atom processor sitting mostly idle... |
21:48.41 | shalkie | I have some spare hardware. All older stuff though. I have a couple older Suns (Including a cobalt qube3), an older pentium system and I am going to go snag a system from the U for various reasons. ;-) |
21:49.02 | shalkie | And that doesn't involve the two packard bell pentium systems. :-D |
21:50.10 | shalkie | Oh and a laptop or two hanging around that are going idle as well. Oh and the HP PA Risc system. |
21:50.51 | shalkie | I know I have some more hardware, but all older... |
21:52.24 | fugue88 | Sounds like we've got ourselves a cloud! |
21:52.38 | fugue88 | goozbach: Let's get started, already. |
21:52.55 | fugue88 | ;) |

23:49.00 | shalkie | Dag responded through twitter (and the CentOS mailing list). Apparently he isn't starting his own spin. :-( Though his comment to me was that there seemed to be plenty of interest. |
23:49.07 | shalkie | I like the idea of doing goose though. |
23:57.27 | herlo | shalkie: what does goose stand dor? |
23:57.28 | herlo | for |
23:58.44 | shalkie | It was a play off of GoozOS. |
23:58.58 | herlo | right, but it should stand for something |
23:59.13 | herlo | like 'Good Old Operating System Environment' |
23:59.41 | herlo | 'Goozbach's Ornate OS Extraordinaire' |
