00:46.32 | IronManMario | now it's saying hda2 doesnt exist |
00:46.33 | penp | IronManMario: if you call mount without a mount point, it looks in fstab and mtab for a match to see if thats what you are referencing |

02:11.05 | borbus | But I thought it was murmur as in the client for mumble, which is a voice chat app |
02:11.11 | wols | http://daelstorm.thegraveyard.org/murmur.php |
02:11.18 | wols | seems it is what it claims |
02:11.28 | dondelelcaro | borbus: no, it's murmur, which is a client for museek+ |
02:11.35 | cheetahj25 | but i get ; Couldn't find package nvidia-kernel-2.6-686 |
02:11.40 | borbus | Oh.. so there's two apps with the same name |
02:11.45 | dondelelcaro | could be |
02:11.56 | borbus | What will happen if the murmur server is added to Debian? |
02:11.57 | wols | cheetahj25: what debian branch? |
02:12.02 | cheetahj25 | etch |
02:12.07 | GhostlyDeath | oh yeah |
02:12.11 | dondelelcaro | borbus: with a word like murmur, there probably are even more than that. |
02:12.13 | GhostlyDeath | good thing I took a picture |
02:12.15 | wols | !tell borbus about non-free |
02:12.24 | dondelelcaro | borbus: it'll have to use a different name, like murmur-server or something else. |
02:12.26 | GhostlyDeath | Something's wrong with my Sans, Monospace and other fonts |
02:12.27 | wols | oops |
02:12.32 | borbus | The murmur server is free |

03:24.52 | h3xis | Obligatory, im not sure where the smb.conf is located, but you need to find it and then run as a super user: testparm /location/to/smb.conf to make sure the syntax is correct in your shares, granted that youve configured them |

04:54.36 | cycom_mac | Nyle: not a hardware issue then? |
04:54.49 | cycom_mac | works fine with debian 32 bit? |
04:54.50 | JordiGH | Nyle: Are you using binary blobs? |
04:54.52 | Nyle | sid is more stable an etch ime, and I would guess it is because amd64 is constantly updated whiel etch is frozen and not updated |
04:55.02 | Nyle | so lenny/sid are more patched up against numerous bugs etc |
04:55.28 | Nyle | cycom_mac: and under ubuntu/kubuntu gutsy amd64 I have absolutely no issues at all |
04:55.55 | penp | then you obviously don't understand the purpose of stable |
04:55.55 | Nyle | which makes me logically conclude that etch being the first official port of amd64 is not yet as mature as its older siblings, i.e, lenny/sid |
04:55.59 | cycom_mac | Nyle: I would say they are somewhere between sid and etch, wouldn't you? Ubuntu that is. |
04:56.13 | Nyle | cycom_mac: its just a matter of time |
04:56.21 | Nyle | without a doubt debian is superior |
04:56.45 | Nyle | penp: I completely understand, which is why I would like the next stable very much |

14:58.09 | simonrvn | *cough* process limiting |
14:58.10 | Ramattack | Hi mates |
14:58.17 | Ramattack | one very easy question |
14:58.22 | abrotman | how easy? |
14:58.28 | the_sniff | simonrvn: it has as many visitors on right now, why would i want to limit them :S |
14:58.46 | abrotman | the_sniff: so limit the available apache children ? |
14:59.03 | the_sniff | what would that do? |
14:59.05 | abrotman | the_sniff: paste the output of 'free' |
14:59.07 | Ramattack | well as easy I though I got the answer by myself lol, my answer is one debian box has a number of maximum file descriptors and it sets limits per user |
14:59.27 | the_sniff | abrotman: http://rafb.net/p/GEktyD70.html |
14:59.28 | simonrvn | well, you do something about it or quit bitching about it. simple. |
14:59.36 | chops | the_sniff: If you don't have any memory-hungry modules that you don't need, then you may just have to limit the number of children or get more memory. |
14:59.38 | Ramattack | and the reason because it doesn't give you more file descriptors is for avoiding DOS of you're self to you're own machine |
14:59.41 | Ramattack | am I wrong? |
15:00.05 | the_sniff | chops: it's goind to have 2 gbs of ram installed today afaik |
15:00.06 | chops | the_sniff: It'll be better to make the web-serving slightly slow by limiting the number of children to a manageable number than to make it massively slow by letting the server start thrashing. |
15:00.11 | simonrvn | Ramattack: that's normal. set the limit higher if needed |
15:00.12 | chops | the_sniff: Ah, that'll help :-) |
15:00.26 | the_sniff | but untill then i can't have it dead p: |
15:00.30 | Erik1 | during re-install etch over an existing one, (wanna keep /var and /home) I get a 'debootstrap warning about trying to run chroot /target dpkg --force-depends --install var/cache/apt/archives/base-passwd+3.5.11_i386.dec" what is that ? and what should I do ? |
15:00.30 | abrotman | the_sniff: how much does it have now? and which kernel? |
15:00.39 | the_sniff | what would limiting the children do, just increase the wait time? |
15:00.40 | Ramattack | simonrvn, and won't be problems with debian packages? they¡re compiled to support the maximum file descriptors for a standard debian kernel can support? |

15:04.56 | simonrvn | that's nonsense |
15:05.01 | jelly | Ramattack: that's a question for software authors |

15:05.32 | the_sniff | wow the server's dead |
15:05.35 | Ramattack | simonrvn, I know it's not a proper question or normal but imagine you compile a package with some options that enforce you to increase the default limit... |
15:06.01 | Ramattack | jelly, I see... |

15:06.59 | themill | the_sniff: making your users wait for a few milliseconds until there is an apache process available is preferable to the user having to wait a few seconds for a thrashing server to swap that processes back in and and out a few time. |

See http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2008/01/msg00001.html, or see also http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/kde4.html but ask about these experimental packages in #debian-kde not in #debian. see <kde4 videos> |

16:44.03 | Kithylin | Hi |
16:44.13 | Kithylin | how can we help? :D |
16:44.31 | Almindor | if I want to make "generic" debian packages (eg: stuff which depends on few things and can be packaged for more distroes, also older releases), which version would you suggest? |
16:44.35 | S3v3N | Hi. "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade" is that all if I want to update my server? |
16:44.45 | Almindor | the app only needs gtk2+ (2.4 or newer AFAIK) and libaspell.15 |
16:44.48 | Almindor | 0.15 that is |
16:45.13 | Almindor | (I need to also test this on 32bit version, I'm currently residing on 64 bits) |
16:45.14 | jetscreamer | S3v3N: aptitude update && aptitude dist-upgrade |
16:45.39 | *** join/#debian ToNight (i=ToNight@87.110.50.67) |
16:45.57 | jetscreamer | S3v3N: aptitude update && aptitude dist-upgrade , or aptitude upgrade .. there is a new aptitude directive, safe-upgrade, which just means upgrade i believe |
16:45.59 | Almindor | possibly still also kernel 2.4.. |
16:46.33 | chops | Almindor: Is this software open source? |
16:46.39 | Almindor | chops, yes |
16:46.57 | Almindor | chops, but it's not easily buildable |
16:47.45 | chops | Almindor: I would advise trying to get it into the archives as the easiest way of packaging it for Debian (repeating for other Linux distros is an exercise left for the reader...) |
16:47.46 | Almindor | minimal older debian, minimal older rpm-distro and possibly freeBSD 5.x |
16:48.11 | Almindor | I don't think they'll accept something which cannot be auto-built |

16:48.19 | chops | Almindor: The best way I've seen of packaging for multiple distros has been the proprietary software that just links everything statically and ships a single executable, honestly |
16:48.36 | Almindor | linking gtk2 static? are you mad? :) |
16:48.43 | *** join/#debian lepton (n=john@74-136-201-132.dhcp.insightbb.com) |
16:48.43 | Almindor | the RTL is static tho (smartlinked so it's not big) |
16:49.00 | chops | Almindor: I don't think there's a useful middle ground between that and shipping source which can be compiled locally by end-users or placed in the vendor's archive |
16:49.13 | Almindor | it can be compiled by users |
16:49.15 | Almindor | but not by machines |
16:49.20 | chops | Almindor: Just my (probably unpopular) opinion... |
16:49.37 | Almindor | (eg: requires to actually compile in an IDE) |
16:49.59 | chops | Almindor: Well, that's your problem right there. If it's a Linux executable, it really should be automatically buildable. |
16:50.06 | Almindor | there's "build" tool for it but it's bleeding edge so far, so they can't get it other than by source too etc. |
16:50.11 | chops | Almindor: (ideally by make) |
16:50.30 | Almindor | it WOULD be but the IDE which was used for it doesn't separate it's lib parts yet |
16:50.41 | Almindor | so you simply need to get the whole IDE to make it anyhow |

19:36.19 | Nyle | only ubuntards |
19:36.28 | jetscreamer | actually |
19:36.29 | sparrw | sepski: "basic debian" is, imho, what you get if you dont check any boxes in tasksel during installation |
19:36.37 | sepski | sparrw, who need more then 1 xfonts server on your network anyway |
19:36.45 | jetscreamer | what happens in the installer if you choose the 'no root' option... |

19:45.35 | xingu | sepski: test? I've used it in the past; and a quick through google confirms my suspicions; by using a fontserver, you're basically bypassing the xserver's own glyph rendering pipeline - it's getting bitmaps from the fontserver; so this is going to lose in both the uncached case (bandwidth hungry) as well as the libxft2-enabled-client case (ie, most Qt/Gtk apps these days) |
19:46.13 | xingu | sepski: libxft2 will talk to Render - and for some of us, that means gpu-side rendering of glyphs. |

20:06.57 | Guerin | sevard: be careful not to fall back on your slackware habits, though - especially for packages and installation, if you don't like how something is in debian, you can't just go randomly compiling and installing shit with impunity. You need to make it work via apt. |
20:07.06 | sevard | Now that's what I was spinning on, I couldn't find list of applications included in the disc1 or the netinstall, or if there is even a major difference/advantage between the two. |
20:07.13 | Guerin | it might seem a pain in the arse, but it's worth it in the long run |

20:08.13 | sevard | Guerin: of course, I'll be sticking simply with apt-get, I understand entirelly that different distros have very different ways of doing things and from a philosophilcal perspective the last thing I want to do is tailor a debian install to look like a slackware install just because I'm a pendantic ass. |
20:08.37 | chops | sevard: IOW, your "start with nothing and apt-get what you need" is exactly the way Debian is designed to be set up :-) |

20:10.58 | Eulex | Optic, if you run debian you should know what the dfsg is about. |
20:11.08 | Optic | apparently its because the keyspan license says the driver can only be used with keyspan devices |
20:11.10 | chops | Optic: Right, and why? |
20:11.59 | Optic | i would choose a different multiport serial adapter but there aren't many choices in the market |
20:11.59 | chops | Optic: So why wouldn't that be illegal to distribute alongside GPLed software, which may not be linked with software with such a license? |
20:12.25 | chops | Optic: You can download a vanilla kernel and build it by hand with a config based on the Debian config |

23:17.29 | JordiGH | synaptics touchpad works with .24 kernel. |
23:17.30 | xingu | if I stretch this gpu a bit with fsaa/aniso, then all's well; if I don't stretch it, say 2x quicunx multisampling, 8x aniso which it can do standing on its head - then _returning_ from screensaver, the window manager won't gain control |
23:17.38 | Nyle | nspluginwrapper, backported, therefore not in etch.... you can setup maybe wine+firefox, or run a 32bit firefox using ia32libs or just run a 32bit chroot |

23:39.43 | Nyle | enzo: bug is open and unresolved afaict |
23:39.52 | TrueDD | Good night all |
23:39.53 | howlingmadhowie | Nyle: what i really like about free software is that i don't have to worry that much about architecture. like i'm writing this on an sgi indy, and my .screenrc is the same as for my ultra10. it's sooo cool :) |
23:40.09 | Nyle | howlingmadhowie: indeed |
23:40.35 | enzo | how can i know if the bug 393728 will be corrected in next debian release Nyle ? |
23:40.39 | Nyle | oh nm I was looking at a diff one |

23:41.11 | Nyle | enzo: I don't know. Would you like to help resolve it? |
23:41.19 | abrotman | enzo: is it closed ? |
23:41.33 | Agrajag- | g'day, i know there's a debian package with a program that will give you info about what ram slots are in your computer, what type they are and other info. i can't remember the name and my apt-cache search foo isn't working too well. anyone happen to know? |
23:41.44 | enzo | somone has gave a patch there : http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=393728 Nyle abrotman |
23:42.03 | Nyle | I can't recall it either Agrajag- there was one where you can get infor about your mobo and everything else etc. |
23:42.10 | Nyle | crap now I can't remember what it was called |
23:42.12 | enzo | there was an erratum i think there : http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/RAIDvsCrypto, i've not yet tested it |
23:42.16 | Nyle | I just told someone of it like 2 days ago |

23:49.06 | Nyle | I took a look through the type list and I couldn't a type suitable for ram cas latency timings, vendor name etc. |

23:50.27 | Wyzard | Nyle: I wouldn't be surprised if it's possible for software to get that info somehow, but I don't know how |
