| 06:03.13 | atoponce | i had th 386 kernel installed after installing 686 just a few months ago. |
| 06:03.25 | atoponce | don't know what happened, but fixed now |
| 06:04.06 | findlay | atoponce: what distro? |
| 06:04.25 | atoponce | ubuntu |
| 06:04.47 | findlay | compiling the kernel for specific architecture I've heard is a major performance increase |
| 06:05.06 | findlay | I know debian has very architechture specific kernels available |
| 06:05.17 | atoponce | ubuntu will only update the kernel that is installed, so i have to figure out where th 386 came from |
| 06:05.17 | findlay | and gentoo, of course (: |
| 06:05.25 | atoponce | of course |
| 06:06.00 | atoponce | i do wish though that ubuntu would drop the 386 kernel |
| 06:06.18 | atoponce | honestly. know anyone that even uses a 586? |
| 06:06.56 | Tene | I do. |
| 06:07.18 | atoponce | really? what processor? |
| 06:07.46 | Tene | At least I think a PIII is 586 |
| 06:07.49 | Tene | I could be wrong. |
| 06:08.36 | atoponce | p3 and later are 686 iirc |
| 06:08.57 | Tene | lemme check the processor on this laptop |
| 06:09.13 | Tene | athlon4? |
| 06:10.02 | atoponce | 686686 |
| 06:10.04 | atoponce | 686 |
| 06:10.15 | findlay | PI is 586 |
| 06:10.20 | findlay | I remember it well |
| 06:10.20 | Tene | Well, nevermind then. |
| 06:10.24 | atoponce | :) |
| 06:10.31 | Tene | I was certainly confused. |
| 06:10.37 | findlay | the fabulous pentium |
| 06:10.48 | atoponce | findlay: yeah. that's right. the 586 was the plain pentium |
| 06:10.50 | findlay | the name of itself betokened screaming fast |
| 06:10.56 | findlay | 90 MHz |
| 06:10.57 | findlay | ! |
| 06:11.08 | findlay | who could ever use all those cycles?! |
| 06:11.12 | atoponce | p2 introduced 686 |
| 06:12.03 | atoponce | so why ubuntu is sticking with a dead architecture is beyond me |
| 06:12.28 | findlay | 80386 is the base arch (later called x86 by Linux nerds) that all Intel and knock off brands who reverse engineered the instruction set based theirs on |
| 06:13.28 | atoponce | pentium pro, celeron and pentium 2 were all 686 including all amd processors |
| 06:13.31 | findlay | I seriously doubt Linux will drop support for the 586 any time soon |
| 06:13.54 | atoponce | x86 is just short for 80x86 isn't it? |
| 06:14.05 | findlay | atoponce: is that the same generation as the k5? |
| 06:14.45 | atoponce | k6 i think started 686, so k5 was 586. my mistake |
| 06:15.43 | findlay | intel and their occult proc naming scheme (: |
| 06:16.14 | atoponce | they realized they couldn't patent numbers, so thus began confusing the world |
| 06:16.20 | findlay | yeah |

| 15:59.37 | QBFreak | does anyone know if there is a bittorrent tracker dedicated to open source software? |
| 16:00.34 | macnewbold | a tracker you download and run yourself, or a tracker someone is running that you can put your stuff into? |
| 16:00.43 | QBFreak | one someone else is running |
| 16:00.46 | levi | Huh, Nathaniel Hawthorne's wife and daughter were just exhumed from their graves in London and re-buried next to his grave in the US. |
| 16:00.58 | macnewbold | why now? |
| 16:02.54 | QBFreak | although if one is hard to find I may be looking for software to run myself |
| 16:03.27 | levi | The London graveyard was falling into disrepair. |
| 16:03.46 | levi | Get this... a hawthorn tree fell over their graves. |
| 16:05.13 | Jayce^ | levi, that's awesome |
| 16:05.43 | tensai | did they bury the tree in the US too? |
| 16:06.48 | macnewbold | QBFreak: I think generally people just run their own... depending on popularity, they can take significant bandwidth, I think |
| 16:07.07 | QBFreak | a tracker? I was under the impression that they didn't use much |
| 16:07.08 | macnewbold | they're not hard to run, you just need a reliable connection |
| 16:07.29 | macnewbold | not as much as a seed could, but if you get enough hits on them, who knows |
| 16:07.44 | macnewbold | what are you trying to torrent? |
| 16:07.59 | macnewbold | I know azureus has a built-in tracker these days |
| 16:08.03 | QBFreak | I was thinking about making one for the TWiki VM, the thing is huge |
| 16:08.15 | macnewbold | ah |
| 16:08.31 | macnewbold | you probably could talk to the twiki people about hosting a tracker, then offer to be a seed for them |
| 16:08.43 | macnewbold | if you don't put the BT info on their web page, nobody would use it anyway. |
| 16:08.47 | QBFreak | in some ways I am a twiki people :) |

| 16:08.58 | QBFreak | its a wiki, easy enough to add :) |
| 16:09.31 | macnewbold | they might let you run a tracker there |
| 16:09.41 | macnewbold | I don't think they'll seed from mirrors.xmission.com though :) |

| 16:19.47 | ^Migs^ | Well, a theoretical 10 minutes |

| 17:55.48 | mheath | Which is an official FSF / GNU IRC channel |
| 17:55.52 | ^Migs^ | so what does he want you to do? Join the British navy? |

| 18:01.21 | ^Migs^ | mheath likes to stir controversy |
| 18:01.58 | emcnabb | I'm really curious. What does mheath joining the marines have to do with the Hurd? |
| 18:02.28 | ^Migs^ | joining the Marines means the Hurd will lose one user. I'd say that's pretty important. |
| 18:02.35 | mheath | emcnabb, there is a Marine who freqeuents that channel |
| 18:02.51 | mheath | I just mentioned it to him, after I was sworn in and officially joined the Marine Corp |
| 18:03.03 | emcnabb | ok |
| 18:03.05 | ^Migs^ | Marines shouldn't be online. They should be defending our freedom. |
| 18:03.17 | emcnabb | I guess you could have PM'ed him |
| 18:04.07 | mheath | emcnabb, yes, but my choice to talk to him in channel led to personal attacks against me placed in the topic of an official GNU channel? |
| 18:04.12 | mheath | Thats rediculous. |
| 18:05.36 | mheath | He's got a more subtle Gandhi quote in there now (actually one I agree with, but its talking about 'resisting an evil system', and he put it there in direct relation to my support of the 'evil' US government) |
| 18:05.36 | mheath | But for a while he had "People worse than Hitler: mheath" in the topic |
| 18:05.36 | mheath | etc. |
| 18:05.36 | ^Migs^ | haha |
| 18:05.36 | ^Migs^ | where's this charming fellow from? |
| 18:05.44 | mheath | Sweden, I believe. |
| 18:06.05 | ^Migs^ | does Sweden even have an army? |
| 18:06.30 | mheath | I think they actualy have like mandatory 6 months service or something |

| 18:08.25 | mheath | ##hurd. (I know, according to Freenode policy, its unofficial, but its officially run for the Hurd project) |
| 18:08.26 | ^Migs^ | what exactly does he think is "evil" about the U.S. government? |
| 18:08.47 | mheath | ^Migs^, We're 'forcing out fascist beliefs on him' |
| 18:08.54 | ^Migs^ | we are? |
| 18:09.02 | mheath | Apparently. No one informed me. |
| 18:09.04 | ^Migs^ | who's holding a gun to his head? |
| 18:09.19 | mheath | He muttered some reference to the "US Government forcing the shut down of the Pirate Bay" |
| 18:09.24 | ^Migs^ | oh, that |
| 18:09.42 | ^Migs^ | they only did that because the MPAA wouldn't shut up |
| 18:09.50 | ^Migs^ | corporations run our country |
| 18:10.36 | mheath | I was under impression too that it was the MPAA that talked to their government, not our officials, eve |
| 18:10.38 | mheath | *even |
| 18:11.11 | ^Migs^ | no, the MPAA lobbied the U.S. government to do something, and our goverment informed the Swedish police they had to do something or else |
| 18:16.42 | ^Migs^ | at first I thought it was threatening trade sanctions or something, but apparently that's false. |
| 18:16.57 | ^Migs^ | I don't know. I've kind of being keeping up with the story, but not much |
| 18:17.06 | ^Migs^ | it's interesting, though |

| 18:45.03 | vontrapp | and no idea how to find out |
| 18:48.17 | spr | vontrapp, I've often had to fiddle quite a bit with with the hook's permissions |

| 18:50.18 | findlay | why is it a bad idea to put the root partition on LVM? |
| 18:51.01 | nick125 | findlay: no idea.. |
| 18:51.12 | nick125 | maybe if you have to chroot or something, its harder to do? |
| 18:51.18 | nick125 | (i've had to do it before, its not fun( |

| 18:51.52 | emcnabb | findlay: I think it is a good idea |
| 18:51.54 | nick125 | yeah |
| 18:52.00 | findlay | nick125: why is it harder? |
| 18:52.00 | nick125 | if you have to recover data, etc, its harder |
| 18:52.11 | elg | findlay: booting can be hockey |
| 18:52.22 | emcnabb | just activate the volume group and mount the filesystem |
| 18:52.26 | nick125 | yeah.. |
| 18:52.29 | emcnabb | not too much harder |
| 18:52.33 | findlay | because the system you're chrooting from must support LVM to chroot? |
| 18:52.42 | nick125 | just not fun to do.. |

| 18:52.48 | emcnabb | and there's nothing worse than having your root FS be too small (or too big) |
| 18:52.57 | nick125 | getting it to boot is an entirely different story |
| 18:53.01 | emcnabb | findlay: most do support LVM |
| 18:53.31 | elg | emcnabb: sure there is. waiting for a really big / to erase all the way when you type rm -rf / |
| 18:53.53 | emcnabb | elg: true |
| 18:54.25 | emcnabb | or having your monitor explode, having glass spray in your face, and you bleed to death |
| 18:55.36 | emcnabb | that's even worse |
| 18:55.36 | findlay | probably |
| 18:55.36 | emcnabb | probably? |
| 18:55.36 | findlay | probably yeah |

| 19:06.32 | sjansen | emcnabb: Most _modern_ Linux distros support LVM for /. Which means Debian probably doesn't. |
| 19:07.27 | sjansen | Last I checked, gentoo didn't either. But the a Gentoo user can be expected to know how to crack open an initrd, modify the startup script, and package things up again. |

| 19:22.05 | lars-ut | After losing 3GB of RAM, the tech tried a fresh mobo with fresh RAM - worked fine. |

| 20:36.57 | Uncle_Jesse | lol - Web 2.0 - Web 2, Microsoft 0 |
| 20:36.59 | mheath[laptop] | emcnabb, sounds like power problems. |
| 20:37.11 | Jayce^ | the guy pm'd me too "What kind of connection do you have, I'm on dual-t1's and you're saturating me...." :) |
| 20:37.23 | mheath[laptop] | emcnabb, like I said, we offered 4 year warranties on all our machines. We observed reliability for hundreds of customers over years....... |
| 20:38.11 | ^Migs^ | yes, mheath |
| 20:38.36 | ^Migs^ | last year it was kind of messy, but this year we implemented a very simple way to do it. Nice big buttons on the main page: www.weberdistrict.net that say "ONLINE REGISTRATION" then easy-to-follow instructions |
| 20:38.49 | ^Migs^ | and still people are calling like crazy saying "I don't get it. What do I need to send in?" |
| 20:39.15 | ^Migs^ | or "Where do I send it to" even though the instructions state to send them to the schools, and there are popups with all the school addresses at the end |
| 20:39.29 | ^Migs^ | not the portal. Everybody loves the portal we're making. |
| 20:39.39 | ^Migs^ | people hate Edline |
| 20:39.45 | ^Migs^ | it's a piece of crap, imo |
| 20:40.13 | mheath[laptop] | OK, ^Migs^, what happens if I try to register? |
| 20:40.13 | mheath[laptop] | :P |
| 20:40.26 | emcnabb | mheath[laptop]: I don't know what the problem was. All I know is that Dell sold us a set of machines that had hard drives die several times a month |
| 20:40.46 | ^Migs^ | you just get instructions |
| 20:40.52 | ^Migs^ | see the Javascript alert that comes up? |
| 20:41.11 | ^Migs^ | big notice saying "You do NOT Have to print these" |
| 20:41.20 | ^Migs^ | yet people print them anyway and complain about wasting paper |
| 20:41.32 | goozbach | Jayce^: that's where you send the POD |
| 20:41.42 | ^Migs^ | I don't know how to make it any easier |
| 20:41.46 | goozbach | and show him "true" saturation |
| 20:42.23 | ^Migs^ | the schools couldn't even get their act together to send me the registration documents. They were given explicit instructions to ONLY send them in MS Word format. Only half of them even did that. |
| 20:42.50 | Jayce^ | goozbach, that server is my 'leecher' too, sitting on a ds3 :) |
| 20:43.23 | goozbach | heh |
| 20:44.24 | ^Migs^ | instead I get all these ridiculous documents, like Microsoft Publisher, FrontPage documents, some even went to the effort of composing them in PDF, but they added graphics like nuts and ended up with insanely large PDFs that would be terrible for dial-up using parents |
| 20:44.50 | Tene | >< |
| 20:44.58 | ^Migs^ | and last year, I actually had to deal with all your kids' stupid parents. This year, I made someone else deal with them. |
| 20:46.42 | atoponce | ^Migs^: the problem with windows users is they click "next" as fast as they can without reading what it being displayed |
| 20:46.50 | atoponce | the sample problem may exist with your page |
| 20:47.25 | atoponce | s/sample/same/ |
| 20:48.29 | ^Migs^ | so the solution is to make them use a command line on the web site |
| 20:48.42 | ^Migs^ | they actually have to type "read forms" before they type "download" or something |
| 20:48.44 | atoponce | not quite |
| 20:49.04 | Uncle_Jesse | ^Migs^: you should say they're being graded - they'd give low grades to any of their students that didn't follow directions |
| 20:49.05 | goozbach | make the <next> button chastise them |
| 20:49.17 | ^Migs^ | then perhaps they are given a codeword embedded somewhere in the middle of the forms they have to read, and it asks them for the codeword before they can proceed to the next page, to make sure they actually read them |
| 20:49.26 | goozbach | make sure that the instructions clearly state not to hit the next button |
| 20:49.30 | ^Migs^ | kind of like the old copy protection from Sierra games |

| 20:50.20 | ^Migs^ | there could just be a timer. If they click "Next" too fast, it refuses to let them continue, and just crashes their system |

| 20:54.37 | Uncle_Jesse | well, when it was released :-) |
| 20:54.49 | ^Migs^ | I loved the King's Quest series. Also Quest for Glory. |
| 20:54.55 | ^Migs^ | and Space Quest, of course, but not so much for some reason |
| 20:55.03 | Uncle_Jesse | space quest was my absolute favorite |
| 20:55.13 | ^Migs^ | here we go: http://www.infamous-adventures.com/index.php?page=kq3 |
| 20:55.15 | Uncle_Jesse | police quest wasn't bad either |
| 20:55.16 | brac | [Infamous Adventures] |
| 20:55.19 | vontrapp | i only really like space quest [123] |
| 20:55.34 | vontrapp | 4 was ok, but it was too much a change for me |
| 20:55.35 | ^Migs^ | the only Police Quest I played all the way through was #1. I didn't get the other ones until years later. |
| 20:55.39 | ^Migs^ | SWAT? |
| 20:55.42 | ^Migs^ | meh, that doesn't count |
| 20:55.46 | Uncle_Jesse | It would be fun to rewrite kings quest entirely in AJAX |
| 20:55.48 | ^Migs^ | oh Space Quest |
| 20:55.54 | vontrapp | ooh yeah, police quest |
| 20:55.54 | ^Migs^ | I thought Time Rippers was cool |
| 20:56.03 | vontrapp | i loved trying to drive on that darned freeway |
| 20:56.07 | ^Migs^ | agreed, Uncle_Jesse |
| 20:56.12 | ^Migs^ | yeah |
| 20:56.27 | Uncle_Jesse | brings new meaning to putting in the next disk when you move to a new scene :-) |
| 20:56.31 | ^Migs^ | Quest for Glory IV was the best SIerra adventure game |
| 20:56.38 | ^Migs^ | imo |
| 20:57.07 | vontrapp | ^Migs^: time rippers was cool, it was just such a change, and i think there wasn't enough ways to die or something, maybe that's why i didn't like it as much |
| 20:57.15 | ^Migs^ | I understand |
| 20:57.18 | vontrapp | i would get stuck and not even be able to die |
| 20:57.25 | ^Migs^ | AGDI's King's Quest 2+ remake is pretty sweet, too |
| 20:57.36 | ^Migs^ | Sierra games had some pretty nasty walking dead-ends |
| 20:57.36 | *** part/#utah [phoenyx] (n=tthorley@64.147.152.13) |
| 20:58.18 | ^Migs^ | LucasArts games had none of that, nor could you die in most of them |
| 20:58.31 | vontrapp | i actually picked up a set of all police quests at a thrift store |
| 20:58.57 | vontrapp | five cd set (or four?) one was the first four, then the other cd's were all SWAT |
| 20:59.24 | ^Migs^ | sweet |
| 20:59.25 | vontrapp | never been able to play them yet |
| 20:59.36 | ^Migs^ | I never did play Police Quest 2 |
| 20:59.36 | vontrapp | windows just doesn't backwards compat very well |
| 20:59.38 | ^Migs^ | I wish I had |
| 20:59.59 | ^Migs^ | well, it's easy enough to make them compatible. Just run DOSbox. |
| 21:00.14 | vontrapp | haven't tried that yet |
| 21:00.21 | ^Migs^ | well, try it then. |
| 21:00.37 | vontrapp | meh |
| 21:00.42 | ^Migs^ | and for LucasArts games, use ScummVM |
| 21:00.51 | ^Migs^ | <3 Sam & Max <3 |
| 21:00.59 | vontrapp | i have gotten sarien to work with space quest I |
| 21:01.05 | vontrapp | ~sarien |
| 21:01.10 | ibot | somebody said sarien was http://sarien.sourceforge.net/ An Sierra AGI resource interpreter (Space Quest, Police quest, et. al.) |
| 21:01.11 | brac | [sarien.sourceforge.net] |
| 21:01.16 | ^Migs^ | oh cool |
| 21:01.33 | ^Migs^ | I haven't kept tabs on that project for awhile |
| 21:01.40 | ^Migs^ | like, years |
| 21:02.07 | vontrapp | another old time favorite: the Commander Keen series |
| 21:02.33 | vontrapp | i remember playing that when i was supposed to be doing homework |
| 21:03.02 | ^Migs^ | those Apogee games were the best |
| 21:03.03 | vontrapp | when my mom came by i would minimize the dos console and pretend i was |
| 21:03.12 | ^Migs^ | Duke Nukem |
| 21:03.32 | ^Migs^ | what else was there? There was a lot. |
| 21:03.36 | ^Migs^ | someone should make a Commander Keen fangame |
