| 00:01.49 | elg | that'll keep you busy |
| 00:02.48 | nick125_ | Hm. Here's a question: I'm writing an event handler (it will emit events and call callbacks) in python, if the event has been processed by a callback, should it be placed in the event queue (that hasn't been processed)? |
| 00:04.17 | elg | so what movie should I go see tonight? |
| 00:11.48 | findlay | have you seen Bridege to Terebithia? |
| 00:11.52 | findlay | that's pretty good |
| 00:12.33 | findlay | you should watch Citizen Kane |

| 07:26.42 | bonez39 | fozzmoo, ??? any knowledge of exim and email? |
| 07:27.00 | fozzmoo | I know XMission uses exim. |
| 07:27.06 | bonez39 | hmmm |
| 07:27.06 | fozzmoo | I've always been a proud sendmail guy. |
| 07:27.19 | bonez39 | maybe I should check on xmission's irc room |
| 07:27.33 | fozzmoo | Very good idea. |
| 07:27.54 | bonez39 | my email worked yesterday and then after running apt-get update/upgrade it stopped all incoming email |
| 07:28.01 | fozzmoo | yuck |
| 07:30.27 | bonez39 | yeah.....and it happened JUST after I mailed out a note to 277 of my patients with email addresses |
| 07:44.19 | Supaplex | cool. -z or -j on modern gnutar is optional. (autodetected) |
| 07:44.40 | fozzmoo | that is cool. |
| 07:44.41 | fozzmoo | Now I can go to bed. |
| 07:46.09 | bonez39 | Supaplex, do you run exim? |
| 07:46.43 | Supaplex | no |
| 07:46.48 | bonez39 | ok |
| 07:47.27 | Supaplex | bonez39: check dpkg's /msgs =) |
| 07:47.53 | Supaplex | bonez39: what distro and release are you running? |
| 07:48.22 | bonez39 | debian 3.1 |
| 07:48.45 | Supaplex | any reason you haven't upgraded to 4.0? (etch) |
| 07:49.10 | bonez39 | hmmm it's an older system...I plan too soon...to upgrade |
| 07:49.36 | Supaplex | review the release notes before you do. there's a few gotcha's it'll work around. |
| 07:51.34 | Supaplex | I want to start my own blog, but everything I look at seems bulky |
| 07:53.05 | bonez39 | I am just dead if I can't get my email working....almost makes me tempted to open a winder...but I'd never jump over there....I know I'll figure this out |
| 07:54.52 | Supaplex | did you accidently install the maintainer config over your own? |
| 07:57.48 | bonez39 | I don't think so......but anything is possible.... |
| 07:58.12 | bonez39 | I doubt it though...Mailman still works and it relies upon heavy modification of exim's config files... |
| 08:01.21 | Supaplex | ok. do you know what version of exim was working, before the upgrade? |
| 08:02.26 | Supaplex | there might be something in /var/backups/ to indicate |
| 08:06.40 | bonez39 | I'll check there, as I don't know at this point |
| 08:07.29 | Supaplex | did you get the dpkg factiods? if you have a general idea, you can try progressivly older versions. I'd backup your configs to be on the safe side. |
| 08:07.47 | bonez39 | I saw that from dpkg...yeah.... |
| 08:08.07 | bonez39 | not quite sure how to proceed, but I'll try anything at this point to get my email working.. |
| 08:08.08 | Supaplex | saved my butt many times :) |
| 08:16.32 | bonez39 | I have no clue how I would back up.... |

| 20:10.19 | mheath | hmm. I hate trying to decipher OEM motherboards, to figure out what I can upgrade it with. |
| 20:17.11 | mheath | Can anone offer any advice on CPU upgrade compatability? Have no real specs on this motherboard... |
| 20:17.25 | QBFreak | maybe |
| 20:17.31 | Tene | ~qbfreak++ |
| 20:18.00 | QBFreak | however it has been my experience that its usually not worth it, they change so much so fast now |
| 20:18.14 | mheath | Well |
| 20:18.44 | mheath | This is an AM2 socket Motherboard, with a Nvidia MCP61P chipset. Currently has a AMD Athlon 64 X2 3600+ |
| 20:20.44 | QBFreak | well, you know the socket, thats half the battle |
| 20:21.01 | QBFreak | do you have any model numbers or details on the board? |
| 20:21.39 | mheath | Yeah, but its an OEM board |
| 20:22.08 | mheath | already searched, all you can find is people saying they found the board in a similar model of acer desktop |
| 20:23.05 | mheath | Sigh |
| 20:23.13 | mheath | I miss old Pentium II era boards |
| 20:23.28 | QBFreak | why didn't you say so sooner? I just got rid of a bunch :) |
| 20:23.29 | mheath | Chart printed on the board saying how to adjust the jumpers for various proc speeds |
| 20:24.55 | QBFreak | I doubt you could put a processor a whole lot faster in it anyway |
| 20:25.20 | mheath | QBFreak: Well, this is a 64 dual core 3600+ |
| 20:25.41 | mheath | I know from my searching that Acer itself ships at least 4000+ procs on this same motherboard |
| 20:27.15 | QBFreak | I imagine without trying one, its going to be nearly impossible to find out much more than that |
| 20:29.08 | QBFreak | this PC here has an AMD Sempron 2800+ running at 1.6Ghz and 512MB of RAM, the video is but a GeForce FX5200 |
| 20:30.45 | mheath | "Supports HyperTransport(tm) up to 2000MT/s" |
| 20:37.15 | mheath | Wait |
| 20:38.05 | mheath | I hate this. Hardware technology changes so fast...determining compatability with this new comp, even, is completely different than wwhen I last worked with hardware extensively |
| 20:38.30 | mheath | It the HyperTransport thing kind of like bus speed? |
| 20:39.00 | mheath | I mean, if a proc works with the socket, and is within the hypertransport speed, will it work? |
| 20:40.38 | QBFreak | I've never heard of the thing |
| 20:41.13 | mheath | Foxconn (motherboard manufacturers) info on very, very similar motherboard models is really ambiguous |
| 21:01.29 | mheath | QBFreak: heh, you were confusing me |
| 21:01.37 | mheath | Apparently if its AM2, all AM2 stuff just works |

| 21:46.45 | mheath | Sound bad? |
| 21:49.57 | QBFreak | do you have to mention that it was caused by training? |
| 21:54.01 | mheath | QBFreak: I just wanted to add that, to dispell any thought that I have some horrible medical condition or something. |
| 21:54.26 | Tene | mheath: I think that the "caused by ..." might sound a little sketchy. |
| 21:55.05 | mheath | Just "Honorably seperated for temporary medical issues"? |
