00:45.28vontrappSupaplex: i don't think so
00:46.03vontrapplike i said, "host google.com" gives an answer immediately, but after it has the answer, it still hangs for 10-20 seconds before exiting
00:46.27nick125i'd double check your nameservers...
00:46.39nick125Set them to 4.2.2.2, just to see if that might help.
00:46.44Supaplex'reverse' dns.
00:47.00vontrappi checked them, there were a couple that were greyed out, and a couple that weren't
00:47.18vontrappthe grey ones worked (though had that hanging problem) and the black ones didn't
00:47.29vontrappthe first dns server was 192.168.0.1
00:47.46vontrappi did "host google.com 192.168.0.1" and got the same, an immediate answer with a subsequent hang
00:48.26vontrappSupaplex: i'm saying since i get a delay without doing reverse dns, that the delay is probably coming from not reverse dns
00:50.54vontrappand besides, i just checked reverse lookups on the remote host, and they work speedy fine
00:51.27vontrappi'm just trying to understand why it might hang AFTER it already has an answer

22:08.30nearnare you using gentoo?
22:08.37nick125I'm installing it to my eeepc
22:08.56nearnhow has gentoo been the past year?
22:09.12nearnI have heard they are not doing so great with there packagemgmt.
22:09.17nick125It's been quite fine, imho.
22:09.30nearnhmmm
22:09.33nick125I've had a few minor problems here and there, but that's about it.
22:12.03nick125Wow, the console on my laptop looks *huge* after I've been using the EEE for a while.
22:12.07nearnwas it daniel robbins that left gentoo?
22:12.23nick125He left a long time ago to work at MS.
22:12.46nearnthats what i thought.
22:13.01nearnok, back to moving office computers around. later.
22:13.09nick125have fun :p
22:14.05SargunI like IPv6
22:14.12Sargunmy network is operating in dual stack
22:14.13Sargun:-D
22:14.15nick125Sargun: That's great
22:14.16nick125lol
22:14.30Sargunnick125, you should get dual stack in your network
22:14.33SargunTriple stack even!
22:14.35SargunIPv6
22:14.36SargunIPv4
22:14.42nick125IPv32!
22:14.45Sargunyeah!
22:14.55nick125Does IPv32 even exist yet?
22:15.03nick125The IP addresses would be like....500 characters long
22:15.11nick125Try remembering *THAT*!
22:15.20SargunDNS
22:15.24nick125Sargun: Of course
22:15.32Sargunping32 nick125
22:15.46Sargunthe packet header would be bigger than the payload
22:15.52nick125haha
22:17.09SargunIt'd be 33554432 characters long
22:18.06nick125This liveUSB is weird..whenever I emerge something, it's like "[ebuild ] blah to /dev/disk/by-uuid/UUIDHERE/ blahkB"
22:20.04nick125And it seems like portage is locking up..hrm
22:25.23nick125I think I see why..../dev/disk/by-uuid/UUIDHERE is basically empty
22:32.50nick125Yay, it works
22:33.29nick125Just have to make sure that I don't forget to use ROOT=/..I get some nasty Python error if I forget to.

23:09.21findlayin fact, I'm in the process of doing it now ;)
23:09.39findlayoh, you're ahead
23:16.01nick125findlay: lol
23:33.38Sargunhaha
23:33.47Sargunnick125 can install gentoo with his eyes closed.
23:33.53nick125lol
23:37.04findlaywell I can install gentoo with a clothspin on my nose
23:37.21findlay*and* with earplugs in
23:37.44nick125That's my typical gentoo install attire too!
23:38.09nick125:)
23:38.15findlaywhat kind of foil hat do you use?
23:38.56nick125I have a few....I usually like my aluminum one.
23:39.06nick125findlay: What liveUSB distro are you planning on using?
23:40.02findlaynick125: really?  I was just going to use gentoo
23:40.10nick125well, for the installation
23:40.21findlaywhy can't you just use an ethernet cord?
23:40.38nick125The standard livecd doesn't have the atl2 driver included
23:41.09findlayhm
23:41.18nick125(which is needed for the eee's wired NIC)
23:41.22findlayis it in the kernel?
23:41.35nick125No, but they are trying to get it included
23:41.43findlaybuh
23:41.56findlaythey *are* making this difficult, aren't they :)
23:42.14Sargun'they'
23:42.15findlaywell, ubuntu should work
23:42.26nick125http://atl2.sf.net < link to driver
23:42.44nick125AllenJB created an ebuild for it, as well as the asus acpi module
23:43.09findlaywhat about wireless?
23:43.36nick125you have to used a patched version of madwifi
23:44.04nick125http://gentoo-wiki.com/Asus_Eee_PC_701
23:44.47nick125Note that according to that page, you can't turn off the wifi using the fn-f2 shortcut
23:45.22findlaythat says madwifi-ng will work (which is in portage)
23:45.52nick125adwifi-ng, at the time of writing, doesn't support the Atheros AR5006EG used on the Eee, but there is a patch in madwifi's trac.
23:46.48findlayI assume that when the patch is accepted switching the wireless off won't hang the driver :-)

23:48.55findlaya whole corral of yaks to shave
23:48.59nick125lol
23:50.40nick125I think getting suspend to work is going to be fun too
23:51.34findlaywhat's suspend?
23:51.45nick125suspend-to-disk
23:52.07findlaywhy would that be hard?
23:52.14nick125Either that, or getting it to sleep
23:52.19findlayit's just a kernel thing, right?
23:52.22nick125like with the default OS
23:52.39nick125meh, I've always had trouble with it on normal boxen
23:57.44nick125Once I can get suspend/standby to work, it should be easy to make it so it will standby when the lid is shut
23:58.32nick125wow, after using my eee for half hour or so, it feels like I'm grabbing a tank when I grab my other laptop
23:58.41findlaynick125: sure does
23:58.51findlayyou get used to that though
23:58.56nick125lol
23:59.18findlaynick125: what kind of init system you putting on yours?
23:59.26nick125I really thought that I wouldn't like the screen size, but I'm really getting used to it. For being so small, text is surprisingly readable
23:59.30nick125default, probably
23:59.32Sargunhe is writing his own init scripts.
23:59.45nick125Sargun: I might end up doing that for certain things
23:59.45SargunIn Cobol.
23:59.50findlayI'm going to try out some of the next gen ones
