| 00:41.21 | synic | is there an easy way to send all audio on one machine to a soundcard on another? |
| 00:41.44 | synic | ... in other words, I want to launch a media player on this machine, but have it play on the speakers attached to another machine |

| 00:44.45 | bonez45 | anyone know how to resolve passwd problem, upon installing on a new system? |
| 00:44.56 | levi | synic: There have been ways to do that, but I don't know what the current one is. |
| 00:45.04 | bonez45 | I installed ubuntu server.. and now, despite setting up user and root passwds....none of them work |
| 00:45.18 | bonez45 | it installed with no problems.. and then rebooted, as expected |
| 00:45.43 | bonez45 | levi: might you know about such passwd issues? |
| 00:45.48 | Sargun | bonez45, what's your problem? |
| 00:46.22 | Sargun | synic, ALSA, ESD, or else? |
| 00:46.28 | bonez45 | I have a box.. that I want to run as my server.. so I d/l'd the ubuntu 8.04 server edition.. burned it and ran it by rebooting that box.. |
| 00:46.46 | synic | Sargun: I guess I'll rephrase my question. |
| 00:46.58 | bonez45 | it installed, or appeared to without any error |
| 00:47.07 | synic | Obviously there is a way to do what I asked. Does anyone have a URL or search phrase I could use? |
| 00:47.09 | Sargun | bonez45, Do you have a redhat/fedora 'rescue' cD? |
| 00:47.18 | synic | :) |
| 00:47.23 | Sargun | synic, -_- |
| 00:47.25 | bonez45 | it provides a prompt, I enter root and then my root passwd .. no recognition.. |
| 00:47.30 | bonez45 | I do it as root too.. |
| 00:47.32 | Sargun | synic, I'm asking what sound system does the media player use? |
| 00:47.40 | Sargun | bonez45, Do you have a redhat/fedora 'rescue' cD? |
| 00:47.45 | bonez45 | I don't have a redhat/fedora live cd . no.. |
| 00:47.55 | synic | it's intrepid, pulseaudio and alsa |
| 00:47.58 | bonez45 | there's a rescue option on this ubuntu server disc.. |
| 00:48.08 | levi | bonez45: Don't enter root, enter your user name. |
| 00:48.40 | bonez45 | I tried that, got a prompt, and then ran 'passwd root' and entered what I want the root passwd to be.. and it said it accepted it.. but still after rebooting, I can't log in... |
| 00:48.50 | bonez45 | I have attempted to log in as user too.. |
| 00:48.51 | bonez45 | no go.. |
| 00:49.19 | bonez45 | with using my user id passwd and root passwd, and every one I can think of.. until I get Too Many Tries.. |
| 00:49.22 | levi | How'd you get a prompt to run passwd root if you oculdn't log in as a user? |
| 00:49.28 | Sargun | bonez45, Does the audio need to propagate instantly? |
| 00:49.58 | Sargun | bonez45, Do you have the ubuntu rescue CD? |
| 00:50.07 | bonez45 | what audio? I don't even care about audio on this machine, no X on it.. it's my server machine.. no audio.. nothing fancy, but I am hoping to have it working.. |
| 00:50.17 | Sargun | synic, Does the audio need to propagate instantly? |
| 00:50.17 | bonez45 | I have the Ubuntu 8.04 lts server CD... |
| 00:50.30 | levi | Ubuntu, by default, disables the root account. You're supposed to log in as a user and use sudo. |
| 00:50.35 | synic | nope, just wanna play some music. |
| 00:51.16 | Sargun | synic, you have two options: A) Use the Alsa loopback car, then use an icecast client and stream it to an ice cast server, and then have machine everywhere in the world as icecast clients stream it back. |
| 00:51.22 | Sargun | B) NFS. |
| 00:51.41 | Sargun | levi, I think he's locked out of his normal account too. |
| 00:52.02 | bonez45 | all I get on this SERVER installation is a prompt....to log in.. no GUI, no X.. just console.. with prompt, asking for user id and passwd which I provide with the passwrd I know I set up.. still I can not log in.. |
| 00:52.15 | bonez45 | yeah, I am lockd out of my normal account too.... |
| 00:52.30 | bonez45 | I have never experienced this....excitement.. |
| 00:52.33 | Sargun | bonez45, Boot up using the rescue CD. |
| 00:52.40 | Sargun | then chroot |
| 00:52.42 | Sargun | then passwd |
| 00:52.49 | nick125_screen | then profit |
| 00:52.52 | bonez45 | ok, I have done this.. where do I chroot? just get a prompt? |
| 00:53.01 | Sargun | nick125_screen, ah, yes, then profit |

| 00:54.48 | Sargun | synic, So, NFS, or the simple icecast server? |
| 00:54.51 | Sargun | you could use AFS. |
| 00:55.05 | Sargun | and then use a variety of caching servers to distribute the data in an optimal manner. |

| 17:12.15 | Jayce^ | ^Migs^, loss of brain functionality after seeing harleypig in a thong |
| 17:12.35 | Sargun_Screen | hehe |
| 17:15.17 | ^Migs^ | if a man wants to dress up in a thong, are you supposed to buy your own thong, or is it acceptable to borrow your wife's? |
| 17:16.40 | tensai | ^Migs^: the answers are no, no, no and no |
| 17:17.35 | ^Migs^ | I'm just trying to figure out how this works |
| 17:17.53 | ^Migs^ | I mean, I wouldn't want to waste good money on a thong if I can just rummage through my wife's drawer |
| 17:18.06 | ^Migs^ | er, not me, per se |
| 17:19.41 | Sargun_Screen | old women should not wear thongs (your wife) |

| 18:42.13 | fozzmoo | I don't know of a yum command that adds a repository. |
| 18:42.35 | unum | oh I guess I was confused. may it was an rpm command |
| 18:43.03 | fozzmoo | unum: However, if you have a URL for an release RPM (which contains the relevant /etc/yum.repos.d/ files), you can install it with a single 'rpm -Uvh repo-release-blahblah.rpm' command |
| 18:43.28 | fozzmoo | A lot of the third party repositories have release RPMs you can install which do the heavy lifting of creating files in /etc/yum.repos.d for you. |
| 18:43.34 | fozzmoo | (which isn't hard, but we're lazy, right?) |
| 18:43.41 | unum | that's what I was thinking |
| 18:44.07 | fozzmoo | unum: Does your Boss only buy new Dell or old Dell? |
| 18:44.20 | fozzmoo | i.e. stuff on Ebay. |
| 18:45.36 | unum | stuff on ebay |
| 18:45.48 | fozzmoo | I worked for a guy that did that. |
| 18:45.53 | fozzmoo | Made no sense to me whatsoever. |
| 18:46.07 | fozzmoo | I mean, buying stuff new is nice because you've got a new warranty and Dell's service is pretty nice. |
| 18:46.27 | fozzmoo | But having to service out of warranty Dell hardware yourself is a PITA. |
| 18:46.57 | unum | so all our server are atleast three year old dells running redhat/centos |

| 21:34.44 | Sargun_Screen | Forgive my mild understanding of nuclear waste, but it emits gamma rays? Why can't we apply nuclear battery technology to the waste in order to harvest the energy that it is still emitting? |
| 21:49.42 | levi | We don't reprocess spent nuclear fuel at all here. |
| 21:52.56 | levi | But it is possible to process it to extract the fissionable materials from the waste so they can be re-used in the reactors. |
| 21:53.39 | levi | The problem was that reprocessing can yield weapons-grade plutonium. |
| 21:56.07 | tensai | so instead we leave spent uranium in temporary storage facilities at nuclear plants all over the country |
| 21:56.39 | levi | There are newer reprocessing technologies that produce fuel less likely to be usable as weapons material and also produce less dangerous waste, but the unpopular nature of nuclear power and especially reprocessing has prevented them from being developed and put into use. |
