22:14 < KeM> heh.. sure
22:16 < tcr> i'm often surrounded by svenkis and finns :) hear a lot of stuff about you guys XD
22:17 < KeM> what stuff ?? :)
22:17 < tcr> well dunno...
22:18 < tcr> it seems there is a quite funny atmosphere between you north folks
22:18 < KeM> well, making fun of each other creates a funny atmosphere for sure.. :)
22:19 < tcr> yap, that's what i get all time
22:22 < KeM> So.. anyone care to tell me what's special about rock ? And why this is a cool dist..
22:23 < KeM> Just out of curiosity..
22:24 < tcr> hmm..
22:25 < tcr> well, say what you expect it to be or to get from it, then i can say if it's the right thing

22:30 < blindcoder> ah, finally from my own PC again :)
22:31 < tcr> KeM: many people say rock is very bsd like. i can't rate that since i never used a bsd
22:31 < tcr> but you should give it a try
22:34 < KeM> For sure.. but.. package managment. How do rock keep track of whats installed ? I've read the "ROCK GUIDE" but it's quite unclear on how the software is managed..
22:36 < tcr> it will create some directories in /var/adm: flists/, cksums/, md5sums/, logs/ and packages/
22:36 < tcr> packages/ contains description files of every pkg that's installed
22:37 < KeM> standard tar.{gz,bz2} ?
22:37 < tcr> flists/ contains all files belonging to a pkg (in chksums/ and md5sums/ are the ck- md5sums for these files to verify)
22:38 < tcr> logs/ contains the build logs of the pkgs
22:38 < tcr> yes, in 1.5 all pkgs are tbz2
22:38 < tcr> will change in 1.7 though
22:38 < KeM> to ?
22:39 < tcr> called GEM. it's an own format to easiely get the metadata (description, flists, etc) from a package without the need of extracting it
22:39 < tcr> but pure tbz2 will be still supoprted AFAIK
22:39 < KeM> ok, does it make use of mtime data..
22:40 < tcr> mtime?
22:40 < blindcoder> okay, I'm gone now. installing W2k on a 10GB disk and playing a little
22:40 < blindcoder> see you!

22:40 < tcr> damn tab completion
22:40 < KeM> modification time..

22:40 < tcr> yeah, but how should it make use of it?
22:41 < KeM> If mtime newer, file has changed.. etc..
22:42 < KeM> Could be a good thing, but is mostly irritating..
22:42 < KeM> heh.
22:42 < tcr> ah
22:42 < tcr> no, it's handled much better
22:42 < tcr> namely by checking the md5sums of the files
22:42 < KeM> godie
22:42 < KeM> goodie..
22:44 < KeM> It's going to be a hassle installing heh.. Will never buy new hardware ever again..
22:46 < tcr> my fastes box is a pIII 500mhz XD
22:47 < KeM> heh, just bought a xp2000 and some funny mainboard with the vt8235 chip and hpt374 neither is supported in the stable linus kernel..
22:47 < KeM> Had to install gentoo to get linux onto the box
22:48 < tcr> got its kernel patches for it?
22:48 < tcr> with those every distro should run ;)
22:48 < KeM> Well depends.. the kernel used during installation have to support ..
22:49 < KeM> think 2.4.20 have support for both.. haven't chehked..
22:49 < KeM> wtf.. chehked ??
22:50 < tcr> i'm using 2.5 anyway
22:51 < KeM> possible to install rock with 2.5 kernel ?
22:51 < KeM> or rather use the 2.5 to install rock ?
22:52 < KeM> 2.5 got native support for both chips..
22:52 < KeM> :)
22:52 < tcr> nah. 2.4 is shipped with rock
22:52 < tcr> but the first thing after _every_ installation (of _every_ distro) is to compile your own kernel
22:52 < tcr> so it doesnt hurt much
22:53 < tcr> it would probably a pain in the ass if the unstable tree was used
22:54 < KeM> Well.. I'm finding it kind of diffucult to install, when it don't find my discs.. Grr.. SCSI next time.. for sure..
22:54 < KeM> :)
22:54 < KeM> Might perhaps be possible with some form of hacking with a ramdisk..
22:55 < tcr> sure
22:55 < KeM> "I'm a hacker.. and I'm using rock linux" heh..
22:56 < tcr> you could also use every linux on cd distribution that has got 2.5 support
22:56 < KeM> do they exist ?
22:56 < tcr> dunno
22:57 < KeM> Yikes.. Gotta have floppies then.. Damn, haven't used those since.. well.. I can't remember.
22:57 < tcr> it shouldnt even be a problem to install rocklinux over the current system without booting a new kernel
22:58 < tcr> that's always just a question of skill ;)
22:59 < KeM> hah.. got it.. pivot_root is your friend..
22:59 < tcr> starting the installed 2.5 kernel in single user mode, and chrooting to a cd with your ROCK build on
23:00 < tcr> should work AFAICS
23:03 < KeM> <-- bored blurgh..
23:03 < fake> hi
23:03 < KeM> hello..
23:04 < tcr> moin
23:04 < fake> KeM: talking about 1.5 or 1.7 ?
23:04 < KeM> dunno.. heh..
23:04 < fake> did you download an iso?
23:05 < KeM> well.. yes I have downloaded the 1.5 iso
23:05 < fake> hm...
23:05 < fake> then i can't help you ;)
23:06 < fake> 1.7 supports building a "install"-kernel with 2.5.
23:06 < fake> ans also as a system kernel
23:06 < KeM> well perhaps i should set 1.7 as my goal then..
23:06 < tcr> 1.5 not?
23:07 < fake> tcr: not sure
23:07 < fake> tcr: with a bit of handwork, it might also work.
23:07 < tcr> recently someone said it is
23:08 < tcr> but i cant remember if it related to 1.5 or 1.7
23:08 < owl> what works? or not?
23:09 < owl> (in 2 words please)
23:10 < KeM> installingeither1.5og1.7 onnewhardwareeg.vt8235andhpt374
23:10 * owl gets eye-cancer
23:12 < owl> KeM: for what? do you want a (more) stable system or a system where you wanna do development for 1.7? or for what do you plan to use your system?
23:12 < fake> owl: it's just a boot problem
23:13 < owl> fake: ah so.
23:13 < owl> and caused by what?
23:13 < fake> too new hardware
23:13 < owl> ah...
23:14 < owl> but why "installing 1.5. or 1.7"?? *confused*
23:14 < KeM> well, just want to install rock on my comp.. that's about it.. But since i have too new hardware it's kind of complicated
23:14 < fake> you can build 1.7 bootdisks/systems with a 2.5 kernel by just selecting it in scripts/Configure
23:15 < fake> KeM: two solutions. a) wait for 2.6 b) build a 1.7 system with 2.5.
23:15 < KeM> I dont know 1.5 from 1.7.. never used rock before..
23:15 < fake> 1.5 is the stabilizing branch, getting 1.6
23:15 < fake> 1.7 is a playfield for developers ;)
23:16 < fake> getting 2.0 somewhen
23:16 < fake> s,getting,becoming,
23:18 < owl> aeh, hi fake, btw.
23:18 < fake> good evening.
23:25 < owl> *yawn*

23:30 < owl> re (half an hour too early :-(((
23:32 < fake> hae?
23:33 < owl> in half an hour (if then it's 00:00 o'clock) i can disconnect and reconnect with free-isp...
23:36 < owl> btw, is there a script like MAKEDEV for devfs, too?
23:36 < tcr> lol
23:37 < owl> tcr: ?
23:38 < owl> tcr: you don't know what i'm doing, so be quiet and don't even try to offend me!
23:38 < tcr> lololol
23:38 < owl> ARGH!!!
23:39 < owl> does the ignore function work correct in irssi? let's test it. congrats tcr btw, you will be the first person who will be added to ignore-list!+
23:40 < tcr> lolololololol
23:40 < Ge0rG> lol :]
23:42 < tcr> in truth she loves me *bg*
23:45 < fake> owl: devfsd
23:45 < fake> MAKEOLDCOMPAT
23:46 < owl> fake: aeh? i'm not using it in rock... i'm trying to build my own linux-system from scratch...
23:46 < fake> but MAKEDEV is not needed for devices which drivers are devfs-aware
23:46 < fake> owl: so?
23:47 < owl> hm??
23:47 < fake> devfsd only makes symlinks, and can't help you if a driver doesn't register a device correctly to the devfs tree
23:47 < owl> yeah. but i guess at first you have to create the devfs tree, haven't you?
23:47 < fake> no.
23:48 < fake> mount -t devfs none /dev
23:48 < owl> oh, ok. thx.
23:48 < fake> if, for example, you say modprobe aic7xxx
23:48 < fake> the /dev/scsi/*/*/*/* is auto-created
23:48 < fake> (in case you have an aic7xxx ;)
23:49 < owl> no. i'm also trying to mount a cdrom on a floppy-device ;P
23:49 < owl> but thx a lot ;)
23:49 < fake> you are trying _what_ ?
23:50 < owl> fake: hm? why?
23:50 < fake> what are you trying to do?
23:50 < fake> mount -t iso9660 /dev/floppy/0 /mnt/cdrom ?
23:50 < fake> *g*
23:50 < owl> trying to build my own linux from scratch system...
23:51 < owl> (have to much time and so... --> i get ill ideas ;)
23:51 < fake> well, i already got that, but what do you mean by ""
23:51 < fake> aeh
23:51 < owl> by ""?? *confused*
23:51 < fake> "mount a cdrom on a floppy device"
23:51 < fake> . o O ( my middle mouse-button doesnt work.. ? )
23:51 < tcr> women and technics, you know fake..
23:52 < fake> tcr: *nod*
23:52 < fake> *g*
23:52 < owl> nothing. just like "trying to modprobl aic7xxx with not such a controller"
23:52 < owl> fake: mouse? gmp? ;P haha
23:53 < fake> owl: 2.5.50 kernel-config problem, i assume. it works with 2.4.x ... (you can do modprobe ps2-mouse in 2.5... or even modprobe keyboard *g*)
23:54 < owl> for what do i need a keyboard?
23:55 < fake> for breaking stuff
23:55 < fake> doing things a woman should not try to do *g*
23:56 < owl> hm? e.g?
23:56 < tcr> "What is this steering whell for?"
23:56 < fake> owl: using a computer
23:56 < owl> ;P
23:57 < fake> j/k
23:57 < owl> computer r the only "creatures" which are understood by women. they're using logical stuff.
23:58 < owl> s/computer/computers
23:58 < fake> with is, by nature, ununderstandeable for women. women don't even understand simple beings like men.
23:58 < fake> s,with,which,
23:59 < owl> simple beings like a men understand: sex?
23:59 < owl> i guess that's the only thing men understand
