00:18 < rxr> hm - if I see this synthomps right, there is some bug in 2.1 that prevents gcc from compiling some C++ files here.
00:18 < rxr> for one GCC ICEs when run with the wrappers - and the other never finishes - also not after 30 minutes ...
00:18 < rxr> this also does happen with BYPASS enabled ...
00:18 < rxr> but not with I compile without in the rock chroot and wrappers ...
00:18 < daja77> rxr: that rocknet stuff happens in 2.0.2 too
00:19 < rxr> but well - I just save my nerves and continue compiling it myself ...
00:19 < rxr> daja77: I know ...
00:19 < daja77> k.
00:20 < daja77> can it be fixed by creating an empty file called default?
00:21 < rxr> an empty profile, yes ..
00:21 < rxr> but it should be fixed correctly - later when I feel to ...
00:33 < daja77> sure, i just want to give away that box without producing confusing error messages
00:38 < rxr> ah
00:38 < rxr> just name the card's profile default
00:38 < rxr> or does it not include network cards?
00:38 * rxr off into kitchen ...
00:38 < daja77> it is called eth0 atm iirc
00:40 < mnemoc> eth(eth0) ?
00:41 < daja77> or that
00:42 < mnemoc> that doesn't make much sense considering init.d/network calls only "default" profile
00:42 < mnemoc> using eth0(default) is ugly if you have only one profile :)
00:43 < daja77> indeed
00:43 < daja77> anyway n8
00:43 < mnemoc> n8 daja77 :)
00:43 < owl> gn8 daja77
00:52 < rxr> mnemoc: yes - the profile check need to be improved
00:52 < rxr> eth0(default) is the work around ...
01:02 < rxr> seems one of the next kernels will miss devfs ...
01:03 < mnemoc> what?
01:03 < mnemoc> they will drop it?

01:07 < rxr> half asleep
01:07 < rxr> mnemoc: seems to be very likely
01:07 < nookie> ah, ok
01:07 < rxr> mnemoc: seems they want to delay a 2.7 branch - and merge mayor stuff in 2.6
01:08 < rxr> GKH immediately sent a devfs removal patch
01:08 < rxr> linux-kernel is in flames now - abd IIRC the patch already applied in the -mm tree ...
01:11 < rxr> so /me off into bed ... cu

11:27 < rxr> this damn msnbot*.search.msn.com - they reindex and reindex my sites
11:27 < rxr> on a nearly daily bases
11:28 < rxr> I think I block those damn hosts soon - they pull ontent GB-wise from my servers ...
11:28 < blindy> daily?
11:28 < blindy> I get google hits on my site BY THE MINUTE
11:29 < rxr> hits be reffering
11:30 < rxr> or "hits" by indexing?
11:30 < blindy> indexing

11:35 < blindy> googlebot used to because I use a text-counter on the site for penis-enlargement reasons
11:35 < rxr> only on dl.rocklinux.... msnbots pulled >1.5GB this month !
11:35 < blindy> then I reprogrammed it not to display anything if the REMOTE_HOST was .*google.*
11:35 < blindy> rxr: ouch... robots.txt?
11:36 < blindy> rxr: use it for restricting access to the actual download directory
11:36 < rxr> theoretically I want to be indexed - just that the MSN crap his horrible broken and does not seem to notive static content correctly
11:36 < rxr> and the crappy bot should not index binary files ...
11:36 < rxr> as google does nither (AFAIK)
11:37 < blindy> I'm not sure if I want to be indexed on msn :)
11:37 < SMP> MSN might be the next big thing
11:37 < blindy> SMP: yes, right after Duke Nukem Forever is released
11:38 < rxr> and also I really like to sell expensive Linux stuff to M$ customers ... ;-)
11:38 < SMP> MS is really desperate about gaining marked share over Google - and they might just be on the right track
11:39 < SMP> but we're blocking msnbot, too, for the moment :>
11:40 < blindy> hm... I'm not really following the "what's the best searchengine"-debate
11:42 < rxr> ok - new robot.txt - for dump bots that do not recognize binary files ...
11:42 < rxr> SMP: you will not be at the dev-meeting, I guess?
11:43 < SMP> yes, I won't
11:43 < rxr> hm - compiling Qt related stuff on a K6-2@350Mhz is no fun ...
11:44 * rxr off getting rolls and such ...

12:30 < th> blindy: yea
12:30 < blindy> oh, 1.6
12:31 < fake> cowsay is a vital part of every linux system. *g*
12:31 < blindy> fake: so why isn't it packaged yet? :P
12:31 < fake> blindy: no idea
12:31 < SMP> blindy: 1.almost-6
12:31 < th> a 1.6-pre3 fork ;)
12:31 < fake> because it sucks ;)
12:31 < SMP> package it and I'll vote 'against'
12:32 < th> SMP: what a package is that? "against"?
12:32 < th> SMP: and how does it correspond to cowsay?

12:48 < rxr> the time cowsay goes into ROCK I stop using it completely ...
12:49 < blindy> can someone tell me the problem with cowsay?
12:50 < th> some folks quite hypersensitive regarding it
12:52 < SMP> a) it's incredibly annoying to see that cowsay junk pasted on irc
12:53 < SMP> b) it's great fun to fight over
12:54 < rxr> c) especially on #rocklinux huebi already misussed it a lot

12:55 < th> ahhh it's his personal problem with huebi i suppose
12:55 < rxr> ?
12:55 < rxr> no
12:55 < blindy> ok, I can see b) :)
12:55 < rxr> th: just that a) it was incredible annoying to see it pasted over and over ...
12:55 < th> ahh i see

13:22 < daja77> re
13:23 < th> oh. mkpkg runs cksum even on devices
13:23 < th> that's bad. cause it might hang
13:23 < th> it does so cause it can put devices into flist
13:26 < th> this happens when a install-process creates device-nodes not under /dev
13:26 < th> (in fact this happens on win4lin install)
13:27 < daja77> win4lin? i thought that was outdated
13:27 < th> outdated?
13:27 < th> you mean discontinued?
13:27 < daja77> or that
13:27 < th> no - it's not.
13:27 < Lorini> toll wir haben nen prof aus chemnitz
13:27 < daja77> :p
13:27 < Lorini> mhr! wrong window

13:31 < fake> win4lin is commercial
13:31 < th> yes it is
13:31 < th> why do you tell us?
13:32 < fake> it costs money
13:32 < th> yes it does
13:32 < th> why do you tell us?
13:32 < Lorini> *g*
13:32 < daja77> is it better than say cedega
13:33 < fake> it does bad things
13:33 < fake> i don't want to pay for software that does bad things...
13:33 < th> fake: what bad things does it do?
13:34 < daja77> running windows ^^
13:34 < th> raising TCO?
13:36 < fake> no, it runs software written for the wrong OS ;)
13:36 < th> that's not a bad thing
13:37 < th> fake: imagine i write a bash script intended to be run on cygwin in windows. so i wrote a script "written for the wrong OS"
13:37 < th> fake: following your theory "bash" does bad things
13:37 < th> fake: cause it runs it
13:37 < fake> th: cygwin is a unixish environment for windows
13:37 < daja77> it does!
13:37 * daja77 hides
13:37 < th> fake: but i wrote my script for windows
13:37 < fake> th: you like discussions, hm?
13:38 < th> fake: sometimes
13:38 < fake> th: running windows emulators/whatever is mostly done to get software to run where no native version exists
13:38 < daja77> he likes evil things *ggg*
13:39 < fake> th: that's something i marked as 'not a nice thing to do' in ma brain
13:39 < fake> writing software for windows exclusively is not a wise stratgey
13:39 < th> fake: emulaters can be used to run things because i want to see how the things work on _their_ native os
13:40 < SMP> fake: it is one that makes money - fast
13:40 < daja77> hehe indeed
13:40 < fake> SMP: in my perception of the world, gathering money is not a favourable goal ;)
13:40 < fake> th: why don't you use wine or qemu?
13:41 < SMP> fake: it is a necessary one
13:41 < th> fake: because they do bad things
13:41 < daja77> we should write rock for windows only, and becoming famous
13:41 < fake> SMP: having s/th to eat is, and being healthy... but having lots of money doens't help anyone...
13:42 < th> fake: how do _you_ get your food?
13:42 < fake> th: and please-apply-this-kernel-patch-win4lin doesn't ?
13:42 < fake> th: me hunt deer in forest. *g*
13:42 < th> fake: i's afraid you'd answer this way
13:43 < th> fake: oh yes - but it does this excelently
13:43 < fake> i think there is a great difference between gathering lots of money and earning a bit money you can save for new hardware...
13:43 * SMP thinks VMware is much better than win4lin
13:43 < fake> *nodnod*
13:43 < SMP> it runs w2k and Solaris ... ;->
13:44 < SMP> and XP (but I don't)
13:44 < owl> and openbsd
13:44 < fake> but i think given the fact that qemu is OSS it is still favourable...
13:44 < th> SMP: win4lin is more leightweight. which i prefer
13:44 < fake> an the rock livecd ;)
13:44 < th> SMP: and less expensive
13:44 < daja77> it runs solaris for sparc?
13:44 < SMP> daja77: no
13:44 < th> fake: i must admit - i don't know qemu
13:44 < fake> qemu runs darwin for mac os ;)
13:45 < daja77> k.
13:45 < daja77> is solaris/x86 wirth anything?
13:45 < SMP> pearPC runs Darwin/PPC, too ;>
13:45 < SMP> daja77: nice to play with at least
13:45 < fake> th: qemu rocks. it's small, and it's fast (but not the rock linux package - not yet - it runs with software emulated mmu..)
13:45 < daja77> qemu will have sparc support in the future if i got that right
13:46 < fake> and arm and stuff...
13:46 < fake> (but no mips on the todo list :( )
13:46 < daja77> sounds like you job :p
13:46 < fake> plus you can run binaries for different arches with it

13:49 < th> SMP: does it run on w98?
13:52 * rxr starts to hate this damn old slow broken k62 ...
13:52 < SMP> w98 is listed as supported
13:52 * daja77 wondering if .net runs on reactos
13:52 < th> SMP: so "yes"
13:53 < SMP> whoah

13:53 < SMP> "Quake II .NET is a version of the popular Quake II game, ported to native and managed C++ using Microsoft® Visual Studio® .NET 2003"
13:53 < th> SMP: you have a full w98 installation in there
13:53 < SMP> th: .NET might be too low-level, I don't know
13:54 < SMP> netrunner: I thought that's what Java was made for ;>)
13:54 < th> SMP: isn't .NET just a java fork? ;-p
13:54 < netrunner> SMP: ok, that explains the coffee strains.
13:56 < SMP> th: .NET is to keep the promises that Java couldn't
13:57 < daja77> hm being portable? *eg*
13:57 < netrunner> fuck, what happened here? ./scripts/Build-Tools: line 112: cc: command not found
13:58 < netrunner> is it the chroot tools? how can I rebuild them=
13:58 < netrunner> s/=/?/
14:02 < netrunner> oh, I'd say it got removed by -newdelete.
14:03 < th> fake: so you say qemu should be able to run a recent "bad" OS for using native "bad" software?
14:05 < rxr> yes
14:05 < rxr> although not yet as fast as vmware
14:07 < rxr> damn - why am I alsways the one compiling f*cked up code on non-x86 systems
14:07 < rxr> can't they keep there damn x86ism out of the code ...*sigh*
14:08 < netrunner> rxr: because most people have x86 hw?
14:08 < daja77> because ppc gets less attractive ...
14:08 < th> not as fast as in vmware? uhhh. so i should stay at win4lin
14:11 * netrunner likes those female features. 'oh, I am hungry' - 'ok, I'll cook something'
14:11 < netrunner> hm. now again my usb mouse has x/y reverted.
14:12 < th> which "bad" office version would run in a recent wine?
14:13 < fake> th: yes
14:13 < SMP> netrunner: turn the plug around? ;->
14:13 < th> fake: i asked "which"
14:14 < fake> th: "yes" as answer to the prev. question
14:14 * fake answers in order ;)

14:16 < th> fake: so do you have information about wine and office without that crossover commercial wine-office-packs?
14:16 < fake> th: not really
14:16 < th> ok
14:16 < fake> i once tried office 2000 or so
14:16 < fake> excel and word were... okay.
14:16 < fake> didn't really dig deep though
14:16 < th> "... okay" or "okay"?
14:17 < fake> ...... well, to be honest, i started it, and that's it ;)
14:17 < fake> (iirc the splash screen caused some screen buggyness ;)
14:17 < fake> wine is only useful for games (tm)
14:23 < th> so i really don't need wine i suppose
14:24 < th> so there is only qemu left
14:24 < rxr> wine is not only for games ...
14:25 < rxr> many applications run in it ...
14:25 < fake> notepad!
14:25 < rxr> nonsense
14:25 < fake> minesweeper!
14:25 < rxr> IE, Office, Flash* ...

14:25 < rxr> usable
14:25 * fake likes wine
14:25 < rxr> and this was even some years ago ...
14:26 < fake> i'm just saying: if you have an alternative, take it
14:26 < fake> wine is the last resort
14:26 < th> rxr: regarding office the homepage pushes one to crossover
14:26 < th> which is commercial
14:26 < rxr> just e.g. AutoCAD did not run because of too heaviy OLE* s.t. usage
14:26 < rxr> oh - really? That sucks ...
14:26 < rxr> but it used to run in Wine ...
14:26 < th> rxr: which vefrsions?

14:28 < th> ok

14:41 < netrunner> never mind
14:43 < rxr> 14:08 < netrunner> rxr: because most people have x86 hw?
14:43 < rxr> one can also write portable code - no matter what one has ...
14:44 < rxr> 14:08 < daja77> because ppc gets less attractive ...
14:44 < rxr> g5 are quite attractive ...
14:44 < th> rxr: but this could cost more work

14:45 < rxr> does survive cpuburn and memtest86+ - this get's boring
14:45 < rxr> wonders if there is s.th. in 2.6.7 that does not like this box ...
14:45 < th> hmmm winetools don't crash randomly - they crash for sure.
14:45 < rxr> daja77: only the fastest one has water cooling ...
14:45 < daja77> rxr: what I meant is, your ibook works nice with linux, newer ones not, and the prices are still too high
14:46 < rxr> the dual 2.xGhz one ...
14:46 < rxr> the recent ones work, too. Just no Suspend to RAM yet, and no airport extreme
14:47 < rxr> and it is not apples fault that we do not have the Broadcom specs nor the ATI specs for suspend to ram wakeup with recent Radeon chips ..
14:47 < rxr> and iBooks are not expensive
14:48 < rxr> and the top g5 model only has water cooling to be as quite as all g5 boxes ...
14:48 < daja77> it is their fault to ship that stuff
14:48 < daja77> it is their decision
14:49 < daja77> if i want non working hw with linux i could stick to pc hw as well
14:50 < rxr> huh? it is working
14:50 < daja77> hm
14:50 < rxr> and you do not need to plug a Airport extreme into it - just put a USB WiFI adapter in it ...
14:50 < rxr> then only Suspend to RAM is left - and this dos not work on most x86 either
14:50 < daja77> ack
14:51 < rxr> and you still have 5h+ battery life and so on ...

14:55 < daja77> -Os is considered evil
14:56 < jsaw> my system (2.0.something) is compiled with -Os and I have no problems
14:57 < daja77> i was unsure if in 3.4 builds some faults were due 3.4 in general or due -Os
14:57 < jsaw> mainly mmx related...
14:58 < fake> jsaw: yes
14:58 < fake> jsaw: that zoom_filter_xmmx, right?
14:58 < jsaw> right

15:07 < th> rxr: what are x86 heatsinks?
15:08 < rxr> the crappy ones sold for x86 mainboards ...
15:09 < rxr> compared to higher quality products in non-x86 systems ..
15:09 < rxr> ones where one does not destroy the PCB while trying to remove it ...
15:09 < th> and what about comparing to higher quality products in x86 sysmtes?
15:10 < ringo> fujitsu siemens is ok

15:50 < ringo> a fan on top of it might help

16:25 < netrunner> jsaw: it's your fault that my build broke.
16:25 < jsaw> really?
16:25 < jsaw> what broke?
16:25 < netrunner> I ran -newdelete after applying your patches, and something vital got removed.
16:26 < netrunner> jsaw: nothing directly broken by you :)
16:26 < jsaw> I usually delete 0 and 1 stages
16:26 < jsaw> that cures this problem
16:26 < netrunner> maybe it's the -dry-run for -newdelete patch ...
16:26 < netrunner> jsaw: how? just the logs?
16:26 < jsaw> yes
16:27 < jsaw> well, you may still encounter errors:
16:27 < jsaw> [0] base/binutils [0] base/gcc34
16:27 < jsaw> but these were not vital (after this [01]-* delete)
16:28 < jsaw> see 2004072315195223934, that might have been your problem.
16:28 < netrunner> I have a shared from 0-gcc34 anyway iirc
16:28 < jsaw> yes, exactly
16:29 < jsaw> (flist is kept, so...)

20:58 < netrunner> It would be a pity not to have Stephen Moore. He's been the voice of Marvin for the radio series, the TV series, the song Marvin I Love You, and even did an edition of the books on tape (seek them out if you want to hear him sing "How I Hate The Night").
20:58 < netrunner> The only other person I think I could accept as Marvin is a male voice actor who has done the voice of Eeyore, like Peter Cullen or Ralph Wright. A deep voice of depression. Warwick Davis I fear would need too much electronic manipulation to get the tone needed which would get in the way of his acting ability as heavy alien makeup gets in the way for actors in front of cameras.

20:59 < netrunner> Worth noting, though, is that if you subscribe to their IMDbPro [imdb.com] web site, they have news items (subscription required) [imdb.com] available from The Hollywood Reporter that confirm the casting of Martin Freeman (Dent), Mos Def (Prefect), Rockwell (Zaphod), and others. It may still not be written in stone, but when it comes from The Hollywood Reporter, it can be considered pretty reputable.

20:59 < netrunner> It really doesn't matter who plays whom. What's more worrying is that Adams' script is being rewritten. HHGTTG is probably the finest comedy written thus far in human history and the idea that somebody could do better than DNA is tantamount to heresy.
20:59 < netrunner> The main reason the film has never been made is that Adams was never happy with what Hollywod was offering. Do we really thing he'd be happy with some droid scriptwriter massacring his work?

21:01 < netrunner> While I agree that no real liberties should be taken with the script, you have to consider that the "script" was in about fourteen different versions in various states of revision and written over many years. Each had different bits in different places, conflicting plotlines, and few if any of the scripts were near completion. The whole thing was in serious need of editing and smoothing out.
21:01 < netrunner> His favorite way to write was under extreme pressure, such as the editor was in the sitting room and DNA was typing like a mad man handing over each chapter as it was done for review and editing. Each of his books was a combination of DNA's wit and an editor's wringing.
21:01 < netrunner> DNA was a funny man and a great writer, but punctual and organized (as a writer at least) he was not.

Just reading a review of "The Cable Guy" scarred me for life. Reeves may be a lame actor, but at least he's been in movies I would actually want to watch.
21:01 < netrunner> And let's not even get into how they're completely raping the works of our poor, beloved, late Dr. Seuss. I don't know what's worse, the reptilian smarminess of Jim Carrey or the crushing, leaden unfunniness of Mike Myers, who makes Walter Cronkite look like Robin Williams.
