[03:20] < n00kie> i'm just running 2
[03:20] < n00kie> and they are too loud :P
[03:21] < _NULL_> n00kie: mine here, too. esepcially 'erebos' (one machine, not my distro) - it's old and loud...
[03:21] < n00kie> hehe
[03:21] < n00kie> my server has a very loud powercooler
[03:21] < n00kie> need to remove it
[03:23] < _NULL_> hehe ;) i'm happy that my router and so are standing in the special "computer room" where the alpha, printer, router, workstations and so are located... just my notebook and one machine are in my room ;) but it's loud and hot enough in here... (and the celeron-notebook is a good hottage too)
[03:24] < n00kie> Hmm
[03:24] < n00kie> I have an old ibm thinkpad near me
[03:24] < _NULL_> hehe ;) which one?
[03:24] < n00kie> 486er 900mhz
[03:24] < n00kie> 90
[03:24] < n00kie> 8megs ram
[03:24] < n00kie> and floppy
[03:24] < _NULL_> *g*
[03:24] < n00kie> 90mhz not 900 :)
[03:25] < _NULL_> a bit old... ;p
[03:25] < _NULL_> but i have an 50 mhz (?) 386 or 486er NB too - in the other room ;)
[03:25] < n00kie> Well, i used it last time before 2 years

[03:36] < n00kie> How many megs contains download -required ?
[03:37] < mnemoc> depends of your target ;)
[03:38] < n00kie> target is generic
[03:38] < mnemoc> too many :(
[03:38] < n00kie> that means? ;)
[03:39] < mnemoc> never downloaded a generic :(
[03:39] < mnemoc> -required for generic almost means -all
[03:39] < mnemoc> i guess about 2GB
[03:39] < n00kie> ah
[03:39] < n00kie> thats too much
[03:40] < mnemoc> bootdisk is a good target
[03:40] < n00kie> hmm
[03:40] < mnemoc> about 300MB
[03:40] < n00kie> well, i just wanna have a "minimal" system
[03:40] < n00kie> to build it up :)
[03:41] < n00kie> mnemoc: Should I use bootdisk then ?
[03:41] < mnemoc> mmm....
[03:42] < mnemoc> bootdisk builds enoght for that... but i don't know what does it installs
[03:43] < mnemoc> rxr is working on a livecd just for that
[03:44] < n00kie> yes
[03:48] < n00kie> I'll go to bed

[09:51] < rxr> hi
[10:06] < netrunner_> hm ... if only the 20th try to extract the kernel is succesfull, could this be the cpu, or the mem, or the nfs-share?
[10:21] < rxr> what is the error you get ?
[10:21] < rxr> if it is not an io error - my guess is CPU or Memory ...
[10:49] < netrunner_> the file is ok. and ... now it segfaults during build. I'll do a memcheck :)

[13:01] < blindcoder> hehe
[13:02] < daja77> strange everybody is reporting that the preinstalled mktemp 1.5 doesn't have -p option on suse and redhat
[13:02] < daja77> why do they cripple mktemp, don't get it

[13:12] < esden> good day everyone
[13:12] < blindcoder> daja77: because elsewhere the same ribbons are 10$
[13:13] < blindcoder> but it looks like they aren't available anywhere in germany...

[13:14] < blindcoder> daja77: at least not on the net. Hmm... I could buy a "new" one including 5 ribbons on eBay for one Euro
[13:15] < blindcoder> I think I'll go to a local Office Store and look there
[13:15] < daja77> blindcoder: that's what I mean it is cheaper to buy a new than to buy a ribbon, strange eh

[16:24] < esden> hmm ... I am not sure ... but I think that it is no problem ... because in ncurses are also the termcap definitions included
[16:25] < esden> IIRC there was a discussion on the mailinglist some time ago about it ...
[16:26] < daja77> well I tried to install a build I did some weeks ago, it has no termcap package included, install aborts on two pcs claiming there is no definition of a linux terminal, on a third pc it worked
[16:29] < esden> hmm ... that is strange ...
[16:30] < esden> do you get an .err in termcap?

[16:58] < daja77> Mike1: congrats
[17:00] < daja77> Mike1: how come?
[17:01] < Mike1> mom
[17:07] < esden> daja77: https://www.rocklinux.org//mailing-list/rock-linux/2003-1/215.html <- about the termcap/ncurses problem
[17:07] < esden> but there was a better mail somewhere but I can not find it yet
[17:09] < daja77> hmmm termcap builds when I do Build-Pkg termcap but it doesn't get included in the iso
[17:12] < Mike1> esden: God bless you MPET
[17:14] < esden> bless you Mike1
[17:14] < Mike1> :)
[17:14] < esden> daja77: termcap is disabled by default
[17:14] < esden> daja77: ncurses package normally includes internal termcap
[17:14] < esden> look in the .conf files of termcap and ncurses
[17:15] < esden> ehhm ... I mean in the .conf file of ncurses ...
[17:15] < esden> there you can see it
[17:15] < daja77> but stone didn't work after chroot, cause of missing terminalö description O_o
[17:16] < daja77> will have a look if ncurses is present
[17:16] < esden> perhups they removed the internal termcap from ncurses ...
[17:16] < esden> that could be ...
[17:17] < esden> or the check in .conf of ncurses is wrong
[17:18] < daja77> hmm better I do a checkout than looking around in the old sources
[17:18] < esden> daja77: the story about ncurses/termcap is pretty old though
[17:20] < daja77> yeah my sources are newer than the mail, but anyway I'll do a new build *sigh*

[18:19] < clifford> Hi all.
[18:23] < esden> hi clifford!
[18:23] < esden> clifford: how are you?
[18:23] < _NULL_> hi clifford
[18:23] < Lorini> hi clifford
[18:24] < daja77> hi clifford
[18:24] < clifford> esden: Oh I'm fine. thanks. Just the usual stress... ;-)
[18:25] < esden> clifford: have you got my x86 kernel.conf.* patch?
[18:25] < esden> or you had only no time to look at it?
[18:27] < clifford> yup - I'm currently applying patches (you might see the 'applied' mails coming in right now).
[18:28] < esden> ack saw it now
[18:30] < esden> clifford: I am currently working on the uclibc target ... ofyi ... I first had to learn m4 because the configuration of uclibc is just like the kernel and m4 seems to be here apropriate ...
[18:31] < esden> I want to introduce something new there ... a gcc that is using uclibc as default
[18:31] -!- LocalHero [[email protected]] has joined #rocklinux
[18:31] < LocalHero> Hi all
[18:31] < esden> I wanted to do it in dietlibc target ... but I have not yet managed it to get the STARTFILE ENDFILE SPECS correctly
[18:31] < LocalHero> How is it going with Rock 2.x?
[18:32] < LocalHero> Any isos ready yet :)
[18:32] < esden> it is the only way to get the dietlibc/uclibc target beyond building gcc3 in stage2
[18:32] < esden> not the only ... but the only sane
[18:32] daja77 is wondering if the trolls are out today
[18:32] < Mike1> LocalHero: hi :)
[18:32] < esden> daja77: ?
[18:33] < Mike1> LocalHero: your head is wanted in the rock linux developers gallery
[18:33] < LocalHero> Mike1: Hi, long time noseing :)
[18:33] < daja77> esden: don't worry
[18:33] < Mike1> LocalHero: i've been quite busy, thats all.

[18:34] < LocalHero> Mike1: ,, I know, i finaly have some spare time and im looking at all the mails i have left in my todo mailbox :)
[18:34] < Mike1> daja77: trolls are always out
[18:34] < daja77> Mike1: ack
[18:35] < blindcoder> g'evening *yawn*
[18:35] < esden> Mike1: but not everywhere ... they have their special feeding places like the kernel mailinglist or the suse mailinglists ;-)
[18:35] < esden> re blindcoder

[18:35] < esden> daja77: ack

[18:36] < Mike1> esden: there is one right behing you in this moment
[18:36] < daja77> I can see him
[18:36] esden is sitting nervous in front of his computer beeing afraid what clifford will say to his patch ...
[18:37] < esden> hiding from clifford ;-)
[18:37] < Mike1> esden: don't hide coward!
[18:37] < esden> Mike1: aaaaargl
[18:37] esden is a coward ... otherwise I would be dead already

[18:43] < clifford> esden: is the patch tested?
[18:43] < esden> yes
[18:43] < clifford> applied.
[18:43] < esden> wee !!
[18:43] < Lorini> (i love this weee)
[18:43] < esden> clifford: should I continue to make such cleanup patches?
[18:44] < daja77> Lorini: ack
[18:45] < esden> a wee for Lorini : WEEEE
[18:46] < Mike1> Lorini: WEEEEEEE!
[18:46] < daja77> Mike1 can longer *cough*
[18:46] < clifford> esden: hmmm... ask rene (this kind of cleanup is also some kind of redesign - so I'm not sure if it's not better to wait for 2.1 for spending time with it - It's something diffrent if you have already a patch...)
[18:46] < Lorini> lol
[18:46] < Lorini> thanks
[18:47] < esden> clifford: I made it only to start using m4 ... I saw this peace of code and thought that it is not really clean and changed it ...
[18:48] < esden> clifford: I will first continue my work on uclibc target and dietlibc target ... I hope that uclibc target will help me with some problems I have in the dietlibc
[18:49] < esden> clifford: you are right that such cleanups should be saved for 2.1 ... I think that is too late to do such stuff ... it can break things easyly ... and it is not the right moment for that ...
[18:56] < esden> ok ... I am away ... cu all
[18:57] < clifford> cu esden.
[18:57] < daja77> bye esden
[18:58] < daja77> clifford: do you have some time for a non trivial question?
[18:59] < clifford> daja77: I think so (depends on how non trivial the question is ;-) ..
[19:00] < daja77> channel or query?
[19:03] < clifford> Channel (if it's ROCK related ;-)
[19:03] < daja77> it is
[19:04] < clifford> so..
[19:04] < daja77> well I'm trying to do a realtime target for rock linux using the rtai package
[19:05] -!- LocalHero [[email protected]] has joined #rocklinux
[19:05] < daja77> this package requires a kernel patch (which introduces realtime scheduler to kernel)
[19:05] < clifford> aha. (sounds interesting)
[19:05] < LocalHero> Mike1, Back, did you want a photo for the site? Dont remember who sent the mail to me :)
[19:06] < daja77> the patch should only be applied if realtime target is chosen
[19:06] < Mike1> LocalHero: esden is the devs gallery guy
[19:06] < Mike1> LocalHero: look at: https://www.rocklinux.org/people/esden/gallery/
[19:06] < Mike1> LocalHero: we want you there too.
[19:07] < daja77> so I used var_append patches for kernel, when rtai is chosen
[19:07] < Mike1> BTW /me once express how honored he feels to be in the top of the rock developers gallery :))
[19:08] < clifford> daja77: Yes. 'var_append lx_patches " " patch_file' should do it.
[19:08] < daja77> unfortunately this breaks the kernel build cos of this line in linux24.conf
[19:08] < daja77> ln -sf ../../../usr/src/linux-${ver}-rock \
[19:09] < daja77> $root/lib/modules/${ver}/build
[19:10] < daja77> the realtime patch modifies the module path from /lib/$ver/ to /lib/$ver-rthal5
[19:10] < mnemoc_> have to patch EXTRAVERSION
[19:11] < daja77> mnemoc_: tell me more
[19:11] -!- tcr [[email protected]] has joined #rocklinux
[19:11] < mnemoc_> on the root Makefile
[19:13] < mnemoc_> you can patch the patch to not modify that line, or re-patch kernel to remove the appended EXTRAVERSION
[19:13] < mnemoc_> at least that's how i do it :\
[19:13] < daja77> you use rtai?
[19:13] < mnemoc_> no... but ohter kernel patches that do the same modification ;)
[19:14] < tcr> what's the matter?
[19:14] < clifford> hm.... but maybe it would be nicer to actually have a long name in /lib/modules (and in uname output). But I see problems with applying multiple such patches ,,,
[19:14] -!- senaxl [[email protected]] has quit (".-././-.-./---/-./..-./../--./..-/.-././.-.-.-/.-.-.-/.-.-.-")
[19:15] < mnemoc_> instead of patching EXTRAVERSION we could patchit to APPEND them
[19:15] < daja77> what if you would change the line into
[19:15] < mnemoc_> (new lines to Makefile, instead of altering the original)
[19:15] < daja77> $root/lib/modules/${ver}/build
[19:15] < daja77> sorry
[19:15] < mnemoc_> the problem is what ${ver} is
[19:16] < mnemoc_> for the kernel is is version + extraversion
[19:16] tcr brb
[19:16] -!- tcr [[email protected]] has quit ("brb")
[19:16] < daja77> $root/lib/modules/${ver}${extraver}/build
[19:16] < daja77> $extraver could be empty in usual cases and modified from other packages
[19:17] < clifford> hmmm. aybe adding a simple make-target for printing the current version information and using this would be a solution..
[19:18] < daja77> you mean that $ver gets updated during kernel build?
[19:18] < mnemoc_> that would help rock to know what version kernel is using...
[19:19] < mnemoc_> but what about multiple patching?
[19:19] < daja77> mnemoc_: what patches you used did change the extraversion?
[19:20] < mnemoc_> -rc1-ben10-ctx17-rthal5
[19:20] < mnemoc_> -rc1-ben10-ctx17-rthal5-rock ;) forgot that laste one
[19:20] < daja77> hehe nice
[19:20] < clifford> why not?
[19:20] < daja77> ahem no I like the idea
[19:21] < mnemoc_> daja77: ipvs, [ rsbac, ctx17, grsecurity]
[19:21] < mnemoc_> to do that we should patch the patches to append instead of replace
[19:22] < daja77> that wouldn't be the problem
[19:22] Mike1 np: Linking Park - Crawling
[19:22] < mnemoc_> if the 'cream' of the patches are compatible it would be easy
[19:23] < mnemoc_> cliff: lx_patches for roc's officials and patchfiles for not officials? or lx_patches for compressed and patchfiles for extracted?

[19:24] -!- tcr [[email protected]] has joined #rocklinux
[19:27] < daja77> clifford: apart from would you be interested to have such a target in the official tree
[19:27] < daja77> form that d'oh
[19:28] < clifford> lx_patches for stuf that is downloaded by scripts/Download.
[19:28] < clifford> daja77: sure.
[19:28] < daja77> weee that'll be fun
[19:29] < daja77> the thing is I'm a bit under pressure to get it ready cos we need it for a project
[19:30] < mnemoc> daja77: there are 'tools' linked to that patch? what i do is apply the patch when the 'tools' are selected for building having the package disabled by default.
[19:30] < daja77> mnemoc: I don't get you, explain
[19:31] < mnemoc> daja77: take a look to lvs, vserver and rsbac pacakges from my repos.
[19:31] < mnemoc> to use ... 'rsbac' i need to patch the kernel AND install a couple of tools in the system
[19:32] < mnemoc> i do a package for the tools
[19:32] < mnemoc> and using parse-config i append the patch and it's enabler to linux24*
[19:32] < daja77> ack
[19:33] < mnemoc> but.. if there are no tools it could be the documentatio n;-)
[19:34] < mnemoc> my idea is avoid tagert's dependency... i mean... easyly use it in many targets
[19:34] < mnemoc> or a generic with pkgsel

[19:34] < mnemoc> now i'll go to lunch... cu
[19:34] < daja77> mnemoc: ahem yes it is planned to work like that have to move some config stuff and you could use realtime stuff with every target

[19:38] < clifford> daja77: sound like the best solution (but don't expect the hacked version to be applied in my tree).
[19:39] < daja77> clifford: I don't, just need a realtime enabled distribution ready in 2 weeks ;)

[21:30] < LocalHero> Wow, sorry. LocalHero online :)
[21:30] < LocalHero> Hmm, im trying to design a new homepage for the iso site
[21:31] < LocalHero> What do you think about this
[21:31] < LocalHero> https://beta.hightech.nu
[21:34] < tcr> Hmm
[21:34] < LocalHero> Ups, looked rather strange in mozilla :)
[21:35] < tcr> Huh? I'm using mozilla
[21:37] < LocalHero> Oki, fixed
[21:39] < LocalHero> Heh, the page doesnt contain anything yet but heh, Is the design, better or worse?
[21:41] < blindcoder> hmm... I kind of like it
[21:42] < tcr> Well, if I was you, I'd think about the layout/design of the main rock site -- and once that stands, you should design the iso site appropriately
[21:42] < LocalHero> blindcoder, i got the ide from varius sites
[21:42] < LocalHero> tcr, the iso site is alreade designed as the main site :). https://iso.rocklinux.de
[21:44] < tcr> LocalHero: Yeah, but there are some voices that it should be replaced with another, more intuitive and clearer - whatever - design
[21:44] < LocalHero> tcr.. Hmm, oki, so you think i should wait untill that is seattled? Hmm, oki, that might be a good ide
[21:45] < blindcoder> LocalHero: or contribute your design as an idea for redesign :)
[21:46] < LocalHero> blindcoder, well, i dont think it is that good, and i borrowed some of the ides from distributed.net.. Note, i havent copied anything :-)
[21:46] < tcr> LocalHero: You should rather try to find a new design for the main site (I don't think there at all any webdesigners on list, I personally can't even more than just some html tags)
[21:47] < tcr> Never bothered to "learn" html
[21:47] < LocalHero> tcr, well. Im not good at design but php, mysql powered sites are my speciality :)
[21:48] < LocalHero> I could try to do some fancy scripts for the main site. What is requiered. Is everybody able to do their own pages right now?`
[21:50] < tcr> afaik, clifford doesn't like php/mysql... Currently shell/sed-scripts are used, that're pushed via rsync
[21:51] < LocalHero> tcr, ehh, hmm, oki, doesnt look like a nice thing to me

[21:51] < zer0_o> hi all =)
[21:51] < clifford> "clifford doesn't like php/mysql" is not true. I'm e.g. webmaster and cto of www.diestartseite.at - guess what is driving the page - it's not shell and sed...
[21:52] < LocalHero> Ahh, Somebody wooke up :)
[21:52] < tcr> Not? ;)
[21:53] < LocalHero> The problem with the iso site is that it is to huge. Now in number of html pages but in how much information you can get into a page
[21:54] < tcr> Well, the reason is more or less secondary anyway; and I can remember that you once spoke against it, or does my memory make some bad fool of me?
[21:54] < LocalHero> I also think it lacks of a navigation menu
[21:55] < tcr> LocalHero: Certainly. But you should use trees, rather then just buttons with generic terms
[21:56] < LocalHero> tcr, thats true, but i dont think that would be a problem to add :)
[21:57] < zer0_o> is there a nice nfs browser ?
[21:59] < tcr> zer0_o: Er? every normal file browser should be able to do browse directories that're mounted via nfs
[22:01] < zer0_o> tcr, i ment, something like xsmbrowser for smb protocoll.. but i can mount it by hand.. if it's nessecary ..
[22:04] < blindcoder> g'n8
[22:05] < zer0_o> gn8 blindy
[22:07] < LocalHero> hmm, i wounder how many sublevels a site would have. I think 2 is a good start :).. Check https://beta.hightech.nu
[22:08] < kasc> gn8 all
[22:09] < zer0_o> LocalHero: why is your nick so ? :) sounds you helped with something great in your town ;)

[22:17] < Mike1> re
[22:17] < LocalHero> Mike1 hi :)
[22:17] < Mike1> :)
[22:18] < LocalHero> Mike1, Im redesigning the iso site. What do you think?
[22:19] < zer0_o> tcr, i have a thinking-problem with configuring nfs, if i mount a nfs-voulume from a server and i reboot this server after i mounted, then i have to restart nfs-client, how can i do that automatically? is it the best way, to choose cron for that ? or how would you solve that ?
[22:20] < zer0_o> or anyone ?
[22:20] < zer0_o> hi Mike1
[22:20] < Mike1> hi zer0_o
[22:20] < Mike1> momment please
[22:21] < Mike1> LocalHero: # Development 1.5 Tree
[22:21] < Mike1> The 1.5 tree (maintained by Andreas Huebner <[email protected]>) will soon become the 1.6 stable tree.
[22:21] < Mike1> change that, The 1.5 tree is no longer been maintainer or developed, as stated by Clifford on a mail some days ago
[22:22] < LocalHero> Mike1, uhh? Ahh, now i see. HMm, well i just grabbed some text from the main site to get the idee of how it looked. You shouldnt read the text, just look at the design or somehting
[22:22] < Mike1> the design looks nice :)
[22:23] < clifford> Aerrrm... clifford didn't update the original webpage eighter... (it's on my todo)
[22:23] < mnemoc> LocalHero: try to include an internationalization method ;)
[22:23] < Mike1> mnemoc: you are reading my mind
[22:24] < mnemoc> rocklinux.cr?
[22:24] < Mike1> clifford: btw it is a definitive fact that no php will be allowed for the site?
[22:24] < Mike1> mnemoc: don't think so :), but could be
[22:24] < Mike1> what we need is webpage internationalization
[22:25] < Mike1> the work to get spanish stuff is nearly finished, but we need people contributing on other langs as well
[22:25] < clifford> No - it's somthing I'd prefer. However: the CMS could use PHP. But I'd prefer if the page itself would be static so we can continue using the mirrors.
[22:25] < mnemoc> mirrors can't be updated to support php?
[22:26] < daja77> re
[22:26] < Mike1> clifford: mmm..
[22:26] < Mike1> clifford: anyways would it be ok to have links for other languages?
[22:27] < Mike1> clifford: btw my ROCK i18n is not an official project, what do you think about it?
[22:27] < clifford> mnemoc: That's (1) a security problem and (2) we would also need to mirror the backend (sql database, etc).
[22:27] < mnemoc> would be great to have the same site in multi-language ... include staff in the proper language using something on the querystring
[22:27] < Mike1> i just realized you owe a reply to mail regarding this as well :)
[22:28] < LocalHero> I could add international support if somebody likes it. Hmm, at the moment i dont have any mysql connection on the site so doing rsync would not be a problem aslong as the remote server supports php
[22:28] < mnemoc> clifford: i didn't mean a database... can be mor .. rock's stlyle ... a textfile-database or xml
[22:29] < mnemoc> the needing of a databa IS a restriction for mirrors, but i think php not
[22:31] -!- n00kie [[email protected]] has joined #rocklinux
[22:31] < Mike1> mnemoc: lets just let everyone send mail to clifford in othe rlanguages like spanish, french and italian, even portugues
[22:31] Mike1 grings :))
[22:31] < Mike1> -g
[22:31] < clifford> Mike1: the problem with 18n is not the backend or translating stuff - it's the management tools requirend to keep the translations in sync with the original text.
[22:31] < Mike1> LocalHero: maybe you could come up with some ideas for the new design, i belive that we should have a standard look for all rock reltaed pages
[22:31] < LocalHero> Well, Ehh, hmm, im kind of confused now. Well, i see what i will do to the iso site. I dont know what the timeplan would be to redesign the whole site but maybe i could try to use the iso archive as a beta thing. It would be nice thue to have all the pages looking the same
[22:31] < Mike1> clifford: yes indeed, what we have been doingis keeping a copy of the last translated doc, so we can find the changed stuff on the new one
[22:31] < Mike1> clifford: it very crappy i think but what else can be done?
[22:31] < daja77> mnemoc: what do you need php for?
[22:31] < LocalHero> What does all the mirrors have at a minimum?
[22:32] < n00kie> Holla Mike1 :))
[22:32] < LocalHero> Hmm, i think the project should wait on adding international support until 2.0 is out and realy is stable. If we add to much we will never have a 2.0
[22:32] < Mike1> clifford: international support is something we should be looking forward to, but there is also the fact that not much people is contributing, maybe because not much people knows about it
[22:32] < mnemoc> daja77: can be perl... something that gives dynamisim to the site
[22:32] < Mike1> hola n00kie
[22:33] < n00kie> :)
[22:33] < Mike1> LocalHero: what does internationalization yhave to do with code?
[22:33] < Mike1> LocalHero: it is just about adding documents, and it will not change anything but the size of the rock src thats all
[22:33] < daja77> mnemoc: it doesn't neccessarily have to be dynamic unless you want to have a form or something like that
[22:34] < daja77> forum
[22:34] < mnemoc> daja77: i hate forums :(
[22:34] < LocalHero> Mike1, if we cant keep the main site up to date today (and also the rock docs) do you think we can do it in several languages?
[22:34] daja77 too
[22:35] < daja77> so what would be the dynamic part then?
[22:35] < Mike1> clifford: PJ and i would really like to see internationalization in rock, but in the end you have the last word, please tell me if you want us to continue on this or if we should leave it as is... i wouldn't like to put my effords and others doing something that will not be used.
[22:35] < mnemoc> i was thinking in some more rock-alike... file based and powered by include ;)
[22:35] < Mike1> LocalHero: and what exactly does it have to do with 2.0 release?
[22:36] < LocalHero> Mike1, uhhm, nothing :)
[22:36] < mnemoc> if filebased we could update it's brach by patches
[22:36] < Mike1> LocalHero: with the proper team, this is possible, at least i know that spanish could be synced with english site without any problem
[22:37] < Mike1> but once again the idea of "delegation of tasks" comes to my mind..
[22:37] < mnemoc> one 'new' one file... sorted by date, etc.
[22:37] < clifford> Mike1: I think at the moment there are not many people who would be using it. E.g. my mother language is german - but I would never install or use a Linux with a german locale enabled or read the german translation of a documentation. And I think that 98% of all current ROCK Linux users do share this opinion.
[22:38] < netrunner_> has anyone ever mentioned the idea of a wiki-based project page?
[22:38] < Mike1> clifford: ack, but our comunity could grow if we had internationalization
[22:38] < daja77> netrunner_: you can read my thoughts
[22:39] < mnemoc> clifford: german/austrian people lives with english as a second language... we don't
[22:39] < Mike1> netrunner_: Anders Karlsson and i used to have a wiki page back in the 1.5 days
[22:40] < Mike1> clifford: english is not exactly a well spoken language in central and south america
[22:41] < Mike1> and the same happens in othe rparts of the world, but as i said before, it is all up to you, to the ideas you have for getting mor epeople involved in rock (if this is wanted), and simply its all about your personal vision for rock
[22:41] -!- n00kie [[email protected]] has quit ("Damn, wrong button.")
[22:41] < netrunner_> mike1: why has it been discarded?
[22:41] < Mike1> clifford: if you think the i18n is a waste of time, please say it so, so we abort it and work on other things.
[22:42] < mnemoc> and.. one issue is to use a linux in english or local language.. and a different issue is to read news and documentation in a totaly foreign language
[22:42] < netrunner_> daja77: not quite ;) but I use wikis for some time now and think they're quite useful - and it really works (surprisingly) :)
[22:42] < clifford> So - what do you want to do? Adding gettext ( $"..." ) to the admin scripts and adding locale files as well as translating the documentation and webspace?
[22:43] < Mike1> netrunner_: because 1) it was never official, but part of the porting gnome2 project back in august 2002, 2) we didn't had much time for working on it, and indeed stopped working on the project.
[22:43] < daja77> *argh* I hope not
[22:43] -!- tcr [[email protected]] has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
[22:43] < mnemoc> i don't mean on-the-fly translation... i mean translated by people
[22:44] < LocalHero> mnemoc, wow, yeah, on the fly would be nice. I could donate a supercomputer that does that :)
[22:44] < mnemoc> :|
[22:44] < Mike1> clifford: how do you think that all other projects have pages and docs in several languages, including GNU...?
[22:44] < daja77> anyone ever tried to build 18n kernels, what a crap
[22:44] < LocalHero> Wow, look i added an uggly background to the site :)
[22:44] < mnemoc> bad use of 'on-the-fly'
[22:44] < netrunner_> mike: but the advance of a wiki is that everybody can easily contribute ... to docs or whatever. it would not only be you or few people.
[22:45] < Mike1> LocalHero: donate the supercomputer to me :)
[22:45] < clifford> gentoo doesn't... (btw)
[22:46] < Mike1> netrunner_: perhaps you are right, but yet again we would require to have something like "wiki.rocklinux.org"
[22:46] < zer0_o> i have the following problem: client mounts server nfs-volumues, server reboots, client lost the mount... how can i get automatically the connection back?
[22:46] < Mike1> clifford: how is this done by gentoo?
[22:46] < Mike1> clifford: OT: why are we always comparing to gentoo?
[22:46] < netrunner_> mike1: and then comes the mirror problem - you can hardly mirror a wiki.
[22:47] < clifford> I don't know - others started this "comparing rock with gentoo" thing...
[22:47] < Mike1> netrunner_: exactly, this is why said we would need a "wiki.rocklinux.org" as it won't be possible to have mirrors of this.
[22:47] < Mike1> clifford: i oftenly hear questions regarding gentoo this but rock this, it really annoys me
[22:48] < daja77> but gentoo has nothing in commen with rocklinux
[22:48] < mnemoc> a php/perl microengine to include files is easyly mirroreable
[22:48] < Mike1> daja77: thats why get pissed off.
[22:48] < Mike1> +I
[22:48] < daja77> mnemoc: again what do you need php/perl for?
[22:48] < daja77> ä
[22:49] < mnemoc> to include staff transparently
[22:49] < mnemoc> to generate the main page, etc.
[22:50] < Mike1> netrunner_: even if we had someone willing to have a wiki for rocklinux (perhaps you?) this would have to discussed with Clifford and the others to comeup to a desition, maybe you would like to write an email to the rlml and justify why would we want / need a wiki, to hear others and come up to such desition, clifford?
[22:50] < LocalHero> Hmm, well if you have looked at the "beta" iso site i use a engine script that i parse everything throu. We could add some flags at the top. For example a british and a swedish :).. And then we could extend my html dir by files ending with .se.php for sweden or .de.php and take an md5 sum against the real english one
[22:51] < daja77> mnemoc: sorry this is bullshit, you only need to generate static pages once, if someon e changes things a script adds these changeand it will be fine
[22:51] < LocalHero> And Wahoo, we have an international site that shows the pages that has "swedish" in swedish and if it hasent been translated it shows the english one :)
[22:52] < mnemoc> daja77: now is static and outdated, how can we solve that?
[22:52] < netrunner_> mike1: I am indeed willing to contribute, but first I work to get at least one unit at home to run rock. then I'll probably seen enough to contribute :)
[22:52] < Mike1> LocalHero: it would require more than md5 stuff, it would required "manual" search for changes in order to keep the documents alike
[22:52] < Mike1> netrunner_: so what is stopping you from running rock at home?
[22:52] < daja77> mnemoc: simply adding php doesn't change anything oif nobody is commiting stuff
[22:53] < LocalHero> Mike1, well some fancy scripts that scanned for changes every night and sends mail "diffs" to the "translation team"
[22:53] < mnemoc> daja77: full ack
[22:53] < LocalHero> daja77, well it could change one thing. If it is possible to send things in it would at least be a chance that someone does it :)
[22:54] < netrunner_> mike1: as I realized after 2 angry days: a malfunctional sdram (one of two. now building fine on one since this morning)
[22:54] < mnemoc> daja77: how can we do people commit stuff.. and get included
[22:54] < Mike1> LocalHero: hear yes of course, but first we need the "translation team", and see if Clifford will allow us to move forward witht his.. clifford?
[22:54] < LocalHero> Mike1, ahh, hmm, well if everything is up to him then it is like that :)
[22:55] < netrunner_> mike1: the build I started last month stopped because the hdd broke. :( ... well, I still do not see connections between rock and my defects :)
[22:55] < Mike1> netrunner_: lost of fun building then :)
[22:55] < daja77> mnemoc: only if they get write acces with php or without it is the same deal
[22:55] < Mike1> netrunner_: so it is like the 7 plagues huh?
[22:55] < LocalHero> Mike1, i think i will switch the iso site without waiting for the main site to change. I want to do it this year :)
[22:56] < Mike1> LocalHero: i will help you then on i18n for your site.
[22:56] < LocalHero> Wy do we need so many mirrors by the way. My old p133 would be enough for hosting the whole thing :)
[22:56] < netrunner_> mike1: somehow. but it's not _that_ easy to deter me :)
[22:56] < LocalHero> Mike1, we could ad international things to the iso site :)
[22:56] < Mike1> netrunner_: good :)
[22:57] < Mike1> LocalHero: i would like to see your old p133 taking all the load average that our mirrors take
[22:58] < Mike1> LocalHero: also there is the fact of the package mirrors, your 100mb connection would die very quickly if it was the only one.
[22:58] < LocalHero> Mike1, whats the load avrage then. I hardly have any on the iso site
[22:58] < Mike1> LocalHero: well :)
[22:59] Mike1 wonders where is clifford ...
[22:59] < daja77> hidig from the spanish invasion in his project *g*
[22:59] < LocalHero> Mike1, i dont know what the load is on the main site but html is not a heavy thing to serv. It least if the page is static
[22:59] < mnemoc> :)
[23:00] < Mike1> LocalHero: it would be a matter os discussion :)
[23:00] < Mike1> LocalHero: it would be a matter os discussion :)
[23:01] < daja77> the double mike eh
[23:01] < Mike1> daja77: so whats the big deal about spanish? soon or late he has to learn it anyways :P
[23:01] < daja77> hehehe
[23:01] < LocalHero> Anyway. I didnt come here to start a revolution. I came here to see what you thought about the new iso site? Do you think i should continue?
[23:02] < Mike1> LocalHero: yes.
[23:02] < Mike1> :)
[23:03] < Mike1> LocalHero: you should become a revolutionary :)
[23:04] < mnemoc> LocalHero: sure
[23:06] < LocalHero> Hmm, here is my avrage load by the way

[23:08] < LocalHero> I think almost all of the isos are downloaded from my site and still not heavily loaded
[23:08] < LocalHero> 351 days, ahh, hope it kraches before 356 :)
[23:09] < Mike1> LocalHero: don't bet on it :)
[23:09] < Mike1> LocalHero: anyways thats not my highest uptime :)

[23:24] < LocalHero> mnemoc, well the site has some load already. Well, when i upgrade my computer i will probably replace the iso computer aswell :)
[23:24] < mnemoc> great ;-)
[23:25] < Mike1> LocalHero: will you sponsor me a supercomputer btw? :)
[23:25] < Mike1> or mnemoc :)
[23:25] < mnemoc> Mike1 you have a 3x2400 xeon
[23:25] < mnemoc> i have a p200/64

[23:27] < LocalHero> Mike1 3 processors? I thought they came with 1x 2x or 4x?
[23:28] < Mike1> LocalHero: its an ibm server...
[23:28] < Mike1> LocalHero: and yup it has 3..
[23:28] < LocalHero> Mike1, maybe its time to get some sponsors to the project
[23:28] < LocalHero> Mike1, nice
[23:28] < Mike1> LocalHero: don't ask me i just have remote access, and this is what /proc/cpuinfo says
[23:30] < LocalHero> It would be nice with a quadro opteron :)
[23:31] < LocalHero> Arrgh, maybe i should upgrade the iso site. It takes like looong time to do the stat update :(
[23:32] < Mike1> mm..
