<0> ya dd is a very usefull command
<1> how much swap do you have now?
<2> have you turned on dma for your drive? that'll increase the hell out of it's performance
<3> 350mb
<1> using more swap is not the way to make your computer faster, ya know
<4> hi...
<3> i use ubuntu 5.10
<0> how much ram does this system have Sky06
<1> 350 is enough
<3> 128 mb
<1> haha
<1> 350 is more than enough for you
<3> oh ya
<1> want faster? increase ram
<1> an upgrade to 256 would give your PC like a 2nd birth
<2> heh, you need a lot more ram
<2> I'm no longer happy unless I'm pushing a gig
<2> and it's so cheap now
<1> either that or do a software diet.. no KDE, no Koffice, etc..
<2> ha
<1> 128 is fine if you run lightweight soft
<1> bleh
<1> you say its cheap but id need to buy a new PC to have a gig
<5> $ free
<5> total used free shared buffers cached
<5> Mem: 2069044 1972924 96120 0 107692 768948
<1> ok granted nowadays a new PC is affordable
<1> the problem is i'm easily distracted by neat stuff like dual core AMD64 etc..
<1> hehe
<2> hell they've become disposable items, it's more expensive to have them worked on and fixed than it is to buy a new one with many problems you can encounter
<1> i'd like to ***emble it myself though
<1> but it might be cheaper to buy the whole thing already ***embled hm
<2> I have three 900MHz boxen sitting in a storage place now from an old office, but they're not worth ****, and I've already got plenty of boxes here at hom
<2> and all far faster
<1> hm.. where do you live?
<2> northeast louisiana
<2> they all ran ~3-3.5 years, so they're close to their life end anyway, I'd not feel good with someone else inheriting their potential problems
<0> I thought most would run for 10 years.
<1> hm.. you don't like fixing stuff?
<1> like erm... these boxens could find a lot of uses
<2> I had 13 boxen in my office, I was constantly fixing stuff
<1> they'd make a nice server cluster for example
<1> hm.. though its true its you can afford high end stuff...
<1> just get a 4 way opteron instead :/
<6> Malloc42 ?!
<2> simmy !
<2> w***up
<6> It IS you! OMG!
<2> yeah I'm not dead or anything
<6> So how the hell are ya? How's the kids? How's everything?
<2> working quite a bit, kids growing up, one's now 9, the other 5, and I geocache quite a bit
<2> on average I work a week, then I'm off a week, a good schedule
<6> wow... must be nice!
<2> well for my week of work I pretty much disappear from the face of the earth
<6> oh, yuck.
<2> technically 12 hour days, which are really 13, then add drivetime to home, I get to say hello to the family, go to bed, get up and do it again
<2> how are you?
<6> well... lessee... um.... I'm getting ready to spend an ***load of money.
<2> on
<6> I'm 3 weeks away from closing on a condo!
<2> sweet
<6> WOOOOHOOOOO!
<2> whereat?
<7> how can i read mail in /var/spool/mail?
<2> heh
<0> oh well simmy something solid, to defer deflation
<2> mutt / pine
<6> sterling heights (20 miles north of detroit)
<2> close to work?
<6> reasonably close. It'll still be 20-30 minutes by car. Nothing new for me.
<6> it's 1/4 mile from an all-day daycare in a great school district. It's close to lots of bike paths (yay, bikes!). Close to a beach. Close to parks. really nice neighborhood.
<6> http://www.tehlunix.org/g1/Jamestown
<2> that's not bad at all, I'm ~25 minutes from one place I work, and 16 from the usual place I work now
<0> Hm bikers
<6> (temporary link while I do work on my gallery)
<8> Would anyone be willing to help me get my wireless card working with redhat? Im really lost
<0> what version of redhat is it
<6> RH 7.3! DUH!
<2> are you buying it that unfinished?
<2> i.e. you're the first in it?
<0> New construction?
<6> nah... they were built in '73. The current owner is a contractor and is doing _LOTS_ of work in it (even now) to fix it up pre-sale.
<2> well that's nice
<8> zyxcba: Its version 9
<6> those pics are 2 weeks old. I was in it last week. Looks LOTS nicer. It's already appraised for 20K more than I'm paying for it!
<2> simmy: how old are the kids now? (I loose track)
<6> I'm putting new floors throughout, painting, and going nuts!
<6> Malloc42 : jsut one. He's 5 now. STarts kindergarden in the fall. Tomorrow, a week after that, he starts high school. A month from now, he'll be getting married and having kids.
<6> Heh!
<2> ohhh, T-Ball age!!!
<6> yeah.
<2> ours are starting up soccer this week, they plan the soccer league here around the local baseball league so they don't overlap
<0> "iwconfig", used to setup wireless network name, encryption, transmission rate along with misc. features.
<0> "iwlist", Displays information about existing wireless devices such a speed or frequency.
<0> "iwpriv", Sets optional features such as roaming.
<0> "iwspay" displays statistics of wireless nodes.
<6> That's nice to know.
<6> wonder if our local sports groups are nice enough to do that, too.
<2> baseball is bigger here than soccer, if they overlapped, soccer wouldn't be able to finish the season
<2> funny since I grew up in dallas, and soccer was huge 30 years ago, very new here though
<6> I have no idea what (if any) evan would like more. Right now, he's all gung-ho about cycling. Wonder where he gets that from. ;)
<2> I need to get my fat *** out and bike a little, as it is I geocache to get out
<2> one of my best friends is ranked in texas cycling
<6> they make handlebar mounts for GPS units. Go for it! :)
<6> i dream about doing some real cycling like that. For now (and until Evan's a little order and til I can buy a NICE bike) I'll just have to settle for more touring-style cycling.
<2> I went over for my other best friend's wedding this fall, and my cycling friend had done a quick 50 miles that morning before coming over for the wedding
<6> sounds like my kind of guy!
<6> I've been riding to/from work. It's about 30 miles round trip.
<6> It's really cool when the weather's nice, I can go for a ride before/after work, have dinner, then go out riding for another 20-40 miles with Evan.
<2> heh, heh says his best ally is his age, at 39 he's in a different cl*** than the young low 20's wipper snappers
<6> He's got a trai-a-bike that I haul him around on.
<6> Malloc42 : I"m HOPING to be in that cl*** when i'm pushin 40.
<9> hi, anyone know what kind of files start with "BZh91AY&SY" ?
<2> temp files
<2> your browser prolly drops a jillion of them
<2> simmy: does mulder still drop in?
<9> Malloc42, thank you very much!~
<2> jawbin: I can't promise that's what your file is, I can say that I've run across weird named files and finally figured out they were temp files, using a random naming system
<6> Malloc42 : All the time. He's often #xlnx on Freenode as well.
<2> which usually, (but not always) means your browser
<2> simmy: cool, figured I'd bump into you or him tonight
<6> yeah... someone's always around.
<9> Malloc42, now i know it's a .bz2 file, sorry, i mean the content, not the name :)
<2> hell, I havn't been on my own irc server much lately, when I'm busy I'm busy, and when I'm not I sleep quite a bit, or am otherwise occupied
<2> I have to rely on pez or lith emailing me if my server goes down (it hasn't so far), as I'd generally not know as quickly as I would have a few years ago
<10> Feb 16 06:54:57 fenix kernel: inode_doinit_with_dentry: context_to_sid(unlabeled) returned 22 for dev=md2 ino=14025562
<10> is this related to SElinux ?
<2> sounds like it
<10> Malloc42 hmm i don't really understand it... what does it say ? huh
<10> i got flooded with such "errors"
<2> I used to follow selinux very closely, but don't anymore, the 'context' part is why I said it sounds like it
<10> aha
<10> well i just disabled this damn selinux... don't have time to set it up to work with all the **** on my serv
<10> lol
<2> initially selinux runs in a mode where all it does is report
<2> once you've got it tuned you 'turn it on'
<2> so that you don't suddenly make your system unusable
<2> so it may not have been blocking anything, only complaining profusely
<10> yes it was in permissive mode but i cannot analyse my log files if he floods it with like 10000+ lines of: kernel: inode_doinit_with_dentry: context_to_sid(unlabeled) returned 22 for dev=md2
<10> i disabled the reporting. i'll fix it some day.
<10> Malloc42 you have any experience with raid ?
<2> I've got a win box that has a two drive raid system, but don't use it otherwise
<10> aha. okay. np.
<10> i have a problem that the system hangs and says: SCSI device or resource busy
<10> which is currently really bugging me. i disabled selinux, fixed mdadm (for raid checking) and smartd... to work fine. i disabled checking of sda and sdb disks in smartd
<2> with such a generic message, it'd be over my head
<10> i have no other solution... yet i can't really find the root of the problem... the guy in data center said that appears on my server's screen... yet i have no clue why this happens...
<10> well it works fine now
