<0> g'afternoon
<1> g'evening
<2> gnite
<0> what might be wrong if my clock is straying? noticed right now it's about 50 mins after
<2> gmt is 12:43 now
<0> my local time is GMT+1, but my computer clock is 12:54, anyone who knows why this happens?
<3> Morning
<4> tobbez: is 12:54 just GMT?
<2> its not 1254 yet
<2> its only 1250
<2> so his clock is off time anyways
<0> Super-Fly: now my local time is 1351, but my computer shows 1301
<2> actually, gmt is 1150, cause he is on summertime (i asume)
<4> tobbez: in /etc/config.d/clock ... make sure it's set to local
<4> make sure your timezone has the correct symlink, and if all else fails, use ntp to set your time, http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_NTP
<0> those are correct, as i know the time was correct just a few weeks ago. however i just wanted to know if there was anything i could do about it besides using ntp



<0> the system time is synced to the hw time at startup, right?
<0> or rather, is it possible that it would help if i enabled SYSTOHC in /etc/conf.d/clock?
<0> (i don't think i had a drift before the reboot yesterday)
<5> which dns server would you recomend? I need a proxy that I can add custom records to
<3> BIND is pretty much all I use.
<2> hmmm, how do i update the lspci signatures?
<2> 03:01.2 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd Unknown device 0843 (rev 01)
<2> <--- :(
<6> HI
<7> When booting gentoo, I get "Cleaning /tmp ..." and some stuff.. the computer just hangs here, but I get it booted from a livecd. Is there any way I can perform this clean from the console ? Also, what might be causing it ?
<6> oteren: cd /usr/share/misc ; rm pci.ids ; wget http://pciids.sourceforge.net/pci.ids
<2> thx m8
<2> hah, still unknown device
<2> its my bluetooth, and i cant find any driver for it in the menuconfig
<2> suse's genkernel-kernel got it working, so there is a driver somewhere :p
<6> you dont need lspci to work for any drivers to work
<6> i'd just grep your kernel sources for the pci id
<6> if you dont know which driver supports it
<2> ok
<3> Hm, any of you had many dealings with UPS systems?
<6> we have a few APC UPS's at work
<3> Hm, just wondering if you've ever had them refuse to switch to AC.
<3> Not really sure where to look as far as that goes.
<8> we have a rackmount ups here that runs off 220, and is rated at 10k W i think.
<8> we don't use it, because we don't have a 220 plug.
<3> This is only 2500w
<8> maybe it was 50k W.
<8> i can't physically pick it up.
<3> It's just the wierdest thing, I cold started it... then it ran out of power, it recharges now, but won't use anything but the battery.
<3> Was hoping maybe someone had encountered it before, or something.
<9> hi
<8> they always just turn on here, never really had a problem, except when the generator blew up.
<9> i have dual dedicated 30amp breakers in my room
<3> I was thinking maybe a fuse, but you would think that would prevent charging.
<8> your "room"?
<9> reflux^: did you try the breaker on the box?
<3> Kash: It didn't pop
<9> by box i mean ups
<9> who makes it?
<3> I guess maybe it could have gotten stuck
<3> APC
<9> if its apc just call them they'll ship you another one
<8> ever buy a brand other than APC?
<9> nope..
<10> yes
<10> Libertt
<8> i need a new ups for home, and don't want to spend the money.
<9> their support is > *
<9> katepls: buy one off ebay
<9> get batteries
<3> katepls: I've seen some pretty cheap APC's around lately
<9> ???
<8> Jaded, not sure i've seen libertt in the US.
<9> profit
<10> sec, i typo'd the name
<10> lemmie dig it up
<3> I'm trying not to ship this back, it's so heavy and annoying to ship
<10> thye make industrial generators etc..
<10> far more hardcore than APC



<9> http://buy.apc.com/commerce/storefronts/factoryoutlet/default.aspx?StorefrontCode=apcfo&CountryCode=us&tsk=
<3> APC does some industrial stuff too.
<10> katepls: www.liebert.com aka Emerson
<9> we do buis with emerson thoes ***holes havent paid us
<10> kash: thats standard though
<8> Jaded, yeah, but it's going to cost an arm, and a leg to ship one of those mfers.
<10> kash: you never ever pay on first, or even second request
<9> hehe
<10> kash: pretty standard business practice
<8> oh nm, kash gave me the link.
<6> http://www.thedailywtf.com/Images/200607/win2k_sig_figs.png
<9> hehe
<10> katepls: I paid like 40 uk pounds for one for home, they do everything from desktop -> running a factory
<8> i have 2 at home now
<8> but they're 350s
<10> my only complaint (and it's quite old)
<10> is that their control software requires X
<8> which won't even work with my server.
<10> which is a ****er on a server
<10> so i never bothered with it
<10> at least they know linux exists :)
<10> anyway, who here is in San Francisco ?
<9> http://aries.kashmoney.net/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.ShowItem&g2_itemId=2800

<8> Jaded, would you trust the other brands say tigerdirect sells?
<9> err i want one more
<8> other than APC.
<8> can't think of one off hand.
<9> maybe the belkin one.. maybe
<3> Kash: Heh, I have one of those, it's giving me similar problems
<9> you have a 1500?
<8> "cyberpower", or "tripp light"
<3> Yeah
<8> man, **** those brands.

<7> Anyone familiar with 3ware hw raid controllers ?
<8> omg
<8> oteren, i think the point is that it's difficult to understand.
<8> if at all possible.
<8> "You don't name your db tables with 3 random letters then the last 2 digits of the upcoming year and then an "X"? Weird. I thought that was standard....<"
