Comments:
<0> yeah the k8we
<1> > /var/named is empty
<2> yeh coz our psus are kinda also like brutal industrial units that dont take noise into consideration
<0> yeah that one is quiet :P
<2> some enhance branded psu with like a freaking billion power connectors
<0> plus it's shiny
<0> well that one has a ton also
<2> thats slick. i think i can convince the boss to buy that stuff.
<1> tcpdump is showing all kinds of pakcets going to i.gtld-servers.net and ****
<2> i mean hell we're spending like $4,000 per machine, whats a $200 case.
<1> so it's getting the hints from somewwhere
<3> I kind of like one of Thermaltake's PSes these days ... the one with the modular wiring system.
<3> Only run leads you need.
<0> case also comes in silver
<4> are you supposed to just get a glycerine suppository inside the outer anal sphincter or are you supposed to kinda shove it up in there with your finger a few inches past?
<5> have your dad shove it way up there with his anal probe
<2> Gimp-Cow: for the opterons hsf, are you using the amd retail product or that zalman?
<0> i use the 7000 zlaman
<0> clearance issues
<2> 7700?
<0> 7700 is too big
<0> sockets are too closer together
<2> ah
<2> something like this? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835118119
<0> yup that's it
<2> sweet.
<0> for an unoverclocked opteron
<0> you can also use the AL/CU one
<2> Yeah we definitely dont plan to overclock at all.
<2> wouldnt the pure copper one be better?
<0> somewhat cheaper/lighter
<0> yes
<2> The led lighting is a bit of unneeded glamour but hey, if thats all it comes in.
<0> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835118113
<2> thats strange, the version without the blue LEDs costs more.
<0> volume\
<6> i have a bunch of *.avi movies that i want to convert and burn into svcd. what is the best program to use?
<2> Gimp-Cow: awesome. ive emailed recommendations of all these to our purchaser. hopefully we'll start using em :D Thanks a ton.
<4> gn00b: mplayer
<2> zalman had quite a booth set up at CES too. they're quite the up and growing company it seems.
<0> anytime you strap 3 pounds of copper to a cpu
<0> you can't really fail :P
<2> Damn 3 lbs?
<7> fk - bind 9.4 ?
<2> Their reserator looks pretty cool too. but dont know if i trust the reliability of a waterpump over a fan.
<7> i wonder if they have tweaked thing w/root hints
<0> 1.6 for the 7000b my bad :P
<2> still a big chunk of copper :D
<0> the reserator thing cools worse then a 7000
<1> Pfft 9.2.4
<0> and yeah, it has issues
<2> really. no kidding.
<7> oh 9.2.4
<7> oh thats old stuff
<7> is it linuux ?
<1> CentOS 4
<7> hm
<7> how could you use truss/strace/etc to .. oh ok
<1> it's new enough for my purposes. I don't update for every little buffer overrun. That would be a full time job
<7> ya
<7> no **** :)
<7> if you type "strace" do you get output ?
<1> yeah I forgot about truss
<1> I could try trussing it
<7> ya kill named and truss it when it starts
<7> i can never remember which works in which os - truss/strace/par/etc :)
<1> heheh
<4> dtrace
<1> booting that box up
<1> I need my personal server infrastructure to be agile
<1> I'm building mini appliances in vmware
<1> only thing left on the mail appliance is to get DNS to work. Which it does. .. it just shouldn't be yet :D
<1> hahahah
<2> Heheh. for that case, psu, and two zalman 7000s, were almost at $500. Some people pay less then that for an entire computer :D
<0> =)
<2> but i wouldnt be surprised if we're already paying that much for the chenbro and enhance with our current distributor (which is less then a stellar bargain, but the boss likes em)
<2> see, you cant phone in an order with newegg. he's kinda old fashioned, and wants to chat on the phone to order things. thats likely why he likes this distributor. I'm the opposite. I'd rather order online, then i know that the order will be placed precisely and exactly, and some dork on the other end of the phone wont **** it up
<0> true
<2> theres also this silverstone case that tyan recommends... very slick looking.
<2> whoa. there are two k8wes now. the thunder and a tiger. wtf.
<0> the tiger is the one you want
<0> if you can find one
<2> nah the tiger looks like its the cheaper of the two
<0> you notice serverworks has a board now?
<2> we need BEEF.
<2> u320 scsi
<2> sata doesnt cut it :D
<0> true
<2> the scsi thunder is like a $500 board
<8> Tet Offensive!
<2> ya know, bud select isnt too bad
<9> hmm
<0> it isn't that good either
<0> :P
<2> true.
<10> it isnt worth the extra bucks
<2> I'm a fan of natural light. its cheap, and tastes fine.
<1> well
<1> strace didn't tell me s hit
<1> but
<1> I figured out if you SPECIFY a "." zone
<1> it uses that file instead
<11> Ho Chi Min!
<2> yo quiero taco bell
<11> yo anus.
<10> you like taco bell and natural light?
<10> yikes
<2> Yeah. I'm an all-american kinda guy.
<2> *grunt*
<2> clog them arteries.
<10> well aslong as you enjoy it
<2> hrm. 15 hours elapsed, 20 more to go, for encoding freaking 6 hours of mpeg2 data from divx files. yikes. need. faster. cpu.
<11> YOU GO X0rG.
<2> i wonder how long till nero vision is compiled for winxp x64.
<1> quicker than it's installer
<2> cause, while 32 bit apps run fine in winxp x64, if they arent compiled specifically for x64, they really dont run too hot at all.
<1> cause they're running in WOW :D
<2> yeah. they even seem to run slower
<11> ahaha.
<11> wow. :)
<1> Nostromo: WOW = windows on windows
<1> same way 16 bit apps run under XP32
<2> not TERRIBLY slower, but definitely slower then running in 32-bit windows.
<2> i mean, on an opteron 250 running winxp x64 you can play a bad*** game of Battlefield 2.
<2> so its not too bad
<11> Nice.
<10> zog are these movies you are encoding?
<2> tv shows
<10> ahh ok those are harder to find in dvd format from the start
<2> trying to cram 8 45-min episodes onto a dvd+r dl
<11> Toon Tang.
<2> wind up flashlights rock
<2> i emailed nero asking about the availability of an x64 compilation...
<12> I'm ***uming this bug is legendary, but I was wondering if there was a fix by now; Task Manager doesn't always appear in the system tray and often you have to regularly close/open it to get it to appear. Is there any way to make it appear reliably?
<11> Your mom is legendary.
<13> jez; never seen that happen.
<13> on dozens and dozens of windows systems
<0> i've seen it happen
<0> can't explain it
<0> but i've seen it
<13> now, once on a while I've had various running application icons not show up on the tasklist /startbar after a remote desktop session, then resuming the same session locally at the console. just alt-tabbing through all the apps seems to bring the icons back
<14> Are there any motherboards I can buy with an AGP slot and a PCI-E slot on them that I can put my current hardware into? (P4 3.0GHz CPU etc)
<15> Olin; if there are, it would be a kludge.
<14> Indeed.
<15> and kludges like that tend to be ****y (anyone remember those VLB/PCI bridge boards? yuck!)
<15> no mainstream chipset supports both natively.
<15> keep your current hardware in the current board, when its time for a new system buy a complete new system
<14> Ah I see. OK how about this, is there a motherboard that's PCI-E, SLi ready that I can slot my current P4 into?
<15> that way your old system is still a complete box, worth more used that way.
<14> True.
