<0> latency
<0> right?
<1> ninjaz2, what do you say worth downloading it or i just get few things about it from you only?
<2> Yes, which is not the same thing as speed.
<3> depends on your bandwidth satsonic
<0> well as I said I'm not native English speaker
<3> worth watching? sure
<0> maybe I didnt say it good
<2> Probably
<1> Kevin`, thats what i am bit in stand by mode due to my bandwidth ;)
<4> hehe
<2> There's plenty of native english speakers who don't know the difference between speed and latency anyway
<0> I know it from this time
<0> thanks
<4> there are plenty of native english speakers who don't know what latency is, in fact. ;)
<2> ohahaha



<2> I see the guy maintaining the DRI howto on linuxquestions has now run face first into why I can't stand ATI.
<2> He had an accident, reinstalled everything, and now for no reason at all gets twice the frame rate as before
<2> I absolutely despise how that stuff will stubbornly refuse to work properly, and then for no reason at all, starts working like it's supposed to after you've done something completely unrelated, like read your email.
<4> Dagmar: was it using binary drivers?
<2> I think he is
<4> only the free stuff works with my card. :-)
<2> My notebook started using DRI properly literally after I went into the coffee house to get a refill on my coffee
<5> i've strange kernel problems, some of my daemons won't run, like acpid,dcop and gpm - they exit with status ending of 'socket () Address Family Not Supported By Protocol'
<2> I was looking at a frame rate of about 800, got a fresh cup, came back to see it doing 1400fps
<6> i lost my blog - can't find it
<4> good consumer, extra fps for you!
<2> HeavenWarrior: You didn't happen to disable unix domain sockets in your kernel did you?
<4> Quiznos: blogs are normally lame, anyway, so you can see this as a positive step in life.
<2> ninjaz2: Considering I rescued it from a trash can, I don't know how well the word "consumer" applies.
<5> Dagmar yep i do
<0> <4> only the free stuff works with my card. :-)
<0> which ATI?
<5> i've disabled them
<2> HeavenWarrior: YOU NEED THOSE
<4> Gyuszk: Radeon 7500
<6> ninjaz2 nop, it had a funny start.
<5> Dagmar ok thanks
<2> lol
<0> that is too old
<2> I was looking at that thinking of what the common denominator and thinking "Surely he didn't disable that"
<4> Gyuszk: it's not too old if it still does its job well :P
<2> HeavenWarrior: Good thing you can pop support back in as a module
<0> I have a relatively new one (but very slow), and it works with the binary driver, but its speed is very slow
<4> Dagmar: I was thinking more along the lines of binary-only drivers being tied into corporate marketing partnerships.
<2> HeavenWarrior: In the future, just spam as much of the networking section of the menuconfig with 'm' for modules as you can
<1> ninjaz2, was that movie based on linus trovald or somthing...?
<2> It'll only load the stuff it needs, as you try to use it.
<4> Like, buy a latt at starbucks and get 1000 extra fps for 24 hours!
<5> Dagmar thanks
<2> ninjaz2: Nah, the coffee house i go to is so indie they decaffienate their own beans
<4> satsonic: Linus was in the film yeah, but there were also others, like Alan Cox, RMS, ESR, Ted T'so, etc.
<1> ninjaz2, thanks for the info
<5> one other questions if i've udev installed, am i needed devfs
<3> some of it was in a language I don't understand
<0> <4> satsonic: Linus was in the film yeah, but there were also others, like Alan Cox, RMS, ESR, Ted T'so, etc. <-- which movie?
<1> ninjaz2, what is the moral of the story? ( in video )
<4> they had a little face-off between RMS and ESR by taking cuts from interviews with each ;)
<0> whats the title?
<4> satsonic: It's a documentary
<4> Gyuszk: The Code: Linux
<0> thanks
<0> I'll check it
<2> You look at ESR and you think "This is a man who has recently been struck repeated blows to the face"
<2> ...then he talks and you think "Why did they stop?"
<4> hehehe
<2> He gets SO CLOSE to being really useful
<2> I think he's just pushing for too much with GPL3
<4> he was actually useful during about an 18 month window
<1> :)
<1> RMS and ESR? what is that?
<2> Richard Stallman, and Eric S. Raymond
<4> RMS is Richard M Stallman, the founder of GNU
<1> oh ok
<4> ESR is...with those guys!
<2> ESR being the guy who wrote GPL 2.0 I *think*(
<4> nah



<4> Dagmar: that was RMS and his friends ;)
<4> ESR was the guy who started the term Open Source
<2> They're both pretty public advocates for open source and Linux in general, but ESR tends to come off as an extremist in the worst way at times
<2> I wouldn't trade him for Theo tho
<4> RMS is an advocate of Free Software, though.
<4> There is a cartoon about it
<1> so i will download and watch it sometime
<2> BTW if any of you read Skeptical Inquirer, I'd like to apologize in advance for not killing Meienel when we had a chance
<4> http://geekz.co.uk/lovesraymond/archive/show-them-the-code
<2> Someone transcribed the article they just published so I could read it
<1> nice one
<7> hi all
<7> I'd like to know if #!/sbin/runscript of gentoo is a standard
<7> someone know? Cause i'm coding a program and I'd like to add init scripts too
<4> aLeSD: it's not here on my mandriva box
<8> aLeSD: probably best to ask #gentoo if you already haven't
<7> sure ... thanks
<3> I do not have /sbin/runscript
<3> what does that do
<3> (oh, and your answer)
<2> Heh. I think my boss' boss frequently forgets that we have a night shift and a day shift now
<2> I go off shift in an hour, and he calls to tell me that if I need him he won't be available until 11 (like, five and something hours from now)
<4> http://geekz.co.uk/lovesraymond/archive/microsoft-censorship is pretty good too
<2> I'm a bigger fan of Penny Arcade, personally.
<2> They're very clearly implying that Macs and Mac Users are gay today
<1> who is that?
<2> http://www.penny-arcade.com
<2> You must not play many video games to not know about Tycho and Gabe
<2> If you're the kind of gamer who longs for a controller you can put English on as well as *bite* when necessary, Penny Arcade is the webcomic for you
<1> hmm :)
<2> OMG heheh
<2> http://www.penny-arcade.com/2006/03/01 <-- Smedley didn't like the comment Gabe made about them hiring one of the big artists from DC comics to make an MMORPG
<2> Apparently he sent them about 1200 donuts.
<9> bootloader is lost due to windows installation, need to install grub back as boot loader.....How do I do that... I have live cd of knoppix, i have booted with that...now how do i load grub into mbr
<10> Is there any way to make it so that when I "ls" in any directory, RedHat will allow me to page-up and page-down through my files?
<10> Or will I need to go to a different distribution like slackware?
<11> ls | less
<12> birdfish, ls | less or ls|more
<10> Okay, thanks :D
<10> One more quick question.
<10> Does this sort of thing work with programs like up2date?
<10> Because that list also starts with #9
<10> :/
<11> it'll work to anything that prints consecutive text to stdout, rather than using curses full screen cursor movement calls.
<11> what is #9 ?
<10> Just choice #9 in the list
<11> try it and see. if it requires keyboard input during the program run, it won't work. but you can use shift-pgup and shift-pgdn to scroll back and forth (generally)
<13> ls
<13> I want to make wget -r -nd -N do for every file it replaces to bring it up to the timestamp of the current local machine it is executed... not from the host. How can I do this?
<10> infi: shift-pgup/pgdn was exactly what I was looking for :D
<10> Thanks dude!
<14> morning
<14> how do i add a range of ip to /usr/local/example/ignore.hosts
<14> for example . say 127.0.0.1 to 127.0.1.96
<8> consult the documentation for whatever that is (I don't recognize it)
<14> i need to add an range of ip to allow list
<14> also range of ip to ignore.host , on my brute force detecter to Prevent locking myself out!
<15> does anyone have knowledge about this problem? dynamic-link.h:57: elf_get_dynamic_info: ***ertion `! "bad dynamic tag"' failed. -- google only gives me questions on mailing lists, no really helpful answers. the error occurs using an old binary program
<15> it was compiled with glibc-2.1 apparently
<8> if you don't have the source you're probably hosed, but a programming channel for whatever it was written in might know better than me
<15> FieldySnuts: i can only guess that it uses c/c++. it's the loki games linux version of "Alpha Centauri"
<15> as it must have worked sometime on old linux system i though it should be possible to make it run on recent systems too
<8> in that case you'd end up talking to loki, since if it's a closed game, open source channels won't be able to help since they didn't write it
<15> loki is no more :(
<8> ah. out of luck then, thus the fallbacks of closed software; when whoever made it goes out of business, nobody can support it. sorry dude.
<15> yes that's sad. i just though it'd be worth asking as google brings up also open source programs throwing this error like mysql
<15> with exactly the same error message
<16> xororand: go to the tux games main page then go to the linux gaming FAQ link
<16> that has most answers for running games that are having problems
<15> lgp-michael: thanks, i'll take a look at this site
<16> url www.tuxgames.com {:-)
<15> lol "Q: Help! I'm addicted to Andrew Henderson's Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, what can I do?"
