<0> Lion-O: hey :)
<0> CHEEKSY!
<1> kosmo: how's life treating you ?
<0> Lion-O: not too bad.
<0> skyflakes: **** OFF
<0> Lion-O: the weather this weekend was pretty yishy.
<1> kosmo: aye.. Was rather crap over here too, the best was past saturday. Oh well, at least I'm enjoying a nice day off.
<0> Lion-O: whee!
<0> thats tomorrow for me!
<1> hmmm :-)
<0> Lion-O: I had to work on my truck on saturday .... I had a fuel line pop.
<0> I did manage to get the lawn mowed, and a bunch of wine and beer were drank as well :)
<2> hehe
<1> hehe :)
<0> mmm... b33r
<3> kosmo: fuel lines popping is a suboptimal experience
<0> whyzzyrd: yeah, it pretty much ****ed.
<0> whyzzyrd: insult to injury was that it was the return line that was leaking, so my truck ran just fine as it tried to pump the fuel tank dry
<3> kosmo: owchie. What made you notice?
<0> whyzzyrd: I wasnt able to repair it at home, so I called my buddy and we did it up at the shop on Saturday night, and drank a bunch of beer :)
<0> whyzzyrd: its a diesel truck, so the odor.
<3> ahh, diesel's not so dangerous either
<0> whyzzyrd: thank god it was a diesel... if it would have been gasoline, I would have been up in flames.
<3> yeah, that's pretty ****y. Presumably the fuel lines are copper though?
<0> whyzzyrd: no way ...
<0> whyzzyrd: actually, this is the pisser
<0> whyzzyrd: the place that it broke was 1: repaired before and 2: at a transition from steel line to rubber
<0> whyzzyrd: the rubber line (high pressure fuel injection hose) failed BETWEEN the plies of rubber/cord
<3> kosmo: ick
<0> whyzzyrd: so the line swelled up like a balloon
<0> whyzzyrd: the really sad part is? my buddy did the previous repair when the previous owner had the truck. They must have been out of their normal brand of hose, because the hose that was in there was not what they normally use... and it failed ! :(
<3> kosmo: that does **** pretty hard.
<0> whyzzyrd: he was disappointed to say the least.
<0> whyzzyrd: he is 1/2 owner of a small independent shop, and they REALLY take pride in their work. they are not the normal schiesters.
<0> they are THE busiest independent shop in town, and they only have three bays/mechanics
<2> wtf
<4> hello all
<4> I have a quick question about kernel programming
<2> the gas pedal has hung itself up on a bus ...
<3> kosmo: the guy that services my car is in that position. Him and his Dad own the place, and he keeps 3 mechanics, including himself.
<4> anyone knows how can I get informtion about the process-user that is calling an specific syscall?
<3> kosmo: He's a real auto-electronics specialist.
<4> I mean, I have a syscall handler and I need to get info about user-process that calls it
<5> anyone here to help ?
<3> aspx: this isn't a help channel. Try #linuxhelp
<2> they are bringing the bus out from the center and then turn it onto a highway where they intend to just shut off the engine
<2> one police car in front and one behind the bus
<2> they cleared a roundabout in front of it...
<2> now they are breaking the traffic behind, attempting an emergency shutdown
<2> hehe
<2> went ok
<6> K_F...let the bus explode :)
<2> nah, they stopped
<2> smoke coming from the bus
<3> heh
<2> breaks are smoking..
<3> they have to be careful with that.
<2> yeah, fire dept is on route
<3> You can get the tyres hot enough to catch fire with bus brakes, if you're under power.
<3> The engines in busses can produce a good few horsepower.
<7> i'v woud used some extra 'will' to stop that bus,like 'concrete will' ;)
<7> see u!
<2> whyzzyrd: yeah, and it has driven now for a couple of minutes... think if you push the trottle all down
<2> and then break it
<2> and try to keep a stable speed
<3> brake
<2> uhm, yeah
<3> If I don't mention it, you'll never pick up on it.
<2> indeed
<2> thank you :)
<8> heh
<9> hello could anyone gimme the complete command to change ones mac- address ? it's smth with ifconfig eth0 inet hw "mac"
<3> axius: why do you want to change your mac?
<10> axius: you could experiment. I'm fairly certain you won't blow anything up
<9> :P, i've got 2 internet connections at home and 5 computers.. and since my router is away and i have insufficient nics...
<9> i need to install suse using one of those internet connections
<1> usually you do this using your nic's setup utilities.
<9> well i'd like to add this command as a boot option, is that possibile ?
<10> the US seems to be fond of marrying your internet connection to a specific MAC though
<10> I ***ume that is the case here
<1> axius: doubtfull and also /very/ stupid.
<9> Lion-O: can you help me with that command ?
<1> axius: I already did.
<1> <1> usually you do this using your nic's setup utilities.
<9> what utilities ? since i'm during the suse instalation ?
<1> axius: and now you see why its so important to spend a little time on preperation.
<1> axius: in short; I don't think you can do this on Linux, use whatever tools and options you have for your nic. It is also something which heavily varies per nic, some support this and other don't.
<3> Lion-O: you can set a mac, but it doesn't stick over a reboot.
<1> he did it! ;-)
<1> whyzzyrd: it depends on the nic and the driver. Not all hardware will allow this.
<3> Lion-O: that is indeed true.
<11> well... Usually its the OS reporting the MAC anyway, so hardware support is a moot case in 99% of the cases
<12> Most places in the US marry the service with the MAC address of the modem
<12> Not the ethernet nic
<11> ah
<12> Cox, Time Warner (aka BrightHouse Networks aka RoadRunner aka Earthlink aka AOL Broadband) all use the modem's MAC address
<10> reality: most places here use bridging and don't care about MACs. Some providers won't guarantee auto-provisioning though unless you use their equipment
<12> wlfshmn: The only place here that I know uses bridging is BellSouth DSL
<13> reality, sprint supports bridging for DSL (allows ya to plug in linksys wireless routers/switches)
<14> hi all
<14> i need some help with my kde please
<1> masterwix: tries pressing F1 yet?
<14> :) yep
<0> masterwix: it puts the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose.
<12> masterwix: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
<14> i need hel in spanish :)
<12> #linuxlatino
<0> masterwix: wrong channel.
<15> "I have another IP address and I want to point it to www.bootfare.net/exchange can you advise the procedure for this please." <-- geezus our users ****
<14> thaks
<2> Falchion: not entirely sure what that means..
<15> K_F: Exactly.
<15> He wants to point an IP to a URL. heh
<2> they want http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/ to redirect to http://www.bootfare.net/exchange ?
<2> in which case it sounds like a mod_rewrite job
<15> Yep. At least, that's what they say.
<15> K_F: I'm willing to wager that what he said is NOT what he means.
<2> hehe
<15> In fac t, I'd wager my paycheck on it :)
<1> wtf, HEY, why are you sharing my questions in the channel? WHOOPS, I revealed myself :P
<10> Falchion: what the heck would we want with an extra 20$? ;)
<2> Falchion: can $client mix up domain and IP?
<2> Falchion: as in they have an unused domain and want to forward it?
<15> wlfshmn: Har har har
<15> K_F: Can they? Of course. Is that what he's done? IO have no idea. I wrote back saying, in a nutshell, "You aren't making sense. Explain WTF you are ac tually trying to do so I can better help your sorry ***"
<2> hehe
<15> wlfshmn: Almost went out to buy a gaming pc this weekend. Neighbor talked me into shopping for crap for my apartment insteade. So instead of killing people in a cool game, I get to ****ing water my new plants. Sigh.
<10> Falchion: I hate having to formulate diplomatic responses to morons ;)
<15> wlfshmn: Me too. I'm not very good at it.
<2> I'm often perceived as somewhat blunt in that context.
<2> or just arrogant.
<10> K_F: yeah. I have the same problem, my personally shows through in my emails.
<15> K_F: I'm subtle enough that I haven't gotten spoken to by my boss. much. :)
<2> Falchion: I couldn't handle that, so I'm planning on becoming the boss in the first place :P
<10> Falchion: You also work for a comapny that doesn't mind losing the occational stupid client, unless they have extreamly deep pockets ;)
<10> Falchion: the free services don't have access to you anyway, do they?
<2> wlfshmn: no company really afford loosing clients, due to the cost of getting new ones
<2> except my personal company, I've kicked some stupid users head first there..
<10> K_F: Our logistics division has almost zero cost in aquiring customers, for example
<2> started it as a hobby and I won't get bored in the process
<15> wlfshmn: No, free people DO have access via email, just not by phone.
<10> K_F: Our national post-office recommend their software first and foremost
<2> wlfshmn: I presume you don't have consumer clients, but business ones?
<2> b2b operates quite differently, agreed
<10> K_F: yes, buisness clients, but another company does the marketing and sales job for free more or less ,)
<2> hehe
