<0> well not quite b33r popcicles
<1> I know, it's too cold...
<2> does anybody know why my mandriva linux doesn't bood from a dvd?
<1> Poltergeist_: you have to enable the Option "Boot from CD" in your BIOS-Settings!
<2> i did
<2> it doesn't work
<2> i just made a dvd with it
<1> is your dvd broken?
<2> i downloaded the version on dvd
<2> nope
<2> no way
<1> you really know?
<2> autorun works
<3> *sigh*
<1> waCHOOOO *sniff*
<1> Poltergeist_: try another cd image and boot from it...



<1> Poltergeist_: to try if the BIOS-Settings are correct!
<2> ok
<2> knoppix live cd works
<4> Hello, I am trying to disable some sensors on SNORT. Any ideas on how I can do that? I am running it with ACID
<3> http://www.snort.org/docs/
<4> been there but they only talk about updating the sensors
<3> technically, Snort *is* the 'sensor', isn't it?
<0> PolarWolf: check the image with md5sum first
<0> ack. s/polarwolf/poltergeist/
<3> yeah, too late ;P
<0> *shrug* his loss
<0> huh. that was scary. too a look at bash script and in 2sec noticed they had a invalid regex
<3> who's 'they'? let me guess... the "web guys"? ;)
<0> Cynic: nah, dvrequant coders
<3> but they still try
<0> I don't think of them as programmers at all
<3> althoughi guess not using bash
<3> no, well, they're not!
<0> you've never seen the crap they do some of it in
<3> heh
<0> I suppose you could do a lot of it in bash
<3> nothing much would surprise me after working with the web team at waikato.ac.nz, although SAD was pretty strict about reviewing everything
<0> oh the 'we hired you to do the job, but we think we know better than you anyway" syndrome
<3> you got it
<0> that's the kind I put obscure colorful metaphores in my comments ;)
<0> ./* just look at this crap they wrote. my left testicle could do better */
<3> heh, echoing nasty html comments could be neat too. <!-- oh jesus christ, more application-generated javascript -->
<0> bwahahaha
<0> <!-- If you're the poos sod that has to decipher this, you're ****ed -->
<3> right, time for dinner.
<0> had a nice Philly cheesesteak myself
<5> i had a philly cheesesteak hot-pocket for lunch :)
<0> this was one of those street vendor ones. aka all for taste and fsck the calories
<0> they don't go for that ooo but butter is fattening for frying in idiots
<5> hah
<6> XyZzY, is that you Trent?
<0> don't know about you, but I'm tired of tasteless, textureless, skinless, flavorless tofu they push off instead of food
<0> Toilet_Duck: Uh, no
<6> Speed Meter
<6> Your bandwidth was clocked at
<6> 7.22 Mbps
<6> Ahhhhh
<4> only
<4> I get 40mbit/s via DSL
<6> Sorry guys
<6> =/
<6> I just got cable today, replaced my DSL which I was getting 760kbit/s downloads
<7> bah, I need to modify one dns server for ~70 domains
<7> their ****ing interface ****s goat nuts
<1> hahahaha
<0> looks lmore and more like the telcos have really screwed the .us public on DSL sppeds
<1> morning Sunblade :)
<0> Sunblade: heh, could probably whip it out with a quick script fster
<7> not sure if a script would help
<7> I think I am better of doing it manual in this case
<8> well thats ****ed up, (left)Ctrl(left)Alt-F1 hangs VNC and all running apps on the root window....



<0> so stop doing that ;)
<8> what multitasking?
<8> and by hangs, I mean deb up to date, on my hardware.
<0> tried to ssh in?
<8> yeah that works, it's just the X console thats locked up till I close the running apps
<8> and I VNC into the box next to me because I have yet to repatch the current kernel on the box for my KVM so I can use my mouse.
<9> awesome. this guy from Sony Japan gave a talk here today on augmented systems.
<9> http://www.csl.sony.co.jp/person/rekimoto/movies/chi99.mpg
<9> you've got to see this video to believe it. advanced human computer interaction
<9> *its worth it*
<9> someone in here was talking about LED based input the other day with me and Liandrin .. well, this is a real eye opener!
<0> how a LD can be used for input as well?
<9> XyZzY, well, a special type - photodiodes
<0> most LED can be also used as inputs as well.
<6> damned tor
<8> XyZzY: how can N and the totient of N along with the relation of the discreate log of N (via 2 pow x mod N) be a compression algorithm?
<0> http://www.merl.com/publications/TR2003-035/
<8> the concept is old
<8> HP printer support over IRDA....how do you think is sent the data and reported the data sent was ok, or toner/paper out?
<9> er, by input - i meant, using them as input arrays for hand-interaction
<0> vIkSiT: this? http://www.hackaday.com/entry/1234000873073550/
<9> exactly
<8> vIkSiT: get me a ((1024bit)x(2^64))x3 qbit computer and I'll be happy
<9> JackStorm, haha, I was at a talk by wolfgang ketterle about 2 months ago - and his team has only isolated 3 qubits till now - with equipment worth 10 million.
<9> and none of them can talk to each other..!
<8> vIkSiT: and yet IBM has a quantum computer than can factor 15 in O(1) using Shore's alg. ...I just need one to run a seq to see what the drifft is over time to test my cl***ical alg
<0> the only downside I see to quantum computing is that theorecticly you would see al th epr0n in the world simultaneously. after that it's all old material :P
<9> haha
<9> true, that
<7> wow one done, 67 to go
<8> XyZzY: what if SETI never found anything because $msg was waveform encoded over time, and we can't detect it because we don't have a O(1) factoring solution with current tech?
<0> well as they have pointed out before. the idea of trying to find other intelligent races is also making the message damn clear to decipher
<8> XyZzY: so in short quantum computing opens up the door to intergaltic porn, spam, and fetishes!
<5> intergalactic porn? schweet
<9> intergalactic porn? eww
<9> lol
<9> how opinions differ.
<0> extra galactic pr0n. the hentai tentacle lover will rejoice
<8> XyZzY: but what if they where xenophobes, or didn't expect others to listen? then they wouldn't
<3> schitzo!
<0> so the order of "if you can't get this far, fsck off club?"
<0> the ET IQ test?
<8> XyZzY: yes the Galactic Fraternal Order of BOFH
<0> who ever said the signal would be limited to one Isolated frequency either
<8> XyZzY: how about this, what if I told you I could compress a DVD9 iso image (lossess) down to 4kbit? but it would take your great-(^2^org DVD size)-grandson to decompress it?
<10> JackStorm: I've heard that posited before, actually.
<8> err s/(^2/^(2/
<8> Viking667: it's cototient fractal compression, with a Y as the leading point.
<10> wwheeeee.
<0> I'd say you have a rather boring video or a campain speech
<8> XyZzY: no new real time P2P network
<8> XyZzY: the cototient(N) is N-(totient(N))..(cototient(N)+1)/2 is x where x^2-N=y^2 where ((p+q)/2) = x and ((p-q)/2) = y, where pq = N
<8> Euler's proof of Fermat for two primes.
<8> err the product of two primes.
<0> what that really means is that there are only 2^4096 unique dvd's possible. given that you could back extrapolate and generate those numbers and decompress them all without ever downloading
<5> okay, you wanna know what I got out of that JackStorm ? This is what I read;
<5> blah blah, blah blah blah, yadda yadda, etc, etc, yadda, blah yadda
<8> Steakk: fast porn downlaod?
<8> XyZzY: (2^4099)-1 is more atoms in the universe.
<11> I am atoms
<8> s/more atoms/more than the number of/
<0> pfft. they just don't dare imagine how big the universe really is
<8> XyZzY: a 2048bit number is 600+ digits long.
<11> what exactly is this debate about?
<0> dunno
<12> wait, AntiVirus for osx ??\
<12> that ****s
<11> what ****s about anti-virus?
<12> the fact that it is needed
<8> blueroo: once again it's about the fact the universe is smaller than you think but can hold more data than we can dream of.
<13> hi all
