| 12:05.49 | macquetero-ppc | I really don't know what to do ins order to get my xserve and window manager up |
| 12:05.53 | macquetero-ppc | :$ |
| 12:07.05 | macquetero-ppc | I need some help here :D |
| 12:22.42 | ekl | never tried an xserve, sorry |
| 12:23.03 | ekl | what's the problem ? |
| 12:24.48 | macquetero-ppc | it's an imac g3. I think that I don't know config the xsever |
| 12:25.34 | macquetero-ppc | of course debian it's installed but just in text bases |
| 12:27.01 | macquetero-ppc | do you have a machine like mine? |
| 12:41.31 | ekl | ook wait :D xserve -> apple xserve (a rack server) |
| 12:42.31 | ekl | i never installed debian o imac, but you should try to identify your mac and find an howto |
| 12:42.55 | ekl | i mean, the g3 powerbook is commonly known as clamshell |
| 12:43.20 | ekl | if you try to google clamshell + debian you'll find a lot of howtos |
| 12:45.21 | ekl | on os9 or osx, whatever, check your hardware (video card etc) so you can set the right driver.. and that's almost all :P |
| 12:51.18 | Bor_Ed | try http://pingswept.org/files/xorgconf-for-xubuntu-on-g3-imac.txt one... just need to change keyboard to your locale |

| 17:45.43 | aleray | hi, is it safe to share an hfs plus partition with osx ? |
| 17:45.56 | aleray | do I have to mount it noatime ? |
| 18:08.25 | simonrvn | should be ok, but it shouldn't be journaled |
| 18:08.44 | simonrvn | it'll get corrupted if it journaled |
| 18:25.42 | aleray | simonrvn, thanks. |
| 18:26.14 | aleray | simonrvn, should I flag it nodiratime as well? |
| 18:26.56 | simonrvn | i don't see why, but if you think you should, do it. |
| 18:29.24 | aleray | simonrvn, sorry I didn't read the use of nodirtime, and you're right, it makes no sense! |
| 18:29.37 | aleray | (it just sounds similar to noatime) |
| 18:33.58 | simonrvn | :) |

| 18:35.39 | simonrvn | me too ;) |

| 18:35.58 | aleray | I used to use gentoo, which was good for learning, but such a pain to maintain :-P |
| 18:36.56 | simonrvn | i heard from some ex-users about the issues with it being not maintained for a while too. what a let-down for the users. |
| 18:37.46 | simonrvn | something about the community having to make a release cd up to date? |
| 18:38.04 | simonrvn | not remembering exactly |
| 18:38.20 | aleray | I can't tell at the time I was using it it was still maintained. |
| 18:38.31 | aleray | like a year and a half ago |
| 18:38.37 | simonrvn | ah ok |
| 18:38.58 | aleray | it was just time consuming to maintain my own machines |
| 18:39.32 | simonrvn | yeh. i do that for a select few packages, and that's a chore. |
