| 13:39.23 | Clyphox|work | Ohh.. |
| 13:39.37 | Clyphox|work | Anyone know if/how/where I can get and run Solaris on x86? |
| 13:39.44 | stephen | i've had like 3 drives die in a couple of years |
| 13:40.04 | stephen | it sucks |
| 13:40.16 | Clyphox|work | I've had many die this YEAR |
| 13:40.33 | dank_work | www.sun.com |
| 13:40.43 | dank_work | You can get it, but it'll cost you about $20 |
| 13:40.56 | dank_work | Alternatively, I have a copy of Solaris8 at home (which I haven't yet tried) |
| 13:40.58 | Clyphox|work | They stoped supporting it afaik.. |
| 13:41.13 | Clyphox|work | That would be nice... much cheaper too heheh |
| 13:41.37 | Clyphox|work | Alas only x86 crud in my house :( (barr my delapidated macs) |
| 13:41.50 | dank_work | Sure. |
| 13:41.56 | dank_work | Maybe I should try if it works first... |
| 13:41.58 | Clyphox|work | I nearly won a ss20 on ebay once.. :(( |
| 13:42.22 | Clyphox|work | I actually downloaded the demo over a year ago but never found time to try it out.. |
| 13:42.31 | stephen | sun i think got bored of people bitching to them about the demise of x86 solaris, so I think solaris 9 for x86 does exist, somewhere |
| 13:42.40 | Clyphox|work | Just want to put it under my belt.. know I won't like it like NetBSD |
| 13:43.02 | dank_work | stephen: It does. And available for download or something |
| 13:43.30 | stephen | Clyphox|work: me and a mate got 4 SS10s from a 'remarketing' firm in south oxfordshire, they had no idea what they were really |
| 13:43.56 | stephen | including keyboards, mice, and speakers, all for 40 notes, not bad |
| 13:44.32 | Clyphox|work | Selling any? |
| 13:44.52 | Clyphox|work | Use it at home as a firewall/webserver :) |
| 13:54.57 | dank_work | Not working any more? |
| 13:55.04 | Clyphox | no.. |
| 13:55.05 | Clyphox | I feel more civilzed now.. |
| 13:55.09 | Clyphox | thats all :) |
| 13:55.10 | dank_work | :) |
| 13:55.37 | dank_work | Whee! Alter.Net is fucked up YET AGAIN! |
| 13:55.48 | stephen | Clyphox: nah, just to mess around with, there are probably loads in similar firms if you have the time to look at their websites + ebay |
| 13:55.48 | dank_work | What completely incompetent muppets run that place? |
| 14:02.15 | Clyphox | hmmm.. pizza.. |

| 14:18.22 | dank_work | Do you have much experience of Solaris? |
| 14:18.22 | dpash | helps to be direct |
| 14:18.29 | dpash | rather than shifty nod-nod-wink-wink stylee |

| 14:23.21 | Clyphox | I have 4 OS'es on my laptop.. working on getting more one.. and UML :-) |

| 14:23.43 | dank_work | dpash: You mean, Darwin/x86? |
| 14:23.55 | dpash | thats the one. I couldn;t remember the name of the kernel |
| 14:24.07 | dank_work | OS X is the complete Darwin+Aqua |
| 14:24.12 | dank_work | Okay. Who wants OpenStep, then? |
| 14:24.16 | dank_work | (NeXT for i386) |

| 14:25.50 | dpash | dank_work: that doesn't help as I have some fat single tablet things |
| 14:25.54 | dank_work | Ah |

| 15:46.20 | dpash | sadly we have email pop boxes with them |
| 15:46.20 | dpash | hopefully they will be going soon |
| 15:46.24 | dpash | but we are getting a sat service in this week |
| 15:46.30 | dpash | so all should be well |
| 15:46.51 | dank_work | Good luck... |
| 15:47.08 | dpash | nah we know this setup works |
| 15:47.19 | dpash | we tested it for 3 weeks over christmas |
| 15:47.33 | dpash | we get 600ms latency pretty much all the time |
| 15:47.53 | dpash | unlike the BT service which could go up to 16000ms at times |
| 15:48.04 | dpash | yes that figure is correct (16seconds) |
| 15:48.13 | dank_work | eek |
| 15:49.18 | dpash | you can say that again |
| 15:49.31 | dank_work | eek |
| 15:49.37 | dpash | and the bandwidth was so bad, my irc connection would die for no reason with no other traffic in the middle of the night |
| 15:49.45 | dpash | you can say that again |
| 15:50.06 | dank_work | I kept getting disconnected every 5 minutes |
| 15:50.25 | dank_work | Sometimes it'd take me about 6 or 7 goes to reconnect |
| 15:50.33 | dpash | dank_work: you have BT sat service? |
| 15:50.33 | dpash | s/have/had/ |
| 15:50.42 | dank_work | No. I had their modem (dis)service |
| 15:51.03 | dpash | that is what we are using atm |
| 15:51.27 | dpash | last week was crap, but I replaced the modem over the weekend and we have had much better service |

| 15:52.33 | dpash | that isn;t the full name iirc |
| 15:52.37 | dpash | but it ends in tux |
| 15:52.51 | HuhnWRITE | it's called Hintertux, but the valley is called Tuxertal (valley of Tux) |
| 15:53.46 | dpash | it does look cool. last week they had about 6-8 interested people |

| 15:56.26 | HuhnWRITE | murb: depends.. I've managed to arrange cheap accomodation, of course the skiing pass and the travel costs.. |

| 16:55.10 | Clyphox | dank_work, WHERE DID YOU GET IT! |
| 16:55.16 | dank_work | What? The PDP? |
| 16:55.17 | Clyphox | er.. don't mean to shout |
| 16:55.24 | Clyphox | yes.. |
| 16:55.31 | dank_work | Person I met on IRC. |
| 16:55.35 | Clyphox | Wow! |
| 16:55.40 | dank_work | He said he had a PDP, and I asked if I could have it |
| 16:55.42 | dank_work | (jokingly) |
| 16:55.46 | dank_work | And he said that I could |
| 16:55.51 | dank_work | So I went to London and picked it up |
| 16:55.59 | Clyphox | How did you transport it? |
| 16:56.02 | dank_work | Unfortunately the hard drive is dead |
| 16:56.07 | dank_work | Under my arm, and on the bus |
| 16:56.10 | dank_work | (and on the train) |

| 17:17.56 | dank_work | Heh. Nah, it's okay. |
| 17:18.18 | dank_work | It seems like it's what a server *should* be. |
| 17:18.34 | dank_work | It has a nice console, and you can't use it for user tasks like web browsing |
| 17:18.43 | Clyphox | I had great fun with Veritas Backup server/client on NW5 last Friday |
| 17:18.59 | Clyphox | I know what you mean |
| 17:19.00 | dank_work | (although I'm sure it's possible to port lynx/links to Netware, as an NLM) |
| 17:19.14 | Clyphox | Well they got X and fvwm2 so why not.. |
| 17:19.25 | dank_work | It could be Veritas |
| 17:19.28 | dank_work | But I can't remember |
| 17:19.32 | dank_work | It's in the loft somewhere :) |

| 20:23.17 | Leeds | well, murb doesn't... |
| 20:27.39 | Leeds | the point of the movies, by the way, is more the sound than the video... |

| 20:51.49 | dankolb | It's not my hardware. |
| 20:51.57 | stephen | but you obviously haven't freed your mind enouh, so you *still* believe it exists and therefore it still hurts |
| 20:52.00 | dankolb | It's my phone that's making the squeaking noise |
| 20:52.02 | dankolb | No. |
| 20:52.06 | dankolb | My mind is blank. |
| 20:52.11 | dankolb | Ask Leeds - he knows me well enough |

| 22:20.31 | Huhn | thnx anyway, I choose GTK |
| 22:20.36 | dankolb | Okay :) |
| 22:20.41 | dankolb | It's up to the editor to fix it :) |
| 22:20.50 | Huhn | gna, I'm the editor ;)) |
| 22:20.55 | dankolb | So fix it :) |

| 22:24.42 | Huhn | nice |
| 22:24.52 | dankolb | Yeah. Procmail is good that way |
| 22:26.51 | Huhn | I like procmail |
| 22:28.06 | dankolb | I have a system-wide procmailrc, plus an individual one |
| 22:28.57 | dankolb | The most advanced rules I have are: |

| 22:29.41 | dankolb | And the same again, but with *hits=[5-9]\.* |
| 22:30.03 | Huhn | nice ;) |
| 22:30.18 | dankolb | Yeah. Only because something is slightly wrong with Spamassassin's spamd |
| 22:30.21 | Huhn | I wrote a killfile for one mail address: |
| 22:30.52 | Huhn | :0 |
| 22:30.59 | dankolb | It scores properly, but doesn't seem to return the correct exit code, so it always comes up with X-Spam-Status: No (even with, say, a spam score of 15) |
| 22:30.59 | Huhn | * ^From.*XYZ |

| 22:39.27 | Huhn | btw: the article was interesting, compared peer-to-peer clients for Linux |

| 22:42.41 | Huhn | that would be no fun |
| 22:44.35 | Huhn | is it expensive in uk? |
| 22:44.58 | dankolb | I'm paying £25/month, with a static IP |
| 22:45.27 | Huhn | that's cool |
| 22:45.30 | dankolb | And I had a £50 setup charge |
| 22:45.34 | dankolb | Plus modem extra |
| 22:45.36 | Huhn | not too much |
| 22:46.05 | Huhn | in Cologne you get a very cheap DSL connection when you have a press ID :) |
| 22:46.13 | dankolb | Lucky you :) |

| 22:46.49 | Huhn | :) |
| 22:47.08 | dankolb | Yeah. I paid £150 for my (wireless) router, and another £100 for the Airport card for the laptop |
| 22:47.35 | Jenson | me thinks ADSL sounds far too confusing for her |
| 22:47.37 | Huhn | oh, my modem was free |
| 22:47.39 | Jenson | oops |
| 22:47.42 | Jenson | forgot the / |
| 22:48.35 | dankolb | But can you wait about 4 weeks between ordering it and finally getting it? |
| 22:49.00 | new2unix | dan: i didnt think it was that long a waiting list |
| 22:49.17 | dankolb | It took BT 4 weeks to enable mine |
| 22:49.57 | Jenson | that was over christmas thiough wasnt it? |
| 22:49.58 | dankolb | If you get it with BT, they might enable it quicker |
| 22:50.04 | dankolb | So? |
| 22:50.10 | dankolb | It should take around 2 weeks |
| 22:50.33 | Jenson | it took whsmith 6 weeks instead of 2 to process a clubcard application in december |
| 22:51.00 | new2unix | ive seen the modem i want but cant afford it at the mo. was initially thinking of sharing the bandwith with my neigbours far and wide and probably asking for a donation to help cover the initial costs. still thinking about it though. |
| 22:51.13 | dankolb | :) |
| 22:52.59 | dankolb | Could need a large network of base stations, though |
| 22:53.12 | new2unix | thats another reason why i havent ditched my present isp. ive got all my linux/bsd boxes ready to go. all i need now is money for the router and i'm set to go. (another node on the consume map :) ) |

| 22:55.07 | dankolb | (probably) |
| 22:55.24 | Jenson | dankolb: Thought you wanted to 'keep an ete on me' |
| 22:55.37 | dankolb | Yeah, unless something comes up |
| 22:55.42 | Huhn | skugg: I'm going, I booked a flight some days ago |
| 22:55.49 | dankolb | Ahh yes. |
| 22:55.50 | skugg | new2unix, heh. an aspiring one then. --> brautaset.org/diary.html -- see most recent entry |
| 22:55.55 | dankolb | That reminds me why I have to go. |
| 22:56.01 | Jenson | Its alright I'll be ok by myself anyway |
| 22:56.08 | dankolb | I owe Huhn a few beers for the Muppet Shows she'll be giving me :) |

| 22:56.45 | Jenson | new2unix: I would be, but certain people would kill me |
| 22:56.49 | Huhn | skugg: I miss you all that much ;)) |
| 22:57.08 | skugg | Huhn, heh, i'm sure you do ;) |

| 22:57.58 | skugg | (usually when arranging who to invite) |
| 22:58.24 | skugg | Huhn, a nifty idea |
| 22:58.35 | Huhn | skugg: yes, and so healthy for other ppl ;) |
| 22:58.36 | skugg | whatever made you think of that? :D |

| 23:02.32 | Huhn | Jenson: go get them, they're evil! |
| 23:02.44 | skugg | Jenson, so don't break your teeth on the screwdriver -- that's what perl is for ;) |
| 23:02.58 | dankolb | Heh. |
