10:30.26 | nasrat | umm not sure maybe Tushar was too busy :) |

10:35.27 | nasrat | Tarragon: hmm, I thought it wasn't available to rhn until Monday |
10:35.33 | nasrat | or am I just confused |
10:36.05 | Tarragon | That is only for mortals. Press pack has arrived early. |
10:36.45 | nasrat | ah fair enough. nptl looks good :) |
10:37.18 | Tarragon | The useless info they give. 9 box set will weigh 1.0lb while professional will weigh 2.76lb |
10:38.50 | nasrat | lol |
10:39.16 | nasrat | Just out of curiosity does it give any more details on the removal of ipvsadm support? |
10:40.14 | Tarragon | Info? It is a review copy of three CD's and one page advert. |
10:40.31 | nasrat | Fair enough. |
10:41.24 | Tarragon | You want to remove the virtual support? |
10:42.03 | nasrat | no it has been removed from the kernel and I don't think ipvsadm is shipped. I'm wondering if they're replacing it or if it's only going to be in advanced server |
10:47.26 | Tarragon | Not on the cut down review copy. So sorry I do not know. |
10:48.09 | nasrat | fair enough, have fun installing it :) |

19:04.09 | SpudUAway | Is anyone familiar with XScrabble? |
19:05.02 | Leeds | never heard of it |
19:06.21 | SpudUAway | I'm just trying to figure out what you can do with X Displays, something which XScrabble allows you to use. What needs to be set up to use X Displays (as in :0.0) |
19:07.43 | Leeds | in general, ignore the bit after the . |
19:07.57 | Leeds | the number before the . is the server number on the current machien |
19:09.26 | SpudUAway | If I have two machine on a network, both running X independently, can I still refer to the 'other' machines X Server. Am I alway '0', will the other machine always be '1'? |
19:10.01 | Leeds | ah, no |
19:10.21 | Leeds | the definition of an X display is <machinename>:<servernumber>.<screennumber> |
19:10.40 | Leeds | the first screen (usually the only one) on a machine is screen 0 |
19:10.48 | Leeds | so the first screen on my desktop box here is george:0 |
19:11.24 | Leeds | if you miss the machine name off, it uses localhost by default, and uses a local socket rather than a remote one - which is a lot quicker |
19:12.15 | Leeds | things like VNC and ssh make things a lot more complex by setting up virtual screens :-( |
19:14.00 | Leeds | got that? :-) |
19:14.29 | SpudUAway | Hmm. I don't seem to be able to make a connection to the 'other' X Server just by referring to it with "other:0.0". Does other stuff need to be turned on to get this to work? |
19:14.37 | Leeds | yeah, authentication |
19:15.27 | Leeds | various different levels... the easiest, by far, while being vaguely secure, is to run "xhost +<clientmachine>" on the server you want to display on |
19:15.33 | SpudUAway | OK, so putting XScrabble aside for the moment and opening up a terminal...... |
19:16.02 | SpudUAway | ... and reading man xhost...... |
19:16.03 | highbury | start off with something simple like xclock and just try and get that to display |
19:16.16 | Leeds | I tend to use xterm, but yeah |
19:16.44 | highbury | or run ssh with X forwarding set |
19:17.18 | Leeds | simpler to do it direct on a LAN... |
19:18.01 | SpudUAway | colin@mine:~> xhost +192.168.1.3 |
19:18.01 | SpudUAway | 192.168.1.3 being added to access control list |
19:18.13 | SpudUAway | Now, what should I be able to do? |
19:18.40 | Leeds | on 192.168.1.3 you should be able to run "DISPLAY=<othermachine>:0 xterm" and have it display |
19:19.06 | Leeds | remember that X uses different meaning for server and client than everyone else in the world |
19:22.16 | SpudUAway | Hmm, should the ip address of 'othermachine' work, 'cos it didn't! |
19:22.29 | Leeds | should work... |
19:22.50 | Leeds | so 1.3 is the server, and 1.what? is the client? |
19:22.51 | SpudUAway | DISPLAY=<192.168.1.3>:0 xterm |
19:23.01 | SpudUAway | sh: 192.168.1.3: No such file or directory |
19:23.15 | Leeds | without the <> :-) |
19:23.21 | SpudUAway | That should be - |
19:23.25 | SpudUAway | Bash: 192.168.1.3: No such file or directory |
19:23.28 | Leeds | that is to make where you should replace something! |

19:25.28 | SpudUAway | Both are running X. |
19:25.51 | Leeds | which one is the server? |
19:26.59 | SpudUAway | Hmm, 192.168.1.2 is the machine I am using and I want to control a window on 192.168.1.3. Which one is the server? |
19:27.20 | Leeds | the server is the one you display on... the client is the one you run the command on... |
19:27.32 | Leeds | I did say X used strange meanings |
19:28.00 | SpudUAway | OK x.x.1.3 is the server. |
19:28.38 | Leeds | so, the thing with the ACL is the server... |
19:28.57 | Leeds | you need to run "xhost +<clientname>" in an xterm running against the server |
19:28.57 | SpudUAway | 'Access Control List'? |
19:29.26 | Leeds | yup |
19:29.31 | SpudUAway | So I need to run xhost on x.x.1.3? |
19:29.51 | Leeds | yup |
19:30.07 | SpudUAway | and clientname will be x.x.1.2? |
19:30.25 | Leeds | the important way to look at it is that the server provides display services, which are consumed by the client |
19:33.21 | Leeds | so? |
19:35.03 | SpudUAway | Hmm, on x.x.1.3 - |
19:35.10 | SpudUAway | everyone:~ # xhost +192.168.1.2 |
19:35.11 | SpudUAway | xhost: unable to open display "" |
19:35.51 | Leeds | okay... it doesn't matter on which machine you run what... all that matters is the value of the DISPLAY variable... that's the whole point of X :-) |
19:35.59 | Leeds | you've really never done this stuff before? |
19:36.15 | Leeds | what is DISPLAY set to in that xterm? console? |
19:36.15 | SpudUAway | You can tell, can't you! |
19:37.07 | SpudUAway | everyone:~ # echo $DISPLAY |
19:37.07 | SpudUAway | everyone:~ # |
19:37.18 | SpudUAway | So, it's not set? |
19:37.20 | Leeds | when I put a ? I mean I'm asking a question, and wanting an answer. is this an xterm or a console or what? |
19:37.46 | SpudUAway | It's an Xterm |
19:38.03 | Leeds | okay... I'm not meaning to be rude, but I can't see what you're doing... |
19:38.15 | Leeds | so if you run xterm from that xterm, it fails? |
19:38.55 | SpudUAway | I can't start the xterm on the remote machine, if that's what you mean? |
19:39.15 | Leeds | that's not what I mean... |
19:39.35 | Leeds | you ran xhost, then echoed $DISPLAY, in an xterm. if you run xterm from the shell, what happens? |
19:41.50 | SpudUAway | Hmm, you've just opened up another hole in my knowledge about the difference between xterms and shells. |
19:42.25 | Leeds | an xterm is a vt100 emulator |
19:42.48 | SpudUAway | 'konsol' is a KDE xterm or shell or consol? |
19:43.12 | Leeds | a shell is a program which runs in an xterm - it's entirely possible to run something else in an xterm, or even (while it's a lot harder) to run an xterm from an existing program and use it for i/o |
19:43.28 | Leeds | I did the latter at my old job... it's one of the lesser-known functions of xterm |
19:43.35 | Leeds | so it's not an xterm! |
19:43.42 | Leeds | why not just say konsol? |
19:43.54 | Leeds | konsol is a KDE (bah!) xterm clone |
19:44.29 | Leeds | it's good to see Top of the Pops with a large display with green console-fonts on it :-) |
19:46.41 | SpudUAway | I am going to admit defeat on the X Display thing, for now. |
19:46.48 | Leeds | why? |
19:46.59 | Leeds | just be *precise* and it's easy |
19:47.01 | SpudUAway | Is it something that could be easily shown off in the network labs? |
19:47.14 | Leeds | it's too trivial for that |
19:47.36 | Leeds | both machines have heads? |
19:47.55 | SpudUAway | Both of my machines, yes. |
19:48.05 | Leeds | right |
19:48.15 | Leeds | on 1.3, type "xhost +192.168.1.2" |
19:48.28 | Leeds | on 1.2, type "DISPLAY=192.168.1.3:0 xterm" |
19:48.50 | Leeds | that's all there is to it... |
19:49.00 | SpudUAway | On x.x.1.3 I get - |

19:51.35 | Leeds | that's just strange... |
19:51.40 | SpudUAway | Ah, no, hold on. |
19:51.55 | Leeds | give me more information about X on 1.3 - how did you start it? can you start X programs from anywhere? |
19:51.56 | SpudUAway | I am entering this command via ssh. |
19:52.04 | Leeds | doh! |
19:52.22 | Leeds | type it *on that machine* - that's why I asked about heads |
19:52.37 | SpudUAway | Well, the other machine is the other side of the room! |
19:52.47 | Leeds | and? |
19:52.55 | Leeds | get off your lazy ass and walk over there :-) |
19:54.06 | SpudUAway | It's a long way. |
19:54.13 | SpudUAway | All of 8' ! |
19:54.23 | zachary | SpudUAway: You need the exercise! |
19:54.24 | Leeds | 8 what? |
19:54.25 | zachary | :) |
19:54.34 | SpudUAway | I got the same error - |
19:54.39 | SpudUAway | everyone:~ # DISPLAY=:0 xterm |

19:54.39 | Jenson | SpudUAway: Stand up, then fall over, you should be almost there |

19:54.44 | Tarragon | We all wait for the long eight foot return trip |
19:55.01 | Leeds | <Leeds> give me more information about X on 1.3 - how did you start it? can you start X programs from anywhere? |
19:55.29 | Jenson | Ohhh, I just remembered I have a newbie question? |
19:56.10 | Jenson | Right here goes |
19:56.46 | Jenson | If I delete my Debian partition will it mess up the 2 versions of lilo that i have (another thing i oguht to fix) and make the system unbootable |
19:57.12 | Leeds | if one of the performers on Top of the Pops is wearing in-ear headphones, does it mean he's listening to himself so he knows when to mime? |
19:57.42 | SpudUAway | Prolly means their deaf, with us only wishing so! |
19:57.46 | Jenson | Leeds: they are call3ed monitors, so they can hear backing music properly, they do it when they are live too |
19:57.54 | Jenson | although he could also be miming |
19:58.06 | Leeds | Jenson: I know what monitors are, but aren't they usually stand-alone speakers, not in-ear headphones? |
19:59.06 | Leeds | SpudUAway: how did you start the konsol (should that have an e on the end?) on 1.3? |
19:59.27 | Jenson | Leeds: earphones AFAIK |
19:59.43 | Jenson | is anyone gonna answer my question? |
19:59.56 | zachary | Jenson: Dual booting? |
20:00.45 | Jenson | zachary: Nah I'm triple booting, I just want to delete a partition |
20:01.03 | Leeds | yay - warty towels! |
20:01.10 | SpudUAway | Leeds: I will have o leave it for now, now that the machine has been reset by unhelpful child. |
20:01.23 | Leeds | SpudUAway: whatever |
20:02.51 | zachary | Jenson: Depends on where the boot loaders are. If you delete a partition it will not affect the boot loader on the master-boot-record(mbr). But if you delete a partition that has a boot loader on it it will affect the the os's that the boot loader controls. |
20:03.33 | Jenson | zachary: I have one lilo on the MBR, and one on the Slack partition (blame zimm not me) and it's the Debian partition I want to delete |
20:05.08 | zachary | You "should" be able to delete the Debian with no affect. You might want to update /etc/lilo.conf on the slackware and enable it by typing lilo in a command shell as root |
20:05.48 | Jenson | My parents would be extatic if I fucked it up. They hate Linux |
20:06.20 | Leeds | back later... |
20:10.42 | Jenson | someone wanna tell me what, what im about to post means? |
20:10.55 | Jenson | bash-2.05a# lilo |
20:10.55 | Jenson | Warning: LBA32 addressing assumed |
20:10.55 | Jenson | Warning: Int 0x13 function 8 and function 0x48 return different |
20:10.55 | Jenson | head/sector geometries for BIOS drive 0x80 |
20:10.55 | Jenson | Added Win98 * |
20:10.56 | Jenson | Added Slackware |
20:12.16 | stephen | well, the 'Warning: LBA32 addressing assumed' can be solved by simply sticking 'lba32' on a line by itself in /etc/lilo.conf |
20:12.31 | stephen | dunno about the geometry errors though |

21:26.45 | Jenson | XP is annoying |

22:07.37 | Davilion | Hows it going? |
22:07.45 | skugg | slow |
22:07.50 | skugg | <-- bored |
22:08.09 | skugg | just been reading some jokes jenson posted though -- lots-o-fun there |
22:08.31 | Davilion | me to |
22:08.32 | Davilion | just got back to gala |
22:08.41 | skugg | gala? |
22:08.47 | nasrat | bingo? |
22:10.47 | skugg | i installed bogofilter today |
22:11.43 | skugg | will give it a bit and see how much of my spam it catches -- more and more spam starts to seep through spamassassin... |
22:12.10 | skugg | since bogofilter continually learns it should be able to cope |
22:12.22 | skugg | plus, it's *much* faster :) |
22:12.37 | skugg | it doesn't bring my machine to a halt handling 15-20 messages ;) |

22:14.52 | nasrat | fair enough, sorry for casting bad aspersions on your character :) |
22:15.18 | Davilion | lol |
22:18.31 | zachary | gotta go, good night! |
22:19.31 | Leeds | skugg: not using the spamd? |
22:19.54 | skugg | Leeds, yes I am. |
22:20.13 | skugg | this machine is not very memory-loaded though... |
22:20.17 | Leeds | ah |
22:21.26 | nasrat | I found the lmtp listener to be a bit leaky with SA. |
22:22.09 | skugg | if bogofilter turn out to be very good I can maybe get rid of spamd too -- it's not bothersome at the moment, but every little bit helps I guess. |
22:22.58 | skugg | nasrat, could you explain that? I'm not sure what you mean... |
22:25.04 | nasrat | spam assasin has a contrib lmtp proxy for spamd which you can hook up to lmtp supporting mta's, it leaked memory and didn't fully support all of lmtp |
22:25.40 | nasrat | Davilion: what are you shopping for? |
22:25.55 | Davilion | best friend stacy is 21 tommorow. |
22:26.05 | Davilion | specifically looking for jewelry. |
22:26.45 | nasrat | What sort of stuff - silver, gold, steel? |
22:26.52 | Davilion | silver. |
22:27.01 | Davilion | not sure what exactly. |
22:27.08 | Davilion | i've been going through photos looking at what she wears. |
22:27.32 | skugg | Davilion, overachiver ;) |
22:27.37 | Davilion | hahah |
22:27.55 | Davilion | well shes been telling all her (single) friends how nice I am etc... |
22:28.04 | Davilion | So i'd like to live up to my reputation. |
22:28.41 | Davilion | yeah me too, i dont wear any jewelry normally, i used to wear a ring, but i kept catching it on the inside of computers, got a nsaty shock once and stopped wearing it |
22:29.09 | nasrat | Davilion: if you're looking for original work, ISTR around Clerkenwell there are various artist/silversmiths |
