12:52.01gregjre
12:52.23murbleWethrin: was it Winder and Roberts that book you bought?
12:52.43WethrinYes.
12:53.14murbleRoberts is @cs.ucl.ac.uk or was then my copy was printed..
12:53.20WethrinRoberts is one of the course tutors.
12:53.33murbleyeah, you can tell him it is a crap book.
12:53.44WethrinHeh.
12:54.21murbleand that i passed my java course just by knowing some c and c++ :)
12:54.45*** join/#gllug cefisher (~cefisher@64.246.28.105)
12:54.45murbleand a rough apprication of how crap java is.
12:54.52WethrinHeh.
12:55.50WethrinToo early for you?
12:56.03gregjhehe
12:56.31gregji woke up about an hour ago
12:56.48WethrinYes. Early.
12:58.05*** join/#gllug cefisher (~cefisher@64.246.28.105)
12:58.18WethrinMmm. More Java lectures.
12:58.54WethrinBack in an hour. Or maybe two.
13:29.01gregjhow to clean screen with echo ?
13:29.09gregjhmm
13:29.16gregji'll use clear, doesn't matter
13:34.34murbleecho -n `clear`
13:42.25gregjWethrin: maybe you will know
13:42.35gregji setup 2 hd, new ones in raid-1
13:42.50gregjand on mkraid /dev/md1 he is synchronizing them, i don't know what for
13:46.20murbleuse mdadm it is much nicer.
13:47.23gregjhmm, how much is 1566 minutes in hours :>
13:47.32gregji guess i don't want to wait that long....
13:51.01gregjmurble: do you know how to create raid1 with mdadm - but without running synchronization process ?
13:51.25gregjapparently it seems that this mdadm does not use /etc/raidtab
13:51.26gregjgrrr
13:56.00WethrinWhy would you clear the screen using echo, rather than clear?
13:56.08gregji don't know
13:56.13Wethrin:)
13:56.18gregji realized after asking that i can use clear ;]
13:56.22Wethrin:)
13:56.48gregjok, i created md1 with mdadm - but he still want to resync those partitions
13:56.50gregjgrrr
13:56.52gregjwhy !

13:56.59WethrinHi Leeds
13:57.06gregjresync of 100GB takes ages
13:57.08gregjhi Leeds
13:57.19WethrinUse smaller disks.
13:57.34gregjbeep - incorrect answer
13:57.38Wethrin12GB won't take long to resync, and I'd happily swap you 2x 6GB drives for your 100GB
13:57.58gregjhehe
13:58.03gregjits not mine, its customers
13:58.13gregjdatabases are quite hudge
14:00.37WethrinDelete them.
14:00.40murblegregj: you can tell it just to create
14:00.48gregji did that
14:01.00murbleor maybe it has to be online
14:01.05gregj:/
14:01.12murblebecause it just tells the kernel what to do.
14:01.21murblemaybe you jsut want the mdadm.conf entries?
14:01.35gregjnope, he can run without them
14:01.42gregjthats a good side of mdadm
14:02.13murblegregj: I know.
14:02.26murblebut when you don't have it you have a longer command line :)
14:02.42gregji don't mind command line :D
14:02.45murbleI said I'd leave at 15:00
14:02.54murblegregj: yeah, but it means rembering more stuff to type.l
14:03.05murbleoftern when you have to know this things stuff like man pages are not avalible.
14:03.08Wethrinmurble: That's 3 mins ago
14:03.14murbleWethrin: I know
14:03.29murbleI've a pot of tea to finish before i leave though.
14:03.41WethrinOkay.
14:03.43gregjLeeds: how are you
14:04.02WethrinGive me a call when you get to Euston Square, or somesuch.
14:04.13murbleoh and i have 256 mb of compaq sdram 100mhz etc.
14:04.18murblespare
14:04.21WethrinThat's not bad. :)
14:04.33WethrinIs it only for a specific Compaq, or can it be used in other systems?
14:04.40murbleWethrin: it is, because i thought i was buying edo dimms
14:04.42Leedsgregj: chilled
14:04.50murbleand it turned out to be sdram dimms
14:04.52gregji got a flu again or something
14:05.02gregj:#
14:05.09murbleI've just a cold i hope.
14:05.20WethrinHm. Do you want to give it away? ;-)
14:05.33murbleWethrin: it is not an it.
14:05.40WethrinThem.
14:06.04murbleI was hoping to swap it for the correct memory that i need.
14:06.20murbleoh and the ppro was .99 p
14:06.26murbleconfused me on my cc statement
14:06.34murblenow howmuch does a cc transaction normally cost the vendor?
14:10.51WethrinI think it depends on the agreement they have with the CC company
14:11.01WethrinThey might just pay a standing charge to allow unlimited transactions
14:22.22Leedsthe one 'vendor' I know pays an amount per transaction
