09:00.14highburygeorge: you asked about homechoice?
09:10.14Copebollocks!
09:13.00highburynot quite that bad
09:22.42Copeheh - getting a speeding ticket for going at *** 36 mph *** in the limehouse link, is.
09:22.56Copenot that I know for sure, but I just got flashed on m way into work.
09:23.55Copeok... its 20% over the limit, but I was just pulling away into an empty tunnel, and realised... ooh its a 30 in here, and *BANG* too late

09:55.24CopeI saw a volvo 240 for sale today
09:58.40morsingIT'S SNOWING!  :-D
09:58.51morsingMmm... Volvo 240. Did you buy it?
10:00.42murbit has stopped snowing.
10:11.35Copemorsing: only £75
10:12.09Copeno, i didn't buy it - i thought that at £75 it was probably a bit rubbish
10:16.30highburyI got flashed a few weeks ago on the M4, but fortunately I didn't get a  ticket
10:16.32morsingCope: Doesn't have to be. People through these things away for nothing
10:17.23Copehighbury: i get the impression the limehouse link cameras are mega efficient

12:11.56wethrinhello
12:13.23Copehello wethrin
12:13.42wethrinhi Cope. How's it going?
12:18.04Copeok... troubleshooting jumpstart process
12:18.14wethrinHeh. Work, work, work
12:18.28Copeone which is, I might add, very heavily customised
12:18.55wethrinDoes it make the tea for you while you're waiting?
12:21.03Copeno
12:22.06wethrinThat sucks
12:22.38Copeit seems like the digex begin and end scripts are not being run, and the standard sun ones are
12:23.05wethrinso something's not calling them?
12:24.15Copeor somethings calling the wrong scripts
12:24.34wethrinaye
12:35.41Georgehighbury: yeah
12:35.41morsingwethrin:!

14:24.05highburywhat other Homechoice questions did you have? no they don't offer static ips
14:24.18Georgehighbury: ok, that's all I wanted to know
14:24.28Georgehighbury: because they're the only guys who have LLU stuff in my exchange
14:24.32morsingGeo
14:24.36Georgehighbury: but if they don't offer static IPs they're useless to me
14:24.38CopeMor!
14:24.46CopeGeorge: dyndns?
14:25.00highburycope: I've been playing with Kickstart, finally learning how the %pre and %post scripts work.   very poorly documented
14:25.11GeorgeCope: hahaha no.
14:25.28Copehighbury: heh, kickstart is much less mature than jumpstart, and it shows!
14:27.22morsingCheck it!
14:27.23Copekickstart is fine but it is, as you say, not especially intuitive or well-documented.
14:27.34highburyI'm tweaking kickstart, so that its a little more modularised
14:28.59highburyso my %post chrooted scripts are individual, and runnable afterwards if wanted. I.e can run like init.d scripts,
14:30.55highburybut I really suspect I should be moving to use something like cfengine
14:32.30Copemmm
14:32.34Copeyes
14:32.43Copemy best friend, John, has been using cfengine in his new job
14:32.48Copelooks very good indeed
14:33.14Copewe use our own heavilly modified versions of kickstart and jumpstart
14:33.32Copeall written in perl and bourne, but fortunately very well documented
14:33.42highburyI'm looking to try and learn it myself (cfengine)
14:33.46Copemmm
14:33.57highburybut I guess they wouldn't want to share it
14:34.01highbury?
14:34.06Copeour stuff?
14:34.10highburyyep
14:34.55Copeno... its not opensource; but I'm sure I could be persuaded to explain the, erm, concepts.
14:36.33highburyactually where I am they've just started evaluating http://www.scali.com primarily for grid management, but also (perhaps) for general deployment
14:42.02Georgethere we go, disabled root login on my ssh
14:42.56Coperight... got a sol 9 jump working fine... now to try to spot the difference
14:45.54GeorgeONE WEEK
14:51.18highburywhat's the option to configure ssh, to NOT store known_hosts in plain text?
14:54.33Georgeanyone want to buy an athlon64 3500+?
14:58.40Copemaybe
14:59.09highburyhighbury: the answer is HashKnownHosts in .ssh_config
14:59.25Copehighbury: oooh, not sure; good question; if you need to know sooner than we can research it, then #openbsd is good for openssh questions
14:59.28Copeaha
15:01.18GeorgeCope: only 700 pounds
15:03.30GeorgeCope: but as you're such a great friend, I'll reduce to 600 pounds
15:06.14morsingWhat can read/convert wmv files?
15:06.45Georgemplayer
15:06.46Georgemencoder
15:06.48Georgewin32codec
15:06.56GeorgeDUH
15:07.27morsingNot mplayer
15:07.33Georgewhy not?
15:07.34morsingWhat's DUH?
15:08.02Georgeit's me saying "DUH!"
15:08.10morsingGeorge: Don't know. Error message and then it only plays sound
15:08.27Georgemorsing: using win32codec?
15:08.31morsingXine and Totem just complains and does nothing
15:08.41morsingGeorge: What's win32codec?
15:08.47morsingAnd how do I get it?
15:08.50Georgemorsing: it's a library for mplayer to load win32 codecs
15:08.55Georgemorsing: what distro are you running?
15:09.02morsingSo apt-get install win32codec?
15:09.30Georgeprobably
15:09.35Georgedo a cache search though
15:15.55morsingGeorge: IS this one of those licence issues again?
15:16.09Georgeyes
15:16.09morsingBTW it's MAndrake not Debian
15:17.07Georgeyou suck
15:17.25morsingGeorge: SO it won't be available then!
15:17.30morsingLinux suck
15:18.21Georgeyou suck
15:18.26Georgeit's available in Gentoo.
15:18.43Copegentoo doesn't suck as much as other distros
15:18.49George:)
15:18.59highburythere's a generic package for it IIRC
15:19.13Copeand a tar ball
15:19.54Georgemorsing: no matter which media player you use you're going to have to have win32codec
15:19.59morsingCope: Where?
15:20.04Georgefor wmv
15:20.14morsingGeorge: Yes - but they're not available!
15:20.21Erwinmake sure you have a Windows license too, of course
15:20.24morsingIt's all Richard Stallman's fault
15:20.26Georgemorsing: go fix that then
15:20.30Georgemorsing: that's not my problem
15:20.34Georgemorsing: you've got no choice.
15:20.35Erwinthey are availble from the mplayer apt site

15:21.43morsinghttp://www1.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design7/dload.html
15:23.11Copemorsing: look for a file called README
15:23.14Copeand read it.
15:23.37Copein the actual repository
15:24.02Copeit should be quite clear - something like: foo.tar.gz - win32codecs for mplayer
15:31.38morsingCope: Not really. What do I put in /etc/mplayer/codecs.conf?
15:31.54morsingIT doesn't say and just copying it to the directory doesn't work
15:34.14morsingHeyyy, I got it working now
15:35.32morsingcp /usr/local/extralite/wmvdmod.dll /usr/lib/win32/
