10:57.14 | z00dax | humm... nice and quiet in here.... perfect for a lazy sunday afternoon |
10:58.15 | wethrin | It's still morning! |
10:58.51 | z00dax | but an ideal setting to drift into the lazy afternoon, in 2 min |
10:59.29 | wethrin | True |
10:59.34 | wethrin | I'm off to make breakfast |
11:04.24 | AndrewBlack | Hi there - how can one get to create blogs on http://planet.gllug.org.uk/ |
11:05.01 | wethrin | Create a blog somewhere else with an rss feed, and prod mozrat or Dean until it gets added |
11:06.06 | AndrewBlack | So planet.gllugs doesnt host blogs. Any suggestions where to create them |
11:07.00 | z00dax | for eveyone who has no blog home, there is blogger. however, LJ has a fair few fans too |
11:07.09 | wethrin | livejournal; blogspot; blogger |
11:07.35 | wethrin | Or set up your own - PHP/CGI scripts exist |
11:07.41 | z00dax | i wonder how long before google has blogs too |
11:07.41 | wethrin | Or even Python |
11:07.53 | z00dax | ohh... humm a python blog, wethrin name one |
11:07.59 | z00dax | the best one even |
11:08.08 | wethrin | pybloxsm (or something like that) |
11:08.13 | wethrin | It's the only one I know of :) |
11:08.34 | z00dax | if its anything like the other java based bloxxsom(sp!) then i am not going anywhere near it |
11:09.23 | wethrin | Heh. I don't know if it does commmenting, though |
11:10.05 | z00dax | http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonBlogSoftware |
11:12.24 | AndrewBlack | Do people find commenting (other people commenting) useful or a pain in the arse. |
11:13.20 | z00dax | AndrewBlack: http://www.karan.org/blog/index.php/2005/06/15/p35 |
11:13.22 | Erwin | Depends on who reads the blog and what you write in it. Certainly you need to have good anti-spam system in place. |
11:14.03 | z00dax | comments are good, but you need to keep ( as Erwin said ) a good anti-spam process in place |
11:14.12 | z00dax | which is something that i need to do soon'ish |
11:22.52 | wethrin | Useful |
11:23.55 | z00dax | the guys at php.net decided - lets publish a list too, then gave up after it cross'd the 2k mark |

12:57.54 | boudiccas | George; where in norwich was your archery shop? |
12:57.58 | George | dunno |
12:57.59 | George | why? |
12:58.14 | boudiccas | i used to live in norwich and don't know of any archery shops there |
12:58.26 | George | it was in a residential area |
12:58.36 | George | in fact |
12:58.38 | George | it was a small house |
12:58.52 | boudiccas | terraced? |
12:58.55 | George | no |
12:58.57 | George | detached |
13:22.08 | boudiccas | Clairvoyants meeting canceled due to unforeseen events. |
14:17.43 | George | http://vm.gwright.org.uk/foo/ |
14:21.53 | boudiccas | George; is the piece at right angles to the bow to stop you getting bowcord lash on your wrist so that you don't need to wear a wristguard? |
14:23.13 | George | which bit? |
14:23.41 | boudiccas | the piece at right angles with blue bits on it |
14:23.48 | George | that's the stabiliser setup |
14:24.49 | George | or |
14:24.51 | George | wait |
14:25.33 | George | you mean the little button thing? |
14:25.40 | George | just above the handle? |
14:26.23 | boudiccas | its got ble knobby things on it |
14:26.33 | boudiccas | *ble = blue |
14:27.08 | George | long or short? |
14:27.12 | boudiccas | short |
14:27.13 | George | do you mean the 35" longrod coming out the front of the bow? |
14:27.25 | boudiccas | forget it :) |
14:27.26 | George | or the two 10" long rods coming at at 45 degree angles to the long rod? |

16:20.19 | Leeds | morning all |
16:21.39 | rhowe | Morning Leeds |
16:21.42 | rhowe | Leeds: How goes? |
16:21.57 | rhowe | o.O |
16:22.08 | rhowe | (aka grub 1.93) |
16:22.24 | rhowe | What a mess... |
16:22.25 | rhowe | [rhowe@xiao] /usr/local/src/grub-1.93 $ ls|wc -l |
16:22.25 | rhowe | 919 |
16:22.57 | Leeds | Leeds just lost to Watford... (football - was watching it at an Irish pub) |
16:23.16 | rhowe | Leeds: Lordi won Eurovision, though :) |
16:23.59 | Leeds | rhowe: so I saw - I fell asleep during the voting... got about 3.5 hours sleep last night |
16:24.02 | rhowe | cvs co ? :) |
16:25.08 | Leeds | the problem is that there's - as far as I can see - no easy way to do that properly for the modular build |
16:25.43 | rhowe | for module in module1 module2 module3; do cvs co $module;done? |
16:25.53 | Leeds | also, given that I expect to be using a driver from CVS, I thought I'd wait for the rest to be declared stable |
16:26.25 | Leeds | anyway, I also brought a falafel home from the takeaway place two doors down from the pub... this is in Wan Chai |
16:26.57 | Leeds | rhowe: I'm waiting, hopefully, for the r300 stuff to stabilise and get optimised, so that something newer than a 9250 can be used with free drivers |
16:28.51 | Leeds | latest I heard is that one of them is getting to the point of having a design which is usable as an accelerated desktop, but the hardware is going to cost $350 |
16:29.08 | Leeds | US$ :-( |
16:30.03 | rhowe | hm, still, interesting that they're even talking of having gotten that far |
16:34.04 | Leeds | honestly, I think open hardware is a dead end |
16:36.35 | mozrat | Hi Leeds, rhowe |
16:36.45 | mozrat | rhowe: Jordi were awesome :) |
16:38.49 | Leeds | morning mozrat |
16:44.15 | George | meh |
16:47.29 | George | my archery coach thinks I'm a nutter |
16:47.53 | wethrin | You are |
16:48.14 | rhowe | George: (S)he has an interesting way of spelling "fool" :) |
16:48.34 | George | well |
16:48.43 | George | he reckons I shouldn't have gone about 36lbs on the draw weight |
16:48.47 | George | because I got 42lb limbs |
16:48.59 | wethrin | lightweight |
16:50.58 | George | wethrin: I'd like to see you pull back a set of 42lb limbs to full draw |
16:51.21 | wethrin | heh |
16:51.53 | George | most people in my house at school can't do it |
16:51.54 | George | well |
16:51.58 | George | they found 34lbs hard |
16:52.05 | George | so I'm assuming they'll find 42 hard :P |
17:02.24 | Leeds | zzzzz |
17:38.32 | z00dax | boudiccas: i only setup at the time, i dont use munin regularly. |

18:04.41 | boudiccas | z00dax; just wondering how to get the foldingathome plugin working? |
18:05.57 | z00dax | i didnt know there was a plugin |
18:06.00 | z00dax | url ? |
18:06.11 | boudiccas | its in the plugin folder of munin |
18:06.37 | z00dax | aw man, i'll need to install it again then |
18:06.43 | boudiccas | /etc/munin/plugins/foldingathome |
18:07.07 | boudiccas | but i don't know how to get it working in munin :( |
18:07.26 | z00dax | have you tried their forums / lists ? |

18:12.40 | boudiccas | z00dax; it can also monitor the hard drive temperatures, and again I'd like to know how to get that working too |
18:13.47 | z00dax | i juse use snmp based monitors for that sort of stuff... and i use cacti + nagios for the actual admin end of things |
18:15.14 | boudiccas | i find with cacti i just get blue oblongs for everything, which isn't very useful ... i think its just telling me that I'm maxed out |
18:15.40 | boudiccas | nagios is probably overkill for just one machine |
18:25.10 | z00dax | they do different things.. nagios and cacti |
18:33.55 | rhowe | You can boot GRUB 2 via PXE by creating an image file in this way: |
18:33.55 | rhowe | cat pxeboot.img core.img >pxegrub |
18:33.59 | rhowe | Oh really? |
18:34.10 | rhowe | [rhowe@xiao] /usr/local/src/grub-1.93 $ find . -name core.img |
18:34.11 | rhowe | [rhowe@xiao] /usr/local/src/grub-1.93 $ |
18:34.44 | z00dax | does grub2 have openfirmware support finally ? |
18:36.57 | rhowe | z00dax: UltraSparc is down as "under development" |
18:37.51 | rhowe | hmm.. it makes reference to using an ANSI terminal on PPC & UltraSparc, courtesy of OpenFirmware |
18:56.39 | mozrat | I have a GRUB problem... my partition table is like this... http://pastebin.com/730006 |
18:56.48 | mozrat | when I boot I get GRUB error 18 |
18:57.05 | mozrat | which seems to be complaining that my boot partition is beyond the first n Gb of the disk |
18:57.18 | rhowe | hm.. 10:15pm tonight.. Panorama programme about fingerprints |
18:57.34 | rhowe | mozrat: How old's your BIOS? |
18:58.26 | mozrat | rhowe: Not actually too sure. I don't think it is that old. It is a IBM T42 |
18:58.35 | mozrat | so in the past couple of years |
18:58.53 | rhowe | mozrat: Should be fine - does grub require lba32 to be specifically enabled? |
18:59.05 | mozrat | no idea |
18:59.18 | rhowe | mozrat: Also, is grub installed in the MBR or in the beginning of a partition? |
19:00.00 | mozrat | rhowe: in the MBR |
19:01.09 | rhowe | mozrat: Hm.. dunno.. I've never used grub before |
19:01.20 | mozrat | ok, thanks anyway |
19:01.27 | rhowe | mozrat: Still, I thought any half-recent BIOS could handle booting from most disk layouts |
19:01.35 | mozrat | I would have thought so too |
