10:19.17 | kokozedman | hi folks! |
10:19.24 | kokozedman | everybody's asleep ? haha |
10:20.46 | geospart | someone has to be awake ....... |
10:21.04 | geospart | I mean I should be asleep its 6:20 am here |
10:21.19 | kokozedman | mm ... zzz |
10:21.55 | hali | great music player for .nsf files :) |
10:22.11 | geospart | .nsf files are lotus notes files |
10:22.12 | geospart | ha |
10:22.18 | geospart | sorry do lotus support |
10:22.26 | kokozedman | any linux kernel experts ? |
10:22.40 | kokozedman | in device and ACPI area ? |
10:23.20 | antiphase | Heh |
10:24.51 | hali | .nsf files are NES stero format :) |
10:25.25 | hali | Nintendo 8 bit music |
10:25.29 | hali | excellent! |
10:26.31 | geospart | me thinks lotus got there first ..... in os2warp days for taking the .nsf extension .... notes system file I think...which is a database .... and then the infamous .ntf..which is a template file ..... |
10:26.33 | geospart | haha |
10:26.43 | geospart | sorry look at hundreds of them daily |
10:27.17 | rhowe | any OpenBSD fools around? |
10:27.31 | geospart | anyone know acpi ....for kokozedman |
10:27.33 | kokozedman | heh |
10:28.46 | kokozedman | looks-like the experts need to wake-up! :) |
10:29.11 | kokozedman | i have a hardware problem: sound card device problem |
10:29.26 | kokozedman | when there is a parasite (in the power, or around the PC), it gets turned-off |
10:29.30 | geospart | sorry kokozedman ...wish I knew more |
10:30.13 | kokozedman | the work-around i found to re-enable the sound card is to hibernate the PC, but when starting to save to the swap FS, i cancel, using Backspace |
10:30.17 | kokozedman | then it gets back on |
10:30.19 | kokozedman | but, |
10:30.29 | kokozedman | that solution is kinda ... no elegant |
10:30.48 | kokozedman | i'm not planning to buy a new motherboard soon |
10:30.59 | kokozedman | so, i'm trying to find a quirk |
10:31.22 | kokozedman | it's the motherboard's fault |
10:31.38 | Ch0Hag | If you need a daemon which can be told to do things like reboot the computer or start/stop system services, is it better to just run it as root (or suid) or use something like sudo? |
10:32.47 | kokozedman | if there is something in the Kernel, that could detect that the sound card is down, then, the daemon would be useful |
10:32.55 | kokozedman | but currently, there is none |
10:33.05 | kokozedman | cause it's a hardware fault |
10:34.04 | geospart | if its just the sound card could you not get a usb or pci sound card .... they should not be too expensive ..... |
10:34.13 | geospart | and disable the one on the mb |
10:34.26 | kokozedman | strange to me |
10:34.37 | kokozedman | but my mb is striked by the thunder |
10:34.43 | kokozedman | and all PCI ports are dead |
10:34.46 | kokozedman | :( |
10:34.50 | geospart | dang |
10:34.50 | kokozedman | only USB remains |
10:35.03 | Ch0Hag | Motherboards are only cheap. |
10:35.29 | antiphase | It sounds like you'd be better off just speding a few quid on a new motherboard instead of wasting hours trying to solve a silly problem |
10:35.29 | kokozedman | i've been looking for USB sound cards, but they're not popular in my place, and i still haven't found one |
10:36.00 | kokozedman | i don't really consider it a silly problem: |
10:36.02 | Ch0Hag | kokozedman: Try looking for 'usb headsets' or something of that ilk. |
10:36.12 | kokozedman | this is a gateway to another challenge for me |
10:36.34 | antiphase | Buy a new motherboard and spend your time improving some other software that people can benefit from ;) |
10:37.14 | kokozedman | people can benefit from that trick too, if we find that |
10:37.17 | kokozedman | imagine: |
10:37.29 | kokozedman | u can manully turn on/off any of you devices! |
10:37.37 | geospart | yeah but kokozedman is not ine the easiest place to buy tech stuff either |
10:37.39 | kokozedman | itsn't that cool ? :) |
10:38.44 | kokozedman | yeah! that's true |
10:38.58 | kokozedman | we get almost the double in price for hardware |
10:39.10 | antiphase | How about on eBay? |
10:39.16 | antiphase | 10 quid for a mobo |
10:39.31 | kokozedman | and the worst, they're not of quality |
10:39.42 | kokozedman | no eBay at my country buddy! |
10:39.45 | kokozedman | i'm in africa |
10:39.55 | kokozedman | more precisely: Madagascar |
10:40.01 | geospart | I have had stuff DHL'ed from overseas before...not sure if you could...you would just need to find a comapny that would not kill you on shipping costs |
10:40.33 | kokozedman | :) |
10:41.00 | kokozedman | there's the DHL here! they're good |
10:41.01 | geospart | heck and I thought it was bad only have 5 computer stores in my city .. |
10:41.04 | kokozedman | but their expensive |
10:41.06 | kokozedman | :) |
10:41.54 | kokozedman | oups! |
10:41.59 | kokozedman | i'm feeling too hungry |
10:42.06 | kokozedman | later guys |
10:42.43 | geospart | later me too ..... |
10:44.18 | antiphase | 62/8 was allocated to RIPE last time I looked |

16:07.38 | Ch0Hag | Is it worth buying an old sun monitor for £20? |
16:11.46 | antiphase | Depends if you want one |
16:14.30 | Ch0Hag | I'm sure I could find a use for it. |
16:15.32 | antiphase | Doorstop, or chuck it in a lake and poison some fish |
16:19.05 | Ch0Hag | Indeed yes. |
16:19.21 | Ch0Hag | Or even use it to see things produced by a computer. |
16:19.54 | antiphase | A 13W3->VGA adapter and a modern monitor might do just as well, mind you |
16:21.57 | Ch0Hag | That's the question really. |
16:22.08 | Ch0Hag | Is it or a modern monitor better. |
16:33.53 | boudiccas | Ch0Hag; define 'better' :) |
