08:50.03antiphaseI haven't seen a twin-tub washing machine for at least 25 years
09:09.20ChoHagSomething is wrong with nfs and it's beginning to get really annoying.
09:09.39ChoHag3.5 minutes to extract 300K of a debian source package.
09:10.27wethrinNFS is shit
09:10.31wethrinthat's what's wrong with it
09:11.04ChoHagYes, but it wasn't that shit before I moved to another server.
09:12.02ChoHagThankfully NFS documentation is clear and thorough so it's easy to debug...
09:13.24wethrinheh
09:25.01ChoHagBah.
09:25.03ChoHag<Pimp> Are you looking for contract or permanent work?
09:25.05ChoHag<Me> Definitely contract work.
09:25.07ChoHag<Pimp> I have a permanent position here. Would you be interested?

11:09.55ChoHag<Linux tard> First off, this [binary compatibility] is an argument that no user cares about.
11:10.07ChoHag<Solaris tard> We have customers paying tens of millions of dollars precisely because we claim backwards compatibility.
11:13.17wethrinhehe
11:16.10*** join/#gllug Dominic (~dominic@chaldene.m0dlx.com)
11:24.32ChoHagHoly crap. I've never heard this argument before! You know what, I'll help you out. The NYSE runs Linux too! That's really great to know. I'll be sure to recommend Linux to my grandma next time she wants to set up a global stock exchange in her knitting room.

11:31.14wethrinafternoon, dick_turpin
11:31.29dick_turpinlo
11:32.11dick_turpinHere's a question, I've come across this before but I've forgotten how to fix it
11:33.00dick_turpinI have a LAMP machine with a file easyinstall.php I access it via an IP as its on our internal network
11:33.36dick_turpinThe .php file either displays as code or wants to download (Explorer) rather than execute
11:33.50dick_turpinAny idea whats wrong?
11:34.26ChoHagmod_php not installed/configured.
11:36.05dick_turpinAha you might be right 1 sec
11:37.17*** join/#gllug londo (~georgiou@83-244-154-42.cust-83.exponential-e.net)
11:37.22dick_turpinHm could not find mod_php I need to look further
11:37.35yaMattdick_turpin, what distro?
11:38.52yaMattI use apache2 postgresql php5 php5-gd curl php5-pgsql
11:39.01yaMattfor my Debian LAPP install
11:39.23yaMattgd and curl are usually not needed though
11:40.33dick_turpinArch
11:40.43dick_turpinhave curl and gd installed
11:42.07yaMatti ususally create a file called test.php containing <?php phpinfo (); ?> to test it
11:43.22yaMattdick_turpin, you followed this? http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/LAMP
11:43.31yaMattpacman -S apache php php-apache mysql
11:43.32dick_turpinI did a "Hello Ugly" .php and that worked fine ok I did have to give the full url
11:43.55yaMattHello%20Ugly.php
11:44.59dick_turpinyaMatt: yes
11:45.47yaMattyou reloaded apache?
11:46.14yaMatti've been working on a new rule with apache, if in doubt, reload
11:47.07dick_turpinYeah 72 times :'(
11:47.29yaMatta2enmod php ?
11:50.07dick_turpinEr what?
11:51.32yaMattit's a tool for enabling modules in apache, might be debian only though
11:51.53yaMatta2 for apache 2, en for enable, and mod for module
11:52.09yaMattyou can also do a2dissite, guess what that does?
11:55.18dick_turpinIt gave a technical response
11:55.25dick_turpin"Get lost"

13:29.51dick_turpinYay \o/ fixed and sorted
13:30.30z00daxI love it when a windows user sits down in front of a linux cli and says 'now what ?'
13:33.17dick_turpinz00dax: Its hard to get your head around if you've been used to GUI for the last 10 years
13:38.13cbzhttp://www.softintegration.com/products/
13:43.26wethrinTo be honest, if you just sat me down at a CLI, I'd say "Now what?" because you didn't tell me anything more to do..

13:47.00z00daxwethrin: thats sort of what the point really is.
13:47.19dick_turpinsabinef72: Bonjour comment sommes-nous aujourd'hui?
13:47.29z00daxon windows this guy just spends load of time doing fluff because its windows and he needs to ( or prefers to ) micro manage every little aspect of things

13:53.24sabinef72dick_turpin: bonjour, aujourd'hui nous avons du beau soleil mais il fait froid (10°C) et dans votre belle angleterre ?

16:11.24j0nrany ideas why?
16:13.10*** join/#gllug j0nr (~j0nr@5f9ad036.in-addr.xenvz.co.uk)
16:20.01yaMattj0nr, sudo?
16:20.48j0nryaMatt: well I shouldnt have to sudo surely
16:21.01j0nrbefore I upgraded i just started 'screen' as many times as I liked
16:21.06j0nrnow I can start it only once
16:21.24j0nrusing byobu where you can have multiple 'tabs' of screens, I can have only one.
16:21.58j0nrif I try and create a second I get 'Cannot open /dev/tty(*): Permission Denied'
16:22.40yaMattyou're right you shouldn't have to
16:22.54yaMattyou could try reinstalling screen
16:23.19yaMattit's obviously a permissions thing and maybe re installing will run the permission setup scripts
17:03.16antiphaseDo you only have one tty available?
