| <jumassillia> Hi everyone | |
| <jumassillia> I need a bit of help :-( .. | |
| <wikityler> anyone around? | |
| <tonyyarusso> Kinda | |
| <wikityler> in synaptic, are the download speeds in kiloits or kilobytes? | |
| <tonyyarusso> No idea - don't use it | |
| <Bilange> wikityler, probably kbytes, but its just a guess | |
| <wikityler> its labled kB/s and so are the files, and i doupt that the files would be in k. bits. | |
| <wikityler> i just find it hard to believe that i was downloading at ~4870 kilobits/s | |
| <jamonation> lophyte: eaccelerator and lighttpd are amazingly fast | |
| <jamonati1n> anyone know how to uncompress an ensim generated .tar.tgz file? | |
| <jamonati1n> file utility says it is just a blob of binary data | |
| <jamonati1n> tar xvzf doesn't work | |
| <Burgundavia> nope, | |
| <sinisterguy> how do compile a program and turn it into a .deb? | |
| <jamonati1n> sinisterguy: easy program to use is checkinstall | |
| *** jamonati1n is now known as jamonation | |
| <sinisterguy> jamonation: thanks | |
| <sinisterguy> also, has anyone had any success with the ubuntu package for the candido engine in edgy? | |
| <jamonation> never heard of it myself | |
| <sinisterguy> its my absolute favourite gtk engine | |
| <sinisterguy> fast and cairo based | |
| <jamonation> checking the berlios.de page now | |
| <jamonation> looks great | |
| <jamonation> i'm a kde fan myself, but been using gnome for a week or two just so I know what it's like | |
| <jamonation> hey lophyte ? | |
| <lophyte> jamonation: hey | |
| <jamonation> check out beefsprocket.zapto.org would you? see how the speed is? | |
| <jamonation> the compare to http://www.jamonation.com ? | |
| <jamonation> sorry to bug, but this lighty is blazing fast | |
| <lophyte> the first one seemed quicker | |
| <jamonation> but I can't tell how it runs from a remote host | |
| <jamonation> really? the zapto? that'y my home system | |
| <jamonation> on symapatico | |
| <lophyte> well, the first one was quicker to resolve DNS | |
| <jamonation> right, that makes sense | |
| <lophyte> after it actually started loading, they seemed about the same | |
| <jamonation> hmm good, I'm excited then | |
| <jamonation> we can install lighty on whichever virtual host, it has a very low footprint | |
| <jamonation> s/low/small | |
| <jamonation> thanks | |
| <lophyte> maybe I should set it up on the devbox | |
| <jamonation> it's a bit of a pain, but it might make all the difference | |
| <lophyte> though, i think the biggest problem is postgres | |
| <lophyte> one of those unixshells would be nice | |
| <jamonation> yeah, postgres is a pain with some modules too | |
| <jamonation> that unixshell, read this: | |
| <jamonation> http://www.codepoetry.net/archives/2005/12/18/why_specifically_unixshell_sucks | |
| <lophyte> didn't you say they had good reviews on drupal's site? | |
| <jamonation> they do indeed | |
| <jamonation> but so does quantact | |
| <jamonation> plus quantact is xen based | |
| <jamonation> and cheaper :) | |
| <lophyte> ah | |
| <jamonation> so I'm thinking maybe give their 30 guarantee a try? | |
| <lophyte> I like xen based | |
| <jamonation> thought you might | |
| <lophyte> which one? | |
| <lophyte> plan 96? | |
| <jamonation> just their basic plan96 http://www.quantact.com/xenplans.shtml | |
| <lophyte> ah | |
| <lophyte> yeah, sounds good.. | |
| <jamonation> I'll set it up tomorrow then | |
| <jamonation> no more sitting on the fence | |
| <lophyte> awesome | |
| <lophyte> you wanna split it? | |
| <jamonation> sure yeah | |
| <lophyte> that'll probably run better than the P300 | |
| <jamonation> I think with lighty and some db optimization, it should be more than fast enough | |
| <lophyte> yeah | |
| <jamonation> lol, probability seems overwhelming | |
| <lophyte> I'm gonna head to bed.. I'll be around tomorrow | |
| <jamonation> night then | |
| <lophyte> and I'll drop by the caffe on tuesday | |
| <jamonation> excellent, like I said, I've got to leave by 3 | |
| <lophyte> alright.. I'll get there before then | |
| <jamonation> oh, and are you good to help me convince david to do a key signing the 19th? | |
| <jamonation> night anyways | |
| <lophyte> what's on the 19th? | |
| <lophyte> today's teh 19th.. | |
| <jamonation> dec. 19th sorry | |
| <lophyte> ah | |
| <lophyte> what's special about dec. 19th? | |
| <jamonation> check your logs, tonyyarusso is going to be in town | |
| <lophyte> ah, sweet | |
| <jamonation> yeah | |
| <lophyte> key signing sounds fun | |
| <jamonation> i think we can get evan l. to do a cacert signing too :) | |
| <jamonation> he can elevate his authority to require only his verification instead of the ususal 4 or whatever it is | |
| <jamonation> but night, I'm keeping you | |
| <lophyte> nice | |
| <lophyte> alright.. night | |

| <lophyte> ouch | |
| <lophyte> I rolled out of bed around 7:45 | |
| <bhearsum> i'm running dapper with xfce on my laptop. when my battery reaches "critical" status my laptop shuts itself down. i've looked through syslog and messages and i'm unable to determine what is shutting the computer down. i want to stop this behaviour though. how can i find out what is shutting me down? | |
| <Burgwork> bhearsum: gnome-power-manager is | |
| <bhearsum> AHA | |
| * bhearsum tests this theory | |
| <bhearsum> i hadn't even considered a gnome service | |
| <bhearsum> sweet, it worked | |
| <bhearsum> thanks a bunch burg | |
| <Burgwork> no worries | |
| <sinisterguy> does anyone know how to convert an sqlite3 database to an sqlite2 one? | |
