| <romana> Phlosten: i am so sorry mate | |
| <Phlosten> sorry that I have to be tortured with server 2k3? | |
| <romana> yup:)\ | |
| <Phlosten> I am learning how to do everything the linux way as they teach us the server 2k3 way :) | |
| <romana> lol | |
| <Phlosten> one of the practicals later this year will be for us to integrate linux with a windows network | |
| <siccness> does anyone here know much about /var/log/messages? | |
| <siccness> and the lines of authentication failure | |
| <Phlosten> siccness: what are you needing to know? | |
| <siccness> the difference between 'ruser' and 'user'? | |
| <Phlosten> its not root user ? | |
| <cafuego_> probably remote user | |
| <Phlosten> that sounds more like it | |
| <siccness> cafuego_: yeah | |
| <siccness> it isn't clear what my assignment wants ahh well | |
| <siccness> Top 5 most failed login attempts, with usernames and how many times | |
| <siccness> they failed to logged in | |
| <siccness> im not sure whether it means user or ruser | |
| <cafuego_> if I had any failed logins in my log i'd assist ;-) | |
| <siccness> i have failed logins | |
| <cafuego_> siccness: go 'user'. | |
| <siccness> yah | |
| <cafuego_> grep / sort / uniq -cd / sort | |
| <siccness> do you have ssh? | |
| <siccness> yeah i know : | |
| <siccness> i have it all done | |
| <cafuego_> yes, but key auth | |
| <siccness> hmm | |
| <siccness> cuz the next one wants: Top 5 most successful login locations | |
| <siccness> i only have unsuccessful login locations | |
| <Phlosten> hooley dooley, time to head to school | |
| <Phlosten> cya all | |
| <Tatey> I might just hey guys | |
| <Tatey> errr | |
| <Tatey> minus the first 3 words ) | |
| <Tatey> :) | |
| <siccness> Hey | |
| <Tatey> what's happening? | |
| <siccness> just writin up a bashy in a non-evil distro, you? :P | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Who wants an iBook? $800 | |
| * Davo_Dinkum needs to get rid of this iBook | |
| <Tatey> no, buy my iBook $800 | |
| <siccness> lol | |
| <Tatey> I'm serious... | |
| <Tatey> a non-evil distro... I thought you used Gentoo? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> How do second chance offers work on ebay? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Are there any other X Window System desktop environments | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> apart from KDE, GNOME and Xfce? | |
| <henno> Davo_Dinkum: enlightenment | |
| <henno> and CDE I suppose | |
| <henno> I think 'technically' enlightenment is a window manager, but E17 is more and more becoming a DE with the bundled tools | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Yeah I'm after a full DE. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I need automounting etc | |
| <Tatey> Davo_Dinkum: basically, no. KDE, GNOME or Xfce are DE's | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I should use Xfce. GNOME sucks too much ram. | |
| <Tatey> what exactly do you want from a DE? | |
| <Tatey> how much RAM do you have? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> 768MB currently, but that may change when I get another notebook (bidding on ebay for one ATM) | |
| <Tatey> I wouldn't be worrying about GNOME memory consumption with that much RAM | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Tatey: Having iceweasel always open doesn't help :( | |
| <Tatey> when I was using GNOME, I was lucky to exceed 250MB of RAM useage | |
| <Tatey> No, Mozilla isn't the easiest on memory. It certainly isn't that bad either | |
| <Tatey> have you looked at using Opera? | |
| <Tatey> admittedly, Opera is non-free | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Yes, that's why I haven't looked at using Opera. | |
| <Tatey> Konqueror's KHTML WebCore engine is very clean and fast | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Eeew konqy as a web browser | |
| <Tatey> well, it's faster than Firefox | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I like my file manager and web browser *seperate* | |
| <Tatey> fair enough | |
| <Tatey> *fair enough | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Ahh your spelling was correct? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> *correct | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Stupid QWERTY | |
| <Tatey> heh | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I should make my own layout | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Actually I want a frog keypad | |
| <Tatey> hah | |
| <siccness> Hahaha, took out another piece of the fence | |
| <henno> if you can't run gnome/kde/whatever with 768MB or RAM, something is seriously wrong | |
| <henno> I am not even using 256 total memory, and that is including a lot of server processes | |
| *** cps|out is now known as cps | |
| <henno> mysql, pgsql, apache, lighttpd, samba, you name it, I have it enabled on this machine | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I can, but I'd rather leave the RAM free for iceweasel/VLC/gnome-terminal/comix/etc | |
| <henno> plus, I have both opera and firefox open atm | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I watch XVID files in VLC, so that takes up RAM | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> each XVID file is about 175MB | |
| <henno> err.. so | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> It's loaded into memory. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> bbl | |
| <henno> so if you watch a DVD with VLC you think you need >*GB of ram? | |
| <henno> come on | |
| <henno> 8GB* | |
| * henno plays a 200MB xvid file | |
| <henno> my memory usage went up a grand total of 30MB | |
| *** jhawtin_ is now known as lucychili | |

| <henno> my calculations tell me your network speed is 248.8888888888888889KB/s | |
| <henno> == dodgy | |
| <Hit3k> KB/s or Kb/s? | |

| <henno> siccness: damn righ | |
| <Hit3k_> xfce doesnt suck | |
| <henno> t | |
| <Hit3k_> its just missunderstood | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Hit3k_: Yeah probably. | |
| <siccness> no, xfce sucks | |
| <henno> xfce serves it's purpose.. unforunately that purpose is not one of mine | |
| <romana> xfce meh | |
| <siccness> Davo_Dinkum: You'd be surprised on how much productivty increases when you ditch GNOME | |
| <romana> its not mine, eitehr i go 90% console/fvwm black no panels | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I don't want any panels in my desktop environment, dammit! They take up valuable screen real estate. | |
| <romana> or i just go gnome | |
| <romana> nbd | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> siccness: Probably, but how big is the learning curve? | |
| <siccness> Depending on what you go to, really. | |
| <Hit3k_> e17 is my longtime lover | |
| <siccness> I spent one day on OpenBox to get it right, about half a day getting fvwm the way I liked it | |
| <henno> Hit3k_: e17 and I have been having an affair for some time now | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> siccness: Yeah that's why I avoid WMs. Too much time tweaking it. | |
| <henno> my other WM/DE's do not yet know about 'us' | |
| <Hit3k_> henno, I'll kill you!!!!!!! | |
| <siccness> Davo_Dinkum: It's just to get it 'right'. | |
| <siccness> Once you've got it 'right', everything falls into place. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> siccness: I want it to be 'right' when I install it, not after 48 hours of tweaking it. | |
| <Hit3k_> brb | |
| <siccness> Well, that's your call really. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Yep | |
| <cafuego_> Davo_Dinkum: MacOS X it is, then. | |

| <siccness> There's no pleasing you at all, Davo_Dinkum :P | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> siccness: No, no there isn't. | |
| <cafuego_> turn the dock off, then | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> cafuego_: Haha good luck | |
| <siccness> cafuego_: that goes against his I want it to be 'right' when I install it" | |
| <siccness> damn it, missed a quotation. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> There's a button in system preferences is there? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> cafuego_: ^^^ | |

| <Davo_Dinkum> Alt+Tab for me | |
| <romana> windows side by side? | |
| <siccness> nah that's shit | |
| <siccness> windows side by side = means you can work on 5 things quickly | |
| <siccness> crack open 5 terminals | |
| <siccness> voila | |

| <romana> lol ditto | |
| <Hit3k_> DIY pastebin there siccness ? | |
| <siccness> Of course. | |
| <Hit3k_> I only use up to 2 desktops at a time | |
| <cafuego_> siccness: `screen' much faster than terminals | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> siccness: What are you watching? | |
| <siccness> cafuego_: depends | |
| <cafuego_> if you're me, it is ;-) | |
| <siccness> Davo_Dinkum: Adam Hill - Advanced Australia Fair (Sung over Working Class Man) | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Uhhh, ok..... | |
| <cafuego_> Hills | |
| <cafuego_> he's got an 's' | |
| <siccness> My apologies, cafuego_ :) | |
| <siccness> or sorry, apologie :P | |
| <cafuego_> comedy festival gala? | |
| <siccness> some shit like that yea | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> "Hills was born without a right foot and, in his own words, "nobody really knows why". He wears an artificial right foot." <<< Adam Hills | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> From wiki | |
| <cafuego_> Yes, he does. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> That wasn't a question. | |
| <siccness> His response wasn't an answer, either. | |
| <cafuego_> Just confirming, saeeing as I heard first-hand ;-) | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> It sure sounded like one. | |
| <siccness> In 2003, Adam scored a minor hit with Working Class Anthem, in which he sang the lyrics of the Australian National Anthem to the tune of Working Class Man, a famous song by iconic Australian rocker Jimmy Barnes <--Minor hit my ass, I'd pay $500 to have him record it in decent quality! | |
| <romana> dude, we were just discussing the hills version in teh richarddawkins forums | |
| <romana> odd | |
| <cafuego_> he does it to many other songs too | |
| <cafuego_> (sing your anthem) | |
| <romana> we all said that was the one version wed like to have as national anthem | |
| <siccness> yeah | |
| <romana> isnt MY anthem | |
| <romana> it blows chunks | |
| <siccness> it's definitely my choice. | |
| <cafuego_> you an aussie? | |
| <romana> yes:) | |
| <romana> i refuse to accept it | |
| <cafuego_> I'm afraid it is, then. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Is that a retorical question? | |
| <romana> NOOOO | |
| <siccness> Mind you, I'd be happy with Jimmy Barnes - * [wild card] for an anthem | |
| <cafuego_> you HAVE to have it! It's the law! | |
| <cafuego_> John Howard would come and natter at you if you didn't! | |
| <siccness> Barnes - Driving Wheels :D | |
| <Hit3k_> Barnes came out of surgery all right? | |
| <romana> yup | |

| <Davo_Dinkum> *lug | |
| <rimmington> soz, i got those 2 mixed up :P | |
| <siccness> rimmington: happens to the best of us | |
| <siccness> wheres my damn beer | |
| <cafuego_> siccness: it does in fact not happen to me. | |
| <purserj> and besides, Ubuntu now has ESR as a cheer leader | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> LOL this guy is trying to show LCD backlight leakage using screenshots. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I don't think he understands how screenshots work. | |
| <purserj> can gentoo honestly say they have someone of ESR's "stature" ;) | |
| <cafuego_> purserj: Which bit are you referring to specifically? | |
| <siccness> yes | |
| <siccness> purserj: some random bloke down the street | |
| <purserj> cafuego_: you missed ESR's dummy spit on the fedora lists? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I'm so jumping ship. I don't want ESR using the same distro as me. | |
| <cafuego_> purserj: What would I need to go neara fedora list for? | |
| <siccness> Davo_Dinkum: hahaha | |
| <cafuego_> purserj: Did he crack the shits about media support? | |
| <siccness> ESR appears to be a nutcase | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> cafuego_: Yeah he did. | |
| <purserj> let me find the original email | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> siccness: Umm, appears? | |
| <cafuego_> Why didn't he go with Mint then? | |
| <siccness> Davo_Dinkum: heh | |
| <purserj> https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2007-February/msg01006.html | |
| <cafuego_> Davo_Dinkum: To be fair, inability to use Youtube, watch DVDs and play MP3s on a default install does make people not want to use Linux. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Kamping_Kaiser: Where's that ASCII art you found before? | |
| <purserj> summary, ESR broke something, decided it was the entire fedora communities fault and wrote a massive dummy spit and left for ubuntu | |
| <cafuego_> purserj: As long as the fedora community shrugged and went on doing what it was doing before, i see no problem | |
| <siccness> lol | |
| <siccness> Does that mean ESR is going to join ubuntu mailing-lists and whinge? | |
| <Rothbuntu> IT WAS AN EPIC DRAW | |
| <cafuego_> siccness: just imagine him evetually ending up on debian-legal | |
| <Rothbuntu> linux sucks because i can use it <--- :S | |
| <Rothbuntu> >_< can = cant | |
| <purserj> cafuego_: I think the general consensus was "Don't let the door hit you on the way out" | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> LOL | |
| <cafuego_> MEOW! | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> LOL best response>> https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2007-February/msg01016.html | |

| <siccness> oo smoko break is it | |
| <adhoc> hmmm ... lightneing means rain right ... | |
| <siccness> not always | |
| <adhoc> send some of that our way damn it! | |
| <cafuego_> adhoc: just lightning, no rain | |
| <purserj> not a hell of a lot of rain | |
| <cafuego_> so unless you want fires... | |
| <adhoc> damn | |
| <purserj> yeah | |
| <cafuego_> phone | |
| <Hit3k> I wish the bom would get the weather right. | |
| <siccness> yeah, it's not what i'd consider accurate. | |
| <siccness> then again, weather people have never really been on the ball | |
| <Hit3k> yeah | |
| <cafuego_> Hit3k: it's not easy,. seeing as melbourne weather == /dev/urandom | |
| <siccness> heh | |
| <Hit3k> cafuego_, true | |
| <cafuego_> interesting boundary with antarctic storms vs. hot interior, if they're 100km off in predicting a front, the weather is completely different | |
| <cafuego_> that said, the boring weather in broome rocks | |
| <adhoc> for HOUR in `seq 1 24` ; do weather=`dd if=/devrandom of=- bs=1 count=1 ; done | |
| <Hit3k> thats it im moving somewhere cold. | |
| <siccness> adhoc: too much time on your hands mate | |
| <Tatey> Gentoo | |
| <adhoc> what sdo you think i do al day... | |
| * siccness smacks Tatey | |
| <Hit3k> I'd have to agree with siccness there mate | |
| <adhoc> Tatey: is right, if you run gentoo, you must have too much time on your hands ... | |
| <purserj> hmm this is why I never have gaim on | |
| <Hit3k> whys that purserj? | |
| <adhoc> purserj: whys that? | |
| <siccness> amazingly, im the only gentoo user who doesn't update | |
| <Hit3k> hahaha | |
| <siccness> so really, gentoo is no work for me :) | |
| <purserj> adhoc: bots | |
| <Hit3k> I never updated my gentoo system | |
| <adhoc> siccness: your just lazy! =P | |
| <siccness> pretty much yeah | |
| * cafuego_ had better go and fetch his lovely wife | |
| <adhoc> siccness: it takes me about 5minutes per week to keep all my boxes up to date =P | |
| <siccness> there's actually no real reason for me to use gentoo | |
| <cafuego_> siccness: s/me/anyone/ | |
| <siccness> but, because ive never ran into an issue, i dont really need to change | |
| <MistaED> what about the ricer points? | |
| <siccness> unlike when i was using ubuntu, nothing but errors man | |
| <purserj> meh, lesson learnt with gentoo, make sure you're on the correct profile when building first off | |
| <siccness> bugs, diseases, errors, BSoDs | |
| <cafuego_> MistaED: Only if you have glowy LED fans and wings | |
| <praetorian> for HOUR in `seq 0 23`; do echo "This episode of 24 tasks place between $HOUR:00:00 and $(($HOUR+1)):00:00"; sleep 60m; done | |
| <siccness> Gentoo is better than Arch though, Arch doesn't actually install :P | |
| <adhoc> siccness: your confusing ubuntu with windows mat | |
| <siccness> lol | |
| <Tatey> you don't install | |
| <siccness> LOL | |
| <MistaED> i get a BSOD with ubuntu when xorg or the nvidia driver breaks :P | |
| <adhoc> interesting, internode ahve a buncha packages missing from their ubuntu mirror | |
| <Hit3k> odd... | |
| <MistaED> also the aiptek tablet driver makes xorg fail if it's not plugged in | |
| <adhoc> MistaED: thats the proprietry one? | |
| <MistaED> adhoc: yeah | |
| *** cps is now known as cps|out | |
| <adhoc> MistaED: well then | |
| <adhoc> unless you run dual haed there no reason | |
| <MistaED> haha adhoc, i heavily rely on my 3d accelerator :) | |
| <adhoc> what for? | |
| <MistaED> and it doesn't involve games or beryl | |
| <MistaED> maya and soon blender | |
| <adhoc> ah opk, i'll pay that | |
| <adhoc> how much did you maya for linux cost? | |
| <siccness> <--vesa user here | |
| <MistaED> i mean it BSOD's when lupine's repo isn't in sync with the kernel, just that error message saying "xorg can't start" | |
| <adhoc> siccness: old video hardware? | |
| <adhoc> trident 900 perhaps? | |
| <siccness> nope | |
| <praetorian> he bought it when he was a boy! | |
| <siccness> ati x1300 pro | |
| <siccness> im just too lazy to do anything | |
| <MistaED> adhoc: hah, i'm a student atm and plan to buy it when i get a job (or convert to blender) | |
| <adhoc> so it seems | |
| <adhoc> MistaED: convert to blender ;) | |
| <siccness> i have no reason for anything other really | |
| <siccness> all i do is use firefox/gaim and 30 terminal windows | |
| <Hit3k> I cant use blender | |
| <praetorian> gimp is complex | |
| * Hit3k loves 3Ds Max | |
| <adhoc> it takes time. but its not too bad | |
| <adhoc> 3ds is easy to use | |
| <adhoc> i have built some neat models in 3ds =) | |
| <adhoc> cars mostly | |
| <MistaED> yes i am very impressed with blender, just i know how to use maya very well | |
| <adhoc> MistaED: all in good time =) | |
| <Hit3k> yeah i did some pretty neat stuff in 3ds | |
| <Hit3k> Mind you | |
| <MistaED> maya > 3dsmax though, can't beat the node-based system | |
| <Hit3k> I still havnt worked it out | |
| <adhoc> Hit3k: you keep worken at it =) | |
| <Hit3k> one of them has a linux port.. i think its... maya... not sure | |
| <MistaED> Hit3k: yep maya, i run it on linux | |
| <Hit3k> oh god it requires compiling.. | |
| <siccness> lol | |
| <siccness> sounds like something big sicc needs to look at | |
| <adhoc> siccness: yeah, blenders all rouhd thanks mate ;) | |
| <MistaED> in class i was playing around with blender's new sculpt tool, eyes all round ;) | |
| <purserj> For those that care, WIN Television uses blender in production | |
| <adhoc> surprises me not | |
| <adhoc> its cheap | |
| <adhoc> and doesn't invole macromedia adobe or autodesk licencing | |
| <Hit3k> MistaED, may i ask where you got maya for linux? | |
| <MistaED> purserj: really? that's cool | |
| <purserj> heh, actually they have 3d Studio but the director chose blender over it | |
| <adhoc> and that flexlm crap | |
| <MistaED> hit3k: yeah.... i'll tell you in a query window | |
| <purserj> And they've paid for site licences for the Adobe Suite for 25 odd sites | |
| <Hit3k> ok | |
| <adhoc> purserj: thats just crap | |
| <adhoc> we were threatened by adobe | |
| <adhoc> if we didn't have our licencing straight they would sue first | |
| <adhoc> then ask questions later | |
| <purserj> adhoc: well we had managed to put the fear of copyright into the station managers | |
| <adhoc> as an IT manager was enough to want to dump all their products and find something else | |
| <purserj> They insisted on using cracked software in the production process | |
| <adhoc> but the problem was convincing all the graphs to change =( | |
| <adhoc> purserj: yeah because the licencing fscks up all the time =( | |
| <adhoc> purserj: and you end up with un working software becuase there are serious bugs in adobes products =/ | |
| <purserj> nah, it was because the board wouldn't approve any half way decent software | |
| <purserj> well they spent 120,000 on Pinacle stuffs | |
| <purserj> thats each suite | |
| <adhoc> running a leggit office with fully up to date licencing is a full time job in a business of 100 seats | |
| <purserj> yup | |
| <purserj> now try doing it across the country | |
| <adhoc> when you start thinking about 25 apps per desktop | |
| <adhoc> purserj: i understand | |
| <MistaED> so purserj, you work at win television? that's quite cool | |
| <purserj> MistaED: I used to | |
| <purserj> In the head office | |
| <purserj> MistaED: where abouts are you? | |
| <MistaED> purserj: a student currently at a place called qantm in sydney, learning maya | |
| <purserj> right | |
| <MistaED> hoping for a job soon, the course ends in april :) | |
| <Hit3k> g'night | |
| <MistaED> night hit3k | |
