[00:00:14] <boyd> It's clearly a conspiracy [00:00:15] * boyd runs [00:00:16] <jmcp_> gisburn: yes, the world is out to get you [00:00:26] <gisburn> boyd: unlikely. [00:01:05] <gisburn> I guess something screwed-up with the main page. Other pages below that point are accessible. [00:01:27] <gisburn> See http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/screenshots/ [00:02:56] <Gman> hrm, it does seem specific to ksh93 :( [00:03:21] <richlowe> I'd assume the web folks will hunt it down monday. [00:03:31] <gdamore> hi * [00:03:42] <gisburn> gdamore: Good morning! :-) [00:03:43] <Gman> gisburn, did you try modifying the home page, to get rid of any illegal characters that might cause it? [00:04:02] <gisburn> Gman: yes, I already tried to reset it. No luck. [00:04:10] <Gman> hrm, suckage :( [00:04:32] <Gman> whatever happened to that webapp project? :) [00:04:33] <gisburn> Gman: and the page worked a few days ago. and when I am logged-in in the page system it works, too. [00:04:40] <richlowe> Gman: who knows? [00:04:45] <richlowe> Gman: did it get enough nods? [00:04:52] <Gman> interesting that all the other children of that page seem to display ok [00:04:57] <Gman> richlowe, i think so [00:05:06] <gisburn> Gman: any idea why I am getting "rssread.ksh[298]: cat_http[30]: /dev/tcp/blogs.sun.com/80: cannot create [Not a directory]" only for blogs.sun.com ? [00:05:24] <richlowe> Gman: Yeah, it did. [00:05:28] <richlowe> Gman: wonder which side is slacking. [00:05:41] <Gman> richlowe, too easy to guess on that one :) [00:06:19] <Gman> gisburn, sorry, don't quite grok [00:06:23] <richlowe> Well, the tonic folk have enough to do as it is. [00:06:55] <Gman> not a good excuse [00:06:59] <richlowe> Sure it is. [00:07:17] <gisburn> richlowe: IMO the inventors of "TML" should get an extra "warm" place in h*ll. [00:07:47] <gisburn> richlowe: TML looks nice when you first use it - but anything more complex becomes a horrible pain. [00:08:04] <Gman> richlowe, we need distributed development [00:08:18] <Gman> and if stuff isn't getting done, it shouldn't be the sole responsibility of the tonic team [00:08:19] <richlowe> gisburn: not something I have to deal with :) [00:08:26] <richlowe> something I hope to not have to deal with in general, in fecat. [00:08:31] <richlowe> 'fact', even. [00:08:48] <gisburn> Gman: see http://svn.genunix.org/repos/on/branches/ksh93/gisburn/scripts/rssread.ksh - I can't get a tcp connection to blogs.sun.com while other applications do not have that problem. [00:11:00] <gisburn> The same script works fine with other RSS sites. [00:11:55] <Gman> gisburn, i'll mail some b.s.c folk for you, and see if they can help [00:12:22] <gisburn> b.s.c ? [00:12:26] <gisburn> er [00:12:31] <gisburn> blogs.sun.com [00:12:36] <Gman> yeah [00:12:41] * gisburn needs a little bit longer today to think [00:13:07] <gisburn> Gman: Either this is a bug in ksh93 or they are doing something special. [00:14:57] * gisburn continues the work on Tetris [00:15:45] <jmcp_> gisburn: you're implementing tetris inside ksh93? [00:16:16] <gisburn> jmcp_: yes [00:16:48] <gisburn> jmcp_: we already have pacman, a RSS reader (see above) and a mandelbrot fractal generator [00:17:14] <gisburn> jmcp_: I've been asked to create some demo applications. [00:17:54] <gisburn> The problem is that I am running out of usefull ideas. [00:18:23] * gisburn looks at Gman for ideas... [00:18:37] <andersmo> useful ideas. *looks at mentioned examples* - heh. =) [00:19:32] <gisburn> andersmo: well, I don't like the "hello world" examples which are totally uselless... and I want to add something "nice" ... "funny" ... that's why I picked "pacman". [00:20:32] <gisburn> andersmo: The RSS reader was more or less something which may be usefull if someone has no RSS reader installed (and it demonstrates ksh93 networking support) [00:20:45] <andersmo> add multiplayer to pacman? ;) [00:21:07] <gisburn> andersmo: And the mandelbrot demo shows floating-point math and usage of worker jobs (e.g. parallel execution of calcuation jobs) [00:21:20] <gisburn> andersmo: the original had no usefull multiplayer mode either. [00:21:38] <Gman> gisburn, one line summary of what your rssread script does? [00:21:52] <andersmo> Anything you haven't shown off in ksh93 yet, then? [00:22:05] <gisburn> Gman: fetches RSS streams and converts it to plain text. [00:22:15] <Gman> ok [00:22:26] *** jamesd_ has joined #opensolaris [00:22:29] <gisburn> Gman: it's a dumb RSS reader [00:22:34] <Gman> nod [00:22:43] <gisburn> extremely dumb [00:22:56] <dwc-> !seen gdamore [00:22:57] <Drone> gdamore is currently online in #opensolaris and last spoke on Sun 29 Oct 2006 23:05 GMT, saying 'hi *'. [00:23:03] <gdamore> yes, i'm here. [00:23:20] <gisburn> Gman: but I am woried that there may be something in the networking code, either at the server side (blogs.sun.com) or client side (ksh93) [00:23:45] <Gman> gisburn, i've mailed one of the admins, i'll let you know what he comes back with [00:23:52] <gisburn> Gman: ok [00:24:07] <gisburn> Gman: did you just post the url or the script itself ? [00:24:22] <Gman> posted your error message, and a link to the rssread script [00:24:24] <gdamore> gisburn: a useful example, would be to convert add-install-client, etc. to ksh93. [00:24:27] *** lloy0076 has left #opensolaris [00:24:29] <axisys> how do i tell sol10u2 to boot in single user mode but enable ssh? i want to install recommended patch cluster remotely thru ssh.. no console acces to my ultra 20 [00:24:52] *** dunc has quit IRC [00:25:01] <gisburn> gdamore: yes, but unfortunately addinstallclient must be able to run on any solaris >= 8, right ? [00:25:11] <gisburn> gdamore: that rules the usage of ksh93 out. [00:25:19] <gdamore> ah, good point. [00:25:33] <gisburn> gdamore: ask again in... uhm... eight years... ;-( [00:25:40] <gdamore> patchadd might be a good example. [00:25:44] *** dunc has joined #opensolaris [00:26:29] <gisburn> gdamore: patchadd was converted into a braindead elf executable [00:26:48] <gisburn> gdamore: suprisingly it is not much faster than the original [00:27:12] * gdamore wrote a "curses"-ish based menu UI around addclient, etc., including qualcomm-cutomizations for additional configuration data, in dtksh about 5-6 years ago [00:27:42] <gisburn> gdamore: it appears to be an 1:1 port to native code and ignores the optimisation in older ksh93-based patchadd versions. [00:27:43] <gdamore> most of patchadd's time is probably spent walking the filesystem, and doing regular expression stuff anyway. [00:27:50] *** MAzon is now known as mazon [00:27:55] <gisburn> gdamore: sun has a ksh93 version of patchadd [00:28:07] <gdamore> i knew about ksh88, not ksh93. [00:28:30] <gisburn> gdamore: it was much much faster but it was droped because a dependicy to dtksh was not "desired". [00:28:35] <gdamore> patchadd might need to run independent of the shell, in case ksh itself needs patched, i suppose [00:28:46] <gisburn> gdamore: no. [00:29:07] <richlowe> I'm not sure about patch*, but the package tools spent a whole lot of time dealing with /var/sadm/install/contents. [00:29:10] <gisburn> gdamore: once the shell is running you only have to make sure that the inode data remains untouched. [00:29:16] <richlowe> making that better will make a whole bunch of other stuff better too. [00:29:28] <richlowe> but since patch* have to update that too, I would expect the same to apply. [00:29:36] <richlowe> (unless patch* leave it with bad checksum and data info?) [00:30:02] <gdamore> who knows. the patch* scripts (haven't looked at the new .c code) were nearly impossible to grok. [00:30:11] <gisburn> richlowe: the "trick" of the ksh93 version of patchadd was to use an accociative array for caching instead of streaming all the data through zillions of filters [00:30:35] <gdamore> yes, that would run a lot faster, i'd think. [00:31:09] <gdamore> in general patching seems much faster now. but that might be because i'm no longer trying to install 200+ patches on a 32MB sparc classic running Solaris 2.5.1. :-) [00:31:14] <axisys> so any SMF trick i can use to boot into single user mode but have ssh started as well? [00:31:35] <gdamore> just run sshd manually? [00:31:40] <richlowe> gdamore: when is "now" in that context? [00:31:53] <richlowe> gdamore: I know that 8 and 9 still take *eons* to apply Recommended. [00:32:00] <axisys> gdamore: i dont have console access :-) [00:32:06] <axisys> gdamore: just ssh [00:32:11] <tsoome> axisys: just kill as many services as you can:) [00:32:12] <gdamore> hahaha. 2.5.1 in the context i gave would take ~24 hours to apply Recommended. [00:32:18] <gisburn> richlowe: 10 needs eons, too. [00:32:41] <richlowe> gdamore: yeah, but that's going to be on a very different system :) [00:32:42] <gdamore> a quick hack I made to use ksh builtins reduced that to ~12 hours. [00:32:46] <richlowe> gdamore: I'm thinking of a V100, and many, many hours. [00:32:52] <gisburn> richlowe: the solution was to eol all slower machines for sparc... =:-) [00:33:07] <richlowe> which combined with Sun refusing to support you if you install them multi-user, means either much, much, downtime , or liveupgrade. [00:33:27] <gdamore> or just don't patch. :-) [00:33:32] <gisburn> yep [00:33:35] <gisburn> my god [00:33:43] <gisburn> who wrote /usr/xpg4/bin/tr ? [00:33:48] <richlowe> which reminds me of the log(7D) problem someone was having earlier. [00:33:50] <gisburn> Where is the source for "tr" ? [00:33:56] <richlowe> if you installed the patch that did that in multi-user, don't do it again. [00:33:57] <gdamore> src/cmd/tr? [00:34:30] <gdamore> nope. NFI where tr's source is [00:34:59] <richlowe> $CLOSED/cmd/tr [00:35:12] <gisburn> IMO the author of "tr" should get a nice warm place in h*ll, too. [00:35:21] <gdamore> and wtf!? sed appears to be closed source too? [00:35:22] *** mnowak has quit IRC [00:35:27] <richlowe> gdamore: isn't it fun. [00:35:48] <richlowe> gdamore: at least you can go find out who owns them, and thus thinks they're valuable in some way :) [00:35:53] <gdamore> why not just pick up NetBSD's sed, if we can't get rights to release ours? [00:35:55] <gisburn> The thing runs zillions of mallocs for simple filtering and quazilions of seeks() [00:36:20] <richlowe> gdamore: when the test suites open, if they're exhaustive enough, it would be worth doing, yes. [00:36:22] <gisburn> gdamore: you can use ksh93 instead of sed [00:36:38] * gdamore smacks gisburn [00:36:41] <richlowe> gdamore: right now, testing it for compatibility with "what it's always done" wouldn't be so easy. [00:36:48] <axisys> tsoome: sh install_cluster prompts this http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/DkfHMp59.html [00:36:53] <gisburn> gdamore: HARDER! [00:36:56] <axisys> tsoome: what the hell is this passcode? [00:37:04] * gdamore smacks gisburn with baseball bat. [00:37:05] <tsoome> read readme [00:37:08] <gisburn> gdamore: HARDER! [00:37:17] *** mnowak has joined #opensolaris [00:37:26] * gdamore smacks gisburn with komodo dragon. [00:37:31] <tsoome> its written down there [00:37:37] * gisburn dies. [00:37:37] <richlowe> But yeah, anything that killed closed bins would no doubt be appreciated by all. [00:37:42] <richlowe> ... if they were well tested and compatible. [00:37:58] <tsoome> .oO or grep it [00:38:08] <gdamore> i gotta think it wouldn't be too hard to do some compatibility tests. [00:38:09] <axisys> newboot [00:38:16] <tsoome> bingo:) [00:38:18] <gisburn> richlowe: I think the ksh93 thing would kill lots of stuff... at least "test", "pwd", "sleep" etc. are replaced almost instantly. [00:38:39] <richlowe> gisburn: you and I talked about that before, it could trivially kill any command that is really 'alias.sh' [00:38:45] <richlowe> there's 17 of them, if I recall correctly. [00:38:52] <tsoome> the one who invented that, he was real joker... [00:38:52] <gisburn> richlowe: yep :-) [00:39:05] <gisburn> richlowe: actually 17+1 [00:39:08] *** OnkelSchorsch has joined #opensolaris [00:39:16] <gisburn> richlowe: /usr/bin/test and /usr/xpg4/bin/test [00:40:00] <gdamore> btw, i think my case for /usr/bin/id vs. /usr/xpg4/bin/id will go to fasttrack on monday. i've submitted all the materials, at least. [00:40:22] <gisburn> gdamore: ping! [00:40:28] <gdamore> (actually, i found some weirdness, like id -p -u is valid, but id -u -p is not. [00:40:34] <gdamore> ack. [00:40:41] <gisburn> gdamore: do you have time to help me with the "pwd" fasttrack, please ? [00:40:52] <gdamore> what do you need? [00:41:10] <gisburn> gdamore: fasttrack document... :-) [00:41:14] * gisburn writes the code. [00:41:31] <gdamore> there is no formal one, but hang on and i'll find a sample template that worked for me. [00:41:58] <gisburn> gdamore: the idea is to add the -L and -P options to /usr/bin/pwd [00:44:30] <gdamore> gisburn: http://garrett.damore.org/software/opensolaris/id.fasttrack [00:45:26] <gdamore> note that this fasttrack hasn't actually been submitted yet, but my sponsor has basically said it looked good. [00:45:49] <gdamore> its a bit different than my earlier kstat (which was accepted) fasttrack, but this is closer to what you are proposing, i think [00:45:59] <gisburn> gdamore: who is your sponsor ? don ? [00:46:39] <gdamore> yes, don cragun [00:47:12] <gisburn> gdamore: BTW. feel free to use shell-discuss at opensolaris dot org for such things. [00:48:50] <gdamore> tks. i wouldn't normally be getting involved with a CLI utility at all, but people were whining about all the POSIX features that were missing from various utilities. [00:49:07] <gdamore> so i did my fair share, picked up one, and did the work. (granted, I picked the _easiest_ of them, IMO.) [00:49:24] <gdamore> meanwhile, I muddle on with kernel stuff.... [00:52:00] <gdamore> whoa! wtf do we shipp "kill" as both an xpg4 and a historic version? is there some posix behavioral difference? [00:52:11] <gisburn> gdamore: no [00:52:22] <Gman> last call for entries in the opensolaris weekly news.. [00:52:24] <gisburn> gdamore: xpg4 uses /usr/xpg4/bin/sh [00:52:44] <gisburn> Gman: ksh93-integration prototype004 ready. [00:53:01] <gdamore> gisburn: so? who cares. i think the builtin commands for kill (and even the syntax for the basename command) is the same in POSIX and non-posix cases [00:53:12] <gisburn> gdamore: yes. [00:53:38] <gisburn> gdamore: it's the same thing as for /usr/xpg4/bin/test vs. /usr/bin/test [00:53:43] <Gman> gisburn, is it interesting? [00:53:48] *** mnowak has quit IRC [00:54:08] <gisburn> gdamore: someone thought it's neccesary to have xpg4 versions of the commands if they use the shell builtins. [00:54:23] <gisburn> Gman: only for those who want to test ksh93 right now. [00:54:37] <gisburn> Gman: more interesting is the new ksh93 update, but that is not ready yet [00:55:26] <Gman> gisburn, ok, doesn't seem milestone enough to include [00:55:34] <sahafeez> about to drag + drop on sxcr 50 w/vermillion 52. any bets? [00:55:52] <sahafeez> ha, cannot even log in. [00:55:56] <gisburn> sahafeez: you loose.

[00:58:51] <sahafeez> nice. the mouse moves but no icons on the desktop...i love jds [00:59:03] *** uebayasi has joined #opensolaris [00:59:19] *** mnowak has joined #opensolaris [00:59:26] <sahafeez> i am going back to ga on this box i think.. [00:59:34] * gdamore thinks there should be an announced plan to move all of /usr/xpg4/bin/* into /usr/bin, and to publish a legacy version seperately, in /usr/compat or something. announce plans for it in S11, do it in S12. [01:00:05] *** ProfMikey has quit IRC [01:01:22] *** ProfMikey has joined #opensolaris [01:02:12] *** dunc has quit IRC [01:02:20] <gdamore> OMG: look at /usr/xpg6/bin/xargs for a case where having a separate command utility is insane. [01:02:25] *** nwf has quit IRC [01:02:30] <richlowe> gdamore: that's a *lot* of stuff to test, and possibly change. [01:02:48] *** nwf has joined #opensolaris [01:02:58] <gdamore> richlowe: yes. but posix compatible by "default" would be a good thing, i think. [01:03:06] <richlowe> and I've looked at several things, there's many I'd really like to see the justifications for. [01:03:18] <richlowe> I just don't think bugging arc-discuss for my own amusement is a good idea :) [01:03:47] <Doc> there's a discussion group for the arc compression utility? coool! [01:04:06] <gdamore> haha. [01:04:52] <Gman> OpenSolaris Weekly News #35 - http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/opensolaris-discuss/2006-October/021302.html [01:05:17] <gdamore> having _two_ binaries on disk for xpg6/bin/xargs, that's nuts. the only difference is that XPG6 allows an empty string to be specified as an argument to -E, whereas the sun version errors out in that case. [01:06:03] <gdamore> i'm tempted to file an arc case for this one. its a PITA, but it will save 14K of disk space. ;-) [01:06:26] <Doc> compression is good like what [01:07:07] <richlowe> gdamore: the issue with this stuff is the chicken and egg problem. [01:07:21] <gdamore> ? [01:07:30] <richlowe> *We* can't file fasttracks. [01:07:33] <richlowe> we need a sponsor to. [01:07:42] <richlowe> which means having a sponsor before you know whether the work can be done... [01:07:57] <richlowe> plocher keeps ducking out of that stuff in each proposal re the ARC stuff, and people keep calling him on it. [01:08:01] <richlowe> eventually, maybe, it'll get done. [01:08:15] <richlowe> (not only an arc sponsor, but an os.o sponsor...) [01:08:28] <gdamore> yeah, the dual sponsorship thing is a real PITA. [01:08:51] <richlowe> it's not so much the duality, but the fact that there's certain cases where you're stuck in limbo with it. [01:09:25] <Doc> yes, but how else do you suggest (at this stage) we could do it? [01:09:39] <Doc> we really dont want just anyone filing fast-tracks [01:09:40] *** ProfMikey has quit IRC [01:09:49] <richlowe> Doc: you need an arc licensees *anyway*. [01:09:52] <richlowe> Doc: even internal people. [01:09:58] <richlowe> 'licensee' [01:10:05] <gdamore> i can't believe that someone bothered to go thru the process of getting man page changes, and source changes, just to add a new feature required for POSIX instead of just adding the behavior to /bin/xargs. [01:10:33] <Doc> nfi.. never done arc stuff, although my name seems to appear on a fair few of them for some reason [01:10:39] <gdamore> Doc: I'd be willing to act as an external ARC intern, if it were possible for me to. [01:10:56] <richlowe> Doc: it's not a problem with the sponsorship model, per se. (that's what I was explaining, baddly, to gdamore), but the fact that so many other things Don't Work for us, that we need sponsors or similar for trivial tasks. [01:11:09] <richlowe> Hell, I have to ask Glynn just to add me to a CR interest list, or update a CR I filed. [01:11:21] <richlowe> in theory, that would require 'a sponsor', or the like, not just an @sun person willing. :) [01:11:26] <gisburn> gdamore: ---> /msg [01:12:00] * gisburn kicks gdamore that he starts to register himself. [01:12:05] <richlowe> Doc: and yes, you do want "just anyone" filing fast tracks. [01:12:14] <richlowe> Doc: in much the same way that the bug triage-queue stuff is foolish. [01:12:21] <richlowe> it does nothing but demonstrate a complete lack of trust. [01:12:22] <gdamore> how tf do I "register" myself? [01:12:27] <richlowe> and frankly, makes you all look like asses. :) [01:13:06] <Doc> trust is bad, m'kay? [01:13:10] <gdamore> bug triage makes sense for "unauthorized" people. but known good external submitters should be able to skip triage, IMO. [01:13:22] <gdamore> that would require authentication, though, to. [01:13:24] <jmcp_> gdamore: /msg nickserv register (password) [01:13:25] <gdamore> too. [01:13:35] <richlowe> gdamore: so far I've had one CR clased duplicate of a CR I couldn't see any detail for. [01:13:44] <richlowe> gdamore: two recategorized because I asked them to be, because the cats I needed weren't available. [01:13:49] <richlowe> and the rest put exactly where I wanted them, as best as I know. [01:13:57] <richlowe> But yet they "need" to be triaged? [01:14:03] *** ProfMikey has joined #opensolaris [01:14:10] <gdamore> gisburn, i registered gdamore a long time ago. i don't understand the problem [01:14:18] <richlowe> gdamore: you have to identify to nickserv. [01:14:23] <richlowe> gdamore: /m nickserv identify <password> [01:14:32] <gdamore> hmm... i thought gaim did that automatically for me. [01:14:51] <gisburn> gdamore: no. [01:14:51] <richlowe> it'd actually be easier for Roland to '/m nickserv set unfiltered on', it's a stupid feature anyway :) [01:15:10] <Doc> i wore a fake Tag for 3 years, then when it started leaving a rash on my hand i bought a real one which is so far up to about 9 years [01:15:13] <Doc> blah [01:15:14] <gdamore> okay, well, i'm "identified" now. [01:15:20] <gisburn> richlowe: well, it keeps the spammers away. [01:15:36] <richlowe> gisburn: obviously not. [01:15:40] <Doc> the fact things are not visable is a hard problem ot solve [01:15:46] <richlowe> gisburn: I turned it off the moment I saw how, and haven't had any problems. [01:15:55] *** doownek has quit IRC [01:15:59] <richlowe> Doc: I know, that was just an example of the cases CR's have been triaged somehow other than as filed. [01:16:00] <Doc> its part history, part ppl not knowing what they are doing (and by that i mean sun ppl), and part security [01:16:36] <gdamore> richlowe: clearly they need a way to get some external people access to the bug database. the ability to add comments, submit new bugs, and see the outstanding bugs from a real-time database would be nice. [01:17:40] *** doownek has joined #opensolaris [01:17:53] <richlowe> gdamore: honestly, I have doubts that will happen anytime soon. [01:18:05] <richlowe> not least because any attempt to talk about the problems with this, just leads to a "we know", and nothing changing. [01:18:10] <richlowe> or in some cases a promise of change that never happens. [01:18:12] * gdamore volunteers to be part of the early beta test for trusted external user access to the database. [01:18:35] <richlowe> gdamore: there's no coordination via your employer for such things? [01:18:52] <Doc> blah.. just wait until we make a profit, and then thethings are more likely to occur faster :) [01:19:08] <richlowe> Doc: it's the whole appearance of honesty and trust thing. [01:19:16] <richlowe> Doc: actually saying "We're screwed and can't fix that" is one thing. [01:19:17] <gdamore> not really. [01:19:23] <richlowe> ignoring the problem, or pretending it's been fixed is just outright not cool. [01:19:30] <richlowe> 'being' not 'been' [01:19:44] <gdamore> i have engineering contacts at sun, but i still don't have any "special" access other than NDA source code and a few engineering names... [01:19:47] <Doc> things are changing, although ill admit slowly [01:20:03] *** piwi has joined #opensolaris [01:20:06] <richlowe> when I explained what was "in the process" of being done, (and has been for nearly a year) last, the response I got was "Wow, that's awful" [01:20:07] <Doc> the fact that you can even be added to the interest list for aCR is new, and took some real effort to do [01:20:13] <richlowe> ... but it's still not done. [01:20:41] <Gman> Doc, have you seen the output? it's depressing [01:20:57] <richlowe> the notification stuff is not exactly depressing. [01:20:58] <Doc> i havent [01:20:59] <richlowe> it's hilarious. [01:21:05] <richlowe> just in a very very dark way. [01:21:12] * Gman suspects the real effort went into subb'ing out the email addresses with 'xxxx' [01:21:13] <gdamore> richlowe: you should have seen how close to impossible it was to get any changes into the _old_ bugtraq+ system. i don't know if the people who maintain it are any different now, but 4 years ago the system was totally stagnant. [01:21:18] <richlowe> Gman: not just email address! [01:21:21] <richlowe> Gman: *BUILD NUMBERS* [01:21:23] <Gman> yeah :/ [01:21:36] <Doc> gdamore: thats why it was replaced [01:21:43] <richlowe> Gman: CR i fixed last week, the notification I got when Danek marked it closed told me 'Fixed In Build xx', 'Integrated in Build xx' [01:21:48] <Doc> bugster is (apparently) much easier for them to make changes in [01:21:58] <richlowe> because you know, you can't possibly trust me whit the build my own code went back to... ;) [01:22:08] <Doc> ok, that sounds like a bug [01:22:10] <gdamore> so what's the hold up in this, is it just getting legal to agree? [01:22:14] <richlowe> Doc: no, it's intentional. [01:22:15] <Gman> richlowe, heh, nice [01:22:16] <richlowe> Doc: just fucking moronic. [01:22:27] <richlowe> sorry, I should have worded that better. [01:22:32] <Doc> hiding the build number is intentionaal? [01:22:45] <Doc> you sure it was a nevada build, not an s10 build or something like that? [01:23:01] <Gman> karyn's reply to my 'oh man' mail about b.o.o said that she probably should have added a 'this won't really help you' warning :( [01:24:03] *** coffman has quit IRC [01:24:41] *** Triskelios has quit IRC [01:25:22] <richlowe> Doc: certain. [01:25:59] <richlowe> Gman: if they know it's useless, why let it happen that way? [01:26:15] <Gman> richlowe, because they were more hopeful to begin with? [01:26:16] *** Godsey has joined #opensolaris [01:26:18] <richlowe> Gman: as you know, the Sun people I've shown that stuff to have all been as surprised as I was, so it's clearly not common knowledge. [01:26:32] *** Triskelios has joined #opensolaris [01:26:33] <Doc> of course its not - we get the real data :) [01:26:51] <richlowe> Doc: yeah, but you'd think tonic folk would know that we were getting junk. :) [01:27:23] *** Triskelios has quit IRC [01:28:17] <delewis> richlowe: are you referring to the email that's sent out after you submit a bug report that's basically a recitation of the information you submitted within the bug report, and afterwards, you fail to get any more communication for the bug unless someone within Sun explicitly contacts you? [01:29:16] * delewis obviously missed the bulk of the conversation [01:29:16] <richlowe> delewis: no, that mail is the entire set of information stored in the CR [01:29:24] <richlowe> because at that point it *clearly* can't be confidential. [01:29:36] <richlowe> However, if you're on the interest list for a CR, the information sent to you on modification is worse than useless. [01:29:40] <richlowe> *everything* of value is masked out. [01:29:48] <delewis> interesting [01:30:09] <gdamore> once upon a time, there used to be a way for bugs to be marked as "confidential", so that the data couldn't be shared with partners, etc. i don't know if bugster still has the ability. [01:30:16] <richlowe> so far the only information I've had passed through intact, are state changes, are additions to Related Bugs. [01:30:29] *** Triskelios has joined #opensolaris [01:30:37] <richlowe> gdamore: it doesn't, they've said. [01:30:47] <richlowe> rather, it does, via various means. [01:30:54] <richlowe> but not in a way that's useful. [01:30:58] <gdamore> what i'd really, really like, is a way for some set of vetted community members to get a more complete access to the database/tool. that tool could strip out/hide confidential bugs. [01:31:05] <richlowe> if you mark them as security related, they're hidden *entirely*. [01:31:14] <richlowe> but there's no way to flag specific parts of a bug as confidential, yet others as visible. [01:31:28] <richlowe> gdamore: I agree with the principle, but it's a broken idea. [01:31:30] <gdamore> it used to be, IIRC, that the "comments" field was always confidential. [01:31:34] <richlowe> "vetted community members" is not enough. [01:31:38] <richlowe> gdamore: That is still the case. [01:31:42] <gdamore> it would be a good start. [01:31:45] <richlowe> gdamore: except Evaluation is also hidden. [01:31:55] <richlowe> and many other things, some of them with no hope of confidentiality. [01:31:57] <richlowe> just oversight. [01:32:05] <gdamore> Evaluation should not be confidential (except for security bugs) [01:32:11] *** piwi has quit IRC [01:32:16] <richlowe> it's confidential because it *may* contain snippets of closed code. [01:32:31] <gdamore> oh, crap. gotta love that. [01:34:03] <gdamore> all the more reason to remove/replace or open as much of the closed code as possible [01:35:07] <delewis> well, things are getting better, albeit slowly -- we've at least got a real-time mirror of the internal Teamware ON repo now. [01:36:01] <delewis> but I also hate to say it -- this situation is sound more and more synonymous with Apple and the OpenDarwin project [01:36:38] <delewis> (i.e. getting essential parts closed, miniscule community access to internal bug databases, `were Apple goes, the community follows', etc.) [01:36:47] <delewis> s/were/where/ [01:37:49] <richlowe> delewis: it's far, far better than what apple have. [01:38:06] <richlowe> there aren't actually many *essential* parts closed. [01:38:07] <delewis> richlowe: no doubt. [01:38:19] <richlowe> there's two sparc platforms, and the i18n bits of libc, that are 'essential' [01:38:24] <delewis> richlowe: well, I think there's some varying opinions on that [01:38:26] *** dunc has joined #opensolaris [01:38:30] <delewis> especially for SPARC users/developers. [01:38:31] <richlowe> there's i18n bits of libc, and the sparc dissassembler that are required to build. [01:38:50] <richlowe> delewis: I forget the sparc platforms in question, sadly. [01:39:00] <richlowe> ents is one, I forget the other. [01:39:09] <delewis> I suppose the situation is much better for us -- Apple kept bits closed that hendered the build process by not making them available. [01:39:22] <delewis> Sun has at least made the closed bits available in binary form for re-distribution, etc. [01:39:26] <richlowe> delewis: apple kept bits closed because they wanted them closed, not because they weren't able to open them. [01:39:32] <richlowe> I would sincerely hope that Sun wouldn't even try that stunt. [01:39:36] <delewis> richlowe: true [01:39:49] <gdamore> we (the community and Sun both) can do better, but it will take some more time. [01:39:56] <Doc> hmm.. Oracle is going to offer RedHat Support [01:39:57] <delewis> "We can't let anyone see our APM/ACPI code for the Macbook!" [01:39:59] <Doc> is, support for the OS itself [01:40:31] <Godsey> Doc: much speculation that it's to drive RH shares down for buyout :) [01:40:36] <Doc> err.. ie even [01:40:46] <gdamore> in the meantime, i recommend a new keyword, "closed" be added to the database, and make all new bugs default to "false". Then bugs could automatically be opened up to "vetted users" based on that keyword. [01:40:57] <delewis> well, they aren't providing support for Red Hat (at least I don't they are) [01:41:06] <Doc> i would love a new keyboard right now... this spanish one is driving me batty [01:41:07] <delewis> they are providing support for their own Red Hat clone [01:42:08] <gdamore> Doc: you can probably get a type 6 _cheap_ from Sun. If they still have them. [01:42:20] <delewis> which means customers will have access to Red Hat updates, but also the Oracle-RH-clone-specific ones. [01:42:29] <Doc> i can get type 7s free, why would i want a type 6? :) [01:42:42] <gdamore> so quit yer bitchin' then. :-) [01:42:47] <Doc> unfortunately i dont know how to order consumables in Peru :) [01:43:16] <gdamore> that's what SunIT is for. :-) [01:43:23] <richlowe> the type7 is real nice. [01:43:33] <richlowe> I haven't been this happy with a keyboard in a long long time. [01:43:36] * gdamore would like to see the type 7. [01:43:38] <delewis> richlowe: Type 5 quality, at least? [01:43:45] * delewis plans on ordering one shortly [01:43:58] <richlowe> I'm not sure if it's on a par with the 5, but it's light years better than the 6. [01:44:01] <gdamore> the type 5 keyboards were _soo_ nice. [01:44:14] *** jerome__ has joined #opensolaris [01:44:19] <gdamore> the 5c, otoh, was pretty much the same as the type6, IMO [01:44:29] <delewis> slightly better [01:44:41] <delewis> the chassis for the 5c was better than the 6 chassis [01:44:46] <delewis> (which actually bends) [01:44:46] <jerome__> agreed [01:44:51] <gdamore> marginally. [01:44:54] <delewis> feedback was similar to the Type 6, though [01:45:03] <Doc> only problem is that my type 7 mouse started to squeak [01:45:10] * delewis is typing on a Type 6 now [01:45:11] <delewis> :-( [01:45:14] <boyd> Good grief it must be time for the keyboard conversation again. [01:45:17] * boyd looks at watch [01:45:18] <jerome__> is there any possible way to get a sun 5c keyboard on a peecee? [01:45:18] <gdamore> haha. [01:45:28] <gdamore> not without magic hardware conversion. [01:45:34] <jerome__> k [01:45:37] <jerome__> that's what I thought [01:45:40] <gdamore> sun 5c is custom serial hardware. [01:45:44] <delewis> there are Type 5<->PS2 converters. [01:45:47] <jerome__> that's my understanding [01:45:48] <jerome__> cool [01:45:51] <delewis> and Type 5<->USB converters [01:45:52] <jerome__> time to grab one [01:45:54] <Doc> yup, sun even sold them for a while [01:45:54] <boyd> They're quite expensive IIRC [01:45:58] <delewis> yes [01:46:01] <delewis> about $60 USD [01:46:02] <gdamore> i thought it let you plug a ps2 into a type 5 port [01:46:03] <jerome__> wow [01:46:10] <gdamore> not the other way around? [01:46:15] <Doc> i think we stole all but 1 of the ones in our warehouse :) [01:46:23] <delewis> gdamore: I think there are some for the other way around [01:46:24] <boyd> Doc: Bastards [01:46:26] <Doc> anyway, i suppose i should be getting to the airport [01:46:33] <delewis> but of course, they're a bit more than an actual adapter :-) [01:46:36] <boyd> Have a nice flight [01:46:41] <delewis> there's an actual box with some electrical circuitry in it [01:46:48] <Godsey> one of my kvms came w/ a bunch of those adaptors (to ps/2) [01:46:50] <jerome__> Dowhere are you goin [01:46:53] <boyd> You can get a schematic on the net somewhere [01:47:25] *** jerome__ is now known as soylent [01:47:39] *** Triskelios has quit IRC [01:48:22] <boyd> AARRGHHH my freaking telco!

[01:51:43] <gdamore> actually, the Ultrabook IIi keyboard is even _nicer_ than the type 5, IMO. unfortunately, we switched to a cheaper design in newer laptops that I find far less pleasant [01:53:22] <boyd> Sun kbd to USB would be nicer..

[02:52:19] <gisburn> no, just "%H" because the libcmd/date.c code uses ...%H%... which causes some headcaches for April. [02:52:36] <gisburn> richlowe: I'd like to make a patch for David Korn to fix that in the upstream source [02:52:41] <richlowe> ah, ok.

[03:06:16] <Gman> yeah, it's just silly though [03:07:17] <gisburn> I guess these are the kernel packages for the nsasnifferbotd project (NSA sniffer bot deamon which will become mandatory on all systems that RIIA can check for illegal bittorrent data on your box) [03:07:50] * sparc-kly is away: ZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZz [03:11:39] *** swa has joined #opensolaris [03:13:49] * gdamore wonders if the only way that bugs get moved from triage is if Linda Bernal personally handles them. [03:14:05] * gdamore thinks that there should be more automation this system. [03:14:23] <richlowe> gdamore: no, there's a group of folks that move them out of triage, not just Linda. [03:14:36] <richlowe> it used to be that the notification you got was Cc'd to a list of folks. [03:14:46] <richlowe> I'm not sure if that's still the case, of if they're Bcc'd now, or what. [03:15:16] <gdamore> it looks bcc'd now. [03:15:17] <Gman> that is still the case [03:15:19] <richlowe> you get the notification whenever Linda sends it though. [03:15:20] <richlowe> literally. [03:15:32] <Gman> some people have added themselves to the interest list for the triage-queue [03:15:36] <gdamore> ah, that's why. linda is the only way i get to know about changes. great. [03:15:37] <richlowe> which means you should never file a CR between about 5pm Friday, and 10am the next monday. [03:15:45] <richlowe> because you won't get the ID at the very *least* until monday, and sometimes never. [03:15:55] * richlowe is still waiting on 6487487 for instance. [03:16:02] <Gman> what do you guys need? [03:16:05] <gdamore> i just got mail from linda, so she must work in another timeszone, or somesuch [03:16:15] <richlowe> Yeah, it seems odd I know the ID of a CR I'm still waiting for the ID off. [03:16:23] <richlowe> but I know it because Gman kicks ass, not because the system doesn't suck :) [03:16:27] <gdamore> e.g. 6487387. [03:16:38] <twincest> gman++ [03:16:43] <gdamore> heh. [03:16:55] <richlowe> gdamore: *just* got it? [03:16:59] <gdamore> yep. [03:17:04] <richlowe> wonder when/if mine will arrive then. [03:17:12] <richlowe> it's the "if" part that's why weekends are a bad idea :) [03:17:13] <gdamore> at 6:08, according to the headers [03:17:18] <Gman> gdamore, you need a bug id? [03:17:25] <gdamore> not especially. [03:17:31] <Gman> ahh, you got it [03:18:04] * Gman really doesn't mind being a bug bunny if it helps people out - just ping [03:18:30] <gdamore> thanks Gman. I might take advantage of that in the future. bugids are useful when contacting e.g. arc-discuss [03:18:39] <Gman> ok [03:18:57] <gdamore> wow. she's working now. just got another one for the xargs bug I filed earlier today. [03:19:32] <Gman> i doubt it ;) [03:19:47] <gdamore> heh. weird deja vu. [03:19:56] <Gman> the bugs get automatically put into the triage queue from bugs.opensolaris.org [03:19:59] <gdamore> but anyway, i notice my e-mail address is listed in Hook6. [03:20:01] <Gman> since it uses a mail interface [03:20:05] <Gman> right [03:20:07] <richlowe> gdamore: with arc-discuss, you want case#'s, not IDs, generally. [03:20:14] <Gman> then people hand triage it out of the queue into the appropriate area [03:20:16] <richlowe> gdamore: in which case, opensolaris.org/os/community/arc/caselog, and grep. [03:20:26] <gdamore> i know i need case numbers, but i need bug numbers to record in the initial case submission. [03:20:39] <richlowe> Oh, you meant PSARC in general. [03:20:42] <Gman> or again, ask me [03:20:49] <richlowe> sorry, the way John has the aliases set up is so confusing I lost track. [03:21:05] <Gman> [though publically bitching about the lack of tools is also good] [03:21:13] <richlowe> hopefully, the discussion around 2006/569 will fix that somewhat. [03:21:22] <Godsey> spawrq: make it to 15k yet? :) [03:21:37] <richlowe> gdamore: you don't actually need a CR ID in the arc paperwork. :) [03:22:19] <spawrq> 11500 [03:22:42] <Godsey> well beyond where I failed [03:22:43] <gdamore> richlowe: thanks. but it is useful in some cases to have the bug number.

[19:57:33] *** nwf has joined #opensolaris [19:57:35] <stevel> sahafeez: no from packages [19:57:47] <stevel> richlowe: there was explanation given to the submitter for 6473542 [19:57:57] <gdamore> i do think that it should not have been closed, but marked "in progress" and closed once 2.16 was integrated. but that's largely administrivia. [19:58:11] <sahafeez> stevel: and were can i get those? i have not been able to drag and drop for like 10 builds. [19:58:31] <richlowe> stevel: well, sahafeez sure didn't know, and he said above he's filed 10 of those, so far... [19:58:38] <myrkraverk> gdamore: admini-stra-tivia or admins-trivia? [19:58:39] <stevel> sahafeez: http://opensolaris.org/os/project/jds/ [19:58:49] <stevel> or more specifically: http://dlc.sun.com/osol/jds/downloads/current/ [19:58:56] <gdamore> sahafeez: may i recommend "pkg-get -i xfce4" :-) [19:58:58] <stevel> sahafeez: what are the 10 CR's you filed? [19:59:04] <stevel> lemme look them up to see what happened with them [19:59:06] <sahafeez> thanks, and richlowe, thanks [19:59:25] <sahafeez> stevel i would have to look it up - i only filed 4 ;) [19:59:31] <sahafeez> and one today [19:59:44] <sahafeez> let me see if i can find them [20:00:09] <stevel> ah. 6473202? [20:00:13] <gdamore> stevel: may i suggest that the bug be reopened and the evaluation changed to note that the bug should only be closed when the fix is integrated (perhaps by committing 2.16?) [20:00:17] <sahafeez> stevel: ok. the link to vermillion has that same bug! sorry. tried it yesterday [20:00:42] <sahafeez> i did a fresh install of 50 then v52 and it has that same bug. [20:00:45] <stevel> sahafeez: what nevada build are you running it on? [20:01:23] <stevel> hrm. i'm running on snv_51 with vermillion_52 and i can drag/drop okay [20:01:45] <sahafeez> on sparc ? [20:02:14] <gdamore> this could be a Sun Ray bug, btw. [20:02:54] <sahafeez> well i did a new install on snv_50 on my u80 last night. then did the vermillion_52. same issue as listed in my bug. [20:03:03] <gdamore> It isn't entirely clear to me that Sun Ray is supported as is on Nevada. [20:03:12] <gdamore> on the console? [20:03:21] <sahafeez> click - pointer changes - and thats it. have to ssh and kill natulius [20:03:36] <sahafeez> stevel: are you on sparc or x86 [20:04:00] * gdamore will test this out later today, right now his sparc machine is running jumpstart... [20:04:15] <richlowe> I've seen it on the console on sparc. [20:04:36] <richlowe> it's part of why I still have this crappy x86 machine on my desk. :) [20:04:49] <sahafeez> btw, is it just me or is the bug db slow today [20:04:51] <gdamore> heh. to me this sounds like just one more reason not to run gnome. :-) [20:05:26] <sahafeez> well, i did an install on a x86 p3 last night of snv_50 to use as a jumpstart server and drag and drop works so it is a sparc only thing. [20:06:10] <gdamore> IMO, that's highly relevant information that should be tracked in the bug [20:06:42] <gdamore> Both Sun Ray and sparc use Xsun, so it could be an Xsun bug. [20:06:56] <gdamore> it would be instructive to know if this happens on Sun Ray with x86. [20:07:22] <alanc> the continued existince of Xsun is a bug [20:07:41] <gdamore> alanc++ [20:07:46] <oxygene> hmm.. gnustep has some bugs wrt XSHM.. should I just leave shm support disabled, or is it highly likely that it's gnustep's fault (ie. can be fixed on our end) instead of sunray's (no proper xshm support or whatever)? [20:08:26] <alanc> I think Sun Ray supports XSHM [20:09:33] <Symm> anyone here v6 connected who can test something for me? [20:10:15] <gdamore> alanc: does Sun Ray on x86 use Xsun? [20:10:18] <alanc> yes [20:10:25] <alanc> (for now) [20:10:26] <gdamore> that's what I was afraid of... [20:11:10] <alanc> we're working with them on getting both SPARC & x86 off Xsun - they would like Xv & Xrandr support, but porting is going to take some work/time [20:11:45] <Symm> hrm, if someone has v6, can they test and check to see if http://mozilla.mirror.ac.za is connectable via v6, wanna make sure I've got my v6 configs right under solaris [20:12:20] <Godsey> sxcr dies w/ can't find windowing software :P [20:12:51] *** tmarble has joined #opensolaris [20:13:07] <alanc> I really want to find who in our tech writers decided that "windowing software" was the best way to describe the window system [20:13:12] <alanc> it just sounds so wrong [20:13:31] <alanc> they do it in the release notes too - "New X Windowing Features" [20:14:20] <Symm> hrm [20:14:37] <Symm> heh tomorrow I sign the contract for premium support for all my sun systems [20:14:57] <Symm> once I got that I can bug sun about this registration buggerup [20:15:23] *** Fish- has joined #opensolaris [20:15:48] <g4lt-U60> would you prefer "new OpenWindowing features" [20:16:07] * Godsey develops shaken baby syndrome [20:17:13] *** mrdeviant has joined #opensolaris [20:19:34] <Godsey> tmp/root/usr/X11 and /usr/openwin are missing [20:20:34] <Godsey> I guess I can do centos+vmware server+solaris!

[21:22:31] <Gman> could do [21:22:44] <Gman> it's probably the more appropriate setting [21:22:55] <Gman> when we were triaging, we had to be pretty ruthless [21:22:56] <gdamore> yes :-) [21:23:26] <Gman> and wontfix was probably a quick [incorrect] option [21:23:32] <sommerfeld> well, if it's known to be fixed in newer bits but you're not sure what change fixed it, it should end up "closed/cannot reproduce" [21:23:40] *** ProfMikey has quit IRC [21:23:54] <gdamore> integration of gnome 2.16 will fix it. that's pretty identifiable, IMO [21:24:29] <gdamore> although i'm happy with CNR, as long as that is true in the current released build. :-) [21:25:57] <sommerfeld> closing a real bug that someone cares about with WNF is tantamount to painting a target on yourself.

[22:21:00] <gdamore> zzz..... waiting for my system to finish install 10 06/06 [22:21:15] <gdamore> yeah, the ultra 2s were a bit beefy. really, really nice systems, though. [22:21:24] <delewis> yeah, I like where the hard drives are [22:21:29] * gdamore fondly remembers his old system. [22:21:35] <delewis> one of the few desktop systems I've seen that are designed properly [22:22:01] <delewis> it's a bit cramped, but most systems that try to achieve the same amount of compactness make *everything* inaccessible unless you remove everything but that :-) [22:22:03] <gdamore> i was really annoyed, when i left qualcomm to go work for sun, i had to trade in my Ultra 2 for a SS5. A _major_ downgrade. [22:22:08] <jamesd> delewis, check out the power supply.. the size of the wires coming out of it are down right scary... [22:22:15] <delewis> jamesd: I noticed [22:22:20] <delewis> it's *huge* [22:22:28] <delewis> but I wouldn't expect anything less from a system that uses 2xUltraSPARC-IIs [22:22:44] <delewis> gdamore: least it wasn't an Ultra 5 or Ultra 10 :-) [22:22:57] <gdamore> heh. i "upgraded" from the SS5 to an Ultra 5. [22:23:03] <gdamore> (some months later...) [22:23:04] <delewis> oh, god. [22:23:10] <delewis> I would've kept the SS5 [22:23:13] <delewis> and told IT to screw themselves. [22:23:17] <gdamore> well, the ultra 5 did run a bit faster. [22:23:28] <delewis> even faster when doing IO? [22:23:30] <gdamore> most of my compiles were across NFS and didn't hit local storage. [22:23:33] <delewis> ah [22:23:52] <gdamore> i still miss that U2 though. [22:23:59] <delewis> Ip [22:24:01] <delewis> er [22:24:21] <gdamore> the weird IO stalls on my Ultra 20 remind of the Ultra 5 problems. fast CPU, but f*cked up IO [22:24:29] <delewis> I plan on dropping a QFE in it and replacing my aging Packard Bell (PII-equivalent) that serves as my router, httpd, bind, ftpd, smtpd, pop3d, etc. [22:24:49] <delewis> gdamore: I still don't think Solaris has quite got IDE and SATA down yet (compared to SCSI and FC) [22:24:52] <gdamore> kinda beefy for a router, dontcha think? [22:25:02] <delewis> that may have changed lately, but it wasn't the case when FCS was released. [22:25:17] <gdamore> how is SATA in Nevada? is it robust enough to use for NAS? [22:25:18] <delewis> gdamore: well, I plan on running some beefy services -- JDS Communication server [22:25:29] <richlowe> gdamore: Well, there's thumper...

[22:26:08] <richlowe> I think SATA behaves better with sata framework drivers, than in compat. [22:26:09] <richlowe> gdamore: yeah. [22:26:35] <gdamore> hmm.... i'm not sure if I have real PATA drives or if they are SATA running in compat on this U20 [22:26:40] <delewis> I mentioned the other night that I'm paying about $300/month to keep 5 systems turned on (including my Blade 1000 and pSeries 24/7), keep the house at a consistent 68F, and standard appliances. [22:26:43] <sickness> it's not so easy to find a supported controller :/ [22:26:59] <delewis> (and to keep the house at 68F requires the air conditioner run almost 24/7) [22:27:30] <gdamore> delewis: thats not so bad. Leaving my Bullfrog 2 (dual US3i system, 300W power supply) on 24x7 added about $200 to my power bill [22:27:43] <delewis> gdamore: nuts!

[22:33:55] <libkeiser> wow. power must be cheap here in central PA. I pull ~15A @240 24/7 for my home testbed, and still pay considerably less than 200/mo.

[22:34:40] <libkeiser> yeah, and the p680, p640, 3 e450's, etc. [22:34:53] <gdamore> the nice thing about the via is that i can build the whole system to draw ~30W.

[22:35:13] <gdamore> including dual SATA drives and dual gigE [22:35:48] <gdamore> libkeiser: you must be paying like industrial rates for power. :-) [22:35:53] <sickness> the via troughtput is so shitty that I wouldn't use it for more than a 1280/256 adsl line [22:36:06] <sickness> let alone fileserving!

[22:45:59] <delewis> gdamore: yes, it's UFS-formatted. [22:46:02] <delewis> UFS is endian-dependent. [22:46:27] <delewis> (it's better than it used to be, though -- the install media used to have an actual UFS slice) [22:46:34] <gdamore> i remember that. [22:46:48] <delewis> which made cross-platform Jumpstarts a pita :-) [22:47:33] <richlowe> sparc install media still kinda does, just on the DVD image it's duplicated on hsfs. [22:47:40] <gdamore> okay, that worked, thanks. [22:47:52] <gdamore> which leaves me with a new mystery. [22:48:23] <gdamore> namely, why did my Via C3 laptop (256 MB, 1GHz) hang trying to netinstall. It definitely has an rtls 8139 ethernet [22:48:38] <gdamore> it hung right after displaying the SunOS copyright banner [22:48:50] <gdamore> i guess maybe I need to try to debug with kadb. [22:50:57] *** sommerfeld has quit IRC [22:51:00] <richlowe> not much you can do if rtls itself is at fault. [22:51:33] *** sommerfeld has joined #opensolaris [22:51:33] *** ChanServ sets mode: +o sommerfeld [22:51:56] <gdamore> i don't know that rtls is at fault. i thought maybe the problem was an unsupported NIC. but its just rtls. so now I need to use the kernel debugger to find out what is happening [22:52:23] <richlowe> You sure it's not just a matter of tossing an extra pciid in there and rebuild in the miniroot? [22:52:58] <richlowe> I mean, I know you just went to all that to mount the miniroot, but you never did say how if the right ID was there :) [22:56:23] <gdamore> that was the whole reason i checked the miniroot. [22:56:39] <gdamore> the pci id on the hardware (verified with NetBSD) is standard 10ec,8139 (for RTLS 8139) [22:57:41] <gdamore> i was sort of hopeful that it was something stupid like a PCI id. now fixing it will require real debug. Since Solaris more or less doesn't support systems with < 512MB anyway, I'm kind of not sure if I want to expend the energy [22:58:14] <gdamore> (and yes, I _am_ bitter about the 512MB requirement for memory) [22:58:14] <richlowe> it runs in 256M [22:58:23] <gdamore> this laptop has 256M [22:58:32] <richlowe> JDS is not entirely pleasant, alternatives aren't bad at all. [22:58:58] <gdamore> heh. i would only run CDE on the machine. it was mostly going to be used as a test, nothing else. [22:59:11] <gdamore> which is part of why i'm not entirely sure its worth debugging [22:59:26] <gdamore> (just another odd piece of hardware I have hanging around) [23:00:32] <Error_404> ramen + udon = ramudon... the holy month [23:01:55] <axisys> how do i get xfce4 in the dtlogin.. i installed it using pkg-get .. but i dont see it in options list to pick from as a preferred window manager [23:02:01] <axisys> on sol 10 u2 on u20 [23:02:04] *** coffman has joined #opensolaris [23:03:05] *** _william_ has joined #opensolaris [23:03:41] <_william_> hi all [23:04:36] <gdamore> pkg-get -i xfce_dtlogin [23:04:39] *** Jiko has joined #opensolaris [23:05:09] *** nwf has quit IRC [23:05:13] <gdamore> axisys: this is how I did it on the same configuration (except s10 03/05) [23:06:17] <axisys> gdamore: i actuall just found it too and ran that.. and restarted .. still dont see in the dtlogin options [23:08:18] <gdamore> hmmm... maybe i had to do something else, lemme look [23:09:08] *** hspaans has joined #opensolaris [23:10:28] <gdamore> what are the contents of your /etc/dt/config directory? do you see CSWxfce files? [23:10:34] <axisys> gdamore: i am removing the CSWxfcedtlogin [23:10:37] <axisys> will reinstall [23:10:54] <axisys> let me look [23:11:25] <axisys> i will after reinstall [23:14:06] <axisys> still dont see it.. let me check the config dir [23:14:31] <gdamore> hmm... i modified my Xinitrc.CSWxfce so that the last line includes ssh-agent. [23:22:01] <axisys> gdamore: i have that file too.. but how come it does show up as an option.. hmm [23:22:14] *** nwf has joined #opensolaris [23:23:21] <gdamore> you need /etc/dt/config/C/Xresources.d/Xresources.CSWxfce [23:23:33] <gdamore> the dtlogin app looks for files in that directory [23:23:36] *** gisburn has joined #opensolaris [23:23:58] <gisburn> Good morning! :-) [23:24:01] *** fik has joined #opensolaris [23:24:16] <axisys> gdamore: checked.. its there too [23:24:19] * gdamore throws a komodo dragon in gisburns general direction. :-) [23:24:35] <gdamore> (no particular reason.) [23:24:54] <gdamore> axisys, are you using dtlogin or gdm? :-) [23:25:40] <axisys> gdamore: hmm.. i thought dtlogin.. now i am confused [23:25:58] <gdamore> better check, because i'm running out of ideas. :-) [23:26:25] <gdamore> i confess i've not tested this on s10 u2. only fcs. [23:26:46] <axisys> gdamore: in your options.. does it shows (CSW) for xfce.. or that is another one [23:27:07] *** laca is now known as lacaAFK [23:27:17] <axisys> gdamore: i think i got it [23:27:44] <axisys> i thought it should say xfce.. but it actually shows as window manager (csw) [23:27:55] *** nwf has quit IRC [23:27:57] <gdamore> I think ti says "Xfce (CSW)" [23:28:06] <gisburn> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PAAMS - "Windows for Warships" [23:28:10] *** bengtf has quit IRC [23:28:12] <gdamore> but I cannot easily check, without logging out.

[23:36:00] <myrkraverk> how do I see how I've allocated slices? [23:36:08] <axisys> sahafeez: i think i am [23:36:09] <trygvis> myrkraverk: format [23:36:16] <myrkraverk> I don't recall which one I meant for zpool [23:36:17] <myrkraverk> format? [23:36:39] <sahafeez> axisys: you think? [23:36:48] <axisys> trygvis: try with LDFLAGS="-lrrd" [23:37:18] <axisys> or even better LDFLAGS="-L /path/to/rrdlib -R /path/to/rrdlib -lrrd" [23:37:27] <axisys> in your configure [23:37:38] <trygvis> but this is happening while compiling librra [23:37:39] <axisys> so LDFLAGS="-L /path/to/rrdlib -R /path/to/rrdlib -lrrd" ./configure.... [23:37:57] <axisys> then try w/o the -lrrd part [23:38:19] <trygvis> uhm, it's not installed .. I'm trying to build the library [23:40:28] <axisys> trygvis: its been a while since i built it. [23:40:31] <trygvis> I can't figure out where that "false cru" part is coming from [23:40:52] <axisys> trygvis: i think gcc just built it in previous line [23:41:04] <trygvis> yes, it's there [23:41:17] <axisys> do u have both .a and .so? [23:41:29] <trygvis> no, only so [23:41:36] <axisys> ok good [23:41:53] <gdamore> is there a Solaris 10 equivalent of mdb's "::interrupts" ? [23:42:02] <axisys> i dont remember but i think ./configure --help give u some options [23:42:13] <trygvis> what am I looking for? [23:42:31] <axisys> rrd library [23:42:38] <axisys> or something w/rrd [23:42:55] <trygvis> I'm trying to build it, I need a bit more detail on what do look for [23:43:13] <axisys> but u basically need to play w/ LDFLAGS, and whats the other other CPFLGAS.. the one that defines where to look for inlcude files [23:43:45] <trygvis> but why do you think it's failing to find the lib? [23:43:46] <axisys> i sure cant remember the details :-( .. [23:44:36] <axisys> well it could be your environment.. not sure [23:44:46] <trygvis> crap, and both sfw and blastwave are way out of date [23:46:29] *** coffman has quit IRC [23:48:23] <myrkraverk> hmm, how do I use format to show me how I've allocated unused slices? [23:48:45] <trygvis> press "p" and "p" [23:48:49] <trygvis> partitions -> print [23:49:20] <myrkraverk> ah, thanks [23:51:52] <myrkraverk> oh, and what do I edit to change my hostname? [23:52:19] <myrkraverk> (I want to change tekken characters) [23:52:53] <myrkraverk> (yes yes, I'm a n00b) [23:53:18] <Tpent1> shoudl do for starters [23:53:28] <Tpent1> /etc/host /etc/nodename [23:53:29] <trygvis> either /etc/hostname, /etc/hostname.<interface> or /etc/nodename [23:53:56] <Tpent1> or ifyou have an address in /etc/hostname.interface, just the mapping files [23:53:57] <myrkraverk> ok, thanks [23:56:35] *** gm152 has joined #opensolaris [23:57:07] *** ProfMikey has quit IRC [23:57:13] *** ProfMikey has joined #opensolaris
