[00:51:19] <boyd> Morning, all
[00:51:35] <richlowe> evenin'
[00:52:00] <boyd> Does anyone know what it means when a case is approved but not integrated into on? I'm thinking of 2003/674 which was approved in February
[00:52:04] <boyd> Hey richlowe
[00:52:17] <richlowe> boyd: that they aren't done yet?
[00:52:38] <boyd> done writing you mean?
[00:52:48] <boyd> It seems not to be 2 months work..
[00:52:53] <boyd> err 6 months
[00:53:33] <boyd> And it it's low on the priorities, why re-awaken the case in Feb if you're not ready to work on it?

[01:13:32] *** Mathman has joined #opensolaris
[01:14:21] <Mathman> so...correct me if I'm wrong here.  is solaris completely open now?  or are some parts of it still not open.  I coulda sworn I read or whatever that solaris express is completely open these days, as will be solaris 11.
[01:14:46] <Gman> it's mostly open
[01:15:06] <Mathman> ha, so I'm wrong apparently.  alrighty.
[01:15:07] <Gman> there's a few pieces that are still encumbered, but over time those will hopefully go away/get replaced
[01:15:40] <Gman> [very small proportion though]
[01:15:47] <Mathman> so how does something like nexenta or whatever work then if solaris isn't completely open?  I guess those parts that aren't open are just drivers or something?
[01:16:02] <Gman> because they're using binary bits
[01:16:11] <Gman> and there's a redistributable license on those binary bits
[01:16:16] <Mathman> I see

[01:41:52] <gnut> hi all
[01:42:17] <gnut> how do you know what's making a mount busy preventing you from unmounting?
[01:42:46] <jmcp> fuser -uf  /mountpoint
[01:42:47] <jmcp> mostly
[01:43:53] *** swa has joined #opensolaris
[01:44:11] <gnut> jmcp: thanks.... i tried it. it didn't work on my removable media. should it?
[01:44:24] <jmcp> can't recall
[01:44:40] <jmcp> have you tried "eject" on your removable media, and seen a "busy" response?
[01:45:27] <gnut> yeah
[01:45:37] <PerterB> fuser -c ... ?
[01:45:40] <gnut>  eject /media/NO\ NAME
[01:45:41] <gnut> unmount of /media/NO NAME /dev/dsk/c3t0d0p0 failed: umount: /media/NO NAME busy
[01:46:13] <SYS64738> to make a mail server (qmail + qmailscanner + spamassassin and clamav) is it bettere a whole or sparse zone ?
[01:46:15] <jmcp> :(
[01:46:19] <PerterB> (without the -c it just checks the mountpoint itself, not files/dirs within it)
[01:47:14] *** uebayasi has joined #opensolaris
[01:47:49] <gnut> odd... i use -c on the directory /media/NO\ NAME and it just spits out the directory name with a colon... no indication of which process is tying it up.
[01:47:58] <gnut> it's just a USB memory stick that i copied a file onto.

[05:33:26] <kito> how can you add a persistent directory to /var/run?
[05:33:42] <kito> or is there better place to put pids for custom daemons

[05:51:41] *** catena has joined #opensolaris
[06:14:46] <boyd> Why not just put them straight in /var/run?
[06:22:20] <kito> boyd because the daemons run under a user that doesn't have write perms for /var/run
[06:22:45] <dlg> kito: make a dir under /var/run that they can write to
[06:22:58] <kito> dlg that gets blown away after a reboot
[06:23:07] <dlg> kito: so make it again
[06:23:12] <kito> err
[06:23:23] <flyingparchment> [[ -d /var/run/myprogram ]] || mkdir /var/run/myprogram
[06:23:25] <flyingparchment> myprogram &
[06:23:54] <richlowe> if you're putting pids in there, why would it being blow away matter?
[06:24:09] <flyingparchment> because you need to recreate it on every boot
[06:24:12] <flyingparchment> (e.g. in your start script)
[06:24:14] <richlowe> So? :)
[06:24:29] <kito> richlowe the daemon doesn't have write permissions to /var/run, and I didn't really want to grant them
[06:25:22] <kito> flyingparchment I guess I could do something like that in the svc method
[06:25:35] <kito> but that wouldn't addign the permissions
[06:25:41] <kito> s/addign/assign/
[06:26:37] <flyingparchment> chown
[06:27:09] <kito> fair enough
[06:27:54] <kito> err, wait
[06:28:05] <dlg> kito: install -d?
[06:28:06] <kito> do the methods not get ran by the user specified int he svc manifest?
[06:29:39] <Tempt> Or you could create a directory that wasn't on /var/run for your software.
[06:30:29] <kito> yeah Ican come up with plenty of workarounds
[06:30:50] <kito> I just thought it would be nice and clean to have a persistent dir in /var/run
[06:31:15] <Tempt> given /var/run is mounted tmpfs with no size limits, there is a potential DOS in there ...
[06:31:32] <kito> And I am still curious as to who/what/how/when those get created anyway
[06:32:33] <kito> thats a god point
[06:32:39] <Tempt> look in /lib/svc/method/fs-minimal
[06:32:40] <kito> a good one too
[06:32:50] <kito> ahh
[06:32:53] <kito> thanks
[06:33:16] <Tempt> you could mount another tmpfs at that point for your application, although a more correct way would be to add another manifest and another method
[06:33:25] <Tempt> so upgrades wouldn't blam away your changes.
[06:33:42] <Tempt> You could also specify a size= limit to prevent DOS situations.
[06:34:07] <kito> I think that is the way to go
[06:34:12] <kito> thanks again
[06:34:29] <boyd> There probably shoudl be a size= on /var/run anyway, considering what it's for...
[06:34:54] <kito> what uses /var/run/daemon?
[06:35:04] <kito> noting on my systems
[06:35:09] <kito> s/noting/nothing/
[06:36:57] <Tempt> Nothing running on this host that uses it. I'm sure there's a reason.
[06:37:46] <kito> must be, it was added semi-recently
[06:38:07] <kito> > b48 anyway

[06:38:16] <Tempt> It's on 10u2
[06:38:18] <kito> that sounds like a dbus thing
[06:38:46] <kito> huh
[06:39:02] <kito> not on my sxcr b48
[06:39:11] <kito> or b36
[06:39:39] <Tempt> Yes, well, it's definately present on Solaris 10 u2 and u3
[06:39:46] <Tempt> Don't have anything older around here to check...
[06:43:21] <catena> which's the best open source mail server?
[06:44:32] <jmcp> the one which does the job you need it to
[06:44:58] <flyingparchment> catena: postfix and exim are both well thought of
[06:44:59] <dlg> try postfix if you're new to it
[06:45:44] <catena> what about courier, sendmail, and qmail?
[06:46:06] <flyingparchment> i thought courier was an MDA/imap/pop thing
[06:46:31] <kito> it is
[06:47:07] <kito> catena qmail is a headache to configure/maintain imo
[06:47:51] <flyingparchment> the only reason i think you'd want sendmail is because your OS vendor supports it, or your organisation standardised on it, or you already know it.
[06:48:06] <flyingparchment> it doesn't really have much merit of its own these days.  (it works well enough, but that's about it)
[06:48:19] <dlg> it has merit
[06:48:22] * dlg hearts milters
[06:48:52] <dlg> though i think postfix supports them too now
[06:48:58] <catena> flyingparchment yes im running sendmail on solaris
[06:49:16] <flyingparchment> sun will give you more support with sendmail than postfix :)
[06:49:19] <flyingparchment> if that matters to you
[06:49:56] <catena> what's the case with meta1
[06:50:09] <nachox> i think the osol guys are using postfix for their mailing lists and such
[06:50:25] <flyingparchment> meta1?  i don't know what that is
[06:51:33] <catena> http://www.meta1.org/
[06:52:32] <flyingparchment> i don't see the point.  don't we already have enough mtas?

[07:01:11] <flyingparchment> lloy0076: that would kind of defeat the point, wouldn't it?
[07:01:37] <lloy0076> Well, then how am I meant to know that Trent isn't just verifying CVV2 numbers regardless of what I send him?
[07:01:39] * lloy0076 sigh
[07:01:50] <flyingparchment> who?
[07:02:04] <lloy0076> Oh, sorry. In cryptographic jargon, Trent is the trusted authority.
[07:02:17] <jmcp> oh, he sits between Alice and Bob?
[07:02:18] <lloy0076> In this case, Trent would probably be the payment gateway authorities for example.
[07:02:23] <nachox> yep
[07:02:25] <flyingparchment> whydo you care?
[07:02:32] <flyingparchment> you = the merchant
[07:03:19] <lloy0076> I really don't know why a merchant would care whether the entity he was speaking to was a) the entity he wanted to speak to and b) if that entity were actually fulfilling its role correctly
[07:03:24] <lloy0076> :(
[07:03:40] <flyingparchment> i wasn't aware the CVV verified either of those things
[07:03:45] <flyingparchment> maybe i understood its purpose
[07:03:58] <lloy0076> Well, it probably doesn't.
[07:04:19] <lloy0076> nvm

[09:03:57] <trochej> One of those
[09:04:07] <trochej> Probably the first one, I cant remember now
[09:04:12] *** ichigo has joined #opensolaris
[09:04:29] 
[09:05:47] <gnut> trochej:  i found the first one on the broadcom page under the netxtreme SERVER page
[09:05:52] <gnut> and i'm trying it out right now
[09:06:04] <gnut> but the problem is that it registers my driver as bcme0
[09:06:10] *** nostoi has joined #opensolaris
[09:06:17] <gnut> and then gives me a bunch of errors
[09:06:21] <gnut> i haven't tried the second one though
[09:08:12] <trochej> gnut: It works for me, bcm5750 (so an earlier version)
[09:08:40] <gnut> trochej: hmm.. okay and it registers as bcme0?
[09:08:45] <gnut> i'll try it again.
[09:09:42] <gnut> maybe the driver is working and the issues are something else....
[09:09:51] <gnut> grr... getting dells to work is so troublesome
[09:10:53] <gnut> it'sbooting right now and it says bcme0 link is up
[09:11:03] <gnut> but rigth after that, i get ata0 warnings and timeouts
[09:11:18] <flyingparchment> ata0?  irq conflict? :)
[09:11:19] <gnut> but when i disconnect the network card in the bios, none of these ata0 timeouts occur
[09:11:22] <gnut> hmmm
[09:11:23] *** laca has joined #opensolaris
[09:11:24] <gnut> could be.
[09:11:29] <gnut> any way to resolve that?

[09:13:44] <gnut> all warnings though... even though it says error
[09:14:08] <flyingparchment> it's a warning that the command returned an error :)
[09:14:13] <gnut> heheh
[09:14:14] <gnut> yeah
[09:14:17] <gnut> that's what it says

[09:21:07] *** WickedWicky has quit IRC
[09:21:53] *** halton has joined #opensolaris
[09:22:19] <tsoome> if you can compile the driver. for any reason, sun does not provide binary drivers, even if the card is supported in x86
[09:23:28] <devel1> I mean, will it work in 64 bit PCI slot ?
[09:24:28] <tsoome> if your card is supporting this slot;)
[09:25:09] <devel1> thats my question :)
[09:25:20] <tsoome> check the spec
[09:25:30] *** cydork has joined #opensolaris

[09:55:26] *** Chipdancer has left #opensolaris
[09:55:57] *** Chipdancer has joined #opensolaris
[09:56:47] <Chipdancer> I've got snv_66+xen installed on an older piece of hardware (no USB) where the uhci driver is toxic and causes the system to crash.  This is fine, it's now configured to disable uhci on boot for the normal solaris kernel.
[09:56:48] <richlowe> boyd: does it really count as FUD when it's one mind destroying line?
[09:57:17] <Chipdancer> the question I'm trying to solve is how can I make it so that the xen dom0 kernel passes the same parameter through to the dom0 solaris kernel (-B disable-uhci=true)
[09:57:41] <Chipdancer> placing those extra flags on the kernel line in grub.conf on the dom0 entry doesn't help
[09:59:33] <Chipdancer> on a normal xen domU you would add those options in the xen guest configuration file's extras line
[09:59:46] <Chipdancer> does anybody know the equivalent for dom0?

[10:37:34] <quasi> sickness: look at the hcl under compatible pci devices
[10:37:37] <Tempt> Still, $50 for a decent gigabit card is less than the cost of a port on a decent switch.
[10:37:47] <quasi> Tempt: that is after shopping around ;)
[10:38:06] <Tempt> Fair cop.
[10:38:09] <Tempt> The price will only come down.

[13:07:08] <JWheeler> I'm not sure where it's sourced tbh
[13:07:21] <JWheeler> most of the time I have no idea what it's talking about anyway :)
[13:07:44] <flyingparchment> Gekkko: the onnv-gate mercurial repository, i think
[13:08:29] <Gekkko> is OpenSolaris both a kernel and an operatin system?
[13:08:36] <Gekkko> operating*
[13:08:41] <Gekkko> this is my understanding
[13:09:07] <flyingparchment> it is the source code for various parts of solaris (most of ON (the kernel and basic userland)), JDS, X, etc
[13:09:25] <Teknomancer> what does JDS stand for ?
[13:09:30] <Teknomancer> Java something i guess ;)

[13:25:35] <flyingparchment> it's the build stuff for CDE
[13:25:39] <Gekkko> oh
[13:25:50] <Gekkko> Common Build Environment?
[13:26:22] <flyingparchment> probably something like that
[13:27:49] <sickness> scary
[13:27:57] <Gekkko> I'm not sure if I could take changing from Linux to Solaris
[13:28:06] <Cyrille> CBE is not "the build stuff for CDE" it's the build stuff for the whole thing.
[13:28:11] <Gekkko> and I don't know why >_>
[13:28:14] <flyingparchment> why did i say CDE?
[13:28:18] <flyingparchment> i meant JDS
[13:28:25] <Gekkko> JDS is written in Java right?
[13:28:28] <Cyrille> no
[13:28:30] <flyingparchment> no, JDS is GNOME
[13:28:35] <flyingparchment> with some extra pretty
[13:29:01] <Gekkko> so it's just called JDS for no reason
[13:29:02] <Gekkko> excellent.
[13:29:07] <Corpuscule> that's Sun :)
[13:29:12] <Gekkko> does Java run better on Solaris than everything else?
[13:29:21] <flyingparchment> actually it does include "java media player" or something like that
[13:29:26] <Cyrille> It was named at a time when there was a trend in Javaifying the names of everything.
[13:29:34] <Gekkko> so very misleading
[13:29:45] *** monzie has quit IRC
[13:30:03] <Cyrille> so we had the Java Enterprise System (including most server style apps, some of which had some connection to Java, some of which didn't) and the Java Desktop System.
[13:30:17] <Gekkko> so can I still use KDE on Solaris?
[13:30:23] <Gekkko> not that I want to
[13:30:26] <Gekkko> I just like KDevelop.
[13:30:27] <flyingparchment> no, using KDE on solaris is illegal!!
[13:30:38] <Gekkko> really?
[13:30:43] <flyingparchment> no, not really.
[13:30:44] <Gekkko> illegal ethically?
[13:30:52] <Gekkko> I hate KDE with a passion
[13:30:57] <Gekkko> but I like KDevelop
[13:31:10] <Gekkko> is there a good C/C++ IDE on Solaris?
[13:31:20] <quasi> Gekkko: sun studio
[13:31:23] <flyingparchment> i never found such a thing on any platform, so i guess it depends on your taste
[13:31:30] <Gekkko> and is there gcc on Solaris?
[13:31:31] <flyingparchment> isn't studio just netbeans?
[13:31:32] <quasi> Gekkko: has one built on netbeans
[13:31:35] <flyingparchment> yes, there is gcc
[13:31:37] <Gekkko> basically the only two things that sells me :)
[13:31:42] <Gekkko> oh good :)
[13:31:48] <Gekkko> gcc isn't default compiler though is it
[13:31:51] <quasi> Gekkko: yes, but sun studio makes better bins
[13:31:52] <flyingparchment> but don't tell anyone here you use gcc or they'll whine at you
[13:31:55] <flyingparchment> (like that)
[13:32:09] <Gekkko> quasi: probably
[13:32:22] <Gekkko> my head hurts :P
[13:32:36] <Gekkko> my Solaris and OpenSolaris DVDs come in 2-4 weeks

[13:34:52] <flyingparchment> i knew someone who used a US satellite internet provider.. they provided a special IP driver for Windows that ignored checksums

[13:42:15] <Teknomancer> i've had ZFS report incorrect space when i made copies of a moderate sized folder... was odd.
[13:42:31] <Gekkko> so ZFS is still beta?
[13:42:46] <Teknomancer> not sure about the official status, but its usable
[13:43:17] <Gekkko> hmm
[13:43:24] <Gekkko> I need to know the inside and outside of CDDL
[13:43:32] <asyd> zfs is no in beta anymore since it is inclueded in solaris
[13:43:35] <Gekkko> I believe it's more restrictive than GPL?
[13:44:03] <asyd> Gekkko: !?
[13:44:06] <asyd> are you crazy :p
[13:44:11] <trygvis> no, it's not. it is basically the same as MIT
[13:44:22] * dlg cough
[13:44:36] <Gekkko> asyd: I seem crazy
[13:44:40] <Gekkko> I feel crazy.
[13:44:43] <Gekkko> Therefore I am.
[13:45:36] *** soulie has joined #opensolaris
[13:45:37] <delewis> if OSS projects actually understood the CDDL, it'd be a fairly popular license.
[13:45:58] <soulie> hello all
[13:45:59] <delewis> the nice thing about it is the its a file-based, rather than project-based license. So integrating code that's under a license is much easier if you're using the CDDL.
[13:46:11] *** HarryR has joined #opensolaris
[13:46:31] <delewis> even moreso, you have patent indemnification.
[13:46:40] <Teknomancer> hmm
[13:46:53] <Teknomancer> i wish they'd expand CDDL in the headers
[13:46:56] <Teknomancer> :P
[13:47:02] <Teknomancer> what does it stand for ?
[13:47:11] <Gekkko> Common Development and DESTRUCTION Licence
[13:47:12] <Gekkko> ;-)
[13:47:27] <Gekkko> Common Development and Distribution License
[13:47:35] <Teknomancer> thx
[13:48:00] <Gekkko> oh
[13:48:01] <soulie> yesterday i used crle -c ld.config <path to wxwidgets librarys> , this resulted in total chaos :P , is that because it removed the default linking ??
[13:48:07] <Gekkko> and can't CDDL be used for proprietary products?
[13:48:16] <delewis> its also merely a source license. What one does with binaries does not fall under the CDDL. Of course, you can take a similar interpretation of the GPL if you ignore the FSF GPL FAQ (which is mostly a pile of bullshit anyway)
[13:48:36] <delewis> define proprietary "products"
[13:48:48] <Gekkko> Windows.
[13:48:56] <asyd> "lol"
[13:49:00] <delewis> sorry, but you're not making a lot of sense.
[13:49:01] <Gekkko> with I should say
[13:49:02] <Gekkko> not for.
[13:49:09] <Gekkko> linked to?
[13:49:20] <Teknomancer> hehe
[13:49:21] <delewis> GPL can, as well.
[13:49:26] <Gekkko> like GPL'd code can't just become closed source
[13:49:30] <delewis> I fail to see your distinction.
[13:49:32] <Gekkko> it's derivatives must be GPL
[13:49:33] <delewis> sure it can.
[13:49:39] <delewis> the GPL does not mention the term "linking"
[13:49:44] <delewis> its a source-based license like the GPL.
[13:49:51] <Teknomancer> GPL can become closed but the code once released as OSS GPL , will remain so i think
[13:50:11] <Gekkko> I mean only the author can make it closed source I believe
[13:50:17] <Gekkko> if you derive from the code you must release under GPL
[13:50:20] <asyd> only the owner of the source can change GPL to other licences
[13:50:28] <delewis> any "non-free" project could take code licensed under the GPL compile it, and link it with it whatever. As long as they distribute the sources separately.
[13:50:37] <purserj> and then it only affects the versions of the software not licensed as GPL
[13:50:40] <delewis> Gekkko, get this through your head.
[13:50:48] <delewis> the GPL does *not* mention the term "linking"
[13:50:51] <delewis> its a source-based license.
[13:50:58] <delewis> what one does with binaries is *not* covered by the license.
[13:51:08] <Gekkko> I realise that.
[13:51:36] <Gekkko> And I realise I'm not making misunderstood, sorry
[13:51:43] <purserj> umm distribution of binaries is covered, in that source code must be provided either along with the binaries or upon request
[13:52:27] <delewis> purserj, sure but conditions regarding binaries are not (like the misconception re: linking conditions)
[13:52:49] <HarryR> delewis, so if there's no restriction on linking against the GPL, why was the LGPL made?
[13:52:59] <purserj> delewis: yup
[13:53:18] <delewis> any lawyer worth the air he breathes could prove in court the term "the work or program" is at best ambiguous and that the term "linking" is not mentioned in the text of the GPL, and thus, does not cover linking conditions.
[13:53:37] <delewis> HarryR, because the FSF is filled with morons.
[13:53:44] <HarryR> ehe
[13:53:47] <delewis> and moreso, the bulk of the people that use the GPL are morons, as well.
[13:54:10] <HarryR> yah, I get annoyed on a regular basis with people not understanding the needs of other people when licensing their source code
[13:54:29] <Teknomancer> closed source ftw then :P
[13:54:45] <delewis> a ZFS implemention in Linux would be very much possible *if* people would get their heads out of their asses and stop mis-interpreting the GPL.
[13:54:48] <HarryR> so I just go with the MIT license for everything I do :\
[13:54:59] <sickness> will the heads up on solaris support for athlon64 frequency management in snv70 conflict with frkit? do you advice to remove frkit before liveupgrading from snv69 to snv70?
[13:55:08] <delewis> the only requirement is that ZFS sources (kernel and userland) would need to be distributed separately from the Linux kernel sources.
[13:55:19] <delewis> now, binaries *could* be distributed together, just not sources.
[13:55:28] <delewis> making distributions possible that do have ZFS.
[13:56:01] <Gekkko> hmm
[13:56:03] <Teknomancer> linux supporting zfs is good, but how about open solaris including reiser support
[13:56:11] <Gekkko> Reiser is shit
[13:56:13] <tsoome> why it should?
[13:56:15] * dlg snicker
[13:56:20] <hile_> why the hell would we want to inclue Reiser
[13:56:26] <Teknomancer> its not bad
[13:56:28] <delewis> Teknomancer, the fact of the matter is (and I'll put it bluntly) is that ON has quality standards.
[13:56:35] <delewis> Reiser isn't quality, and thus, won't be integrated.
[13:56:47] <Teknomancer> heh
[13:57:05] <Gekkko> XFS is pretty good in my opinion
[13:57:08] <delewis> that's also why filesystem support in ON will remain at best minimal.
[13:57:25] <delewis> most of the filesystems in Linux aren't worth a dime.
[13:57:26] <hile_> Over XFS, I'd take JFS2
[13:57:35] <tsoome> well, you can always make your own reiser port:P
[13:57:44] <hile_> but of the ones listed, I'd take XFS over even ext*
[13:57:52] <Gekkko> XFS has better support for many small files and JFS is better for large files though isn't it?
[13:58:10] * delewis loves how Linux people use "JFS" ambiguously
[13:58:22] <delewis> there's JFS/JFS2 and OS/2 JFS, which is what Linux basically has.
[13:58:45] <Gekkko> I see.
[13:58:58] <Gekkko> then what's the advantage of JFS2 over XFS?
[13:59:05] <Teknomancer> what is OpenSolaris' target? Servers right ?
[13:59:15] <HarryR> Teknomancer, yah...
[13:59:17] <delewis> Teknomancer, works fine on my laptop.
[13:59:22] <delewis> works fine on my workstation.
[13:59:34] <Gekkko> how goes Wine on Solaris?
[13:59:47] * HarryR straps a VAX microcomputer to his arm... Look a VAX wristwatch
[13:59:54] <Teknomancer> delewis:  i'm running it on a laptop too
[13:59:56] <hile_> works fine on mine also if I would let it, but I use prod code only
[13:59:57] <HarryR> just because it runs doesn't mean it's suited ;)
[14:00:02] <Teknomancer> which is why i asked that question
[14:00:04] <sickness> heh, we'd really need wine+direct3d support, or even cedega, for games :P
[14:00:09] <Teknomancer> HarryR:  exactly
[14:00:17] <Gekkko> sickness: so it has neither?
[14:00:20] <Gekkko> not nice. :P
[14:00:27] <sickness> it has wine
[14:00:29] <Gekkko> any good bittorrent clients for Solaris?
[14:00:34] <Gekkko> besides rtorrent
[14:00:37] <tsoome> Teknomancer: OpenSolaris is Solaris beta. therefore it's best suited for testing.
[14:00:39] <sickness> don't know about cedega, but I think it would be portable...
[14:00:40] <delewis> I should mention that my laptop is a Tadpole, but I've run it on x86 laptops, as well.
[14:00:57] <HarryR> ah right delewis
[14:01:00] <Teknomancer> tsoome: Solaris 11 is the next version?
[14:01:10] <axisys> Teknomancer: sol 10 u4
[14:01:16] <Teknomancer> ah ok
[14:01:27] <axisys> Teknomancer: should be in aug
[14:01:45] <ofu> yes, sure
[14:01:52] <axisys> ofu: heh
[14:02:21] <ofu> will sol10u4 really be out in august?
[14:02:43] <HarryR> delewis, what sort of pricerange would I be looking at? Can't see anything about the sparcbook pricing on their website :(
[14:02:54] <axisys> its funny watching the FS flare.. no one explained why reiser is bad.. looking for some intelligent answers .. not just because I said so
[14:03:06] <delewis> they sell to the government. They have to do quotes.
[14:03:33] <delewis> SPARCLE runs around $3,000 base. My SPARCbook 6500 config. was roughly $25,000 or so.
[14:03:39] <HarryR> pfff
[14:03:52] * HarryR spits coffee everywhere
[14:04:03] <Gekkko> axisys: can cause CPU spikes on heavy usage
[14:04:08] <Gekkko> not very efficient
[14:04:11] <delewis> you try finding a 64-bit laptop /w 2x60GB disks and 4GB of memory in 2001. :-)
[14:04:14] <Gekkko> can't use chattr.
[14:04:36] *** lplatypus has joined #opensolaris
[14:04:37] <HarryR> Gekkko, uh, yeah you can
[14:04:54] <Gekkko> really?
[14:05:03] <Gekkko> once again I've been misinformed >_>
[14:05:18] <axisys> Gekkko: spike is because of the journaling? or some inherent fs algorithm
[14:05:41] <Gekkko> axisys: not sure, just going by what I've heard from many sources.
[14:05:57] <Teknomancer> Gekkko i thought you were with your immediate remark on "reiser is shit"
[14:05:58] <Teknomancer> :P
[14:06:17] <Gekkko> yeah, well, :-P you
[14:06:27] <axisys> hmm.. anyone knows why they dont like reiser.. again looking for some intelligent answers please
[14:06:33] * quasi liked jfs on linux - "you have corrupted files on your drive.... fixing... no more corrupt files (and no files at all)"
[14:06:34] <Teknomancer> there's been bitching about pretty much every new FS
[14:07:13] *** kszwed has quit IRC
[14:07:27] <axisys> its cool.. i will just go to google/wikipedia for answers.. assuming I get some credible answers :-)
[14:07:33] <Gekkko> that's one thing i don't like about reiser
[14:07:46] <Gekkko> if it tries to repair corruption, chances are it will corrupt more >_>
[14:07:47] <StylusEater> axisys: from what I've read it's because Hans isn't very nice to people who critique his work... not sure if it's really technical objection versus socio-political
[14:07:57] *** Waywocket has quit IRC
[14:07:58] <Gekkko> especially if you resize the partition
[14:08:01] <Gekkko> it doesn't like that much.
[14:08:21] <Gekkko> StylusEater: he's just pretending, while you aren't looking he'll kill you like his late wife

[14:08:38] <Gekkko> axisys: I can't remember which i did, I shrunk I think
[14:08:43] <HarryR> Gekkko, have they found her yet?
[14:08:46] <Gekkko> I've changed my parts so much...
[14:08:49] <Gekkko> HarryR: don't think so.
[14:08:50] <StylusEater> HarryR: no
[14:08:56] <HarryR> then innocent until proven guilty
[14:09:14] <StylusEater> bah... he doesn't have that much money.  He's guilty until proven innocent.
[14:09:17] <HarryR> no body = circumstantial evidence
[14:09:21] <tsoome> soulie: forget about crle, its not meant to be used
[14:09:30] <HarryR> oh yeah I forgot, he's being tried & convicted in the USA
[14:09:34] <HarryR> poor guy :(
[14:09:37] <StylusEater> yup
[14:10:10] <Gekkko> lol
[14:10:20] <HarryR> hrm I need some ammo to help persuade the company I work for to try solaris
[14:10:21] <Gekkko> he might sign a deal with the Al Qaeda
[14:10:22] <Gekkko> >_>
[14:10:32] <Gekkko> then he'll start spelling America with a K
[14:10:38] <Gekkko> wait... he's Deutsch.
[14:10:43] <Gekkko> he already does :P
[14:10:56] <StylusEater> HarryR: I think it still requires 756mb of ram for the installer... :-/
[14:11:20] <HarryR> nah, I've installed 10 on pleanty of machines with only 256mb
[14:11:35] <StylusEater> devexpress?
[14:11:51] <HarryR> nah, Solaris 10 standard (closed source)
[14:11:54] <Teknomancer> devexpress install can kill you :)
[14:11:57] <soulie> but when installing wxwidgets it requires , the install ask to load/modify ld.config?
[14:12:00] <Teknomancer> man it took a while
[14:12:11] <soulie> so i assumed adding the wxlibs with crle
[14:12:20] <Gekkko> :O
[14:12:25] <Gekkko> Sun Studio for Linux?
[14:12:28] <tsoome> use LD_LIBRARY_PATH if really needed

[14:12:59] <HarryR> on a production machine that is anyway
[14:13:02] <Gekkko> hmm, which is better for a workstation, OpenSolaris or Solaris?
[14:13:03] <lloy0076> Anyone here own a hardeback copy of Solaris Performance Tools, 2nd Edition (it's slimmer than its companion Solaris Internals, 2nd Edition)?
[14:13:04] <Gekkko> or Nexenta?
[14:13:12] <Teknomancer> HarryR:  who knows what goes install your head :P
[14:13:20] <Peanut_> Sure, lloy, but it's at home.
[14:13:26] <lloy0076> If so, has anyone noticed if the paper used to print it is especially moisture absorbing?
[14:13:27] <tsoome> Gekkko: MacOS X :P
[14:13:35] <HarryR> Gekkko, FreeVMS
[14:13:45] <Peanut_> No, but then I don't spill coffee on it ;-)
[14:13:50] <Gekkko> >_>
[14:13:57] <Gekkko> stop jerking with my foot.
[14:14:10] <lloy0076> Mine's been sitting in my kitchen for a while and the paper just feels...moist and the two front pages had started to kind of stick together.
[14:14:12] <tsoome> .oO Vista:P
[14:14:19] <Gekkko> >_>
[14:14:23] <Gekkko> I hate MacOS X
[14:14:33] <StylusEater> wuh? vista? osX?
[14:14:34] <Gekkko> I hate Windows more than I hate ...
[14:14:37] <StylusEater> I thought we were in #opensolaris?
[14:14:38] <Gekkko> everything else.
[14:14:51] <Gekkko> aren't you meant to advocate OpenSolaris or Solaris here?
[14:14:51] <Gekkko> >_>!
[14:15:07] <lloy0076> Yeppers, definitely moisture.
[14:15:08] * lloy0076 sigh
[14:15:57] <tsoome> well, you cant just ask what I should use on my WS - if you still do, the vista/macos is probably best for you, since you obviously dont know waht you need.
[14:16:07] <Gekkko> holy shit Sun Studio is 1GB LOL
[14:16:10] <Gekkko> that's a giant suite thar.
[14:17:02] <Gekkko> tsoome: so how am I meant to learn if you just send new people away?
[14:17:08] <Gekkko> that's the attitude that causes an OS to die >_>
[14:17:58] <tsoome> only modern desktop unix is macos - good looking, with decent amount of sw and hw support
[14:18:05] <tsoome> but
[14:18:31] <HarryR> but.. OSX isn't unix!
[14:18:32] <tsoome> if you need to support your solaris servers, get ideas whats going on on development - then install opensolaris
[14:18:41] <tsoome> it is very unix
[14:18:45] <tsoome> bsd
[14:18:59] <HarryR> 20 years ago..
[14:19:00] <quasi> Gekkko: studio has many nice tools along with the cc - http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/articles/perftools.html for a couple
[14:19:08] <tsoome> it still is
[14:19:33] <tsoome> it has all I need - terminals, built in ssh, unix tools etc
[14:19:48] <JWheeler> Anyone familiar with Makefile syntax in here. Can I use a conditional statement, within a target? I can't see to get it to work
[14:19:49] <Gekkko> quasi: I noticed ;-)
[14:20:24] <HarryR> JWheeler, if [ condition ]; then commands && commands && commends; fi
[14:20:46] <Gekkko> well I'd gladly read an article comparing Solaris to OpenSolaris if anyone has one
[14:20:49] *** master_of_master has quit IRC
[14:21:11] *** lplatypus has quit IRC
[14:21:22] <tsoome> What you like to read from such an article?
[14:21:48] <Gekkko> I'm not exactly sure.
[14:21:53] <Gekkko> primary differences
[14:22:03] <Gekkko> I'm hesitant to ask in here incase I get flamed :P
[14:22:04] <tsoome> given that opensolaris is development version of solaris - all new features will appear in osol first;)
[14:22:25] <tsoome> making it more feature rich, but also more fragile
[14:23:13] <JWheeler> HarryR, it seems to be more like ifeq (A,B) command else command endif
[14:23:33] <Teknomancer> endif?
[14:23:40] <JWheeler> yeah
[14:23:44] <HarryR> JWheeler, oh, conditionals at the Makefile level and not just at the shell level?
[14:24:06] <Gekkko> tsoome: fragile as in instable if you push it the wrong way?
[14:24:07] <JWheeler> yeah, the makefile itself. I'm trying to do something that they probably weren't meant to do :)
[14:24:38] <tsoome> no, as code is new, many bugs can appear, it may not even install if you are out of luck
[14:24:42] *** tmyneii has joined #opensolaris
[14:25:07] <tsoome> as always with fresh code
[14:25:16] <Gekkko> so it's not for the faint-hearted

[14:25:23] <quasi> Gekkko: http://opensolaris.org/os/community/on/flag-days/ lets you follow what is new in opensolaris
[14:25:26] *** Murmuria has joined #opensolaris
[14:25:35] <Gekkko> that's basically the only difference? the new code?
[14:25:59] <asyd> btw, I notice the pfil interface disappears from opensolaris head
[14:26:04] <tsoome> well, again, its development snapshot if you like this way
[14:26:09] <asyd> that's sux a bit to port pf :p
[14:26:10] * lloy0076 wonders what nincompoop decided to bind this book together with water soluble glue
[14:26:41] <Gekkko> tsoome: sounds pretty cool to me :-)
[14:26:50] <tsoome> it can be, ofc
[14:26:58] <Gekkko> Containers are what really made me look into OpenSolaris
[14:27:16] <tsoome> depends on your reasoning or what you like to get
[14:27:25] <soulie> me confused people advise not to use crle , and also not to use LD_LIBRARY_PATH so is there a magic 3 solutions?
[14:27:51] <asyd> hard link in your binaries :p
[14:28:07] <tsoome> soulie: you can use LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but, the best way to use it is to use it in wrapper scripts
[14:28:08] <quasi> soulie: -R when you compile
[14:28:27] <soulie> ;o for wxwidgets?
[14:28:31] <tsoome> global LD_LIBRARY_PATH can be as disasterous as crle (ok, its little less, but still)
[14:28:45] <Gekkko> tsoome: I just want it to try out Solaris as a student :)
[14:29:03] <Gekkko> use it as a workstation
[14:29:45] <tsoome> to get experienced with new technology, develop something etc, its just fine

[14:38:33] <Gekkko> Excellent
[14:38:36] <Gekkko> lol @ KDE4 on Windows
[14:38:43] <Gekkko> that should be one hell of an experiment
[14:39:12] <oxygene> like "unix on the desktop"?
[14:39:18] <Teknomancer> Gekkko i'm using Gaim on opensolaris atm
[14:39:25] <HarryR> if it can be ported to Windows without much trouble, it can only make the software better (as in more robust)
[14:39:27] <Teknomancer> is there QT libs for opensolaris? which version ?
[14:39:30] <Gekkko> they didn't update to Pidgin?
[14:39:39] <jmcp> Gekkko: steleman is Da Man(tm) for KDE on Solaris, iirc
[14:39:46] <Teknomancer> i don't know, i couldn't find Pidgin for opensolaris
[14:39:58] <Teknomancer> but i heard there's a version
[14:39:58] <Gekkko> I'm not too fond of the ol' GAIM.

[14:51:58] <st3fan> argh. dev edition keeps configuring my interface through dhcp.
[14:52:11] <st3fan> even though i have no dhcp.ifacename
[14:52:23] <st3fan> did something change in that area recently?
[14:52:36] <st3fan> this is snv_64a
[14:53:02] <Gekkko> hmm
[14:53:07] <Gekkko> is there geany on Solaris?
[14:53:18] <jmcp> st3fan: if you chose the Developer Express installation, then the dhcp stuff is by design
[14:53:25] <st3fan> hm
[14:53:28] <jmcp> try turning off nwam
[14:53:32] <st3fan> nwam?
[14:53:33] <st3fan> ok
[14:53:42] <jmcp> and run a "sys-unconfig" so that you can reconfigure your system to use a static ip
[14:53:47] <jmcp> and give it a hostname :)
[14:53:54] <jmcp> nwam == NetWork AutoMagic
[14:53:59] <st3fan> ahhhh
[14:54:25] <st3fan> svcadm disable nwam is enough right?
[14:55:12] <st3fan> jmcp, thank you so much for that hint, this caused me headaches :)
[14:55:17] <jmcp> you're welcome
[14:55:19] <st3fan> gave me
[14:55:22] <jmcp> it caused me a heap of pain too
[14:55:39] <st3fan> dhcp was turned on every time i killed it .. like MAGIC
[14:55:57] <jmcp> that'll be the SMF automatic restart feature
[14:56:26] <st3fan> no i mean i thought i disabled it correctly but then it would be turned back on at the next reboot
[14:56:32] <jmcp> yeah
[14:56:33] <jmcp> I know
[14:56:38] <jmcp> that's the automatic restart thing
[14:56:42] <jmcp> part of it, at any rate
[14:57:11] <jmcp> if you want to temporarily disable a service, eg cde-login, run    svcadm disable -t cde-login
[14:57:17] <jmcp> that'll disable until the next reboot
[14:57:21] <jmcp> man svcadm
[14:57:40] <st3fan> got it
[14:57:57] <st3fan> just rebooted .. it is asking me for network info again .. good :)
[14:58:09] <jmcp> don't tell it that you want to use dhcp :-)

[15:18:51] * timeless wonders if there's a timetable for adding 2.6 support for lx
[15:19:00] <flyingparchment> timeless: "never"
[15:19:10] <BatonT> flyingparchment: howcome?
[15:19:11] <flyingparchment> sun doesn't really care about lx brand as a serious product, AIUI
[15:19:19] <flyingparchment> it's pretty much staying as it is unless someone in the community wants to improve it
[15:19:25] <BatonT> ahh
[15:20:11] <BatonT> i guess now there is Xen on solaris theres less need for lx
[15:20:16] <timeless> has someone taken a survey of what's different?
[15:21:13] <cmihai> flyingparchment: oh come on, it's not like SCO has 2.6 emulation in UnixWare / OpenServer with Linux Kernel Personality, and lx is pretty much the same thing. Or FreeBSD/OpenBSD/NetBSD with Linux_Compat. They all emulate 2.4 kernels.\
[15:21:22] <cmihai> And that doesn't stop them from having SOME use.
[15:21:24] <flyingparchment> cmihai: huh?
[15:21:37] <flyingparchment> i didn't say 2.4 is no use.
[15:21:40] <Gekkko> back
[15:21:50] <flyingparchment> i said that sun isn't interested in developing lx as a product, and as a result, 2.6 is unlikely to be supported.
[15:21:53] <cmihai> Well, you did say it's not a serious product...
[15:22:03] <flyingparchment> this is the impression i got from the website and the mailing list
[15:23:13] <cmihai> flyingparchment: emulating a 2.6 kernel could prove.. complicated for very few results
[15:23:19] <flyingparchment> indeed
[15:23:24] <cmihai> Remember, it's not a real kernel.
[15:23:28] <timeless> cmihai: flying didn't really ask
[15:23:29] <flyingparchment> although some specific apis - like epoll - would be very great
[15:23:35] <timeless> the asker to the extent there is one was me
[15:23:36] <cmihai> Yeah
[15:23:40] <flyingparchment> solaris basically supports the same thing as epoll (ports) anyway
[15:23:43] *** Agony has joined #opensolaris
[15:24:00] <cmihai> But it's still translating syscalls and such, so hope for supported modules and running things like VMware are still far fetched.
[15:24:42] <flyingparchment> i don't know why i said "very great" there, i don't even use lx
[15:24:44] <flyingparchment> i think that's the beer talking

[16:40:21] <Cyrille> from a quick skimming, it looked like they were all getting worked up on how solaris would become linux, despite the many statements to the contrary from Ian and others.

[16:51:23] <oxygene> Cyrille: until there's a real concept, indiana can become anything.. just handwaving and throwing "packages" and "gnu tools" in the pool doesn't help anybody plan their strategies surround solaris, and it also doesn't help with killing the "will become linux" image
[16:51:54] <Tempt> Perhaps the whole Indiana spiel should have been kept quiet until someone had a plan?
[16:52:03] <Cyrille> where would be the fun in that?
[16:52:13] <Tempt> I love some of the comments though
[16:52:19] <quasi> Tempt: that is not the way of marketing

[16:53:09] <Cyrille> next thing you know, you're going to say they should have said "opensolaris will become the base for an actual Sun provided and regularly released distribution" rather than "will become more like Linux"...
[16:53:52] <Tempt> heh
[16:54:04] <Tempt> The comments made it worth the article.

[17:05:25] <Gman> Cyrille, don't think so, i've never seen his office either
[17:05:34] <Tempt> Actually, that'd be really cool. If Apple was to release MacOS X source, there'd be many good things for all. They'd probably use a BSD license, too, so Solaris could enjoy some of the UI stuff in the same way that MacOS is getting dtrace and zfs.
[17:05:37] *** zvrba has joined #opensolaris
[17:05:52] <oxygene> Tempt: apple has its own license, I think
[17:06:05] <Tempt> Wouldn't that be a marvel of open source collaboration between big companies?
[17:06:20] <PerterB> I think it's upsetting to them that while all they keep hearing is that Linux on x86 is the dogs bollocks, sun persists on being contrary and producing its own hardware and OS and not drinking the kool aid...
[17:06:25] <Tempt> MacOS with a real filesystem and dtrace, and Solaris with Aqua.
[17:06:49] <oxygene> solaris with aqua? ugh..
[17:07:11] <PerterB> or just resurrect Openstep ;)

[17:08:37] <tsoome> well at least it would be possible to get rid of damn gnome:P
[17:08:55] <Tempt> Actually, Apple could have some big wins by moving all that pretty UI onto a good, honest Solaris base.
[17:09:47] <Tempt> It'd certainly give them an OS for the server side. Heh, remember when the bigger Apple servers ran AIX?
[17:10:33] <PerterB> yup, assuming that's feasible (I think most of the GUI stuff in OSX talks direct to Mach, not the BSD layer)
[17:11:19] <Tempt> Hey, it's just an idea. A nice idea.
[17:11:43] <PerterB> agreed :)
[17:12:09] <Tempt> Anything with more Solaris is a nice idea.
[17:12:47] <oxygene> PerterB: GUI talks directly to mach? that's broken on _so_ many levels, it isn't funny
[17:13:00] *** perlmonk has joined #opensolaris
[17:13:22] <Tempt> Not really.
[17:13:26] <Tempt> MacOS is a desktop OS.
[17:13:47] <Tempt> Anything that makes it a faster, more responsive environment is more important than making it more stable.
[17:13:55] <tsoome> broken or not brokeb, but it works and is nice to use
[17:14:16] <PerterB> oxygene: my understanding of the implementation is very limited, but I do seem to recall it using Mach ports a lot when I was debugging something
[17:14:35] <Tempt> Spend a few days using MacOS and then try to use GNOME without getting angry. This is why I live such a commandline existance.
[17:15:21] <oxygene> I get angry at gnome even without using any other desktop environment before..
[17:15:51] <PerterB> as someone else said, "zfs is one big layering violation"... sometimes that's appropriate for other systems too
[17:15:58] <Tempt> GNOME fails on so many levels as a desktop.
[17:16:11] <oxygene> PerterB: sure, but mach?
[17:16:26] <oxygene> I'm not talking about how everything should be based on unix (it shouldn't) - but mach?
[17:16:30] <oxygene> :)
[17:17:28] <PerterB> mach is the "lowest level" OS in OSX... everythign else is layered on top, including its BSD layer
[17:23:54] <tomww> I would like to build a layer on OpenSolaris, the result is what looks like indiana. so layering solves any problems :-) ....
[17:24:40] * PerterB laughs
[17:25:09] <Tempt> Can I build a layer over your Indiana layer that looks like Solaris?

[17:26:11] <nachox> Tempt: blasphemy! had dare you turn indiana into solaris
[17:26:18] <tomww> hmm. where is the   #define MAXLAYERS  ?
[17:26:33] <Tempt> tomww: It's a 64 bit unsigned int ...
[17:26:43] <tomww> well, not too much
[17:26:52] <curlyman> Wouldn't moving MacOS to SunOS generate a speed increase with just the Micro -> Macro kernel change alone?
[17:27:16] <asyd> anyone involve in the crossbow project by chance?
[17:27:35] <asyd> to talk about the pfil interface
[17:28:00] <sickness> Tempt: lol
[17:28:37] <oxygene> curlyman: it might generate a speed increase due to moving away from mach - but that's not necessarily related to moving away from a microkernel system
[17:30:26] <Tempt> The move away from a microkernel's performance increase would be entirely different to the performance boost from ditching mach. Besides, QNX is evidence that microkernels can be speedy.
[17:30:54] <oxygene> Tempt: or L4, or most other microkernels
[17:31:01] <curlyman> oxygene: anything that will give me less spinny pinwheel time on this mac is kickass.
[17:31:13] <oxygene> mach was a nice research project, back in those days.. using mach today looks like a sick old joke by sick old men.
[17:31:42] <Tempt> Ha! Mine spends it's time showing me beachballs.
[17:31:52] <Tempt> The very same beachball that lived in NextStep

[21:01:03] <gdamore> but this means that all my lookups, e.g. www.sun.com, which don't have a trailing dot, get mapped first to www.sun.com.damore.org, which all of a sudden starts resolving.

[22:12:19] <byron> just tested, none of the aliases are working in non-interactive
[22:12:33] <Yorokobi> byron, you could ask in #ssh and/or #openssh.
[22:12:46] <byron> ok I'll do that. Thanks.

[22:35:46] <oasnebi> yeargh, i followed http://anilgtech.wordpress.com/2006/12/14/sound-on-solaris/ and when i got to #update_drv -a -i '"pci8086,266e"' audioi810 -> i got a ("pci8086,266e") already in use as a driver or alias.
[22:35:55] <oasnebi> any ideas? i currently have no working sound :(
[22:41:10] <sommerfeld> byron: what's your shell?
[22:41:26] *** xsh has joined #opensolaris
[22:44:38] <byron> bash
[22:44:58] <oasnebi> so before, i was told that either the link i posted above or OSS would solve my sound woes. is there a solaris package for OSS yet?
[22:45:56] <trochej> oasnebi: www.opensound.com
[22:46:46] <oasnebi> am i correct in assuming a lot of opensolaris people like to run it as a desktop OS? (server OS as well no doubt)
[22:47:12] *** Pietro_S has joined #opensolaris
[22:47:31] <aruiz> oasnebi, not only want, but they do
[22:47:43] <aruiz> oasnebi, :P
[22:48:19] <oasnebi> okay, well if OSS doesn't solve this sound issue, that does it for me at least as having opensolaris as a desktop OS
[22:48:27] <oasnebi> it's a great server OS so far from what i've seen
[22:50:16] *** curlyman has left #opensolaris
[22:51:36] *** Albaraha_ has joined #opensolaris
[22:52:55] <quasi> oasnebi: what kind of soundcard is it?
[22:54:28] *** BatonT has quit IRC
[22:55:01] <oasnebi> i810 AC97
[22:55:11] <oasnebi> works with windows and linux
[22:56:21] <RElling> is the audio810 driver not loaded?  prtconf -D
[22:56:44] *** curlyman has joined #opensolaris
[23:00:16] <quasi> oasnebi: sounds like what I have - pci1043,812a, instance #0 (driver name: audio810)
[23:00:52] <quasi> oasnebi: and that loads just fine with ON from ~50 and up
[23:01:29] <oasnebi> RElling: does that come standard with opensolaris or was that to be expected to come with that audioi810 package?
[23:01:45] <oasnebi> prtconf -D doesn't show audio810
[23:01:50] <oasnebi> and what's "ON"?
[23:01:59] <quasi> oasnebi: opensolaris
[23:02:23] <oasnebi> hmm, so no need for OSS then?
[23:02:33] <RElling> oasnebi: yes, try 'man audio810'
[23:02:44] <quasi> oasnebi: out of SUNWad810
[23:02:56] <oasnebi> RElling: okay, thanks i'll read through it
[23:03:17] <RElling> it has been around a long time... we used it in the W1100z workstation which is long since been replaced
[23:03:42] <oasnebi> also, is there a solaris equivalent of 'locate' builtin?
[23:03:52] <oasnebi> if there isn't that's fine, but if there is i'd like to know what it's called
[23:04:39] <quasi> oasnebi: there isn't afaik - but if you're looking for something that is part of the solaris package system, you could just grep in /var/sadm/install/contents
[23:05:07] *** m0l1 has joined #opensolaris
[23:05:57] <oasnebi> okay, so i just modload'd audio810... is there a service i should be restarting?
[23:06:26] <quasi> oasnebi: try checking prtconf -D again
[23:06:31] <oasnebi> the standard gnome that ships with the snv_57 DVDs (is it called the "Java Desktop"?) has a volume control icon that has a diagonal red line through it
[23:06:54] <oasnebi> yeah, the audioi810 line is present
[23:07:28] <RElling> try logging out and logging back in, gnome desktop should pick it up
[23:09:00] *** Albaraha has quit IRC
[23:10:03] *** swmackie has quit IRC
[23:11:03] <oasnebi> is mplayer available by the way? i'm so used to having it available in linux/bsd and so new to the style of package management system i'm used to (or lack thereof?) that it's a bit overwhelming to install / delete any packages
[23:11:16] <oasnebi> the mplayer site doesn't have their own solaris package as the OSS site did
[23:12:04] <oasnebi> RElling: so is the solaris gnome desktop called the java desktop because it starts up saying 'java' and 'adobe flash enabled' and it certainly looks very modded compared to vanilla gnome
[23:12:08] *** PPRO has joined #opensolaris
[23:12:37] <oasnebi> i logged out of gnome desktop and logged back in and i still see a red line through the volume control :(
[23:13:18] <oasnebi> prtconf -D still shows pci4352,5933 (driver name: audioi810)
[23:13:33] <RElling> realplayer and totem should be there, xine and mplayer are popular (mplayer has been available for Solaris for the past 15+ years)
[23:13:52] <oasnebi> modinfo shows audio810 as well still
[23:14:21] <RElling> silly question, is it muted?
[23:14:22] <oasnebi> realplayer and totem are by far not my favorites. how can i get mplayer without having to compile the source and make my own package?
[23:14:27] *** BatonT has joined #opensolaris
[23:14:42] <oasnebi> no, because the device can't be found according to the gnome desktop volume control
[23:15:02] <oasnebi> which i guess is true... i don't see /dev/aud*
[23:15:22] <oasnebi> but i remember reading solaris also puts things in /devices or something so i'll look through there as well
[23:15:52] <oasnebi> whoa, not used to the way /devices is structured... is pci@0,0 equivalent to saying major number 0 minor number 0?
[23:16:31] <sommerfeld> no.
[23:16:37] <sommerfeld> that's PCI bus numbering
[23:16:44] <sommerfeld> has nothing to do with major/minor number space
[23:16:45] <oasnebi> hmm, not familiar with that
[23:16:50] <Pietro_S> oasnebi: you have lot's of choices, SFE repository, blastwave and others
[23:17:01] <sommerfeld> major number is based on which driver attaches
[23:17:04] <oasnebi> oh, right i've heard of blastwave, i'll research all the others
[23:17:05] <oasnebi> thanks
[23:17:07] <sommerfeld> minor space is managed by the driver
[23:17:21] <oasnebi> right
[23:17:24] <RElling> devfsadm -c audio should recreate the /dev audio links
[23:17:32] <oasnebi> RElling: that might do the trick
[23:18:14] <oasnebi> is devfs a kernel level interface? or is it like udev?
[23:18:29] <oasnebi> devfsadm -c audio didn't do the trick :(
[23:18:59] <sommerfeld> The /devices filesystem shows the physical topology of the device connections
[23:19:06] <sommerfeld> PCI busses can be hierarchical
[23:19:19] <quasi> devfsadm -Cv
[23:20:00] <oasnebi> quasi: the cleanup returned nothing
[23:24:07] <oasnebi> i'm going to reboot just to start with a fresh system to play with
[23:25:33] *** derchris has quit IRC
[23:25:41] <oasnebi> also is there a difference between reboot and shutdown -y -g0 -i6 ?
[23:25:47] <oasnebi> besides the obvious...
[23:25:50] *** derchris has joined #opensolaris
[23:26:36] <PerterB> depends what you think is obvious
[23:26:56] <quasi> oasnebi: yes there is - but init 6 is so much easier to type ;)
[23:27:38] <oasnebi> PerterB: i meant besides the fact that the commands actually are not the same (strncmp wise)
[23:27:40] <sommerfeld> shutdown/init 6 will stop SMF services, run rcN.d kill scripts prior to reboot, giving daemons a chance to shut down
[23:28:07] <PerterB> oasnebi: ah, then yes, big difference as sommerfeld just showed
[23:28:39] <quasi> shutdown without  -i 6 is probably a bad idea
[23:28:52] <sommerfeld> reboot will just tell the kernel to shut down & reboot.  kernel will do a graceful sync & shutdown of filesystems
[23:29:03] <PerterB> although, "On x86 systems, reboot may also update the boot archive as needed to ensure a successful reboot" which implies it does a bit more these days
[23:29:21] <sommerfeld> PerterB: but that's about it.
[23:29:24] <oasnebi> yeah, i was wondering what that "updating .../archive" was all about
[23:29:30] <PerterB> sommerfeld: fair enough
[23:29:36] *** gm152 has joined #opensolaris
[23:29:48] <oasnebi> so the cleanest way to reboot then is to use the reboot command?
[23:29:51] <quasi> PerterB: I've seen shutdown skip the boot archive when -i6 wasn't used
[23:30:06] <sommerfeld> well, the boot archive is only updated if it's out of date
[23:30:09] <PerterB> oasnebi: just reboot with "init 6" and you won't need to worry your pretty little head about it ;)
[23:30:21] <sommerfeld> depends on what you mean by "cleanest"
[23:30:50] <PerterB> in fact, reboot is the least clean aside from uadmin
[23:30:59] <quasi> sommerfeld: one of the linux dweebs we had on staff got caught in trouble with patches not being applied when using shutdown -r
[23:31:02] <oasnebi> sommerfeld: ah, so reboot forces the update even if it's not needed? in other words, the shutdown -y -i6 -g0 is cleaner?
[23:31:40] <oasnebi> quasi: i'm a 'linux dweeb' but if you have someone on staff, you get a chance to interview them, right...? i'd say the hiring manager is partially at fault then
[23:31:47] <sommerfeld> reboot (and bootadm, for that matter) only updates the archive if a file contained in it changed.  i shutdown my laptop with "bootadm update-archive; uadmin 2 0" because it's fastest and it's clean enough for my purposes.
[23:32:12] <quasi> oasnebi: he was hired to hack leeenux
[23:32:17] <PerterB> sommerfeld: hardcore :)
[23:32:26] <oasnebi> solaris on a laptop? does that mean there's decent wireless support in solaris?
[23:32:42] <sommerfeld> oasnebi: if you're careful in your choice of wireless cards.
[23:33:02] <oasnebi> sommerfeld: is there something similar to project evil or ndiswrapper in solaris?
[23:33:17] <palowoda> Atheros based wireless cards are the best.
[23:33:29] <oasnebi> ah, so just like the others then
[23:33:34] <sommerfeld> oasnebi: my laptop vendor wasn't, but was courteous enough to have the wireless minipci card be user-accessable behind an access panel.
[23:34:07] <sommerfeld> oasnebi: project evil ndiswrappers have been ported to solaris.  but folks are generally much happier replacing mini-pci cards and using the native atheros driver.
[23:34:35] <palowoda> ndis wrappers are a rat hole.
[23:34:38] <sommerfeld> (speculation i've heard is that the ndis drivers themselves are often crappy..)
[23:36:00] <oasnebi> grr, a full reboot resulted in gnome desktop giving me the e-finger again
[23:36:01] *** PPRO has quit IRC
[23:36:08] <oasnebi> still a red line through the volume control
[23:36:39] <oasnebi> by default the audio driver wasn't loaded after the reboot so i'll modload it now
[23:36:59] *** jamesd_ has quit IRC
[23:37:11] *** jamesd__ has joined #opensolaris
[23:37:18] <palowoda> I'd say try the OSS drivers but they have been screwing up on the latest builds.  Maybe Jurgens latest 810 audio driver works.
[23:37:45] <oasnebi> i'm on snv_57 (what the opensolaris DVDs came with a week or two ago)
[23:37:54] <oasnebi> which is why i want to be able to update this machine soon
[23:38:06] <palowoda> Man that is old. Try the OSS drivers.
[23:38:22] <quasi> oasnebi: if i810 doesn't load by default, then most likely it doesn't know that it should load for your card
[23:38:46] <oasnebi> palowoda: will do
[23:39:14] <oasnebi> wait.. wtf is lx_audio?
[23:39:17] <palowoda> oasnebi: http://www.opensound.com/    Just don't do it with builds 66 and newer.
[23:39:19] <oasnebi> why is it loaded by default?
[23:39:30] <oasnebi> palowoda: yeah, i've got the package downloaded already
[23:41:08] <quasi> oasnebi: try /usr/X11/bin/scanpci -v to find details about your card
[23:41:51] *** sahafeez has left #opensolaris
[23:42:04] <quasi> oasnebi: lx_audio may be loading itself for the card and blocking audio810
[23:42:18] <quasi> modinfo|grep audio
[23:42:19] <quasi> 165 fffffffff40ed000   4600  40   1  audio810 (mixer audio driver 1.9)
[23:42:19] <quasi> 167 fffffffff41be000   3c18   -   1  audiosup (Audio Device Support 1.24)
[23:45:05] <palowoda> Brandz and lx_audio should just be scraped.  It's never going to be fully supported.  Let's beat dead horses.
[23:46:56] <quasi> palowoda: let's just leave that for now - I want it to support skype ;)
[23:49:52] <oasnebi> quasi: so if i modunload lx_audio and then try devfsadm -c audio, you think it might work? i just rebooted the system so i have a clean variable-free (for the most part) system to install OSS on, but i might give this a go first
[23:50:25] <quasi> oasnebi: works for me[tm] ;)
[23:51:13] <quasi> but then I don't have brandz
[23:56:51] <Triskelios> lx_audio hasn't caused problems for me, it likely doesn't access the audio device until it's opened in the zone
