[01:26:02] <seagull_7> Hi Sean, i need info on actually using it and if it? appropriate to use it for my specific problem
[01:31:15] <seagull_7> Does anyone here know what to do when a device ID doesn't match the one that the driver is set up for?
[01:32:55] <ShadowHntr> um...
[01:33:01] <ShadowHntr> enter it into /etc/driver_aliases
[01:33:09] <ShadowHntr> i think
[01:33:17] <_mary_kate_> except don't edit driver_aliases, use update_drv
[01:33:58] <seagull_7> ah, so you do use update_drv in this instance.  Can you help me form the proper command that i should use for my specific case?
[01:35:20] <seanmcg> the third example in the man page for update_drv should be what you want

[01:50:28] <sstallion> seagull_7: update_drv -i 'alias' <driver>
[01:50:39] <sstallion> i.e.: update_drv '"pci10ec,8029"" re
[01:50:51] <sstallion> (insert a -i between update_drv and the alias)
[01:50:57] <seagull_7> ok, i tried that but i didn't use the single quotes, only used the double quotes, and it rebooted my computer
[01:51:20] <sstallion> what did you try to attach?
[01:51:25] <seanmcg> need _all_ those quotes...
[01:51:26] <seagull_7> i guess you need both single and double quotes in there?
[01:51:29] <seagull_7> ok
[01:51:32] <seagull_7> will try it again
[01:51:41] <seagull_7> trying to set up a wireless card
[01:52:01] <seagull_7> i will retry with all the quotes
[01:52:27] <sstallion> reboot with the command: reboot -- -dr
[01:53:00] <sstallion> if it does not attach after reboot, try update_drv again with all of the quotes - if it panics again, you will be dropped into kmdb rather than just rebooting
[01:53:02] <seagull_7> ok, does having a wireless card, and a wired ethernet confuse nwam?
[01:53:18] <sstallion> it shouldnt afaik
[01:53:24] <seagull_7> ok thanks
[01:53:27] * sstallion doesnt use nwam
[01:53:37] *** postwait_ has joined #opensolaris
[01:53:55] <seanmcg> the whole reason for using nwam is with two or more nics, be they wired or otherwise
[01:54:26] <seagull_7> ok :)
[01:54:58] <seanmcg> unplug the wired nic and nwam should scan the wifi and throw up a list of scanned hubs (if you're logged into the desktop)
[01:55:06] *** spiki has quit IRC
[01:55:26] <seagull_7> I like the sound of that!   ok will try it
[01:55:27] <seanmcg> or it'll tell you that it connected to foo wifi.
[01:55:56] <seanmcg> thats the am in nwam, auto magic :)
[01:56:48] *** rv- has joined #opensolaris
[01:57:31] <seagull_7> ok, when i tried to add it as a alias it told me it was already set up, i looked and indeed, it's in the alias file, aparently it updated jus before it rebooted last time
[01:57:45] <sstallion> seagull_7: issue: dladm show-phys
[01:57:46] *** rv- has left #opensolaris
[01:58:12] <seagull_7> it's showing the wired interface only
[01:58:45] <seanmcg> ifconfig -a ?
[01:58:46] <seagull_7> when i issued the dladm command as you indicated
[01:58:51] <seagull_7> ifconfig -a
[01:58:54] <seagull_7> ok
[01:59:09] <seagull_7> just showing 2 loopback and the wired
[01:59:58] <seanmcg> dmesg | grep <your wifi card's nic eg iwk>
[01:59:58] <seagull_7> i don't think the driver is loaded
[02:00:07] <seanmcg> modinfo | grep <nic name>
[02:00:28] <seanmcg> ...that will show if the driver (aka module) is loaded
[02:00:33] <seagull_7> not loaded
[02:00:36] <sstallion> probably failing to attach
[02:00:42] <sstallion> seagull_7: issue: update_drv <driver>
[02:00:45] <sstallion> don't specify an alias
[02:01:32] <seagull_7> Driver (ral) successfully added to system but failed to attach
[02:02:11] <sstallion> doesnt sound like your card is supported with that driver
[02:02:21] <seagull_7> the driver originally had alias pci1814,201  I added pci1814,301
[02:02:42] <seagull_7> it's the same model number card. i guess they changed something with the chip?
[02:02:52] <sstallion> its possible
[02:03:20] <sstallion> 1814 is a vendor ID
[02:03:25] <seagull_7> yes
[02:03:36] <sstallion> the device id's are different, so it suggests that there is a difference between the two
[02:03:54] <seagull_7> ok
[02:04:01] <sstallion> best thing to do is to contact the driver developer requesting support for your chipset
[02:04:03] <seagull_7> should there be messages somewhere in the log?
[02:04:10] <sstallion> depends on the driver implementation
[02:04:28] <sstallion> typically the fact that it fails to attach is considered 'enough'
[02:04:35] <seagull_7> lol
[02:04:49] <sstallion> seagull_7: ?
[02:04:54] <sstallion> if a driver doesnt work it doesnt work
[02:04:57] <seagull_7> ok
[02:05:00] <sstallion> its not going to hold your hand :)
[02:05:30] <sstallion> shoot off a mail to driver-discuss or networking-discuss
[02:05:33] <sstallion> someone may be able to help
[02:05:52] <sstallion> I'm not familiar with ral, but let me see if i can dig anything up
[02:05:52] <seagull_7> ok, i will do it, thanks
[02:06:03] <seagull_7> ralink 2500 wireless
[02:06:17] <sstallion> was the driver part of ON ?
[02:06:28] <sstallion> ahh here it is
[02:07:13] <seagull_7> EW-7128g Edimax card
[02:07:29] <seagull_7> the driver was already in opensolaris
[02:08:04] <seagull_7> it's a pci card in a desktop computer
[02:08:30] <sstallion> interesting
[02:08:31] <seagull_7> i hate laptop computers, i use my desktop like a laptop :)
[02:08:36] <sstallion> driver doesnt appear to use DMA
[02:09:04] *** madnex has joined #opensolaris
[02:09:05] <sstallion> the driver seems to suggest support for a 2560 only

[02:09:16] *** ceil_ has quit IRC
[02:09:33] *** ceil420 has joined #opensolaris
[02:09:40] <sstallion> I would suggest sending an email to request support for your card to damien.bergamini at free dot fr and driver-discuss
[02:09:49] <sstallion> (bergamini is the original author of the driver)
[02:10:12] <seagull_7> ok, where are you finding this info?
[02:10:19] <sstallion> the driver source
[02:10:24] <seagull_7> ah ok
[02:10:32] <seagull_7> is that from ON?
[02:10:36] <sstallion> hrmm it does use DMA, but attach suggests PIO
[02:10:43] <sstallion> yes
[02:10:52] <sstallion> usr/src/uts/common/io/ral
[02:10:57] <seagull_7> I'm planning on installing ON in the near future
[02:11:11] <seagull_7> are you compiling with sun compiler or gnu?
[02:11:13] <sstallion> most of the things I work on are wired, so im not very familiar with wireless devices
[02:11:23] <sstallion> studio
[02:11:28] <seagull_7> ok
[02:12:25] <seagull_7> Thanks for your help tonight, and mary and sean too.  You all helped me out a lot!
[02:13:04] <sstallion> anytime... email is your best bet at this point; it may be a fairly straightforward addition, but you never know until you ask
[02:13:21] <seagull_7> ok
[02:14:04] <seagull_7> i think this driver comes from bsd
[02:14:20] <seagull_7> it just seems i read that somewhere tonight
[02:14:55] <sstallion> it uses DDI/DKI interfaces - its possible that it could have been ported or the BSD impl was used as an inspiration
[02:15:06] <sstallion> the license suggests a single author so I would suspect it be the later
[02:16:10] <seanmcg> the opensrc site for the ral gpl'd src: http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com
[02:16:29] <sstallion> there are no gpl'd bits in ON
[02:17:04] <seanmcg> aye, though ralink tech may have given a non-gpl'd reference driver out..
[02:21:25] <sstallion> I would suspect if that were the case, the code would still retain the original copyright
[02:21:45] <sstallion> its not uncommon to see drivers cross polinated between operating systems
[02:21:54] <sstallion> particularly between the BSD's
[02:21:57] <seagull_7> I sent an email off to the author

[02:24:29] <seagull_7> oops, it' off help
[02:24:42] <seagull_7> yeah it says that on the opensolaris page too

[02:27:19] <seagull_7> well, maybe it just says there that the EW-7128 uses their chip

[05:07:08] *** Ma1 has joined #opensolaris
[05:07:26] <techqbert> I just wiped the old data off my working old linux raid1 figuring stable osol + zfs was going to be fine before i move data from /home/$user to /tank/documents.  damn it guys.
[05:08:08] <wonko2> there are these things called backups, do you have them?
[05:08:47] <wonko2> if not you'll find you won't get much sympathy from us. ;)
[05:08:59] <techqbert> wonko2: don't get sarcastic.  I figured osol would be okay literally thirty minutes after I wiped my raid1 backup
[05:09:31] <wonko2> until you made a change to your system and broke it. ;)
[05:09:48] <wonko2> always assume any change, no matter how insignificant will totally hose your machine
[05:10:28] <wonko2> there is a reason my primary solaris box is still running build 64a and hasn't been upgraded yet
[05:10:31] <wonko2> ;)
[05:11:37] *** ninjaslim has quit IRC
[05:11:42] <wonko2> can you boot into something like milax and import your zpool?
[05:11:58] *** not-me-guv has quit IRC
[05:12:29] <techqbert> apparently my /home/directory wasn't in rpool
[05:12:55] <techqbert> wonko2: any idea how to get the data back if its not in rpool?
[05:13:26] <wonko2> where else would it have been?  did you have multiple pools?
[05:13:35] *** h3sp4wn has quit IRC
[05:14:46] <techqbert> wonko2: no.  under /rpool/, there was root and boot (both empty).  when I did zfs scrub rpool it did take a while though.  I let osol200805 automatically partition upon installation
[05:15:47] <techqbert> wonko2: perhaps my unpopulated /rpool/ explains why my beadm never worked??  what should the sensible defaults be for the osol partitioner?
[05:17:04] <wonko2> i can't speak for 200805 as i won't touch that crap, but osol just makes a handful of zfs filesystems in rpool

[05:18:49] <techqbert> wonko2: does b97 come by cd or dvd?
[05:19:09] <techqbert> so how do I get at a zfs file system that is not in a pool.  I don't get it.
[05:20:14] <wonko2> you don't as there is no such thing
[05:20:22] <wonko2> all zfs filesystems are part of a zpool
[05:20:26] <techqbert> in linux, i would just run gentoo minimal off cd and mount the drive, or better yet just chroot and recompile the kernel.
[05:20:40] <wonko2> google milax

[05:27:48] * techqbert is burning milax
[05:28:53] <Gnu_Raiz> Why oh why doesn't the release team for sxce make an iso that fits on 750 MB cdrs?
[05:29:27] <Gnu_Raiz> I burned two coasters and had to use a dvd just to get the extra 100 mb I needed.
[05:30:08] <victori_> anyone run postgres on zfs? safe to disable fsync option? since all operations are atomic on zfs?
[05:30:40] <Gnu_Raiz> the iso was 848 mbs.
[05:31:15] <Gnu_Raiz> even with taiyo yuden media, I could not overburn.
[05:33:01] <e^ipi> Gnu_Raiz: why are you using the CD's?
[05:33:04] <e^ipi> just use the DVD
[05:33:11] <e^ipi> CD's are occasionally broken
[05:33:37] <e^ipi> for that matter, why use either, just grab the DVD iso and jumpstart the thing
[05:33:42] <Gnu_Raiz> I had a stack of yt and thought that I would use some.
[05:33:51] <e^ipi> that's silly
[05:34:03] <e^ipi> at the very least "burn CD1, boot, install off the DVD iso"
[05:34:25] <Gnu_Raiz> I built a new computer and did not want to use the may iso of opensolaris as I wanted the sxce to be more current.
[05:34:51] <e^ipi> so... why didn't you download the DVD iso?
[05:36:16] <_mary_kate_> IPS and SXCE are about the same currency
[05:36:21] <_mary_kate_> (one build behind, at the moment)

[05:41:40] <RavenSlay3r> *plug the unbootable drive in as a slave drive that is
[05:42:17] <wonko2> no luck with milax?
[05:42:38] <RavenSlay3r> now why can't multiple clients open a file with write-access at the same time?
[05:42:54] <techqbert> wonko2: i'm not quite sure where to start.  zpool import tank or rpool can't even be forced.
[05:43:00] <RavenSlay3r> seeing as they only need a write-lock when their actually writing data?
[05:43:27] <wonko2> why not? what's the error?
[05:43:34] <techqbert> RavenSlay3r: that sounds great but one strange issue I have is that it appears that osol 200805 didn't plunk my ~/ (where important data is) in the rpool
[05:43:43] <techqbert> wonko2: its saying the disk in use.
[05:44:28] <techqbert> it says failed when I try the -f flag
[05:44:48] <wonko2> that's rather odd
[05:44:59] <wonko2> what does format say about your partition table?
[05:45:24] <techqbert> wonko2: all available.
[05:45:43] <wonko2> ?
[05:46:30] <RavenSlay3r> techqbert: I guess i can't help you in terms of ZFS - thats just what i've done numerous times in the non-ZFS world... sorry :-/
[05:46:50] <techqbert> wow now its saying rpool doesn't exist
[05:47:47] <techqbert> RavenSlay3r: I understand.  I'll probably try compiling a gentoo kernel with zfs-fuse if I have no luck here.  my freebsd machine sounds appealing but its embedded.
[05:48:11] <wonko2> techqbert: are you sure that disk is ok?
[05:48:33] <wonko2> zpools don't just disappear. :)
[05:50:28] <techqbert> ah wait.  it is mounted but some mounts failed.  /rpool/home, /rpool, /rpool/home/export, /rpool/ROOT failed
[05:50:47] <RavenSlay3r> techqbert: I don't know for sure, but I've heard the linux/zfs implementation isn't 100% and since Sun invented ZFS, i can't imagine you'd be any better off ...
[05:51:07] <RavenSlay3r> unfortunetly solaris brings a bit of a learning curve with it i've discovered
[05:51:14] <e^ipi> linux/zfs is totally fucking broken
[05:51:18] <e^ipi> it's not just "not 100%"
[05:51:31] <RavenSlay3r> e^ipi: thanks for clarifying ;)

[05:52:08] * wonko2 bows
[05:52:09] <techqbert> /rpool/boot worked though.  anybody in here having working/updated osol 200805?  my unix can't be found at /platform/i86pc/kernel/$ISADIR/unix -B $ZFS-BOOTFS
[05:52:14] <e^ipi> techqbert: you can't mount that stuff for some reason?
[05:52:25] <e^ipi> check the mountpoint ( zfs get mountpoint ) and make sure it's empty
[05:53:26] <techqbert> e^ipi: under root debug mode on non-booting BE on the machine that won't boot up, or from milax?
[05:54:15] <e^ipi> wait, you're not booted in to the fs in question?
[05:54:23] <e^ipi> oh, okay, that makes a lot more sense
[05:54:30] <e^ipi> you'll need to change the mountpoint around
[05:54:46] <e^ipi> zfs set mountpoint=/tmp/home rpool/home
[05:54:57] <e^ipi> where /tmp/home is anywhere you feel like
[05:55:04] <e^ipi> (that is empty)
[05:55:07] *** LeftWing__ has joined #OpenSolaris
[05:55:32] <e^ipi> because it's a root pool it doesn't inherit it's mountpoint properly so it still tries to mount to /export/home
[05:55:40] <e^ipi> which probably won't work
[05:56:25] *** LeftWing has quit IRC
[05:56:43] <techqbert> e^ipi: i'm following ya but that mount statement doesn't work
[05:57:47] <techqbert> invalid dataset name under /rpool/home/
[05:58:00] <e^ipi> not /rpool/home
[05:58:04] <e^ipi> rpool/home
[05:58:09] <e^ipi> note the lack of '/'
[05:58:25] *** Ma1 has quit IRC
[05:58:52] <techqbert> heh nice.  mount failed.  property may be set but unable to reshare filesystem
[05:59:32] <techqbert> e^ipi: something to note.  I recently mkdir /rpool/home/ before I rebooted my osol 200805 machine when it didn't come up.  /rpool/home/ has nothing in it.  /export/home/jim/ was where my data was at
[05:59:53] <e^ipi> remove sharing ( zfs set sharenfs=off rpool/home ) and do the same with 'sharesmb' instead of 'sharenfs'
[06:00:09] <e^ipi> well, whatever, it'll inherit the mountpoint
[06:00:18] <wonko2> rpool/home is set to mount at /export/home not /rpool/home
[06:00:28] <wonko2> so nothing will ever be at /rpool/home
[06:02:58] <techqbert> e^ipi: this is so bizarre.  i did zfs get mountpoint | less and found that my working opensolaris root was /rpool/ROOT/opensolaris.  I mount that under milax at /media/osolroot, I go to /media/osolroot/export.  ls.  nothing! no /media/osolroot/export/home/jim/
[06:03:56] <wonko2> home is a seperate filesystem

[06:04:43] <wonko2> check its mountpoint property
[06:05:25] <techqbert> ah strange.  when I mounted rpool earlier.  the milax file system grabbed my original /export/home/jim/ and put it right there on milax.
[06:06:24] <techqbert> wonko2: e^ipi: thanks for the heads up guys.  you guys got a linux/bsd guy thinking and working his way through this new os.
[06:09:10] * techqbert is cp'ing from /export/home/jim/backup to /tank/backup/ the latter is a 1.2tb raidz
[06:09:43] <wonko2> glad we could help

[06:10:14] <wonko2> i hope this experience hasn't soured you to solaris. :)
[06:12:44] <wonko2> i'm really liking compiz, but do i like it enough to continue to put up with this java desktop crap?
[06:14:13] <Auralis_> that java desktop crap is just normal gnome crap
[06:14:23] <wonko2> yes
[06:14:35] <wonko2> which is why i don't like it, i'm not a fan of gnome either
[06:15:01] <Auralis_> just install a wm of your liking and be done with it
[06:15:01] <techqbert> http://opensolaris.org/os/project/indiana/resources/rn3/#Update_Inst I think the release notes would have saved me.  hrm.  so I heard beadm is superceding liveupgrade in sxce soon.  is this true?
[06:15:58] <techqbert> wonko2: yeah compiz is pretty decent on my linux machines.  i can stomach gnome with compiz when I'm away from fluxbox ;)  I hope updating the default osol200805 will make SUNWsmbfs stsable
[06:16:18] <techqbert> I really should be getting work done for school rather than dabbling in a new platform though
[06:16:32] <wonko2> mmmmm, fluxbox

[06:17:41] <wonko2> i just got a new laptop and decided to put osol on it
[06:17:53] <wonko2> i wasn't even trying to, i was just clicking on things in the appearances section
[06:17:58] <wonko2> and managed to turn on compiz
[06:18:16] <wonko2> which i've never used before (it doesn't work well on the FireGL at work)
[06:19:29] <wonko2> the cube is cute, but i could live without it

[07:01:01] <_mary_kate_> it's much more interesting to use things like that to make the desktop better to use
[07:02:07] <wonko2> being a fluxbox user, a nice looking desktop isn't high on my list of things i care about.
[07:02:18] <wonko2> but the "box unfold" is actually quite useful
[07:02:32] *** aghaster has joined #opensolaris
[07:02:33] <aghaster> Hi
[07:02:36] <wonko2> it's too bad i can't run the bits of compiz i like with fluxbox. ;)
[07:03:28] <aghaster> I tried to install a driver manually and now my opensolaris system won't boot. I get the maintenance mode but my partition is mounted as read-only
[07:03:41] <aghaster> how can I mount a partition in Solaris with read/write access?
[07:04:05] <aghaster> fdisk -l does not list the disks and partitions as it would on Linux so I'm lost
[07:08:00] <e^ipi> no, but format(1M) does
[07:11:33] <aghaster> ok
[07:12:51] <aghaster> ok, I found that my partition is /dev/dsk/c4d0s1
[07:15:35] *** purserj has joined #opensolaris
[07:16:38] <Tempt> wonko2: Fluxbox *is* a nice looking desktop

[07:21:11] <aghaster> mount -F ? /dev/dsk/c4d0s0 /
[07:21:22] <Tempt> mount -o remount,rw /dev/dsk/c4d0s0 /

[07:22:48] <wonko2> Tempt: i think so too. :)
[07:22:50] <aghaster> it complains about "/dev/dsk/c4d0s1 is not this fstype"

[07:23:44] *** fr4g has quit IRC
[07:24:32] <aghaster> yes, it is ZFS
[07:24:34] <Tempt> If your root filesystem is on ZFS, you won't be poking at it with the mount command.
[07:24:47] <wonko2> Tempt: will ZFS Root mount RO?
[07:24:51] <wonko2> i didn't think it did that
[07:24:55] *** paul has quit IRC
[07:24:55] <e^ipi> it doesn't
[07:24:57] <Tempt> I've not had to try to remount a ZFS root, so I don't have a stack of answers.
[07:25:01] *** paul___ has joined #opensolaris
[07:25:09] <aghaster> well that's what happens, my file system is mounted as read-only

[07:26:16] <wonko2> e^ipi: is it just me, or has every broken opensolaris issue today been for indiana and not real opensolaris? ;)
[07:26:47] <e^ipi> *cough*
[07:28:50] <Tempt> A stunning observation.
[07:29:05] <wonko2> i'll go back to being quiet now. :)
[07:29:27] <Tempt> I should fire up a modern SXCE on this T2000 in an LDOM. That should be a cackle.

[07:47:48] <aghaster> the thing is... I cannot even run man

[07:48:41] <aghaster> oh, thanks
[07:49:38] <Tempt> How exactly did you break your system to this extent?
[07:51:11] <aghaster> I copied a driver to /kernel/drv/amd64/
[07:51:23] <aghaster> and then edited /etc/driver_aliases to add it
[07:51:42] <aghaster> and when I reboot, it now tells me that this was a shitty move and that I need to fix that
[07:51:59] <aghaster> and for some reason the file system is read-only
[07:52:00] <e^ipi> so you already know your solution, excellent.
[07:52:11] <aghaster> so I cannot revert what I did.
[07:53:40] <Tempt> what, no snapshot?
[07:53:44] <aghaster> I've been trying to get write access to that file for two hours now
[07:53:45] <aghaster> :(

[11:51:45] <cmihai> You want gnat, that's gcc4-ada or something. Look on Blastwave's pkg list.
[11:51:54] <evocallaghan> Do you use GPS as your IDe btw ?
[11:51:55] <cmihai> EMACS has ADA mode btw :-).
[11:51:59] <cmihai> Nope, EMACS.
[11:52:07] <evocallaghan> ah yes
[11:52:21] <evocallaghan> I'm looking into bring ada support to NetBeans
[11:52:23] <kaleb> cmihai: so the SXCE is the way to go for the real solaris but recent?
[11:52:25] <evocallaghan> That would be good
[11:52:35] <evocallaghan> kaleb:Yes.
[11:52:37] <cmihai> kaleb: It is for me.
[11:52:40] <e^ipi> kaleb: that's what I use
[11:52:47] * trygvis too
[11:52:53] <cmihai> OpenSolaris takes a different dirrection, that's all.
[11:53:09] <cmihai> It's as you'd say... a Solaris distro.
[11:53:12] <cmihai> the Ubuntu of Solaris.
[11:53:13] <cmihai> hehe
[11:53:37] <trygvis> hehe
[11:53:42] <evocallaghan> Wait till OpenSolaris2008.11 final else use SXCE
[11:53:57] <evocallaghan> Its rather broken at the moment and it could just put you off
[11:54:21] <evocallaghan> cmihai:http://forums.netbeans.org/topic1559.html
[11:54:50] <evocallaghan> Whats the deal with Solaris and N:M theading, does it work, have we got it?
[11:55:19] <e^ipi> go pick up a copy of solaris internals , it explains it in great detail
[11:55:35] <evocallaghan> No money at the moment :p
[11:56:22] <evocallaghan> Is it anyone in particular on Google, I was looking but cant find the right details
[11:57:16] <e^ipi> http://www.sun.com/software/whitepapers/solaris9/multithread.pdf
[11:58:21] <e^ipi> the long and short of it is that solaris moved away from n:m in favour of 1:1 because it's more efficient
[11:59:35] <evocallaghan> ok
[11:59:53] <evocallaghan> Thanks, I was just looking into why NetBSd had it
[12:00:06] <e^ipi> netbsd isn't well known for being a speed demon
[12:00:22] <e^ipi> or threading particularly well
[12:00:26] <evocallaghan> Thanks for the heads up, I am off to get something to eat
[12:00:31] <trygvis> is there any operating system that doesn't support n:m?
[12:00:38] <evocallaghan> ha! funny how you say 'demon'
[12:00:51] <e^ipi> oh it supports it
[12:00:55] <cmihai> Don't really see the point of a NetBeans based ADA IDE, but whatever. It's just bound to be syntax highlighting support, parens matching support, code foliding support and running gnat for you.
[12:01:07] <cmihai> With hints of code refactoring and UML something or other never working
[12:01:16] <cmihai> And maybe a debugger.
[12:01:18] <cmihai> Stick to EMACS.
[12:01:35] <e^ipi> i could never get IDE's to work for me
[12:01:42] <e^ipi> they always just get in my way and frustrate me
[12:01:44] <codestr0m> my IPS update failed with this ( http://rafb.net/p/ExUHaZ39.html )  OSError: [Errno 90] Number of symbolic links encountered during path name traversal exceeds MAXSYMLINKS: '/tmp/tmpfMb41V/var/svc/profile/inetd_generic.xml'
[12:01:57] <Tempt> while :; do vi code ; compile code ; run executable ; done
[12:02:01] <Tempt> IDE of champions
[12:02:03] <evocallaghan> cmihai: I do like NetBeans as it a nice IDE for *me* to use and supports a lot of stuff, like Java GUI builder etc
[12:02:20] <e^ipi> Tempt: typically what i do yeah, but why are you pissing around with leaving vi to compile & run?
[12:02:30] <e^ipi> you can run commands from within vim itself
[12:02:35] <Tempt> Very true.
[12:02:37] <evocallaghan> Tempt: I have NetBeans in vi mode ;)
[12:02:42] <cmihai> evocallaghan: sure, but it's for JAVA.
[12:02:43] <Tempt> But that's harder to explain in a few characters.
[12:02:52] <cmihai> Trying to make it work for other languages ends up in miserable failure.
[12:03:07] <Tempt> Besides, I prefer to use screen to jump between editor and runtime
[12:03:14] <Tempt> Yet another winning day for screen.
[12:03:21] <cmihai> And I KNOW about miserable failure. I have 40GB of Eclipse stuff on my disk.
[12:03:22] <evocallaghan> I like to have *one* IDE to fullfill my needs
[12:03:27] <cmihai> Eclipse.
[12:03:32] <cmihai> It has EVERYTHING
[12:03:35] <e^ipi> vim *nod*
[12:03:44] <cmihai> hehe
[12:03:46] <e^ipi> balls to your "IDE"
[12:04:01] <cmihai> Note: having everything in your IDE will just end up with a bunch of incompatible plugins that kill your IDE when you update.
[12:04:02] <e^ipi> if i wanted it to autocomplete my class names incorrectly, i'd have typed them incorrectly
[12:04:03] <evocallaghan> I hate Eclpse !
[12:04:09] <evocallaghan> now that is a crap IDE
[12:04:26] *** anilg has joined #opensolaris
[12:04:35] <evocallaghan> e^ipi:haha
[12:04:36] <Tempt> Yeah, that must be why 90% of java developers use it.
[12:04:42] *** FallenHitokiri has quit IRC
[12:04:47] <Tempt> Prolonged exposure to Java may cause use of Eclipse.
[12:04:56] <cmihai> The other 10% use something like Rational something or other, which is commercial eclipse :P
[12:05:00] * evocallaghan gives up java
[12:05:01] <codestr0m> Tempt: umm. 90% of java developers use it because 90% of java developers are slow by design to charge more money
[12:05:14] <codestr0m> and too lazy to invest the time/mentality to learn something new
[12:05:21] <Tempt> As per my health warning before.
[12:05:44] <e^ipi> unfortunately most of "something new" is shite
[12:05:54] <codestr0m> there's also the occasional stupid company which forces people to use it in the paste because project files were incompatible.. not the case so much anymore
[12:06:05] <evocallaghan> Well cool, NetBeans works for me (C/ASM/PHP/Java/HTML)
[12:06:06] <cmihai> Try doing code refactoring, UML, reverse engeneering, code generation, and support features like EJB3 without Eclipse :-)
[12:06:09] <e^ipi> the only web framework that isn't a total piece of crap is JavaEE
[12:06:21] <e^ipi> well, i'm told .net is actually pretty decent, but it only runs on windows
[12:06:27] <codestr0m> e^ipi: while use vim for quite a few quick hacks. if you use it for java.. that's umm. less than optimal imho
[12:06:38] <Tempt> Well, there *is* that .net clone named after a disease.
[12:06:40] <e^ipi> codestr0m: then you're not using it right
[12:07:11] *** Openfree has quit IRC
[12:07:35] <cmihai> And try doing all the XML and ant bull in vi.
[12:07:40] <codestr0m> e^ipi: ok.. so you run your app and get a stack. how to do you quickly analyze that and navigation where you want..  inside intellij I also have vim syntax so can do everything with normal vim in the editor and use other resources
[12:09:56] <cmihai> Try doing XML + XML Schema / DTD / Relax and WSDL / SOAP stuff in vim :-)
[12:10:30] <evocallaghan> Its fine, with NetBeans in vim mode

[15:17:33] *** Rarok has quit IRC
[15:18:58] <Tempt> webar7: You'll need to test VirtualBox with FreeBSD
[15:19:09] <Tempt> webar7: It might work, it might not be so hot.
[15:19:11] <webar7> hmm k
[15:19:16] <Tempt> Is this just a playground or is this serious?
[15:19:37] <webar7> the support was not so hot last time (vbox 1.0 on linux )
[15:19:47] <webar7> it worked better with openbsd and linux as guests
[15:19:56] <Tempt> I doubt it's going to be very good. You might do better with OpenBSD overall.
[15:20:04] <webar7> the freebsd instance in the vbox is "expendable"
[15:20:06] <Tempt> I have greater faith in the OpenBSD developers.
[15:20:20] <Tempt> Either/or, what's the end objective here?
[15:20:41] <webar7> but the physical fbsd box is production nfs and storage etc
[15:21:15] <webar7> the second physical box is for monitoring, remote sysloging etc
[15:21:24] <webar7> if it goes down nothing breaks
[15:21:40] <webar7> we just want to virtualize it so we can have a spare machine
[15:21:49] <techqbert> webay7: your migration is possible but I'll tell you that freebsd under vbox in opensolaris, like on other platforms, suffers connectivity issues.  I'm nto sure if I ever get it working but I would advise the full freebsd cd over the netinstall one.
[15:22:12] <webar7> if it's not doable we'll jsut get a cheap pc ... they run bsd well :-)
[15:22:18] <Tempt> Just stuff everyone on Solaris and run up some zones.
[15:22:30] <webar7> hah
[15:22:50] <Tempt> Or, given this is just an R&D project, SXCE + Xen
[15:22:50] <webar7> we'd alos of course be testing the vbox support this way too :-)
[15:23:09] <Tempt> I'd say you'd have better luck with Xen than vbox for freebsd
[15:23:23] <webar7> we are more interested in vbox on opensolaris than solaris itself I think :)
[15:23:29] <Tempt> Why?
[15:23:45] <webar7> migration
[15:23:49] <webar7> gradually
[15:24:15] <Tempt> Migration of *what*?
[15:24:20] <webar7> it took a while to get everything nicely organized on freebsd platform
[15:24:29] <webar7> now we want to start virtualizing
[15:24:50] <Tempt> Hint: I can make better suggestions if I have *some* idea what the application, environment and expectations are.
[15:24:51] <techqbert> Just to clarify, in my previous statement, when I say like on other platforms, I'm referring to the former, freebsd being virtualized in vbox.  once more, it's difficult, perhaps futile, to get connectivity working.
[15:24:54] <webar7> and I think we may have determined that vmware is not what we want :-\
[15:25:02] <webar7> yeah
[15:25:10] <sickness> is it just me or the apache2 httpd binary is missing in latest blastwave apache2 packages? /opt/csw/apache2/sbin/apachectl[100]: /opt/csw/apache2/sbin/httpd: not found [No such file or directory]  :/
[15:25:28] <Gekz> Tempt: sigh.
[15:25:29] <webar7> the support for freebsd as a guest not so hot last time we tried (vbox 1.0 on linux )
[15:25:52] <Tempt> sickness: Ask in #blastwave, they're very helpful in there.
[15:26:05] <webar7> just wondering about opensolaris and vbox 2.0 ...
[15:26:32] <sickness> tnx
[15:26:39] <Tempt> Gekz: You need to note the lack of information provided and therefore the abject lack of helpful reply.
[15:26:45] <webar7> anyway we'll have 2 phys osol and 2 phys fbsd starting next week :)
[15:26:47] * techqbert speaks from experience with vbox 1.6 OSE on osol and gentoo linux.
[15:27:08] <Gekz> Tempt: I'm on your side lol.

[16:24:32] <techqbert> Tempt: sorry to bug you but I know you know this.  zpool destroy pool.  Will that leave my disk completely unformatted?  My SXCE96 disk is having trouble installing on a hd with an indiana root.
[16:24:48] <Tempt> zpool destroy just marks the pool as destroyed.
[16:24:59] <Tempt> You can even un-destroy that pool if you haven't changed anything afterwards
[16:25:11] <Gekz> nice feature.
[16:25:41] <techqbert> Tempt: agh that's what I gathered from reading about zpool destroy.  So how do wipe a disk?
[16:26:02] <Tempt> dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rdsk/blah  ...
[16:26:06] <Tempt> Write zeroes over it
[16:26:43] <techqbert> Tempt: no quicker way like modifying a partition table?
[16:27:04] <Tempt> Well, my way makes 100% absolutely sure. You wouldn't have to write over the whole disk
[16:27:20] <Tempt> dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rdsk/blah bs=1024k count=100
[16:27:23] <Tempt> nice and easy
[16:28:19] <TomJ> techqbert: what are you trying to achieve?  if you want the data securely wiped you need to put something over tghe top of it.  if you just want to use the disk for something else, a plain destroy should suffice
[16:29:24] <techqbert> Tom: I'm going to try to wipe a 300gb disk so maybe sxce96 will be able to install on a hd previously inhabitated by indiana.
[16:30:52] <TomJ> well I'm pretty sure that once you destroy the zpool, you can just make another zpool on that disk without any error
[16:31:10] <TomJ> or use it for UFS or whatever else
[16:32:11] <techqbert> TomJ; Tempt: I'll give that a try and report back my findings.  I'm hoping sxce96 pumped out errors about wrong disk geometry or wrong start sector (should have 3 not 1) because of the indiana rpool.
[16:32:26] <techqbert> zpool destroy rpool it is.

[19:09:32] <codestr0m> which group would you like to ask :P
[19:09:52] <SilverDawn> Hey all, I was just wondering, i've got an old peice of poop lappy, 1000mhz coppermine proc(p3), 256 ram (Maybe a little bit more) and i was wondering how well opensolaris would run on it, Im looking for something to restore it to atleast functional state, All i require for this box is the ability to use flash for my Cisco coarse work. Any ideas
[19:11:01] <codestr0m> SilverDawn: opensolaris 2008.05 will probably run best on modern hardware.. there's other opensolaris based distros though that may fit better for that..
[19:11:09] <techqbert> SilverDawn: Opensolaris needs 512 it or won't boot
[19:11:21] *** _Auralis has joined #opensolaris
[19:11:30] <SilverDawn> ahh
[19:11:40] <SilverDawn> Well, Let me check how much ram it has exactly one moment
[19:13:50] <techqbert> codestr0m: ha I see.  I'm not sure.  I know IPS was great and osol200805 theoretically should have been able to boot if I had updated grub.  then again, beadm seemed broken.
[19:14:17] <techqbert> when sxce fades, think they'll be an easy upgrade path from sxceXXX to osol2009 or so

[19:20:29] <techqbert> TomJ: strangely enough it works now but when I first booted the machine after reboot no such luck
[19:20:41] <techqbert> that's how I add users in other *nix and it works now
[19:21:15] <codestr0m> I added blastwave as an authority.. installed IPSgxine.. used it like normal for a couple weeks.. and today did clean-up (beadm removing old BE) after the big failed image-update.. now it seems all the files going along with the blastwave packages are gone?.... am I missing something
[19:21:15] <techqbert> so I just chown ~/$user since it's also allowed me to make directory in home (strange i know)
[19:21:37] <webar7> is it posible for people in an IRC channel to talk too much and crash the internet :-D

[19:25:13] <TomJ> the idea being that you can have home dirs mounted from remote system via NFS, or on local systems,  but they will always appear as /home
[19:25:47] <TomJ> At least this is how it is in Solaris by default, it might have changed in OpenSol but you if had issues making home dirs in /home that will be why

[21:31:26] <evocallaghan> Such as; V_"out" = A_i x i_"in" . {R_LOAD . R_"out"} over {R_LOAD + R_"out"}
[21:36:36] <scimmia> e^ipi, love \latex too :-)

[21:46:34] <kaleb> I update my os2008.05 to b96 and the opt directory just disappeared, what have I done wrong?
[21:51:19] <kaleb> wooow, zfs really kick ass :)
[21:52:27] *** niq has joined #opensolaris
[21:52:33] <e^ipi> it probably didn't get it's mountpoint updated

[21:54:53] <kaleb> I found like several opts, one for every update, I have made, I am skimming through tutorials now to figure out how to mount the one I want back there
[21:55:12] <e^ipi> you can set the mountpoint property however you like
[21:55:19] <e^ipi> it's in the manpage for zfs
[21:56:45] <kaleb> yeah, looking through it now
[21:57:13] <kaleb> btw how can I make my home/end keys work?
[21:57:20] <e^ipi> man stty

[22:22:59] <kaleb> I have a problem mounting my opt directory, it says  mountpoint or dataset is busy
[22:23:05] *** techqbert has joined #opensolaris
[22:25:13] <techqbert> wow these permissions on my raidz pool are insane!  i can't access them as root or normal user on linux NFS client.  I can't access them as regular user even on the osol machine!  644 and chown by that regular user.
[22:25:45] <e^ipi> did you set any ACL's?
[22:25:47] <e^ipi> ls -V
[22:27:12] *** Tekni has quit IRC
[22:27:19] *** Tekni has joined #opensolaris
[22:27:29] <PerterB> try nfsv3? linux nfsv4 tends to get confused...
[22:28:52] *** The-spiki has joined #opensolaris
[22:29:40] <techqbert> e^ipi: ACL it is.  not intentionally.  I might just zfs set aclinherit=discard along with aclmode unless you guys see a compelling reason to use ACL
[22:29:55] <e^ipi> other than ACL's being awesome
[22:29:56] <e^ipi> ?
[22:30:26] <e^ipi> they let you set arbitrary permissions  ( append only, for example )
[22:30:41] <e^ipi> coarse grained permissions is so 1968
[22:34:56] <kaleb> How do I make /opt available to mount a directory on it?
[22:39:15] <e^ipi> make sure it's empy
[22:39:19] <e^ipi> *empty
[22:39:31] <kaleb> it is empty
[22:39:35] <e^ipi> first make sure that there's no other zfs that's trying to mount there
[22:39:43] <kaleb> hmm
[22:40:01] <kaleb> e^ipi: how do I check that?
[22:41:26] *** art-vandelay has quit IRC
[22:41:41] <e^ipi> kaleb: manual page
[22:41:48] <e^ipi> list the properties
[22:42:41] <kaleb> e^ipi: ok, what am i looking for, I get litteraly thousands of lines doing a zfs get all
[22:43:12] *** asarch has joined #opensolaris
[22:43:30] *** scimmia has joined #opensolaris
[22:43:32] <e^ipi> again, clearly in the man page
[22:43:40] *** scimmia has quit IRC
[22:43:40] <e^ipi> it's the property which would give you the mount point
[22:44:00] <kaleb> all my ten snapshots of opt have /opt as mountpoint. Is that what you mean?
[22:44:46] <e^ipi> yes
[22:44:55] <kaleb> e^ipi: should I set new mountpoints on all of them except the one I want there?
[22:44:57] <e^ipi> but ignore the snapshots
[22:45:12] <e^ipi> you can also set the mountpoint property to be 'none'
[22:45:25] <kaleb> e^ipi: ah, ok I'll will try that thanx
[22:45:34] *** Fish- has quit IRC
[22:47:38] <kaleb> e^ipi: nope, that did not work, still says the same thing, mountpoint or dataset is busy
[22:48:29] *** art-vandelay has joined #opensolaris
[22:50:54] <kaleb> haha, shame on me :) I was standing as root in that directory in another terminal. Thanx again ppl for the help

[22:53:36] *** _setuid_H has joined #opensolaris
[22:54:15] <techqbert> e^ipi: ACL appear to be much like LDAP.  Complex enough for a certification yet pointless at home.  What do you think?
[22:55:36] <jbk> i found acls quite useful at previous jobs
[22:56:14] <e^ipi> techqbert: i use them at home frequently
[22:56:20] <e^ipi> all my log files are notruncate
[22:56:46] <techqbert> jbk: with regards to mounted ZFS filesystems, which user's permissions matter?  owner? root? everyone? i'm just lost.
[22:57:39] <jbk> well you can still use the old unix-style permissions, but with acls, it depends on the acl
[22:58:16] <e^ipi> techqbert: you can set each user individually if you like
[22:59:18] *** _setuid_H has quit IRC
[22:59:34] <e^ipi> that's acl's
[23:00:01] <e^ipi> owner:group:all r:w:x is way too coarse to be able to do a lot of useful stuff with
[23:01:31] <techqbert> e^ipi: question: when I chmod the file system in question, do I have to scvadm restart network/nfs/server restart?
[23:04:20] <e^ipi> no, that'd be a huge pain in the ass
[23:05:32] <techqbert> alright I got work to do and ACL appear complicated and I've yet to tease out less onerous permissions.
[23:06:00] <e^ipi> it's not really that complicated
[23:06:23] <e^ipi> check out the SAG, it's got a pretty good run down of them
[23:06:52] <techqbert> e^ipi: any reasonable guides?  http://docs.huihoo.com/opensolaris/solaris-zfs-administration-guide/html/ch07s04.html isn't too helpful.
[23:07:23] <e^ipi> sag
[23:07:27] <e^ipi> /topic
[23:07:31] <techqbert> solaris admin guide huh
[23:09:23] <TomJ> Any options exist for undeleting on UFS?  multiple folders containg a few very large files each
[23:10:40] <techqbert> e^ipi: how come under the ACL on osol, i have list directory under allow for group, user, and everybody yet when I mount by nfs client on linux machine, I can't just ls with a different user name

[23:49:13] <wonko2> bah, suspend to ram doesn't always work so great it seems on this laptop
[23:49:38] <e^ipi> it works at all?
[23:49:39] <e^ipi> sweet.
[23:50:01] <wonko2> it works sometimes
[23:50:02] <wonko2> ;)
[23:50:10] <wonko2> it suspends fine, but it failed to wake up today
[23:50:41] <wonko2> and since i have rebooted since adding the oss sound drivers, they never made it into the boot archive
[23:50:46] <wonko2> now to remember what that url was
[23:50:47] <wonko2> ;)

[23:57:49] <seanmcg> nothing in /var/adm/messages*
[23:57:50] <seanmcg> ?
[23:58:18] <wonko2> nope
[23:58:53] <wonko2> last line is the "System is being suspended" and then the next line is to boot kern.notice
