[00:00:17] <topgun17> e^ipi: i have twoo hard drisks  installed in my machine cmdk1 and cmdk2 how do I  format and add cmdk2 to the zpool?
[00:00:28] <e^ipi> topgun17: man zpool
[00:01:40] <e^ipi> TomJ: i can have 2 machines streaming decent quality ( ~ 50% of a DVD as an mpeg4 avi ) video, download some torrents, and move stuff around without hiccup
[00:01:47] <e^ipi> but my pool is functional
[00:01:47] <TomJ> also rather strange that I'm only seeing disk activity on 7/14 drives during that operation.  is it possible it's not putting anything at all on the degraded half?
[00:02:08] <e^ipi> it's possible, you'd have to check the source for implementation details
[00:02:18] <topgun17> e^ipi: so I would do zpool -fn pool cmdk2?
[00:02:35] <e^ipi> topgun17: no, you would read the manual page
[00:02:45] <e^ipi> or the zfs admin guide
[00:02:53] <e^ipi> which you can get to from the SAG ( link in /topic )
[00:06:59] <topgun17> I don't understand
[00:08:32] <e^ipi> what's not to understand?
[00:08:37] <e^ipi> there are guides ... you read them
[00:08:42] <e^ipi> do what they tell you to do
[00:08:45] <e^ipi> and then you're done
[00:09:11] *** bondolo has quit IRC
[00:10:34] <TomJ> hmm, during normal video playback operations + some minor torrent downloads, iostat -x shows 7 drives active with about 10% bandwidth, and the others just completely idle. that's somewhat worrying
[00:11:54] <TomJ> a scrub hits all 14 disks as epxected though
[00:11:56] <TomJ> well, 13, minus the dead one
[00:16:30] <TomJ> yeah just seems like it's not writing to the degraded RAIDZ2
[00:16:31] <TomJ>     6.8   15.5  308.5   24.7  0.0  0.1    0.0    3.3   0   2 c3t3d0
[00:16:31] <TomJ>   114.3  106.5 3719.2 6320.7 15.3  8.4   69.4   38.0  80  86 c3t6d0
[00:16:48] <TomJ> that first drive is in teh degraded RAIDZ2,  the second is in the non-degraded one
[00:17:09] *** ruse39[home]__ has joined #opensolaris
[00:17:17] <TomJ> so this seems like it's going to hotspot my data.. mening all the data I'm creating now is only going to be on one half of the stripe
[00:17:22] <TomJ> seems a bit odd

[01:12:56] <qbmaniac> hello guys
[01:13:16] <qbmaniac> umm
[01:13:31] <qbmaniac> if i run 200805 livecd and it takes me to bash...
[01:13:37] <qbmaniac> anyway to run the livecd gnome desktop?
[01:14:57] <nachox> it should start a gnome desktop
[01:15:04] <qbmaniac> it doesnt...
[01:15:10] <qbmaniac> it says
[01:15:13] <nachox> what does svcs -x return?
[01:15:23] <qbmaniac> Requesting system maintenance mode.... Console login services cannot run
[01:15:33] <qbmaniac> Root password for system maintenance (control d to bypass)
[01:15:35] <qbmaniac> let me see
[01:16:03] <qbmaniac> svcs: command not found
[01:16:18] <qbmaniac> all I have is a bash3.2 screen and I cant do much
[01:16:24] <qbmaniac> I can see "Jack" in home though
[01:18:07] <qbmaniac> any idea nachox?
[01:20:02] <qbmaniac> you speak spanish right?
[01:20:32] *** freetown has joined #opensolaris
[01:20:34] *** kim0 has quit IRC
[01:22:02] <e^ipi> if you're in system maintenence mode of course you're not going to get a GUI
[01:22:23] *** comay has quit IRC
[01:22:23] <e^ipi> most likely culprit, missing driver
[01:23:06] *** comay has joined #opensolaris
[01:24:33] <qbmaniac> driver? what should I do?
[01:24:48] <qbmaniac> it arrives there automatically
[01:25:16] <qbmaniac> i mean, the opensolaris blue screen comes up loading... then it dumps me down to bash asking me for the root password for system maintenance
[01:26:08] <Tilt> it's crashing on something, without you telling us what the error is before it asks for matinence... their is no way of telling
[01:26:30] <qbmaniac> well there is no visible error
[01:26:38] <Gman> e^ipi: here now
[01:26:42] <Tilt> does it display the kernel banner ?
[01:26:44] <qbmaniac> think i need to enable the "legacy ACPI" mode?

[01:29:21] *** comay_ has quit IRC
[01:30:02] *** ninjaslim has quit IRC
[01:32:07] <qbmaniac> I added -B acpi-user-options=8 to menu.lst in my current linux grub
[01:32:47] <_mary_kate_> you're trying to boot solaris from a linux grub?
[01:33:18] <qbmaniac> no of course not =)
[01:33:21] <qbmaniac> from a CD
[01:33:30] <_mary_kate_> what did you do in your linux grub then?
[01:33:43] <qbmaniac> Well I read this on sun's docs online:
[01:33:44] <qbmaniac> Note - Before you install the OpenSolaris OS on a system that is running the Linux OS, save a copy of the menu.lst file. The contents of the GRUB menu.lst file dictate what is displayed in the GRUB menu when you boot the system. You will need to update the GRUB menu after the installation. For further information, see menu.lst file specifics at x86: Booting a Solaris System with GRUB.
[01:33:59] <qbmaniac> And I saw this on a blog:
[01:34:00] <qbmaniac> I ventured over to the OpenSolaris IRC channel (#opensolaris). There, someone who had similar problems showed me how to enable the "legacy ACPI" mode. After editing the kernel line in to grub to add "-B acpi-user-options=8", the boot proceeded smoothly.
[01:34:12] <qbmaniac> So I thought I might have a similar problem
[01:34:18] <qbmaniac> but it seems to have fixed nothing
[01:35:38] <qbmaniac> now it doesnt even want to boot from my cd
[01:35:43] <qbmaniac> oh, there we go
[01:36:15] <qbmaniac> wow... i got the grub now in opensolaris splash for livecd
[01:36:25] <qbmaniac> i think changing the grub might with that extra line might have done the trick
[01:36:48] <qbmaniac> darn
[01:36:52] <qbmaniac> back to square 1
[01:37:02] *** freakazoid0223 has joined #opensolaris
[01:37:03] <qbmaniac> After the splash loading I get
[01:37:12] *** PersonXXL has quit IRC

[01:47:47] *** not-me-guv has joined #opensolaris
[01:47:49] <e^ipi> try booting with -v and see where the kernel dumps you
[01:48:06] <e^ipi> that'll give a good indication of why it wants to boot single
[01:48:07] <qbmaniac> how on earth will i boot with -v ? :P
[01:48:19] <e^ipi> same way you did the acpi thing
[01:48:25] <e^ipi> pass the kernel an option on the kernel line in grub
[01:48:28] <qbmaniac> instead of -B i try -v ?
[01:48:33] <e^ipi> yes
[01:48:40] <qbmaniac> ok =)

[01:54:57] <_mary_kate_> ah, they changed the naming scheme
[01:55:05] <Plazma> b101? i didn't even see b100 for download
[01:55:06] <Plazma> oh well
[01:55:07] <moazamraja> it' somewhat low-end
[01:55:12] <_mary_kate_> Plazma: read the topic
[01:55:20] <Plazma> ha
[01:55:20] <moazamraja> altho it has 3GB of RAM and a big HD also
[01:55:26] <Plazma> i should become more literate
[01:55:30] <Plazma> ohh
[01:55:32] <_mary_kate_> 3GB is pretty low-end nowadays.. ;)
[01:55:32] <moazamraja> but the cost was under $600

[01:57:44] <qbmaniac> why wouldn't it
[01:57:49] <qbmaniac> it's running fine on archlinux
[01:57:52] <e^ipi> no  driver? bad driver?

[01:57:59] <qbmaniac> i know
[01:58:02] <e^ipi> something that works on windows may not work on linux
[01:58:02] <qbmaniac> any way to fix it?
[01:58:04] <e^ipi> same deal
[01:58:10] <e^ipi> write a driver, or buy a different card

[01:58:42] <e^ipi> okay,
[01:58:49] <qbmaniac> thanks a lot for the help anyway
[01:58:53] <qbmaniac> I guess OS is just not for me
[01:58:55] <qbmaniac> at least not yet
[01:59:00] <e^ipi> or rather, not for your hardware
[01:59:06] <qbmaniac> yup

[01:59:19] <jbk> sn1?
[01:59:19] <e^ipi> cheap hardware tends to be supported less well than midrange or high end stuff
[01:59:32] <e^ipi> jbk: *shrug*
[01:59:35] <jbk> if specs are available
[01:59:44] <jbk> someone might be willing to try something
[01:59:53] *** qbmaniac has left #opensolaris
[02:00:38] <jbk> i wonder if having a site listing chipsets and such and status (not just 'it's supported' but things like 'specs available, in progres, etc.'
[02:00:55] <jbk> so that those that might be interesting in writing a driver could see what's available and what's not...
[02:01:16] <_mary_kate_> ideally, the ACL would do that, but i doubt it's going to change any time soon
[02:02:04] <e^ipi> the HCL's problem is that 1) it doesn't follow the source and is pretty out of date, and 2) people list motherboards there
[02:02:15] <e^ipi> motherboards are unhelpful, chipsets are helpful
[02:02:33] <_mary_kate_> nothing wrong with motherboards - problems are sometimes caused by fault ACPI tables and other bios-specific things
[02:02:47] <_mary_kate_> of course, listing a motherboard should make its components be listed as well

[02:29:09] *** yongsun has joined #opensolaris
[02:29:13] <benley> yeah, would be nice.
[02:29:36] <_mary_kate_> so you could look at a board, see it has ICH9, click that, and see how well ich9 is supported
[02:31:51] <e^ipi> benley: and /that/ would require model numbers being meaningful
[02:31:52] *** Chipdancer_ has joined #opensolaris
[02:31:56] <benley> e^ipi: :-/
[02:32:04] <benley> friggin computers
[02:32:21] <e^ipi> an Asus HGA-63CA5 has no meaningful information encoded in it
[02:32:45] <e^ipi> does that board exist? no, i pulled it out of my ass, which is about what asus does too
[02:33:01] <benley> sure it does, it tells you that you need to root around on asus.com.tw for an hour to find where they hide their pdf manuals
[02:33:21] <benley> and then, you read the pdf specs for a while until you discover that they're wrong
[02:33:29] <_mary_kate_> if you're updating the ACL, it's because you have the board, so you can see what onboard hardware it has
[02:33:33] <benley> then you read the chip numbers from the motherboard, unless you have already given up
[02:34:23] <e^ipi> hcl...
[02:34:54] <e^ipi> thing is nobody except those of us that go out of our way even know what's on their board
[02:35:09] <e^ipi> and to compound the problem, no two model numbers are alike
[02:35:35] <e^ipi> even though any nforce4 board is pretty much the same thing as any other nforce4 board, the HCL looks like you're not supported
[02:36:05] *** topgun17 has quit IRC

[02:38:15] <benley> (fortunately, ebay is rife with $10 sil3114 cards...)
[02:38:52] <jbk> i mean, i'd love to provide missing drivers for stuff provided i can get specs, the question is what chips aren't supported but have public specs (or at least would be willing to do an NDA if absolutely necessary to some random developer)?
[02:39:10] <ZOP> i don't get this... Xen Paravirtualized CentOS instance networking always works fine.  the dom0, goes dead -- aparrently no ARP response traffic AFAICT.

[02:54:11] <e^ipi> assuming your card is supported in general

[02:54:31] <e^ipi> sata is just a signaling and electrical protocol spec

[03:51:02] <_mary_kate_> no, only 5.11 is supported for building
[03:52:42] <qiyong_> can I upgrade from 5.9 to 5.11?
[03:52:46] <qiyong_> _mary_kate_: ^
[03:53:03] <_mary_kate_> probably, although i doubt that's tested much
[03:53:25] <qiyong_> is 5.9 still supported?
[03:53:40] <_mary_kate_> yes, solaris 8 and up still have full support
[03:53:57] <_mary_kate_> older versions have some form of EOL support if you pay lots of $

[03:55:23] <flip> ive been trying to install 99 for days now on this new box i built
[03:55:30] <flip> and it seems to install w/o error

[03:55:58] <_mary_kate_> why does it seem so?
[03:55:58] <flip> i booted in -s from the dvd and did the whole installgrub thing... and now i get to the grub> prompt

[05:55:38] <LeftyBSD> nice controllers, though
[05:55:43] <_mary_kate_> the newer one (X4540 or whatever) have a PCIe controller, not sure if it's the PCIe version of that, or something else

[06:56:59] *** perlmongo has quit IRC
[06:57:13] <ninjaslim> e^ipi: really but wouldn't that mean that they'd have to accept one package manager, either SVR4 or IPS
[06:57:33] <e^ipi> yes, and that is what i mean between 'the differences between the two'
[06:57:53] <e^ipi> IPS will putback, and then SXCE will effectively be indiana
[06:58:55] <ninjaslim> i'm having difficulty understanding that sorry, IPS will putback what does that mean?
[06:58:59] *** luna1 has joined #opensolaris
[06:59:09] <e^ipi> putback == integration
[06:59:18] <ninjaslim> ahh sorry
[06:59:45] <ninjaslim> but that'd require that IPS be more polished and have more packages and such
[07:00:00] <e^ipi> no, it would require that IPS be more polished and less buggy
[07:00:03] <freetown> more packages?
[07:00:04] <e^ipi> the number of packages is irrelevant
[07:00:29] <ninjaslim> right that's true, more polished and less buggy
[07:00:39] <freetown> ninjaslim, do you see people here dying for more packages?
[07:00:41] <e^ipi> or more to the point, the package issue is a seperete one
[07:01:38] <ninjaslim> right but that relies heavily on the community to provide packages more or less
[07:01:48] <e^ipi> no it doesn't
[07:02:23] <ninjaslim> i thought much of the packages in IPS were community built
[07:02:27] <_mary_kate_> IPS has absolutely nothing at all to do with what packages are available
[07:02:30] <e^ipi> no, none of them are
[07:02:33] <_mary_kate_> you can build IPS packages; you can build SVR4 packages
[07:02:34] <freetown> community? OH, you mean Blastwave
[07:02:46] <_mary_kate_> all IPS does is change how packages *work*.  it is a little easier to use third-party packages with IPS than SVR4 packages
[07:02:58] <e^ipi> is it?
[07:03:05] <_mary_kate_> i think it is.  but only a little
[07:03:32] <ninjaslim> i thought much of the packages in IPS were community builtSVR4 packages
[07:03:34] <freetown>  just more convenient really
[07:03:55] <freetown> ninjaslim, you should right around here more
[07:04:01] <_mary_kate_> ninjaslim: what do you mean by 'in IPS'?  the packages in 2008.05 are the exact same packages are in SXCE.  there are just less of them, because they didn't include legally-encumbered software
[07:04:06] <e^ipi> ninjaslim: no, they are Sun controlled packages derived directly from the SXCE consolidations
[07:04:18] <freetown> nothing in Indy was built by somebody outside Sun as far as i can tell
[07:04:20] <ninjaslim> freetown: you mean *write*
[07:04:27] <_mary_kate_> ninjaslim: there are third-party IPS repos like blastwave, but then blastwave does SVR4 packages too, so that isn't IPS-specific
[07:04:39] <freetown> ninjaslim, no...stick...brain-fingers out of sync :(
[07:04:47] *** luna1 has quit IRC
[07:04:57] <e^ipi> freetown: not entirely true, in so far as a bunch of them were sponsored
[07:05:13] <e^ipi> but all of them went through regular Sun processes, and all are in SXCE
[07:05:30] <freetown> e^ipi, well, nvidia drivers don't quite count as 'community'...more like vendor
[07:05:52] <e^ipi> right. sponsored by sun, run through Sun process, and available in SXCE
[07:06:22] *** erast has joined #opensolaris
[07:06:25] <e^ipi> and nvidia is just as much a part of the community as AMD, Intel, and the NSA
[07:06:39] <freetown> so, saying that Indiana is a community is kinda like a sham when in reality it is all Sun.
[07:06:41] <e^ipi> corporate entities can be members of open source communities
[07:06:59] <ninjaslim> a concept Linux folks don't seem to get but that's ok
[07:07:22] <e^ipi> freetown: as much as fedora is a sham because it's all RedHat at the helm, or opensuse and novell, or ubuntu and canonical, yes.
[07:07:55] <freetown> ninjaslim, ha! so...why does Linux have 3ware drivers in the mainline kernel source tree?
[07:07:56] *** gerard13 has joined #opensolaris
[07:08:19] <ninjaslim> what is 3ware?
[07:08:33] <_mary_kate_> ninjaslim: a low-end raid controller vendor
[07:08:41] <_mary_kate_> they produce drivers for linux, freebsd and windows, but not solaris
[07:08:45] <freetown> hahahha. Yeah, I know...no Solaris drivers for that card so you guys know nothing of it
[07:09:35] <e^ipi> it's not in the purchasing running because it's not supported
[07:09:42] <e^ipi> same as any other OS
[07:09:49] <freetown> ninjaslim, a better replacement for Areca, another low end raid controller vendor
[07:10:04] <e^ipi> linux doesn't support a bunch of hardware that windows does, so you don't buy it if you want to run linux
[07:10:09] <ninjaslim> they're closed source drivers or what
[07:10:17] <_mary_kate_> freetown: i'm not sure what 3ware has to do with IPS not being part of the community.  did someone in the community write a 3ware driver that hasn't been integrated?
[07:10:23] <freetown> ninjaslim, 3ware or Areca?
[07:10:35] <ninjaslim> both for the purposes of this
[07:10:38] <e^ipi> if they have done as _mary_kate_ describes it, let me know i'll get it railroaded through
[07:11:08] <freetown> ninjaslim, 3ware has a driver in the mainline Linux kernel...Areca has yet to get theirs in
[07:11:30] <ninjaslim> but are they proprietary drivers, what's the license they are released under
[07:11:34] <e^ipi> i'm canadian so i've gotten pretty good at navigating beurocracy
[07:11:34] <freetown> PL
[07:11:36] <freetown> GPL
[07:11:50] <e^ipi> so just as good as proprietary
[07:11:52] <freetown> e^ipi, they need you in Germany then :)
[07:12:04] <ninjaslim> well that's acceptable to them the Linux kernel devs and sorry to be ambiguous
[07:12:22] <ninjaslim> but i was effectively referring to the GNU folks, they prolly won't be too happy about that
[07:12:33] <ninjaslim> linux is the wrong word
[07:14:38] <e^ipi> linux is usually the wrong whatever
[07:14:39] <e^ipi> ;)

[07:16:16] <Gekz> you're neither Canadian nor French

[07:16:25] <freetown> does GNOME have a tool to manage desktop profiles that can be assigned to groups and if so, is it in Indy?

[08:25:09] <klg> fraggeln: in opensolaris i guess, before referring this howto, there are some more steps to reach there
[08:25:17] <klg> i don't even have a smb.conf
[08:25:47] <klg> this are a bit tricky, solaris tutorials suggest the use of cifs which is a superset of samba

[08:32:51] <CosmicDJ> klg: you'll have to use samba
[08:32:53] <klg> I'm just asking that how can i create a PDC on opensolaris

[08:33:06] *** Triskelios has quit IRC
[08:33:23] <klg> ok

[08:39:54] <gerard13> openldap is simpiest than DSEE
[08:40:13] <_mary_kate_> i found DSEE much easier than openldap
[08:40:16] <gerard13> DSEE requires more patches, and need reboot
[08:40:24] <_mary_kate_> it definitely does not need a reboot
[08:40:26] *** RElling1 has quit IRC
[08:40:43] <gerard13> i can prove the contrary, _mary_kate_ (and hello!)
[08:40:57] <CosmicDJ> klg: well if you're already into that stuff...
[08:41:06] <gerard13> do you want the list of patches that need rebooting the server?

[08:41:37] <_mary_kate_> are you talking about DSEE patches or OS patches?  i stay current on OS patches anyway, so i've never had to add any to install DSEE
[08:41:52] <_mary_kate_> if you're one of those people who installs then never ever updates, i guess you might have problems
[08:42:03] <CosmicDJ> gerard13: u4 is quite old
[08:42:06] <gerard13> when you download DSEE, the web page lists all the patches you need

[08:43:25] <klg> CosmicDJ:  i tried solaris 10, belenix 0.7.1, opensolaris 2008 , before finalizing on opensolaris to use as a platform for deploying the various services that i need on the network
[08:43:45] <gerard13> i don't understand your point of view, _mary_kate_, if i use solaris, i don't want to reboot the server every week

[08:53:39] <gerard13> but LU needs often patches, and often reboot again before applying LU
[08:54:04] <gerard13> http://www.sun.com/software/products/directory_srvr_ee/get_dsee_download.jsp
[08:54:28] <gerard13> CosmicDJ: what do you do with this list of patches? simply ignore?
[08:54:33] <xRaich[o]2x> klg: you just want to install samab?
[08:54:36] <xRaich[o]2x> samba
[08:55:20] <xRaich[o]2x> pkg install SUNWsmba
[08:55:51] <CosmicDJ> gerard13: no I would read the patch readme's and decide if I really need them
[08:58:02] <CosmicDJ> gerard13: but if you need to reboot anyway, just install them all...
[08:59:08] <klg> my question in case of IPS in not specific to samba, it can be anything say squid, or apache for that sake
[08:59:08] <klg> pkg search -r squid
[08:59:08] <klg> pkg search -r apache
[08:59:33] <klg> xRaich[o]2x: that's the point, how to decide which package to install
[09:00:10] <klg> basename   dir       usr/sfw/lib/webmin/samba  pkg:/SUNWwebmin at 1 dot 340-0.98
[09:00:10] <klg> basename   dir       usr/sfw/lib/webmin/samba  pkg:/SUNWwebmin at 1 dot 340-0.90
[09:00:10] <klg> basename   dir       usr/sfw/lib/webmin/samba  pkg:/SUNWwebmin at 1 dot 340-0.94
[09:00:10] <klg> description set       samba                     pkg:/SUNWsmba at 3 dot 0.32-0.98
[09:00:10] <klg> description set       samba                     pkg:/SUNWsmba at 3 dot 0.28.1-0.91
[09:00:12] <klg> description set       samba                     pkg:/SUNWsmba at 3 dot 0.26.1-0.75
[09:00:21] <pumpkin_> o.O
[09:00:32] <klg> this is stripped result of what i get from the samba search
[09:01:55] <xRaich[o]2x> klg: pkg searches every package for the word you gave it. in this case it's samba. SUNWsmba is the package name here followed by version.
[09:01:57] *** alka has joined #opensolaris
[09:02:00] <klg> xRaich[o]2x: should i be looking for descript set or basename or something else, for deciding the package
[09:02:22] <xRaich[o]2x> klg: and please don't spam i can see the results myself since i have a solaris machine here ;)
[09:02:33] <klg> ok
[09:03:28] <xRaich[o]2x> no just look for the packagename. it's the last column
[09:04:36] <xRaich[o]2x> pkg:/SUNWsquid at 2 dot 6.17-0.99 <- this is the long version which contains version number and solaris build. you don't need to specify all of this. pkg will pick the right pacakge for you when you tell it install SUNWsquid
[09:04:40] <klg> ok, got it, that's what i was asking, how to decipher what to use & what to leave ;)

[09:05:08] <CosmicDJ> klg: your... brain :-p
[09:05:11] *** Trident has joined #opensolaris
[09:05:16] <xRaich[o]2x> you only use it if you want to install that package explicitly
[09:06:05] <klg> i guess, little more work needed in the documentation & how to section of IPS
[09:06:22] <xRaich[o]2x> klg: feel free to contribute ;)
[09:06:34] <CosmicDJ> klg: IIRC you can use "pkg contents" to list, well, the content of a pkg
[09:07:13] <klg> xRaich[o]2x: sure i will, so that no other newbie has to go through this again & again
[09:07:18] <CosmicDJ> klg: and yes, the opensolaris team is aware that the current pkg naming sucks and they're working hard to improve things (maybe in 2008.11)
[09:07:42] <klg> CosmicDJ: great, i'll be looking forward to it
[09:08:02] <klg> CosmicDJ: till that time, whatever we have, i'll work with that
[09:08:38] <xRaich[o]2x> klg: i've been a newbie to me it was clear from the start, but then again, others might be confused. so if you know a better way of explaining you post it on the IPS mailing list. if you have a good idea they might listen

[09:10:39] <e^ipi> BBHoss: finding specificiations for the cards, and then writing them
[09:10:58] <BBHoss> e^ipi: are you serious?
[09:11:05] <e^ipi> ?
[09:11:14] <e^ipi> you're asking about how to write new drivers, no?
[09:11:23] <e^ipi> read the DDI, find specs, write
[09:11:24] <BBHoss> if a driver isn't in the DVD, its not supported?
[09:11:36] <e^ipi> murayama might have some
[09:11:51] <e^ipi> the manufacturer also might have one
[09:12:01] *** twisti has joined #opensolaris
[09:12:30] <klg> BBHoss: regarding driver, i had this solaris 10 dvd which doesn't support my lan card, but on opensolaris it's supported, it uses the rge driver
[09:12:39] <BBHoss> hmm
[09:12:43] <twisti> Hi!
[09:12:54] <BBHoss> freebsd has a driver
[09:13:03] <e^ipi> which card?
[09:13:13] <twisti> Is there somewhere a list or something which lists the versions of the software included in snv builds?
[09:13:30] <BBHoss> hang on i'll have to boot it back up to get it, one is a via gigabit chipset
[09:13:44] <e^ipi> that only narrows it down to a couple hundred cards...
[09:13:53] *** phimic has joined #opensolaris
[09:14:07] *** freetown has quit IRC
[09:17:39] <CosmicDJ> twisti: yes
[09:17:46] <BBHoss> well, the chip is labeled as a ZyXEL XZ1701, but i think its just a via, thats what opensolaris's driver manager says
[09:18:07] <klg> in opensolaris admin guide, i've read about the OpenSolaris Student Pack DVD, any idea where can i get that
[09:19:07] <twisti> CosmicDJ, :) And where?
[09:19:26] <CosmicDJ> twisti: opensolaris.org
[09:19:46] <e^ipi> BBHoss: does this card work on any other OS, and if so, what's the driver that you load to doit?
[09:20:08] <BBHoss> e^ipi: hang on i'll have to check :)
[09:20:18] <twisti> CosmicDJ, What exactly do you mean? That I should browse the spec files??
[09:21:34] <Gekz> asyd: :D
[09:22:00] <BBHoss> e^ipi: on linux its via_velocity
[09:22:02] *** twisti is now known as twisti_home
[09:22:20] <BBHoss> its a VT6120/1/2 chip
[09:23:41] <e^ipi> well, that's a pretty obscure chip
[09:24:22] <e^ipi> via's site says they've got solaris drivers
[09:24:26] <BBHoss> i have an SiS 190 chip too
[09:24:36] <BBHoss> e^ipi: yeah i can't seem to find them on their site
[09:24:47] <e^ipi> it's via, i'm not surprised
[09:24:53] <CosmicDJ> twisti_home: opensolaris.org -> projects -> sfw
[09:25:54] <BBHoss> e^ipi: what about the sis 190?
[09:25:59] *** mikefut has joined #opensolaris
[09:26:48] <e^ipi> *shrug*
[09:26:58] <e^ipi> SFE works reasonably well for the 10/100 chips
[09:27:05] <codestr0m> twisti_home: compiling sfw is similar to compiling ON
[09:27:17] <codestr0m> only difference is it's a giant tarball you extract
[09:28:00] <BBHoss> e^ipi: SFE?
[09:28:11] <e^ipi> sis fast ethernet presumably
[09:28:23] *** yongsun has quit IRC
[09:28:34] <e^ipi> i had an sfe chip on an old motherboard of mine
[09:28:43] *** yongsun has joined #opensolaris
[09:28:49] <e^ipi> i replaced it with a $10 rge card for gigabit
[09:29:08] <BBHoss> e^ipi: the ZyXEL came with a driver floppy, but i don't have a floppy drive :)
[09:29:32] <e^ipi> usually they've only got windows drivers on 'em anyways
[09:31:46] <BBHoss> e^ipi: ok, i think i've found one, the vle driver, is it in the opensolaris dvd by default?
[09:31:57] <BBHoss> http://homepage2.nifty.com/mrym3/taiyodo/eng/
[09:31:59] <BBHoss> #16
[09:32:11] <e^ipi> no, none of murayama's drivers are on the DVD except sfe
[09:33:19] <CosmicDJ> twisti_home: found it?
[09:33:41] <BBHoss> hmm
[09:34:07] <BBHoss> it mentions a binary driver, i wish i could find it
[09:34:20] <e^ipi> via likely has it
[09:34:31] <e^ipi> but, being via, it's a mystery
[09:34:52] <BBHoss> heh
[09:34:53] <e^ipi> they're actually worse than ATI, and that takes talent
[09:34:58] <BBHoss> do they have an FTP site?
[09:35:15] <e^ipi> ati at least shows you where to find their half-baked shitty drivers
[09:35:21] <BBHoss> apparently these are pretty nice cards

[09:48:17] <e^ipi> yes, fix your boot archive
[09:48:25] <e^ipi> details at google.
[09:49:45] <gerard13> i did it with booting from milax zpool -f import rpool, and update_grub
[09:49:57] <gerard13> and the problem is not solved
[09:50:10] <gerard13> i'd prefer to not reinstall
[09:50:45] <gerard13> update_grub is the same thing than reinstall grub with installgrub?
[09:51:07] <gerard13> this problem occured after a shutdown of my laptop
[09:51:42] <_mary_kate_> e^ipi: i'm not sure this is caused by an out of date boot arcive
[09:51:47] <_mary_kate_> e^ipi: looks more like some filesystem issue
[09:52:12] <gerard13> ok, but when i booted from cd, i did a zpool status -xv
[09:52:21] <gerard13> and it seems ok

[09:54:44] <gerard13> klg, it is a laptop, and yes, i have problem after using the powerbutton to shutdown the laptop, it took a very long time to shutdown
[09:54:54] <klg> gerard13: try to replicate the stuff on a running system with the following process, just switch off ur test machine 2-3 times when running solaris, either u'll get the error u mentioned or ur entire grub would be lost, if u boot from the live cd u'll still find that entire data & filesystem is intact only the mbr is messed up
[09:54:55] <gerard13> but it is possible to repair it?
[09:55:12] <klg> yes
[09:55:28] <klg> http://opensolaris.org/jive/message.jspa?messageID=288346
[09:56:34] <gerard13> ok, reinstalling grub with installgrub is the only thing i don't try yet
[09:57:47] <klg> gerard13: yesterday, i reinstalled the system 2-3 times, did all these stunts & then i found this link of how to recover grub
[09:59:51] <klg> gerard13: but before installing the grub again, try to import ur zfs fs & check whether all ur data in there or not, otherwise the simple solution would be to reinstall
[10:00:33] <gerard13> klg, i did it, and all datas are present
[10:01:11] <klg> good 4 u ;)

[11:58:34] <CosmicDJ> fdisk it first of you're on x86 + the disk is empty

[11:59:08] <fraggeln> doesnt everyone use sparc? :D
[11:59:31] <fraggeln> BBHoss_alt: use fdisk to create a partition of the whole disk.
[11:59:38] <fraggeln> and use format to create slices.
[11:59:50] <_mary_kate_> only cover the whole disk if you want to use the whole disk with solaris

[12:04:38] <BBHoss_alt> CosmicDJ: so I don't use fdisk?
[12:04:51] <CosmicDJ> BBHoss_alt: no you didn't read the manpage
[12:05:15] <BBHoss_alt> i just did, what part exactly are you talking about?

[12:18:11] <qiyong> BBHoss_alt: the file already exists, i just need to fill it
[12:18:52] <BBHoss_alt> qiyong: yeah i think thats how it works, iprb is the interface shown by ifconfig -a?
[12:19:52] <qiyong> BBHoss_alt: yes, exactly, it's an NIC, odd, what if one have two NICs
[12:20:18] <CosmicDJ> nodename
[12:21:04] <BBHoss> qiyong: if you have two, you'll have iprb1 for the second
[12:21:43] <qiyong> BBHoss  so different users may get different hostname?

[12:24:14] <qiyong> the startup scripts set it

[12:25:04] <qiyong> CosmicDJ: yeah, i just wonder why /etc/hostname.NIC
[12:26:07] <CosmicDJ> qiyong: because you cannot just enter hostname's in there; the file content is passed to ifconfig; so you could enter an IP in there for example...

[12:31:11] <qiyong> then?
[12:31:23] <CosmicDJ> iprb0 will get the IP 10.0.0.5
[12:31:52] <qiyong> so solaris configures its NIC ip using hostname.if and hosts?
[12:33:04] <CosmicDJ> qiyong: you can also put "192.168.10.5" in /etc/hostname.iprb1 ; then you don't need an entry in /etc/hosts
[12:33:57] <qiyong> what if there's two files: hostname.iprb0 and hostname.iprb1

[12:57:14] 
[12:59:10] <sickness> maybe the nvidia driver that's by default in Xorg doesn't have acceleration
[12:59:32] <sickness> you should try nvidia distributed driver, but I don't know if that has geforce4 acceleration too...

[13:21:46] <BBHoss> ok, well i might check it out if i feel like reinstalling
[13:22:05] <BBHoss> how do i install ruby and rubygems on sol?
[13:22:09] <TheK> fraggeln: I seriously doubt saying sxce is 'better than 2008.05' is a good thing to do. Where is the 'home page' for sxce ? Who is accountable for that dist? Where will that dist be in two years?
[13:22:28] <BBHoss> shit, another can of worms
[13:22:35] *** LordIllpalazoThe has joined #opensolaris
[13:23:30] <BBHoss> rather, setup pkgadd to install from a remote repo hopefully

[13:58:35] <TheK> evocallaghan: I don't find any docs what so ever. there are plenty of references which state "does not work" though. There is even a recommendation:
[13:58:36] <TheK> So in summary, if you're doing C and/or C++ development on Solaris or Linux, Sun Studio is probably your best choice. If you're doing mixed Java and C/C++ then netbeans. If you're not developing on Solaris or Linux then netbeans is you're only choice.

[16:36:34] <webar7> can/does zfs mimic something like linux's pivot_root syscall (which seems a bit scary)
[16:37:06] <webar7> or does osol/solaris does something like pivot_root somewhere else

[16:40:27] <TheK> InHisName: please rephrase your question. It doesn't make any sense to me.
[16:41:28] <webar7> it seems like a kernel could boot with zfs on root ... and then zfs could "pivot" mount points with zfs set mountpoint=/tmproot zpool/originalroot ; zfs set mountpoint=/ zpool/newroot ;
[16:41:47] <TheK> InHisName: My guess is that if you find out which runpath xscreensaver-lock uses, it might turn out it is pointing to the wrong lib. You can then write a new runpath pointing to the correct lib, and it might work for you. Then again, I'm only guessing.
[16:41:51] <InHisName> I am 'locked' out by the error.  Shall I just kill power and start again.  Will I have any luck booting up?

[17:03:14] <sysspoof> where can i find the lan driver e1000e for opensolaris?
[17:04:10] <DTEIT> e1000e is already in opensolaris (at least in the sxce)
[17:04:21] * Joerg is back (gone 01:03:41)
[17:05:51] <DTEIT> i still have this problem with mac osx and cifs server

[17:06:08] <DTEIT> anyone experienced some issues with browsing?
[17:06:13] <e^ipi> OSX is vaguely unix based
[17:06:15] <e^ipi> just use NFS
[17:06:25] <DTEIT> we have a mix environment
[17:06:31] <e^ipi> do both
[17:06:49] <DTEIT> uhm...try to explain how to do it again...no please :-)

[17:08:50] <esproul> hi all, can anyone help me diagnose this message from a V890's serial console?
[17:08:53] <esproul> ttymon: set_termio: get_ttymode failed: Timer expired
[17:08:53] <esproul> ttymon: initial termio on (/dev/console) failed

[17:09:35] *** gehmehgeh has quit IRC
[17:09:37] <DTEIT> tsoome1: and it works....but it appear that sometimes a osx client cannot see anymore the content of the share
[17:10:17] <tsoome1> well. opensolaris is not production software, so, the alternative is to use solaris 10 + samba.
[17:11:09] <DTEIT> infact i was thinking to go back to samba...but just curios if is something known or not
[17:11:18] <tsoome1> the thing is - you can set up nfs shares as well, but then users need to open connection based on nfs:// notation

[17:14:05] <e^ipi> stupid mac...
[17:14:10] <DTEIT> i agree :-)
[17:14:33] <jbk> heh
[17:14:38] <e^ipi> i don't really mind macs, they're just halfway between a desktop OS and a real OS
[17:14:50] <e^ipi> and it's the desktop OS bit that i run in to problems with
[17:15:05] <DTEIT> yes...even if with the 10.5 they got much better then before

[18:44:21] <sickness> throwt: have you had a look at AVS ?

[19:35:40] <tsoome>      (to  set  up  an  install  server)  or to copy just the boot
[19:35:40] <tsoome>      software of the Solaris CD to a  disk  (to  set  up  a  boot

[21:41:25] <Cobra-the-joker> hey there every one
[21:42:03] <Cobra-the-joker> i am new here to open solaris ......
[21:42:24] <Cobra-the-joker> i want to get some info from you about it ....if you dont mind ofcourse
[21:42:37] <Cobra-the-joker> i want to know about the IPS
[21:43:20] <bda> What do you want to know about the IPS?
[21:43:30] <e^ipi> it's far more effective to ask actual questions than to ask questions about asking
[21:43:46] <jbk> true, it isn't #meta-opensolaris :)
[21:44:37] <e^ipi> we may be jerks but you could've avoided this snide remark by just asking your original question
[21:44:52] <Cobra-the-joker> i heard about it from the internet ....i want to know the difrences between it and the RPM (i use fedora 9 at the moment)
[21:45:04] * Cobra-the-joker thinks that they all the same
[21:45:12] <e^ipi> rpm doesn't do a zfs snapshot before installing stuff
[21:45:17] <e^ipi> so if it breaks something, sux for you
[21:45:24] <e^ipi> if IPS breaks something, rollback and continue
[21:45:43] <Cobra-the-joker> e^ipi , coool really
[21:45:46] <alanc> IPS has the network repository support integrated as a core part of the packaging system, not an add-on layer like yum over rpm
[21:45:48] <Aria> RPM's command line tools are far more mature, a lot of query options and a neat database.
[21:45:55] <Aria> RPM's rollback is per-package based, IPS's is image-based.
[21:46:13] <Cobra-the-joker> hmmm....
[21:46:15] <Aria> And what alanc said, not that it matters in practice that much.
[21:46:51] <Aria> (since yum and poldek are both mature tools.)
[21:46:54] *** capaz has joined #opensolaris
[21:47:06] <Cobra-the-joker> what you meen by mature exactly
[21:47:06] *** capaz has quit IRC
[21:47:31] <e^ipi> alanc, yeah, it's funny... hg:svn::rpm:ips ... moving to centralize package control and decentralize source control at the same time
[21:47:34] *** BillyCrook1 has joined #opensolaris
[21:47:53] <throwt> hmm, now if we can just have protein-bound packages
[21:47:54] <Aria> RPM's gone through YEARS of evolution, and you can ask a lot about packages -- what libraries they include, including sonames; what packages depend on others and vice versa. An elegant options selection system, with suggests and provides.
[21:48:17] <e^ipi> throwt, that made no sense at all.
[21:48:34] <Aria> RPM also has some political baggage that IPS is currently without.
[21:48:43] <Aria> Including two somewhat divergent forks.
[21:49:06] <throwt> rpm is your mom's plasma, on a plate
[21:49:21] <Aria> RPM's spec language is very powerful, and a lot of distros use it to produce some really repeatable builds. I'm not sure about IPS yet (I'm about to find out, the moment I get some free time, I'm gonna dive into packaging some things using IPS)
[21:49:39] <e^ipi> alright, that's about enough of that then
[21:49:47] *** throwt was kicked by e^ipi (troll.)
[21:49:52] *** throwt has joined #opensolaris
[21:50:10] *** sysspoof has quit IRC
[21:50:11] *** capaz has joined #opensolaris
[21:50:20] <Aria> I worry about the style of integrate from upstream that the current OS builds use; I prefer RPM's pristine+patches model.
[21:50:31] <codestr0m> Aria: IPS is using spec files.. and the build process is *ugly* in the most polite way I can say
[21:50:41] <codestr0m> Aria: I'm 100% with you
[21:50:48] <e^ipi> codestr0m, no it isn't.
[21:50:49] <Aria> But that's me, and so far, OS seems to be managing okay. I've just seen things not flow upstream from that model well.
[21:50:53] <alanc> IPS has no build system, it's just about taking bits from whatever build system you use and delivering them
[21:50:56] <e^ipi> the SFE guys are using spec files.
[21:51:00] <codestr0m> I *hate* hacks and scripting in the spec files
[21:51:05] <h3sp4wn> I think the only tool I have seen for managing stuff that has the right idea is pkgmanager from netbsd
[21:51:08] <e^ipi> yeah, lovely... don't use SFE then
[21:51:13] <alanc> codestr0m: JDS & SFE use spec files, most IPS packages don't
[21:51:14] <Aria> I've seen RPM specs be both good and bad.
[21:51:20] <codestr0m> e^ipi: ok. IPS is SVR4 being converted over to IPS packages to be accurate?
[21:51:27] <e^ipi> yes
[21:51:29] <Aria> The distro of Linux that I use uses RPM masterfully.
[21:51:33] <codestr0m> great. even uglier :P
[21:51:51] <e^ipi> i'm sure they'd love your patches to make it better
[21:51:59] <codestr0m> Aria: patches welcome, but don't plan to turn this boat.. pm me if you're interested in an alternative
[21:52:16] <alanc> Aria: depends which part of the OS builds you look at - most of the ones tracking external upstream (JDS, SFW, X, SFE) do use the pristine+patches model - only the few external bits integrated into ON are kept all mixed together
[21:52:22] <Cobra-the-joker> so i got from you that rpm is more better than IPS ...coz it has the bug fixes as it is mature (like you said :P)
[21:52:58] <Aria> Mmm, I didn't say that, and for good reason, Cobra-the-joker. IPS has a lot of promise, especially as it's currently managed, things are going well. It's just young.
[21:53:15] <Cobra-the-joker> hmmm
[21:53:21] <e^ipi> Cobra-the-joker, IPS has the potential to be better than RPM... but it's only been around for about a year
[21:53:25] *** _capiira has quit IRC
[21:53:30] * Cobra-the-joker is afraid of tnew IPS bugs
[21:53:47] <Aria> But then, I'd use IPS on OS, SVR4 packages on Solaris, and RPM on RPM-based linux. I believe in integration over a religious war.
[21:54:01] <CosmicDJ> if you're afraid of sw bugs, then stop using *any* sw now :)
[21:54:26] <h3sp4wn> (you tell pkgmanager what you want and it deals with the rest and lisp is definately the right choice for a package manager)
[21:54:28] <Cobra-the-joker> lol
[21:54:51] <Aria> (Lisp is fine, but the algorithms would work in any language.)
[21:55:04] <e^ipi> heh, lisp
[21:55:11] <e^ipi> (())(()(((())))))
[21:55:17] <Cobra-the-joker> aha ....and another question pls here .
[21:55:27] <alanc> IPS doesn't have different forks of the project arguing with each other like RPM does 8-)
[21:55:29] <e^ipi> Cobra-the-joker, another meta-question you mean...
[21:55:36] <e^ipi> just ask questions, asking to ask questions is silly
[21:56:17] <Cobra-the-joker> i have a usb adsl modem here ....is opensolaris compitable  with it ?
[21:57:41] <h3sp4wn> Aria: true problem with the others is they are either time consuming to write or slow (I suppose ocaml or haskell etc are also ok)
[21:58:00] <e^ipi> Cobra-the-joker, probably not... you don't have an ethernet card?
[21:58:44] <Cobra-the-joker> i have ...but its recomeended from my ISP
[21:58:51] * Aria shrugs. The systems exist -- PLD Linux has quite a good package manager written in C, managing dependencies for RPM. I don't think that implementation language matters that much.

[22:00:16] <e^ipi> Cobra-the-joker, your isp doesn't know what they're talking about
[22:00:28] <gronlund> can someone tell me what would be the most appropriate opensolaris version for an old Sun Ultra 5/10 (440Mhz, 512ram) ?
[22:00:30] <e^ipi> ( don't feel bad, mine's run by morons too )
[22:00:30] <Cobra-the-joker> lol ...how is that ?
[22:00:48] <e^ipi> the USB interfaces are in my experience totally garbage
[22:00:52] <CosmicDJ> mine, too :( can't even run ntpd here...
[22:01:04] <e^ipi> much more stable and faster connections can be had by using the ethernet interface
[22:01:15] <e^ipi> gronlund, solaris9
[22:01:21] <e^ipi> gronlund, 512M of ram is painful
[22:01:27] <gronlund> yeah
[22:01:32] <e^ipi> alternately, the machine makes a pretty good doorstop
[22:01:33] <gronlund> but i got it free =)
[22:01:40] <gronlund> oh come on
[22:01:40] <e^ipi> you overpaid
[22:01:49] <gronlund> anything more light-weight then solaris 9 ?
[22:01:57] <e^ipi> someone got their trash hauled away for free... good for them
[22:01:59] <CosmicDJ> gronlund: netbsd/openbsd ;) or take alook at mmilax
[22:02:00] <bda> gronlund: The most appropriate operating system for that machine is OpenBSD. :)
[22:02:13] <e^ipi> CosmicDJ, sparc.
[22:02:21] <gronlund> hehe okey, latest version or something older ?
[22:02:24] <CosmicDJ> milax runs on sparc IIRC
[22:02:30] <e^ipi> really? neato
[22:02:48] <Cobra-the-joker> i have 512 MB ram too :D
[22:02:56] <e^ipi> gronlund, you will have a much less painful time if you just did an old machine with a gig of ram out of the trash
[22:03:00] <e^ipi> any x86 piece of junk should do
[22:03:11] *** jacobs has joined #opensolaris
[22:03:13] <gronlund> what openBSD version ?

[22:03:57] <Cobra-the-joker> i heard that sun computers rox
[22:04:03] <gronlund> CosmicDJ are you sure  ? 512mb ram.. shouldn't an older version be easier for it ?
[22:04:06] <e^ipi> Cobra-the-joker, some do
[22:04:07] <Cobra-the-joker> better than IBM compatible
[22:04:17] <e^ipi> the u5/u10 is totally garbage though
[22:04:25] <CosmicDJ> gronlund: openbsd != slowlaris
[22:04:28] <Cobra-the-joker> lol
[22:04:32] <gronlund> haha
[22:04:36] <Cobra-the-joker> coz its very old
[22:04:55] <h3sp4wn> Is Solaris 10 + CDE not useable on 512MB ram (with ufs) when I managed ultra 5's they ran Solaris 2.6 mostly though
[22:04:57] <e^ipi> if you can get them with enough ram, and you put a SCSI / SAS controller that works in them they're vaguely acceptable but you're better off spending $10 on an old pentium3 machine
[22:05:06] <bda> Yeah, it's really not worth running that system. Power costs alone. :)
[22:05:44] <e^ipi> U60, U80, blade xx00 ( not 150/100 ) are all great machines
[22:06:15] <e^ipi> 5, 10, b100, b150 were all super low end things whose best purpose are as dumb terminals to bigger machines

[22:07:05] <gronlund> im sorry, im new to sun computers.. does the "ULTRA" mean x64 ?
[22:07:41] <e^ipi> only recently...
[22:07:46] <e^ipi> usually it means UltraSPARC
[22:08:03] <gronlund> yeah but what is my machine? 32 or 64 ? it should be 32 right ?
[22:08:30] <e^ipi> no, ultrasparc is by definition 64 bit
[22:08:41] <gronlund> so.. my really really old machine is 64bit ?
[22:08:45] <gronlund> that doesnt make sense
[22:08:58] <e^ipi> why doesn't that make sense?
[22:09:07] <e^ipi> sun's been doing 64 bit for a /long/ time
[22:09:10] <bda> 1995.
[22:09:18] <gronlund> wow..
[22:09:21] <gronlund> i had no idea.. ^^
[22:09:54] <CosmicDJ> hm wikipedia states 1993...
[22:10:03] <Cobra-the-joker> you have a 64 bit ....CONGRATULATIONS !!you have won with us
[22:10:07] <CosmicDJ> "SPARC Version 9, the 64-bit SPARC architecture, was released by SPARC International in 1993"
[22:10:08] <bda> "SPARC was initially a 32-bit architecture until the introduction of the SPARC V9 architecture in 1995, which added 64-bit extensions."
[22:10:13] <bda> Well.
[22:10:18] <bda> That's what you get for trusting wikipedia.
[22:10:18] <bda> :)
[22:10:39] *** microchip_ has quit IRC
[22:10:40] <CosmicDJ> maybe that was the "draft", and 1995 was the first 64bit cpu shipped
[22:11:22] <h3sp4wn> ultra 5's were ok as webservers ~10 years ago (with external disk boxes if necessary) if cost was at all important
[22:12:42] *** hsp has joined #opensolaris
[22:14:00] <alanc> SPARC International was the standards body, so that would be the specification/standard in 1993, followed by chips, which would be followed by full systems in 1995
[22:14:34] <alanc> and SPARC wasn't the first 64-bit - Alpha was there a few years earlier
[22:16:43] <jamesd> alanc, actually i think  mips had the first 64bit chips..
[22:16:49] *** BillyCrook1 has left #opensolaris
[22:16:58] <alanc> forgot about them
[22:17:13] <alanc> and I'm sure there were others too
[22:17:25] <alanc> don't remember when Power hit 64-bit, think it was after SPARC though
[22:17:35] <alanc> pretty much everyone got to 64-bit before x86 did

[22:22:10] <ryankrizan> Could someone assist me for a minute or two please?
[22:22:20] <e^ipi> ryankrizan, man pkgrm
[22:22:41] <e^ipi> unless you're on indiana ( the one with the livecd ), in which case, 'man pkg'
[22:22:55] <e^ipi> the name of the package is SUNWvbox

[22:23:20] <ryankrizan> e^ipi, ah, thank you.
[22:24:43] <alanc> wonder how long until you can't buy DIMMs smaller than 4gb and everyone will be 64-bit...
[22:25:24] <alanc> found a bunch of 1Mb SIMMs the other day in a old pile of sun4c era parts - can't imagine finding those for sale new anywhere today
[22:26:15] <jamesd> alanc, maybe for an embeded system or perhaps addons for a  scsi board
[22:28:21] *** dsoft has joined #opensolaris
[22:29:05] <alanc> would probably just put that in CPU these days instead of a SIMM - I think all the cpu's in this room have more on-board L1/L2 cache than that
[22:29:30] <alanc> or maybe put it in flash memory
[22:29:56] <jamesd> alanc, what no cellerons or  u5/u10's or even  a blade 100/150 have less
[22:30:27] <alanc> there's a U10 in the corner, hasn't been plugged in since I moved into the office - debating whether to leave it out for the recycling sweep this week
[22:30:56] <alanc> still thought it had at least 1mb cache though
[22:31:16] <jamesd> only the 440mhz ones had more than 512 iirc

[23:36:10] <flip> furthermote... opensolaris 200805 wont install either
[23:36:27] <flip> on boot the dvd hangs at a maintence password prompt
[23:36:32] <flip> and wont go any further
[23:36:42] <flip> says it cant start login console or something like that
[23:36:43] <throwt> huh strange
[23:36:46] <flip> throwt: yea
[23:36:51] <flip> throwt: ive booted from the dvd before
[23:36:53] <flip> and run installgrub
[23:36:56] <throwt> 3 minutes before you came in somebody said this
[23:36:57] <throwt> 18:31 < dusanyu> Hello Having A small issue with the Live CD it probes device nodes than
[23:37:00] <throwt>                  requests System states Console Longin Service(s) cant run than goes into
[23:37:03] <throwt>                  Maintnance password
[23:37:16] <flip> thats exactly what happens to me
[23:37:23] <flip> i found out this has to do w/ a sata optical drive
[23:37:29] <flip> on motherboards w/ nvidia chipsets
[23:37:38] <throwt> thats what dusanyu supposed
[23:37:40] <flip> and can be resolved by using a regular ata cdrom
[23:37:46] <flip> i read it... havent tried it
[23:37:56] <flip> because i really wanted sxce to be consistant w/ my other machines
[23:38:00] <dusanyu> ah now that makes sence i have a SATA optical drive
[23:38:10] <flip> ive been trying for days now :F
[23:38:28] <flip> i can install grub OK but when i reboot
[23:38:31] <flip> it hangs at the grub> prompt
[23:38:35] <flip> theres no menu.lst installed
[23:38:48] <flip> i can boot solaris w/ like hd (0,0,a) kernel$ and module$
[23:38:50] <throwt> is there some bios compatabilityi option?
[23:38:54] <flip> but it instantly craps itself
[23:39:00] <flip> and starts a trace
[23:39:02] <flip> uhh not sure?
[23:39:16] <flip> im sure your framiliar w/ the zfs home fileserver whatchamacallit article?
[23:39:19] * flip find url
[23:39:31] <throwt> see if there is a compatability option in the bios.  but this is just a shot in the dark
[23:39:41] <flip> http://breden.org.uk/2008/03/02/a-home-fileserver-using-zfs/
[23:39:51] <flip> i built this box pretty much to these exact specs... part #'s and all
[23:39:58] <flip> to try and emulate what he accomplished
[23:40:05] <flip> i ahvent actually BUILT a pc in almost 10 years lol
[23:41:01] <flip> the STRANGE part about this --- is that this disk had debian on it a half hour ago
[23:41:04] <flip> w/ working grub
[23:41:10] <flip> and i installed sxce... and i got the bad pbr sig
[23:41:15] <flip> so it didnt just not instsall grub
[23:41:21] <flip> it erased the linux installs grub
[23:41:26] <flip> and then forgot to install its own?
[23:41:29] <throwt> this is kinda crappy, but try zeroing that out
[23:41:29] <flip> its real real wierd
[23:41:34] <flip> did that
[23:41:37] *** AxeZ has quit IRC
[23:41:38] <flip> ran dd for like an hour :F
[23:41:50] <flip> on the entire disk anywhich way i know how
[23:41:52] <flip> no change
[23:42:14] <dusanyu> found the bug
[23:42:17] <dusanyu> http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6595488
[23:42:37] *** microchip_ has quit IRC
[23:42:53] *** microchip_ has joined #opensolaris
[23:42:58] <throwt> only took a year to implement that support
[23:43:15] <Yorlik> Where can I get the files for the opensolaris kerberos project ?
[23:44:30] <flip> ok
[23:44:44] <flip> booting 200805 dvd on ata dvdrom now
[23:44:54] <flip> sata dvd unplugged
[23:44:56] <flip> lets see what happens
[23:45:56] <flip> Probing for device nodes ...
[23:45:57] <flip> this is normal
[23:46:07] <flip> after this it usually fails and starts asking for the maint password
[23:47:28] <throwt> looks like you will need a newer solaris snapshot.  according to the bug kindly pasted by dusanyu  snv_95+,
[23:47:45] <flip> ahh
[23:47:48] <flip> ya this is 86
[23:47:54] <flip> where can i get a newer build?
[23:47:57] <flip> genunix?
[23:48:20] <throwt> from opensolaris.org, but i can tell you the link in a min
[23:48:26] <throwt> http://opensolaris.org/os/downloads/sol_ex_dvd_1/
[23:49:04] <flip> thats a link to sxce snv_99
[23:49:07] <flip> isnt it?
[23:49:09] <throwt> yes
[23:49:19] <flip> thats whats giving me the bad pbr sig lol
[23:49:23] <trygvis> if I'm creating a .pkg that run on all platforms, what should I put in ARCH? "all"?
[23:49:23] <flip> ive been trying to install it for days
[23:49:50] <throwt> ah interesting
[23:49:52] <h3sp4wn> flip: The only way to use that build with nvidia sata is to take the nvidia sata driver from b98
[23:50:07] <flip> im not trying to use nvidia sata
[23:50:13] <flip> i have a sata hard drive
[23:50:22] <flip> but i also have a ata dvdrom
[23:50:24] <flip> not sata
[23:50:49] <e^ipi> "i am doing something unsupported and it isn't working properly. what gives?"
[23:52:05] <flip> so i cant use sata devices w/ build snv_99?
[23:52:08] <flip> thats not supported?
[23:52:08] <h3sp4wn> flip: nForce 570 SLI chipset
[23:52:25] *** pgr has quit IRC
[23:52:26] <h3sp4wn> unless you are using the jmicron port that means you are using nvidia sata
[23:52:42] <flip> jmicron
[23:52:54] <flip> not framiliar w/ what that is
[23:53:01] <flip> but its listed as sata_raid i think on the motherboard
[23:53:19] <h3sp4wn> Its one of the 7 ports but generally considered to be crap
[23:53:32] <flip> ya not using it
[23:53:49] <flip> i WAS using sata 1 boot disk, sata 2 dvdrom
[23:53:53] <flip> didnt work..
[23:54:03] <flip> ive since moved to sata 1 boot disk, IDE dvdrom
[23:54:05] <flip> still not working
[23:54:06] <flip> :F
[23:54:22] <h3sp4wn> That didn't work since b70b (both sata)
[23:54:37] <flip> not sure what b70b is sorry
[23:55:03] <h3sp4wn> An ancient now release of SXDE before there was native nvidia sata support
[23:55:11] *** timeless has quit IRC
[23:55:13] <e^ipi> sata devices, absolutely. sata cdroms, still flaky
[23:55:14] <flip> wait since... soo in b99 it doesnt work?
[23:55:21] <flip> because thast what im using
[23:55:27] <flip> and now sata hdd, ide dvdrom
[23:56:31] <h3sp4wn> b99 totally will not work the only way I got it working was by putting the driver from b98 back (50/50 whether I should have done it at all but some other xvm bugs were fixed that I really wanted fixing)
[23:57:43] <flip> ok
[23:57:53] <flip> where can i get b98 sxce iso then?
[23:58:54] <dusanyu> so open solarus suffers the things being broken in later relices bug that drove me away from Ubuntu
[23:59:11] <CIA-58> Krishnendu Sadhukhan - Sun Microsystems <Krishnendu.Sadhukhan at Sun dot COM>: 6755317 "dmake modlist" fails for core_pcbe
[23:59:36] <h3sp4wn> dusanyu: switching to a new compiler has issues for everyone as far as I can see
[23:59:47] <e^ipi> dusanyu, no, it suffers that things occasionally break in the barely tested bleeding edge bits.
[23:59:57] <e^ipi> if you want solid support, S10.
