[00:04:10] <eviljames> Have you tried?
[00:04:33] <e^ipi> it should already have a font path with many pretty unicode fonts for your viewing pleasure

[00:29:36] <wbkang> How do I setup an nfs share so that it will mount automatically at boot time? I tried enabling nfs/client and putting an entry on vfstab but it does not mount at boot time.

[01:07:29] <gkl> hi everyone
[01:07:35] <gkl> I have a question about install servers
[01:08:02] *** jfisc1 has quit IRC
[01:08:39] *** alfism has quit IRC
[01:08:58] <gkl> it's very straightforward to set up an install server so that I can install opensolaris on a headless box
[01:08:58] *** felipe_ has quit IRC
[01:09:09] <gkl> but is there a quick way to completely remove the install server once it's done?
[01:10:13] *** Chipdancer has quit IRC
[01:10:22] <gkl> like I have no idea what that setup_install_server does
[01:10:47] *** Chipdancer_ has quit IRC
[01:11:27] <gkl> I would run it from within a zone
[01:11:30] <gkl> except I have no idea how to do that

[01:19:17] <trichobezoar> has anybody gotten a crossbow vnic to be attached to a xen domain?
[01:21:21] <e^ipi> gkl: you would install SUNWjet, and read the instructions
[01:21:24] *** hohum has quit IRC
[01:21:31] <e^ipi> and when you're done remove the packages and what have you
[01:21:43] <gkl> SUNWjet? I've never heard of that
[01:21:47] <gkl> I will look it up
[01:22:02] <gkl> I normally use Solaris_11/tools/setup_install_server
[01:22:35] <e^ipi> it makes it a hell of a lot easier
[01:22:43] <bda> JET++
[01:23:53] <gkl> so I can use the one provided on the sunsite? I don't need one for SXCE?
[01:24:08] <bda> Yes.
[01:24:10] <gkl> excellent
[01:24:11] <gkl> thank you very much
[01:24:28] <bda> Enjoy.

[02:20:00] <gkl> is there a way to make the installation interactive so that I can vacillate on what options I want to choose at the moment?
[02:22:15] <e^ipi> no, you fill in the template file
[02:22:27] <gkl> alright
[02:22:46] *** capaz1 has joined #opensolaris

[02:34:14] <nachox> hi guys
[02:34:54] <nachox> e^ipi, do you see yourself wearing blue? :P
[02:35:12] <e^ipi> i usually work in PJ's
[02:35:40] <e^ipi> ISTR IBM prefers people dress businessy
[02:36:25] <nachox> today i went to an interview for a company called globant, i told the HR dude that sysadmins from argentina were useless or mediocre :P
[02:36:30] *** joshcarter has joined #opensolaris
[02:37:16] <lewellyn> this is probably the best article i've seen: http://www.channelinsider.com/c/a/IBM/Why-is-IBMNot-CiscoBuying-Sun-714806/
[02:38:02] <nachox> i'm pissed noone talked about those other cool sun products ibm was getting for free like sun ray software or ssgd
[02:38:46] *** mboyer has quit IRC
[02:38:56] <e^ipi> nachox: what country was that interview in?
[02:38:58] *** mboyer has joined #opensolaris
[02:39:05] <nachox> argentina
[02:39:47] <e^ipi> k, no idea what the anti-discrimination laws are like there
[02:40:04] <e^ipi> here anyways that'd be pretty illegal
[02:40:07] *** capaz1 is now known as capaz
[02:40:11] <lewellyn> nachox: no one talks about them because they'll be treated like os/2: you can have them if you ask, but it won't necessarily be easy
[02:40:33] <nachox> e^ipi, why?
[02:40:49] <e^ipi> nachox: because it's discrimination
[02:41:02] <e^ipi> we have labour laws that prevent that very thing
[02:41:08] <nachox> how so?
[02:41:26] <e^ipi> not hiring someone because of their ethnic background ?
[02:41:35] <trichobezoar> Wouldnt a merger with fujistu be better aligned?
[02:41:41] <trichobezoar> ibm == take patents & run
[02:41:57] <lewellyn> trichobezoar: ibm is probably the *worst* mesh in many ways
[02:42:17] <lewellyn> e^ipi: nothing wrong with not hiring someone who volunteers bigoted-sounding information, though
[02:42:27] *** fenris_ has joined #opensolaris
[02:42:33] <nachox> e^ipi, no, you misunderstood me... well, i guess i didnt tell the whole story, these guys are an outsourcing company, they manage servers for lots of other companies
[02:42:34] <lewellyn> e^ipi: there's ways to legally elicit those sorts of remarks, too :)
[02:43:25] <e^ipi> nachox: you didn't get hired because you're Argentinean ?
[02:43:30] <nachox> e^ipi, they are a company from argentina and they hire sysadmins in argentina, it makes sense because an admin in the us is much more expensive than one here
[02:44:21] <nachox> e^ipi, I told interviewer that while argentinian sysadmins were cheaper they were useless and mediocre too, he didnt say anything
[02:44:27] <e^ipi> oh
[02:44:29] <e^ipi> misunderstood
[02:44:52] *** sparc-kly has joined #opensolaris
[02:44:52] *** ChanServ sets mode: +o sparc-kly
[02:46:21] <lewellyn> it probably got the same response as someone saying "you know, fuck whitey" at the end of their interview ;)
[02:46:52] <nachox> i actually got a second interview tomorrow :P
[02:47:53] <lewellyn> with them? hahahaha
[02:48:00] <lewellyn> they deserve what they get ;)
[02:49:01] <e^ipi> lewellyn: i'd probably want to weed out the prejudiced
[02:49:46] *** wbkang has joined #opensolaris
[02:49:49] <lewellyn> e^ipi: i just like weeding out the narrow-minded
[02:50:28] *** wbkang has left #opensolaris
[02:51:03] <nachox> i'm not prejudiced, i've seen hundreads of UNIX servers configured by lots of sysadmins, not one of them was properly secured and most were abandoned
[02:51:30] *** Rocket2DMn has quit IRC
[02:52:47] <e^ipi> "i'm not prejudiced, i've seen hundreds of gang shootings in the black part of town"
[02:53:40] <nachox> that example does not aply
[02:54:04] <nachox> "i'm not prejudiced, i've seen hundreds of gang shootings in the black part of town and not one anywhere else" does
[02:54:19] <asyd> \_o<
[02:54:54] <e^ipi> you've never seen a poorly configured server ?
[02:54:58] * lewellyn shoots the duck
[02:55:14] <lewellyn> nachox: so the only misconfigured servers you've seen have been set up by people in argentina?
[02:55:29] <lewellyn> dude, i've gotta take you on a tour of server rooms :P
[02:55:32] <e^ipi> lewellyn: canard a l'orange time?
[02:56:01] <nachox> i've never seen a properly configured server when the said server was configured by someone from argentina
[02:56:07] <lewellyn> e^ipi: that's french to me
[02:56:11] <e^ipi> correct
[02:56:45] <e^ipi> duck in orange sauce
[02:56:47] <lewellyn> nachox: news flash, *most* servers are misconfigured. sometimes on purpose.
[02:57:00] <lewellyn> nah. orange will clash with these garlic fries
[02:57:14] *** joanmarie has left #opensolaris
[02:57:42] <nachox> lewellyn, i'd have to say that i'm paranoid with security and accountability
[02:58:04] <lewellyn> nachox: and sometimes they really do just get in the way.
[02:58:15] *** xtrondo has quit IRC
[02:59:02] <nachox> lewellyn, most of the time it's just laziness,
[03:00:02] <lewellyn> nachox: also keep in mind that most people have no clue what they're doing. and that's irrelevant as to where they are/are from.
[03:00:03] <e^ipi> nachox: and origin country comes in to play very little in that regard
[03:03:05] <nachox> that still doesnt invalidate my statement, but i'll give you that, laziness is universal :)
[03:04:11] *** capaz has left #opensolaris
[03:04:30] *** niq has joined #opensolaris
[03:04:59] <e^ipi> your statement was that "all argentinian sysadmins are incompetent" and this is somehow supposed to not be bigoted
[03:05:36] *** KOHJU is now known as kohju
[03:06:03] <nachox> considering that i'm also from agrentina and a sysadmin...
[03:07:40] <lewellyn> also, laziness is not necessarily a bad thing
[03:07:59] <e^ipi> if you can turn it to productive ends, not at all
[03:08:12] <lewellyn> i.e. i'm lazy. i'll sit there and stare at something until i can figure out how to do it once instead of having to come back and fix it a dozen times over its lifespan
[03:08:13] <e^ipi> "i'm lazy, so i'm going to script my work" is a perfectly acceptable outlet
[03:08:29] <lewellyn> lots of "wasted" time, but in the end i don't have so much headache

[03:33:16] <e^ipi> evocallaghan: no, you just need to pull as anon
[03:33:20] <evocallaghan> oninoshiko: Howdy
[03:33:21] <e^ipi> same as it ever was
[03:33:45] <deena> Hi
[03:33:46] <evocallaghan> e^ipi: oops, just noticed that thanks
[03:34:03] <evocallaghan> I copied the URL from the project site
[03:34:09] <evocallaghan> normally has anon in there
[03:34:12] <evocallaghan> :|
[03:34:15] <deena> where can i download this package SUNWaudd?
[03:34:21] <deena> please guide me
[03:34:50] <asyd> sunwadd?
[03:34:52] <asyd> +u
[03:35:52] <deena> or else this one SUNWaudiohd
[03:37:04] <oninoshiko> deena: are you on SXCE?
[03:37:43] <deena> may i know what it is? i am new to opensolaris
[03:39:13] <oninoshiko> "Solaris Express Community Edition." on it those packages are on the installation media. (SUNWaudiohd anyway). i would expect you to use IPS on indiana (OpenSolaris 2008.11)
[03:39:23] <e^ipi> no, you may not know what it is. that's for the priesthood of UNIX to know. once you're OT6 you may know. this will require great investment of both time and money
[03:40:26] <oninoshiko> e^ipi, no channeling Tom Cruse
[03:40:47] <evocallaghan> deena: your need to download SXCE and loop mount it.
[03:41:05] <evocallaghan> there will be a SVR4 package sitting under Products
[03:41:09] <evocallaghan> hope this helps
[03:41:32] <deena> where can i download ? is it like yum in linux?
[03:43:31] <evocallaghan> no
[03:43:43] <evocallaghan> download the SXCE DVD ISO
[03:43:48] <evocallaghan> loop mount it
[03:44:08] <evocallaghan> Why do you need this package it should be already installed ?
[03:44:44] <deena> see my sound card was not detecting so tried to reinstall...
[03:44:55] <deena> i removed the package i need now to reinstall it
[03:45:52] <evocallaghan> :O
[03:45:56] <evocallaghan> OK
[03:46:03] <evocallaghan> You got the DVD handy ?
[03:46:45] <deena> do i download opensolaris "osol-0811.iso" iso
[03:47:12] <deena> will be it be there in that iso content those packages?
[03:47:12] <oninoshiko> deena: do you have the disk you installed with?
[03:47:17] <evocallaghan> deena: just answer what I am asking... I will help you if you follow what I am saying instead of asking random questions.
[03:47:25] <deena> ok
[03:47:30] <deena> please tell me
[03:47:40] <evocallaghan> Do you have the disk you installed from ?
[03:47:44] <deena> yes
[03:47:51] <evocallaghan> and is this disk the osol distro or SXCE ?
[03:48:08] <deena> osol distro..
[03:48:11] <evocallaghan> ok
[03:48:20] <evocallaghan> then you may use IPS to pull in the package again
[03:49:00] <evocallaghan> deena: what version are you running?
[03:49:04] <evocallaghan> uname -sv
[03:49:34] <deena> OpenSolaris? 2008.11 Live Media
[03:49:39] <deena> i am now in belenix
[03:49:54] <evocallaghan> right
[03:49:59] <evocallaghan> reboot into your system
[03:50:00] <deena> anyway both are same i hope
[03:50:09] <evocallaghan> so we have it running in front of us
[03:50:52] <deena> see i dont find any xchat by default in opensolaris
[03:50:58] <evocallaghan> If your on the belenix livecd then we can't continue to fix your osol without extra stuff going on. lets keep things simple
[03:51:12] <evocallaghan> www.ircatwork.com or pidgin
[03:51:31] <evocallaghan> deena: when your in your osol run
[03:51:41] <deena> ok
[03:51:42] <evocallaghan> `pfexec pkg install SUNWaudiohd`
[03:52:03] <evocallaghan> I'll be here when you reboot should you need more help

[04:59:28] <lewellyn> billions!? that's a big number ;)
[04:59:45] <Teltariat> lew!
[04:59:57] <Teltariat> how r yoo
[05:00:35] <lewellyn> annoyed, still.
[05:00:39] *** xinkeT has joined #opensolaris
[05:00:49] <Teltariat> what is it this time?
[05:02:59] <lewellyn> i'm still annoyed that moving my zfs partition has apparently borked it, and no one here's been able to tell me if the first few bytes of the partition look sane
[05:03:10] <lewellyn> so i stopped asking :P
[05:03:11] <Teltariat> did you do that with zfs send ?
[05:03:34] <lewellyn> um. no. i did a block-by-block copy with a dedicated partition mover :(
[05:03:39] <Teltariat> I've heard a lot of hearsay that zfs send and recv aren't very .... solid....
[05:03:44] <Teltariat> oh, ok
[05:03:45] <lewellyn> since i needed to move it "up" like 15gb
[05:03:52] <Teltariat> ouch
[05:03:55] <oninoshiko> Teltariat: from whom?
[05:03:56] <Teltariat> sorry to hear that
[05:04:07] <lewellyn> and i can't find any "zfs disaster recovery" tools
[05:04:07] <Teltariat> oninoshiko: here and there
[05:05:22] <Teltariat> I've got my own question.... I've got a Solaris domU set up to use a physical CD-ROM drive as its CD-ROM drive, problem is it wants to eject the CD-ROM, but the eject command isn't making it through... if I do the eject in the host, the domU no longer sees the device or device contents, and thus can't read the newly inserted CD
[05:05:42] <Teltariat> Doing a block detach hangs cause I guess the domU's waiting for the device.... dunno.....
[05:07:31] <oninoshiko> lewellyn: isnt there i doc descriing the on-disk format in painful detail (im not trying to give a sarcastic "rtfm" reply, i just dont have the expertese to help you more then that doc would)
[05:07:51] <oninoshiko> a*, describing*
[05:08:27] *** erast has quit IRC
[05:08:41] <lewellyn> i'm hoping to not have to write my own tool to snarf the contents of 3 directories which would just make life easier when i reinstall on friday (when 110 should be out)
[05:08:59] *** ry_screen has quit IRC
[05:09:22] <Teltariat> snarf the contents of 3 directories == pax ?
[05:09:44] <lewellyn> that would require mounting...
[05:10:01] <lewellyn> i've not booted sxce to see if the rpool is totally borked, yet
[05:10:08] <lewellyn> (the install cd, that is)
[05:10:19] <lewellyn> and yes, pax would suffice
[05:10:21] <Teltariat> I would try that
[05:10:33] <Teltariat> I would try a Solaris live CD to try to get at my borked pool
[05:10:42] <lewellyn> i'm afraid to do *anything* until i know how likely i'll make things works
[05:10:54] <Teltariat> There a nother drive that you could do a dd mirror to?
[05:10:55] <lewellyn> all i know is that booting that partition prints "GRUB" and it hangs
[05:11:02] <Teltariat> oh
[05:11:04] <Teltariat> in that case
[05:11:14] <Teltariat> its grub that doesn't know the starting point of the pool anymore, or something like that
[05:12:08] <Teltariat> maybe some of those commands available in the grub shell can be used to "repoint" GRUB to the moved pool
[05:12:08] <lewellyn> that's what i'm hoping, but i don't know if the on-disk blocks even seem sane
[05:12:11] <Teltariat> maybe
[05:12:37] <lewellyn> and the hd X,X location hasn't changed
[05:12:38] <Teltariat> Then I guess your best bet is to clone that disk so you have a disk you can at least experiment on
[05:12:54] <Teltariat> yeah, but grub probably had some disk location mapped in
[05:12:58] <lewellyn> ugh. which means trying to get an external usb disk bootable on this thing :P
[05:13:04] <Teltariat> which is no longer true now that things are moved
[05:13:09] <lewellyn> i gave up on that last time i thought it was a good idea
[05:13:27] <Teltariat> well, lew, its worth it. if you want to try some things out, you're gonna need a duplicate
[05:13:49] <lewellyn> which means figuring out why this machine doesn't like booting from USB-HDD
[05:13:58] <lewellyn> which may mean trying to get toshiba to fix a bios issue
[05:14:06] <Teltariat> crack open the usb enclosure and throw the disk into the machine
[05:14:17] <lewellyn> i don't have any spare 2.5" SATA disks that i can format lying about
[05:14:31] <lewellyn> all i have are 3.5" disks, mostly PATA, lying about atm
[05:15:00] <lewellyn> and the data isn't worth the cost of buying a new drive
[05:15:04] <lewellyn> + the time
[05:15:47] <Teltariat> i dunno; your call

[06:25:06] <mib_cvhvok> okay so far. yourself?
[06:25:54] <ukuswaa> with some troubles lol, just wondering if i could get some help around here
[06:26:15] *** MACscr1 has left #opensolaris
[06:26:18] <mib_cvhvok> i was hoping the same thing
[06:26:24] <mib_cvhvok> but little luck so far

[06:26:34] <mib_cvhvok> seems like everyone's asleep or something
[06:26:53] <ukuswaa> might just be that, it's 2.30 around here
[06:27:56] <ukuswaa> been trying to install the via rhine driver on osolaris 2008..... and didnt work
[06:28:14] <mib_cvhvok> you in south america?
[06:28:19] <ukuswaa> yes
[06:28:35] *** LordIllpalazo has joined #opensolaris
[06:28:37] <mib_cvhvok> yeah, sorry, cant help you with anything that sophisticated. Im a noob myself
[06:28:48] <ukuswaa> lol me too...
[06:29:26] <ukuswaa> worst thing is i've followed tutorials and trying for hours... frustrating
[06:29:51] <mib_cvhvok> i share your pain. ive been trying to set up a file server for days
[06:31:03] <ukuswaa> no luck ?
[06:31:22] <mib_cvhvok> well, it works in part, but not like i want
[06:31:42] <ukuswaa> at least it works......
[06:31:49] *** snowleopardcat has joined #opensolaris
[06:32:12] <ukuswaa> and I guess your NIC is up lol
[06:33:11] <mib_cvhvok> yeah. the problem is a bit more advanced than that. I have a zfs filesystem mounted at /tank, which is shared over the network. i can access that share no problem. i can access folders within that share no problem
[06:33:27] <snowleopardcat> what happens if ibm buys sun?
[06:33:45] <ukuswaa> ASolaris/400
[06:33:49] <snowleopardcat> mergers always seem to be bad
[06:33:53] <mib_cvhvok> but when i try to access a filesystem that is mounted beneath /tank (for example /tank/fsa) then i get an access denied error on my windows
[06:34:43] <mib_cvhvok> opensolaris is a community project with features that can't be beat. i doubt you'll have to worry about that going bad as a result of an IBM/Sun merger
[06:35:05] <ukuswaa> mib_cvhvok can't help you with that
[06:35:57] <mib_cvhvok> ukuswaa, yeah, nvm
[06:36:45] <ukuswaa> so here we are
[06:37:09] <ukuswaa> i'm stuck with some 10U$ NIC driver, can you believe it
[06:37:40] <lewellyn> ukuswaa: which driver are you trying to use?
[06:38:00] <ukuswaa> vfe for via rhine
[06:38:04] * lewellyn hasn't used a rhine in a while, and never under solaris, but may be able to point you in the right direction.
[06:38:15] <lewellyn> vfe that came with opensolaris? or a third-party one?
[06:38:40] <ukuswaa> osolaris has no driver for via rhine nic, so it's a 2rd party
[06:38:50] <ukuswaa> 3rd lol
[06:38:54] <lewellyn> and where did you get it from?
[06:38:59] * lewellyn plays 20 questions :P
[06:39:17] <victori> not sure but I just build postgresql on the sun studio compiler and it is noticeably slower than what was build with gcc 3.4
[06:39:22] <victori> built*
[06:39:22] <oninoshiko> snowleopardcat: noone knows, but if push comes to shove we still have the source (I got to explain that to my boss today)
[06:39:47] <ukuswaa> lol from a japanese guy's page recomended over the osolaris forums
[06:39:52] <lewellyn> victori: you're using proper compiler options?
[06:39:57] <lewellyn> ukuswaa: the nifty one?
[06:40:04] <victori> lewellyn: off the bat, nothing for both
[06:40:14] <victori> lewellyn: I have applied -xO3 and that obviously helped
[06:40:17] <snowleopardcat> when a company buys another it is always bad for the bought up company even though management says nothing will happen
[06:40:20] <ukuswaa> wait - looking up nifty
[06:40:34] <lewellyn> victori: sun studio likes compiler options.
[06:40:45] <lewellyn> if i may ask, what's wrong with the supplied postgres?
[06:40:51] <snowleopardcat> i say we download everything like sun studio etc for safe keeping
[06:40:57] <lewellyn> this isn't gentoo, there's good binaries with a base install ;)
[06:41:02] <victori> lewellyn: I use contrib and keep up to date
[06:41:15] <snowleopardcat> ibm is very propriatery
[06:41:23] <victori> I have a fairly complex postgresql setup , with a hot standby + log shipping
[06:41:24] <lewellyn> snowleopardcat: yes. that's why they ported jfs to linux :P
[06:41:38] <snowleopardcat> where is opensource db2 or aix?
[06:41:57] <ukuswaa> snowleopardcat, wow, you're really worried
[06:41:59] <lewellyn> i don't think ibm has the rights to opensource aix
[06:42:08] <snowleopardcat> its easy to port trinkets to the linux kernel
[06:42:08] <oninoshiko> snowleopardcat: well, SMI has been having some cash-flow issues, so being bought would probibly be preferable to failing
[06:42:09] <lewellyn> and where's opensource oracle?
[06:42:10] *** gerard13 has joined #opensolaris
[06:42:26] <snowleopardcat> sun opensourced the crown jewels imho
[06:42:27] *** Garen has joined #opensolaris
[06:42:30] <lewellyn> oninoshiko: i still say ibm being a viable suitor is improbable
[06:42:40] <snowleopardcat> apple would be a better suiter
[06:42:44] <lewellyn> snowleopardcat: hah no. they don't make money on solaris, per se.
[06:42:57] <lewellyn> so, they're pretty much getting users to pay with time instead of money
[06:42:58] <snowleopardcat> steve at least has taste
[06:43:26] <ukuswaa> haha taste
[06:43:55] <snowleopardcat> and it would complement the mac line. OS X on the desktop and Sun Apple as the server (Darwin swapped out for sunos)
[06:43:56] <oninoshiko> lewellyn: maybe, maybe not. im just pointing out if they are interested in contenuing development and SMI cant for financal reasons (looking likely)... I'll take it
[06:44:07] <lewellyn> ukuswaa: so were these the drivers from the nifty.com page?
[06:44:08] <e^ipi> yes, let's all play armchair CEO
[06:44:17] <e^ipi> having 0 experience at all managing a large company
[06:44:40] <snowleopardcat> we could probably do better than swartz
[06:44:45] <lewellyn> snowleopardcat: as likely as a snowball in hell. jobs loves mach and smalltalk.
[06:45:08] <snowleopardcat> jobs doesn't even know what smalltalk and mach is
[06:45:25] <ukuswaa> lewellyn can't remember exactly, there were several pages with those drivers. thing is, I compiled, added and tried and looked ok but after reboot didn't work
[06:45:27] <lewellyn> yeah. next grew out of his ass and it just happened to follow him to apple when he returned
[06:45:32] <snowleopardcat> but he knows how to sell expensive hardware, make it look really nice
[06:45:46] <g4lt-lappy> jobs? other than the trivial fact that he basically wrote smalltalk

[06:46:13] <g4lt-lappy> god ony knows woz wouldn't have come up with that bastardization
[06:46:17] <lewellyn> e^ipi: um. that's what i was implying, yes.
[06:46:28] <lewellyn> sarcasm doesn't work on irc
[06:46:43] <ukuswaa> lewellyn that one exactly
[06:46:43] <lewellyn> g4lt-lappy: no, instead the woz is dancing on tv :D
[06:46:47] <oninoshiko> lewellyn: not without the w3c approved tags
[06:46:51] <lewellyn> ukuswaa: it should have a binary
[06:47:01] <ukuswaa> snowleopardcat mac are pcs nowadays
[06:47:03] <g4lt-lappy> lewellyn, no arguments here. objectionable C and its antecedent smalltalk should have been abortions
[06:47:03] <lewellyn> oninoshiko: my client strips extraneous markup
[06:47:11] <mib_cvhvok> Yay, something is happening :) not everyone is asleep
[06:47:18] <snowleopardcat> ukuswaa: they are PCs but much better
[06:47:24] <g4lt-lappy> lewellyn, much more productive than any time spent with smalltalk ;P
[06:47:25] <e^ipi> snowleopardcat: no, they're pc's
[06:47:28] <e^ipi> pure and simple
[06:47:28] <lewellyn> ukuswaa: for the moment. apple still wants you to make UBs
[06:47:43] <ukuswaa> snowleopardcat I miss the powerpc processor
[06:47:53] <e^ipi> they have a DRM chip to prevent you from running OSX on anything but macs, but that's easily circumvented
[06:47:55] <snowleopardcat> my macbook is just beautiful, milled out of nice alluminum
[06:47:56] <lewellyn> and i have conspiray theories about the future of POWERPC
[06:48:08] <snowleopardcat> ukuswaa: me too, but ibm's processors were too slow
[06:48:09] <ukuswaa> lol
[06:48:11] <e^ipi> snowleopardcat: wank wank wank, it's just a PC...
[06:48:37] <lewellyn> e^ipi: an overpriced pc with some kinda-crappy hardware choices.
[06:48:40] <snowleopardcat> it's a pc with os x, very beautiful
[06:48:46] <ukuswaa> snowleopardcat no use if the only difference is how it looks. there are patches to run macos on pc even under vmware
[06:48:51] <e^ipi> i have a macbook, but it's just a PC *shrug*
[06:48:56] <snowleopardcat> no crapware vista

[06:53:45] <mib_cvhvok> can anyone help me figure out a problem with my CIFS server running on OpenSolaris?
[06:53:52] <snowleopardcat> i thought sun dropping sparc on many of its lower end models was a mistake too
[06:54:12] <ukuswaa> TI makes it better :P
[06:54:23] <oninoshiko> there is a difference between "lower end" and "everything"
[06:54:39] <g4lt-lappy> lewellyn, I don't count the PPC out yet, just the PPC mac
[06:54:46] <lewellyn> g4lt-lappy: even those ;)
[06:55:04] <g4lt-lappy> the PPC is alive and well in the RS/6000
[06:55:07] <oninoshiko> it makes sense to drop it on your lower end kit if you cant do the volume production to compete in the field
[06:55:11] <lewellyn> g4lt-lappy: look at some of their acquisitions, and the fact that they don't need to license the technology from anyone
[06:55:29] <ukuswaa> lewellyn tx anyway
[06:55:56] <lewellyn> g4lt-lappy: i seem to recall that PPC has better bang per watt than x86
[06:56:23] <lewellyn> so it's not infeasible to think that there's a chance we'll see ppc laptops again at some point
[06:56:36] <snowleopardcat> sun should've figured out how to use the volume sparc to make sparc competitive
[06:56:42] <g4lt-lappy> lewellyn, yeah, and it's big blues' flag. never gonna die
[06:56:53] <oninoshiko> lewellyn: i dont think the average user is bright enough to look at runtime

[06:58:35] <g4lt-lappy> why yes, I DO want cheese with my whine
[06:58:36] <lewellyn> and intel's going to have a hell of a time providing performance-per-watt to meet POWER or SPARC
[06:58:59] <lewellyn> g4lt-lappy: screw that. i want a high-clock-speed IIi laptop :D
[06:59:32] <oninoshiko> snowleopardcat: except that x86 isnt designed to scale beyond a dozen processors
[06:59:43] <mib_cvhvok> can someone please help me figure out why I get an access denied error when trying to access a filesystem with a mountpoint inside a filesystem that's shared over the network?
[06:59:49] <lewellyn> better at power-savings, while still having enough performance for an average user on the go
[06:59:49] <oninoshiko> (and im being nice here)
[06:59:51] <ukuswaa> intel is working on a 80 core processor
[06:59:51] <snowleopardcat> they have all those founderies
[06:59:54] <lblume> I wish the rumor had been with Microsoft - would make for more interesting debates here :-)
[06:59:59] <g4lt-lappy> lewellyn, hell, the 500 MHz is a room heater
[07:00:07] <lewellyn> g4lt-lappy: but low-power :)
[07:00:26] <lewellyn> it's what? 12 power states? on the IIi
[07:00:33] <g4lt-lappy> yeah, but I had a bitch of a time keeping my SB100 cool in the summer
[07:00:36] <snowleopardcat> and will just redesign the chip to add an x86 instruction set to whatever they come up with
[07:00:47] <oninoshiko> ukuswaa: im sure they are. i can get a 40 core processor now, with wattages appropriate for embedded useage
[07:00:50] <lewellyn> i'm in san francisco. i have no problems with my v100s :)
[07:01:11] *** ken has joined #opensolaris
[07:01:17] <g4lt-lappy> yeah, hard to get thew soup in SF to be too hot
[07:01:33] <g4lt-lappy> like breathing a swinmming pool
[07:01:35] <snowleopardcat> how's san fran
[07:01:35] <ukuswaa> I'm in Argentina, and I have problems with my NIC. I'm going to sleep and tomorrow will buy a solaris-compatible NIC.
[07:01:45] <oninoshiko> snowleopardcat: with eveything they bolt on the processor gets exponentally more complex. that's the fundemental problem with x86 as an arcitecture
[07:02:07] <lewellyn> anyhow, this conversation isn't getting my IDLE calls to not lag my virtual machine.
[07:02:12] * lewellyn wanders off
[07:02:13] <snowleopardcat> oninoshiko: true, but intel has a lot of money and chip fabs to throw at the problem
[07:02:26] <ukuswaa> so, thanks and we'll see you some day
[07:02:28] <ukuswaa> bye

[07:03:10] <mib_cvhvok> pretty please, some help with CIFS on opensolaris?
[07:03:36] <oninoshiko> mib_cvhvok: if we knew how to help you we probibly would have said somthing by now

[07:04:07] <oninoshiko> personally im still eyeing one of the intellesys dev kits
[07:04:45] <mib_cvhvok> oninoshiko: I thought my outcries for help got lost in the heated platform-discussion. I was expecting something like 'sorry, cant help'
[07:05:35] <oninoshiko> mib_cvhvok: there are over 300 people in this channel. if everyone who couldn't help said so every time there would be ALOT of noise
[07:06:11] <oninoshiko> generally in most major IRC channels if you dont get a reply dispite activity, it's best to try back later.
[07:06:48] <mib_cvhvok> oninoshiko: its the middle of the night in the States. There really wasn't any activity for a while, so I figured noone was around.
[07:06:51] <oninoshiko> you also might post a message on the storage-discuss forum
[07:06:51] <mib_cvhvok> oninoshiko: but thanks for the hint
[07:07:02] <mib_cvhvok> oninoshiko: Cant say I got a lot of IRC experience
[07:07:45] <oninoshiko> it's ok. noone starts out knowing everything (except me, just ask me, ill tell you ;p)
[07:08:10] <mib_cvhvok> oninoshiko: :P
[07:09:06] *** ken-w has quit IRC
[07:09:30] <mib_cvhvok> oninoshiko: Never really had the need to use IRC. But because the number of Solaris users seems to be a) smaller than the linux user group and b) more technically advanced, I cant find the answers Im looking for on Google
[07:09:40] <oninoshiko> well you are right about it being the middle of the night in the amaricas... and i have to work in the morning
[07:10:00] <Garen> 11:11 PST here
[07:10:01] <mib_cvhvok> oninoshiko: Im sitting AT work at the moment...
[07:10:14] <oninoshiko> i spent alot of time on IRC in the 90s
[07:10:53] <oninoshiko> anyway, night/day/whatever everyone
[07:11:06] <mib_cvhvok> oninoshiko: see ya
[07:11:38] *** niq has quit IRC
[07:13:32] <Topdeck_> mib_cvhvok: what's your CIFS problem exactly?
[07:14:23] <lewellyn> mib_cvhvok: i thinkmost solaris users have used solaris long enough to not need to google the basics. ;)
[07:14:47] <snowleopardcat> lewellyn: coming from linux, solaris was very backward
[07:14:52] <lewellyn> mib_cvhvok: and opensolaris stuff is new
[07:14:58] *** yippi has joined #opensolaris
[07:15:00] <lewellyn> snowleopardcat: that's because linux shuns tradition and sanity.
[07:15:07] <mib_cvhvok> lewellyn: hey
[07:15:17] *** pgr has joined #opensolaris
[07:15:18] <snowleopardcat> everything was allover the place, gnu wasn't were I expected and ksh was really old
[07:15:19] <lewellyn> mib_cvhvok: ?
[07:15:21] <mib_cvhvok> lewellyn: my scenario is as follows
[07:15:42] <snowleopardcat> but using it, solaris made sense after a while
[07:15:49] <snowleopardcat> and now i cant stand linux
[07:15:51] <lewellyn> snowleopardcat: ksh is the required ksh88, ksh93 is well... ksh93. and gnu is non-standard and stuff :P
[07:16:24] <snowleopardcat> especially with the abi that keeps moving. a modem i had on the 2.4 kernel stopped working in 2.6
[07:17:00] <mib_cvhvok> lewellyn: I have a zfs filesystem mounted at /tank. I used zfs set sharesmb=on to share it. Its accessible from the windows clients in the network, no problem. However, once I create filesystems inside /tank (ie. /tank/examplea and /tank/exampleb), I get an access denied error on my windows client
[07:17:04] <lewellyn> yeah. that's the difference between solaris and linux kernels. solaris stuff just goes "unsupported" until it dies of natural causes ;)
[07:17:15] <mib_cvhvok> lewellyn: when trying to access \\opensolaris\tank\examplea and so on
[07:17:26] <Topdeck_> mib_cvhvok: have you tried with chmod 777 on those directories?
[07:17:34] <lewellyn> mib_cvhvok: i haven't used zfs's smb stuff. it's too new for me.
[07:17:45] <DerSaidin> mib_cvhvok: I thought it'd be at
[07:17:48] <lewellyn> and still not documented enough for my tastes
[07:17:53] <DerSaidin> \\opensolaris\examplea
[07:17:55] <Topdeck_> mib_cvhvok: does `sharemgr show -vp` give the names of the shares you'd expect?
[07:18:13] <Topdeck_> they may be shared as \\opensolaris\tank_examplea
[07:18:20] <mib_cvhvok> Topdeck_: yes, there is full access on those filesystems.

[07:18:35] <DerSaidin> you can do something along the lines of sharesmb=sharename=whatever
[07:18:51] <Topdeck_> sharesmb=name=whatever
[07:18:58] <victori> does sun studio express -fast enable -xO3?
[07:19:03] <victori> where can I get a cflags chart?
[07:19:14] <lewellyn> hahaha. i misread this headline as "New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson bans death"
[07:19:22] <lewellyn> the word penalty wrapped to the next line
[07:19:28] <mib_cvhvok> Topdeck_: yes, i get the sharenames that I expect, and yes, they are also shared as \\opensolaris\tank_examplea
[07:19:31] <digimano> anyone knows how to install/start webconsole in opensolaris 2008.11?
[07:19:32] <lewellyn> victori: there's a few on sun.com
[07:20:02] <Topdeck_> mib_cvhvok: how are you authenticating?
[07:20:08] <lewellyn> i'm on windows with different bookmarks atm, so i can't provide them handily
[07:20:25] <mib_cvhvok> Topdeck_: however, it would be a poor configuration for me to have to rely on \\opensolaris\tank_examplea, rather than having examplea accessible directly from within the tank share
[07:20:30] *** asarch has quit IRC
[07:20:33] <DerSaidin> mib_cvhvok: iirc, theres a -o when you create a child zfs to inherit permissions from parent. by default I don't think it does that
[07:20:57] <lewellyn> mib_cvhvok: is /tank/examplea a different dataset?
[07:21:18] <Topdeck_> mib_cvhvok: definitely, just the weird name trips people up sometimes
[07:22:12] <mib_cvhvok> DerSaidin: sorry, you lost me. What about -o?
[07:22:42] <lewellyn> mib_cvhvok: -o only applies if examplea is a different dataset
[07:22:44] <victori> lewellyn: quite hidden then
[07:23:27] * lewellyn digs up his google-fu for victori :P
[07:23:40] <mib_cvhvok> DerSaidin: sorry, im a solaris-noob. can you explain please what im supposed to do?
[07:24:18] <DerSaidin> try setting the child zfs' property aclmode=passthrough
[07:24:20] <Topdeck_> mib_cvhvok: it shouldn't matter what the properties of the examplea filesystem are, as you're just trying to access that folder
[07:24:32] <lewellyn> didn't even need google. yay sdn and saneness
[07:24:33] <Topdeck_> so you can access \\opensolaris\tank just fine?
[07:24:34] <lewellyn> http://developers.sun.com/solaris/articles/options.html
[07:24:40] <Topdeck_> what about other files/dirs in there?

[07:26:05] <mib_cvhvok> Topdeck_: Ordinary folders within the tank share are accessible without problems
[07:26:36] <mib_cvhvok> DerSaidin: did zfs set aclmode=passthrough tank/examplea .... access denied error persists on windows machine though
[07:27:00] <lewellyn> victori: is that what you wanted?
[07:27:13] <victori> lewellyn: thank you
[07:27:22] *** myosound has quit IRC
[07:27:29] <mib_cvhvok> Topdeck_: yes, i can access \\opensolaris\tank just fine. \\opensolaris\tank\folder1 also is accessible fine. Just filesystems mounted unter tank dont work
[07:27:32] <victori> I was going over site:sun.com all kinds of crazy key words
[07:27:37] <lewellyn> victori: seriously, there's a *lot* of stuff on sun's site. learning to navigate it will definitely help you out :)
[07:28:10] <Topdeck_> mib_cvhvok: what you meant "mounted under"?
[07:28:30] <lewellyn> victori: following the links in that document, you can end up not working on anything useful for days ;)
[07:29:50] <snowleopardcat> what if IBM closes the source for solaris? Does solaris compile with the gnu toolset? if sun studio is taken away, is solaris doomed? This is why i'm downloading the solaris source and a copy of sun studio.
[07:30:17] <mib_cvhvok> Topdeck_: maybe my terminology is off. examplea is not a folder, but a filesystem. its mountpoint is tank/examplea
[07:30:30] <snowleopardcat> before its lost forever. too many bad experiences with mergers the alpha processer, doomed by compaq
[07:30:45] <mib_cvhvok> Topdeck_: (basically, i did zfs create tank/examplea to create it)
[07:30:52] <Topdeck_> ok, cool
[07:30:53] <g4lt-lappy> snow if IBM closes the source for solaris, I'll LMAO
[07:30:54] * lewellyn lets snowleopardcat worry about that which is not likely to happen and gets on with his life
[07:31:19] <lblume> snowleopardcat: Solaris 10 was actually built with GCC, because Studio did not do x64 at the time.
[07:31:51] <g4lt-lappy> speaking of studio, did anyone play with early release 12 yet?
[07:31:52] <snowleopardcat> g4lt-lappy: Why would you laugh if IBM kills solaris?
[07:32:08] <g4lt-lappy> snowleopardcat, BECAUWSE IT'S A FO0OKING SUN PRODUCT
[07:32:17] <snowleopardcat> ibm is buying sun
[07:32:38] <g4lt-lappy> they forgot to tell me, and I'm a stockholder in both
[07:32:46] <lblume> Do you need to stab all existing DVDs to kill it? Or just one, symbolically?
[07:32:46] <snowleopardcat> its in the news
[07:32:52] <Topdeck_> mib_cvhvok: although I can replicate your problem very easily
[07:33:21] <snowleopardcat> sun CEO announce that windows will be discontinued
[07:33:24] <lblume> Will it suffer? I'm against all unecessary pain in when slaying software.
[07:33:45] <lblume> Sun bought Microsoft while nobody was looking?
[07:33:46] <snowleopardcat> i know corporations, and i know ibm will harm solaris
[07:33:56] <snowleopardcat> if given the chance
[07:34:06] <mib_cvhvok> Topdeck_: you can replicate it? good, so it's not just me
[07:34:07] <lblume> Bad, bad IBM.
[07:34:17] <snowleopardcat> the smart choice in these situations is to download everything while you still have the chance
[07:34:30] <g4lt-lappy> so IBM will close off solars and Sun is discontinuing windows. what news are you looking at, the onion?
[07:34:33] <lblume> Luckily, they've been infiltrated, thus they offer Solaris support now.
[07:34:37] <x58> snowleopardcat: That is just overre-acting.
[07:34:49] <x58> Wow, my spelling sucks.
[07:34:53] <snowleopardcat> what happend to alpha when conquered by compaq?
[07:35:08] <Topdeck_> mib_cvhvok: and that's on 101b and 109, we must be missing something simple, I'm sure
[07:35:15] <lblume> trochej's secret stash of coffee seems to have been plundered by snowleopardcat.
[07:35:17] <snowleopardcat> what happended to compaq when conquered by hp?
[07:35:18] <x58> If IBM does eventually buy Sun, I doubt they are going to close OpenSolaris again, I think they will make it more open if anything.
[07:35:22] <DerSaidin> Topdeck_ or mib_cvhvok: check acls of those folders in the child you can't access
[07:35:29] <snowleopardcat> HAHAHA
[07:35:40] <snowleopardcat> IBM is so closed source its not funny
[07:35:53] <mib_cvhvok> DerSaidin: I checked the ACLs. full access for everyone
[07:35:58] <snowleopardcat> the only opensource they do is throw a few bones to linux and eclipse
[07:36:02] <x58> The interesting thing would be to see what they are going to do with the top tier Solaris support contracts, and how it is going to affect AIX and their server lineup.
[07:36:22] <snowleopardcat> if they opensourced AIX or DB2, then i'd trust them
[07:36:34] <x58> Why?
[07:37:07] <lblume> They could be bought anytime afterwards by McDonalds, or PepsiCo.
[07:37:07] <mib_cvhvok> DerSaidin: its worth mentioning that when accessing the \\opensolaris\tank_examplea share, which is automatically created since zfs automatically shares all filesystems within a parent filesystem, works as expected. just accessing examplea though the \\opensolaris\tank share, that's whats causing the problem
[07:37:10] <g4lt-lappy> snowleopardcat, really? funny, what happened with their Linsux push?
[07:37:17] <lblume> And PepsiCo is /so/ closed source.
[07:37:27] <snowleopardcat> opensourcing DB2 would show they believe in opensource
[07:37:29] <Topdeck_> DerSaidin: `/usr/bin/ls -lVh` shows permissions exactly the same on the filesystem which I can't access, and the folder I can
[07:37:53] <g4lt-lappy> snowleopardcat, so would installing linsux on their flagship. wait, they do that
[07:37:54] <lewellyn> snowleopardcat: it'd also show that they've spent too much money buying IP rights that won't pay off in the end
[07:37:58] <e^ipi> snowleopardcat: people already think they do, so they've already won
[07:38:11] <e^ipi> no need for a flashy PR move when you already have the PR
[07:38:37] <snowleopardcat> e^ipi: ibm won the pr war, but sun is the real opensource deal
[07:38:43] <lewellyn> see, if they bought the IP for the non-IBM parts of os/2 and opensourced *that*, it'd show goodwill
[07:38:52] <e^ipi> snowleopardcat: who cares?
[07:38:55] <x58> I'll be really surprised if OpenSolaris suddenly goes away if IBM buys Sun.
[07:38:59] <e^ipi> if it ships more tin, it ships more tin
[07:39:08] <snowleopardcat> no IBM product is opensource, their linux and eclipse is just a marketing expense
[07:39:14] <e^ipi> again, who cares
[07:39:15] <lewellyn> x58: i'll be surprised if ibm buys sun
[07:39:25] <snowleopardcat> ibm will buy them to kill them offf
[07:39:30] <lewellyn> snowleopardcat: so whose project was jfs again?
[07:39:51] <e^ipi> IBM is known as friendly to open source, so they don't need to be friendlier ... anyone that's going to buy machines from "the open source friendly company" will
[07:39:51] <snowleopardcat> a good way to get rid of a competitor in a down market. then it will only be ibm dell and hp
[07:40:03] <lewellyn> sure looks like an opensourcing of their flagship filesystem
[07:40:04] <snowleopardcat> for now
[07:40:48] <x58> lewellyn: There are apparently talks... not sure how much to take away from a supposed leaked thing like that.
[07:40:51] <x58> Anything is possible.
[07:41:03] *** mib_cvhvok has quit IRC
[07:41:03] <lblume> Why would IBM need Solaris anyway?
[07:41:06] <lewellyn> x58: 1) it doesn't make good sense. 2) the feds would prohibit it.
[07:41:14] <lblume> They bought Transitive and its emuator in December.
[07:41:16] <snowleopardcat> you guys are naive. there won' t be sun studio 12 when you need it if IBM buys em up
[07:41:32] <lewellyn> lblume: they don't. and they don't need mysql. and they don't need sparc. and they don't need zfs. and they don't need...
[07:41:37] <x58> lewellyn: I agree.
[07:41:48] <snowleopardcat> lewellyn: exactly!
[07:41:52] <lblume> lewellyn: I so completely agree.
[07:42:00] <snowleopardcat> this move is just to buy sun to kill the company
[07:42:06] <lewellyn> all this has done is drive up stock price :)
[07:42:10] <snowleopardcat> like oracle does
[07:42:21] <lewellyn> ibm isn't oracle.
[07:42:22] <snowleopardcat> i'd expect this move from larry ellison
[07:42:29] <lewellyn> they buy things with good intent and just let them languish
[07:42:32] <lblume> Ad they don't need to be tied for the remained 8 years of Solaris and hardware support that Sun is tied to by contracts.
[07:42:51] <lewellyn> lblume: doesn't the 10 years start over for S10U7? ;)

[07:45:24] <x58> haha

[07:55:18] *** comay has quit IRC
[07:55:22] <mib_huotpm> ive come across the nbmand property a number of times. Is that of some relevance here?
[07:55:52] <x58> mib_huotpm: what does your sharemgr show -vp show ?
[07:56:01] <x58> `sharemgr show -vp`
[07:57:38] <mib_huotpm> x58: shows as expected. tank = /tank, tank_examplea = /tank/examplea
[07:57:48] <x58> okay
[07:57:58] <x58> so your share is \\opensolar\tank_examplea
[07:58:04] <Topdeck_> x58: it looks fine, and you can access the top-level share and everything in it fine, the problem is the filesystem tank/examplea _looks_ like a folder, but is actually a filesystem
[07:58:07] <Topdeck_> or something
[07:58:09] <x58> not \\opensolaris\tank\example
[07:58:40] <Topdeck_> x58: no the share is \\opensolaris\tank, then there is a folder in there called examplea which is actually a filesystem created with zfs
[07:59:13] <mib_huotpm> x58: yes, Im aware of that. That works fine. but for the sake of naming simplicity and user friendliness, id very much like to be able to access \\opensolaris\tank\examplea.
[08:00:15] <x58> Hmmm, if this were NFS I would say it is not possible since NFS does not allow one to cross mount points, maybe the CIFS implementation in Solaris inherited that.
[08:01:12] <mib_huotpm> x58: thats what I was wondering too... can I file a bug somewhere?
[08:01:27] <mib_huotpm> x58: it may not be a bug, but at least its something that should be fixed

[08:03:29] <mib_huotpm> x58: huh. All of the sudden, OpenSolaris is a much less interesting choice :(
[08:03:55] <x58> mib_huotpm: Use Samba like you would on Linux/BSD.
[08:04:02] <e^ipi> you could just rename the share *shrug*
[08:04:10] <e^ipi> zfs set sharesmb=name="porn"
[08:04:57] <mib_huotpm> e^ipi: lol, yes, i could. But the point is user friendliness. Having everything within a single share is how it is at the moment, and therefore is also how it should stay
[08:05:23] <Topdeck_> mib_huotpm: but does everything have to be another filesystem under tank?
[08:05:58] <lewellyn> mib_huotpm: then do what i do and use samba. not that hard.
[08:06:55] <mib_huotpm> Topdeck_: It does need to be separate filesystems, since i need quotas to work.
[08:07:14] <Topdeck_> bugger
[08:07:43] <Topdeck_> then I guess the real samba is the way to go, I don't have experience with that on OS though
[08:08:10] <mib_huotpm> Topdeck_: how about some kind of work around? could I create a file system, mount it elsewhere and create a symlink called examplea in tank?
[08:08:27] <Topdeck_> mib_huotpm: only one way to find out, I guess
[08:08:35] *** Fullmoon has quit IRC
[08:08:45] <mib_huotpm> Topdeck_: Well I dont know how to create symlinks... :P
[08:08:46] <x58> mib_huotpm: That would still make the CIFS implementation cross mount point boundaries.
[08:09:07] <skullone> ive seen this dicussed before.. if i recall, sun said that each file system must be a seperate share, the way zfs interacts with cifs
[08:09:13] <skullone> and its not likely going to change ever
[08:09:20] *** Fullmoon has joined #opensolaris
[08:09:43] <skullone> i had the same concern... but we modified our apps a bit, and now its a non-issue
[08:10:32] <mib_huotpm> skullone: darn. thats a shame.
[08:10:39] <oenone> if i recall correctly, samba has the same limitation
[08:10:50] <DerSaidin> mib_huotpm: is there a good reason to have separate zfs children?
[08:10:59] <x58> DerSaidin: quota's
[08:11:39] <x58> oenone: I was under the impression that the real Samba implementation could cross mount point boundaries.
[08:11:50] <mib_huotpm> skullone: Yes, I've played with the thoughts of the alternate scenarios two: ditch qutoas and use folders instead, or ditch the current file organization and teach the users a new way
[08:12:09] <oenone> it's been a while since i used samba, so i could be wrong, but last time it couldn't
[08:12:18] <Topdeck_> mib_huotpm: good luck with that, I'm off home
[08:12:20] <skullone> if they map these shares, shouldnt this be transparent to them?
[08:12:24] <mib_huotpm> skullone: and somehow I think that ditching the quotas is probably easier
[08:13:35] <th> x58: oenone: samba can even follow a symlink to an other filesystem
[08:13:56] <oenone> okay, then ignore my comment, it's outdated ;)
[08:14:20] <mib_huotpm> skullone: at the moment, everyone shares a single network drive which is automatically connected at login. The advantage of this is that it allows users to share files amongst each other very comfortably, since everyone has their own folder within the common network drive. If some files are private, the user still has the option to set the ACL accordingly
[08:14:28] <x58> th: I never said it couldn't, the CIFS implementation in Solaris/OpenSolaris won't though.
[08:14:37] <mib_huotpm> so how do i get 'real' samba then?
[08:14:45] <x58> mib_huotpm: pkg add SUNWsmba
[08:14:57] <Lumb> Samba de Janeiro! tsa-tsa-tsa!
[08:15:35] <mib_huotpm> im gonna have to mess around with smb.conf, rather than the zfs command, right? uurgh ... :(
[08:15:42] <skullone> indeed
[08:15:50] <x58> mib_huotpm: yes.
[08:19:05] <mib_huotpm> hmm. alright, I'll give it a try. Samba also has lower performance, right? since the OpenSolaris CIFS server is a kernel module or something (dont nail me on the terminology here, but i hope you know what i mean)
[08:20:21] <mib_huotpm> OpenSol was the OS of my dreams.... low cost, high performance file system, easy to maintain, CIFS built right into the kernel............
[08:20:32] *** luc^ has joined #opensolaris
[08:20:57] <lewellyn> mib_huotpm: it's young. it's got rough edges. give it time.
[08:21:00] <x58> mib_huotpm: Samba's performance should be on-par with that of OpenSolaris.
[08:21:40] *** carl- has joined #opensolaris
[08:22:01] <e^ipi> yes, nothing speeds a server up like context switches...
[08:22:28] <skullone> im pleased with the in kernel cifs service
[08:22:38] <mib_huotpm> okay. its downloading the package. connection is a little slow on this side of the globe, so i'll report back in a couple minutes
[08:22:38] <skullone> the benefits for me outweight the rough edges
[08:22:46] <skullone> and the edges get polished every build
[08:23:01] <x58> e^ipi: I get the same speed pulling the same amount of data from a Linux server running Samba and an OpenSolaris server running its own implementation of CIFS.
[08:23:26] <skullone> i get Gbit speeds, every transfer, at all times... since, well, im limited by Gbit =/
[08:23:48] <x58> Sure, the Linux server is using more CPU time.
[08:24:02] <x58> end result is still the same, the files come down at Gigbit speeds.
[08:24:47] <skullone> my x4540's have quite a workload... cifs, nfs, and iscsi volumes
[08:24:53] <skullone> its at full Gbit 24/7 nearly

[08:30:28] <e^ipi> write performance ( what you need for ZIL ) on an SSD seems to not be significantly better than on a spinning platter

[10:23:43] <perlmongo> e^ipi: "flame kissed to perfection" :-D
[10:24:06] <e^ipi> Ramdac_: because lowering power consumption was never a concern of an operating system designed to be run on machines that take 480V 3-phase
[10:24:39] <Ramdac_> e^ipi:so i cant use solaris on my laptop?
[10:24:44] <e^ipi> you can
[10:24:50] <trochej> I do
[10:24:51] <e^ipi> many do
[10:24:59] <perlmongo> I do
[10:25:11] <e^ipi> just understand that laptops were never the target market
[10:25:34] <trochej> It's better than a year ago
[10:26:03] <Ramdac_> e^ipi:for example ubuntu the batter stays approximately 2 hours while on solaris it stays 1 hours
[10:26:09] *** Erwann has joined #opensolaris
[10:26:14] <perlmongo> things are looking grim if you have "old" hardware, but if you have a fairly modern laptop, power management is slowly getting better
[10:26:42] <e^ipi> Ramdac_: not surprising. linux sacrifices many things to work on desktops and laptops
[10:27:30] <e^ipi> one might wonder why you'd bother, considering you have X and associated desktops on the one hand, and sacrificed higher-end to fit on shitty machines on the other
[10:28:06] <e^ipi> it's really the worst of both worlds there
[10:28:31] <Ramdac_> e^ipi:i'd bother cuz if oneday i have to make a presentation and talk to te public while using solaris
[10:28:46] <e^ipi> hint: windows or OSX give you even better battery life than linux
[10:29:01] <e^ipi> and aren't a hassle to use
[10:29:12] <Ramdac_> e^ipi:linux give better battery than windows
[10:29:29] <perlmongo> get an Acer Aspire One, I have one and it works beautifully, I even connected it to a projector when I gave training recently, worked like a charm
[10:29:30] <samc> Ramdac_: it's only been very recently that Linux's power management on laptops has gotten pretty good, and loads of distributions have been aiming at the laptop and desktop market for ages now
[10:29:43] <SQlvpapir> It does on my thinkpad at least..
[10:29:51] <samc> Ramdac_: it's only pretty recently that people have been trying to make solaris work on anything other than servers, so stuff like that will probably be a long time coming ;)
[10:29:54] <perlmongo> ...and I run SXCE on the AA1
[10:30:24] <flyingparchment> samc: that's not exactly true, sun has been making workstations as long as they existed
[10:30:42] <samc> flyingparchment: oh sorry, true that
[10:31:01] <e^ipi> battery life isn't a typical concern when one is talking about a machine without a battery
[10:31:01] <samc> flyingparchment: even so, not laptops .. and I guess power management wasn't as much of a concern ;)
[10:31:33] <chrisg> tbh
[10:31:36] <chrisg> on the coffee machine thing
[10:31:38] <chrisg> i can understand it
[10:31:42] <chrisg> for insurance etc
[10:31:46] <asyd> coffeee
[10:31:52] <samc> Ramdac_: search for 'opensolaris speedstep' on google .. seems like there's some code around to do cpu frequency scaling (which will make a massive difference to your battery life) .. not sure if it Just Works by default though, or if you need to mess with some knobs to make it go
[10:32:10] <Ramdac_> samc:ok
[10:32:54] <samc> Ramdac_: and check out http://opensolaris.org/os/community/laptop/power/ if you haven't already
[10:34:07] <Ramdac_> guys can i boot solaris using LILO?
[10:34:39] <flyingparchment> you can make lilo load grub in the same way you'd make it load windows
[10:35:31] <samc> don't think so, lilo's missing a lot of the smarts that grub has - grub knows how to find the kernel and other related files by looking at the disk structure, whereas all pretty much all lilo does is start executing from a known point on the disk
[10:35:48] <samc> but yeah like flyingparchment says you can use lilo to boot grub from the boot sector of your partition
[10:36:38] <Ramdac_> cuz i want to install slackware but i think i will not install LILO
[10:37:04] <Ramdac_> and continue using GRUB to boot slackware.
[10:37:05] <g4lt-lappy> of course grub is also trying to do too much IMO, it's becoming a BIOS/openprom in and of itself

[10:48:16] <lewellyn> i wish there were a real middle-ground alternative :P
[10:48:36] <lewellyn> lilo is so primitive and linux-specific, and grub's only missing emacs

[11:51:25] <lewellyn> CosmicDJ: huh? who uses GPT disks besides apple?

[11:51:43] <lewellyn> samc: it works
[11:51:48] <samc> lewellyn: doesn't zfs, if you give it a full disk?
[11:52:02] <lewellyn> you just have to configure your kernel to have the proper boot options
[11:52:11] <lewellyn> and i dunno what zfs does to a full disk
[11:52:14] <samc> yeah, I remember the tool that wrote your root= and stuff into it
[11:52:40] <lewellyn> you can pass /dev/hda to that tool ;)
[11:52:52] <lewellyn> but it's safer to modify the file and dd again

[11:55:27] <Stric> .. um.. what?
[11:55:46] <Stric> why is it so easy? well.. because.. it is..?
[11:56:12] <lewellyn> cd /etc/inet && cp ntp.client ntp.conf && vi ntp.conf && svcadm enable ntp
[11:56:14] <oenone> lol
[11:56:30] <lewellyn> all you gotta do is put a server name in that file :)
[11:56:54] * lewellyn doesn't know why those files don't default to pool.ntp.org
[11:57:18] <lewellyn> seems that it'd be easier to just tell people "copy the desired file and enable the service"
[11:57:27] <seanmcg> lewellyn, cause one can have machines off the internet..
[11:57:55] *** e1kg has joined #OpenSolaris
[11:58:15] <Stric> seanmcg: in that case, no default is sane anyway
[11:58:50] <CosmicDJ> well the default is to sync to multicast ntp...
[11:58:54] <lewellyn> for 99% of users, it'd still be sane since it would prefer the multicast, no?
[11:59:49] <CosmicDJ> anyway, there is no default since there's no /etc/inet/ntp.conf ;)
[12:00:29] <Randello> I can't reach to setup a ntp so my client can sync
[12:01:45] <mib_4yekcr38> will it be problem if we have 2 or 3 minutes in ntp sync in the client side?
[12:02:21] <lewellyn> Randello: do you have internet access?
[12:02:32] <lewellyn> mib_4yekcr38: ?
[12:02:40] * oenone uses de.pool.ntp.org

[12:03:31] <mib_4yekcr38> we are having login problem in some server if we time gets differ from server to client
[12:03:34] <lewellyn> i forget where my main box syncs to. as long as all my times are in sync, that's all that really matters ;)
[12:03:37] *** wbkang has quit IRC
[12:03:39] <Randello> lewelly yes, but ntp servers and clients are in lan
[12:03:40] * CosmicDJ uses a gps clock ;)
[12:04:17] <lewellyn> mib_4yekcr38: are you using otp or krb or something? if so, make sure all your clocks are synced to the same timeserver
[12:04:23] *** ggeecko has quit IRC
[12:05:02] <lewellyn> Randello: on the lan, choose a machine to be a "server". have that sync to the ntp pool and broadcast on the lan. then have the machines on the lan listen to multicast
[12:05:04] <mib_4yekcr38> otp means?
[12:05:12] <lewellyn> mib_4yekcr38: it's a password thing
[12:05:26] <lewellyn> mib_4yekcr38: as a rule, life is easier if your clocks are the same though
[12:06:00] <Randello> lewellyn, I'am trying to doing that
[12:06:09] <Randello> but I doen't work
[12:06:21] <Randello> it
[12:07:09] <mib_4yekcr38> see we faced problem when our time got changed from PST to PDT... i found out some of the client server was not syncing with primary server
[12:07:15] <Randello> xntpd starts, from netstat I see that it listens, but ntpdate clients don't work
[12:07:28] <CosmicDJ> mib_4yekcr38: when the time difference is too high, they won't sync
[12:07:46] <mib_4yekcr38> when we checked all solaris 10 has ntp is disabled by default on boot
[12:08:07] <mib_4yekcr38> so what i did, i stop the ntp service
[12:08:12] <CosmicDJ> Randello: show us your ntp.conf (pastebin)
[12:08:27] <mib_4yekcr38> and issued this command ntpdate servername
[12:08:31] <CosmicDJ> Randello: and maybe ntpdate errors
[12:08:34] <mib_4yekcr38> and then restart the ntp service
[12:08:39] <mib_4yekcr38> it is getting sync

[14:12:13] <Lab-One> hi to all, i've a problem with zpool. My machine crash and i've a root disk with a 5 pool disk. I need to change this thisk to another machine for restore my system. But when i boot i get "i/o device have been retired". I think it's the order of disk i try some tests but not works, someone know how i can restore?
[14:13:39] <asyd> hmm the order of the disks (is suppose to) doesn't matters

[15:22:03] <chrisr> because it means they have probably left their card in the sunray, and its taking up resources
[15:23:23] <gerard13> chrisr i'm also working in a laboratory, but if you constrain card users more than no card users, they stop to use the cards, and log in 2 times?
[15:23:37] *** cwebber has quit IRC
[15:24:59] <CosmicDJ> if they "left" the smartcard in there for 2 weeks, you could probably kill a session in-use

[17:02:04] <kjetilho> CosmicDJ: well, see, it's very bursty. so the time taken for smaller files can get hidden

[17:02:41] <kjetilho> tsoome: I haven't really looked at read performance yet
[17:03:21] <tsoome> dont expect great write perfomance with raid5/raid6 with 12 disks in group:D
[17:03:22] <kjetilho> I'm supposed to migrate 10 TB to this system. with 10 MB/s that will take weeks
[17:03:45] <kjetilho> tsoome: original setup was two raidz1 with six disks each
[17:04:00] <tsoome> and i suppose, it was a bit better:D
[17:04:06] <kjetilho> yes -- 14 MB/s...
[17:04:42] <tsoome> ayee
[17:04:46] <kjetilho> seriously, I'm expecting at least 200 MB/s for such a simple benchmark
[17:05:25] <kjetilho> (since each spindle can handle 100 MB/s linear writes consistently)
[17:05:54] <CosmicDJ> what's your benchmark?
[17:06:03] <kjetilho> dd if=/dev/zero
[17:06:19] <kjetilho> although I see the same lousy performance when rsync-ing 10 GB files
[17:06:23] <tsoome> 12 disks in group means to write down a block, you read up all blocks from those disks, do xor , change the block, xor and write change
[17:06:35] <kjetilho> these are empty disks
[17:06:40] <kjetilho> no need to read anything
[17:06:48] <tsoome> also keep in mind the xor is binary operator
[17:07:23] <tsoome> read up what is raid 5 and what is raid 6 and how they operate
[17:07:43] <gnb_> getting 156MB/sec on a 12-disk raidz2 here.. using dd :)
[17:07:55] <kjetilho> I have a different system where I get 396 MB/s
[17:07:57] <tsoome> write down single 128k data block and monitor it with iostat
[17:08:45] <tsoome> you have full disks in that raid i hope
[17:08:59] <kjetilho> yes
[17:09:15] <kjetilho> the other system is x4140 (AMD)
[17:09:32] <CosmicDJ> is your firmware/bios up2date?
[17:09:37] <tsoome> so its the same machine with different cpu
[17:10:00] <trichobezoar> Not being full disks seems like a good reason for the horrible performance. Because then write cache would bet urned off
[17:10:34] <tsoome> also compare /etc/system ...
[17:10:37] <trichobezoar> I think a zpool status may be in order
[17:10:45] <kjetilho> trichobezoar: well, the write cache on each disk is turned off. but there's write cache on the "RAID" controller

[17:19:12] <joshcarter> huh, prod/bin and bin each have tools, some overlapping, some not.
[17:19:14] <joshcarter> lovely.
[17:19:14] <tsoome> is the file really missing?

[17:19:49] <tsoome> welllllll.... you probably need to learn what is symlink?
[17:20:06] <joshcarter> tsoome: yea no shit I know what a symlink is
[17:20:11] <tsoome> ;)
[17:20:21] <joshcarter> maybe the tools and the makefiles should agree on where to put stuff?
[17:20:40] <jkimball4> when is 110 due?
[17:21:22] <tsoome> you used tarball and solaris tar?
[17:21:36] <seanmcg> based on the bi-weekly cycle SXCE 110 should be out next week I think.
[17:21:47] *** brett_ has left #opensolaris
[17:22:03] <joshcarter> I'm using hg sources, the SS12 that has the opensolaris build patches applied, and matching onbld.
[17:22:22] *** cidco has joined #opensolaris
[17:22:54] <cidco> Question, I hnave 4 drives I want to install OpenSolaris with ZFS and have one giant pool that is booted off and used for storage. Can I do this?
[17:23:05] *** dunc_ has quit IRC
[17:23:20] <lewellyn> seanmcg: um. i think sxce is due tomorrow
[17:23:33] <CosmicDJ> cidco: nope

[17:23:46] <lewellyn> being 2 weeks since the last one
[17:23:49] <CosmicDJ> cidco: you can only boot from a single disk or a 2-disk mirror
[17:24:13] <cidco> CosmicDJ , thats what i feared. Ok Ill just make a 2 pools
[17:24:21] <e^ipi> CosmicDJ: s/2/n+1/
[17:24:31] <cidco> CosmicDJ will that work ?
[17:24:37] <e^ipi> for all N in N
[17:25:10] *** tombhadAC has joined #opensolaris
[17:25:15] <kjetilho> hmm, after "pkg image-update" I get slightly better performance. like 47 MB/s (sometimes 110 MB/s)
[17:25:17] <CosmicDJ> e^ipi: hm... ok then this 2 disk limitation was in SVM
[17:26:31] <cidco> CosmicDJ So I can do the normal install and it will setup ZFS pool automaticaly and after system is setup add the second drive to the mirror?
[17:26:38] <cidco> or can it be specified durring setup ?
[17:26:40] <kjetilho> it's still 3 seconds of write activity, then 4 seconds of idleness (according to zpool iostat -v pool 1)
[17:27:28] <e^ipi> cidco: you can do that ( the first one )
[17:27:43] <cidco> Thanks!
[17:27:51] <kjetilho> actually, more like 2 seconds activity, then 6 seconds sleep.
[17:27:54] <e^ipi> http://malsserver.blogspot.com/2008/08/mirroring-resolved-correct-way.html
[17:27:59] <e^ipi> do that.
[17:28:05] <e^ipi> that makes your mirror bootable
[17:30:31] <seanmcg> lewellyn, ah ok..

[17:51:20] <inaddy> or is using and /usr/local/ or other lib
[17:51:26] <inaddy> like.. have u compiled openssl ?

[20:29:34] <sactodav1> <mib_et4fd0> you should look to see that the repository says pkg.opensolaris.org
[20:30:27] <mib_et4fd0> pkg authority says that.

[21:04:07] <jbit> ugh, i just did something stupid, i ran crle -l without /lib:/usr/lib in the path, now i cant run it again to set it back
[21:04:14] <jbit> anybody any clues how to fix this without rebooting?
[21:06:12] <jbk> why are you using crle in the first place
[21:06:15] <e^ipi> congrats, you found out why everyone says "don't fuck with crle"
[21:06:33] <jbk> link properly or use elfedit :)
[21:06:58] <jbit> jbk: well i have my reasons ;P
[21:07:10] <jbit> e^ipi: and yes, i know ;P
[21:07:29] <jbit> actually it seems i need a way to become root without shared libraries
[21:07:34] <jbk> generally use of LD_LIBRARY_PATH or crle shoudl be considered a bug
[21:07:35] <jbit> su.static doesnt seem to actually be static
[21:07:52] <jbk> jbit: what distro?
[21:08:02] <jbit> jbk: if that was hte biggest bug in this software id be happy
[21:08:07] <jbit> jbk: opensolaris dev
[21:08:30] <CosmicDJ> there are no static bins anymore in solaris...
[21:08:41] *** Rocket2DMn has joined #opensolaris
[21:08:57] <e^ipi> jbit: nothing in the system is static linked
[21:08:57] <jbk> you could try to boot to a previous BE, mount the current one, and fix the config file in /var whose name escapes me
[21:09:11] <jbit> jbk: yeah i know how to do that ;P
[21:09:18] <jbit> but not rebooting would be nice
[21:09:21] <jbit> [jbit@miku]~$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:/usr/lib su
[21:09:21] <jbit> ld.so.1: su: fatal: libc.so.1: open failed: No such file or directory
[21:09:28] <jbit> i was hoping that might work, but aparently not
[21:09:31] <flyingparchment> su is setuid, it ignores LD_LIBRARY_PATH
[21:09:42] <jbit> ah
[21:09:51] *** Topdeck_ has quit IRC
[21:09:52] <jbit> guess reboot it is then....
[21:09:54] <jbk> apparently you also changed the secure path?
[21:09:55] *** wbkang1 has quit IRC
[21:10:01] <jbit> nope secure path is default
[21:10:25] <flyingparchment> too bad you're not running a system old enough to have the LD_AUDIT vulnerability ;)
[21:11:33] <jbit> its annoying because crle runs, but im not root so its useless

[21:11:48] *** [JT] has quit IRC
[21:11:53] <flyingparchment> didn't you think leaving a root shell open while you tested it was a good idea?

[21:12:32] <jbit> and yes i'm aware how many mistakes i made, just curious if anybody had a solution
[21:12:37] <jbit> ;P
[21:12:45] <CosmicDJ> sure, never run crle again ;)
[21:12:53] <jbit> CosmicDJ: hehe

[21:16:11] <flyingparchment> (no one would buy a server without that, right?)
[21:16:18] <jbit> well its not colocated
[21:16:43] <jbit> its in the building but just in a different room, which i have a feeling is locked
[21:17:02] <geppy> I have a small root drive and a large RAIDZ for my user data. Updating and installing new packages requires lots of space. How much of the base system can I move over to the RAIDZ? My google searches indicate that putting /usr on a RAIDZ is not possible, and my manual testing agrees.

[21:17:59] <syd`> sxce 110 out? Great :)
[21:18:07] <flyingparchment> jbit: btw, the correct solution to the problem you're trying to solve with crle, is you should build your programs with -R/what/ever/lib
[21:18:08] * syd` looking for the changelog
[21:18:14] <jbit> flyingparchment: i know
[21:18:35] <jbit> but its a suite of programs which checksum themselves so i cant use elfedit
[21:18:38] <jbit> and i dont have source access
[21:18:49] <jbit> and i dont really want to h4x0r them so the checksum doesnt work
[21:18:59] <jbk> where are the checksums stored?
[21:19:05] <jbit> so crle seemed like the best solution until i can slap somebody to rebuild
[21:19:22] <jbit> jbk: as i said, i didnt have the drive to go looking

[21:29:29] *** yippi has joined #opensolaris
[21:29:29] <flyingparchment> what are you using, like a 4GB root disk?
[21:29:57] <geppy> 10GB partition, the installer said the install would be 2.6GB and that 8GB was recommended.
[21:30:17] <geppy> I used 10GB and updated. COW filesystem, wouldnt boot.
[21:31:22] <gnut> will N-Trig's touch screen work with sxce?
[21:31:31] <geppy> However, I have 4.1TB in my RAIDZ array. Would be nice if non-essential system files could reside there.

[22:56:25] <gnut> will ibm destroy solaris?
[22:56:44] <lewellyn> gnut: because there's no sun tech that would be all that interesting to ibm?
[22:56:56] *** geppy has left #opensolaris
[22:57:24] <gnut> they say sun is soliciting buyers. who would sun consider a good buyer?
[22:57:36] <lewellyn> you can surely expect solaris to get the same treatment os/2 and pc-dos got for their last years
[22:57:40] <gnut> who would want sun's tech besides sun themselves?
[22:57:45] <joshcarter> I'm pretty sure the IBM offer is a lot more than rumor at this point.
[22:57:53] <sickness> lewellyn: :(
[22:58:07] <lewellyn> who says sun isn't trying to just sell off the pieces that don't fit into their long-term strategy any longer?
[22:58:16] <sickness> I just hope they won't kill solaris/opensolaris :'
[22:58:19] <tsoome> gnut without sun linux people have nowhere to steal ideas from....
[22:58:28] <gnut> like the hardware? and keep the software/services?
[22:58:33] <lewellyn> tsoome: aix!
[22:58:41] <lewellyn> gnut: they don't need the hardware
[22:58:42] <tsoome> yeah...
[22:58:53] *** fftb has quit IRC
[22:58:56] <gnut> tsoome: that's true. unfortunately, linux people may not realize that
[22:59:02] <joshcarter> IBM would be crazy to outright kill solaris, however they may GPL it and start moving functionality (ZFS, etc) into Linux.
[22:59:03] <tsoome> they do
[22:59:43] <tsoome> joshcarter: thats called killing.
[22:59:44] <joshcarter> just my opinion, of course.
[22:59:54] *** GNUix has quit IRC
[23:00:00] <joshcarter> no, that's not killing, that's scavenging. ;)
[23:00:17] <gnut> the thing about solaris besides the tech, is like freebsd, it's thought out, instead of being a hodge podge of hackers
[23:00:56] <joshcarter> gnut: I would agree with that.
[23:01:02] <gnut> if ibm buys sun, scavenges, will they still pay for continued solaris development?
[23:01:06] <joshcarter> I think anyone that's monkeyed with the linux codebase would agree.
[23:01:38] <lewellyn> not to sound like a broken reord, but ibm has equivs of all the "interesting" sun tech, they aren't going to buy sun to kill it as they target different markets and don't really compete, the shareholders will have a fit if they spend at least half their on-hand liquidity for something of questionable value while potentially incurring debt, and ibm is about in the same financial boat as sun; they're just bigger and it's harder to see.
[23:02:02] <joshcarter> however, anyone that's fought with Solaris build and packaging might welcome the opportunity to use linux. (Coming from someone fighting with building opensolaris right now.)

[23:03:03] <joshcarter> codestr0m: you looking for a job?
[23:03:07] <codestr0m> you just posted on the list about broken SSX? I've seen that thread pop up a few times
[23:03:08] <lewellyn> but name ONE tech of sun's that would interest ibm shareholders. i dare you :)

[23:04:52] *** LordIllpalazo has quit IRC
[23:04:59] <gretel> if ibm buys sun, i don't think this will change anything regarding the license of solaris or opensolaris
[23:05:13] <lewellyn> gretel: they can't retroactively change it
[23:05:14] <gretel> there is no opensource os/2 for good reason
[23:05:26] *** koan has quit IRC
[23:05:26] <lewellyn> gretel: um. yeah. like all the non-ibm code

[23:05:57] <gretel> funny to write a world like exactly wrong
[23:06:08] <CIA-33> Venugopal Iyer <Venu.Iyer at Sun dot COM>: 6794884 mac_rx_deliver() should use MCIS_STRIP_DISABLE instead of TAG_DISABLE
[23:06:08] *** kleppari has joined #opensolaris
[23:06:08] <lewellyn> i doubt ibm even knows what's theirs anymore in os/2
[23:06:30] *** asarch has joined #opensolaris
[23:07:21] <jbk> doesn't IBM have around 36 billion in debt of customer financing?
[23:07:40] <gretel> so they shall give as the sources os/2
[23:07:48] <gretel> us, even, doh
[23:07:49] <jbk> that type of debt is dragging GE down right now
[23:08:03] <flyingparchment> i wonder if IBM even has the OS/2 source anymore
[23:08:09] <jbk> i can't imagine that IBM somehow is smarter about who it finances
[23:08:16] *** lesterc has joined #opensolaris
[23:08:51] *** lesterc has quit IRC
[23:08:51] <jbk> which to me suggests IBM's going to have it's own issues here as time goes on
[23:09:01] <jbk> just a personal opinion

[23:10:04] *** blaxx_ has quit IRC
[23:10:12] *** koan has quit IRC
[23:10:20] <gretel> open source of os/2 is like saving nortel

[23:10:34] *** koan has joined #opensolaris
[23:10:37] <gkl> hello
[23:11:00] <gkl> this is a bit belated, but I use my sunpci quite often
[23:11:06] <gretel> "the chinese might find a backdoor in the voip stack"
[23:11:07] <LouisJB> seems to me there's much more innovation and openness with Sun than IBM, what do they even do these days exactly?
[23:11:31] <gkl> ibm innovates quite a lot
[23:11:32] <gretel> LouisJB: well, eclipse
[23:12:00] <LouisJB> eclipse was innovative, not really any more, it's quite slow moving really
[23:12:12] <LouisJB> maybe several years ago
[23:12:37] <gkl> there's a lot more to ibm than making computers
[23:13:22] <LouisJB> they have an EE platform and they sell a lot of services, but what do they really innovate these days exactly?
[23:13:40] <gkl> they do a ton of research in basic science (my field)
[23:13:52] <gkl> stuff that will appear in hardware products ten years down the road
[23:14:04] <CosmicDJ> IIRC zfs's arc is (indirectly) from IBM research
[23:14:09] <seanmcg> ibm are still the larest 'producer' of patents.

[23:16:59] <Kvsh-> hey that reminds me, i heard when using webdav you can't copy+paste direcotories? is that true? you can only copy files and create dirs and then copy files into it?
[23:17:00] <LouisJB> true, and it seems they innovate a lot in the hardware world, just wondering what they innovate in the software world too
[23:19:59] <gkl> I think ibm's software innovations are rather vacuous
[23:20:02] *** asarch has quit IRC
[23:20:11] <gkl> in that I am not sure I know of any
[23:20:17] <LouisJB> maybe from that perspective they'd be a good compliment, but part of me thinks it can't be a good thing for Sun's innovative products or Open software in general

[23:48:55] *** lesterc has joined #opensolaris
[23:49:41] <lewellyn> i seem to recall that before they stopped official support of os/2, an ecs license entitled you to software choice.
