[00:00:00] <lewellyn> alanc: ah that. yes.
[00:00:01] <alanc> the fixes for 134 were actually dealing with the tooltalk & cmsd services we put into IPS packages after 2009.06
[00:00:09] <lewellyn> oh awesome
[00:00:13] <alanc> fleyta: /usr/cde: no such file or directory
[00:00:52] <richlowe> lewellyn: don't encourage him.
[00:00:59] <richlowe> lewellyn: tooltalk (sadly) has its useful consumers.
[00:01:26] <alanc> specifically, fixing the SMF manifests to have the secure by default settings actually on by default, instead of assuming a postinstall script would clean them up with 'netservices limited', since clearly postinstall wasn't happening in IPS
[00:02:09] <lewellyn> richlowe: i pestered to get the dt/tt utilities into indiana. :)
[00:02:35] <lewellyn> the "oh awesome" wasn't sarcastic in the least
[00:03:18] <alanc> oh yeah, and the 3rd cde bug fix in 134a was to make richlowe stop complaining
[00:03:43] * lewellyn is interested in seeing that patch ;)
[00:04:00] <alanc> closed source 8-P
[00:04:09] *** fleyta has quit IRC
[00:04:28] <richlowe> alanc: that is the greatest fix ever, there's probably a year or more of frustration in that.
[00:04:43] <alanc> fixed a bug in libtt that was affecting people that use the old Sun Workshop filemerge gui
[00:04:46] *** stewart has joined #opensolaris
[00:04:54] <richlowe> probably any consumer of tooltalk
[00:05:27] <alanc> probably, but that's the most commonly used tooltalk consumer I know of these days
[00:05:37] <alanc> well, that and people using the old studio builds of xemacs

[00:37:00] <ttys0> lewellyn: LOL
[00:38:49] *** radsy_ has joined #opensolaris
[00:39:02] <Tonnerre> Hm, if I install the 2009.06 OpenSolaris release, will I get a stable system with security updates?
[00:39:05] *** Fullmoon has quit IRC
[00:39:20] <bdha> Tonnerre: It'll be stable-ish, but security updates require a support contract.
[00:39:30] <Tonnerre> bdha, for OpenSolaris?
[00:39:34] <bdha> Yes.
[00:39:38] <Tonnerre> Hm ok
[00:40:26] <Tonnerre> So I guess since I'm a private user it's getting time to leave the Solaris field after more than 20 years :/
[00:40:36] *** LaCap has quit IRC
[00:40:47] <deet> yeah, probably a good time to give up your entire career
[00:40:48] <bdha> Tonnerre: You can always follow /dev.
[00:41:05] <bdha> If a given release is unstable, you can just roll back to the previous one.
[00:41:08] <bdha> (Boot Environments)++
[00:41:18] *** sndcrb has quit IRC
[00:41:31] <Tonnerre> deet, my current career job-wise evolves around a totally different area of software

[00:42:06] *** eldee has joined #opensolaris
[00:42:10] *** radsy has quit IRC
[00:43:19] <nikolam> bdha, yup but that is not quite a viable solution for any normal use. i followed it for almosta year and i know it pretty much.
[00:43:34] <nikolam> But BE`s are life saver, thats for sure
[00:44:19] <bdha> Just throwing out the options. :)
[00:44:23] <Tonnerre> bdha, for toying around that's probably sufficient but it's not what I'd like to have on my private production servers
[00:44:25] <bdha> I run OS X workstations and manage Solaris 10 servers.
[00:45:15] <nikolam> Tonnerre, i guess if private server is truely private and only for known internal user, that might be ok.
[00:45:42] <nikolam> s10 does not count in this
[00:46:08] *** Spencer_tt has quit IRC
[00:46:15] <Tonnerre> nikolam, well, my current setup uses zones for separation of services like mail, configuration management, file serving, web serving etc
[00:46:35] *** Spencer_tt has joined #opensolaris
[00:46:37] <Tonnerre> nikolam, so it runs outside-facing services, and up to now I had a security update feed from Sun
[00:46:44] * ttys0 hearts zones
[00:47:04] <lewellyn> Tonnerre: up till about 2.5 months ago, if you mean solaris
[00:47:09] <nikolam> Tonnerre, buy support for updates. nothing else will hel you, but using alternate opensolaris distribution etc.
[00:47:13] <Tonnerre> lewellyn, precisely
[00:47:40] <Tonnerre> nikolam, I'm a private user, not a company; I don't have a budget
[00:47:42] <CosmicDJ> so oracle really stopped providing free security/driver updates for solaris?
[00:47:47] *** _madmax__ has quit IRC
[00:47:59] <nikolam> Tonnerre, then face it. I understand you exactly.
[00:48:12] <ttys0> Tonnerre: then /dev might work well for you
[00:48:20] <bdha> CosmicDJ: OpenSolaris never had free security updates.
[00:48:27] <bdha> CosmicDJ: Solaris's free security updates got pulled a few months ago.
[00:48:30] <nikolam> They wont give you updates for stable. Use /dev or .. whatever.
[00:48:54] <bdha> CosmicDJ: They're also munging hardware/firmware updates to require hardware contracts.
[00:49:24] <bdha> In short, Oracle is doing what it does very well: Make money.
[00:49:25] <Tonnerre> bdha, yah, let's see how long I can afford to continue running Sun hardware
[00:49:40] <nikolam> Tonnerre, there is also more then one opensolaris distribution, you know
[00:49:41] <bdha> Though some stuff is just ridiculous... like $90 for the MS Office ODF plugin, min license: 900 users.
[00:49:56] <bdha> Tonnerre: Yeah, that's our worry too. Thankfully all on x86 hardware, so we can jump if needed.
[00:50:01] <CosmicDJ> http://www.c0t0d0s0.org/archives/6514-About-this-ODF-for-MS-Office-discussion.html
[00:50:43] <Meths> min license 100 users $9000.
[00:50:45] <Tonnerre> It really makes me sad after growing up on Solaris
[00:50:48] <nikolam> well, they can always use OpenOffice.org for free..
[00:50:53] <bdha> CosmicDJ: Oh, I don't care. I just think it's stupid.
[00:51:09] <bdha> Tonnerre: I moved our Linux infra to Solaris 10 three years ago. It's been great.
[00:51:15] <bdha> My solution is to move to a company with a bigger budget. :)
[00:51:16] *** LaCap has joined #opensolaris
[00:51:19] *** paddy has quit IRC
[00:51:22] <nikolam> well, let them pay, Ms office users are there to pay, anyway
[00:52:02] <Tonnerre> bdha, I did that ;)
[00:52:15] <nikolam> maybe you can continuo to use it, just.. pay for minimal support and get updates, thats it.
[00:53:07] <ttys0> bdha: that doesn't always translate very well
[00:53:12] *** LaCap has quit IRC
[00:53:31] <bdha> ttys0: ?
[00:54:00] <ttys0> bdha: bigger company with bigger budget can end up being more contrary than a smaller company with barely a budget
[00:54:04] <CosmicDJ> "My solution is to move to a company with a bigger budget. :)" <- IBM? ;-)
[00:54:15] *** InTheWings has quit IRC
[00:54:16] <nikolam> One might argue osol is actually rolling release .
[00:54:31] <ttys0> nikolam: that's how I've viewed it for a long time
[03:15:29] *** echelog has joined #opensolaris
[03:16:15] <devians[w]> whats the point of the vnic having an ip then?
[03:16:40] <ttys0> dunno, you're the one that gave it one .... when I run virtualbox in a zone, I dedicate a vnic to it, but that vnic isn't plumbed
[03:18:11] <devians[w]> urgh. im really just having trouble getting a definitive answer on how to use vnics with vbox
[03:18:38] <ttys0> there probably isn't such a thing .... there's more than one approach, and you just pick the one that works best for you
[03:19:18] <LadySerena> I do funky things with VBox on my Mac.
[03:19:29] <ttys0> I tend to make vnics to be used with virtualbox, leave the vnic unplumbed, and then make sure the briged vbox nic has the same MAC as the vnic
[03:19:31] *** Gman has joined #opensolaris
[03:19:31] *** ChanServ sets mode: +o Gman
[03:19:46] <ttys0> is that the best approach? dunno ... it works well for me
[03:19:57] <devians[w]> i wouldnt be bothering, but vbox cant bind more than one machine to a nic.
[03:20:11] <devians[w]> ttys0 imo, the best approach is the one that works
[03:20:51] <ttys0> then I think you've found it ... make vnics and bridge your vbox nics through them
[03:21:32] <ttys0> I also like that approach since it works out well when the vbox VMs are shoved into zones
[03:24:32] <devians[w]> im not really familiar with zones. whats the advantage of them with vms?
[03:26:01] <ttys0> it's operating system level virtualization, so there's almost no overhead, and they're ZFS aware (though that's probably a misnomer ... I can't think of a better short way to describe it at the moment)
[03:26:07] *** Triskelios has joined #opensolaris
[03:26:55] <ttys0> if you're a FreeBSDer, they're like chrooted jails with extras, if you're a Linuxer, they're like vserver VMs, but they actually work
[03:28:16] <devians[w]> yeah that was all spanish to me. im still not aware why i would want to have a vm in a zone. isnt a zone just a virtual instance of the os or something?
[03:28:59] <ttys0> you can apply resource control to a zone, which is something you can't do to a virtualbox VM by itself
[03:29:18] <devians[w]> resource control, as in mem/cpu?
[03:29:42] <ttys0> yep

[03:32:29] *** fleers has joined #opensolaris
[03:34:04] <devians[w]> hey ttys0, vbox needs the mac addresses to match doesnt it? ie the vnic mac and the vm nic mac? if my vnic is unplumbed, how do i do this?
[03:34:04] <ttys0> about as exciting as watching granny try to eat a taco without her dentures in

[04:24:43] <submesa> Hi there! Can anyone point me towards an equivalent to "gstat" on FreeBSD, where i can see physical disk activity, bandwidth, etc. Updates per second. Any suggestions here?
[04:24:57] <submesa> using OpenSolaris 2009.06
[04:25:02] <alanc> Executive Summary: gdamore posted from his personal account his opinion that open development hadn't proven itself economically, so slashdot posts "Oracle demands open source prove it's value or its going to kill it"

[04:33:26] <lewellyn> muthu: can you elaborate?

[06:02:56] <jthunder> I think I found the problem now: as soon as the syslogd process gets a request from another host "net_poll(14): received message from 192.168.1.1.2.2"
[06:03:03] <jthunder> then it segfaults
[06:03:14] <Andys^> lolwtf

[06:13:07] <cmecca> :P
[06:13:12] <cmecca> any ideas on an easy fix?
[06:13:19] <JonathanYC> Hi again :D
[06:13:26] <JonathanYC> Does anyone know how to get spellcheck working for openoffice?
[06:13:34] <JonathanYC> I remember on linux I had to install myspell, or something like that.
[06:14:43] <bdha> cmecca: Boot the LiveCD and see if there's an active partition on the disk.
[06:14:49] * bdha guessing, vaguely recalls having that problem.

[06:23:46] <JonathanYC> Thanks Triskelios :D
[06:24:59] <JonathanYC> Heh
[06:25:09] <JonathanYC> I added this printer, and it even successfully connect
[06:25:15] <JonathanYC> but it does not appear in Open Office's print dialog.
[06:25:17] <JonathanYC> Do you know why?
[06:26:57] <jmcp> for the same reason that my stomach hurts?
[06:27:18] *** JonathanYC has quit IRC
[06:27:28] <Triskelios> JonathanYC: you may have to restart oo.o
[06:28:31] <Triskelios> jthunder: seems to be a red herring; "This routine will convert a TCP/IP internal format address into a "universal" format address. In our case it prints out the decimal dot equivalent. h1.h2.h3.h4.p1.p2 where h1-h4 are the host address and p1-p2 are the port number."
[06:28:55] <jthunder> hm
[06:29:20] <jthunder> well it is definitely related to the remote logging, cause it stays running until a remote host sends some data
[06:30:29] <Triskelios> the crash is in cvthname, so that's certainly true
[06:33:33] *** JonathanYC has joined #opensolaris
[06:33:46] <JonathanYC> Hello :D
[06:34:02] <JonathanYC> I have tried to set up my Officejet 6300 for Open Solaris, but I get the following two issues.
[06:34:08] <JonathanYC> 1) The printer is not available for Open Office
[06:34:13] <JonathanYC> and 2) The printer cannot print at all
[06:34:22] <JonathanYC> It is a HP Officejet 6300. :(
[06:35:18] <Triskelios> JonathanYC: I hope you didn't just restart the computer... "oo.o" was short for openoffice.org
[06:36:04] <JonathanYC> I didn't just restart my computer :D
[06:36:05] <jthunder> maybe someone can enable remote logging on snv_134 and see if the issue is only isolated to me
[06:36:11] <JonathanYC> Sorry though, what do you mean by "oo.o"
[06:36:22] <JonathanYC> I can even ping the printer D:
[06:36:52] <Triskelios> it's a network printer?
[06:36:56] <JonathanYC> YEp
[06:37:38] <JonathanYC> I have set it up with CUPS on linux before, but I don't know if there is a similar utility on OpenSolaris.
[06:38:41] <Triskelios> CUPS is available as a print system, but the default print system is not CUPS
[06:38:54] <JonathanYC> Ah.
[06:39:07] <sand_man> is anyone else getting sever slowdowns with the package manager in snv_134?
[06:39:10] <JonathanYC> Is it possible to configure my printer for CUPS then carry it over to the default print system?
[06:40:53] <Triskelios> JonathanYC: they're mutually exclusive
[06:41:41] <Triskelios> JonathanYC: if you plugged in the printer with USB, you should get a dialog box with the default print system... that GUI hasn't been converted for CUPS yet
[06:43:25] <Triskelios> print-service -s cups should switch to CUPS (you may have to pkg install it first), at which point you can use the web interface
[06:44:17] <JonathanYC> OK, thanks :D
[06:44:41] <JonathanYC> I assume the package name is cups?
[06:44:51] <JonathanYC> aparently not
[06:44:54] <JonathanYC> apparently(
[06:44:59] <Triskelios> should be now?
[06:45:08] <JonathanYC> I'm trying to pkg install it

[06:50:55] <Triskelios> smrt: explain dev repository
[06:50:55] <smrt> To switch to the /dev repository (OpenSolaris development releases, see the IPS version in /topic): pfexec pkg set-publisher -O http://pkg.opensolaris.org/dev opensolaris.org && pfexec pkg install SUNWipkg && pfexec pkg image-update -v # Then wait.

[06:51:50] <JonathanYC> I'll read them now :O
[06:52:02] <Triskelios> 2009.06 is quite old at this point. if the next stable release wasn't delayed, there wouldn't be much reason to use it

[06:52:24] <JonathanYC> I can find an announcement and a blog post, but not the release notes :(

[07:40:01] <freetown2> eh? update device entries?
[07:40:06] <lewellyn> smrt: explain pty
[07:40:07] <smrt> After updating a system running build 125 or earlier to any later build, you may have trouble opening terminal sessions (local and remote/ssh) because of missing device permission configuration. Edit /etc/minor_perm and run devfsadm to permanently fix this. See http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=12380 for details.

[10:33:18] <m4rzito> Can i use opensolaris at env production?. I get the bugfixes or I need to wait allways 6month
[10:34:08] <RoyK> hi all. I have this osol test system, SuperMicro X7SBU motherboard, 8x2TB disk and 4GB RAM, but osol only sees 2GB. BIOS reports 4GB, and prtdiag sees both memory modules, but prtconf only reports 2GB memory. Any ideas?

[11:07:08] <tsoome> i havent heard they have fixed it yet.
[11:07:16] <m4rzito> CosmicDJ
[11:07:33] <m4rzito> But I don't want to pay?, I cannot get security updates?
[11:07:51] <tsoome> ude /dev

[11:08:05] <tsoome> or use source and build yourself

[11:11:05] <CosmicDJ> m4rzito: well they have to make some money...
[11:13:34] <m4rzito> where I find a free solaris alternative option?
[11:14:54] <houst0n> m4rzito: oracle isn't interested in giving you anything for free, you could try an alternative distro though, such as belenix
[11:15:21] <CosmicDJ> or nexenta
[11:15:34] <houst0n> nexenta is pretty useless
[11:15:34] <m4rzito> but Can I do the same?, zones, live upgrade?
[11:15:53] <houst0n> m4rzito: Yep
[11:16:08] <houst0n> I wouldn't use either of those on a production machine, though
[11:16:32] <m4rzito> yes..
[11:16:37] <houst0n> Really your options there are S10 or redhat w/ openvz and so on
[11:16:38] <m4rzito> I try FreeBSD better..
[11:17:09] <houst0n> Suit yourself, FreeBSD is kind of useless
[11:17:16] <houst0n> s/useless/pointless/
[11:17:23] <CosmicDJ> yeah yeah, everything is useless but solaris
[11:17:31] <houst0n> Not true
[11:17:38] <m4rzito> useless why?
[11:17:43] <m4rzito> I've zfs, jails, etc
[11:17:49] <m4rzito> free
[11:17:54] <m4rzito> and very stable
[11:18:07] <houst0n> m4rzito: Because no one uses it, you need to compile your own shit for it, you can't get a support contract for it, etc
[11:18:21] <houst0n> I'm not talking about little home webservers here :P - it may be great for that
[11:18:30] <m4rzito> I don't want support contract
[11:18:41] <m4rzito> this is for my personal server
[11:18:44] <m4rzito> not a company
[11:18:53] <houst0n> Ah then who cares?
[11:18:53] <m4rzito> I don't pay for a support or licenses
[11:18:57] <houst0n> Go with whatever

[11:19:15] <Andys^> m4rzito: freebsd's memory management is broken (with respect to ZFS ARC vs system buffer cache)
[11:19:32] <houst0n> Morning Andys^ mate, how are ya?
[11:19:45] <Andys^> hello :)
[11:20:14] <Andys^> m4rzito: also freebsd jails are not really up to scratch, too many missing features. you can't properly limit CPU/RAM for jails. SYSV shared memory is shared amongst all jails (!!)
[11:20:52] <m4rzito> I like solaris, but I cannot pay for
[11:20:56] <|woody|> m4rzito just use the opensolaris dev repo
[11:21:21] <m4rzito> but for example if tomorrow publish a security bug, I need to wait 6month to update ?
[11:21:22] *** Phenox_ has joined #opensolaris
[11:21:23] <m4rzito> I don't understand this
[11:21:25] <houst0n> m4rzito: The closest thing to zones you can get outside of solaris is imo openvz
[11:21:52] <m4rzito> I prefeer xen
[11:22:03] <|woody|> m4rzito no /dev is updated every 2-3 weeks
[11:22:05] <houst0n> i said zones, not full hypervisor
[11:22:14] <|woody|> in normal cases :)
[11:22:16] <m4rzito> but woody I need to compile all?
[11:22:20] <|woody|> no
[11:22:35] <m4rzito> for example If i've a kernel bug?
[11:22:38] <|AbsyntH|> virtserver olso si like zone
[11:23:19] <|woody|> you wait for 2 weeks and pkg image-update done
[11:23:33] <|woody|> if the bug was fixed :)
[11:23:37] <m4rzito> 2 weeks.. many time
[11:23:55] <|AbsyntH|> http://linux-vserver.org/Welcome_to_Linux-VServer.org <=this
[11:24:05] <m4rzito> I use some times vserver
[11:24:15] <m4rzito> but I don't like gnu/linux ..
[11:24:23] <|woody|> well if you want it fixed tomorrow buy hyper extrem support
[11:24:40] <|woody|> thats how it works
[11:24:46] <m4rzito> what time I need to wait at solaris?
[11:25:03] <|woody|> depends on the bug
[11:25:10] *** darki has joined #opensolaris
[11:25:36] <|woody|> support might give you a interim fix or a workaround or whatever until it is fixed
[11:25:44] <|AbsyntH|> m4rzito you can use fbsd's jails if you don't like linux project
[11:26:01] <m4rzito> but memory shared..
[11:26:01] <|woody|> might still take a while because it needs to be tested etc
[11:26:15] *** xtrondo has quit IRC
[11:26:52] <|woody|> solaris is an enterprise OS. So they make sure the patch doesn't break anything else
[11:27:21] <m4rzito> http://wiki.freebsd.org/Jails
[11:27:25] <m4rzito> Andys^
[11:27:30] <m4rzito> memory and cpu are fine not?
[11:28:28] *** heldchen has joined #opensolaris
[11:30:12] <pettson> What is the gain of being slow with producing security patches?
[11:30:35] <tsoome> slow itself is not any gain
[11:30:53] <tsoome> slow is an side effect only
[11:32:13] <pettson> So the "wait two weeks", is that maximum two weeks, or is it a forced and fictive time that it takes every time?
[11:32:53] <tsoome> well, /dev is not machanism to produce security patches
[11:34:03] <|woody|> well the dev binary is normaly updated every two week. Which doesn't meen the bug was fixed
[11:34:29] <|woody|> If it takes longer to fix it then you have to wait until it is fixed

[11:38:49] *** tg has quit IRC
[11:38:56] <tsoome> what is security server?
[11:38:58] <Spencer_tt> pettson: imagine yourself as a toyota driver and you probably won't to accept quick fixes for braking issues, sun needs to take it's time to make & test updated fixes - speed is kinda pointless
[11:39:08] <m4rzito> personal files, blog, mail
[11:39:23] <Spencer_tt> something like OpenBSD?
[11:39:49] <tsoome> tbh, that kind of "security" server does not depend on os vendor patches at all.
[11:40:33] <m4rzito> yes, I know, hardening etc
[11:40:41] <tsoome> its most likely your blog engine which will get security related hits
[11:40:45] <m4rzito> but hardening without OS patchs..
[11:40:49] *** dajune has joined #opensolaris

[11:47:44] <tsoome> well, the real question is, who are users of that app called "less". if there are no local users, it does not really matter if you dont apply update in years;)

[12:10:10] <Spencer_tt> good question
[12:10:27] *** tosh has joined #opensolaris
[12:10:29] <Andys^> m4rzito: well, the CPU/ram limits are flakey. there's no official patch. if you want to upgrade the OS you have to port the patches to the new version
[12:10:58] <Andys^> m4rzito: the memory patches aren't very sophisticated. EG, you start apache in a jail with 10 processes, it think its using 10 times the amount of memory its actually using (due to shared memory)
[12:11:28] <Andys^> Separated SysV IPC still isn't done... there's patches for freebsd 6.x only
[12:11:53] <m4rzito> and opensolaris have it?
[12:11:54] <Andys^> really there's alot of work that needs to be done to fix jails.. they're still somewhat useful at present time for doing things like running BIND/named in a jail
[12:13:00] <Andys^> right
[12:14:26] *** tosh has quit IRC
[12:14:39] <m4rzito> and for example, If I install nginx, and I want to harden it... how I can limit files, sockets, nginx uses?
[12:14:43] <m4rzito> similar to SELinux?
[12:15:34] <Andys^> i believe so

[12:16:00] <m4rzito> why?

[15:27:59] <kmays> You could disable it..then reenable it..recheck configuration and if it'll see anything local to it and basic functionality is working.

[16:24:44] <nikolam> hm, is there a way to se per-file compression ratio if files are compressed inside zfs filesystem
[16:26:11] <jamesd2> nikolam, no, its per filesystem, zfs tries to compress but unless it passes a threshold, i think its 15%, zfs just writes the non compressed data
[16:26:25] *** twilling has quit IRC
[16:28:51] <Stric> nikolam: you can compare 'ls -l' with 'du'.. size difference can be either compression or sparse/hole files..
[16:29:07] <Stric> but if you know it's not a sparse file, then you can get compress ratio by dividing those two
[16:29:28] <nikolam> aha.. I see. so it is actually inside zfs and one would need to make a program to analize per-file ratios. much like baobab for directory sizes sizes
[16:29:32] *** tsoome has quit IRC
[16:29:42] <nikolam> aha I see Stric
[16:31:50] <taemun> how can I get a count of the number of files in a dataset?

[16:32:50] <Stric> gnu df -i

[16:36:36] <taemun> ok cheers
[16:36:37] <Stric> and other items
[16:36:51] <taemun> I appear to have 16814785621 inodes free
[16:36:53] <taemun> ... lol
[16:37:16] <Stric> inodes free on zfs is a bogus value, but inodes in use is real
[16:37:23] <taemun> ah
[16:37:23] <taemun> right

[17:49:45] <gdamore> i used the p0 device for such an operation.
[17:50:24] <ErNci> mmm that's what I did, but it didnt seem to write wierd. maybe the mount hasnt updated
[17:50:50] <gdamore> oh, you should not do this with the USB *mounted*
[17:51:00] <gdamore> that would be Bad Voodoo.
[17:51:07] <ErNci> ;)
[17:51:14] <ErNci> yeah learnt this now :D
[17:51:18] <ErNci> remounted it and it's all good
[17:51:34] <ErNci> thanks, just needed reaffirmed p0 was right <3
[17:51:52] <gdamore> i'd unmount, and rewrite, just to make sure that no garbage was written in the middle somewhere when it was previously mounted.

[18:04:23] <sstallion_work> which seemed interesting
[18:04:27] <gdamore> if the PHY is *up*, its about 1 Hz. If the PHY is down, its about 4 Hz. If the phy is hosed, it might spin.
[18:04:40] <sstallion_work> gotcha
[18:04:41] <gdamore> is it a 100 Mbps PHY?
[18:04:44] *** datadigger has quit IRC
[18:04:44] <sstallion_work> yup
[18:04:49] <gdamore> then it *is* 100BASE-X

[18:06:10] <sstallion_work> ahh, okay
[18:06:17] <sstallion_work> I'll fire it up later on this evening if I have a chance
[18:06:18] <gdamore> if that gets called a lot, then you'll get hammered.
[18:06:29] <gdamore> but otherwise it should not be more than 4 times per second.
[18:06:34] <sstallion_work> the link negotiates just fine - both peers seem happy, I was just a little surprised
[18:06:38] <sstallion_work> gotcha
[18:06:48] <gdamore> once per second if you have good link.
[18:06:57] <sstallion_work> it could be my serial terminal was just backlogged as well - it eventually stopped and the ISR started firing normally
[18:07:14] <gdamore> maybe.
[18:07:28] <sstallion_work> have a second to eyeball the dma bits I threw together?
[18:07:47] <gdamore> also, I should check to make sure that the units for cv_reltimedwait really are hz. if it expects nsec or something, then it might hammer the link.

[18:22:17] <sstallion_work> taemun: if you are asking about support for virtualization in ethernet hardware, I'd be surprised. Ethernet controllers are essentially stateless - all you could really "virtualize" would be by segregating rings or filters or somesuch.
[18:22:46] <taemun> I'm talking about attaching a physical network card directly with a VM guest

[18:37:48] <Laidback_01> nevermind, got it.
[18:38:05] <eviljames> heh xset b off ?
[18:39:12] <Laidback_01> no, just set the terminal beep pref in the xconsole. I'm really much more interested in getting my nvidia card to work. It would seem this is an ati crowd though.... not a single response.

[18:40:56] <causality> did anyone happen to see my question earlier about using opensolaris on a laptop with xp as a virtual machine on a second monitor?
[18:41:01] <Triskelios> ATI cards don't have 3D acceleration in osol, so it's hardly preferred
[18:43:51] <Triskelios> Laidback_01: if you google for your error, it seems to be pretty common
[18:44:45] *** Yu\2 has joined #opensolaris
[18:45:42] <Laidback_01> yeah, I'm doing that... tried a couple of things, but so far no go. I'm sure it won't be long.
[18:46:52] <Triskelios> Laidback_01: might have to update the driver (pkg remove the current one first so it doesn't conflict with the SVR4 package)

[18:49:30] <Laidback_01> WAIT: (E, 0, 0x857d, 0) this is the error that's stopping me. Apparently this is getting to a lot of linux distros, etc, but the nvidia devs are supposed to be unable to recreate, so... they havent' fixed it. sweet...

[18:50:32] <wrapster> guys if i have to disable a service by default how do i do it? I actually want to disable smb/client.
[18:50:45] *** ozux has joined #opensolaris
[18:51:04] <Triskelios> most of the nvnews forum posts about the driver failing predate that version, and there are comments suggesting it is fixed
[18:51:15] <Triskelios> wrapster: svcadm disable smb/client
[18:51:19] <wrapster> i mean i want to recompile onnv-gate with that particular service disabled so that when it boots up i should see this serivce disabled.
[18:51:20] <Laidback_01> Triskelios, yeah, 195.36.15 is yielding same error
[18:53:54] *** Odin- has joined #opensolaris
[18:54:56] <Triskelios> wrapster: it's disabled by default
[18:55:30] <Triskelios> wrapster: if there's another service that isn't, edit the manifest
[18:55:50] <Laidback_01> Triskelios, removing the xorg.conf - still identical error. I'm looking for xorg.conf to be in a different location than what I think it is now...
[18:56:07] *** ewdafa has quit IRC

[18:56:28] <wrapster> Triskelios: could you please tell me what exactly i should be looking for
[18:56:50] <Triskelios> wrapster: not the package manifest, it's an XML file that's part of the contents
[18:57:02] <wrapster> Triskelios: ok
[18:57:29] <wrapster> by default smb/client is offline.. i want it "disabled."
[18:57:54] <wrapster> Triskelios: and any idea where i can find this manifest file?
[18:58:07] <wrapster> Triskelios: within the onnv-gate dir?

[18:59:14] <Triskelios> wrapster: will be listed in the package prototype, along with all the other files
[18:59:26] <wrapster> Triskelios: yep.. just looked at it..
[18:59:42] <stratvox> I have a question about mounting /export/home via nfs in opensolaris.
[19:00:17] <stratvox> We have a nfs share of our home dirs on solaris on sparc.
[19:00:30] <stratvox> We're assessing using opensolaris on the desktop (use ubuntu now).
[19:00:48] <stratvox> I'm trying to get the shared homedirs to mount at boot on the desktop via nfs.
[19:01:01] <CosmicDJ> autofs
[19:01:13] <Triskelios> stratvox: it's better to use autofs for home dirs (regardless of OS)
[19:01:48] <CosmicDJ> and you're not mounting /export/home but /export/home/$user
[19:03:13] <Triskelios> CosmicDJ: NFSv4 does traversal, so it would still work with just one mountpoint
[19:03:30] *** effnorwood has joined #opensolaris
[19:03:32] <stratvox> well, on the sparcs we have in the lab here, we mount /export/home, not /export/home/$user.
[19:03:53] <CosmicDJ> well I'm just saying how it's done with autofs
[19:03:59] <stratvox> Kewl, got that.
[19:04:08] <stratvox> I'll poke around in the file and see what it has to say.
[19:04:12] <stratvox> Thanks for the pointer.
[19:04:32] <CosmicDJ> IIRC you can use wildcards in auto_home (i.e. * opensolaris:/export/home/&)

[20:23:06] <hunter> How solid is the branded zone support in 111?
[20:23:08] *** sergiusens has quit IRC
[20:23:32] <Triskelios> hunter: depends on which brand
[20:23:37] <hunter> I've just found out that "branded zones" EXIST, and that running centos-5 is even a theoretical possibility under solaris
[20:23:50] *** ingenthr has quit IRC
[20:24:00] <hunter> Triskelios: my desire is centos-5.4, but any 5.x would be fine.
[20:24:16] <jamesd2> hunter most here think 111 is getting pretty old, and it would be better to move on to /dev or wait for the next stable release.... but your milage may vary.
[20:24:41] *** ivo_ has joined #opensolaris
[20:24:55] <hunter> jamesd2: this would be a potentially "production" system, so I'd love to stick with 111 if at all possible.
[20:24:59] <Triskelios> the lx26 brand is very incomplete, but important fixes were made recently, so you'll want to update at least
[20:25:14] <hunter> update to what? Is there a recommended target?
[20:25:36] <hunter> From reading around, the only serious limit I'm seeing for what I want to use this for is the automounter.
[20:25:55] *** dijenerate has quit IRC
[20:26:12] <Triskelios> hunter: there are missing syscalls that were hit quite often on some distros
[20:26:56] <hunter> Ubuntu seems hard hit - the "things known to not work" for centos seems a much shorter list.
[20:27:05] *** omry|work has joined #opensolaris
[20:28:33] <Triskelios> at any rate, the severity and number of known bugs in 111 is quite high compared to the current packaged build, which is 134
[20:28:38] <Triskelios> 111b, rather
[20:28:56] <hunter> So you'd recommend running 134 as a base for this kind of testing?
[20:29:11] <hunter> How do I get there - just switch to /dev as the package authority.
[20:29:25] *** frankS2 has joined #opensolaris
[20:29:52] *** Calibellus has joined #opensolaris
[20:29:59] <lewellyn> smrt: explain dev repository
[20:30:00] <smrt> To switch to the /dev repository (OpenSolaris development releases, see the IPS version in /topic): pfexec pkg set-publisher -O http://pkg.opensolaris.org/dev opensolaris.org && pfexec pkg install SUNWipkg && pfexec pkg image-update -v # Then wait. You *must* read the release notes before starting out or you *will* be unhappy. See also: ips mirrors
[20:30:17] <lewellyn> hunter: 134 is the basis of the next release fwiw
[20:30:39] <lewellyn> so you should be able to upgrade to the next release pretty painlessly when it comes out
[20:31:11] <Triskelios> I'd say the most serious bug in 134 is the issue with booting from degraded mirrors
[20:31:18] <hunter> Ok - I'll take that and see how far I get
[20:31:32] <hunter> Triskelios: yeah, that would be upsetting.
[20:31:34] <hunter> :)
[20:31:34] <lewellyn> Triskelios: i'd say the most serious bug is how hard it is to upgrade to :P

[20:55:57] <hunter> Triskelios: um - I need to keep auto-snapshots.
[20:56:04] <hunter> Perhaps I asked the wrong question?
[20:56:21] <Triskelios> hunter: time slider is just a nautilus plugin
[20:56:46] <hunter> Not nautilus - the BOOT time thing that stays on top of the boot up messages.
[20:56:49] <Triskelios> wrapster: yes, since that's what's in the manifest...
[20:57:14] <hunter> I can hit ESC and get back to a text console of startup messages and then a text console login.
[20:57:34] <wrapster> Triskelios: ok thanks
[20:58:32] <Triskelios> hunter: oh, graphical boot. edit GRUB's menu.lst and remove console=graphics from the boot options as well as the splashimage line

[21:24:48] <Laidback_01> however snv_134 - "it" doesn't seem to have all the drivers I'd like to see.
[21:25:07] <Laidback_01> I'm going blow away the boot environments and try again.
[21:25:22] <Laidback_01> and I'll file a bug once my account is reactivated.
[21:25:27] <kundralz> i am not able to install the libicov libraries
[21:25:29] <Triskelios> Laidback_01: okay. that definitely isn't normal
[21:25:44] <Laidback_01> actually just append to the bug that is exiting.
[21:25:58] <Laidback_01> I'd be just fine with the vesa driver if I could get it..

[21:28:30] <Triskelios> kundralz: GNU libiconv is no longer in the package repository. if you require it, you probably should use SFElibiconv
[21:28:33] <Laidback_01> actually, I'm downloading the 2010 preview iso from genunix. Might be cleaner than installing 2009.06 and upgrading.
[21:29:49] <Triskelios> kundralz: if you just need the basic iconv(3) functions, they are in libc

[22:05:32] <lewellyn> fsvo solution ;)
[22:05:59] <causality> i want to put opensolaris on my work laptop but run an xp vm on the second monitor - possible/useful?
[22:06:14] <lewellyn> causality: sure
[22:06:22] <lewellyn> virtualbox can full-screen :)
[22:06:26] <Triskelios> causality: vbox fullscreen should work...

[22:08:12] <Triskelios> melbogia: NFSv4 can cross filesystems, but isn't terribly reliable on Linux

[22:08:55] <melbogia> Triskelios: i am not familiar with autofs :S could you point me to a decent document/resource?
[22:09:04] <jamesd2> causality, sounds lik a good question for #vbox
[22:09:28] <Triskelios> causality: yes, but you usually want a whole disk, not a partition which isn't bootable by itself
[22:10:07] <Triskelios> melbogia: automount(1) should be enough

[22:15:32] <hunter> Is there a good walkthrough of the basics of zones? I don't mean like reference, but a newbie walkthrough?
[22:16:56] <Triskelios> http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2450/zones.intro-1?a=view ?
[22:17:09] <lewellyn> smrt: explain zones
[22:17:09] <smrt> Zones are the Solaris software-level system isolation tool. On Linux, the closest thing would be OpenVZ. On FreeBSD, the closest would be jail(8). Neither has quite the scope of zones. See also: brandz, sparse zones, http://www.solarisinternals.com/wiki/index.php/Zones

[23:11:58] <anarchos> Hi, I'm using new to open solaris and i'm using the osol-jeos image, and i'm wondering, is it okay to remove the defualt user 'osol'? i've set up another user with: pfexec usermod -P'Primary Administrator' user
[23:12:00] *** Israel_Miranda has quit IRC
[23:13:30] <anarchos> or maybe i should change it's name to root...i don't seem to have an account named 'root'

[23:14:03] * alanc has never tried the -jeos variant
