AstonV12 | hello | 08:09 |
jaeger | hello | 08:09 |
*** aon has joined #crux | 08:10 | |
AstonV12 | anybody can suggest a nice minimalist window manager? | 08:10 |
jaeger | what degree of minimalism are you after? | 08:10 |
RyoS | evilwm, pekwm.. | 08:11 |
AstonV12 | let's start with very minimalist | 08:11 |
RyoS | evilwm | 08:11 |
jaeger | evilwm | 08:11 |
jaeger | otherwise, there are plenty available: ion3, ratpoison, windowlab | 08:12 |
RyoS | pekwm ._. /me <3 it | 08:12 |
AstonV12 | wow...I should check for all of them! | 08:13 |
aon | cwm too | 08:13 |
AstonV12 | and...what about beryl? I mean..what kind of wm is it? | 08:13 |
jaeger | it's a compositor, like compiz | 08:13 |
treach | wmaker is also nice, and ofc fvwm once you get it right... which might be something of a Project (TM)... :P | 08:13 |
jaeger | meant for the eye-candy crowd | 08:13 |
AstonV12 | you would suggest it or still quite unstable for a not very expert user like me? | 08:14 |
jaeger | I would not suggest it at all unless you want to play with Xgl/AIGLX | 08:15 |
AstonV12 | ok...I'll not try it, already had lot of problems with aiglx | 08:15 |
treach | if you're "not very expert" stick with the old mature stuff. | 08:16 |
AstonV12 | and what about blackbox?I mean..compared to the ones you suggested me (ewm,ion3,evilwm,pekwm,windowlab...) | 08:16 |
AstonV12 | yes...better to use old mature stuff or i'll certainly get in trouble! | 08:17 |
treach | why not give it a try? | 08:17 |
treach | if it doesn't work, there are probably at least another 100 you could try. | 08:17 |
treach | s /work/work out for you/ | 08:18 |
AstonV12 | anyway....I'll have a look for all the ones you suggested and than I'll see... | 08:19 |

deus_ex | aon: Mine is still ok, but eats cpu cycles as crazy. | 09:32 |
RyoS | works fine here | 09:32 |
RyoS | btw anyone checked out the latest svn? it should have mlayer support | 09:33 |
deus_ex | treach: Yes, we know, you hate it :) | 09:33 |
treach | No I don't. I was just not quite happy with the current version. | 09:33 |
deus_ex | RyoS: It always works fine *somewhere*. | 09:33 |
treach | no, Romster has no problems, that's proof that there is nothing wrong with it. | 09:34 |

treach | deus_ex: btw, how much cpu are you talking about? | 09:35 |

treach | I'd say that's way too much, probably time to kill it. :-) | 09:37 |
deus_ex | No, celeron2@2ghz | 09:37 |
treach | it's using ~0.3% here (barton 2500) | 09:37 |

jaeger | deus_ex: yes, and it's updated | 09:48 |

deus_ex | jaeger: Ok, I havent run ports -u today. | 09:49 |

pitillo | deus_ex, I thought to search by your name. :) downloading it. I will listen it this afternoon. :) | 10:32 |

deus_ex | I've got to d/l this :) | 10:51 |
RyoS | sorry for highlight, it was actually meant for all | 10:52 |
treach | mmh. my main complaint about audacious is that it really doesn't work well with fvwm. :-/ | 10:52 |
deus_ex | pitillo: Thanks for reminding me to check out jdolan's mixes. | 10:52 |
jaeger | RyoS: what does it accomplish? not familiar with audtty | 10:53 |
RyoS | audtty is an ncurses client for audacious | 10:54 |
RyoS | starting it headless will just start the core without gui | 10:54 |
deus_ex | jaeger: What's the problem?. | 10:54 |
RyoS | audtty then connects to the core and you have a nice ncurses gui :) | 10:54 |
jaeger | deus_ex: the problem with what? | 10:54 |
jaeger | RyoS: ah. well, seems ok to me | 10:54 |
deus_ex | audacious 'jump to file' | 10:55 |
RyoS | great :) | 10:55 |
jaeger | doh... still some texture problems with the 96xx nvidia drivers | 10:55 |
treach | welcome to the joys of using an "alternative" os. :/ | 10:56 |
jaeger | deus_ex: oh, the fact that it doesn't search properly | 10:56 |
deus_ex | define 'properly'. | 10:58 |
deus_ex | iirc, it works same as in winamp, so if winamp is b0rken, so is this ;) | 10:59 |
jaeger | an example: I have a 2-disc set of Infected Mushroom - Converting Vegetarians ripped - the album name exists in all the id3 tags as well as the filenames but if I try to jump and type in "converting" (case doesn't seem to matter) the search window is completely blank | 11:00 |
jaeger | ah, no, I'm wrong, it *is* case-sensitive | 11:00 |
jaeger | which winamp isn't | 11:01 |
*** ningo has quit IRC | 11:01 | |

*** ningo has joined #crux | 11:03 | |
jaeger | or just send in a patch, I guess | 11:03 |
deus_ex | jaeger: When I search for either 'dj' or 'DJ', it finds same tracks. | 11:04 |
deus_ex | Same for 'incubus' vs 'Incubus'. | 11:06 |
jaeger | awesome, taking a screenshot killed audacaious :) | 11:06 |
aon | hehe | 11:06 |
aon | cmus seems to be still running :) | 11:06 |
deus_ex | btw, 'Converting Vegetarians' <----great title | 11:07 |
aon | the album isn't really bad either iirc | 11:07 |

deus_ex | aon: I prefer trance/techno/d'n'b myself, but I'll check it out. | 11:09 |
jaeger | or XFS | 11:09 |
aon | don't worry, at least one person i know claims that the newer albums aren't psytrance at all :) | 11:10 |
deus_ex | jaeger: weird | 11:11 |
jaeger | what filesystem do you use? | 11:11 |
treach | jfs.. | 11:12 |
deus_ex | ext3 | 11:12 |
jaeger | I'll test it on ext3 | 11:12 |
deus_ex | aon: Ok :) | 11:12 |
jaeger | nope, same results for me on ext3 | 11:14 |
Romster | btw what was that ultimate fs we wouldn't see on linux again, was gonna show a friend i can't fidn the wikipedia page. | 11:15 |
jaeger | zfs? | 11:15 |
RyoS | anyone wants to try my audtty port? :) | 11:16 |
deus_ex | Romster: reiserfs4? | 11:17 |
aon | i think we already have seen it on linux | 11:17 |
deus_ex | But we will not see it again, since main dev is in jail? | 11:18 |
aon | ... | 11:18 |
Romster | deus_ex, no it was like sun microsystems or something striped tree like FS that never fragamented etc. that didn't have a open licence | 11:18 |
Romster | and it had features like LVM2 has | 11:19 |
Romster | dunno about that deus_ex | 11:19 |
Romster | as its opensource reiser could be taken over by anyone.. | 11:19 |
jaeger | http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/ | 11:19 |
aon | and it still doesn't stop existing even if the dev is in jail | 11:19 |
deus_ex | aon: it never was in vanilla kernel, iirc, so it doesn't really count, imho | 11:19 |
Romster | or everyone will use the last stable version till he gets back to it | 11:19 |
Romster | jaeger, hmm that wasn't it but i did look at that one in my search. | 11:22 |
Romster | someone mentained it here along time ago, not sure if it'l be on the archive as the log bot wasn't on then? | 11:22 |
tilman | mentioned or maintained? | 11:22 |
Romster | and i didn't log it :/ | 11:22 |
tilman | are you taking bets? ;) | 11:23 |
Romster | mentioned | 11:24 |
Romster | heh no | 11:24 |
Romster | i just wanna find the damn thing again to show a friend.. | 11:24 |
*** mike_k has joined #crux | 11:28 | |
Romster | i should of bookmarked it, soemone I think it was here said it wasn't licenced to be aviable for linux to use. but the FS had alot of features i wanted to show a friend. not unless it was in #linuxhelp i might be confusing myself. | 11:29 |
tilman | what are you looking for? | 11:30 |
aon | some fs that seems like zfs but isn't it and isn't available on linux | 11:32 |
Romster | a filesystem that i read about it was either here or in #linuxhelp i so can't remember it had features like LVM etc, it wasn't open licensed which is a shame, i can't for the life of me find it on google or wikipedia.. | 11:33 |
treach | sounds pretty much like zfs to me. | 11:33 |
tilman | :D | 11:33 |
tilman | yeah, it probably is | 11:33 |
Romster | had a restricive licence that would make porting it to linux a copyright violation, but i'm trying to find the site so i can show a friend about it. | 11:34 |
treach | maybe it's just the glue that made the name and the object disconnect? | 11:34 |
Romster | i looked and its got a FUSE project in the works :/ | 11:34 |
treach | zfs is under CCDL | 11:34 |
Romster | dunno if that was it? | 11:34 |
*** steini has quit IRC | 11:34 | |
tilman | "bad licensing" is another argument for it being zfs | 11:34 |
Romster | heh | 11:34 |
tilman | DTrace would be fun to have in linux | 11:35 |
treach | well, they've got to protect whatever interesting stuff they come up with. | 11:35 |
tilman | but because of cddl evilness, they may not include it :'( | 11:35 |
treach | Can't say I blame them. | 11:35 |
Romster | i'll keep looking around when i'm bored but i'm still shure zfs wasn't it but i could be on a wild goose hunt :/ | 11:35 |
treach | They really need any incentitive they can find to get peple to use solaris imo.. | 11:35 |
tilman | some days ago i saw that nvidia provides binary drivers for solaris | 11:36 |
tilman | made my jaw drop a bit | 11:36 |
treach | why? | 11:36 |
tilman | Wouldn't have expected that at all | 11:36 |
Romster | O_o | 11:37 |
treach | a lot of workstations around the world runs solaris.. and nivia sells workstation class graphics cards.. | 11:37 |
treach | *nvidia* | 11:37 |
treach | so if they want into the industrial CAD business they pretty much have to provide the drivers. :) | 11:38 |
tilman | i thought industrial CAD was all windows these days | 11:39 |
treach | nope.. | 11:39 |
tilman | heh, i finally got this weird ass Gouranga spam, too | 11:40 |
treach | never underestimate the inertia in the industrial world. :-) | 11:40 |
tilman | true | 11:41 |
tilman | at the company i work at, most of our customers still run windows 98... | 11:41 |
tilman | power supplier companies | 11:42 |
treach | ugh. | 11:42 |
treach | that's bad. The companies I've been at usually at least uses NT4. | 11:42 |
RedShift2 | ugh windows 98 | 11:44 |
RedShift2 | now that is one bad piece of software | 11:44 |
tilman | it's especially fun cause microsoft doesn't support it anymore | 11:44 |
treach | NT4 isn't brilliant, but at least it doesn't crash if you give the computer an odd look. | 11:44 |
RedShift2 | I have some customers too that run win98, I'm really pushing to get them to upgrade | 11:44 |
tilman | the latest .net framework crap doesn't work on nt4 either ;) | 11:44 |
RedShift2 | I'm not supporting win98 anymore, otherwise I'd lose all my hair | 11:44 |
treach | who cares about .NET, really? | 11:44 |
RedShift2 | .net is nice | 11:45 |
tilman | treach: the industry | 11:45 |
treach | A bunch of hot air from what I've seen in actual use, and a few tv commercials.. | 11:45 |
RedShift2 | I had hoped it would stop that wild growth of non-conforming windows programs | 11:45 |

treach | interesting though. Poor miguel, redundant again.. >:-) | 11:51 |
tilman | maybe he'll switch horses now :D | 11:51 |
treach | I doubt that. He's always been a sucker for MS-tech. | 11:51 |
tilman | yeah? | 11:52 |
treach | afik, yes. IIRC he even applied for jobs at ms, more than once. | 11:52 |
treach | I think it fell on the "green card" issue or something. | 11:53 |
treach | Don't ask for sources, it's a long time since I read about it, just a vauge recollection. | 11:53 |
tilman | np, i don't care about miguel and/or gnome all that much | 11:54 |
treach | neither do I, but you are free to compare the old gmc with win95 ;-) | 11:54 |
tilman | it's been 5 years since i ran gmc | 11:55 |
tilman | was it better or worse than windows 95's explorer? | 11:55 |
treach | let's make it 6. At least! :D | 11:55 |
tilman | 5 years and 4 months maybe! | 11:55 |
tilman | :P | 11:55 |
treach | better/worse wasn't my point, I just meant they feel very similar, at least imo. | 11:56 |
tilman | oh | 11:56 |
treach | also, bonobo etc was heavily inspired by MS OLE iirc. | 11:56 |
tilman | yes | 11:57 |
tilman | i thought about that when you mentioned 'ms tech' before | 11:57 |
treach | I bet it's all out there in some mail archive I can't be bothered to find. :-) | 11:57 |

tilman | RyoS: xmms2 has a pretty neat media library | 12:12 |
tilman | and soon it will have a pretty neat way to define playlists on speed ("collections") | 12:12 |

treach | also, it makes me question how much sparetime that guy has. :D | 12:50 |
pitillo | and shade method is a bit simply, how can make diferences between 2 shaded windows?... like the r/l shade, but without info about the window is quite difficult, imo. Can be interesting to dev the side shade with the top bar, and not only make top shades in other wm. | 12:51 |
treach | don't shade multipel windows on the same viritual desk, maybe. :) | 12:52 |
thrice` | doesn't that defeat the purpose of shade? :) | 12:55 |
treach | of course it does. That's why I said maybe. :P | 12:56 |
pitillo | or differents shades (ff top shade, other app r/l shade...) | 12:56 |
treach | well, I use the titlebar to get info about what happens in the window while it's shaded, so I'd keep it. :-) | 12:57 |

deus_ex | what is 'gimmick'? | 13:03 |
treach | special useless feature. | 13:04 |
rehabdoll | i heard that matrox had some "opensource" drivers out with one of their boards.. but that it was not really free | 13:04 |
tilman | cheap stuff to attract the masses | 13:04 |
tilman | rehabdoll: want me to elaborate on that? ;) | 13:04 |
deus_ex | (apart from being codename for arch linux 0.7.2) | 13:05 |
rehabdoll | feel free to :) | 13:06 |
treach | deus_ex: something like having a firewire connector on your mb when you have no such devices. | 13:06 |
tilman | xfree86's mga driver needs a proprietary "hal" module to be able to use "advanced" features like mergedfb ("twinview" in nvidia land) and dual head | 13:07 |
tilman | maybe that's what you mean | 13:07 |
rehabdoll | matrox_driver-x86_32-src-4.4.0.tar.gz | 13:07 |

deus_ex | treach: So, archlinux-0.7.2 a.k.a 'gimmick' = 'cheap stuff to attract the masses, full of special useless features'? ;) | 13:11 |
treach | undefined reference to `XRenderFindStandardFormat, XListPixmapFormats, XFree, XCreatePixmap hmm... | 13:12 |
treach | deus_ex: apparently. | 13:12 |
deus_ex | That sounds like Win0ws Vista... | 13:12 |
treach | tilman: do you know where those functions are supposed to be found? | 13:12 |
tilman | XFree is very basic stuff (libX11.so) | 13:13 |
tilman | so it seems something's really strange there | 13:13 |
treach | they all ara as far as I can find out.. | 13:13 |
tilman | what port/package? | 13:13 |
treach | yeah. | 13:13 |
treach | it's my own slightly modded firefox. | 13:14 |
tilman | hah | 13:14 |
treach | but it's not much different. | 13:14 |
treach | besideds, it used to build.. | 13:14 |
tilman | are you on x11r7 or x11r6? | 13:14 |
treach | x11r7 | 13:15 |
tilman | can you post the diff to firefox? | 13:15 |
tilman | both source code and pkgfile | 13:15 |
treach | there isn't much to it. I added a few configure options, and that's it. | 13:16 |
tilman | can you post the compiler output then? | 13:17 |
tilman | the line that results in the error | 13:17 |
treach | it's what I posted above plus collect2: ld returned 1 exit status | 13:18 |
treach | make[3]: *** [libgklayout.so] Error 1 | 13:18 |
tilman | i need the gcc call | 13:18 |
tilman | or, check that it includes "-lX11" | 13:18 |
treach | looking for it.. :P | 13:18 |
treach | it appears to be related to cairo. | 13:19 |
tilman | blame it on the cairo | 13:19 |
treach | I feel like it, but is it reasonable? | 13:20 |
tilman | firefox builds without your modifications? | 13:20 |
treach | I'm just about to try again with the cairo stuff commented. but it did build in the past, *with* the cairo stuff.. | 13:21 |
treach | it feels like cairo changed, except that it's refering to fairly basic x stuff, if I get things right. | 13:21 |
tilman | maybe it only links to `pkg-config --libs cairo` | 13:23 |
tilman | it should probably link to `pkg-config --libs cairo cairo-xlib` | 13:23 |
tilman | that's just a wild guess though | 13:24 |
treach | hmm. apparently someone has enabled -fvisibility=hidden in the firefox build.. | 13:24 |
tilman | maybe it's automatically done on gcc4 | 13:24 |
tilman | would make sense! | 13:24 |
tilman | (if the code is prepared for it) | 13:24 |
treach | that's a pretty big if though. :P | 13:24 |
tilman | if you send me the diffs, i'll take a look | 13:26 |
treach | I'll try without the cairo stuff first, it'll take a while. | 13:27 |
tilman | okay | 13:27 |
treach | but I haven't been hacking on firefox, it's just a few more switches for configure. | 13:27 |
tilman | i see | 13:28 |
treach | (that I thought made sense.) | 13:28 |
tilman | :P | 13:28 |
treach | hmm, firefox picks up sqlite3 if you've got it, or does it ship with that build in as well? o_O | 13:29 |
tilman | cool, that openbox bug struck again | 13:30 |
tilman | it's been a long time! | 13:30 |
treach | ah, must feel like meeting an old friend again then. | 13:31 |
tilman | treach: hum, you aren't building firefox 2, are you? afaik the sqlite stuff is to come with firefox 3 | 13:31 |
treach | one that constantly wants to borrow money.. | 13:31 |
tilman | ;p | 13:31 |
treach | I'm building ff2 | 13:31 |
tilman | cool, ff2 restored my session | 13:32 |
Romster | treach, look up on the output and see if its missing a library something.so | 13:32 |
Romster | i had missing libs before :/ | 13:32 |
RyoS | is contrib-old unmaintained? | 13:32 |
treach | Romster: If I'm missing libs, why did it build the first time? | 13:32 |
treach | when ff2 had been out for a week or two? | 13:32 |
treach | tilman: yeah, that's one of the good things about it. there are a few annoyances as well, so I guess it evens out. | 13:33 |
Romster | treach, then your not missing libs unless it now needs an aditional lib for a extra option? | 13:35 |
Romster | fx2 i was told was the geek name for firefox, as ff is for final fantasy. | 13:36 |
Romster | RyoS, yes afaik | 13:36 |
Romster | treach, what extra configure options btw? | 13:38 |
Romster | care to paste them so i can mess around myself | 13:38 |
treach | --enable-system-cairo --enable-svg-renderer=cairo , I think those are the ones which cause problems. Too early to tell for sure yet. | 13:42 |
Romster | ah yeah svg is sweet i should try them out. | 13:43 |

mike_k | tilman: can you close bugs # 115, 100, 92? | 15:11 |
tilman | let me have a look | 15:11 |
Han | Romster, but my version is much better. :P | 15:11 |
mike_k | sepen: if it's only based on Pkfiles, footprints, etc analysys - there already exist one. prtverify. | 15:13 |
sepen | mike_k, look at diffs->>> $ prtverify /usr/ports/sepen/blender | 15:15 |
sepen | $ findexternaldeps.sh /usr/ports/sepen/blender/ | 15:15 |
sepen | External deps for blender are: libjpeg,ode,openal,fmod,smpeg,ftgl,scons,openexr | 15:15 |
sepen | prtverify returns my blender port OK, xD | 15:15 |
mike_k | sorry, no svn installed atm ( | 15:16 |
prologic | http://shortcircuit.net.au/~prologic/downloads/getlibdeps | 15:17 |
prologic | I think my script does a similar job | 15:17 |
sepen | browse at http://mikeux.dyndns.org/websvn/listing.php?repname=sepen+scripts&path=%2Ftrunk%2F | 15:17 |
sepen | mm | 15:18 |
Han | Romster, I removed the duplicate ports, except for pkgutils, ports and rpm2targz since I thing they really add something. and they were in the old contrib as well. | 15:19 |
sepen | prologic, nice! but had you obtain some estrange experience with '# Depends on:' and '# Depends:' lines? | 15:20 |
sepen | not all ports have the same dep header | 15:20 |
prologic | sepen, not sure how much my script differs from yours | 15:21 |
prologic | but mine just tries to find out what libs and essentially what ports a binrary depends on | 15:21 |
mike_k | sepen: seems "prtverify -m missing-deps -c ../core -c ../opt -c ../contrib blender" does the job | 15:21 |
prologic | usefull to correctly fill in the "Depends On" | 15:22 |
sepen | mmm mike_k thanks | 15:22 |
sepen | prologic, try my bash script if you want, works fine | 15:22 |
prologic | I think as mike_k said, yours just does what prtverify can do already :) | 15:23 |
sepen | yes, prtverify really is nice! | 15:23 |
Romster | han then shouldn't you inform and send the patch for core? for altering, or do so if you have core access. (which i assume you don't or you would of altered it already, in core) | 15:24 |
*** bismark has joined #crux | 15:24 | |
sepen | mike_k, prtverify -m missing-deps -c /usr/ports/core -c /usr/ports/opt -c /usr/ports/contrib /usr/ports/sepen/blender | 15:25 |
sepen | great! | 15:25 |
Han | Not everybody prefers my version of pkgutils. | 15:25 |
tilman | prologic: do you plan to import your 'icecast' port to contrib? | 15:26 |
Romster | rpm2targz i'm talking about | 15:26 |
prologic | tilman, I plan to import them all :) | 15:26 |
tilman | prologic: https://crux.nu/bugs/?do=details&id=100 | 15:27 |
prologic | all that were marked as .sync in the old contrib :) | 15:27 |
tilman | fix the deps please | 15:27 |
prologic | just going through and fixing up flaws that prtverify has picked up | 15:27 |
prologic | ahh | 15:27 |
prologic | why did I not get an email ? | 15:27 |
prologic | flyspary does send out emails right ? | 15:27 |
mike_k | prologic: if it's assigned, I assume | 15:28 |
tilman | maybe because you don't have a flyspray account? | 15:28 |
prologic | no I do | 15:28 |
Romster | you'd want to pre or post fix your version so it's not the same name as pkgutils, but maybe pkgutils-saferoot or something? | 15:28 |
prologic | I just thought I'd have gotten an email about it if it's a bug with my port | 15:28 |
prologic | but maybe you're right - it's prolly not assigned to me | 15:28 |
tilman | not in the 'crux' flyspray project probably | 15:28 |
tilman | flyspray + contrib = mess right now | 15:28 |
Han | nah | 15:29 |
prologic | well I do have a flyspary account | 15:29 |
prologic | but yeah I can see it not working too well atm | 15:29 |
mike_k | tilman: how do I assign bug to someone? is it possible now? | 15:29 |
tilman | prologic: let me know when you committed the fixed version of icecast please | 15:29 |
tilman | mike_k: you probably don't have sufficient rights | 15:30 |
prologic | *nods* | 15:30 |
tilman | afaik the plan is to set up a new flyspray environment for contrib some how | 15:30 |
prologic | yay | 15:30 |
mike_k | tilman: this way fluspray is not a very handy thing to submit contrib bugs =( | 15:30 |
prologic | no tasks assigned to me | 15:30 |
prologic | wonderfull :) | 15:30 |
tilman | mike_k: we. are. working. on. it. | 15:31 |
prologic | can't we just integrate flyspary/contrib somehow ? | 15:31 |
mike_k | ok, ok, that is a good news. | 15:31 |
prologic | just needs to be assigned to the maintainer for the port in question | 15:31 |
tilman | yes | 15:31 |
tilman | we know | 15:31 |
tilman | okay | 15:31 |

Romster | sepen, prt-get deptree, also shows missing deps, (not found in ports tree) | 15:40 |
sepen | Romster, yes but if you have this installed also | 15:42 |
Romster | its in core :) | 15:42 |
sepen | prtverify runs perfectly xD | 15:43 |
Romster | i got a little bash script that can read all the metatags and vars out of Pkgfiles I'm gonna use that to generate my own html page sometime. | 15:43 |
Romster | that lists description, and other things that i think the current setup on crux.nu is lacking, | 15:44 |
Romster | and yeah i'm using prt-verify | 15:44 |
sepen | Romster, Im using portspage for doing that with html's | 15:44 |
Romster | one anoying bug in prt-verify it won't run in a directory with the Pkgfile, only if i cd .. then run it with the directory name.. | 15:45 |
Romster | sepen, i'm using that atm, but i'm not happy with it. | 15:45 |
sepen | yea | 15:46 |
Romster | i'd like to list a category, and description and add a search capability for files again, that got removed off crux.nu | 15:47 |
Romster | i used to use that alot... | 15:47 |
sepen | where is located? | 15:47 |
Romster | sepen, eh? | 15:50 |
Romster | prt-get fsearch works if you have all the repos but that a pain, and it dosn't do selective searches in said paths afaik. | 15:50 |
Romster | oh yay long compile only to find i'm missing a dependency :/ | 15:50 |
* Romster lists it and then trys again. | 15:50 | |
treach | maybe should have kind of read the docs before? | 15:51 |
sepen | http://paste.lisp.org/display/29845 | 15:51 |
j^2 | has anyone ever heard that ethernet cables "shouldn't" be less then 3ft? | 16:04 |
j^2 | IEEE standard or something? | 16:05 |
prologic | oh never heard that | 16:05 |
Romster | no wonder i can't run prt-verify in the same dir as the Pkgfile.... | 16:05 |
Romster | like ya jsut make a port and to prt-verify ya have to cd .. then prt-verify foo | 16:05 |
jaeger | I've made crossover cables shorter than that before... but never used a straight-through that short | 16:05 |
Romster | for i in `ls`; do < what the for i in *; do works jsut fine or use $(ls --no-color) note $() is the same as `` (backticks but is easier to read) | 16:05 |
prologic | but I can verify I've used cat5 cables <10cm | 16:05 |
Romster | i hadn't looked into prt-verify that much but i might hack at it soemtime, it still misses some junk files, i have noticed. | 16:06 |
Romster | treach, i had read the docs but i also tryed to do what i think it should do. | 16:06 |
prologic | I've used a 5cm straight-through | 16:06 |
j^2 | yeah same here, my manager just said that he "thought" it was a ieee standard never to have it shorter then 3ft | 16:06 |
prologic | might be standard but doesn't stop you from doing it I guess | 16:07 |
Romster | i never knew of a short limit, only 10 meters of stranded and 90 meters of solid core is the limit, 100Meters total | 16:07 |
Romster | 3ft nearly a meter :/ | 16:07 |
j^2 | hmm ok | 16:07 |
j^2 | thanks guys ;) | 16:07 |
prologic | nah you can go further than 100m :) | 16:08 |
treach | I think that's the standard for thinnet | 16:08 |
prologic | I've strung over 400ms of Cat5 | 16:08 |
treach | (shouldn't be shorter than 3ft.) | 16:08 |
Romster | mayeb its got todo with the cable impedence? but that dosn't matter on length, i'd say thats a bogus claim | 16:08 |
Romster | wtf, with no repeaters in 100M sections? | 16:08 |
treach | hello, earth calling. | 16:08 |
treach | it's for *thinnet* afaik. | 16:08 |
Romster | oh ok no less than 1 meter then :/ | 16:09 |
aon | i think there can be problems with some equipment because the Rx voltage is too high | 16:10 |
deus_ex | jaeger: would it be possible to put openal svn snapshot tarball somewhere on, I don't know, crux.nu, and use that to build the port? | 16:10 |
jaeger | I suppose it would, having problems with the svn? | 16:10 |
Romster | well what i got was out of the siliconchip electronics magazine i get so if i'm wrong thats wrong too, ont he max distance, hteres no miniumn afaik, i guess 1Meter is the shortist? | 16:10 |
deus_ex | Yes, it takes a long time atm ;( | 16:11 |
Romster | over 1 meter of cable the loss would be negeltable | 16:11 |
treach | meh, there are all kinds of rules wrt repeaters and segments and what not, which I should know.. | 16:11 |
treach | but I don't. :-( | 16:11 |
aon | if you just mess in cabinets it doesn't matter that much | 16:12 |
aon | use whatever is available :) | 16:12 |
aon | if that doesn't work, switch | 16:12 |
Romster | i only learn stuff that i have to sue alot :) | 16:12 |
treach | lol | 16:13 |
Romster | aon, do it the right way(tm) the first time and save having to redo it later if its not right :) | 16:13 |
aon | by not following standards you secure your own employment :) | 16:13 |
treach | aon: anyway, it bugs me that I don't remember, but it's related to what I said about not being well earlier this evening. :-( | 16:13 |
aon | :/ | 16:13 |
* Romster shakes my head | 16:13 | |
aon | i've never "officially" heard of that | 16:14 |
aon | hm, i think i have some book on the subject | 16:14 |
aon | -> | 16:14 |
Romster | if i didn't follow standareds with electronics i could create some very dangerious siturations :/ | 16:14 |
Romster | in the lest case it won't work right | 16:14 |
Romster | no safety issues with lan cable but in electronics in general. | 16:14 |
Romster | thats why there are standereds | 16:15 |
aon | yeah, but we aren't discussing electronics in general, i think :) | 16:15 |
Romster | for reliability, safety, and compatability | 16:15 |
treach | same with networks, but just the same as you sometimes find someone has replaced a fuse with a nail, sometimes you finde flagrant breach of the standards in this field as well. | 16:15 |
aon | yeah.. | 16:15 |
Romster | reliabality fals on lan cable standareds | 16:16 |
Romster | falls* | 16:16 |
treach | shouldn't happen, but it does, because of neclect, incompetens or just plain "it's gotta work - yesterday, and screw all else". | 16:16 |
Romster | well using a nail is jsut asking for trouble and possability of a fire | 16:16 |
treach | but it works. | 16:17 |
treach | if all goes well. | 16:17 |
Romster | those types shouldn't be allowed near anything then :) | 16:17 |
treach | same applies to a number of things in networking. | 16:17 |
Romster | thats the keyword 'if all goes well' | 16:17 |
treach | yeah. | 16:17 |
*** vico has joined #crux | 16:17 | |
treach | that's why there *is* a standard. | 16:17 |
deus_ex | So many to choose from... | 16:18 |
treach | if it doesn't go as planned, you can get errors that are terribly hard to nail down. it's bad enough as it is. | 16:18 |
treach | deus_ex: it's a well known fact that in the US you have to have at least two standards, whatever the situation. ;-) | 16:19 |
aon | fwiw, i didn't find anything on shortness limitations | 16:19 |
aon | hehe | 16:19 |
Romster | i've seen some bad things and fireworks etc from stupid things people have done :/ or protentl shock hazards. | 16:19 |
Romster | treach, totally agree | 16:19 |
Romster | i'm off for a shower i gotta go out soon | 16:19 |
Romster | aon, neather have i | 16:20 |
treach | aon: did you look for tp or thinnet? | 16:20 |
aon | no | 16:20 |
aon | ehm, tp :) | 16:20 |
treach | ah. | 16:20 |
aon | if by tp you mean twisted pair | 16:20 |
treach | I can't remember anything wrt tp, but I'd say no less that 1/2 m | 16:21 |
treach | yeah. | 16:21 |
aon | hm | 16:22 |
treach | actually, cutting cables is an entire sience.. I'm surprised it works as well as it does. | 16:22 |
aon | of course | 16:23 |
treach | cut it wrong and you get no signal, or you get massive bounces that might cause serious damage. | 16:23 |
aon | return loss will be too small if the cable is too short | 16:23 |
aon | since there's a minimum limit for that | 16:23 |
treach | it has more with the wave-form to do than the actual resistance of the cable iirc. | 16:24 |
aon | same thing with elfext | 16:26 |
treach | ie, cut the cable in a node, and you get no signal, and so on. (All IIRC, it's been more than 10 years since I had anything with that to do.) | 16:26 |
aon | surely far-end crosstalk at least is affected? | 16:28 |
treach | well, I'm talking in a general sense. | 16:28 |
treach | happily the effects are too low in this setting for it to cause any major accidents. | 16:30 |
aon | yep, i'm still talking about the minimum length and why it would be set :) | 16:30 |
treach | I remember a story my teacher back then told me about a guy who misadjusted an antenna on the radio buss he was responsible for. :P | 16:31 |
aon | i'm not quite getting what you exactly mean by cutting cables | 16:31 |
treach | it's related. it's the same phenomena that makes really short cables less suitable. | 16:33 |
treach | at least from what I've been taught a very, very long time ago. | 16:34 |
aon | do you mean the cutting that's done before a connector is attached? | 16:34 |
deus_ex | aon: http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies-archive.cfm/362707.html | 16:34 |
treach | yeah. | 16:34 |
Romster | massive bounces, your talking about reflections swr | 16:35 |
aon | yeah | 16:35 |
aon | i agree that it's unbelievable how often it works :) | 16:35 |
Romster | signal wave refelection | 16:35 |
aon | standing wave ratio :p | 16:36 |
Romster | and cable impedence and the length of an antenna cable for a wavelength which is 1 / (speed of light * Hz) = distance for one cycle | 16:36 |
*** jaeger has quit IRC | 16:37 | |
Romster | ah thats it, i was trying to recall it from my mind | 16:37 |
Romster | haven't touched cbs etc for zonkes | 16:37 |
Romster | refelections upset the impedence which can blow up rf power stages | 16:37 |
aon | but in ethernet it isn't about unmatched load | 16:37 |
Romster | nope rf power is so low, miliwatts or less | 16:38 |
Romster | but refelectiosn count remember the old 52ohm lan networks had matching resistors on each end :) | 16:39 |
treach | Romster: right, I couldn't think of the right term. | 16:39 |
aon | yeah, and it's usually caused because faulty connectors | 16:39 |
treach | that guy I mentioned before? He burned that buss to cinders. :P | 16:40 |
Romster | without the matched line, the reflections garble up the data, and make it hard to pick what its state is, so its preaty much corupted data. | 16:40 |
Romster | how the? | 16:40 |
treach | Romster: he misadjusted the antenna. | 16:40 |
aon | yeah | 16:40 |
Romster | started a fire in the buss? | 16:40 |
treach | he had a pretty serious radio transmitter. | 16:40 |
treach | yeah. | 16:41 |
aon | and those tend to heat if your SWR is somewhere around 10 :) | 16:41 |
treach | basically he was operating a mobile radio station. | 16:41 |
treach | there was *nothing* tangible left of neither the buss nor his career. :P | 16:42 |
aon | lol | 16:42 |
treach | Romster: please find a blackboard somewhere, and then write "reflections" a hundred times on it. | 16:45 |
treach | "The reason for minimum lenght, is to get the required number of twists." | 16:45 |
treach | right. | 16:45 |
treach | I had totally forgotten about that, but definitely rings a bell. | 16:46 |
treach | a whole set actually. | 16:46 |
Romster | must of been some serious rf power it was using and not tuned right | 16:47 |
Romster | must of. | 16:47 |
Romster | they should be SWR tested | 16:47 |
Romster | 10 is insane | 16:47 |
Romster | 1:1 is optium 2:1 is average but anymore is jsut bad for high power | 16:47 |
Romster | heh | 16:47 |
Romster | trained in fitting antennas? | 16:47 |
Romster | or some noob | 16:47 |
Romster | i'll give him a job working on 415 volts 3 phase :P that should fix him hehe. | 16:47 |
Romster | then again he'll probbly survive and burn the place down knowing my luck | 16:47 |
treach | also it has to do with propagation time. | 16:47 |
treach | all the reasons I learned are in that thread above. | 16:48 |
aon | Romster: 2 is pretty much the maximum | 16:49 |
aon | treach: yeah, that explanation seems reasonable :) | 16:49 |
treach | they are all reasonable, and true, it's just a matter of to which degree they matter. | 16:50 |
treach | I guess impedance mismatch isn't such a problem with data cableing. :-) | 16:51 |
aon | yeah :) | 16:51 |
Romster | lol my spelling really anoyes you, dosn't it | 16:51 |
Romster | the cable is tightly twisted, and dosn't really matter i guess a few cm would even be enougth. | 16:52 |
Romster | probbly todo with the power level designed for 100meters of cable, but i'm sure lan cards can adjust that for best snr ratio | 16:52 |
Romster | err signal/noise ratio | 16:52 |
Romster | yeah time delay, wave length maybe minium length is a few waveforms, i think lan cards work arond 350MHz for 100mbit not sure for gigabit lan. | 16:52 |

Romster | limit | 16:54 |
aon | i think the ones we had @ the place i worked in the summer were 3ft (yes, feet, hrrr.) | 16:55 |
