01:30 <****> til then most spam is just an ego boost for me :)
01:31 <****> pfred1: consider running a server. it will not be an ego boost then. oh good lord. aaaaaaah
01:31 <****> ;)
01:31 <****> I wonder how many SPF failures and Blacklist blockings happen in a day at my server
01:31 <****> pseudojw no need my ISP seems to be up for that task
01:42 <****> clusters anyone?
01:43 <****> what kind?
01:44 <****> Quiznos Granola
01:44 <****> freddie!
01:44 <****> what's is better, debian or redhat?
01:44 <****> GNN_RICARDO no
01:44 <****> me is better
01:44 <****> FLAME BAIT!
01:45 <****> GNN_RICARDO Redhat must be better they have much more market capitilization
01:46 <****> plus they attend meetings at Microsoft
01:46 <****> hum. anyone here use centos? I see yum.cron in /etc/cron.daily and it looks as if it performs a system update every time cron runs?
01:46 <****> what's better debian, redhat or freebsd?
01:47 <****> It checks for a flag file first.
01:47 <****> GNN_RICARDO: depends on prefs
01:47 <****> ignacio: flag file?
01:47 <****> Yes.
01:47 <****> whats that?
01:47 <****> (as if you knew this question wasnt coming)
01:47 <****> It's a file that an app or process uses as a flag.
01:47 <****> happy halloween boys and girls
01:47 <****> hmm...does it exist by default?
01:47 <****> sort of like a lock file?
01:48 <****> pseudojw: No. pfred1: Yes.
01:48 <****> ignacio: ah...so it doesnt update daily then.
01:48 <****> Not by default.
01:48 <****> ignacio: ah. wonder how i could make it do that =)
01:48 <****> If a kernel runs out of ram and there's no swap, will it always crash? or does it have some mechanism to forceable reclaim memory from userspace processes?
01:48 <****> service yum start ; chkconfig yum on
01:48 <****> I
01:49 <****> i'm contemplating a reinstall
01:49 <****> nabcore when the kernel runs out of memory what is it to do?
01:49 <****> to fix some stuff
01:49 <****> ignacio: rule. thanks :)
01:49 <****> pfred1, notice that that is going to occur just before it does and do something about it?
01:49 <****> nabcore it's not like it can very well start counting on it's fingers or it's toes now can it?
01:50 <****> Hi. Is it possible to install two versions of one program on the one system? If so, how would I switch between the versions?
01:50 <****> I love when linux si working well
01:50 <****> I love the ability to prgram crap
01:50 <****> it kicks ass
01:50 <****> I hate when linux dont work
01:50 <****> heh
01:50 <****> so hows everyone tonight
01:50 <****> linux-ha sucks
01:50 <****> ucarp seems dpe so far
01:51 <****> dope
01:51 <****> :)
01:51 <****> nabcore I guess you can call the kernel an optimist i don't think it ever plans on running out of memory
01:51 <****> see ya
01:52 <****> it should never run out of memory anyway unless you dont have enough ram or get fork bombed
01:52 <****> pseudojw I've had it happen
01:52 <****> me too
01:52 <****> pfred1: run out of memory or fork bomb?
01:52 <****> run out of memory
01:52 <****> fork bombs are pretty cool...i mean, to do it on a virtual machine. i dunno why, its just cool.
01:52 <****> pseudojw run out of memory from like leaking apps or just a process gone haywire
01:53 <****> pfred1: AH-HAH!! using haywire software
01:53 <****> pseudojw yeah it's out there
01:53 <****> nabcore so did your kernel know it was going to run out of memory before it did?
01:54 <****> or did it just sort of lock up like it does for the rest of us?
01:54 <****> LMAO
01:54 <****> maye it should have a warning "Kernel panic: Almost out of memory."
01:54 <****> yeah what are you going to do about it?
01:55 <****> run to compusa and buy some more SIMMs?
01:55 <****> does anyone know how I can generate a core dump for a program that seg faults?
01:55 <****> rm -rf /swap :-P LOL
01:55 <****> I can't seem to find any information on the subject
01:55 <****> from what I've found, it appears it's generated automatically
01:55 <****> bytecoder see man ulimit
01:55 <****> but I don't know where it is :/
01:55 <****> you may have core dumping turned off
01:56 <****> nabcore, Warning: This routine is obsolete.
01:56 <****> nabcore, I'm assuming I don't want the bash command, right?
01:56 <****> ok, see http://www.network-theory.co.uk/docs/gccintro/gccintro_38.html
01:56 <****> i guess you could say the kernel panicing about running out of memory is about as useful as screaming when the walls on a room are coming inward automatically and you are about to be smooshed
01:56 <****> bytecoder yeah and no software has any bugs just features
01:56 <****> it says use either getrlimit setrlimit or sysconf
01:56 <****> somewhere down in that page, it mentions ulimit settings
01:57 <****> pfred1, what?
01:57 <****> nabcore, Warning: This routine is obsolete.
01:57 <****> oh
01:57 <****> I don't get your point
01:57 <****> I haven't $#^#ed up to the point that I need this yet, but is there any way to delete a hardlink?
01:57 <****> rm?
01:58 <****> man rm?
01:58 <****> rm -f ?
01:59 <****> :)
01:59 <****> Interesting.
01:59 <****> Thanks.
02:00 <****> bytecode; has that link/advice helped you?
02:01 <****> nabcore, oh, yeah
02:01 <****> nabcore, thanks
02:01 <****> cool
02:01 <****> what is an asf file
02:02 <****> what is an asf file
02:02 <****> isn't it a movie format or something?
