Looks like someone found a great use to some old Cisco stuff http://imgur.com/tTxx8ag Plenty of power in the datacenter, all it would cost is some rackspace and then toeshred could have a nice refreshing beer when he's done. yep, that's about the best use for it brycec: Hah that's awesome. Wouldn't fly with the data center policy though :( I guess that is precisely why it is camouflaged though. lol Yeah I wouldn't allow it my DC either But for somebody's office where hiding a cooler of beer is less of an issue, it's awesome. coffee is bad enough old boss liked showing off our renovated dc area and never stopped people from bringing drinks in :((( visitor dropped some giant starbucks monstrosity on the ground and it went right under the floor so gross Any equipment damaged too? nah, got lucky indeed we had someone spill a drink in the monitoring area (raised floor there too for cabling) and he wrecked a code merger box took rs232 and converted it to bilinx communication stuff for old camera movement $900 dingus how does archlinux deal with multi monitor setups? I assume it uses Xorg? ^ yep, standard xrandr/xorg k https://gist.github.com/anonymous/80c14f91e244384b2d9f Gist: "gns3server error" any idea what package I might be missing to get that working? pip install chardet? I have installed it in the past from AUR using Yaourt with great sucess in Virtualbox. This time I am trying on bare metal (laptop) awesome, looks like it worked Virtual or not should not matter here. How did you install gns3server, and does installing the chardet package fix it? You should probably submit a bug report to the package maintainer. hahahaha that cisco thing is cool mercutio: what cisco thing? router brycec ? Looks like someone found a great use to some old Cisco stuff http://imgur.com/tTxx8ag cutting and pasting just doesn't seem to work right even with left select if i have weechat's mouse mode on i split a drink on my keyboard once. it didn't work right afterwards, giving phantom keys etc. but i happened to have another one just the same. it was also pre-windows keys and "nice" - when it was getting harder and harder to get "nice" keyboards. it didn't seem to make me stop wanting to have drinks by my computer. i hear horror stories of people spilling drinks on laptops though. could be a lot more painful... s/split/spilt i spilt a drink on my keyboard once. it didn't work right afterwards, giving phantom keys etc. but i happened to have another one just the same. My missus spilled a smoothie/juice/thing on her Das Keyboard the other day :( Always amazed at where liquids, even thick ones, can end up. damn at least you should be able to remove keys and clean Did, but it's too fargone damn The USB hub still seems to work... those keyboards seemed overpriced to me :) but the keyboard never enumerates. what does it do when you try using it? hmm yeah it could take hours to try and fix i imagine adn still get nowhere Literally the keyboard doesn't even enumerate on the USB bus. Just doesn't respond to the host controller. wow maybe short circuit LEDs light so there's power, but seems like the controller is "stuck" yeah it's hard to know it may be getting overloaded by too many simultaneous keys or something das keyboards here are like twice the price of normal mech keyboards i really should try changing what i use :/ i've got a bluue somewhere wow, really that much? I paid about $100 for this one. (and the missus is pretty much insisting on another of the same) hmm my brown was about $50 US I think make that $70 hmm Most MK's I've seen cost in the $75-$200 range. yeah i like to be at the lower end of that i have two ducky keyboards, and one cm storm quickfire I love my Ducky i like all 3 ok now i'm on ducky blue, from ducky red. hopefully it stops making me make so many typos. I started with blacks and I prefer them to this day :) damn the cable is short. i may have to route it around the back. i like all 3 tbh this one has annoying blue led's though; the other one is green. it's much nicer when the led's are "soft" what ducky are you using? damn blue is noisy. it's even got o-rings; and it still seems noisy. Ducky DK9087 oh with the fancy lights? i have the ones withoutlights Yeah with the fancy lights. They're so pretty and fancy! :p They annoy the heck out of my missus. She sees the patterns out of the corner of her eye and they bug her. yeah i can't stand patterns out of the corner of my eye either i don't think i'm necessarily seizure prone, but fast moving objects in peripheral vision agitate me. it's damn annoying with flickering lights arch on bare metal lenovo laptop - whats the best way to get sound working? I tried pulseaudio but no luck mnathani_: cat /proc/asound/cards Do you see your card there? If not, it's probably not supported. If it is, then you messed *something* up because normally PA just grabs whatever Alsa supports and JustWOrks(tm) [mnathani@archr61 ~]$ cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel HDA Intel at 0xfe020000 irq 32 y so I probably broke something mnathani: Does "alsamixer" (no args) show PA or the card? And if the card, does it show the controls you'd expect? [mnathani@archr61 ~]$ osstest /dev/mixer: No such file or directory (then test with "alsamixer -c 0") oss? what is this, 1999? working now but I have no idea if it was pulse, alsa, or oss I think I spun the wheel and something ended up working alsamixer showed pulse audio $1$.*+ oops :) what is the go to gui terminal on arch that supports tabs? presently using gnome-terminal, but for some reason it does not have tabs terminator urxvt + tmux :P But last I knew, gnome-terminal had tabs brycec: turns out gnome-terminal has a setting in preferences to enable tabs $1$.*+ up arrow doesn't work damnit lol
