"sleep random"? [11:29] mick_laptop: i do have a referral program, but what i don't have is a way of tracking who referred who and who stayed longer than 3 months (i generally require, now, for the free referral month, that the person who was referred stays 3 months) [11:30] *** vtoms has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving.)

[11:31] I plan on staying a while since I just went through the process of migrating a bunch from linode. ;) [11:31] there's a lot of people that are like "i just wanna try this out" [11:31] then there are the people looking for a permanent home for their services [11:31] by the way, we cancelled our EC2 on sunday. [11:31] cmeiklejohn: yeah so you're in the 2nd group ;) [11:31] RandalSchwartz: woo :) [11:31] down from $155/month to $70/month, with far better connectivity [11:32] and freebsd instead of a Dead OS [11:32] * up_the_irons wonders what connectivity EC2 has [11:32] i actually never checked... [11:32] well - they throttle, I think [11:32] RandalSchwartz: i aim to please [11:32] RandalSchwartz: ah [11:32] they want you to buy lots of machines, so the per-machine limit seems low [11:33] btw, if anyone wants a netbook recommendation; i just got an MSI Wind 1350 and it is bad ass. i'm on it now [11:33] up_the_irons: I'll check it out. [11:33] I'm up to "Professional" on ipv6.he.net/certification/ [11:33] RandalSchwartz: yeah, they are geared toward "need 50 VMs to index your dictionary?" and then after it's done, you destroy the vms [11:33] I just need to move my secondary from afraid.org to he.net to get the next level [11:34] cmeiklejohn: what drew me in was the incredible contrast on the screen coupled with great brightness. usually, a lot of brightness will wash out the screen and you get greys. not with this little guy. [11:34] cmeiklejohn: and at $279, it was a no brainer [11:35] up_the_irons: interesting. I have a Asus Eee right now which is pretty decent. [11:35] cmeiklejohn: yeah i almost went the Asus route [11:35] up_the_irons: what are you running on it? [11:35] the screen didn't impress me quite as much [11:35] cmeiklejohn: ubuntu 10.04 netbook edition. but then i installed xmonad on top and run xmonad with a full gnome session in the background [11:36] cool, i'm running ubuntu 10.04 netbook as well. [11:36] I almost went the xmonad route, but didn't. [11:36] everything worked out of the box, no screwing with anything, not even having to download wifi firmware [11:36] wifi, sound, sleep, hibernate, everything [11:36] so i'm quite impressed [11:38] i gotta stick in another stick of ram (only comes with 1G), and then maybe i'm thinking of putting in an SSD. only thing with the SSD is, it would increase my TCO by about 50%, cuz this thing was so cheap to begin with [11:38] it's not my primary laptop, so it doesn't need to be blazing fast [11:38] what's your primary?

[12:03] toddf: Some folks are trying to get FreeBSD to run on it, but they need money. [12:03] Not sure about the others. [12:03] http://www.daemonology.net/blog/2010-04-05-FreeBSD-EC2.html [12:03] mhoran: oh yeah I saw that discussion here earlier [12:04] so EC2 requires a modified kernel kindof like xen eh? [12:04] I'd imagine someone has tried to get NetBSD on there, not sure of their success. And Open, too. [12:04] I believe ec2 is xen. [12:04] Yes. [12:04] But even though FreeBSD will run on the latest Xen, it doesn't run on EC2 Xen. [12:04] arpnetworks should slowly automate VM creation processing and start competing with EC2. there is no competition in the price and quality, so why should EC2 get all the money? ;-) [12:05] toddf: yea! [12:06] hey lets all sign a petition to have arpnetworks compete with EC2, yeah, that'll take the cake [12:07] we could start a petition for tshirts [12:07] We could just make t-shirts.

I already sent an email concerning this. [17:44] have you logged in and checked ifconfig ? [17:44] hello norf [17:45] norf: did you look at your account page?

[17:49] i have not logged in to the vps yet, since i want to make sure i have my 5 ip addresses... [17:49] before i start putting things together.. [17:50] log in and check out the admin page and your ifconfig [17:50] if it's not correct, then start freaking out [17:50] alright. [17:51] norf: it's most likely all okay :) [17:51] sorry, i was just expecting a list of ip addresses assigned to my vps [17:51] in the email [17:51] you guys might want to think about that.... [17:51] norf: it usually goes like 123,124,125,126 [17:51] most people would know that :) [17:52] Ive leased dedicated machines from systeminplace, and corenetworks...they always told me what ip addresses are assigned to me when I made an order...especially the first order. [17:53] aww [17:53] norf: let us know if you didn't get all the ips you requested [17:53] alright. [17:57] yeah, ifconfig is only showing the 1 ip [17:57] ill pastebin [17:58] and rc.conf doesnt have the 5 ips set up either. [17:58] :-/ [18:00] norf - you have to do that yourself [18:00] your addresses are assigned, as described by your account pages [18:01] http://paste.uni.cc/20794 [18:01] but you have to do the allocation yourself [18:01] Yeah - that doesn't matter [18:01] go make your settings match your allocation [18:01] hmm [18:01] oh wait - it does [18:02] i can do that, but id expect a host to set up the ips i ordered to have them set up [18:02] uh - it's set up. [18:02] if you want the aliases, that's not typical [18:02] i dont see them [18:02] right [18:02] you're listening on 34 [18:02] and you have the right netmask [18:02] id expect the aliases set up.. [18:02] you expect unusually then [18:02] I'd expect them *not* [18:02] because first, it's simple [18:02] and second, it's variable [18:03] not really, ive been through a few dedi hosts a vps hosts...this is a first for me. [18:03] the hard part is that *they* allocated the range for you [18:03] that's something you can't do at all [18:04] i know that. [18:04] but i expect the ips i ordered ready to be used ... [18:05] no matter, ill do it. [18:05] seriously. edit 1 parameter, reboot. [18:05] the IPs belong to you [18:05] you're just not listening to them. :) [18:06] ... ipv4_addrs_em0=174.136.101.34-38/29 [18:06] done :) [18:06] and remove the ifconfig_em0 [18:07] <3 Randal [18:07] I *think* it's /29 [18:07] no maybe /30 [18:07] no /29 [18:07] it ity is 29is [18:07] it is [18:07] there ya go then [18:08] i see on the site, must admit, this is the first freebsd vps ive used...i usually go for dedis and use rc.conf to bring up ip addresses [18:09] can i do that still with this vps? [18:09] ive normally used freebsd jails and dedicated machines ...my first vps here.. [18:09] norf - you can do what I just said [18:10] so i cant bring the ips up with rc.conf ? [18:10] uh ... you can [18:10] geez [18:10] * RandalSchwartz gives up [18:10] ... ipv4_addrs_em0=174.136.101.34-38/29 [18:10] in place of ifconfig_em0 [18:10] seriously [18:11] sorry! ive started drinking. [18:11] if you're gonna ask questions, pay attention [18:11] then you can run 'sh /etc/netstart' afterwards, norf [18:11] so just add ipv4_addrs_em0=174.136.101.34-38/29 to rc.conf [18:11] ?

[18:56] my freebsd nfs server/media center box got dismantled due to bad wiring taking out my wifes powersupplies... [18:56] so i need to replace that [18:56] I installed Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook Edition on a new MSI Wind L1350 I got. Everything worked out of the box, _everything_. For a desktop OS, Ubuntu wins. [18:57] i would rather have debian squeeze on it. [18:57] but as i said [18:57] its my kids...i dont have to use it. [18:57] i dont like the cluttered UNR desktop. [18:58] but imust say..that UNR desktop ////fat gnome with crap added...makes the eeepc much easier to use than the stock win 7 starter that comes with it... [18:58] win 7 is not suited to a netbook...at all... [18:59] not sure win 7 is suited to anything...ive never had to use it outside of replacing it with linux on my eeepc... [18:59] yeah, i couldn't get win 7 to work at all. [19:00] win 7 lived for 5 minutes on my MSI, before getting erased by Ubuntu [19:00] it really runs like crap on the eeepc 1005hab ... [19:00] i used it to upgrade the bios...then i put UNR on it. [19:00] its slow [19:00] i think im going to strip UNR down ... [19:01] on my kids eeepc ...and go with openbox+lxpanel...or tint2 panel...like i use on my desktop. [19:01] i love openbox. [19:01] kde4 is just blasphemy. [19:02] gnome is getting just ignorantly fat...like kde4.. [19:02] but still faster.. [19:02] gtk2 = faster than qt [19:02] :/ [19:02] xfce4 is not as light as it used to be either [19:03] lxde is basically openbox with a few other apps [19:03] but its better than the above mentioned... [19:03] me...i just use openbox and all gtk2 apps... [19:03] i feel dirty if i mix qt crap into my system... [19:03] sorry, rambling. [19:04] but still... kde3.5.x is still ftw over kde4.
