up_the_irons: centos's fastestmirror is kind of unreliable i think it tries lots in parallel both of those other chosen ones are pretty close yeah even better than accessing BIOS over serial -> Playing tetris before boot! http://www.coreboot.org/File:Coreboot_libpayload_tint.png does coreboot work on kvm? i imagine it should be able to it works with qemu ahh it should work then i was really interested in the idea of coreboot in it's previous name but never had a suitable motherboard.. dell poweredge 1850 is wip hmm not that i'd want to run one of those at home but if drac works with coreboot.. http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTA4Mjg wow google is doing sandybridge in coreboot yeah Fortunately Google is going with Coreboot as opposed to dealing with the crippling UEFI situation on Linux. that's wonderful news i'd rather coreboot progress than uefi that said uefi isn't a terrible step what i hate about recent computers, is ahci still takes ages to scan hard-drives in linux often the parallel scanning gets disabled i'd rather an option to enable it but if it just does that scan once it's not nearly as bad. finally got the fucking new box to pass traffic to VMs.. shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit this is me: # We want VLAN tagged packets to be passed to interfaces of a bridge # The default appears to be 1 on Jaunty, but 0 on Lucid net.bridge.bridge-nf-filter-vlan-tagged = 1 fml every time i migrate a VM to a new host, I am still amazed it's like transplanting a brain into a whole new person this is old, but i'm finding it quite interesting: http://serverfault.com/questions/27397/sync-lvm-snapshots-to-backup-server anyone have experience with ddsnap or lvmsync ? I dislike ubuntu for that. defaults constantly changing and no, but I wish I had. I've only needed LVM snapshots up_the_irons: I regularly see arpnetworks for all 3, base, updates, extras. up_the_irons: as for the move to kvr02.. I don't fault you or ARP in any way. if you verified the configs are the same, same kvm/libvirt and such, and others were able to install successfully, I would see no reason to assume it's something specific to a host. with that said, I'd be interested in seeing if you created a new centos6.3 guest on kvr13.. if it'd actually work or if it was somehow isolated to my vps/account/$other Anyone know of a good place to test up and down speeds along with general latency? arenlor: speakeasy speedtest? fink: Cool thanks. Should help some. jpalmer: yeah, once i get the templates ready i will try it on kvr13 :) up_the_irons: wiki link in topic should be removed ya? milki: i'm gonna put it back up soon oo hot off the press, some coupon codes for August: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1183050 whoa, looks like they took it down, wth STOP SPAMMING OK, maybe this one will last: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1183053 am I missing something, or is "special #1" just the stock plan ;) of course most of us prob already have accounts :) oh you can do that? i just want a higher gig cap, not that i go over it but for peace of mind and all no, you can't do that :P mm, adobe are doing an open source font open source fonts tend to suck adobe products suck more. well a font either works or doesn't work too late to add WHTBONUS20? ;) what coupon? o scrolled up i need an account? kraigu: I don't see any disclaimer about it being for new customers only! I want WHTBONUS20 too! :P what I really want, is to hit the florida powerball tonight. if I get the 320million, I'm buying my own server at ARP :P jpalmer: can you get me one too fink: sure, why not. I'll just pay Garry to quit his job, and work for ARP fulltime. automate some things.. and get everyone in here a dedicated server :P woo! lol fink: let me warn you, I spent a whole $2, to try for the 360m, so.. I wouldn't get my hopes up TOO high. ;) haha I honestly don't think I'd go nuts if I won big money. I enjoy my job, so I wouldn't quit.. (I might buy the company though!) I wouldn't buy some insane car or house.. I'd probably build a new barn though.. that'd be about $40,000. and maybe get my existing house painted. o, limit 1 coupon -.- jpalmer: i have sooo many investments opportunities for you, when you hit the jackpot jpalmer: it's a deal! how do you get dovecot2 to listen on a particular interface? keep getting: doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /usr/local/etc/dovecot/local.conf line 57: Unknown setting: listen so it's not "listen"…apparently up_the_irons, would it be possible to add WHTBONUS20 to my existing VPS or would I have to order a whole new VPS? jdoe: it is a long running special now, so it may seem stock at this point :) jpalmer: it is not just for new customers (hence no disclamer), but it is for new orders jpalmer: oh and for the record, i *am* working on this fulltime; quit my job about 45 days ago :) Now we have updated templates (FreeBSD/ OpenBSD) and I've been doing quite a bit of work on the new dedicated server line (sold two through word of mouth) cool im guessing you dea with standard supermicro hardware? mnathani: the coupons apply to new orders only can I cancel my current VPS and order with the new coupon? i'm not made of hardware, guys... ;) hahaha
