***m0unds_ has quit IRC (Quit: derp) [10:03]
m0unds_ has joined #arpnetworks [10:08]

brycecLooks 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.
[12:40]
.......... (idle for 46mn)
m0undsyep, that's about the best use for it [13:27]
..... (idle for 20mn)
toeshredbrycec: Hah that's awesome. Wouldn't fly with the data center policy though :(
I guess that is precisely why it is camouflaged though.
[13:47]
bryceclol
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.
brycec shudders to imagine the hassle of cleaning up a spilled beer on raised flooring
[13:56]
m0undscoffee is bad enough
old boss liked showing off our renovated dc area and never stopped people from bringing drinks in
[13:59]
brycec:((( [14:00]
m0undsvisitor dropped some giant starbucks monstrosity on the ground and it went right under the floor
so gross
[14:00]
brycecAny equipment damaged too? [14:00]
m0undsnah, got lucky [14:01]
brycecindeed [14:01]
m0undswe 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
[14:01]
......... (idle for 41mn)
mnathanihow does archlinux deal with multi monitor setups? [14:42]
mike-burnsI assume it uses Xorg? [14:43]
brycec^ yep, standard xrandr/xorg [14:50]

BryceBotGist: "gns3server error" [15:10]
mnathaniany idea what package I might be missing to get that working? [15:10]
m0undspip install chardet? [15:11]
mnathaniI 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
[15:11]
mike-burnsVirtual 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.

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
[16:45]
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...

BryceBot<mercutio> 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. [17:27]
brycecMy missus spilled a smoothie/juice/thing on her Das Keyboard the other day :(
Always amazed at where liquids, even thick ones, can end up.
[17:40]
mercutiodamn
at least you should be able to remove keys and clean
[17:52]
brycecDid, but it's too fargone [17:53]
mercutiodamn [17:53]
brycecThe USB hub still seems to work... [17:53]
mercutiothose keyboards seemed overpriced to me :) [17:53]
brycecbut the keyboard never enumerates. [17:53]
mercutiowhat does it do when you try using it?
hmm
yeah it could take hours to try and fix i imagine
adn still get nowhere
[17:53]
brycecLiterally the keyboard doesn't even enumerate on the USB bus. Just doesn't respond to the host controller. [17:54]
mercutiowow
maybe short circuit
[17:54]
brycecLEDs light so there's power, but seems like the controller is "stuck" [17:54]
mercutioyeah 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
[17:55]
brycecwow, really that much? I paid about $100 for this one.
(and the missus is pretty much insisting on another of the same)
[17:57]
mercutiohmm my brown was about $50 US I think
make that $70 hmm
[17:58]
brycecMost MK's I've seen cost in the $75-$200 range. [17:58]
mercutioyeah
i like to be at the lower end of that
i have two ducky keyboards, and one cm storm quickfire
[17:59]
brycecI love my Ducky [17:59]
mercutioi like all 3
ok now i'm on ducky blue, from ducky red.
hopefully it stops making me make so many typos.
[17:59]
brycecI started with blacks and I prefer them to this day :) [18:00]
mercutiodamn 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.
[18:00]
brycecDucky DK9087 [18:19]
mercutiooh with the fancy lights?
i have the ones withoutlights
[18:21]
brycecYeah 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.
[18:22]
mercutioyeah 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

mnathani_arch on bare metal lenovo laptop - whats the best way to get sound working? I tried pulseaudio but no luck [19:34]
brycecmnathani_: 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)
[19:40]
***mercutio has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 276 seconds) [19:42]
mnathani[mnathani@archr61 ~]$ cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel
HDA Intel at 0xfe020000 irq 32
y
so I probably broke something
[19:53]
brycecmnathani: Does "alsamixer" (no args) show PA or the card? And if the card, does it show the controls you'd expect? [19:54]
mnathani[mnathani@archr61 ~]$ osstest
/dev/mixer: No such file or directory
[19:54]
brycec(then test with "alsamixer -c 0")
oss? what is this, 1999?
[19:55]
mnathaniworking 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

mnathani_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
