| ThistleWeb | you're right though, side by side with the flagship product made by a multi-billion-dollar corp, it really shouldn't be in the same league, let alone beating it in several examples | Oct 28 13:45 |

| DaemonFC | in fact, I'd say the DRM on the Mac is even worse | Oct 28 13:51 |
| DaemonFC | Windows will run perfectly fine on a Mac, but Apple sabotages OS X to not run on competing PCs | Oct 28 13:52 |
| DaemonFC | that alone should be an antitrust violation | Oct 28 13:52 |
| MinceR | windows won't run perfectly fine anywhere | Oct 28 13:52 |

| DaemonFC | Product Activation is just to make sure you paid, it doesn't stop you from running it on the machine you choose | Oct 28 13:53 |
| DaemonFC | and if you remove Windows from one PC, you can reactivate it on another one | Oct 28 13:53 |
| DaemonFC | well, the retail version anyway | Oct 28 13:53 |
| DaemonFC | activation just enforces the old "treat this program like a book" rule because the honor system doesn't work, obviously | Oct 28 13:54 |

| DaemonFC | the rules on the use of the software haven't actually changed all that much since the 1980s, the enforcement back then was just too crude to be effective | Oct 28 13:55 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, Microsoft's actual target with the activation thing was small system builders which would preinstall the same copy of Windows on thousands of PCs | Oct 28 13:56 |
| DaemonFC | but that's actually the ones who can bypass it the easiest by flashing the BIOS on each model with an OEM SLIC key from HP or Dell or whoever | Oct 28 13:57 |
| DaemonFC | you can do that on your home PC< but you risk destroying an expensive piece of hardware | Oct 28 13:58 |
| MinceR | i didn't mention the activation thing | Oct 28 14:00 |
| MinceR | even though it sucks | Oct 28 14:00 |
| MinceR | also, what it really does is that it leaks information to m$ that's none of their business | Oct 28 14:01 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, If you look in the EULA, it says no personal information, and that it will be kept confidential | Oct 28 14:01 |
| DaemonFC | so to do much other than statistics as a whole, it would be useless | Oct 28 14:02 |
| DaemonFC | unless you allege that they violate that part of the agreement | Oct 28 14:02 |
| DaemonFC | well, overall statistics are valuable | Oct 28 14:03 |

| tessier | schestowitz: I was looking at that nodebrain/nagios thing last night in fact. Read through the nodebrain tutorial. Not sure how I can make use of it at the moment. Probably because I do not understand its full potential. But as I run into more tricky monitoring situations I will keep it in mind. | Oct 28 22:00 |
| tessier | schestowitz: The number of technologies I am having to learn is truly frightening and I'm not sure I want to introduce yet another configuration language etc into my already quite complicated mix. | Oct 28 22:00 |
| oiaohm | tessier nodebrain is designed to be insanely flexable so you can fix false postives. Problem it comes at a huge mother of a price. | Oct 28 22:03 |
| oiaohm | Lot of learning. | Oct 28 22:03 |

| shreddar | Ay so people are here!! | Oct 28 23:07 |
| schestowitz | Yes | Oct 28 23:08 |
| shreddar | I'm beginning to been unsatisfied with my distro for weeks now. I know there are better distros out there I just want to know what distros you've been messing with. I'm thinking of going back to Sabayon or trying Gentoo. | Oct 28 23:10 |
| oiaohm | I am not a good person to ask on that. shreddar | Oct 28 23:11 |
| oiaohm | My current system core is debian but I have virtual ubuntu fedora opensuse and gentoo | Oct 28 23:12 |
| oiaohm | Not all of us stick to just using 1 distributions | Oct 28 23:12 |
| shreddar | I've noticed that. | Oct 28 23:13 |
| oiaohm | My core is debian mostly because I installed my system over 8 years ago. | Oct 28 23:13 |
| oiaohm | Cleanly. | Oct 28 23:13 |
| oiaohm | and have not bothered changing it. | Oct 28 23:13 |
| shreddar | I've seen people with Ubuntu and Sabayon. | Oct 28 23:13 |
| oiaohm | Most of the core ideas really don't change between distributions. | Oct 28 23:15 |
| oiaohm | Since 2000 more and more how distributions work is becoming the same. | Oct 28 23:15 |
| oiaohm | Before 2000 it was kinda insane. Distributions would put configurations files and libraries in different places. | Oct 28 23:16 |
| *jono (n=jono@ubuntu/member/jono) has joined #boycottnovell | Oct 28 23:16 | |
| shreddar | I just want something that has good hardware detection but won't break suddenly because of a update. | Oct 28 23:16 |
| shreddar | Also, I want to be about to easily check my harddisk usage from kde4. (I don't know if this is ubuntu or KDE4) | Oct 28 23:16 |
| shreddar | The last time I used Sabayon I don't think I had any update problems but I think I've heard it can eventually get errors that way too. | Oct 28 23:20 |
| cubezzz | fedora for me | Oct 28 23:20 |
| cubezzz | or LFS or embedix | Oct 28 23:21 |
| oiaohm | If you are using logcal volume management like me proper hardisk usage montering is broken in places. | Oct 28 23:21 |
| oiaohm | With KDE 4. | Oct 28 23:23 |
| oiaohm | shreddar: LVM? | Oct 28 23:23 |

| phIRCe-local | Title: YouTube - Secrets of World War I (2 of 5) .::. Size~: 135.38 KB | Oct 28 23:26 |
| shreddar | Can LVM do that? | Oct 28 23:27 |
| oiaohm | LVM is logical volumen management are you using that. | Oct 28 23:28 |

| oiaohm | If you are not using lvm you can use a desktop widget to monitor disk usage under kde. | Oct 28 23:29 |
| shreddar | Sorry pressed [Backspace] by accident | Oct 28 23:30 |
| oiaohm | Also the mount manger. | Oct 28 23:30 |
| *Balrog_ (n=Balrog@pool-173-59-71-55.phlapa.east.verizon.net) has joined #boycottnovell | Oct 28 23:30 | |
| oiaohm | But if your system is lvm they don't work. | Oct 28 23:30 |
| shreddar | I don't think it's installed It's not check in the synaptic pakage manager | Oct 28 23:30 |
| oiaohm | Its still something on the KDE fix list shreddar | Oct 28 23:30 |
| oiaohm | lvm is not a program its a partitiioning system shreddar | Oct 28 23:31 |
| shreddar | lvm2 shows up in the package manager | Oct 28 23:31 |
| shreddar | It's not checked though. Are you saying it's a bug? | Oct 28 23:32 |
| oiaohm | lvm2 are management tools for lvm | Oct 28 23:33 |
| oiaohm | The ubuntu installer and most moden Linuxs can isntall in lvm mode. | Oct 28 23:33 |
| shreddar | How do I find out if my system is using LVM | Oct 28 23:33 |
| shreddar | ? | Oct 28 23:33 |
| oiaohm | df in terminal. | Oct 28 23:33 |
| oiaohm | And you will see mounts like /dev/mapper/<something> | Oct 28 23:34 |
| oiaohm | Instead of like /dev/sd or /dev/hd | Oct 28 23:34 |
| shreddar | No it's /dev/sd | Oct 28 23:35 |
| oiaohm | Ok so desktop widget should work with kde 4.3 | Oct 28 23:35 |
| oiaohm | Yes slightly different way of getting the same inforamtion shreddar | Oct 28 23:36 |
| shreddar | I have KDE 4.2.2 but that's okay I think dolphin sort of does it I look at properties. | Oct 28 23:39 |
| shreddar | But I still would like a overview to see all of my partitions and the freespace I have in them. | Oct 28 23:40 |
| shreddar | I lets ubuntu partition my drive (they suggested I do it but I normally just have a single one) so now I don't remember what all my partitions are. | Oct 28 23:45 |
| oiaohm | The overview is a desktop widget just does not support lvm yet. I don't know of KDE 4.2.2 had the widget. | Oct 28 23:48 |
| *magentar has quit (Remote closed the connection) | Oct 28 23:48 | |

| shreddar | Ok I have the widget "System monitor - Hard disk" | Oct 28 23:51 |
| shreddar | I think that does it but it just show root and local disk. | Oct 28 23:52 |
| shreddar | "local disk" is windows | Oct 28 23:52 |
| shreddar | I'm pretty sure I have a /swap partition | Oct 28 23:53 |
| shreddar | And I think /home is a partition too. | Oct 28 23:54 |
| schestowitz | Hey... | Oct 28 23:56 |
| schestowitz | I've just posted a tonnage of links | Oct 28 23:56 |
| schestowitz | I'll make some posts now. WIndows exec has just quit! | Oct 28 23:56 |
| shreddar | That reminds me the reason I've been think even more about changin distros is because of the new Ubuntu 9.10. | Oct 28 23:57 |
| shreddar | I can wait a day for Ubuntu 9.10 or try Sabayon 5 now. | Oct 28 23:58 |
| shreddar | Or try Gentoo | Oct 28 23:58 |
| shreddar | Or 1236 less known distros | Oct 28 23:59 |
