_Hicham_ | schestowitz : I like openSUSE GNOME | Nov 13 00:02 |
_Hicham_ | very optimized distro | Nov 13 00:02 |

schestowitz | I don't know if we should say anything about opensuse, maybe just recommend some other distros as a way of making a statement | Nov 13 00:04 |

schestowitz | I don't want to flog gnome | Nov 13 00:05 |
_Hicham_ | schestowitz : gnome-shell maybe | Nov 13 00:06 |
Will__ | schestowitz: opensuse will be talked up b/c it has historically been the top KDE distro, but Mandriva is right up there with it there. | Nov 13 00:06 |

*schestowitz searches for videos | Nov 13 00:06 | |
_Hicham_ | both of them are using GTK tools | Nov 13 00:06 |
_Hicham_ | mandriva's tools are all GTK ones | Nov 13 00:06 |
_Hicham_ | SUSE's Yast did have only a GTK UI | Nov 13 00:07 |

ender2070 | _Hicham_ my suse 5.3 disks say otherwise | Nov 13 00:10 |
_Hicham_ | 11.2 is another thing | Nov 13 00:10 |
_Hicham_ | it is a great release | Nov 13 00:10 |
schestowitz | Ew... kde3... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxb1PaQP9vs | Nov 13 00:10 |
_Hicham_ | very optimized | Nov 13 00:11 |
_Hicham_ | schestowitz : are u using nepomuk ? | Nov 13 00:11 |
ender2070 | we should fork kde 2.x and backport | Nov 13 00:11 |
schestowitz | Using kde3 is an abomination after kde4 | Nov 13 00:11 |
schestowitz | _Hicham_: nope, not yet | Nov 13 00:11 |

schestowitz | Will__: I use it right now | Nov 13 00:14 |
shreddar | first they need to have firefox on their by default. Next they should make KGTK work. | Nov 13 00:14 |
_Hicham_ | Firefox supports GnomeShell | Nov 13 00:14 |
shreddar | there | Nov 13 00:14 |
_Hicham_ | I just compiled a fresh Firefox-3.6b2 | Nov 13 00:15 |
_Hicham_ | seems working great | Nov 13 00:15 |
Will__ | schestowitz: then how do you think Mandriva compares to Kubuntu? | Nov 13 00:15 |
_Hicham_ | I think I am gonna update my system's xulrunner | Nov 13 00:15 |
shreddar | They should actively maintain KGTK until there is a working qt port of firefox. | Nov 13 00:17 |
ender2070 | I like Fedora the most, im using 12 right now | Nov 13 00:18 |
shreddar | I've never used Redhat/Fedora how's it different from other binary distros like SUSE and Mandriva? | Nov 13 00:20 |
_Hicham_ | it is the most cutting edge in the linux world | Nov 13 00:21 |
schestowitz | Will__: I'd need to try kde4 in Mandriva | Nov 13 00:21 |
schestowitz | Based on reviews, it's good | Nov 13 00:21 |
shreddar | _Hicham_ specifically what is different with Fedora? | Nov 13 00:22 |
_Hicham_ | shreddar : it sticks more to upstream, and it contributes more to it | Nov 13 00:24 |
ender2070 | shreddar - the software is also closer to the latest version | Nov 13 00:24 |
_Hicham_ | the software is most of the time the latest version | Nov 13 00:25 |
_Hicham_ | if not the development one | Nov 13 00:25 |

schestowitz | So it has more than 1 egg in its basket | Nov 13 03:11 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, I am not thrilled with Windows 7 | Nov 13 03:11 |
schestowitz | New Microsoft branch in Provo, next to Novell's. | Nov 13 03:11 |
DaemonFC | seems like a hillbilly duct tape repair to Vista | Nov 13 03:12 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC: yes | Nov 13 03:12 |
schestowitz | Predictable | Nov 13 03:12 |
_Hicham_ | Ubuntu and Mandriva are the only distros eligible to be installed by default on new PCs | Nov 13 03:12 |
schestowitz | All the Windows fans have it | Nov 13 03:12 |
schestowitz | The n00bs have not used it yet | Nov 13 03:12 |
schestowitz | When they get a new PC they might | Nov 13 03:12 |
schestowitz | The printer and stuff won't work properly | Nov 13 03:12 |
schestowitz | _Hicham_: or Mint | Nov 13 03:12 |
schestowitz | Being a derivative really, but still... | Nov 13 03:13 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, It seems to have all the problems of Vista and very few actual improvements | Nov 13 03:13 |
_Hicham_ | schestowitz : Mint or Ubuntu are not as configurable as Mandriva | Nov 13 03:13 |
DaemonFC | there are a few, but there's at least as many regressions | Nov 13 03:13 |
_Hicham_ | MCC is really a leader | Nov 13 03:13 |
schestowitz | _Hicham_: how so? | Nov 13 03:13 |
schestowitz | No central control like Mandriva's gtk-based? | Nov 13 03:13 |
_Hicham_ | yes | Nov 13 03:14 |
_Hicham_ | central control is essential | Nov 13 03:14 |
schestowitz | Vista 7 is a muted issue now | Nov 13 03:14 |
schestowitz | Only if I search for it I find coverage | Nov 13 03:14 |
schestowitz | Otherwise it's treated like old news | Nov 13 03:14 |
schestowitz | Even Vista hype lasted longer in Feb-June 2007 | Nov 13 03:14 |
schestowitz | _Hicham_: what about yast2? No good? | Nov 13 03:15 |
_Hicham_ | they still need to write drak-schestowitz | Nov 13 03:15 |
schestowitz | It was good even in 8.1 | Nov 13 03:15 |
_Hicham_ | schestowitz : yast2 software installer becomes slow with multiple repos | Nov 13 03:15 |
_Hicham_ | and it takes forever to load | Nov 13 03:15 |
_Hicham_ | other than that, it is great | Nov 13 03:16 |
ThistleWeb | to a certain degree you have to feel sorry for MS, no matter what they do, they fail. Usually if a company has a bad patch, they at least pick up a few minor wins to help kickstart them and give them hope that things will get better | Nov 13 03:16 |
_Hicham_ | the last patch | Nov 13 03:16 |
_Hicham_ | MS vs FOSS | Nov 13 03:16 |
ThistleWeb | MS seem to be like a football team plummeting down the league with little hope of slowing the decent | Nov 13 03:16 |
ThistleWeb | a bit like Hull | Nov 13 03:16 |
ThistleWeb | lol, though Hull at least got a win the other week | Nov 13 03:17 |
ThistleWeb | 3rd win all year | Nov 13 03:17 |
_Hicham_ | schestowitz : why not use openSUSE ? | Nov 13 03:18 |
ThistleWeb | of course it's entirely self inflicted | Nov 13 03:18 |
schestowitz | _Hicham_: it helps Novell | Nov 13 03:18 |
schestowitz | Don't. | Nov 13 03:18 |
schestowitz | Try other distros and report back | Nov 13 03:18 |
_Hicham_ | Novell still helps kernel | Nov 13 03:19 |
schestowitz | OpenSUSE no longer has deivatives other than studio mixes, I think | Nov 13 03:19 |
_Hicham_ | and GNOME | Nov 13 03:19 |
schestowitz | Caixa Magica moved to Mandriva base | Nov 13 03:19 |
schestowitz | _Hicham_: if Novell loses its market share, Red Hat will gain it and pay those people | Nov 13 03:19 |
schestowitz | It's zero-sum in a way | Nov 13 03:19 |
_Hicham_ | RedHat already has the market | Nov 13 03:20 |
_Hicham_ | RedHat is trying to attract Kraig Kroah Hartman | Nov 13 03:23 |
_Hicham_ | but this guy is a true SUSE lover | Nov 13 03:23 |
_Hicham_ | he is the one to have started openSUSE project | Nov 13 03:24 |
ender2070 | hartman kicks ass | Nov 13 03:24 |

ender2070 | ive watched a few of his linux talks | Nov 13 03:25 |
ender2070 | funny guy | Nov 13 03:25 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, I'm ditching Comcast | Nov 13 03:25 |
DaemonFC | I've made up my mind about that | Nov 13 03:26 |
_Hicham_ | ender2070 : he is the original udev writer | Nov 13 03:26 |
DaemonFC | I'll probably be going back to AT&T though | Nov 13 03:26 |
ender2070 | Ballmer is a wackjob | Nov 13 03:26 |
_Hicham_ | Novell also started the NetworkManager project | Nov 13 03:26 |

Diablo-D3 | _what_ proprietary API? | Nov 13 03:34 |
_Hicham_ | Diablo-D3 : I packaged some java stuff in Fedora, and I noticed that the compiler gives me a lot of warnings about proprietary APIs | Nov 13 03:36 |
_Hicham_ | I googled for them but I didn't find any replacement | Nov 13 03:37 |
_Hicham_ | packages who depend on that api won't be jdk-1.7 compatible | Nov 13 03:37 |
Diablo-D3 | _Hicham_: which java? | Nov 13 03:42 |
Diablo-D3 | because openjdk6 probably doesnt include them | Nov 13 03:42 |
Diablo-D3 | which is what everyone uses on linux | Nov 13 03:42 |
_Hicham_ | Diablo-D3 : openjdk of course | Nov 13 03:42 |
_Hicham_ | i can't package stuff that depend on proprietary jdk | Nov 13 03:43 |
Diablo-D3 | I dont even know what this proprietary api si | Nov 13 03:43 |
Diablo-D3 | the sooner you start spouting class names the sooner I can tell you no one uses it | Nov 13 03:43 |

Diablo-D3 | Balrog_: already has | Nov 13 03:46 |

Diablo-D3 | remember, openjdk6 is forked off of an old version of 7 | Nov 13 03:46 |
_Hicham_ | Diablo-D3 : so u can help me deleting the proprietary api ? | Nov 13 03:47 |
Diablo-D3 | _Hicham_: easy, use 7. | Nov 13 03:47 |
Diablo-D3 | seriously, quit using 6 | Nov 13 03:47 |
Diablo-D3 | its outdated | Nov 13 03:47 |
_Hicham_ | Diablo-D3 : they won't work | Nov 13 03:47 |
Diablo-D3 | _Hicham_: also | Nov 13 03:47 |
Diablo-D3 | UrlUtil is not part of the API | Nov 13 03:47 |

Diablo-D3 | so quit trying to claim it is | Nov 13 03:47 |

Diablo-D3 | _Hicham_: also, those warnings pop up on legacy files | Nov 13 03:48 |
Diablo-D3 | its not "proprietary" | Nov 13 03:48 |
Diablo-D3 | its just not documented | Nov 13 03:48 |

Diablo-D3 | its yet again a case of people who cant read, or refuse to | Nov 13 03:49 |
Diablo-D3 | the warning pops up when you use a file that isnt properly documented | Nov 13 03:49 |

schestowitz | "Good news (but could be better): The Times managed to get its hands on the tax filings for Goldman Sachs Foundation today. (We reported on the previous year's charitable donations a couple of weeks ago, as you may recall.) According to the filing (which "is as thick as a phone book"), the firm has set aside another $200 million to give away to charity and the foundation now has a total of $404 million in assets. " | Nov 13 09:41 |
schestowitz | "Unfortunately, it isn't giving much of it away. (It doled out $12 million in 2007 and another $22 million in 2008.) And it's still a drop in the bucket compared to what the bank will be paying out in bonuses: "[T]he money allotted for its foundation is dwarfed by the sums that will be doled out to its bankers. In the first nine months of this year, the firm set aside about $17 billion for bonuses and other compensation."" | Nov 13 09:41 |
fewa | Gates is in the first part: developing a personality/nationalist cult | Nov 13 09:41 |
cubezzz | there's less brainwashing now | Nov 13 09:41 |
schestowitz | fewa: well, they pay many newspapers for it | Nov 13 09:41 |
fewa | nationalism has been turned into "corporate responsibility/loyalty" | Nov 13 09:41 |
schestowitz | This reminds me of how in some fascist countries they set up large sculptures of leaders | Nov 13 09:41 |

cubezzz | mainly yes | Nov 13 09:42 |

cubezzz | it's just marketing | Nov 13 09:46 |

fewa | schestowitz, as a method of control, Apple's monopolies are much more critical that its "cult" | Nov 13 09:46 |
schestowitz | People should really stop rallying around people and corporations | Nov 13 09:46 |
MinceR | indeed | Nov 13 09:46 |
cubezzz | as one becomes more knowledgeable the marketing becomes ineffective | Nov 13 09:46 |
MinceR | though rallying around people instead of corporations would be a good start, imo. | Nov 13 09:46 |
fewa | people gain resistance | Nov 13 09:47 |
fewa | its like pesticides | Nov 13 09:47 |
schestowitz | MinceR: I was referring to extreme capitalists | Nov 13 09:47 |
schestowitz | Like Icahn and other gangsters | Nov 13 09:47 |
cubezzz | Gates has a kind of illness I guess | Nov 13 09:47 |
cubezzz | always wanting more control | Nov 13 09:47 |
fewa | schestowitz, state-corporate mobsters | Nov 13 09:47 |
fewa | schestowitz, "pure capitalists" cant keep control without a strong state | Nov 13 09:48 |

cubezzz | schestowitz, you could say "most people don't look at source code" too | Nov 13 09:58 |
fewa | And a issue strikingly more poinent, and asking for critical action now, reversing the Bush-era programs of "State Security" and citizen as prisionier | Nov 13 09:59 |
cubezzz | but the point is they _can_ if they choose | Nov 13 09:59 |
fewa | in regards to the more restricted US-Canadian border | Nov 13 09:59 |
cubezzz | apathy is hard to fight | Nov 13 09:59 |

fewa | and evaders of drafts | Nov 13 10:00 |

cubezzz | fewa, I'm not sure about the rules of that | Nov 13 10:00 |
cubezzz | I guess it would be up to immigration? | Nov 13 10:00 |
fewa | there was a Federal resolution that Canada would extradite anyone evading a draft | Nov 13 10:00 |

oiaohm | CP/M is the predecor to DR Dos cubezzz | Nov 13 11:42 |
cubezzz | it took Stallman to really break the pattern | Nov 13 11:42 |
oiaohm | BSD's have been around for a long time. | Nov 13 11:43 |
oiaohm | Stallman licence changed things. | Nov 13 11:43 |
cubezzz | BSD was an important step yes | Nov 13 11:43 |
oiaohm | BSD vs Novell was also a important step. | Nov 13 11:44 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, DR died in 1991 a long time ago | Nov 13 11:44 |
oiaohm | Proving copyleaf licences were valid. | Nov 13 11:44 |
oiaohm | So allowing Stallman to expand on that. | Nov 13 11:44 |
cubezzz | the mistake I made was not getting into Linux earlier | Nov 13 11:45 |
cubezzz | went to Windows 95 after Commodore died :-/ | Nov 13 11:46 |

cubezzz | some Amiga guys tried to get AmigaDOS on Zaurus | Nov 13 11:47 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: I would say not. I was in Linux early it was not fun. | Nov 13 11:47 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, yeah | Nov 13 11:48 |
cubezzz | how early though? | Nov 13 11:48 |
oiaohm | 1994 | Nov 13 11:48 |
oiaohm | After about 5 years on BSD. | Nov 13 11:48 |
cubezzz | yeah I tried Darkstar 0.9X back in 1994 | Nov 13 11:48 |
oiaohm | Yes finding i386 class hardware to run it was hell. | Nov 13 11:49 |
oiaohm | The bsd. | Nov 13 11:49 |
cubezzz | well you're going back to 1989, and 386's were very expensive | Nov 13 11:49 |
cubezzz | Unix System V wasn't bad | Nov 13 11:49 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, I think my problem was getting a cdrom to work | Nov 13 11:50 |
cubezzz | re: Linux | Nov 13 11:50 |
cubezzz | in 1988 we had SCO Unix V, and before that Xenix | Nov 13 11:51 |
-BNc/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] One of my fav vids I'm sure many can relate to: http://tinyurl.com/dfvkyc It would make a great ad for Microsoft IMO #microsoft #windows #xp | Nov 13 11:51 | |
oiaohm | Yep sound card connected cdroms were fun cubezzz | Nov 13 11:53 |
cubezzz | I knew Windows was crap in the 80's, my opinion is still the same | Nov 13 11:54 |
cubezzz | I have to say modern GNU/Linux is the best | Nov 13 11:55 |
oiaohm | Depends on what you are doing. | Nov 13 11:56 |
oiaohm | At least Linux appears to be heading in the right direction. | Nov 13 11:56 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, I can't think of anything better really | Nov 13 11:57 |
cubezzz | it's not perfect but... it's the best so far, except for maybe Solaris | Nov 13 11:57 |
cubezzz | I mean they are running Linux on mainframes, desktops, PDAs | Nov 13 11:58 |
cubezzz | what else has that versatility? | Nov 13 11:58 |
oiaohm | Versatily Linux has in spades. | Nov 13 11:59 |
oiaohm | Next few years feature wise it should close up on everything else. | Nov 13 12:00 |

oiaohm | No _Hicham_ | Nov 13 14:36 |
_Hicham_ | hi oiaohm | Nov 13 14:36 |
oiaohm | At one point I though anti-virus viruses were a solution to. | Nov 13 14:36 |
_Hicham_ | that is why Mono is created, to ease the creation of viruses | Nov 13 14:36 |
oiaohm | A virus even with the best ideas can nuke systems off face of earth. | Nov 13 14:36 |
schestowitz | _Hicham_: you can't write a worm for a worm | Nov 13 14:36 |
oiaohm | You can schestowitz | Nov 13 14:37 |

_Hicham_ | oiaohm : what linux viruses ? | Nov 13 14:38 |
schestowitz | Besides, _Hicham_, that parasite called mono found a new host, iPhone and VS | Nov 13 14:38 |
oiaohm | They exist but extreamly rare. | Nov 13 14:38 |
oiaohm | Most use pure syscalls to detect the OS and alter there code correctly. | Nov 13 14:38 |
oiaohm | Mostly used by data thiefs. | Nov 13 14:38 |
oiaohm | .Net is a posion to closed source coders. Most have not worked that out yet. | Nov 13 14:41 |
oiaohm | Have you ever tried decompliers on .net byte code _Hicham_ | Nov 13 14:42 |
oiaohm | .Net is also a posion to OS's like Linux due to its design not really being compadible. | Nov 13 14:43 |
cubezzz | I will never use .net | Nov 13 14:45 |
oiaohm | Name the goals of .net cubezzz. MS did state them a long time ago. | Nov 13 14:46 |
oiaohm | One was to allow code to be audited. | Nov 13 14:46 |
*amarsh04 has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) | Nov 13 14:46 | |
oiaohm | Next was cpu netural. | Nov 13 14:47 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, I'm going on instinct mostly | Nov 13 14:47 |
oiaohm | Both things MS needs to stay live in future. | Nov 13 14:47 |
oiaohm | It explains why MS is pushing patents. | Nov 13 14:47 |
cubezzz | I figured it was Microsoft's attempt to replace Java with there own creation | Nov 13 14:47 |
oiaohm | If nothing is secret any more due to what they had to do with .net | Nov 13 14:47 |
oiaohm | They need patents. | Nov 13 14:48 |
oiaohm | Not exactly cubezzz | Nov 13 14:48 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, those patents are meaningless outside of the USA | Nov 13 14:48 |
oiaohm | If they were replacing just java why include pointer support. | Nov 13 14:48 |
cubezzz | one day Microsoft is going to wake up in a world hostile to it | Nov 13 14:48 |
oiaohm | Pointer support is required to do drivers. | Nov 13 14:48 |
oiaohm | Basically MS is double crossing everyone. | Nov 13 14:49 |
oiaohm | With .net and most people supporting it are too dumb to know it. | Nov 13 14:49 |

cubezzz | _Hicham_, yes, those boxes need less maintainance | Nov 13 14:54 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, I mean the TV part stops working | Nov 13 14:54 |
cubezzz | less maintainance = save money | Nov 13 14:54 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: does it come back on after cooling down it still can be the temp sencor. | Nov 13 14:55 |

cubezzz | _Hicham_, no, I wasn't asked to get ATI all in wonders working 100% under Linux | Nov 13 14:57 |
cubezzz | so the drivers were reloaded for XP | Nov 13 14:57 |
_Hicham_ | ah, I see | Nov 13 14:57 |
cubezzz | but those machines all dual-boot | Nov 13 14:58 |
_Hicham_ | is it working in linux by the way? | Nov 13 14:58 |
cubezzz | we never really tried it | Nov 13 14:58 |
cubezzz | under Linux I use Hauppage for tv tuner | Nov 13 14:58 |
cubezzz | or pchdtv | Nov 13 14:58 |
_Hicham_ | oiaohm : do u have a linux worm ? | Nov 13 14:58 |
oiaohm | I have collected all different kinds of viruses over the years _Hicham_ | Nov 13 14:59 |
_Hicham_ | oiaohm : do u have the sources ? | Nov 13 14:59 |
cubezzz | I keep a file on crackers/ bad hackers | Nov 13 14:59 |
oiaohm | Most Linux viruses are useless in 6 months since the exploit they use is gone. | Nov 13 14:59 |
_Hicham_ | 6 months ? | Nov 13 15:00 |
_Hicham_ | that is too much | Nov 13 15:00 |
oiaohm | That is due to people lagging on updates _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:00 |
_Hicham_ | and how much do the updates take ? | Nov 13 15:00 |
*amarsh04_ is now known as amarsh04 | Nov 13 15:00 | |
oiaohm | compare that to most windows viruses that have a active life of about 3 years its good. | Nov 13 15:00 |
cubezzz | ha, I've never seen a successful exploit | Nov 13 15:01 |
oiaohm | Few recently on ssh cubezzz. But that was partly stupidity leaving it exposed to the web. | Nov 13 15:02 |
_Hicham_ | oiaohm : privilegies escalation is the most dangerous | Nov 13 15:02 |
oiaohm | Not really _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:02 |
_Hicham_ | oiaohm : the debian ssl thing ? | Nov 13 15:03 |
oiaohm | privilegies escalation is useless if you cannot get in the system in the first place. | Nov 13 15:03 |
cubezzz | yes | Nov 13 15:03 |
_Hicham_ | oiaohm : well u can with a buffer overflow, in some ways | Nov 13 15:03 |
_Hicham_ | like what happens in firefox from time to time | Nov 13 15:04 |
oiaohm | Most dangerous is if they can get in and see around system and work out way of tricking user if you cannot privilege escalation. | Nov 13 15:04 |
cubezzz | only thing I worry about is denial of service type attacks | Nov 13 15:04 |
oiaohm | Firefox is not much of a risk if you have it in a selinux sandbox _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:04 |
oiaohm | And never had the one kernel value set low. | Nov 13 15:04 |
PeterKraus | hmm, i am amazed at linux device support... | Nov 13 15:05 |
PeterKraus | i've recently exchanged my wireless card | Nov 13 15:05 |
PeterKraus | it literally just works | Nov 13 15:05 |
_Hicham_ | oiaohm : selinux is paranoiac | Nov 13 15:05 |
_Hicham_ | oiaohm : i disable it most of the time | Nov 13 15:05 |
oiaohm | I have selinux running permissive most of the time. | Nov 13 15:05 |
oiaohm | But I have it wrapped around items that have recorod of bad trouble. | Nov 13 15:06 |
oiaohm | Like firefox _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:06 |
oiaohm | Other LSM really don't provide a working sandbox feature yet. | Nov 13 15:06 |
_Hicham_ | what about tomoyo ? | Nov 13 15:07 |
oiaohm | Does not have a sandbox feature. | Nov 13 15:07 |
oiaohm | selinux sandbox reaches all the way up threw X11 _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:07 |
_Hicham_ | so it is fully usable | Nov 13 15:08 |
_Hicham_ | *is not | Nov 13 15:08 |
_Hicham_ | oiaohm : and AppArmor ? | Nov 13 15:08 |
oiaohm | AppArmor also missing it. | Nov 13 15:08 |
oiaohm | And only if you are using a recent patch does it even work. | Nov 13 15:08 |
_Hicham_ | oiaohm : they why Ubuntu ships AppArmor ? | Nov 13 15:08 |
oiaohm | Don't know. it only got to workable in the last 6 months. | Nov 13 15:09 |
oiaohm | Before that you could trick it into letting applications go where ever. | Nov 13 15:09 |
oiaohm | The issue of not using a peer reviewed LSM. | Nov 13 15:09 |
_Hicham_ | is Novell paying them ? | Nov 13 15:10 |
oiaohm | I think its like the reason why Ubuntu use pulseaudio. | Nov 13 15:10 |
oiaohm | If they have users on it developers will have to fix it. | Nov 13 15:10 |
oiaohm | There is no other logic to what Ubuntu does with some of these down right scary bits of software. | Nov 13 15:11 |
_Hicham_ | Ubuntu uses pulseaudio because it have been tested by Fedora | Nov 13 15:11 |
oiaohm | LOL | Nov 13 15:11 |
oiaohm | Fedora is a development OS. | Nov 13 15:11 |
oiaohm | And its bugzilla has bug after bug about Pulseaudio. | Nov 13 15:11 |
_Hicham_ | but for AppArmor, i think that Novell bribes them | Nov 13 15:11 |
_Hicham_ | oiaohm : I don't have any trouble with pulseaudio | Nov 13 15:12 |
oiaohm | So if that is the case Ubuntu is incompetent over Pulseaudio | Nov 13 15:12 |
_Hicham_ | and Fedora have been always stable for me | Nov 13 15:12 |
oiaohm | Particular applications have trouble with it _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:12 |
_Hicham_ | oiaohm : give me an example | Nov 13 15:12 |
_Hicham_ | not an old app | Nov 13 15:12 |
_Hicham_ | a recent one | Nov 13 15:12 |
oiaohm | Jack audio. | Nov 13 15:13 |
schestowitz | PeterKraus: yes, I never had issues. Haven't had for years with hardware. | Nov 13 15:13 |
PeterKraus | yup | Nov 13 15:13 |
PeterKraus | i'm thinking about getting a printer now | Nov 13 15:13 |
PeterKraus | btw, back to E. there's couple of things i didn't like about KDE4, but i'm just too picky | Nov 13 15:14 |
oiaohm | _Hicham_: two sound servers hit. Even worse if you feed jack audio alsa out into pulse. | Nov 13 15:14 |
PeterKraus | still using dolphin, k3b, qtcurve themes though | Nov 13 15:14 |
_Hicham_ | oiaohm : is it opensource ? | Nov 13 15:14 |
oiaohm | jackaudio is opensource _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:14 |
oiaohm | jackaudio is specialist for music production. | Nov 13 15:14 |
_Hicham_ | if i understand well it is a sound server too | Nov 13 15:15 |
oiaohm | Then gstreamer realtime support features don't work under pulse. | Nov 13 15:15 |
PeterKraus | lol: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=NzY5Ng | Nov 13 15:15 |
phIRCe-local | Title: [Phoronix] Intel & AMD Decide To Stop Fighting .::. Size~: 15.26 KB | Nov 13 15:15 |
oiaohm | Lot of minor damages _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:15 |
_Hicham_ | they should support pulseaudio | Nov 13 15:16 |
_Hicham_ | pulseaudio now is used everywhere | Nov 13 15:16 |
oiaohm | Bad logic. _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:16 |
_Hicham_ | it is the future of linux sound system | Nov 13 15:16 |
oiaohm | Gstreamer does to as good as the interfaces pulse provides. | Nov 13 15:16 |
oiaohm | No the future is pulseaudio and jack merged _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:16 |
_Hicham_ | Gstreamer isn't finished yet | Nov 13 15:17 |
oiaohm | With a completely new interface to deal with. | Nov 13 15:17 |
_Hicham_ | oiaohm : I use Gstreamer too, never had a problem with sound | Nov 13 15:17 |
oiaohm | Are you using it for real time audio editing _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:17 |
oiaohm | This is where house comes down big time _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:17 |
_Hicham_ | oiaohm : just for listening to music | Nov 13 15:18 |
oiaohm | Some games running under wine expect that kind of responsiveness as well. | Nov 13 15:18 |
_Hicham_ | I ve used exaile player | Nov 13 15:18 |
oiaohm | Heck some old games under Linux also expect that kind of responsiveness. | Nov 13 15:18 |
_Hicham_ | old games should be patched to use pulse | Nov 13 15:19 |
oiaohm | So we should patch again for the next sound server as well _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:19 |
_Hicham_ | oiaohm : no, I hope that pulseaudio will be the final one | Nov 13 15:20 |
oiaohm | Pulseaudio is not going to be the last one we know that _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:20 |
oiaohm | It design does not cover everything the sound server need to do _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:20 |
_Hicham_ | then let just do with plugins | Nov 13 15:20 |
oiaohm | Nop core design is wrong _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:20 |
oiaohm | Plugins cannot cure that. | Nov 13 15:20 |
_Hicham_ | so Jack have a better design ? | Nov 13 15:21 |
oiaohm | They should have started with older more mature jackaudio. | Nov 13 15:21 |
oiaohm | Just jackaudio general user itnerface suxs. | Nov 13 15:21 |
oiaohm | jackaudio provides you with a full patch table. | Nov 13 15:21 |
oiaohm | Ie redirect channal by channel were ever you like. One channel at a time. | Nov 13 15:22 |
oiaohm | Kinda too messy for the normal desktop user _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:22 |
oiaohm | But is 100 percent required for high level audio work _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:23 |
_Hicham_ | then it is bloated for average user | Nov 13 15:23 |
oiaohm | No _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:23 |
oiaohm | Its lacking interface for average user. | Nov 13 15:23 |
oiaohm | Its like saying the Linux kernel is too bloated for the average user _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:24 |
oiaohm | What happens under pulse audio when user wants to do something advanced. | Nov 13 15:24 |
_Hicham_ | he doesn't find the interface | Nov 13 15:24 |
oiaohm | It simply cannot expand that far. | Nov 13 15:24 |
_Hicham_ | u have to go to alsamixer | Nov 13 15:25 |
oiaohm | Nop | Nov 13 15:25 |
oiaohm | alsamixer is not a patch table. | Nov 13 15:25 |
oiaohm | That advanced audio work needs. | Nov 13 15:25 |
oiaohm | Basically you should start at the most advanced interface and simplerfy it to user. | Nov 13 15:26 |
oiaohm | Not what pulseaudio is trying to do. Expand a interface to cope with the advanced users. | Nov 13 15:26 |
oiaohm | For this reason pulseaudio will have to be replaced at some point. Its structs are just not right. | Nov 13 15:27 |
oiaohm | If /when pulseaudio and jackaudio merge then we can start talking about final audio server _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:29 |
_Hicham_ | hopefully | Nov 13 15:29 |
oiaohm | Kernel is killing off OSS | Nov 13 15:30 |
_Hicham_ | why ? | Nov 13 15:30 |
oiaohm | leaving behind userspace emulation of OSS. | Nov 13 15:30 |
oiaohm | Open Source Sound system has a lot of issues. | Nov 13 15:30 |
_Hicham_ | it is deprecated, isn't it? | Nov 13 15:31 |
oiaohm | Deprecated then pushed to userspace. | Nov 13 15:31 |
_Hicham_ | better | Nov 13 15:31 |
oiaohm | So that leaves only ALSA framework from kernel. | Nov 13 15:31 |
oiaohm | Other issue with pulseaudio and jack is user does not have to be running them. | Nov 13 15:32 |
_Hicham_ | i think that all audio stuff must go into kernel | Nov 13 15:32 |
oiaohm | Not all. | Nov 13 15:32 |
oiaohm | But the interfaces need to be kernel. | Nov 13 15:32 |
oiaohm | Same no matter what. | Nov 13 15:32 |
_Hicham_ | putting stuff in kernel improves performance, no ? | Nov 13 15:33 |
oiaohm | Not always. | Nov 13 15:34 |
oiaohm | Remember context switching from userspace to kernel space is expesnive. _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:35 |
oiaohm | Some system calls in Linux kernel can redirect back to Like glibc for userspace to to avoid context switching. | Nov 13 15:36 |
*zer0c00l (n=user@117.199.140.237) has joined #boycottnovell | Nov 13 15:36 | |
oiaohm | Classic case is GPU prep work. Its faster in userspace than kernel space _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:38 |
_Hicham_ | i didn't know that | Nov 13 15:39 |
oiaohm | Its a simple case of numbers of context switchs. | Nov 13 15:39 |
oiaohm | If the prep work can make one datablock to send to gpu all the mult calls can be reduced into 1 context switch. | Nov 13 15:39 |
oiaohm | Now a context switch per call is going to hurt. | Nov 13 15:40 |
_Hicham_ | yes, evidently | Nov 13 15:40 |
oiaohm | Same applies to audio effects processing. | Nov 13 15:40 |
oiaohm | Basically if the hardware cannot do it you are better of in most cases doing it in userspace to produce less number of switches. | Nov 13 15:41 |
oiaohm | Have a good day _Hicham_ | Nov 13 15:42 |

schestowitz | tessier: but according to Bush, it was some imaginary thing called "Al Qaeda" and maybe Saddam who were behind it | Nov 13 20:30 |
tessier | Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was part of Al Qaeda is how I understand it. | Nov 13 20:30 |
tessier | Saddam's involvement is obviously very questionable. | Nov 13 20:30 |
schestowitz | As long as this trial shuts up the lunatics who think the US government masterminded it... | Nov 13 20:30 |
tessier | Clearly someone was behind it and should be on trial. | Nov 13 20:30 |
tessier | Indeed. Those people bug me. | Nov 13 20:31 |
schestowitz | tessier: watch the BBC's documentary on what "Al Qaeda" is | Nov 13 20:31 |
schestowitz | It didn't really exist | Nov 13 20:31 |
