[01:00] <Fudge> anyone want to help with very basic patches |
|
[01:01] <sagaci> Fudge: what package |
|
[01:01] <sagaci> or bug report |
|
[01:02] <Fudge> no a patch to change /etc/default/grub setting remove comment for grub beep 2nd last line |
|
[01:02] <sagaci> yeah, what about it? |
|
[01:03] <Fudge> I am trying to learn ways to patch files such as that |
|
[01:03] <Fudge> to pacakge |
|
[01:03] <Fudge> been told about quilt also |
|
[01:03] <sagaci> are you using bzr |
|
[01:05] <Fudge> no |
|
[01:05] <Fudge> plan to though but this is my first delv into packaging |
|
[01:05] <Fudge> so just grabbed a package that themuso made for vinux that needs updating |
|
[01:05] <sagaci> where did you get the grub package |
|
[01:05] <Fudge> very basic things in it |
|
[01:05] <sagaci> ah ok |
|
[01:05] <Fudge> all the grub script is at the moment is adding a beep to 03-beep into grub.d and updating grub |
|
[01:06] <Fudge> previously though in our build scripts |
|
[01:06] <Fudge> we would sed /etc/default/gurb to uncomment |
|
[01:06] <Fudge> of course a patch is reliable where sed is not |
|
[01:06] <Fudge> so thought process is to figure out how to write a patch |
|
[01:06] <Fudge> sagaci hope that gives you a picture of what i am trying to explain :D |
|
[01:07] <Fudge> oh gosh |
|
[01:07] <Fudge> quilt seems extensive |
|
[01:12] <Fudge> sagaci you used quilt? |
|

[13:50] <ikt> anyone here? |
|
[14:12] <sagaci> ikt: maybe |
|
[14:30] <ikt> haha |
|
[14:31] <ikt> i'm wondering about the possible electiricty savings that could be made by having 1 server running spice and all 4 computers in the house connecting to it |
|
[14:42] <sagaci> wouldn't have a clue |
|
[17:37] <airtonix> spice? |
|
[17:39] <airtonix> oh it's like libvirtd |
|
[17:40] <airtonix> ikt: what are the compelling reasons to use spice over libvirtd ( & archipel) ? |
|

|
[18:04] <ikt> hard to explain as I'm just dipping my toes in the virtulisation pool |
|
[18:04] <ikt> but I gather SPICE is like 3d compared to RDP/VNC which is 2d, but more of a throughput deal |
|
[18:05] <ikt> if i understand it properly spice should sit on top of kvm |
|
[18:07] <ikt> archipel looks very awesome |
|
[20:44] <head_victim> ikt: when I looked into energy savings I decided to look at what I actually NEEDED 24/7 and figured out I could whack it all on a server (mine was file related and IRC was nice) and only have the desktops turn on when required. |
|
[20:45] <head_victim> I'm still in the process of moving it all to the server (as I happen to be in the middle of a study reorganise as well to remove a full size rack) but that's how I came up with the best power saving here. |
|
[21:00] <head_victim> On a side note, George Carlin rocks. |
