08:48 < rxr> so
08:48 < rxr> ah - ok - irssi logging again ... ,-)
08:51 < blindcoder> I have a bad feeling about this...
08:51 < blindcoder> updating util-linux on a running system
09:01 < rxr> why?
09:01 < blindcoder> last time I tried most patches screwed up royally
09:01 < blindcoder> but now I'm gonna try again since there's a new loop-aes patch available
09:09 < rxr> ok - the 2.6.9 headers cause regressions ... :-(
09:28 < blindcoder> what's worse than having to update patches?
09:28 < blindcoder> updating patches you don't have a clue what they do :(
09:32 < blindcoder> okay, no update then

15:01 < mnemoc> http://www.phone-soft.com/RaymondCathedralBazaar/catb_g.0.html :)
15:02 < rxr> re

15:34 < rxr> re
16:40 < mnemoc> rxr: here?
16:44 < rxr> jups
16:45 < rxr> but busy - and often rebooting due to the crappy USB stack of linux ...
16:45 < rxr> and soon into macosx anyway ...
16:45 < rxr> rebooting once more - back in 1min
16:58 < rxr> re
16:58 < rxr> mnemoc: ?
16:59 < rxr> b
17:00 < mnemoc> nothing :)
17:00 < rxr> nothing?
17:04 < mnemoc> i wanted to ask you about Homesteading The Noosphere in german, but i found it :p
17:05 < rxr> what are you doing with the german texts ?
17:07 < mnemoc> i'll help a company to open their code, and the 'arquitect' is german :p
17:07 < mnemoc> so it's easier to give him some essays than trying to explain the staff in spanish :p
17:08 < mnemoc> any other good essay/article you think he may need to read?
17:11 < rxr> hehe - my mind is full with worl expo, scanner driver and macosx stuff ...
17:12 < mnemoc> ok :D
17:12 < rxr> maybe ask valentin - the is the paper reading expert here *g*
17:12 < mnemoc> valentin: ping! :)
17:32 < rxr> re
17:33 < rxr> now in macosx - let's see how much this USB stack sucks ...
17:41 < daja77> hm was there a change in the mozilla build process in version 1.7.3
18:04 < valentin> mnemoc: pong ?
18:04 < valentin> sorry, had been quite busy
18:04 < valentin> n
18:04 < valentin> need to drive home, now

19:01 < rxr> re
19:42 < rxr> hm - s.th. is wrong with my just compiled libusb on macosx ...
19:43 < rxr> my driver does not discover any USB device ...
19:43 < rxr> although of course the scanner is connected :-(
19:44 < rxr> .oO
19:44 < rxr> s.th. is wrong with one usb port
19:45 < rxr> it seems s.th. might have destroyed it ...
19:47 < rxr> hell no
19:47 < rxr> this is unbelievable .. the macosx usb subsystem seems to suck even more then the linux one ...
19:48 < rxr> hm - now both of my usb ports do not recognize devices any longer - and do not yield power ...
19:48 * rxr rebooting this fucked up macosx ...
19:51 < mnemoc_> after your last 'optimization'?

21:05 < mnemoc_> have anyone used gforge.org?
21:14 < rxr> re
21:14 < rxr> gforge - gforge, hm - what was that ...
21:20 < CIA-9> rene * r4422 /trunk/package/base/miscfiles/miscfiles.desc: * updated miscfiles (1.3 -> 1.4.1)
21:26 < CIA-9> rene * r4423 /trunk/package/base/linux-header/linux-header.desc:
21:26 < CIA-9> * reverted the linux-header update, I find it too boring to fix yet
21:26 < CIA-9> new typing problems without a real value of the header update anyway
21:30 < rxr> hey, cool. My scanner driver under MacOSX:
21:30 < rxr> [avision] attach: Inquiry gives mfg=AVision, model=DS610CU, product revision=1.27.
21:35 < rxr> the default mac prompt sucks - and does not even support unicode or whatever it stores my userid into:
21:35 < rxr> Ren-Rebes-Computer:~/develop rene$
21:38 < rxr> wow - but osx does include diffstat ;-)
21:40 < rxr> well - and since my just automatically applied macosx security updates need a rebbot - cu soon ...
21:45 < rxr> re
21:56 < rxr> this is a damn OS ..
21:56 < rxr> it just kernel paniced on me ...
21:57 < rxr> the USB subsystem locks up so quickly ... - unbelievable ... and the usb ports fuck up in a way leaving them completely power-less - even my HUBs link active LED is not lighting then anymore ...
21:57 < rxr> and once it even booted up with one port unfunctinal ...
22:07 < rxr> damn does suck
22:35 < jsaw> Two things have come out of Berkeley, Unix and LSD. It is uncertain which caused the other.
22:35 < jsaw> (comment on /.)
22:35 < jsaw> :)
22:35 < rxr> haha
22:39 < rxr> wow
22:39 < rxr> now I have this transparent window macosx thing - and it is not even
22:40 < rxr> possible to control the translucency of a window individually
22:40 < rxr> afaics only programs that control this itself are able to be translucent
22:40 < rxr> I just downloaded some program to set the opacity of the windows with this program, and it does not want to work because it claims it was not tested on 10.3 ...
22:41 < rxr> this is a damn hell here ...
22:41 * rxr -> bed - n8 .* ,-)
22:42 < jsaw> sleep well
