Mar 20 14:13:47 <daveyboy> hey guys, I am after some help trying to got twnky runkning on debain./ keep running ito probs every time i try and its doing my head in
Mar 20 14:46:44 <daveyboy> reedy, just the man
Mar 20 14:46:51 <Reedy> oh lord
Mar 20 14:46:52 <Reedy> RU
Mar 20 14:46:53 <daveyboy> hows things?
Mar 20 14:46:53 <Reedy> N
Mar 20 14:46:57 <daveyboy> lol
Mar 20 14:47:31 <Reedy> Meh, bit mixed. Insurance company has taken 2 months to decide my laptop is a write off.. After repairing the screen and screwing over the cooling
Mar 20 14:48:34 <daveyboy> Ouch... well at least they finally decided. you get to pick which one you want?. i was just trying to sort slug out. running lo on spce on usb. will prob swap for 2 gig (oly 1 at mo)...but other tthig i am trying and failing on, is debian and twnkyseverer. you run that?
Mar 20 14:52:52 <Reedy> No idea... Maybe. Annoying thing is, 600+ custom laptop, after a month, hard drive falls on screen.. They've contacted their sourcing company to see what they can find.. Else, it'll come back to me to find out how much a replacement would be
Mar 20 14:52:57 <Reedy> I wonder how far i can stretch it
Mar 20 14:53:04 <Reedy> Also requested my HD back from my one in for "repair"
Mar 20 14:53:56 <daveyboy> ha good luck with that. It will be wiped for a guess. you kow what these places are like when it comes to data retrieval!
Mar 20 14:54:18 <Reedy> I've no idea
Mar 20 14:54:28 <Reedy> I backed it up and formatted it the first time
Mar 20 14:54:35 <Reedy> the hard drive was in the same state when it came back
Mar 20 14:54:46 <Reedy> Even if they'ved wiped it, i want it back for "disposal"
Mar 20 14:56:10 <daveyboy> :) to right
Mar 20 14:57:34 <Reedy> I haven't used my nslu2 in a while, tbh
Mar 20 14:58:58 <daveyboy> yea, I am wondering how lng mine has gt left. Got ice new TV and 360 so wanting to stream hi def cotent, but unless I can get twonky working it might become redundant :(
Mar 20 15:01:41 <daveyboy> Got ushare runing, but have to enable it each time, and not sure how stable it is with 360. well test some hi def content now
Mar 20 15:02:29 <Reedy> It might manage
Mar 20 15:02:34 <Reedy> but i can't imagine it'd be great
Mar 20 15:02:59 <Reedy> I've got 2 SheevaPlugs atm
Mar 20 15:03:05 <Reedy> Running as print servers at mine/my parents
Mar 20 15:03:08 <Reedy> bit overkill..
Mar 20 15:04:03 <daveyboy> yea they look very nice actually
Mar 20 15:04:56 <daveyboy> whats best way of clearing space on usb. i have run apt-get clean and also autoclean... i only got 50 meg free on 1 gig usb :S
Mar 20 15:05:05 <Reedy> what size disk?
Mar 20 15:05:38 <daveyboy> 1 gig usb stick (as boot drive) and then 500 gig hdd
Mar 20 15:05:43 <daveyboy> for all my content
Mar 20 15:06:17 <Reedy> Clearing your logs may get you something
Mar 20 15:06:31 <Reedy> cd /var/logs
Mar 20 15:06:34 <Reedy> rm *.gz
Mar 20 15:06:40 <Reedy> will remove the really old stuff
Mar 20 15:06:44 <Reedy> IIRC, with a way the file systems work, there is a % allocation for "root" and contingency usage.. You can reduce this somehow..
Mar 20 15:07:26 <daveyboy> that sounds good
Mar 20 15:07:44 <Reedy> make sure /tmp is empty.
Mar 20 15:09:03 <daveyboy> yea, all empty
Mar 20 15:09:07 <daveyboy> n logs
Mar 20 15:09:12 <daveyboy> no*
Mar 20 15:09:32 <Reedy> how much has that freed?
Mar 20 15:10:00 <daveyboy> is there way of searchuing for old packages that havent uninstalled correctly etc... i noticed medoatmb foles were all over place but it said it was no longer installed
Mar 20 15:10:15 <Reedy> it's probably just logs etc
Mar 20 15:10:19 <Reedy> No idea straight off
Mar 20 15:10:26 <daveyboy> Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
Mar 20 15:10:27 <daveyboy> rootfs                626M  541M   53M  92% /
Mar 20 15:10:27 <daveyboy> udev                   10M  632K  9.4M   7% /dev
Mar 20 15:10:27 <daveyboy> tmpfs                  15M     0   15M   0% /lib/init/rw
Mar 20 15:10:27 <daveyboy> tmpfs                  15M     0   15M   0% /dev/shm
Mar 20 15:10:30 <Reedy> "Simplest" option, ofc, is to reinstall
Mar 20 15:10:43 <Reedy> wheres the rest of the gig, swap?
Mar 20 15:10:46 <Reedy> "swap"
Mar 20 15:10:56 <daveyboy> yea must be
Mar 20 15:11:03 <Reedy> fdisk -l
Mar 20 15:11:09 <daveyboy> can I claim some of that aback without formatting drive?
Mar 20 15:11:23 <Reedy> plug it into a machine running linux and repartition...
Mar 20 15:11:54 <Reedy> swapon -s should tell you if you've got swap enabled
Mar 20 15:12:21 <daveyboy> Filename                                Type            Size    Used    Priority
Mar 20 15:12:35 <daveyboy> blank after that. looks like just the headers
Mar 20 15:13:25 <Reedy> no swap
Mar 20 15:13:28 <Reedy> fdisk -l
Mar 20 15:13:30 <Reedy> whats that say?
Mar 20 15:13:43 <Reedy> (will need to be root)

Mar 20 15:20:48 <daveyboy> yup
Mar 20 15:20:56 <daveyboy> might have to firte up linux disk
Mar 20 15:21:08 <Reedy> gparted live cd will do the job
Mar 20 15:21:21 <Reedy> Be tempted to take a dd image of the drive first, just incase
Mar 20 15:21:43 <daveyboy> yea deff
Mar 20 15:24:12 <Reedy> Right, off to tesco
Mar 20 15:24:20 <Reedy> back in a bit
Mar 20 23:10:07 <tunk> does anyone remember a guy who used to chat in here called "joshin" (last year)
Mar 21 00:04:57 <Reedy> tunk, aye..
Mar 21 00:05:09 <tunk> is he still around?
Mar 21 00:06:23 <Reedy> I can't really say i've noticed..
Mar 21 00:25:59 <tunk> haha ok fair enough
Mar 21 00:32:40 <Reedy> Why?
Mar 21 00:33:28 <tunk> i used to chat to him a few years ago and wondered where he'd gone
Mar 21 00:33:37 <tunk> just felt like saying hi i guess.
Mar 21 00:37:02 <DrJ> who you talking about tunk?
Mar 21 00:37:23 <tunk> His nick was joshin
Mar 21 00:37:52 <DrJ> [08:37:18:pm] -NickServ- Last seen  : Nov 17 02:28:41 2009 (17 weeks, 4 days, 22:08:52 ago)
Mar 21 00:38:41 <tunk> yeh, i figured he might have come in here since
Mar 21 00:39:33 <DrJ> [11-16-09 09:28:28:pm] * joshin (n=joshin@unaffiliated/joshin) Quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
Mar 21 00:39:42 <DrJ> last he's been in here according to my logs
Mar 21 00:39:50 <tunk> oh cool, thanks for looking that up
Mar 21 00:45:32 * DrJ found the logs of you talking to him also :)
Mar 21 00:46:45 <Reedy> DrJ, stalker!
Mar 21 00:46:52 <DrJ> :)
Mar 21 00:46:59 <DrJ> its fun to go back and look at logs
Mar 21 00:47:08 <Reedy> heh
Mar 21 00:47:26 <DrJ> more fun though when you are looking back at stuff you were involved in
Mar 21 00:47:41 <Reedy> "Oh wait, *I* told oyu htat?
Mar 21 00:47:42 <Reedy> "
Mar 21 00:48:22 <tunk> oh yes, logs. the worst bit of irc :)
Mar 21 00:48:47 <DrJ> my logs go back to 2004 (although not for this channel)
Mar 21 00:48:52 <DrJ> since I wasn't here in 2004
