[00:19]<pjwqdycn>rl03: okay, my 3945 works now
[00:19]<pjwqdycn>rl03: I don't know what I did though :p
[00:23]<zf01>fox2mike: cool
[00:24]<rpjzdrg>rl03: rawr
[00:24]<zf01>jforman: welcome to boston
[00:24]<rpjzdrg>heh thanks
[00:24]<rpjzdrg>leaving tomorrow for a week, but after that, i'll have to be officially initiated
[00:28]<fzvnwnz>jforman: remember, your line is "Thank you sir, may I have another!"
[00:28]<pjwqdycn>lol
[00:29]<2zyw>lu_zero: please make a habit of providing a link to the gentoo bug report when reporting a bug upstream :)
[00:35]<pjwqdycn>brix: the ipw3945 seems to be kicking the living hell out of my D-Link pcmcia...wow
[00:35]<2zyw>?
[00:37]<2zyw>fox2mike: is that good or bad?
[00:39]<pjwqdycn>brix: it's good. Damn good in fact
[00:39]<2zyw>ah
[00:40]<pjwqdycn>my link quality is like twice better with the ipw3945 than the DWL-630
[00:40]<pjwqdycn>with the same AP from the same position
[00:40]<2zyw>fox2mike: that's likely because of the antenna
[00:41]<pjwqdycn>brix: this one has two right?
[00:41]<2zyw>yes, that too
[00:41]<2zyw>fox2mike: but the main difference is the size of the antenna compared to a pccard
[00:42]<pjwqdycn>brix: okay...this is one is long and coiled up I presume?
[00:43]<fzzzvxzzz|wjzc>my netgear wg311T signal strength went up and down from 1 to 97 constantly. and reconnect a lot
[00:44]<2zyw>fox2mike: something along those lines ;)
[00:44]<pjwqdycn>brix: :p
[01:07]<rpjzdrg>spyderous: you around?
[01:08]<pjwqdycn>Stuart: Flameeyes: audio works, with alsa-driver
[01:08]<pjwqdycn>Flameeyes: serves me right for not liking alsa-driver I guess :)
[01:09]<ffrdnndns>:)
[01:09]<pjwqdycn>off to bed, nite folks!
[01:10]<ffrdnndns>night fox2mike
[01:16]<dauddyrrs> probably a stupid question....but that's never stopped me before...
[01:17]<dauddyrrs>anyone know a way to test (via ebuild of course) if a user has a version >= particular package version installed? has_version doesn't like >= (or > for that matter)
[01:18]<dauddyrrs>and best_version gives back too much info (really only interested in the version they have, not the full cat/pkg info...though i guess i could sed it out, but then that makes sed a dep...)
[01:19]<dauddyrrs>or (as i babble)....i think i know....
[01:19]<ffrdnndns>mcummings, use '>=blabla'
[01:20]<dauddyrrs>doesn't work (this isn't in the deps - this is determining which patch to apply)
[01:20]<ffrdnndns>err no i mean
[01:20]<ffrdnndns>has_version '>=blabla'
[01:20]<dauddyrrs>ah!
[01:20]<ffrdnndns>look at hmm hmm kdelibs maybe, i'm thinking _where_ i used that recently
[01:21]<ffrdnndns>ah! media-sound/kid3-0.6
[01:21]<dauddyrrs>Flameeyes: works like a charm, thanks!!
[01:21]<ffrdnndns>np :)
[01:21]<dauddyrrs>it was my lack of single quotes that did me in :)
[01:22]<vsugrd>g2boojum: ping
[01:22]<ffrdnndns>mcummings, without quoting it consider it as output redirect
[01:24]<dauddyrrs>Flameeyes: feeling kinda stupid now :) (knew that would be the outcome of asking - but if i didn't ask i would have come up with a lame bash substitution scheme guaranteed to fail)
[01:26]<ffrdnndns>mcummings, eh sometimes it made me wonder, too, but now i'm used ;)
[01:26]<ffrdnndns>leonardop, thanks for not dropping ~x86-fbsd on opensp :) simplified my work really :)
[01:27]<fgjgzzmjl>Flameeyes: heh, ok, I was actually kinda worried you guys were going to hate me for it :)
[01:28]<ffrdnndns>leonardop, naah, for +doc dependency would be worse to have the dep left out ;) and xmlto is useful to have for me as i use it for unieject :P
[01:28]<ffrdnndns>it required me some tinkering tho, but at least now it's done :)
[01:29]<fgjgzzmjl>Flameeyes: while we're at it, I was writing a comment in bugzilla, you opened bug #134195 but then closed it right away. I'm glad you committed the improvement, but it seems a little odd that you opened the bug and closed it without replies :)
[01:29]<annvns>leonardop: http://bugs.gentoo.org/134195 nor, P2, All, flameeyes@gentoo.org->text-markup@gentoo.org, RESOLVED, FIXED, app-text/xmlto: add support for getopt-long command
[01:29]<ffrdnndns>leonardop, sorry i should have said that, had the okay of nattfodd on irc :)
[01:30]<fgjgzzmjl>Flameeyes: ahh, ok, may I ask you mention those things in the bug? :)
[01:30]<ffrdnndns>leonardop, i usually do, this time i was thinking of something else probably :)
[01:30]<fgjgzzmjl>Flameeyes: anyway, thanks for the help and quick action, really appreciate it
[01:31]<ffrdnndns>leonardop, well i have to thanks xmlto authors, they did actually add the homepage of the program to use in the error message in configure :)
[01:31]<ffrdnndns>after that, creating an ebuild was quick
[01:32]<fgjgzzmjl>heh, good
[01:46]<ffrdnndns>just me or cvs is slow?
[01:49]<cxrygsrw>Flameeyes: Has it been fast for you?
[01:49]<ffrdnndns>well it's slower than usual :P
[01:58]<ffrdnndns>Chainsaw, seems like my router screwed up... again -_-
[01:58]<cxrygsrw>Is it a netgear, Flameeyes?
[01:58]<ffrdnndns>worse
[01:58]<ffrdnndns>d-link dsl-500 gen1
[01:58]<ffrdnndns>running virata atmos on a helium board (single arm processor)
[01:59]<ffrdnndns>it's not designed for a 2.5Mbit DSL it seems
[01:59]<ffrdnndns>was fine when i was at 1.2
[02:43]<slmmnzjus>jforman: am now
[02:44]<rpjzdrg>spyderous: i saw your mail. i am unaware of a way to search within attachments
[02:45]<rpjzdrg>i can only surmise that it would bring the DB to its knees trying to do full text searches of all attachments
[02:45]<slmmnzjus>how would it be any different than full text searches of all bugs?
[02:45]<rpjzdrg>one can paste multi-megabyte attachments
[02:45]<rpjzdrg>you cant do that in comments
[02:45]<fzzzvxzzz|wjzc>jforman, spyderous : advandce search Advanced Searching Using Boolean Charts
[02:45]<sjfzz>that should be limited imo also.
[02:46]<slmmnzjus>jforman: there's some sort of limit, actually. people often have to bzip xorg compile logs
[02:46]<rpjzdrg>solar: that is limited
[02:46]<rpjzdrg>right
[02:46]<slmmnzjus>jforman: i was for some reason getting all hopeful that you were gonna fix my nick finally =P
[02:47]<sjfzz>jforman: whats the byte cap on this btw in comments?
[02:47]<rpjzdrg>solar: on attachments?
[02:47]<rpjzdrg>or comments?
[02:47]<sjfzz>'in comments'
[02:47]<rpjzdrg>spyderous: heh
[02:47]<rpjzdrg>solar: now it is 8000 chars
[02:47]<rpjzdrg>before it was 65535
[02:47]<slmmnzjus>jforman: does it error out, or just arbitrarily crop to 8k?
[02:48]<rpjzdrg>spyderous: it spits out an "idiot, i'm not taking that" big red box
[02:48]<rpjzdrg>it does not accept it, it errors out
[02:48]<sjfzz>ahh that should be plently. (about an emerge info * 3)
[02:49]<rpjzdrg>solar: right, thats kinda the reason i was pining you the other day. i figured you'd ahve an insanely long emerge info, so was looking for an upper bounds. but dsd/jakub gave me sufficient data
