01:00 < Pupeno> hi... I was wondering, how well suited is rock linux to build a user friendly distribution on top of it/based on it (I didn't have contact with Rock Linux yet). What I'd need to have is a nice set of packaged software to be installed with a nice graphical too (I'll code that) as well as a nice installer.
01:10 < Pupeno> nobody here ?

04:17 < Pupeno> mnemoc: ok, I'll give it a try tomorrow.
04:17 < mnemoc> you need to create a 'target'
04:18 < mnemoc> that target can hack everything in your build process
04:20 < Pupeno> mnemoc: what I'm most intrested, is there a nice packaging system ?
04:20 < mnemoc> .gem
04:21 < mnemoc> and `mine` tool to handle them
04:21 < Pupeno> gem ?
04:53 < mnemoc> rock's propietary file format
04:53 < mnemoc> tar.bz2 + metadata

10:56 < BoS> change the runlevel from2 to 5
10:56 < aloliver> i tried but didnt work :(

11:46 < rxr> netrunner: a open-gl screensaver?
11:47 < netrunner> rxr: no idea. just when I come back after a while, I see the console and cannot type any more.
11:47 < netrunner> the update I commited didn't help

15:32 < daja77> hm?
15:32 < daja77> ah the X thing
15:32 < netrunner> xscreensaver makes higher level functions cease. it still responds to pings, but cannot ssh there any more.
15:32 < daja77> netrunner: btw do you have a precomiled hppa kernel with nfs suppor?
15:33 < netrunner> nope. cannot do anything when my build server always dies :(
15:33 < daja77> why you use that screensavers anyway
15:33 < netrunner> it is enabled by default in xfce
15:33 < daja77> ugh
15:33 < daja77> what graphics driver you are using
15:34 < netrunner> cannot check :)
15:34 < daja77> :)
15:35 < daja77> that "nice" debian kernel ships without nfs support *grml*
15:35 < netrunner> hm, this prof uses some pad thing to write on it.
15:35 < netrunner> daja77: maybe it does not work ;)
15:36 < daja77> i hvae no idea how i should do that port thing without nfs
15:36 < daja77> and no smb isn't included as well

15:44 < netrunner> ;)
15:44 < _NULL_> he told me, that the evil voices from inside me (i never had such things), are caused by an alien which is inside me and this alien tells me that "life has no sense" and such crap
15:45 < _NULL_> !!! *roflmao* after that i was only laughing! 
15:45 < daja77> you bear an alien, I knew it

21:28 < rxr> hi dex 
21:54 < netrunner> I need a workaround for uml _if_ the host running the uml is 2.6 and the uml is 2.4. so how to do this? `uname -r` in build script? config option?
21:56 < rxr> netrunner: depends
21:56 < rxr> what kind of work around?
21:57 < netrunner> kernel patch
21:57 < rxr> and it does only need to be applied for this combination?
22:02 < netrunner> jup, at least as far as I read. but I'll try if it has impact on a 2.4->2.4 situation.
22:02 < netrunner> is anybody else working on an uml target btw?
22:03 < daja77> hm is there no patch for 2.4.26 available or am I just blind
22:03 < netrunner> no. but the old still applies.
22:04 < daja77> hm?

22:04 < daja77> dunno
22:08 < netrunner> uml?
22:08 < daja77> no
22:08 < netrunner> so what patch do you need? 
22:08 < daja77> just kernel update due security problems
22:08 < netrunner> oh, I wanted to build one but forgot :/
22:08 < netrunner> do you or shall I?
22:09 < rxr> cu later

22:45 < darix> even without sudo/fakeroot.
22:45 < SMP> sudo is not without root
22:45 < [DaGuesT]> is this true that rock linux is the "son" of slackware ?
22:46 < [DaGuesT]> (sorry for my english i'm french)
22:46 < darix> SMP: but it minimizes the time the build process doesnt run as root most of the time..
22:46 < darix> [DaGuesT]: not really a usefull question
22:46 < daja77> darix: we know about falkeroot and it is on cliffords todo afaik, so be patient
22:47 < darix> what would be a son of a linux distribution.
22:47 < darix> daja77: im always patient. but do i know clifford's todo? do i really want to know it?=)
22:47 < [DaGuesT]> darix: i would say that slackware and rock have "similitudes"
22:48 < daja77> ROCKLinux is no derivate work of any linux distribution, so we are not the son of slackware :)

23:32 < Pupeno> thanks :)
23:33 < Pupeno> Is there a nice re-usable installer ? or do I have to code one myself ?
23:33 < daja77> stone is what you are looking for
23:37 < Pupeno> ROCK aims to use as few patches on packages as possible.

23:43 < Pupeno> reading the handbook I understand that this can be achieved:
23:44 < Pupeno> I can make another distro based on Rock and use all the same Rock packages (kernel, glibc, gcc, x, etc) except for a part where I need customization (kde and k applicaitons) ?
23:46 < daja77> archlinux, perhaps?
