framework_nulledCan anyone help me with my nokia n900, It just randomly turned off and won't boot up now.00:29
*** joshgillies has joined #maemo00:31
kerioframework_nulled: checked battery?00:31
kerioi'm not sure how you'd do that, but...00:32
keriowas it full/half-full/half-empty/empty?00:32
framework_nulledIt was full00:32
*** xes has joined #maemo00:32
*** xes has quit IRC00:32

kerioframework_nulled: remove it, wait a bit, put it back, try turning it on again00:32
keriono, wait00:32
keriowhat do you mean by "won't boot up"?00:32
kerioi just assumed that it meant "doesn't give any sign of life"00:33
framework_nulledWhen I turn the nokia on it shows me the nokia screen00:33
framework_nulledThen switches back off00:33
keriohm00:33
keriowhat does the indicator led do?00:33
framework_nulledflashes an amber colour00:33
keriohm00:33
kerioand pushing the power button again does...?00:34
*** Aoyagi has left #maemo00:34
framework_nulledNothing, I have to remove the battery for a few minutes, Then when I put it back in the same thing happens again00:34
*** vblazquez has quit IRC00:34
keriohm00:34
keriothat's kinda weird00:34
kerioit's as if it's stuck in ACT_DEAD mode00:35
kerioare you sure that when the amber led flashes, you can't do anything apart for removing the battery to get the n900 to do *something*?00:36
framework_nulledyeah, once the phone switches back off it does nothing at all00:36
framework_nulledled goes blank00:36
framework_nulledno matter how many times i try to power it up again nothing happens00:36
keriohm00:36
*** vblazquez has joined #maemo00:36
keriodid the usb port give any problems?00:36
framework_nulledusb doesn't pick it up at all00:37
keriono, i meant before00:37
framework_nulledoh, no00:37
kerio~n900-full-reset00:37
infobotmethinks n900-full-reset is when the user presses the PWRON (power-on) button for 8 seconds and removes the battery in the next 8 seconds, the TPS65950 enters NO SUPPLY state instead of BACKUP state, even if a valid backup battery is present. In such a situation, the backup domain registers are also reset, along with the VRRTC domain registers.00:37
keriotry making it boot again, then when it gets in the weird state where it does nothing, hold the power button for 8 seconds and then remove the battery00:38
kerioalternatively, try removing the battery for a couple of minutes and put it back again00:39
framework_nulledok, i'll try that, thanks for the help00:39
ShadowJKdoes 2-second powerbutton push in act_dead mode cause full boot?00:40
*** florian has quit IRC00:43
framework_nullednothing at all now, just a red led light flashing00:45
framework_nulledother than that everything seems to be dead00:45
kerioyou have to *hold* the powerbutton, as usual00:46
framework_nulledi was holding it, still done nothing00:47
*** NeutrinoPower has joined #maemo00:47
RiDwhat does a full reset do00:47
kerioideally, clean up some usb weirdness00:48
*** Darkchaos has quit IRC00:48
ShadowJKSounds weird that it'd all of the sudden constantly think it has charger connected00:49
*** xes has quit IRC00:49
kerioit could still be a battery problem00:50

DocScrutinizer05wait, *red* LED?00:53
DocScrutinizer05afaik red flashing LED means battery defect00:54
DocScrutinizer05while "ACT_DEAD" on "normal" boot could also mean it's doing a fsck00:56
framework_nulledyeah it was flashing red00:57
DocScrutinizer05I bashed this bug of missing user feedback during /home fsck several times now00:57
framework_nulledflashing amber now00:57
DocScrutinizer05flashing amber should only happen with USB attached to something that delivers 5V00:59
*** ChikuLinu__ has joined #maemo01:00
DocScrutinizer05is the device attached to PC or charger?01:00
framework_nulledI plugged the charger back in and after a few minutes it started flashing amber01:00
RiDhow am i supposed to clean n900's filthy screen?01:00
kerioframework_nulled: with the n900 still plugged in, try turning it on01:00
framework_nulledit went back to flashing red once i tried to turn it on01:01
DocScrutinizer05battery defect01:01
kerio:(01:01
keriooh well, bl-5js are cheap01:02
kerioespecially if you buy a (good) chinese battery01:02
framework_nulledso just order a new battery?01:02
SpeedEvilRiD: replace the screen protector01:02
DocScrutinizer05no warranty, but 98% sure01:02
RiDSpeedEvil i'm not usign any screen protector01:03
SpeedEvilRiD: or clean with a little soap, on a moist (not dripping!) cloth01:03
RiDusing01:03
*** Chiku|dc has quit IRC01:03
RiDi tried with a moist cloth01:03
*** jrocha has quit IRC01:03
SpeedEvilRiD: then put on a screen protector, which will hide scratches01:03
kerioDocScrutinizer05: how's the battery fault diagnosed?01:03
keriovoltage?01:03
SpeedEvilkerio: high ESR, I think01:04
RiDbut i can feel the different layers of dirt01:04

DocScrutinizer05RiD: are you sure that's not silicon oil coming out from digitizer on a puncture?01:06
RiDo_o01:06
RiDi do have a small puncture since phone's 1st week01:07
RiDthanks to my brother who was "having fun" with a joystick usb cable01:07
RiDthat ended up hitting the n900 as strong as it could01:07
RiDbut other than that no, and it's filthier on the left side... anyways, i'll leave that for tomorrow. It's definitely better than what it used to be01:07
ShadowJKmicrofibre cloths are awesome01:09
DocScrutinizer05indeed, except that black one coming with the N900, which is soaked in wax or silicon oil01:10
DocScrutinizer05absolute crap01:10
DocScrutinizer05worst cleaning cloth I ever seen01:11

DocScrutinizer05it's just hardly the size of a cigarette package01:13
DocScrutinizer05has 2 different textures on the 2 sides. and I use it since 2 years. It's awesome01:14
RiD"2 sides". Would it by any chance have 3? :O01:14
keriothe main focus being "two different textures"01:15
DocScrutinizer05it's been what you call back reference01:15
kerioalso, i'd like a mobius strip-shaped cleaning cloth, just to say that i have one01:16
DocScrutinizer05one side, awesome01:16
DocScrutinizer05a cloth that has only one side01:16
SpeedEvilsurely more appropriate would be a Kliening bottle.01:17
* DocScrutinizer05 tries to figure the Kliening bottle, but fails01:17

cehtehi dont know what mdk3 is and how its build, but a -pthread option to compiler and linker should fix that02:11

ErwinJungeIf I were to reflash my phone now and want a nice, optimal clean setup, what would be the recommendation to use? I've been reading up on cssu-thumb a bit and that seems like a good idea. Any other good ideas?18:25
*** Ethernin has quit IRC18:26
keriocssu-thumb is pretty fucking awesome, yes18:26
*** zogg_ has joined #maemo18:27
*** ZogG_laptop has quit IRC18:28
*** zogg__ has quit IRC18:29
DocScrutinizer05first good idea is to flash a clean PR1.3 and maybe even VANILLA(eMMC)18:31
DocScrutinizer05the rest is installation either way18:31
DocScrutinizer05IOW there's no alternative to PR1.3 fiasco image for flashing18:32
*** sixwheeledbeast has joined #maemo18:32
DocScrutinizer05after that, actually CSSU is recommended. Your call whether this will be CSSU-Stable, CSSU-Testing, or CSSU-thumb on top of testing18:33
*** sirdancealot7 has joined #maemo18:35
ErwinJungekerio: so, reflash, install kp & cssu-thumb, done? is it even possible at the moment with the constant state of flux of everything maemo.org?18:35
keriorepository.maemo.org is back to working18:35
keriowe still have some problems with the repos18:35
DocScrutinizer05thumb is for those brave at heart, since you might face ... complications that you'd not see with any other setup, like problems when maybe flashing a normal kernel later18:35
*** ZogG_laptop has joined #maemo18:36
kerioand iirc there's a problem with cssu-testing right now, because it eventually depends on a couple of packages that are in extras-*18:36
*** rcg has quit IRC18:36
kerioif it's not a problem, you could wait until merlin1991 fixes them18:36
DocScrutinizer05or use Stable18:37
kerioyou could use stable, but then you can't install cssu-thumb on top of it18:37
DocScrutinizer05meh18:37
DocScrutinizer05nonsense18:37
DocScrutinizer05you can switch to testing any time, no?18:37
keriowell, yes18:37
keriobut not right now18:38
keriowhich is the problem :)18:38
DocScrutinizer05pfff18:38
kerioi'm not even sure of which packages are problematic - one is libopenjpeg2, but that's in the plain extras too, so it shouldn't be an issue18:38
DocScrutinizer05<kerio> you could use stable, but then you can't install cssu-thumb on top of it   <-- WRONG18:38
keriofine, fine :(18:38
kerioErwinJunge: anyway, right now the recommended procedure is to flash pr1.3 (both combined and vanilla, to be sure), then install some flavour of cssu18:39
keriocssu-stable is "officially" recommended to any n900 user18:40
DocScrutinizer05cssu-s -> cssu-t -> cssu-thumb  is always a valid path. If it's working or if cssu-t is fsckdup by a enabler that depends on stuff it shouldn't depend on is another question18:40
*** ErwinJunge has quit IRC18:44
*** ErwinJunge has joined #maemo18:45
DocScrutinizer05and I can't help but suspect that those rogue dependencies in cssu-t enabler are introduced by uninstall function that should get nuked anyway18:45
kerionah18:47
kerioat least, not libopenjpeg2, that's pulled in by tracker18:47

DocScrutinizer05if that's actually true, then this uninstall option is a nice example what MUST NOT be done in distro maintenance18:47

phr3akDomwow, i just make an update after a long time, 125 upgradable packages18:59
zeevHi, I've installed remind on my n900 and run "play-sound Beep.acc.wav" on each triggered reminder, however it looks like it only works once (only once for the first reminder and does not reoccur and the rest of reminders are ignored). 1) Why? 2) Do I have to put something like this "remind -a ~/.reminders" to /etc/profile or any other place in order for remind to work after reboot?18:59
ErwinJungeok, so just extras-devel should be enough?18:59
DocScrutinizer05zeev: no clue about reminder, I recommend alarmed19:00
zeevDocScrutinizer05: what's that? I doubt it is as powerful as remind... for instance can it generate alarms based on sunset time? what about question 2) - it is pretty general19:01
DocScrutinizer05ErwinJunge: basically yes, though it's still not really recommended to keep it for global updates. The SOP is: enable extras-devel, install (or update) that one package you're interested in, then *disable* extras-devel again19:02
*** ashakunt has quit IRC19:02
zeevDocScrutinizer05: is alarmed maemo specific or linux general?19:03
*** xes has quit IRC19:03
*** dos1 has joined #maemo19:03
DocScrutinizer05zeev: no, it doesn't care about sunset, just about time of day and date. and 2) see my previous comment19:03
DocScrutinizer05alarmed is a maemo specific app19:03
*** DHR has joined #maemo19:05
*** q_plaz2 has quit IRC19:05
zeevok, so I'll stay with remind. 3) can I trigger alarmed from command line? 4) How can I run a CL command in maemo automatically on each boot?19:06
*** phr3akDom has quit IRC19:06
ErwinJungeOk DocScrutinizer05 thanks for the help, I'll probably redo the phone somewhere in the next couple of days19:06
*** Darkchaos has joined #maemo19:07
*** ErwinJunge has quit IRC19:07
DocScrutinizer05zeev: 3) Trigger? alarmed has a rich cli interface that allows configuration and listing of alarms. 4) depends19:08
DocScrutinizer05if you're asking re remind - it obviously isn't properly adapted to maemo, otherwise you wouldn't need to bother about that by yourself. Which suggests it has other flaws as well19:10
*** WizardNumberNext has joined #maemo19:10
zeevDocScrutinizer05: 3) great, so I might be able to use it with remind - where can I read about it? 4) so I want to run this command on each boot: "remind -a ~/.reminders" where to place it?19:10
DocScrutinizer05no idea19:10
DocScrutinizer05obviously remind is broken19:11
DocScrutinizer05so I won't look into it19:11
WizardNumberNextwhere can i get kp-v52? google doesn't seem to be too aware of it19:11
zeevwhy broken?19:11
kerioWizardNumberNext: tmp19:11
kerioer, tmo19:11
DocScrutinizer05because it seems to be designed for systems that never get booted19:11
zeevDocScrutinizer05: its a regular unix command19:12
keriothus, designed for systems that never get booted19:12
DocScrutinizer05see - regular unix commands relying on cron etc don't work on maemo19:12
DocScrutinizer05even worse if they don't rely on cron but do their own nonsense19:13
zeevDocScrutinizer05: so it doesn't hurt to restart it manually on each boot, right?19:13
DocScrutinizer05with sleep or timers/alarms19:13
DocScrutinizer05it probably DOES hurt, since that tool isn't aware of basic design rules for embedded, particularly maemo19:14
DocScrutinizer05for all I know it could do a busy wait until next event due19:14
DocScrutinizer05on maemo apps are supposed to use alarmd daemon. Alarmed does use alarmd19:15
DocScrutinizer05remind quite evidently doesn't19:15
zeevhow can I check whether it has busy waits?19:16
zeevstandard maemo alarm is too limited for me...19:16
DocScrutinizer05so, in pretty usual unix manner, it might wake up every second to check if an alarm event is pending19:16
zeevand drain battery?19:17
DocScrutinizer05yes19:17
keriowell, every second won't drain much battery19:17
DocScrutinizer05haha19:17
zeevlet's say, I don't care about memory - sooner or later n900 will have to be attached to power line permanently...19:18
DocScrutinizer05btw, alarmed can invoke arbitrary cli cmds19:18
zeevabout battery19:19
*** vogon has joined #maemo19:19
DocScrutinizer05it could even invoke this remind command19:19
WizardNumberNextwill backup-menu be sufficient for full device backup (and restore) in case of something software-wise broken19:20
zeevI need to make alarms depending on sunset19:20
kerioWizardNumberNext: almost19:20
WizardNumberNextso close, but it might fail?19:21
kerioit will work perfectly if you restore a backup made when the kernel was the same as the current one19:21
*** Vrm1 has quit IRC19:21
*** arcean has joined #maemo19:21
WizardNumberNextthat is answer, which I wanted!19:21
kerioor, rather, if the backup you're restoring has the modules for the current kernel19:22
zeevDocScrutinizer05: so, again, If I don't care about battery - how do I run "remind ~/.reminder" on each boot?19:22
keriozeev: does it daemonize by itself?19:22
WizardNumberNextso, basically if something fails, I just check which dir is linked to sth-current in /lib/modules and change it actual kernel installed?19:23
zeev-z[n]19:23
zeevRuns Remind in the daemon mode. If n is supplied, it specifies how often (in minutes) Remind should wake up to check if the reminder script has been changed. N defaults to 5, and can range from 5 to 60.19:23
kerioWizardNumberNext: nah, you don't even need that19:23
kerioWizardNumberNext: just make sure that the kernel that's currently flashed has its modules in /lib/modules19:23
kerioalternatively, flash the kernel that has the modules19:24
kerio(you need a pc for that, though)19:24
*** Aoyagi has joined #maemo19:24
zeevkerio: actually I'm not going to change the script... so I'm not sure whether it is needed. I also didn't see remind in my ps -x output - which is strange....19:24
WizardNumberNextkerio: lets say I would reflash it after backup and get to stock kernel, restore and then it seam obvious to me I have to change link in /lib/modules. or I dont?19:25
DocScrutinizer05zeev: alarmed --title "invoke remind each morning at 3:00" --command "remind -a ~/.reminders"  --cron '0 3 * * *'19:25
keriothe link is meaningless19:25
kerioall it matters is that there's the /lib/modules/2.6.28-omap1 directory19:25
WizardNumberNextok, then it is as I was thinking, but checking is always better then running into stupid problems19:26
keriojust... don't change kernel19:26
WizardNumberNextkerio: I understand. I only check what can cause it to fail and it case how to fix it. I think that is quite valid approach19:27
kerioWizardNumberNext: i usually grab the .fiasco image for the kernel i made the backup with19:27
kerioand store both19:27
WizardNumberNexthow to grab .fiasco then?19:27
WizardNumberNextother then stock obviously19:28
keriodownload the .deb and unpack it19:28
WizardNumberNextI have original kernel and kp-v51, so in case I can use it to boot device and fix whatever19:28
zeevDocScrutinizer05: if run remind while it runs already all the events will be triggered twice, if I'm not mistaken. That's why I ask how to do it on boot, so there will be only one instance of remind...19:28
kerioit'll be in the boot/ directory19:28
WizardNumberNextso I do have everything need, as I have both .deb and unpacked .deb19:29
keriooh, obvious warning: if you're running cssu-thumb, kernels without the errata fix are worthless19:29

zeev:)19:30
n900-dkexcept that the sun sets..19:30
zeevit is an xyz19:30
DocScrutinizer05zeev: I told you remind is obviously broken resp not properly ported to maemo. So I won't do the meintainer's work, your question should get directed to maintainer of remind, it's a mandatory part of such a tool19:31
kerioDocScrutinizer05: hm, do you know if anyone made or proposed an alarmd "compatibility layer" for crontabs?19:31
n900-dkSo you a table with the sunset times?19:32
zeevDocScrutinizer05: it was not really ported, just compiled19:32
DocScrutinizer05kerio: alarmed is as compatible as it gets. I suggested alarmed to also scan crontabs, but shapeshifter rejected that19:33
zeevso there is no way to run it on boot, correct?19:33
DocScrutinizer05kerio: a "compatibility layer" crontab (the command) -> alarmed is a shell 3liner19:33
zeevn900-dk: want to have ability not to miss sunsets or sunrises :)19:34
keriozeev: there's plenty of ways19:34
DocScrutinizer05zeev: there for sure are several ways, but only one correct way, and I'm not inclined to analyze remind to find out which is the right one19:34
zeevkerio: so give me at least one of them19:34
DocScrutinizer05zeev: odds are it won't work19:35
n900-dkzeev: So you download a table of sunset time? And use a script to look up this time of the current day and generate an alarm?19:35
zeevn900-dk: its more than just that - remind has very sophisticated syntax for defining alarms which I miss in standard maemo alarm19:36
n900-dkbut how will you define the alarm time?19:37

kerioShadowJK advises making that much, much bigger20:21
DocScrutinizer05well, depends on what you wanna do20:21
*** pvanhoof has joined #maemo20:22
DocScrutinizer05anyway, that's a dial to screw, when you wanna tackle that lockup/reboot issue during large writes to eMMC or uSD20:22
DocScrutinizer05for bs=1m a 4 entries on wait seems fine for buffers20:23
WizardNumberNextand for bs=128K?20:24
WizardNumberNextjust changed my script20:24
*** sirdancealot7 has quit IRC20:24
DocScrutinizer05if on the other hand you have a bs=1, you probably want nr_requests = 50000020:24
WizardNumberNextanyway I was using 64 there already, instead of default 12820:24
DocScrutinizer0564M is still a tad too much, for dd bs=1m20:25
WizardNumberNextassume I copy some big file (hundreds of MiB) from NFS to eMMC patition with ext4 (4KiB block-size I think - don't remeber). What you would propose then?20:26
DocScrutinizer05aiui each request is one buffer holding one IO event's data20:27
DocScrutinizer05and too many (large) buffers cause swap hell20:27
DocScrutinizer05which in turn causes reboot20:27
DocScrutinizer05my take on it20:28
WizardNumberNextblock-size=4096 inode-size=819220:28
DocScrutinizer05no warranties implied20:28
WizardNumberNextDocScrutinizer05: so I was thinking very right to lower it even more, then it is at the moment20:28
DocScrutinizer05generally for speed use high numbers for nr_requests, to avoid reboots use very low numbers, particularly when using huge buffersizes20:29
*** maybeArgh has joined #maemo20:29
*** maybeWTF has quit IRC20:30
WizardNumberNextso maybe adjusting dirty_expire and dirty_writeback would good idea as well20:31
DocScrutinizer05if I should make up a rule of thumb, I'd say: nr_requests * buffersize < 20MB, and you should be fine20:32
WizardNumberNextbut I do not really want to lower it much as I do not want cpu to be awaken too often20:32
DocScrutinizer05err?20:33
WizardNumberNextI should be a lot belowe it right now20:33

DocScrutinizer05so writing one more byte to a file of size 0b0111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111   will result in filesize 0b1000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 000020:42

xesDocScrutinizer05: does they have some kind of service like "try it for a week"?22:35
*** Ethernin has quit IRC22:35
DocScrutinizer05xes: nope22:35
DocScrutinizer05why would we need such stuff?22:35
jacekowskiprocessor in that server is like 500 eur22:35
DocScrutinizer05I'm running two hetzner (based) servers right now22:36
jacekowskithen 64gb of ram another 500 euro22:36
WizardNumberNextas long as it is not Intel, then it would keep its value22:36
jacekowskidrives, 200-300eur22:36
WizardNumberNextRAM keeps value22:36
jacekowskihttp://www.hetzner.de/en/hosting/produkte_rootserver/ex1022:36
jacekowskiit's intel22:36
jacekowskidesktop processor22:36
xesDocScrutinizer05: so you have already used their root hosting service?22:37
jacekowskibut that hardware is worth around 1k eur at the moment22:37
jacekowski+ maintenance + electicity+ internet22:37
DocScrutinizer05yes, skeiron is at Hetzner22:37
keriohm, why is linux convinced that the emmc has 977024 cylinders, 16 sectors/track and 4 heads?22:37
jacekowskiand i've got no idea how they make profit on it22:37
*** pvanhoof has joined #maemo22:37
WizardNumberNextyeah, nice choice - hi-end desktop intel cpu is worth aroung grand, after 5 years you cannot expect even 10 quid for that crap22:37
DocScrutinizer05xes: and all openmoko infra been hosted at hetzner as well, since 2008 or dunno when22:38
WizardNumberNextkerio: 4 heads are best22:38
xesDocScrutinizer05: good. One direct experience is the only way to be sure of the kind of service22:38
WizardNumberNexttrack could be understood22:38
WizardNumberNextactually heads as well22:38
jacekowskianyways, after my experience with hetzner i'm not going there again22:39
DocScrutinizer05xes: warfare also is familliar with Hetzner22:39
jacekowskii would rather pay little bit extra and go to ovh or leaseweb or even rackspace22:39
keriohm, this u22:40
keriowhoops22:40
keriothis partitioning is all wrong22:40
WizardNumberNextjacekowski: or buy several computers and start your own company22:40
xesjacekowski: rackspace is the better if... it's at 10km from your home22:40
WizardNumberNextI have good start - already two, but sucks at RAM22:40
DocScrutinizer05jacekowski: please more specific. Rant doesn't help22:40
DocScrutinizer05jacekowski: what's been your problems with them?22:40
jacekowskijust response times22:41
jacekowskifor everything22:41
DocScrutinizer05hmm22:41
jacekowskiincluding how long it took for server to restart when i pressed reboot button in the panel22:41
jacekowskias in, 3h from point when i clicked restart to when server restarted22:41
xesmy ibm blades take about 10 minutes to do a complete restart...22:42
DocScrutinizer05well, brkn could at least test this detail eventually22:42
WizardNumberNextwasn't it easier to do it from IOS?22:42
WizardNumberNextOS?22:42
jacekowskinot if you break it22:42
jacekowskii've flushed iptables with default policy drop22:42
jacekowskixes: http://www.rackspace.co.uk/22:42
WizardNumberNexthow can you break kernel in RAM? as long it works you can foirce it to do reboot22:43
jacekowskiWizardNumberNext: you have to communicate with it somehow22:43
DocScrutinizer05jacekowski: anyway I'd insist on KVM-console for those hetzner servers22:43
jacekowskii think they charge you through the nose for those22:43
WizardNumberNextjacekowski: even I wasn't such fast with DROP22:43
jacekowskilike double the price22:43
DocScrutinizer05yep, they do, for setup22:43

jacekowskiDocScrutinizer05: + 19 for flexipack22:44

WizardNumberNextjacekowsi: base of my FW at the moment was written rawly 8 years ago. Never failed me and never locked me out22:46
DocScrutinizer05yeah, especially for repo ;-)22:46
WizardNumberNextI would love ipv622:46
WizardNumberNextI have tunnel/64 so, it would be great for me22:46
xesjacekowski: rackspace? Have you read the prices???22:47
DocScrutinizer05n900-dk: you asked for sysops. ^^^22:49
sixwheeledbeast1+ for ipv6 here too.22:49
WizardNumberNext+6 for ipv622:50
DocScrutinizer05I really dunno what maemo will say when repository.maemo.org is AAAA only22:50
WizardNumberNext+point per each device with it own public ipv6 on my network22:50
WizardNumberNextit would be disatster22:51
WizardNumberNextit have to be both IPv4 and IPv622:51
WizardNumberNextI cannot get to my second tunnel trhough UMTS22:52
WizardNumberNextno idea why22:52
WizardNumberNextactually I know why, but I don't why they aren't doing what they are expected to do22:52
xesnow our servers are inside a xen grid, not a single server. I f there are not enough resources nemein can move the vms to allocate more resources. If we would buy a phisical server, maybe also that we miss some number evaluating requirements for the next future....22:53
DocScrutinizer05is there any IPv6-DNS only website?22:53
keriowhat do you mean?22:53
WizardNumberNextipv6.google.com22:53
WizardNumberNextand I encountered few in my experience22:54
*** b0unc3 has joined #maemo22:54
WizardNumberNextone of them have linux related content, but I cannot remember what exactly22:54
WizardNumberNextkerio: only AAAA record, no A record at all22:55

WizardNumberNextIPv4 is exhuasted for few years already22:55
n900-dkDocScrutinizer05: guess I missed the sysops?22:55

WizardNumberNextI am getting normal google page22:59
DocScrutinizer05hmm, maybe you have a IPv6 compatibility layer then, or even a IPv6-enabled DSL-routermodem22:59
WizardNumberNextno, I have tunnel on my server23:00
WizardNumberNextlook on my ip here23:00
DocScrutinizer05that's what I said, no?23:00
WizardNumberNextit is ip of my desktop!23:00
WizardNumberNexthard to call it compatibily layer - it is ipv6 in kernel - just normal one23:01
WizardNumberNextand router is crap and doesn't have ipv6 capability at all23:01
WizardNumberNextgood it have ip tunnel forwarding capabilty23:01

WizardNumberNextI would, if I could23:04
