      • teleGUISE
        shindig or ho-down or whatever those CH people call it
      • 2005-11-03 30712, 2005

      • ruaok
        not as off the hook as I expected it, but really cool nonetheless
      • 2005-11-03 30739, 2005

      • teleGUISE
        Maybe next year you can organize it ;) (like ru has nothing else to do!)
      • 2005-11-03 30717, 2005

      • ruaok
        so, its looks like test.mb.org didn't necessarily suffered drive damage, but perhaps hardware damage
      • 2005-11-03 30738, 2005

      • teleGUISE
        g0llum: I do have a track parsing issue
      • 2005-11-03 30739, 2005

      • ruaok
        which is good news for the data on that machine, but not good news to have to go and buy new hardware
      • 2005-11-03 30713, 2005

      • teleGUISE
        Drive crash happened while you were gone?
      • 2005-11-03 30717, 2005

      • g0llum
        what happened?
      • 2005-11-03 30735, 2005

      • ruaok
        I tried to log in on sat and the machine had TONS of read-errors.
      • 2005-11-03 30745, 2005

      • ruaok
        reiser FS put the drive in read-only mode.
      • 2005-11-03 30754, 2005

      • ruaok
        I had jeff simmons ride his bike over to my house to turn off the machine.
      • 2005-11-03 30710, 2005

      • ruaok
        I assume the drive was going south. (I've lost faith in maxtor drives as of late)
      • 2005-11-03 30724, 2005

      • teleGUISE
        out of curiousity what type of drive is it?? Are they server grade or just consumer?

        but today I tried to install ubuntu onto a new drive and the machine would not boot reliably.
      • 2005-11-03 30747, 2005

      • ruaok
        so, I brought it to the office, where the instal worked and copying the data worked too.
      • 2005-11-03 30758, 2005

      • ruaok
        consumer grade maxtor drive.

      • 2005-11-03 30717, 2005

      • ruaok
        everything in Vegas is covered with slot machines.

      • 2005-11-03 30733, 2005

      • teleGUISE
        Good IDEA!

      • fuchs
        if anyone has some time, test the new DiscID move on http://fuchs.homeip.net - move them around and tell me, what's not working :) (account is the one from mb, password is "mb")

        Thats a BIG must... especially another warning if they set language as English
      • 2005-11-03 30725, 2005

      • mustaqila
        I've got a highlight set to "must"
      • 2005-11-03 30715, 2005

      • fuchs
        g0llum: please don't add such warning, because gc only works for english releases :)

        it would be good to reverse the script/language setting in the workflow
      • 2005-11-03 30726, 2005

      • g0llum
        e.g. put it to the start
      • 2005-11-03 30736, 2005

      • fuchs
        teleGUISE: not another one but only then ;)
      • 2005-11-03 30755, 2005

        how does the language script setting getting defaulted? by the original moderators language?

      • g0llum
        it is guessed by some functions from the content of the fields
      • 2005-11-03 30747, 2005

      • g0llum
        but there's no specific point where it has to be, at the start would be possible too
      • 2005-11-03 30724, 2005

        left field question... are we concerned about releases that are not pulling up images or correct images though it exists on amazon?
