RE: Telewest + Linux + MAC(?) oddness
Has anyone used a Telewest modem and had problems having it play nicely with Linux? Nope. It should JustWork(tm) (although s/Linux/FreeBSD/ in my case). The situation is that a Windows 2000 box with its MAC address registered on blueyonder's site works fine when directly plugged into the Telewest cable modem, but a linux box whose external NIC's MAC address is similarly registered, and plugged directly in doesn't work. Even configuring it with the same IP/network config leased by the Windows box provides no joy. I'm wondering if the modem is rejected the MAC of the linux box while the Windows's box's lease is still in effect or something bizarre like that. Anyone got a clue here? How long have you waited after getting the new MAC address added? These things can take up to 24 hours, IIRC. You might have some success by powering off the cable modem (physically unplugging it from both the wall, *and* unscrewing the cable connection), waiting 5-10 minutes, and then trying again[1]. If you're desperate you could always just switch NICs to make sure things work. I assume you've already checked all the obvious stuff (cables, duplex settings, routing tables, and so on...)?

I'm wondering if the modem is rejected the MAC of the linux box while the Windows's box's lease is still in effect or something bizarre like that. Anyone got a clue here? You're pretty much correct. I've found that switching the modem off, then swapping the machine and powering up with the new nic in place does the trick.

They did their own testing and for the Dell's they used GCC instead of the Intel compiler. The numbers on teh SPEC site use Intel's compiler and are much better (beating the G5 in pretty much everything). The most interesting possible result of this would be if Intel started to contribute code to gcc, because if gcc's failing is going to make Intel look sucky in big public places, they will probably want to do something about it.

crash space stupidity
ok, i asked for crash space for monday to wednesday this week a few days back, but i've stupidly gone and deleted the response i got back. i messed up coming down for the oreilly thing, but i'm still going to come down for the emergency social tomorrow. so, if the person who originally replied could get back in touch that'd be great. also, i'm not sure if he's going to the social or not, so if anyone else who is going has any crash space available that would obviously be even more convenient. jody

Wotcha mongers, I'm back after my nearly 3 year sentence in Silly Valley. I've actually been back for 6 months, and despite not having made it to a London.pm meeting, have made good use of my CFT by relearning english spellings, reacquainting myself with driving on the left and, all in all, recovering with the help of real bangers and decent bacon sarnies.
