Wed Apr 13 03:05:27 UTC 2011 Okay, I hate to even bring this up, but I'm afraid it might be too late by the time we (potentially) realize we don't have much of a choice. The server that hosts this site is *old* hardware -- dual P3 with 3GB of ram was mean back in the day, but well, it's showing its age now. It's not that we need more processor and such - it's worse. Based on the last few weeks, and especially the last few days, there's a good chance that the server is physically dying - lots of random hardware faults, with the most recent being a clock that simply won't stay synced; it's losing time faster than time itself... Anyway, we're still hoping that it's just a fluke and perhaps a(nother) reboot will fix it, but well, you know how that will probably end... This server hosts not only my site, but also some others that you are likely to find useful, including: slackbook.org, slackpkg.org, sbopkg.org, alien.slackbook.org (alienBOB's wiki and blog), lists.slackbuilds.org (the mailing lists for SlackBuilds.org), lists.armedslack.org, and serves as MX and primary DNS for most of those. Probably I even forgot a few.. Anyway, I said all of that to say this: none of the owners of this box have ever made any money at all from it (we've spent a lot though) :) and at this point, we simply don't have the funds available to replace it. We're not asking for donations (yet?), but if we disappear for a few days without explanation, and you'd like to help out with replacement costs, contact me at rworkman@slackware.com for more information. Thanks and wish us luck! :-) -RW +--------------------------+ Sun Feb 13 05:29:37 UTC 2011 i486/xfce4-diskperf-plugin-2.3.0-i486-1_rlw.txz: Upgraded. i486/xfce4-weather-plugin-0.7.4-i486-1_rlw.txz: Upgraded. x86_64/xfce4-diskperf-plugin-2.3.0-x86_64-1_rlw.txz: Upgraded. x86_64/xfce4-weather-plugin-0.7.4-x86_64-1_rlw.txz: Upgraded. +--------------------------+ Wed Dec 29 22:35:33 UTC 2010 i486/claws-mail-3.7.8-i486-1_rlw.txz: Upgraded. i486/claws-mail-extra-plugins-3.7.8-i486-1_rlw.txz: Upgraded. i486/gdm-2.20.11-i486-3_rlw.txz: Rebuilt.
