Any thoughts? [06:15] heapme: then make 5 (but will be displayed as 6) partitions [06:15] genii i read its best to install source code like that in /opt/ [06:16] genii but that might depend on what perms you have [06:16] heapme: you can install source code in /opt or in /home [06:16] heapme I generally have like a ~/tmp where I compile/dissect source [06:16] i know but /opt is the FHS standard though for 3rd party software. doesnt really matter i guess, though some programs might look in /opt and /etc/opt for config files [06:17] hda1 = Windows; hda2 = /; hda3 = swap; hda4 = extended partition that will contain: hda5 = /home; hda6 = fat32 partition === Metz is now known as Ztem [06:17] XP could only make FAT32 to 32GB [06:17] heapme: [06:17] So an 80 splits into three of 32/32/left [06:17] XD [06:17] take what i say with a grain of salt, i'm still a noob [06:17] BUT that made it good when I switched it to Reiser3 [06:17] this is just stuff i read :p [06:18] heapme: you can install source code in /home as well. it doesn't matter if you install in /opt or /home as long as you have permissions in those directories, and you set the correct prefixes and paths [06:18] heapme: you know, theres a pretty nice third party program for winXP that allows you to view Ext3 partitions [06:18] premier__ view yes, but not write to without fear of corrupting :( [06:19] heapme: there's a driver that lets you write to them and it works fine [06:19] heapme: you can read/write from XP to Ext3 with a special program/driver. but not the other way around [06:19] i used one yesterday and corrupted my ext3 well not really the ext3 is fine but windows driver now refuses to read it for some reason [06:19] i know, but that ext3 driver/program is not stable [06:19] meh. it's running in windows, what do you expect? ;) [06:19] heapme: it is. the driver to read from Ext3. [06:20] err [06:20] trust me, mine was working fine and then all the sudden tit refuses to work. if i try to access my ext3 it wont let me anymore, it says something like 'format the drive, yes/no'? and thats it now [06:20] sorry, the driver to read/write to Ext3 in Windows XP [06:20] benefit of compiling source in ~/tmp ... you can just back that up or have it mounted on it's own hd whatever . then transplant all back in when upgrade or whatever.

[11:38] they are configured as being repeaters and they work as such, as otherwise I'd never be able to ping the common gateway which is a pretty far away [11:38] they are not acting as repeaters [11:38] repeaters (aka. bridges) don't have IP addresses - they operate at the link layer [11:38] repeater basically is a bridged connection === dope [n=dope@70-20.202-68.tampabay.res.rr.com] has joined #kubuntu [11:38] whereas a router is a different beast altogether [11:38] What lupine just said [11:38] is there a way to emulate windows within linux? === narg [n=narg@dsl-72-55-216-113.tcq.net] has joined #kubuntu [11:38] you need some /30s === slarty [n=slarty@cust244-dsl55.idnet.net] has joined #kubuntu [11:39] like how a mac can [11:39] dope wine [11:39] that'll emulate the whole OS?

[11:46] There is even a fourth router, D, which is further away than C. Think A-B-C-D where all are routers and a dsl modem M connected to C. whereevery I am, from each laptop I can ping A, B, C, D and M, right cross the whole building. when I have two Laptops both can ping any of those, but both can ping each other only if they are connected to the same router, i.e. A, B, C, D. [11:46] oh nm [11:46] it doesn't. So it sends it to the default router [11:47] but then how does the default route know which repeater to send it to? [11:47] inside the configuration of each router I configure which other one he shall "repeat" [11:47] lupine since point C is the closest to actual x.x.1.1 then it becomes the last hop [11:47] Anyone know of a good video editor to just edit a portion of an AVI?

Should I put all routers (A, B, C, D) on a different subnet than the laptops X and Y and the Modem M? Then I'd have a setting like for one router IP 192.168.2.77, netmask 255.255.255.0, GW 192.168.1.1 and the laptops would have something like 192.168.1.x [11:54] is that a mistake?
