Nivex><19:27
NivexI upgraded my old laptop from 10.04 to 10.10 and now I don't have any 3D again19:27
NivexIntel chips are supposed to be the most open, and yet they seem to have the most regression issues19:27
holsteinmaybe you should just go on to 11.04 ;)19:28
Nivexmaybe once they hit beta I'll throw a LiveCD at it and see what it does19:29
holsteini finally got around to testing my studio gear in 10.1019:29
NivexIn the meantime I'm tempted to wipe/reinstall this thing as 10.0419:29
holsteinthat aint happenin' either19:29
NivexI only have one other machine on 10.10 here and that's a test box19:29
semioticroboticanyone have experience with intel SSDs in Ubuntu?19:41
holsteinnot yet19:41
semioticroboticah, okay19:41
holsteini have an SSD in my EEEpc19:41
holsteini use ext2 without swap usually19:42
holsteinits not a high dollar SSD though19:42
semioticrobotictwo of my former EEEs had SSds19:42
semioticroboticright, right19:42
holsteinso im not to worried19:42
semioticroboticyeah, makes sense19:42
semioticroboticI'm thinking of upgrading to an Intel 40GB SSD after the new year19:42
semioticroboticjust wondering if anyone recommends against it, has had issues with 10.04, etc19:43
holsteini guess it depends19:43
holsteini think its still a little early19:44
holsteinprice wise19:44
semioticroboticyeah, you may be right19:44
holsteinand id really like to see btrfs get stable19:44
semioticroboticthe drive is $110 on Amazon19:44
holsteinhmmm19:44
holsteinthats not ba19:44
holsteind19:44
semioticrobotic$108 and change, to be exact19:44
holsteinstill, that'll get you a 2tb sata now19:44
holsteinnot for a lappy19:44
semioticroboticnow, that's the X25-V, so you lose some performance, but still an improvement over my 5400RPM spinning drive19:45
semioticroboticyes, but I'm not necessarily interested in the copious amounts of space19:45
holsteini think i want that first19:45
semioticroboticI keep very little on my machine; most is stored on exteral drives19:45
holsteinnice chunk of storage somewhere in the house19:45
semioticroboticha!  you might rival that data ceter Apple is building 'round these parts19:46
holstein;)19:47
semioticroboticwell, we'll see what happens.  i'll continue to think it over.19:48
