[03:10] You can't just take out a HD from one comp and put it in another can you? (and still have Ubuntu working mostly fine) [03:10] ubuntu yes, windows, no [03:11] * Cheri703 does it fairly often [03:11] Sweet! Do I have to do any post/pre changes? [03:11] uhm, not really? if for some reason it's unhappy, you can put it back in and do the changes [03:11] Ok, thanks muchly! [03:31] Unit193: Yes. [03:31] Unit193: You will likely have to change some nic settings, but other than that you'll be fine. [03:31] Unit193: For whatever reason, whenever you switch machines it increments the NIC by one.. so eth0 becomes eth1, etc. [03:33] canthus13: wlan0 becomes wlan1 (I don't have a NIC in that comp) [03:33] ^ ? [03:33] Unit193: ifconfig -A should list the interfaces. [03:33] err. -a [03:34] Just saying that same thing for wireless... [03:34] If you're going from one brand of video chipset to another, you may also run into some weirdness. [03:34] I dunno. I would imagine it's the same. the only drive migration I've done has been on my servers. [03:35] Celeron to P4... [03:35] Processor is no big deal. [03:35] But if you go from nvidia to ATi, you may have a little trouble with screen resolution. [03:36] I don't even know what either has... [03:36] Everything else should be fine. [03:36] Although, with laptops, you never know. there may be some oddball proprietary hardware involved. [03:36] Both are desktops [03:37] One is HP the other is Dell... [03:37] Heh. the 2 brands that seem to do the best with linux. :) [03:38] Wireless chipset could be an issue. [03:38] Both are rather old... [03:38] RT73... [03:38] Dunno about that one. [03:39] but the worst that can happen is it won't work and you have to put the drive back. It's not like windows where everything breaks. [03:41] Never done it in windows (I have virtualized one before, no issues there) [03:42] Unit193: Heh. Don't bother. when you pop the drive into another machine, it freaks out, finds all new hardware, and sometimes refuses to even get far enough to find the new hardware... [03:42] The worst that can happen is that the Dell computer won't work... [03:43] it's a dell. as long as the hardware is good, it should work. [03:43] I just FINALLY fixed one windows network issue... took way too long.. [03:43] Not all that sure about the h/w [03:43] Ah. [03:53] Take a look at the timestamp:https://www.apnic.net/publications/news/2011/delegation [04:02] Yep. it's February 1st in asia. makes sense. [04:04] I still think it's kinda funny... IPv6 is needed, but I don't like it... [05:29] ha ha suckahs! I don't have to scrape ice off of a windshield in the morning! I don't think I've ever been so ok with freezing rain :) [05:41] I was just out in it... it's crazy! [05:42] yeah, I'm thinking of getting out the umbrella, putting on my yak-trax and going for a walk :) [05:43] Boots and umbrella would have been good... [05:43] yak-trax let you walk on ice without slipping [05:44] they're AWESOME [14:29] Hi everyone [14:30] Somehow I am having a problem with my keyboard. every time I type the audio b [14:30] mutes [14:45] Hmm. Neat interrupt issue.
