canthus13 | Unit193: Mine routes quite well. And some of them have a telnet interface that you can activate... | 00:14 |
---|---|---|
canthus13 | It's a little sluggish, but I have no complaints in general. I've got a v7 that only gets reset if there's a power failure. :) | 00:15 |
Unit1931 | Know anything about v5? | 00:31 |
Unit1931 | I like irssi better then I did last week... but I still like finch better | 00:31 |
Cheri703 | I have my biggest dog curled up next to me on the couch...she kind of stinks | 00:34 |
dmcglone | Hi all, I have grub installed on my 2nd drive and I thought it was installed on my 1st drive, does anyone know how I can install it on my 1st drive instead? | 00:37 |
Unit1931 | heya dmcglone! | 00:37 |
dmcglone | Hi | 00:38 |
dmcglone | is sata hot swappable? | 00:40 |
Cheri703 | not as far as I know | 00:40 |
dmcglone | I had to get me a new dvd rom and it's sata and I only have 2 sata power cords and I'm trying to unplug my 2nd hard drive to use the power cord for the dvd rom but if I unplug the 2nd drive I can't boot because it seems I accidently installed grub on my 2nd drive instead of on the MBR | 00:42 |

dmcglone | thanks I'm gonna try that | 00:46 |
Unit1931 | as much as I love finch, I may have to switch to irssi for IRC... | 01:22 |
Unit1931 | dmcglone: Been having fun with moonlight? (been moonlighting :D ) | 02:20 |
dmcglone | Cheri703: , them grub pages didn't work :-( | 02:34 |
Cheri703 | that sucks | 02:34 |
dmcglone | nah Unit it's basically like flash | 02:34 |
dmcglone | what's screwed up is my grub is on my 1st drive, but when I remove my second drive it croaks and won't run | 02:35 |
dmcglone | I'm about to boot into windows and restore the MBR and then re-install grub later | 02:36 |
dmcglone | All I want to do is temporarily plug in a dvd player till I can get a splitter or adapter for the power cord | 02:37 |
dmcglone | I'll be back | 02:38 |
Cheri703 | k | 02:38 |
dmcglone | Ok I found the adapter at microcenterrr. Looks like no C&C tonight | 03:22 |
Cheri703 | so....yep | 03:37 |
Unit193 | Was? | 03:39 |
Cheri703 | eh...I dunno, I'm bored and ouchy | 03:40 |
Unit193 | Feeling better? | 03:41 |
Cheri703 | head is fine tonight | 03:41 |
Cheri703 | hip is KILLING ME | 03:41 |
Cheri703 | :( | 03:41 |
Cheri703 | blah | 03:41 |
canthus13 | bah. for a sec I wondered how you knew hip. (Someone in a tinychat room I know...) | 03:53 |
Cheri703 | heh | 03:53 |
Unit193 | Cheri703: It's new: Mr Sunshine (rather funny!) | 03:55 |
Cheri703 | will check it out | 03:55 |
dmcglone | good thing I still remember how to use pico | 04:12 |
Unit193 | Messed with the display? | 04:16 |
canthus13 | pico/nano. :) | 04:18 |
dmcglone | Yeah I'm messing with my monitor displays. as you all can see I've had a lot of crap going these past couple days.. LOL | 04:20 |
dmcglone | anybody know what's wrong with this: | 04:21 |
dmcglone | xrandr --output VGA-0 --auto right-of DVI-0 | 04:21 |
dmcglone | Is it wrong? | 04:21 |
* canthus13 usually uses Nano. | 04:22 | |
Unit193 | I just gotta ask: Did you issue the pico command? | 04:22 |
dmcglone | Yes Unit | 04:22 |
dmcglone | canthus13: I never did use nano | 04:22 |
* Unit193 doesn't like vim | 04:22 | |
Unit193 | pico = nano | 04:22 |
dmcglone | no Unit | 04:22 |
* BiosElement kills Unit193 for not liking vim | 04:22 | |
* canthus13 never knew pico was available in ubuntu. | 04:22 | |
dmcglone | for some reason pico just always clicked with me | 04:23 |
canthus13 | Oh. heh. pico <whatever> launches nano. | 04:24 |
Unit193 | BiosElement: You like vim? vimperator? | 04:24 |
BiosElement | vim FTW! | 04:24 |
BiosElement | Don't use vimperator since I don't use FF :P | 04:24 |
Unit193 | Knowing all the kayboard shotcuts doesn't work for me... (plus half the time they don't seem to work) | 04:26 |
Cheri703 | dmcglone: possibly the vga-0? mine is just vga# no - | 04:28 |
Cheri703 | I don't have the --auto, mine is just --left-of | 04:29 |
dmcglone | Cheri703: can you show me your whole line? | 04:31 |
Cheri703 | xrandr --output VGA1 --left-of LVDS1 | 04:31 |
dmcglone | I tried that.. Hmmm | 04:32 |
Cheri703 | do the other steps complete properly? | 04:32 |
dmcglone | xrandr --output VGA-0 right-of DVI-0 | 04:32 |
dmcglone | when I try that it spits out all the things I can use for xrandr | 04:32 |
Cheri703 | I have the line for "newmode" then "addmode" then "output vga mode" then "output lvds mode" then "output location" | 04:33 |
Cheri703 | are you sure it's vga-0? vs vga0? | 04:33 |
Cheri703 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/569453/ | 04:34 |
dmcglone | david@buddy:~$ xrandr -q | 04:34 |
dmcglone | Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 4096 x 4096 | 04:34 |
dmcglone | VGA-0 connected 1024x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 4 | 04:34 |
dmcglone | where did you put this file at? | 04:35 |
Cheri703 | I run it as a script from the home folder | 04:35 |
* Cheri703 made a launcher for it | 04:35 | |
dmcglone | Hmmm | 04:36 |
dmcglone | Cheri703: what is this pertain to: 106.50 | 04:40 |
Cheri703 | uhm, hang on | 04:41 |

Cheri703 | http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7063407&postcount=3 | 04:46 |
Cheri703 | basically that ^^ without adding to xorg conf | 04:47 |
dmcglone | cool I'm close | 04:50 |
dmcglone | got the monitors backwards I think | 04:50 |
dmcglone | Ok fixed that, but it's still not perfect. seems small | 04:52 |
Cheri703 | so try another size | 04:53 |
Cheri703 | I looked up all of the 16:10 ratios so I could play with them | 04:53 |
dmcglone | ok brb | 04:55 |
dmcglone | I logged out and back and everything worked perfectly | 04:56 |
Cheri703 | awesome! | 04:56 |
Cheri703 | I made the launcher so I can just hit the button when I connect my second monitor | 04:57 |
Cheri703 | (and for the record, that's the same script I gave you last time ;) ) | 04:57 |
dmcglone | I set mine to auto execute | 04:57 |
dmcglone | Ok I'm gonna log out and back in just to be sure LOL | 04:59 |
Cheri703 | nice | 04:59 |
dmcglone | perfect | 05:00 |
Cheri703 | awesome! | 05:00 |
Cheri703 | wonder why it worked this time and not before? | 05:00 |
dmcglone | I have no idea. | 05:01 |
Cheri703 | strange | 05:01 |
Cheri703 | eh, at least it's working :) | 05:01 |
dmcglone | it sure is | 05:01 |
dmcglone | I'll tell ya, I'm stuck on this here KDE 4.6 | 05:01 |
Cheri703 | heh, maybe I'll download it | 05:02 |
Cheri703 | eventually | 05:02 |
dmcglone | One more test. reboot.. LOL brb | 05:03 |
dmcglone | works but my desktop effects are disabled for some reason | 05:10 |
Cheri703 | small price to pay | 05:11 |
dmcglone | somehow my desktop effects got broken | 05:55 |
Cheri703 | :/ | 05:55 |
dmcglone | it seems the culprit is in my ./kde folder. I'll track it down tomorrow. for now I'm off to bed | 06:14 |
Unit193 | backup and delete ;) | 06:14 |
Cheri703 | night | 06:15 |
dmcglone | Yup. Quick and simple fix | 06:15 |
dmcglone | anyway, I'm off to bed. night | 06:15 |
Cheri703 | I hate it when the one site I want to visit is down -_- | 20:41 |
TheErk | hola | 23:28 |
