[02:34] I've had dinner, I'm not hungry any more, jedijf === erstazi_ is now known as erstazi [06:09] I won an auction on eBay, paid for it, received it, and /then/ eBay cancelled the aucion. What is the sense in that? [08:50] hey, anyone need a consultant for anything linuxy? i'm tight for cash until $newjob paychecks start rolling in, and i gots ta eat. and pay bills. [16:45] bts3685|vps: when is $newjob starting?

[16:46] @seen Irishmanluke' [16:46] ChinnoDog: I have not seen Irishmanluke'. [16:46] @seen Irishmanluke` [16:46] ChinnoDog: I have not seen Irishmanluke`. [16:46] I don't know what the trailing character was. [17:00] @seen Irishmanluke_ [17:00] MutantTurkey: I have not seen Irishmanluke_. [17:00] hmmmm.... [17:07] @seen Irishmanluke~ [17:07] ChinnoDog: I have not seen Irishmanluke~. [17:07] I thought it was some time of apostrophe or quote [17:08] @seen Irishmanluke^ [17:08] ChinnoDog: I have not seen Irishmanluke^. [17:11] @seen Irishmanluke1 [17:11] MutantTurkey: I have not seen Irishmanluke1. [17:12] hrm [17:12] I am stumped ChinnoDog [17:19] Me too, and I am too lazy to check my log [17:34] @seen Irishman1uke [17:35] @seen Irishman1uke [17:35] rmg51: Irishman1uke was last seen in #ubuntu-us-pa 1 year, 26 weeks, 5 days, 9 hours, 9 minutes, and 15 seconds ago: morning [20:08] he was on #plug this morning... [20:47] PennBot`: nick PennBot === PennBot` is now known as PennBot [22:17] * ChinnoDog yawns [22:25] * SamuraiAlba plays RoM [22:35] hey guys, I want to benchmark the time to compile the 2.6.38 vanilla kernel on my efika mx (arm nettop) once I extract it, isn't there an option I can use to not compile every single module or whatever? [22:36] I found online for 1 cpu: # yes "" | make config # time make -j2 [22:53] mikedep334: If you are just trying to benchmark your nettop you can use the Phoronix test suite. [22:53] I made some lovely graphics when benchmarking my hard disk configuration on my desktop. I should have posted them. [22:53] s/graphics/graphs [22:54] I showed that 2x10krpm hard disks is faster on btrfs than 2x10k + 1x72k. btrfs apparently doesn't take the latency difference into account as well as it could. [22:54] ChinnoDog: I'm not certain, but I'd bet the phoronix test suite won't run completely on this armel machine. [22:55] it only does OpenGL ES for example [22:55] Oh. I've never tried to run it on architectures other than x86 [22:55] x86/x64 [22:57] ChinnoDog: yeah, this is very different beast.

I always forget right click pastes in PuTTY [23:01] ChinnoDog: and my "open link in browser" option doesn't work for me in PChat on WIn7 [23:03] Yea. I think there is a way to fix link recognition in PuTTY but I've been too lazy to do it [23:03] Is that the cheapest of the current wave of ARM netbooks? [23:09] mikedep334: I can not find a page showing all Ubuntu based arm netbooks. How did you find that? [23:18] ChinnoDog: they're very rare [23:18] and beta-ish [23:19] http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=sharp+netwalker [23:19] Title: sharp netwalker - Google Search (at www.google.com) [23:19] the sharp netwalker is 5", but has the same SoC as the Efika MX SmartTop & Smartbook [23:20] the SoC is the Freescale i.MX515, with an 800 Mhz ARM Cortex A8 CPU Core [23:20] it's instruction set it ARMv7 [23:20] (ARM11 CPUs are ARMv6 instructions, ARM9 CPUs are ARMv5 instructions) [23:21] I'm not sure why, but debian/ubuntu always use "armel" packages; not sure how they relate to those ARMv* revisions [23:21] "arm" was the old instruction set used by debian [23:22] there was another company releasing a smartbook with the same CPU/SoC recently, I think it was more expensive [23:23] now a bunch of Tegra 2 (Tegra 250) smartbooks (ARM netbooks) are coming out; I've only seen them running ANDROID [23:23] smartbooks have been largely shelved for a year now because manufacturers are focusing on tablets [23:24] this a prominent tegra 250 ANDROID smartbook [23:24] http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/24/toshiba-ac100-smartbook-gets-android-2-2-upgrade/ [23:24] Title: Toshiba AC100 smartbook gets Android 2.2 upgrade -- Engadget (at www.engadget.com) [23:25] there's also lots of cheap/generic chinese designs, but they seem to all have pitifully slow ARM9/ARM11 CPUs, even at 1 ghz, an ARM11 isn't really good enough for Ubuntu [23:26] ChinnoDog: also, keep in mind, there is almost no standardization to ARM hardware yet (Linaro, an Ubuntu-sponsored project), is working on that [23:26] so you need specific images of the OS for different hardware [23:27] and you can brick your devices often if you flash the flash memory wrong
