[05:13] ChinnoDog: $newjob1 has already starded, $newjob2 starts monday :) [05:14] darnit wine, stop crashing. I hate investing countless hours into a game, just to have it crash out of the blut [05:14] blue* [05:25] andrew: yeah, I've given up on wine [05:27] Honestly, I'm not blaming wine for this issue [05:28] Wine keeps me satisfied for hours with age of empires 2 [05:28] But this game has a setting to autosave every x minutes, and it keeps the last three autosaves [05:29] always crashes during an autosave, so I've set the time to autosave every two minutes (most recent autosave will crash if I load it, so I have to go back one) [05:29] andrew: right [05:29] but can it run crysis? [05:29] Untested theory: turn off all autosaving, won't crash? Dunno, but there isn't much other way to save progress, so I'm hesitant to do so [05:30] andrew: right [05:30] mikedep334: Possibly: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=10107 [05:30] Title: WineHQ - Crysis Crysis 1.x (at appdb.winehq.org) [05:31] andrew: ahh, yes. I remember the greatly inconsistent reports on compatibility in appdb.winehq.org [05:32] when I do use wine, I try to stick with the stable version [05:32] speaking of which, wine 1.2.3 was released 2 days ago [05:34] 26014 Printing produces garbled output, characters rotated and sliced. [05:34] lol [05:34] I need to keep a list of funny bug(fixe)s [05:35] I remember hearing that during beta testing of C&C tiberian sun, the GDI orca that could carry vehicles around could actually pick up enemy vehicles [06:04] alright, trying with autosave off [07:47] (and it crashed on a manual save, go figure) [14:12] mikedep334: does the MX have an ARM version of the repositories available? [14:47] ChinnoDog: the Efika MX uses the ports.ubuntu.com repository for main, restricted (which is empty btw), univers & multiverse [14:47] http://ports.ubuntu.com/ [14:47] Title: Index of / (at ports.ubuntu.com) [14:47] ports.ubuntu.com hosts the armel & powerpc versions of the 4 main ubuntu repos [14:48] PPA's are however (almost) non-existant [14:48] genesi supplies their own repo for hardware support on the efika mx [14:48] http://packages.efikamx.info/ [14:48] Title: Index of / (at packages.efikamx.info) [14:49] I don't think I've found any 3rd party apt repositories [14:49] backports does have some updates, like chromium [14:50] ChinnoDog: unless there's something wrong with my unit that it causing it to perform slower, I am not satisfied with the performance on my efika MX, even if it does cost $130 + $10 shipping [14:50] however, when video acceleration is fixed, it should be good at that (it's supposed to even do 720P playback) [17:10] ChinnoDog: simply put, even if my efika mx can have its performance issues fixed, there's a lot of rough edges. I would mainly recommend it for someone who wants to tinker. The smartbook is better for less technical people because you don't have to fiddle with making monitors & TVs work properly; its screen "just works" AFAIK. [17:10] ChinnoDog: also, simmply put, ARM devices are a whole different ballgame === anduril_ is now known as anduril === LucidOne is now known as IdleOne [22:52] mikedep334: but even the smartbook lacks 3D acceleration?
