darkmatterhiya coz_19:43
coz_darkmatter,  hey guy19:43
darkmatterI get to have fun today. rebuilding my desktop. died on saturday :/19:44
coz_darkmatter,  ooo.. that's always a pain19:45
darkmatterpsu blew a really big cap. I hope thats all that blew19:46
coz_darkmatter,  a cap on what? motherboard?   video?19:46
darkmatterpsu. motherboard et al _looks_ ok. will find out after I toss in the new parts and see if it boots.19:48
darkmatterhad A POWER SURGE EARLIER THAT DAY. SOME DUMMY TOOK OUT ONE OF THE TRANSMISSON MAINS19:48
darkmatteroops. caps19:49
darkmatterI hate lappy keyboards19:49
coz_darkmatter,  ooo   ,, so you are replacing the cap or the motherboard?19:50
darkmattercoz_: I said mobo looks ok ;)19:51
darkmatterjust tossing in my old psu. will fix the cap once I can afford to19:51
coz_oh sorry19:51
coz_darkmatter,  my mind is elsewhere today19:51
darkmattermay as well hook up the router. change the bios battery, and try to get my earth shattering subwoofer going while I'm at it19:52
coz_:)19:53
darkmattercoz_: no problems. my mind is all over the place today as well.19:53
darkmatterthat psu was runnng for 5 years straigh anyway. lol19:53
darkmatterwas bound to go sooner or later.19:53
coz_darkmatter,  yeah that usually goes before  hard drives19:53
darkmatterI just hate when these things hapen though. aggravating as H.E.-double-hockey-sticks :P19:56
coz_darkmatter,  for sure,,  I had 3 psu's  go a few months ago within days of eachother19:57
coz_nature is calling be right back19:57
darkmatterI _hope_ the ss drivers for fedora work properly with this lappy when I dual boot it. it needs gamma correction under nix. can't do that with vesa :/19:58
darkmattersis*19:58
darkmatterfreaking SiS M760GX chpset. bane of the living19:59
darkmatterhaha19:59
coz_darkmatter,  does sis even have a decent driver that will work with gnome3??20:07
darkmattercoz_: no. not on linux. they don't release the 3d drivers for nix excet to OEM. I can get basic 3d/compositing (even on vesa), but I need the sis drivers for displlay setting. fedora and ubuntu have them, thankfully. but I'd rather go fedora first20:11
coz_oh ok20:11
darkmatterthe open source drivers for it _may_ run shell. but thats not my concern. fallback mode is fine. I just want colour correctness like in winders'20:11
coz_ohhh20:13
