skellat | Hello | 02:26 |
skellat | What's new? I spent most of my day at Case Western Reserve University's School of Dental Medicine | 02:27 |
Unit193 | Computer has been having CPU hangups (crashes) all day and the other one keeps dropping internet :/ Only good news is the move to Natty mostly worked well | 02:31 |
Unit193 | And since all terminal colors are off (just had a kinda recoverable GPU wedge) | 02:32 |
skellat | Yikes | 02:41 |
skellat | France24 is livestreaming a cool documentary bit about the mini-hospital at Charles DeGaulle (CDG) Airport in Paris | 02:46 |
Unit193 | Just rebooted and it's already killed again... Maybe I'll ignore it for now and just use... Hmmm... | 02:48 |
skellat | I'd replace the video card | 02:49 |
Unit193 | Built in. If I can get it working, I can have it just fine until I reboot, then it will all go crazy... | 02:50 |
skellat | What sort of motherboard? | 02:51 |
Unit193 | Optiplex GX260 if that helps | 02:53 |
skellat | Ugh. Dell. | 02:54 |
skellat | I'd see if the BIOS could be configured to turn off the built-in video in favor of a drop-in board | 02:54 |
Unit193 | I rather like Dell, just not 8xx chipset | 02:54 |
skellat | The 8xx chipset breaks every bloody release of Ubuntu | 02:55 |
Unit193 | As I said, if I can get it working, it's fine for months! I just don't get that... | 02:56 |
skellat | There is a physical break somewhere, then | 02:56 |
Unit193 | I wouldn't think so. Intel 845G PCI Accelerated SVGA | 02:58 |
canthus13 | that's accelerated like a 66 VW Beetle... :P | 03:00 |
Unit193 | I can use that, a computer that has 500MHz Celeron, Vista or a working laptop (I would like desktop for most things though...) | 03:01 |
skellat | Yikes, that sounds like the Frankenstein box here | 03:03 |
Unit193 | That's 4 computers | 03:17 |
skellat | The Frankenstein box has bits and pieces of four separate computers in it to try to make a coherent whole | 03:23 |
skellat | Crap | 03:23 |
skellat | It's been a long day | 03:23 |
skellat | I gotta wander away | 03:23 |
Cheri703 | saw this yesterday: http://www.hostgator.com/jobs.shtml | 03:32 |

canthus13 | Cheri703: Cool.. Hope ya get it. | 03:36 |
canthus13 | Cheri703: you'd have to move to TX, I think.. I've been looking at Hostgator myself... They're in Austin, and I plan on moving there eventually. | 03:37 |
Unit193 | canthus13: Get your ticket fixed up? ;) | 03:37 |
canthus13 | nOT YET. | 03:38 |
canthus13 | .... | 03:38 |
canthus13 | Freakin' caps lock. why do we have it? | 03:38 |
canthus13 | I suppose if I coded cobol all day it might be useful... | 03:39 |
Unit193 | Cheri703: Does that make me sound at all annoying asking/saying that in other channel? | 03:40 |
Cheri703 | yeah, hostgator yes, but support.com no | 03:41 |
Cheri703 | what channel unit? | 03:41 |
Cheri703 | ah, gotcha | 03:41 |
Unit193 | #ubuntu-irc what other channel are we both in? :P (I thought the "gotcha" was at me?) | 03:44 |
