Zebanyone run cinnamon?00:19
Shadow__Xhey guys i am having a problem where i keep getting an error in dmesg saying sk2 eth0 speed/duplex mismatch and my nic doesnt want to negotiate at Gbit speeds anymore any idea whats wrong?04:34
holsteinShadow__X: did you upgrade? i would try booting the last kernel and see if its working05:03
Shadow__Xholstein:I think i upgraded to a new kernel and the problems was there but i cant remember if i had the problem them upgraded or visa versa. Regardless i have tried booting an older kernel05:13
holsteinShadow__X: i would try a live CD.. something you know supported the hardware, like 10.04, and confirm that its not a hardware issue05:14
Shadow__Xholstein: well i did install windows 7 on a spare drive and it does not want to get Gigabit speeds there either but i am not sure what happened05:15
holsteinShadow__X: could be motherboard... could be the NIC... either way, i would try 10.04 live, and then thats 2 different OS's that are reporting failure.. i would consider the possibilty at that point that its hardware related05:19
Shadow__Xcan a nic half work like that?05:19
Shadow__Xi just thought they just stopped working05:19
holsteinShadow__X: if its bad hardware, there are no rules05:20
holsteinbad memory can cause some funky stuff to happen...05:21
Shadow__Xi am running memtest right now so far i am about 52% way through 1 pass and its passing05:22
Shadow__Xholstein: how many passes do you recommend05:48
holsteinShadow__X: as many as you can stand waiting for... when i have had bad ram, i would see errors early on though12:11
WilsonBradleyAnyone else use Live Linux boot of a USB  Persistance / Casper-rw ? Simple question.. Can I increase the Filesystem size? Trying to do an  update on it and it says it's to small to do a 1+gb partial update. Maybe I should just download the LATEST build?12:29
Sidewinder1WilsonBradley, If you're USB is out of space, I think you're SOL and will need to install to hard disk. Either that or get a bigger USB.13:44
coalwateri usually thing if u are going to use the usb ssystem for a while id prefer if it was at least 4+ or 5+ gb13:47
holsteinyeah, and just do a normal install to it... 8gb USB sticks are quite cheap these days... maybe dont have swap14:00
WilsonBradleyOk, thanks..14:16
