[00:19] <Zeb> anyone run cinnamon?
[04:34] <Shadow__X> hey 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?
[05:03] <holstein> Shadow__X: did you upgrade? i would try booting the last kernel and see if its working
[05:13] <Shadow__X> holstein: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 kernel
[05:14] <holstein> Shadow__X: i would try a live CD.. something you know supported the hardware, like 10.04, and confirm that its not a hardware issue
[05:15] <Shadow__X> holstein: 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 happened
[05:19] <holstein> Shadow__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 related
[05:19] <Shadow__X> can a nic half work like that?
[05:19] <Shadow__X> i just thought they just stopped working
[05:20] <holstein> Shadow__X: if its bad hardware, there are no rules
[05:21] <holstein> bad memory can cause some funky stuff to happen...
[05:22] <Shadow__X> i am running memtest right now so far i am about 52% way through 1 pass and its passing
[05:48] <Shadow__X> holstein: how many passes do you recommend
[12:11] <holstein> Shadow__X: as many as you can stand waiting for... when i have had bad ram, i would see errors early on though
[12:29] <WilsonBradley> Anyone 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?
[13:44] <Sidewinder1> WilsonBradley, 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.
[13:47] <coalwater> i usually thing if u are going to use the usb ssystem for a while id prefer if it was at least 4+ or 5+ gb
[14:00] <holstein> yeah, and just do a normal install to it... 8gb USB sticks are quite cheap these days... maybe dont have swap
[14:16] <WilsonBradley> Ok, thanks..
[14:17] <WilsonBradley> Was trying to do an system update
[14:17] <WilsonBradley> and it was huge
[14:17] <WilsonBradley> Will just download latest Ubunut build
[14:17] <WilsonBradley> that works..;-)

[20:41] <AJH101> hi is this the channel on wich to discuss U on a phone?!
[20:44] <Unit193> The concept idea that hasn't come out yet? If so, then nope.
[20:47] <AJH101> Unit 192: fair enough - do we have an eta?
[20:47] <AJH101> 193 sorry! :-)
[20:48] <Unit193> No idea, people have been dumped into #ubuntu-phone, but not sure they know all the much more at this point.
[20:48] <AJH101> lol thanks!
[21:39] <Shadow__X> holstein: yeah, i went through 2 passes and just threw a spare Gbit nic in there just to get it back up
[21:39] <Shadow__X> thanks for the help
[21:40] <holstein> Shadow__X: sure
[21:40] <holstein> anytime
[21:42] <Shadow__X> i guess i didnt want to accept the nic was dead
