| davmor2 | bigcalm: 2 things, are you using cat6 ethernet cabling across all systems, and are all systems able to make use of gigbit, if there is one system connected that can't it will drop the entire system to 10/100 just to cheer you up | 15:13 |
| directhex | davmor2, not on a switch. that's hub behaviour | 15:14 |
| directhex | switches have per-port speed | 15:14 |
| davmor2 | directhex: ah I was close though, the cat6 will still be key though right? | 15:14 |
| directhex | davmor2, cat6 for patch cabling? nah. you can easily do gigabit over cat5e. 10gbe really needs cat6, or better, fibre | 15:15 |
| gord | 14.7MB/s is still over 100mbit though, i doubt its getting downgraded | 15:15 |

| popey | retro | 17:13 |
| zleap | yeah | 17:13 |
| zleap | however i guess they are working on 12.04 by which time it will be superceeded by 12.10 | 17:13 |
| popey | 12.04 is more important | 17:14 |
| popey | being LTS | 17:14 |
| popey | IMO | 17:14 |
| zleap | ah, so i guess the manual will get more work done on it | 17:14 |
| popey | well, potentially more readers | 17:14 |
| popey | given 12.04 is supported for 5 years | 17:14 |
| zleap | but i agree with you on that one | 17:14 |
| zleap | yeah, but we need manuals now i guess | 17:14 |
| zleap | i have the 10,04 book | 17:16 |

| zleap | as i said it works with 11.10 so i guess if I install 12.04 and enable stuff it will work | 20:14 |
| MartijnVdS | Aren't 945s the old hardware-buggy kind of Intel graphics chip? | 20:14 |
| zleap | dunno | 20:14 |
| ali1234 | no, 945 works quite well | 20:15 |
| MartijnVdS | zleap: xorg.conf should tell you | 20:15 |
| MartijnVdS | ali1234: which one was buggy then? | 20:15 |
| MartijnVdS | were | 20:15 |
| ali1234 | it's the core i3+ integrated graphics that don't work properly | 20:15 |
| zleap | i have 11.10 running normally just looking at 12.04 | 20:15 |
| zleap | well the compiz settngs screen does not even fit on the screen, so using the work space viewer to see all of it | 20:16 |
| zleap | the screen is from the installer | 20:16 |
| zleap | so i have the software centre install screen up | 20:16 |
| MartijnVdS | zleap: /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p | 20:16 |
| zleap | yes to everything | 20:17 |
| popey | zleap: open a terminal... ps -aux | grep compiz | 20:19 |
| popey | is it running? | 20:19 |
| zleap | yes | 20:19 |
| popey | right, you're in unity 3d then | 20:19 |
| zleap | or i think it is | 20:19 |
| zleap | ok | 20:20 |
| popey | is there more than one line with compiz in it? | 20:20 |
| popey | not just the grep line | 20:20 |
| zleap | yes | 20:20 |
| zleap | top line is compiz i think, | 20:20 |
| popey | ok | 20:20 |
| zleap | so if I press super i get numbers on the launcher icons, if i hold it down longer i should get a help screen thing up | 20:20 |

| zleap | currently have 11.10 / linpus (or what ever it was called) and a recovery partition | 20:23 |
| popey | yeah, it doesnt appear here either | 20:24 |
| zleap | ok | 20:25 |
| zleap | maybe something else could be displayedf | 20:25 |
| zleap | as if people expect it to appear and it doesn't you will get lots of people with the same issue, i guess | 20:26 |
| popey | i dont think people will expect it to appear | 20:26 |
| zleap | or its something to note in any manuals / documentation at least, may not work on small screens | 20:26 |
| zleap | ok | 20:26 |
| popey | for most people it's a giant surprise that it exists at all | 20:27 |
| zleap | ah | 20:27 |
| zleap | is there a way to get it on 11.10 | 20:27 |
| zleap | i can test on main computer then | 20:27 |
