| inetpro | hmm... | 07:11 |
|---|---|---|
| inetpro | good morning everyone | 07:11 |
| charlvn | hi inetpro | 07:17 |
| Reenen | plop | 11:38 |
| Reenen | is i7's etc. 64bit or 32bit CPUs? | 11:38 |
| mazal | 64 | 11:39 |
| mazal | Well the i7 is , I dunnot about the etc. ;p | 11:39 |
| Reenen | but the ubuntu install is still i386? | 11:40 |
| mazal | Nope, you get 32bit and 64bit Ubuntu on all flavours | 11:40 |
| Reenen | it says here http://releases.ubuntu.com/precise/ PC (Intel x86) desktop CD For almost all PCs. This includes most machines with Intel/AMD/etc type processors and almost all computers that run Microsoft Windows, as well as newer Apple Macintosh systems based on Intel processors. Choose this if you are at all unsure. 64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop CD Choose this to take full advantage of computers based on the AMD64 or EM64T architecture | 11:41 |
| Reenen | now currently I have an AMD64 | 11:41 |
| Reenen | but I plan to upgrade in a month or 2 | 11:41 |
| Reenen | and then I intend to go nvidia and intel, as it's better supported by linux | 11:41 |
| mazal | You can use the amd64bit cd if you have an i7 | 11:42 |
| Reenen | good | 11:42 |
| Reenen | I have loaded the 64bit iso from usb onto my work pc (just live USB), and it's snappy! | 11:42 |
| mazal | 12.04 ? | 11:42 |
| Reenen | booting from USB is quicker than the XP we running with | 11:43 |
| Reenen | yeah | 11:43 |
| mazal | Yeah well , Windoooze is a bit slow hehehehehehe | 11:43 |
| Reenen | and only 12y old | 11:44 |
| mazal | And that live usb startup is usually a good way too see how it will work with your hardware | 11:44 |
| mazal | Obviously it will be much faster on HDD and you will then add screen drivers etc. | 11:44 |
| mazal | But if the live "try ubuntu" works well then the install usually will work well also | 11:44 |
| Reenen | lol, I was watching star trek not too long ago... they had USB like drives, but it was small little cylinders which is still *way* bigger than usb drives are | 11:45 |
| Reenen | anyone run/ran Diablo 3 with 12.04? | 11:46 |
| mazal | not me | 11:48 |
| Reenen | which gfx cards gets drivers on linux? | 13:10 |
| superfly | Reenen: Intel, nVidia, ATI, VIA.... most of them. The question is more which graphics cards have drivers which work and are not a pain to install. | 13:12 |
| Reenen | i mean company supplied drivers | 13:14 |
| Reenen | or is that what you mean too | 13:14 |
| superfly | Sort of. | 13:15 |
| Reenen | so AMD drivers not too hard to install? | 13:18 |
| superfly | Reenen: most of them are in the repositories, that's why we have the "Additional Drivers" tool | 13:21 |
| charlvn | try that as a first option, if that doesn't work, find the exact make and model of your card and hit up google / the wiki | 13:22 |
| charlvn | the wiki is probably the first place to look but just googling sometimes gets you blog posts with more up to date info | 13:22 |
| Reenen | kk bye... gtg for now... | 13:25 |

| Banlam | :P | 17:02 |
| charlvn | hahaha https://gist.github.com/2829545 | 17:04 |
| Banlam | lulz | 17:05 |
| * nuvimob facepalms politics in ZA… | 17:05 | |
| charlvn | nuvimob: if you keep doing that you will wear out both your face and your palms | 17:06 |
| nuvimob | lol | 17:06 |
| nuvimob | oh my goodness, a word of warning: don't install nod32 for Linux on Ubuntu 12.04 | 17:10 |
| nuvimob | I lost my xsessions for quite a while today | 17:11 |
| nuvimob | lo magespawn | 17:11 |
| magespawn | Hi nuvimob | 17:12 |
| magespawn | Evening all | 17:12 |
| nuvimob | are you well? | 17:12 |
| magespawn | Yes I am very, and you? | 17:12 |
| nuvimob | doing good thanks | 17:13 |
| magespawn | Thats good then. | 17:13 |
| charlvn | nuvimob: what is that, some type of antivirus thing? | 17:14 |
| charlvn | ok so just found the real host maaz is running on - mammon.mene.za.net | 17:14 |
| charlvn | got it to ping me and then listened for incoming icmp ping requests | 17:15 |
| nuvimob | I don't get it. don't people understand that by protesting and doing damage for better service delivery, they actually take 100 steps back on improved circumstances!? | 17:15 |
| nuvimob | charlvn: yeah | 17:15 |
| nuvimob | I wasn't very fond of the idea of running something on my machine | 17:15 |
| magespawn | Some ppl feel that this the only way they will get heard, other do not know any better | 17:16 |
| nuvimob | magespawn: yeah, you're right, unfortunately | 17:17 |
| charlvn | although i don't blame people for feeling frustrated, there's no point in degrading to primitive savagery | 17:20 |
| charlvn | but their inability to take proper action is part of why the country is having the problems it is at this stage | 17:20 |
| magespawn | What would you do if you felt the enitre government was against you? And you 'cannot' vote for somebody else becuase they are not your party? | 17:22 |
| charlvn | yeah that is the exact problem | 17:23 |
| charlvn | this notion of "our/their" party | 17:23 |
| magespawn | Not to bring politics into the channel. | 17:23 |
| magespawn | Exactly. | 17:23 |
| magespawn | I will never vote for a party that has a 2 thirds majority. | 17:24 |
| charlvn | same here | 17:25 |
| charlvn | just to keep balance in the force, i will vote for the opposition | 17:25 |
| charlvn | even if that is the only reason, that is reason enough | 17:25 |
| magespawn | Indeed | 17:26 |
