[04:24] <Apocalyptikz> Hey - I'm having some overheating issues with my laptop; only with linux (ubuntu). It seems like my fan isn't spinning at all, how can I control it?
[04:35] <Unit193> !fan
[04:35] <ubot2> fan is Control the fan  on/off  http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-12058.html
[04:36] <Unit193> Nevermind, that's broken. :P
[04:40] <Apocalyptikz> That URL doesn't load.
[04:40] <Apocalyptikz> Tried it on both my systems, btw.
[04:40] <Unit193> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto  or   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=42737 would be better, but not sure they'd help.
[04:40] <Unit193> Mine seems to be working in that area.
[09:20] <isiah> morning all
[12:55] <Guest75506> hi
[12:59] <Sidewinder1> Guest75506, Good mornin'.
[14:43] <raubvogel> preceeding question: can I specify how I want the partitions done?
[14:44] <holstein> raubvogel: sure.. you can do literally anything you like.. i would get the alternate iso for that personally, but you can prepare the disk with whatever tool you are comfortable with, and install linux however you like, even "sub-optimally"
[14:50] <raubvogel> holstein: all I want is to do disk alignment when creating the partitions
[14:51] <holstein> raubvogel: you can do literally anything you like.. im not sure what you mean by "alignment", but custom partitioning is no issue
[14:53] <raubvogel> holstein: so, something like this "mkfs.ext2 -L boot -b 4096 -Estride=32,stripe-width=224,discard /dev/sda1" would be doable?
[14:54] <holstein> raubvogel: without refering to manpages for mkfs.ext2 commands... as i said, *anything* is doable.. its all open, and you are free and encouraged to do what you like.. even if its a bad idea
[14:55] <raubvogel> holstein: you just reminded me of a Futurama song
[14:55] <holstein> raubvogel: i typically just use gparted... or the alternate installer i suggested
[14:55] <raubvogel> holstein: good. How would I pass those arguments?
[14:56] <holstein> !info fstab
[14:56] <holstein> !fstab
[14:56] <holstein> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab is where i would look
[14:57] <holstein> though, if i didnt know where to put those commands, i likely wouldnt use them.. if you found something do "copy and paste" in from a post somewhere
[14:57] <holstein> maybe start with what your intention is generally, and see if anyone has a suggestion on how to achieve your goal
[19:05] <nothingspecial> hi vinnie__ :p

[19:18] <nothingspecial> not a long term solution
[19:19] <aeoril-mob> No, but its easier than joining the army ....
