mishkinDear all, I would like to ask if there is anyway to add hard disk as RAM, I have a pretty old laptop and I would like to use virtualbox for some virtualization and I need just 256MB18:16
shadeslayermishkin: swap18:17
shadeslayer!swap18:17
ubottuswap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info18:17
shadeslayermishkin: on another note, KDE doesn't take alot of memory, I've run KDE on a 256 MB system where KDE took about a 100 megs18:19
shadeslayerofcourse, I had to disable nepomuk and akonadi18:19
mishkinshadeslayer and ubottu thanks I will take a look but conceptually I don't get it at all, I mean does virtualbox realize that swap was increased and it looks like mor RAM?18:19
shadeslayeroh wait, you said virtualbox, I should read more carefully18:19
Tm_Tmishkin: general warning: swap is used for non-active parts of data stored on RAM, in order to be able to use it, it has to be on RAM18:20
Tm_T...and hard disk is waaaay slower than RAM, thus making even more painful to use swap18:20
shadeslayer^18:20
shadeslayerunless you have a SSD18:20
Tm_Tit's still waaay slower and makes things painful18:20
Walzmynmishkin: why are you trying to run VB on an old laptop?18:21
shadeslayersure, but swap on a SSD >>> swap on a HDD18:21
mishkinTm_T: Yeah sure it does I mean I can imagine, just remembering long time ago I did something for fake RAM in order to use and Oracle eXi but I can not remember now18:21
Walzmynswap on an SSD will kill the lifespan of an SSD18:21
=== xubuntu is now known as Guest21341
shadeslayertrue that18:21
mishkinAnyway I will take a look to swap docs .. shit I was googling arround and I can nor rembmer or find out the way I did few years ago18:23
mishkinWalzmyn: Is just for some testings but I deinetly I  need more RAM18:24
WalzmynVB takes a lot of resources18:24
mishkinsorry I wanted to day definitely18:25
mishkinWalzmyn: what do you suggest instead? Kvm ?18:25
Walzmynyou said old laptop, is this your primary machine?18:30
mishkinWalzmyn: Yes it is...18:30
Walzmynmishkin: OK. Just when ya said it was an old one, I was thinking you also had a newer machine. I was going to say just use the old lappy native for your tests18:31

diniwed1Is there such a thing as an expert install..?20:37
dougldiniwed1, what do you mean?20:38
diniwed1dougl: debian-derived systems usually provide an expert mode (often non-graphical) where you can tweak just about anything. I did not find one when I installed kubuntu 12.0420:44
dougldiniwed1, I found I could tweak mine intalling from text mode - custom parts,mounts with and without formating20:45
douglif that helps?20:45
douglright down to individual package selection altho I did not look at it20:46
diniwed1dougl: odd.. must have missed it somehow..20:47
