[18:16] Dear 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 256MB [18:17] mishkin: swap [18:17] !swap [18:17] swap 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 info [18:19] mishkin: 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 megs [18:19] ofcourse, I had to disable nepomuk and akonadi [18:19] shadeslayer 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] oh wait, you said virtualbox, I should read more carefully [18:20] mishkin: 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 RAM [18:20] ...and hard disk is waaaay slower than RAM, thus making even more painful to use swap [18:20] ^ [18:20] unless you have a SSD [18:20] it's still waaay slower and makes things painful [18:21] mishkin: why are you trying to run VB on an old laptop? [18:21] sure, but swap on a SSD >>> swap on a HDD [18:21] Tm_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 now [18:21] swap on an SSD will kill the lifespan of an SSD === xubuntu is now known as Guest21341 [18:21] true that [18:23] Anyway 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 ago [18:24] Walzmyn: Is just for some testings but I deinetly I need more RAM [18:24] VB takes a lot of resources [18:25] sorry I wanted to day definitely [18:25] Walzmyn: what do you suggest instead? Kvm ? [18:30] you said old laptop, is this your primary machine? [18:30] Walzmyn: Yes it is... [18:31] mishkin: 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 tests [19:11] im having a problem, mythtv-backend wont automatically startup [19:11] what things should i check for? === spawn57 is now known as spawn[dead] [19:13] oh wait, dmesg says mythtv-backedn respawning too fast === user is now known as lolcatz [19:45] salve!

[20:44] dougl: 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 12.04 [20:45] diniwed1, I found I could tweak mine intalling from text mode - custom parts,mounts with and without formating [20:45] if that helps? [20:46] right down to individual package selection altho I did not look at it [20:47] dougl: odd.. must have missed it somehow.. [20:49] is there forsure... did a install text yesterday [20:50] dougl: is it a 'hidden [20:51] ' option in the installer's main menu..? [20:51] was a grub boot option [20:51] I thot [20:52] gui does not work on my box until the nvidia drivers are installed [20:52] I have to kinda coax an install but is good when I am done [20:55] well, PC-BSD is a total washout on my hardware ...installed it successfully after 3 tries , then it freezes during the load after login , nothing much has changed in 7 yrs :P [20:56] heh frustrated yet?
