| xTEMPLARx | guess i'm the only one here with kids | 16:56 |
| xTEMPLARx | :P | 16:56 |
| wrst | well i have kid note singular be no phineas and ferb... yet | 16:57 |
| xTEMPLARx | i thought you had more than the one... Maybe I'm thinking of Raoul. | 17:07 |
| wrst | just one for me !!! thats MORE than enough | 17:12 |
| wrst | morning chris4585 ;) | 17:12 |
| chris4585 | hey wrst | 17:13 |
| xTEMPLARx | downloading latest 12.10 beta | 17:24 |
| xTEMPLARx | I tried updating my machine at home from 10.04 to 12.04 doing the built-in dist upgrade... it failed miserably. | 17:25 |
| xTEMPLARx | miserably I say | 17:25 |
| xTEMPLARx | although now that I think about it, it was probably graphics issues | 17:25 |
| xTEMPLARx | :D | 17:25 |
| wrst | you always have graphics issues :P | 17:28 |
| xTEMPLARx | only here lately for some reason | 17:40 |
| xTEMPLARx | frustrating | 17:40 |
| wrst | that is and you are running nvidia right? | 17:43 |
| xTEMPLARx | yup everywhere | 17:56 |
| xTEMPLARx | so its almost like I never had any trouble with them until Linus ran his mouth about NVidia | 17:57 |
| wrst | xTEMPLARx: evil plot by them? | 18:27 |
| xTEMPLARx | could be! | 18:27 |
| wrst | NVidia says... I'll show you Linus, how dare you stick that particular digit out at us! | 18:27 |
| xTEMPLARx | haha | 18:30 |
| xTEMPLARx | i wonder... can one upgrade from a 32-bit to a 64-bit system? | 18:31 |
| wrst | xTEMPLARx: good question that would rquire a different kernel and all different packages correct? | 18:39 |
| xTEMPLARx | possibly | 18:39 |
| xTEMPLARx | definitely on the kernel | 18:39 |
| wrst | you currently 32 bit i take it? | 18:41 |
| xTEMPLARx | yeah here | 18:42 |
| xTEMPLARx | but this is the base install I had prior to upgrading to the quad-core AMD mobo | 18:42 |
| wrst | xTEMPLARx: it is possible it appears: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1750169 | 18:43 |
| wrst | last commetn | 18:43 |
| xTEMPLARx | haha thanks... not very encouraging, that post | 18:51 |
| wrst | no xTEMPLARx i really figured you could switch your sources somehow pull in a 64bit kernel and the packages then reboot | 18:54 |
| wrst | sudo apt-get reinstall the whole stinkin' thing | 18:54 |
| xTEMPLARx | haha probably | 18:55 |
| xTEMPLARx | might as well just reinstall it though | 18:55 |
| xTEMPLARx | I need to re-establish a better partitioning scheme though | 18:55 |
| xTEMPLARx | i.e., separate /home location from the main OS install | 18:55 |
| wrst | xTEMPLARx: i really need to do that, when we quit using my laptop at church and arch moves totally over to systemd i'm going to do that | 18:56 |
| xTEMPLARx | that's always been a big problem here... when it comes time to install a clean system on this box, its a pain and things get lost | 18:57 |
| wrst | i have Win7 native on my laptop but i NEVER boot into it when i need windows i have a VM so probably use all 640GB on that thing for arch and partition it properly | 18:57 |
| xTEMPLARx | I wish one of the VM proggies would let you boot your win partition rather than having to install a dedicated one | 18:57 |
| wrst | that would be cool | 18:58 |
| wrst | when i go heavy into paritioning i generally screw something up | 18:59 |
| wrst | i followed all the arch stuff and didn't pay attention to /tmp and had it filling up if i let a machine run more than for a week or two | 18:59 |
| wrst | i need to study up before i do that again | 19:00 |
| xTEMPLARx | my biggest issue here is carrying my email over | 19:00 |
| xTEMPLARx | it SHOULD be a simple process, but it never really is | 19:00 |
| xTEMPLARx | I'm using Thunderbird now, so maybe it won't be as bad | 19:00 |
| xTEMPLARx | was always usingEvolution prior | 19:00 |
| wrst | xTEMPLARx: this is promising looking: http://askubuntu.com/questions/81824/how-can-i-switch-a-32-bit-installation-to-a-64-bit-one | 19:01 |
| wrst | xTEMPLARx: t-bird is super easy that's what i used at work, i backed everything up when a hard driving was going away and i just replaced the files and it was like nothing ever happened | 19:02 |
| wrst | that linke makes since you install 64 bit package apt, etc then chroot with a 64boot live cd to run those to get the 64bit kernel i think you can do it or blow your system up trying ;) | 19:03 |
| xTEMPLARx | guess the larger question would be: is it FASTER to do it that way? | 19:05 |
| wrst | i would think absolutely not :) | 19:11 |
| xTEMPLARx | I wouldn't think so either | 19:20 |
| xTEMPLARx | I mean.. .its an interesting thought to think it COULD be done, but really, the benefits (if any) of doing so don't seem to outweigh a simple backup-and-reinstall | 19:21 |
| wrst | i'm sure it can be done it appears, its linux! | 19:35 |
| wrst | but yes probably a total waste of time :) | 19:39 |
| xTEMPLARx | :D booting into the 12.10 beta dvd... bbiab | 20:20 |
| wrst | wb xTEMPLARx | 20:38 |
| wrst | orr wb xTEMPx | 20:48 |
| wrst | hmm wb xTEMPLARx | 20:48 |
