wrst | hello | 03:03 |
cyberanger | hey LostMonk | 03:25 |
wrst | LostMonk: how you doing? | 20:46 |
crazyq | hola everyone, hmm seems like it's been awhile since I was last seen in here! Glad to be back though, hopefully for good! | 20:57 |
wrst | crazyq: hello | 20:58 |
crazyq | Wow wrst: ur still here I see | 20:58 |
crazyq | I just recently returned back to linux last week, been having fun and also some frustration here and there but managed to work them out! | 21:00 |
wrst | cool crazyq what are you running? | 21:01 |
crazyq | Ubuntu 12.04 | 21:01 |
wrst | crazyq: btw they just can't get rid of me | 21:01 |
wrst | 12.04 seems to be pretty solid | 21:01 |
crazyq | I started off running 12.10 but was running into issues with graphics drivers cough cough nvidia | 21:02 |
wrst | crazyq: running noveau or nvidia proprietary? | 21:03 |
crazyq | so I started asking one of my linux buddy's about 12.04 and he said its solid | 21:03 |
crazyq | which ever one that has me using bumblebee to make sure everything runs right | 21:04 |
wrst | hmm crazyq ahh you have dual cards in your laptop? | 21:04 |
crazyq | yes sir | 21:04 |
wrst | intel/nvidia combo | 21:04 |
wrst | yeah that's a beast to get right sometimes i hear | 21:05 |
crazyq | yea I had to install 12.04 3 times to get it right after finding the right install thread | 21:05 |
wrst | that sounds like a pain i'm just on cheap o' intel on my laptop but it works nicely without fuss | 21:06 |
crazyq | I jus bought this laptop and I got it mainly for my DJ gigs but since it has a nice size hdd and I been itching to return back to linux I decided to use some of the space for ubuntu | 21:08 |
chris4585 | I've heard about bumblebee and it sounds awesome | 21:09 |
wrst | i think nvidia is possible working on something that actually works and is supported by them... or i think i heard that | 21:09 |
wrst | that would be part of the driver | 21:09 |
wrst | they they put out | 21:10 |
crazyq | yea its great, i ran into an issue for 2 days trying to install diablo 3 and I found that running a command in the terminal while installing d3 with playonlinux will help it start everytime. | 21:10 |
crazyq | well for systems that don't depend mainly on the intel ichip usually works great with nvidia | 21:11 |
crazyq | but for the systems that use them well its something wrong there | 21:12 |
chris4585 | wrst, I believe I may purchase a flash drive, read about 220mb/sec and right about 100/sec and possibly might use that for my OS drive | 22:03 |

wrst | chris4585: that could have some nice portability options | 22:04 |
chris4585 | yes, especially with usb 3, and if it works then I'm more than satisfied, flash is a little bit more dependable imo and a safer buy if it does work out | 22:06 |
chris4585 | yes, hopefully it will work like I want it to and the read speeds will be faster than a regular HDD | 22:17 |
chris4585 | or should be... | 22:17 |
wrst | i woudl think so especially with usb3 | 22:23 |
