agedwhat amount of memory would you reccomend for 11 10 in vbox please12:19
histoaged: 1024 or so....  You can go lower if you want. I think the minimums are rather low for 11.1013:35
pip__Hello.  I've managed to install AMDs13.1 drivers & Catalyst Control Centre in Quantal but cannot find the Overdrive tab so I can check my temp & fan speeds.  Is there something I need to enable or some other weirdness?17:01
holsteinpip__: is there a problem?17:05
holsteinif they didnt include the app, then it wont be there17:05
pip__I'm not sure yet, I'd just like to keep an eye on the fan speed, my 4870 was running REALLY loud until it popped a few days ago17:06
pip__I WILL NOT be overclocking the new card or anything17:07
holsteinpip__: there are other tools for checking17:09
holsteineven in the bios, which is not ideal... i usually just check when im worried... any app like that has overhead, though it might not be much... i paid $8US for my graphics card though17:09
pip__ok.  I've installed a 7870, so I'd like to keep an eye on it.  Sensors tells me the temp is good though17:11
pip__I found it odd that the Linux CCC didn't have the overdrive tab17:12
pip__What is a decent tool to monitor the fan speeds with?17:16
pip__please17:16
holsteinpip__: any of the applets, that i have not tried since gnome217:16
pip__haha, same here17:17
holsteinanything from the repos should work, assuming the device is passing it out17:17
pip__I think it must be as I get a reading in W717:18
holsteinpip__: no doubt that functionality *can* be supplied to you17:18
holsteinpip__: you cannot ever compare driver support or hardware support, or end-user experience from windows17:19
pip__perhaps I should rerun sensors-detect?17:19
pip__true.  I was kinda hoping that the GPU has the ability to supply the data, I guess it's making that actually happen17:20
pip__anyhoo - dinner. Thanks for the help again holstein17:22
