[00:00] <genii> Probably some fglrx bug then
[00:01] <Nikon> well, i did send it in for a broken fan a while back
[00:01] <Nikon> maybe its that
[00:01] <Nikon> but also
[00:02] <Nikon> my computer uses some program to control the fan
[00:03] <genii> aticonfig  has some option to directly control the fan
[00:04] <Nikon> it wasnt the card fan, it was the main cooling fan
[00:05] <genii> Ah. Since it's EFI I guess no ACPI or such. Unfortunately I don't know much about EFI/UEFI
[00:07] <Nikon> yea
[00:07] <genii> Sorry not to be of more help.
[00:07] <Nikon> No worries c:
[00:07] <Nikon> genii
[00:08] <Nikon> how much space should i give ubuntu?
[00:08] <Nikon> i have 106 gb free at the moment
[00:08] <genii> So probably 80-100
[00:09] <Nikon> correction
[00:09] <Nikon> lets see
[00:09] <Nikon> i just cleaned out my hdd again
[00:09] <Nikon> 122
[00:09] <Nikon> gb
[00:10] <Nikon> er 126
[00:10] <genii> The settings if you choose Guided mode are usually the optimal for what you have
[00:10] <Nikon> okie dokie
[00:10] <genii> At any rate, I need to leave work :)
[00:10] <Nikon> and it should install beside windows right?
[00:10] <Nikon> oh okay
[00:10] <Nikon> thank you for the help
[00:10] <genii> You're welcome, and good luck!
[00:10] <Nikon> and have a good rest of your day!
[00:10] <Nikon> thank you :3
[00:11] <genii> :)
[00:30] <Nikon_m> Hey, I'm back
[00:30] <Nikon_m> So my laptop is having some overheating issues with 12.04.3
[00:31] <Nikon_m> So much so I can't get the live cd working long enough to install ubuntu
[06:17] <BobJonkman1> If Nikon_m comes back, tell him I've had the same problem. I had to pop the cover off the laptop (non-trivial!) to remove the encrusted dirt on the heat-sink grille. Now I have enough fur to make my own kittens!
