[03:04] I'm so aggregated [03:34] For why? [03:42] that must have been painful [05:28] lol [05:28] Aggravated [05:28] I bought an hp two years ago [05:29] never again am I buying ati mobile graphics [05:29] ive not heard one good response. good idea, horrible implementation. though cell phones have made much progress in this field [10:21] Morning. [10:23] Morning [12:40] yep [13:16] Morning peoples, dogs, turkeys and everything else [13:42] hi [13:43] anyone have a good experience with mobility graphics [13:47] I drew a picture while on a train. [13:49] I could probably draw a wheelchair if I tried. [13:55] it counts [13:55] means it works [13:59] I have no idea what we are talking about. [14:04] mobility graphics is aka switchable graphics. my laptop has a Radeon but I can tell it to use intel hd integrated when on battery [14:06] You mean the type of laptops with both on-board and external GPUs? [14:11] pvl1: mine has that, but I don't know how to use it under linux. [14:12] or even if I can. [14:12] On windows it was possible to tell each application which driver to use. [14:16] I had that on my T400 but I couldn't get it working right under Ubuntu. [14:16] Windows 8 has special handling for multiple graphics card so on this laptop everything runs with the Intel adapter by default unless I tell it to use the nVidia [14:17] I only use nVidia for Sketchup and games though [14:36] yes waltman [14:41] JonathanD ChinnoDog I got it working, but the actual driver is complete trash. ati cannot develop a decent diver [14:44] technically they don't support it.u gotta get manufacturers drivers [14:45] which hp failed on. so I can't blame amd [14:45] it's just disappointing. 2gb card, keeps crashing [14:46] ChinnoDog: yeah that's annoying! [14:46] can you manually disable on card at least? [14:51] On T400? I could only enable/disable cards in the BIOS. [14:52] I left the ATI card permanently enabled on the T400 when I was doing that. [15:18] that's the first main way.the next is that amdccle has the stretchable graphics setting when in bios it's manual rather than automatic [16:07] My server hung. What log do I check to see what happened? [16:08] The console was unresponsive [16:09] all of them. [16:09] :-\ [16:31] idk what is wrong with weechat but I think it is fixed [16:32] Are there any logs automatically archived on system boot that would have the last events from before the server went down? [16:38] syslog? [16:38] kernel maybe debug [16:39] r u sure it wasn't network problem [16:42] Not entirely but restarting the server from the control panel fixed it. [16:46] Do u think you can recreate [16:48] No. I don't know what caused it and all I was doing was sitting on IRC. [16:56] ugh. Now my audio on my laptop is broken. This is going to be one of those days that nothing works. [17:05] it's that time of year [17:09] :-( [17:10] Dell system update killed my sound because it wanted to install a new driver [17:11] So I let it. It also installed new firmware and made Bitlocker refuse to unlock my hard drive without the full decryption key instead of just the pin. Naughty. [18:04] I just use truecrypt and a thumb drive [18:41] I store the decryption key in the TPM instead of using a thumb drive but hardware changes will invalidate it. That includes new versions of firmware. [19:45] tpm? [19:47] trusted privacy module [20:14] platform [20:17] who do i trust [21:02] haven't heard of it [21:03] If you have a modern computer you probably have one. [21:05] Truecrypt doesn't use it though.
