Kilos | hi Xethron | 06:26 |
Symmetria | sup | 07:03 |
Symmetria | interesting, first time in my life I've actually flashed a bios to fix a problem and it fixed it | 07:03 |
Kilos | wow | 07:09 |
Kilos | yeah it works kiff | 07:09 |
Kilos | newer mobos come with the option in bios even | 07:09 |
Kilos | on older pcs you need to download and make a bootable stiffy with the new bios | 07:10 |
Kilos | hi ThatGraemeGuy rynomster | 07:10 |
Symmetria | heh my pc now has so much crap in it it wont start without a thousand watt PSU ;p | 07:19 |
Kilos | wow | 07:19 |
Symmetria | lol, its the video cards that suck power | 07:19 |
Kilos | do like me and put another psu outside | 07:19 |
Symmetria | heh I prefer not to run internal cards on a seperate PSU | 07:20 |
Kilos | reason? | 07:20 |
Kilos | just looks ugly imo | 07:20 |
Symmetria | well the last thing you want is to lose power on a PSU that is driving a PCI card while the other PSU keeps running | 07:22 |
Symmetria | shit will get really screwed up if that happens :) | 07:22 |
Kilos | then why you overloading that pc so. | 07:26 |
Kilos | mobo gonna crash soon | 07:26 |
Kilos | rahter use a server bay | 07:27 |
Kilos | rather | 07:27 |
Kilos | hi Vince-0 | 07:40 |
Vince-0 | ! | 07:42 |
Vince-0 | Kilos, ever vigilant | 07:42 |
Vince-0 | or is it lurking | 07:42 |
Kilos | im the greeter bot | 07:43 |
Kilos | did you read what was said at last nights meet | 07:43 |
Kilos | dbnlug has some stuff to share | 07:44 |
Vince-0 | ya there's always talk | 07:45 |
Symmetria | heh I need to start trying to mine bitcoins | 07:45 |
Symmetria | now that I got sufficient offload gpu capacity | 07:46 |
Vince-0 | eventually the electricity bill isn't worth the return | 07:46 |
Symmetria | lol I dont actually wanna put a power meter on my machine | 07:48 |
Symmetria | I fear to think how much its drawing with those video cards in it | 07:48 |
Kilos | hi aquarat | 08:07 |
charl | good morning | 08:30 |
charl | Maaz: coffee on | 08:30 |
* Maaz flips the salt-timer | 08:30 | |
Maaz | Coffee's ready for charl! | 08:34 |
charl | Maaz: thanks | 08:35 |
Maaz | charl: No problem | 08:35 |
Kilos | hi charl | 08:38 |
Symmetria | heh this ethernet over power stuff is so awesome | 09:39 |
charl | Symmetria: why? | 09:46 |
Symmetria | charl heh, 500meg from one side of the house to the other | 09:48 |
Symmetria | by plugging in 2 wall sockets | 09:48 |
Symmetria | saves a lot of effort, time and money in cabling | 09:48 |
Symmetria | heh, power over ethernet is something we've all become used to, ethernet over power though is something I'd heard of, but never had a chance to test | 09:49 |
Symmetria | now that I have tested it, I love it :P | 09:49 |
Symmetria | anyone know if any of the ubuntu live cds have built in nvidia drivers in them? | 09:49 |
Symmetria | cause I really wanna see if linux can handle this setup now that Ive changed it slightly, cause it sure as hell didnt like the old setup | 09:50 |
ThatGraemeGuy | Kilos: sorry, morning | 09:55 |
ThatGraemeGuy | and everyone else | 09:55 |
ThatGraemeGuy | and bye bye! closing up shop early | 09:56 |
Kilos | np | 09:56 |
ThatGraemeGuy | enjoy xmas / day off / whatever it means to each of you :-) | 09:56 |
Symmetria | ugh no one seems to know if there is an ubuntu live cd with nvidia drivers :( | 09:57 |
Kilos | ty same there | 09:57 |
charl | Symmetria: i don't have any nvidia cards, i always go for intel hd, so i wouldn't know either | 10:26 |
charl | Symmetria: friends of mine use ethernet over power in their house, they also use IPTV (FTTH) | 10:27 |
charl | Symmetria: when somebody plugs in a charger that creates interference, the tv starts picking up problems | 10:28 |
charl | the video feed starts hanging every few seconds | 10:29 |
Kilos | nouveau drivers work some | 10:35 |
Kilos | but to get the card going well you need the correct driver | 10:36 |
Kilos | also there is nvidia-current in the repos | 10:37 |
Kilos | i think it was current | 10:37 |
Symmetria | will get a live cd and play | 10:37 |
Kilos | yeah its nvidia-current | 10:38 |
Symmetria | hrm, can I just apt-get install that on a live cd, suppose I should be able to | 10:38 |
Kilos | yes | 10:38 |
Kilos | you can also install the driver for the card from the live cd but you lose it when you remove the cd and reboot | 10:39 |
Kilos | what ubuntu you wanna try Symmetria | 10:39 |
Kilos | the newer ones are dvd size 1.1g | 10:40 |
Kilos | what is ethernet over power? | 10:41 |
Symmetria | I'll go download one and stick it on a bootable usb stick or something so whatever size | 10:41 |
Kilos | ya thats fine. go with 13.10 | 10:41 |
Symmetria | kilos heh, there are these nifty adapters you plug into the wall, and you plug an ethernet cable into them, then you plug a corresponding unit into another wall and it uses the house power grid as if it were virtual ethernet cables | 10:42 |
Kilos | wow | 10:42 |
Symmetria | so you can plug 2 adapters in on opposite sides of the house and have ethernet over power | 10:42 |
Kilos | clever that. saves cabling | 10:42 |
Kilos | speed. it must surely be slower than cat5 cabling | 10:43 |
Symmetria | kilos about half a gigabit through the power at my house | 10:43 |
Kilos | wow thats good | 10:43 |

SabreWolfy | theblazehen: yeah solarized is awesome. Yeah, which WM you on? | 18:29 |
superfly | theblazehen: I use KDE with Oxygen and the Obsidian Coast theme, it's nicer than the Solarized colour scheme | 18:42 |
Kilos | night all. sleep tight | 19:27 |
theblazehen | charl, yep, tilng :D awesomewm | 19:38 |

charl | well, i use it :) but i guess it depends on what you're looking for | 20:14 |
theblazehen | I hear it supports splitting panes, like in tmux? Have you used that feature? | 20:16 |
charl | it has powerful window layout options but i'm not familiar with splitting of panes | 20:21 |
theblazehen | ah, kk, ty | 20:21 |
