lotuspsychjelol03:29
histojust spent an hour screwing around with legacy nvidia drivers in arch. I was installing the package for the lts kernel and wasn't even running lts kernel. FML03:35
lotuspsychjefor wich card histo ?03:37
histoold nvidia 9500 gt03:43
histolotuspsychje: I was using their nvidia-340xx-lts package instead of nvidia-340xx03:44
lotuspsychjekk03:44
histolotuspsychje: sitting there stumped as to why the module wouldn't load.  Well I wasn't using linux-lts03:44
lotuspsychjeTJ-: good morning05:39
TJ-Morning :)05:39
TJ-Just started a kernel test-build of my loop device enhancements, I think it's about done05:40
lotuspsychjecool!05:41
TJ-Took the dogs out at 0430 and 1 of the Huskies decided to run off, then the Collie too. Both came back an hour later just as I was settling down to code :)05:42
lotuspsychjehuskies are beauty05:42
TJ-Yeah, got 2 of them, one Silver one Pepper, both with blue eyes. Luckily we've got a large farm for them to run on so its not too bad if they run off as long as they don't stray too far05:45
lotuspsychjeyeah those dogs need big space05:45
lotuspsychjebrother of my gf, has adopted a huskie too in their small house...05:46
lotuspsychjethats so putty05:46
lotuspsychjeput the dog in bench and only 1h a day walking...05:46
lotuspsychjepitty05:46
TJ-Yeah... you can't give them too much exercise, although they like being lazy when they're at home whereas the Collie is constantly on the go. He's great though, got him to round the Huskies up when they run off and he does - treats them just like Sheep :)05:47
lotuspsychjecool05:48
lotuspsychjeTJ-: a guy fixxed his intel ssd on IDE mode this morning, he mentioned your name06:04
TJ-oh yeah, I remember that. I suggested he try it with a single SSD connected to the SATA controller to see if it still dropped the link to SATA 106:10
TJ-Did he say precisely what he'd done/achieved?06:10
TJ-I think it was hogslammer?06:10
TJ-He was hit with a bad combination of an Intel X25-E SSD and an ASRock Z77 extreme 4 motherboard that has an Intel SATA 2 chipset on. With the link in AHCI or RAID mode the SATA 2 SSD can't bring up the link and errors until it falls back to SATA 1. Only IDE mode allows the SSD to use the link with SATA 2. Intel engineers acknowledge the problem which is caused by a power mismatch06:21
TJ-Basically, the SATA specification gives a minimum-maximum range the devices must support. Unfortunately, the motherboard only uses the minimum but the drive requires the maximum06:21
lotuspsychjeTJ-: he fixxed his issue by setting bios to IDE07:49
lotuspsychjemorning EriC^^ and ObrienDave07:49
* ObrienDave waves hello07:50
EriC^^morning lotuspsychje07:51
lotuspsychjehi mate :p07:51
ObrienDavewell darn, sleepy time. *waves*07:52
TJ-lotuspsychje: yeah, I'd recommended that originally and he did but then got into a complaining session about having spent all that money on the hardware and unable to use AHCI , which was when I recommended he test it with only 1 SSD connected in case that helped the power-starvation issue07:59
lotuspsychjeTJ-: but will IDE mode perform good read/write speeds?08:00
lotuspsychjeTJ-: some systems dont even boot an ssd on IDE08:00
TJ-It gives him SATA 2 instead of SATA 108:01
lotuspsychjeweird08:02
