| ObrienDave | !mint | 22:26 |
| ubot5 | Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 22:26 |
| wileee | lol | 22:27 |
| ObrienDave | some ding-a-ling asking about mint in #blender ROFL | 22:28 |
| daftykins | :S | 22:29 |
| OerHeks | mint is a blender .. | 22:29 |
| OerHeks | in* | 22:29 |
| ObrienDave | yea, made no sense to me either LOL | 22:29 |
| OerHeks | does it fit on a cd? | 22:30 |
| ObrienDave | nope | 22:30 |
| ObrienDave | ;P | 22:30 |
| ObrienDave | blender, yes. mint, no way LOL | 22:31 |
| Bashing-om | Hey guys, I just worked a Nvidia driver re-install .. and the Nvidia 355 version is now available in the 14.04 repo . | 22:49 |
| daftykins | :O | 22:49 |
| OerHeks | not here .. | 22:52 |
| OerHeks | (15.04) | 22:52 |
| wileee | Bashing-om, Udita looks like a msdos with gpt sigs in the mbr, at a quick glance, was making some toast, | 22:57 |
| Bashing-om | wileee: I gt side tracked .. will return . | 23:06 |
| Bashing-om | Guys " sudo ubuntu-drivers list >> nvidia-355 : woohooo ! | 23:06 |
| wileee | no prob, of course, big HD I just wonder what is there | 23:07 |
| Bashing-om | wileee: Like you - mixed partitioning schemes; sda as msdos and sdb as GPT - not at all sure how to handle such a situation . If we boot from sda how does grub handle chainloading the OS on the sdb drive in GPT ? I just do not know . | 23:12 |
| wileee | Bashing-om, Rods has a fix that wipes the gpt, but it is always a risk, http://www.rodsbooks.com/gdisk/wipegpt.html | 23:13 |
| wileee | never seen it fail on the channel, but I watch my back, lol | 23:13 |
| wileee | can't tell either if the sdb is a flash | 23:14 |
| Bashing-om | wileee: Next question in respect to udita, is why does not 'parted' show us the partitioning on the sdb drive ? Humm .. | 23:14 |
| wileee | if the hd and flash are reversed as well not knowing what all is on either | 23:15 |
| wileee | sda is huge however | 23:15 |
| Bashing-om | wileee: Is not the GPT limit at 4 terabytes ? Then that large GPT is required for addressing ? | 23:16 |
| ObrienDave | gpt limit is something like 128 exabytes | 23:17 |
| wileee | I thought it was somewhere above 2tb or so was gpt in general, I have two external 2tb hd's both msdos | 23:18 |
| ObrienDave | 2TB limit for MBR | 23:19 |
| ObrienDave | above 2TB you need GPT | 23:19 |
| wileee | Bashing-om, Your point on a uefi/bios is important I believe, I've just not had a uefi to mess with. | 23:19 |
| wileee | I would normally have the user run the bootinfo script, it helps me anyway. | 23:20 |
| wileee | anyway coffee time for me, not a big issue other than the data there, that's as close to ocd I go regularly in worrying about. | 23:22 |
| Bashing-om | wileee: I be in the same boat. I surely hate making an error, and not having direct experience, well I am slow to make a suggestion in respect to GPT/UEFI . Given time, we can muddle through it .// Looks like udita may have got impatient and left ? | 23:22 |
| wileee | yeah left, lucky us, maybe doing a backup if there lucky | 23:23 |
| wileee | their* | 23:23 |
| ObrienDave | they're ;P | 23:23 |
| wileee | Bashing-om, as far as I know I have never bricked any computer besides my own, I worry about that always, I'm with you on that. | 23:25 |
| wileee | I'm only protecting my own booty though, always self serving here, ;) | 23:26 |
| Bashing-om | wileee: Yeah ! .. I got where I am today by breaking my system(s) many many times. I did learn to dual boot and not mess up my work station too much . | 23:26 |
| Bashing-om | wileee: udita: Does not UEFI system require GPT partition scheme ? | 23:48 |
