Comments:
<0> thank you
<0> i think will do it
<1> hopefuly
<0> oh yes
<0> you are the man
<0> it works
<1> woo!
<1> and i've never even owned a 64 bit proc!
<1> \o/
<0> well hopefully 9 is out soon
<0> and i can custom compile firefox again
<0> this will do for now, its just as fast screw it
<1> i dont know if 9 will be 64 compat
<2> 9 of what?
<2> wait for vista, in about 6 months flash on 64 will work
<3> bitrot: i love you
<1> renihs|wr: **** vista
<2> :)
<0> screw windows
<1> indeed
<2> screw 64bit on a desktop
<0> everytime i jump ship the thing crashes within 3 months
<2> my gf runs a win2k since nearly 5 years
<2> runs smoothly
<2> you are doing it wrong :)
<2> except the disk is failing now
<2> linux kernel wont even boot with that disk attached to controller, win2k just dumps a bsod every few months
<1> win2k is quite a nice stable system
<1> at least they were smart enough to base XP off of it
<2> xp ****s in networking
<1> mmhmm
<1> i love win2k security control
<1> gives you so much control
<0> yeah but i can back up my linux servers at work with tar
<1> for a windows machine that is
<1> you could back up a windows machine with tar techincally
<0> and then restore them on machines with completely different hardware, and simply just compile its kernel accordingly
<2> gentoo, you can backup windows boxes with tar too
<1> but thats where it goes nuts
<0> as long as its the same arch
<1> new hardware
<1> it still can work
<0> yeah but its ugly on windows
<0> lol
<1> but it goes "WHAT THE ****?!"
<2> but the windows box in vmware, but vmware on a linux livecd -> works flawless
<0> linux you just slam in a new kernel off the gentoo universal cd
<0> and it works like a champ
<1> cuz the kernel is tailored to the hardware in gentoo
<1> unless you're a ***** and use genkernel
<4> Obsidian: even with the exact same hardware, windows throws a fit.
<1> CannedBar: different ID's
<0> i tried genkernel once and it messed my **** all up
<4> yeah
<4> err no....
<0> lspci + manual compile works like a champ
<1> hardware id is unique to each one
<1> gentooyay: and it makes it a ton smaller
<0> on any box
<1> and faster
<4> if I tar up a windows install, then attempt to untar to the exact same machine, it throws a **** fit
<2> smaller kernel doesnt make box faster
<1> CannedBar: and location of hardware on the busses
<0> yeah windows is retarded for backups, i dunno i use imaging to back up the windows server
<1> renihs|wr: not saying the size of the kernel, i'm saying there's less stuff compiled into the kernel
<0> and it works pretty good, as long as all the **** stays the same hardware wise
<2> my ~2mb/1400 modules kernel is as fast as a 500kb kernel
<5> Can anyone tell me how i might be able to fix this error. i emerged my wireless drivers and the wireless-tools but iwconfig shows no wifi card. http://pastebin.ca/135886
<1> yeesh, wireless, there's a headache
<1> http://pengu.in/~obsidianx/latest.jpg mm
<5> :)
<1> wireless is a dream once it works
<0> linux smokes windows for wireless tools though
<1> but for ease of installation
<0> esp if youre into wep cracking and other things
<1> mm air snort
<4> Obsidian: what is that dock?
<5> http://www.gtishrine.com/t60.php followed that wifi tut there. same wifi card.
<1> CannedBar: KXDocker
<6> hi Obsidian
<6> .
<5> anyone know how to fix this?
<1> oh dear
<0> get whoppix, and 6 pack , and go for a drive downtonw
<0> lol
<1> CannedBar: its the first bar i've ever used that doesn't crash when it tries to bounce an icon :P
<1> and doesn't steal things from the tray/taskbar and then keep them
<1> after they crash
<1> as in, no more access
<2> anyone remembers howto p*** shutdown sequence to an old nt4-kernel?
<2> on this box, shut down is greyed out (must be some security policy)
<2> gruml
<1> heheh
<2> wanna shut this thingie down...
<0> there is some way through rundll
<2> ya
<0> cant remember off the top of my head
<2> but cant remember
<1> do you have a power button thats not a hard-switch
<1> if nt4 has any kind of power saving it should read a power button click as a shutdown command
<0> i dont think nt4 was that smart
<2> ah got it
<0> er nm im thinking 98
<2> hehe, there even is a shutdown command on nt4
<2> but i like the rundll way more
<2> now it seems the cd-drive is dead
<2> gruml
<2> no usb
<2> how am i supposed to boot a linux there? :)
<2> hmm floppy kernel with rootfs on nfs?
<7> thrasher7: you around
<0> audio quality seems kind of crappy with alsa
<0> pops and static at higher volumes
<2> depends on driver :)
<0> nforce4
<0> garbage
<0> i guess ill have to go out and get a real sound card
<2> INTEL Core 2 Duo E6600, 2 x 2,40GHz, S-775, Boxed
<2> argl
<2> i want that thing availiable
<8> renihs|wr: I think tiger direct has Core 2 Duo cpus
<0> 2.6.17-gentoo-r4 #4 SMP Tue Aug 15 23:49:48 Local time zone must be set--see zic x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4800+
<2> do they transport to europe/austria?
<2> :)
<8> dunno
<0> oops i forgot the time zone crap during the install
<9> morning
<0> i want one of those new core duos they just released though
<0> they are uber
<2> yes they are
<8> gentooyay: thats what the Core 2 Duo is
<2> i ould be happy with an e6600 alreadsy
<0> i want the one that costs 1g new
<0> but il wait
<0> screw that price
<0> haha
<0> this box does ok
<2> Linux localhost 2.6.17-gentoo-r4.narf-livesystems-hms4 #5 SMP Wed Aug 9 08:49:27 Local time zone must be set--see zic m i686 AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 848 GNU/Linux
<0> have any of you guys tried the google earth for linux ?
<2> this box is better :)
<8> there's core 2 duo systems listed on ebay
<0> yeah thats an uber box
<1> gentooyay: i have
<0> it runs like crap on my machine for some reason
<0> laggy
<1> works nicely here
<1> 64bit possibly
<1> or video card
<0> i just put these new drivers from nvidia though
<1> what do you have
