<0> xD
<1> well if you live somewhere.. usualy you have plumbing, and a water source right?
<0> its like all the nice desert stuff with none of the problems
<0> ya but its not always cheap ?
<1> oh
<2> you could always make money by being a rattlesnake farmer :-P
<3> what package is aticonfig a part of?
<0> here its more than we payed in CA (only cause we were on a well water
<2> soulmata: I take it you don't have it installed?
<1> oh
<2> soulmata: maybe ati-drivers-extra?
<1> its expencive here in southern CA though
<3> CannedBar,
<3> it's part of ati-drivers, i just didn't have it in my path
<3> so i wasn't finding it
<3> found it now
<3> i've been so pissed as to why linux got an hour less battery life than windows was getting
<3> and i knew it was the video card
<3> and viola, i now found out how to underclock the video card using fglrx
<3> hooray battery life
<2> ah. I wasn't sure, don't have gentoo on my ati machine. unless you count a laptop with a Rage 3D-XL (Mach64 chipset)
<1> yeah.. clocking stuff down on laptops gains a lot of battery life
<2> soulmata: what vidcard?
<3> CannedBar, x700 pci-ex
<3> 64mb dedicated
<3> winders is getting around 3 hours, 15 minutes battery life
<3> but linux was getting 2 hours, 20 minutes
<3> tops
<3> now it says 2:08 left at 80% battery
<1> does your processor support scaling?
<3> still not perfect, but better
<3> yes
<2> it should
<3> and yes i have it enabled
<1> cool
<3> and yes i have LCD dimming enabled
<3> and yes the LCD is at the dimmest setting
<1> hdparm?
<2> what about voltage adjustment?
<3> that's done automatically when powernowd scales the power state of the processor
<3> laptop_mode is installed and turned on
<2> soulmata: no, I mean tweaking the levels used by powernow
<3> acer acpi module is loaded and running
<3> CannedBar, i have it set to the lowest setting
<3> it can't go lower than what it's at
<3> processor doesn't support it
<2> so the machine crashes if you go lower?
<3> no, you can't go lower
<3> there is just no option
<3> the processor itself has only a few states it supports
<1> hard drive power down?
<2> oh, I guess I thought amd was like intel in that you can tweak the voltages used at each level, I guess not.
<0> >.>
<0> im talking to a friend about her weed >.>
<2> tell her to cut it
<0> I am weird
<0> i dont drink i dont smoke and a dont do drugs*
<0> (*excepting caffene)
<0> excluding*
<0> cant get enough of that good old C8-H10-N4-O2
<1> C20H25N3O
<0> bad athnex
<1> haha
<1> LSD
<1> nah, I dont do drugs
<0> you know that stuff will light your face on fire right
<1> Im afraid to even take like, pain killers
<1> asprin or anything
<0> good
<0> hmm
<1> yeah kind of
<1> I was prescribed some anti-biotics once
<0> you dont get migraines/headaches much do you ?
<1> and I totally didnt eat them
<1> cause I was afraid to
<1> no, I get sick like, once or twice a year..
<3> ok cool
<1> and thats just a normal cold
<3> just by doing the vid card underclocking
<4> Athnex is just sick minded
<1> yeah I am.
<3> my battery life goes from barely 2 hours
<3> to 2 hours 45 minutes
<1> soulmata.. there is a laptop, I can get you the model.. but its SLI 7800GTX's in it
<1> and like.. it gets 45minutes on a 6600mah batt
<3> that's pathetic
<3> the 2 batteries i have for mine are 4400mAh
<3> at roughly 2.5 hours a pop,
<1> my ibook still gets about 5 hours
<3> that gets me through a plane ride without having to ditch my addiction to my pcs
<3> Athnex, i was interested in some very long life laptops,
<3> but i decided i wasn't willing to trade away things like good hardware 3d support, dedicated video memory, large size hdd, large amounts of ram, etc
<1> some of the old powerbooks have two battery slots
<1> so you can swap bats all day
<1> and get 10 hours on two
<1> yeah
<1> I am happy with my ibook at 7 hours new... 5 now.. at about a year and 9 months
<1> or two years.. I dont know yet
<0> anyone here gonna buy one of those $100 laptops next year ?
<1> the OLPC ones?
<2> I know it is for charity, but I'm not paying $300 for one of those.
<1> they aren't suppose to be anything high powerd
<1> just, educational ones
<0> nah
<0> 500mhz
<1> are you familiar with the project?
<0> 128 ram
<1> they are planning 512mb cf cards
<0> i figure it will be something to fiddle with
<2> I like the screen technology though
<1> oh yeah.. Im sure it will be fine for that
<1> just not general computing when you can get other stuff
<1> but definatly intresting to play with
<0> its got USB so storage is no big deal
<0> *pats his 300 gig external drive*
<1> yeah, I got a little wince, MIPS based portable system working with netbsd
<1> (which is harder than it seems)
<1> touchscreen and everything, just couldnt get a network connection working so I couldnt get the ports system to work
<2> mips, xscale, risc, and x86 embedded; all forced into running linux here
<1> 133mhz MIPS R4000 proc
<1> a NEC machine, forget the model number though
<1> but, 640x480 screen
<1> wanted ovlm to run on it, twm is horrid..
<2> can't remember the model number, but it's a 64bit risc device here device here.
<1> but its fun to drag windows with the stylus
<5> NO
<2> YEZ!
<5> time to die
<0> oh rly?
<0> *points at the owl*
<4> ? death
<2> ?? life
<0> ??? 42
<4> 24
<0> 6*9
<6> anybody know of an app where i can connect to a server and get the raw response
<0> telnet?
<6> it doesn't seem to return it raw
<6> i can't get HTTP headers out of it
<0> http headers ?
<0> isnt there a firefox plugin for those ?
<2> Obsidian: you have to make a request first...
<6> CannedBar: i did
<6> i write GET
<6> it returns ****e with no headers
<2> then there aren't any headers....
<2> unless you are using some fubar'd telnet client.
<6> im using the one on this shell
<6> FBSD
<7> anyone here use dansguardian with ipcop?
