<0> all the traditional dishes were originally for people who slaved out on the ocean or on the fields all day and needed the energy
<0> not so much for sitting in front of a computer playing bzflag!
<1> so you say my ancestors were slaves? ;)
<0> life in norway in the 1800s and early 1900s was really hard, so in a way yes :)
<0> there's a reason half the country went to the US! :)
<1> oh man, I think I will feel bitter about that for a few hundred years
<1> i think the actual name for Vigesaa was Vikesa
<0> ah
<0> could it be Vikes?
<0> that's in the southwest
<1> not sure how it's spelled in norwegian, and the norwegian characters don't sho up right in this ubuntu install..
<0> ah ok
<0> but it probably is
<0> i was trying for the A with the halo over it :)
<1> population less than 300???
<1> is that metric? ;)
<1> what's the temp there today?
<0> where i live?
<1> yea
<0> let's see
<0> it's pretty warm
<2> 40C
<0> 1 degree
<1> it's about -21 C here...
<0> :O
<2> it's 40C here....
<0> are you sure you converted correctly from fahrenheit? :P
<1> yes, it's -5 F
<2> yup....
<0> didn't think you got that low temperatures in the us
<1> oh, this is a heat wave ;) lol
<0> do you live in Freezer, Alaska? :)
<1> i lied, it's up to -18 C now...
<1> i live in Wisconsin
<0> in point place??!?!?
<1> it's -18C and windy :P
<1> point place?
<0> it's the setting of that 70's show.. but it might now be wisconsin
<0> now = not
<1> ah, it's a fictional town in WI near Green Bay
<0> ah ok :P
<1> n 2001, a tornado siren malfunctioned and was unable to warn the residents of Siren that a tornado was coming
<1> lol
<0> oh god no
<0> horrible sounds from one of my harddrives
<3> time to do backups then
<0> yes
<0> and pray/sacrifice my first born/weep
<4> hey all
<0> i hate it when harddrives break.. wish they would invent something unbreakable :(
<4> windows user gona give ubuntu a try on vmware lookin fwd to it :)
<3> well, a ubuntu install doesn't is rather quik
<3> lol
<3> ubuntu install is rather fast
<4> was trying to work that out :P
<4> hmm got an old amd xp 2600. am i Intel x86, AMD64, UltraSPARC T1 or PowerPC
<3> I run windows from vmware
<4> i dont know which ver of ubuntu to nab
<4> do i want 6.06 or 6.10
<0> .10 had some problems last time i tried it
<0> i've been using .06 and it's just fine :)
<4> oki
<0> but the problems may have been resolved by now for all i know
<4> which ver do i get for an amd xp 2600 barton
<3> you should run 6.10
<4> and which of the subtypes?
<4> its not an amd 64
<5> i686
<4> i only see i386
<5> then use that
<3> you can install the optimized kernel for amd afterwards.
<3> I don't remember what it's called.
<4> ok
<1> use i386, and set vmware to boot from the .iso
<1> and i would use .06 too
<1> i run i386 on 64bit cpu's too for now..
<4> kk dling image now
<1> and then, do a switcharoo and run windows in a vm on ubuntu ;)
<4> thats what i plan :P
<4> once i got my head around ubuntu
<0> is there a big performance hit when running stuff in a vm?
<6> hello anyone know where to find the ubuntu hardware compatibility list ?
<6> i've searched the ubuntu site, google, the wiki site, not having much luck
<1> bardun: what will you be doing?
<1> my wife says my 4 year old daughter needs a computer.. .should I give her a ubuntu machine???? on a 4 year old computer? lol
<6> sounds good to me
<0> TiGgEr9: oh just wondering
<0> hehe
<6> is she can learn ubuntu she could surely learn windoze
<0> how does a 4 year old NEED a computer? :P
<6> so.. anyone know where i could find the ubuntu hardware compatibility list ?
<1> bardun: it isn't really a need...
<0> she can browse pacifier websites
<1> bardun: you don't want to do super CPU intensive apps in VM's...
<0> ah
<0> i can imagine
<1> or super memory intensive apps either for that matter.. unless you have a ton of either to share
<6> hmm
<1> i run vmware esx at work, and you can set limits to the amounts of CPU that a VM can take, and set up policies to make sure that specific vm's have priority on resources
<6> i see guides for installing hardware
<6> but no compatibility list
<1> i run pretty much everything in vm's but video editing and dvd building software...
<1> that I still have on a physical XP machine...
<6> am i on ignore ?
<1> at the office, web servers, ftp servers, windows domain controllers, dhcp, dns, radius, antivirus policy servers, network monitoring... all in vms...
<6> i found it by the way. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
<1> thanks quaal ;)
<6> sure wasnt easy
<1> i was only ignoring you cuz i didn't know the answer...
<1> and if i had to look for it, i figured you could too
<1> :)
<6> son of a bitch
<6> my motherboard isnt supported
<1> i was going to say, you must have known my mom ;)
<6> Asus A7N8X Deluxe
<6> MSI K7T266 Pro2 (MS-6380 ver 3)
<6> thats a pretty slim list
<6> for socket A mother boards.
<1> haha
<6> that ****s
<6> download is already halfway complete too
<1> i wonder what doesn't work in your board... it may just be on onboard sound card, nic, etc... very well may be that ubuntu installs on it
<5> what's your mobo?
<6> abit NF7-S
<6> i've run mandrake on it
<5> then you will be fine
<6> and possibly redhat
<1> i promise that more than 2 socket A boards run ubuntu fine..
<1> probably at least 3 ;)
<6> heh
<6> noted
<5> hardware compatibility is kernel based, not distribution based. Every distribution utilizes the same kernel base, if it runs in mandrake, you're pretty set with it running on ubuntu
<6> yea
<6> i was looking on here http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Hardware-HOWTO/
<6> they have more than that 2
<6> but still not mine listed
<1> more than likely, you are going to be cool... and then you can quit bitching about ubuntu, and resume bitching about windows ;)
<6> guess they just forgot it
<6> oh well
<5> tldp.org is known to be a bit slow with updating their guides, though they are good
<1> what would normally start dhcp3-server automatically?
<5> a startup script
<1> which one though
<1> one I woulld have to put in xinetd.d?
<5> see if it's in /etc/init.d/
<1> yes, it is
<5> if it is, you can use 'update-rc.d' to place it in the startup directories so it starts at boot time if necessary
<1> actually, i want to make sure it doesn't start at boot... i just installed it to pxe boot for a network install of ubuntu...
<5> then use update-rc.d to remove it from the boot directories
<5> e.g update-rc.d -f remove dhcp
<5> or is it dhcp remove... i always get it wrong
