<0> doesnt make sense what your saying dudie
<1> main2: consider this your first & last warning
<0> GO **** YOURSELF NOOB
<0> gb, '-gb- how very brave of you' << didnt i tell you to go **** YOUR SELF NOOB?
<2> I read somewhere that libata.atapi_enabled is no more needed for 2.6.16, but apparently it still is. Was my source wrong?
<1> cromo: depends on what's using it
<1> there are many ways too do things & you may find an alternative for it if you look in the right place
<1> please dont ask me what the right place is :)
<2> I don't really know what you mean actually. You mean there's some other way to set it to recognized atapi correctly?
<1> cromo: nope I'm saying you should get more information from your source who said it's no longer needed :)
<1> they might be correct, but it's nice too find out the alternatives
<1> what atapi device in particular do you refer too?
<2> dvd-rw
<2> which is pata over sata afik
<1> ahh ok
<1> you can also use scsi-emu but thats pretty lame in my opinion :)
<1> perhaps what they were referring too?
<2> I don't really remember, someone on his blog was listing new 2.6.16 features/enhacements and said that he no longer needs this particular setting on boot
<1> cromo: he might not, especially if he changed too using scsi-emu
<2> I am pretty mad here that I can't set my laptop to ahci mode - it's now in pata legacy that's obviously worse
<2> I see
<2> but isn't the scsi-emu what we used in 2.4 and abandoned for 2.6?
<1> cromo: without seeing the original statement in context it's difficult too offer advice
<1> well not difficult really, I could give you some lame advice :)
<2> are there some more advantages expect no need for libata.atapi... at boot? ;)
<1> cromo: yes but much of what was abandoned in 2.4 is slowly being integrated into 2.6 as alternatives
<1> takes a long time too rewrite the whole kernel
<1> the developers concentrate on getting the basics right, but occ***ionally have too resort too similar hacks that were employed in 2.4 too fix things
<1> thats my guess anyway :)
<2> ;)
<2> regarding the pros and cons, what do you think?
<1> I think emu anything ****s :)
<2> s/expect/except
<2> oh, I thought you were trying to encourage me to use scsi-emu ;)
<1> nope, I was just saying there are lotsa means n ways round issues
<1> that was one I was familiar with but avoid :)
<2> I see
<1> I personally dont have the luxury of owning a rewriteable dvd yet :)
<2> ;)
<2> better wait for blueray countrycode=276or whatever ;)
<2> sorry for the countrycode - pasted it by acident
<1> cromo: all my hardware comes via sources otherwise destined for landfill
<2> ;)
<2> have to go out with dog
<1> in some ways its good, like usually by the time I get the hardware there are drivers for it
<1> in others not so good, the reason its thrown out :)
<2> gb: I bought my laptop and thought it's not that technologically "advanced" until I run it here under linux ;) pata drives @ sata controller, x300 ati video card, pci-express lan - took a lot of time to make it all working
<1> cromo: does it have ir?
<2> it does, but I haven't tried it yet
<1> hehehe
<1> both my notebooks have ir, but too date I've not got lirc working with them
<2> had no need, thought that I can use bemused (bluetooth), but seems it is not developed anymore
<1> I was thinking of using my tv remote as an external number pad :)
<1> especially for nethack, etc
<2> now I think I'll try with lirc soon
<2> ;)
<1> uhuh have fun
<3> cromo is going out with a dog
<3> damn that ****s
