<0> Dagmar: So AMD has an x86 arch too? Sorry, but I know nothing about AMD...
<1> Yes, it is.
<2> I was surprised at how well the Mac version of Qemu, ran on my PPC Mac
<0> Dagmar: Hmm, good to know, thanks
<3> Any idea why, when I edit a script on live linux PClos, that it lists with an asterisk and will not run? "hmake5x*" is what it lists as...
<2> I think AMD only has an x86, unless you get an Operan or something like that
<4> <geek-mode>
<1> Even the opterons will run an x86 distro.
<0> So an AMD 64bit chip will run Linux?
<1> YES
<4> i postulate the existence of an operating system that is easy to use; not pedantic; and not ms
<4> </geek-mode>
<0> Cool :o)
<2> Alkeli should, they simply extended the x86 calls. and eventually Intel followed suit
<1> It's not that simple
<2> don't you love it when your download timer goes from 14:07 to 14:08 to 14:07 for time remaining?
<2> Dagmar, I'm sure it wasn't really simple, but probably easier than doing what Intel first did, and create a whole new architecture
<4> ++ time is called back-filing
<4> personal-update: my new kbd, manuf'd by G.E. is working out really well -- my fingers are quite comfortable and there is a click for feedback!
<4> the leds are red when activated
<4> i still have to program the 17 extra keys tho
<1> I'm sticking with my Zippy now that I have it working again
<4> whta's zippy?
<1> http://www.pcabusers.com/reviews/keyboards/zippy/p1.html
<4> cool
<1> Little bitty keyboad with half-height notebook-sized keys
<4> is it a smal form-factor
<4> nice
<1> Very quiet, impossible to miss in the dark.
<4> sweet
<4> internal lighting?
<1> EL backlight under the kyes
<1> s/kyes/keys/;
<4> cool
<4> i'd like to get a kbd for working in unlit room
<2> yesterday, I went to 4 stores looking for Microsoft's 4000 style keyboard (its an egronomic one) 3 of them were out of stock, the 4th never heard of it lol
<1> After about five years the EL part wears out, but that's basically normal for indiglo
<4> moodsoft, did it have backlighting?
<1> ...and like any keyboard I use can survive quite that long anyway
<4> Dagmar what do they cost?
<1> I'm still thinking about going the opposite end of the spectrum and getting one of those Logitech G15s now that there's Linux support for the display
<1> The Zippy is like $35-40
<2> Quiznos, I don't think so, it was just an egro keyboard
<4> cool
<4> ah
<5> Whoa, OpenSSH vulnerability discovered.
<1> Ooo
<6> PeterFA: url?
<4> .oO
<7> url?
<5> http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/04/01/1429232&from=rss
<6> and keep in mind which day this is folks.
<1> Probably an april 1st thing
<1> Thinkgeek.com has some funny stuff
<5> aye
<6> grin.
<1> They have vaporware for sale
<7> ya ya
<7> iwillwait
<1> Hahah
<1> Cuteoverload finally noticed they were /.'d
<8> I got a G15
<5> I hope I never do something that important that it gets on /.
<5> My computer will easily get pwned.
<8> but my dang Motherboard is odd.. usb keyboards dont work in grub.
<1> I used to live in fear of it, then I found a use for it
<5> Actually no, it would be over a dsl connectin.
<1> Make some stupid web page and put it on an ISP you hate
<8> if i enable legacy-usb - then the os's dont boot.. but grub works. :P
<1> Get it /.'d
<5> Dagmar, ah
<1> Legacy USB keeps the OS from booting?
<1> Grub wouldn't normally be able to see the USB keyboard otherwise
<1> I've been using Legacy USB in the BIOS for ages now so I have some control when LILO comes up
<1> The only problem with it that I've seen is that with certain misconfigurations of udev, you can wind up with the USB keyboard being seen as *two* keyboards which really freaks Linux out
<1> Basically, if the OS manages to actually see the thing on the USB bus.
<1> It's supposed to disappear from the USB bus and only be visible through the PS2 handler
<1> Cause... plugging your USB keyboard into ANY socket but the very first enumerated one on your mainboard.
<1> I was mainly wondering about how the keys *felt* and were they loud or not
<1> I heard something about them being made of soft plastic, and slightly spongy
<5> w00t, I fixed my computer.
<5> APRIL FOOLS
<5> (I run Gentoo)
<9> anyone in
<9> ?
<10> about 419
<9> nuxil, can you do me a small favour?
<10> depends
<10> what is it
<9> nuxil, can you /query me and run /exec -o man fortune ?
<9> nuxil, not on linux at the moment. :(
<10> hold on
<9> nuxil, alright, thanks.
<10> ehh i dont got fortune installed :(
<1> http://www.google.com/linux?hl=en&lr=&q=man+fortune&btnG=Search
<1> Sheesh
<9> nuxil, damn.
<1> Obligatory learn to effectively use search engines comment
<9> Dagmar, lmao. I shouldn't underestimate google ever again. Thanks a ton.
<1> Note that www.google.com/linux will get you Linux-specific stuff
<11> hmm... damn, google's aprils fools joke ****s
<1> Very handy for man pages especially. :)
<11> this year's stuff is lame compared to the other ones, though not as obvious
<1> www.2600.org was cute I thought
<12> hmm
<1> I kinda felt like we got trumped there
<9> excelblue, uh..
<9> excelblue, lol. This is the first time I've seen you in here. :P
<13> $db->sql_error(); <-- can i tell php if that code gives ANY errors die('my error message'); otherwise $var = $db->sql_error()?
<10> #php
<1> excelblue: You should read the tour part. It's not just that one page
<11> Dagmar: yep, read it
<14> any idea what family an amd sempron is for kernel config?
<13> nuxil: oops, wrong window.
<11> so, make it for pages: rejection, splash, FAQ, tour
<11> mmiikkee12: Athlon K7
<1> "...ha ha, wasn't that amusing and harmless and mostly in good taste and not all psychologically damaging under various and sundry aspects of contemporary tort law, please don't sue us; and/or"
<1> :D
<14> excelblue, sure? ;)
<11> a Sempron is simply an Athlon with reduced cache
<11> mmiikkee12: I'm pretty sure, if it runs, it works
<11> to be safe, just select i686
<10> nahh use k7
<9> excelblue, where is google's april fools joke?
<14> there's an i686 there?
<11> spyro_boy: it's google romance :)
<1> spyro_boy: Look at their top page closely
<11> a parody of google's way of advertising :P
<1> Well, more like an utterly inappropriate application for it
<11> mmiikkee12: sure there is... scroll up a bit
<14> 586/K5/5x86/6x86/6x86MX - is that i686?
<11> but um, the AThlon/Duron stuff would do way better
<11> uh... nope, that's 586
<11> 686 would be Pentium4
<9> excelblue, I
<15> Is there a reason a file in /etc/cron.daily will not run? The permission is the same as the other files and it works fine if I start it manually
<9> excelblue, I'm reading it. LOL
<11> mmiikkee12: even kernels compiled for P4 would work on Athlons and Semprons
<11> so there is no reason why you should not try Athlon/Duron/K7
<11> since a Sempron is simply an Athlon with less RAM
<11> * cache
<11> rhican: lol... um, don't worry, the register is completely contained within wine ;)
<16> hello world!!
<17> i don't know i ran the winetools registry editor thing, and i had wierd flashbakcs
<16> is there a secure way to resize a ReiserFS partition?
<11> psych0: gparted
<11> um... oh wait, just the plain parted bootable stuff
<16> excelblue: hum.. I tried qtpardet
<11> since gparted is not that stable from what I find about it
