<0> chotchki: maybe it doesnt double check some things if ecc is enabled
<1> elo redduck666 :)
<2> i trie 'modprobe glx', it says Module glx not found
<3> hi GiGaHuRtZ
<4> hey, is it a standard metric that a 30min tv show is ~180 meg is filesize?
<0> Quiznos: yeah around that for your average xvids
<3> sarefo, that means that module named 'glx' ain`t present
<0> search for average bitrate
<2> Quiznos: i guess that's a bit OT, but yes about 174megs, so four episodes fit on one cd
<5> it takes 1/12th of a 6-hour tape
<4> slpyhd but from tv - vcr - cd, that would hold true?
<2> redduck666: problem with my system is that glx seems to go down on an irregular basis
<4> sarefo cool
<2> that's why i'm trying to start it by hand.
<0> yes
<0> check out an rssfeed with series rips
<3> sarefo, maybe it is driver issue?
<2> every now and then (rather often actually) suddenly mplayer and xine won't work any more with -vo xv, and now wine wines about not having GLX
<4> sarefo ok, so, does it make sense to write raw video files from vcr straight to cd?
<5> _jose, I'm stumped here
<4> tanks bits
<2> redduck666: actually that could be. but you're sure that there's no quick'n'dirty way to get glx to run NOW? i have 8 minutes to edit a sound file in the minutes, don't have any running windoze, no working sound progs for linux (like audacity), and am trying to run goldwave over wine ;)
<6> What is the best way to see actual memory usage with linux?
<6> Is 'free' or 'vmstat' more accurate?
<3> sarefo, sorry, can`t help you :(
<2> redduck666: ok, thx anyway :)
<6> My question is actually, I just installed linux from scratch (fedora 4) and I have 1gb ram in it. free reports that 750mb are being used.
<7> jim, me too, write you later...
<6> I have not used linux since 1998? That seems a bit much if you ask me.
<6> I am not even running X.
<8> budward: the system will quite happily use all the ram it can find
<9> budward: *nix tends to use up all memory. We don't free memory until it needs the space.
<4> i'm so very close to doing a re-inst of slack8... i can almost taste it on my fingers
<10> I don't think there is any such thing as an MTA that has good documentation
<9> budward: what is of interest to you should be how much swap space you use and how man page faults per second you encounter.
<6> Uhm, I have other *nix's that don't report memory this way.
<4> i've been rm'ing pkgs, recovered about 1.5G from rootfs
<6> How would i know if I need more RAM or not then?
<4> budward which unices?
<9> er, how many page faults
<4> vmstat
<6> I have OpenBSD, NetBSD.
<4> then name em!
<4> dont say ``other unixes''
<10> free reports are misleading because of shared memory
<4> be happy to use them and name them
<4> only immature folken will castigate you.
<4> rofl
<9> budward: sar -B will show you page fault rate. Essentially, if you are having to use swap or having to rearrange memory (page faults) a lot then you need more.
<4> heh
<4> we have regular *bsd users here
<3> Quiznos, we have?
<4> yep
<6> Well, I am not a *nix basher .. I run both BSD and Linux and don't have an attitude about it.. I enjopy them both.
<6> err enjoy.
<4> then name them
<6> Quiznos scroll up?
<6> duh?
<4> no, "enjopy" is the right word!
<6> You missed it before your 'rant'.
<4> to where?
<4> blabla
<4> :)
<3> Quiznos, <6> I have OpenBSD, NetBSD.
<6> <6> I have OpenBSD, NetBSD.
<6> exactly.
<4> stuttererererers
<4> stereo
<6> Quiznos, to much coffee I bet *g
<4> not yet
<4> i'm workin on it
<10> I need to stop smoking. I feel like bottled a-hole
<10> I stopped for a year and started a month ago and it's killing me
<4> Jabberwock !
<10> Quiznos !!
<6> Anyhow, How can I realisticall tell if I need to upgrade RAM or not?
<4> wazzuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup
<6> Jabberwock I have 7 month of no smoking under my belt
<6> it is really hard man, I feel for you.
<10> budward: Use a package like sar to determine your daily resource usage
<4> budward watch the swap space
<10> budward: I stopped for a full year.
<10> after 12
<6> Also, can I add more swap space on the fly?
<4> budward what's the real ram amount and swap amt?
<4> yes, you can add more
<3> budward, mkwsap and swapon
<6> cool, you guys are really helpful.. I have not admin'd a linux boxen in a few years.
<6> a lot surely has changed.
<4> bud? how much real ram do you have?
<11> how come tech support guys always end up just sitting there typing up memos and disclaimers?
<11> heh
<4> heh
<4> delegation
<5> boxen is mroe than ome box :)
<4> geek-plu-plural
<5> so "a boxen" is just weird :)
<4> nah
<11> hell if they want to pay that kind of money for that then I'm all about it :D
<4> emphatic
<6> memic: 2055400k av, 2020080k used, 35320k free, 0k shrd, 166048k buff
<10> Boxen and whilst are my least favorite and most over-used cliches imho
<10> If you're gonna speak in Old English, do it fully
<6> that is according to top.
<10> Don't mix "whilst" with normal speech. It makes you sound like a turd
<4> bud i'm just lookin for like, "i have 512k" for what you have
<6> I have 2G
<4> wow, that's not enough. lol
<10> budward: Are you running oracle?
<10> Or 5 instances of X?
<11> saying boxen whilst speaking is kind of weird too
<11> lol
<6> Uhm, that machine has over 400 websites on it?
<4> budward umm
<4> maybe a beowulf cluster with dynamic task migration would help you.
<5> that could explain why it's running out of ram :P
<4> use more of those low-end boxen you have lyin around?
<10> STOP SAYIING BOXEN
<6> I just upgraded the ram his morning to 4G
<10> you meatball.
<4> byte me
<4> lol
<5> foxen in soxen?
<6> but I want to be able to tell how much ram is actually being used?
<12> budward: do you have highmem support in the kernel ?
<4> roxen to the casbah
<4> use free
<6> vmstat on BSd reports ram usage a bit differently then linux
<7> jim, i'm back
<13> budward: free -m ?
<7> so, where were we?
<10> Who sews whose socks? Sue sews Sue's socks. Who sees who sew whose new socks, s ir? You, see Sue sew Sue's new socks, sir
<5> stumped.
<5> howbout restoring from your backup?
<14> does anyone go to the gym? i wanted to ask a few things
<10> defcon8: yes
<10> the Y
<4> the Y is too far for me
<14> oh hi Jabberwock
<3> Jabberwock, the 'Y'?
<10> And no you shouldn't bring a digital cam into the locker room
<10> defcon8: hi
<7> how?
<10> redduck666: ymca
<7> hey, is there any way i can contact you later? i must go now
<15> hi , i'm having some trouble getting ipw2200 module working correctly, each time i try to load it i get this error 5 times, ipw2200: Failed to send TX_POWER: Command timed out.
<4> heh
<6> the question is .. On my workstation though .. I have 1gb ram .. but 'free' reports 750MB being used... it's a fresh install.
<3> Jabberwock, 'Young Men's Christian ***ociation'?
