<0> I have a question! :D
<0> What is the difference between i586 and i86-64?
<0> I want to get mandriva on my notebook
<0> my notebook has a Amd mobile 64 chip
<0> Does anyone know which one I should have then?
<1> the other is obviously 64 bit
<0> Ok
<0> But then what is 586?
<0> For which computers is that?
<2> 586 is a 586-instruction-set processor
<2> if you don't know what type of processor you have, just name it here, and we can tell you
<1> such as pentium, if I recall :)
<2> yeah the original pentium
<0> Amd mobile 3100+
<0> original pentium is 386 right?
<1> no, that's a 386
<1> .)
<0> The one I have?
<1> no no
<0> It says it's 64 bits
<0> ohw ok ;)
<1> 386 is a 386, 486 is a 486
<1> original pentium was 586
<0> Ok
<2> SGL: I believe that processor is a 686 instruction set
<0> Cool
<1> that's like old stuff :)
<1> I still have a couple of Pentium1's
<0> sha1sum: if I have to choose between i586 and i86-64, what do I choose?
<2> it should be backward compatible... you can use 386-compatible for safety
<2> 586
<2> not 64
<0> Seriously?
<0> Ok
<2> I don't know much about that processor
<3> hrmmmmmmmmm
<2> lemme check
<0> Ok
<3> something very very odd here
<3> du -hs /var/lib/mysql says 290M
<3> I'm busy importing wikipedia into mysql
<3> and its processed 1.9 million pages so far
<3> there is no way in HELL thats only 290M :p
<2> yeah 586
<0> ****
<0> Then I've been downloading the wrong one!!
<0> sha1sum: where did you find this?
<2> hehe
<0> I have been looking a long time for this information
<0> I only found that AMD mobile chips used i86 technology
<0> But wasn't sure about the -64
<4> general question: if your motherboared manufactorere provides you with linux drivers (nvidia nforce) why woudl you prefer using buld in drivers with your distribution?
<0> manufacturers don't always build the very best drivers
<0> some people that build drivers as a hobby sometimes make better ones
<5> is there any way to find out what kind of memory modules are installed in my system
<4> coming from the windows environmnet I loaded the drivers for dma and performance I take it this is not the case with linux?
<2> hey SGL
<2> it looks like it is a 64-bit processor
<2> hehe
<0> Yes I know
<0> :)
<0> I am just too much of a linux-noob to know for sure wether to take the 586 or 86-64
<6> [Question] Anyone know of a good script to drive gnuplot using sar data? I found sarcheck which is not free. sar2gp has issues with current sar format. Anything else out there?
<0> because mandriva's documentation is baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad
<4> SGL so in a case where the nforce may be blockign dma support it woudl be best to let linux choose?
<2> then use the 86-64
<2> sorry
<2> wasn't familiar with sempron at all
<0> No problemo
<2> just did a speed-read
<2> hehe
<0> Runes: I don't know. I only knew the fact I just mentioned, that manufacturs not always make the best drivers
<2> http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/TechnicalResources/0,,30_182_739_11683,00.html
<4> SGL, ok got it
<4> sha1sum, sempron is 586 cl***
<2> weird
<4> sha1sum, 32 bit
<2> 32 bit?
<0> sha1sum: http://www.amd.com/us-en/***ets/content_type/Downloadable***ets/Press_Presentation_MobileA64_3000.pdf
<4> yup
<4> has two 64 bit registers but 32 bit os will run on it not 64 bit
<7> hi all. i'm having trouble ssh'ing to a server, but can telnet in on port 22 - is it possible to run commands from inside the telnet session somehow?
<4> sorry 2 32 bit
<2> oh it says on the techsheet that it is "compatible with existing 32-bit code base"
<2> that's the only reason I thought it was 64
<4> sha1sum, exactly
<2> i thought it was meaning "I'm 64-bit, but backward compatible"
<2> hehe
<4> on socket 754 if memory servers..it is just a cache trimmed athlon
<4> but good performace for 32 bit
<2> 256k L2
<4> socket 939 you get true 64 bit
<2> gotcha
<2> so he should actually be sticking with the regular 586 instruction set then
<0> Is this still about my 3000+?
<2> ?
<4> 939> (940 you're looking at "server" cl*** and cost cpu)
<2> SGL: yes...
<4> sha yup
<2> okay
<2> SGL: pay no attention to the man behind the nick
<2> heh
<4> I amy not know a lot about linux but that part I'm shure of
<0> they say that this runs on x86 technology
<0> That is what I literally found
<4> x86 is the architecture
<2> yeah any of the instruction sets from 386 thru 586 should work
<0> damn
<4> ie ibm 386 is x86
<4> amd is x86
<0> then why do they call the chip 64???
<0> pfffft
<0> lame
<8> does anybody know anything about dslinux?
<4> duron sempron x86
<9> Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
<9> target prot opt source destination
<9> TCPMSS tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp flags:SYN,RST/SYN tcpmss match 1400:1536 TCPMSS clamp to PMTU
<9> what does that mean ?
<4> socket 939 x86-65
<4> x86-64 (oops)
<10> heh
<4> not a true 64 sgl
<0> ok
<0> :S
<0> Then I'll download some more I guess :D
<4> will do 64 inside but bus is 32 bit
<4> no real advantage
<2> ProN00b: I believe it's allowing any tcp communication to forward with the SYN and RST flags
<2> s/and/or*
<8> i'm wondering if i could run apache on dslinux
<4> SGL go to www.tomshardware.com
<4> SGL it will give you a rbeakdown on processor types and architecture
<9> sha1sum, which means ?
<0> ok thx runes
<9> i am a gateway for everyone or something ?
<4> np SGL
<11> tomshardware.com is a good site, i've been to it a few times
<9> Brett18, you better get some other linux dsl isn't really good
<12> is anyone familiar with a way to boot an ISO image (or other format) from within a linux envonment?
<9> Brett18, try for example slax, or knoppix even maybe
<9> coded1, what do you mean with boot ?
<8> but i want to use dslinux
<8> for nds
<4> SGL also one of my favories is the pc upgrade repair and maintenace guide--huge but a good reference
<8> i want to try running a webserver on it :)
<13> uhuh, very through but really big
<13> throrough*
<12> ProN00b, i have a pxe boot strap which will give me linux with no hdd but I have other things like xp install images I would want to run
<0> runes: a book?
