Kano: hi michaellarabel
Kano: michaellarabel: how to bench with external wine?
Kano: as it tries to dl wine 1.1.7 for the gfx tests...
Kano: install wine-graphicsinstall wine-graphics
Kano: install wine-graphics
Kano: thats what i tested
Deanjo: michaellarabel, did you ever commit changes to pts-functions_system_parsing.php for calling on lspci for distro's that require an absolute path yet?
michaellarabel: Deanjo: What distros require the absolute path?
Deanjo: lots of them, opensuse for example, bluewhite, a few more off hand
Deanjo: otherwise you have to be root to call on it
michaellarabel: hmm I thought it was working fine on OpenSuSE, but I'll check again.
Deanjo: Processor: AMD Phenom 9850 Quad-Core @ 3.01GHz (Total Cores: 4), Motherboard: ASUSTeK M3N-HT DELUXE, Chipset: Unknown, System Memory: 7989MB, Disk: 20GB, Graphics: GeForce 8800 GT 512MB (600/900MHz), Screen Resolution: 1600x1200
michaellarabel: I have OpenSuSE 11.1 still on my NC10 Atom so I'll fire it up in a second.
Deanjo: k
maligor: oh cool, shops are listing phenom ii's
maligor: 229.90 €
Deanjo: Ya, my local mom and pop shop has one set aside for me
maligor: for 920
Deanjo: hmmm, looks like it's detecting the wrong desktop enviroment too
Deanjo: Desktop: KDE 4.1.3
Deanjo: I'm using 3.5.10
michaellarabel: Deanjo: Do you have kded4 running on your system at all?
Deanjo: I have KDE4 base libs on the system
Deanjo: as far as the rest of it, no
michaellarabel: kde4-config is included by the base libs, yes?
Deanjo: yes
michaellarabel: Since I am not much of a KDE user... Is there a kded3 or what process can be used to identify that KDE 3 is active
Deanjo: I'll have to check how some xchat scripts are checking
michaellarabel: k
michaellarabel: Deanjo: Just pushed OpenSuSE lspci support
Deanjo: That will work :D
michaellarabel: Let me know when you figure out how kde3 detection works
Kano: michaellarabel: why does wine-graphics try to install wine?
Kano: i stopped download and it used the external wine
Kano: also you must have a big error in your tool
Kano: you dont copy .Xauthority to your override HOME
Kano: therefore xhost +x is required
Deanjo: michaellarabel, http://pastebin.com/m40b09231
Deanjo: it's just kde-config --version for kde 3
Deanjo: michaellarabel, if you do: echo kde${KDE_SESSION_VERSION}-config it will reply kde-config for 3 and kde4-config for 4
Kano: Deanjo: you have that tool even when you dont use kde right now but a kde appp installed
Deanjo: ok
Deanjo: Do you have a reliable way of detecting what desktop enviroment is being ran?
Deanjo: In the current session that is
Kano: KDE_FULL_SESSION=true
Kano: i have got here in my env
Deanjo: Isn't that already set with the startup scripts
maligor: GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID=Default
Kano: Deanjo: i guess so
Kano: you would have to look for other unique env vars
maligor: DESKTOP_SESSION
maligor: check that
maligor: gives me: DESKTOP_SESSION=gnome
maligor: it might be specific to gdm or gnome tho
Kano: thats default here
Kano: nothing with kde or gnome
maligor: must be the dm then
maligor: the gdm/xdm/kdm that is
Kano: sure
Kano: the problem is when you only check for running programms then it is not always the correct choice
Kano: because you can login more than once
maligor: or have more than one de running
maligor: I think it made the notification area go mad tho
maligor: running another DE in a nested server that is
Kano: you can have multiply xservers in another vt
Kano: like you can run
Kano: startx $(which startkde) -- :1
maligor: I know that too
Kano: then in one youc an have gnome and in the other kde
Xemanth: Deanjo: "Just got a clients Asrock A770DE system displaying the same issues." you got reply :)
Deanjo: No actually it's displaying the same symptoms in windows
Deanjo: usb is kicking out on it
Deanjo: Are you using a usb drive that is powered by USB alone Xemanth ?
Deanjo: I'm thinking that the USB ports are just not able to handle current loads that are near max current draw
Deanjo: wonders if OS X will run on this MB
Xemanth: Aight: Deanjo yes self powered memory stick
Xemanth: ups
Xemanth: -aight =)
Deanjo: Ya it looks like the USB port isn't giving enough juice. Do you have a powered hub you can plug in and then plug your usb stick into it?
Xemanth: unfortunately not
Deanjo: I'm really starting to thing that these ATI chipsets simply don't have the umph to keep devices powered off the mb ports
mattmatteh: Deanjo, all i had was a mouse plugged in
mattmatteh: and before that i was using the hub on my dell lcd
mattmatteh: neither worked
mattmatteh: or didnt work too long
Deanjo: Ya, your dell lcd though is passive though I think
mattmatteh: uhh
mattmatteh: meaning it didnt power any usb device ?
mattmatteh: that doesnt really say much. a mouse is a mouse. should just work
Deanjo: Right, I know. But a powered hub would isolate if it is a power issue
mattmatteh: oh
mattmatteh: i see
Deanjo: Since the device would draw it's power from the hub and not the mb usb port
Deanjo: Anyhows, gotta client with a emergency right now. Got to go fix it for them. be back in a bit
mattmatteh: but, how much current does a mouse need ?
Xemanth: i cai casdasdasdI can't believe that mouse could consume so much power that mobo can't give it :o
Xemanth: uups sry again
Xemanth: my irssi is doing something really weird stuff
Xemanth: sometimes it doesn't update screen that i have writted something
evocallaghan: Hi
evocallaghan: Michael around ?
cxo: hows it going Deanjo
