mha: :]
GNU\colossus: I just don't get it how to specify alarm levels for lm-sensors...
GNU\colossus: is anyone familiar with the process and can hold my hand? ;)
cxo: whats the oldest gpu that had vdpu support?
vital: http://www.winehq.org/news/2009011601
Kano: michaellarabel: i am still waiting ;)
cxo: get in line
Milyardo: Yeah what he said
Milyardo: Add your own options
Milyardo: Patches are Welcome too :)
Milyardo: lol
Kano: i dont know php that well
maligor: cxo, some of the 8000 series
maligor: the original G80 8800's didn't
cxo: thanks
michaellarabel: Kano: Been across the country all day, did write patch though but didn't have Internet connectivity at the time
redeeman: michaellarabel: he's not here
michaellarabel: Kano: Been across the country all day, did write patch though but didn't have Internet connectivity at the time
Kano: ah
Kano: well compiling wine 1.1.3, did you add a notice yet?
michaellarabel: Not yet, I just got back a few minutes ago.
Kano: well usually i would have compiled it yesterday already
redeeman: ?
Kano: it is out for 8h now ;)
redeeman: just new version of wine you talking about?
Kano: yes, every 2nd friday evening
Kano: at least in europe
redeeman: i wonder if i dare get nvidia 180
Kano: sure, works fine
redeeman: not for everyone on nvnews.net
Kano: xinelib + vdpau works now with some mkv already, not all however
Kano: wine-1.1.13 running...
Kano: and for all kanotix users uploaded
Kano: Ubuntu 9.04 Alpha 3 is the latest code based upon the Linux 2.6.29 kernel???
Kano: michaellarabel: where do you see 2.6.29 on ubuntu?
mha: ?=!=!=! omg.
michaellarabel: Kano: Fixed. The link was to 2.6.28 but I mentioned .29 by mistake.... Long day.
Kano: well i compile those kernels from git, i would have noticed it before i guess ;)
michaellarabel: Kano: pts-core: Add SymLinkFilesFromCache option to user-config.xml for linking files from download-cache instead of copy will be pushed to server in a minute
Kano: fine, will try it
Kano: changeing a configfile is more easy than patching it
Kano: because you would have to do that always
Kano: maybe i could do a new test iso
michaellarabel: Pushed
Kano: maybe with smokin-guns
Kano: but with a modified install script for that game of course
Kano: the most benchmarks are so huge
Kano: not good for cd size
Kano: universe is way too big
Kano: even for dvd
Kano: with the first release the universe suite was ok, but now...
michaellarabel: k
Kano: do you have got something smaller?
michaellarabel: smaller than?
Kano: universe, with some basic test
michaellarabel: hmmm
michaellarabel: pcqs-motherboard maybe
Kano: hmm, did that new version overwrite all userconfig
Kano: even the cache dir setting
Kano: maybe i forgot to change it after testing yesterday
michaellarabel: it shouldn't overwrite them
Kano: did you try that ut2004 test with speedstep enabled
Kano: that is very sensitive to this setting
michaellarabel: nope
Kano: the mainboard test is too big too
michaellarabel: then run: phoronix-test-suite build-suite :)
Kano: it should not be bigger than 1 gb installed size
Kano: to run it fully in ramdisk
michaellarabel: I'll be back later.
Kano: it would be possible to put the install packages in the uncompressed space
Kano: but when you want to bench running those from cd/dvd is too slow
Kano: at least the first run, when something is loading data
Kano: compile in ram would be real fast
Kano: it would be good if you could write which mirror you are using when downloading a file
Kano: that speed for ut2004 demo is extreme...
Kano: 2600 kb/s
Kano: sometimes more
Kano: i guess you should ask gentoo.chem.wisc.edu to mirror your files ;)
Kano: mirror.mcs.anl.gov is also fast
Kano: does anybody know an option for ut2004-demo that aspect ratio of the osd looks better on 16:10, some circles look like ellipses
redeeman: haha, look top slashdot
redeeman: seagate really better shape up
Kano: heise was faster ;)
cxo: is n00b00n2 9.04 going to be LTS?
Kano: i think every 2 years
Kano: so 10.4 or something around that
cxo: lost his pick
