| 00:00.54 | tuppa | rightmike: I used to use the Debian woody image linked from UML's website |
| 00:01.03 | nono31 | abrotman: not bug yet |
| 00:01.04 | tuppa | I guess one thing to watch out for is the devfs issue |
| 00:01.28 | abrotman | nono31: i don't use nvidia .. you can try asking there .. i haven't seen anyone here with the same issue yet |
| 00:01.40 | cafuego | sleek: Compile a few kernels... if the conpiles don't fail you should be right. |
| 00:01.54 | tuppa | but rootstrap shoudl work out of the box if you don't need networking |
| 00:02.00 | abrotman | and use -j5 each time :) |
| 00:02.15 | tuppa | (and have your basic woody packages handy) |
| 00:02.16 | sleek | cafuego: so basically just do cpu-intensive stuff? |
| 00:02.21 | cafuego | sleek: yep |
| 00:02.26 | nono31 | abrotman: I'll go down to the road of perdition.. #nvidia... |
| 00:02.30 | sleek | cafuego: and compiling is the most cpu-intensive? |
| 00:02.37 | abrotman | nono31: sorry |
| 00:02.43 | cafuego | sleek: if the cpu overheats or faisl, the app in question will exit with an error. Normally a bus error or segfault. |
| 00:03.21 | cafuego | sleek: Compiling a kernel is an easy way of making a cpu do a lot of work without having to install and cfg a benchmark app. |
| 00:03.27 | michal_ | does anyone know how to add an include path to something like the X11 build system? |

A virtual window popuped up... the linux kernel performed a journal disk check and then it failed when loading the network stuff |

| 00:06.17 | cafuego | michal_: Just add it to CFLAGS when running the ./configure |
