16:24.18plarsen_workHow do you issue a "reconfigure" of X?
16:24.42plarsen_workI used to use Xconfiguration once ... buuuut I'm old and so is my toolset :(
16:27.03jsmithsystem-config-display --reconfig
16:27.08jsmithFor Fedora, at least
16:44.49plarsen_workjsmith: yeah, figured that out 5 minutes ago ;)
16:45.10plarsen_worknot the "reconfig" option - but it found out that the old wasn't working and did a reconfig automatically
16:45.39plarsen_workI've gotta start crashing more boxes so I can start getting used to the 'new' tools
16:47.56jsmithRight :-)
16:51.16plarsen_workactually this was a VMware guest convert to physical ....
16:51.17plarsen_workQuite fun
16:52.15plarsen_workI am, however, loving LVM more and more every day
16:53.10plarsen_workohhhh - and guess who's getting a new laptop and who'll be putting Fedora and/or CentOS on it???
16:53.13plarsen_workWOOHOOO!!
16:53.16plarsen_workFINALLY!!
16:54.14jsmithw00t!
16:54.29plarsen_workI'll bring the blank beat with me to the meeting tonight
16:55.32plarsen_workHE - maybe we can play with PXE on it ??? :)
16:55.46plarsen_workif it supports it that is ...
17:19.01jsmithYes, we can play with PXE on it.
17:19.21jsmithI'll try to throw my setup together, so we can play with it.
19:13.40plarsen_workGot it!! Dell D820 - and it does have PXE :)
19:15.45jsmithw00t!
19:15.55jsmithWe'll have fun tonight then :-)
19:18.46sticksterCool
19:18.50sticksterplarsen_work: Is this x86_64?
19:18.55stickster(Core 2 Duo)?
19:23.53sticksterI can bring F7 on a DVD for you if desired ;-)
19:24.00sticksterSpeak now or forever hold your peace
19:24.13sticksterRather, I'll bring it via network share
19:27.48plarsen_workyep
19:27.53plarsen_workWOOHOO!!
19:28.07plarsen_workProblem is that I need to run Oracle; I think CentOS will be a better choice.
19:28.24plarsen_worksorry, work - getting distracted by work here :)
19:28.31plarsen_workMAN you eat lunch late!
19:28.38jsmith-lunchIt's one of those days
19:29.06plarsen_workTell me about it :(
19:31.10plarsen_workBut at least I got a laptop out of it :)
19:43.34sticksterplarsen_work: I can get you CD images of CentOS 5 x86_64
19:49.48plarsen_work:) I have the x32 at home. If you'll bring the 64 that'll be great! :)
19:50.02plarsen_workThey only put 1G of RAM (I asked for 2) on the box. So it doesn't really make a difference
19:50.15plarsen_workWell, 2G wouldn't have required 64bit either ;)
