16:24.18 | plarsen_work | How do you issue a "reconfigure" of X? |
16:24.42 | plarsen_work | I used to use Xconfiguration once ... buuuut I'm old and so is my toolset :( |
16:27.03 | jsmith | system-config-display --reconfig |
16:27.08 | jsmith | For Fedora, at least |
16:44.49 | plarsen_work | jsmith: yeah, figured that out 5 minutes ago ;) |
16:45.10 | plarsen_work | not the "reconfig" option - but it found out that the old wasn't working and did a reconfig automatically |
16:45.39 | plarsen_work | I've gotta start crashing more boxes so I can start getting used to the 'new' tools |
16:47.56 | jsmith | Right :-) |
16:51.16 | plarsen_work | actually this was a VMware guest convert to physical .... |
16:51.17 | plarsen_work | Quite fun |
16:52.15 | plarsen_work | I am, however, loving LVM more and more every day |
16:53.10 | plarsen_work | ohhhh - and guess who's getting a new laptop and who'll be putting Fedora and/or CentOS on it??? |
16:53.13 | plarsen_work | WOOHOOO!! |
16:53.16 | plarsen_work | FINALLY!! |
16:54.14 | jsmith | w00t! |
16:54.29 | plarsen_work | I'll bring the blank beat with me to the meeting tonight |
16:55.32 | plarsen_work | HE - maybe we can play with PXE on it ??? :) |
16:55.46 | plarsen_work | if it supports it that is ... |
17:19.01 | jsmith | Yes, we can play with PXE on it. |
17:19.21 | jsmith | I'll try to throw my setup together, so we can play with it. |
19:13.40 | plarsen_work | Got it!! Dell D820 - and it does have PXE :) |
19:15.45 | jsmith | w00t! |
19:15.55 | jsmith | We'll have fun tonight then :-) |
19:18.46 | stickster | Cool |
19:18.50 | stickster | plarsen_work: Is this x86_64? |
19:18.55 | stickster | (Core 2 Duo)? |
19:23.53 | stickster | I can bring F7 on a DVD for you if desired ;-) |
19:24.00 | stickster | Speak now or forever hold your peace |
19:24.13 | stickster | Rather, I'll bring it via network share |
19:27.48 | plarsen_work | yep |
19:27.53 | plarsen_work | WOOHOO!! |
19:28.07 | plarsen_work | Problem is that I need to run Oracle; I think CentOS will be a better choice. |
19:28.24 | plarsen_work | sorry, work - getting distracted by work here :) |
19:28.31 | plarsen_work | MAN you eat lunch late! |
19:28.38 | jsmith-lunch | It's one of those days |
19:29.06 | plarsen_work | Tell me about it :( |
19:31.10 | plarsen_work | But at least I got a laptop out of it :) |
19:43.34 | stickster | plarsen_work: I can get you CD images of CentOS 5 x86_64 |
19:49.48 | plarsen_work | :) I have the x32 at home. If you'll bring the 64 that'll be great! :) |
19:50.02 | plarsen_work | They only put 1G of RAM (I asked for 2) on the box. So it doesn't really make a difference |
19:50.15 | plarsen_work | Well, 2G wouldn't have required 64bit either ;) |
