* GazzaK hides

<chaddy> this isn't a support channel?

* chaddy wonders what he is doing here

<GazzaK> erm, talking to yourself?

* GazzaK just figured out that itunes has funky visualisations

<GazzaK> what colour should I paint my livingroom

<chaddy> I may be talking to myself, GazzaK, but at least it's on /topic ;-)

<GazzaK> talk to me instead

<chaddy> when did the not support thing get added to the /topic?

<GazzaK> dunno, weeks ago

<GazzaK> we still do support here, I think it's more as a disclaimer

<chaddy> no one reads th topic, anyway, I spose

<GazzaK> true

<chaddy> for a living room, GazzaK, I'd go either green, blue or brownish

<chaddy> green can be very refreshing

<GazzaK> it's green atm, I hate it

<chaddy> ours is blue atmo

<chaddy> got to be the right green ;-)

<GazzaK> blue is cold, so I don't want that

<GazzaK> I was actually thinking of one wall dark grey, the others light grey/silver ish

<chaddy> primary colours on different walls?

<chaddy> ooh

<chaddy> nice

<chaddy> that could be nice here, all the furniture and technology (except the sofas) is silver

<GazzaK> yeah, I just bought a big shiny telly

<GazzaK> know anyone who wants a 32" crt tv???

<chaddy> white ceiling and a black floor would set that scheme off nicely

<chaddy> nah, we've got a 28", it's enough for us for the foreseeable future

<GazzaK> the floor is fake wood, but it will be oak, same as the furniture

<chaddy> till we converge, at any rate

<GazzaK> chaddy, it's free

<GazzaK> free to the first ubuntu-uk'er who can collect it

<chaddy> Aberdeen to where you are and back in a hire car would probably cost us more than buying one ;-)

<GazzaK> chaddy, true

<GazzaK> I'll abuse the topic for free adverts, since the TV is free I fail to see an issure

<GazzaK> issue

* popey abuses GazzaK

<GazzaK> woo

<popey> widescreen?

<GazzaK> yes

<GazzaK> tech spec -

<GazzaK> Philips 32" crt

<GazzaK> silver

<GazzaK> widescreen

<GazzaK> big stand, with little clock thing and two glass shelves

<popey> i know the type of thing you mean

<GazzaK> Approximate Street Price : £1,500 including stand - this was when new

* chaddy considers going out to buy a new HDD for the desktop to stick Debian on

<GazzaK> chaddy, I got a 42" hitachi, and the mac mini looks super on it :-)

<GazzaK> oh, HDD, as in Hard disk drive, eek, /me hides

<GazzaK> damnit, the AV forums often use HDD for High Def Display

<chaddy> heh

<chaddy> lol in fact

<chaddy> with a little bit of *facepalms*

<chaddy> ;-)

<GazzaK> yeah

* GazzaK feels stoooopid

<GazzaK> what size HDD?

<chaddy> well, started looking at 80GB, then saw the 160GB for ~£9 more

<chaddy> not really pushed for storage, I'd be happy with a 10GB one, tbh

<GazzaK> I only have a 30 & 60 in the pc, a 60 in the lappy and a 80 in the mac mini, but I do have a 300GB NAS box for all the big important files

<chaddy> just fancy putting it on a separate drive as I'm happy with my current Edgy/XP dual-boot

<chaddy> anything more than 10GB would put me over the ½TB mark, I think

<chaddy> been close for a while

<GazzaK> I have funky easy release thingys on my power connectors, so I disconnect the power to the hard drive I don't want to mess up (on the PC)

<GazzaK> at work I have 1.2TB, but that is a work server

<chaddy> aye, the desktop only has one HDD at present; I suppose the best plan would be to get another 160GB one for it, in case I ever need to dd the whole thing; probably better if I ever go with RAID, too

<popey> software raid on linux \o/

<popey> you could convert to software raid without losing anything

<chaddy> need to have a look and see what there's space for in there

<chaddy> fancy having a mess with LVM, too

<chaddy> though just for the learning, don't really have a genuine call for it

<GazzaK> anyways, I'm off out to find dimmer switches

<chaddy> popey: you might get a quorum made up from in here

<popey> for?

<chaddy> ET ;-)

<popey> ahhh

<Seeker`> heya

<daviey> hi

<khronus> lo all

<khronus> been trying to install ubuntu on an old system and the installer keeps crashing

<khronus> any ideas?

<thingy> kernel panics or installer just cores?

<thingy> or segfaults?

<khronus> i need to re run it to grab the error message ( unbless theres a log? )

<thingy> should be an installer log in /var/logs i think

<thingy> anyway, if its kernel panics, then consider boot time params of checking stuff like memory

<thingy> if its segfaults, core dumps, its still prob. hardware like a dodgy ide controller or bad hdd

<thingy> or it could be a bug

<khronus> ok most ofthat went over my head, i will look for the log first

<thingy> :-)

<khronus> what will the log be called?

<thingy> installer.log i think

<khronus> na, theres an installer folder but it just hasa file called version

<khronus> theres a load of other logs

<khronus> none called installer

<thingy> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1665580 according to that in /var/log/installer my box is currently down so i cant go check
