it does

if it doesn't for u for some reason get PAE kernel

aking1012

@wisemonkey non-PAE

Luis Alvarado

I have 16GB using 64 bit but it has frozen completely 4 times already

I know several changes regarding pae happened in 32bit

wisemonkey

@aking1012 oh is it the other way?

Luis Alvarado

so I am not sure if it is still supported or not

aking1012

PAE is what lets you address more space

wisemonkey

23:01

yea so supports more RAM, no?

aking1012

idk if it's a supported configuration, but you can get more than 4 with PAE

Luis Alvarado

PAE = Powerful Awesome Expansion

wisemonkey

anyways anyone familiar with make: *** [miniperl] Error 1

Luis Alvarado

yeah I know, with pae I know it detects, 11.10 with pae already showed me that but in 12.04 for what i read they removed pae

wisemonkey

yup my VM shows me 6GB with 32 bit

Luis Alvarado

23:02

basically is simple 32bit and 64bit

wisemonkey

did u try free ?

Luis Alvarado

@aking1012 Physicial Address

wisemonkey

how much it shows?

Luis Alvarado

am on 64bit right now downloading the 32bit iso

aking1012

@LuisAlvarado you are right

my 64 runs fine, all my freezes were overheat related

Luis Alvarado

23:06

I got a desktop pc with the side removed

so there ir A LOT of ventilation

aking1012

me too, but my video card is BEAST

Luis Alvarado

lmsensors reports "Happy status is happy"

wisemonkey

I got this big Cooler Master HAF with 5 120mm fans and water cooled CPU -- don't feel like keeping it naked ;)

Luis Alvarado

well naked is free for me

lowers heat in all hdd, video card, motherboard, cpu and the kitchen sink

wisemonkey

ohh yea the other one is in balcony open from all sides

school was happy to let me have it without any money :)

Luis Alvarado

23:09

;)

wisemonkey

it used o run my tiny website but now got this monster machine running servers on VMs and making balcony machine a mirror :)

if I could setup everything well enough :P

aking1012

has anyone played with RSS in python and wants to recommend a library?

wisemonkey

nope not me

aking1012

i should probably just take apart newsfeed from screenlets

wisemonkey

ohh yea screenlets been 2 years since I used them last time

there was a time when I used to simply love screenlets

aking1012

23:13

i like them a lot except for the repositioning on unity --replace and setsid unity

wisemonkey

now its shell extensions

aking1012

you build for users, not for builders...just my opinion

rlemon

@aking1012 by resistance do you mean Reveal Sensitivity?

aking1012

reveal and wall sensitivity...let me grab my config

rlemon

do you notice in the video how there is like a small 'shadow' that appears when (imo) the bar should be appearing

aking1012

23:15

yes, i see that. that is most likely detection, but bug

not really relevant in my case though

'reveal_pressure' is the one to make sure it's bug

rlemon

high or low doesn't make a difference.

is this the setting you're talking about

aking1012

i've got reveal_pressure and stop_velocity both set really low

lazyPower

@aking1012 i'm really enjoying htis - i'm on a skype conference with a class mate building a presentation for tomorrow in impress.js

rlemon

i have tried lowest and highest and it still appears to be the same outcome

impress.js is nice

lazyPower

this is how work should be - collaborating via tmux and github

aking1012

23:18

^--+1 to that

rlemon

anyways. aside from the sidebar issues i have no problems so far with 12.04

lets hope this keeps up

aking1012

@rlemon you're going the opposite direction. you want to fix it. i just turn it off and use the keyboard

rlemon

how am I going in the opposite direction?

aking1012

you want mousing to work, i just turn off mousing

rlemon

I never said I didn't want to fix it. I just said aside from i have no other bugs or problems so far.

aking1012

23:20

okay cool

rlemon

@aking1012 that is a matter of choice. not progress.

aking1012

valid enough

rlemon

i do a lot of cli and a lot of keyboard navigation. however i do like using my mouse from time to time :P

like I will alt+tab to switch applications and alt+` to switch windows but I will still launch applications from the launcher with the mouse (pinned ones)

aking1012

i use it for repositioning windows...or aiming in mw3

rlemon

i even go as far as keyboard navigation in the browser for tabs.

aking1012

23:21

@rlemon super + num

rlemon

i know

that is my point thought.

aking1012

k, i guess i'm not getting it

rlemon

it's not that there isn't a convenient ki method... those are just the strange things I still use my mouse for.

aking1012

ahh...okay. i use the application launcher screenlet for that

rlemon

it's natural habbit to just grab my mouse for that.
