IIRC I've got wireless-tuuls

I've got KDE on it, and was quite pleased to see how easy it's been so far.

just the wifi eludes me... and a power "suspend" option.

I didn't get suspend to work

hm, well, I guess it works, but I can't get it back to life :-)

Hitting the power button does a clean shutdown, at least.

instead of a kill

Hey jeff. wb.

howdy

yalaforge: Ah yes, that's the package which gives you iwconfig et al. Yes, I've got that.

type iwconfig, you should see a wlan0 interface or something

No, that's what I don't get.

iwconfig: lo, eth0, sit0.

sit0?

Which is exactly the same as what I get even before the ipw2100 module is loaded.

sit0: ipv6-in-ipv4. Not sure what it is exactly.

hm, then you have to get the wlan device working first

that's driver specific, I'm afraid

after that, all you have to do is to set the essid to ANY to get access to the AP

is it centrino?

Intel 2100

hmm, is that a yes or a no?

my centrino works fine with ndiswrapper and the windows dlls

oh, fair enough

this is a clear "don't know" :-)

if it was a centrino, djce would have already discovered the sticker on his laptop

guess that's fixed now

yup

It is centrino.

so I'm safe buying a centrion laptop then, w00t!

I see a step in the ipw2100 install I haven't followed yet... so I'm reading some more.

djce: according to http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/supported_ch... your chipset is supported by ndiswrapper

if you run into trouble, you could use it as a fallback

what brand of laptop is it?

HP

do you like it?

mine is an acer travelmate 291. it was cheap, so the display and sound are lousy

but I like the rest of it

I want line in but it seems rare on laptops

maybe I can get a pcmcia card to do that

yeah, i have mic in but it's not ideal

FYI: http://www.linux-laptop.net/

helped me a lot to get things working

cool, that looks helpful

yalaforge: I was gutted about England

it was a cool match though

I was watching in the US and the pay per view channel cut out on the final penalty

I was *not* happy

it was very, very dramatic

hmmm, they don't cover debian on that site

that depends on the review, it seems

not on the dell i picked anyway

oh, right

for mine, it was debian specific

and actually, it doesn't matter

as long as you know that it works, you'll find a way for every distribution

too much laptop choice

arg

I didn't want to spend too much money, so the choice was rather small :-)

oh, and I wanted a pentium M

M?

Mobile

the one that supports speed stepping

vs Celeron?

yup.

that saves power?

yes. my notebook runs for about 4 hours

5 hours according to the ads, of course

mine too, but it's a p3 800

mine has 1300Mhz, but you can't compare that

it's a bit faster than an athlon 2000

athlon XP, that is

oh well, I'll decided sooner or later :)

Knio-sleep is now known as Knio

na?

mayhem is now known as ruaok

gutgut. und selbst?

nich' schlecht.

warm heute,

hier auch, aber nicht heiss

err, could you please fix the chatlogger. the p*rl part is getting on my nerves ;-)

gr*cenote is ok, though

28C jetzt.

hah. :-)

k

remove p*rl

add sco

add what else?

:-)

hm, don't know

ok, that is done.

any other requests?

thanks!

I just need to restart it.

nope. not at the moment :-)

I'm logging. I don't understand 'wb', yalaforge. Try /msg MBChatLogger help

microsoft is cool too

damn.

lol

what do you think of SCO, MBChatLogger?

and finally, what do you think of windows, MBChatLogger ?

that's real AI, I think

ok enough fun for now.

yalaforge: got a sec for a head check?

sure

I'm implementing a priorty queue in python.

works great according to the suggestions.

except I need to reverse the order of the queue.

priority queue? as in "weighted queue"?

yes.

CS classes here call it a priority queue

so you would use a heap as a data structure

yes.

cool, ok

well, no not in this case.

a sorted queue instead

bisect.insort(self.queue, item)

a heap is a sorted queue

oh. Oops.

Its beena while since I've dealt with heaps.

terminology problem :-)
