[ilugd] Is Linux Compatible with Centrino (Dothan) Processor
Hi Everyone. I am planning to buy the new Dell 8600 notebook with Intel Centrino 745 1.8 GHz Processor Codenamed Dothan. This new centrino has 2MB Level 2 Cache as compared to 1 MB L2 Cache in the earlier series of Centrino Processors. I would like to know if the latest Linux kernel supports the Dothan range of processors. If yes, is there any major distribution built on this version of kernel. Thanks to everyone who responds.

[ilugd] Problem with GRUB
Hi I have a bit of problem booting with GRUB. I am using a dual boot system with Win XP and Linux. I installed PCQ Linux 2004. The GRUB loader was working perfectly until one day the boot loader gave me the GRUB Prompt instead of the GUI Screen. Since i had the kernel and initrd locations written, I managed to boot into linux. I do not know how to reload GRUB GUI, so I used the Install GRUB option from Webmin which comes preinstalled with PCQLinux. But things got worsened. Firstly, the boot msg showed: Loading Grub stage1.5 instead of stage2 and then nothing appeared on the screen. However to my surprise the boot loader is working. If i press the Right Arrow key instead of Enter by moving on the right choice, it boots on to it. Windows is booting perfectly. But when i boot into Linux, during whole text portion gets filled with absurd lines all over the characters. Although it works perfectly normal when it reaches the GUI screen. Similarly while shutting down the text screen again gets filled with absurd lines. Kindly help me to sovle this problem and tell me how to properly re-install and bring back the GUI screen of GRUB. Thanks to everyone who responds.

[ilugd] Query regarding FC2 Installation
HI In the recent mails in the mailing list, I have learned about the problem of installing Fedora Core 2 on a dual boot system since it changes the Partition Format from LBA to CHS. The solution suggested by someone was to manually select LBA option for the hard disk from the BIOS. I have Intel D865GBF Original motherboard with Seagate 80GB SATA Hard Disk. In the BIOS settings, if I select the HDD to Auto mode, the BIOS takes LBA Support as Enabled. If I select User Mode, then the BIOS gives me the options to set LBA Mode to either Disabled or Auto What should I do now? Should I keep it to Auto and proceed with the Installation or still wait for Fedora to patch the problem. Secondly, I wanted to know about swap space allocation. I have read that the swap space should normally be twice the size of RAM. I currently have 256 MB RAM, so i have a swap partition of 512MB. But I am planning to upgrade to 1 GB Ram. What swap space should I Allocate Now?? Should it be 2 GB or less? Thanks in advance to everyone who helps me out.

RE: [ilugd] Query regarding FC2 Installation
Hi Kunal, For LBA: Auto option will go. For swap: It is always recomended that swap partition should be double the size of your RAM. It is not mandatory. However presently you can choose 512 MB and latter (when you update your system) you can increase the size of your partition. If this is the case please make a prior planning of your hard disk lay out. Regards, Dev.

Devendra Burman wrote: For swap: It is always recomended that swap partition should be double the size of your RAM. Bunkum. As amount if RAM increases, the swap space I require will _decrease_, not increase. Any questions? For certain values of thumb rules, the amount of real RAM should be at least one-third of the total system memory available. This is quite different from the advice above. Kumal, if this is a desktop, you may require no swap at all. -- Sanjeev ___ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/

The ``swap twice size of RAM'' is a rather old concept, dating from the days when RAM was 32 or 64MB, processors were 66MHz and disks transferred at 1MB/s. Make a lot of swap if you plan to have tons of apps that aren't used very frequently open simultaneously. However, in general with newer systems I find 256 to 512MB of swap more than adequate -- the values under are for a KDE desktop with 4 shells, Xemacs, OOo, Licq, gkrellm, multiple Galeon windows and Gaim permanently open: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ free total used free sharedbuffers cached Mem:515256 500528 14728 0 28148 180820 - -/+ buffers/cache: 291560 223696 Swap: 265032 103648 161384 Hmm, /why/ do I have Licq open?
