Sorry we missed you man!! I know this is late but everyone deserves a thread when they hit a thousand.

Congrats.

Oh man! Nice catch, I must be slipping in my duties

Congratulations!

Cool

Who are we talking about here?

MasterC · 06-22-2003, 03:36 AM

Proud!

Cool

?????

I'm confused as well...

Hey, thanks

Actually I've switched the title to LQ Addict atm, coz I can't be a true Guru without having done a kernel compile, can I

Well done Proud,

Hope the weather in your end of Hants is better than it is in my end of Sussex! - woken up by thinder (that's thunder with no balls!) and now it's tiddling down!

regards

John

Yeah last evening and all night it was thunder and lightening...eventually the rain turned up too

Woohoo, in the Top 30 now

1000 posts and you've never compiled a kernel!!!!!!

My friend, you must get the source and experience the joy.

There is no greater satisfaction than a kernel well compiled, simply because of the personalised boot messages. Line 1 of dmesg:

Code:

Linux version 2.4.20 (bulliver@badcomputer) (gcc version 3.2.3) #1 Mon May 12 15:43:50 PDT 2003

That's me at my computer

I'm sure that one could easily reach, say 7 thousand posts and never successfully changed their PS2 variable.

Some things just aren't important when compared to others

Cool

bulliver · 06-22-2003, 06:31 AM

No one has ever changed their PS2 variable

MasterC · 06-22-2003, 07:23 AM

See I don't even know what I'm talking about

The Bash info thingie:
root@masterc~:

Or whatever. So it says something like:
root@MasterC~:

That's a lot of typing btw from the quick reply box

Cool

the best is compiling a new kernel and overwriting your current modules only to find you goofed up the kernel and now your machine won't boot.... (yea, I did that)

Oh I get it. The username is Proud! Not like, "I'm proud to be a guru" but rather "Proud is a guru".

Boy that took me a while to figure out.
