			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Jaguar Front Suspension</p>
<p>            These are the Jags to look for as donors.<br />
They are called &#8220;XJ&#8221;.  XJ6, XJ12, XJS, XJ4.2, XJ5.3 (where 4.2 and 5.3  indicate engine size  in litres) Just stay clear of XJ40 series from  ~1987 up.</p>
<p>This is a Series 1. These ran from 1968 to 1973. The front end is good,   but the 6 cylinder version has solid disks and 3 piston callipers. The   V12 version is &#8220;the same&#8221; as series 2. If the front panels are gone look at the dash, series 1 cars had the small gauges in the middle of the car.<br />
<img src="http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/6987/2010jaguarxj6460x0w.jpg" alt="" border="0"></p>
<p>This is a series 2. These ran from 1973 to 1979. Note that the front   bumper is higher, US models have rubber bits on the bumpers too. If the  front panels are gone look at the dash, series 2 cars had the small gauges in front of the driver. All  front ends are good. Vented disks and 4 piston callipers.<br />
( If you happen to find a 2 door version of this series don&#8217;t cut it up, restorers will pay $$$ for them <img src="images/smilies/biggrin.gif" alt="" title="Big Grin" class="inlineimg" border="0"> )<br />
<img src="http://img690.imageshack.us/img690/7835/365427633922eb9f97dc.jpg" alt="" border="0"></p>
<p>This is a series 3. These ran from 1979 to 1987 as a 6 cylinder car and   up to 1992 as a V12. Actually a very different car to a series 2, but   looks very similar. Easiest way to tell them apart is by the lack of a   front quarter window. All front ends are good, &#8220;same as&#8221; series 2. <br />
<img src="http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/5373/jaguarxj6.jpg" alt="" border="0"></p>
<p>This is an XJS. They ran from 1976 to 1997. All front ends are good. &#8220;Same as&#8221; series 2 or 3.<br />
<img src="http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/6461/f8477631.jpg" alt="" border="0"></p>
<p>This is an XJ40. They ran from 1987 to 1994. Totally different front  end. To me they look like they  would work, but I&#8217;ve never seen it done.There is very little  information available on swapping them compared with the earlier stuff.  Best left alone.<br />
<img src="http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/6069/18343431.jpg" alt="" border="0"></p>
<p>Note: where I write &#8220;same&#8221; I mean functionally close enough, there are  numerous detail differences that really don&#8217;t matter to a hotrodder.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today I made the mistake of upgrading my girlfriends LinuxMint on her Dell mini 10. After a new kernel was installed the video went to shit. It uses the Intel GMA500 &#8220;Poulsbo&#8221; video hardware. </p>
<p>I thought it would improve performance to do the entire upgrade like this one <a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsPoulsbo/">here</a>. However the upgrade just made everything shitty. Soon after the upgrade I attempted to playback a nice big video with mplayer and I got a shitty choppy playback and a shitty black flickering bar towards the lower part of the playback. So, I googled for a few hours only to find a ton of others bitching about this driver and how much Intel sucks for this. After readin about all i could fucking stand about the psb driver, one of my old i810 video tips came to mind. Appending &#8220;mem=&#8221; to your kernel boot line to specify how much memory the kernel uses, Leaving some for the video system.</p>
<p>In your grub/menu.lst find your kernel line:</p>
<p><code>kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-16-generic root=/dev/sda5 ro quiet splash</code></p>
<p>Add &#8220;mem=SOMETHING LESS THAN YOUR ACTUAL MEMORY&#8221;</p>
<p><code>kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-16-generic root=/dev/sda5 ro quiet splash mem=1000mb</code></p>
<p>Her mini 10 only has a gig of memory so I am using &#8220;mem=1000&#8243;, thats in Megabytes and there is 1024 of them in a Gig of ram so this should leave me 24MB&#8217;s for video.. if it needs it.</p>
<p>Wouldn&#8217;t ya know it, It worked. <img src='http://blog.phrog.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /><br />
Hope this stupid post helps somebody out. Please share your comments.</p>
