<muffinx> Hello everyone.
<Linden940> hello muffinx whats up?
<muffinx> Not much at the moment.  Had to move about a month and a half ago, and lost internet.  I still don't have internet.  I'm borrowing some.  >:-)
<muffinx> How are you?
<Linden940> lmao
<Linden940> i am sleepy wooped...had a long ass day
<muffinx> Actually, I've been taking it easy today.  Worked a lot last week though, which is a good thing at this point.
<Linden940> had went to ada OK today *i live in dallas* this morning and came back just before 5pm
<muffinx> Ouch.
<Linden940> lol yea
<Linden940> spent 65 on fuel about $350 on items that I paid for
<Linden940> but i will be selling those same items and will get around 850 here in dallas on them
<Linden940> so....it was a very good day for me lol
<Linden940> part that sucked tho...I only have 1/4 of a load...i did not even have a full load that I could of had so I will have to go back there in a few weeks to do it all over again
<muffinx> Yeah, I'd say so.  That sounds like a good turn around to me.
<muffinx> Right now I am still trying to get back on my feet.
<Linden940> yea it is...alot of work in it tho
<muffinx> But things are finally looking up.
<muffinx> True, but that makes the work worth it, right?
<Linden940> same here....I put everything I had into this company that I started an its starting to turn fold lol
<Linden940> yea...i have put countless hours of work that i never got paid for...but in the long run i think i will end up on top...have a few more things I need to work out then I will be set up to make some big money
<muffinx> Well ... I'll eventually get my own company going, I hope.  But for now, I'm just working a blah job.  Something to at least get a place ... staying with my dad atm.
<muffinx> brb phone
<Linden940> <<<makes around .34 to .50 per every $1.00 I spend
<Linden940> what is your company going to be of? an hb
<muffinx> Software, or some sort of service center sort of thing.  Not sure yet.  But it will definitely be something.  Unfortunately, I need to go for now to handle this call.  Hope to be back later though.

<Ahmuck> hey.  need to know how to convert CRT monitor into TV any idea?
<mrand> Ahmuck: uhhh, cable boxes have HDMI output... does this CRT have HDMI? ;-)
<mrand> since you are asking on a ubuntu channel, is there a computer involved here?  A bit more info about what you are looking for would make it easy for people to respond.
<Ahmuck> VGA
<Ahmuck> iirc Linden940 was telling me that they are converting them in Africa.  i noticed I could go bnc to vga
<mrand> the CRT has VGA input?  And what TV hose do you have?  cable / sat box?  cable to the wall?  computer?  Come on man... we can't help without some info!
<Ahmuck> sorry, any connection.  i have 40-50 CRT i want to dump
<Ahmuck> so i'd advertise them as 10.00 or free to dump them and point them to a way to turn them into a cheap high resolution tv
<Ahmuck> i don't want to pay dump fees ... :)
<mrand> If they aren't huge, you at least used to be able to pay $10 and get a $10 gift card at Best buy.
<mrand> Don't know if they keep track and would limit you to one
<Ahmuck> heh, best buy no longer offers recycling options for CRT
#ubuntu-us-tx 2012-01-10
<Linden940> Ahmuck, what part of texas are you in? I could take them off your hands
<spridel> really?  i remember taking a TV for $15 or $25
<spridel> yeah what mrand said
<Linden940> best buy got smart lmao
<Linden940> what alot of people use to do was fill a 18wheeler and ship them to CA
<Linden940> down in CA the state will PAY you for them
<spridel> well you put in $10 and get a $10 gift card
<Linden940> it was a really good cash amount...i don't remember it anymore tho.
<Linden940> but now you have to show proof that they came from CA and thats hard to do...so you cant ship them there anymore and get paid the big bucks
<Linden940> so the only other place you can send them is over seas to china where they turn them into tvs
<Linden940> If bring them to me I will buy them off of you lol
<Linden940> i'm only paying like $0.25 but I don't charge
<Linden940> well...i am off to bed..i am flat out dead on my feet...I lost two pallets of computers down the road today from the rain and some asshole who cut me off that I had to slam on the brakes
<Linden940> that was a fun clean up job with it raining
<Linden940> so good night ya'll
<tp0x45> anyone here from Central Texas?
<tp0x45> Bryan/College Station?

<luis_> Hi, for some reason my grub menu doesn't show the latest kernels I have installed. When I try to run update-grub, it tells me I have to install grub or grub2-common, but when I try to install grub-common, it says this: "grub-common : Depends: liblzma2 (>= 4.999.9beta) but it is not installable"
<luis_> any suggestion as to what to do next?
