[02:36] Phr34Ck: Maybe so, but then I'm going to put that understanding linux takes a lot more time than understanding windows. [02:36] ok so i'm guessing no one knows anything about wine or steam here... : ( [02:36] Acidictadpole, that's why Linux is superior for me. [02:36] I do all the work, and not the OS. [02:36] Acidictadpole, only because its more complex... [02:36] Without Linux, you wouldn't understand what's really happening. [02:36] Note that I'm currently using Windows, eeh ? [02:37] kane77: Exactly... I was saying that windows was a lot more user friendly and easier to learn. [02:37] here's what I DO hate about windows. It's not open source. If it's your hardware, your OS, you should be able to crack it open and have a look inside === Webmaster [n=ubuntu@adsl-164-94-192-81.adsl2.iam.net.ma] has joined #ubuntu [02:37] kane77: Which is an advantage to windows that Phr34Ck did not mention. [02:37] One major reason I discriminate Windows is that a multi gazillioner company and they cannot even come up with their own ideas. [02:38] It's like buying a wallet that dispenses random amounts of money, but you can't go in and have look, or take out how much you want [02:38] Almost 60% are copied from somewhere else. [02:38] Are you reading Vista news? [02:38] Phr34Ck: I dont use things based on the company who makes them.. unless the company has been known to make ..... products that break within minimal use. [02:39] How do you make mysql serve on a port rather than just on a socket? === ezenu3 [n=ezenu@70-39-69-212.clvdoh.adelphia.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:39] Phr34Ck: I'll rephrase.. If its a really bad company ill avoid them.. but if they are the only people that make it.. and i can trust the product to do what i want it to do, i dont not buy it because of who makes it. === HLM [n=Q@S0106006067664bde.no.shawcable.net] has joined #ubuntu [02:40] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22/ --> My f-spot doesnt work, gives this when I start it from the terminal, and in gui it appears 'loading' in taskbar and disappears. [02:40] Acidictadpole, I understand that. I do that as well, I think we all do that, because it benefits us. [02:40] And since im a gamer, i use windows for gaming.. nothing else, i use linux for everything else. [02:40] Acidictadpole, Amen to that. [02:40] I'm only keeping my desktop with Windows is that because I do some gaming. [02:40] and I recently switched to Ubuntu to get everything done. [02:41] Phr34Ck: so i understand where you're coming from. I just know that linux has a lot more of a steep learning curve than windows.. and for more than half of the worlds population, its either impossible or not worth learning. === Webmaster is now known as Y === w3ccv [n=mvore@pool-72-81-134-180.bltmmd.fios.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu === Y is now known as Webmaster [02:41] The notion that Windows is easier to learn is a mistake imho. Linux is more difficult to learn for people *who already know Windows*, but not for anyone else. [02:41] Acidictadpole, true. But that depends on the person. It's about what you/he/she wants. === palandir_ is now known as palandir [02:42] Just like OS X is probably the easiest OS, but difficult to learn for both Linux and Windows users. [02:42] For me, I want to get experienced with everything. And Linux is teaching me that, since I have to do everything. [02:42] Phr34Ck: Right, but people who can excel in steep learning curves with OS's are few and far between. Otherwise there would be hundreds more people in the linux channels. [02:42] Phr34Ck: Thousands* [02:42] this is sooooo #ubuntu-offtopic [02:42] I agree. :D [02:42] True. [02:43] hehe, yea. [02:43] well, I got carried away with the discussion. [02:43] Phr34Ck: help me fix my pc and we can continue subliminal discussions. === hexidigital [n=Hexidigi@unaffiliated/hexidigital] has joined #ubuntu [02:43] Tomcat_: would you happin to know anything about steam or wine? [02:43] This windows/linux discussion is a never ending quest. [02:43] Acidictadpole, what's wrong with your pc? [02:43] Phr34Ck: My computer, windows is easier to learn, wont boot up. [02:43] haha ok il stop [02:43] but seriously. [02:43] Well, format it and install Ubuntu ;p === Phr34Ck laughs [02:43] it has ubuntu [02:44] So what happened? [02:44] You installed ubuntu and now windows is not booting ? [02:44] my dual boot got messed up because the hard drive which grub points to died. [02:44] and I cant boot liveecd [02:44] Did this channel suddenly turn into an #ubuntu-offtopic channel? [02:44] for an unknown reason. [02:44] rephrase: I can boot it.. it wont launch right. [02:44] Aha. [02:45] screen just goes blank when i hit enter at the splash. [02:45] Acidictadpole, remove W$ it's paying licenc es for nothing [02:45] Acidictadpole: mine just says "cannot display this video mode" or something like that [02:45] you cannot reconfigure grub? [02:45] Use ubuntu and wine and you will feel like if you are in paradise [02:45] Webmaster: what? [02:46] Remove W$ (that Bill's Os) === Phr34Ck is away ... time ot eat :> [02:46] Phr34Ck: yea GRUB gives me error 21, which i've found to be that it cant find the selected hard drive. And I have no OS that it will boot into [02:46] webmaster: can you help me fix something in wine? please [02:46] no more propaganda peoples [02:46] siv0x, i can in 15 min === daedra knows ubuntu rocks [02:46] Webmaster: I can't boot into anything right now so I have no prompt to remove anything. I also would not remove it because I use it to game.
