Chriswaterguyhi - is there a way of moving windows without the mouse? Or a way of forcing the title bar to display? I have had trouble trying to change the size of windows, and ended up losing the title bar (the very top part of the window). Now I can "unmaximize" but this is useless as it's still taking up the whole screen and for some reason the mouse won't grab the edges of the window.07:00

graelbHi there09:25
graelbAnyone alive tonight?09:25
=== zeroflag dies
graelb=P09:26
zeroflagjust finished breakfast. :P09:26
graelbI'm having issues with vnc-ing to a windows computer09:26
zeroflagand I probably won't be able to help you, because my first xu installation died of a grub screwup and my second xu died somewhere between aptitude and starting xfce...09:27
graelbi keep getting a ReadFromRFBServer: rdr::EndOfStream09:27
graelblol09:27
graelbdamn09:27
zeroflagwhat client do you use?09:27
graelbvncviewer atm09:27
graelbrealvnc is the server09:28
zeroflaghmm, did you try connecting from another PC?09:28
zeroflagmaybe local loopback on the windows machine?09:28
graelbmaybe! i didn't try that09:29
graelbi don't have the client installed on that machine, i was just using it to be lazy from my bed09:29
graelblol09:29
zeroflagjoin the club...09:29
graelbhehe09:29
zeroflagworked nicely until I activated aero on the target...09:29
=== graelb wonders if it is something to do with the windows machine or xubuntu
graelbyeah... it turns aero off by default09:30
zeroflagwhich rendered tightvnc unable to filter out media applications, which caused vnc to go haywire, which caused my (rather powerful) machine to act like a 486 on half clock speed...09:30
graelbsweet!09:30
graelbgood stuff there.09:30
zeroflagmh?09:30
graelbno, not really09:31
graelb /sarcasm09:31
zeroflagbtw, I prefer tightvnc on windows. you might wanna check on it if realvnc doesn't work.09:31
graelbrdp works correctly to the windows machine, but that's not quite remote control the way i want it09:31
graelbtightvnc eh?09:31
=== zeroflag shrugs
graelbhey, by the way, what's all involved with creating a .deb file once you've compiled from source?09:33
graelbdo you know by any chance?09:34
zeroflagI only use windows->ubuntu (couldn't get xu to work yet) and windows->windows...09:34
zeroflagI have no idea but I guess you could ask on #ubuntu09:34
zeroflagthe people there are quite a bit more (hyper)active than around here...09:34
graelbyeah, point made09:34
graelbSo, you jsut had breakfast... which puts you somewhere in europe or australia?09:35
zeroflageurope, yeah.09:35
=== graelb nods
zeroflagI'm still sipping on my coffee although I should be out getting my car fixed...09:35
zeroflaggot a 8mm screw stuck in my tire...09:36
graelbew... yeah, i'm trying to put a new top on my jeep, and i can't get a damn torx bolt loose09:36
graelbfour actually09:36
graelbnone of them come out09:36
zeroflagwish I had your problems.09:36
zeroflagall issues in my car are either software related or broken... :P09:36
zeroflagand since ford won't give me an adapter cable, I can't rewrite the firmware. ;)09:37
graelbOh c'mon, sure you could! hehe09:37
graelbSoftware related?09:37
zeroflagyeah, bit by bit.09:37
zeroflagliterarely. ;)09:37
zeroflagwell, stuff like the nav/mp3 system being unable to read ogg or wma, incapable of understanding multisession cds, etc...09:38
zeroflagthe ASR being a royal pain in the ass, the lack of control over my boardcomputer, etc...09:39
graelbhuh.09:39
graelbsuck dude09:39
graelblol09:39
graelbwish i could give you some bit of advice but... yeah09:40
zeroflagwell, I have a nice car, even though I have to turn off ASR to have fun.09:40
zeroflagbut with electronical guidance deactivated, you learn how to handle a car properly.09:41
zeroflag...or you don't and end up on some tree...09:41
graelbyeah, that would be a bad thing09:42
zeroflagyou're american, right?09:43
graelbyessir09:44
zeroflagon european roads, we have these things called "corners" and "curves".09:44
zeroflagthey're tricky. ;)09:44
graelbHey man, i'm from oregon. We've got plenty of corners and curves09:44
zeroflagreally?09:44
graelbIt's those damn californians that don't know how to take corners09:45
graelbchya really09:45
zeroflagthen that's the only part of US I'd not refuse to move to...09:45
=== zeroflag loves corners
zeroflagand curves.09:45
graelbGranted, we don't have everything packed into like.... ten square feet, but still09:45
zeroflagoutside the context of roads as well...09:45
=== graelb snickers
zeroflagok, I still refuse to move there!09:45
zeroflaguntil you americans learn a proper measuring system. :P09:46
graelbWhat!? it's called Imperial for a reason09:46
graelbit's just so much better09:46
graelb once again </sarcasm>09:46
zeroflagevery fibre in my body just refuses to work when I hear "feet".09:47
zeroflagit's just that no-go condition for my brain...09:47
zeroflag:P09:47
graelblol09:48
graelbdon't you guys spell color as colour too?09:48
graelband favorite as favourite?09:48
zeroflagmmmh, nope.09:48
zeroflagat least I don't.09:48
graelbwell... some of you do09:48
graelblol09:48
graelbwhere are you in europe?09:48
zeroflagI prefer AE in most cases because I'm a lazy bastard.09:48
zeroflagand I prefer z over s...09:48
zeroflaggermany.09:48
=== graelb blinks at the z
graelbAre you from germany?09:49
zeroflagyep.09:49
graelbYour english is ridiculously good for not being a first language09:49
zeroflagthank you. :)09:49
graelbMein deutsch schlecht, aber ich habe <never> sprechen09:50
zeroflagI often get the "better than the average american" comment, but I think that could be considered an insult. ;)09:50
graelblol09:50
zeroflagnun, mein deutsch ist auch nicht besonders gut. ;)09:50
graelbWas beduetet "besonders" im Englisch?09:50
zeroflag"especially" or "very"09:51
zeroflagvarries on the context.09:51
zeroflagin this case it's "very".09:51
graelbI had three years of german, and my vocab blows09:51
graelbmy german isn't very good.... right?09:51
graelbhehe09:51
zeroflagwell, I had 6 years of (school) english and I couldn't form a damn sentence...09:51
graelbseriously?09:52
graelbis it that hard to learn as a second?09:52
zeroflagI only started getting better after being tossed into the world of IRC and internet. ;)09:52
graelbhehe09:52
zeroflagit's not hard to learn a language...09:52
zeroflagit's just hard to learn a language in school...09:52
graelboh. ok, i see where you're going with that09:52
zeroflagI had to start over again after the first 2 years because I changed schools, and I had to always wait for the slower guys in the classes... so...09:53
graelbwonderful09:53
graelbYeah, that sucks. i remember those guys09:53
zeroflagyep. :>09:53
zeroflagwell, I gotta go fix my car.09:54
zeroflagsee you around. ;)09:54
graelbhey,09:54
graelbcan i get your aim or msn contact?09:54
zeroflagI got ICQ...09:54
zeroflagwhich should be the same as AIM...09:54
graelbhehe i haven't used icq in years, but my account is still up09:54
