Takyoji | Ooo nice | 03:33 |
---|---|---|
Takyoji | Didn't know there was a "Mobile Broadband" section in the Network Connections panel | 03:33 |
Takyoji | with a convenient wizard | 03:33 |
_diablo | indeed | 03:34 |
Takyoji | Now only if there was something convenient for tethering as well | 03:35 |
Takyoji | Interesting; Fennec is available in the standard repositories | 04:08 |
_diablo | for ubuntu? | 04:08 |
Takyoji | yes | 04:08 |
Takyoji | in the Ubuntu Software Centre | 04:09 |
Takyoji | Is there a graphical method in Ubuntu to start and use an SSH connection for SOCKS tunnelling in GNOME? | 04:10 |
_diablo | uhhh, I don't know much about it, sorry | 04:11 |
Takyoji | While acting under the GNOME connection settings, so that all other applications would utilize it as well | 04:11 |
Takyoji | otherwise when I was referring to the idea of there being a vendor that sells Linux-supported hardware; I meant more like something similar to Newegg; not something for buying premade desktops/laptops | 04:12 |
_diablo | ah, I see. | 04:13 |
_diablo | you could just cross-reference newegg and linuxhardware | 04:13 |
_diablo | or google it :) | 04:13 |
Takyoji | and that can be considerably a bit of work | 04:26 |
Takyoji | thus if there was a vendor that could be a fusion of the two; then that would be wonderful | 04:27 |
Takyoji | Perhaps I should run off right now and try to start such a firm. :P | 04:27 |
Takyoji | at age 18 | 04:27 |
_diablo | do it! | 04:27 |
_diablo | it wouldn't cost much for the domain name either... | 04:27 |
Takyoji | I believe it was also Mr. Gates that started MS at age 18. :P | 04:28 |
_diablo | so you're basically already a billionaire :) | 04:28 |
Takyoji | otherwise I meant it more in a retailer aspect | 04:47 |
Takyoji | only thing is that I don't have sufficient funds for start-up costs, otherwise I'm not sure if common manufacturers do direct-to-customer shipping | 04:48 |
Takyoji | In the pond construction industry, retailers/distributors are completely needed, there's no manufacturers that also work as a distributor of their own products (except one perhaps) | 04:49 |
Takyoji | Anyone know of a decent media server solution? | 05:00 |
Takyoji | (that could run in background on a standard Ubuntu desktop installation) | 05:00 |
tonyyarusso | you mean like mt-daapd? | 05:02 |
Takyoji | So would that provide music files on-demand, or would it work on like a streaming playlist concept? | 05:03 |
tonyyarusso | on-demand I think | 05:04 |
Takyoji | I believe that would be what I'm looking for | 05:05 |
Takyoji | additionally I wonder if there's anything for video as well | 05:05 |
tonyyarusso | that I don't know | 05:06 |
Takyoji | without the need of encoding | 05:06 |
Takyoji | for use on an intranet | 05:06 |
Takyoji | otherwise I could just do SAMBA or HTTP for something like that | 05:06 |
tonyyarusso | You could just do a fi-le share if nothing else. | 05:07 |
tonyyarusso | yeah | 05:07 |
Takyoji | That's pretty much how I remotely access my content over my LAN; but over SSH | 05:07 |
