[00:11] Torch: What do you think will give me better results with running Windows programs, WINE or a VM? [00:12] DialingZero: i use a VM for most of my development stuff and anything that requires USB access (my garmin stuff) [00:12] DialingZero: wine is ok-ish for some games and that's about it, IMHO. [00:16] Torch: I've noticed that programs such as games that were created for both Windows and Macs work much better in WINE [00:17] DialingZero: might be openGL games [00:18] Diablo 2 for example, it's a 2D game though. [00:18] DialingZero: yeah, that works brilliant in wine. it's 10 years old, though. [00:19] I'm a fan of old games. === bryan is now known as Guest35081 === Guest35081 is now known as bryanRenesse === avihay_ is now known as avihay === avihay_ is now known as avihay [02:24] for some reason i am unable to lock my screen on kubuntu 10.04? why does that happen?

[06:33] been trying a few things to see if maybe [06:33] does linux need rootkit virus and trojan removers like windows does? [06:34] Does CentOS happen to have better broadcom support? [06:34] is it possible to have a virus or trojan that renders ubuntu unusable? [06:38] guest, no [06:38] could someone mention my nick please? i'm trying to debug konversation, an irc client ;-) thanks :) [06:38] it's possible to have a trojan or virus.

[06:39] that iknow of. [06:39] hey rick, i'm not an advanced user of linux, so i'm quite limited on my abilities. [06:39] Yeh me either :/ [06:39] Works fine on my desktop [06:39] but no go on my laptop [06:42] does partition magic boot disk work like fdisk for dos? [06:44] never used partition magic. what are you aiming for? [06:44] just basic linux type commands for partitiong a disk and formatting [06:45] like from terminal i guess [06:45] I can hear myself on my mic, how do I stop this? [06:53] go into audio settings and mute the mic [06:55] The mic will still work though? [06:57] yes, you can unmute it [06:57] it's just an option box.
