[01:30] <thafreak> paultag: when your semester is over, ping me
[01:36] <paultag> OK
[01:36] <paultag> I'm not pingging you
[01:36] <paultag> right now
[01:36] <paultag> that is
[01:37] <paultag> because it's not over
[01:37] <thafreak> I know, I figured...
[01:37] <thafreak> :_
[01:38] <thafreak> just wanted to put something in the back of your mind...
[01:38] <thafreak> when your brain is un-melted...ping me ...
[01:39] <paultag> thafreak: go for it
[01:40] <thafreak> oh no, the thing for the back of your mind...is to ping me when your brain unmelts
[01:41] <canthus13> bah. I've gotta find another job. I'm seriously burning out. I see old people and want to whack 'em with a baseball bat when I drive by.
[01:42] <paultag> thafreak: oh, kk
[01:47] <Cheri703> anyone seen dmcglone lately?
[01:47] <Cheri703> I have a question for him
[01:51] <canthus13> not since last night.
[01:51] <Cheri703> ok
[01:51] <Cheri703> I have a friend who needs web-design
[04:12] <Unit193> Cheri703: Did you ever figure out screen? (if you don't like/want to try irssi try finch!)
[04:12] <Cheri703> I hadn't messed with it yet
[04:13] <Cheri703> I had a sudden onset sinus infection...I've been feeling crappy all day
[04:13] <Cheri703> but I will check that out
[04:13] <Unit193> It's only from getdeb (repo) it's from the people that make pidgin
[04:13] <Cheri703> interesting, i'm curious
[04:15] <Unit193> Doesn't seem to work very well in screen.... hope you feel better soon....
[04:15] <Cheri703> thanks
[04:15] <canthus13> finch is ok, but the windows keep rearranging whenever reattach.
[04:16] <Unit193> canthus13: Do you just get a bunch of funny looking As?
[04:30] <canthus13> No.
[04:30] <canthus13> set your encoding to UTF-8
[04:31] <canthus13> And use the system fixed width font, if you've changed it.
[04:32] <gilch> anyone around?
[04:36] <Unit193> gilch: Nope
[04:36] <canthus13> gilch: I'm getting kinda round... I need exercise.
[04:37] <Unit193> canthus13: It's only in screen that it does it (with -U)
[04:38] <gilch> do either of you know anything about transfering gpg keys to a fresh install?
[04:39] <canthus13> Hmm. Odd. Doesn't do it to me.
[04:39] <canthus13> No. paultag might, tho.
[05:04] <Unit193> canthus13: It's a PuTTY error (http://jacob.davida.com/wp/?p=168 if you even care)
[05:33] <canthus13> Unit193: Oh. putty. That's different. :)
[05:35] <canthus13> Unit193: YOu can fix it in terminal > whatever. There's a setting to make it permanent.  I can post it in here tomorrow when I'm at work. I had the same issue 'til I fixed it.
[05:35] <Unit193> Yeah... I had used it on Win, figured it would be less back and forth errors....
[05:35] <Cheri703> canthus13: the thing with irssi that I was not wanting to tackle was the whole configuration process
[05:36] <canthus13> Unit193: From linux, just ssh from the command line. it's easier than PuTTY.
[05:36] <canthus13> Cheri703: There's really not much configuration.
[05:36] <canthus13> Cheri703: At least, not for vanilla irssi. There's a lot of customization that you can do, tough.
[05:36] <canthus13> s/tough/though/
[05:37] <Cheri703> I dunno, it seemed overwhelming when I first looked at it. may have been having a weird blood sugar day though, that makes LOTS of things feel overwhelming :/
[05:37] <Cheri703> might give it another look
[05:37] <canthus13> Cheri703: It is a bit intimidating at first, but I got over that quick.
[05:37] <Unit193> canthus13: I'll just have to figure out what commands I use in putty
[05:37]  * Cheri703 likes the guis
[05:38] <Unit193> I may have another look at irssi (can you have the users in chat on the side?)
[05:38] <canthus13> yep
[05:39] <Unit193> finch I don't think can... I will really take another look...
[05:43] <Cheri703> canthus13: if I create a configuration file on my netbook, can I just copy it to my desktop and it'll all be happy and cooperative?
[05:43] <Cheri703> *for irssi
[05:43] <canthus13> Yep
[05:44] <Cheri703> ok, cool. didn't want to play with it and then have to do it all over
[05:44] <canthus13> There's nothing machine-specific. Maybe screen dimension stuff a little.. Like you may want a larger highlight window at the top on your desktop, but nothing huge, and nothing absolutely necessary.
[05:45] <canthus13> of course, if you keep it running on your desktop you can ssh into it from your netbook.
[05:45] <Cheri703> yeah
[05:45] <canthus13> that's all I ever do, so my config is housed on my server.
[05:46] <Cheri703> yeah, that's what I'm thinking I'd eventually want to do, but play with it on netbook to get the hang of it
[05:46] <Cheri703> maybe
[05:48]  * canthus13 wonders why his server is only seeing ~910 MB of 1 gig.  it doesn't have built-in video, so nothing reserved for that...
[05:48] <Cheri703> did you get that all worked out canthus13? didn't you say that one of your servers bit it the other night?
[05:51] <canthus13> two of them, actually.  Replaced the motherboard on Bob, got him all squared away, then Titan quit seeing the network and decided the drive was corrupt... then quit booting altogether, so I had to replace his motherboard, too.
[05:51] <Cheri703> ah, good times!
[05:52] <Cheri703> I'm going to need to do some upgrading on mine soon
[05:52] <Cheri703> trying to put it off as long as possible
[05:52] <canthus13> Yeah. Titan now has double the memory, but isn't seeing all of it for some reason. I'm thinking it's someting in BIOS... shadowing, maybe.
[05:52] <Cheri703> :/ maybe
[05:52] <Cheri703_irssi> ok, so I have irssi running
[05:52] <Cheri703_irssi> and..I dunno if I like it
[05:53] <Cheri703_irssi> I need to poke at it some more
[05:53] <canthus13> Actually, that would explain it. he's got an old 128MB geforce MX4000 for video...
[05:53] <canthus13> there are all sorts of plugins to play with.
[05:53] <Cheri703_irssi> I think I installed irssi-scripts
[05:53] <canthus13> http://irssi.org/documentation/tips
[05:53] <Cheri703_irssi> I should clarify: I DON'T like it in its default form :( I will have to customize some things for it to be usable for me
[05:54] <canthus13> http://quadpoint.org/articles/irssi
[05:54] <canthus13> Yeah. it's kinda plain in the default form. I didn't change a whole lot... Just added the highlight window.  You can add a name list fairly easily, change the colors.. there are lots of themes available.
[05:55] <Cheri703_irssi> :( so much of the stuff on the tips page is gibberish. I mean, I could get if I took the time, but... :/
[05:55] <canthus13> Heh.  The second one Is much easier to understand.
[05:56] <Cheri703> I dunno about all of that
[05:56] <Cheri703> we'll see. not for a "hopped up on cold medicine/out of it from sinus pressure" evening
[05:57] <canthus13> one thing about screen, though:  flow control is annoying.  If you hit control+s accidentally (And you will, since control-a is the command sequence), use control+q to resume.
[05:57] <canthus13> It'll seem like it just locked up completely when you hit control+s.
[06:01] <canthus13> dmcglone: Hey... just the man Cheri703 was looking for.
[06:01] <Cheri703> hey dmcglone !
[06:01] <dmcglone> Hi guys
[06:01] <Cheri703> I'm going to pm you, k?
[06:01] <dmcglone> ok
[19:04] <Unit193> Does Ubuntu come with Audacity?
[19:05] <Unit193> (The normal version, I know L/Kubuntu don't)
[19:10] <deejoe> http://packages.ubuntu.com/audacity
[19:10] <deejoe> Unit193: ^^^^
[19:13] <Unit193> deejoe: thanks, that answers one of my other questions (beta), is it installed by default (I would guess not)
[19:13] <thafreak> zeromq is so awesome
[19:14] <deejoe> Unit193: what's the import of whether it is default or not?  You trying to do something with a networkless system, or the liveCD?
[19:16] <Unit193> deejoe: LiveCD (comp only has network if it's moved)
[19:17] <deejoe> ah
[19:21] <Unit193> Win env with Win people (going to use Linux for the next few weeks :D ) and if I really have to put Win back on, I want a Linux backup (Win will fail when you need it the most)
[19:25] <deejoe> heh
[20:16]  * canthus13 yawns.
[20:21] <canthus13> Unit193: Stick missing debs on a thumb drive, install individually as needed.
[20:38] <Unit1931> canthus13: That might work...
[20:41] <canthus13> Or make a persistent environment on a thumb drive. (4 gigs should be enough for backup use)
[20:42]  * canthus13 uses a persistent knoppix install on his MP3 player.
[20:44] <Unit1931> Hello Cheri703
[20:44] <Cheri703> hola
[21:00] <Unit1931> Cheri703: Having fun with irssi?
[21:01] <Cheri703> didn't do much with it, brain was too frazzled last night
[21:01] <Cheri703> might poke at it today
[22:12] <dmcglone> Hi everyone
[22:15] <Cheri703> hey dmcglone
[22:15] <Unit1931> Hey dmcglone
[22:16] <Cheri703> I talked to my friend, he's going to contact you tomorrow :)
[22:16] <dmcglone> Cool
[22:17] <dmcglone> I got in a huge debate last night over Assange
[22:18] <dmcglone> I hate getting baited into crap like that
[22:19] <Cheri703> :/
[22:19] <dmcglone> I did nothing but ask questions and I get yelled at... LOL
[22:20] <dmcglone> I just shrugged it off as usual
[22:20] <dmcglone> haha
