| vychune | booooooo lol | 01:13 |
| vychune | i tried to use it and it panicked on me | 01:13 |
| linuxman410 | i have been using ubuntu since 5.10 and fedora since it first came out | 01:14 |
| vychune | wow thats cool | 01:14 |
| vychune | how was 5.10 by the way? | 01:14 |
| linuxman410 | my first linux was mandrake 7.0 | 01:15 |
| linuxman410 | 5.10 was ok but flaky to me | 01:15 |
| cyberanger | linuxman410: I think I had used 4.10, my first install was 5.04 | 01:15 |
| linuxman410 | i still have 5.10 cd from ubuntu you want one | 01:16 |
| cyberanger | took alot of changelog reviews and such, had a hard time figuring that out | 01:16 |
| linuxman410 | i bought 10 of them at a thrift store sentimental value | 01:17 |
| cyberanger | naw, lucid and maverick suits me fine | 01:17 |
| vychune | nope im goooooooood lol | 01:17 |
| linuxman410 | tried natty out thought it was no good i hope it gets better | 01:17 |
| vychune | nattys not looking so good | 01:18 |
| vychune | what are you guys up to/ | 01:18 |
| cyberanger | Debian Sid >:-) | 01:20 |
| vychune | ??? | 01:20 |
| vychune | lol | 01:20 |
| linuxman410 | i am just now getting fedora back on my laptop it is updating now if natty does not get better will have to change to something else | 01:20 |
| cyberanger | that's my current meddling atm | 01:20 |
| vychune | smh | 01:20 |
| cyberanger | aka Debian Unstable | 01:20 |
| linuxman410 | i have debian 6 on my desktop | 01:21 |
| cyberanger | that and configuring another opennic server or two | 01:21 |
| vychune | opennic huh i think i know what that does but could you still tell me lol | 01:22 |
| cyberanger | Opennic is an alternate DNS service | 01:22 |
| linuxman410 | i am running crunchbang 10 on a 500mhz laptop with 128 ram and it flies | 01:22 |
| cyberanger | I currently host a public server (tier 2) | 01:22 |
| vychune | crunchbang? and wow a public server cool | 01:23 |
| linuxman410 | cyberanger what is on your server | 01:23 |
| chris4585 | crunchbang is pure awesomeness | 01:23 |
| cyberanger | I use bind9 for it | 01:23 |
| vychune | im trying to start a social network myself | 01:23 |
| cyberanger | yes, crunchbang is awesome | 01:23 |
| vychune | what is crunchbang? a desktop enviorment? | 01:24 |
| cyberanger | linuxman410: bind9 for dns, apache2 for an httpd server, squid as a cacheing proxy | 01:24 |
| linuxman410 | crunchbang has very low hardware requirments and runs great | 01:24 |
| linuxman410 | cool cyberanger | 01:25 |
| vychune | oh openbox huh looks good | 01:25 |
| cyberanger | http://crunchbanglinux.org/ | 01:25 |
| chris4585 | crunchbang is a remix using openbox | 01:25 |
| chris4585 | it uses debian now right? | 01:25 |
| vychune | hello chris4585 and thanks | 01:25 |
| linuxman410 | yeah 10 uses debian 6 | 01:25 |
| cyberanger | eh, the starlter alpha does | 01:25 |
| linuxman410 | it is not alpha no more | 01:26 |
| cyberanger | and they dropped the older ones finaly | 01:26 |
| cyberanger | and they dropped the older ones finally | 01:26 |
| cyberanger | linuxman410: yeah, just saw that, cool | 01:26 |
| chris4585 | personally that doesn't appeal to me, I'd rather have ubuntu base but meh, I'd rather just set it up how I want it | 01:26 |
| cyberanger | and I don't run much on apache atm, just a pac file really | 01:26 |
| cyberanger | I need to build it out more | 01:26 |
| cyberanger | esp. http://www.zachgibbens.geek | 01:27 |
| cyberanger | no point having an opennic doman be that bland | 01:27 |
| vychune | .geek? lol | 01:27 |
| chris4585 | why does zach gibbens sound familiar? | 01:29 |
| linuxman410 | it does not have nothing says domain not found when i type it in | 01:29 |
| cyberanger | chris4585: ahem | 01:29 |
| cyberanger | <-- | 01:30 |
| chris4585 | ah thats why | 01:30 |
| chris4585 | well I have another friend with a similar name I think | 01:30 |
| cyberanger | linuxman410: opennic domain | 01:30 |
| cyberanger | linuxman410: http://www.opennicproject.org/ | 01:31 |
| cyberanger | I need to get my ICANN domain going too | 01:34 |
| vychune | i got one chestpaint.com but nothings on it | 01:35 |
| linuxman410 | still waiting on diaspora | 01:35 |
| cyberanger | linuxman410: why, I've ran it fine | 01:36 |
| cyberanger | and so have others | 01:36 |
| linuxman410 | be back have to restart | 01:38 |
| vychune | hey cyberanger im trying to do a socail network any suggestions? | 01:39 |
| cyberanger | create one? | 01:43 |
| vychune | lol | 01:43 |
| vychune | http://www.chestpaint.com | 01:43 |
| linuxman410 | new version of peppermint out today | 01:45 |
| linuxman410 | i went into peppermint os irc channel for support and no one in there uses it i mean wow | 01:47 |
| linuxman410 | most of them use linuxmint or ubuntu | 01:48 |
| chris4585 | linuxman410, whats so surprising about that? | 01:48 |
| linuxman410 | i just figured if you are going to support why not use it | 01:49 |
| linuxman410 | does not say a whole lot for the os if the support team does not use it | 01:50 |
| linuxman410 | debian and redhat started it all almost every distro is based on one of them | 01:53 |
| cyberanger | almost, heh, like slackware, arch? | 01:55 |
| linuxman410 | i said almost not all | 01:55 |
| cyberanger | and what if the disto is better than the souce ;-) | 01:56 |
| cyberanger | fedora, like redhat, just suck less | 01:57 |
| cyberanger | centos, like redhat, just free and open source | 01:57 |
| linuxman410 | just means it improves as it spreads | 01:57 |
| cyberanger | at what point though do you have to change to not be based off of it though | 01:58 |
| chris4585 | cyberanger, I'd say if you create a new package format is the only real requirement | 01:59 |
| chris4585 | just my opinion | 02:00 |
| vychune | woow i missed a lot lol | 02:28 |
| vychune | but its a great live cd distro | 02:28 |
| * wrst really needs to get battery backup | 03:56 | |

| Svpernova09 | I need to prep a drive for resale, it's had some personal info on it, you guys have any suggestions for something free that'll overwrite it a few times? | 17:12 |
| cyberanger | dban | 17:12 |
| pace_t_zulu | dban ftw | 17:12 |
| Svpernova09 | See, I knew you guys wouldn't let me down :_D | 17:13 |
| cyberanger | http://www.dban.org/ | 17:13 |
| cyberanger | also, there's wipe http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/15037/use-an-ubuntu-live-cd-to-securely-wipe-your-pcs-hard-drive/ | 17:14 |
| cyberanger | (If I didn't allways have a boot disc with dban on it, I'd still have an ubuntu live disc on me and hopefully a data connection, but since I keep them both nearby, I can choose) | 17:18 |
| cyberanger | Svpernova09: plenty of options, but dban is probally the simplest | 17:22 |
| Svpernova09 | Coo, running dban on it now. Thanks | 17:23 |
| cyberanger | personally, for secure deletion, I'm a fan of a thermite charge, but that might just be due to the pyrotechnics, a lot more visual effects ;-) | 17:25 |
| Svpernova09 | lol | 17:25 |
| Svpernova09 | Boss's Daughter's laptop, they're gonna ebay it when I'm done. | 17:25 |
| chris4585 | hrm weird, I ticked the 3d support for virtualbox but doesn't seem to be working... | 18:44 |
| pace_t_zulu | chris4585: you need to reinstall the guest additions after ticking 3d support | 18:44 |
| pace_t_zulu | again, make sure you have vbox 4.0 | 18:44 |
| chris4585 | ah | 18:45 |
| chris4585 | yeah I have 4.0 | 18:45 |
| chris4585 | pace_t_zulu, any idea how to show the menu bar? I somehow hid it... | 18:51 |
| chris4585 | nvm I got it | 18:56 |
| pace_t_zulu | chris4585: so you have unity running in vbox? | 19:15 |
| chris4585 | yep | 19:17 |
| chris4585 | no updates yet though, have to wait until 2am | 19:17 |
| cyberanger | don't you just love hughesnet so much you wanna take it outside with a tall sturdy tree and sturdy rope | 19:19 |
| chris4585 | yes! | 19:20 |
| chris4585 | I think we need a new dish actually... | 19:20 |
| chris4585 | or something, lately it just seems to be getting worse | 19:20 |
| cyberanger | chris4585: that's not a bad idea, what's your modem? hn7000s ? | 19:22 |
| chris4585 | hn9000 | 19:24 |
| chris4585 | at the time I think it was the new one | 19:24 |
| cyberanger | that sucks | 19:25 |
| cyberanger | that means it's a Ka band system, spotbeam technology | 19:28 |
| cyberanger | and as such, all issues must go through hughesnet | 19:28 |
| cyberanger | whearas the older Ku band gear, or gear that can do both, like the HN7000s | 19:30 |
| cyberanger | can be maintained by the customer (despite discourgement from hughesnet) | 19:30 |
| cyberanger | around here they'll try and give you a .74 meter dish, when it'd be better for some to use a .98 meter or bigger dish | 19:31 |
| chris4585 | ah | 19:32 |
| cyberanger | more tolerable with bad weather | 19:33 |
| cyberanger | can really hold onto a signal too | 19:33 |
| cyberanger | (the same applies to the system you have, but you can't sidestep hughesnet easily on the matter) | 19:34 |
| cyberanger | that's why I like my system (of course I like it sitting in storage even more, celluar dsl and cable oh my) | 19:37 |
| cyberanger | oh how I'm glad the worst of that is behind me | 19:40 |
| chris4585 | hopefully this march? we might be able to work something out with the cable company down here | 19:41 |
| cyberanger | what's the current issue | 19:45 |
| cyberanger | and would celluar work in the mean time | 19:45 |
| cyberanger | I'm glad for alot of the tricks I learned for celluar and satellite | 19:55 |
| cyberanger | really works out nicely | 19:56 |
| cyberanger | main one is running a squid proxy that all machines on the local network use | 19:58 |
| cyberanger | and with enough machines using ubuntu and current storage prices, run a local mirror | 19:59 |
| cyberanger | but that's the main two | 20:00 |
