| hughbert | anybody up? | 05:32 |
|---|---|---|
| ShaneM | Mornin' all | 08:04 |
| hughbert | well well did anyone hear about this linux distro called zorin? | 15:08 |
| czajkowski | yes | 15:08 |
| hughbert | didn't know they were from ireland... | 15:09 |
| hughbert | well based in ireland.. | 15:09 |
| czajkowski | dublin | 15:10 |
| czajkowski | yes | 15:10 |
| hughbert | do you know them? | 15:11 |
| hughbert | very well polished distro anyway... | 15:12 |
| hughbert | very slick... | 15:12 |
| janua | ooh | 15:15 |
| janua | Might try it, it runs through ubuntu? | 15:15 |
| ebel | is that the one from those students? | 15:15 |
| hughbert | maybe i heard about anouther one gnuSence that was developed by trinity collage students... | 15:16 |
| czajkowski | ebel: aye | 15:17 |
| hughbert | its ubuntu with all the "questionable" content taken out... | 15:17 |
| czajkowski | hughbert: it was developed by one trinity college person and another member of ILUG | 15:17 |
| czajkowski | with regards to the 2 students, they basically take a copy of Ubuntu and skin it to look like windows or whatever | 15:18 |
| czajkowski | so not really a distro imo | 15:18 |
| hughbert | ooo right... | 15:18 |
| hughbert | well.. i don't know about that.. i suppose its a good looking theme so... | 15:18 |
| czajkowski | so basically brain wash folks into only using machines that look like windows... | 15:19 |
| hughbert | they seem to have their own menu though witch is fairly impressive... | 15:19 |
| hughbert | to get used to the opensource software... | 15:19 |
| hughbert | i didn't like ubuntu straight away... | 15:20 |
| hughbert | i used mint first and that was great for me.. it got me used to the command line and all the apps... | 15:20 |
| hughbert | then i changed to ubuntu.. and i've been with it ever since... | 15:23 |
| ebel | yeah gnusense wasn't done by trinity students per se. :) | 15:27 |
| hughbert | ya i think ye maybe right.. | 15:28 |
| hughbert | :-) | 15:28 |
| hughbert | i was talking to the ubuntu-au people this morning... | 15:28 |
| hughbert | had a very long rant at the start... | 15:29 |
| czajkowski | hughbert: you do rant a lot! | 15:29 |
| hughbert | ha ha i know i have a problem... :-( | 15:30 |
| janua | I hug bash everyday | 15:31 |
| hughbert | you hug bash everyday.. so you start the terminal and hug the moniter? | 15:31 |
| hughbert | do you press F11 to make it full-screen? | 15:32 |
| janua | Perhaps | 15:34 |
| hughbert | ha ha.. ya i like to say good-night to my computer and give it a hug before bed... | 15:35 |
| janua | Sometimes i use bum, but thats out of context | 15:35 |
| hughbert | ha ha... | 15:36 |
| hughbert | thats very funny.. | 15:36 |
| hughbert | had a great chat with them about sony dropping linux on the ps3 and security stuff... | 15:37 |
| janua | Isnt the PS3 recently hacked now | 15:38 |
| janua | Where you can run any code signed or unsigned | 15:38 |
| hughbert | ya its getting hacked to bits... | 15:38 |
| hughbert | they really droped the ball on that thing... they pissed off the very people that they shouldn't have hackers and sciencists... | 15:39 |
| ShaneM | They're only getting Linux running, they're not working on anything else. | 15:40 |
| janua | I dont know much else about ps3, only what i read in the news for 2 minutes! | 15:40 |
| hughbert | I run ubuntu on my ps3... | 15:41 |
