| h00k | Unity's new hotness http://flic.kr/p/9bUjKf | 00:51 |
| lostson | i am not that thrilled by the unity desktop i may go to xfce or something else maybe even kde i prefer a more traditional approach | 01:12 |
| ripps | I personally prefer a pretty minimalistic desktop. Docky + Wingpanel | 02:40 |
| h00k | Lurrrve unity | 02:40 |
| h00k | so far. | 02:40 |
| h00k | (see screenshot) | 02:40 |
| ripps | I'd like unity if I could get rid of the top panel, I just want the dock | 02:41 |
| ripps | But of course, unity is pretty much just a souped up docky, becuase the core of unity was written by the creator of docky | 02:42 |
| ripps | Personally, I just want docky with the unity dash | 02:42 |
| h00k | Too bad you don't have any customizations you can do with this Linux thing. | 02:43 |
| mikeputnam | greetings from 10.04.1 on this desktop (omg) | 03:39 |
| h00k | hello! | 03:40 |
| h00k | mikeputnam: omg good or omg bad? | 03:40 |
| mikeputnam | good. i had F14 on here and it was... less good than F13 | 03:40 |
| mikeputnam | so flipping back to ubuntu for a cycle ;0 | 03:41 |
| h00k | Ooooh, I see :) | 03:41 |
| mikeputnam | i've also been on Windows only hiatus for several months and it just gets boring after a while | 03:41 |
| mikeputnam | not that i do anything remotely useful on either OS in my downtime, but linux is at least more interesting. | 03:42 |
| mikeputnam | install random apps, try them out, no virus! yay! | 03:42 |
| h00k | It's true. I just got Windows 7 in a VM again, instead of dualbooting. Virtualbox 4, seemless mode, USB passthrough | 03:43 |
| mikeputnam | i had a quasi-working ubuntu 8.06? or whatever that LTS was | 03:43 |
| mikeputnam | on my work-lappy | 03:43 |
| h00k | I get way more done, feel more organized when using Ubuntu rather than Win7 | 03:43 |
| h00k | 8.04 | 03:43 |
| mikeputnam | but the proprietary ide i must live with @ work forced my hand once again | 03:44 |
| h00k | Hardy Heron | 03:44 |
| mikeputnam | i've actually not used win7 yet | 03:44 |
| h00k | That'll do it. I got the Cisco IP Communicator working in the Virtual Machine with USB passthrough to my headset | 03:44 |
| mikeputnam | other than trying to help someone with a question on Office (which is somewhat laughable now that i said it) | 03:44 |
| h00k | :D | 03:45 |
| h00k | I support Microsoft environments, IT stuffs, so I have to be familiar with it :( | 03:45 |
| mikeputnam | yep. | 03:45 |
| mikeputnam | bills gots ta be paid. | 03:45 |
| mikeputnam | beer ain't free | 03:45 |
| mikeputnam | we're 110% microsoft | 03:46 |
| mikeputnam | unless you count vmware/and all the oss that we run | 03:46 |
| h00k | Yeah... | 03:47 |
| h00k | I'm going to VCP training next week | 03:47 |
| mikeputnam | active directory, exchange, office, sql server, winxp/7/2005?, etc | 03:47 |
| mikeputnam | i saw that | 03:47 |
| h00k | :D | 03:48 |
| h00k | Yeah, same here, as far as environment | 03:48 |
| mikeputnam | our dept is off by itself supporting Oracle/Peoplesoft so my microsoft chops have atrophied | 03:49 |
| mikeputnam | winxp3eva | 03:49 |
| mikeputnam | ha | 03:49 |
| mikeputnam | winxp4eva | 03:49 |
| * mikeputnam kicks off the first "Update Manager" after the new install | 03:51 | |
