TonyBurn | name is a bit misleading, desciption is full on datacentre operations tbh | 19:38 |
=== uc_tumbleweed2 is now known as uc_tumbleweed | ||
TonyBurn | so brobostigon, are you proficient in C? | 20:03 |
brobostigon | c++, just been relearning it. | 20:04 |
TonyBurn | similar boat to me maybe then? | 20:04 |
TonyBurn | spent most my time doing java/c# | 20:04 |
TonyBurn | now i want to go back to C and C++ | 20:04 |
brobostigon | i would rather spend my time doing systems design and manegement. | 20:05 |
TonyBurn | looking for a project to contribute to and really struggling tbh | 20:05 |
brobostigon | TonyBurn: haiku-os.org :), something i have beentesting for a while, a floss version of aclosed systemcalled beos i used to use inthe 90's. | 20:06 |
TonyBurn | was thinking about something a little less obscure XD | 20:09 |
TonyBurn | no offence | 20:09 |
TonyBurn | whats the main appllication of haiku? | 20:09 |
TonyBurn | lightweight computing? | 20:09 |
brobostigon | TonyBurn: as a desktop OS. | 20:10 |
brobostigon | and with proper smpsupport, and real multi-tasking and multi-threading. | 20:10 |
TonyBurn | looking at the homepage now.. | 20:18 |
brobostigon | its really interesting, and is looking so good. and developement is moving so quickly. | 20:19 |
TonyBurn | http://www.haiku-os.org/development/learning_to_program_with_haiku | 20:23 |
TonyBurn | nicely written guide there | 20:23 |
brobostigon | very. some very clever people work on the haiku project, | 20:24 |
TonyBurn | i'm interested, just like something a little more linux oriented though | 20:26 |
TonyBurn | i'll use the guides though ta :) | 20:27 |
TonyBurn | and deffo run it on a vm out of curiosty | 20:27 |
brobostigon | TonyBurn: maybe contribute to parts of ubuntu or debian. | 20:27 |
brobostigon | TonyBurn: runs best in qemu in my experience. | 20:27 |
TonyBurn | yea, was looking at enlightenment the other day as i used to follow that but the project doesn't seem to be going anywhere imo | 20:28 |
brobostigon | iwould agree. | 20:29 |
TonyBurn | meego is worth a look | 20:31 |
TonyBurn | either that or do some gui concepts for ubuntu | 20:32 |
TonyBurn | had a killer idea the other night | 20:32 |
brobostigon | TonyBurn: gnome-shell/gnome3 ? | 20:32 |
brobostigon | TonyBurn: whatwa sit? | 20:32 |
TonyBurn | in my mission to rid any wasted vertical pixels on open windows | 20:33 |
brobostigon | yes ? | 20:33 |
TonyBurn | sort the max/min/close buttons out either integrated into the app window (diffuclt/not possible), or make them mega small only a few px high and then zoom bigger with the mouse hovered over them | 20:34 |
TonyBurn | in the same way a dock zooms icons when hovered | 20:34 |
brobostigon | interesting. | 20:35 |
TonyBurn | wasted vertical pixels are a pet hate of mine | 20:35 |
TonyBurn | and window borders | 20:35 |
TonyBurn | the other idea i had was for layering windows on the desktop in the same way as you could text/graphics on a desktop publishing package | 20:36 |
TonyBurn | ie bring forward, bring to front etc | 20:36 |
brobostigon | interesting also. | 20:36 |
TonyBurn | the 'always on top' option is still available and faar too dated | 20:36 |
TonyBurn | ie, i use iplayer, i might want to see it in the popout window | 20:37 |
TonyBurn | i'd want this to hover above a console or something, but dont want all browser windows always on top | 20:37 |
TonyBurn | there'd have to be a better way of layering the windows than a DTP package offers though | 20:38 |
TonyBurn | and a tiling wm isn't the answer for me as i dont have enough desktop space on a laptop to have every window allocated its exclusive space | 20:39 |
TonyBurn | haiku installing.. | 20:45 |
brobostigon | how are you installing? | 20:47 |
TonyBurn | into virtualbox | 20:50 |
brobostigon | you just need to run the vm image, no need to do any installing. | 20:50 |
TonyBurn | oh i thought i'd download the iso, assuming the image has virtual driver compiled? | 20:51 |
brobostigon | i dont know anything about virtualbox, so no idea. | 20:52 |
markjones | ohai ianto | 22:14 |
brobostigon | nos da, sleep well. | 23:31 |
