red_tnx, head_victim for the opengl info09:52
head_victimred_: glad it worked out09:53
head_victimNice to know when it works as well so thanks for letting me know.09:53
red_i went through your link and did what it i was told there apparently i have direct rendering: Yes09:53
red_yea, i checked the logs from the irclogs site :)))09:53
red_lots of interesting stuff there09:53
red_just ctrl-f and you are there09:53
red_i took it down a notch switching from xchat to irssi to save some ram usage09:54
head_victimYeah that's why I like helping on logged channels, it means the solutiosn are there for everyone to use09:54
head_victimAh ok I prefer xchat but then again I have 2 gb of ram to play with09:55
red_i only have 512mb lol old laptop from 200509:55
red_but lubuntu runs nice09:55
red_ubuntu not so much09:55
head_victimYeah my personal experience is if it's  a P4 or older then Lubuntu is the best selection, if it's a C2D with a couple of GB or ram or more normal Ubuntu is my preference.09:56
red_yes, i tried several live distros but decided to go with lubuntu. I was trying wattos (another low demand os) but with lubuntu there is way more supported with ubuntu forums and all09:58
bioterrordepends on need09:58
bioterrorif you want to use gnome, why not, waste your resources09:58
red_eh, just browse the web and mail for me on this comp09:59
bioterrorI have a dual core computer with 4GB of RAM and my desktop is a WindowMaker09:59
red_lol09:59
red_have u tried blackbox?09:59
bioterrorI could run "anything" with it09:59
head_victimbioterror: yeah I like the features of gnome for my quad core with 10gb ram.09:59
bioterrorred_, blackbox is soooo 90's, fluxbox is the future09:59
red_i see i am "new" to this whole DE scene ;)10:00
bioterrorI dont know what features I am missing with my cribbled WMaker and Thunar file browser :D10:00
mark76PekWM FTW!10:00
bioterrorred_, but FYI, I'm going to use Fluxbox on my coming HTPC ;)10:00
bioterrorit was sent today!10:00
red_fluxbox's nice10:00
red_that is so cool, having htpc, my guess is, since you are uber l33t10:01
bioterrordaamn, I could go to fap as I'm so excited about this htpc :D10:01
red_you will have all access via remote10:01
bioterrorwell10:01
bioterrorI have to buy these remotes :D10:02
bioterrorand case too, it's going to replace my Popcorn Hour A-11010:02
mark76Seriously. Try PekWM.10:02
mark76It has tabbed windows10:03
bioterrorbut my 2cents is that there's no idea to waste resources on gnome or other stuff10:03
bioterrorif you can do the same tasks with something lighter10:03
red_does java and flash work on that super light DE (fluxbox, blackbox...)?10:04
bioterrorwhy not10:04
red_you can browse pages, right?10:04
bioterrorwhat? :D10:04
red_nothing nothing10:05
red_what i meant was10:05
red_for instance10:05
red_with blackbox you can surf the web10:05
red_without "classic" web browser10:05
red_it can display pages10:05
bioterrorI'm not now understanding10:06
red_maybe i'm unclear, forgive my terminology10:06
red_hehe10:06
red_a sec plz10:06
red_maybe i can goole some screenshots to explain10:07
bioterrortry to find it, I'll go replace one laptop and switch harddrives on them too10:14
bioterrorafk for ~10min ;)10:14
bioterroryeah10:26
bioterrorred_, did you find anything? :D10:27
red_no i must've confused window manager and desktop environment10:37
red_the blackbox screenshots did not have what i was looking for10:38
bioterror:D10:38
red_that is different thing right? wm and de?10:38
bioterroryes10:38
bioterrorDE should bring you a whole desktop usability or how it should be explained10:38
red_ok, tnx for learning me  and explaining this basic linux-related things10:39
red_xinput list10:55
