=== excid3|mbp is now known as excid3|party-hat [01:21] cyberanger: you should look at the specs at Sun's (now Oracle's) web site...it's more akin to a blade server with hot swap blades and storage, dynamic hardware allocation, etc [01:21] and Solaris, which has always been extremely pricey [01:34] yeah, about 31k more than I can look into [01:34] as far as buy [01:35] but would be nice to read up on [02:58] hey yall [02:58] just discovered this channel [02:59] anyone here chat?

[03:06] not sure how many ppl work out of it, prolly under 5 [03:06] I think it's in knoxville [03:07] you're better off at #nlug [03:07] thats the nashville user linux grp [03:07] whats that? [03:07] no cookeville one i assume [03:07] dunno [03:08] heh [03:08] is there a good program for capturing video and audio from a usb device? [03:08] I have a dazzle [03:08] hm, adobe makes a few [03:08] for what OS? [03:09] Ubuntu [03:10] ah i dunno [03:10] I honestly can't stand linux desktops [03:11] really? [03:11] yea, esp ubuntu, oddly enough [03:11] i have the worse luck [03:11] I could go on for hours [03:11] on how bad they fsck things up [03:11] i always change the wallpaper [03:12] i've tried on 2 laptops, and some way they do the DAV and udev [03:12] almost always has ugly default wallpapers [03:12] sometimes plugging in wireless usb adapters will hard lock the whole box [03:12] that sucks [03:12] then on my xbmc box, I've had nothing but problems with it :/ [03:13] every upgrade it breaks something different [03:13] keyboard, wireless, intel nic [03:13] nothing is off limits [03:13] sometimes it thinks my 62" tv is 90" and doesnt let me fit it on the screen [03:13] well all but 1 version did that [03:13] anyways [03:14] but other ppl have no problems [03:15] also the default alfa drives wont let my nice 2w alfa wireless do monitoring ;/ [03:16] my laptop works fine [03:16] gateway nv55c [03:18] what OS you use normally? [03:21] rockin natty right now here [03:30] win7 [03:31] thats what mine came with [03:31] at work i have a hackentosh and a win7 [03:31] cant get osx86 on this lappy [03:34] hackintosh doesn't work as well though does it? [03:34] are there a lot of computer models with success? [03:34] i gotta have a 64 bit OS anyways [03:36] I have it working flawless on a dell 960 [03:36] audio, nic, etc [03:36] except the sleep feature [03:36] my laptop is too new, i dunno what part breaks, but it can't get installed, barely boots up [03:37] there is enough radiation at the fukushima plant to kill people [03:38] for me Ubuntu works best right now [03:38] Windows 7 is good but doesn't really have anything to offer me [03:42] you tried ubuntu natty yet? [03:43] robertzaccour, I have and so far I'm liking it besides dash in unity [03:43] whats dash? [03:44] its the menu that pops up when you click on the ubuntu icon [03:44] robertzaccour: there is an approval process, sparing you of the details of that process, we are close to nailing our requirements [03:45] technically we may already have, just being a little through before we apply [03:45] and also, there is a cookeville linux users group [03:46] oh i see [03:46] #cooklug [03:46] really? where? [03:46] oh ok cool [03:46] robertzaccour, http://www.techdrivein.com/2011/03/ubuntu-1104-natty-narwhal-alpha-3.html [03:46] robertzaccour: also in person, hang on [03:46] ok [03:47] well, the link in topic has all the info, why repeat it ;-) [03:47] haha [03:47] and on Behalf of the LoCo, welcome [03:47] I'm using natty atm [03:47] so far pretty good [03:47] thanks [03:48] robertzaccour, ah, yeah I like it for the most part, I'm just waiting for unity to get better [03:48] if its not, then I'll continue to use my altered classic gnome setup [03:49] you can always install gnome 3, right? [03:49] robertzaccour: the april 7th loco meeting is in this channel, as it always is first thursday of the month [03:49] oh ok thanks [03:50] robertzaccour, you can switch between classic gnome and unity at anytime from the login screen [03:50] Juzzy: our meetings are always in irc, this channel, first thursday of the month [03:50] you can alternative probably install gnome 3 classic desktop, or gnome-shell [03:51] and we're preparing release parties in a few cities [03:51] (and I intend to insure cookeville is on that list this time, if I can) [03:51] that is cool [03:52] cyberanger, you head of the tn group? [03:52] (and unlike last time, should be a safe bet, presuming gas doesn't go much higher than now, I think I've planned everything shy of memphis to the tune of 4.50 a gal (memphis better be 4.00 a gal) [03:52] Yes, I'm the trustee [03:52] ah ok [03:53] we have regional leaders too, your cookeville, right? that'd put you under middle tn with pace_t_zulu then [03:54] yeah cookeville [03:54] oh ok [03:54] he's nashville based, we have wrst and electricus from cookeville, if I recall [03:55] 3 regions, west, middle and east [03:56] west seems to be nearly all in memphis, middle is split, nashville area and cookeville (and cookeville is equally close to knoxville) [03:56] east tn is odd, I'm near chattanooga, the region leader is in morristown, another member on the KY state line, and two members knoxville area [03:57] we try to cover everywhere, big state ;-) [03:57] well long state [03:58] actually cookeville is a little closer to nashville [03:58] depends on where to where [03:58] oh true [03:58] east side of cookeville can hit west knoxville quicker than downtown nashville, perhaps even the airport if not city limits [03:59] and vise versa, minus the time zone messup, both are roughly an hour [04:00] hit traffic in either of them, skews it, the difference is smaller than the traffic it seems, at least based on every time I drive it [04:00] anyhow, if you have any questions, about the loco or ubuntu in general, odds are somebody here has the answer [04:01] cookeville party, I can help plan [04:01] would meetings have to be indoors? [04:02] that one might already planned, actually, gotta talk to some folks in the lug there and see [04:02] I welcome the input, don't get me wrong, just that one for some reason seems simplier than most [04:05] oh ok thanks [04:06] so you drive around all over the state for the meetings? [04:13] not before at least [04:13] I've driven to nashville and knoxville [04:13] mostly walk nowadays (just too cheap for a car really) [04:13] ah ok [04:14] but special occasions, gonna do something different this time [04:18] i'm heading to work i'll be back on when i get there [04:18] I don't think I will be till morning [04:18] can only defy sleep for so long [05:11] I'm back [05:12] hey Juzzy fruit [05:12] hey cyberanger [16:01] hey yall [18:00] wish i could sleep === excid3|mbp is now known as Guest6504 === Guest6504 is now known as excid3|party-hat === excid3|party-hat is now known as Guest1337|part-h === Guest1337|part-h is now known as excid3|mbpee === excid3|mbpee is now known as excid3|mbpeepee [19:38] Hey guys I could use a little help with a raid card === excid3|mbpeepee is now known as excid3|mbp
