[01:21] <netritious> 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] <netritious> and Solaris, which has always been extremely pricey
[01:34] <cyberanger> yeah, about 31k more than I can look into

[03:06] <Juzzy> apperently
[03:06] <Juzzy> it's a small office
[03:06] <robertzaccour> is the april 7 meeting here or somewhere?
[03:06] <Juzzy> not sure how many ppl work out of it, prolly under 5
[03:06] <Juzzy> I think it's in knoxville
[03:07] <Juzzy> you're better off at #nlug
[03:07] <Juzzy> thats the nashville user linux grp
[03:07] <robertzaccour> whats that?
[03:07] <robertzaccour> no cookeville one i assume
[03:07] <Juzzy> dunno
[03:08] <Juzzy> heh
[03:08] <robertzaccour> is there a good program for capturing video and audio from a usb device?
[03:08] <robertzaccour> I have a dazzle
[03:08] <Juzzy> hm, adobe makes a few
[03:08] <Juzzy> for what OS?
[03:09] <robertzaccour> Ubuntu
[03:10] <Juzzy> ah i dunno
[03:10] <Juzzy> I honestly can't stand linux desktops
[03:11] <robertzaccour> really?
[03:11] <Juzzy> yea, esp ubuntu, oddly enough
[03:11] <Juzzy> i have the worse luck
[03:11] <Juzzy> I could go on for hours
[03:11] <Juzzy> on how bad they fsck things up
[03:11] <robertzaccour> i always change the wallpaper
[03:12] <Juzzy> i've tried on 2 laptops, and some way they do the DAV and udev
[03:12] <robertzaccour> almost always has ugly default wallpapers
[03:12] <Juzzy> sometimes plugging in wireless usb adapters will hard lock the whole box
[03:12] <robertzaccour> that sucks
[03:12] <Juzzy> then on my xbmc box, I've had nothing but problems with it :/
[03:13] <Juzzy> every upgrade it breaks something different
[03:13] <Juzzy> keyboard, wireless, intel nic
[03:13] <Juzzy> nothing is off limits
[03:13] <Juzzy> sometimes it thinks my 62" tv is 90" and doesnt let me fit it on the screen
[03:13] <Juzzy> well all but 1 version did that
[03:13] <Juzzy> anyways </rant>
[03:14] <Juzzy> but other ppl have no problems
[03:15] <Juzzy> also the default alfa drives wont let my nice 2w alfa wireless do monitoring ;/
[03:16] <robertzaccour> my laptop works fine
[03:16] <robertzaccour> gateway nv55c
[03:18] <robertzaccour> what OS you use normally?
[03:21] <robertzaccour> rockin natty right now here
[03:30] <Juzzy> win7
[03:31] <robertzaccour> thats what mine came with
[03:31] <Juzzy> at work i have a hackentosh and a win7
[03:31] <Juzzy> cant get osx86 on this lappy
[03:34] <robertzaccour> hackintosh doesn't work as well though does it?
[03:34] <robertzaccour> are there a lot of computer models with success?
[03:34] <robertzaccour> i gotta have a 64 bit OS anyways
[03:36] <Juzzy> I have it working flawless on a dell 960
[03:36] <Juzzy> audio, nic, etc
[03:36] <Juzzy> except the sleep feature
[03:36] <Juzzy> my laptop is too new, i dunno what part breaks, but it can't get installed, barely boots up
[03:37] <chibihogoshino> there is enough radiation at the fukushima plant to kill people
[03:38] <robertzaccour> for me Ubuntu works best right now
[03:38] <robertzaccour> Windows 7 is good but doesn't really have anything to offer me
[03:42] <robertzaccour> you tried ubuntu natty yet?
[03:43] <chris4585> robertzaccour, I have and so far I'm liking it besides dash in unity
[03:43] <robertzaccour> whats dash?
[03:44] <chris4585> its the menu that pops up when you click on the ubuntu icon
[03:44] <cyberanger> robertzaccour: there is an approval process, sparing you of the details of that process, we are close to nailing our requirements
[03:45] <cyberanger> technically we may already have, just being a little through before we apply
[03:45] <cyberanger> and also, there is a cookeville linux users group
[03:46] <robertzaccour> oh i see
[03:46] <cyberanger> #cooklug
[03:46] <robertzaccour> really? where?
[03:46] <robertzaccour> oh ok cool
[03:46] <chris4585> robertzaccour, http://www.techdrivein.com/2011/03/ubuntu-1104-natty-narwhal-alpha-3.html
[03:46] <cyberanger> robertzaccour: also in person, hang on
[03:46] <robertzaccour> ok
[03:47] <cyberanger> well, the link in topic has all the info, why repeat it ;-)
[03:47] <robertzaccour> haha
[03:47] <cyberanger> and on Behalf of the LoCo, welcome
[03:47] <robertzaccour> I'm using natty atm
[03:47] <robertzaccour> so far pretty good
[03:47] <robertzaccour> thanks
[03:48] <chris4585> robertzaccour, ah, yeah I like it for the most part, I'm just waiting for unity to get better
[03:48] <chris4585> if its not, then I'll continue to use my altered classic gnome setup
[03:49] <robertzaccour> you can always install gnome 3, right?
[03:49] <cyberanger> robertzaccour: the april 7th loco meeting is in this channel, as it always is first thursday of the month
[03:49] <robertzaccour> oh ok thanks
[03:50] <chris4585> robertzaccour, you can switch between classic gnome and unity at anytime from the login screen
[03:50] <cyberanger> Juzzy: our meetings are always in irc, this channel, first thursday of the month
[03:50] <chris4585> you can alternative probably install gnome 3 classic desktop, or gnome-shell
[03:51] <cyberanger> and we're preparing release parties in a few cities
[03:51] <cyberanger> (and I intend to insure cookeville is on that list this time, if I can)
[03:51] <robertzaccour> that is cool
[03:52] <robertzaccour> cyberanger, you head of the tn group?
[03:52] <cyberanger> (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] <cyberanger> Yes, I'm the trustee
[03:52] <robertzaccour> ah ok
[03:53] <cyberanger> we have regional leaders too, your cookeville, right? that'd put you under middle tn with pace_t_zulu then
[03:54] <robertzaccour> yeah cookeville
[03:54] <robertzaccour> oh ok
[03:54] <cyberanger> he's nashville based, we have wrst and electricus from cookeville, if I recall
[03:55] <cyberanger> 3 regions, west, middle and east
[03:56] <cyberanger> west seems to be nearly all in memphis, middle is split, nashville area and cookeville (and cookeville is equally close to knoxville)
[03:56] <cyberanger> 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] <cyberanger> we try to cover everywhere, big state ;-)
[03:57] <robertzaccour> well long state
[03:58] <robertzaccour> actually cookeville is a little closer to nashville
[03:58] <cyberanger> depends on where to where
[03:58] <robertzaccour> oh true
[03:58] <cyberanger> east side of cookeville can hit west knoxville quicker than downtown nashville, perhaps even the airport if not city limits
[03:59] <cyberanger> and vise versa, minus the time zone messup, both are roughly an hour
[04:00] <cyberanger> 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] <cyberanger> anyhow, if you have any questions, about the loco or ubuntu in general, odds are somebody here has the answer
[04:01] <robertzaccour> cookeville party, I can help plan
[04:01] <robertzaccour> would meetings have to be indoors?
[04:02] <cyberanger> that one might already planned, actually, gotta talk to some folks in the lug there and see
[04:02] <cyberanger> I welcome the input, don't get me wrong, just that one for some reason seems simplier than most
[04:05] <robertzaccour> oh ok thanks
[04:06] <robertzaccour> so you drive around all over the state for the meetings?
[04:13] <cyberanger> not before at least
[04:13] <cyberanger> I've driven to nashville and knoxville
[04:13] <cyberanger> mostly walk nowadays (just too cheap for a car really)
[04:13] <robertzaccour> ah ok
[04:14] <cyberanger> but special occasions, gonna do something different this time
[04:18] <robertzaccour> i'm heading to work i'll be back on when i get there
[04:18] <cyberanger> I don't think I will be till morning
[04:18] <cyberanger> can only defy sleep for so long
[05:11] <robertzaccour> I'm back
[05:12] <robertzaccour> hey Juzzy fruit
[05:12] <robertzaccour> hey cyberanger
[16:01] <robertzaccour> hey yall
[18:00] <robertzaccour> wish i could sleep
[19:38] <Xpistos> Hey guys I could use a little help with a raid card
