nhandler | So is anyone close to Case Western Reserve and interested in meeting up sometime April 21-22 ? | 00:01 |
---|---|---|
paultag | one goddamn day late nhandler | 00:06 |
nhandler | paultag: We probably are flying in the night before, not sure when you are leaving | 00:07 |
paultag | 20th, 7-ish | 00:08 |
nhandler | Doesn't look like it will work out (unless we bump into each other at the airport) | 00:08 |
paultag | aye :) | 00:08 |
dmcglone | Hi all. Anyone know if ndiswrapper supports monitor drivers? | 04:08 |
Unit193 | dmcglone! javenm | 04:08 |
Unit193 | that was supposed to be "haven't seen you in a while!" | 04:09 |
Cheri703 | yo dmcglone | 04:09 |
Cheri703 | I have no clue | 04:10 |
dmcglone | "haven't seen you in a while" LOL | 04:10 |
dmcglone | I've been so darn buisy lately. I just got done working on a clients computer thats running ubuntu and they got a new monitor and none of the high res are working | 04:11 |
dmcglone | highest it will go is 800zx600 | 04:12 |
dmcglone | it's a 20" acer flat screen | 04:12 |
Cheri703 | which version of ubuntu? | 04:13 |
dmcglone | 9.10 | 04:13 |
Cheri703 | that may be why | 04:13 |
Cheri703 | I put 10.10 on client's computer and it was very happy with the 21" screen | 04:13 |
dmcglone | Acer? | 04:14 |
Cheri703 | uhm, asus | 04:14 |
Cheri703 | 9.10 may just not support bigger screens? | 04:14 |
dmcglone | Not sure. but upgrading to 10.10 is worth a shot | 04:15 |
Cheri703 | at least try it with a livecd | 04:15 |
dmcglone | yeah | 04:15 |
dmcglone | I didn't think about that | 04:15 |
dmcglone | smart advice :-) | 04:15 |
Cheri703 | hopefully it works! | 04:16 |
dmcglone | yes. I want these people to like Linux | 04:16 |
dmcglone | My sister loves it | 04:17 |
Cheri703 | :) | 04:17 |
dmcglone | she e-mailed me today telling me that she created a Diploma on her Ubuntu. (she home schools her kids) | 04:17 |
Cheri703 | nice! | 04:18 |
Cheri703 | oooo, dmcglone I meant to tell you | 04:18 |
Cheri703 | I have a domain for my business now :) | 04:18 |
Cheri703 | www.techheroohio.com | 04:18 |
dmcglone | She's pretty happy about it | 04:19 |
dmcglone | Cool | 04:19 |
Cheri703 | and there's another computer repair business moving into the area :( | 04:19 |
dmcglone | commercial or individual? | 04:19 |
Cheri703 | commercial | 04:19 |
dmcglone | they don't stand a chance if you keep your prices lower :-) | 04:20 |
Cheri703 | they had a job listing up, but it's super part time, need a car, but decent pay. I dunno, I'd consider it if I had a car and could still do my own thing on my off hours, but I don't think anything like that would happen :) | 04:20 |
dmcglone | they got much more overhead | 04:20 |
Cheri703 | also, I'm not intimidating for women clients | 04:20 |
Unit193 | Cheri703: What is it? | 04:21 |
Cheri703 | can't remember, there's a job posted on craigslist | 04:21 |
dmcglone | well if you advertise for yourself, you can get clients that they couldn't because you can keep your prices down | 04:22 |
Cheri703 | yeah | 04:22 |
Cheri703 | I'm going to go get some flyers and more business cards printed his week | 04:22 |
dmcglone | I compete with geek squad here :-/ | 04:22 |
Cheri703 | :( | 04:22 |
Cheri703 | I have to get an actual website figured out, right now it's just my flyer as a placeholder | 04:22 |
dmcglone | I think geek squad is a joke | 04:23 |
Cheri703 | oh yeah | 04:23 |
Cheri703 | I have some fun links about it | 04:23 |
dmcglone | well you let me know when your ready if you want | 04:23 |
* Cheri703 is super poor | 04:23 | |
dmcglone | thats ok, we can work something out for you if you like | 04:24 |
Cheri703 | I'd definitely be up for having a website set up! | 04:24 |
Unit193 | How else is geek squad going to get your porn... | 04:25 |
dmcglone | Then you let me know when and show me a draft of what type of layout you would like and we'll take it from there | 04:26 |
Cheri703 | ok, I'll think about it and mock up something | 04:26 |
dmcglone | Ok, show me as much as you can that you would like on the site | 04:27 |
Cheri703 | ok, I'll work on it. I appreciate it! | 04:27 |
dmcglone | No problem. | 04:28 |
dmcglone | also let me know what you would like to have in a web package, databases? how much MB etc. etc | 04:29 |
dmcglone | ftp access | 04:29 |
Cheri703 | hmm...not sure. I have it with my existing hosting account at this point | 04:29 |
dmcglone | stuff of that nature and I'll try and cherry pick everything you want for a lower monthly cost | 04:30 |
Cheri703 | ok, cool | 04:30 |
dmcglone | I'm sorry, I forgot you already have hosting, so don't think I'm trying to pressure you. | 04:31 |
Cheri703 | nah, it's ok | 04:31 |
Cheri703 | if you can be cheaper, I'd go for it! | 04:31 |
Cheri703 | :D | 04:31 |
dmcglone | You decide. in the meantime, we will work on your site | 04:31 |
dmcglone | how much is your hosting pacakge and what is included? | 04:32 |
Cheri703 | kk, thanks :) I'll start planning | 04:32 |
Cheri703 | it's the standard (lower) yearly package from byethost | 04:32 |
dmcglone | let me take a look | 04:32 |
dmcglone | you only get 250GB/Mo? that sux | 04:34 |
Cheri703 | well, up til now, I had NO TRAFFIC to the previous site, so...wasn't exactly a big deal, didn't have much on it | 04:35 |
Cheri703 | so... | 04:35 |
dmcglone | true | 04:36 |
dmcglone | there's no ftp with them | 04:36 |
dmcglone | tomorrow I'll get you something together :-) | 04:37 |
Cheri703 | :) | 04:37 |
Cheri703 | brb, going to reboot | 04:37 |
dmcglone | ok | 04:37 |
dmcglone | what ya been up to Unit193? | 04:38 |
Unit193 | dmcglone: Just put a DVD drive and +1G ram this oldish Xubunt box.... | 04:40 |
Unit193 | Will be testing out Xubuntu with Active Directory at "work" | 04:40 |
dmcglone | sounds like you got your hands full | 04:41 |
Unit193 | Na, just doing random crap... | 04:42 |
Unit193 | You? | 04:42 |
Unit193 | (I also don't do much *ubuntu stuff, except IRC help) | 04:42 |
dmcglone | I don't do much myself because I'm usually buisy | 04:43 |
dmcglone | sometimes I feel guilty that I can't do much | 04:44 |
* Cheri703 missed what you're talking about | 04:44 | |
dmcglone | talking to Unit193 about what he's been up to | 04:45 |
canthus13 | dmcglone: ...aren't you up way past your bedtime? :) | 04:45 |
Cheri703 | ah, gotcha | 04:45 |
dmcglone | LOL Canthus, I'm about to be turning in. | 04:45 |
dmcglone | I was working on a Ubuntu machine a little bit ago. having problems getting it to recognize the monitor properly | 04:46 |
* Unit193 is useless to the Ubuntu Community... | 04:46 | |
Unit193 | :) | 04:46 |
dmcglone | My only contribution so far is advocating the use of it | 04:47 |
Unit193 | dmcglone: Don't you have LP Karma? | 04:47 |
dmcglone | but in my eyes, anything's better than Microsoft | 04:47 |
dmcglone | I'm not following | 04:48 |
dmcglone | LP? | 04:48 |
Unit193 | Launchpad | 04:48 |
Cheri703 | did you try the live cd dmcglone? | 04:48 |
Cheri703 | even try 10.04 | 04:48 |
dmcglone | LOL I think they would be pretty mad if I showed up at their door at 12am | 04:49 |
dmcglone | LOL | 04:49 |
Cheri703 | ah, didn't know if you had it at your house :) | 04:49 |
dmcglone | but earlier I was working through RDP | 04:49 |
Cheri703 | gotcha | 04:49 |
canthus13 | Unit193: Cheer up. you're not useless. You make a perfectly adequate doorstop. :) | 04:50 |
dmcglone | canthus13: I thought that would be me | 04:50 |
canthus13 | dmcglone: Nah. *YOU'RE* useless. :) | 04:50 |
dmcglone | LMAO | 04:50 |
dmcglone | can't even be a curtain rod? | 04:51 |
canthus13 | Hmm... | 04:51 |
dmcglone | well it's an enabeling job | 04:51 |
dmcglone | lol | 04:51 |
dmcglone | You see every room needs curtains, but not doorstops....LOL | 04:52 |
Cheri703 | dmcglone: is that wobbly chair that you have to keep, but you don't really want ;D | 04:52 |
dmcglone | yeah, I'll go with that | 04:52 |
Unit193 | dmcglone: rdesktop for RDP? | 04:52 |
Cheri703 | the one that drives you crazy every time you use it ;) | 04:53 |
dmcglone | yeah Unit193 | 04:53 |
dmcglone | I like being used | 04:53 |
dmcglone | LMAO | 04:53 |
* Unit193 likes FreeRDP better... | 04:54 | |
dmcglone | Unit193: I didn't pay anything for it so I guess it was free also... LOL | 04:54 |
* canthus13 prefers freeNX. | 04:54 | |
* dmcglone prefers whatever works | 04:55 | |
Unit193 | Anyone have ideas for how to integrate Ubuntu into Active Directory environment? | 04:55 |
canthus13 | Magic. | 04:55 |
dmcglone | force | 04:55 |
Unit193 | canthus13: FreeNX doesn't play the best with Xubuntu :( | 04:55 |
canthus13 | Actually, though, I think Samba has provisions for that. | 04:55 |
canthus13 | that sucks. | 04:55 |
Cheri703 | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=815458 | 04:56 |
dmcglone | whats the difference between xubuntu, ubuntu and edubuntu? I assumed they were all the same, just different pre-installed apps | 04:56 |
canthus13 | dmcglone: xubuntu uses XFCE instead of GNOME. | 04:57 |
Unit193 | canthus13: Was thinking apt-cache show centrifydc | 04:57 |
canthus13 | edubuntu is GNOME with a bunch of educational packages. | 04:57 |
canthus13 | Unit193: Dunno.. I've never had to worry about ubuntu and active directory. | 04:58 |
dmcglone | I see canthus13 | 04:59 |
dmcglone | Well it's my bed time. 6am comes quick... LOL | 05:00 |
Unit193 | canthus13: It's at a location full of that type of thing and I'm testing an Ubuntu way of doing it (would be best to have a GUI) | 05:00 |
dmcglone | I'll talk to you guys later | 05:00 |
* Unit193 waves at 6am as it passes by | 05:00 | |
dmcglone | lucky you | 05:00 |
* dmcglone has 3 kids | 05:01 | |
Unit193 | Have a good one and come back soon dmcglone | 05:01 |
Cheri703 | night | 05:01 |
dmcglone | when things settle down around here I'll be back more often | 05:01 |
dmcglone | anyway, night all | 05:01 |
* Unit193 has too many FF and irssi tabs open... | 05:02 | |
Unit193 | popman: I'm also from Ohio if you hadn't guessed ;) | 05:25 |
popman | nice :D | 05:25 |
popman | that's is pretty cool :D | 05:26 |

canthus13 | Heh. | 05:30 |
popman | you guys have a swedish, german, and poland reloco ? | 05:30 |
canthus13 | we don't, but Sweden, Germany, and Poland all have LoCos. | 05:30 |
canthus13 | dunno 'bout ReLoCos, though. | 05:30 |
Cheri703 | who updates our website canthus13 ? | 05:30 |
popman | o nice | 05:30 |
Cheri703 | mansfield isn't on there :( :( | 05:31 |
canthus13 | Umm.. Jacob, I think. | 05:31 |
Cheri703 | wonder how many people have looked and missed the fact that mansfield has one | 05:31 |
canthus13 | Dunno.. I never looked for a Mansfield ReLoCo... Where's that, anyway? :) | 05:32 |
Cheri703 | paultag, gilbert_: if either of you see jacob, can Mansfield's ReLoCo get added to the list? | 05:32 |
Cheri703 | mmmmhm | 05:32 |
canthus13 | Cheri703: Oh... and my employer is holding a job fair wednesday. | 05:32 |

Unit193 | popman: Do you use lubuntu, xubuntu or both? (or fluxbuntu ;) ) | 05:34 |
popman | fluxbuntu | 05:34 |
popman | pretty ncie good for older computers :D | 05:35 |
Cheri703 | paultag does a lot with fluxbuntu | 05:37 |
popman | nice | 05:37 |
Unit193 | Cheri703: fluxbuntu? I thought it was fluxbox + fubuntu--desktop | 05:38 |
Cheri703 | oh, I dunno | 05:39 |
Cheri703 | something with flux | 05:39 |
Cheri703 | *shrug* /me is tired | 05:39 |
popman | my main system is windows but but meh =P | 05:39 |
Unit193 | popman: I'm a Windows/*Ubuntu user too (Only L/XUbuntu, not really using Ubuntu :p ) | 06:06 |
popman2 | <Unit193>popman: I'm a Windows/*Ubuntu user too (Only L/XUbuntu, not really using Ubuntu :p ) <--- nice, hope i won't get ridiculed for using windows. I just use both | 06:52 |
Unit193 | Well, if you need help with Linux or windows, I'll sure try! | 06:53 |
popman2 | thank you :D | 06:56 |
popman2 | I am always learning things with linux | 06:56 |
popman2 | last group i was in it was to fanatic in open source, I got ridiculed for using win as main so I had to leave eventually =P | 06:57 |
popman2 | I like open source but I use win as well for things. | 06:59 |
Unit193 | I know... just one question: do you like Vista? | 06:59 |
popman2 | I've had driver issues with vista but I'm indiffernt about it because I never really did much in it lol | 07:00 |
popman2 | for instance sterio mix in vista always failed | 07:00 |
popman2 | also anything with sound with vista failed | 07:01 |
Cheri703 | popman2: we aren't fanatics here | 07:01 |
Cheri703 | we're crazy weird, don't get me wrong, but not fanatics :D | 07:01 |
popman2 | thank you :D | 07:02 |
popman2 | I supposrt open source but I mean we gotta live and what not | 07:02 |
Unit193 | I use Win, but I ssh into my Lubuntu ALL the time! | 07:02 |
Cheri703 | have you checked out #ubuntu-beginners? that's a good place to ask questions as well | 07:02 |
Cheri703 | *generally | 07:02 |
popman2 | nope I'll check it out :D | 07:02 |
* Cheri703 idles in there | 07:03 | |
Cheri703 | feel free to ask in here too, you're just more likely to get a timely response there | 07:03 |
Cheri703 | also a larger pool of knowledge | 07:03 |
popman2 | wow | 07:03 |
popman2 | never knew of these nice irc channels on freenode | 07:03 |
Cheri703 | yeah, there's a TON of ubuntu channels | 07:04 |
Unit193 | I seem to be the only one alive in #xubuntu... anyone want to help? ;) | 07:04 |
Cheri703 | I'm assuming from your nick that you're male? | 07:04 |
popman2 | yup I'm male | 07:04 |
Cheri703 | kk | 07:04 |
Unit193 | Did you checkout? https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-us-ohio | 07:06 |
popman2 | nopers | 07:07 |
popman2 | this is helpful :D | 07:07 |
Unit193 | There is some sort of meet going on in C-bus soon (if it's still going on?) | 07:08 |
popman2 | o | 07:08 |
popman2 | what are meetings like? | 07:09 |
Unit193 | Sit and talk about what you want to talk about with random Ubuntu users | 07:09 |
popman2 | cool | 07:10 |
Cheri703 | they're fairly low key | 07:10 |
Unit193 | Can be help related or just talk | 07:10 |
popman2 | so I can talk about some open source stuff? | 07:10 |
popman2 | how about rep rap? | 07:11 |
Cheri703 | well, generally we have "ubuntu hours" which are just a group hanging out at a panera or such, but yeah, if you have a specific topic, you can likely talk about it. gilbert_ is the columbus lead | 07:12 |
Unit193 | It's the start of replicators!!! | 07:12 |
popman2 | LOL | 07:13 |
Unit193 | Googled | 07:14 |
Cheri703 | friend of mine in the uk built one with a friend | 07:14 |
popman2 | really | 07:15 |
popman2 | that's really cool | 07:15 |
popman2 | I've been thinking about building one myself | 07:16 |
