[00:01] So is anyone close to Case Western Reserve and interested in meeting up sometime April 21-22 ? [00:06] one goddamn day late nhandler [00:07] paultag: We probably are flying in the night before, not sure when you are leaving [00:08] 20th, 7-ish [00:08] Doesn't look like it will work out (unless we bump into each other at the airport) [00:08] aye :) [04:08] Hi all. Anyone know if ndiswrapper supports monitor drivers? [04:08] dmcglone! javenm [04:09] that was supposed to be "haven't seen you in a while!" [04:09] yo dmcglone [04:10] I have no clue [04:10] "haven't seen you in a while" LOL [04:11] 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 [04:12] highest it will go is 800zx600 [04:12] it's a 20" acer flat screen [04:13] which version of ubuntu? [04:13] 9.10 [04:13] that may be why [04:13] I put 10.10 on client's computer and it was very happy with the 21" screen [04:14] Acer? [04:14] uhm, asus [04:14] 9.10 may just not support bigger screens? [04:15] Not sure. but upgrading to 10.10 is worth a shot [04:15] at least try it with a livecd [04:15] yeah [04:15] I didn't think about that [04:15] smart advice :-) [04:16] hopefully it works! [04:16] yes. I want these people to like Linux [04:17] My sister loves it [04:17] :) [04:17] she e-mailed me today telling me that she created a Diploma on her Ubuntu. (she home schools her kids) [04:18] nice! [04:18] oooo, dmcglone I meant to tell you [04:18] I have a domain for my business now :) [04:18] www.techheroohio.com [04:19] She's pretty happy about it [04:19] Cool [04:19] and there's another computer repair business moving into the area :( [04:19] commercial or individual? [04:19] commercial [04:20] they don't stand a chance if you keep your prices lower :-) [04:20] 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] they got much more overhead [04:20] also, I'm not intimidating for women clients [04:21] Cheri703: What is it? [04:21] can't remember, there's a job posted on craigslist [04:22] well if you advertise for yourself, you can get clients that they couldn't because you can keep your prices down [04:22] yeah [04:22] I'm going to go get some flyers and more business cards printed his week [04:22] I compete with geek squad here :-/ [04:22] :( [04:22] I have to get an actual website figured out, right now it's just my flyer as a placeholder [04:23] I think geek squad is a joke [04:23] oh yeah [04:23] I have some fun links about it [04:23] well you let me know when your ready if you want [04:23] * Cheri703 is super poor [04:24] thats ok, we can work something out for you if you like [04:24] I'd definitely be up for having a website set up! [04:25] How else is geek squad going to get your porn... [04:26] 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] ok, I'll think about it and mock up something [04:27] Ok, show me as much as you can that you would like on the site [04:27] ok, I'll work on it. I appreciate it! [04:28] No problem. [04:29] also let me know what you would like to have in a web package, databases? how much MB etc. etc [04:29] ftp access [04:29] hmm...not sure. I have it with my existing hosting account at this point [04:30] stuff of that nature and I'll try and cherry pick everything you want for a lower monthly cost [04:30] ok, cool [04:31] I'm sorry, I forgot you already have hosting, so don't think I'm trying to pressure you. [04:31] nah, it's ok [04:31] if you can be cheaper, I'd go for it! [04:31] :D [04:31] You decide. in the meantime, we will work on your site [04:32] how much is your hosting pacakge and what is included? [04:32] kk, thanks :) I'll start planning [04:32] it's the standard (lower) yearly package from byethost [04:32] let me take a look [04:34] you only get 250GB/Mo? that sux [04:35] 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] so... [04:36] true [04:36] there's no ftp with them [04:37] tomorrow I'll get you something together :-) [04:37] :) [04:37] brb, going to reboot [04:37] ok [04:38] what ya been up to Unit193? [04:40] dmcglone: Just put a DVD drive and +1G ram this oldish Xubunt box.... [04:40] Will be testing out Xubuntu with Active Directory at "work" [04:41] sounds like you got your hands full [04:42] Na, just doing random crap... [04:42] You? [04:42] (I also don't do much *ubuntu stuff, except IRC help) [04:43] I don't do much myself because I'm usually buisy [04:44] sometimes I feel guilty that I can't do much [04:44] * Cheri703 missed what you're talking about [04:45] talking to Unit193 about what he's been up to [04:45] dmcglone: ...aren't you up way past your bedtime? :) [04:45] ah, gotcha [04:45] LOL Canthus, I'm about to be turning in. [04:46] 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] :) [04:47] My only contribution so far is advocating the use of it [04:47] dmcglone: Don't you have LP Karma? [04:47] but in my eyes, anything's better than Microsoft [04:48] I'm not following [04:48] LP? [04:48] Launchpad [04:48] did you try the live cd dmcglone? [04:48] even try 10.04 [04:49] LOL I think they would be pretty mad if I showed up at their door at 12am [04:49] LOL [04:49] ah, didn't know if you had it at your house :) [04:49] but earlier I was working through RDP [04:49] gotcha [04:50] Unit193: Cheer up. you're not useless. You make a perfectly adequate doorstop. :) [04:50] canthus13: I thought that would be me [04:50] dmcglone: Nah. *YOU'RE* useless. :) [04:50] LMAO [04:51] can't even be a curtain rod? [04:51] Hmm... [04:51] well it's an enabeling job [04:51] lol [04:52] You see every room needs curtains, but not doorstops....LOL [04:52] dmcglone: is that wobbly chair that you have to keep, but you don't really want ;D [04:52] yeah, I'll go with that [04:52] dmcglone: rdesktop for RDP? [04:53] the one that drives you crazy every time you use it ;) [04:53] yeah Unit193 [04:53] I like being used [04:53] LMAO [04:54] * Unit193 likes FreeRDP better... [04:54] Unit193: I didn't pay anything for it so I guess it was free also... LOL [04:54] * canthus13 prefers freeNX. [04:55] * dmcglone prefers whatever works [04:55] Anyone have ideas for how to integrate Ubuntu into Active Directory environment? [04:55] Magic. [04:55] force [04:55] canthus13: FreeNX doesn't play the best with Xubuntu :( [04:55] Actually, though, I think Samba has provisions for that. [04:55] that sucks. [04:56] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=815458 [04:56] whats the difference between xubuntu, ubuntu and edubuntu? I assumed they were all the same, just different pre-installed apps [04:57] dmcglone: xubuntu uses XFCE instead of GNOME. [04:57] canthus13: Was thinking apt-cache show centrifydc [04:57] edubuntu is GNOME with a bunch of educational packages. [04:58] Unit193: Dunno.. I've never had to worry about ubuntu and active directory. [04:59] I see canthus13 [05:00] Well it's my bed time. 6am comes quick... LOL [05:00] 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] I'll talk to you guys later [05:00] * Unit193 waves at 6am as it passes by [05:00] lucky you [05:01] * dmcglone has 3 kids [05:01] Have a good one and come back soon dmcglone [05:01] night [05:01] when things settle down around here I'll be back more often [05:01] anyway, night all [05:02] * Unit193 has too many FF and irssi tabs open... [05:25] popman: I'm also from Ohio if you hadn't guessed ;) [05:25] nice :D [05:26] that's is pretty cool :D [05:26] In the LoCo there are also ReLoCos that have bi-weekly meetups! [05:26] nice [05:27] is this new? [05:28] I think since '06 [05:28] o [05:28] never knew :D [05:28] popman: where are you located? [05:28] so you guys support open source then? [05:28] http://ohio.ubuntu-us.org/reloco <--- any close to you? [05:28] *where in ohio [05:28] Columbus [05:29] that's cool [05:29] you? [05:29] Mansfield [05:29] Columbus reloco has a U-H either this week or next. [05:29] canthus13: http://www.geekculture.com/joyoftech/joyarchives/349.html [05:30] Heh. [05:30] you guys have a swedish, german, and poland reloco ? [05:30] we don't, but Sweden, Germany, and Poland all have LoCos. [05:30] dunno 'bout ReLoCos, though. [05:30] who updates our website canthus13 ? [05:30] o nice [05:31] mansfield isn't on there :( :( [05:31] Umm.. Jacob, I think. [05:31] wonder how many people have looked and missed the fact that mansfield has one [05:32] Dunno.. I never looked for a Mansfield ReLoCo... Where's that, anyway? :) [05:32] paultag, gilbert_: if either of you see jacob, can Mansfield's ReLoCo get added to the list? [05:32] mmmmhm [05:32] Cheri703: Oh... and my employer is holding a job fair wednesday. [05:32] :( :( [05:32] TELECOMMUTE! [05:32] Heh. [05:33] ooo [05:33] cool [05:34] popman: Do you use lubuntu, xubuntu or both? (or fluxbuntu ;) ) [05:34] fluxbuntu [05:35] pretty ncie good for older computers :D [05:37] paultag does a lot with fluxbuntu [05:37] nice [05:38] Cheri703: fluxbuntu? I thought it was fluxbox + fubuntu--desktop [05:39] oh, I dunno [05:39] something with flux [05:39] *shrug* /me is tired [05:39] my main system is windows but but meh =P [06:06] popman: I'm a Windows/*Ubuntu user too (Only L/XUbuntu, not really using Ubuntu :p ) [06:52] 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 [06:53] Well, if you need help with Linux or windows, I'll sure try! [06:56] thank you :D [06:56] I am always learning things with linux [06:57] 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 [06:59] I like open source but I use win as well for things. [06:59] I know... just one question: do you like Vista? [07:00] I've had driver issues with vista but I'm indiffernt about it because I never really did much in it lol [07:00] for instance sterio mix in vista always failed [07:01] also anything with sound with vista failed [07:01] popman2: we aren't fanatics here [07:01] we're crazy weird, don't get me wrong, but not fanatics :D [07:02] thank you :D [07:02] I supposrt open source but I mean we gotta live and what not [07:02] I use Win, but I ssh into my Lubuntu ALL the time! [07:02] have you checked out #ubuntu-beginners? that's a good place to ask questions as well [07:02] *generally [07:02] nope I'll check it out :D [07:03] * Cheri703 idles in there [07:03] feel free to ask in here too, you're just more likely to get a timely response there [07:03] also a larger pool of knowledge [07:03] wow [07:03] never knew of these nice irc channels on freenode [07:04] yeah, there's a TON of ubuntu channels [07:04] I seem to be the only one alive in #xubuntu... anyone want to help? ;) [07:04] I'm assuming from your nick that you're male? [07:04] yup I'm male [07:04] kk [07:06] Did you checkout? https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-us-ohio [07:07] nopers [07:07] this is helpful :D [07:08] There is some sort of meet going on in C-bus soon (if it's still going on?) [07:08] o [07:09] what are meetings like? [07:09] Sit and talk about what you want to talk about with random Ubuntu users [07:10] cool [07:10] they're fairly low key [07:10] Can be help related or just talk [07:10] so I can talk about some open source stuff? [07:11] how about rep rap? [07:12] 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] It's the start of replicators!!! [07:13] LOL [07:14] Googled [07:14] friend of mine in the uk built one with a friend [07:15] really [07:15] that's really cool [07:16] I've been thinking about building one myself [07:35] Wow [07:35] late night for the ohio folks >.> [07:35] Always is... [07:36] last night I fell asleep in my recliner with my mouse in my hand and the light on...woke up in the exact same position....was odd [07:36] How have you been doing BiosElement? [07:36] Ahh not bad now days heh, good work recently [14:34] Morning Ohio [14:36] So I guess wednesday is the more or less official 20th aniversary of the beginnings of linux [14:36] kinda crazy [14:37] especially since most of the loco members were not born or in diapers then :) [14:37] * thafreak is looking at paultag [15:26] you getting all greybeard on us, thafreak? [16:05] thafreak: hey :) [16:07] get off my lawn deejoe [16:15] heh [16:15] not sure which of us is older. [16:15] you older than Unix? [16:16] * deejoe casts an appraising glance at thafreak [16:17] nope...older than linux...but not unix [16:18] not even older than microsoft...but close [16:19] well, then, you get off my lawn [16:19] you older than microsoft? [16:19] I have younger siblings than are older than Microsoft [16:20] well, then I'll kindly stay off your lawn...but I'll be watching you from my porch [16:20] whilst I whittle [16:20] fair enough [16:21] s/than/that/ [18:38] it seems it helps if you actually RTFM...sometimes I forget that === thafreak_ is now known as thafreak [18:39] thafreak: Heh. [18:40] kept trying to try out FreeNas on a VM and could never seem to get it to work [18:41] Was using some kind of upgrade image, and trying to boot it as a virtual disk... [18:41] guess I should have read the install instructions :) === Derath-S1vr is now known as Derath-Srvr === Cheri703_ is now known as Cheri703 [23:21] And wonderful [23:21] My lead dev just claimed he'd lie about dev work and I'd be too ignorent to tell the difference. [23:21] And he wonders why I don't trust him. >.>
