drussellKilos: very true09:50
inetproKilos: I hate sales talk with a passion, especially those who like to boast and mislead people into buying stuff that they do not need, so I rather keep me self educated so I can have an idea about things09:50
Kiloslol09:51
drussellinetpro: that's the best way to be, know a little bit about everything09:51
Kilosinetpro, you should try ubuntu09:51

SquirmI'm using tint2 as a panel. anyone know of any volume control apps? It can't take applets, but it does have a tray, so there must be a little volume icon that minimises to I can atleast adjust my volume without having to start something like pavucontrol12:17

Kiloshey nlsthzn_work 16:07
nlsthzn_workHey uncle Kilos :)16:07
=== Squirm2 is now known as Squirm
scar[w]naand Kilos16:38
Kiloshaai scar[w] 16:38
scar[w]ek sal maar ook die irc proxy metode moet vat, dan sal ek ook meer op irc wees16:40
Kiloswatse proxy metode16:40
scar[w]eintlik is dit nie die regte woord om te gebruik nie, ek is op soek na 'n app wat irc-server join en dan vir my toe laat om by die app in te log16:42
Kilosinstaleer xchat an stel dit om te begin op boot dan as jy by die pc is dan is jy by irc ook16:42
Kiloswatse ubuntu gebruik jy scar[w] 16:43
scar[w]sodat ek op my pc by die huis en op die masjien by my werk gelyk ingelog kan wees met net 1 nick wat op irc wys16:43
Kiloskubuntu het quassel16:43
Kilosen xchat op gnome16:43
scar[w]lucid hier by die werk, oreiric by die huis16:43
Kilosop lucid sudo aptitude install xchat16:44
scar[w]ek gebruik altyd konversation, creature of habbit :)16:44
Kiloswat is oreiric16:44
scar[w]ubuntu 11.1016:44
Kilosoh my16:45
Kiloskry xchat op altwee16:45
scar[w]die icelot16:45
superflyscar[w]: quassel is an IRC bouncer of a sort, which allows you to read the backlog after connecting16:45
Kiloslol16:45
superflyI love Konversation, but Quassel's bouncer is like none other16:46
superflyso I use Quassel16:46
scar[w]bouncer was the term I was looking for :)16:47
Kilosquassel uses lotsa data on non kubuntu16:47
Kiloswhats a bouncer superfly 16:47
scar[w]I did not know they incorporated that into irc clients16:47
scar[w](gui clients)16:48
superflyscar[w]: not until recently... I think Quassel is the first one16:48
Kilosi dunno the new releases but others have quassel in synaptic16:48
superflyKilos: it's where you have an IRC client that stays connected to the network all the time, and then you just connect to the client to get into IRC - that way you stay connected all the time without needing to be logged in to a PC16:49
Kilosoh goodness. ty superfly 16:49
Kilosdidnt you have bandwith limits scar[w] 16:49
scar[w]Kilos none for the next 3 months :)16:50
Kilosyay then get quassel16:50
scar[w]hence me being on the latest kernel with mesa git :)16:50
Kiloslol16:50
scar[w]if I want to use quasel I will have to run it in a vfb, thats just nasty :P16:53
scar[w]I don't keep my desktop at home on through out the day16:53
Kiloswhy what does aptitude say16:53
scar[w]I don't have an xserver on my server16:54
Kilosthen get xchat man16:54
scar[w]I'll have to go with psyBNC16:56
scar[w]xchat also requires an xserver16:56
Kilosim lost16:56
Kilosinst xserver part of you basic install16:57
Kilosthat xorg goodie16:57
scar[w]I actually purposefully did not install it16:57
Kilosoh16:58
superflyscar[w]: you don't need X on your server, you install quassel-core16:58
Kilosis there a reason for that16:58
superfly(or quasselcore, or whatever the package's name is)16:59
scar[w]thanks superfly I will try it out16:59
superflyscar[w]: and then your on your desktops you install quassel-client-qt4 for the Qt version or quassel-client for the KDE version16:59
superfly(use the Qt version if you're on Gnome, it doesn't bring in any KDE dependencies17:00
superfly)17:00
scar[w]Kilos: yeah I need to save all the processing power / memory that I can possibly save17:00
Kilosoh 17:01
scar[w]last time I used quassel that wasn't a version that used kde4's libs, seems I'm a little bit behind, need to read up!17:02
superflyscar[w]: yeah, Kubuntu wanted to make the monolithic version of Quassel the default IRC client, so they made it integrate with KDE better17:03
Kilosso is the xserver mainly there for the graphics then17:18
Kilosand what desktop you got without graphics?17:19
scar[w]command line :)17:36
Kilosis that all??17:36
scar[w]of cource :P17:37
Kilosouch17:37
scar[w]*course17:37
Kilosid be lost17:37
Kiloslike my cli to be surrounded by a pretty desktop17:37
nlsthzn_workTerminal is only for the ultimate fu-master...17:37
Kiloslol17:37
scar[w]need to go play some moonbuggy while you're waiting for stuff to compile/download17:38
Kilosscar did you look at weechat17:46
Kilosgrrr17:46
Kilosscar[w], ^17:46
scar[w]I have not seen it before17:48
scar[w]mostly used irssi17:48
scar[w]if I need multi protocol chat I suppose I can intergrate it with minbif17:49
Kilosoh wont that work either without x17:50
Kilosxserver i mean17:51
Kilosit says its a console irc client scar[w] 17:54
scar[w]yes it will work :)17:54
