SamuraiAlba | Good bacon to all! | 12:08 |
SamuraiAlba | Not a radeon 6670 in lappy... 6770. But the BIOS initializes the Intel HD 3000 first >.< | 12:09 |
mikedep333 | ahh, yes, the nvidia "optimus switchable graphics" | 12:13 |
mikedep333 | on windows, people can't get their graphics driver directly from nvidia.com | 12:13 |
SamuraiAlba | This is AMD/ATI, tho | 12:14 |
mikedep333 | they are once again at the mercy of dell/toshiba/acer/etc for graphics driver updates | 12:14 |
mikedep333 | oh | 12:14 |
mikedep333 | my bad | 12:14 |
SamuraiAlba | If I install the latest Catalyst drivers myself, when I reboot, Ubuntu says "no screens found" | 12:14 |
SamuraiAlba | and I'm at a command prompt | 12:14 |
* SamuraiAlba sighs | 12:14 | |
SamuraiAlba | I CAN install the closed driver via the little card icon when I first install, and that runs fine, but I need the latest for AMD APP SDK :P | 12:15 |
mikedep333 | SamuraiAlba, I noticed this in the windows release notes | 12:15 |
mikedep333 | http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/AMDCatalyst118ReleaseNotes.aspx | 12:15 |
mikedep333 | The following notebooks are not compatible with this release:... | 12:15 |
mikedep333 | Switchable Graphics enabled notebooks using IntelĀ® chipsets. | 12:16 |
SamuraiAlba | DOH! | 12:16 |
SamuraiAlba | ok. Reinstalling Ubuntu via WUBI, again | 12:16 |
mikedep333 | http://www2.ati.com/relnotes/Catalyst_11.8_Linux_Installer.pdf | 12:17 |
SamuraiAlba | I get so frustrated trying to fix X.... | 12:17 |
mikedep333 | those are the linux release notes | 12:17 |
mikedep333 | SamuraiAlba, what catalyst driver are you using? | 12:17 |
mikedep333 | the one bundled with natty? | 12:17 |
mikedep333 | because that's from march or april or whatever | 12:17 |
mikedep333 | SamuraiAlba, also | 12:17 |
mikedep333 | have you tried unloading intel's competing kernel module(s)? | 12:18 |
SamuraiAlba | bundled, initially | 12:18 |
SamuraiAlba | and havent tried that | 12:18 |
mikedep333 | I know it accesses linux's shared ones | 12:18 |
mikedep333 | eg, dri | 12:18 |
mikedep333 | also | 12:18 |
SamuraiAlba | just gonna stick with bundled | 12:18 |
mikedep333 | google is your friend :) | 12:18 |
SamuraiAlba | and then try to get the app SDK symlinks done LOL | 12:18 |
SamuraiAlba | then.. Pyrit_OpenCL | 12:19 |
mikedep333 | SamuraiAlba, I would definitely using the august release (catalyst 11.8) | 12:19 |
mikedep333 | *definitely suggest using | 12:19 |

SamuraiAlba | :) thankies | 12:20 |
mikedep333 | np | 12:21 |
* SamuraiAlba cracks open his Velanzano Jersey Devil Forte' just to get ready | 12:21 | |
mikedep333 | Samurai must learn google fu to defeat their opponents! | 12:21 |
SamuraiAlba | I prefer exerting about 11k newtons of force with a knee to the sternum... | 12:21 |
* SamuraiAlba giggles | 12:21 | |
mikedep333 | lol | 12:21 |
SamuraiAlba | actually, not really, but I can joke :) | 12:22 |
* SamuraiAlba has to do more khan academy courses before college... | 12:22 | |
mikedep333 | I don't think Samurai are THAT powerful | 12:22 |
mikedep333 | ahh, yes, the khan academy | 12:22 |
SamuraiAlba | Muay Thai Chaiya... | 12:22 |
SamuraiAlba | ;) | 12:22 |
mikedep333 | by the time I heard of the Khan academy, I was in college | 12:23 |
mikedep333 | I graduated in december | 12:23 |
SamuraiAlba | gratz! What was your major :) | 12:23 |
SamuraiAlba | ? | 12:23 |
mikedep333 | Information Sciences & Technology | 12:23 |
SamuraiAlba | I'm going network maagement/cyber security at Cumberland County College | 12:23 |
mikedep333 | http://ist.psu.edu/ | 12:23 |
SamuraiAlba | *management | 12:24 |
mikedep333 | yeah, I had multiple internships in network administration | 12:24 |
mikedep333 | I went to La Salle College High School where I had my 1st one | 12:24 |
SamuraiAlba | Internsip, indentured servitude... same thing LOL | 12:24 |
SamuraiAlba | *Internship | 12:24 |
mikedep333 | SamuraiAlba, not when it's FUN! | 12:24 |
mikedep333 | just as I enjoy fixing people's computers | 12:24 |
mikedep333 | I find it fun. | 12:25 |
SamuraiAlba | Fun is cursing the devil besotted end user and changing their pasword to die-die-die... | 12:25 |
mikedep333 | lol | 12:25 |
mikedep333 | or as a network admin | 12:25 |
SamuraiAlba | I need more space! | 12:25 |
mikedep333 | setting it so they have to change their password EVERY SINGLE DAY | 12:25 |
SamuraiAlba | *deltes users files* | 12:25 |
SamuraiAlba | *Deletes | 12:25 |
SamuraiAlba | hands shaking | 12:25 |
SamuraiAlba | waiting for sugar to get back up | 12:25 |
mikedep333 | woah | 12:25 |
mikedep333 | ist.psu.edu redid their website | 12:26 |
mikedep333 | http://www.psu.edu/ did not | 12:26 |
mikedep333 | although they may have made the characters larger or something | 12:26 |
mikedep333 | ie, it is now optimized for 1024px wide screens rather than 800px wide screens | 12:26 |
mikedep333 | well I gotta leave the #touchpad #touchdroid & #webos-internals channels | 12:29 |
mikedep333 | they're just madness | 12:29 |
mikedep333 | #touchdroid was supposed to be a developers only channel for porting android to the touchpad | 12:30 |
mikedep333 | instead everyone chats about everything in there now | 12:30 |
SamuraiAlba | aye | 12:32 |
SamuraiAlba | I was thinking of getting an HP for $149 (32gb) | 12:33 |
SamuraiAlba | decide the 1k laptop is better LOL | 12:33 |
SamuraiAlba | *decided | 12:33 |
mikedep333 | SamuraiAlba, why not get a $850 laptop & a $150 touchpad? | 12:43 |
mikedep333 | If all my orders go through, I will have either a $150 + tax touchpad or a $100 + tax & shipping touchpad to sell | 12:44 |
mikedep333 | for what I paid | 12:44 |
SamuraiAlba | Core i7 2.0Ghz (up to 2.93), 6 GB ram, Intel HD 3000 & Radeon 6770 graphics, 750 gb HD, 2 USB 3, 2 USB 2, HDMI, gig E, VGA, beats audio, 15.?" screen, Blu ray, fingerprint scanner, 974.99 with a 50 rebate on top | 12:45 |

SamuraiAlba | Discover Black Card... *sigh* blew over 3500 on it in a week | 12:46 |
mikedep333 | nice | 12:46 |
mikedep333 | lol | 12:46 |
SamuraiAlba | they botched my financial aid, and I had to pay up front and get a check later. | 12:46 |
mikedep333 | I don't advise people spend money they don't have on luxuries. | 12:46 |
mikedep333 | I pay off my CC in full every month. | 12:46 |
SamuraiAlba | well, wasnt gonna wait till Jan for college. Wanna get it done | 12:47 |

SamuraiAlba | yw | 12:49 |
SamuraiAlba | Good bacon to all! | 15:22 |
InHisName | No bacon in a potato, sammy | 16:13 |
TheEvilPhoenix | *yawns* | 16:25 |
InHisName | When something evil yawns - it REALLY is boring | 16:28 |
waltman | NO *wonder* this channel was so quiet! | 16:41 |
waltman | http://blog.ubuntu-women.org/2011/08/new-2011-2012-ubuntu-women-leadership-team-announced/ # not sure if I should be offering pleia2 my contratulations or sympathy :) | 16:42 |
pleia2 | hehe | 16:42 |
pleia2 | thanks, it's all good | 16:42 |
waltman | Yay! | 16:43 |
pleia2 | I was joking the other day - I was the only incumbent running so I am either power hungry or like a really horrible job (same goes for ubuntu california actually) | 16:43 |
pleia2 | because, you know, ubuntu women leadership is a stepping stone for president of the world! | 16:43 |
waltman | or princess of Alderan :) | 16:46 |
jedijf | congrats pleia2, i guess tiaras are out ofthe question? | 16:47 |
pleia2 | I'll take one | 16:48 |
waltman | pink, of course. | 16:48 |
jedijf | sweet, you should definitely get one this upcoming halloween season; that's when I got my crown last year | 16:48 |
pleia2 | actually, one of the other UW leaders got me this after the UDS in Orlando I couldn't attend last year: https://picasaweb.google.com/114018915395046539523/7131103#5629025371640892882 | 16:49 |
pleia2 | (not the android, the hat, the android is just being silly) | 16:49 |
pleia2 | ((maybe I was being silly)) | 16:49 |
jedijf | this year i am adding a robe, maybe kadafi's will be on ebay | 16:53 |
pleia2 | make sure to take note of the return address | 16:57 |
MutantTurkey | o/ | 17:07 |
waltman | I had brunch with a friend yesterday, and he said that one reason he doesn't trust google/g+ is that every time he gets a facebook notification, it ends up in his gmail spam folder. | 17:09 |
MutantTurkey | waltman: I mean I don't trust G+ but that's not why... | 17:09 |
MutantTurkey | thats probably because he marked it as spam accidentally. | 17:10 |
MutantTurkey | and who the heck ever reads the facebook notification emails anyways? | 17:10 |
waltman | Anyone else have that happen? It seems unlikely that Google would be keep doing it intentionally. | 17:10 |
waltman | umm, I do. | 17:10 |
MutantTurkey | really? | 17:10 |
MutantTurkey | waltman: don't you just check facebook? | 17:10 |
waltman | I find it easier to check the folder in mutt than go to facebook. | 17:10 |
waltman | I mean, I check both, of course, depending on what I happen to be doing. | 17:11 |
MutantTurkey | what seems to be te likely situtation is that he marked it as spam and then enver un marked it. | 17:11 |
MutantTurkey | of course. I have never used the emails personally. | 17:11 |
waltman | He said he's had like 50 messages from facebook end up marked as spam. | 17:11 |
MutantTurkey | because google has a smart filter. if you tag one, then they all get tagged. | 17:11 |
MutantTurkey | all your 'friend' needs to do is "mark as not spam" | 17:12 |
MutantTurkey | either way. don't trust google. | 17:12 |
MutantTurkey | That being said, I use every single one of their services. | 17:13 |
jedijf | lol | 17:13 |
jedijf | yesterday i said i don't like tablet format, today i buy one on woot . i know the feeling | 17:14 |
waltman | That's what I told him to do. It seems unlikely that after marking 50 as "not spam", it would keep doing it. So I'm guessing he's doing something wrong. | 17:14 |
MutantTurkey | most likely | 17:14 |
jedijf | waltman: un friend him; not worthy | 17:14 |
MutantTurkey | jedijf: yeah. I am convinced against tablets and touch screens at home. on the go they are great. | 17:14 |
jedijf | unless that was his ice cream car | 17:14 |
MutantTurkey | I just don't like that everyone is pushing it. | 17:14 |
MutantTurkey | I am itching to try out ubuntu though, but I cant seem to make a usb drive of it | 17:15 |
jedijf | MutantTurkey: waht?! | 17:15 |
jedijf | MutantTurkey: livecd should still have usb creator built in; even an arch user can do it | 17:15 |
MutantTurkey | I don't have a cd drive... | 17:16 |
MutantTurkey | :| | 17:16 |
jedijf | fail | 17:16 |
jedijf | usb to ide/sata cable | 17:16 |
MutantTurkey | blech | 17:16 |
jedijf | come to sfd and i'll give you one | 17:16 |
MutantTurkey | sure | 17:16 |
MutantTurkey | I am getting increasingly pissy at ubuntu. they are practically not even in the FOSS ecosystem except to rape it for its goods. | 17:17 |
jedijf | plus, i think pacs owes you a usb drive | 17:17 |
MutantTurkey | ex. they make unity. then they don't publish it for everyone on other distros. | 17:17 |
jedijf | MutantTurkey: be careful what you ask for | 17:17 |
MutantTurkey | you just might get it | 17:17 |
jedijf | let them refine it, before they give it to others; getting enough grief from their own people | 17:17 |
MutantTurkey | I know | 17:18 |
MutantTurkey | I don't even want to talk about gnome3... what a disaster. | 17:18 |
jedijf | for me, it's a push, unity and gnome3; i have gnome3 on my arch box | 17:18 |
MutantTurkey | each new release of every DE is reduced and reduced option. | 17:18 |
MutantTurkey | jedijf: I can't seem to get gnome3 to do what I want. | 17:18 |
MutantTurkey | there are literally no options. | 17:18 |
jedijf | i don't really /use/ it, but it's there; mostly ssh into the box anyway | 17:19 |
MutantTurkey | I am working on Xfce mostly these days, just because it's as gnome2.6 asI can get it. | 17:19 |
MutantTurkey | ssh++ | 17:19 |
MutantTurkey | also they are making ubuntu steadily harder for the power user. | 17:19 |
jedijf | that's the best thing about these changes; people are finally trying/adopting alternate wm/de's | 17:19 |
MutantTurkey | I know. | 17:20 |
MutantTurkey | hopefully my one project takes off | 17:20 |
pleia2 | facebook emails don't go to my gmail spam box, maybe said friend accidentally marked one as spam once and it goes along with it now? | 17:20 |
MutantTurkey | I have been working for some time on TDE | 17:20 |
MutantTurkey | It's a awesome desktop. | 17:20 |
MutantTurkey | with our next release we are hoping to jump our user count | 17:20 |
pleia2 | g+ sends too much email by default though, it's pretty obnoxious | 17:21 |
MutantTurkey | pleia2: yes, I had to disable all my G+ emails. and buzz as well (though buzz basically failed) | 17:21 |
pleia2 | the app is noisy too "alert every time someone replies to a huddle" .. uh no, a huddle is like a chat room | 17:21 |
waltman | I'm just going to stick with windowmaker until this whole gnome/unity mess shakes itself out :) | 17:29 |
MutantTurkey | waltman: windowmaker indeed. | 17:52 |
MutantTurkey | actually jwm I used and loved for a long time. People underestimate it. | 17:53 |
MutantTurkey | it provides a robust configuration method, and a nice panel | 17:53 |
MutantTurkey | isn't it great when your boss tells you that there is a meeting at 2PM sharp, then doesn't show up. and apparently told us to meet in the wrong room where a much more serious meeting was taking place. | 18:04 |
TheEvilPhoenix | lol | 18:04 |
waltman | Maybe he showed up at the *right* room. | 18:09 |
waltman | ...and is wondering where all you slackers are. | 18:09 |
MutantTurkey | waltman:there is only one conference room. | 18:13 |
MutantTurkey | and it was reserved by some big head doodz | 18:13 |
waltman | How could he tell you the wrong room if there's only *one* room? | 18:17 |
MutantTurkey | waltman: because he wasnt there! | 18:18 |
MutantTurkey | and his office was empty | 18:18 |
waltman | Did you check the men's room? :) | 18:18 |
MutantTurkey | OH BOY. | 18:23 |
MutantTurkey | acually just got a call | 18:23 |
MutantTurkey | off I go! | 18:23 |
