[05:12] ola [07:37] Steam on "Linux": http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=ODIwNQ [07:39] again [14:07] Hiyas all [16:15] howdy [16:18] hi willwh [16:23] :) [16:23] how's it going BluesKaj ? [16:25] ok here, some rain ..but we need it [16:30] I hear that === willwh is now known as willwh`away === willwh`away is now known as willwh [19:08] well, just got ubuntu [19:09] and..... [19:09] eh, just making sure, you guys are reading me as khoover, not IRC, right? [19:09] i read ya loud and clear [19:10] alright. pidgin looks weird with the non-monospace font. [19:14] pidgin is horrible for irc, imo ;] [19:15] aha, well, what's a better one, then? since i'm new. [19:15] if you want a native IRC client - I'd strongly suggest x-chat, if you want something with a gui :) [19:16] apt-get install xchat [19:16] :] [19:16] ah, k. [19:16] that's what i use [19:16] willwh, you using xchat in .04 or .10? [19:16] web links don't seem to open for me in 11.10 [19:16] I don't, I use irssi :] [19:16] ahh :P [19:19] well, let's try xchat, then. it have server-connect scripting built in? [19:19] also, i'm loving aptitude. [19:20] khoover: yeah aptitude is great [19:20] khoover: you mean for passing ident / etc? [19:20] yeah [19:20] willwh: yeah [19:20] it has it? [19:20] http://xchat.org/docs/ [19:20] oh yeah [19:21] http://docs.zetaboards.com/irc/xchat [19:22] is a decent enough guide for it [19:22] aaaaaah. [19:22] obviously, replace ChatSpike with Freenode :p [19:23] http://xchat.org/faq/ <- helpful [19:23] billybigrigger_: stop unplugging your router [19:23] D: [19:24] ubuntu 2d it is [19:24] feckin compiz [19:25] ok, that was annoying [19:25] what? :] [19:26] computer decided to shutdown instantly. probably using too much [19:26] CPU w/ boinc [19:30] ah well [19:32] any way to limit BOINC to ~90 properly? [19:38] why is it that i seem to crash so often running boinc on full throttle? [19:52] khoover: nice it? [19:53] khoover: otherwise: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/cpu-usage-limiter-for-linux/ [19:55] problem with both of those is that they're process specific. w/ BOINC, it's really several different apps being coordinated by another one, with apps coming and going rapidly. >_< [19:59] bah, just happened again [20:01] http://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/Preferences [20:01] states "Use at most X% of CPU time"? [20:02] in general prefs [20:03] still manages to crash. probably cause my laptop has rather crappy cooling. === khoover_ is now known as khoover [20:07] khoover: I wouldn't run boinc on a laptop ;]
