| module000 | kwadroke: that awakened my inner super-geek i think | 20:33 |
| kwadroke | treacherous: we talk about Linux/tech related topics | 20:34 |
| treacherous | ah, great, I'll brb I have to check this make sure it works | 20:34 |
| kwadroke | most people are from the AR area, but not necessarily from AR | 20:34 |
| kwadroke | I bought Artemis yesterday and we played 5-6 games last noght | 20:35 |
| kwadroke | *night | 20:35 |
| module000 | kwadroke: using voice, or did you hve an in person setup? | 20:35 |
| treacherous | ah okay, I'm fairly old but new. I haven't used linux in a time, anyway, nice to meet you guys | 20:36 |
| kwadroke | we had a in person setup | 20:36 |
| module000 | kwadroke: i'm envious | 20:36 |
| module000 | treacherous: hey that's good, you'll notice how much nicer it is now if it's been awhile | 20:36 |
| kwadroke | I work at a LAN center so we've got plenty of machines | 20:36 |
| module000 | kwadroke: if i remember right from a year ago or so, acxiom? | 20:37 |
| kwadroke | yeah | 20:37 |
| treacherous | yeah, I.. ubuntu was not.. thrilling, especially after spending too much time before I realized I could switch to classic view. So now I'm on mint, and I like. | 20:37 |
| module000 | i work with a bunch of geeks, but not sure if they would go for it here...i ought to try though ;] | 20:37 |
| kwadroke | I want to get a game going here at work | 20:37 |
| kwadroke | treacherous: we're not an ubuntu only channel even though that's kinda what brought us here | 20:44 |
| treacherous | yeah, that's fine, mint is really close.. so | 20:44 |
| kwadroke | yeah | 20:45 |
| treacherous | I just moved to Arkansas. | 20:45 |
| kwadroke | cool | 20:46 |
| module000 | where from? | 20:46 |
| treacherous | Arizona | 20:46 |
| treacherous | are you both originally from Arkansas? | 20:48 |
| kwadroke | yes, but I moved to california for a while before coming back | 20:49 |
| kwadroke | been back for ~18yrs | 20:49 |
| treacherous | I've been here for about 4 months, it's very beautiful out here, especially compared to Arizona.. which was named after dirt. | 20:54 |
| danielveazey | Hi all. I'm trying out Linux Mint today. | 23:33 |
| a_unix_geek | I like Mint | 23:34 |
| a_unix_geek | I have gloria in a vm on the laptop. | 23:34 |
| treacherous | I do too | 23:35 |
| treacherous | uh the mint | 23:35 |
| treacherous | not gloria whoever that is | 23:35 |
| danielveazey | When I installed, I set it up to have my home folder on a separate partition. | 23:35 |
| a_unix_geek | It seems a bit edgier, and more aimed toward users in the middle - whereas ubuntu is friendly for the unexpereinced and gentto is for the advanced | 23:35 |
| treacherous | I haven't had a fraction of the problems with mint as I have with ubuntu.. | 23:36 |
| danielveazey | It was pretty easy to do | 23:36 |
| danielveazey | I have already hit two problems so far | 23:37 |
| a_unix_geek | with Mint or ubuntu? | 23:37 |
| danielveazey | The first time I booted, I got an error message that said the swap partition failed to mount | 23:37 |
| danielveazey | Mint | 23:37 |
| a_unix_geek | ahh, weird | 23:37 |
| danielveazey | I rebooted and did not get the message a second time | 23:37 |
| danielveazey | But on that reboot, I got a message saying that one of the notification widgets failed or something. It didn't seem like a big deal. | 23:41 |
| treacherous | I like it when fights erupt in the large irc rooms, it's comical and makes me laugh. | 23:53 |
