[20:33] <kwadroke> that would be me that mentioned artemis
[20:33] <module000> kwadroke: that awakened my inner super-geek i think
[20:34] <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
[20:35] <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?
[20:36] <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
[20:37] <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
[20:44] <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
[20:45] <kwadroke> yeah
[20:45] <treacherous> I just moved to Arkansas.
[20:46] <kwadroke> cool
[20:46] <module000> where from?
[20:46] <treacherous> Arizona
[20:48] <treacherous> are you both originally from Arkansas?
[20:49] <kwadroke> yes, but I moved to california for a while before coming back
[20:49] <kwadroke> been back for ~18yrs
[20:54] <treacherous> I've been here for about 4 months, it's very beautiful out here, especially compared to Arizona.. which was named after dirt.
[23:33] <danielveazey> Hi all. I'm trying out Linux Mint today.
[23:34] <a_unix_geek> I like Mint
[23:34] <a_unix_geek> I have gloria in a vm on the laptop.
[23:35] <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
[23:36] <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
[23:37] <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
[23:41] <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.
[23:53] <treacherous> I like it when fights erupt in the large irc rooms, it's comical and makes me laugh.
