Kilosgood try dLimit  and you?08:20
Kilossjoe forgot to tab08:20
dLimitI'm good still having a hard time with this macbook and xchat though08:21
dLimitOnly way I can get xchat is to compile it from source08:22
dLimitI mean irssi not xchat08:22
Kilostry run ubuntu alongside and see if the mac accepts it08:22
Kilosyou can also try weechat08:22
KilosMaaz, google weechat for mac pc's08:23
MaazKilos: "WeeChat, the extensible chat client" http://www.weechat.org/ :: "WeeChat :: download" http://www.weechat.org/download/ :: "WeeChat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WeeChat :: "weechat Alternatives and Similar Software - AlternativeTo.net" http://alternativeto.net/software/weechat/ :: "IRC-Client - Chat4AllFAQ" http://wiki.chat4all.org/index.php/IRC-Client :: "WeeChat - Bugs: bug #26690, compile fails 08:23
dLimitUbuntu should work on the powerpc arch but the problem will arise with most of the software in the ubuntu repo compiled for x8608:24
dLimitIt would be best for me to go for something like yellow dog thats made for powerpc or gentoo that I can compile myself.08:25
Kiloswhew you like working hey08:26
Kilosif everything else works fine try weechat08:27
dLimitHave you tried bodhi linux, Kilos?08:27
Kilosno dLimit i only use ubuntu08:28
dLimitIts basically ubuntu with enlightenment desktop environment. Its what I currently use at home08:28
Kilostried susu when i first heard of linux but was lost so hunted for ubuntu08:28
dLimitWhich ubuntu are you using?08:29
Kilossuse sorry08:29
Kilosmaverick 10.1008:29
Kiloshave tried xubuntu 11.0408:29
Kilosnot my cuppa08:30
Kilosi kinda used to gnome08:30
dLimitI don't like this new unity interface.08:30
dLimitI like gnome myself.08:30
Kilossomeone last night spoke about gnome something or other08:31
Kilosgnome shell08:31
dLimitI prefer lxterminal and xrvt08:33
dLimitEspecially becuase I use openbox mostly08:33
Kilosah you a terminal guy08:34
Kilosi use the terminal but like the drag and drop and right click features of gui08:35
Kilostoo many commands to remember08:35
dLimitYeah I love my command line its faster than gui and even doing simple things I find myself rather using the cli but thats the great thing of linux theres no "one true way" of doing it.08:37
dLimitEven on windows I'd rather use its cmd even though its way more mindless than the unix shell08:37
Kilosi like using aptitude to install08:37
Kilosand apt-get for update and upgrade08:38
Kilosbut in synaptic you can chooose what apps you want, in cli you gotta know beforehand08:39
dLimitYeah I actually enjoy using synaptic more because I can view screenshots.08:40
Kiloslol08:40
dLimitBut I have been using allot of different distro's recently and most of them do not have a graphical package manager.08:41

magespawnyes have registered there already but only for my laptop10:56
Kiloshttp://linuxcounter.net10:56
Kilosthey would like the number of machines as well10:56

Wolfeyesnice magespawn where did you do that?10:59
magespawnHluhluwe GR11:00
magespawni was the guide11:00
WolfeyesAwesome...lol11:00
Wolfeyesdo you do that for a living or extra money?11:00
magespawnhad a good drive too .11:01
magespawni do quite a few things for money11:01
WolfeyesSo do we all but it depnds if it is full time or part time.11:01
magespawnalmost everything is part time at the moment. none of them pay enough to only do that.11:02
Wolfeyesah11:02
magespawnwas a full time guide then decided i had enough of being an employee and decided to start my own business.11:03
WolfeyesI am trying to push a friend of mine in the same direction.11:03
magespawnwhich direction?11:04
Wolfeyesbeing a guide working with their own company.11:04
magespawnyou can very rarely do both. and if you do the hours you work are insane.11:05
Wolfeyesas long as they get the customers, they can make enough from the transfers alone.11:05
magespawnbut the lifestyle and the places you and things you get to see and do are awesome11:06
WolfeyesNodz11:06
magespawnplaces you go11:06
Wolfeyes<--- reads typo's except when Kilos types them :-P11:06

magespawnif you are doing all the work like driving, marketing, admin then the work load is too much11:07
magespawnyou have to have a team even if it is a small one to start with.11:08
Wolfeyesyeah, they have people to add to the group but they were always to scared to take the jump.11:08
magespawndamn look like the upgrade borked the mythbuntu install, going to have to start again or recover11:08
