[00:01] <pangolin> kick me you fools
[05:40] <InHisName> y kick when we can have roasted pangolin with dressing ?
[05:51] <InHisName> Whoz awake ?
[05:57] <andrew> dunno
[06:07] <InHisName> When I have access to Windows machine, I try to access my ubuntu one via Remote desktop.  I can log in BUT it is a new login instance, NOT the running instance of ubuntu.   Is there a way to remote desktop into ubuntu into EXISTING active login ?
[10:41] <JonathanD> Morning.
[11:00] <rmg51> morning JonathanD
[11:03] <JonathanD> hey rmg51
[11:03] <JonathanD> Sorry about that, stepped on the freenode cord when I was getting ready.
[11:08] <rmg51> see, Teddywas right
[11:09] <rmg51> it's all your fault ;-)
[11:10] <JonathanD> :[23~
[11:10] <JonathanD> :)
[12:05] <JonathanD> I'm laptop shopping...
[12:06] <JonathanD> 1680x1050 appears not to exist anymore.
[12:06] <JonathanD> Will I cry at 1600x900?
[12:27] <rmg51> will you cry as I sign off and go to work?
[12:27] <rmg51> bye-buy
[12:49] <jedijf> InHisName: vnc
[12:49] <JonathanD> yes.
[12:50] <jedijf> InHisName: there should be a 'remote desktop' under admin or use x11vnc and then any vnc client on remote machine
[12:52] <jedijf> InHisName: vnc is 5900+ port, rdp uses 3389
[13:46] <InHisName> Remote windows from library etc. HAS vnc installed ????  Where to find in start menu ?
[13:46] <InHisName> Or at friends house or other random locations.
[13:47] <InHisName> Most places seem to have Remote Desktop client installed and not disabled.
[14:00] <ChinnoDog> sup peeps
[14:09] <jthan> WOOO!
[14:12] <adom> hai
[14:14] <adom> JonathanD: my two office LCDs are 1600x900, my home desktop has a 1680x1050. its not bad
[14:14] <adom> *the 1600x900 isnt bad compared to 1680x1050 *
[14:24] <JonathanD> adom: So, on a laptop, you don't think I'll hate going 1680x1050 to 1600x900 (keeping in mind I only have one screen...)
[14:52] <adom> JonathanD: nah nothin to worry about
[14:52] <JonathanD> adom: k, thanks.
[14:53] <JonathanD> I was leaning towards the 1920x1080, but I don't really want to pay for it :P
[14:53] <adom> JonathanD: *drool*
[14:53] <JonathanD> heh.
[14:54] <JonathanD> Though I'll still get it if I can sell some more stuff soon enough.
[14:54] <JonathanD> Maybe.
[14:55] <JonathanD> Lower native res might be better if I'm going to play any games on it...
[14:55] <ChinnoDog> I need a bigger desk so I can have more monitors
[14:56] <JonathanD> :D
[14:56] <JonathanD> I need that thinkpad with the pop-out second monitor.
[14:56] <ChinnoDog> Those things must be really heavy
[14:57] <ChinnoDog> It is hard for me to imagine using a fold out monitor on a "laptop"
[14:57]  * ChinnoDog pictures unbalanced laptop with second monitor rolling off his lap and breaking into a million pieces on the floor
[15:39] <adom> if you wanted a little second screen for you laptop once and awhile, you could pack one of these: http://www.amazon.com/MIMO-UM-710S-Powered-Swivel-Display/dp/B002RMPASG
[15:39] <adom> ive wanted to try one for awhile but never did. supposedly pretty nice. powered and connected via usb.
[15:44] <JonathanD> I would like it, but it would really be too bulky :P
[15:44] <JonathanD> I just always need moar screen.
[15:45] <ChinnoDog> Seems like a laptop with a small screen + display glasses would be better

[15:48] <ChinnoDog> The toshiba one looks really funny
[16:04] <adom> ChinnoDog: i lawled thinking about watching someone using the Toshiba one
[16:04] <adom> trying to move 40lbs of headgear around quickly and hurting their neck
[16:04] <ChinnoDog> It supposedly weighs 3kg
[16:05] <ChinnoDog> but still, that is a lot
[16:05] <ChinnoDog> It is even funnier to imagine a few people sitting around together wearing them
[16:06] <ChinnoDog> I think you should get one of those so you can go outside with it adom
[16:07] <ChinnoDog> Or keep one in the car so passengers can use it. That will look totally normal.
[16:09] <adom> play a virtual reality game about walking outside. its too big to use inside though so you have to use it outside. it makes everything feel so real.

[16:43] <adom> you're all welcome
[16:43] <adom> (comments are lawltacular)
[19:43] <EvilResistance> adom, lolol
[19:46] <MutantTurkey> woop woop woop
[19:47] <EvilResistance> pew pew  *lazors*
[19:47] <EvilResistance> :P
[19:47] <EvilResistance> ANYWAYS
[19:47] <EvilResistance> hows everyone doing this fine day
[19:47] <MutantTurkey> very good
[19:47] <MutantTurkey> pew pew pew
[19:48] <MutantTurkey> I used to play Halo on my xbox and when I would run out of ammo I would just start shouting pew pew pew pew pew
[19:49] <EvilResistance> :P
[19:55] <InHisName> when I type "users" at terminal should n't I see a list of all users logged in ?    I see 3 instances of testuser but none of my main login at all.
[19:59] <MutantTurkey> its just users logged in
[19:59] <InHisName> why am I NOT seeing myself logged in ?
[19:59] <MutantTurkey> check /var/log/utmp and /var/log/wtmp
[20:00] <InHisName> utmp no such file / dir
[20:01] <InHisName> cat wtmp shows lotta 'funny' chars and usernames etc.
[20:01] <adom> InHisName: "cat /etc/passwd |grep /bin/bash"
[20:01] <adom> minus quotes, of course
[20:02] <MutantTurkey> adom: that doesn't check logged in users.
[20:02] <MutantTurkey> users should show who is currently logged in
[20:02] <MutantTurkey> InHisName: what about finger?
[20:02] <InHisName> can I finger myself ?
[20:02] <InHisName> uggh
[20:02] <EvilResistance> ...
[20:02] <EvilResistance> you realize how wrong that sounded?
[20:03] <InHisName> yea, right after hitting return
[20:03] <EvilResistance> i was going to pull a twss, but i decided against it xD\
[20:03] <ChinnoDog> I think you just did
[20:04] <EvilResistance> meh
[20:06] <InHisName> the answer seem to be yes to that uggh question.
[20:09] <InHisName> wierd:   test user has phrase "On since...."      mylogin has "Last login...."    Like I am not really logged in.
[20:10] <InHisName> The date for last login   Dec 9.  Seem last remote login attempt with that login pwd.   Seems logging in at bootup does not register.
[20:13] <MutantTurkey> InHisName: as the school teacher response to your perverted question:
[20:14] <MutantTurkey> I don't know CAN YOU finger yourself?
[20:14] <InHisName> MutantTurkey:    --> $finger MutantTurkey
[20:14] <InHisName> assuming that is your login
[20:19] <ChinnoDog> It is a CTCP command. You can finger anyone.
[20:20] <MutantTurkey> huh
[20:20] <ChinnoDog>  /ctcp finger MutantTurkey
[20:21] <ChinnoDog> A lot of clients don't implement it anymore though
[20:29] <jedijf> InHisName: try w, who, last
[21:07] <adom> InHisName: i use w and who mostly
[21:26] <Sadin> MutantTurkey wooo trying out kohana framwork its pretty nice
[21:26] <Sadin> just made a hello world app to test it
[21:28] <MutantTurkey> Sadin: col
[21:28] <MutantTurkey> we are actually converting one of the projects I work on at drexel to drupal
[21:28] <MutantTurkey> probably
[21:30] <Sadin> MutantTurkey hmmm
[21:31] <Sadin> well its a good CMS but if you have other options id take them
[21:31] <MutantTurkey> why
[21:31] <MutantTurkey> ?
[21:32] <Sadin> i like it but the speed of drupal compared to other possible solutions without a heavy php chacher built onto your server stack is ungodly slow
