[00:05] beep boop? [00:06] Howdy. [00:08] how goes it? [00:09] Just watching Chuck, and not dieing of heat. [00:13] haha. not dieing of heat is always good! [00:15] hey what (if any) laptop bag(s) do you guys have? [00:17] holy crap. I might get the HDMI cables I ordered already. [00:17] I'd be okay with that. xD [00:19] It's not here with me right now, but it is nice. [00:20] I'm looking at: http://www.amazon.com/Targus-Checkpoint-Friendly-15-6-Traveler-Laptop/dp/B00020BJA8/ref=sr_1_52?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1343433805&sr=1-52 [00:20] not JUST for the checkpoint friendly bit... but is a nice addition... esp since work will be sending me places. [00:24] altg3k3: hey i have an elcheapo targus of some sort but it gets the job done had it over the course of two laptops [00:28] define:elcheapo [00:30] well i think it was a 15 buck deal off tiger direct they probably don't even make them anymore [00:34] yea. [00:34] this is like $40 but has enough space for tools, and a spot for files/etc. [00:34] With my new position I'll hopefully end up traveling to client sites... possibly including some places as far as 3.5+ hrs and travel time for training. [00:35] so wanted something more versatile [00:37] oh yeah you don't want what i have it just holds the laptop and a cord :) [00:37] that would be LOVELY but given the other crap I get to carry. [00:57] god my work is so weird. [00:57] we do managed services, right? I'm our most senior systems analyst (glorified name we use for helpdesk techs). I'm also still technically an intern. [00:57] they're moving me to template development for the software we also resell.. our senior sysadmin has been on vacation, and our jr sysadmin is useless. [00:57] so I was working 3 depts for the past week [03:38] hey binarymutant [03:38] hello [13:18] goood morning [13:18] setting up arch and have a question about the locale config step. [13:19] en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 or en_US ISO-8859-1 or both? [13:21] ah n/m found the answer [14:06] ping binarymutant, wrst [14:46] bbl [14:55] hello [14:56] late [15:15] netritious: pong [15:15] binarymutant: i appear to be late also :) [15:16] hey I got a raspberry pi coming :D [15:28] awesome binarymutant! [15:28] i know right [15:28] can't wait [15:30] off to do saturday chores binarymutant, see you later [15:31] have fun :P [16:18] I freaking hate having a police force on campus. [19:15] RagnarokAngel: I love it myself, teach them about civil liberties ;-) [21:37] cyberanger: except not. Private University with a joint security/police force. They don't have to respect any rights. [23:08] omg arch makes me feel like an idiot. I don't get it. Going to try and install in KVM one more time and if no go then screw it lol. [23:10] netritious: oh noes [23:11] I've done this twice wrst: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Install_Scripts [23:11] wow what is that? [23:12] and when I reboot the console just says "Booting harddrive...." then 100% cpu usage and no booting [23:12] wrst: supposedly the way to install arch now? idk, complete arch noob here [23:12] how do you install wrst? [23:12] nooo i wouldn't [23:13] rather, what guide did you use? are you using a different install media? [23:13] netritious: i would start here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners%27_Guide [23:13] i haven't used the new media however [23:15] netritious: i'm downliding the netinstall iso from here http://archlinux.supsec.org/iso/2012.07.15/ [23:15] that's what I'm using atm [23:15] looks like ther is no more i386 or 64 bit seperate isos anymore [23:16] unless something has changed you pretty much just boot it up and it walks you through, pretty much like a freebsd install [23:19] not with the new install media [23:19] at least not for me [23:19] netritious: i would suggest you prepare your partitions before hand if you aren't going to use the entire disk [23:19] oh noes netritious i will check it out [23:19] I did [23:20] The install goes fine. I just think the instructions are lacking. [23:20] Since it the install won't boot afterwards [23:21] those instructions you had i'm just not for sure what they were even for really [23:21] installing with the new media [23:21] that's what they are for...linked from the home page [23:21] ahh hmm well i'm going to give it a go in vbox [23:21] kk [23:21] ok i haven't really explored the new media that sounds like some crap really [23:22] but they have made some things easier so i think they reason they have to make something hard to make up for it [23:22] I'm /trying/ to give it a go, but I feel like I am trying linux and it's 1995! lol [23:22] i used some install media from years ago on my laptop recently but the net install pulled it all in [23:22] netritious: there is really no handholding with arch and when things change it takes the docs a few weeks to catch up [23:23] but if you can't do it i'm thinking not too many will be able to! [23:23] I don't see any other links for any other install media? Am I missing something? [23:23] yeah, I mean, I don't know /everything/ but I'm no noob [23:24] here i go [23:24] oh yeah this is way different [23:25] i think I see the problem....wait before you bother wrst [23:26] yeah i'm about to have to leave, but i'm certainly going to practice before i try this netritious, i liked the menu system! [23:26] kk, cya wrst. I'll either figure it out or I won't :) [23:26] will keep you posted [23:27] haha yeah this looks like a learning experience i will check in with you tonight late or tomorrow and we can compare notes, maybe we should just use gentoo??? [23:27] lol maybe [23:28] looks like an internet connection is required now also... hmm [23:28] well gotta go, good luck! [23:28] thanks! cya wrst [23:54] well I'm closer. definitely a grub issue [23:54] s/grub/grub2/ [23:55] *grub configuration issue [23:55] going to go grab some din....bbl
