Unit193Metro > "Windows 8 style UI!"00:00
binarymutantnot metro anymore00:04
Unit193Nope.00:05
binarymutanttom merritt had a good name for it: "M"00:06
chris4585I think people will still call it metro regardless00:19
chris4585binarymutant, why using the nouveau driver? :o00:19
binarymutantchris4585, bc nvidia doesn't really support my chip anymore00:34
chris4585oh, that sucks :/00:35
binarymutantI couldn't restart, shutdown, or switch consoles while using the nvidia driver. and it made me mad00:35
chris4585yeah that doesn't sound good at all00:35
binarymutantyeah :/00:35
binarymutantnouveau rocks, but get bad fps on urbanterror00:36
binarymutanttech reporters are so weird: http://www.technologyreview.com/news/428652/a-computer-infection-that-can-never-be-cured/00:37
* wesleystout works on windows... boo00:52
binarymutantlol00:54
binarymutanthey pianobar works in debian01:02
* wesleystout remembered to use puttty this time01:04
wesleystout*screen01:04
Unit193Good! Screen is handy.01:05
binarymutantdvtm + dtach is my new shindig01:05
binarymutantmore fun than screen :D01:06
wesleystoutwell binarymutant i started to download quassel but it has to be installed on windows now so thought i woudl just use putty while i work on this stinkin mess01:06
wesleystoutsomeone paid for some "protection" PC Tools and it is nearing expiration and they can't connect to the internet with it01:07
wesleystoutit blocks everything01:07
binarymutantgood protection lol01:07
Unit193Yep, sure is.01:07
wesleystouti guess so, no chance of getting anything if you can't connect01:07
wesleystoutsince they paid for the crap i hate to remove it but disabling it and installing the free options01:08
binarymutantlol yeah01:08
* wesleystout reboots... gotta be running windows01:08
Unit193http://www.av-comparatives.org/images/docs/avc_prot_2012a_en.pdf Just released Real World Protection.01:09
binarymutantit's still going to be reactionary01:10
binarymutantI think the best protection would be to run linux :P01:11
wesleystoutman i forget that when you get the desktop in windows its still not ready, my machine at work running xp and on an ssd is instantly ready almost like my linux but this one is not01:13
binarymutantis it like that old 2 second boot hack? Where they skipped runlevels and booted into Xorg before the networking and audio and stuff were turned on?01:15
wesleystoutbinarymutant: on the ssd xp boots about as fast as you would imagine especially on old hardware01:17
wesleystoutbut its still not as fast as arch on my laptop without an ssd01:18
binarymutantoh01:18
Unit193XP isn't so bad, it's the newer ones that aren't that great.01:18
binarymutantthat's cuz arch doesn't run any daemons01:18
wesleystouti want an ssd bad in my laptop01:18
binarymutantis ssd really fast?01:18
binarymutant<-- 10 years behind01:18
wesleystoutbinarymutant: i have it running a few of course, gdm being the hog of the bunch and a bunch of them backgrounded01:18
wesleystoutbinarymutant: ssd is really fast01:18
binarymutantah I want01:18
wesleystoutwhen i can get say a 320GB in the under 200 buck range i will go for it but its a while it looks like before that will be happening01:19
binarymutantyeah I'll wait until people throw them into the garbage :D01:20
wesleystoutwell i am done with this project pending approval to remove their "virus"01:20
binarymutant<- just got sata drives this year01:20
wesleystoutsee everyone in a few01:20
binarymutantlater01:20
* wrst is back in the world of linux02:50
wrstanyone using chromium?02:52
binarymutantI was using google-chrome02:58
wrstbinarymutant: chromium has started doing something cool for me that chrome doesn't02:58
wrsthttps://dl.dropbox.com/u/2959906/chromiumfullscreen.png02:58
wrsthttps://dl.dropbox.com/u/2959906/chromium.png02:59
wrstthat first one is maximized hides the window buttons and adds to your usable space i really like that02:59
wrstepiphany does that but plugins are about impossible to get working in it02:59
binarymutantwrst, I wouldn't know since I don't have window buttons :P03:00
wrstoh yeah you are one of THOSE people :P03:01
binarymutantlol yes03:01
wrsti don't know why google chrome doesn't do that and maybe i changed a setting that I can't now find :)03:03
binarymutantf11?03:03
chris4585wrst, I use chromium03:03
chris4585wrst, that looks pretty neat like that03:04
wrstnope f11 goes full screen03:04
chris4585let me switch to gnome to see if I get that effect..03:04
wrstchris4585: does yours do what mine does with that first screenshot i posted?03:04
wrsti can't find anyting googlin'03:05
wrstbut i like it03:05
wrstthanks chris458503:05
wrstthanks chris458503:06
chris4585apparently gnome-shell --replace just goes to gdm03:07
chris4585in openbox anyway..03:07
chris4585wrst, in the settings "use system title bar and boarder" enables that in gnome03:08
chris4585that is a nice feature03:08
wrstyes it is and chris4585 i think that came in a recent update because unchecked it has the ugly chrome buttons but still doesn't have a title bar anyway still very nice03:10
* wrst will repeat when he returns :)03:10
binarymutantif you like that you should try it with everything ;D03:10
binarymutantwindow decorations just get in the way03:10
wrsti like it when maximized i'm not ready for that all the time yet :)03:10
wrstyes it is and chris4585 i think that came in a recent update because unchecked it has the ugly chrome buttons but still doesn't have a title bar anyway still very nice03:12
chris4585I hope my computer decides to stop doing stupid things..03:13
wrstit won't be fun if it does that :)03:13
binarymutantchris4585, me too :/03:13
chris4585yeah I wouldn't have noticed it I guess, in openbox I leave that option unchecked03:14
wrstchris4585: just updated google chrome and it does the same now03:14
wrsti know ... why do i have them both installed, i really dont know03:14
chris4585ah cool, I honestly don't use google chrome that much03:14
binarymutantI like google chrome's auto translate addon03:16
chris4585wrst, lol I did have them installed but uninstalled google chrome because it had the smurf color thing going on with flash03:16
chris4585chromium has the option to translate pages binarymutant03:16
binarymutanton the fly? or do you have to press a button?03:16
wrsti have made my discovery so think i will go to bed see you guys later03:17
chris4585there is a popup option at the top usually to translate this page or something similar to that03:17
binarymutant....I think I've had this convo03:17
binarymutantlater wrst03:17
chris4585wrst, imgur uploaded in the wrong order so from the bottom up http://imgur.com/a/R60qm03:17
binarymutantchrome does it on the fly, no button needed03:17
binarymutantit's really cool03:17
chris4585wait, imgur I think just uploaded an image twice?03:18
chris4585actually three times?03:19
binarymutantthey've been having some server probs03:19
chris4585yeah okay.. this time imgur uploaded all 4 images right.. http://imgur.com/a/qciEi#303:21
chris4585I love imgur but man do they need to update their hardware or something03:22
chris4585being on gnome feels slightly weird, but I guess I'll stay on it tonight03:34
chris4585I am genuinely surprised gnome has some nice fading effects now03:46
chris4585with windows03:46
binarymutantcomposite's been around for ages though04:06
binarymutantberyl04:06
binarymutantsince 200604:07
binarymutantI wish there was a better way to scrape tv shows in xbmc, some of my shows don't show up04:10
binarymutantspecifically foreign ones04:11
* orias uses .nfo's05:09
chris4585I know, but that is the first time I've notice gnome doing this without compiz05:38
chris4585lol in 12.10 the "Shutdown" is now "Switch Off..."06:36
chris4585for some reason "Restart..." and "Logout..." all have the dots except Suspend06:36
chris4585I just find that odd06:36
Svpernova09hibernate isn't shown by default. But it's still availiable via the command06:43
Svpernova09I found that a bit odd06:44
chris4585strange06:45
binarymutantomg I hope fsck doesn't destroy any of my data :/19:04
binarymutantdisk failure is the new scurvy  :(   :'(   fml20:05

chris4585o_O20:46
vychuneouch20:46
vychunethat f***ed up20:46
vychunebinarymutant: it's forwarded but still not going20:47
binarymutantthen i'd check the config20:49
vychuneConnection attempt failed with "ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server" is what im getting from the outside ip but not the inside ip20:54
binarymutantto me it sounds like either the port's not forward or the permissions aren't set right20:55
binarymutantpost up your config minus any sensitive info20:56
vychunehttp://pastebin.com/FLTfVrwJ21:00

binarymutantif they don't do journaling then I don't want them22:17
