[16:10] <xTEMPLARx> ARGH
[16:10] <wrst> xTEMPLARx: troubles?
[16:11] <xTEMPLARx> desktop still crashing
[16:11] <xTEMPLARx> no idea why
[16:11] <wrst> x crashing or worse?
[16:11] <xTEMPLARx> i mean it takes the whole thing down just like I'd hit CTRL-ALT-Backspace
[16:11] <wrst> ahh
[16:11] <xTEMPLARx> an instant POOF of the desktop
[16:11] <xTEMPLARx> then lightDM loads
[16:11] <wrst> that's not good!
[16:11] <xTEMPLARx> and I can log right back in
[16:11] <xTEMPLARx> no its not
[16:11] <xTEMPLARx> especially when I lose work
[16:11] <wrst> it doesn't save your work?
[16:11] <wrst> :)
[16:11] <wrst> sorry about to ask before you typed that
[16:12] <xTEMPLARx> lol
[16:12] <wrst> i must say i'm not real happy with using ubuntu and gnome shell
[16:12] <wrst> its ok but not nearly as good as arch
[16:13] <wrst> and i think i'm about to the point of dealing with the changes in arch so i can have the setup how i want it
[16:14] <xTEMPLARx> lovin' you some arch, eh?
[16:14] <xTEMPLARx> you gonna start hanging out in #arch-us-tn?
[16:14] <xTEMPLARx> :P
[16:14] <wrst> ha ha well i would like it if ubuntu would work l
[16:15] <wrst> i have been having sound issues,sound just randomly quits for no reason
[16:15] <wrst> sometimes i think ubuntu tweaks things to the point that they don't work as well as teh upstream packages
[16:15] <xTEMPLARx> strange
[16:15] <xTEMPLARx> YOU HUSH
[16:15] <xTEMPLARx> they might hear you
[16:16] <wrst> if its the truth its the truth, i can install arch all vanilla packages with my hardware, which i spec'd to work well with linux and I have absolutely no issues period
[16:16] <wrst> and that's with a hack like me setting up every aspect of the system not the professionals
[16:16] <wrst> i may give debian testing another shot
[16:17] <xTEMPLARx> lol
[16:17] <xTEMPLARx> i need to establish a stable workstation
[16:17] <xTEMPLARx> but I don't want to revert to lubuntu or the like
[16:18] <wrst> going with the mini iso isn't bad
[16:18] <wrst> but I always have some little silly issue with ubuntu it seems
[16:20] <xTEMPLARx> Reckon i've been pretty lucky up till this
[16:20] <xTEMPLARx> Heck, this machine started out with like 8.xx installed on it, and I've UPGRADED each time since
[16:20] <xTEMPLARx> so I suppose I deserve some headaches
[16:20] <wrst> i may give gnomebuntu or whatever the call it a try, but the thought of having to reinstall every six months pains me also
[16:20] <wrst> that's impressive xTEMPLARx
[16:21] <xTEMPLARx> I always lose stuff when I reinstall.  I'm going to have to go out of my way to establish a static /home partition going forward
[16:21] <xTEMPLARx> probably even a separate drive
[16:21] <wrst> i just cp my home directory before i reinstall
[16:21] <wrst> but i keep everything but the bare essentials on a networked drive at home
[16:22] <wrst> i don't trust a laptop with much
[16:22] <wrst> too easy to drop
[16:22] <wrst> destroy
[16:22] <xTEMPLARx> true this
[16:22] <xTEMPLARx> Heck, I should toy with doing an NFS directory on our filestorage box
[16:22] <xTEMPLARx> cept I don't trust that either lol
[16:23] <wrst> ha ha do you trust anyone?
[16:23] <wrst> or anything? :)
[16:28]  * xTEMPLARx looks around with squinted eyes... 
[16:28] <xTEMPLARx> why?!  what have you heard?!
[16:28]  * wrst takes taht as a no 
[16:28] <wrst> ha ha xTEMPLARx
[16:28]  * wrst goes to hunt down lunch
[16:29] <xTEMPLARx> sounds like a plan
[17:32] <wrst> chicken wings
[17:34] <xTEMPLARx> ain't nuthin but a _______ ____ on a string
[17:39] <wrst> ha ha
[17:39] <wrst> they were little wings
[17:40] <wrst> maybe they haven't been drugged up before being processed
[18:01] <xTEMPLARx> could be
[18:05] <wrst> or they were horrendously drugged one???
[18:51]  * wrst upgrades his laptop to quantal just to see what happens
[19:15] <xTEMPLARx> tic toc tic toc
[19:15] <xTEMPLARx> BOOM
[20:22] <wrst> hmm i need to check it xTEMPLARx
[20:23] <wrst> yep still installing
