| theblazehen | hi all | 14:18 |
| Cantide | hello '-'/ | 14:19 |
| theblazehen | Just installed fbterm, oh-my-zsh and the agnoste zsh theme :) | 14:19 |
| theblazehen | really need to change my fbterm font | 14:20 |
| Cantide | >_> | 14:20 |
| theblazehen | you use any of these thnigs? | 14:21 |
| * Squirm looks around | 14:21 | |
| theblazehen | Squirm: why? | 14:21 |
| Squirm | cause ya'll boring | 14:21 |
| * Squirm leaves | 14:21 | |
| theblazehen | ok :( | 14:21 |
| Squirm | :P | 14:22 |
| theblazehen | now if only the terminal had notifications... | 14:23 |
| * Cantide doesn't use any of them | 14:23 | |
| Cantide | theblazehen, can you screenshot it? | 14:23 |
| theblazehen | sure. | 14:23 |
| theblazehen | http://imgur.com/LyhFOAq | 14:27 |
| theblazehen | lCantide: like it? | 14:30 |
| theblazehen | Cantide: like it? | 14:30 |
| Cantide | i got a 404 :< | 14:31 |
| Cantide | " If you're looking for an image, then it's probably been deleted or may not have existed at all. Bummer! " | 14:31 |
| theblazehen | Musta typed it wrong... | 14:31 |
| Cantide | was i too slow? | 14:31 |
| theblazehen | nope | 14:31 |
| theblazehen | http://imgur.com/LyhF0Aq | 14:32 |
| theblazehen | try that one | 14:32 |
| theblazehen | think i mixed up 0 and O | 14:32 |
| Cantide | wow | 14:33 |
| Cantide | that looks very minimalistic :) | 14:33 |
| Cantide | must be great for memory usage :) | 14:33 |
| theblazehen | yea :) thanks | 14:39 |
| Cantide | i like my gui too much :< | 14:40 |
| Cantide | but i like keyboard shortcuts, too :) | 14:40 |
| theblazehen | Cantide: which DE do you use? | 14:41 |
| theblazehen | I thinking of using openbox for GUI stuff. | 14:41 |
| Cantide | Unity | 14:41 |
| Cantide | i've grown to like it | 14:41 |
| theblazehen | Yea... I tried ubuntu touch and liked it. If i had a fatster pc I would also use it think | 14:42 |
| Cantide | i hated it at first | 14:42 |
| Cantide | because of the extra clicks needed to get things done | 14:42 |
| Cantide | but with the keyboard it's nice | 14:42 |
| Cantide | and there are cool things like the hud | 14:43 |
| theblazehen | I feel the same. At least you can use the keyboard | 14:43 |
| Cantide | and dash | 14:43 |
| theblazehen | yea | 14:43 |
| theblazehen | yea | 14:43 |
| theblazehen | don't really like nautilus though. | 14:43 |
| theblazehen | Wish there were packages for arch linux | 14:43 |
| Cantide | hehe | 14:44 |
| Cantide | the only problem i have with nautilus is that it's a bit heavy and slow | 14:45 |
| Cantide | other than that i like it | 14:45 |
| theblazehen | Can't give up on the rolling release ... :( | 14:45 |
| theblazehen | Cantide: Ever try thunar ? | 14:45 |
| Cantide | i'm glad they didn't stick with current nautilus | 14:45 |
| Cantide | yeah, but i don't like the look of thunar | 14:45 |
| Cantide | it doesn't match the rest of the OS | 14:45 |
| theblazehen | ok.Whatdo you mean by current nautilus ? | 14:45 |
| Cantide | umm | 14:46 |
| Cantide | i forget the version numbers | 14:46 |
| Cantide | but recently nautilus stripped out a lot of functionality | 14:46 |
| theblazehen | ok | 14:46 |
| Cantide | like F3 for split view | 14:46 |
| Cantide | and tree view | 14:46 |
| theblazehen | ok :) | 14:46 |
| Cantide | canonical decided to fork the previous version (before these things were removed) | 14:46 |
| theblazehen | tree view is nice. | 14:47 |
| Cantide | yeah, i like it, too | 14:47 |
| Cantide | i think Nautilus is aiming for a more touch-friendly interface | 14:47 |
| theblazehen | thought mint forked it? | 14:47 |
| Cantide | but grrr.. i like my desktop as a desktop | 14:47 |
| Cantide | hmm | 14:47 |
| Cantide | they could have, too | 14:47 |
| theblazehen | Yea. on arch it has no window decoration | 14:47 |
| theblazehen | Cantide: same | 14:47 |
| Cantide | i was tempted by Arch | 14:48 |
| Cantide | but i like the direction that Ubuntu is taking | 14:48 |
| Cantide | so i want to stick with it | 14:48 |
| theblazehen | Cantide: You should really try it out, even in a VM | 14:49 |
| theblazehen | Cantide: which direction ? | 14:49 |
| theblazehen | I prefer the arch Way | 14:49 |
| Cantide | Gir + ubuntu touch + convergence | 14:49 |
| Cantide | Ubuntu may have rolling releases between LTS versions | 14:49 |
| Cantide | which i think is the best of both worlds | 14:50 |
| theblazehen | Oh... I prefer the simplicity of arch | 14:50 |
| Cantide | oh? | 14:50 |
| Cantide | i thought Arch was a bit difficult to set up | 14:50 |
| Cantide | but i haven't tried it :p | 14:50 |
| theblazehen | Cantide: Yea, might end up quite good | 14:50 |
| Cantide | going to watch the cricket on TV | 14:50 |
| Cantide | i think we just took another wicket | 14:50 |
| theblazehen | Cantide: It is not difficult as much as requiring you to type lots | 14:50 |
| Cantide | bbl :) | 14:50 |
| theblazehen | ok | 14:50 |
| Cantide | ah | 14:50 |
| theblazehen | bye :) | 14:50 |
| Cantide | well, i'm sure with a good guide such as the wiki it will be easier :) | 14:51 |
| theblazehen | Yea :) even my newbie to linux set it up. The day after I told him about linux | 14:51 |
| theblazehen | friend that is a newbie * | 14:51 |
| Cantide | :) | 14:52 |

| theblazehen | do you by any chance use fbterm? | 15:10 |
| Kilos | in synaptic all the other stuff dont show | 15:11 |
| theblazehen | It is a fork of gnome2 | 15:11 |
| Kilos | nope whats that? | 15:11 |
| Kilos | yes fork of gnome2 | 15:11 |
| theblazehen | terminal for framebuffer. No need for Xorg | 15:11 |
| Kilos | peeps that didnt wanna go unity | 15:11 |
| theblazehen | Kilos: apparently the gnome team don't want them using the old names | 15:12 |
| theblazehen | ok | 15:12 |
| Kilos | yeah its changed lots and i think actually gone back a bit. gnome2 was kiff | 15:12 |
| theblazehen | yea | 15:13 |
| Kilos | unity is like olives and whiskey, you gotta force yourself to get used to it | 15:13 |
| Kilos | hehe | 15:13 |
| theblazehen | lol. Why not just use alternative DE? have a look at fuduntu | 15:14 |
| Kilos | ive tried kde which i enjoy and xfce which isnt too hot and lubuntu which i fixed with mate | 15:15 |
| theblazehen | ok | 15:15 |
| Kilos | unity and kde are good now | 15:15 |
| theblazehen | fuduntu is mate distro. Ever try cinnamon? | 15:15 |
| theblazehen | yea | 15:15 |
| Kilos | but stupid unity 12.04 wont see 3g modem so i gave up on it | 15:16 |
| Kilos | nope | 15:16 |
| theblazehen | Kilos: and 12.10 does right? | 15:16 |
| Kilos | yeah | 15:16 |
| theblazehen | ever think of trying another modem? | 15:16 |

| theblazehen | ohh... | 15:17 |
| Kilos | will try when my son comes to visit maybe | 15:17 |
| theblazehen | ok | 15:17 |
| Kilos | so installs dont use much bandwidth | 15:17 |
| theblazehen | yea | 15:17 |
| Kilos | was planning on staying 12.04 for the full 5 years | 15:18 |
| theblazehen | really? end of LTS right? | 15:18 |
| Kilos | yeah | 15:18 |
| theblazehen | ok | 15:18 |
| Kilos | i still have 10.10 maverick running on 2 drives on another pc as well | 15:19 |
| theblazehen | ok | 15:19 |
| Kilos | i like the option of right click format of usb disks and the easy rename while formatting | 15:19 |
| theblazehen | yea | 15:20 |
| Kilos | dunno why they dropped that | 15:20 |
| theblazehen | ok | 15:20 |
| Kilos | disk utility isnt the answer | 15:20 |

| theblazehen | hi magespawn | 16:00 |
| Kilos | hey magespawn | 16:02 |
| magespawn | i will have to have a look at paln9 | 16:02 |

| magespawn | or quadcopters | 16:03 |
| Kilos | poor Squirmy has collapsed on the bed methinks | 16:03 |
| magespawn | happy st patricks day | 16:04 |
| theblazehen | hi all | 16:41 |
| Kilos | where you went? | 16:48 |
| Kilos | oh im not seeing join/parts | 16:50 |
| * Kilos wonders why | 16:52 | |
| superfly | 8 cores is 5 more than my PC has... | 16:54 |
| Kilos | whew what wants so many superfly ? | 16:54 |
| Kilos | thats like xboxes | 16:54 |
| superfly | Kilos: the new Samsung Galaxy S4 phone | 16:55 |
| superfly | it actually has 2 quad-core processors | 16:55 |
| Kilos | whew fones are advancing too fast | 16:55 |
| superfly | and ARM7 and an ARM15 | 16:55 |
| Kilos | all in a little fone? | 16:55 |
| superfly | it's Samsung, they were already ahead of Apple with the S3, and they're proving that they are ahead of the game with the S4 | 16:55 |
| Kilos | pcs dropping behind | 16:56 |
| superfly | PCs dropped behind about a year ago | 16:56 |
| superfly | my phone pretty much has better specs than my PC | 16:57 |
| Kilos | i wonder if one can use 2 motherboards in one pc | 16:57 |
| Kilos | pity they so small hey? | 16:57 |
| Kilos | imaging a pc with that performance | 16:58 |
| superfly | Kilos: no, you don't use 2 motherboards in 1 pc, you use a motherboard built to take more than one processor | 17:01 |
| Kilos | ah ty | 17:01 |
| Kilos | family well superfly ? | 17:02 |
| superfly | Kilos: and the fact is that a multicore processor is much faster than multiple single core processors | 17:02 |
| superfly | the cores can communicate internally whereas the multiple processors have to communicate with each other via the motherboard | 17:02 |
| superfly | yeah | 17:02 |
| superfly | anyway, talking of family, need to get back to them | 17:03 |
| bmg505 | hello | 17:31 |
| bmg505 | how the hell do I set locale in 12.04 to have a dot instead of this brain dead comma? | 17:31 |
| Kilos | hi bmg505 | 17:41 |
| bmg505 | lo | 17:42 |
| bmg505 | it feels like 12.04 is a step closer to being a perfect emulation of loosedoze | 17:42 |
| Kilos | ai! | 17:43 |
| Kilos | unity? | 17:43 |
| bmg505 | yea ffs and I keep getting crash notifications | 17:43 |
| Kilos | what does it say crashed? | 17:43 |
| Kilos | magespawn: you the unity man today | 17:44 |
| Kilos | bmg505: when it gives the notifications does it wanna send error reports too | 17:45 |
| magespawn | i am? don't really use it on my personal machines | 17:45 |
| magespawn | https://www.eff.org/pages/tor-and-https something to think about | 17:45 |
| Kilos | lol i tried. dunno who here is using unity | 17:45 |
| Kilos | im on kde | 17:46 |
| magespawn | i think Squirm and Cantide use it | 17:46 |
| bmg505 | my slackware boxen runs kde, and it beats the shit out of this gnome crap | 17:47 |
| Kilos | Squirm: is on mint mate i think | 17:47 |
| Kilos | maybe maiatoday | 17:48 |
| magespawn | bmg505: maybe have a look here http://askubuntu.com/questions/21316/how-can-i-customize-a-system-locale | 17:49 |
| magespawn | do not know the answer off hand myself | 17:49 |
| bmg505 | I don't know who had the brain wave to change it to a freaking , | 17:50 |
| magespawn | seems some people prefer it that way, or so it seems, so 'they' decided to set it as a default | 17:52 |
| superfly | a comma is the SA standard, but the world operates on US, so a dot is used more often (even SA) for practical reasons | 18:35 |
| Kilos | Maaz: announce Meeting tomorrow night peeps. try be here please. | 18:52 |
| Maaz | Announcement from Kilos! Meeting tomorrow night peeps. try be here please | 18:52 |
