| wrst | thanks Unit193 they had a much better link | 16:37 |
| * Unit193 isn't a big person. :P | 16:40 | |
| Unit193 | Heh, sure. | 16:40 |
| wrst | ha ha well big in influence Unit193 how is that | 16:46 |
| Unit193 | Still nope. :D | 17:05 |
| * Unit193 just randomly got voiced by a mod, and hasn't been kicked yet. | 17:06 | |

| wrst | ha ha Unit193 | 18:48 |
| Unit193 | wrst: No, I've been kicked before, but not in a bad way! I've been kicked from #kubuntu-offtopic, #lubuntu-offtopic, and I *think* #xubuntu-offtopic... :P | 19:53 |
| Unit193 | (IS expects the forums to be back up on Monday.) | 19:56 |
| Unit193 | fastforward: Howdy. | 20:51 |
| fastforward | Hey, how's it going? | 20:54 |
| Unit193 | Alive, and have coffee. You? | 20:57 |
| fastforward | No coffee today. Some sweet tea, but that's about it. | 21:10 |
| fastforward | Trying to cut back on caffeine... | 21:11 |
| Unit193 | Ah, bummer. Tea is good though. | 21:12 |
| Unit193 | (May not be the best before bed. >_> ) | 21:12 |
| wrst | howdy fastforward | 21:12 |
| fastforward | Nope. I try not to drink any caffeine past 4 or 5... I can't sleep otherwise. | 21:12 |
| fastforward | Hi, wrst | 21:13 |
| fastforward | Is there usually someone in this room? I'm new to the group. | 21:13 |
| Unit193 | I'm normally here, but don't always "speak" | 21:13 |
| wrst | fastforward: yes usually a little slow on the weekends | 21:14 |
| wrst | lots of us lurkers also :) | 21:14 |
| fastforward | Cool. | 21:14 |
| fastforward | Well that's a little creepy... :D | 21:14 |
| wrst | fastforward: you an Ubuntu user? | 21:14 |
| wrst | fastforward: Unit193 and I resemble that remark :P | 21:15 |
| fastforward | Yes, have been using it since 10.04. Went full time at 12.04, using it at work and home. | 21:15 |
| wrst | cool fastforward | 21:16 |
| wrst | the LTS releases are solid especially 10.04 | 21:16 |
| fastforward | Yeah, I noticed over the years that upgrading away from an LTS wasn't always the smoothest transition. I re-installed 12.04 at work, replacing 13.04 and it's been much less frustrating to use. | 21:17 |
| fastforward | I did try Mint 15 w/ Cinnamon. It was slick, but honestly, I missed Unity. (Don't hurt me for that remark!) | 21:18 |
| Unit193 | Me? Creepy? Nooooo, never! :P | 21:18 |
| * Unit193 uses 13.04, and hears Unity is better with newer releases. :P | 21:18 | |
| fastforward | I had issues with 13.04, but it could have been my messing around with it that jacked it all up! | 21:19 |
| Unit193 | And, of course use whatever release you like best. :) | 21:20 |
| fastforward | I'm in the Nashville area, btw. What about y'all? | 21:20 |
| Unit193 | I'm a little more North, and wrst is poked to answer too! ;P | 21:21 |
| wrst | fastforward: cookeville | 21:23 |
| fastforward | Cookeville? I'm sorry... | 21:23 |
| fastforward | :) | 21:23 |
| wrst | I was thinking the same about Nashville :) | 21:24 |
| fastforward | Ha! I grew up in McMinnville and went to school at TTU for a little while. | 21:25 |
| fastforward | So I know the area a bit. | 21:26 |
| wrst | ha ha | 21:27 |
| fastforward | I'm happy I found the group. I don't know anyone who really uses Linux around here. | 21:28 |
| wrst | cool fastforward I'm not as much of an Ubuntu user as I used to be but support it a lot with my family | 21:46 |
| Unit193 | (For now. ;) ) | 21:46 |
| Unit193 | I use Xubuntu. | 21:46 |
| wrst | I think xububtu is probably the best one right now if mir doesn't blow it up for everyone | 21:47 |
| fastforward | I think I'm going to try Xubuntu out soon on an old laptop. I loaded Arch on it a couple weekends ago, but I've gotten stuck trying to install a DE. | 21:52 |
| Unit193 | Xubuntu isn't Unity, that's for sure. Some think it's like Gnome2, but I did not like Gnome2. :P | 21:54 |
| Unit193 | (Xubuntu isn't made for old desktops, but works pretty well on some.) | 21:54 |
| fastforward | Yeah, I was looking for a lighter distro to install, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Peppermint, etc. Just haven't gotten around to trying them yet. | 21:56 |
| fastforward | Trying to install the Android SDK now and root and flash my Nexus 7 with CyanogenMod. | 21:56 |
| Unit193 | AntiX is pretty nice and Debian based, Flux by default. | 21:57 |
| chris4585 | just my personal preference, any distro or remake with a ubuntu base I don't really call light lol | 21:57 |
| Unit193 | Kind of, yeah, but Lubuntu isn't so bad. | 21:57 |
| fastforward | :) | 21:57 |
| chris4585 | oh definitely | 21:57 |
| fastforward | I've recently read about a few others, not Ubuntu based, that were lighter. | 21:58 |
| Unit193 | (Hence why I said AntiX.) | 21:58 |
| Unit193 | I have SliTaz in my PXE setup! \o/ | 21:58 |
| chris4585 | slitaz is nice | 21:58 |
| fastforward | Hadn't heard of AntiX | 21:58 |
| fastforward | I was also considering CrunchBang. Any experience with it? | 22:07 |
| wrst | fastforward: you said arch??? :) | 22:09 |
| wrst | not that I like that sort of thing ;) | 22:16 |
| fastforward | Yes, I installed arch on a 7 year old laptop a couple weekends ago. | 22:26 |
| fastforward | It's cool idea. I just don't know that I want to sit there and install every little thing. | 22:27 |
| wrst | arch is my desktop os of choice, I install debian on servers, and ubuntu on everyone else's machines (for the time being depending on how crazy they go) | 22:27 |
| wrst | fastforward: I can get it going now with a desktop gui in around 30 minutes if my internet is working as it should | 22:27 |
| wrst | then "theoretically" you shouldn't have to do it again | 22:28 |
| wrst | I usually go at least a year before I blow it up for the fun of it | 22:28 |
| fastforward | I got stuck installing the DE, didn't have the time to sort it out. | 22:28 |
| wrst | did you install your video drivers? that's usually the only hiccup | 22:29 |
| fastforward | I believe so. I was trying out Enlightenment and I messed up the configuration. I got to the login screen, but it wouldn't load the gui because I saved something incorrectly, file path or something. I've slept since then and can hardly remember. | 22:30 |
| fastforward | :) | 22:30 |
| wrst | oh yeah well E is its on little beast in itself :) | 22:31 |
| wrst | I see the appeal just not for me I use boring ol' gnome | 22:32 |
| fastforward | It looked nice. Thought I would try it. What desktop do you use w/ Arch? | 22:33 |
| pirate | smokin smokin tree | 22:33 |
| wrst | fastforward: gnome | 22:34 |
| wrst | as crazy as they have made it I still like it | 22:34 |
| fastforward | 2 or 3? | 22:34 |
| wrst | 3 | 22:35 |
| wrst | the extensions really help | 22:36 |
| cyberanger | Personally I'm an openbox fan | 22:50 |
| fastforward | OpenBox is cool. I tried out #! in VirtualBox and it's pretty awesome. | 22:53 |
| wrst | yeah fastforward some people like awesome also ;) | 22:56 |
| Unit193 | And sawfish. | 22:57 |
| Unit193 | ...And ratpoison. | 22:58 |
| cyberanger | I liked #! better in the older releases (9.04 comes to mind) | 22:59 |
| cyberanger | my build is inspired by those years | 23:00 |
| cyberanger | but they beat unity IMHO | 23:00 |
| cyberanger | fastforward: my expirence with it has been great, but what makes openbox great is it's customizability | 23:02 |
| cyberanger | fastforward: are you a work user, home user or both? (for linux) | 23:05 |
| fastforward | I use it for both. I use Win7 and OSX some too, but mostly I'm on Ubuntu 12.04 | 23:06 |
| cyberanger | chris4585: agreed, but it feels like for somebody who's just given a disc, lubuntu and xubuntu is a good balance on lightweight and mediumweight, respectively, while still being easy for them, what is it you run nowadays | 23:07 |
| cyberanger | fastforward: webdev I'm guessing? | 23:07 |
| fastforward | cyberranger: No, QA for a web dev company. Close. :) | 23:08 |
| fastforward | (can't spell...) | 23:08 |
| fastforward | :) | 23:08 |
| cyberanger | I got the jist, to me that's an improvement | 23:08 |
| cyberanger | less customer hassles, same for design headaches | 23:09 |
| fastforward | I have some security apps that require Win7. Otherwise, I would drop Windows completely. | 23:09 |
| fastforward | Yup. :) | 23:09 |
| * cyberanger bites his tounge, trying to hold back a comment about oxymorons | 23:10 | |
| cyberanger | no QA for IE | 23:10 |
| cyberanger | ? | 23:10 |
| fastforward | We use BrowserStack and MS also free VMs for IE. | 23:11 |
| cyberanger | ah, that works | 23:11 |
| cyberanger | I've done sysadmin work, about to head to college again, not sure I want to keep on that path | 23:12 |
| cyberanger | it's not about dislike, just thinking I may like something else more | 23:12 |
| fastforward | I'm accidental QA, I was working towards sysadmin and life happened. :) | 23:12 |
| fastforward | Are you looking to get out of IT completely? | 23:13 |
| fastforward | Or just something different in tech? | 23:13 |
| cyberanger | possibly, I'm going back as undeclared to help decide | 23:13 |
| chris4585 | cyberanger, oh definitely | 23:14 |
| cyberanger | broadcast engineer isn't too different, it's one of the things on my radar | 23:14 |
| chris4585 | cyberanger, I'm currently running latest mint with cinnamon | 23:14 |
| fastforward | cyberanger: Are you near Nashville? | 23:14 |
| cyberanger | chris4585: nice, nice | 23:15 |
| cyberanger | fastforward: athens, tn, for a few more days at least | 23:15 |
| cyberanger | (college includes a move, guess this is news in this channel come to think of it) | 23:16 |
| fastforward | It was nice talking and meeting everyone. About to go meet the fam for dinner. | 23:20 |
| wrst | have fun fastforward, hang around anytime | 23:22 |
| cyberanger | see ya fastforward | 23:22 |
