[07:21] hi guys [07:21] hi Kil [07:26] morning [07:38] morning all of ya [07:40] Kilos: morning bro [07:41] talking about wayland guys [07:41] hi somaunn [07:41] what will it really bring to the linux distro world [07:44] what is wayland [07:46] Wayland. Wayland is intended as a simpler replacement for X, easier to develop and maintain. GNOME and KDE are expected to be ported to it. [07:46] source: wayland.freedesktop.org [07:50] thats too much for me to think about [07:51] i read up on elementary os a bit and it could be interesting to try [07:51] ive never seen osx so have no idea what it looks like [07:52] someone said here months ago we should try it, being very fast is what will make me even consider [07:54] Elementary OS is a good distro to use [07:55] was buggy the time i tried it but i guess it's now more mature but becareful i also feel like there is no real support or community thing like we see for Debian, Fedora, Ubuntu etc. [07:59] how long ago did you try it? [08:00] if its ubuntu based then one should be able to fix it without their support [08:00] someone here uses it [08:03] i used the days i was in S.A [08:04] discover Elementary OS on a DVD found Linux Mag bought in Alberton Mall [08:04] really enjoyed it [08:07] ah ill try it sometime, will download the iso when im awake after midnight one day [08:07] hehe [08:11] I propose you first read about Enlightment prior to that https://www.enlightenment.org/?p=about/e17 [08:11] ty will do [08:13] liked it those days but now I'm Plasma from blood to Desktop [08:13] ##All human should use Plasma because it's biologically part of them## [08:14] what has that to do with elementary os? [08:15] its another distro and you need to compile stuff [08:15] i cant compile, i want a working system [08:15] you will get it okay [08:16] thats why i will try something based on ubuntu or maybe debian but no other things [08:16] just install use and crash something, it's the way IT stuffs worx and the way the discover everything we know [08:17] no man my kde here dont crash, i have to zero the drive to mess it up [08:17] do you know the drive zero command [08:18] you can break lots of drives with it but then they are seen as brand new drives and your motherboard has to write a new mbr in [08:19] drive zero ??? [08:19] nope [08:19] lemme find it for you [08:20] K [08:20] very handy for drives that have got corrupted by virusses or malware [08:20] i have got a few scrap drives working again after using it [08:21] dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=512 count=1 [08:21] you have to use sudo [08:24] do you throw away drives that cant boot? [08:25] hiya gremble [08:25] Good morning Kilos [08:26] How're you this fine day? [08:27] Kilos: Ty i never throw away drives i use a linux distro that does this kind of thing [wipe, drive zero, etc...] and get them back to life [08:27] ah [08:28] im good ty gremble [09:38] i might crash me here sometime, gonna tell testdisk write [09:38] hehe [10:07] so guys what is the tool to use to see what is using how much of your resources [10:10] htop [10:10] or top, but htop is like the upgraded version [10:14] ty sir === Arcanum_za is now known as Trixar_za [10:20] no [10:20] np* [11:26] hmm... ping got him [14:08] sjoe [14:09] Hmm?
