lotuspsychjegood morning to all04:43
lotuspsychjemorning guys :p07:49
lotuspsychjeim wondering why mint does have so many fans...07:53
lotuspsychjeubuntu can do all mint does right07:53
EriC^^morning lotuspsychje07:54
lotuspsychjeEriC^^: hello EriC^^07:54
lotuspsychjeall ok on sundays :p07:54
EriC^^yeah :P07:54
lotuspsychjetrying to finetune hexchat colours07:54
lotuspsychjethe channels colorizes even on joins07:55
lotuspsychjei want that only speaks07:55
lotuspsychjehisto: mint has more a windows-like desktop perhaps?07:57
EriC^^nah, take it this way, mint doesn't autojoin you to #ubuntu when you get on irc07:57
histoI think all the codecs etc..07:57
lotuspsychjeah, all the mint guys autojoin here07:57
histois more of a pull for users07:58
lotuspsychjeEriC^^: but still i read mint is also very popular Os07:58
EriC^^the idea is that some people liked ubuntu but didn't like the extra stuff07:59
EriC^^so they stripped those out and made mint, i guess07:59
lotuspsychjeah i see08:00
EriC^^the self-respecting mint users won't join #ubuntu for advice08:00
EriC^^or whatever08:01
lotuspsychjeso we stuck with the autjoins :p08:01
EriC^^ubuntu is basically debian but with more stuff08:02
EriC^^then mint is basically ubuntu with less stuff08:02
lotuspsychjeless isnt always more08:03
EriC^^yeah it depends what rocks your boat i guess08:04
EriC^^some people don't want any kind of bloat08:04
EriC^^and babying too, the idea is that mint offers a more linux'y experience i guess08:04
lotuspsychjeright08:05
lotuspsychjei like ubuntu the best08:05
lotuspsychjeplayed with redhat/mandriva/opensuse in the past08:05
EriC^^yeah ubuntu is nice08:08
lotuspsychjeand unity is pretty intuitive once you get used to it08:09
lotuspsychjei hope dash gets really lightweight in the future08:10
EriC^^yeah unity is nice and looks good08:10
EriC^^and i think it's pretty practical08:10
lotuspsychjeyeah, even older users find their way tru08:10
EriC^^granted it's less practical than other desktops, like xfce has the "keep window behind others" and not just always on top08:11
lotuspsychjeyou cant click nothing wrong almost08:11
lotuspsychjetrue08:11
EriC^^and some other stuff, but you can make unity more practical, like installing the open-in-terminal extension for nautilus08:11
EriC^^that's really useful08:11
lotuspsychjethats already for the more epxerienced user ofcourse08:12
lotuspsychjei installed ubuntu for many ppl that use only GUI08:12
lotuspsychjeOerHeks: morning, join tha club!08:13
OerHeksMorning :-)08:14
lotuspsychjeOerHeks: you know howto not colorize channels on joins/parts08:14
lotuspsychjeOerHeks: i want only channel tabs light up, when talking08:14
OerHeksthose colours are ugly indeed, no, those settings are poor :-(08:14
lotuspsychjeOerHeks: i have to hide joins/parts to get rid of it then?08:15
OerHeksyes, i guess so08:15
EriC^^lotuspsychje: in xchat there's settings > preferences > colors08:15
EriC^^i guess it's the New data one08:15
lotuspsychjeEriC^^: i went to the dark side remember :p08:15
lotuspsychjehex08:15
EriC^^it has the same color as what lights up on joins/parts/etc.08:15
EriC^^lotuspsychje: should be similar, check it out08:15
lotuspsychjeim gonna hide joins/parts its ok08:18
OerHeksthere is a HCT file with old values https://github.com/hexchat/hexchat/issues/68208:18
OerHekscarefull, it overrides that standard files...08:19
lotuspsychjei like the hex colors08:21
lotuspsychjebut just dont wanna click a tab, anytime a user joins08:21
lotuspsychjeso ill disable it for the largest channels its ok08:21
