[02:57] <Bashing-om> Looks like my ISP has problems. I keep loosing/regaining internet connectivity . Bear with it . Hope it gets straightened out soon !
[03:01] <daftykins> :(
[03:01] <daftykins> we can't be without our Bashing-om
[04:43] <lotuspsychje> good morning to all
[07:49] <lotuspsychje> morning guys :p
[07:53] <lotuspsychje> im wondering why mint does have so many fans...
[07:53] <lotuspsychje> ubuntu can do all mint does right
[07:54] <EriC^^> morning lotuspsychje
[07:54] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: hello EriC^^
[07:54] <lotuspsychje> all ok on sundays :p
[07:54] <EriC^^> yeah :P
[07:54] <lotuspsychje> trying to finetune hexchat colours
[07:55] <lotuspsychje> the channels colorizes even on joins
[07:55] <lotuspsychje> i want that only speaks
[07:57] <lotuspsychje> histo: 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 irc
[07:57] <histo> I think all the codecs etc..
[07:57] <lotuspsychje> ah, all the mint guys autojoin here
[07:58] <histo> is more of a pull for users
[07:58] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: but still i read mint is also very popular Os
[07:59] <EriC^^> the idea is that some people liked ubuntu but didn't like the extra stuff
[07:59] <EriC^^> so they stripped those out and made mint, i guess
[08:00] <lotuspsychje> ah i see
[08:00] <EriC^^> the self-respecting mint users won't join #ubuntu for advice
[08:01] <EriC^^> or whatever
[08:01] <lotuspsychje> so we stuck with the autjoins :p
[08:02] <EriC^^> ubuntu is basically debian but with more stuff
[08:02] <EriC^^> then mint is basically ubuntu with less stuff
[08:03] <lotuspsychje> less isnt always more
[08:04] <EriC^^> yeah it depends what rocks your boat i guess
[08:04] <EriC^^> some people don't want any kind of bloat
[08:04] <EriC^^> and babying too, the idea is that mint offers a more linux'y experience i guess
[08:05] <lotuspsychje> right
[08:05] <lotuspsychje> i like ubuntu the best
[08:05] <lotuspsychje> played with redhat/mandriva/opensuse in the past
[08:08] <EriC^^> yeah ubuntu is nice
[08:09] <lotuspsychje> and unity is pretty intuitive once you get used to it
[08:10] <lotuspsychje> i hope dash gets really lightweight in the future
[08:10] <EriC^^> yeah unity is nice and looks good
[08:10] <EriC^^> and i think it's pretty practical
[08:10] <lotuspsychje> yeah, even older users find their way tru
[08:11] <EriC^^> granted it's less practical than other desktops, like xfce has the "keep window behind others" and not just always on top
[08:11] <lotuspsychje> you cant click nothing wrong almost
[08:11] <lotuspsychje> true
[08:11] <EriC^^> and some other stuff, but you can make unity more practical, like installing the open-in-terminal extension for nautilus
[08:11] <EriC^^> that's really useful
[08:12] <lotuspsychje> thats already for the more epxerienced user ofcourse
[08:12] <lotuspsychje> i installed ubuntu for many ppl that use only GUI
[08:13] <lotuspsychje> OerHeks: morning, join tha club!
[08:14] <OerHeks> Morning :-)
[08:14] <lotuspsychje> OerHeks: you know howto not colorize channels on joins/parts
[08:14] <lotuspsychje> OerHeks: i want only channel tabs light up, when talking
[08:14] <OerHeks> those colours are ugly indeed, no, those settings are poor :-(
[08:15] <lotuspsychje> OerHeks: i have to hide joins/parts to get rid of it then?
[08:15] <OerHeks> yes, i guess so
[08:15] <EriC^^> lotuspsychje: in xchat there's settings > preferences > colors
[08:15] <EriC^^> i guess it's the New data one
[08:15] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: i went to the dark side remember :p
[08:15] <lotuspsychje> hex
[08:15] <EriC^^> it has the same color as what lights up on joins/parts/etc.
[08:15] <EriC^^> lotuspsychje: should be similar, check it out
[08:18] <lotuspsychje> im gonna hide joins/parts its ok
[08:18] <OerHeks> there is a HCT file with old values https://github.com/hexchat/hexchat/issues/682
[08:19] <OerHeks> carefull, it overrides that standard files...
[08:21] <lotuspsychje> i like the hex colors
[08:21] <lotuspsychje> but just dont wanna click a tab, anytime a user joins
[08:21] <lotuspsychje> so ill disable it for the largest channels its ok
[08:25] <lotuspsychje> OerHeks, EriC^^ http://i.imgur.com/QKMwpya.png
[08:25] <lotuspsychje> fine like this :p
[08:26]  * histo uses weechat

[08:29] <EriC^^> what's that mp3 player
[08:29] <EriC^^> http://www.deviantart.com/art/New-Year-344675712
[08:31] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: at the right bottom under?
[08:31] <EriC^^> yeah
[08:31] <lotuspsychje> minimal stuff :p
[08:31] <lotuspsychje> !info Ncmpcpp
[08:31] <lotuspsychje> got it
[08:32] <lotuspsychje> !info dwm
[08:32] <lotuspsychje> we all have what this guy has
[08:32] <EriC^^> how do i run it? Couldn't connect to MPD (host = localhost, port = 6600): Connection refused
[08:33] <lotuspsychje> !find mpd
[08:33] <lotuspsychje> !info snmpd
[08:33] <lotuspsychje> hmm
[08:33] <lotuspsychje> not sure how it works
[08:35] <EriC^^> i installed moc, seems to work, colors suck though
[08:35] <EriC^^> !info moc
[08:37] <lotuspsychje_> oO
[08:46] <lotuspsychje_> !info mpd
[08:47] <lotuspsychje_> EriC^^: maybe this1 + Ncmpcpp
[08:47] <EriC^^> it installed libmpdclient2
[08:47] <EriC^^> maybe i need to restart that or something?
[08:48] <lotuspsychje_> yeah maybe as deamon needs restart
[08:49] <EriC^^> i tried to restart nmpd still refusing
[08:49] <EriC^^> i installed moc though, it's nice, needed some colors fixing
[08:49] <lotuspsychje_> nice
[08:49] <EriC^^> still the other one is sick though, maybe it'll work later some how
[08:52] <EriC^^> lotuspsychje_: it works! installed mpd and it runs now, thanks :>
[08:53] <lotuspsychje_> aha
[08:53] <lotuspsychje_> cool stuff
[08:53] <lotuspsychje_> such nice user desktops on deviant mm
[08:54] <EriC^^> something is still broke though, says can't set volume and i can't browse for the music
[08:54] <EriC^^> yeah good stuff on devianart
[08:55] <lotuspsychje_> EriC^^: you need to edit music folder manually perhaps?
[08:56] <EriC^^> it's worse than vim
[08:56] <EriC^^> lol
[08:56] <lotuspsychje_> loool
[08:56] <lotuspsychje_> EriC^^: you need to start that from terminal?
[08:56] <EriC^^> yeah
[08:57] <lotuspsychje_> maybe man mpd shows usefull stuff?
[09:00] <EriC^^> wow i think i need to put the music in a dir outside
[09:01] <lotuspsychje_> lol
[09:01] <EriC^^> Starting Music Player Daemon mpd                                             mapper: Failed to stat directory "/home/e/Music": Permission denied
[09:01] <lotuspsychje_> hmm
[09:01] <EriC^^> you have to give it where the music is first
[09:01] <EriC^^> i think it's for like a home music server or something
[09:01] <EriC^^> :D
[09:01] <lotuspsychje_> EriC^^: http://ncmpcpp.rybczak.net/faq.php
[09:02] <lotuspsychje_> A: Make sure that path to your MPD music dir in ncmpcpp configuration file is set properly.
[09:08] <EriC^^> ok i followed this guide http://www.linuxandlife.com/2012/01/simple-guide-to-set-up-mpd-with-ncmpcpp.html
[09:09] <EriC^^> got it almost working, just not showing all the mp3
[09:09] <histo> lotuspsychje_: auto spell check?
[09:09] <histo> I was fixing mine
[09:09] <lotuspsychje_> ah :p:p
[09:10] <lotuspsychje_> histo: my bad, had to scroll up :p
[09:10] <lotuspsychje_> EriC^^: many manual stuff on that guide lol
[09:10] <lotuspsychje_> EriC^^: you choose the right player haha
[09:11] <EriC^^> moc is nice it just installed and played straight away, but the columns in the middle suck
[09:11] <lotuspsychje_> i loved amarok in the past
[09:12] <EriC^^> this is harder than setting up a webserver or something wth
[09:12] <EriC^^> lol i cant get it work
[09:12] <lotuspsychje_> wahaha
[09:12] <EriC^^> ok, all the music is showing now i think
[09:12] <lotuspsychje_> EriC^^: you have joined #mpd yayyy
[09:12] <EriC^^> i think it just had to go over them or something
[09:13] <lotuspsychje_> a lot of fans like it the hard way
[09:13] <EriC^^> sweet you can use the mouse to click on them
[09:13] <EriC^^> nah it looked kind of nice in that screen shot
[09:13] <lotuspsychje_> yeah like that stuff too
[09:14] <EriC^^> hmm?
[09:14] <EriC^^> i didn't join #mpd
[09:14] <lotuspsychje_> i did
[09:14] <EriC^^> oh ok
[09:16] <EriC^^> it has a sick clock screen
[09:16] <lotuspsychje_> clock inside the player?
[09:16] <EriC^^> yeah, shows a huge clock in the terminal and the playing music at the bottom
[09:17] <histo> I use moc
[09:17] <lotuspsychje_> !info moc
[09:17] <histo> !info mocp
[09:17] <lotuspsychje_> cool!
[09:17] <EriC^^> i liked moc, i'll probably use it, it's more practical than having a single dir for music and whatever
[09:17] <histo> yeah check out the themes
[09:18] <lotuspsychje_> histo: feel free to share your desktop :p
[09:18]  * lotuspsychje_ is always curious about users desktops
[09:19] <histo> http://i.imgur.com/3t0zMN7.jpg
[09:20] <lotuspsychje_> nice your on arch
[09:20] <lotuspsychje_> helping with ubuntu support :p
[09:21] <histo> Yeah arch, here's desktop without guake dropped down http://i.imgur.com/ki2z9BP.jpg
[09:21] <lotuspsychje_> histo: nice1 is that conky right upper corner?
[09:22] <histo> XFCE4 with just a panel at the bottom, conky gotham theme, whisker menu on the panel. But I use keybaord shortcuts for everything.
[09:22] <histo> lotuspsychje_: yeah gotham theme
[09:22] <lotuspsychje_> cool
[09:22] <histo> http://mmesantos1.deviantart.com/art/Gotham-Conky-Mod-321918251
[09:23] <lotuspsychje_> histo: feel like my old ubuntu desktop on gnome classic
[09:23] <histo> I switch between xfce and i3 all the time. I boot to console and have i3 in my xinit but I can still use startxfce4 to get in xfce if need be.
[09:24] <lotuspsychje_> i3 has big channel fans
[09:24] <histo> Yeah I'm still helping in #ubuntu.  I started with ubuntu and still help people there also helps me keep in touch with what is going on with it. I have people I've gotten switched to linux using it.
[09:25] <lotuspsychje_> great purpose
[09:25] <histo> i3 is nice if you hate grabbing a mouse or a toucpad.
[09:25]  * histo vi bindings for everything.
[09:26] <lotuspsychje_> only keyboard
[09:26] <lotuspsychje_> anyway cheers and nice sundays to all
[12:43] <BluesKaj> Hey all
