[04:13] <Roguehorse> All quiet tonight ...
[04:17] <nhandler> At least in this channel :)
[04:18] <DonkeyHotei> all channels i'm in atm are quiet atm
[04:58] <Roguehorse> well, it's late too and a weeknight
[04:58] <Roguehorse> I have a friend from school coming over tomorrow wants me to teach him Linux
[04:59] <ianorlin> ah that sounds nice
[04:59] <Roguehorse> funny how people think it can be acieved in like, one sitting
[05:00] <Roguehorse> it will be, I have fun with that stuff
[05:00] <Roguehorse> s/acieved/achieved
[05:05] <Roguehorse> this is all contingent that he shows up =p
[05:06] <ianorlin> ah I know that fact
[05:09] <Roguehorse> oh yeah, we've all been there ... "sure, I'll wait around for you" (never show)
[05:09] <ianorlin> I heard it happens for people that rvsp for stuff online
[05:20] <Roguehorse> everyone gets it, no one is immune
[05:21] <Roguehorse> this is the first time he's ever come over so, I can't really say if he'll show or not
[05:34] <ianorlin> yeah first time going somewhere is most nerve wracking
[06:31] <Roguehorse> I should tell you guys about the 10 days I spent with a crazy woman in Florida I met on MySpace =)
[06:32] <ianorlin> Roguehorse: my mom is in mental hospital right now
[06:32] <Roguehorse> AH!
[06:32] <Roguehorse> ????
[06:33] <ianorlin> yeah but she has been having problems
[06:33] <Roguehorse> oh
[06:33] <ianorlin> at least I didn't have the nighmare scenario of having to leave scale to pick up my mom from mental hosptial
[06:33] <ianorlin> that would have not been fun
[06:34] <Roguehorse> is she doing ok?
[06:34] <DonkeyHotei> especially in all that traffic
[06:38] <ianorlin> she was not doing so many erratic things was hard to get anything done
[06:49] <Roguehorse> it happens to anyone
[07:21] <Roguehorse> what is that KDE program for making slideshows?
[07:27] <Roguehorse> got it
[07:35] <nhaines> Is there a KDE program just for slideshows?
[13:59] <Roguehorse> Good Morning =)
[15:09] <Roguehorse> what do I tweak in grub so tty1 is a better resolution than 640x480?
[15:11] <akk> tty1 after login shouldn't be a function of grub ... it's whatever upstart/systemd/init makes it long after the system is booted.
[15:11] <akk> Unless you're just trying to get the grub splash screen to be high resolution.
[15:11] <akk> (then it's not tty1 afaik, it's just the grub screen)
[15:47] <Roguehorse> so setting this won't do it?  GRUB_GFXMODE="1920x1080"
[15:47] <Roguehorse> instead of auto?
[15:52] <akk> I think that will change the resolution of the splash screen, not the screen you get after you boot.
[15:52] <akk> But I could be wrong, doesn't hurt to try it.
[15:53] <akk> I'm certainly no expert on grub, gave up on it not long after grub2 became mandatory.
[15:55] <Roguehorse> ah
[15:55] <ianorlin> I am not a grub expert either
[15:57] <Roguehorse> I think I need to add this line too:   GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep
[15:58] <Roguehorse> I'm just intrigued that it's even at 640x480, must be the Nvidia driver ..... it just updated on me a few days ago
[15:59] <Roguehorse> it's an older 9800GT card but works fine
[16:00] <Roguehorse> trying to pull eclipse and it's taking FOREVER!
[16:00] <akk> Eclipse does take forever to install, and then another forever to configure.
[16:01]  * akk has only used it for android, which itself takes at least five forevers even if you don't use eclipse for it
[16:01] <akk> I was so happy when I learned how to do android builds with ant so I could ditch eclipse.
[16:03] <ianorlin> texlive takes a while to install as well
[16:15] <Roguehorse> well, I might have to just kill it and try later
[16:16] <Roguehorse> I really don't need it right now anyway and I know where to get it
[17:02] <ianorlin> join ##hardware
