| lotuspsychje | good morning mates | 01:38 |
|---|---|---|
| lotuspsychje | im installing 2 boxes with ubuntu that have mint + cinnamon on, the user had many issues with hibernation, system freezes,browser crashes,.. | 01:40 |
| lotuspsychje | the guy spent 7 hours installing mint + packages on 1 box oO | 01:40 |
| lotuspsychje | and counted every hour working on it, she had to pay 300$ | 01:41 |
| daftykins | :S to whom? or her own time? | 01:43 |
| Bashing-om | lotuspsychje: Ouch for her ! I feel like she has been "taken" . | 01:43 |
| lotuspsychje | yes, he sat there drinking coffee, in her time | 01:43 |
| lotuspsychje | wth... | 01:43 |
| lotuspsychje | i once installed ubuntu on it for her, and he made a dualboot out of it with mint | 01:44 |
| daftykins | who is this joker :D | 01:44 |
| lotuspsychje | because she follows a linux class, and he's the teacher addicted to mint, he could overwelm her with that mints better | 01:45 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 01:45 |
| Bashing-om | I HopE it is no one we know . | 01:45 |
| lotuspsychje | i feel embarrassed for my country lol | 01:46 |
| lotuspsychje | i told her not to work with him anymore and pass her 2 laptops to me | 01:46 |
| lotuspsychje | im doing both format in 1 hour lol | 01:46 |
| lotuspsychje | i wonder why so many users love mint, didnt cinnamon have big issues? | 01:47 |
| Bashing-om | ~~ | 01:48 |
| lotuspsychje | or is it just mint's structure | 01:48 |
| lotuspsychje | the desktop felt green and minimal, but under the hood many issues | 01:49 |
| daftykins | it was definitely leaky to begin with | 01:51 |
| daftykins | i don't really understand why anyone would choose to get something second rate when they can get it at source, but then i suppose that's true in a manner of speaking with Ubuntu -> debian :) | 01:52 |
| daftykins | just i found debian never had sane defaults | 01:52 |
| lotuspsychje | and not so user friendly at the beginning | 01:53 |
| daftykins | ja | 01:53 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 01:53 |
| Bashing-om | My intro was slackware, I found ubuntu a breath of fresh air . | 01:54 |
| lotuspsychje | cool | 01:54 |
| lotuspsychje | mine was early redhat | 01:55 |
| lotuspsychje | could choose gnome, kde or enlightment | 01:56 |
| daftykins | i followed some debian network install guides :> | 01:56 |
| lotuspsychje | the guy changed bios mode to IDE instead of AHCI for dualboot w7 + mint wtf | 02:09 |
| daftykins | >_< | 02:14 |
| daftykins | time for me to clock out, later folks \o | 02:16 |
| lotuspsychje | daftykins: nite nite | 02:40 |
| OerHeks | LoLz, a mint teacher .. | 02:42 |
| OerHeks | oh, i should say sad sad, a mint teacher | 02:43 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 03:28 |
| lotuspsychje | morning OerHeks | 03:28 |

| lordievader | Good morning | 08:06 |
| MonkeyDust | my banking account ... using Tor browser ... inside a linux VM guest, with iptables enabled ... inside a linux host with iptabled enabled ... please tell me i'm being paranoid | 09:29 |
| lordievader | How many layers of encryption at the tor endpoint? | 09:37 |
| MonkeyDust | medium-high security, what does that say | 09:41 |
| lordievader | That is not what I am asking. Do you have just an ssl layer from the tor endpoint to the bank website? | 09:42 |
| MonkeyDust | not sure, i accepted the default options | 09:42 |
| lordievader | Because if you where really paranoid you'd have like a million layers of encryption on your connections to the bank. | 09:43 |
| MonkeyDust | thanks, that makes me feel a bit normal again | 09:44 |
| lordievader | :P | 09:44 |
| MonkeyDust | i was worrying about my mental sanity | 09:45 |
| lordievader | Too bad banks usually only support ssl. | 09:46 |
| lotuspsychje | morning lordievader | 09:48 |
| lordievader | lotuspsychje: Just in time ;) | 09:49 |
| MonkeyDust | there's some SSL observe plugin installed | 09:49 |
| lotuspsychje | lordievader: whats going on :p | 09:51 |
| lordievader | Not much, taking a break from studying for a bit. | 09:51 |
| lordievader | How are you doing? | 09:51 |
| lotuspsychje | great, i found that ralink module on my own desktop, uses a generic firmware version | 09:52 |
| lotuspsychje | im wondering wich packages ubuntu installs on updates that have these generic firmwares in? | 09:53 |
| lordievader | You mean reverse dep on linux-firmware? | 09:55 |
| lotuspsychje | not sure | 09:55 |
| lordievader | lotuspsychje: https://paste.kde.org/pft6t2hf1 | 09:55 |
| lotuspsychje | so the default module is rt2800pci.ko right | 09:55 |
| lotuspsychje | how can i see wich packages hold this generic firmware | 09:56 |
| lordievader | lotuspsychje: Search for it with apt-file | 09:57 |
| lotuspsychje | updating apt-file | 09:59 |
| lotuspsychje | linux-image-extra-3.19.0-28-generic: /lib/modules/3.19.0-28-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/rt2800pci.ko | 10:01 |
| lotuspsychje | get a large index of dirs here | 10:01 |
| lordievader | So it is in many packages then ;) But it comes with the kernel. | 10:03 |
| lotuspsychje | so you think that generic firmware is in the newer kernel and thats why on updated system the wifi card works? | 10:04 |
| lotuspsychje | i dont know the exact name of the generic firmware package | 10:06 |
| lotuspsychje | shows like this: driver= rt2800pci driverversion= generic firmware and a number | 10:07 |
| daftykins | this hntty is a right asshat | 23:29 |
