<0> nm.. solved. Requiem for a Dream.
<1> where do i get the recent version of OpenSSL libcrypto
<2> oh, here's vipersniper
<3> hi Dino
<2> no
<2> i blame canada:)
<3> i blame palestine ;)
<2> why
<2> :(
<3> why not
<2> canada should build the power station again:)
<3> you need a portable power station ;)
<2> i'm eating palms
<2> it is sweet :>3
<4> Wouldn't that be a coconut?
<5> GtG
<6> hi all
<1> Hello
<7> hell oo
<8> ffffff00
<1> p3nguin, arround
<9> is it true that Toshiba laptops are not very well supported on linux as hardware?
<9> hmm, guess the silence is a confirmation
<0> last time I had a Toshiba was like... 6 years ago
<9> nivek: your experience with it?
<0> fine.. but it was running NT4
<9> i have a very good deal on a Toshiba laptop, but if linux is not supported, i'd rather burn it
<9> so, i'm trying to cut down the list, but i don't have a broad experience with linux on laptops
<0> I've done Dells, and my current one is an Acer.. both have been fine
<0> except for the ****ty Broadcom wireless card
<9> oh
<0> I've got an atheros card I'm going to try in it if I ever remember to pick it up
<9> for me, the most important thing after the graphics card is the network interface, if either one is not supported, the hardware is useless
<0> you'll find Broadcom in a lot of laptops :(
<9> that ****s
<0> indeed
<10> is there anything like "microsofts money" for linux? I running slack 10.something
<11> sure
<11> kmymoney
<11> and gnucash
<11> kmymoney is more money like though
<10> ok, I'll go check thoughs out
<10> thanks
<12> if you want a laptop that work reall well with linux -- Lenovo (IBM) ThinkPads
<13> thx null For the info =|
<12> saw cognition asking about laptops above so i thought i'd share :D
<10> geerrr, how do I give my user permission to execcommands?
<9> calvinthedestro: man sudo
<10> man <-- command not found ?
<10> and Im signed in as root
<9> then something is seriously wrong with your distro if you don't even have the man pages
<9> try which man
<10> no there there
<10> I've veiwed them befor
<0> kickstand, I may be in Paducah later this week... hook me up a chick
<14> i'll see what i can do
<0> haha
<14> let me know when you make it over
<15> they may not have been installed on the system
<0> what, a chick?
<15> (the man pages)
<0> oh
<0> btw.. I just realized... amaroK rocks.
<14> what's she look like?
<0> she?
<0> it's a media player
<0> lol
<9> LOL
<9> i think the best MPs are VLC, mplayer, xmms, and xine.
<9> VLC and mplayer are my most favorite ones
<16> i like xmms just my 2 cents
<14> mplayer is so so
<14> it gets the job done
<15> hello?
<9> actually, mplayer is the most powerful one i've used
<16> kaudio creator is so slow
<17> mencoder
<9> anyway, media players are so abundant these days that it doesn't matter what you pick anymore, they all get the job done
<16> ha but it runs a lot faster if you change it to high priority
<16> mencoder?
<9> mencoder is just a utility that comes with mplayer
<16> ah
<9> a great utility for that matter
<16> you know that their talking about future computers will have the operating system encoded on a chip on the motherboard
<16> you specify the operating system when you buy the computer
<9> unlikely
<9> i very much doubt that
<16> its just talk..bill gates cannot even figure out when he is releasing vista
<9> well, i doubt it will ever go beyond talk
<16> mit would have advantages..but i think it would be hard to implement
<9> the very nature of software and its ever changing form prohibits hardwiring it
<9> it's like hardwiring the java virtual machine, a very bad idea
<6> I don't see operating systems coming on a chip.
<6> The industry moved away from that 20 years ago
<9> the things that might be hardwired are not going to be beyond very basic low level operations
<6> yup. Though looking at efi, maybe thats going away too.
<9> some new hardware supports new hardware features for multi-threading, but beyond that, i don't see any value for it.
<6> but yeah, you're right. At some point, there has to be silicon. :)
<6> never mind. I thought you were talking about something else
<18> excuseme but who know about a room of linux in spanish?
<0> #linux.es ?
<9> i guess we almost agreed on something then. Not bad
<6> Last time I checked, #linux.es was empty
<18> yep
<18> is empty
<6> then there isn't one on this network that I know of
<18> jaja no problem thx
<16> i could see bill gates trying to make a cpu, ram, and operating system non-changable on a motherboard
<9> lucario: i think you would find more such channels in the bigger networks
<9> try efnet or ircnet or the other big ones
<18> ths cognition
<18> i use ubuntu
<16> nothing wrong with ubuntu
<9> i tried it, Ubuntu wasn't worth the fuss
<16> i really like this pclinux...stripped down mandriva
<9> it basically gives you the tit and does everything for ya, kind of a brushed and cleaned Debian.
<9> Reminds me of Microsoft windows, does everything for ya, whether you like it or not
<16> well i like breezy badger...
<16> not to great on dapper
<18> yes but linux is free
<18> ubuntu is free
<18> and fedora
<18> suse
<18> hace a cost
<19> RedHat Linux 5.1 was my first encounter with Linux
<9> nope, suse has a free version
<9> so does mandriva
<16> yes suse has a free version
<16> i got it somewhere but coulndt get yast to work
<18> yes but debian is oriented be free
<9> i think debian is by far the most comfortable one to work with (for me)
<16> my first linux encounter was 6.0 Redhat Linux
<18> wow
<18> my firts linux was redhat
<18> 9
<16> the new debian is pretty cool
<9> a great packaging system, huge community support, excellent stability and performance, all that i need
<16> apt-get is very fast
<18> yes debian is cool
<18> but so hard
<20> hello all ...
<18> and ubuntu is so easy
<18> xD
<9> only problem, is that it's not very welcoming to noobs
<9> but then again, i'm not one, so i dont' care
<18> jajaa with ubuntu i work quiet
<19> Thats part of the fun of Linux
<18> mor relax
