<5> thats the error i get
<1> Prior to that, I had some FreeBSD fun on my 486SX/25 with 48MB of RAM and.....................SHOCK...........a 1.6GB hard drive!!!! I had to use overlay software for the computer to use it.

<2> I'm just giving you a hard time
<6> bitrot: whats new?
<2> yeah I know what you mean
<2> thrasher7: nadda you?
<3> and then add some size to that
<6> new tv
<2> oooo
<2> what kind?
<2> DLP?>
<6> plasma
<2> omg
<2> you didn't tell me you were flithy rich.
<3> take it back and get LCD
<2> yeah I would get a DLP but that's me
<3> plasma has a slow response and tends to burn into the screen
<2> anyways WoW...
<6> 50" lcd = 2x as much
<3> and will last 10x as long
<6> nah
<3> ttp://www.cnet.com.au/tvs/0,39035250,40036500,00.htm
<3> http://www.cnet.com.au/tvs/0,39035250,40036500,00.htm
<3> too bad there's no 1080p sets on the market though
<6> there are a couple
<6> buy they are far too expensive
<3> I doubt those are true 1080p, last I checked there were no 1080p sets only 1080i
<3> interlaced vs progressive scan
<7> redhook: yeah there are true 1080p sets
<7> have been for at least 9 months to a year
<6> bitrot: http://www.flickr.com/photos/thrasher7/188503532/
<6> bitrot: theres some WOW for ya
<2> mmm nice ;)
<6> the tv has vga input
<6> :)
<3> what you didnt get the wall mount?
<2> whos the homeboy playing while kneeling?
<6> havent put it up yet
<3> vga or dvi?
<6> VGA
<2> bah VGA :\
<3> too bad it doesnt have dvi
<8> if i quickpkg'd a package, how do i remerge it?
<6> bitrot: friend of mine
<2> I would make sure it had DVI but that's just me.
<6> redhook: whats the diff
<3> quality
<6> redhook: its only 1366 x 768
<2> the quality is huge thrasher7
<2> i used DVI on my 20.1"
<2> then switched to VGA
<2> looked like **** compared to DVI
<2> i mean noticeable ****.
<6> well it looks fine here
<2> anyways bbl
<2> thrasher7: because you haven't seen it with DVI :)
<3> yep
<6> i have seen composite
<6> got my 360 right there
<3> you'd love that xbox360 playing via dvi
<3> hmm, food
<8> i've never used quickpkg before, and I can't remember the exact version of xorg-x11 that i quickpkg'd
<6> its just too bad this tv dosent have a tuner
<6> gotta re-setup my myth tv box now :P
<8> nm, i guess it's emerge /path/to/*tbz2
<6> its not but that works
<9> render_layer.cpp:952:2: warning: #warning HACK
<9> so much for that hack.
<3> thrasher7: that tv doesnt have a tuner?
<3> guess that makes it a monitor
<9> I think they have a special name for those tv's without tuners...
<9> aren't they called moni... dammit redhook
<6> redhook: yeah i guess
<6> a lot of the larger tvs dident have a tuner
<6> suprising ly
<3> if I'm spending thousands on a set it better have a tuner
<6> why?
<3> although I guess most everyone has sat/digital cable these days
<6> you wont be able to use it in like 2 years anyway
<6> yeah i'm stealing cable so i dont
<6> but in a couple years wont be able to get anything without a digital receiver
<3> well if I get a tv like that it better have a digital reciever in it
<6> so you want a cable card one
<3> hahahah
<3> the cable companies arent allowing tv's that have the card slots
<6> only way your getting a digital receiver in a tv
<3> theres digital OTA out now
<3> we have digital stations on the air here
<6> i'll just get the box ceom the cable company if i ever pay for cable
