<0> the underlying graphical user interface protocol doesn't handle that.
<1> read that it is possible to allow 2 users to VNC to a windows desktop, except they have to fight for control over the cursor
<0> windows can do that but not with VNC. it can with netmetting.
<0> err, netmeeting.
<1> and linux? or unix in general?
<0> but both being interactive can cause craziness.
<0> X windows doesn't handle that.
<1> so would it be possible for 2 users to vnc on the same desktop, except there would be to cursors, or would that be askin a bit much?
<0> that would not be possible
<0> X only has one mouse event queue
<0> there isn't a concept of separate mice
<0> each X server has one keyboard and one mouse event queue
<0> even if you have multiple physical keyboards and mice
<0> they either get separate X servers
<0> or they are the same keyboard and the same mice
<0> err, same mouse
<1> kk, so it owuld be impossible to somehow create a second cursor?
<0> you could create a second cursor
<0> but you will not be able to distinguish one mouse from the other
<0> if you did something insane like ***ociate antoher cursor with some other input device
<0> like a joystick (not even sure if that is possible)
<0> or something REALLY insane like /dev/random
<0> the mice from the two VNC sessions would still only be able to control the single mouse event queue
<0> so they would be competing for the same cursor
<1> without writing a second mouse qeue into x server?
<0> and the other one would not be ***ociated.
<1> Thank you Doc
<2> pbug: that looks about right
<2> neato, thanks :)
<3> hey guys
<3> just got back from cancun
<4> is that in .mx?
<3> from 85 to 20 degrees
<3> yea
<4> didn't they have a hurricane there just this summer?
<3> yea..its wiped out
<3> 40% of cancun is operational
<5> why were you there if only 40% was operational
<4> musta been the women
<5> chicks needing shelter and food are so hot
<1> pbug, in my shell that wont work
<1> [avudz@batur ~]$ cat test.txt
<3> lol i had no idea about the extend of the damage
<6> in spreadsheets, how do I specify the last box with contents in row B?
<3> i herad it was bad
<1> "Random Name Here" <real@email.address.com",
<1> [avudz@batur ~]$ sed -e 's/.*\<\(.*\)\>/\1/g' test.txt
<3> but it was worth it
<1> com",
<3> i spend the week in the strip clubz
<3> with mamacitas
<3> and bars
<5> yashy, i just do like B1-999999999
<5> :D
<1> could you tell me why please?
<6> tchang: I only want the content from the last box though.. not all of B
<5> :P
<4> sobh: what OS are you using?
<5> pity ;)
<1> pbug, linux
<6> Vova: glad to hear you were able to visit a country in tragedy and stayed drunk in strip bars while they struggled. What a great person you are.
<4> sobh: oh btw.. I had to correct kneer0 on something .. he had a " instead of a closing > I see you copied it as he had it
<4> yashy: well cancun is a tourist town.. that's how they make their money there, so they need a lot more tourists :)
<1> pbug, i did change it too, but not work
<6> pbug: I'm well aware. I just find it sad he prefixed his story with less then 1/2 the country functional, and how he was still glad he could party.
<1> pbug, i think i should learn sed again
<5> \m/
<7> hmm... in awk... how do u do regexp with ***ignent ?
<7> likes temp =~ s/A//; kinda thingy ?
<6> American mentality though, not surprising.. just sad.
<1> brb
<4> my buddy hasn't booted his linux computer yet, so I can't verify this, and booting linux here takes too long
<7> any awk users ?
<4> phazor: never heard of awk being capable of that.. I think you're thinking of perl
<7> pbug well it is capable of // kind of RE
<7> perhaps u r right
<7> i just ***ume it would be handy there
<5> 08:31 <@Yashy> American mentality though, not surprising.. just sad.
<5> hey now
<5> :P
<5> for the record, I was epmhatically *not* in cancun, getting drunk with mamacitas :P
<8> it can match on regular expressions, but not replace, afaik
<7> thanks
<4> what do you think for bell south putting router priority for content sites that pay them money? I think that's outragious.. I always had a feeling it would come to this when the telcos started buying up ISP's
<6> tchang: good to hear :)
<8> ah, there's sub() and gsub(), man awk :)
<3> Yashu, i contributed financialy to the conomy of cancun
<3> no one else dared to visit the destruction
<3> *economy
<3> :)
<9> pbug: yes it is blatant extortion.
<1> what application used in linux to download torrent file?
<4> in OpenBSD I use bittorrent, in Linux a buddy of mine uses azureus, both of them can be downloaded from sourceforge.net
<4> bittorrent runs on python, azureus on java
<10> there are a lot of bit torrent clients.
<10> some in C, some in python, some in ruby, some on java..
<10> freshmeat.net has a nice list.
<11> i run azureus on windows.
<11> it's pretty much cross-platform.
<1> qtorrent
<4> buyblue.org seems pretty interesting..
<4> http://www.buyblue.org/node/869/view/summary <-- of course.. exxon..
<1> thanks
<4> 95% of political contribution went to the republicans
<6> pbug: Looks like the cons have made their way ahead of the Canadian race :(
<4> http://www.buyblue.org/node/1053/view/summary <-- google is 100% democrat, doesn't surprise me somewhat
<10> "Then the bubble burst, and the same answer [I was a web designer] to the same question provoked looks of pity and barely concealed disgust. I remember meeting a high-rolling entrepreneur in the early 2000s who asked what I did. I should have told him I hung around playgrounds, stealing children.s lunch money. He would have had more respect for that answer." <LAUGH>
<10> I like Zeldman from "A List Apart".. He always seems to have a good handle on humor in terms of web.
<1> strange. sata appears as scsi.?
<1> wierd
<1> cuz /dev/sda is an scsi disk
<1> I didnt know that sata shows up as an scsi
<4> you'll just have to live with it
<1> hehe i guess
<10> Just the way they wrote the drivers.
<10> I ***ume we are refering to Linux?
<1> yes Mouring
<10> There has always been arguments in the Linux camp and this need to unify everything. At one point they had SCSI, IDE, MFM, etc all showing up as the same device naming.
<10> Or had a patch to complete the work.
<10> The argument for IDE at least was "It looks like SCSI now, why not just treat it that way."
<10> that and all the burning software wanted SCSI devices and refused to add IDE code.
<11> heh.
<1> Good point Mouring
<4> in one hour new horizons goes to pluto
<1> Mouring.. all sata disks are sd* for some reason :)
<10> SATA is even closer to SCSI in some regards than IDE was.
<10> or PATA if you want to use the offical names.
<10> WHY they made this choice. <shrug> Have to ask them.
<1> :)
<1> I guess you're right
<4> he's always right
<1> ye
<1> yep
<1> That, I know
<4> yashy: I wonder if every person in .ca voted for teh marijuana party if they'd rig the elections
<1> ubuntu locks the root p***word by default
<1> by default the root account is disabled
<1> How stupid is that :/
<10> I ***ume sudo works.
<4> hrmm isn't that what mac os X does too?
<4> just sudo su -
<10> yes MacOS X wants sudo.
<10> pbug, I just do sudo /bin/bash =-)
<12> You can just do sudo -s instead of sudo <shell>, too.
<4> just makes you wonder when you go into single user mode what they want as p***word then...
<4> guess you'll have to init=/bin/sh or something
<10> pbug, they don't.
<10> at last MacOSX
