Comments:
<0> :( k, thx
<1> plus I have to go let the vampires **** some blood out of my arm now, anyway :/ blood tests ****
<0> lol
<2> lol
<2> hey, can you people answer me this
<2> would a WMA or AVI play better on KDe than on Windows?
<3> Lynucs_Newbie: why, is it sluggish on your pc in windows?
<2> yep
<2> cant run a 640 x 480 very well
<4> WMA some can't *cough* drm
<2> (got me screen @ 1280 x 1024 though, lol)
<4> minr is at 1280 x 1024
<4> mine*
<2> 32 or 16 bit?
<2> prob a stupid qn
<2> this may be an odd qn to ask in this irc, but would you say that Gnome offers similar functionality as KDe?
<5> Lynucs_Newbie: if they play poorly in windows they probably won't play much better in linux
<6> 2048x1536x32
<5> Lynucs_Newbie: and of course it's silly, and yes, gnome offers similar functionality
<5> Lynucs_Newbie: it's still not as good, though
<3> hehe
<5> Lynucs_Newbie: if you want more intriguing info, ask in #gnome
<5> or is it ##gnome?
<3> but gnome is very good too! the bad guys are from the propietary software places :P
<3> Shirakawasuna: I think it's irc://irc.gnome.org/gnome or something like that
<5> I haven't tried gnome since 2.10, so I wouldn't know
<5> it's ##gnome
<2> ta
<2> Also another odd QN
<7> ## for officialness i thought?
<5> I didn't' like gnome...things tended to break and all of the good stuff was hidden in he registry
<5> Lynucs_Newbie: you'll eventually get annoyed at gnome
<2> is there any flash replica's of a desktop
<2> lol
<7> has anyone noticed clearlooks looks better in kde than gnome?
<5> flash replica's? what are you talking about?
<5> and why the apostrophe?
<5> kilrae: yes :)
<5> clearlooks2 window dec ftw
<4> flash for the browser?
<2> like a flash version of a desktop for playing with
<2> yep
<5> flash is proprietary
<3> Lynucs_Newbie: you can test a remote NX desktop to see how it's like I belive you can get an account in nomachine.com
<5> it's not a nuance
<2> yay
<2> NX is equivilent to what?
<5> flash does doesn't do very much to stay up on its linux builds
<4> Lynucs_Newbie you me anapp to make flash ?
<3> flash player is propietary
<3> swf I think it's not much
<2> no nvm
<5> there's an open source player, but it's behind
<7> i think he means like an emulation kinda thing of gnome or whathaveyou
<2> I dont mean anything like that
<4> you can play most flash with mplayer
<2> Just some way I can sample the feel of a desktop
<5> I think he means a flash player desktop
<3> NX is like VNC but faster
<2> noooooooooooooooooooooooo!
<5> Lynucs_Newbie: that sounds exactly like what kilrae just said
<4> lives you can make them and cinelerra too. and a couple of other apps
<5> Lynucs_Newbie: and no, I don't think there is one
<2> yes!!!
<5> Lynucs_Newbie: just get a livecd w/ gnome on it and get a livecd w/ kde
<7> it would be pointless, you can change everything in both gnome and kde
<5> Lynucs_Newbie: the gentoo livecd has gnome 2.12 and a knoppix livecd has kde
<3> yeah that's what I was thinking too :P
<7> there is no set look/feel
<2> I've tried Linux on Windows
<2> from Cygwin, and
<4> yuk
<2> um..
<7> btw *cough* freebsd
<4> lol
<2> lol
<4> even when I first tried linux it was daul boot
<7> i'm still dual boot
<8> This linux box is a dual boot.. just somethings can't be done in Linux yet
<5> Lynucs_Newbie: get those two liveCDs and try them out.
<4> not I and extremely happy
<4> :D
<5> Lynucs_Newbie: they're good representations for what the desktop will be like by default
<5> although knoppix will have a lot more junk
<7> there's a name for people like oneforall
<5> foolish!
<8> lol
<7> zealot?
<7> i know there's a word
<2> well, you've really answered all of my qns; so thank you for your help
<7> for people who don't dual boot
<4> can't be a fool when you've tried it and don't miss it at all
<8> Shirakawasuna: isn't that word for people who actually pay for their copy of windows?
<7> shhh
<2> (thank renze for me please l8r)
<7> bill's listening
<5> but that was like 5 years ago
<5> my current copy came w/ the laptop
<8> uh.. yeah.. so did mine.... yeah.. that's it... came with the harddrive I bought...
<2> lmfao
<8> *cough*
<2> Windows Tax?
<5> you should look into that cough, it sounds kinda nasty
<2> You've cought a win-bug
<5> I use windows for the things linux can't quite do sometimes
<5> although I boot into linux essentially all of the time
<8> I got it to play a game or too
<5> yeah, wine isn't perfect
<2> I've got a friend who wants linux, but cant do gaming on it, so he is keeping KP
<2> XP**
<5> Lynucs_Newbie: dualboot, of course
<2> oh yeah, one more thing: WINE
<2> go or no go
<8> hell this system is basically a killer game machine. I just don't play games really
<5> wine works for a lot of things
<8> cedega does too
<8> and it's cheap
<5> cedega works even better and has support
<8> like a bra?
<5> more like a jock strap
<8> that's more protection than support
<5> I'm bored of my system being so stable
<5> I need to find something to break
<8> what distro you using?
<5> windows used to break things for me
<5> gentoo
<5> win32?
<5> gentoo is fun :)
<5> everything is fixable
<8> if I can't apt-get it, it's not worth getting
<5> and upgradeable
<4> accually I was going to get cedega for my boys pc . but none of the 3 games they had would work in it. all 3 said that on their site. 2 do in wine thou
<5> meh, emerge rocks
<5> it's like apt-get with compiling and searching
<2> well, i'm out of here
<5> and all sorts of fun options
<2> thank you for the help, it wont be forgotten
<8> I'm no programmer so that's why it's never really interested me
<8> oneforall: what games?
<2> if anyone wants to talk l8r on MSN; neo-inuyash@excite.com (Its got a p***port)
<5> LiquidNerd: it's not like the fact that it compiles from source means it's for programmers only
<2> bye and thanks
<5> LiquidNerd: it's more about customizability and maintainability
<4> Age of Empires II/The Conquers (set)
<4> forget he other it doesn't work in either
