<0> nevermind
<1> Tamahome_: well my mediabox is mirrored, got the vga cable plugged into the monitor and a dvi -> hdmi cable plugged into my 32inch tv
<0> libolt: did you have to buy a DVI-D cable specifically?
<0> my 6600GT has DVI-I on it, and I hear I can't connect it directly to HDMI
<0> I don't have a set with HDMI... there is one upstairs but it's not mine
<2> so.... who needs help? <evil snickering>
<0> rotards, anyone?
<1> yeah I bought the cable separately, the only pain is getting the X display centered and sized properly
<3> Lion-O: how can i teh loonix is it C or what is teh command to do rm everyting yes?!
<0> libolt: ohhh yeah, I bet X doesn't take TV overscan into consideration.
<2> Tamahome_: hmm... tempting
<2> Cynic: reboot, reboot now!
<4> grab a beer, it is time, Hmmmmm?
<0> Ka-bar: oh no, not that again :P
<1> Tamahome_: yeah I had to plug it into a windows box and use this little utility that spits out Xorg/XFree86 modelines and I had it working fine for a while but it's got the image stretched too far again and off center, just been too lazy to fix it
<0> heheh
<0> what resolution do you run it at, 1360x768?
<1> yeah, tried different variations, the utility spit out a whole bunch of modelines
<0> most HDMI sets have a specific "native resolution"
<0> and the other resolutions it can do are scaled up/down
<0> which wreaks havoc with PS2 games, supposedly
<0> makes Guitar Heroes unplayable, according to the Penny Arcade guys, anyhow
<1> Tamahome_: it's rated at 1366x768 I believe. Yeah I've got my PS2 plugged in with component video cables
<0> oh... they said they hadn't tried it with component
<0> what games do you play?
<1> eh lately mostly just sports games some burnout 3 and such
<0> ah
<1> it works fine enough for me for the amount I use it
<5> well, it wreaks havoc with any game that requires timing ;)
<5> because scaling the signal takes time
<0> http://www.penny-arcade.com/2006/02/20/#21621 -- scroll down to the bottom
<0> Rel: evil :P
<6> startkeylogger ?
<6> OOPS!
<0> LOL
<7> how do I view a list of all groups (added by groupadd)
<0> more /etc/groups?
<2> more or less ;)
<7> is it /etc/groups or /etc/group
<0> oh sorry my bad
<0> it is group
<7> thanks...how about list of all users?
<8> ask the admin
<2> /etc/p***wd ?
<7> that would be me ;-)
<2> figc_: I'd suggest reading a manual
<8> time to read some basic sysadmin docs
<0> well... p***wd would only be authoritative if you weren't using NIS or LDAP
<2> hehehe
<7> well, just a home based linux machine.....
<0> well then yeah... /etc/p***wd is the users
<8> shouldn't have many users then or extra groups
<7> hmmm, format of those files is odd....
<0> it's just text.
<0> but read the manual pages for them.
<7> true... I ***ume first entry before the : is user
<3> figc_: you could do with a bit of http://tldp.org
<0> a reasonable ***umption
<0> but yeah...TLDP is a good place to start
<7> thnx
<8> man p***wd will likely have what each field is for
<3> well, man 5 p***wd anyway
<3> or man p***wd(5) as Lion-O would argue *ducks*
<7> a lot more users than expected outside of root, my account, there are such accounts as irc, gnats, nobody, syslog, klog, cupsys.....
<0> many of them are never used.
<0> until you install software that logs in as those users
<7> mail, games, bin, daemon.....
<2> right.
<2> duh ;)
<3> Lion-O: permaban .ro?
<4> naaah... can't do that, then we'd lose cool people like tavi
<0> tavi is one of those unfortunate exceptions to the rule
<0> someone needs to give him a shell :P
<3> Ka-bar: the few regulars could maybe keep a screen session alive on an international box somewhere?
<3> yeah
<2> Cynic: much worse
<2> Cynic: I w0rte an email
<0> besides, I'm not even sure how effective banning .ro is nowadays what with *.users.undernet.org
<3> oh no!!!11oneone
<4> Tamahome_, The mutt has X-ray vision. He can see through +x hostmasks
<0> oh
<2> Tamahome_: aye. that and the fact most kiddies have 10+ X accounts these days
<0> annoying, those rotards are
<2> Tamahome_: what I consider even more disturbing is the impression they bestow on their fellow .ro'ers
<0> Peter: but we've experienced this before... some years back with the .my lamers
<2> indeed
<3> yes, .my was particularly bad
<0> holy **** is it 21:00 already?
<3> Tamahome_: no, it's 15:00, duh ;)
<2> Tamahome_: still, that was the previous 500 handleing it, this is my term ;)
<0> Kim: shush, ozzie :P
<2> Tamahome_: no, its 3:00am
<3> Tamahome_: *what* did you call me?!
<4> it's 21:00
<0> true that.
<2> Ka-bar: no its not
<0> Cynic: oh wait I keep forgetting you're in .nz
<4> 21:00EST (GMT-5)
<0> so that's... sheep-*shot*
<3> hehe 'sok most people don't even know it's a seperate country, or even that it's an island.
<3> hehe
<9> Cynic: you have sheep there right?
<0> I wonder why I keep confusing .au with .nz
<0> must be the accent
<9> Tamahome_: hahahaha
<0> I wasn't joking, but OK
<9> NZ == Kiwi's.... AU == Convicts
<0> I know AU was a British penal colony, yeah
<3> heh, that's a pretty simplistic synopsis, but i'm happy with it
<9> Cynic: figured you would like that
<0> oh gawd, CSI
<9> the original one. I don't watch any of the other ones
<0> I don't watch any, so there
<10> TV has gotten so ****ty these days
<9> dogbert2: yeah, but but... it's in high def
<0> only thing other than anime that I watch now is '24'
<7> I know a kiwi
<4> <beavis>heh heh heh.... he said "penal"</beavis>
<9> Ka-bar: heh
<0> Ka-bar: -_-;
<9> I miss BEavis and butthead
<3> figc_: is he a small, flightless bird that runs around eating insects in the forest at night?
<10> got the T2: Extreme DVD at Walmart for $7.50 the other day
<7> cynic...er no....he's a native new zealander.... ;-)
<9> Cynic: I think I had one of those for dinner tonight
<0> they call those Maori, no?
<11> rolls over and plays dead. stupid linux
<11> ooooh, 8======8 !!
<3> i could go on a long .nz history rant, but i can't be bothered
<0> you people are very bored, aren't you? :P
