Comments:
<0> Hence, builders charge lots of $$ for it.
<1> whyzzie: whatever I do, I'll do myself
<0> Tamahome: they don't use hammers. They use nailguns that run on .22 blanks.
<1> whyzzie: except a chain-link fence.
<0> siglite: then you've no ****er to sue when it falls on someone.
<1> I'd contract out chain-link.
<2> how can I change the ownership of a directory ?
<1> wp99: man chown
<2> cool :)
<1> chain link is so damned ugly though.
<3> was watching Holmes on Homes earlier
<3> he was redoing a bathroom
<0> siglite: s'cheap but no?
<1> chain link's ugly, wood slat fencing is attractive, but osbcures visibility too much, and is high maintenance
<4> so get some CO2 lasers and instead of a fence, just burn anything that crosses the property line ;)
<5> hi all
<3> HAHAHAHAHAHAH
<3> Liandrin++
<5> dos anyine knows how to use a hotplug floppy drive of a thinkpad
<6> How to "use" one? Put the disk in the drive and mount it.
<6> Same as any other removable disk.
<6> I don't know of any "hotplug" floppies for TP's other than USB ones.
<4> one imagines he *meant* to ask, "How do I get Linux to recognize my ThinkPad's hot-plug floppy drive after hot-plugging it?"
<5> i'm using knoppix , not installed yet on my laptop
<4> I do
<5> so i'm booting from the cd drive
<6> Liandrin: I wouldn't call IBM's external ones hotpluggable.
<4> but I never ran Linux on that laptop, so I have no idea
<4> mwilson, I'm not talking about external ones
<5> its not an external drive
<6> The ultrabay drive isn't any more hotpluggable. It's the same interface.
<4> same as what?
<5> you take out the cd drive and replace it with the flopy drive
<6> Sphinx: Yes, but you don't do that while the machine is on.
<4> I could do it in 1998
<5> <6> : thats what i wanna do , i wanna use both , cd drive and floppy one linux is runing
<6> Apparently Liandrin knows how to do IDE hotplug on a TP. I don't.
<3> blah, Stinkpads
<3> why is he always so pissy?
<4> I was using it under Windows 98
<4> he's a grumpy old man ;)
<3> he think the world hates him or something?
<4> Sphinx, I can't help you
<3> anyways. *hugs Liandrin*
<4> Sphinx, the last time I used a Thinkpad with an Ultrabay was nearly a decade ago, and under the wrong operating system
<4> Sphinx, I know nothing about doing it with Linux
<4> Sphinx, although I think the fact that you're running from CD will prevent you from being able to hot-swap
<0> Sphinx: my colleague has one. He swears that it only works properly if you boot with the device in, under linux *and* windows.
<4> Sphinx, since the CD-ROM is in use
<5> yeh , but i its insteled whats the way to hotswap
<4> and it's entirely possible that my memory is wrong and I'm full of **** and I couldn't really hot-swap it at all
<5> i'll install it on my HD
<3> if it's really that old enough a stinkpad, you can prolly Google it
<3> ISTR a page called Linux on Laptops
<7> i'm loking for another distro of linux, i've used Slackware, and SuSE and havn't found one that i've liked yet.. any recommendations? I generally program
<3> itrebal: for a developer? Debian
<7> Tamahome: if i wernt a developer?
<3> hmmm, RH
<7> ok
<0> Tamahome: note RH is no longer free. You mean Fedora Core Pre-Release junkyard?
<3> what languages do you program in?
<3> whyzzie: so it's not free? big whoop
<3> OS X isn't free, I use that
<7> PHP, and am int he process of learning C, and Perl
<3> XP isn't free, I use that
<0> Tamahome: I didn't mean it *had* to be free, but RH enterprise ain't downloadable any more no?
<3> probably not
<3> but isn't enterprise overkill for a workstation?
<8> Yeah, thats why RH has a WS version too
<7> hehe
<3> itrebal: please note that we all think Slack is without a doubt the *WORST* distro of Linux
<0> PolarWolf: but it's still not free is it?
<0> Tamahome: I second that
<8> whyzzie: You can download a developer version, iirc
<7> Tamahome: thats why i want to switch
<0> PolarWolf: interesting.
<8> I dunno, is it?
<8> CentOS works too
<3> I'm kinda out of the loop nowadays
<3> I moved over to the dark side
<3> (C# developer on XP)
<3> well, up and coming anyways... still haven't had a job offer :\
<8> Tamahome: Indeed you have. But its not like we saw it coming.
<3> PW: heh
<9> Tamahome: Well, welcome to the club
<3> wlfy: thanks, I think.
<9> Tamahome: I expect I'll be coding on a .net project within 18 months myself
<3> wlfy: I really like .NET
<3> it's what Java should have been
<9> Tamahome: I don't, but hey ;)
<3> *shrug*
<3> uncle Pim :)
<9> Pim!
<3> guess he's AFK
<0> Tamahome: I can't agree, but.
<3> whyzzie: l8rz
<10> does someone knows how to make an dc++ hub on linux ? please pr
<10> prv
<3> we don't privmsg in here
<10> right
<8> On that thought, what do we do in here?
<3> verbal *********ion
<11> Meh.
<12> mehmeme
<3> heh
<3> wow. they're up to R6 already
<13> been for a while now
<3> I'm *really* out of the loop
<13> eh, do you bsd much?
<13> i sure as hell dont. :)
<3> I used to
<3> had FBSD 4.7 for about 6 months
<12> how many decadesz ago was that?
<8> some people have a hard time making up their mind about which side of the fence they wanna play
<13> dont suppose anyone here has a PSP
<3> not I.
<14> good afternoon :)
<12> I have PSP9
<3> Derek :)
<14> heya sean :)
<11> I've never used FreeBSD. Never. The latest release 6 came on this month's Linux Format magazine DVD, so, *shrug*
<3> wild.
<14> I found out I have an old paycheck of $316 dated 12/2003 sitting in topeka :)
<12> the irony of a BSD release on a Linux magazine... :)
<11> They even have 4 pages devoted to the BSD's
<3> Derek: you still in .KS?
<14> I am
<3> ah
<13> the closest thing i have to a bsd box is m0n0wall. heh
<11> smsie: This is Linux FOrmat. It's Lame, but from time to time it does have some interesting stuff.
<14> I currently work in MO but live in KS
<3> how long a commute is that?
<13> Tron: that and the dvd's are generally packed with tons of stuff.
<12> Tron: I must have missed that issue :)
<14> it's between 20-45 minutes
<11> smsie: This month's
<14> depending on rush hour traffic
<12> D-side: stuff I can download
<14> it's 25 miles one-way
<3> hell, I don't read magazines anymore... sometimes I pick up the Xbox one for the disc pack-in
<14> would 25 miles be around 35-40 km?
<3> not sure... not good at imperial-metric conversions
<14> ah, it's 41.6 km
<12> cappicard: ask google
<14> 0.6 mile = 1 km
<14> oh, it's 40.2 km.
<14> I'm used to that conversion equation
<3> Derek: gonna watch the Superbowl?
