Comments:
<0> and then vnc into it.
<1> RelDrgn: Nope.
<2> yellowblum: mpg123 or mpg321
<3> yellowblum: good for you, don't try and play anything much above 256kbit
<4> whyzzyrd: Well, let's hope this doesn't.
<1> NineVolt: You're right, it won't. Except that if I have a BNC on my home system, it WILL continue to log. Duh. I think you're missing the entire point
<5> <2> dunno
<1> K_F: I am NOT going to use a console IRC client.
<4> Falchion: Boooooo
<5> the question is, wich version of linux should i use ?
<1> heh
<3> Falchion: using a console irc client on your home system will log too ;-P
<0> Falchion : and why wouldn't mirc?
<0> mirc logs.
<5> i dont know anything about linux
<0> i think -YOU-'re missing the entire point.
<2> yellowblum: i say look at those apps...
<6> Falchion: why not? irssi is great
<4> yellowblum: I'd say damn small linux
<1> whyzzyrd: Sure it would, except i am NOT going to use a console ****ing client. If I wanted to use a console, I wouldn't have bought a mac :P
<3> Bjprn-: hush.
<0> you can log to files in mirc, you can increase your channel buffers to log in memory...
<0> i don't see the problem.
<5> <4> yeah.. i got no other choice
<7> wow, its been almost a decade since I used it, I forgot. Psybnc ;)
<1> NineVolt: WTF would I want to switch my IRC client when I am happy with what I am using?
<3> yellowblum: Your challenge with many of the latest distros will be RAM. Damn Small Linux is a good start.
<0> apparently you're not happy if you're trying to replace it.
<1> RelDrgn: Psybnc is bloated.
<3> yellowblum: I'm not sure if a 2.4-based debian sarge install would even boot.
<5> lol
<5> there actually is a version called dmn small
<6> Falchion: I even use irssi as my IM-client :)
<2> http://common.ziffdavisinternet.com/util_get_image/13/0,1425,sz=1&i=130047,00.jpg
<5> lol
<2> Behold the 100$ laptop... fugly as hell
<3> yellowblum: we wouldn't have told you there was if there wasn't.
<8> ohhhhhhhhhhhh, I see the problem
<8> Falchion bought a mac.
<9> what would be the best distro choice on a norma pc?
<8> that explains everything.
<0> DirtyJayx : windows
<8> DirtyJayx: www.distrowatch.com
<2> NineVolt: don't swear
<1> K_F: My condolences.
<0> :'(
<3> DirtyJayx: just pick one you like fron distrowatch, preferably one that's popular.
<6> Falchion: I don't say the same :)
<0> you might as well be recommending bsd.
<1> K_F: You don't have to.
<0> he did say normal pc. or at least i think that's what he was trying to say.
<0> a desktop os comes to mind.
<9> i did and that mean guy RelDrgn said it isnt good.
<9> :(
<0> like windows.
<7> hm, actuall freshmeat says there is one called bnc ;) http://gotbnc.com/
<10> there is the bnc one
<3> DirtyJayx: Which distro did you pick?
<10> and get that movie i told you about
<10> a real work of art
<9> rh9
<10> rh9 is weak
<10> :))
<7> rh9 is *old* is the problem
<5> dmn smll linux works with hercules monitor ?
<3> rh9 can't possibly be in the list of latest distros?
<3> yellowblum: hercules is VGA or CGA attach?
<9> number 29! :s
<7> Falchion: anyway if you're not going to like what we suggest, read http://freshmeat.net/search/?q=irc+proxy§ion=projects&Go.x=0&Go.y=0 for yourself ;P
<9> well i ll just try mandriva
<5> <3>idk
<3> yellowblum: ahh. Well given it's only 50M, why not just d/l it and give it a shot. This machine have a cd drive?
<1> RelDrgn: Well, since everyone gave answers that had absolutely nothing to do with what I asked, I already am searching on my own, as I had been doing before I asked :P
<1> I asked for a recommendation for a BNC, not "what should I use instead of a BNC". heh
<7> Falchion: welcome to #linux, enjoy your stay ;P
<2> Falchion: http://www.tubcat.com/
<5> <3> not yet.. anyway, ill try with damn small linux
<5> thanks a lot !
<1> RelDrgn: Bah, I've been here years, remember? I'm well aware of what to expect, which is why I don't get annoyed ;)
<2> Falchion: I'm sure it bounces
<11> BAH
<1> Bjprn-: I've seen that cat before.
<12> Hi im gonna dualboot windows and linux, do I need to give any special options in the lilo conf for booting windows xp partitions?
<2> Falchion: And your eyes still work?
<2> Falchion: Immedeatly when i saw that page i wanted to rip out my eyes..
<1> Bjprn-: Well, i saw the pic on another site. That one IS fugly.
<11> I really HATE when people ask open ended questions.
<1> Bjprn-: But that's what happens when a 12 year old makes a site.
<11> oh yeah, just like $clubies do in this channel. :|
<1> kosmo: Oh, like...?
<1> ;)
<11> patrik: I bet you dollars to a donuthole that this is thoroughly covered in documentation.
<12> kosmo, That was a yes/no question
<7> patrik: not really, no.
<11> patrik: O_o
<3> patrik: I suggest you moderate your tone
<3> patrik: The answer you are seeking is well covered, in documentation.
<12> It's just that I think I had trouble booting winxp with lilo before. I just wanted to know if it's possible or not
<13> it is
<12> ok thanks
<3> patrik: It's possible.
<3> ok
<7> patrik: man lilo.conf . examples are at the top
<3> RelDrgn: what a cluebie
<14> my good lord i'm bored out of my mind.
<14> my boss wants me to call sonicwall to get a quote on one of their products, but i'm stalling.
<3> D-side: do what I'm doing. savour an 18 year old.
<14> my reasoning is clear: "**** sonicwall"
<3> what's sonicwall sell?
<14> whyzzyrd: I don't know that I can get away with that here.
<14> bad firewalls.
<14> probably not as bad as watchguard, but fairly terrible nonetheless
<15> fglrx: version magic 2.6.16 PENTIUMM gcc-4.1 should be 2.6.16 PENTIUMM gcc-4.0 <--- This is the error message being generated when I try to install the kernel module for the ATI proprietary drivers for my laptop. I have no idea what it means by magic version, anyone have any ideas?
<3> D-side: why can't you use linux+iptables in a failover pair?
<3> duplex: your compiler is newer than the one that ATI used, so you're screwed.
<3> duplex: Welcome to the ****ty world of binary drivers
<3> duplex: Oh, and remember never to buy an ATI card again.
<11> eww.
<11> sonicwall == much badness
<15> whyzzyrd: So in other words, if I want to get this to work, I have to download 4.0 instead of 4.1 and link gcc to it?
<7> duplex: see the gcc-4.1 and gcc-4.0? Thats the magic. downgrade to gcc-4.0. Or try rebuilding your kernel with -4.1
<15> whyzzyrd: Not my choice, trust me. This is a company laptop they gave me.
<15> whyzzyrd: I would have preferred nvidia anyday.
<3> RelDrgn: Does it not mean that the ATI binary blob is compiled under 4.0, and the kernel under 4.1?
<7> whyzzyrd: if its like nvidia, the binary blob doesn't care
<7> the "glue" that gets compile to stick the binary blob to the kerenl deals with all that, but the glue and the kernel have to match
<3> RelDrgn: hmm. maybe. I never got much mileage from the ATI driver, because I couldn't make it and the Nvidia one co-exist
<7> you had both an ati card and an nvidia card plugged in together, and your computer didn't annihilate itself and everything within a few miles radius? Impressive ;)
<15> I tried linking gcc to gcc-4.0 and retried it, same problem. I guess I'll have to recompile my kernel with gcc 4.0 if I want to get this to actually work.
<16> can I use wget or anything other, to just visit a list or urls? not download files
<15> Damn ATI.
<3> RelDrgn: I have one at work with a Quadro4-900XGL and a Radeon 9250.
<15> Btw, why is ATI so scared of releasing open source drivers anyways?
<3> duplex: They say it's to protect how their hardware works
<3> duplex: but in reality, it's because they don't understand open source.
<15> Figures.
<17> nah, it's because they don't think the market is worth pursuing
<17> nvisia does
<15> Company gave me a latitude d810 and told me I could throw linux on it. I've never had the pain of dealing with ATI before now, always just used nvidia.
<17> the ati drivers ******
<7> and they dont release open source drivers either ;P
<6> and I think you should use your consumer power and actually purchase nvidia..
<17> yeah, but they DO release GOOD drivers
<17> the AIT drivers universally **** on Linux
<17> ATI even
<6> not entirely accurate, for 2d you have decent drivers
