| 06:59:37 PM | pyrosrock | no it stoped again :(
|
| 06:59:47 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Fedora admits Wayland, a project they are involved in, would make a good X server when it is developed enough to be viable. Ubuntu announced they are using Wayland, as if they'll have it tomorrow.
|
| 06:59:49 PM | Gadwil | GWG, I would like to see it as a " Version " and then move into the main tree. Since I am almost 100% positive switching will break things... a lot of things.
|
| 06:59:53 PM | lanceman | I don't have sound.
|
| 07:00:12 PM | mmdmurphy | Here we go
|
| 07:00:21 PM | agamotto | Hallo, all
|
| 07:00:21 PM | pyrosrock | ok i got sound
|
| 07:00:30 PM | Gadwil | True GWG, and I think that is the reason so much fuss is going around. But hopefully Canonical will pitch in too, and not try to control the project.
|
| 07:00:32 PM | lanceman | There's the sound.
|
| 07:00:33 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Gadwil: Fedora will have it as an optional install in 15, most likely. They had to delay systemd, which was supposed to be in 14, because it wasn't ready
|
| 07:00:38 PM | Cory` | The Show has began. Please keep ALL hands and feet inside the ride at all times.
|
| 07:00:50 PM | Wreken | Hi all !
|
| 07:00:55 PM | Gadwil | GWG, When they get that, I will certainly give it a shot.
|
| 07:00:57 PM | _Jot_ | I remember that Eric, that was when he still shaved
|
| 07:00:58 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | pyrosrock: Ubuntu/Canonical hasn't been pitching in much lately. They've been forking internally.
|
| 07:01:16 PM | mindlord | I too anticipate Wayland will be an improvemnt overall, but will have growing pains.
|
| 07:01:24 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | mindlord: Agreed
|
| 07:01:51 PM | _Jot_ | RobbieF, can I also watch the show later within a year, or do I really have to wait a year?
|
| 07:02:40 PM | lanceman | They sound like the Buffalo Bills of hockey.
|
| 07:02:47 PM | _Jot_ | hi Johannes, is that a promise?
|
| 07:02:50 PM | Gadwil | My thing is, Wayland is still under HEAVY dev. Why start announcing things? Wait for it to mature a bit more before announcing things. Announce support or something, not a gaurenteed switch.
|
| 07:02:59 PM | GregInTexas | oooo hilary
|
| 07:03:11 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Gadwil: That is what I object to in Ubuntu.
|
| 07:03:37 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Maybe John's wife is dressing him.
|
| 07:03:59 PM | Gadwil | I will try to set up a Arch system with Wayland to test and help debug.
|
| 07:04:31 PM | mindlord | Ubuntu is an agressive distro, and that's part of what makes it attractive to people.
|
| 07:04:33 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Hillary, so far, I've watched/listened to the show from a pizzeria, a deli, a warehouse club....
|
| 07:04:35 PM | Gadwil | Our recent topic is the first news item... sigh.
|
| 07:04:54 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Gadwil: yes.
|
| 07:05:07 PM | agamotto | I will get excited (maybe) when Myth .24 gets added into the 'normal' version of Mythbuntu
|
| 07:05:14 PM | Gadwil | mindlord, But Ubuntu also likes to keep updates back to keep a more stable system. Sort of Contradictory to announce a massive change like that so far from point of happening.
|
| 07:05:15 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | I wanted to submit some news stories on Amazon and Netflix
|
| 07:05:21 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | agamotto: I have .24
|
| 07:05:49 PM | G_dog | hi all
|
| 07:06:00 PM | Wreken | Is it another Bushmills day?.... if so, I want some
|
| 07:06:05 PM | pyrosrock | RobbieF EricKidd i want to rebuild my computer and have 2 caviar black SATA3 1tb drives aswell as 2 normal 1tb drives and a 1.5tb drive what do u think is the best way to configure ther system for maxuim performence to dual boot win7 and ubuntu?
|
| 07:06:11 PM | Gadwil | EricKidd, I get access to Robbie in the chatroom during the week, no need for email.
|
| 07:06:46 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | I have a question for RobbieF.
|
| 07:07:47 PM | agamotto | GadgetWisdomGuru, How has it been so far?
|
| 07:08:13 PM | _Jot_ | EricKidd, it's called 8 inch
|
| 07:08:15 PM | sprintcowboy | sneker net
|
| 07:08:16 PM | Gadwil | HAH! that is so weak.
|
| 07:08:40 PM | Gadwil | 2?! Wow, I am so young only needing a CD with an occasional Floppy.
|
| 07:08:41 PM | GregInTexas | what! they had floppies?
|
| 07:08:44 PM | Gadwil | Now it is all flash.
|
| 07:08:45 PM | _Jot_ | EricKidd, you could use another but you could use 1 too
|
| 07:08:50 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Dear RobbieF: For the longest time, I have been troubleshooting some odd errors in my hard drives that came to a head when I tried to add yet another drive to the system. After a lot of head scratching, I finally came up with a theory and opted to replace the 430w power supply to 650w, and the problems went away. Apparently I failed to account for my power needs. How can I adequately calculate how much power I need?
|
| 07:08:55 PM | SammySez | those were the good old days - back when stuff worked - simple
|
| 07:08:57 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | agamotto: Great.
|
| 07:09:01 PM | EricKidd | thanks jot! Take a hike, Gadwil!
|
| 07:09:02 PM | Gadwil | GWG, I think that is close to the flood limits.
|
| 07:09:04 PM | agamotto | Hell, even with my Amiga 500, I had 3 floppies, just to avoid swapping so much
|
| 07:09:15 PM | GregInTexas | lol ... I wrote the bdos in order to interface the floppy ...
|
| 07:09:19 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Gadwil: Flood limits?
|
| 07:09:23 PM | agamotto | GadgetWisdomGuru, Under 10.04 or 10.10
|
| 07:09:38 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | I just threw out my Compute's Gazette floppies from 1984
|
| 07:09:47 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | agamotto: I'm a Fedora user
|
| 07:09:55 PM | Gadwil | GWG, Yea. that was a lot of text. Or is flooding by number of Lines per second, not amount of text?
|
| 07:09:59 PM | SammySez | I am so sick of Windows, there are moments I almost silently scream during the day
|
| 07:10:08 PM | GregInTexas | by 1984 I was on my 3rd PC/XT
|
| 07:10:09 PM | agamotto | GadgetWisdomGuru, Ahhh, using MythDora?
|
| 07:10:17 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Gadwil, it's a question
|
| 07:10:25 PM | Gadwil | Yea, but a massive one.
|
| 07:10:30 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Agamotto: I started out installing it from scratch, and I still do
|
| 07:10:34 PM | agamotto | SammySez, Just go ahead and do it. most people will understand...
|
| 07:10:39 PM | SammySez | heh
|
| 07:10:45 PM | agamotto | GadgetWisdomGuru, Ehhh, I will wait
|
| 07:10:53 PM | Gadwil | GWG, There is a power calculator.
|
| 07:11:09 PM | Gadwil | http://extreme.outervision.com/psucalculatorlite.jsp
|
| 07:11:10 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Gadwil, I know. But I've never gotten good results from power calculators
|
| 07:11:31 PM | Gadwil | GWG, This one has always gone right by me. But that is limited use.
|
| 07:11:41 PM | _Jot_ | that's because it can't read the labels off of the parts, which you should do and add it together if you want to know how much something uses and waht you need
|
| 07:11:48 PM | Ledzep | I like Eneloop batteries.
|
| 07:12:10 PM | SammySez | Windows 2000 was the last OS from Microsoft that I liked, like I felt I had control over. There are so many unneccessary layers to all Windows versions today. It isn't any fun to work with anymore.
|
| 07:12:51 PM | agamotto | I collect mine in a coin bag, and take them to a local retailer that recycles them...
|
| 07:13:22 PM | agamotto | Jason's cats are trying to share dinner with me
|
| 07:13:45 PM | Gadwil | I think Eric is going for a Wizard look for Halloween next year.
|
| 07:13:59 PM | _Jot_ | without carbon in the air, nature will die
|
| 07:14:08 PM | _Jot_ | so carbon neutrality is a bit nonsense
|
| 07:14:31 PM | GregInTexas | I agree _Jot_
|
| 07:14:40 PM | agamotto | _Jot_, It is only used in the term of human impact on the system... the goal being to leave life at a zero sum balance, in theory.
|
| 07:14:44 PM | SammySez | _Jot_ it is a LOT of non-sense, an idiot's religion really
|
| 07:14:57 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | I had to step away for a second. Did I miss anything?
|
| 07:15:06 PM | _Jot_ | RobbieF, planet Calypso was ont he front page of yahoo, meaning 24/7 hundreds of people coming in, that's why I wasn't on the planet a lot hehe
|
| 07:15:08 PM | G_dog | haha
|
| 07:15:14 PM | agamotto | Wise Eric, the Saltpepper?
|
| 07:15:44 PM | Cory` | I love IE
|
| 07:15:55 PM | lanceman | I'm using Samba to share files with my Windows box. Works great.
|
| 07:16:05 PM | Knysliux001 | who else here uses unRaid?
|
| 07:16:19 PM | agamotto | S?mba, s?, s?mba s?mba s?
|
| 07:16:38 PM | Knysliux001 | I find samba to be slow under Linux
|
| 07:16:56 PM | agamotto | For the average person, Samba is fine
|
| 07:16:59 PM | SammySez | SMB is nice and simple :)
|
| 07:17:10 PM | Gadwil | I found Samba to be good in Gnome, but a pain in the ( you know ) in KDE.
|
| 07:17:21 PM | SammySez | <-- is an average person (maybe even slightly below)
|
| 07:17:32 PM | agamotto | Anyone hear about some new bit of code going into the kernel that is supposed to do wonders with how desktops respond to user input or something?
|
| 07:17:51 PM | whazup | @RobbieF What is your experience with Vmware and Ubuntu? thanks for a great show:)
|
| 07:17:53 PM | Gadwil | agamotto, We were talking about that just before the show.
|
| 07:18:10 PM | Gadwil | whazup, What do you want to know of VMWare?
|
| 07:18:20 PM | agamotto | Fill me in, please. Thanks to these two kitties, I got off to a late start
|
| 07:18:53 PM | Gadwil | agamotto, Word on the street is. The code helps processes during High-loads. I believe only on Multi-core CPUs.
|
| 07:19:13 PM | agamotto | Hmmm, so would improve things with stuff like Google Earth, I take it?
|
| 07:19:21 PM | Gadwil | " mindlord> There's a patch the scheduler that is supposed to greatly improve responsiveness during high cpu loads. So far the results have been very good. "
|
| 07:19:54 PM | agamotto | Hmm, perhaps the next LTS will have some nice things to look forward to!
|
| 07:19:55 PM | SammySez | if nfs is anything like dfs, I'll stick with SMB and SSH/SFTP thank you very much :)
|
| 07:19:55 PM | Gadwil | agamotto, If the CPU was being used a lot. Since it is Kernel level, I doubt it has anything to do with what software is in use.
|
| 07:20:09 PM | mindlord | Gadwil , it's helpful even on single core systems because it simplifies the scheduling.
|
| 07:20:17 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | I have another question that occurred to me.
|
| 07:20:18 PM | agamotto | bonus
|
| 07:20:25 PM | Gadwil | Oh ok Mindlord. I still havn't read the Phoronix article.
|
| 07:20:30 PM | Knysliux001 | SammySez: what is dfs?
|
| 07:20:36 PM | Gadwil | But still, only ~200 lines? Amazing for that kind of tech.
|
| 07:20:46 PM | SammySez | Distributed File System (Windoze)
|
| 07:20:49 PM | agamotto | Must be assembly.... heeheh
|
| 07:21:33 PM | SammySez | I finally figured out how to create playlists using the SlideShow feature in Pogo - go figure.
|
| 07:21:46 PM | agamotto | Is that good?
|
| 07:22:11 PM | EricKidd | That's very good, agamotto!!
|
| 07:22:50 PM | Gadwil | Anyone know a way to set up DNS in Ubuntu or OpenSUSE? Or what packages could be used? I would prefer a GUI app for the class if possible.
|
| 07:22:55 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | agamotto: What I'm concerned about is a buildup of chroniton particles in the dilithium chamber. I fear if we engage the transporters, than a power surge might affect the pattern buffer
|
| 07:24:09 PM | agamotto | Nae!!!! No my wee bairns!!!!!!!
|
| 07:24:12 PM | SammySez | does anyone else have an issue with the my.pogoplug.com web interface where as the mouse gets stuck in this sort of click-down state and tries to multi-select everything by simply mousing over files?
|
| 07:24:12 PM | Gadwil | We all know who really paid attention to Star Trek....
|
| 07:24:53 PM | Gadwil | I can see Hillary's tiny photo in BSP on Robbie's monitor.
|
| 07:24:54 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Gadwil: Who is the bigger Star Trek fan, the guy who knows his Trek lore, or the guy who owns a Starfleet uniform?
|
| 07:24:55 PM | agamotto | Hillary: head spinning yet?
|
| 07:24:59 PM | Hillary | bahaha
|
| 07:25:02 PM | agamotto | Lore
|
| 07:25:05 PM | Gadwil | GWG, Knows the lore.
|
| 07:25:13 PM | agamotto | Clothing can be replicated.....
|
| 07:25:21 PM | spectre1055 | What's up everyone!!!
|
| 07:25:33 PM | _Jot_ | Hillary, it's a bed and breakfast, but don't fall asleep just yet, even though it is so tempting
|
| 07:25:38 PM | EricKidd | Hil... wake up!
|
| 07:26:00 PM | Hillary | i'm awake...mostly. but wish i had some brekkie. or a scotch mint.\
|
| 07:26:16 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Hillary, what's a brekkie?
|
| 07:26:23 PM | agamotto | breakfast
|
| 07:26:37 PM | Gadwil | anyone elses Justin.tv stuttering?
|
| 07:26:38 PM | GregInTexas | audio cutting out ...
|
| 07:26:46 PM | Knysliux001 | And so we learn a new word everyday =)
|
| 07:26:48 PM | lanceman | Mine is
|
| 07:26:51 PM | agamotto | Although, I have to wonder where she is that she wants brekkie at 19:30.....
|
| 07:26:51 PM | Knysliux001 | me too
|
| 07:27:02 PM | Ledzep | here too but not chronic
|
| 07:27:02 PM | spectre1055 | My video is cutting out a bit.
|
| 07:27:03 PM | agamotto | I am on WMS, fine here
|
| 07:27:17 PM | Gadwil | agamotto, it is a Justin.TV issue.
|
| 07:27:22 PM | Gadwil | Seems to have resolved itself.
|
| 07:27:39 PM | G_dog | wms?
|
| 07:27:47 PM | Ledzep | hiccup
|
| 07:28:11 PM | agamotto | Low-res version for mobiles and slow connections... works better for me than the others, and I am on a 10Mbps connection tonight
|
| 07:28:17 PM | Gadwil | G_dog, it is a super low-quality feed. Straight from Robbie I believe.
|
| 07:28:27 PM | SammySez | cat5.tv/pogoplug
|
| 07:28:33 PM | SammySez | ?
|
| 07:28:33 PM | G_dog | ok thats
|
| 07:28:43 PM | G_dog | grr thanz
|
| 07:28:47 PM | SammySez | missed the URL
|
| 07:28:48 PM | Ledzep | do they ship to Canada
|
| 07:28:54 PM | _Jot_ | www.cat5.tv/pogplug
|
| 07:28:57 PM | _Jot_ | woops
|
| 07:28:57 PM | agamotto | I would say 320x200 or something similar... enough to get most of the idea across
|
| 07:29:00 PM | SammySez | thx
|
| 07:29:01 PM | _Jot_ | www.cat5.tv/pogoplug
|
| 07:29:21 PM | _Jot_ | sometimes when many people are using it, you will only see a black bar, and no content yet
|
| 07:29:40 PM | agamotto | I DO think it is funny that WMS version does sound like old analog telly at times, including hum sounds
|
| 07:29:59 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | EricKidd: Will you get to my question today?
|
| 07:30:20 PM | SammySez | dang it - and I was just ready to jump ship to Fedora.
|
| 07:30:23 PM | lanceman | Agamotto is it in black and white too?
|
| 07:30:29 PM | Gadwil | "Negligable" Massive package breakiage is negligable?
|
| 07:30:30 PM | feedpixel | regards to all of you, and robbie
|
| 07:30:52 PM | Gadwil | SammySez, Don't worry, this will be years in the future.
|
| 07:30:55 PM | SammySez | how is it spelled? wailin'?
|
| 07:31:05 PM | Gadwil | Wayland
|
| 07:31:09 PM | SammySez | thx\
|
| 07:31:22 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | SammySez: Fedora won't do anything rash
|
| 07:31:46 PM | EricKidd | gwg...which question? the one about brekkie or trekkie or what?
|
| 07:31:58 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Dear RobbieF: For the longest time, I have been troubleshooting some odd errors in my hard drives that came to a head when I tried to add yet another drive to the system. After a lot of head scratching, I finally came up with a theory and opted to replace the 430w power supply to 650w, and the problems went away. Apparently I failed to account for my power needs. How can I adequately calculate how much power I need?
|
| 07:32:01 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | EricKidd: That one
|
| 07:32:39 PM | _Jot_ | GWG, I bet Robbie will show another online calculator, or tell you to read the labels and add it together yourself
|
| 07:32:41 PM | Knysliux001 | GadgetWisdomGuru: hard disks use more power when powering up
|
| 07:33:01 PM | Wreken | My audio is a bit garbeled,, Anyone else?
|
| 07:33:02 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Knysliux001: That is why power saving functions bite me in the rear.
|
| 07:33:19 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | _Jot_: I was hoping for some better software diagnostic tools.
|
| 07:33:34 PM | _Jot_ | Wreken, Hillary is on a location with low bandwidth, that is why it sounds a bit garbled
|
| 07:33:36 PM | lanceman | Me to Wreken. It's because she's on Skype. Low bandwidth.
|
| 07:33:48 PM | Knysliux001 | it's not that easy
|
| 07:33:53 PM | Wreken | ok...np
|
| 07:34:03 PM | EricKidd | GWG, I'll try to pose that question at the earliest opportunity.
|
| 07:34:31 PM | _Jot_ | GWG, such things don't really exist, because there is no active power-measuring going on when a computer is powered on
|
| 07:34:35 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | EricKidd: No rush. I just would hate to type that again
|
| 07:34:51 PM | _Jot_ | GWG, closest you can get is use one of those watt-meters and plug the computer in it
|
| 07:35:01 PM | Knysliux001 | there are a lot of hardware manufacturers with different ways to "measure" it for you
|
| 07:35:06 PM | Gadwil | Jot, you could get a voltage meter to see how much power is being drawn by the PSU from the outlet, that will tell you how much you are using.
|
| 07:35:20 PM | SammySez | BMW obviously does not run on Windows or Sync
|
| 07:35:23 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Gadwil: I think that is what _Jot_ meant.
|
| 07:35:35 PM | Knysliux001 | Wattage used is not equal to wattage supplied
|
| 07:35:39 PM | Gadwil | OH, a couple seconds off.
|
| 07:35:59 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | I'll watch Category 5 on my Android device, but I'll forego the makeup application
|
| 07:36:01 PM | SammySez | It's Satch!
|
| 07:36:02 PM | Gadwil | True since it needs to be converted from AC to DC, but still can give an estimate.
|
| 07:36:12 PM | Wreken | oh Noooooooo,,,,,,, help. I scared!
|
| 07:36:42 PM | Gadwil | Buzzing sound.
|
| 07:36:47 PM | _Jot_ | Such an estimate will help because it should say on the supply how much it can consume, and if it is doing that, it is possible it is at or above the max it can supply
|
| 07:36:47 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | I'm getting dead air and coughing
|
| 07:36:49 PM | Gadwil | very small though.
|
| 07:36:51 PM | Knysliux001 | starnge sound
|
| 07:36:58 PM | mmdmurphy | Its the hair clippers
|
| 07:37:20 PM | SammySez | I was wondering what that little dot on Robbie's forehead was, when I realized it was a mustard stain on my monitor
|
| 07:37:24 PM | Ledzep | Does it cost a lot to play Planet Calypso
|
| 07:37:44 PM | agamotto | No, it can be totally free to play, but it is something like a 4Gb install
|
| 07:37:57 PM | lanceman | Sammysez, how did you get mustard on your monitor. Food fight?
|
| 07:38:03 PM | Gadwil | SammySez, you don't need an excuse to rub robbie's head, it just may do better in person.
|
| 07:38:04 PM | _Jot_ | SammySez, once the baby is born, such stains could come on Robbies head if he moves too close to the baby, but good idea to make sure your monitor is clean
|
| 07:38:27 PM | SammySez | I think one of her cats did it
|
| 07:38:32 PM | agamotto | _Jot_, Yah, babies are very good at making stains
|
| 07:38:54 PM | _Jot_ | Ledzep, it is free to download and play, some ingame activities do cost ingame currency, but you can work on activities in game to earn it, without depositing
|
| 07:39:32 PM | Ledzep | ty
|
| 07:39:35 PM | agamotto | I would just like to see newer video cards that don't require 200-400 watts alone
|
| 07:39:43 PM | _Jot_ | Ledzep, when you log in for the first time, you will arrive at the gateway, where you will find NPCs (non player characters) in the building that can help you try out some of these activities for free so you won't waste money trying something you dont'like
|
| 07:39:51 PM | Knowell | http://extreme.outervision.com/psucalculatorlite.jsp
|
| 07:39:57 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | 150W, not counting the SSD
|
| 07:40:15 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | It's an Antec
|
| 07:40:24 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | I like Antec
|
| 07:40:25 PM | agamotto | It will turn the mobo on when it reaches, VMS, not Peak
|
| 07:40:26 PM | _Jot_ | LedZep, often you will also find community advisers there whcih are actual players who are there to help new arrivals as well, but if you pay attention, it isn't really needed
|
| 07:40:52 PM | _Jot_ | LedZep, and if you want to read about how to play before, go to http://rp.apachenet.de and click on the storage on the left and click EU guide and read that

| 07:40:52 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Specifically, an Antec Earthwatts 80-Plus model
|
| 07:41:04 PM | Ledzep | I think I'll give it a try ..
|
| 07:41:44 PM | agamotto | I do quite well with 450
|
| 07:42:06 PM | _Jot_ | LedZep, it can be a big download, about 4GB, so that's a good thing to know in advance, because the gameresources will reside on your computer
|
| 07:42:17 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | It's a headless server
|
| 07:42:21 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | No video card needed
|
| 07:42:37 PM | Gadwil | I CAN'T play! Why do you do this to me?
|
| 07:42:42 PM | agamotto | Athlon II something, mobo, GeForce 8400GS, hd, dvd burner... runs quite well
|
| 07:42:58 PM | agamotto | GadgetWisdomGuru, even better
|
| 07:43:08 PM | _Jot_ | If you want to join Robbies society, you will find one in Port Atlantis in the society terminal, and if you end up in Tresure Island City, there is one in the trade center
|
| 07:43:09 PM | lanceman | Gadwil, why can't you play??
|
| 07:43:19 PM | ajamison5579 | Robbief can you buy your own planets in Planet Calypso yet?
|
| 07:43:19 PM | Gadwil | lanceman, GPU sucks.
|
| 07:43:34 PM | _Jot_ | I mean society building in PA by the way :)
|
| 07:43:34 PM | agamotto | Didn't someone sell a moon recently?
|
| 07:43:47 PM | Knowell | And ME! Knowell :D
|
| 07:44:00 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | The computer has a 1.5TB, 2TB, 1TB, 750GB, 500GB, and a 30GB SSD
|
| 07:44:04 PM | SammySez | I guess I have way too much going on IRL to even try games like that - heh.
|
| 07:44:06 PM | lanceman | Have you tried turning down the textures and making everything as basic as possible? Robbie went over that a week or so ago.
|
| 07:44:06 PM | _Jot_ | ajamison, planets are free, you only need to add something to the universe, and get your own players, so realisticially, you need a few hundred thousand to a few million dollars and a company/team etc
|
| 07:44:19 PM | feedpixel | i wish all the best, have to sleep now is late night here in Sweden ... will follow on podcast
|
| 07:44:20 PM | Ledzep | _Jot_I have a drive just for games.
|
| 07:44:37 PM | agamotto | GadgetWisdomGuru, Wow... that is probably around 350 watts alone, depending on activity
|
| 07:44:37 PM | Gadwil | lanceman, Yea, 1 or 2 versions ago. Even in safe mode. No go. I am on a 7300 SE.
|
| 07:44:44 PM | _Jot_ | Ledzep, many people do, but it wouldn't be honest to warn for the large download
|
| 07:45:05 PM | _Jot_ | Gadwil, they did improve a little, but with a 7300, I wouldn't really try
|
| 07:45:07 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | agamotto: That's why I got the bigger power supply
|
| 07:45:23 PM | lanceman | Gadwil, too bad. Can you upgrade your video card?
|
| 07:45:24 PM | SammySez | hah! RobbieF the point slinger
|
| 07:45:29 PM | Gadwil | I did, won't try again until I upgrade my GPU.
|
| 07:45:30 PM | _Jot_ | Gadwil, I run it on a 7900 with 3GB memory too, and it works there, but 7300, I doubt it
|
| 07:45:35 PM | ajamison5579 | I have a 750W power supply
|
| 07:45:39 PM | Knowell | Hello Robbie and Eric!!
|
| 07:45:46 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | That, and the new one support I5/I7 and I figured someday I'd want to upgrade.
|
| 07:45:53 PM | lanceman | Wow, that sucks.
|
| 07:45:54 PM | Gadwil | I am getting a 490 GTS for christmas most likely.
|
| 07:46:01 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | RobbieF, re the printer, is there a Brother printer with duplex functions you know of?
|
| 07:46:03 PM | agamotto | GadgetWisdomGuru, always a good idea
|
| 07:46:09 PM | lanceman | Well, that'l help.
|
| 07:46:20 PM | agamotto | Gadwil, What are the power specs on that?
|
| 07:46:24 PM | EricKidd | Welcome aboard Knowell.
|
| 07:46:27 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | agamotto: I just had one of my MythTV frontends die this weekend and shelled out USD300 for a Nvidia Ion system
|
| 07:46:28 PM | Gadwil | a 490 GTS will improve a ton.
|
| 07:46:29 PM | Ledzep | Sounds like Daemons tools
|
| 07:46:49 PM | EricKidd | Where are you from Knowell?
|
| 07:47:29 PM | Knowell | I'm from Barrie Ontario.
|
| 07:47:39 PM | agamotto | .iso automounts for me by just clicking on them in Gnome....
|
| 07:47:43 PM | Gadwil | GTS 450* and this is the card, not sure of wattage needed. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127527
|
| 07:47:58 PM | Knowell | Just found out about this show, and it's my first time watching.
|
| 07:48:06 PM | agamotto | Knowell, Welcome
|
| 07:48:20 PM | lanceman | Welcome Knowell.
|
| 07:48:36 PM | Knowell | TY TY. :D
|
| 07:48:36 PM | agamotto | Then you might have even run into Robbie somewhere
|
| 07:48:38 PM | _Jot_ | welcome to the studio Knowell.. well, almost :)
|
| 07:48:49 PM | Knowell | lol
|
| 07:49:12 PM | Knowell | I'm starting to think that Robbie look a bit alike!
|
| 07:49:22 PM | Knowell | ...and I...
|
| 07:49:41 PM | SammySez | Why not use: $ sudo modprobe loop $ sudo mkdir /media/myMountPoint $ sudo mount myISO.iso /media/myMountPoint/ -t iso9660 -o loop
|
| 07:49:57 PM | _Jot_ | so is it true that the sun doesn't shine in Barrie if Robbie is outside, cause the sun thinks it is already there from the glare off his head?
|
| 07:50:00 PM | Knysliux001 | why did Robbie had to make folder in /media?
|
| 07:50:04 PM | spectre1055 | Welcome Knowell...This is a great show and community...
|
| 07:50:09 PM | ajamison5579 | iso is not a very compressed format
|
| 07:50:56 PM | Ledzep | what do you use to make the iso
|
| 07:51:06 PM | pyrosrock | its not compressed
|
| 07:51:18 PM | Knysliux001 | RobbieF: could't it be inside /home/user ?
|
| 07:51:23 PM | _Jot_ | Ledzep, iso is a cd-image, so any cd-authoring software
|
| 07:51:46 PM | Ledzep | will img burn run in Linux
|
| 07:51:49 PM | agamotto | Hmmm, 160 watts... not too horrible, but still
|
| 07:51:56 PM | Knysliux001 | thanks
|
| 07:52:02 PM | Knowell | instead of a DVD it's a VDI
|
| 07:52:16 PM | ajamison5579 | khysliux001 yes it can be any folder but the /media folder is what the autofs uses to mount it and place a icon on the desktop
|
| 07:52:29 PM | sprintcowboy | img burn should run under wine
|
| 07:52:37 PM | Ledzep | ty
|
| 07:52:44 PM | Knysliux001 | oh. now I get it, ajamison5579
|
| 07:52:55 PM | spectre1055 | Ledzep, K3b works well to create iso
|
| 07:53:14 PM | agamotto | Brasero... k3b gives me too many problems.
|
| 07:53:19 PM | Ledzep | I've actually never trie Wine.....K3b...note taken
|
| 07:53:26 PM | Gadwil | RobbieF, Mine seem to dissapear from /media after rebooting.
|
| 07:53:36 PM | SammySez | "$ sudo mount myISO.iso /media/myMountPoint/ -t iso9660 -o loop" works too
|
| 07:53:39 PM | ajamison5579 | knysliux001 a different folder would mean you would need to go to your computer where is shows your drives to see it
|
| 07:53:48 PM | Ledzep | I use Daemnon on Win
|
| 07:54:20 PM | Ledzep | But swap drives and also use Ubuntu
|
| 07:54:23 PM | spectre1055 | My luck has been good with K3b, especially the more mature it gets.
|
| 07:54:32 PM | Gadwil | ugh, I missed that! There was a lot more but didn't see that!
|
| 07:54:35 PM | Knysliux001 | agamotto: same for me but about brasero :) K3b was the only program that worked for my burner year ago
|
| 07:54:41 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Did I miss anything? My uncle called?
|
| 07:54:42 PM | SammySez | is that Burning Man?
|
| 07:54:52 PM | EricKidd | Hey, Knowell, from Barrie...recognize anything in the image on the show?
|
| 07:55:02 PM | agamotto | Coolies. I just gave up on k3b because of the interminable 'this is not an empty disc' syndrome
|
| 07:55:26 PM | Knowell | Yeah, that's the big bird on LakeShore! Native Art... Love it! :D
|
| 07:55:36 PM | Ledzep | I have learned a lot here...thanks guys
|
| 07:56:23 PM | agamotto | I am still shaking my head at property prices in Canada
|
| 07:56:25 PM | EricKidd | That's called the "Spirit Catcher". It's down at the waterfront on Kempenfelt Bay in Barrie.
|
| 07:56:42 PM | agamotto | Between that and Holmes on Homes... I don't think I would want to move there
|
| 07:57:26 PM | SammySez | huh
|
| 07:57:35 PM | _Jot_ | LedZep, you're very ewlcome
|
| 07:57:48 PM | _Jot_ | welcome, geez, Jot can't type after many hours of it
|
| 07:58:01 PM | mindlord | Time to go home. thanks for the show. :)
|
| 07:58:06 PM | Knysliux001 | strange, why would command to start Gmount-iso would be uppercase. So inconvenient
|
| 07:58:27 PM | _Jot_ | mklink gmount-iso Gmount-iso ?
|
| 07:58:37 PM | Gadwil | What do you guys think of GIMP going from 3 panels to 1 window?
|
| 07:58:46 PM | Knysliux001 | good idea =)
|
| 07:58:47 PM | Knowell | Ah, shux Guys!
|
| 07:58:48 PM | Knowell | Thanks
|
| 07:58:54 PM | SammySez | Spirit Catcher - heh. Tax dollars well spent I'm sure. :)
|
| 07:59:03 PM | Knowell | I like it!...
|
| 07:59:16 PM | Gadwil | No cool beans?
|
| 07:59:27 PM | Wreken | Cool Beans!
|
| 07:59:34 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Gadwil, I prefer salty peanuts
|
| 07:59:39 PM | agamotto | I prefer my beans cooked, thanks
|
| 07:59:51 PM | _Jot_ | EricKidd, you touched it last! it's yours now
|
| 07:59:51 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | No beans, just brekkie
|
| 07:59:52 PM | Gadwil | I don't even like beans, but Hillary's are cool.
|
| 07:59:54 PM | Ledzep | Salted peanuts........yum
|
| 07:59:58 PM | agamotto | Pear pimples for hairy fish nuts?
|
| 07:59:59 PM | Knowell | Ciao guys, cya next time.
|
| 08:00:06 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Gadwil, that sounds vaguely suggestive
|
| 08:00:08 PM | spectre1055 | See ya
|
| 08:00:11 PM | Gadwil | Time for mass exodus.
|
| 08:00:12 PM | Knysliux001 | Goodnight

|
| 08:00:33 PM | Gadwil | Nvm, lets not go where I think that may be leading.
|
| 08:00:37 PM | agamotto | Nah, that would be chocolate shweaty balls... you know, in the cheese section
|
| 08:00:37 PM | spectre1055 | You guys have a great week...
|
| 08:00:51 PM | Ledzep | Have a good week all....
|

|
| 08:01:00 PM | _Jot_ | I love chocolate balls with nuts
|
| 08:01:08 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Gadwil: Yes. But maybe I've just been talking to Jere too much. This week, I caught myself before he did on a slip of the tongue
|
| 08:01:10 PM | Knowell | nite-E-nite
|
| 08:01:12 PM | rdstreets | See ya next time

|
| 08:01:45 PM | Gadwil | GWG, I am so behind. I amy just declare Netcast bankruptcy on AndroidBuffet.
|
| 08:01:48 PM | EricKidd | See y'all next week!!!
|
| 08:01:57 PM | agamotto | Well, now that the cats are fed and happy, I suppose I should go home soon

|
