07:06:32 PMdman810 RobbieF - How do I install my /home folder on a second hard drive, Ubuntu 10.10
07:06:38 PMGregInTexas why not just build it yourself?
07:06:40 PMagamotto eeeeek
07:06:42 PMGadwil- dman810, Is this a fresh install?
07:06:53 PMGregInTexas it would be a lot cheaper to build it yourself!
07:06:59 PMdman810 @Gadwil - yes
07:07:17 PMdman810 i can wipe both hard drives but I get a crash error
07:07:22 PMScorpio55 Dave-M0DCM was QRV Elink earlier

07:07:42 PMDave-M0DCM Ill be on there tomorrow
07:07:45 PMGadwil- Dman810... Could you Post that in the Forum, and I can go in-detail there, and perhaps even make a wiki page for it. That would be better than typing it all into the chatroom.
07:07:58 PMdman810 ok
07:08:06 PMDave-M0DCM Ive blown the FT-817NDs finals running RTTY at full duty cycle last night

07:09:07 PMDave-M0DCM Im not paying for it to be fixed
07:09:19 PMchrisreich Everyone get your drinks ready for a swallow each time RobbieF mispronounces a word.
07:09:37 PM_Jot_ chrisreich, I dont have that much to drink in my house, even if I drink water
07:09:39 PMDave-M0DCM the chap who gave me it is paying
07:09:39 PMGadwil- So, an exception for " *.category5.tv " and " *.cat5.tv " would be nice.
07:09:40 PMagamotto Hmmm, since we have control of our LUG website now.... I think I can add a Cat5 button to the page... capital idea
07:09:41 PMspideyman RobbieF nevermind the sweater i love the tshirt!
07:09:51 PMchrisreich _Jot_ do the best you can.
07:09:57 PMchrisreich brb

07:11:24 PMDave-M0DCM Ive still got my TH-D7E
07:11:27 PMGregInTexas that dead air is kind of like windows crashing
07:11:28 PM_Jot_ she does change hairstyles often :)
07:11:36 PMGadwil- Who has used Gnome 3 so far?
07:11:36 PMCliff_H Nice hair
07:11:37 PMagamotto RobbieF- Are you really sure that Christa isnt a technomage, and has put various daemons in your systems?
07:11:44 PM_Jot_ Christa, say something!
07:12:02 PMDave-M0DCM We better stop chatting Ham Radio Scorpio
07:12:04 PMDave-M0DCM lol
07:12:04 PMChrista haha, sometimes I find that the hat is not necessary
07:12:13 PMGadwil- Robbie, Sounds great.
07:12:16 PMmmdmurphy Dark
07:12:26 PMYazid1965 but the hats rock also
07:12:27 PMagamotto GregInTexas- I am a bit bummed tonight... need to slow down the beer intake
07:12:36 PMScorpio55 Dave-M0DCM RR
07:12:49 PMGregInTexas well, at that rate, you wont be bummed long
07:12:56 PMGregInTexas awake either ...
07:13:35 PMChrista @ GregInTexas - thats ok, Jot tends to have naps lately as well
07:13:39 PMBedBug2 oh wasnt this about the word format
07:13:53 PMGregInTexas lol @ christa
07:13:56 PMagamotto Something like
07:14:09 PM_Jot_ Christa, its not the people, I have good excuses! like staying up for portal 2
07:14:18 PMDave-M0DCM but Scorpio, at least Im running Linux in the hobby
07:14:19 PMDave-M0DCM lol
07:15:02 PMBedBug2 personally I think patenting software is daft to begin with
07:15:16 PMGadwil- I bet Wal-Mart is bigger than Microsoft.
07:15:17 PMagamotto agreed
07:15:29 PMGregInTexas I kind of agree as well
07:15:47 PMGregInTexas I think Amazon is getting bigger than walmart
07:16:12 PMScorpio55 Dave-M0DCM did you get your special callsign for the big wedding coming up
07:16:16 PMGadwil- GregInTexas, Not in man-power. And I still dont even believe that too much.
07:16:22 PMDave-M0DCM I did
07:16:23 PMDave-M0DCM :D
07:16:30 PMDave-M0DCM MR0DCM
07:16:31 PMDave-M0DCM lol
07:16:42 PMGregInTexas no one has more "manpower" than walmart ...
07:16:54 PMDave-M0DCM Its nice to see Microsoft get shafted
07:17:16 PMagamotto :)
07:17:40 PMagamotto .docx and such
07:17:59 PMDave-M0DCM Open Source rocks
07:18:05 PMScorpio55 Dave-M0DCM mine would be GR7 and MR0
07:18:46 PMDave-M0DCM If I had my M5AHW callsign, it would be a rare one
07:18:48 PMDave-M0DCM lol
07:19:13 PM_Jot_ sourcecode doesnt get executed by a computer, it gets translated first, so you cant read from sourcecode how the computer does something, by itsself, since it depends on the translator used etc too
07:19:35 PMagamotto .docx dies a very quick death?
07:19:39 PMDave-M0DCM Correct
07:20:07 PMGregInTexas turn about is fair play Mr. Gates
07:20:08 PMDave-M0DCM I like reading source code in C/C++
07:20:35 PMagamotto I sadly suspect that M$ will win.... this is the same Supreme Court that gave corporations unlimited donations to political campaigns after all...
07:21:11 PMagamotto Yes, it is about time for someone to pull another C= on M$.....
07:21:32 PMdman810 @Gadwil - do you know if you check an Ubuntu 10.10 disk for errors?
07:21:57 PMagamotto Yes, just fsck it
07:22:02 PM_Jot_ agamotto, thats why they are on cat 5, they won, MS lost
07:22:24 PMGadwil- dman810, A) Make an ISO from the disk and then do an MD5 check, or as it is booting, you can click a key on the plain purple screen when it shows the " Accesbility menu" option, and then select check disk for errors from there.
07:22:27 PMagamotto Wow.... that was quick for the Supreme Court
07:22:45 PMGregInTexas Texas Supreme Court
07:22:49 PMGregInTexas much faster
07:22:51 PMDave-M0DCM stop running Windows
07:22:55 PMagamotto Oh, well then it isnt over yet
07:23:02 PMGregInTexas not over yet
07:23:15 PMagamotto My statement stands then
07:24:26 PMGregInTexas M$, pay attention to other peoples patents ... bwahahaha!
07:24:30 PMCliff_H I hope to God he comes out on top!!!
07:24:53 PMCliff_H Getting tired of big $$$$ runnn over peeps
07:24:54 PMDave-M0DCM MS never pay attention to anything
07:24:55 PM_Jot_ the big problem with patents is that you cant make anything, and youre breaking them, so its preventing and stopping technology and innovation
07:25:12 PMcalhydro Robbie: You are now 50 Bucks closer to your new broadcaster.
07:25:21 PMGregInTexas yes, _Jot_ they are
07:25:30 PMAspidZent the patent system is completely screwed up...
07:25:33 PMagamotto I am still trying to figure out how you get a patent on simple words...
07:25:47 PMGregInTexas lets patent the space bar ...
07:25:48 PMBedBug2 XML is open, dont get it
07:26:00 PMkgoosie Have you heard about the apple samsung debate
07:26:11 PM_Jot_ its not about xml, its about something else, just microsoft uses it with xml
07:26:19 PMagamotto What now, both companies have been caught stealing from each other?
07:26:20 PMGadwil- Anyone in the chatroom play Magic The Gathering?
07:26:31 PMu-al It is good that IFI has the resources to defend its patents
07:26:34 PM_Jot_ Hillary! You look very strange today, did you do something with your hair?
07:26:45 PMtordeu RobbieF: quick, tickle Christa
07:26:46 PMGregInTexas hehe
07:26:57 PMmmdmurphy _Jot_ just woke up
07:27:01 PMHillary dye job.
07:27:07 PMGregInTexas lol
07:27:40 PMGregInTexas leebray
07:27:43 PMagamotto Typical.... Larry does something smart... after he loses everyone attached to the idea.....
07:27:45 PMchrisreich DRINK!
07:27:50 PMtordeu dye job? wow, the new hair totally changed your appearance.
07:28:05 PMDave-M0DCM Libre Office is dead in the water?
07:28:19 PMagamotto No, Libre Office is now free of all S
07:28:20 PMGregInTexas no, libre office is not dead ... hehe
07:28:26 PMagamotto un/Oracle entanglements
07:28:33 PMGregInTexas oracle gave up
07:28:35 PMDave-M0DCM ahh
07:28:40 PMDave-M0DCM I like Libre Office
07:28:51 PMGregInTexas Im still using OO
07:28:57 PMGregInTexas need to switch
07:29:09 PMDave-M0DCM Im running Libre on all 5 PCs
07:29:09 PMGregInTexas drink again!!
07:29:37 PMkgoosie here is the pc world article regarding samsung and apple http://goo.gl/V4lHO
07:29:46 PMGregInTexas wow
07:30:05 PMGregInTexas look at that gadget
07:30:24 PMGregInTexas BAD ON CISCO
07:30:57 PMkgoosie how many people own a flip anyway
07:31:04 PMchrisreich lots
07:31:07 PMmmdmurphy I agree with Cisco - you can do all that on your phone now.
07:31:08 PMagamotto Something like 15mil
07:31:08 PMGregInTexas Ill buy it ... how bout a hundred bucks?
07:31:17 PMkgoosie kodak playsport waterproof and just as good
07:31:31 PMGregInTexas I have a flip ... great gadget
07:31:31 PMagamotto Hmmm, Somali pirates, here we go!
07:31:33 PMkgoosie cheaper too
07:31:52 PMGregInTexas mine was cheap off of woot.com
07:32:03 PMHillary i want a flip!
07:32:04 PM_Jot_ I wonder what it did with people who were near the engine, but Im sure they were well out of range etc
07:32:05 PMgoodguy98 Then well rescue them, feed and house them for years
07:32:13 PMGregInTexas flips are awesome!
07:32:17 PMGadwil- Christa, This show is NOT about being "realistic".
07:32:20 PMNewa worthy: http://www.humblebundle.com/
07:32:24 PMkgoosie they definitely had their place
07:32:26 PMgoodguy98 Its very accurate _Jot_
07:32:40 PMCliff_H The video shows them zapping out board motors
07:32:52 PMCliff_H AKA engines
07:32:58 PMgoodguy98 The outboard was miles away
07:32:58 PM_Jot_ goodguy98, still, I wouldnt want to be in its path while working on the engine
07:33:14 PMcalhydro Somali pirates better watch out!
07:33:37 PMDave-M0DCM Anyone going to run Unity?
07:33:38 PMGregInTexas Id hate to have to site in a laser in 10 foot swells ...
07:33:41 PMCliff_H Wonder if you could cook fish dinner in the ocean that way.....
07:33:42 PM_Jot_ it can be precise, but water goes up and down, so even if it is precise, it cant compensate as fast for such movement Im sure
07:33:54 PMDave-M0DCM or running Gah NOME 3?
07:34:08 PMGregInTexas I will probably stick with gnome
07:34:13 PMgoodguy98 We spend billions on a laser to disable outboards..... Russians use a cheap bullet and leave the pirates w/o navigation gear or weapons
07:34:15 PMGregInTexas for now
07:34:24 PMCliff_H Gyros & servos take care of the ships movement
07:34:27 PMgoodguy98 It can do that _Jot_
07:34:28 PMkgoosie i have it on the ubuntu netbook edition really definitely different
07:34:35 PMagamotto I will probably wind up running Gnome 3... Unity seems to Apple-y to me
07:34:38 PMgoodguy98 That was the whole point of it
07:35:04 PMGregInTexas I dont even like the idea of menus seperate from windows
07:35:15 PMkgoosie i remember reading articles that unity was designed for touch screen
07:35:19 PMagamotto goodguy98- Your forget, we dont want to get involved anymore... much easier to zap from 1/2 mi away
07:35:27 PMGregInTexas if thats what a mac does then no wonder I cant deal with them
07:35:35 PMgoodguy98 The Navy Seal snipers shot three pirates on a moving ship from another moving boat
07:35:49 PMGregInTexas unity will supposedly have multi-touch
07:35:51 PMcalhydro If the Abrams M1 tank can shoot a target going 50mph, they can build a gimbel mount for a ship
07:35:59 PMGregInTexas although there has to be kernel changes for that to work
07:36:11 PMdman810 agamotto - can I run FSCK after my live cd has booted my machine?
07:36:18 PMgoodguy98 and that wasnt lasers firing
07:36:25 PMagamotto I will get excited about it when I have a touchscreen
07:36:45 PMagamotto dman810- Yes, just unmount the volume you want to scan
07:36:50 PMDave-M0DCM Acers new Tablet looks cool
07:37:02 PMDave-M0DCM Dual screen with a virtual keyboard
07:37:09 PMkgoosie go check out wireds review of the Acer tablet
07:37:12 PMcalhydro One laser painting the target the other tracks
07:37:13 PMDave-M0DCM a little like the Kno but looks better
07:37:15 PMGregInTexas where unity/multi-touch comes in is running ubuntu on a tablet or phone
07:37:37 PMGregInTexas but doesnt gnome 3 have multi-touch?
07:37:44 PMGregInTexas or am I dreaming?
07:38:00 PMkgoosie if that is the case maybe they should have a ubuntu tablet edition that is the only one with unity
07:39:09 PMgoodguy98 They had that and got rid of it to make a single release for all
07:39:34 PMDave-M0DCM Unity is more suited to small screens, so why is Mr Shuttleworth making it default desktop from 11.10?
07:39:44 PMDave-M0DCM we should have a choice
07:39:57 PMagamotto That is the $64 question
07:39:57 PMGregInTexas well, shuttleworth is having a tift with gnome
07:40:02 PMkgoosie @Dave-M0DCM agreed
07:40:07 PMGregInTexas and he is ditching X
07:40:18 PMgoodguy98 You do.. Kubuntu, Lubuntu, etc
07:40:20 PMGregInTexas which in theory is good, but ...
07:40:36 PMDave-M0DCM but no Gah NOME
07:40:43 PMchrisreich not to mention Debian, Linux Mint, PCLinuxOS, etc.
07:40:47 PMdman810 you have a choice of not to upgrade
07:40:54 PMDave-M0DCM unless that bring out a GUBUNTU distro
07:40:57 PMagamotto Yes, from the reviews of 11.04 beta... I think I will be skipping this one
07:40:57 PMGadwil- Canonical is the Microsoft of open source.
07:41:06 PMagamotto I might do Mythbuntu 11.04....
07:41:09 PMgoodguy98 Ubuntu isnt Burger King.. You get it HIS way :-)
07:41:12 PMGadwil- I cant even get a live CD to boot of 11.04 beta.
07:41:23 PMScorpio55 You call fall back to Gnome 2 no need to have whats in the box
07:41:27 PMHillary oh dear, i must depart.
07:41:27 PMScorpio55 can
07:41:32 PMHillary hpe you fine folk...are fine.
07:41:34 PMagamotto Dave-M0DCM- nah, at that point, you might as well move to Linux Mint
07:41:35 PMtordeu Why should they bring out a GUBUNTU distro? Ubuntu has GNOME and that will stay that way.
07:41:41 PMGadwil- Bye Hillary.
07:41:41 PMdman810 Bye Hillary
07:41:42 PMGregInTexas byeee Hillary!
07:41:45 PMDave-M0DCM bye Hillary
07:41:45 PMGadwil- Nice seeing you.
07:41:46 PMgoodguy98 I have it installed in VirtualBox Gadwil
07:41:46 PMHillary toodaloo for now amigos. keep it real!
07:41:48 PMKing_Arthur gadwil maybe your graphics card isnt 3d capabile
07:42:18 PMGadwil- King_Arthur, A new ATI Radeon HD 5450 AND Nvidia GTS 450 Cant run it... I think not.
07:42:37 PMGregInTexas tordeu ... canonical has announced gnome will not be in 11.10
07:42:40 PMKing_Arthur my ati has issues with unity also
07:42:52 PMgoodguy98 Install 11.04, install Guest Additions, activate 3d acceleration in VB
07:43:05 PMDave-M0DCM Im sticking with Ubuntu 9.10 on my Netbook, but if Alan Cox and Intel can get a Open Source driver for the GMA500 "Poulsbo" chipset to fully work, I may try out Unity on it
07:43:09 PMGadwil- I get a Panic error booting on my ATI system... Before it even gets onto the system.
07:43:14 PMKing_Arthur Gadwil -I filed a bug - it got fixed
07:43:26 PMtordeu Of course GNOME will be in 11.10
07:43:41 PMGregInTexas they say it wont, tordeu
07:43:42 PMDave-M0DCM Are you sure?
07:43:46 PMagamotto tordeu- Not be default
07:43:54 PMGadwil- tordeu, From what I heard, the option for the default desktop wont be there.. Unity only come 11.10.
07:44:00 PMGregInTexas youll have to install it seperately
07:44:01 PMDave-M0DCM Ive read somewhere that Gnome is being ditched in 11.10 onwards
07:44:17 PMAspidZent I read that too Dave-M0DCM...
07:44:24 PMGadwil- They need to ditch Unity 11.04 onwards.
07:44:25 PMDave-M0DCM and currently GNOME 3.0 is very buggy in Ubuntu
07:44:31 PMGregInTexas Im not ditching Gnome anytime soon
07:44:34 PMAspidZent the old gnome desktop is going bye bye...
07:44:41 PMtordeu GregInTexas, It wont have the classic GNOME desktop (but thats just a "view" if you will). That is something completely different. Unity is built on GNOME and 11.10 will have GNOME.
07:45:00 PMtordeu Unity is only a view on top of GNOME
07:45:03 PMGadwil- Dave, I am using Gnome 3 in Archlinux... working great. It is probably the other packages that Ubuntu uses to make their system " user firendly" are buggy with it.
07:45:06 PMtordeu (=shell)
07:45:24 PMGregInTexas from what I have read, Unity does not use X Windows as does Gnome ...
07:45:34 PMDave-M0DCM Im still waiting to see which way Debian go
07:45:47 PMchrisreich Unity uses X
07:45:54 PMGregInTexas it does?
07:45:55 PMDave-M0DCM ch
07:45:58 PMDave-M0DCM oops
07:46:00 PMGregInTexas then whats the point?
07:46:05 PMGadwil- X is a layer under Gnome which is under Unity.
07:46:07 PMDave-M0DCM currently it uses X
07:46:08 PMchrisreich most assuredly
07:46:11 PMtordeu Unity uses X. But they want to get rid of X in the long run
07:46:18 PMDave-M0DCM but soon it will be WayLand
07:46:26 PMGadwil- Not soon, but in the future.
07:46:40 PMGregInTexas I see ...
07:46:42 PMDave-M0DCM 12.04 onwards
07:47:04 PMAspidZent the ditching of X is not going to be anytime soon... maybe for 13.04 wayland will be available as an option...
07:47:20 PMGadwil- I dont even think 12... By 12.10 they MAY have an extra option to download something built on Wayland, but it will be quite a while after that before it even makes it an idea for mainstream distro.
07:47:26 PMScorpio55 MAC and M$ desktops havent change much over the years at least Canonical are innovative
07:47:33 PMDave-M0DCM so were looking at 2013 then?
07:47:52 PMtordeu Well, they need to be innovative. There are a lot of places where Linux is a mess.
07:47:54 PMGregInTexas hmmm ... I may experiment with it then
07:47:57 PMDave-M0DCM Windows 8 is going the same way as Ubuntu
07:48:00 PMGadwil- scorpio55, Have you seen Vista/7. Shell changes in each one. The layout simply hasnt changed much.
07:48:14 PMGregInTexas ditching X seems like a sure fire way to incorporate a mountain of bugs
07:48:22 PMagamotto looping?
07:48:31 PMgoodguy98 One of the UK Linux mags had an article on how to run Waylank in 10.10
07:48:36 PMgoodguy98 Wayland
07:48:40 PMGadwil- Dave, not so true... first we dont know much about it " officially ". and then that cant even be said until we see some official builds.
07:48:46 PMDave-M0DCM Linux Format did
07:49:00 PMkgoosie how many different linux oses do you run anyone?
07:49:05 PMgoodguy98 Thanks.. forgot the title
07:49:08 PMDave-M0DCM I remember reading the article about Wayland
07:49:12 PMGregInTexas I just run two
07:49:22 PMkgoosie and which ones
07:49:25 PMGregInTexas I just run two
07:49:27 PMNewa 2-3: Ubuntu, Linpus and Knoppix
07:49:27 PMDave-M0DCM Not a prob Goodguy
07:49:29 PMgoodguy98 In real mode or in Virtual Box instances?
07:49:37 PMDave-M0DCM I just use Ubuntu
07:49:38 PMGadwil- I have ran... too many to count. Mainly I run up to 3 or 4.
07:49:42 PMDave-M0DCM at the moment
07:49:45 PMkgoosie either
07:49:46 PMScorpio55 Gadwil correct Canonical are brave to completely change the way we interact with computers
07:49:49 PMGregInTexas Ubuntu 10.04 and SLES10
07:49:54 PMNewa ooh, and RHEL at work
07:50:04 PMDave-M0DCM but once my Laptop is fixed, I may try Deb 6 or something else
07:50:12 PMgoodguy98 I run WinXP Pro, Ubuntu 10.10 and Pinguy OS 10.10.1 in real partitions
07:50:30 PMGadwil- scorpio55, Gnome is doing more than Unity... Gnome 3 doesnt crash near as much as Unity... I cant even get Unity running and Gnome 3 works wonderfully.
07:50:44 PMDave-M0DCM I was thinking of trying Unity Linux
07:51:05 PMDave-M0DCM not to be confused with Unity on Ubuntu
07:51:11 PMgoodguy98 Run another Ubuntu 10.10, Silix, JoliOS, Ubuntu 11.04 and Lucid Puppy in VMs
07:51:16 PMtordeu Both Unity and GNOME 3 will take some time to mature.
07:51:16 PMmmdmurphy No disrespect, but does she get it? I barely do.
07:51:32 PMchrisreich gotta run - gnight all
07:51:42 PMGregInTexas c ya chrisreich
07:51:47 PMDave-M0DCM night
07:51:49 PMkgoosie I have 11.04 ubuntu netbook and 10.04 on desktop with windows 7 on both
07:51:54 PMGadwil- Gnome 3 is not without its bugs... such as having to log out in order to shutdown using GUI due to a bug in the shell.. But it so far is working much better for me than Unity does.
07:52:13 PMDave-M0DCM Can I upgrade to GNOME 2.32 in 10.04?
07:52:29 PMDave-M0DCM or do I need to install 10.10 Ubuntu?
07:52:45 PMagamotto No, I think it is a part of 10.04.2
07:52:47 PMGadwil- Dave, perhaps the Backport Repo, or a PPA.
07:53:09 PMkgoosie It seems robbie uses Ubuntu as his main os. Does anyone else do this with a possible vm of windows
07:53:10 PMScorpio55 Gadwil Unity works fine on one of my machines, I guess it will buggy for some after the RC just like KDE 4, KDE 4.6 is much better the RC
07:53:21 PMJVSCC When did Robbie add a commercial b4 the live video feed starts?
07:53:24 PMDave-M0DCM Im running 10.04.2, but its running GNOME 2.30.2
07:53:25 PMGadwil- kgoosie, I do just that.
07:53:33 PMNewa RobbieF: http://www.humblebundle.com/ one week left!
07:53:35 PMGregInTexas I think Robbie uses 10.04 ubuntu
07:53:38 PMKing_Arthur Christa thanks for looking interesting! while robbie was coding ccs
07:53:39 PMagamotto JVSCC- this week, due to extra funds being needed
07:53:41 PMkgoosie I am seriously thinking about doing it
07:53:48 PMDave-M0DCM You know what I think of KDE Scorpio
07:53:48 PMGadwil- Scorpio55, KDE 4 ran just fine for me from Beta through 4.6.
07:53:53 PMagamotto Dave-M0DCM- my mistake then
07:54:03 PM_Jot_ yay, Jot wins?
07:54:03 PMDave-M0DCM its Windows 7 lol
07:54:05 PMJVSCC Oh ok kewl I understand need those funds!
07:54:06 PMGadwil- YAY DRAWBOT!
07:54:14 PMChrista @King_Arthur - It was in the job description
07:54:23 PMcalhydro Robbie: Found this great little tool called colorcrop to pick HTML & RGB color values. Check it Out.
07:54:34 PMAspidZent I got the humble frozen bundle... it is awesome!!!
07:54:50 PMGregInTexas colorcrop?
07:54:52 PMDave-M0DCM Calhydro I like your nickname
07:54:57 PMGregInTexas what does it do?
07:55:01 PMAspidZent Im currently digging the trine and shadowgrounds games..
07:55:02 PMDave-M0DCM any reason for Hydro?
07:55:23 PMAspidZent shadowgrounds has a couple of glitches under ubuntu...
07:55:25 PMcalhydro Sample webpage colors to your web page developme
07:55:49 PMAspidZent it looses sound from time to time... but the game runs beautifully...
07:56:12 PMagamotto One of the reasons I prefer NOT working with other people when possible... grin
07:56:30 PMJVSCC She the Queen!
07:56:34 PMGregInTexas ok, wrote it down
07:56:35 PMagamotto What is Shadowgrounds?
07:56:43 PMNewa AspidZent: I suppose youve looked at this? http://frozenbyte.com/help_humble/linuxfaq.html
07:57:04 PMGadwil- RobbieF, Where do we send the emails to get her to do hers?
07:57:08 PMGregInTexas clever and awesome
07:57:12 PM_Jot_ Christa, you cant have time off, you have to be at the show!
07:57:19 PMcalhydro We do have a Stargate in Detroit: http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=42.328108,-83.044883&spn=0,359.999013&t=h&z=20&layer=c&cbll=42.328267,-83.045118&panoid=Hjtz4teF55kAJ5eNOHOjRQ&cbp=12,153.91,,0,-6.82

07:57:53 PMGregInTexas who prints emails?
07:57:56 PMGadwil- RobbieF, Those go to you, not her, so it just adds more work on you.
07:57:57 PMScorpio55 Dave-M0DCM any street part your way for big wedding day
07:58:03 PM_Jot_ RobbieF, Christa who? Theres no bio, so who are you talking about? we dont know anybody like that

07:59:45 PMCliff_H Night everyone
07:59:45 PMRobbieF thanks everyone
07:59:46 PMKing_Arthur THanks Robbie and Christa
07:59:47 PMGregInTexas no crashes!
07:59:53 PMNewa good show RobbieF , Christa
07:59:53 PMkgoosie so which server os
07:59:54 PMGregInTexas good show yall
07:59:55 PMagamotto Playing hockey, I hear
07:59:57 PMJVSCC Oh no Im in trouble. lol
08:00:05 PM_Jot_ hi EricKidd, you mean that guy next to Eric all the time? no idea where Eric is, that other guy isnt familiar
08:00:08 PMCliff_H @RobbieF Christa Good show
08:00:10 PMas759 Happy Easter one and all ... see you next week!
08:00:14 PMdman810 Thanks Robbie
08:00:15 PMAspidZent excellent show everyone...
08:00:15 PMChrista Hey yall....thanks for tuning in
08:00:22 PMChrista and not laughing too much at my news report
08:00:37 PMJVSCC Oh darn I missed it
08:00:38 PMRobbieF I was a little unsure at the top because our interview still hadnt called in, but I think it all came together okay :)
08:00:38 PMGregInTexas you did fine, Christa
08:00:40 PMChrista @JVSCC - Im afraid Ive always had that look, I cant seem to shake it
08:00:41 PMScorpio55 Dave-M0DCM Wills is a lucky guy Kate is quite a looker
08:00:41 PMNewa it was just fine, perhaps you could get used to it?
08:00:44 PMEricKidd Eric got pre-empted by a crashed server, or so, he was told :)
08:00:47 PMagamotto Christa- You do better than many national news presenters
08:00:49 PMChrista I swear, Im way more intelligent then I look
08:00:59 PM_Jot_ RobbieF, and not even one crash, good job broadcastingcomputer
08:01:07 PMJVSCC It looks good on you though ;0)
08:01:18 PMEricKidd I hear Christa is waaay better looking and more charming than that Eric guy.
08:01:19 PMNewa or the remains of the broadcasting computer
08:01:22 PM_Jot_ Christa, dont sweat! If youre smart, youd know that isnt polite :)
08:01:28 PMJVSCC LOL
08:01:30 PMGregInTexas lol ...
08:01:36 PMagamotto heheehh
08:01:37 PMRobbieF Jot; had to really strip things down... but I think I did it in such a way that you might not even notice. Eg. did you catch that the background during the news segment was NOT animated this week? :)
08:01:41 PMGadwil- dman810, Dont forget to post in the forum about your install issue.
08:01:46 PMChrista Nah, no one really likes that Eric guy that much anyways ;)
08:01:56 PMNewa oy
08:01:58 PM_Jot_ RobbieF, there was a background? all I saw was a nice girl who talked a lot
08:02:04 PMRobbieF the saddest thing though is that it meant we couldnt have Eric in, because we can only run one camera. Plus one of our mics got fried as well (I believe it was a surge from the power storm)
08:02:06 PMEricKidd ur nasty, young Christa!!!
08:02:13 PMNewa Eric did expert tapping on the tuesday video :)
08:02:29 PMJVSCC Wow sun just came out!
08:02:30 PMGadwil- Dont worry EricKidd, I like you being on the show.
08:02:30 PMdman810 @Gadwil - I am thinking that i have bad cds to install from
08:02:39 PMJVSCC ya storms are over...I hope.
08:02:42 PMagamotto power storm? wow...
08:02:46 PMGregInTexas drink faster agamotto
08:02:54 PMGadwil- dman810, You could also be setting it up wrong if you manually do it.
08:03:10 PMAspidZent c ya ppl... I have to keep on working...
08:03:22 PMdman810 Gadwil - I tried just using one HD and it still crashes
08:03:23 PMEricKidd I was embarrassed to show up after the video aired. All my country music fans saw me doing a Rebecca Black parody with the cat5 gang. LOL
08:03:28 PMDave-M0DCM Oh if anyone has Facebook
08:03:29 PMGadwil- dman810, Use the ISO you downloaded and do a test in there... That will tell you if it is the disk, installer, or you doing it wrong.
08:03:38 PMDave-M0DCM a good group to join... Online linux help
08:03:49 PMDave-M0DCM only because Im an Admin there lol
08:03:52 PM_Jot_ EricKidd, you all had a lot of fun in the video, I dont think anybody could feel ashamed for that
08:03:58 PMagamotto EricKidd- It could have been much worse, it could have been Dancing with the Starts
08:03:59 PMdman810 gadwil - do what in where the check
08:04:45 PMGregInTexas I dropped the vid onto my desktop
08:04:46 PMEricKidd I made Robbie pound back a couple of beers during the shoot.......even he had fun :)
08:04:48 PMScorpio55 Dave-M0DCM have you checked for Tropo ducting since this heat wave
08:04:58 PMRobbieF haha erickidd
08:05:08 PMDave-M0DCM I was going to, till the FT-817 died on me
08:05:10 PMDave-M0DCM lol
08:05:10 PMGregInTexas I thought yall were a little wild
08:05:12 PMChrista ooooh! maybe well have to do a dancing with the stars portion of category 5
08:05:17 PMGregInTexas maybe more than a couplre of beers
08:05:18 PMagamotto I thought Robbie was a wine-swiller..... chuckle
08:05:23 PMEricKidd OK, he was willing....i didnt have to "make" him drink them.
08:05:27 PMJVSCC Are we talking about the Friday parody video?
08:05:27 PMkgoosie that would be your next parody video
08:05:29 PMRobbieF Agamotto, we mustve got hit pretty hard because we are obviously pretty particular about having good protection.
08:05:32 PMNewa dancing with startups?
08:05:50 PMRobbieF http://cat5.tv/tuesday
08:05:57 PM_Jot_ dancing with startups - all the movements somebody does while waiting for their computer to boot up
08:05:58 PMagamotto RobbieF- Down here it has been torrential rain, but no power spikes thankfully
08:06:01 PMGregInTexas Gimping with the stars
08:06:04 PMJVSCC Saw it on FB it was great!
08:06:25 PMDave-M0DCM GregInTexas, sounds like a 70s porn movie
08:06:26 PMDave-M0DCM lol
08:06:28 PMChrista Its set...I will convince Robbie that its a spectacular idea and he must incorporate it
08:06:31 PMGregInTexas lol
08:06:38 PMEricKidd Yes, the "Friday" paroday, and no Christa..........you cant make me dance.
08:06:39 PMkgoosie :)
08:06:46 PMagamotto RobbieF- My only request for future videos.... no autotune!
08:06:52 PMJVSCC But Christa need a singing part too!
08:06:55 PMScorpio55 Dave-M0DCM hows the propagation on HF have checked sun spot indexes
08:06:56 PMkgoosie erickidd you can be a judge
08:07:01 PMdman810 @Gadwil - I am trying to get my home folder on a second HD
08:07:08 PMEricKidd That
08:07:08 PMNewa ooh.. Eric can do "Iiii cant dance, I cant talk, the only thing about me is the way I walk..."
08:07:15 PMDave-M0DCM I was working Barbados last night
08:07:23 PMJVSCC LOL
08:07:24 PMDave-M0DCM then the finals blew
08:07:25 PMDave-M0DCM lol
08:07:30 PMEricKidd Thats it!!!!!!!!! Ill be the judge!!!
08:07:36 PMagamotto I could be Bruno... I speak some Italian
08:07:42 PMGadwil- dman810, Yes, You can manually split a virtual HDD into two using the Ubuntu installer. Just to test. It will act as if it is 2 HDDs.
08:08:08 PMGadwil- So you set one drive to "/" and another to "/home". and make a swap partition if you need one of those.
08:08:13 PMRobbieF agamotto - the autotune was to poke fun at the original song.
08:08:19 PMChrista I think Eric would be a crooked judge
08:08:20 PMEricKidd Um...I like Carrie-Ann :)
08:08:20 PMScorpio55 Dave-M0DCM can here QRN HF from voice of Russia comercial radio
08:08:37 PMGregInTexas judge ye not EricKidd ...
08:08:39 PMagamotto I know, but something to remember... i just simply detest it. giggle
08:08:39 PMJVSCC Christa can dance?
08:08:41 PMChrista wed have to hire judges outside of the show
08:08:45 PMDave-M0DCM yeah I noticed that too Scorpio
08:08:56 PMEricKidd Oh, cmon Robbie. the autotune was to make up for all the bum notes you hit!!!
08:08:56 PMDave-M0DCM on 7MHz?
08:09:00 PMGadwil- RobbieF, I was in the Wiki earlier today... The spammer also got into the actual profiles of the users. So those need to be cleaned as well, but I think each person individually needs to do their own.
08:09:02 PMRobbieF What CANT Christa do?
08:09:06 PMRobbieF that should be a t-shirt.
08:09:09 PMRobbieF WCCD.
08:09:10 PMRobbieF ;)
08:09:15 PMScorpio55 Dave-M0DCM RR
08:09:24 PMagamotto agreed
08:09:27 PMdman810 @Gadwil - Thats what I did but it stll crashes. I cant get the exact error message off the system that I am trying to rebuild. unless I write ir down
08:09:32 PMGadwil- I can think of a few things she cant do.
08:09:33 PMDave-M0DCM yeah, they run lots of power on 40meters
08:09:34 PMJVSCC Du-know?
08:09:35 PM_Jot_ RobbieF, Christa cant wear a cardigan?
08:09:37 PMGregInTexas you could sell a whole line of WCCD merchandise
