|
7:08:58 PM | JediTorv | [Incredible Hulk voice] Hulk SMASH tea! Hulk hug coffee :)
|
7:09:15 PM | Domenic | TheChrista perhaps the crackling comes from your hair touching the mic?

7:11:40 PM | ryburke | I feel like a newbie.....net has been broke. But Im baaaaack..
|
7:11:41 PM | GregInTexas | Im thinkin I like mysql and postgresql better than access ...
|
7:11:46 PM | SammySez | MySQL is free non-commercial
|
7:11:50 PM | ajamison5579 | that reminds me of Bruce Almighty when he says he wants all prayers organized in post-its
|
7:11:59 PM | Guest_5324 | #/nik
|
7:12:04 PM | Guest_3711 | Were do I down load it ?
|
7:12:04 PM | JVSCC | Thats me!
|
7:12:14 PM | GregInTexas | postgresql is a more robust database, but not quite as easy as mysql ... also free
|
7:12:17 PM | SammySez | sudo apt-get install mysql
|
7:12:27 PM | Ledzep | Is there a application to handle a Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 in Linux.

7:12:51 PM | Scorpio55 | Ledzep Cheese is one app
|
7:12:52 PM | Gadwil | TheChrista, no.
|
7:12:54 PM | mmdmurphy | TheChrista - not so much
|
7:13:00 PM | SammySez | if you know PHP Guest_3711, you can also you the PHPmyAdmin web app
|
7:13:01 PM | Domenic | RobbieF wrong graphic at christas setup, the graphic told that she was you ;)
|
7:13:04 PM | Gadwil | Let Robbie know he will not like doing shownotes with audio like this.
|
7:13:06 PM | mmdmurphy | Is the mic anywhere near your hair???
|
7:13:08 PM | TheChrista | aw shucks....I moved my mic over thinking it might solve things
|
7:13:12 PM | ajamison5579 | VirtualBox now supports VMware virtual disks
|
7:13:14 PM | ajamison5579 | sweet
|
7:13:16 PM | SammySez | using that GUI is what I used to learn SQL
|
7:13:17 PM | JediTorv | Agamotto: "You better work it, girl" lol
|
7:13:20 PM | TheChrista | yes, but no longer actually covered by it
|
7:13:23 PM | GregInTexas | phpmyadmin is a front end for mysql
|
7:13:32 PM | Gadwil | ajamison, isnt that currently experimental?
|
7:13:35 PM | Ledzep | Scorpio55 Cheese wont talk with the pro 9000
|
7:13:36 PM | mathman47 | Only getting every other word now.
|
7:13:39 PM | TheChrista | might be the sound of the server here infront of me
|
7:13:40 PM | agamotto | JediTorv, Hush, or I will take away all of your Princess Points
|
7:13:46 PM | chrisreich | RobbieF seriously there is something thumping and popping the audio. Please try to correct.
|
7:13:48 PM | ajamison5579 | no it was on the stable build
|
7:13:50 PM | ajamison5579 | 4.1
|
7:14:02 PM | JediTorv | LOL
|
7:14:07 PM | TheChrista | whos audio? mine or robbies?
|
7:14:07 PM | Gadwil | TheChrista, that is part of it, but there is also popping. The fans arent the major issue.
|
7:14:09 PM | ajamison5579 | i think it supports virtual PC disks also
|
7:14:19 PM | Gadwil | Sounds like yours Christa.
|
7:14:27 PM | agamotto | Tell Nat to quit pulling on the cords... chuckle
|
7:14:27 PM | mmdmurphy | I was wondering if the mic is hitting Robbies face, hard to tell
|
7:14:29 PM | Jim_1751 | Just wanted to say thanks. I stumbled across your site looking for video editors and found much much more.
|
7:14:32 PM | chrisreich | TheChrista we cant be sure from our end.
|
7:14:45 PM | mathman47 | RobbieFs sound bad for me.
|
7:14:51 PM | Jalu | How about Amahi Robbie ?
|
7:14:53 PM | TheChrista | well...why not!? Haha, just kidding, lets see what we can do
|
7:15:04 PM | antman1380 | do you need to have a guitar
|
7:15:20 PM | Gadwil | It sounds like Robbies audio is good to me.
|
7:15:38 PM | chrisreich | brb
|
7:15:40 PM | JediTorv | Jalu: watched a gr8 podcast on Amahi; its seems impressive.
|
7:15:42 PM | JVSCC | Kewl, Thanks RobbieF!
|
7:15:43 PM | Gadwil | I think it is Christas mic because it has happened before with the old mics.
|
7:15:53 PM | Jim_1751 | The popping sounds like a high resistance short.
|
7:15:54 PM | ajamison5579 | Jalu Amahi is good but adding additional hard drives currently requres a great deal of command line configuring unless you drop into GNOME or something
|
7:15:56 PM | SammySez | what was that site he just mentioned again?
|
7:16:07 PM | GregInTexas | it may be audio in general ...
|
7:16:15 PM | GregInTexas | it happens when both are talking
|
7:16:28 PM | Gadwil | RobbieF, Yours was fine there.
|
7:16:31 PM | GregInTexas | no
|
7:16:32 PM | antman1380 | your beating heart
|
7:16:33 PM | troy74 | sounds like rice crispies,its making me hungry
|
7:16:35 PM | SammySez | close the lid on the Mac, lets try that
|
7:16:37 PM | JediTorv | Jalu: ive not tried it b/c i want to get my hands dirty the old fashioned way so i can learn more by making a gazillion cli mistakes
|
7:16:40 PM | johariedga | just cause dachrista is using apple?
|
7:16:40 PM | Domenic | nope
|
7:16:43 PM | GregInTexas | not sure it is microphones
|
7:16:47 PM | Scorpio55 | AGC problem
|
7:16:48 PM | Gadwil | Popping happens when she talks. I dont get popping when Robbie talks.
|
7:16:49 PM | Jim_1751 | The short could be in a single mike
|
7:16:50 PM | Jalu | I am considering it ajamison5579. I am already running a FreeNas and an UnRaID server
|
7:16:53 PM | GregInTexas | something else
|
7:16:54 PM | Guest_4808 | how do you mount a external drive Ubuntu 11.04 ?

|
7:21:13 PM | SammySez | thx Gadwil
|
7:21:29 PM | antman1380 | i agree
|
7:21:31 PM | TheChrista | excellent! good to have you here tonight
|
7:21:31 PM | gpop7 | how are you christa
|
7:21:37 PM | Jim_1751 | Just plug the external drive in the USB port and it shouild appear. My "The Book" drive does.
|
7:21:43 PM | TheChrista | oh, not too shabby....trying to stay cool
|
7:21:44 PM | Gadwil | JediTorv, I see no reason why they arent supported. Typically Linux has support for everything first, and then again the APU has nothing to do with the kernel, it will simply see a GPU and CPU as if they were seperate I believe, unless they messed up the North Bridge.
|
7:21:52 PM | smittysmit | my best luck has been with Nvidia
|
7:21:58 PM | Domenic | ati is not nice for linux, had trouble on every ati powerd pcs until now... nvidia just runs fine
|
7:22:02 PM | gpop7 | same here.
|
7:22:18 PM | antman1380 | u just like the color green
|
7:22:19 PM | JediTorv | Gadwil: Thanks!
|
7:22:30 PM | TheChrista | nothing wrong with green
|
7:22:35 PM | Gadwil | RobbieF, ATI is easier to install by hand as far as drivers, NVIDIA can require some work to learn if you are new and installing drivers by hand.
|
7:22:39 PM | GregInTexas | my daughters netbook has ati ... runs perfect
|
7:22:44 PM | emiel1976_ | 11.04 mount everything by it self
|
7:23:03 PM | dtapia63 | I have sound but no video feed
|
7:23:08 PM | GregInTexas | of course, asus made that particular model for ubuntu ...
|
7:23:09 PM | Gadwil | JediTorv, I think of it this way... It would be very stupid if it didnt work, and then I would blame AMD for making a broken system.
|
7:23:26 PM | Domenic | ouuh wobbly windows
|
7:23:40 PM | emiel1976_ | Robbie
|
7:23:43 PM | SammySez | I have two portrait 1200x1600 displays running on 10.04 from my Dell laptop - NVIDIA
|
7:23:54 PM | emiel1976_ | RobbieF no Ati is faster for gaming
|
7:23:55 PM | antman1380 | Mandriva works on this HP ze4600
|
7:24:03 PM | chrisreich | RobbieF thank you for your insights. Youve confirmed everything else Ive found on the topic.
|
7:24:04 PM | GregInTexas | wow sammysez ... that sounds really nice!
|
7:24:08 PM | johariedga | you see, NVIDIA all da way
|
7:24:09 PM | SammySez | this video card alone was $1100 option
|
7:24:16 PM | Guest_4808 | I have a western Didgital pocket drive and Ubuntu does not see it ?
|
7:24:22 PM | JediTorv | Gadwil: lol. preach brother... the AIO m-itx solutions are coming down in price & the leap to make a mini sys is becoming more inticing (spell check)
|
7:24:24 PM | chrisreich | TheChrista Thank you oh so much for reading my question.
|
7:24:33 PM | SammySez | its great for reading / writing documentation
|
7:24:37 PM | TheChrista | oh, no problem. I saw it was yours and just had to read it
|
7:24:48 PM | agamotto | I just wish nVidia woudl come out with a way to figure out which of their cards gives you the best bang per watt, for those of us who dont want or need 750w+ PS
|
7:24:52 PM | Gadwil | RobbieF, I cant ever install Nvidia through X, I always have to quit when installing the driver by hand.
|
7:25:04 PM | chrisreich | RobbieF Im not a gamer.
|
7:25:14 PM | New2_Linu | when you are in a virtual environment are you protected from viruses?
|
7:25:15 PM | chrisreich | RobbieF chess is my game
|
7:25:32 PM | SammySez | the laptop power supply is 240 watts if I recall. it is about the size of my Asus netbook just by itself.
|
7:25:33 PM | antman1380 | i agree
|
7:25:35 PM | agamotto | New2_Linu, usually, yes
|
7:25:37 PM | ryburke | I vote Nvidia
|
7:25:38 PM | emiel1976_ | RobbieF yes for Linux is Nvidea but for gaming in Windows it is Ati by far
|
7:25:39 PM | Domenic | yes, nividia is the best descision for just linux
|
7:25:42 PM | Gadwil | Nvidia is also the most supported RobbieF, therefore is easier to get help with Linux.
|
7:26:03 PM | dtapia63 | had to change browsers to get the feed
|
7:26:03 PM | Gadwil | I used a 7300 SE and a new GTS 450.
|
7:26:21 PM | dtapia63 | ok in Firefox a no go in chrome
|
7:26:23 PM | agamotto | Gadwil, What is the power draw with the GTS 450?
|
7:26:29 PM | SammySez | Calypso sent me a cancellation notice due to lack of use - hee hee
|
7:26:29 PM | ajamison5579 | the Open Source drivers are very good for everyday work
|
7:26:30 PM | JediTorv | been running LinuxMint10 w/ an ATI 2600xt for about a year & not a hiccup.
|
7:26:30 PM | dman810 | dtapia63 - Glad you got it to work!
|
7:26:33 PM | ajamison5579 | if your not a gamer
|
7:26:37 PM | JVSCC | RobbieF, Do you have an agenda before each show that we can see b4 show starts etc?
|
7:26:40 PM | Gadwil | The main difference from Intel and AMD.. Cache size, thermal envelope, and overclock potential.
|
7:26:40 PM | Domenic | i have a geforce 9600 gt
|
7:26:53 PM | Domenic | which runs great with linux
|
7:26:53 PM | SammySez | I can just picture my avatar standing in the corner where I left it when I last logged off 4 months ago
|
7:26:54 PM | johariedga | i do too!
|
7:26:55 PM | Gadwil | agamotto, No idea, dont care, it runs great for my needs.
|
7:26:58 PM | emiel1976_ | RobbieF the pcs are now so fast that you dont need the fastest pc anymore for gaming.
|
7:26:59 PM | Scorpio55 | ledzep did you try guvcview with your logitech 9000 or wxcam or webcamstudio
|
7:27:05 PM | chrisreich | RobbieF thank you again!
|
7:27:14 PM | Gadwil | agamotto, it is low though, compared to most cards out today.
|
7:27:25 PM | agamotto | Gadwil, Ok, that is a start at least
|
7:28:20 PM | chrisreich | thanks also to everyone here in the chat room who chimed in with input on my question.
|
7:28:40 PM | dman810 | anyone know a Distribution to run on a 1 Gib HD and 73mB Ram
|
7:28:49 PM | agamotto | I have five presets on my monitor, depending on what I am doing
|
7:28:49 PM | Domenic | slitaz
|
7:28:50 PM | Gadwil | RobbieF, It has helped me as I have tested over the past week, I get to sleep much faster going straight from computer to bed.
|
7:28:58 PM | Domenic | dman810 try slitaz
|
7:29:07 PM | Gadwil | dman810, LFS.
|
7:29:16 PM | dtapia63 | it broke again but I still have sound
|
7:29:34 PM | dman810 | Thanks Domenic and Gadwil
|
7:29:38 PM | antman1380 | problems with laptop closing lid sleep mode
|
7:29:42 PM | Gadwil | I dont think it does any power saving, it basically changes the heat of the monitor from cool to warm and such.
|
7:29:45 PM | agamotto | TheChrista, Ubuntu has a checkered history with power saving stuff on laptops
|
7:29:45 PM | JVSCC | RobbieF my Samsung Epic 4G does that also.
|
7:29:46 PM | Gadwil | ^^ Flux
|
7:30:05 PM | antman1380 | i thought is was the fun key
|
7:30:08 PM | chrisreich | she said "ass"
|
7:30:10 PM | Gadwil | dman810, Dont do LFS... it is a PAIN.
|
7:30:13 PM | JVSCC | Ohmmm Christa said Arse!!!
|
7:30:20 PM | Gadwil | chrisreich, Dont repeat in chatrom.
|
7:30:35 PM | GregInTexas | flux capacitor
|
7:30:43 PM | dman810 | Gadwil - What makes it a PAIN?
|
7:30:44 PM | Scorpio55 | dman810 lubuntu or pepermint os work well
|
7:31:01 PM | antman1380 | usually you look in front of the laptop where the light is
|
7:31:05 PM | JediTorv | [lil kids voice] theChrista: ooooooooh. u said a wirty dord. oooooh im gonna tell lol.
|
7:31:08 PM | Gadwil | RobbieF, there was a virus in a certain game package for linux... not sure which one though.
|
7:31:25 PM | JVSCC | Kewl
|
7:31:26 PM | dman810 | thanks Scorpio55
|
7:31:26 PM | antman1380 | how can you work if your behind the laptop
|
7:31:32 PM | SammySez | she looks like she could care less
|
7:31:34 PM | SammySez | hee hee
|
7:31:42 PM | Gadwil | dman810, You are using a currently running linux system, LiveCD + USb drive? to compile, install, and configure the Linux Kernel and Compilers from scratch.
|
7:31:44 PM | chrisreich | so 73 milliBytes of RAM. how does one get such an odd value dman810?
|
7:31:58 PM | agamotto | Most people dont care about security/maintenance until something breaks....
|
7:32:03 PM | Gadwil | I run as root all the time.
|
7:32:07 PM | JVSCC | Mac Rocks!
|
7:32:21 PM | JediTorv | RobbieF & theChrista: "Cut it out before i turn this car around"
|
7:32:23 PM | mmdmurphy | Too bad so many windows games require you to run as admin / root
|
7:32:24 PM | agamotto | Gadwil, You arent most people... grin
|
7:32:30 PM | emiel1976_ | OS X is save lol
|
7:32:30 PM | JVSCC | Christa has a boo boo. ...?
|
7:32:31 PM | SammySez | she looks like she is getting a case of the vapors on this subject
|
7:32:35 PM | Gadwil | true agamotto.
|
7:32:52 PM | johariedga | paint thechristas laptop lid
|
7:32:56 PM | agamotto | SammySez, Why would she be farting?
|
7:33:23 PM | mmdmurphy | Oh, wait are we doing the weather again?
|
7:33:24 PM | SammySez | Ive used SkinIt before for good laptop skins
|
7:33:24 PM | antman1380 | 3.0
|
7:33:27 PM | JediTorv | [Biz Markie voice] She caught the VAPORS
|
7:33:32 PM | David_Maydew | It must have been warm, Robbie has been BBQing
|
7:33:33 PM | SammySez | they are relatively cheap too
|
7:33:42 PM | SammySez | I think like $20 for a large laptop skin
|
7:33:44 PM | agamotto | TheChrista, Did you folks have lake-effect fog due to the humidity?
|
7:33:52 PM | antman1380 | they just did it for you
|
7:34:15 PM | SammySez | I did a netbook for like $12 too
|
7:34:32 PM | dman810 | chrisreich I looked in the Bios and it said it had 72704K extended and 640K (Something, so I thought that i would add them together!) Thats not right?
|
7:34:39 PM | dman810 | 640K System
|
7:34:50 PM | agamotto | Nah, Sony isnt capable of being responsible for anything they do...
|
7:35:02 PM | troy74 | thats alot of bs
|
7:35:10 PM | David_Maydew | and Gadwil is running UNITY ;-D
|
7:35:16 PM | antman1380 | pogo pogo plug
|
7:35:24 PM | JVSCC | I want my PogoPlug!
|
7:35:37 PM | agamotto | Reality blink in.....
|
7:35:38 PM | David_Maydew | Ive finally gone back to 10.04LTS
|
7:35:40 PM | JVSCC | Switch to nackstage pass!
|
7:35:42 PM | antman1380 | like star trek chair
|
7:36:00 PM | antman1380 | :(
|
7:36:10 PM | GregInTexas | 10.04 rocks ... but I put 10.10 on my daughters and it works great
|
7:36:11 PM | mathman47 | That was strange, Backstage was about 30 seconds ahead of the regular feed.
|
7:36:23 PM | Jim_1751 | The popping stopped while Christa was doing the news, but has returned once Robbie started speaking. A short in his mike connection???
|
7:36:25 PM | johariedga | did u guys saw the mod from modmen the startreck mod??
|
7:36:26 PM | mmdmurphy | AND THE ROOT KIT THING FROM YEARS AGO
|
7:36:27 PM | troy74 | went to linux mint its run of the mill
|
7:36:30 PM | johariedga | its cool
|
7:36:32 PM | SammySez | I really like 9.10, but have stayed with 10.04 for now. I used to have more time to play, but now I wait for LTS revs
|
7:36:35 PM | Gadwil | Kinect.
|
7:36:37 PM | antman1380 | but the OS is down
|
7:36:39 PM | agamotto | Netflix might be the next company to suffer from outraged customers... glad I never started
|
7:36:51 PM | JVSCC | Dell sent me an offer for $699 for 15" laptop with xbox 360. ....
|
7:37:13 PM | agamotto | SammySez, Yes, you do get tired of beta testing after awhile
|
7:37:18 PM | Gadwil | MS will not die easily. They can have probably 4 complete bad years before they start to touch reserves in their banks
|
7:37:20 PM | JediTorv | Kinect + Linux FTW
|
7:37:24 PM | David_Maydew | As long as M$ dont try and brain wash the Mobile phone market
|
7:37:53 PM | GregInTexas | M$ is making some (maybe) smart moves of late
|
7:37:57 PM | agamotto | David_Maydew, Sadly, WP7 is very easy to use for most
|
7:38:01 PM | mathman47 | Thats the one I use!!!
|
7:38:02 PM | mmdmurphy | But you *usually* loose your router/wireless/cablemodem
|
7:38:06 PM | GregInTexas | unifying their operating systems
|
7:38:07 PM | Gadwil | The box comes into the shot, and the people get pixilated.
|
7:38:09 PM | chrisreich | that *looks* right, dman810 but how does one get 73Megs? 64Meg stick plus a 9Meg stick? You see why Im puzzled?
|
7:38:43 PM | mmdmurphy | US or Canadian?
|
7:38:47 PM | agamotto | chrisreich, Nah, you forget to subtract the memory likely being shared for video
|
7:38:52 PM | chrisreich | ahh. 1 Meg on-board, a 64, and an 8. That works.
|
7:39:14 PM | Gadwil | That model also has a cross-platform software controller! -- UPS Robbie is showing off.
|
7:39:16 PM | dman810 | Chrisriech - I am not sure this is a GAteway profile all-in-one PC. So who know what gateway did
|
7:39:32 PM | agamotto | dman810, Which model?
|
7:39:45 PM | SammySez | for which brand?
|
7:39:46 PM | JVSCC | yes
|
7:39:48 PM | johariedga | i have
|
7:39:51 PM | SammySez | CyberPower?
|
7:39:51 PM | mathman47 | I do currently.
|
7:39:52 PM | johariedga | their ok
|
7:39:55 PM | Gadwil | RobbieF, Popping is gone! ... for now. :)
|
7:39:57 PM | GregInTexas | yes ... Ive used several cyberpowers
|
7:40:03 PM | agamotto | Cyberpower is a good alternative to APC if they arent available in your area
|
7:40:04 PM | chrisreich | well whatever it is, youve got to go with the numbers that BIOS sees.
|
7:40:05 PM | GregInTexas | mine were much smaller
|
7:40:09 PM | Gadwil | echo!
|
7:40:11 PM | Domenic | echoooo
|
7:40:13 PM | chrisreich | feedback!
|
7:40:16 PM | mmdmurphy | Star Wars sound effect
|
7:40:17 PM | JVSCC | echo audio!
|
7:40:18 PM | David_Maydew | Woooo Echo Echo Echo
|
7:40:19 PM | GregInTexas | ECHO
|
7:40:22 PM | ajamison5579 | RobbieF in Stero
|
7:40:23 PM | ajamison5579 | lol
|
7:40:25 PM | agamotto | Hmmm, it does AVL?
|
7:40:27 PM | Jim_1751 | Audio echo
|
7:40:29 PM | Gadwil | not coming from his main audio I dont think.
|
7:40:29 PM | dman810 | agamotto - Model Gateway Profile Version 1 i Think!
|
7:40:29 PM | mathman47 | Ive had great luck with it. With all the storms my PC never missed a beat.
|
7:40:30 PM | dtapia63 | #robbief echo1
|
7:40:34 PM | antman1380 | fire the death star
|
7:40:39 PM | mathman47 | ECHO, echo
|
7:40:47 PM | Gadwil | Built in?1
|
7:40:49 PM | antman1380 | luke i am your father
|
7:40:49 PM | mmdmurphy | How much it HURTS when you drop it?
|
7:40:50 PM | troy74 | that is cool
|
7:40:51 PM | SammySez | I had a heck of a time getting my APC 1500 battery replaced under warranty. REALLY bad customer service. Took 8 weeks of emails and phone calls and monkeying around with the device before they finally conceded.
|
7:40:54 PM | agamotto | dman810, In that case, if memory serves there is at least 32 being used for video memory
|
7:41:08 PM | JediTorv | [admiral achbar] "its a trap!"
|
7:41:11 PM | GregInTexas | I much preferred cyberpower to APC ...
|
7:41:21 PM | antman1380 | Robbie is taking over my mind
|
7:41:35 PM | dtapia63 | LOL
|
7:41:43 PM | GregInTexas | the cyberpower makes you sound like darth vader
|
7:41:49 PM | agamotto | SammySez, I will bear that in mind when it is time for me to replace my current units
|
7:42:01 PM | chrisreich | I use APC 500VA units. If I still worked for a living, Id put backup on my alarm clock.
|
7:42:04 PM | troy74 | ahh i liked the echo better
|
7:42:09 PM | JediTorv | my old office had 4 big dirty 70s-beige APCs in each corner of the office
|
7:42:14 PM | SammySez | agamotto - they finally replaced it but after a LOT of monkeying around with them
|
7:42:27 PM | antman1380 | dose it come with light saber
|
7:42:42 PM | SammySez | so how big is that UPS and how much ($CDN obviously)
|
7:42:47 PM | mmdmurphy | you mean DOES?
|
7:43:04 PM | antman1380 | robots in disguise
|
7:43:15 PM | agamotto | Even if one uses the power switch on the UPS, as I do?
|
7:43:25 PM | GregInTexas | thats very cool actually
|
7:43:44 PM | JediTorv | [80s optimus] "Transform and ROLL OUT"
|
7:43:49 PM | antman1380 | must come from cyber tron
|
7:44:08 PM | SammySez | so how big is that UPS and how much ($CDN obviously)
|
7:44:09 PM | mmdmurphy | And now back to our show....
|
7:44:18 PM | agamotto | I just like the fact that they know what Linux is and offer something for software.
|
7:44:36 PM | ajamison5579 | what wattage is that UPS RobbieF
|
7:44:44 PM | ajamison5579 | nvm
|
7:44:45 PM | Gadwil | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16842102082 .. Here is a comparable model, if not, the one that Robbie is showing.
|
7:44:45 PM | GregInTexas | my fam all uses laptops
|
7:44:56 PM | GregInTexas | no need for UPSs anymore
|
7:45:00 PM | SammySez | sweet so it is a 1500mw - how much?
|
7:45:02 PM | BattleTank | Any reason why the electrical supply is so bad there in canada
|
7:45:21 PM | JediTorv | Agamotto: true b/c linux usually gets treated like the red-headed step child even tho its the backbone of our "connected" lives
|
7:45:26 PM | agamotto | BattleTank, Not just there... surges/brownouts are increasing all over North America
|
7:45:37 PM | Gadwil | This one might be closer: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16842102048

7:49:09 PM | Jim_1751 | Im looking for a reliable video editor. I like Sony Vegas studio, but it is expensive and it is windows. Is kdenlive a good one?
|
7:49:12 PM | Gadwil | It will do much better and is expandable in the future... Will cost more up front though.
|
7:49:14 PM | BattleTank | ok SammySez , i have never come acorss a surge issue here
|
7:49:24 PM | David_Maydew | OMG... PLASMA, giver of RF (Radio Frequency) interference!!
|
7:49:34 PM | johariedga | agamoto, kool gracias
|
7:49:41 PM | mmdmurphy | Gadwil - not to be impolite, but garbage picking sounds like a better idea. Find someone who is throwing out/replacing...
|
7:49:41 PM | agamotto | BattleTank, Hug your utility
|
7:49:43 PM | Gadwil | jim_1751, Yes, and Openshot, they are probably the 2 best choices in Linux, Openshot being the preferred editor.
|
7:49:47 PM | antman1380 | there a graphics card that can do this $$
|
7:49:52 PM | JediTorv | XBMC is quite a "techy" solution for a lot of ppl - - - its gr8 - - - but you have to dig in the guts to get it just to ones taste
|
7:50:12 PM | Jim_1751 | Gadwil...thanks.
|
7:50:16 PM | Gadwil | mmdmurphy, That will do too, either way, pre-built boxes are typically underpowered and very restricted.
|
7:50:35 PM | aetius_ | hello all....im new...still using windows but considering linux
|
7:50:41 PM | agamotto | Gadwil, Boxee box might be a reasonable compromise
|
7:50:44 PM | Gadwil | hello aetius_.
|
7:50:49 PM | {BBI}Nexus{BBI} | @jeditorv XBMC is a breeze to set up and use.
|
7:50:54 PM | David_Maydew | Hi Netius
|
7:50:55 PM | chrisreich | greetings and welcome, aetius_
|
7:51:13 PM | mathman47 | Comcast has a 250 GB cap/month.
|
7:51:18 PM | aetius_ | hi gadwil and chrisreich ..thank you
|
7:51:20 PM | Gadwil | agamotto, still, not expandable and underpowered, as I hear, HD it has some problems with.
|
7:51:21 PM | antman1380 | Boxee
|
7:51:23 PM | agamotto | RobbieF, Most American ISPs are already trying to move that way... I now have a 150Gb cap thanks to ATT
|
7:51:33 PM | dman810 | Domenic - Do you know is SLITAZ debian based?
|
7:51:38 PM | antman1380 | ruku
|
7:51:45 PM | agamotto | Gadwil, True... but for most it might be reasonable
|
7:51:46 PM | Gadwil | aetius_, How much do you know of computers?
|
7:51:58 PM | chrisreich | dman810 Slitaz is based on Slackware.
|
7:52:00 PM | David_Maydew | and UK ISPs like Sky and Virgin have no caps
|
7:52:05 PM | Domenic | dman810 slitaz is not based on debian, its a original distro
|
7:52:14 PM | Gadwil | agaomotto, very true, if people can figure out the interface.
|
7:52:15 PM | dman810 | thanks!
|
7:52:24 PM | SammySez | enuff with the artsy stuff. make it square, small and flat
|
7:52:25 PM | aetius_ | i just built this one about 3 weeks ago
|
7:52:26 PM | SammySez | ugh
|
7:52:28 PM | agamotto | David_Maydew, Yet another reason to move to Europe/UK!
|
7:52:45 PM | dman810 | NCIS
|
7:52:46 PM | agamotto | Bones?
|
7:52:49 PM | chrisreich | Hells Kitchen!
|
7:52:51 PM | David_Maydew | I pay ?7.50 a month for unlimited bandwidth
|
7:52:57 PM | Gadwil | aetius_, On a scale of 1 - 5, how comfortable are you about breaking things?
|
7:53:01 PM | {BBI}Nexus{BBI} | @David_Maydew Virgin traffic shapes. They throttle you during the peak times.
|
7:53:09 PM | Gadwil | aetius_, Software wise!
|
7:53:10 PM | BattleTank | virgin do throttle at peak times David_Maydew
|
7:53:14 PM | JediTorv | Nexus: it is... for must of "us", but "others" may be a tad bit daunted by having to peel an "easy" layer or two back to get things 100% just for their tastes. like i said - its gr8
|
7:53:28 PM | David_Maydew | no worries Battle Tank
|
7:53:32 PM | antman1380 | xbox or windows media center
|
7:53:33 PM | SammySez | I pay $60 / month for 768k up / down. But I am also 20+ miles from the nearest cell tower. :)
|
7:53:33 PM | David_Maydew | Glad I have Sky
|
7:53:33 PM | agamotto | I gave up cable tv service here, and the only thing I truly miss is Discovery and NatGeo
|
7:53:41 PM | aetius_ | ha ha ha 2 on breaking things....not so good with software ...
|
7:53:52 PM | aetius_ | just learning about linux
|
7:53:53 PM | Gadwil | I pay $60 for 12mbps down /640 kbps up.
|
7:54:02 PM | SammySez | agamotto - good for you. it is good for the brain to kick tv to the curb and think for yourself
|
7:54:06 PM | David_Maydew | SammySez, thats expensive
|
7:54:14 PM | David_Maydew | for slooooow internet
|
7:54:15 PM | chrisreich | SammySez not quite at the end of the earth, but you can see it from where you are! :-)
|
7:54:27 PM | emiel1976_ | RobbieF is Category5.tv also on XBMC?
|
7:54:32 PM | SammySez | David_Maydew I am way up in the sticks as well though
|
7:54:32 PM | agamotto | SammySez, More in the neighborhood of no reason to pay for ~80 channels I dont watch
|
7:54:33 PM | David_Maydew | I get 16mb for the ?7,50
|
7:54:35 PM | GregInTexas | ubuntu linux LTS (long term support) might be your best bet aetius
|
7:54:42 PM | Gadwil | aetius_, I suggest starting with Fedora or Zorin OS then. They are each simple and have a bit of support. Zorin is typically as "Ubuntu" though since that is what it is based off of.
|
7:54:51 PM | SammySez | I have about a 60 mile view horizon to horizon here
|
7:55:07 PM | David_Maydew | Gadwil, Fedora as a starter Distro???
|
7:55:09 PM | Gadwil | Or Kubuntu aetius_, that is another good choice to start.
|
7:55:15 PM | johariedga | is MIro spanish for I see?
|
7:55:18 PM | David_Maydew | Id go Mint or Ubuntu
|
7:55:19 PM | antman1380 | i also used a netbook
|
7:55:24 PM | antman1380 | Banshee
|
7:55:29 PM | JediTorv | TWC is like an evil, callous bandwidth landlord... they empty your pockets for the "rent" & never keep the "pipes" open & clean.
|
7:55:30 PM | GregInTexas | Ubuntu has gillions of answers ... just google the question
|
7:55:31 PM | Gadwil | David, Yes, it is actually very nice for starters.
|
7:55:33 PM | imutant | hi all
|
7:55:33 PM | Scorpio55 | I used to play with this distro based on Kubuntu http://www.linuxmce.com/
|
7:55:43 PM | GregInTexas | Fedora or other linux distros, not quite as easy
|
7:55:45 PM | agamotto | RobbieF, I use Miro to pull down The John Stewart Show, Colbert Report, and Rachel Maddow...
|
7:55:47 PM | smittysmit | Miro has the best HD science shows from Earth-Touch.com
|
7:55:51 PM | SammySez | agamotto - either way, this world would have a lot fewer issues if people would cancel television and return to common sense thinking for a bit
|
7:55:51 PM | Gadwil | I dont recommend Ubuntu anymore for the obvious reasons, it is kinda making everyone mad.
|
7:55:51 PM | aetius_ | great ...thank you ...so zorin or kubuntu
|
7:55:59 PM | agamotto | SammySez, agreed
|
7:56:00 PM | Jalu | Does anyone watch Crackle?
|
7:56:00 PM | chrisreich | aetius_ Ubuntu 10.04 version is HIGHLY recommend for your first attempt at using Linux.
|
7:56:04 PM | GregInTexas | although, Mint is ultra easy
|
7:56:12 PM | Gadwil | Sammysez, I say we simply take down TV and go netcasting only.
|
7:56:13 PM | antman1380 | i have been trying to install Mandrake 8.1
|
7:56:14 PM | David_Maydew | If you dont like Windows 7 style desktop then Ubuntu
|
7:56:21 PM | agamotto | smittysmit, Examples?
|
7:56:29 PM | imutant | sorry for being late
|
7:56:30 PM | JVSCC | Christa Rocks!
|
7:56:34 PM | David_Maydew | Mandrake is old isnt it??
|
7:56:40 PM | SammySez | Crackle - I havent heard that term in a while. Used to use Hulu but just dont have the time
|
7:56:43 PM | troy74 | i cancelled my cable last month,80 bucks a month for mindless drivel im yet to miss
|
7:56:46 PM | agamotto | Yah, it is now Mandriva?
|
7:56:47 PM | chrisreich | Mandrake is obsolete
|
7:56:56 PM | chrisreich | Magea
|
7:56:59 PM | SammySez | @Gadwil - thats the plan. I always envangelize that model. :)
|
7:57:04 PM | antman1380 | i got suse 7.1 for powerpc comes with 7 cds
|
7:57:04 PM | Scorpio55 | David_Maydew did you ever try LinuxMCE
|
7:57:05 PM | agamotto | Ah, yet another name
|
7:57:08 PM | SammySez | evangelize even
|
7:57:10 PM | David_Maydew | Mageia looks good
|
7:57:15 PM | David_Maydew | but its not Debian
|
7:57:16 PM | David_Maydew | lol
|
7:57:23 PM | antman1380 | you tube
|
7:57:27 PM | agamotto | Miro has Category5
|
7:57:34 PM | antman1380 | web site
|
7:57:41 PM | Jalu | As good if not better than Hulu SammySez
|
7:57:44 PM | GregInTexas | suse and fedora are nice, but package management not quite as easy for beginners
|
7:57:45 PM | JediTorv | RobbieF: ive used a combo of : HD free OTA with Crackle, Hulu, CBS, & WB over broadband (with a dash of torrents lol).
|
7:58:11 PM | Gadwil | aetius_, It would be best to post something like this in the Forums, we can help much more in there than the chatroom, and debates go a little better that way too.
|
7:58:35 PM | johariedga | is itunes available for linux?
|
7:58:44 PM | aetius_ | ok gadwil......ill do that.... :-)
|
7:58:58 PM | agamotto | johariedga, I can guarantee that will never happen
|
7:58:58 PM | antman1380 | use play on linux
|
7:58:59 PM | chrisreich | no itunes for linux. WINE doesnt cut it either.
|
7:59:00 PM | dman810 | Beer
|
7:59:04 PM | chrisreich | >???
|
7:59:09 PM | imutant | robbief I am on android. Your web chat rocks on android
|
7:59:12 PM | johariedga | The Christa is itunes available for linux?
|
7:59:18 PM | Gadwil | johariedga, absolutely not. No one would ever accept installing that junk on a Linux box... it would be disgraceful for most. Way too bloated and proprietary for most Linux users.
|
7:59:20 PM | johariedga | oh ok
|
7:59:20 PM | emiel1976_ | johariedga yes and no
|
7:59:29 PM | agamotto | RobbieF, They can always ask me, I have been doing the net telly thing for over 5 years now
|
7:59:31 PM | johariedga | why is that agamoto?
|
7:59:36 PM | antman1380 | there a webchat for android
|
7:59:48 PM | GregInTexas | iTunes for linux hurts my head to even think about
|
7:59:50 PM | agamotto | johariedga, Apple is allergic to linux anything, unless they can own the rights to it
|
8:00:00 PM | antman1380 | ogg
|
8:00:02 PM | GregInTexas | wish there was winamp, though
|
8:00:10 PM | David_Maydew | There is
|
8:00:14 PM | chrisreich | RobbieF remember its pronounced "BAY-tuh". Class repeat...
|
8:00:15 PM | johariedga | just thought about that but didnt knew
|
8:00:15 PM | imutant | I think I am on the regular page
|
8:00:20 PM | David_Maydew | Its called Audacious
|
8:00:23 PM | emiel1976_ | johariedga Because Apple wants to controll everything and with Linux they cant
|
8:00:23 PM | Gadwil | With a good enough router, streaming over WiFi is decent, will get choppy at times defenantly. Unless you have N with MIMO on router and chip, then you could get it great due to full duplex processing.
|
8:00:27 PM | antman1380 | cat6
|
8:00:45 PM | Scorpio55 | johariedga you buy music from Amazon and Ubuntu One1 store via Banshee and Rythmbox
|
8:00:50 PM | agamotto | Nah... check out BlueJeansCables... you will find a decent price for a 50 HDMI run that is shielded
|
8:00:59 PM | troy74 | i watch everything on my monitor,big enough for me
|
8:01:02 PM | johariedga | what would be an aternative for itunes
|
8:01:05 PM | David_Maydew | Audacious with Tunapie = WinAmp
|
8:01:12 PM | antman1380 | A] cybertro
|
8:01:12 PM | GregInTexas | I saw Audacious advertised ... but Ive been trying to do what I need with rythm box and banshee ... not there yet
|
8:01:13 PM | imutant | But I am not watching the show
|
8:01:22 PM | JediTorv | RobbieF: long hdmi cables are INSANELY inexpensive on monoprice.com. they work like a _______ (insert your own colorful word)
|
8:01:27 PM | antman1380 | okay now
|
8:01:30 PM | Gadwil | Oh yea, In case anyone takes that iTunes thing seriously, I was joking, except for the bloated proprietary part, that is true on any system.
|
8:01:30 PM | agamotto | RobbieF, The usual live glitches!
|
8:01:34 PM | GregInTexas | Tunapie?
|
8:01:52 PM | David_Maydew | its a Shoutcast/Icecast radio search
|
8:01:59 PM | GregInTexas | ah
|
8:02:01 PM | David_Maydew | and TV channels
|
8:02:13 PM | gpop7 | the popping stop
|
8:02:18 PM | GregInTexas | I saw a post that winamp works perfectly with wine ... havent tried it yet
|
8:02:19 PM | Gadwil | TheChrista looks so thoughtful.
|
8:02:34 PM | troy74 | great show guys,nice to be able to watch live for a rare change
|
8:02:37 PM | agamotto | GregInTexas, Winamp has been stable under WINE for some time now
|
8:02:47 PM | antman1380 | i have some Karaoke mikes would that work
|
8:02:52 PM | GregInTexas | cool, agamotto!
|
8:02:53 PM | JVSCC | Christa big beutiful eyes always makes RobbieF show sooo much better...
|
8:03:18 PM | agamotto | GregInTexas, I have even been told that DDO runs very well under WINE these days
|
8:03:41 PM | GregInTexas | Im going to download it after the show!
|
8:04:02 PM | TheChrista | aww...you guys are too nice....shucks!
|
8:04:03 PM | TheChrista | haha
|
8:04:11 PM | David_Maydew | right I must go to bed, only had 4hrs sleep last night again
|
8:04:25 PM | Gadwil | TheChrista, Say " Shucks " on air, in a southern accent!
|
8:04:26 PM | David_Maydew | and the wife is up at 6am lol
|
8:04:28 PM | JVSCC | Where is homeland?
|
8:04:41 PM | TheChrista | I hope you guys had fun tonight
|
8:04:44 PM | agamotto | Well, for some, Sasketchewan IS another planet

|
8:05:12 PM | TheChrista | miracuously, its attached to the beautiful country we call Canada
|
8:05:14 PM | JediTorv | RobbieF & theChrista: are all Canadians so laid back? all you guys seem like folks to have a pint with!
|
8:05:19 PM | GregInTexas | good show yall
|
8:05:29 PM | TheChrista | Silly Canadians, not even aware of whats in the middle of their country holding together the ends
|
8:05:31 PM | Gadwil | TheChrista, Have an amazing few weeks away then.
|
8:05:39 PM | agamotto | JediTorv, Canadians are like Americans, without the guns!
|
8:05:42 PM | TheChrista | haha, I am not at all french!
