| 07:00:57 PM | keckeckec | Which feed has the lest delay? Or is it location dependent?
|

|
| 07:01:23 PM | _Jot_ | radio has the least delay and VLC
|
| 07:01:24 PM | Dennis_Kelley | Hello all!
|
| 07:01:33 PM | _Jot_ | youtube is the slowest
|
| 07:02:12 PM | Dennis_Kelley | is it going to be a pre recorded show?
|
| 07:02:35 PM | Dennis_Kelley | Bekah - Great to see you on the show!
|
| 07:03:02 PM | RobbieF | Hey Dennis_Kelley!
|
| 07:03:22 PM | Dennis_Kelley | RobbieF - Glad to see you too!

|
| 07:04:48 PM | Sr_Wences | I never got into Stargate.
|
| 07:04:54 PM | eek-a-mouse | I do not like sci fi and fantasy movies/series
|
| 07:04:58 PM | ledzep | test
|
| 07:06:12 PM | RobbieF | we will try not to hold that against you eek-a-mouse ;)
|
| 07:06:17 PM | RobbieF | Hey sprintcowboy
|
| 07:06:39 PM | eek-a-mouse | ahha RobbieF
|
| 07:06:45 PM | RobbieF | Sr_Wences we got into SG-1 specifically because we were trying to fill a void of Star Trek... it took a bit of time, but once we got into it, we fell in love with it.
|
| 07:07:01 PM | _Jot_ | it took seconds to download files and such and they were very small!
|
| 07:07:10 PM | _Jot_ | about the same size as an MP3 but with video
|
| 07:07:13 PM | _Jot_ | for mobile files
|
| 07:07:45 PM | RobbieF | http://www.baldnerd.com/why-am-i-so-excited-about-this-transcoder-thing/
|
| 07:07:55 PM | Sr_Wences | I may give it a shot - its on NetFlix, right?
|
| 07:08:00 PM | RobbieF | Yes
|
| 07:08:33 PM | RobbieF | Like any ... "new" ... show, give it 8-10 episodes before deciding.
|
| 07:09:02 PM | RobbieF | Yay; Category5 Radio is working perfectly tonight _Jot_ - feeding directly from Telestream Wirecast.
|
| 07:09:05 PM | Dennis_Kelley | Seven Years of awesome tech info and new friends!
|
| 07:09:18 PM | RobbieF | :-D
|
| 07:09:33 PM | _Jot_ | radio is always amazing :)
|
| 07:10:03 PM | RobbieF | well, the past few weeks we had to pipe it off our console
|
| 07:10:25 PM | RobbieF | this week, we got the feed working directly from Wirecast (so you can even hear the commercial and intro music)
|
| 07:10:34 PM | _Jot_ | I liked hearing the other things :)
|
| 07:10:42 PM | RobbieF | :)
|
| 07:11:09 PM | Guest_4031 | Robbie is it possible to set up persistence on any OS other than Ubuntu based systems..So even if my PC crashed I could have my OS anywhere I go..IE Point Linux
|
| 07:11:38 PM | Guest_4031 | on a pen drive sorry left that out
|
| 07:11:43 PM | RobbieF | Guest_4031 do you mean redundancy to keep you up and running in event of a crash?
|
| 07:11:59 PM | RobbieF | oh
|
| 07:12:13 PM | RobbieF | if you dd a copy of that pen drive once a week maybe?
|
| 07:14:10 PM | invinciblemutant | hello
|
| 07:14:16 PM | invinciblemutant | good day everyone
|
| 07:14:30 PM | keckeckec | invinciblemutant -- hi hi hi

|
| 07:16:45 PM | RobbieF | +1 Dennis_Kelley
|
| 07:16:52 PM | RobbieF | http://cat5.tv/mergeide
|
| 07:18:01 PM | _Jot_ | you could send a notification to yourself in the future for episode 370 :)
|
| 07:18:09 PM | RobbieF | http://www.category5.tv/episodes/307.php - Part 1 of this series.
|
| 07:18:21 PM | RobbieF | ^^ _Jot_ http://futureme.org
|
| 07:18:23 PM | Guest_4031 | That doesn't answer the question...How do you create persistence..a very simple question
|
| 07:18:47 PM | RobbieF | oh you want persistence; I thought you were looking for redundancy sorry
|
| 07:19:07 PM | Guest_4031 | ]Yup
|
| 07:20:22 PM | RobbieF | Is this what you want? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCD/Persistence?action=show&redirect=LiveCDPersistence
|
| 07:20:39 PM | RobbieF | I _believe_ that has step-by-step.
|
| 07:20:48 PM | RobbieF | Some usb installers these days have the option.
|
| 07:20:53 PM | RobbieF | (automatically)
|
| 07:21:27 PM | _Jot_ | windows doesn't support storing OS data on a stick, so I don't think the question can be answered
|
| 07:22:02 PM | Sovereign | Is this prerecorded?
|
| 07:22:10 PM | GoodGuy | No
|
| 07:22:22 PM | GoodGuy | most shows are live
|
| 07:22:44 PM | Guest_4031 | Did you not read the question...Remember I said it works for UBUNTU based OS..So can I recreate persistence with ARCH or Debian ...How is persistence set up...Just ask Robbie he might know
|
| 07:22:52 PM | Sovereign | Robbie dosent seem to be typing
|
| 07:22:55 PM | _Jot_ | sometimes the feauture is recorded and the rest of th show is live but that is also only if something involves a lot of time
|
| 07:23:12 PM | RobbieF | Sorry Guest_4031 - having to multitask :)
|
| 07:23:41 PM | GoodGuy | RobbieF: - Do you need two keys to run Windows native and in a VM?
|
| 07:23:44 PM | _Jot_ | you asked about any OS other than Ubuntu and you can't do it on any OS, just on some :)
|
| 07:24:03 PM | RobbieF | GoodGuy - yes. This would be to _replace_ the running OS (eg., re-format the laptop with Linux)
|
| 07:24:11 PM | RobbieF | you need a second license if you wish to run _both_
|
| 07:24:38 PM | GoodGuy | That isn't good news... several hundred to use it on the same actual hardware
|
| 07:24:59 PM | RobbieF | The plan is, virtualize it so you no longer need it to be the host os
|
| 07:25:01 PM | GoodGuy | Doesn't seem fair for home users
|
| 07:25:07 PM | RobbieF | No, Microsoft often is not.
|
| 07:25:14 PM | GoodGuy | True :-)
|
| 07:25:21 PM | RobbieF | Free as in freedom is a very attractive model. Linux knows all about it, and that's why we're here.
|
| 07:25:58 PM | Sovereign | The entire laptop is a VM
|
| 07:25:59 PM | _Jot_ | you do need a 2nd key if you have an OEM-license as well, because that is linked to the computer
|
| 07:26:05 PM | GoodGuy | Just be nice to run it native for games on bare metal and as a VM for regular apps
|
| 07:26:30 PM | GoodGuy | I have a regular license, not an OEM
|
| 07:27:29 PM | keckeckec | Great job, RobbieF. I'll catch the download. Gotta run now. Bye
|
| 07:27:36 PM | Dennis_Kelley | cool!
|
| 07:27:37 PM | RobbieF | cheers keckeckec
|
| 07:27:58 PM | Dennis_Kelley | see ya keckeckec
|
| 07:28:33 PM | GoodGuy | RobbieF: Is this available on The Meat replacement (Youtube?)
|
| 07:29:00 PM | RobbieF | GoodGuy - lots to come to http://linuxtechshow.com and this is one of the features, yes. It just has to be edited down.
|
| 07:29:11 PM | GoodGuy | Thank you
|
| 07:29:31 PM | Sovereign | Think I need to watch last weeks show.
|
| 07:29:51 PM | _Jot_ | they are all available for viewing :)
|
| 07:30:52 PM | GoodGuy | Microsoft will allow you to trade GOLD for IRON
|
| 07:30:54 PM | Sovereign | What are the spects on that laptop
|
| 07:31:07 PM | RobbieF | You can also turn in your platinum for poop.
|
| 07:31:07 PM | Sovereign | specs
|
| 07:31:45 PM | GoodGuy | There is a Firefox extension to do a Win 8 new tab
|
| 07:32:48 PM | Dennis_Kelley | does anyone have one of those projection keyboard. it uses laser to project a keyboard on the table and knows what keys you press.
|
| 07:33:02 PM | RobbieF | I don't have one, but have tried it.
|
| 07:33:29 PM | _Jot_ | I know about them but haven't tried them, they don't seem to work very well for me I'm sure
|
| 07:33:37 PM | GoodGuy | There is a Chrome extension to do a Win 8 new tab
|
| 07:34:03 PM | RobbieF | There is a GIMP plugin that makes colored squares.
|
| 07:34:29 PM | Dennis_Kelley | because they can!
|
| 07:34:58 PM | eek-a-mouse | I have 200 gb of stuff i wanna back up online, im using linux, what do you recommand?
|
| 07:35:20 PM | RobbieF | Dreamhost.
|
| 07:35:37 PM | eek-a-mouse | im gonna check it out
|
| 07:35:39 PM | RobbieF | http://cat5.tv/dreamhost
|
| 07:35:46 PM | RobbieF | I can get you a coupon code

|
| 07:36:41 PM | RobbieF | hmm, it says 50 GB which isn't enough for you.. let me look into it...
|
| 07:37:20 PM | RobbieF | Hmmm...
|
| 07:37:27 PM | RobbieF | I'm sure you can get 200 GB with them too
|
| 07:37:33 PM | Dennis_Kelley | throw that paper! you are so tough
|
| 07:37:34 PM | RobbieF | but it's the cheapest solution, I reckon.
|
| 07:37:44 PM | GoodGuy | CrashPlan?
|
| 07:37:46 PM | RobbieF | worth looking into eek-a-mouse
|
| 07:38:23 PM | Sovereign | Why not just run BSDfor the VM
|
| 07:38:39 PM | GoodGuy | RobbieF: - Have you considered affiliate programs like the Linux Action Show offers?
|
| 07:38:50 PM | Dennis_Kelley | true say!
|
| 07:38:55 PM | RobbieF | Dreamhost pays us GoodGuy ;)
|
| 07:38:55 PM | eek-a-mouse | RobbieF: it was more something to use only to back up audio and video, but it's a log of GB
|
| 07:39:14 PM | eek-a-mouse | a lot
|
| 07:39:18 PM | GoodGuy | I know.... I meant Amazon, etc for users buying stuff
|
| 07:39:19 PM | RobbieF | eek-a-mouse would a Pogoplug work?
|

|

|
| 07:52:59 PM | Bekah | Hi there TNFrank
|
| 07:53:00 PM | _Jot_ | TVs often have different resolutions depending on the input-source too
|
| 07:53:21 PM | TNFrank | @RobbieF, update, I did install Point Linux OS and I'm lovin' it. thanks for reading my question on air.
|
| 07:53:35 PM | RobbieF | Wonderful! Glad you love the distro!
|
| 07:53:54 PM | TNFrank | Also installed Compiz so I'm doing those cool beam up opens with windows and burn downs too.
|
| 07:53:58 PM | RobbieF | Good to find a Linux distro to be passionate about.
|
| 07:54:32 PM | TNFrank | It was actually what I was looking for when I went to Linux Mint 15 MATE but since Mint 15 is end of live in April '14 I needed to find something else to use.
|
| 07:54:49 PM | RobbieF | TNFrank did you learn about it from episode 290?
|
| 07:55:04 PM | TNFrank | Yep, 290, watched it a couple times
|
| 07:55:11 PM | RobbieF | Awesome.
|
| 07:55:18 PM | RobbieF | Thanks for watching :)
|
| 07:55:42 PM | TNFrank | You are more then welcome Robbie, Thanks for doing such a great show for us guys that love Linux.
|

|
| 07:59:32 PM | RobbieF | Instant Messenger
|
| 07:59:36 PM | RobbieF | It connects to everything
|
| 07:59:38 PM | TNFrank | Remember, I used OS X for 11 years and got really Tech Lazy, LOL
|
| 07:59:42 PM | RobbieF | I use it for ICQ, IRC and Facebook
|
| 07:59:50 PM | Dennis_Kelley | RobbieF is old? is that what you said?
|
| 08:00:04 PM | TNFrank | Facebook chat would be another option too then.
|
| 08:00:16 PM | RobbieF | Yes, it saves me having to leave Facebook open
|
| 08:00:25 PM | RobbieF | = less distracting but still able to chat
|
| 08:00:28 PM | TNFrank | I"m just so glad I picked up that Roku a few months ago, I've gotten so many great Tech shows, it's awesome

|
| 08:04:05 PM | GoodGuy | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9VhcZGcbGE
|
| 08:04:14 PM | GoodGuy | He reviewed Beta 2
|
| 08:04:37 PM | revdjenk | Hey what happened at the end? No sound
|
| 08:04:43 PM | Dennis_Kelley | Hello GoodGuy how you been?
|
| 08:04:47 PM | RobbieF | I hear you there TNFrank - I'm at that exact place.
|
| 08:04:54 PM | TNFrank | Ubuntu 12.04 was ok, especially coming over from OS X, both being somewhat icon based but it just wasn't doing it for me once I got more use to Linux.
|
| 08:04:54 PM | GoodGuy | not too bad
|
| 08:05:01 PM | GoodGuy | How about you?
|
| 08:05:09 PM | RobbieF | refdjenk did YouTube cut us off?
|
| 08:05:11 PM | napa_polarbear | napa 73 w6huy
|
| 08:05:12 PM | RobbieF | sorry!!
|
| 08:05:31 PM | revdjenk | Yes to robbief
|
| 08:05:33 PM | TNFrank | I gave Elementary OS a try, Bodhi, AntiX, nothing felt right
|
| 08:05:57 PM | GoodGuy | Mint seems prety good
|
| 08:06:03 PM | TNFrank | Mint 15 MATE was good but since it was Ubuntu based it was more removed from the Debian roots then I wanted to be.
|
| 08:06:04 PM | revdjenk | I was on my tablet, so can't run bid and chat
|
| 08:06:12 PM | GoodGuy | every distro has its quirks
|
| 08:06:16 PM | Dennis_Kelley | GoodGuy - Not bad getting over a cold. had a power outage in Grand Blanc last week, missed the show. Been working at the Renaissance Festival in Holly. Very busy two months
|
| 08:06:21 PM | revdjenk | Vid
|
| 08:06:26 PM | TNFrank | I guess LMDE would be more Debian then "regular" Mint.
|
| 08:06:38 PM | GoodGuy | Is the fair still going?
|
| 08:06:47 PM | Dennis_Kelley | yes two more weekends
|
| 08:06:48 PM | revdjenk | Tnfrank yes i a

|
| 08:06:56 PM | revdjenk | Agree
|
| 08:07:01 PM | GoodGuy | I would like to see it
|
| 08:07:14 PM | Dennis_Kelley | GoodGuy - are you able to make it out there>
|

|
| 08:07:22 PM | Dennis_Kelley | *?
|
| 08:07:29 PM | TNFrank | I've been trying to get as many folks using Linux as I can around my little town.
|
| 08:07:37 PM | GoodGuy | My wife can't walk much and I am limited driving
|
| 08:07:47 PM | GoodGuy | same here revdjenk
|
| 08:08:02 PM | GoodGuy | 64-bit Mint 15 Cinnamon
|
| 08:08:09 PM | TNFrank | I've been unemployed for almost 4 years and over the last couple months I've started buying laptops off of EBay and installing Linux on em' then selling them for a small profit.
|
| 08:08:17 PM | TNFrank | Trying to make ends meet.
|
| 08:08:22 PM | revdjenk | Yay yep goodguy
|
| 08:08:42 PM | Dennis_Kelley | GoodGuy - unfortunately the terrain is no very good for a lot of people.
|
| 08:08:53 PM | revdjenk | That is using your head tnfrank
|
| 08:08:58 PM | GoodGuy | How are the users taking to a preinstalled Linux TNFrank ?
|
| 08:08:58 PM | TNFrank | Mostly Ubuntu 12.04 since it's pretty simple to use and most folks aren't too computer savy.
|
| 08:09:27 PM | RobbieF | revdjenk where did it cut us off?
|
| 08:09:28 PM | TNFrank | Some wonder what in heck it is and I'll explain to them that it's not as virus prone as Windows and they like that.
|
| 08:09:42 PM | GoodGuy | TRhe top two deadly cities in the USA
|
| 08:09:50 PM | revdjenk | Right at the 8 pm
|
| 08:09:52 PM | TNFrank | Then when they see how it works(i.e. like a "normal" op system) then like it.
|
| 08:09:57 PM | GoodGuy | Flint is number one and Detroit two
|
| 08:10:33 PM | revdjenk | Goodguy why to oakland u and lived in utica
|
| 08:10:44 PM | TNFrank | I lived in Taylor, MI from birth to age 11, we moved in '72 and it was pretty bad back then.
|
| 08:10:46 PM | GoodGuy | Setup a recovery type partition and you will be popular as heck
|
| 08:11:14 PM | revdjenk | @went
|
| 08:11:14 PM | GoodGuy | Our son graduated from Oakland Univ
|
| 08:11:21 PM | TNFrank | We'd go boating on the Detroit River and Winsor was right across the river
|
| 08:11:22 PM | revdjenk | Yay
|
| 08:11:39 PM | revdjenk | Windsor was.
|
| 08:11:43 PM | GoodGuy | He bowled on a youth allstar type league in Flint
|
| 08:11:51 PM | revdjenk | ? I night it still is there?
|
| 08:11:56 PM | GoodGuy | I didnt know the crime rate lol
|
| 08:11:58 PM | revdjenk | Thought
|
| 08:12:01 PM | TNFrank | Yep, I could see the bridge going from Detroit to Windsor, it was pretty cool
|
| 08:12:08 PM | RobbieF | revdjenk the episode should be online within a VERY short amount of time based on the new transcoders if you need to catch the wrap up
|
| 08:12:17 PM | GoodGuy | Ambassador Bridge
|
| 08:12:55 PM | revdjenk | Robbief you said your wife is an author... What is her genre?
|
| 08:12:56 PM | TNFrank | Also lived in Phoenix, AZ for 16 years, my wife was born and raised there. She wants to go back but at 52 I don't know if I really want to live in a big city again.
|
| 08:13:14 PM | RobbieF | Well all, I'm going to go relax with Bekah in front of the TV -- she worked so hard tonight, I owe her that :)
|
| 08:13:14 PM | GoodGuy | I believe it is the only international bridge owned by one private person
|
| 08:13:24 PM | RobbieF | have a wonderful week. 7th anniversary next week.
|
| 08:13:26 PM | _Jot_ | it was a nice show RobbieF
|
| 08:13:27 PM | GoodGuy | Night RobbieF - great show
|
| 08:13:32 PM | RobbieF | Thanks guys
|
| 08:13:34 PM | TNFrank | C ya' later Robbie, great show

| 08:14:04 PM | Bekah | good night everyone :)
|
| 08:14:13 PM | _Jot_ | http://www.bekahferguson.com/
|
| 08:14:13 PM | TNFrank | C ya' Bekah
|
| 08:14:14 PM | revdjenk | Thanks Brian
|
| 08:14:20 PM | RobbieF | Keep an eye on the site and make note of what time it goes up :) I'm VERY excited about the new transcoder.
|
| 08:14:21 PM | Dennis_Kelley | Bekah - Pleasure having you on the show!
|
| 08:14:22 PM | revdjenk | Thanks bekah
|
| 08:14:28 PM | RobbieF | Thanks all.
|
| 08:14:30 PM | Bekah | thanks Dennis_Kelley
|
| 08:14:40 PM | RobbieF | Night all.
|
| 08:14:49 PM | revdjenk | My autocomplete is not!
|
| 08:15:00 PM | GoodGuy | Night all
|
| 08:15:09 PM | TNFrank | Anyone else running Point Linux??
|
| 08:15:19 PM | _Jot_ | I play games so I run windows :)
|
| 08:15:31 PM | _Jot_ | I have unraid on my storage server though
|
| 08:15:39 PM | revdjenk | I've been with mint for give years now... I am happy
|
| 08:15:45 PM | TNFrank | With Valve porting Steam over to Linux you'll be able to play a lot more games on Linux in the very near future.
|
| 08:15:47 PM | revdjenk | Five
|
| 08:16:00 PM | sprintcowboy | night all
|
| 08:16:02 PM | TNFrank | Mint 13??
|
| 08:16:13 PM | TNFrank | Since it has long term support.
|
| 08:16:19 PM | revdjenk | Mint 15
|
| 08:16:21 PM | TNFrank | C ya'
|
| 08:16:52 PM | TNFrank | I've run Mint 15 for a little over a month and it was nice, Point Linux is just a touch nicer IMHO
|
| 08:17:12 PM | TNFrank | Guess it's pretty much apples to apples though since they both run the MATE desktop in my case.
|
| 08:17:17 PM | revdjenk | 13 is still very good, but i noticed a big speed difference between 13 and 15
|
| 08:17:41 PM | TNFrank | Cinnamon was newer looking but other then that I didn't see much difference between it and MATE
|
| 08:18:14 PM | TNFrank | Mint 13 is tied to Ubuntu 12.04 so it'll have support until April 2017 from what I understand.
|
| 08:18:25 PM | revdjenk | The new libreoffice is the winner for me... I loi the new sidebar
|
| 08:18:32 PM | revdjenk | Like
|
| 08:18:55 PM | TNFrank | 4.0, yep, it's awesome. Why anyone would spend money on MicroSoft Office is beyond me.
|
| 08:19:10 PM | revdjenk | Correct
|
| 08:19:49 PM | TNFrank | I just really love it that I got my Compiz installed and have some cool effects now when I open and close windows and when I switch desktops.
|
| 08:20:26 PM | TNFrank | Linux just so totally Rocks. Guess I'm not an Apple Head anymore, LOL
|
| 08:20:39 PM | revdjenk | I have used libreoffice and its predecessors all the way back to 1999
|
| 08:20:47 PM | TNFrank | Besides, hardware for Apple/Mac is soooooo expensive.
|
| 08:21:17 PM | TNFrank | I have a buddy in Phoenix, AZ that's hardcore Windows 7. I've recently turned him onto Linux.
|
| 08:21:45 PM | revdjenk | I one the burn effect. Had a computer guy jump when he first saw it happen on my computer!
|
| 08:21:57 PM | TNFrank | He was telling me about the great deal he got on MicroSoft Office, only $198, I told him I got basically the same thing with LibreOffice for free, he didn't know what to say. LOL
|
| 08:22:36 PM | TNFrank | LOL, I installed it on my wife's computer while she was at work. "Beam Up" for opening a window and "Burn Down" for closing them.
|
| 08:22:48 PM | TNFrank | She noticed but didn't say anything.
|
| 08:23:39 PM | TNFrank | I'd been watching Robbie do that cool stuff for a couple months now and didn't know how he did it. Oh the power of Linux, ya' got to love it.
|
| 08:24:04 PM | revdjenk | I helped a woman install libreoffice on her win7 laptop. She had just purchased a new office pool ackage. She returned office the next day
|
| 08:24:42 PM | TNFrank | I sold a laptop to a guy last week, Dell 1521, nice laptop, Ubuntu 12.04, he's really liking it.
|
| 08:25:18 PM | TNFrank | He wants me to come over Sunday and help him install it on his desktop, the hard drive was wipped and has no os on it so I'm going to help him get it installed.
|
| 08:25:31 PM | TNFrank | I plan on showing him Point Linux too, might install that instead. LOL
|
| 08:25:55 PM | TNFrank | It's nice that you can make a Live USB with UNetbootin so folks can "try it before they buy it"
|
| 08:26:45 PM | TNFrank | I just need to set up his BIOS to make sure it'll boot to USB and Optical Drive before it boots to the hard drive.
|
| 08:27:03 PM | revdjenk | My lenovo t400 is beginning to lose its screen... If i replace it, I'm getting a chromebook
|
| 08:27:37 PM | TNFrank | You can hit EBay and get some pretty decent laptops for $50-$100 bucks, cheaper then fixing one.
|
| 08:28:03 PM | TNFrank | I'm using an HP nc6400 that I paid $50 for, it works like a charm.
|
| 08:28:34 PM | TNFrank | Installed a 120GB hard drive that I had into it, 2GB of RAM, Core Duo 1.83GHz, plenty of power for Linux.
|
| 08:28:57 PM | revdjenk | Three is a USB multi boot app, which will let you put more than one distro at a time on the same usb, w
|
| 08:29:18 PM | revdjenk | Works nicely to show a variety
|
| 08:29:33 PM | TNFrank | Darren over at Hak5 did an episode on making a USB Multi-Boot.
|
| 08:29:47 PM | revdjenk | Yay
|
| 08:30:01 PM | TNFrank | He had to do some changeing to Syslinux files to get it to work, kind of a pain.
|
| 08:30:18 PM | revdjenk | Him mmm
|
| 08:30:22 PM | TNFrank | It'd be nice if there was an app that'd do all that stuff for you so you just have to point it to the Distros you want
|
| 08:30:51 PM | _Jot_ | there is one at least for one distro
|
| 08:31:03 PM | _Jot_ | as in, one at a time
|
| 08:31:06 PM | TNFrank | LOL, UNetbootin,
|
| 08:31:14 PM | revdjenk | The one i was using was called multi boot ... Check it out
|
| 08:31:30 PM | TNFrank | I'd like to have Grub give me a choice to install 3 or 4 Dirtros on a single USB though.
|
| 08:31:53 PM | TNFrank | So I can Startpage "Multi Boot" and get more info then??
|
| 08:31:59 PM | revdjenk | And it is just point and install easy to put them on the stick
|
| 08:32:12 PM | TNFrank | Now that sounds sweet.
|
| 08:32:17 PM | TNFrank | I'll have to check it out.
|
| 08:32:31 PM | revdjenk | Should, bit it has been a few years
|
| 08:33:09 PM | revdjenk | But
|
| 08:33:23 PM | TNFrank | I know I'm being hard on my USB sticks, everytime I want to Test Drive a Distro I use Disks to format it then install a new Distro with UNetbootin, too many cycles and it'll die for sure.
|
| 08:33:58 PM | TNFrank | Looks like my Test Driving days are pretty much over now though since I'm using Point Linux, I'm going to stick with it for a good long while
|
| 08:34:00 PM | revdjenk | Heehee
|
| 08:35:19 PM | TNFrank | I just picked up an 8GB Patriot Rage XT, man that USB is fast for a 2.0. Read times were around 30MB/s, write was only 10MB/s but still, it's even faster then my SanDisk Crusier Glide.
|
| 08:35:36 PM | revdjenk | I originally thought i would be changing yearly, but mint caught me at the right time, with the right combination of codec support and spps
|
| 08:35:59 PM | TNFrank | I thought the SanDisk was fast but Patriot Rage XT is a bit faster.
|
| 08:36:32 PM | TNFrank | On Distro Watch Mint has been #1 download for quite a while now.
|
| 08:36:36 PM | revdjenk | Patriot has moved fast out of the gate ... Pun intended
|
| 08:36:47 PM | TNFrank | Guess there's a lot of former Ubuntu guys moving over to Mint.
|
| 08:37:00 PM | revdjenk | HP mp fill
|
| 08:37:06 PM | TNFrank | I'd like to get a couple more of their USB's
|
| 08:37:06 PM | revdjenk | Yes
|
| 08:37:56 PM | TNFrank | Really, for the average user who's just going to check e-mail or surf Facebook Unity isn't all that bad, it's stupid simple to use once you get what you want in the Launcher.
|
| 08:38:10 PM | TNFrank | My wife loves her Ubuntu 12.04
|
| 08:38:42 PM | TNFrank | I'm still trying to get her to use "sudo apt-get" , LOL. Not a Power User by any stretch,
|
| 08:39:15 PM | revdjenk | I only ran Ubuntu for a few weeks... Back in 2005 ... Then kubuntu, elive, pclinuxos, then mint
|
| 08:39:17 PM | TNFrank | Terminal is one of the things I really love about Linux, makes it really easy to install, uninstall, upgrade, update, ect.
|
| 08:39:55 PM | TNFrank | PCLinuxOS is suppose to be pretty decent, in fact, IIRC I did take it for a little Test Drive. Forget why I didn't stick with it.
|
| 08:41:29 PM | revdjenk | Pclinuxos is like Debian, solid, but behind in the fresh cutting edge programs. I need the best wine support for the couple ms programs i use
|
| 08:42:08 PM | TNFrank | I've not had any need to use WINE since I have nothing Windows to run.
|
| 08:42:36 PM | TNFrank | My brother has a Windows program that he uses for work but it doesn't run well under WINE or he'd probably be total Linux.
|
| 08:43:03 PM | revdjenk | I have one favorite Bible program which i really haven't found a decent replacement
|
| 08:43:44 PM | TNFrank | I downloaded a Bible program for my wife, started with an X, can't remember the name but I'd really like something simpler and with more translations if I can find one.
|
| 08:43:57 PM | TNFrank | Synaptic doesn't have much in the way of Bibles
|
| 08:44:22 PM | revdjenk | Well, now you can follow Robbie's virtualization and keep his windows secluded behind the virtual door
|
| 08:44:22 PM | TNFrank | Might e-mail Dr. Bill Baily, he'd probably know a good one to use.
|
| 08:45:25 PM | TNFrank | Any of you guys Rockin' the Roku??
|
| 08:46:26 PM | revdjenk | The word is dead simple to use with some, but i like e-sword, but needs great wine support and multiple steps to get it to work correctly
|
| 08:47:06 PM | revdjenk | Those are both windows bible programs
|
| 08:47:07 PM | TNFrank | IIRC I tried E-Sword but didn't get all of it downloaded from Synaptic.
|
| 08:47:31 PM | revdjenk | E-sword is not in synaptic
|
| 08:47:51 PM | revdjenk | E-sword.net
|
| 08:48:17 PM | TNFrank | Let me get into Synaptic and see if I can find the name of the one I did download
|
| 08:48:58 PM | TNFrank | Xiphos
|
| 08:49:15 PM | TNFrank | There is a "Sword" but probably not the same one as you have.
|
| 08:49:47 PM | revdjenk | There is a setup script in the Ubuntu forums which sometimes works easily to install it. The script writer's name is Dan 'something'
|
| 08:50:03 PM | TNFrank | Yep, they're pretty sparce on Bibles
|
| 08:50:15 PM | revdjenk | Correct... The sword in synaptic is not e-sword
|
| 08:50:23 PM | TNFrank | I'll need to do more research.
|
| 08:51:01 PM | TNFrank | I'd like something that simply opens a window and then you can type in Book then go to chaper or verse and have a few different Translations. Something simple.
|
| 08:51:43 PM | revdjenk | Like i said, the word is easy to install with no problems, and has many free transitions and also commercial ones available.
|
| 08:52:16 PM | TNFrank | So it's called "The Word"? I'll have to look it up, sounds like what I'm looking for.
|
| 08:52:31 PM | revdjenk | I think that should be theword to find it.
|
| 08:52:52 PM | TNFrank | ok, so in Terminal "sudo apt-get install theword"
|
| 08:54:07 PM | TNFrank | Oh well, I'm going to go grab a bit to eat and see what's on the TV. Talk to ya'll later. Good Night from Tennessee, USA.
|
| 08:54:19 PM | revdjenk | I just got used to e-sword. Theword is newer looking, modern . i think e-swords search is faster... Bit that is about is only claim.
|
| 08:54:56 PM | revdjenk | But that is about it's only claim
|
| 08:55:17 PM | revdjenk | Whoops talking to myself
|
| 08:55:37 PM | revdjenk | G'night _jot_
|
