msb | KDE used to be the default DE for Linux users. Linux users who think. But KDE4 has disappointed them, and they're trying others, none of which are much better. | Oct 17 13:38 |
MinceR | XFCE is much better | Oct 17 13:38 |
msb | KDE4 doesn't support the audio on my 4 year old mobo, so I've been told to get a new one. | Oct 17 13:39 |
MinceR | a new DE? | Oct 17 13:39 |
msb | But Linux needs to support old machines -- much older than mine -- because that's all that a lot of the people in the world have. | Oct 17 13:39 |
msb | DE = Desktop Environment (I think) | Oct 17 13:40 |
MinceR | yes | Oct 17 13:40 |
MinceR | and because we shouldn't have to throw out old computers | Oct 17 13:40 |
msb | MinceR: Does XFCE have 20 virtual desktops, each of which can be selected by one click on a small button with only the name of the desktop. | Oct 17 13:41 |
msb | These 20 buttons being grouped together in a 10 by 2 rectangle at the bottom of the screen. | Oct 17 13:41 |
MinceR | not sure about the name of the desktop thing | Oct 17 13:42 |
MinceR | i have 6*3 desktops | Oct 17 13:42 |
msb | Even old computers are like the VAX/780s of the past, which ran a whole university. | Oct 17 13:42 |
MinceR | and a pager widget with schematic view of windows | Oct 17 13:42 |
msb | Schematic view? | Oct 17 13:42 |
MinceR | contents aren't drawn, only borders | Oct 17 13:42 |
msb | Can the pager have the desktop name? | Oct 17 13:43 |
msb | e.g., Mail, Usenet, Linux, Radio, etc. | Oct 17 13:43 |
MinceR | yes | Oct 17 13:43 |
msb | borders of what, exactly? | Oct 17 13:43 |
MinceR | turning "Show miniature view" results in names being shown instead | Oct 17 13:44 |
MinceR | borders of windows | Oct 17 13:44 |

MinceR | if you turn "Show miniature view" off, you won't have them | Oct 17 13:44 |
msb | Sounds good. | Oct 17 13:44 |
msb | How many desktops can you have? | Oct 17 13:44 |

MinceR | so i have 18 workspaces now | Oct 17 13:45 |
msb | Can I have a panel at the bottom with the desktop-pager and a few app icons and those indicators that show when certain apps are running and a nice configurable clock? | Oct 17 13:46 |
MinceR | "app icons" as in launchers and "indicators" as in system tray? | Oct 17 13:47 |

msb | What does that do? | Oct 17 14:00 |
MinceR | i don't know exactly, but it does save stuff about running applications when you log out | Oct 17 14:01 |
msb | KDE4 konsole shows its current directory and the name of the job running, if any, making it very easy to find the desired konsole in the taskbar. | Oct 17 14:04 |
msb | I might have 6 konsoles in a desktop. | Oct 17 14:04 |
msb | Plus lots of other windows. | Oct 17 14:04 |
msb | It saves so much work to just leave konsoles and other programs set up and running in the various desktops where I used them last, so I don't have to set them up again when I do a similar task. It takes a little RAM, but generally no CPU cycles. | Oct 17 14:05 |

DaemonFC | I poked my head out to see if he was still out there and he ran up to me | Oct 17 16:10 |
MinceR | :3 | Oct 17 16:10 |
DaemonFC | he must have been hungry, he ate most of the food I gave him | Oct 17 16:10 |
DaemonFC | I'm going to take him to the cat shelter when they open up here in a bit | Oct 17 16:11 |
DaemonFC | he's a cute little thing, he'll be adopted | Oct 17 16:11 |
DaemonFC | he won't last long outside, it's starting to get cold out and he's still pretty small | Oct 17 16:11 |

MinceR | oh, i think i know what i said | Oct 17 16:16 |
MinceR | sebsebseb: one of those things is not like the others | Oct 17 16:16 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: oh? | Oct 17 16:16 |
MinceR | :> | Oct 17 16:16 |
DaemonFC | I have a soft spot for cats | Oct 17 16:16 |
sebsebseb | Windows? | Oct 17 16:16 |
DaemonFC | and most dogs | Oct 17 16:16 |
MinceR | no, "woof woof meow meow :D" | Oct 17 16:16 |
sebsebseb | yep dogs and cats | Oct 17 16:16 |
sebsebseb | :D | Oct 17 16:17 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: There are some dogs which are fairly intelligent and some that aren't | Oct 17 16:17 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: and some that are more behaved than others | Oct 17 16:17 |
DaemonFC | I used to have an Australian Shepherd | Oct 17 16:17 |
DaemonFC | she was a good dog | Oct 17 16:17 |
MinceR | DaemonFC: i have yet to find out about intelligent dogs | Oct 17 16:17 |
sebsebseb | anyway one of our current dogs, well yeah I like him really, but he is the one that tends to annoy me, the other one on the other hand doesn't tend to :) | Oct 17 16:17 |
sebsebseb | ,but one of them tends to start all the barking | Oct 17 16:17 |
sebsebseb | and such | Oct 17 16:17 |
DaemonFC | sebsebseb: I can't stand those little ones that act like someone gave them amphetamines all the time | Oct 17 16:18 |
DaemonFC | jump up and down on you | Oct 17 16:18 |
MinceR | then again, dead dogs do tend to be smarter than living ones | Oct 17 16:18 |
DaemonFC | tear furniture up | Oct 17 16:18 |
DaemonFC | poop in the house | Oct 17 16:18 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: oh the small, old women and such kind of dog? | Oct 17 16:18 |
MinceR | so there's one way to improve | Oct 17 16:18 |
sebsebseb | tiny little things | Oct 17 16:18 |
DaemonFC | then there are ones that are just bred to be vicious | Oct 17 16:19 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: some dogs are so tiny, that if not careful, might end up walking on them | Oct 17 16:19 |
DaemonFC | the police like them | Oct 17 16:19 |
DaemonFC | but there are many breeds that are intelligent and mild mannered | Oct 17 16:19 |
DaemonFC | those are the ones that are best kept as pets | Oct 17 16:19 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: When I say intelligent I mean for a dog. You know how humans have an intelligence range and some are profoundly retarded | Oct 17 16:20 |
DaemonFC | most are average | Oct 17 16:20 |
DaemonFC | and a few are above average | Oct 17 16:20 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: at times I might still miss our old dog, she died last year | Oct 17 16:20 |
DaemonFC | dogs and cats have their own range | Oct 17 16:20 |
MinceR | ah, so it's a difference i wouldn't notice :> | Oct 17 16:21 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: and these latest two we have, really can't replace her, and can never replace one dog with another propery enough anyway really, but it's differnet with two male dogs who are also brothers | Oct 17 16:21 |
DaemonFC | sebsebseb: my dog died last year | Oct 17 16:21 |
DaemonFC | she was 16 years old | Oct 17 16:21 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: well mine was 12 or something like that, got her as a puppy back in 1998, well I remember the day still even :D | Oct 17 16:22 |
DaemonFC | I buried her in at my grandmother's place out in the country, she has several acres of back yard | Oct 17 16:22 |
sebsebseb | oh | Oct 17 16:22 |
DaemonFC | so I picked a spot under a tree that I've always liked | Oct 17 16:22 |

sebsebseb | anyawy life is short really, and a lot of this Linux and such stuff, is one way, to waste time really, to waste our lives away hmm :( | Oct 17 16:23 |
sebsebseb | I mean reading loads of rubbish on the web about it and such | Oct 17 16:23 |
MinceR | acquiring knowledge is a waste of time? | Oct 17 16:24 |
sebsebseb | to odo with Linux distros and so on | Oct 17 16:24 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: uh no, but | Oct 17 16:24 |
DaemonFC | my dog was living at my mom's house, landlords tend not to take dogs and for a long time I was working 10-12-14 hours a day | Oct 17 16:24 |
DaemonFC | you can't be fair to a dog under those conditions anyway | Oct 17 16:24 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: most of the opensource stuff to do with Linux and such on the web now, is just people expressing their opinions | Oct 17 16:24 |
DaemonFC | I got Jabba because cats are more independent than dogs are | Oct 17 16:24 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: the web is full of opinion now, loads of blogs and comments and uh | Oct 17 16:25 |

sebsebseb | 2007/2008 and such | Oct 17 16:25 |
DaemonFC | Unity sucks, but please use it if you like it | Oct 17 16:25 |
MinceR | well, there's more crap on the web now, one needs to filter better | Oct 17 16:25 |
DaemonFC | :) | Oct 17 16:25 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: how to filter it out? | Oct 17 16:26 |
sebsebseb | it's everywehre in this Linux stuff | Oct 17 16:26 |
MinceR | choose what sites you follow, what feeds you add to your feed reader | Oct 17 16:26 |
sebsebseb | I get onto an article about whatever | Oct 17 16:26 |
sebsebseb | and there we go | Oct 17 16:26 |
sebsebseb | it's there in the comments, if not in the article/blog post it self as well | Oct 17 16:26 |
MinceR | mind how you search and which results you read | Oct 17 16:26 |
MinceR | if you don't want to read opinion pieces, you don't have to | Oct 17 16:27 |

sebsebseb | yep I do ignore most of it now :D | Oct 17 16:33 |
sebsebseb | been quite a while | Oct 17 16:33 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: I should probably start ignoring most KDE stuff now really as well | Oct 17 16:33 |
sebsebseb | KDE doesn't interest me that much at all really | Oct 17 16:34 |
sebsebseb | may use it at times, but I don't want to know loads and loads about it | Oct 17 16:34 |
MinceR | i don't even see KDE stuff nowadays | Oct 17 16:34 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: I do, but that's probably mainly since I am in the KDE group on Identica | Oct 17 16:34 |
MinceR | ic | Oct 17 16:34 |

sebsebseb | apparnatly | Oct 17 16:38 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: I think it's best to wait untill Ubuntu 12.04 really though | Oct 17 16:38 |
sebsebseb | then the other distros if they can, should seriously start putting in their repos | Oct 17 16:38 |
sebsebseb | loads of them, that's what I think | Oct 17 16:38 |
MinceR | i do fine with Fedora, XFCE and Openbox for now | Oct 17 16:39 |
MinceR | (and xcompmgr) | Oct 17 16:39 |
sebsebseb | wait untill Long Term Support Unity, well something Ubuntu would want to support for three years | Oct 17 16:39 |

DaemonFC | nobody wants Bing or the Yahoo theme for Bing | Oct 17 18:53 |

_Goblin | I wouldn't mind if Bing offered an advantage to me....but it doesn't....it just lines the pockets of ballmer. | Oct 17 18:53 |
DaemonFC | but most because of the bad search quality | Oct 17 18:53 |
DaemonFC | the main users of Bing are ones where it came with IE or something from Microsoft hijacked their Firefox search | Oct 17 18:53 |

schestowitz | Frankyl, they are treated as boring ans almost stale | Oct 17 19:37 |
schestowitz | Because much of the innovation happened in devices now | Oct 17 19:37 |
schestowitz | so lots of articles appear about iOS, Apple, app stores, etc. | Oct 17 19:37 |

-TRIdentica/#techrights-[jezra/@jezra] in 2012, I will be in the Blackpool of America for the National Beard and Mustache Competition | Oct 17 19:38 | |
schestowitz | This means that OSes like Ubuntu and projects like LibrOffice are aiming at an area which has become less lucrative | Oct 17 19:38 |
DaemonFC | I tend to use Opera as my browser, and at one point I noticed that Linux Mint was modifying Opera's search preferences | Oct 17 19:38 |
DaemonFC | to lead to their Google CSE page, which is crap | Oct 17 19:38 |
schestowitz | Opera too? | Oct 17 19:39 |
DaemonFC | I reported the issue to Opera and they fixed it later | Oct 17 19:39 |
DaemonFC | yeah, now it won't allow search changes unless it was done by the user | Oct 17 19:39 |
DaemonFC | Windows and Mac builds too | Oct 17 19:39 |
DaemonFC | so Linux Mint searchjacking Opera no longer works | Oct 17 19:40 |
DaemonFC | as long as you have a recent Opera | Oct 17 19:40 |
DaemonFC | I find it annoying that they modify programs that aren't even theirs / from them / whatever | Oct 17 19:41 |
schestowitz | how about xchat? | Oct 17 19:41 |
schestowitz | does ubuntu still pull a mandriva? | Oct 17 19:41 |
DaemonFC | what about it? | Oct 17 19:41 |
schestowitz | adding autojoin items | Oct 17 19:41 |
DaemonFC | not autojoin, but it lists two duplicates of Freenode, one called Debian IRC and one called Ubuntu IRC | Oct 17 19:42 |
DaemonFC | and lately they haven't bothered making Ubuntu IRC the default, so it tends to autojoin #debian if you just click on things | Oct 17 19:42 |
DaemonFC | :) | Oct 17 19:42 |
schestowitz | In Russia, Mandriva autojoins YOU | Oct 17 19:43 |
DaemonFC | it reset to this behavior every release cycle and normally they fixed it | Oct 17 19:43 |
DaemonFC | but they aren't even bothering anymore | Oct 17 19:43 |
DaemonFC | they recommend Xchat-stupid | Oct 17 19:43 |
DaemonFC | Xchat-GNOME that is | Oct 17 19:43 |
DaemonFC | :) | Oct 17 19:43 |
schestowitz | xchat-gnome | Oct 17 19:43 |
schestowitz | yeah | Oct 17 19:43 |
schestowitz | you beat me to it | Oct 17 19:43 |
schestowitz | I hate that one | Oct 17 19:43 |
cubezzz | what's wrong with xchat? | Oct 17 19:43 |
schestowitz | TOO MANY BUTTONS | Oct 17 19:44 |
DaemonFC | not Xchat, the Xchat GNOME fork | Oct 17 19:44 |
schestowitz | use konversation | Oct 17 19:44 |
DaemonFC | that one is horrible | Oct 17 19:44 |
cubezzz | oh I see | Oct 17 19:44 |
schestowitz | best I ever usd | Oct 17 19:44 |
schestowitz | And I did shop around a bit | Oct 17 19:44 |
DaemonFC | Xchat-GNOME is not usable | Oct 17 19:44 |
cubezzz | is this some gnome3 thing? | Oct 17 19:44 |
DaemonFC | they do things like mandatory hidden userlist | Oct 17 19:44 |
DaemonFC | it's now a popup menu | Oct 17 19:44 |
DaemonFC | that is the most fucking annoying thing I've ever seen | Oct 17 19:44 |
DaemonFC | I used it once, for about 5 minutes | Oct 17 19:45 |
DaemonFC | before I couldn't stand it anymore | Oct 17 19:45 |
cubezzz | hmm, I'm not sure I even have konservation on the kde 3.5.10 box | Oct 17 19:45 |

DaemonFC | apparently that has been fixed for over a year, but since there haven't been any actual releases in over a year, the fix is not in any version of it that users will use | Oct 17 19:49 |

cubezzz | instead of complaining about what you don't like, why not talk about stuff you do like? | Oct 17 19:50 |

DaemonFC | "The usual villains, Apple Inc, Cisco Systems Inc, Oracle Corp and Microsoft Corp, are pushing for the tax breaks to bring home money stored in havens like Ireland. The last time they got their way, they put the money into bonuses and dividends rather than the promised investment and jobs." | Oct 17 20:55 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: Any reason you forgot to mention Google, which is incorporated in Ireland and pays almost no US taxes | Oct 17 20:55 |
DaemonFC | :) | Oct 17 20:55 |
DaemonFC | I think I recall their US tax being like 1.2% of their net profits thanks to using tax loopholes designed for the rich | Oct 17 20:56 |

DaemonFC | and its great to have open source code made available, but it doesn't say anything about the company that did it, all by itself | Oct 17 21:00 |
DaemonFC | companies like open source in some contexts because it's an efficient development process | Oct 17 21:03 |
DaemonFC | and it can offload some of the work to outside contributors | Oct 17 21:03 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: With that said, are you feeling warm and fuzzy enough about some of the open source projects at Google to exclude them from your list of tax cheats? | Oct 17 21:04 |
DaemonFC | or was it just an honest omission? :) | Oct 17 21:04 |
DaemonFC | Google only pays 1.2% of its income in taxes while Wall Street Journal assholes call people making minimum wage and paying more like 20% or more of their income (lucky duckies) | Oct 17 21:07 |
DaemonFC | of course, "Wall Street" Journal, like Wall Street, loves any company that turns a profit even if they did so unethically or illegally | Oct 17 21:08 |

tessier | sebsebseb: I'm all for secure boot as long as I can sign my own stuff... | Oct 17 22:25 |
tessier | sebsebseb: Having crypto and code signing built into hardware is actually great for security. | Oct 17 22:25 |
tessier | The real problem is they only want to allow Microsoft to be able to sign. | Oct 17 22:25 |
sebsebseb | tessier: you don't tend to chat here, so hi, and I agree, it's a good thing really for security, but here's the thing the Linux distros and such issue | Oct 17 22:25 |
sebsebseb | it's not meant to block other OS's | Oct 17 22:26 |
sebsebseb | from being able to run on the computer really | Oct 17 22:26 |
tessier | sebsebseb: Yeah, I idle a lot. But I'm often around, just budy in other windows. | Oct 17 22:26 |
tessier | busy | Oct 17 22:26 |
sebsebseb | oh channels such as? | Oct 17 22:26 |
sebsebseb | ah, but Microsoft were looking into dual boot or whatever | Oct 17 22:26 |
sebsebseb | maybe Microsoft wil end up signing Linux distros heh heh | Oct 17 22:26 |
sebsebseb | so yeah buy a Windows 8 PC with this, then say to Micrsooft I want to instal... as well, and then get the code or whatever for that, and done | Oct 17 22:27 |
sebsebseb | if you get what I mean | Oct 17 22:27 |
MinceR | locking into vista8 is not good for security, though | Oct 17 22:27 |
sebsebseb | I know sounds like a joke, but I am being serious here | Oct 17 22:27 |
tessier | I'm on #kernel-panic a lot. But I'm also busy in other terminal windows. Right now I'm setting up a new spam filter server on CentOS 6 for a client. Hope to finish that today. Then move onto redundant load balancers and then redundant firewalls. | Oct 17 22:27 |
tessier | Would love to have all of that done by the end of the week. | Oct 17 22:27 |
MinceR | they "don't engineer for security", they've said so themselves | Oct 17 22:27 |
tessier | Not sure it's going to happen though. | Oct 17 22:27 |
sebsebseb | surely they will be braking laws though | Oct 17 22:27 |
sebsebseb | at least in Erope anyway | Oct 17 22:27 |
sebsebseb | if it's made so only Windows can boot with this stuff enabled | Oct 17 22:27 |
sebsebseb | you know European Commision, and consumer choice stuff and all that | Oct 17 22:28 |
sebsebseb | plus the Linux Australlia I read would compagain against this stuff | Oct 17 22:28 |
sebsebseb | oh and FSF has already, there's a compagain, but seems to be being over loaded | Oct 17 22:28 |
sebsebseb | also Mac's can run Linux still right, and they have this thing? | Oct 17 22:28 |
sebsebseb | so uhmm | Oct 17 22:28 |
sebsebseb | worst case sincario Macs get even popular, with those that want both Windows 8 and Linux distro/s ? | Oct 17 22:29 |
sebsebseb | or BSD or whatever it may be instad or as well as Linux you know | Oct 17 22:29 |
sebsebseb | or just | Oct 17 22:29 |
sebsebseb | buy pre installed Linux distro computers or ones with no OS and :) | Oct 17 22:29 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: tessier I think this stuff will work out in time, but the Inenret will love going on about it in the mean time | Oct 17 22:30 |
tessier | sebsebseb: I agree. So far Linux has survived many such challenges. | Oct 17 22:30 |
tessier | I remember the big scare over...I2C and Linux. | Oct 17 22:31 |
sebsebseb | what's that? | Oct 17 22:31 |
tessier | Back when I2C was invented it was proprietary and secret. | Oct 17 22:31 |
tessier | Various bits of hardware, even keyboards and mouse, were supposedly going to I2C interfaces. | Oct 17 22:31 |
tessier | And Linux was going to be locked out. | Oct 17 22:31 |
sebsebseb | oh | Oct 17 22:31 |
sebsebseb | well not even heard of l2C before | Oct 17 22:31 |
MinceR | not I2O? | Oct 17 22:31 |
sebsebseb | tessier: MinceR I think a lot of this stuff about secure boot and Linux, is to scare people and get page views and comments and such you know | Oct 17 22:32 |
tessier | I'm pretty sure it was I2C. | Oct 17 22:32 |
sebsebseb | tessier: MinceR a bit like Wayland is hyped up way early, to get people all excited about Ubuntu having Wayland in the future after 12.04 | Oct 17 22:33 |
sebsebseb | and apparnatly it was started by some guy from Redhat as well or something | Oct 17 22:33 |
sebsebseb | so it's not like Ubuntu even made it, but loads of people are being like WOW Ubuntu is going to get Wayland | Oct 17 22:34 |
tessier | I think the I2C spec was leaked by someone accidentally leaving it on an FTP server or something. Then it was all over. Probably would have been reverse anyway though. | Oct 17 22:34 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[silner/@silner] I was just trying Ubuntu 11.10 on the live CD. If I had a spare bit of metal I'd install it, but I have to decide wheth... http://b1t.it/IxW | Oct 17 22:34 | |
TechrightsBot-tr | @: | Oct 17 22:34 |
MinceR | I2C is a hardware bus; I2O is an I/O specification that could have resulted in cross-platform device drivers | Oct 17 22:34 |
MinceR | ic | Oct 17 22:34 |
tessier | Lots of stuff in modern machines uses I2C. IPMI, temp sensors, fan speeds, etc. | Oct 17 22:34 |
MinceR | my exposure to I2C was that some (or all?) tv tuner cards use it | Oct 17 22:34 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: I like how, you just post on Identica still a lot, but hten use disapora like a sperate site? | Oct 17 22:35 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: however I also like, well like silner just did there ^ | Oct 17 22:35 |

sebsebseb | tessier: MinceR The secure boot and Linux thing, isn't that mainly just FUD really? | Oct 17 22:38 |
MinceR | i don't know | Oct 17 22:39 |
sebsebseb | well | Oct 17 22:39 |
sebsebseb | Fear Uncertaintiy and Doubt | Oct 17 22:39 |
sebsebseb | and people aer all worreid and unsure about waht is going to happen | Oct 17 22:39 |
sebsebseb | and quite a lot | Oct 17 22:39 |
sebsebseb | so FUD? | Oct 17 22:39 |
MinceR | Palladium was intended to be some serious crap and it was crippled by the time it made into PCs | Oct 17 22:39 |
MinceR | but one can never know | Oct 17 22:40 |
sebsebseb | What's Palladium? | Oct 17 22:40 |
MinceR | sebsebseb: FUD is a marketing/politics strategy | Oct 17 22:40 |
tessier | Not sure if it is FUD or not. The Linux guys are talking it up too. | Oct 17 22:40 |
MinceR | sebsebseb: Palladium is what was rebranded as TCPA and then TC | Oct 17 22:40 |
MinceR | and perhaps some other names too | Oct 17 22:40 |
sebsebseb | tessier: yeah I guess it's not FUD as in all made up | Oct 17 22:40 |
sebsebseb | ,but | Oct 17 22:40 |
sebsebseb | well yes it's not made up, but | Oct 17 22:40 |
tessier | If it is MS FUD it is successful FUD because we are in here FUDing ourselves by worrying about it. :) | Oct 17 22:40 |
sebsebseb | there's a lot of opinion out there about it | Oct 17 22:40 |
sebsebseb | and people are scared about it and uncertain | Oct 17 22:40 |
MinceR | m$ FUDding PC makers? i don't see how that would work | Oct 17 22:41 |
MinceR | or their own sticker? | Oct 17 22:41 |
sebsebseb | so even if it's not what FUD Fear Uncertainity and Dbout useaulyl means when on about tech, could use those words to describe this as well, if you get what I mean? | Oct 17 22:41 |
MinceR | could, but it would be unnecessary and confusing | Oct 17 22:41 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: oh the trolls might do a blog post about this chat | Oct 17 22:42 |
MinceR | so what? | Oct 17 22:42 |
