[00:00:26] <ari-free_> well there is a saying. In China, Bill Gates is treated like Britney Spears. In the US, britney Spears is well...Britney Spears
[00:01:13] <NathanP> So, in China, Bill Gates would be castrated and raped by photographers who can't get his name right?
[00:01:31] * JonathanThompson blinks
[00:01:45] <NathanP> It could happen.
[00:02:51] <ari-free_> and in singapore, kids who are tops in math exams are displayed on billboards to sell stuff
[00:03:25] <NathanP> They do the same here, only with low IQ tests and crappy singing abilities.
[00:03:45] *** luroh has quit IRC
[00:04:00] <ari-free_> and lots of cleavage
[00:04:02] <cb88> my stats teacher is from Singapore...
[00:04:19] <NathanP> ari-free_, same here.
[00:04:47] <cb88> and he speaks suprisingly good english... he had to ask how to say placebo today though
[00:05:00] <NathanP> cb88, that's exciting. Ask him if he's been on a billboard. We wish to know.
[00:06:21] <NathanP> I've manage to degrade this entire channel in a matter of minutes. Let's discuss what would happen if the Haiku tracker saw a mailman.
[00:06:23] <cb88> yes... that is what I was wondering
[00:07:02] <cb88> so as a general rule... people on billboards can't speak good english?
[00:07:21] <cb88> X.x ... cya
[00:07:26] *** cb88 has quit IRC
[00:07:36] <NathanP> Actually, he's correct.

[01:08:19] <NathanP> It's an emergency!
[01:08:30] <JonathanThompson> Nope, this is an automated bot reply!
[01:08:40] <NathanP> It's FinallyFast.com.
[01:08:45] <NathanP> They now support Macs.
[01:08:49] <NathanP> God help us all.
[01:09:01] * NathanP looks at a Registery scanner for the Mac from FinallyFast.
[01:09:14] * JonathanThompson screams in agony at the thought
[01:09:46] <NathanP> I love how it says it was featured in Forbes and Newsweek, yet there are no articles from Forbes or Newsweek about them.

[01:22:03] <NathanP> Because now, it's technically an actually support request and not a joke call.
[01:22:29] *** amuck_ has quit IRC
[01:24:16] <JonathanThompson> There's a simple solution: have your Mac running Linux or some other non-Windows/OSX OS, and drive them batty :P
[01:24:17] *** judgen_ has quit IRC
[01:25:08] <mmu_man> or just install Haiku
[01:25:26] <JonathanThompson> Which is.... a Non-Windows/OSX OS ;)
[01:26:01] <NathanP> mmu_man, I already did it with BeOS.
[01:26:06] <mmu_man> meaning you don't need a 3rd party thingy to make it faster :p^
[01:26:13] <mmu_man> anyway, zz
[01:26:14] *** mmu_man has quit IRC
[01:26:32] <NathanP> What about FreeBSD? Feeling exotic.
[01:27:02] <JonathanThompson> Go for Solaris, see if they even recognize the name :P
[01:27:17] <JonathanThompson> Ask them what storage pools are, and how to make them faster!
[01:27:37] <JonathanThompson> Too bad you don't have access to a VMS machine!
[01:27:39] <NathanP> Muahahaa! Ask how to defragment ZFS, yes?
[01:27:48] <JonathanThompson> There you go, perfect :D
[01:28:01] *** CaptainPike_hero has joined #haiku
[01:28:01] *** {V} has joined #haiku
[01:28:05] <JonathanThompson> Or ask them to check the file system ;)
[01:28:12] <NathanP> I wouldn't ever imagine a case where ZFS needed defragmenting.
[01:28:19] <NathanP> EXT2, yes. But never since 3.
[01:29:05] <NathanP> I'd like my Linux FS to be FAT16.
[01:29:20] <JonathanThompson> There's a middle school in the US that's decided to allow students to buy up to 20 total test points, 10 each on tests of their choice.
[01:29:25] <JonathanThompson> All to raise money.
[01:29:39] <helf|laptop> lol
[01:29:42] <NathanP> I'd auction off test points if I were them.
[01:29:56] <NathanP> That way, they make more money while still killing the educational system.
[01:30:04] <JonathanThompson> My reply to the story in the group: cap and trades for grades, anyone???
[01:30:26] <helf|laptop> that is so dumb
[01:30:41] <helf|laptop> our edumacashunial system is effed enough as it is
[01:31:15] <NathanP> I know a school that lets kids invest in the stock market, giving them more investment money with good grades and performance/
[01:31:25] <NathanP> That is a smart and also very interesting way to do things.
[01:31:35] <NathanP> Now, the sale of grades? Not so much.
[01:32:03] * NathanP wonders what would happen if all those kids chose to invest in Enron...
[01:32:19] <JonathanThompson> A gas bubble :P

[03:33:52] <haiku> Is says "functional, simple, and elegant"!
[03:34:20] <haiku> as all OS's should
[03:34:44] <NathanP> I'd request all error messages in Haiku be in haiku's, but that'd make debugging as hard(er) as hell.
[03:35:11] <haiku> or display a Haiku when the terminal is opened!
[03:35:42] <NathanP> That would be a nice feature. Perhaps file it for an enhancement in Haiku R2? :p
[03:35:56] <haiku> sure, I would like that
[03:37:40] <haiku> One bug fix/feature I would like done is for the browser to resize to the current screen resolution
[03:38:03] <haiku> There is much browser I can not see
[03:38:11] <haiku> below screen
[03:38:23] <haiku> I must manually resize every time
[03:39:00] <NathanP> Perhaps You should resize the screen via the Screen application under Preferences?
[03:39:03] <haiku> all open windows does that
[03:39:09] <cb88> you can already do that with fortune ...
[03:39:24] <cb88> add fourtune to your .bashrc
[03:39:24] <haiku> I am at max resolution

[03:41:00] <haiku> so I am in full screen
[03:41:08] <NathanP> Does it fit in fullscreen?
[03:41:15] <haiku> I do not want to look at a 5 by 5 desktop
[03:41:22] <haiku> almost
[03:41:40] <NathanP> So, the windows are appearing below the viewing threshold of the screen because of the resolution?
[03:41:56] <haiku> If I lower the res, half of the screen is unused
[03:42:12] <haiku> the lower third anyway
[03:42:24] *** mmadia has quit IRC
[03:42:49] <NathanP> Well, it's the price to pay, I guess.
[03:42:49] <haiku> I guess I will have to go to lower res
[03:43:07] <NathanP> Speaking of which, I need to test a feature in an R1A1 VM.
[03:43:41] *** mmadia has joined #haiku
[03:45:45] <haiku> the problem is I have a 16:10 monitor and the VirtualBox display adapter is 4:3
[03:48:04] <haiku> perhaps someone could create a VirtualBox kernel module for Haiku.
[03:48:11] *** cb88 has left #haiku
[03:48:23] <NathanP> Haiku's VM are made with VMWare in mind, mostly, I think.
[03:48:26] <haiku> I wish I was a programmer!
[03:48:38] <gtaw> I wish I was a Nintendo.
[03:48:41] <gtaw> Then I'd be popular....

[03:49:20] <NathanP> gtaw, Lmao.
[03:49:29] <NathanP> I haven't heard anyone say that in years.
[03:49:35] <gtaw> PS3 is suffering from Neo-Geo syndrome.
[03:49:38] * NathanP has a VirtualBoy and loves it, he adds
[03:49:50] <haiku> hope you are not Xbox 360, or you would have trouble
[03:49:56] <haiku> red ring of death
[03:50:25] <DDevine> lol
[03:50:32] <haiku> that is stupid
[03:50:56] <haiku> why not blue to match windows blue screen of death
[03:51:38] <NathanP> Because vending machines are already doing it, and Microsoft wants to be origional.
[03:52:16] <haiku> Microsoft, original, don;t make me laugh and split my stiches! ha ha ha ha hahaha
[03:52:36] <gtaw> haiku: Probably for that exact reason
[03:52:44] <NathanP> Apple stole from Microsoft, too, you know.
[03:53:02] <haiku> and apple from Xerox
[03:53:06] <NathanP> Everyone steals from everyone.
[03:53:15] <haiku> And MS from IBM, twice

[03:56:58] <NathanP> Nothing was stolen there.
[03:57:01] <haiku> I thought IBM made Dos and was licenced to IBM
[03:57:03] <gtaw> No MS bought DOS and licensed it to IBM
[03:57:30] <gtaw> In the neighborhood of $50,000
[03:57:31] <haiku> oh, ok

[03:57:41] <haiku> who developed Dos then
[03:57:47] <NathanP> Blargh, BOUGHT FOR.*
[03:57:50] <NathanP> Not license.
[03:57:53] <gtaw> Some seattle based company
[03:57:55] <NathanP> My bad.
[03:58:18] <gtaw> SCP
[03:58:21] <NathanP> I think it was actually around 48,000, gtaw.
[03:58:23] <haiku> I know there was a IBM Dos and a MS Dos
[03:58:48] <haiku> and after DOS 3 i think, they were no longer compatible
[03:58:59] <haiku> MS Dos that is
[03:59:14] <gtaw> Wasn't IBM's version PC-DOS?
[03:59:19] <gtaw> Or was that a different one.
[03:59:23] <haiku> Yes
[03:59:30] <haiku> That is it
[03:59:35] <haiku> Been too long
[03:59:40] <NathanP> And then we have Window, which supposedly stole from Apple with the GUI, who Apple stole from Xerox PARC, who's company directors didn't know anything with what they had was a goldmine.
[03:59:51] <NathanP> Windows.&
[03:59:55] <NathanP> Windows.**
[03:59:58] <NathanP> Gah, late.
[04:00:01] <gtaw> Are you masturbating?
[04:00:06] <haiku> At least we have FreeDOS we can play with!
[04:00:22] <haiku> run Doom on
[04:00:24] <NathanP> No, gtaw, but I am using a Microsoft ergonomic keyboard for the first time today.
[04:00:30] <haiku> I love that game
[04:00:46] <gtaw> Ahh
[04:01:01] <NathanP> Never used one before, until now.
[04:01:05] <haiku> that explains everything
[04:01:06] <gtaw> I loved Doom more after I got Dmapedit
[04:01:08] <NathanP> And I can easily say I hate it.

[04:02:30] <haiku> thanks NathanP
[04:02:53] <gtaw> Bye haiku
[04:02:56] <haiku> and keep gtaw under control!
[04:02:59] <haiku> lol
[04:03:07] <NathanP> *Which brings me back to the subject of Xerox. Can you imagine how it'd be if they realized how the revolutionary the GUI would become?
[04:03:18] <haiku> bye
[04:03:21] <NathanP> Imagine the licensing revenue alone, besides their damn ink replacements.
[04:03:25] *** haiku has quit IRC
[04:04:26] <NathanP> I should have invented the GUI.
[04:04:37] <NathanP> Then I would have sold it to a newspaper company.
[04:05:47] <gtaw> Hehe
[04:06:11] <gtaw> I don't think they intended for Apple to see it.
[04:06:52] <NathanP> I'm sure the folks from Parc didn't want them to.
[04:07:19] <gtaw> Apple doesn't understand the term "good faith" :p
[04:08:53] <DDevine> No, they do but they just interpret it the oppisite way to everybody else.
[04:09:20] <NathanP> Apple lost it's way when Steve Jobs came back.
[04:09:46] <NathanP> Now it's all gray and white, control freaks with lawyers.
[04:10:30] <DDevine> I think the changes of me ever buying an Apple product are extremly slim.
[04:10:46] <DDevine> Partially because they are too damn expensive.
[04:10:53] <gtaw> How about an Apple I
[04:10:57] <gtaw> You can get them in kit form
[04:11:08] <NathanP> Indeed. It's the same hardware specs on other machines that cost hundreds less.
[04:11:09] <DDevine> Actually yeah I would buy that.
[04:11:37] <DDevine> Its not really the cost, its more that I don't like Apple's attititude and the way they do most things.
[04:11:45] <NathanP> I'd buy an Apple I just to say to my friends and family "Hey, I have an Apple I" Then they would say "That's great, now when are you gonna' move out?"
[04:11:55] <gtaw> Hahaha
[04:12:08] <DDevine> I moved out before my senior year in Highschool.
[04:12:23] <NathanP> The same scenario with an Altair...
[04:12:28] <gtaw> Into the arms of a sailor named Thad?
[04:12:30] <gtaw> :D
[04:12:48] <NathanP> Though, I Would like an Altair more than an Apple I.
[04:12:53] <NathanP> Now THAT would be a treat.
[04:13:01] <gtaw> Yeah
[04:13:27] <NathanP> Put it in a bullet proof case, let sleep with it in my bed at night...

[04:15:17] <Cammy> Hello
[04:15:20] <NathanP> Hello.
[04:16:06] <Cammy> I'm partitioning my hard drive with GParted in Linux at the moment, and was wondering what filesystem I should use to format a partition to install Haiku on
[04:16:28] <NathanP> Just create a partition of reasonable size and choost unformatted.
[04:16:40] *** mvfranz has joined #haiku
[04:16:50] <Cammy> So Haiku has its own filesystem?
[04:17:00] <NathanP> Haiku's installer includes a partitioner application (Don't use it to resize or anything) that you can make a BeFS file system on the partition.
[04:17:13] <NathanP> Yes, Haiku uses the BeFS,
[04:17:24] *** ari-free has joined #haiku
[04:17:40] <Cammy> Cool, thanks
[04:18:05] <Cammy> One 10gb unformatted partition for Haiku then, should be big enough do you think?
[04:18:16] <NathanP> Yes, perfect.
[04:18:25] <Cammy> Sweet
[04:22:21] <NathanP> Driver bug, maybe.
[04:22:34] <NathanP> Meh, it IS an Intel graphics card. :p

[04:35:33] <DraX> hax!
[04:35:42] <NathanP> Where!?
[04:35:47] * NathanP jumps and looks about.
[04:36:00] <DraX> NathanP: hopefully in your editor ;)
[04:36:18] <NathanP> No, it's TinyMCE.
[04:36:26] <DraX> aww :(
[04:36:38] <Cammy> Sorry for the newb question, but once I've installed Haiku, can I add it to my Grub menu?
[04:36:52] <NathanP> Yes, you can.
[04:36:56] <DraX> Cammy: there is an article on haikuzone.net about doing that
[04:37:03] <Cammy> Awesome, thanks
[04:37:05] <DraX> top article i believe
[04:37:27] <Cammy> Found it, thanks
[04:37:34] <NathanP> Haiku also has it's own bootloader, but it's installer is hidden since it's also alpha-quality.
[04:37:39] <NathanP> (Though it works fine for me.)
[04:39:25] *** mvfranz has joined #haiku
[04:40:13] <DraX> mvfranz: did you ever get gcj working?
[04:40:39] <mvfranz> DraX parts of it works - actually trying another build
[04:40:54] <DraX> which part? :)
[04:40:59] <mvfranz> gcj runs and compiles - every once in a while it crashes with a memory issue
[04:41:10] <mvfranz> gjavah and gjar do not work at all
[04:41:36] <DraX> gcj capable of generating .class files?
[04:41:44] <mvfranz> since I got the pthread patches in I was going to do a clean build
[04:41:49] <DraX> and i presume then that classpath compiles
[04:42:17] <mvfranz> yes, it works fine - except for the occasional crash
[04:42:28] <mvfranz> It can also compile .class to native
[04:43:01] <DraX> i wonder how andrew is going on openjdk
[04:43:06] <DraX> haven't seen any commits in a while
[04:43:30] <mvfranz> I have not talked to him lately - I have been busy
[04:43:45] <mvfranz> would like to give it another try once I get my latest gcj build working
[04:43:54] <DraX> yeah
[04:43:58] <mvfranz> part of the build process uses hard links and bfs does not support that
[04:44:13] <mvfranz> I was using soft links instead but that caused issued
[04:44:13] <DraX> yes emacs build uses hardlinks too
[04:44:18] <DraX> usualyl you can slip cp in
[04:44:22] <mvfranz> changed it to use copy instead
[04:44:26] <DraX> cp seems closer to a hard link
[04:44:27] <mvfranz> seems to work better
[04:45:11] <mvfranz> Is there an easier way? I moved ln to real_ln and then created a script for ln that did a copy
[04:45:16] <jmayfield_> i tkink i figured out the source of universal entropic tendencies... children
[04:45:30] <DraX> mvfranz: nope,i ended up modifying emacs Makefile.in
[04:45:53] <DraX> i could go for some hardlinks
[04:46:05] <mvfranz> I figure changing the build files is a better solution, but I did not want to figure out where to change it
[04:46:36] <mvfranz> there will not be hard links until after the first release
[04:46:42] <gtaw> http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n180/nosebrain/freshprince.jpg
[04:46:50] <mvfranz> or, someone gets a writable file system that does
[04:46:59] <mvfranz> meaning ext3/4
[04:47:17] <DraX> ew
[04:47:30] <DraX> i'd really like this stupid r5 compatability goal to go away
[04:47:34] <DraX> but i think i'm an outlier there
[04:47:52] <NathanP> And shootin' some B-ball outside of the school.
[04:48:02] <NathanP> Whena' couple of guys, they were up to no good,
[04:48:09] <NathanP> started making trouble in my neighborhood.
[04:48:28] <NathanP> Got in one little fight and my mom got scared,
[04:48:42] <NathanP> saying "You're moving with you're auntie and uncle in BelAir."
[04:49:05] <NathanP> I whistled for a cab, and when it came near,
[04:49:21] <NathanP> the license plate said fresh and had a dice in the mirror,
[04:49:30] <NathanP> If anything, I could say that this cab was rare,
[04:49:38] <NathanP> but I thought, no, forget it, yo home to BelAir!
[04:49:54] <NathanP> (Sorry, saw the photo.)
[04:50:07] <NathanP> <DraX> i'd really like this stupid r5 compatability goal to go away,
[04:50:24] <NathanP> Actually Haiku has become less compatible with R5 over the years, in my opinion.
[04:50:38] <DDevine> lol
[04:50:40] <DraX> it was a good goal, you know, 8 years ago
[04:50:42] <DraX> it's not anymore
[04:50:58] <NathanP> We have Hybrid GCC, what more do you want!?
[04:51:06] <DraX> updated apis
[04:51:15] <DDevine> I think it is a good goal, though yes I too would like to start getting away from BeOS.
[04:51:26] <DraX> and the total eradincation of gcc2
[04:51:38] <DraX> no os should ever gcc2 anymore, it's downright prehistoric
[04:51:48] <DraX> s/ever/have/
[04:51:59] <NathanP> I see what you mean.
[04:52:06] <NathanP> One part of me is saying, drop it to move forward.
[04:52:16] <DraX> and trying to make things compile on gcc2 just slows down development
[04:52:19] <NathanP> But another wants to try and keep it for old time's memories sake.
[04:52:47] *** Cammy has quit IRC
[04:52:52] *** mmadia has quit IRC
[04:52:55] <NathanP> (Also because I'm an evil driver whore who steals Haiku's latest drivers and recompiles them for ZETA and BeOS)
[04:52:58] <NathanP> Muahahahaha.
[04:53:29] <DraX> i'm looking to haiku to be my main desktop OS once some more things fall into place
[04:53:44] <NathanP> We have Flash, what more do you want!?
[04:54:00] <DraX> heh, gnash
[04:54:08] <NathanP> Alright, Gnash sucks, I know.
[04:54:10] <DraX> though at least itlooks like gnash is going to get working avm2 in a bit
[04:54:20] <DraX> and it seems like swfdec is deadish
[04:54:28] <NathanP> We need a updated Wine port to take advantage of the Windows flash player, perhaps? ;)
[04:54:32] <NathanP> Cheap fix ahoy.
[04:54:44] <NathanP> I hates Swfdec.
[04:54:48] <NathanP> Hated.*
[04:54:57] <DraX> i hated the swfdec developers
[04:55:17] <DDevine> NathanP: updating the Wine port would be *HARD!*
[04:55:20] <NathanP> We had a Java port going, but I have no idea where that ha went to.
[04:55:26] <NathanP> DDevine, it's worth the challenge.
[04:55:27] <DraX> they took their whole no crash policy to a remove code if we aren't activly running it on a devel-machine straregy
[04:55:29] <NathanP> To Haikuware bounties!
[04:55:38] <DDevine> Wine isn't really a simple beast.
[04:55:41] <NathanP> Add a $33,000 bounty for CodeWeavers to port it.
[04:55:50] <DraX> i actually want to do a bounty for java
[04:55:53] <DDevine> Why CodeWeavers?
[04:56:02] <NathanP> Because they hire some of the best Wine developers?
[04:56:03] <DraX> andrew and mvfranz and crew deserve some cash when they pull it off :)
[04:56:21] <NathanP> We had a Java port set-up.
[04:56:31] <NathanP> No idea how it's gone, since it seems dead in the water.
[04:56:32] <DraX> it's being worked on
[04:56:50] <DraX> http://hg.openjdk.java.net/haiku/haiku/hotspot/summary
[04:57:01] <DraX> which seems to be dead right now..
[04:57:04] <NathanP> Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at hg.openjdk.java.net
[04:57:06] <NathanP> Yep.
[04:57:10] <NathanP> Ha ha ha.
[04:57:21] <mvfranz> NathanP the OpenJDK port is alive - it is a little slow at the moment
[04:57:36] <NathanP> Well, God speed with it's development, then.
[04:57:43] <NathanP> It's an important port, in my opinion.
[04:58:02] <DraX> I'm going to start working on a dns component to net_server once axeld and I agree on how it should work. :)
[04:58:12] <DraX> java is necessary for me to use haiku as a work OS
[04:58:18] <DDevine> Yeah I saw that in the mailing list
[04:58:47] <DDevine> DNS in net_server definitely would be nice.
[04:58:53] <NathanP> Indeed it would.
[04:59:03] <mvfranz> NathanP I agree, the good thing is the andrew and brian had a lot of work done for 1.4 and they are able to use that for jdk 7
[04:59:04] <DraX> DNS that isn't 20 different conflicting resolvers would be nice
[04:59:26] <NathanP> Yes, I recall Brian being behind Java for the BeOS.
[04:59:34] <DraX> there needs to be one, and only one mechanism for resolving names
[05:00:10] <NathanP> I'd also like to see an updated web server package for Haiku too.
[05:00:21] <NathanP> He he, I'd love to host something on a Haiku box. ;)
[05:00:27] <DDevine> Does Apache work on Haiku?
[05:00:36] <NathanP> There's an older port for BeOS, I believe.
[05:00:50] <jmayfield_> i have run a couple servers with haiku
[05:00:52] <DDevine> NathanP: I will probably be hosting something on Haiku using CherryPy
[05:00:58] <DDevine> It works.
[05:01:17] <NathanP> If I can manage to get IPB working on a Haiku Server, I will celebrate.
[05:01:17] <jmayfield_> too bad cherrypy is crap :-p
[05:01:19] <DraX> apache is something that works in the nether regions of *nix
[05:01:19] <jmayfield_> hehe
[05:01:25] <DraX> so has the potential to be more complicated to port
[05:01:28] <DDevine> na its good
[05:01:36] <DDevine> whats wrong with CherryPy?
[05:01:38] <jmayfield_> ....at being crappy
[05:01:43] <NathanP> The name?
[05:02:03] <DDevine> What would you use instead of CherryPy (though Web.py is good too)
[05:02:15] <DraX> web.py isn'tan http server
[05:02:15] <NathanP> Apache, or AOL Server.
[05:02:19] <jmayfield_> actually, CP isnt *that* bad.. i just wouldnr use it by choice, unless my other choice was some big thing like django or turbogears
[05:02:23] <DDevine> DraX: It can be one
[05:02:41] <DraX> fapws2 <3
[05:02:47] <NathanP> I'd be really interested in AOL Server.
[05:02:55] <NathanP> But that's just because I'm special like that.
[05:02:56] <jmayfield_> DDevine, hmm.. twisted/nevow, tornado, maybe pylons
[05:02:56] <DDevine> jmayfield_: Turbogears is CherryPy. I didn't want a big framework though.
[05:03:18] <NathanP> Hm...
[05:03:21] *** mvfranz has quit IRC
[05:03:22] <DDevine> jmayfield_: Yeah twisted and tornado are ok, but I like CherryPy.
[05:03:31] <DraX> we use pylons at work, it's ok
[05:03:35] <DDevine> It has just what I want and nothing more.
[05:03:55] <NathanP> By R1, I'd expect Haiku to be rather idea for a server, stability wise.
[05:04:05] <NathanP> But, server=/media/desktop OS.
[05:04:18] <DDevine> No, Haiku is a desktop OS first and foremost.
[05:04:28] <NathanP> Which is my point.
[05:04:46] <DDevine> Yeah I'm doing a few things at once so I missed that
[05:07:34] <NathanP> I'm positive FinallyFast made a Mac application just to make themselves seem less like marketing idiots.

[05:20:43] <NathanP> Say, wait, isn't that my ticket?

[05:27:27] <jmayfield_> heh
[05:27:29] <NathanP> True.
[05:27:37] <NathanP> For example, why do we have Windows?
[05:27:42] <NathanP> Doesn't Mac OS do all of that?
[05:27:50] <jmayfield_> suck? yeah
[05:27:50] <DraX> i'm perfectly fine where i am on the slippery slope :P
[05:28:16] <NathanP> Touche, jmayfield.
[05:28:54] *** DDevine has quit IRC
[05:30:19] <NathanP> Let's drop GCC4 and go to GCC1.
[05:30:23] <NathanP> I'm going to make a ticket for that.
[05:30:28] <NathanP> Make it a major enhancement.
[05:30:36] <jmayfield_> the only time i really think about mac being better in some way than windows is when i have to fire up a shell
[05:30:43] *** CaptainPike has quit IRC
[05:30:57] <DraX> and then you realize that what's available in the shell is actually a complte mess?
[05:31:23] <NathanP> Bash the basher.
[05:31:26] <DraX> neither a bsd or a gnu userland, configuration files in place that don't actually configure the software on the machine
[05:31:33] <jmayfield_> heh.. as long as i dont have to use the f;ing windows command shell, its a good day
[05:31:33] <DraX> DNS being the best/worst
[05:31:47] <jmayfield_> but yeah.. osx pisses me off
[05:31:48] <DraX> the dns configuration files configure certain dns components but not all of them
[05:32:03] <DraX> OS X is actually fine if you don't touch the terminal
[05:32:13] <NathanP> Man up, do it by hand!
[05:32:18] <DraX> but touching the terminal is a sure source of annoyance if tyou're used to *nix
[05:32:26] <jmayfield_> um.. but the UI is horrid.. terminal is the best part
[05:32:44] <NathanP> I do love terminals.
[05:32:49] <NathanP> I prefer CLI over GUI.
[05:32:57] <DraX> i just use emacs for everything
[05:33:02] <DraX> irc, im, email, text editing
[05:33:04] <NathanP> Nano, here.
[05:33:05] <jmayfield_> heh
[05:33:07] <DraX> twitter
[05:33:31] <Devine> I use Nano too :P
[05:33:41] <Devine> Vi is ok.. I can't get used to emacs.
[05:34:00] <DraX> use viper mode ;)
[05:34:08] <DraX> vi emulator in emacs
[05:34:31] <DraX> i actually heard of some guy working a vimscript interpreter for emacs the other day
[05:34:36] <DraX> mainly for color themes
[05:35:00] *** CaptainPike has joined #haiku
[05:35:00] <jmayfield_> vim (with or without pida) and sometimes eclipse/pydev.. thats my daily coding environment
[05:35:32] <Devine> In the GUI I use Kate + terminal... Don't like eclipse.
[05:35:44] <jmayfield_> pydev is great
[05:36:00] <jmayfield_> if you invest the time to get used to eclipse, it can be really good
[05:36:13] <NathanP> Wordpad."
[05:36:16] <NathanP> I use Wordpad.
[05:36:20] <Devine> I'm willing to revisit Eclipse. I don't hate it yet.
[05:36:31] <Devine> Wordpad is useless, you have to use notepad.
[05:36:34] <DraX> occasionally i use the hexeditor in emacs to edit utf-8
[05:37:32] <jmayfield_> Devine, like i saud, pydev is wonderful.. and you dont get a better integrated svn situation than subclipse, imho
[05:37:48] <NathanP> I like Wordpad. It formats all my PHP code.
[05:38:05] <jmayfield_> :-php
[05:38:21] <Devine> PHP is OK,but I've grown out of it.
[05:38:29] <Devine> I prefer Python.
[05:38:35] <NathanP> I was messing with ASP for awhile, but realized it sickens me.
[05:38:44] <NathanP> "I know ASP!"
[05:38:47] <NathanP> "Big deal!"
[05:38:50] <Devine> ASP is *really* s***
[05:38:51] <NathanP> Next day...
[05:38:56] <NathanP> "I know PHP!"
[05:39:03] <NathanP> "Awesome! Can I have your number!?"
[05:39:22] <Devine> ASP sites are ALWAYS down lol.
[05:39:22] <DraX> anyone know anything about the acer revo?
[05:39:28] <NathanP> Yeah, chicks dig safe mode being off. ;)
[05:40:04] * NathanP couldn't resist. Though, still, I suggest safe mode be off. I hate when it's on.
[05:40:05] <DraX> thinking about getting one as a haiku box
[05:40:05] *** CaptainPike_hero has quit IRC
[05:40:12] <jmayfield_> think of how much time is wasted by people having to unlearn everything they picked up in their 'php days'
[05:40:24] <jmayfield_> hehe
[05:40:36] <NathanP> Yes, the instincts don't work so well in ASP>
[05:41:37] <NathanP> "I know HTML!"
[05:41:43] <NathanP> "Everyone does, wannabe."
[05:41:59] <NathanP> It just ain't so cool anymore. :(
[05:43:21] <Devine> Well... everybody does know HTML....
[05:43:36] <NathanP> I've heard even preschoolers know it these days.
[05:43:49] <Devine> Though 90% of the "web designers" that come out of university are horrid.
[05:44:12] <Devine> absolutely fricken horrid.
[05:44:20] <NathanP> Web developers with OCD do best, I hear.
[05:45:59] <NathanP> I hate web developers who do messy code, most.
[05:46:26] <NathanP> I always have to go through things and make sure everything works right, or is at least cleaned up.
[05:48:05] <CaptainPike> How does Haiku identify itself to #ifdef directives? (gcc4, C/C++ code). For example, is it: _HAIKU_ or haiku or POSIX or Linux, etc?
[05:50:52] <NathanP> I honestly have no idea.
[05:51:01] <NathanP> Though I doubt in any case it would be Linux.
[05:55:03] *** bknoedel has joined #haiku
[05:56:23] <Devine> I find the designs that a lot of the designers come up with are just convoluted or fashion statements.
[05:56:49] <Devine> I have nothing against fancy web design, but they often do it when there is abosolutely no need.
[05:57:16] <NathanP> When my project requires allot of creativity, I let it fly.
[05:57:30] <NathanP> When it's a serious business portal, I don't have pink scribbles going around it.
[05:57:36] <Devine> That, and they often have no regard for W3C standards or any browser besides IE6
[05:57:59] <NathanP> And all my sites lack support for anything lower than IE8.
[05:58:09] <NathanP> If they don't want to upgrade, it's their fault.
[05:58:23] <NathanP> Even if it'll work, I still deny access if it's my choice.
[05:58:27] <Devine> I don't support IE at all, but IE7 and newer seem to work generally.
[05:58:38] <NathanP> If I could, I'
[05:58:42] <NathanP> d block IE completely.
[05:58:46] <NathanP> God aweful browser.
[05:58:56] <Devine> You can block it completely.
[05:59:00] <Devine> Use Browscap.
[05:59:01] <NathanP> Stunted the growth of the web enough.
[05:59:17] <NathanP> (If I COULD, as in not kill my business.)
[05:59:46] <NathanP> Actually, that reminds me.
[05:59:53] <NathanP> I'm featured on saveie6.com
[05:59:58] *** hoelzro has quit IRC
[06:00:01] <Devine> wut?
[06:00:23] <NathanP> Pingdom made a joke site for IE6.
[06:00:25] <NathanP> http://saveie6.com/
[06:00:45] <NathanP> They allow comments to be addeed and pick some of the best on their feature page.
[06:00:56] <NathanP> http://saveie6.com/buzz.php
[06:00:59] <NathanP> The top one is mine.
[06:01:19] <NathanP> I'm quite proud of that. (Sad, yes?)
[06:01:37] *** skarmiglione has joined #haiku
[06:01:42] *** skarmiglione has left #haiku
[06:02:04] <Devine> lol
[06:02:24] <NathanP> I was surprised one day to see my comment being featured on their front page.
[06:02:34] <NathanP> I didn't realize it was that good. :p
[06:02:49] *** judgen has quit IRC
[06:02:58] *** bknoedel has quit IRC
[06:09:20] <NathanP> For an April Fool's day, I'm going to make some of my sites IE6 only.
[06:09:28] <NathanP> Just to see who actually downgrades. :p
[06:09:32] <gtaw> Haha
[06:09:34] <gtaw> That's cold
[06:10:21] <Devine> You can't downgrade without reinstalling Windows.
[06:10:52] <geist> boy i'm thinkin about it
[06:10:54] <NathanP> Exactly. ;)
[06:11:05] <geist> can't say win7 is a total disaster, but it's definitely not smooth sailing for me
[06:11:07] <gtaw> Make a bunch of broken menus, NathanP.
[06:11:26] <NathanP> Same, geist. It's much better than Vista, but I still prefer XP any day.
[06:11:46] <NathanP> No, make everything transparent PNG's, too, gtaw.
[06:11:47] <Devine> XP is too ancient.
[06:12:03] <geist> yeah. now i've gotten it to where it's basically okay except: a) can't install some old drivers that will *never* be resigned
[06:12:09] <Devine> I don't own a copy of Windows though so I don't have to worry about WIndows. Thinking of buying a copy though sometime.
[06:12:10] <geist> and b) it blues screens about twice a day
[06:12:17] <geist> i'm assuming b will go away with more mature drives
[06:12:20] <geist> drivers
[06:12:27] <geist> a is just a total bitch
[06:12:33] <NathanP> I bought Windows 7 just for the try factor.
[06:12:45] <geist> all in all though it's faster and realtively smooth
[06:12:45] <Devine> I used a Win 7 RC
[06:12:46] <NathanP> I may put it on a more dedicated partition after SP1.
[06:13:11] <Devine> Win 7 is all hype though, cause Windows still sucks for everything besides games.
[06:13:12] <geist> i should install visual studio 2005 though and see if it's even going to run
[06:13:18] <geist> if it doesn,t then i'm gonna have to go back to xp
[06:13:23] <NathanP> XP Mode?
[06:13:26] <geist> no way i'm buying a new copy, and i still do a bit of hacking
[06:13:59] <NathanP> Devine, I thought Wine was doing fine for me in that department.
[06:14:19] <NathanP> I thought XP mode worked pretty decent, though it's pretty much just like Win4Lin on Linux.
[06:14:22] <Devine> NathanP: Yeah I use Wine, but its not half as good as playing on Windows generally.
[06:14:32] <NathanP> Sadely, yes.
[06:14:40] <NathanP> But, CrossOver Games gets the job done.
[06:14:54] <NathanP> At least CodeWeavers makes sure their supported apps remain working.
[06:15:02] <Devine> A lot of big name games work, but without the full DX9 or DX10/11 experience...
[06:15:45] <Devine> I just compile a different version of Wine and have it installed in /opt
[06:15:51] <Devine> Are you using a Mac?
[06:15:57] *** prOSy has joined #haiku
[06:16:01] <NathanP> Linux. Never cared for Macs.
[06:16:09] <Devine> We are on the same page then
[06:16:27] <NathanP> I wish CodeWeavers would polish the app, though.
[06:16:38] <NathanP> On Mac OS X, it looks clean and really nice.
[06:16:47] <geist> wish i didn't occasionally play games or i'd just go full mac
[06:16:49] <NathanP> On Linux, looks like... Well, X, I suppose.
[06:16:51] <Devine> Just use Wine...No polish required.
[06:17:02] <geist> Monkey hate windows
[06:17:06] <NathanP> I do use Wine when I need to, but I prefer CrossOver.
[06:17:45] <NathanP> For the fact that it trys to keep compatibility, pluss I support Wine development with my subscriptions.
[06:18:07] <Devine> Yeah thats a good thing.
[06:18:15] <Devine> Codeweavers need to be supported.
[06:18:53] <NathanP> There also the only people paying for 24/7 Wine jobs.
[06:19:13] <NathanP> Without CodeWeavers, we would be up the river with a broken paddle with what they've contributed.
[06:20:10] <Devine> No thanks to Cedega... bastars.
[06:20:22] <NathanP> I bought a subscription just to try it.
[06:20:28] <NathanP> As expected, it was half baked to Hell and back.
[06:20:38] <NathanP> They don't even try to delete the forum threads, too.
[06:20:40] <Devine> Yeah that's what I found too.
[06:21:16] <NathanP> They leach off the Wine project, and only started giving back when they had to under it's new license.
[06:23:10] <NathanP> Well, let's tally how many Windows for Linux solutions there are.
[06:23:19] <NathanP> There is Wine, of course, which has branches of:
[06:23:22] <NathanP> CrossOver
[06:23:33] <NathanP> Cedega, TransGaming's other offerings
[06:23:52] <NathanP> Bordeaux, which focuses mainly on Photoshop.
[06:24:01] *** xvedejas has quit IRC
[06:24:21] <NathanP> And there's also Win4Lin, which after recent updates, became crap.
[06:27:35] <Devine> Win4Lin? Why not jsut use VirtualBox in integration mode?
[06:27:55] <NathanP> Eh, I've used Win4Lin for years.
[06:28:09] <NathanP> I'm hoping it'll make a comeback in development.
[06:28:45] <Devine> Seriously, just use VirtualBox.
[06:28:54] <NathanP> I use VMWare Workstation these days.
[06:29:09] <Devine> The non-open source version (free) does everything you could possibly want.
[06:29:22] <NathanP> I've used VirtualBox.
[06:29:42] <NathanP> I even keep it in places where it's needed. (Like eComStation.)
[06:29:57] <NathanP> It's come a long way, now even having Direct3D.
[06:30:25] <NathanP> (Which might I add is almost as good as VMWare, even supporting the non-proprietary graphics drivers, which VMWare bitched about.)
[06:31:03] <NathanP> Unity mode has always been welcomed.
[06:32:57] <NathanP> I'm going to be upgrading my hardware soon.
[06:33:17] <NathanP> One of the things on my list: a Processor that supports virtualization.
[06:34:24] <Devine> Even low end AMD processors support virtualization
[06:34:43] <NathanP> Needs to be Intel in this case.
[06:34:50] <NathanP> This P4 doesn't.
[06:34:59] <Devine> P4?
[06:35:10] <Devine> Just upgrade to a C2D or AMD setup.
[06:35:19] <NathanP> I'm using P4 at 2.75 Ghz, I believe.
[06:35:27] <Devine> P4 is aaaaanchient.
[06:35:34] <NathanP> Ha ha! Came with the system!
[06:35:43] <NathanP> I bought it specifically for BeOS-related ventures.
[06:35:43] *** {V} has joined #haiku
[06:35:54] <NathanP> Like all my computers, I think with that thought process in mind.
[06:36:10] <Devine> Just spend $250 and get new mobo, RAM and CPU. Will blow your P4 setup out of the water effortlessly.
[06:36:29] <Devine> My gaming machine runs Haiku fine.
[06:36:53] <NathanP> Getting a two HD's, a new processor, 2/4G Ram (We'll see...).
[06:36:53] <Devine> I didn't even buy the parts with Haiku in mind.
[06:37:12] <NathanP> I'm moving into a Haiku-supported platform these days.
[06:37:18] <CIA-69> scottmc * r480 /haikuports/trunk/media-libs/ (libdca libdca/libdca-0.0.5.bep): Initial .bep file for libdca
[06:37:19] <NathanP> I have a P3 I use for BeOS. :)
[06:37:25] <Devine> May as well get a new mobo. It really does make more sense.
[06:37:43] <NathanP> Might, but I'll have to see what Genny says about it.
[06:38:41] <helf|laptop> $250 can build you a "pentium dualcore" tower thats ~2.4ghz with 1-2gb ram, 500gb hdd...
[06:38:54] <NathanP> Sounds fair.
[06:39:04] <NathanP> Genny might like that.
[06:39:13] <helf|laptop> its what im thinking about doing
[06:39:25] <Devine> AMD is much better value under $500
[06:40:14] <helf|laptop> not really
[06:40:18] <helf|laptop> well
[06:40:20] <helf|laptop> depends, i guess
[06:40:31] <helf|laptop> for well under $500, you can build a fast core2 machine
[06:40:32] <NathanP> I wonder if any of you are curious as to who Genny is.
[06:40:40] <helf|laptop> your daughter? :P
[06:40:48] <NathanP> No, the computer.
[06:40:55] <helf|laptop> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116072
[06:41:07] <helf|laptop> that chip will clock in at 3.5ghz pretty easily on the stock cooler iirc
[06:41:20] <helf|laptop> dualcore, 2mb cache, etc
[06:41:26] <NathanP> 66 Bucks too. Pretty nice deal.
[06:41:30] <helf|laptop> yep
[06:41:36] <NathanP> I haven't overclocked in ages.
[06:41:37] <helf|laptop> and you can get a decent board for $50-75
[06:41:45] <helf|laptop> and ddr2 ram is dirt
[06:41:52] <helf|laptop> 1gb would run like $25
[06:42:00] <helf|laptop> maybe less
[06:42:04] <NathanP> I was considering custom-building, but decided to just upgrade what I have for now.
[06:42:26] <helf|laptop> depending on the board you got, you could upgrade a machine built with that for awhile
[06:42:39] <helf|laptop> a good board can handle a quadcore chip with no issues
[06:42:52] <NathanP> Dell Dimension D6000, I believe.
[06:43:04] <helf|laptop> whats the specs on it?
[06:43:06] <NathanP> 4600*
[06:43:36] <helf|laptop> Devine, Intels lowend chips are faster than AMDs clock for clock in the same price range
[06:43:46] <helf|laptop> unless you can get a triple or wuadcore phenomII for $66
[06:43:50] <NathanP> 1GB Ram, 120GB HD (Currently failing.), Intel P4 Processor, 2.75Ghz, Nvidia GeForce 6600 at 256.
[06:43:56] *** gtaw has quit IRC
[06:44:00] <Devine> I don't think they are faster clock for clock.
[06:44:03] <helf|laptop> NathanP, i'd just build a new machine :P
[06:44:05] <Devine> Last I looked anyway
[06:44:15] <NathanP> Aw, but you don't know me, helf|laptop.
[06:44:26] <helf|laptop> Devine, its probably a toss up
[06:44:32] <Devine> NathanP: Build a new machine!
[06:44:33] <helf|laptop> but they still draw more power and produce more heat
[06:44:51] <helf|laptop> NathanP, you are probably like me and will dump as much money in an old machine to beef it up as it would cost to buld a new one
[06:45:19] *** Sryche has quit IRC
[06:45:34] <helf|laptop> i mean, how many people have a dual p3-s 1.4ghz machine with 1.5gb ram, a 500gb and a 300gb sata drive, dvd burner, nvidia 9400gt 1gb video card? ;)
[06:45:50] <NathanP> Actually, I do.
[06:45:54] <NathanP> His name is Theodore.
[06:46:10] <helf|laptop> heh
[06:46:20] <helf|laptop> im actually planning on upgrading this machine a bit more
[06:46:41] <NathanP> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811156062
[06:46:47] <NathanP> Might get this... >_>
[06:46:48] <Devine> All three of my 500GB drives are failing :S There is something funny about the 500GB drives. I have Western Digital and Seagates. I want to try Samsungs next (I hear they are great)
[06:47:00] <NathanP> I bought this off eBay.
[06:47:05] <NathanP> The one with the failing HD.*
[06:47:14] <NathanP> So, I can imagine why it cost so little.
[06:47:25] <NathanP> He even re-installed Windows for me on the machine.
[06:47:27] *** Sryche has joined #haiku
[06:47:29] <NathanP> Just... Didn't add drivers.
[06:47:34] <helf|laptop> Devine, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103711
[06:47:40] <NathanP> So... Why do I do? Install Zeta over it. :P
[06:47:46] <helf|laptop> that actually is probably faster than that $66 intel chip :P
[06:47:57] <NathanP> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811103010
[06:48:09] <NathanP> Nothing like a giant jet engine sticking outta' your ports.
[06:48:19] <helf|laptop> NathanP, want me to build you a newegg wishlist later? :P
[06:48:31] <NathanP> Heh, I'll have to consult my budget.
[06:48:32] <helf|laptop> i have an awesome desktop orientated case that i would recommend to anyone
[06:48:40] <helf|laptop> it was for a failed build
[06:48:42] <helf|laptop> never used
[06:48:49] <NathanP> I'd like to get a C64's case.'
[06:48:50] <helf|laptop> i opened it up once and havent touched it. ill sell it ;)
[06:48:57] <NathanP> Then rig it out to have in it some modern hardware.
[06:49:02] <helf|laptop> heh
[06:49:04] <helf|laptop> that would be great
[06:49:11] <DraX> woo ldns compiled without a hitch \o/
[06:49:17] <NathanP> If I had an empty C64 case, believe me, I would do it.
[06:49:19] <helf|laptop> heck, if you REALLY tried, you could build an i5 rig for $350
[06:49:33] <NathanP> Then I can say my web servers are powered by Commodore 64's.
[06:49:41] <helf|laptop> Devine, you cna build a good i5 tower for under $500. im pretty sure thatll beat anything amd :)
[06:49:58] <Devine> That Raidmax case is pretty cool, but I don't think they sell Raidmax cases in Australia
[06:50:09] <NathanP> That'd be pretty awesome too.
[06:50:22] <Devine> helf|laptop: If I am going to spend money on a new setup I am going i7 or nothing.
[06:50:22] <NathanP> "The only web host using C64's to handle your data."
[06:50:24] <helf|laptop> right now i just need/want storage
[06:50:33] <NathanP> Yeah, I can see the money flowing in at that thought.
[06:50:46] <helf|laptop> Devine, you can go i5 and upgrade to an i7 later on if you wanted to save some cash while prices drop
[06:51:05] <Devine> Yeah I thought about doing that
[06:51:09] <Devine> We will see next year.
[06:51:13] <helf|laptop> yeah
[06:51:15] <helf|laptop> im waiting
[06:51:25] <helf|laptop> maybe by next year, i can afford the 6core i7s :P
[06:51:25] <Devine> i7 920 is a great chip (good overclocker too)
[06:51:45] <helf|laptop> the i7-870 is apparently better
[06:51:47] <helf|laptop> *850
[06:51:50] <helf|laptop> or whatever it is
[06:52:05] <NathanP> I should buy a machine with an Intel graphics card.
[06:52:10] <helf|laptop> Devine, it keeps up with or beats the 920 in most benchmarks and it overclocks well
[06:52:20] <helf|laptop> NathanP, ...why?
[06:52:26] <NathanP> I hear they're the best out there.
[06:52:34] * helf|laptop falls over laughing
[06:52:49] <Devine> NathanP: are you freakin serious?
[06:52:57] <NathanP> Yes, are they good?
[06:53:05] <Devine> Intel = fail.
[06:53:14] <NathanP> No, they must be good!
[06:53:14] <helf|laptop> they blow
[06:53:22] <NathanP> If they can do processors, why not graphics!
[06:53:29] <helf|laptop> They are good for 2d stuff and hd video acceleration
[06:53:31] <helf|laptop> and thats about it
[06:53:32] <Devine> Intel graphics blow chunks.
[06:53:35] <NathanP> No, I'm not serious.
[06:53:41] <helf|laptop> :P
[06:53:43] <NathanP> God, I hate Intel graphics with a passion.
[06:53:57] <helf|laptop> my GMA950 runs fine on this laptop ;)
[06:54:02] <helf|laptop> with ubuntu
[06:54:04] <helf|laptop> sucks in windows
[06:54:10] <helf|laptop> composition is nice, tho
[06:54:21] <Devine> I am thinking about switching from Nvidia to ATi.
[06:54:31] <jmayfield_> hi helf|laptop
[06:54:54] <prOSy> [07:01] <helf|laptop> my GMA950 runs fine on this laptop ;) <--------- also with Haiku?
[06:55:08] <Devine> I would like to be able to take advantage of the open source driver work with ATi.
[06:55:11] *** CaptainPike has quit IRC
[06:55:45] <NathanP> God, Devine, no!
[06:55:52] <NathanP> Not Ati, especially Not Ati on Linux.
[06:56:02] <helf|laptop> ati on linux sucks unless its an older card
[06:56:07] <helf|laptop> prOSy, never tried
[06:56:11] <Devine> NathanP: I know all about teh suckyness.
[06:56:11] <NathanP> No, it sucks WITH older cards.
[06:56:14] <helf|laptop> hey jmayfield
[06:56:17] <NathanP> Just ask my X300 Mobility.
[06:56:23] <prOSy> helf|laptop: ok, thx
[06:56:23] <helf|laptop> NathanP, no, i mean OLDER
[06:56:28] <helf|laptop> my radeon 7000 runs great
[06:56:34] <NathanP> Older?
[06:56:35] <Devine> I know of the suckyness, but I figure they are making a lot of progress.
[06:56:36] <helf|laptop> with full composition support :P
[06:56:41] <NathanP> Well, I do have a nVidia Riva TNT2.
[06:56:49] <NathanP> Around that generation in age, you mean?
[06:56:54] <NathanP> (Ignore that it's Nvidia.)
[06:56:54] <helf|laptop> prOSy, ill try it out those when i get a new hdd for this laptop :)
[06:57:17] <Devine> And they run will in Windows, (I will have Windows available on my new setup) so I figure an ATi is a distinct possibility in my new setup.
[06:57:20] <prOSy> ok
[06:57:36] <NathanP> ATI hates Linux.
[06:57:46] <helf|laptop> most hardware vendors hate linux
[06:57:51] <NathanP> nVidia doesn't.
[06:57:53] <prOSy> i will try my Board w i945gfx chip then
[06:57:59] <helf|laptop> NathanP, yes tehy do
[06:58:00] <NathanP> They have drivers for even their TNT's!
[06:58:06] <prOSy> still waiting for a cheap cpu... ;-)
[06:58:07] <helf|laptop> imagine having to create new kernel stubs all the time
[06:58:16] <NathanP> I can imagine the hell.
[06:58:18] <Devine> The new open source ATi drivers aren't too bad. Though nvidia works awesomely...
[06:58:22] <NathanP> Still, they do better than ATI.
[06:58:36] <helf|laptop> prOSy, need an upgrade? :) what are you running now?
[06:58:40] <Devine> Nvidia pwns on Linux.
[06:59:00] <helf|laptop> it still blows chunks comapred to their windows counterparts
[06:59:02] *** miqlas has joined #haiku
[06:59:06] <helf|laptop> hey miqlas
[06:59:36] <prOSy> helf|laptop: running C2Q w GF6600 gfx card
[06:59:50] <prOSy> runs like hell w Haiku :D
[06:59:55] <helf|laptop> i imagine! :D
[07:00:08] <helf|laptop> that is way faster than anything i currently have. heh
[07:00:09] * prOSy is wondering how the Hell is able to run...
[07:00:15] <helf|laptop> my fastest machine is this core duo 1.6 laptop
[07:00:22] <NathanP> Even Vesa is fast in Haiku.
[07:00:29] * prOSy is not native english, so sorry ;-)
[07:00:29] <helf|laptop> NathanP, depends on the machine
[07:00:34] <NathanP> True.
[07:00:39] <helf|laptop> vesa on my nvidia 9400gt pci card on my dual tualatins SUCKS
[07:00:40] <NathanP> I retract that comment.
[07:00:49] <prOSy> running 12 Videos in vesa
[07:00:51] <NathanP> *Vesa on some machines are fairly fast.
[07:00:53] <NathanP> Better?
[07:00:54] <helf|laptop> but on newer hardware, it apparnetly runs great
[07:01:24] <helf|laptop> prOSy, you have FOUR cpus to drive it, tho :P
[07:01:49] *** mmadia has joined #haiku
[07:02:05] <NathanP> I've ran Haiku on 2 CPU's.
[07:02:11] <NathanP> I had fun switching 'em on and off.
[07:02:15] <NathanP> Running a hella'
[07:02:20] <NathanP> lot demos, switching them.
[07:02:29] <NathanP> Still went fairly nice with one off.
[07:02:56] <helf|laptop> i need to run haiku with a properly accelerated video card
[07:02:56] <OmniMancer> is there any way you could accidentally turn off both?
[07:03:05] <helf|laptop> the graphics performance left a lot to be desired on my machines
[07:03:12] <prOSy> helf|laptop: http://picasaweb.google.com/zer0xEB/HAIKUScreenshows#
[07:03:16] <helf|laptop> OmniMancer, i dont think the tool will let you do that
[07:03:35] <NathanP> OmniMancer, believe me, I tried.
[07:03:42] <NathanP> It doesn't.
[07:03:49] <helf|laptop> prOSy, nice :D
[07:03:56] <NathanP> It says "Are you stupid? Don't try it!."
[07:04:12] <NathanP> There should be a "Do it" option. ;)
[07:04:56] <helf|laptop> does haiku support hyperthreading on i7 chips yet?
[07:05:09] <helf|laptop> or even on p4s?
[07:05:13] <NathanP> No idea.
[07:05:23] <NathanP> If it does, I wouldn't know. It didn't boot on my machine with it.
[07:05:27] <helf|laptop> i should install it on my xeon
[07:05:29] <prOSy> helf|laptop: would be nice, because a quadcore would provide 8 logical cpus
[07:05:33] <helf|laptop> yeah
[07:05:44] <helf|laptop> and 10-30% performance boost
[07:05:50] <helf|laptop> per core
[07:06:12] <helf|laptop> my xeon is dual 2.2ghz p4s with HT
[07:06:19] <helf|laptop> be nice to have a "quadcore" haiku box
[07:06:32] *** bbjimmy has quit IRC
[07:06:35] <prOSy> hehe, performance Junkies surrounding me in the Haiku world (and: i am infected too since 2001... :-) )
[07:06:51] *** miqlas has quit IRC
[07:06:58] <NathanP> "Because one processor is not enough."
[07:07:02] <helf|laptop> prOSy, trust me, if i had the money, i'd be using a quad 6core xeon box :P
[07:07:07] <NathanP> I read that somewhere, can't remember, though.
[07:07:13] <NathanP> Think it was a Windows computing magazine.
[07:07:13] <prOSy> NathanP: true!
[07:07:36] <helf|laptop> http://www.edkeyes.org/blog/050505.html
[07:07:37] <NathanP> (If anyone Does know where that really comes from... ;) )
[07:07:38] <prOSy> Jean Louis Gassee: one processor per person is not enough... afair
[07:07:39] <helf|laptop> that maybe? :P
[07:07:48] <NathanP> Damn you!
[07:08:00] <NathanP> prOSy, I hate you. :(
[07:08:08] <helf|laptop> heh
[07:08:09] <prOSy> helf|laptop: would be interesting how haiku is scaling on such a lot CPUs
[07:08:16] <helf|laptop> it would be
[07:08:27] <helf|laptop> too bad those 6 core xeon chips still run $1500-2k
[07:08:41] <prOSy> uhh ohh, that is expensive
[07:08:45] <helf|laptop> yeah
[07:08:49] <helf|laptop> 18cores would be fun, tho
[07:09:02] <NathanP> What about 50 cores? ;)
[07:09:08] <helf|laptop> prOSy, intel is supposedly releasing 8 core xeon i7s next year
[07:09:19] <helf|laptop> so a dual 8core rig would give you 32 logical cores
[07:09:19] <helf|laptop> :D
[07:09:34] <NathanP> We're almost there, then, helf|laptop.
[07:09:45] <NathanP> We need two dual 8core rigs, then.
[07:09:52] <NathanP> 64 cores!
[07:09:53] <NathanP> Muahahaha!
[07:09:54] <helf|laptop> or a quad 8core machine
[07:09:57] <NathanP> Have Pulse show THAT!
[07:10:00] <prOSy> when i can spend some time at work (maybe on christmas evening) i'll try haiku on our ESX servers and give that os 8 virtual cores, just for the screenshot ;-)
[07:10:01] <helf|laptop> heh
[07:10:17] <helf|laptop> prOSy, i could boot it up on our mac pro at work
[07:10:18] *** joeyadams has quit IRC
[07:10:21] <helf|laptop> its running dual quadcore xeons
[07:10:41] <prOSy> helf|laptop: nice! and interesting
[07:10:50] <helf|laptop> 3ghz chips and 16gb ram
[07:10:50] *** _arjen_ has joined #haiku
[07:11:06] <prOSy> i just ordered an old G3 just for trying Haiku on that old PPC HW
[07:11:16] <helf|laptop> does it even boot on ppc yet?
[07:11:17] <prOSy> well 10 Euros, not that much
[07:11:35] <prOSy> i did not get managed yet to boot from Haiku CD
[07:11:49] <prOSy> even the install of BeOS R5 failed
[07:12:04] <helf|laptop> r5 only boots on REALLY early g3 machines
[07:12:14] <prOSy> it is an old medical G3 Mac from GE (been sonographic machine)
[07:12:43] <prOSy> i'll give it a try next year again
[07:13:05] <helf|laptop> crap, ive gotta pay for that raid controller today
[07:13:13] <helf|laptop> stupid bank was closed yesterday
[07:13:35] <NathanP> Godspeed, helf|laptop!
[07:13:35] <helf|laptop> i scored a sata pci-x raid controller for $135 shipped :) still retails for $300
[07:13:51] <helf|laptop> supports up to raid-6 and has 256mb cache
[07:13:52] <prOSy> so, must leave for work now
[07:13:58] <helf|laptop> bye, prOSy
[07:14:01] <prOSy> laters peoples
[07:14:03] *** prOSy has quit IRC
[07:14:34] <NathanP> Pssh... Use Linspire.
[07:14:39] <helf|laptop> heh
[07:14:44] <helf|laptop> or hannah montanna linux
[07:15:03] <jmayfield_> jesux!
[07:15:17] <helf|laptop> wtf would possess someone to create that?
[07:15:30] <NathanP> You're looking at him, actually.
[07:15:34] <helf|laptop> you bastard
[07:15:36] <helf|laptop> :P
[07:15:39] <NathanP> Nathan P. creator of HML.
[07:15:45] <NathanP> I worked hard on the KDE theme.
[07:15:49] <helf|laptop> heh
[07:15:57] <helf|laptop> im hoping this raid card works well
[07:16:01] <NathanP> I admit, I should have done better with the sound.
[07:16:06] <helf|laptop> if it doe,s im buying a second one and then 8 1.5tb drives :)
[07:16:19] <NathanP> I hope the next release will include an updated interface and some more Hannah-specific apps.
[07:16:30] <helf|laptop> heh
[07:16:40] <NathanP> I might add a feed for some of Miley's social profiles.
[07:16:52] <helf|laptop> once i get that stuff working in my xoen, ill worry about building a newer tower. i want gobs of storage
[07:17:43] <Devine> NathanP: OMFG. Kubuntu is the WORST distro ever.
[07:17:54] <NathanP> I didn't mind it.
[07:17:59] <Devine> Never seen anything worse.
[07:18:03] * helf|laptop rather enjoys gnome
[07:18:06] <NathanP> I needed a quick set-up, and Kubuntu restricted extras did the trick.
[07:18:12] <helf|laptop> it does what it should and stays out of the way :)
[07:18:22] <Devine> I love KDE, but I hate Kubuntu. Any other distro does KDE better than Ubuntu,
[07:18:27] <NathanP> Planning to take advantage of Ubuntu's new boot.
[07:18:39] <helf|laptop> Devine, kubuntu is the bastard child anyways
[07:18:40] <NathanP> A Hannah Montana boot screen in higher quality will be nice.
[07:19:33] <NathanP> Thinking of a stage image with the lights being the loading screen. :)
[07:19:35] <NathanP> Any ideas?
[07:20:40] <jmayfield_> gnome
[07:20:51] <NathanP> No, has to be KDE.
[07:21:09] <NathanP> I might release a GNOME flavour, but it'll take some time.
[07:21:16] <helf|laptop> jmayfield, remember me mentioning my vans engine getting really rattly and thinking it was a bearing?
[07:21:21] <NathanP> Anyways, who actually thought I was behind HML?
[07:21:31] <Devine> NathanP: Me.
[07:21:33] <Devine> lol
[07:21:48] <NathanP> He he he.
[07:21:48] <jmayfield_> helf|laptop, yeah...
[07:21:58] <helf|laptop> jmayfield, yeah.. turns out it was an epic octane ping
[07:22:05] <NathanP> The fact that the real person behind it doesn't want to be known makes it easier to impersonate them!
[07:22:25] <helf|laptop> i ran a pint of marvel mystery oil through it and on my trip to texas and back i only put 89 octane in it and the rattle is totally gone
[07:22:40] <helf|laptop> the engine calls for 87, but im wondering if the new 10% ethanol mix is effing with it
[07:23:52] <helf|laptop> its a TBI engine with absolutely no way for the ECU to adjust for an ethanol mixture
[07:23:55] <NathanP> I should make a Jonas Brothers Linux.
[07:24:02] <helf|laptop> ugh
[07:24:04] <helf|laptop> :P
[07:24:08] <jmayfield_> heh
[07:24:11] <NathanP> Just so I can attend LinuxCon and say I am the guy.
[07:24:23] <NathanP> And get punched by Linus Torvalds.
[07:24:26] *** fhein has joined #haiku
[07:24:30] <NathanP> Man, that's be both painful and sexy.
[07:24:55] <helf|laptop> yeah, your mom agrees
[07:24:59] <NathanP> Who wouldn't want to be punched by Linux Torvalds?
[07:25:11] <NathanP> Hey, if my mom screws Linus, that will be even better.
[07:25:11] <helf|laptop> I'd like to punch him
[07:25:43] <NathanP> Now... RMS? God no.
[07:25:47] <NathanP> I'd like to punch him.
[07:25:52] <helf|laptop> in the nuts
[07:25:57] <NathanP> He has none, remember?
[07:26:02] <helf|laptop> oh, right
[07:26:15] <NathanP> He decided to show his freedom of free action by castrating himself in the Summer of '98.
[07:26:20] <Devine> Linus is a bastard (says so himself) but RMS is mostly just eccentric.
[07:26:32] <helf|laptop> RMS goes way beyong eccentric
[07:26:35] <helf|laptop> beyond
[07:26:53] <NathanP> Linus is a guy who bad mouths people (Interface Nazies: see Gnome) but you can still appreciate the guy.
[07:27:03] <NathanP> RMS is an all-around FOSS troll.
[07:27:18] <jmayfield_> rms is funny. i like him
[07:27:20] <helf|laptop> It wouldbe nice if they would give the kernel an ABI that stays the same for more than a minor point release or two
[07:27:27] <Devine> jmayfield_: thats what I think
[07:27:50] <helf|laptop> yea,h he can be :P
[07:27:52] <Devine> Linus is a lovable bastard that many people would like to punch in the face.
[07:27:54] <helf|laptop> I still want to punch him, tho
[07:28:05] <jmayfield_> and i admire his stick-to-it-iveness when it comes to his ideals
[07:28:17] <helf|laptop> jmayfield, however misguided they may be :P
[07:28:18] <Devine> yeah
[07:28:36] <jmayfield_> helf|laptop, except for that i mostly agree with him
[07:28:39] <helf|laptop> Devine, I love how linus called the windows hate a "sickness" :)
[07:28:42] <jmayfield_> heh
[07:28:52] <helf|laptop> jmayfield, :P
[07:28:56] *** VinDuv has joined #haiku
[07:29:07] <NathanP> It is, though.
[07:29:07] <helf|laptop> he does go freaking overboard with it, tho
[07:29:14] <helf|laptop> NathanP, i know
[07:29:19] <NathanP> It is, though.
[07:29:21] <Devine> helf|laptop: I'm sick then, but I don' try to infect other people.
[07:29:24] <helf|laptop> I'm just happy to hear the head guy say it
[07:29:37] <helf|laptop> Devine, :)
[07:29:42] <helf|laptop> I hate it at times
[07:29:53] <helf|laptop> but mostly when having to fix peoples machines. it rarely ever messes up for me
[07:29:57] <Devine> I can live with it when a full screen game covers it up.
[07:30:04] <helf|laptop> heh
[07:30:12] <NathanP> My Windows installs run in "layers"
[07:30:14] <Devine> But when I can see it poking out I almost get physically sick.
[07:30:17] * helf|laptop rarely has anything glitch up
[07:30:21] <helf|laptop> Devine, thats sad
[07:30:24] <NathanP> We have the OS > Security software > Sandbox > Software layers.
[07:30:31] <NathanP> Nothing actually touches the OS.
[07:30:37] <NathanP> Keeps it secure and clean. :)
[07:30:44] <NathanP> Yeah, I'm crazy.
[07:30:59] <helf|laptop> unless you are a complete moron, an XP install can be kept clean without issue :)
[07:31:00] <Devine> NathanP: I have thought about installing everything in Windows via Sanboxie.
[07:31:10] <Devine> helf|laptop: No it can't.
[07:31:15] <helf|laptop> yeah, it can
[07:31:21] <Devine> na.
[07:31:24] <helf|laptop> yep
[07:31:26] <NathanP> No, because it's installing Windows! :P
[07:31:26] <Devine> na
[07:31:36] * helf|laptop has never had a virus on a personal machine
[07:31:38] * NathanP plays a cheap drum.
[07:31:50] <Devine> helf|laptop: You have never had antivirus to tell you that you had a virus.
[07:31:52] <Devine> lol
[07:31:59] <helf|laptop> yes i have
[07:32:02] <NathanP> I had OneCare...
[07:32:04] <helf|laptop> ill run on on occasion
[07:32:05] <NathanP> It is the best!
[07:32:20] <Devine> lol
[07:32:53] <Devine> Apparently MS's new AV isn't bad. It holds its own against other products.
[07:33:12] <Devine> But again, I don't have Windows so I don't have to care.
[07:34:19] <helf|laptop> cool
[07:38:59] <helf|laptop> I do love how the people that don't use windows are the most vocal ones when it comes to bashing it
[07:39:23] <NathanP> It's like praising Amiga and you never ran it?
[07:39:31] <NathanP> Crap, I described half the Amiga community there, didn't I?
[07:39:36] <helf|laptop> hehe
[07:40:02] <helf|laptop> i liked the hardwares feature set and ran the OS in Amiga Forever :P
[07:40:16] <NathanP> Amiga Forever is the only way I run Amiga these days.
[07:40:17] <jmayfield_> you have to imagine how insulting it was as an amiga user to be plopped infront of win3.1
[07:40:23] <NathanP> The Sam boards alone are mad expensive.
[07:40:28] <helf|laptop> jmayfield, i bet that was awful
[07:40:44] <helf|laptop> jmayfield, hell, being a riscos user plopped in front of windows
[07:41:02] <NathanP> Hell, being a Windows user ploped in front of RiscOS. :p
[07:41:10] <helf|laptop> true :D
[07:41:26] <helf|laptop> i still dont see why any amiga user would have moved to a normal pc and windows 3.x or 9.x
[07:41:32] <helf|laptop> *9x
[07:41:36] <NathanP> Let's face it: Those who are born and raised on one platform can easily become ignorant to other OS's and architectures.
[07:41:42] <helf|laptop> yeah
[07:41:52] <NathanP> I was born and raised by myself when it came to tech.
[07:41:56] <helf|laptop> thats why im an equal opportunity hardware/os lover
[07:41:58] <NathanP> I experimented with everything.
[07:42:05] <helf|laptop> me too
[07:42:10] <helf|laptop> for the longest time i was a huge OS whore
[07:42:22] <NathanP> I strive to run something different.
[07:42:29] <Devine> helf|laptop: I have used windows (quite a lot) and I do use it day to day at work, and I support it day to day and so all I ever see is Windows installs falling to pieces.
[07:42:34] <helf|laptop> before i tossed out everything, i probably had 50 floppies with different OSes on them and a bajillion CDs with everything possible on them

[07:43:16] <helf|laptop> I have no fucking clue how they do it
[07:43:25] <NathanP> When Haiku comes out to R1, we need to launch an OEM company for Haiku machines.
[07:43:30] <helf|laptop> my last windows 2000 install was over 7 years old before I got rid of it

[07:45:25] <helf|laptop> OmniMancer, the beos UI fails for small touch screens
[07:45:27] <Devine> OmniMancer: They can't get Linux to run on the iPhone ebcause of locked hardware. N900 yes.
[07:45:30] <helf|laptop> NathanP, yes
[07:45:44] <NathanP> helf|laptop, NEVER upgrade to a new Ubuntu revision from the previous one.
[07:45:49] <NathanP> Always do a fresh install.
[07:45:50] <helf|laptop> I've noticed :P
[07:45:56] <helf|laptop> I never do that, usually
[07:45:58] <Devine> Always clean installs, especially on Ubuntu.
[07:46:00] <helf|laptop> but i figured what the hell
[07:46:09] <NathanP> Mandriva is alright.
[07:46:17] <NathanP> Never had a problem with their upgrades.
[07:46:25] <Devine> 10 to 11 went well forme.
[07:46:34] <Devine> I suspect 11 to 12 will be ok too.
[07:46:40] <helf|laptop> why would you want linux on the iPhone, anyways?
[07:46:50] <NathanP> I did a 2009.1 to 2010.0 and it was completely smooth.
[07:46:55] <NathanP> No issues at all.
[07:47:09] <jmayfield_> i want linux on an iphone
[07:47:14] <helf|laptop> i keep noticing little things that arent working right
[07:47:17] <NathanP> If we can have Linux on a bread toaster, why not an expensive paper weight, helf|laptop!?
[07:47:20] <helf|laptop> like my weather applet now wont update the temp
[07:47:25] *** mmadia has quit IRC
[07:47:53] <helf|laptop> jmayfield, why? which interface would you use? run android on it?
[07:48:05] <helf|laptop> and sell your soul to both apple AND google!
[07:48:07] <helf|laptop> woo hoo
[07:48:22] <Devine> Maemo seems to rock.
[07:48:24] <NathanP> I'd sell my soul to Google.
[07:48:29] <NathanP> They'd do good with it.
[07:48:33] <helf|laptop> hahah
[07:48:35] <helf|laptop> yeah right
[07:48:35] <helf|laptop> :P
[07:48:42] <NathanP> Better than Apple would.
[07:48:46] <helf|laptop> probably
[07:48:48] <NathanP> They'd sodomize me with a spoon.
[07:48:52] <OmniMancer> well you have to ask yourself
[07:48:53] <jmayfield_> helf|laptop, dunno..but if i had an iphone, i'd probably fiddle with it for a couple hours then wish it had some other os on it and not touch it much afterwards
[07:49:00] <OmniMancer> how much good can a company that buys souls do?
[07:49:01] <helf|laptop> jmayfield, yeah, me too
[07:49:09] <helf|laptop> jmayfield, ive played with my friends... didnt see its appeal
[07:49:14] <NathanP> OmniMancer, it's a company of lawyers.
[07:49:18] <Devine> NathanP: They would like to do good with it, but in their hands they would only do great and terrible things. You must give your soul to the hobbit!
[07:49:21] <NathanP> We all know they work with the Devil at that.
[07:49:31] <jmayfield_> i have a blackberry.. was cheap, works well for what i need
[07:49:34] <OmniMancer> :P
[07:49:39] <helf|laptop> ive GOT to get a new phone
[07:49:45] <NathanP> Devine, screw the Hobbit. AT&T sucked and you know it!
[07:49:51] <helf|laptop> im tempted to buy a cheap one that has a qwerty keypad
[07:50:01] <Devine> I have a n96 - worst phone ever. Give me a $50 phone any day over the n96.
[07:50:08] <helf|laptop> i havbe a treo 800w
[07:50:11] <NathanP> I'm considering the Droid.
[07:50:16] <helf|laptop> and its turned into the flakiest piece of shit
[07:50:17] <jmayfield_> phone, exchange, gps+google maps, occasional web
[07:50:20] <quietdev> oh wow treo?
[07:50:25] <NathanP> I was considering the Treo, but I never buy them.
[07:50:35] <helf|laptop> ive had a treo 600 and a treo 650p before it
[07:50:35] <NathanP> Ever year I say "I'll get a Treo" I never do.
[07:50:38] <helf|laptop> and they all worked well
[07:50:38] <NathanP> Not joking, either.
[07:50:53] <helf|laptop> the 800w is a piece of shit
[07:51:11] <NathanP> 600 series was good, I hear.
[07:51:12] <helf|laptop> i think my next phone wont be a smart phone
[07:51:15] <Devine> helf|laptop: We have the same phone problem, except my n96 is possibly even flakier.
[07:51:20] <helf|laptop> itll be something with awesome battery life and can text
[07:51:28] <NathanP> I don't get the Pre because those commercials with that girl who looks like the kid from Home Alone scares me.
[07:51:37] <Devine> helf|laptop: I'm put off smart phones too except the n900 is so damn cool.
[07:51:38] <helf|laptop> Devine, there are times where i have to reset my phone two or three times in a row before the radio will get out of a weird state
[07:51:54] <helf|laptop> NathanP, i dunno.. she i kinda creepily hot :P
[07:51:57] <helf|laptop> *is
[07:51:58] <Devine> Wow your radio works at all?
[07:52:03] <NathanP> I don't get the iPhone because AT&T in my area is crap.
[07:52:05] <helf|laptop> lol Devine
[07:52:30] <helf|laptop> I hate all these devices that keep coming out that try to do everything and suck at it all
[07:52:44] <NathanP> What happened to AmigaAnywhere?
[07:52:53] <NathanP> Oh, yea... Amiga...
[07:53:00] * helf|laptop is going to start carrying a camera, normal phone, and his DS with him everywhere
[07:53:02] <helf|laptop> fuck all in ones
[07:53:11] <NathanP> You have a DS?
[07:53:14] <NathanP> I had two.
[07:53:15] <helf|laptop> I love my DS
[07:53:23] <NathanP> First one I blended up to see if it would blend.
[07:53:28] <helf|laptop> i also have an R4DS
[07:53:33] <helf|laptop> and 100GB of DS ROMs
[07:53:36] <NathanP> Then I called Nintendo and asked for a new one, saying it accidently fell in a blender.
[07:53:41] <NathanP> I got a new one with a care kit, too.
[07:53:47] <NathanP> Then I proceeded to run it over.
[07:53:51] <NathanP> I love technology.
[07:54:28] <NathanP> (I was trying to see how far Nintendo would go with support. :p )
[07:54:44] <NathanP> Did I mention the first one was also the Last one in stock at the first day of launch.
[07:54:53] <helf|laptop> they just recently stopped repairing NES machines due to part depletion
[07:54:55] <NathanP> There were so many little kids behind me wanting one.
[07:54:57] <NathanP> Muahahahaa.
[07:55:08] <NathanP> Yeah, Nintendo has great part support.
[07:55:22] <helf|laptop> its amazing
[07:55:34] *** rbi has joined #haiku
[07:55:39] <NathanP> Who else supports one of their first game system still?
[07:55:41] <helf|laptop> i guess after they ran out of parts, they fired their one NES repair technician :P
[07:56:06] <NathanP> No, he went to VirtualBoy, helf|laptop.
[07:56:09] <NathanP> He repairs allot of them.
[07:56:10] <helf|laptop> ha
[07:56:17] <NathanP> People who get decieved by the cheap 3D.
[07:56:34] <helf|laptop> VirtualBoy : The toy so totally rad it'll make you go blind
[07:56:39] <NathanP> I should add, the VB was an amazing concept at the time.
[07:56:44] <NathanP> Just... Badle executed?
[07:56:52] <NathanP> It gave people seizures.
[07:56:56] <helf|laptop> Amazing at giving you migraines :P
[07:56:58] <NathanP> Allot of Nintendo things do that.
[07:57:06] <NathanP> Pokemon episodes did, too.

[07:58:11] <helf|laptop> it left a dent in the drywall

[07:58:41] <helf|laptop> also, don't get me started on my drywall hatred :P
[07:58:45] <NathanP> I remember the iSight or whatever for the PS2.
[07:58:50] <NathanP> Man, that was allot of fun.
[07:58:59] <helf|laptop> eye something
[07:59:12] <helf|laptop> iSight is the apple webcam iirc
[07:59:14] <NathanP> I remember the window washing game.
[07:59:23] <NathanP> I'd just take a towl and wipe my TV screen.

[16:45:34] <zizban> besides the built in one?
[16:45:51] <haiku> audacity?!
[16:46:03] <haiku> is it ported
[16:46:10] <aldeck> BeAE
[16:46:19] <StreaK|ON> Mr Sunshine, a russian company was interested in adding a haikuOS to its catalogue [ and sell it binded with laptops ] few month ago [ it was written in freelist somewhere ]
[16:46:40] <zizban> okmay, lemme check those
[16:46:50] <zizban> I have to record something for our radio station
[16:47:16] <haiku> so far, I have been unable to run BeOS apps or those ported to Haiku itself.
[16:47:19] <MrSunshine> StreaK|ON, i mean i need a computer that i can instal haiku on .. not a brand new computer :P
[16:47:41] <haiku> I wanted VLC, but it would not run
[16:47:49] <zizban> VLC runs
[16:47:57] *** Al2O3 has quit IRC
[16:47:57] <zizban> use the R5 version
[16:47:57] <haiku> not on my VM
[16:48:10] <zizban> pfft, real men run on real hardware
[16:48:32] <zizban> I am running Haiku on a Dell Inspiron I got on ebay for $300
[16:48:44] <haiku> I installed the Alpha 1 and then all of the gcc2 hybrid nightly builds, but no joy
[16:49:04] <haiku> none of the apps would work
[16:49:11] <StreaK|ON> haiku, some time ago i've started a bigger project to sort out every app from beos that its working on haiku. I'll release it as [very] big package
[16:49:42] <StreaK|ON> maybe in mid december
[16:49:49] <zizban> that'd be great
[16:50:13] <StreaK|ON> already have sorted about 6gb of data
[16:50:15] <StreaK|ON> :)
[16:50:34] <StreaK|ON> maybe half of it works on haiku :)
[16:50:37] <mmadia> StreaK|ON : are you logging this data as a spreadsheet or anything?
[16:50:40] <haiku> some of these apps are listed in http://haiku-files.org/files/optional-packages/
[16:50:48] <StreaK|ON> no, sorting in folders
[16:50:56] <mmadia> the non-working software would be of most use to the developers.
[16:51:00] <StreaK|ON> similar to haikuware folders
[16:51:22] <StreaK|ON> non working apps are put in simple [ not-workin ] directory
[16:51:35] <StreaK|ON> and working ones are sorted in folders
[16:51:55] <umccullough> i'd like to mirror that someday ;)
[16:52:01] <StreaK|ON> unfortunately im not collecting drivers [ because i cant test it ]
[16:52:04] <MrSunshine> ive got 3 mobos laying around, and everything for them .. but NONE of them will start :/
[16:52:18] <MrSunshine> they worked when i put them to sleep a long time ago
[16:52:35] <umccullough> probably bad caps
[16:52:40] <MrSunshine> aye
[16:52:43] <MrSunshine> and it sucks
[16:52:47] <MrSunshine> as its good mobos
[16:52:51] <MrSunshine> and cpus
[16:53:15] <umccullough> i've got an old Mac LCIII that has bad caps - one day i tried to fire it up and blackness
[16:53:23] <umccullough> looked at the mobo and the caps leaked out everywhere
[16:53:32] <MrSunshine> umccullough, no caps leaking tho
[16:53:37] <haiku> Why don't the device makers get together and decide to embedd the drivers in a flash chip on the device itself, easily accessable by the bios, and the OS?
[16:53:49] <haiku> a universal driver
[16:54:07] <umccullough> heh, universal driver initiatives have mostly all failed
[16:54:19] <umccullough> and most of the time, they require recompile per OS
[16:54:35] <drano> haiku: that is a completely impractical solution
[16:54:37] <haiku> all the os needs is a module to interface with the driver object
[16:54:37] <StreaK|ON> btw, if anyone would like to help with this archive i'would be gratefull .. looking for archives/zip's that are dead on bebits.com
[16:54:43] <haiku> sounds simple though
[16:54:47] <drano> it isn't
[16:55:13] <drano> the driver models for various operating systems differ substantially
[16:55:15] <umccullough> drano, there are things like VESA, after all - and look how great that is, performance sucks
[16:55:32] <umccullough> most "simplified" models like that end up sucking
[16:55:38] <drano> and reducing all of them to a common interface would water them all down
[16:55:49] <haiku> have a different interpreter module for every OS, but keep the driver the same.
[16:55:57] <umccullough> you lose specialized high performance functionality
[16:55:58] <drano> that doesn't make any sense
[16:56:29] <drano> it would only make sense for things that have common functionality across all platforms
[16:56:33] <drano> like, say... usb hard drives
[16:56:52] <drano> but since it's already common, it's already implemented everywhere, and there's no need for drivers in the first place
[16:56:56] <haiku> you are right there
[16:56:57] <umccullough> and even then, a custom feature like special encryption supported by the drive would still require a custom driver
[16:57:27] <umccullough> so, once you leave the "mass storage" feature list, you end up with custom drives :(
[16:57:28] <umccullough> drivers
[16:58:02] <umccullough> it's a free market - device makers innovate (supposedly) and they have to write custom drivers to support their devices
[16:58:18] <umccullough> consumers buy it cuz it's "the new thing"
[16:58:42] <haiku> well, Linux kernel has a great hardware support, why not port the drivers to Haiku?
[16:59:16] <haiku> by looking at the code, you can tell how to make a native driver
[16:59:41] <adamk_> The license is incompatible.
[16:59:52] <adamk_> However, FreeBSD supports probably 99% of the same hardware.
[17:00:09] <haiku> perhaps not port, but rewrite based on the Linux driver
[17:00:32] <adamk_> Why do that if you can actually port the FreeBSD driver?
[17:00:42] <haiku> the GPL is not compatible with Haiku's license?
[17:01:06] <aldeck> haiku: that's what's done already
[17:01:37] <aldeck> especially for special workaround with certain devices
[17:02:05] <haiku> FreeBSD is pretty cool
[17:02:22] <haiku> but hard to install
[17:02:27] <haiku> lol
[17:02:39] <surrounder> not really :P

[19:58:22] <AlienSoldier> JonathanThompson when they blow thy are faster, but when they suck, well, they suck :)
[19:58:41] <helf> like your mom
[19:58:45] * helf giggles
[19:58:53] <JonathanThompson> Consider, though, AlienSoldier: chances are slim you'll be blowing dry leaves in this area during the fall ;)
[19:59:17] <JonathanThompson> I can't remember the last day we went without rain.
[19:59:42] <JonathanThompson> (Tis the season to be raining... fa la la la la, la la la la)
[20:00:07] <helf> we have a dry season and a rainy season here
[20:00:19] <Advant_> JonathanThompson: blower much faster than raking :)
[20:00:34] <helf> Advant_, electric leaf blowers = best way to blow out computers
[20:00:35] <leszek> ZevenOS 2.0 is ready, if someone wants to help seeding here is the torrent: http://www.zevenos.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/ZevenOS-20.torrent, official announcement is next week
[20:00:42] * JonathanThompson isn't convinced that's true with wet leaves
[20:00:51] <helf> leszek, what is that?
[20:01:03] <AlienSoldier> they need to be completley dry
[20:01:09] <leszek> http://www.zevenos.com
[20:01:15] <JonathanThompson> Good luck with that in the Seattle area, AlienSoldier :P
[20:01:19] <Advant_> JonathanThompson: not even worth raking wet leaves
[20:01:24] <Advant_> need to let stuff dry out
[20:01:30] <leszek> linux distro with the touch of beos
[20:01:35] *** kitallis has quit IRC
[20:01:49] <AlienSoldier> JonathanThompson, then she just have to strap a big hair dryer on top of the blower :)
[20:01:53] <JonathanThompson> Well, that's a funny thought, Advant_ : if you wait for them to dry out, it'll be summer again in this area before that happens :P
[20:02:07] <Advant_> JonathanThompson: where you at Thailand :P
[20:02:11] <JonathanThompson> That's how it is here.
[20:02:19] <helf> well that is kinda neat in a weird way
[20:02:19] <JonathanThompson> Seattle area, if you're paying attention :P
[20:02:21] <AlienSoldier> anyway, i thiunk leave ae better on the ground
[20:02:28] <Advant_> nah just woke up
[20:02:49] <JonathanThompson> It doesn't always rain heavily, but it's an unusual day with no rain.
[20:02:54] <JonathanThompson> (During the fall/winter)
[20:02:59] <Advant_> like someone is constantly spitting on you? :)
[20:03:02] <helf> leszek, downloading it. ill seed it from work
[20:03:08] <JonathanThompson> That's one way to express it :D
[20:03:32] <JonathanThompson> Though in the past couple of weeks, it's been heavier than that a lot of the time.
[20:03:34] <Advant_> I've yet to see/hear thunder and lightning in NZ
[20:03:44] <helf> wow
[20:03:47] <helf> i would miss that
[20:03:47] <leszek> helf: nice ;)
[20:03:50] <helf> i adore thunderstorms
[20:04:00] <JonathanThompson> I've heard thunder and seen lightning in the past week or two a couple times or so, and that's rare for this area, actually.
[20:04:13] <JonathanThompson> How long have you been in NZ, Advant_ ?
[20:04:21] <Advant_> 11months now
[20:04:38] <Advant_> helf, yeah makes rain worth it, but without that you are just wet now
[20:04:52] <JonathanThompson> There's one thing I've seen here far more frequently than in Michigan or Indiana (I grew up in Michigan) and that's rainbows.
[20:05:06] <helf> Advant_, liking NZ? its freaking gorgeous country
[20:05:18] <JonathanThompson> I suppose it fits, if you know the leanings of a lot of the outspoken people in the area ;)
[20:05:51] <Advant_> helf: food, food is not as good. I'm skinner than I'v'e been in a long time. All beef is grass fed, not much fast food options
[20:06:15] <CIA-69> bonefish * r34010 /haiku/trunk/ (7 files in 4 dirs):

[20:06:15] <CIA-69> utimensat(), and futimens().
[20:06:40] <JonathanThompson> Advant_: that's a problem, how? :P
[20:06:56] <Advant_> meat tastes gamey
[20:07:04] <Advant_> like eatting venison
[20:07:08] <AlienSoldier> JonathanThompson looked at google Go language? i am not sold so far on it
[20:07:13] * JonathanThompson hasn't had venison in a long while
[20:07:29] <JonathanThompson> I've read some of the articles on it, but not really investigated it.
[20:08:00] <JonathanThompson> I already have too many other languages I need to try to get competence in before I commit myself to a Google-specific monstrosity.

[20:54:09] <expensivelesbian> it goes off to connect, then times out
[20:54:13] <luroh> oh
[20:54:36] <mmadia> have you tried a static ip?
[20:54:55] <expensivelesbian> tried, but tbh, not really sure what the settings should be
[20:56:00] <mmadia> in Preferences-->Network, 192.168.1.102 should work w/most routers.
[20:56:17] <luroh> ipro1000 mt desktop <-- i think that's the one

[21:01:17] <expensivelesbian> I'm about to reinstall to a new HD, so I have a partition put to one side to do this without recourse to VMs. Hopefully more success there
[21:02:01] <luroh> hopefully so. i'll build and check anyway
[21:02:14] <luroh> it used to work at some point, i think
[21:06:31] <MYOB> helf ?

[21:20:30] <Captain_Pike> After I updated VirtualBox yesterday, I was no longer able to boot the vm Haiku HDD images downloaded from the Haiku site. However, booting the cd images works. Also, after installing to a virtual hdd from the iso, the virtual hdd does boot.

[21:23:23] <JonathanThompson> I know someone will be very happy to see bash 4,0 get added :P
[21:23:27] <JonathanThompson> 4.0
[21:23:28] <mmu_man> I should really svn add zsh :p
[21:24:13] <luroh> Captain_Pike, try the following command, it worked here: VBoxManage convertfromraw -format VDI haiku.image haiku.vdi
[21:24:50] <luroh> could be the latest vbox acting up, as opposed to an actual regression in haiku

[22:26:14] <NathanP> I thought that void if removed part was from the SVN feed for a moment.
[22:26:19] <NathanP> I was about to say...
[22:26:24] <pulkomandy> I can order on the US website as I have some money left on my summer of code card, but the US site won't let me enter my french address
[22:27:24] <NathanP> Why do you even want a Lenovo machine, may I ask?
[22:28:05] <pulkomandy> I want something solid, I bought a Dell 1 year ago and it's already falling apart
[22:28:12] <JonathanThompson> pulkomandy: sucks to be you.
[22:28:16] <MrSunshine> aljen, got no computer that can access SATA disks atm :/
[22:28:29] <pulkomandy> broken touchpad buttons, and keys leaving marks on the screen when I put it in my backpack
[22:28:32] <NathanP> I didn't know Lenovo's were solid.
[22:28:52] <pulkomandy> Thinkpad are made with a metal cover, not plastic like most others
[22:29:06] <NathanP> Aye, but it ain't the same as the old days.
[22:29:22] <pulkomandy> yes I know, unfortunately :(
[22:29:56] <NathanP> I should make my own laptop and have it's case be Styrofoam.
[22:30:02] <JonathanThompson> Ah, bummer: Dollhouse goes away after 13 episodes for the second season :(
[22:30:10] <HeTo> pulkomandy: keys will leave fingerprints on the screen even on Thinkpads
[22:30:15] <JonathanThompson> That will break, too, NathanP !

[22:31:04] <pulkomandy> HeTo, well then... let's remove the keyboard :D
[22:31:17] * JonathanThompson is glad NathanP doesn't design PCs
[22:31:33] <NathanP> You know Dell would hire me in an instant.
[22:31:34] <HeTo> pulkomandy: well my old Compaq laptop has a good solution for that, it pushes the keys down as you close the lid
[22:31:40] <NathanP> They need some inspiration.
[22:31:44] <JonathanThompson> Is that a nuclear reactor in a case you're carrying, or are you just happy to see me???

[22:35:18] <NathanP> What about the Next cube.
[22:35:29] <JonathanThompson> That's magnesium, isn't it?
[22:35:30] <NathanP> It had Magnesium, if I recalled.
[22:35:48] <NathanP> Yes, it's a surface no one cares about until Job mentions it.
[22:35:54] <NathanP> "Hey, want a magnesium case?"
[22:35:58] <NathanP> "What the hell is that?"
[22:36:10] <NathanP> "Hey, Steve Jobs unvield a new magnesium case!"
[22:36:14] * JonathanThompson wonders why magnesium was chosen
[22:36:16] <pulkomandy> NathanP, thinkpad are made with magnesium too
[22:36:18] <NathanP> "Holy, crap! We gotta' get one!"
[22:36:22] <pulkomandy> but now it's only the bottom part
