| 18:19.43 | skugg | or move? |

| 18:20.21 | JD | or equivelent |
| 18:20.22 | skugg | so, i cannot use it to determine how long ago a file was appended to? |
| 18:20.31 | skugg | how would i do that? |
| 18:20.32 | JD | use mtime |
| 18:20.46 | skugg | ah. |
| 18:20.50 | skugg | doh. |
| 18:20.54 | JD | atime is access |
| 18:21.01 | JD | ctime is change time of inode |
| 18:21.03 | skugg | yeah. i was silly... |

| 21:52.06 | stephanb | yeah, nice combination |
| 21:52.38 | new2unix | was it? |
| 21:52.52 | Jenson | yeh |
| 21:53.03 | new2unix | i remember talking to this girl called Stephanie |
| 21:53.37 | Jenson | i remember you asking if it mattered what you were gonna do in the toilet |
| 21:54.47 | new2unix | huh? oh. there was this woamn charging 10p to your the johm. so i simply asked if the price fluctuated based on the deeds. |
| 21:55.15 | Jenson | I'm not convinced that was what you were thinking |
| 21:55.18 | Jenson | but we wont go there |
| 21:55.21 | new2unix | damn. my keyboard is moving ever so slowly making me miss the keys |
| 21:55.45 | highbury | new2unix: bad acid again? |
| 21:57.31 | Jenson | dankolb: Shit, sorry, cant stay on MSN......certain ex I'm avoiding, little wanker |
| 21:57.46 | new2unix | ok. can we get the topic back to linux before somebody says something unspeakable. there might be potential clients reading this off the archive in a months time. |
| 21:58.00 | Jenson | Actually he was tall, but big wanker sounds dirty |
| 21:58.22 | new2unix | clients as in humans in suits not client-server thingie |
| 21:58.30 | Jenson | and we were never actually dating |
| 21:58.33 | Jenson | but other than that |
| 21:58.34 | Jenson | lol |
| 21:59.23 | highbury | I agree with new2unix can we get this back on-topic please |
| 21:59.35 | Jenson | dankolb: you gonna be at gllug on saturday? |
| 22:00.37 | JD | new2unix: do you know anything about virus checking we pages? |
| 22:02.43 | Jenson | new2unix: I dound another pic...only i cant work out if the guy is bl;ack or covered in coal dust lol |
| 22:02.56 | Jenson | or both |
| 22:03.15 | new2unix | of who? |
| 22:03.30 | Jenson | hedpe |
| 22:03.44 | new2unix | JD: i think Symantec have one |
| 22:04.06 | JD | I was hoping for something free |
| 22:04.19 | JD | and if it is the product I have seen they do nasty things to it |
| 22:04.21 | Clyphox | JD: it doesn't work for me btw.. |
| 22:04.32 | JD | what doesn;t? |
| 22:04.33 | Jenson | JD: When I was running Win my virus scanner used to pick them up nayway |
| 22:04.38 | Clyphox | JD: startx -- .xinitrc.alt :1 |
| 22:04.42 | Jenson | Really must reinstall it actually |
| 22:05.48 | JD | Clyphox: try startx -- -- ~/.xinitrc.alt :1 |
| 22:06.10 | Clyphox | nope |
| 22:08.13 | Clyphox | :-( |
| 22:09.38 | Clyphox | I gotta work out how startx modifies .Xauthority |
| 22:09.53 | JD | startx .xinitrc -- :1 |
| 22:11.36 | Clyphox | that works :-) |
| 22:11.51 | Clyphox | startx uses xauth |
| 22:12.26 | JD | man startx is a wonderful thing |
| 22:12.45 | JD | new can you flick between them using ctrl-alt-f1-9? |
| 22:13.29 | new2unix | huh? JD, was that for me? |
| 22:13.34 | Leeds | JD: particularly the bit which says "we don't expect anyone to use startx without customising it" :-) |
| 22:13.50 | Jenson | i use kdm |
| 22:14.09 | Jenson | a certian person who I'm not allowed to mentio according to gubbs, interoduced me to kdm |
| 22:14.36 | JD | Jenson: most people use a ?dm |
| 22:14.46 | Clyphox | gdm2 onz j00 |
| 22:14.48 | JD | unless yoiu want to do something funcky or are running a server |
| 22:14.50 | Leeds | even I use good old plain xdm :-) |
| 22:15.02 | Leeds | JD: there's always the old 'login and run startx' method... |
| 22:15.04 | Jenson | JD: yeh, but ubnless someone tewlls you about them you dont know about them |
| 22:15.09 | JD | I could never get wdm to work |
| 22:15.18 | Clyphox | likewise |
| 22:15.32 | JD | Jenson: sensible distributions automatically istall them for you |
| 22:15.52 | Jenson | JD: they were, but that desont mean I know about them |
| 22:15.56 | Jenson | Thats what boyfriends are for |
