| 01:09.55 | Cope | I was pissed off today; had to leave just as I was getting interested. |
| 01:10.07 | Leeds | hey highbury |
| 01:10.11 | Cope | Hi-ghbury. |
| 01:10.20 | highbury | man! this MandrakeMove bootable CD sucks bigtime! |
| 01:10.26 | Cope | lol |
| 01:11.05 | highbury | its so far behind knoppix |
| 01:11.12 | Cope | live slack cd kicks the shit out of knoppix. |
| 01:11.13 | new2unix | highbury, haha. burnt a copy the other day. youre not far from the truth there. lol |
| 01:11.14 | Cope | fwiw |
| 01:11.41 | new2unix | Leeds, fwiw which is obsolete |
| 01:11.58 | Leeds | new2unix: ? |
| 01:12.19 | highbury | ok, cope, I'll try it out, what's the url for an iso image |
| 01:18.10 | Cope | Well, have a look at: http://freshmeat.net/projects/slacklive/ |
| 01:19.04 | Leeds | Cope: I thought you meant the 4th CD from the official CD set |
| 01:19.36 | Cope | Leeds: I did... but I found this en passent. |
| 01:19.43 | Leeds | ah, okay :-) |
| 01:21.50 | Cope | highbury: I got my slack iso's using BitTorrent. |
| 01:23.47 | highbury | i have the two install cd images and 2 source cd images, but that doesn't sound as easy toget as knoppix |
| 01:23.56 | highbury | anyways bedtime |

| 01:24.11 | Cope | highbury: All 4 are available aiui |
| 01:26.52 | Cope | I always feel like an infidel! I always come back to Slackware in the end. |
| 01:27.11 | Leeds | I spent a while away... but I've been back home for a while now |
| 01:27.52 | Cope | I've been messing about with debian because a very good friend, and serious slack advocate has switched, so I promised I'd give it a month trial/ |
| 01:29.33 | Leeds | I can't bring myself to do it... |
| 01:29.43 | Leeds | anyway... time to head bedwards... |
| 01:30.02 | Cope | So far, my observations are that its easy to administer and keep up-to-date; I don't trust apt-get but if I learned the details of dpkg I might be less suspicious; and the fact that you can nick the autodetected stuff from knoppix is cool. |
| 01:30.39 | Cope | Night Leeds, sorry not to have spent any time with you today. |
| 01:30.44 | Cope | Next time. |
| 01:31.03 | Leeds | yeah, me too... |

| 16:04.51 | | extra, extra, read all about it, zmodem is This protocol has many error-correcting properties. It can detect if a bad block (of 1,024 bytes) has come through and ask to have it re-sent. If the transfer gets interrupted for any reason, it can resume from where it left off. It is slightly slower than Ymodem-G, but is much more reliable. |

| 22:05.03 | Cope | Just nothing |
| 22:05.41 | mozrat | Maybe if you went to the home page and navigated to the pictures. The link I sent you took you straight to the page. |

| 23:21.30 | Wethrin | Blah. |
| 23:22.22 | Cope | Hi Dan |
| 23:22.29 | Marios_ | Wethrin...have you installed Real on your Linux ? |
| 23:26.23 | Wethrin | Real what? |
| 23:26.25 | Wethrin | Realplayer? |
| 23:26.43 | Wethrin | I've installed it on an old Linux (Slackware 8.foo) |
| 23:27.05 | Wethrin | Nowadays I don't tend to use Linux. I'm mainly here for the social side :) |
| 23:28.50 | Marios_ | Wethrin << what OS do you use ? |
| 23:29.03 | Wethrin | MacOS X, of course :) |
| 23:30.12 | Marios_ | I see |
| 23:30.22 | Marios_ | ibook ? |
| 23:30.32 | Wethrin | Pah. PowerBook :) |
| 23:30.39 | Marios_ | hmm |
| 23:31.49 | Wethrin | Actually, I do have a set of Solaris9 for x86 CDs that I intend to install, when I've got a bit of time |
| 23:32.33 | *** mode/#gllug [+o highbury] by ChanServ |
| 23:32.39 | Cope | Wethrin: Grown out of it? |
| 23:33.23 | Wethrin | Out of what? Linux? :) |
| 23:33.51 | Wethrin | 'lo highbury - we know you're there :) |
| 23:34.01 | *** topic/#gllug by highbury -> Greater London LUG. Next meeting: Saturday 24th January, Next Pub Meet: Saturday 3rd January, Web Site: http://www.gllug.org.uk |
| 23:34.23 | highbury | hi folks |
| 23:35.23 | Marios_ | Hello highbury |
| 23:35.39 | highbury | when's the next unofficial one? |
| 23:35.44 | Cope | highbury: Depends what you want it to do, I suppose. |
| 23:35.49 | Wethrin | highbury: We haven't decided yet |
| 23:36.03 | Wethrin | Probably around 15th-ish, give or take a week |
| 23:36.37 | new2unix | Wethrin, isnt there one next Sunday? |
| 23:36.48 | highbury | cope: considering its substantially smaller, and only intended for mini cdrw's, I guess your right. But I did feel a bit cheated when I investigated further |
| 23:36.58 | Wethrin | new2unix: No, that's Dead Ringers. Not a Gllug meet |
| 23:37.18 | Wethrin | But Slackware crams lots of nice things into a small distro :) |
| 23:37.33 | new2unix | Wethrin, Oh, so there is a Deaderingers pub meet prior to the show? :D |
| 23:38.06 | Wethrin | Only between 6pm-ish and 7pm, at Television Centre |
| 23:38.19 | Cope | highbury: knoppix is awesome, but if you're looking for a stable, lean and powerful live cd, the slack one is great. |
| 23:38.55 | Cope | If, however, you want a load of cute apps, and a demo of loads of things linux can do, knoppix is great. |
| 23:39.05 | Cope | Night |
| 23:39.14 | highbury | whats' the point in having a half full cd? |
| 23:39.25 | Wethrin | You can make pretty patterns in the other half |
| 23:40.30 | Cope | highbury: slacklive is designed to go in a credit-card-sized disk. |
| 23:40.45 | highbury | what size cope? |
| 23:40.58 | Wethrin | g'night all |
| 23:42.23 | highbury | Wethrin, wait! |
| 23:43.15 | highbury | Do you know hoe to configure spamassassin with kmail? I found I had both installed in SUSE 9.0, but can't seem to get them to interoperate |
| 23:43.23 | new2unix | highbury, try knoppix-std if youre after a bootable CD with a security slant (think pentester), there is also Gnoppix (knoppix with Gnome) and "Adio" (yet another bootable CD for a niche market) |
| 23:44.11 | Cope | highbury: 8cm |
| 23:44.48 | highbury | cope: capacity? |
| 23:44.54 | new2unix | <PROTECTED> |
| 23:45.32 | Cope | highbury: Dunno :o) |
| 23:46.37 | Cope | highbury: Don't get me wrong, I'm not dissing knoppix, I think its great, but the slack one is really cool too. |
| 23:49.04 | highbury | see I've got an 85x57mm credit card cdr here, and it only holds 30Mb, so as I see it, slacklive can't be installed on credit card cd's |
| 23:49.38 | Cope | Ah, I see. |
| 23:49.39 | highbury | new2unix, do you have a url for knoppix-std ? |
| 23:50.15 | Cope | However, you could use slacklive to make your own 30MB live cd. |
| 23:50.23 | new2unix | http://www.knoppix-std.org/ |
| 23:52.23 | new2unix | i think http://www.lnx-bbc.org , which was one of the first credit-sized distros still manage to fit on 30MB discs |
| 23:55.26 | highbury | not correct! |
| 23:55.35 | highbury | bbc-2.1.iso is 50 Mb |
| 23:56.14 | highbury | lxcr-lbt-2_0.iso is 48Mb |
| 23:57.57 | Cope | 30MB sounds very small. |
| 23:58.00 | new2unix | bbc-STABLE-2003-10-27T20:26:20-0800.iso is 33Mb |
| 23:58.30 | new2unix | but that's an October release. |
| 23:59.49 | highbury | new2unix, browsing http://www.lnx-bbc.org/builds/ is strange that the size suddenly dropped |
