| 09:35.38 | Ch0Hag | Is gdm likely to get upset if I rename a user? |
| 09:35.56 | antiphase | Why would it? |
| 09:36.22 | antiphase | Usernames are simply conveniences for us stupid humans |
| 09:36.29 | Ch0Hag | I know. |
| 09:36.46 | Ch0Hag | But since doing it, this user is not part of any of the groups it was under the previous name. |
| 09:36.58 | Ch0Hag | And I can't think of any reason why so I'm clutching at straws. |
| 09:37.00 | antiphase | Did you edit the groups file? |
| 09:37.15 | Ch0Hag | Eventually, yes, when I worked out that it was happening. |
| 09:37.21 | Ch0Hag | Well - it's all in LDAP. |
| 09:37.32 | antiphase | You'll have to log out and in again as well |
| 09:37.36 | Ch0Hag | Da. |
| 09:38.30 | Ch0Hag | When I log in, the user is only in 'users' but if I then su to the user it's in all the groups it should be. |
| 09:39.31 | antiphase | Sounds like you broke it |
| 09:39.52 | Ch0Hag | I know :( |
| 09:40.05 | antiphase | Serves you right for using LDAP, horrible nonsense that it is |
| 09:40.19 | Ch0Hag | Meh. |
| 09:40.24 | antiphase | I'd try re-adding the user to the groups, then give up and delete it and start again |
| 09:40.25 | Ch0Hag | It prods buttock and you know it. |

| 14:26.55 | antiphase | Xorg.log? |
| 14:27.27 | Ch0Hag | Indeed. It is about the worst windowing system available, except for all those other ones. |
| 14:27.40 | Ch0Hag | (With apologies to Winston Churchill) |
| 14:28.06 | clive-h | X is great |
| 14:28.16 | antiphase | It always worked for me too |
| 14:28.26 | antiphase | What else is there? |
| 14:28.26 | Ch0Hag | Interestingly my DRM has decided it doesn't want to play recently. |
| 14:28.29 | Ch0Hag | That's dull. |
| 14:28.40 | wethrin | X is....what Ch0Hag said |
| 14:28.53 | wethrin | I think NeWS was supposed to be superior |
| 14:31.12 | Ch0Hag | Why would I get no direct rendering? |
| 14:31.32 | Ch0Hag | The kernel module is loaded, X is using the correct driver and /dev/dri/card0 is writable. |
| 14:31.34 | wethrin | If you use DRI, then you lose the network transparency of X |
| 14:31.46 | Ch0Hag | Though the latter is irrelevant because root suffers too. |
| 14:32.05 | Ch0Hag | You only lose it for anything which uses DRI. |
| 14:33.50 | Ch0Hag | Is it possible the card got trapped in some unpleasant state last time Xorg's driver crashed? |
| 14:34.11 | Ch0Hag | I don't really want to have to reboot to fix it, especially as the main thing which uses DRI is the screensaver. |
| 14:34.33 | Ch0Hag | But it is annoying. |

| 18:23.17 | wethrin | Can I go home? |
| 18:23.19 | Ch0Hag | A good network filesystem for /home which isn't NFS? |
| 18:23.25 | wethrin | AFS? |
| 18:23.34 | wethrin | What other requirements do you have? |
| 18:23.39 | wethrin | Why can't you use NFS? |
| 18:23.58 | Ch0Hag | Because NFS sucks. |
| 18:24.08 | wethrin | Yes, but all network filesystems suck |
| 18:24.23 | Ch0Hag | Maybe, but which ones suck less than NFS? |
| 18:24.24 | wethrin | NFS just sucks mildly less for Unix-to-Unix mounting |
| 18:24.32 | Ch0Hag | Samba clearly isn't in it. |
| 18:24.38 | wethrin | Samba sucks less for Windows thingings |
| 18:24.42 | Ch0Hag | Coda doesn't seem to ever get any work done on it. |
| 18:24.57 | wethrin | (although I use it at home for a semi-permanent emergency mounting) |
| 18:25.23 | Ch0Hag | sshfs and the like seem much to ofar above the kernel layer. |
| 18:25.37 | wethrin | Yes, and would be Fucking Slow |
| 18:25.43 | Ch0Hag | Yes. |
| 18:26.01 | wethrin | In fact, about as fast as trying to run a marathon with your legs buried in asphalt |
| 18:26.06 | Ch0Hag | I really like the look of coda, actually, it just never seems to happen. |
| 18:26.30 | wethrin | NFS can be troublesome between different Unix systems |
| 18:26.53 | wethrin | I've got Linux <-> Linux to play, and BSD <-> BSD, but had troubles with BSD <-> Linux |
| 18:27.10 | Ch0Hag | Yeah that doesn't help if I want to start playing with other *nix. |
| 18:27.22 | Ch0Hag | And Hurd, which probably doesn't count as being in the same field. |
| 18:27.26 | wethrin | Unless you use a Solaris NFS server :) |
| 18:27.26 | Ch0Hag | Oh and OSX. |
| 18:27.47 | wethrin | OSX works nicely with Samba |
| 18:27.50 | Ch0Hag | I turn the mac on every now and then to check that it still works. |
| 18:28.01 | wethrin | TBH, Samba is likely to be the easiest to set up |
| 18:28.43 | Ch0Hag | Aye. Especially considering it already is. |
| 18:28.47 | Ch0Hag | It's also the gayest though. |
| 18:31.30 | Ch0Hag | And as there's only one Windows machine on the network which doesn't need /home much anyway, I'd rather use something which does Unix better. |
| 18:36.42 | wethrin | You're probably stuck with NFS, then |
| 18:38.39 | Ch0Hag | That sucks. |

| 19:48.24 | Ch0Hag | Don't mind morsing. |
| 19:48.27 | Ch0Hag | He's always like this. |
| 20:04.58 | Ch0Hag | Interesting. Emacs used to have C-M-delete and C-M-backspace bound. |
| 20:05.04 | Ch0Hag | Kill either Windows or X. |
| 20:06.27 | goibhniu | polyunix: morsing loves you |
| 20:07.10 | polyunix | goibhniu: i hope it wont hurt him |
| 20:08.02 | goibhniu | ahh ... he'll survive ... he usually does |
| 20:08.04 | Ch0Hag | "** `undo-only' does an undo which does not redo any previous undo." |
| 20:08.26 | goibhniu | polyunix: new to linux/london or just gllug? |
| 20:08.45 | Ch0Hag | Or maybe you're new to life? |
| 20:08.49 | Ch0Hag | Are you a newly born? |
| 20:08.52 | polyunix | i'm new in the linux world |
| 20:09.27 | polyunix | but not here in London |
| 20:10.14 | polyunix | going to visit Lonix party on Saturday |
| 20:11.23 | polyunix | I've been Debian user for year now but still feel pretty fresh at it. |
| 20:12.38 | polyunix | btw i speak spinglish, english is not my native tong so sorry for slow responds. |
| 20:13.16 | Ch0Hag | queh? |
| 20:13.26 | Ch0Hag | (badum tish) |
| 20:23.00 | goibhniu | polyunix: I wouldn't worry about it, english is a crap language anyway |
| 20:23.04 | goibhniu | ~seen failure |
| 20:23.09 | ibot | failure <n=failure@host86-143-157-105.range86-143.btcentralplus.com> was last seen on IRC in channel #gllug, 62d 5h 5m 28s ago, saying: 'yes, i like the mix too'. |
| 20:23.16 | goibhniu | :( |
| 20:23.50 | polyunix | goibhniu: not just english. all of them. |
| 20:24.43 | polyunix | body language's not included. |
| 20:26.24 | polyunix | goibhniu: so how is linux doing nowadays? |
| 20:27.30 | goibhniu | sexier than ever |
| 20:27.41 | goibhniu | are you into the whole 3d desktop stuff? |
| 20:29.46 | Ch0Hag | That seems to be the in thing. |
| 20:30.04 | Ch0Hag | But you need to get a good graphics card and sell your soul to the devil. |
| 20:30.32 | polyunix | i have 3ddesktop prog. but never managed to start beryl on my crap laptop. ATI -drv - too-bad :( |
| 20:31.30 | goibhniu | my soul has indeed been licenced to dick_turpin but I believe it works for free spirits with the intel gpu too |
| 20:31.45 | goibhniu | ahh ... ati ... bad luck |
| 20:32.22 | goibhniu | dell is putting the pressure on them apparently |
| 20:32.25 | polyunix | too bad |
| 20:32.42 | goibhniu | it seems to be possible ... but lots of hassle |
| 20:33.12 | polyunix | glxinfo | grep direct |
| 20:33.13 | polyunix | direct rendering: Yes |
| 20:33.33 | polyunix | but no much point in it |
| 20:34.24 | polyunix | Penguin Racer doing very well though. but that's it |
| 20:35.19 | goibhniu | I don't really play games myself ... but I believe there are some good ones |
| 20:36.21 | goibhniu | tremulous maybe? |
| 20:37.02 | polyunix | Dell is pressing AMD for a better job. They might succeed one night. |
| 20:37.33 | goibhniu | yeah ... who'd have thought they'd be shipping linux systems |
| 20:37.50 | goibhniu | they're gonna start shipping over here soon too afaik |
| 20:38.18 | polyunix | goibhniu: the best game i have ever played was "Reunion" under DOS |
| 20:38.38 | goibhniu | never heard of it |
| 20:39.14 | polyunix | star strategy |
| 20:39.39 | polyunix | on 11 floppy!! |
| 20:41.09 | polyunix | http://www.abandonia.com/games/150/Reunion |
| 20:42.58 | polyunix | goibhniu: try it you'll like it, or not. |
| 20:43.38 | goibhniu | polyunix: I think I'd lose a lot and get depressed |
| 20:43.44 | goibhniu | looks nice though |
| 20:44.53 | polyunix | i never made it to the end. always been killed |
| 20:45.07 | polyunix | by aliens |
| 20:54.01 | Ch0Hag | Apparently you may not use iTunes to design nuclear weapons. |
| 20:54.10 | Ch0Hag | I didn't know that. Plans will have to change now. |
| 20:56.31 | *** join/#gllug catalyst (n=catalyst@allegro/user/angelchild) |
| 21:06.27 | polyunix | mouse is frozen. can i restart the mouse? |
| 21:06.51 | goibhniu | is it a usb mouse? |
| 21:07.04 | polyunix | yes |
| 21:07.18 | goibhniu | does plugging it out and back in again help? |
| 21:07.29 | polyunix | no |
| 21:07.41 | polyunix | touchpad |
| 21:08.09 | polyunix | dosbox killed it |
| 21:08.11 | goibhniu | oh ... my guess is you'd need to restart x |
| 21:08.27 | polyunix | see you then |
| 21:10.29 | *** join/#gllug polyunix (n=egor@87.127.26.43) |
| 21:11.03 | polyunix | ok. here i am again |
| 21:12.01 | polyunix | i tried to run reunion under dosbox and it killed all mice |
| 21:12.51 | goibhniu | :( |
| 21:13.45 | polyunix | but it starts nicely. with sound! |
| 21:14.26 | polyunix | i coudn't start it under winXP |
| 21:14.39 | goibhniu | you'll finish it .... some day |
| 21:14.50 | polyunix | unlikely |
| 21:16.07 | polyunix | if i finish it, it will lose its glamour. |
| 21:20.15 | polyunix | ok the same story again. sound doesn't like my mouse. so DOS! |
| 21:20.56 | polyunix | never mind i dont use it a lot anyway. |
