| 03:54:02 | Bakemono | it'll be running |
| 03:54:35 | CoolMan | is that how the boot graphics will be displayed? |
| 03:54:42 | Bakemono | not sure |

| 17:49:24 | caliminus | hi |
| 17:52:33 | caliminus | is the project going well |
| 18:04:00 | caliminus | is somebody awake |
| 18:05:37 | CoolMan | hey, i'm back |
| 18:05:45 | CoolMan | ru? |
| 18:06:32 | caliminus | hi CoolMan |
| 18:06:36 | CoolMan | hey |
| 18:06:42 | CoolMan | what's up? |
| 18:07:23 | caliminus | I am thinking about helping the project |
| 18:07:32 | CoolMan | what can you do? |
| 18:07:49 | caliminus | a lot of things |
| 18:08:02 | CoolMan | 3d modeling? programming? |
| 18:08:19 | CoolMan | game programming? |
| 18:08:32 | caliminus | hardware software and yes game programming |
| 18:08:41 | CoolMan | that's what we need |
| 18:08:50 | CoolMan | we need individual game devvers |
| 18:09:02 | CoolMan | so we can have some launch titles |
| 18:09:27 | CoolMan | i'm programming all of the non-OS software |
| 18:09:48 | caliminus | k good |
| 18:09:59 | CoolMan | you gonna do a game? |
| 18:10:04 | caliminus | how about a fighting game |
| 18:10:12 | CoolMan | that sounds sweet |
| 18:10:15 | CoolMan | but, |
| 18:10:17 | caliminus | like tekken 4 |
| 18:10:32 | CoolMan | we haven't come up with a good controller yet |
| 18:10:52 | CoolMan | well, check out the forums |
| 18:11:00 | CoolMan | the general forum |
| 18:11:14 | CoolMan | i posted about a controller possibility |
| 18:12:33 | caliminus | not5 bad |
| 18:12:45 | CoolMan | you know if it will work? |
| 18:13:07 | CoolMan | cause otherwise, i will have to buy it and find out if it will work |
| 18:13:35 | caliminus | I don't know |
| 18:13:45 | caliminus | I got a suggestion |
| 18:13:52 | CoolMan | yeah? |
| 18:14:23 | caliminus | choose a controller with 6 buttons in the front |
| 18:14:38 | CoolMan | ??? |
| 18:15:05 | CoolMan | dude, we are having enough trouble finding a controller that has analog that is supported |
| 18:15:25 | CoolMan | (that isn't microsoft of course) |
| 18:15:39 | caliminus | logitech |
| 18:15:58 | CoolMan | i couldn't verify that any of those would work |
| 18:16:57 | CoolMan | and it has to be a 'gamepad' instead of a 'joystick' |
| 18:17:09 | caliminus | http://www.logitech.com/cf/products/productoverview.cfm/76 |
| 18:17:45 | CoolMan | checking |
| 18:18:10 | CoolMan | and, you know this is supported by the kernal? |
| 18:18:58 | caliminus | not shure yet |
| 18:19:11 | caliminus | but I git 1 |
| 18:19:41 | CoolMan | yeah, i saw that |
| 18:19:54 | CoolMan | it would be my first pick if it's supported |
| 18:20:04 | CoolMan | but that's the thing |
| 18:20:11 | CoolMan | you gonna buy that? |
| 18:20:22 | caliminus | I got 1 |
| 18:20:28 | CoolMan | really? |
| 18:20:38 | caliminus | on my win$$$ box |
| 18:20:45 | CoolMan | you have one allready? |
| 18:20:54 | caliminus | yes |
| 18:21:02 | CoolMan | boot linux and try it out! |
| 18:21:02 | CoolMan | ;) |
| 18:21:19 | CoolMan | it's usb right? |
| 18:21:39 | caliminus | yes |
| 18:22:17 | caliminus | linux is not installed on my other box yet its not finished |
| 18:22:52 | caliminus | a box with no cpu is nothing |
| 18:23:04 | CoolMan | dual boot |
| 18:23:10 | caliminus | but tomorrow it will |
| 18:23:14 | CoolMan | oic |
| 18:23:23 | CoolMan | what distro are you going with? |
| 18:23:54 | caliminus | I don't know yet you got a suggestion |
| 18:24:01 | CoolMan | i use redhat |
| 18:24:07 | CoolMan | i like it alot |
| 18:24:19 | CoolMan | but i heard mandrake's good |
| 18:24:43 | CoolMan | you have any experience with *NIX? |
| 18:25:40 | caliminus | before I joined micro$$$ yes and I am happy that a kwit it |
| 18:25:56 | CoolMan | you worked for muckrosoft? |
| 18:26:01 | caliminus | I hate micro$$$ |
| 18:26:08 | caliminus | yes |
| 18:26:13 | CoolMan | owch |
| 18:26:17 | CoolMan | that hurts |
| 18:26:31 | CoolMan | what was your flavor of UNIX? |
| 18:26:47 | caliminus | debian and mandrake |
| 18:27:11 | CoolMan | one thing |
| 18:27:20 | CoolMan | avoid the "gcc 2.96" bug |
| 18:27:34 | CoolMan | it's a sad thing |
| 18:28:14 | CoolMan | if you use RedHat 7.2, |
| 18:28:22 | CoolMan | before you do ANYTHING |
| 18:28:36 | CoolMan | download gcc 2.95.3 |
| 18:28:55 | CoolMan | and install it over the top of the GCC that comes with RedHat |
| 18:29:20 | caliminus | its good to know I have seen enough bugs In 1 year |
| 18:29:26 | caliminus | I will do that |
| 18:29:35 | CoolMan | good |
| 18:29:43 | CoolMan | gcc 2.96 was evil |
| 18:29:59 | CoolMan | and the sad thing, is that every linux distro comes with it |
| 18:30:05 | CoolMan | (i think) |
| 18:30:17 | caliminus | what was the problem with it |
| 18:30:33 | CoolMan | it would do the weirdest stuff |
| 18:30:54 | CoolMan | somebody reported that it skipped some of their code without telling them |
| 18:30:59 | CoolMan | and it wouldn't work |
| 18:31:14 | CoolMan | it's not even an "official" version of gcc |
| 18:31:25 | caliminus | shit that's ...... |
| 18:31:39 | CoolMan | crap |
| 18:31:45 | CoolMan | say crap |
| 18:31:48 | caliminus | yep |
| 18:31:51 | caliminus | crap |
| 18:32:23 | CoolMan | gcc 2.96 was basically a "deeply patched" version of 2.95, |
| 18:32:40 | CoolMan | and they caused some probs trying to make other things better |
| 18:32:59 | caliminus | I know what you mean |
| 18:33:17 | caliminus | micropatch is the same too |
| 18:33:21 | CoolMan | yeah |
| 18:33:32 | CoolMan | what did you do for muckrosoft? |
| 18:34:09 | caliminus | tranlslation |
| 18:34:24 | caliminus | I speak french |
| 18:34:28 | CoolMan | human language translation? |
| 18:34:29 | CoolMan | oh |
| 18:34:31 | CoolMan | ic |
| 18:34:50 | CoolMan | C is my native language, then english. |
| 18:34:52 | CoolMan | ;) |
| 18:35:06 | caliminus | I prefer asm or c++ |
| 18:35:25 | CoolMan | well, really i do c++ |
| 18:35:35 | CoolMan | but no object oriented programming |
| 18:35:51 | CoolMan | object oriented programming was a work of the devil |
| 18:36:03 | caliminus | hey I got to go work In a boring place |
| 18:36:19 | caliminus | I have to go but tomorrow |
| 18:36:25 | CoolMan | right |
