| 00:00:05 | file | are you sure |
| 00:00:23 | scanline | not really. Actually, I'm copying these MP3s that just finished encoding over to gonkulator's home directory |
| 00:00:29 | file | exactly |
| 00:05:31 | file | scanline? |
| 00:08:27 | scanline | returns with food |
| 00:08:37 | scanline | mm.. 4th of july dinner: baked potato, corn, beans, and chicken nuggets |
| 00:12:03 | | rumour has it file is a happy Philips Nino/VTech Helio user |
| 00:12:03 | scanline | ibot: file? |
| 00:12:38 | | picobot is, like, your infobot that lives in #picogui or my evil twin |
| 00:12:38 | scanline | ibot: picobot? |
| 00:15:48 | prpplague | scanline: you not accept dcc files? |
| 00:16:08 | scanline | I think it auto-accepted it into a directory that didn't exist.. |
| 00:16:14 | scanline | try now |
| 00:16:45 | prpplague | scanline: ya going trough now, have a look, lol |
| 00:17:05 | scanline | haha.. cute! |
| 00:17:37 | prpplague | scanline: thanks we alot fun doing it |
| 00:18:00 | prpplague | scanline: we got to learn about motors and leds |
| 00:19:13 | prpplague | scanline: i'm afraid i've created a monster, he's gonna want something he can carry on a conversation with next....... |
| 00:19:26 | scanline | hehe |
| 00:19:42 | prpplague | plus the computer room is a mess |
| 00:20:16 | scanline | You probably could have carpeted a room with all the iron filings I had after doing my case mod |
| 00:21:03 | prpplague | scanline: hope i'm not gobblin up too much of your bandwidth dl'n that avi |
| 00:21:09 | prpplague | scanline: ya been there done that |
| 00:21:16 | scanline | don't worry about it |
| 00:21:41 | prpplague | scanline: its ok if your a not married, but if you got a ball-n-chain it can get ugly |
| 00:21:57 | scanline | hehe |
| 00:22:16 | scanline | I used to get in trouble with my parents when I'd make a big mess, but now I'm in the basement, outside their radar |
| 00:22:30 | scanline | wonders if slashdot will post his case mod... |
| 00:22:31 | prpplague | scanline: lol, good plan |
| 00:23:31 | scanline | If only the tuxscreen LCD were a little smaller it could be mounted in a few 5.25" bays :) |
| 00:24:43 | prpplague | scanline: lol, you'll like what i'm working on then |
| 00:25:07 | scanline | listens |
| 00:25:33 | slumpy | ok guys |
| 00:25:40 | slumpy | what the heck is tuxscreen? |
| 00:25:46 | prpplague | scanline: we are working a sa-1110 core board which contains the sa-1110, ram, flash, and a max chip for rs-232, |
| 00:25:50 | slumpy | like a PDA platform, except its a phone? |
| 00:25:55 | | tuxscreen is http://TuxScreen.net/ order at http://tuxscreen.net/wiki/view/Users/TimRiker and http://tuxscreen.net/scrapbook/images.html or #TuxScreen |
| 00:25:55 | prpplague | ibot: tuxscreen |
| 00:26:05 | prpplague | slumpy: check it out |
| 00:26:23 | slumpy | i did |
| 00:26:28 | slumpy | but i still dont know what it is exactly :s |
| 00:26:42 | slumpy | can u tell me what ppl use it for? |
| 00:26:46 | slumpy | video conferencing? |
| 00:26:54 | prpplague | slumpy: development |
| 00:27:04 | scanline | slumpy: it was originally a "webphone" of questionable usefullness, but now it's a hacking platform |
| 00:27:09 | slumpy | hmm |
| 00:27:12 | slumpy | and it runs linux> |
| 00:27:12 | slumpy | ? |
| 00:27:13 | prpplague | slumpy: an equivilant strong development platform might run you around $2k |
| 00:27:25 | prpplague | slumpy: you can purchase this for $99 |
| 00:27:27 | slumpy | so u could run a webserver off it |
| 00:27:38 | slumpy | does it have ethernet? |
| 00:27:51 | prpplague | slumpy: you could, but mostly this is used as a desktop development platform for mobile devices |
| 00:28:10 | slumpy | oh |
| 00:28:13 | prpplague | slumpy: tuxscreen is more for embedded system developers |
| 00:28:15 | slumpy | thats too bad |
| 00:28:23 | prpplague | slumpy: why? |
| 00:28:23 | slumpy | im looking for more of a thin client |
| 00:28:27 | slumpy | or terminal |
| 00:28:28 | slumpy | type thing |
| 00:28:31 | | i think tcsx-1 is http://www.linuxdevices.com/news/NS8485254374.html |
| 00:28:31 | prpplague | ibot: tcsx-1 |
| 00:28:31 | scanline | tuxscreen makes a good thin client |
| 00:28:47 | scanline | prpplague: file was telling me about those.. how much do you charge for them? |
| 00:28:53 | prpplague | slumpy: or the eon2000 |
| 00:29:12 | prpplague | scanline: we had been selling them for $385, but we have stopped production |
| 00:29:21 | scanline | ah |
| 00:29:26 | slumpy | rt |
| 00:29:30 | prpplague | scanline: they are now available from a tawainiesse company called icop |
| 00:29:31 | slumpy | ty |
| 00:29:45 | prpplague | slumpy: what kind of thin client are you looking for? |
| 00:29:58 | prpplague | says, TC's are his specialty |
| 00:29:59 | slumpy | uh |
| 00:30:04 | slumpy | like a remote x terminal |
| 00:30:21 | slumpy | so that i could view my desktop remotely |
| 00:30:23 | slumpy | over the lan |
| 00:31:20 | prpplague | slumpy: i'd go for the eon2000 |
| 00:31:21 | scanline | I dunno if you'd want X, the Tux doesn't have that much memory. VNC might be better |
| 00:31:24 | prpplague | from neoware |
| 00:31:34 | slumpy | ok |
| 00:31:45 | prpplague | slumpy: is this a one time deal or large numbers? |
| 00:32:09 | slumpy | one time |
| 00:32:12 | slumpy | its just for my house |
| 00:32:15 | slumpy | because im a geek loser |
| 00:32:34 | prpplague | slumpy: ahh, tuxscreen would probably do the job |
| 00:32:36 | slumpy | i guess i could just cobble together an old computer in a small case |
| 00:32:47 | scanline | slumpy: it depends on how much hacking you want to do |
| 00:33:11 | slumpy | not much |
| 00:33:11 | scanline | slumpy: if you know how to roll your own distros, or are willing to learn, the Tux is a good cheap solution |
| 00:33:17 | prpplague | slumpy: but if you can get an x86 with a reltek nic, your welcome to use my rootfs http://www.abcsinc.com/yopy/tcsx1-rootfs.tar.gz |
| 00:33:20 | slumpy | i know less about linux than i do about a monkey's butt |
| 00:33:33 | slumpy | what is rootfs? |
| 00:33:36 | slumpy | root file system? |
| 00:33:59 | prpplague | slumpy: yes that will go on a x86 box and an old ide harddrive as small as 20meg |
| 00:34:22 | slumpy | and it will boot linux? |
| 00:34:47 | prpplague | slumpy: yep, a complete linux thin client image for use as an x windows client |
| 00:34:50 | slumpy | i think i will build an old comp and run linux off a cdrom |
| 00:35:00 | prpplague | slumpy: thats a good choice |
| 00:35:14 | prpplague | slumpy: i'd also recomend you look at http://www.ltsp.org |
| 00:36:07 | prpplague | scanline: argh, my sons chasing the dog around with the bot now |
| 00:36:12 | scanline | lol |
| 00:36:40 | scanline | thinks prpplague's son would have a great time with some Lego Mindstorms, and that prpplague would probably end up in the hospital |
| 00:37:10 | slumpy | ha |
| 00:37:16 | slumpy | my LM stopped working :( |
| 00:37:24 | slumpy | i fudged up the ir device thing |
| 00:37:47 | prpplague | agrees |
| 00:38:51 | slumpy | rofl u have to see this |
| 00:38:52 | slumpy | http://www.starterupsteve.com/swf/mario.html? |
| 00:39:05 | scanline | doesn't do flash |
| 00:39:24 | slumpy | aww |
| 00:39:25 | slumpy | figures |
| 00:39:27 | slumpy | lol |

| 00:42:39 | file | I believe you. |
| 00:44:06 | file | pokes people at random |
| 00:47:46 | prpplague | slumpy: i never got into the mario thing, i'm more of the "are your bases" kinda guy |
| 00:48:17 | scanline | prpplague: my case mod cycles through some random quotes on the LCD when it's not in use, one of them is "ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US" |
| 00:48:35 | prpplague | scanline: lol, cool |
| 00:48:41 | prpplague | 2x20 lcd? |
| 00:48:48 | scanline | 16x2 |
| 00:49:33 | prpplague | scanline: i bought 120 4x40 lcd's for $20 last year, but i can't seem to find time to play with them |
| 00:49:47 | scanline | 4x40!! |
| 00:49:56 | file | OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH |
| 00:50:03 | scanline | I got one of those for my wallclock long ago, but I haven't seen them sold at good prices recently |

| 22:23:02 | CosmicPenguin | is very impressed with slypheed |
| 22:23:23 | CosmicPenguin | If it can do IMAP filtering, it has just taken over my desktop |
| 22:23:24 | file | pokes Russ some more |
| 22:30:57 | CosmicPenguin | It doesn't |
| 22:31:00 | CosmicPenguin | :( |
| 22:31:17 | CosmicPenguin | doesn't want to set up fetchmail and procmail very badly |
| 22:35:18 | andersee | CosmicPenguin: for what? |
| 22:35:23 | andersee | CosmicPenguin: spam filtering? |
| 22:37:48 | CosmicPenguin | andersee: lkml filtering and such |
| 22:38:11 | CosmicPenguin | now trys slypheed-claws - the bleeding edge version of slypheed |
| 22:49:35 | file | you ok scanline? |
| 22:49:35 | CosmicPenguin | slypheed-claws doesn't handle IMAP filtering either - thats sad |
| 22:49:41 | scanline | file: I'm fine |
| 22:49:59 | scanline | file: you worry if I'm away from IRC for more than 15 hours or so? :) |
| 22:50:02 | CosmicPenguin | but still, I discovered my new e-mail client for home |
| 22:50:16 | file | yes |
| 22:50:18 | file | I do. |
| 22:50:22 | scanline | haha |
| 22:50:44 | file | now get your bee-hind up to New Brunswick! |
| 22:50:44 | andersee | CosmicPenguin: I think I have finally figured out how to integrate spamassassin directly into postfix.... :) |
| 22:51:06 | scanline | Well, we were running some errands, then we tried to go to the local Six Flags amusement park, but it was too crowded.. so we had lunch. We're probably going to the pool in a couple hours |
| 22:51:36 | file | exciting life |
| 22:51:49 | CosmicPenguin | andersee: cool |
| 22:51:51 | scanline | Not ususally, this is stuff for the 4th of july |

| 22:53:08 | scanline | file: I was dumb for giving both machines the same root password.. this has been remedied |
| 22:53:09 | file | ic |
| 22:53:37 | file | I haven't a clue what I'll give azmarith for a root password |
| 22:54:37 | file | I need an IDE cable for a 2.5 inch laptop hardrive |
