mystified

Didn't I get you to switch to gentoo.....

That was back when you still liked a good distro. :P

We may have to ban you as a bad influence on the board. :P

I like my phone. I push buttons and call people and they can call me. :P

Yes he is. He invited me to join the #irc channel where they were discussing bug reports that had been filed and how to fix them. I did join it for a while. I didn't understand most of it unfortunately. :D

I just spoke to illogic-al a couple of days ago. He's part of the kde development team. Right now they're working on fixing bugs. I asked him when the kde 4 was going to be out and he said he didn't know. With all the new features I can't wait to see what it's like.

I have a 80 GB hard drive and I've probably used about 20 GBs of it. And that's with two distros. I've removed lfs so I have a blank partition. Don't think I'll be needing a big drive anytime soon!

Sorry, typo on my part I guess. I don't have the paper anymore to review if that's what they called it or not.

Well apparantly it's now called Bon Echo. Just like Mozilla is called Sea Monkey. Weird.

Wow, gentoo's getting a little slow...

They have been rather slow. I don't know if it's because they're short of developers or what. But all gentoo programs go through extensive testing before being put in portage as x86.

Firefox 2.0 was never in portage. :P

Well it finally hit portage so I'm emerging it now. It'll be interesting to see what it's like.

Nice screenshots everyone. I need to come up with something for my Mandriva laptop. It's rather plain and ugly atm.

Nice AI, I've never been very good with gimp. I find it very confusing.

Yay it worked! Thanks so much. :D

I want to get rid of the gold star in kde. I did it once before although I don't remember how but I remember it kept reverting back. How can I do this?

Thanks!

(Maybe I'll put a gentoo heart there :D )

Well I went through MCC and imported my windows fonts and it does look better.

Do you have the MSfonts installed? In the Mandriva Control Center you can manage fonts and have it import all your fonts from your Windows Installation.

Do you know the exact name of this program? I searched and couldn't find it. My fonts in Firefox are also ugly

Ok, I had installed openssh but not ssh-server. Now it works. Thanks guys. Like I said, I'm just used to doing things the Gentoo way.

What package contains libc.so.6? glibc?

Yes, it's glibc.

It occured to me that ssh may not be running in the Mandriva box. I'm so use to Gentoo and I have ssh set to run as default. I have no idea how to check it in Mandriva since the usual command doesn't work.

I have a fairly new router, a Netgear which is very similar to my old router. I have port forwarding set at port 22 for ssh and I can ssh into the board server but I can't ssh into my other linux box.

Here's the error:

mystified@localhost ~ $ ssh 192.168.1.2
ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.2 port 22: Connection refused

Any suggestions?

"A Hitachi unit announced plan to deliver what could be the first computer disk drive to store a trillion bytes of data, known as a tetrabyte. That capacity - equal to about 250 hours of high-definition video - is a big step up from the current limit of 750 billion bytes, or gigabytes, for high end drives on the market now." Don Clark, Wall Street Journal for Friday, December 5th.

I'm not overly new, but I like to take the easy approach and do the WYSIWYG stuff :P

Ok, now I'm going to have to go look at the source code so I can make fun of it. :P

Very nice ian. And I think the fonts look fine. jboy just needs glasses and won't admit it. :P
