Agenda

There was no real agenda for this meeting besides getting to know each other.

Log

[18:00] Polygon89: :D

[18:00] SlickMcRunfast: so the beta isnt stable at all?

[18:02] Polygon89: feisty beta?

[18:03] *** br24 has joined #ubuntu-arizona.

[18:03] rsthree: i'm running feisty beta on two systems

[18:03] br24: sorry, had to switch to the lappy

[18:03] SlickMcRunfast: ya

[18:03] rsthree: looks like most of the issues have been worked over, but i don't know that it's 100% stable.

[18:03] rsthree: or, at least, as stable as it will be at release-time

[18:03] Polygon89: well i hope its pretty stable... its like being releaesd in 4 days

[18:04] johnc: other than the kernel problems i had it was pretty stable

[18:04] Polygon89: i ran it on my comp, but they still havent fixed the "keyboard volume button doesnt work"

[18:04] rsthree: i ran into some horrible kernel issues a few days ago, but all is well again

[18:04] Polygon89: and also, i cant use hibernate or suspend cause it takes out alsa when it awakens

[18:05] SlickMcRunfast: rs3 how was Crossover

[18:05] Polygon89: other then that it runs fine

[18:05] rsthree: SlickMcRunfast, i never got 'round to it

[18:05] rsthree: just sticking with wine at the moment.  i'm quite a bit shorter on funds this month than i had anticipated, but i didn't bother with a trial either

[18:05] Polygon89: wine is getting better

[18:06] rsthree: indeed it is

[18:06] SlickMcRunfast: .

[18:06] Polygon89: i just tried steam recently and was suprised that they actually intregraded the wine tray icons into the traybar

[18:06] Polygon89: so instead of an annoying box, they show up next to native linux tray icons, i like that

[18:07] rsthree: excellent

[18:09] rsthree: so, i guess this is the lot of us?

[18:09] br24: it kinda seems like it

[18:09] johnc: seems to be

[18:09] Polygon89: did you guys pm everyone that had replied in that one big topic in the forum?

[18:10] br24: Im sorry, I failed that task

[18:10] johnc: yea i think we got everyone

[18:10] Polygon89: whatever

[18:10] Polygon89: its all good br24

[18:10] br24: thanks

[18:10] johnc: our lead time was pretty short though

[18:11] johnc: it was no prob br

[18:11] br24: I think most people really dont care whether there is a group here or not

[18:12] Polygon89: or maybe they dont check the forums daily like we do =)

[18:12] SlickMcRunfast: they must be collecting posts

[18:12] br24: could be

[18:12] SlickMcRunfast: got to get them beans

[18:12] rsthree: haha

[18:12] johnc: maybe we should post a sticky on the loco.

[18:12] rsthree: my bean count is pitiful, like < 30 and i've had an account for over a year

[18:12] * rsthree is a professional lurker

[18:12] Polygon89: heh

[18:12] br24: Im right there with ya

[18:12] Polygon89: i have 700, been here a year

[18:13] Polygon89: just posting random stuff

[18:13] br24: oh, and one other thing

[18:13] Polygon89: about 100 of that was trying to get wireless to work on breezy

[18:13] johnc: took me 2 yrs for 700

[18:13] br24: I really havent used irc much either

[18:13] johnc: me either

[18:13] Polygon89: all you really need to know is what you have already done lol

[18:13] Polygon89: joining a channel

[18:13] rsthree: ah, now i've been doing irc for awhile, but not as often as once before

[18:13] Polygon89: changing your nick

[18:14] br24: oh Im catching on

[18:14] Polygon89: and to send messages to people that are highlighted, so they can see them better in large channels like #ubuntu

[18:14] br24: just need to learn the commands

[18:14] Polygon89: put their name then a comma

[18:14] Polygon89: all you really need to know :D

[18:14] rsthree: (and use tab for nick completion in most clients) :D

[18:14] br24: of course, Im in the process of learning multiple things at the same time

[18:14] Polygon89: yep.

[18:14] Polygon89: so like

[18:14] Polygon89: br24, this is highlighted for you

[18:15] br24: Polygon89, thank you

[18:15] Polygon89: :)

[18:15] br24: no worries, I learn fast

[18:16] br24: so what is on the agenda tonight?

[18:16] SlickMcRunfast: just to chat

[18:16] rsthree: mix it up a little and all that

[18:17] br24: giggity giggity

[18:17] Polygon89: adium for mac os x honestly puts GAIM to shame. i wish this program was for linux.

[18:17] rsthree: giggity goo

[18:17] rsthree: stick around

[18:17] Polygon89: err pidgin, whatver its called now

[18:17] SlickMcRunfast: what does it have thats different?

[18:17] Polygon89: well nothing really as it uses the gaim library

[18:17] Polygon89: its just better implemented

[18:17] SlickMcRunfast: I think gaim need a smaller interface

[18:18] SlickMcRunfast: the text is always huge

[18:18] johnc: anyone using exaile music player

[18:18] Polygon89: away messages in pidgin are weird, soemtimes they dont mark you as away...

[18:18] rsthree: i'm suffering through rhythmbox still :D

[18:18] Polygon89: and i hate it how it resumes your status from when you exit

[18:18] rsthree: what's exaile like

[18:18] Polygon89: i use exaile, great program

[18:18] johnc: i really like it

[18:18] rsthree: in the repos?

[18:18] Polygon89: basic but functional program

[18:18] Polygon89: yeah

[18:19] johnc: everything seems to work

[18:19] Polygon89: album art, lyric, wikipedia, library, most file types, mini mode

[18:19] SlickMcRunfast: exaile

[18:19] Polygon89: playlists, last.fm supportr

[18:19] SlickMcRunfast: what do it do

[18:19] br24: what other complaints about gaim?

[18:19] Polygon89: away messages are screwy, it resumes your status after you quit

[18:19] Polygon89: looks really kinda bad, lol

[18:19] br24: I dont think Ive been able to get invisible to work for me

[18:19] Polygon89: i hate it how it has three seprate login windows for three different accounts

[18:19] Polygon89: it should be one unified one

[18:20] br24: that could be difficult to do

[18:20] Polygon89: and, when you enter  a wrong password, its a pain to enter the right one again, as you have to go to accounts -> modify, delete the password thats listed there, click enable account and then login again

[18:20] br24: unless there is a single login that uses the different logins

[18:20] Polygon89: that could work.

[18:21] rsthree: like a keyring sorta deal, right?

[18:21] Polygon89: yah

[18:21] br24: but then you could go back to square one if one of the providers go down

[18:21] Polygon89: providers?

[18:21] br24: like aim, msn

[18:21] br24: aim can give me problems at time

[18:22] Polygon89: well what i think hes saying

[18:22] Polygon89: is that you give one password

[18:22] Polygon89: if that pass is corrent, then itlogs you in to all of your accounts

[18:22] Polygon89: that way you only need to enter one login, and remember one pass

[18:22] br24: but you would have to have that account verify the account(s) you use

[18:23] br24: some may have different user names, pw's

[18:23] Polygon89: well its just a password, that encrypts or whatever the pther passwords

[18:23] Polygon89: as in you have a diaglog box that you put all of the account info

[18:23] Polygon89: for all your different im protocols

[18:23] br24: hey I agree, would make things a little easier

[18:23] Polygon89: and then you enter a universal password for that

[18:23] Polygon89: so, when you enter that one universal password, the program is like "ok" and logs you in to everything using the info that you provided earlier

[18:23] rsthree: does kopete already do this?

[18:23] SlickMcRunfast: nothing like this exists yet?

[18:24] Polygon89: no idea

[18:24] rsthree: i was thinking kopete had a feature like that

[18:24] Polygon89: maybe gnome keyring

[18:24] br24: I cant think of any

[18:24] Polygon89: but they would half to add some plugin to pidgin to do it

[18:24] Polygon89: and also, adium uses this wonderful thing called growl

[18:24] Polygon89: its kinda like a more pretty version of libnotify

[18:24] Polygon89: the thing that lets you know you have updates aviable and all that

[18:25] br24: interesting

[18:25] Polygon89: and other programs can use growl, so like xchat can use it and everything

[18:25] rsthree: any of you guys doing amd64, out of curiosity?

[18:26] Polygon89: nah.

[18:26] br24: nope

[18:26] johnc: nope

[18:26] SlickMcRunfast: na

[18:26] Polygon89: speaking of gnome-keyring, does anyone use network manager? anyone know how to get rid of the annoying "enter password for gnome keyring so network manager can access the wep key"?

[18:26] rsthree: i can't make up my mind whether to stick with it or not.  the benefits are insignificant from what i can perceive, though.

[18:27] br24: I am

[18:27] br24: although I havent worked on getting rid of the pw prompt

[18:28] br24: mostly use this away from home

[18:28] rsthree: i remember encountering that but i don't know how to get rid of it.

[18:28] Polygon89: i just want gnome keyring to remember its password

[18:28] rsthree: i just disabled network manager on both systems

[18:28] Polygon89: well i use it cause i like having the little bars that show signal strength

[18:28] rsthree: it'd be handy for a laptop with wifi, though

[18:28] Polygon89: cause i use wifi on my tower

[18:29] Polygon89: ill see if there is an option in feisty before i go submitting a bug report about it

[18:29] rsthree: (nod) i use wifi on one of my systems--it performs NAT for the other system, which goes without a wireless adapter.

[18:29] br24: well I have found something

[18:29] br24: (Link: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=192281)http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=192281

[18:30] br24: it is older though

[18:30] rsthree: i'm surprised it'd be so roundabout

[18:30] Polygon89: i think they should add the option in gnome keyring

[18:31] rsthree: yeah

[18:31] johnc: submit it for gutsy

[18:31] rsthree: i just opened keyring-manager and...well, it does just what the title suggests and nothing more than it has to :D

[18:31] br24: I also found something that says it should work with feisty

[18:31] br24: (Link: http://johnny.chadda.se/2007/02/21/unlock-the-gnome-keyring-upon-login/)http://johnny.chadda.se/2007/02/21/unlock-the-gnome-keyring-upon-login/

[18:32] Polygon89: lol its in the repos

[18:32] Polygon89: so no need to compile... yay

[18:33] rsthree: keen

[18:33] Polygon89: well i need to wait for feisty

[18:33] Polygon89: oh well, i can survive 4 days

[18:34] br24: shouldnt be too much a problem

[18:34] Polygon89: yep.

[18:34] Polygon89: also, i noticed yesterday

[18:35] Polygon89: on a random note: windows is physically incabable of taking screenshots of dvds

[18:35] rsthree: indeed

[18:35] Polygon89: if you do, the screenshot is all weird and its like it has two layers

[18:35] rsthree: i've never successfully screencapped video in windows

[18:35] Polygon89: and one layer never moves so its all messed up.

[18:35] SlickMcRunfast: vlc

[18:35] SlickMcRunfast: it has a screenshot function

[18:35] Polygon89: i tried playing a dvd with vlc

[18:36] Polygon89: it worked... kinda but then it crashed

[18:36] Polygon89: i dont think it liked my dvd codec or something

[18:36] br24: amazing, winders having a problem...

[18:36] rsthree: heh :D

[18:36] Polygon89: so i had to reboot to ubuntu just to take a screenshot

[18:36] Polygon89: was annoying

[18:36] rsthree: which reminds me.  for you guys, why ubuntu?

[18:36] Polygon89: i tried suse

[18:36] br24: you may need to pay for support on that issue

[18:36] Polygon89: my wireless doenst work... *next!*

[18:37] Polygon89: i tried dreamlinux, its ok but really it just had everything that was on ubuntu already

[18:37] johnc: i tried a bunch of differnt ones, but ubuntu worked best and the forum support was the best

[18:37] br24: tried gentoo, suse, dsl

[18:37] br24: ubuntu was the second one for me after gentoo

[18:37] Polygon89: i tried sabayon linux, my wireless again didnt work, and when i posted on their forums, a developer basically said 'yes we know its a f---- bug, stop posting about it"

[18:37] br24: worked ever since

[18:37] rsthree: (nod) i think the forums do it for me.  but yeah, tried suse, gentoo, arch, fc5, slack10.2, a couple others

[18:37] johnc: i'd like to try gentoo, but install is a b   ch

[18:37] SlickMcRunfast: i got pulled because of the free cd

[18:38] SlickMcRunfast: aol got me with that one too

[18:38] rsthree: Polygon89, HAHA

[18:38] rsthree: that's helpful

[18:38] br24: took me 2 days to finish a gentoo install

[18:38] SlickMcRunfast: whaaa

[18:38] SlickMcRunfast: how

[18:38] Polygon89: yep.

[18:38] rsthree: i spent a weekend on gentoo back in late 2004 and said "screw it"

[18:38] br24: was fun at first, but got very old

[18:38] br24: especially after it broke on me

[18:39] rsthree: i'll absolutely sacrifice any interest i have in imperceptible performance gains to have precompiled packages made available to me

[18:39] johnc: i like the idea of being with the most up to date apps all the time though

[18:39] br24: indeed

[18:39] Polygon89: the downside of course if compling everything

[18:40] Polygon89: making sure you have all the dependencies

[18:40] Polygon89: the worst is compiling something when the program has no documentation on how to compile it properly

[18:40] rsthree: arch was a nice compromise in that regard, but i still found it a bit too involved for a desktop OS, at least given my present needs and level of interest

[18:40] johnc: arch has great artwork from what i've seen

[18:40] rsthree: (arch did a lot of compiling through installation/syncing with pacman)

[18:40] rsthree: (nod) i find arch tasteful at least

[18:41] johnc: i take it pacman is their package mgr

[18:41] rsthree: but, all this said, are any of you dual-booting windows or keeping a windows system handy, any of that? :)

[18:41] rsthree: yeah

[18:41] rsthree: it works a lot like emerge

[18:41] rsthree: er, portage

[18:41] br24: I still have one

[18:41] br24: only used for burning dvds

[18:41] Polygon89: i am, i use it for games.

[18:41] rsthree: (nod)

[18:41] johnc: no widows here. 2 years now

[18:41] rsthree: nice

[18:42] br24: I havent logged into it for about 4-5 months now

[18:42] rsthree: i still hijack my girlfriend's laptop occasionally when windows is called for, but it's too underpowered to run any recent games

[18:43] johnc: I started with dual boot, after a month or so of not using it, i just made the swithc

[18:43] br24: my gf wont let me get rid of winders on hers

[18:43] rsthree: (nod) :D

[18:43] br24: shes threatened me

[18:43] SlickMcRunfast: do it at night when she sleeps

[18:43] br24: um, she will know who did it

[18:43] rsthree: i find vista concerning, if not altogether scary.  we're hanging on to XP for as long as humanly possible on that laptop--it probably would not run vista well, if at all, anyway

[18:43] br24: she will be assimilated though

[18:44] br24: and theyre going to stop selling XP next Jan

[18:44] rsthree: yeah

[18:44] SlickMcRunfast: Dell still gives it out

[18:44] SlickMcRunfast: you just have to call in and ask for it

[18:44] br24: so other orgs are going to get their licenses from 3rd parties

[18:44] johnc: I sure would stick to xp if i had it

[18:44] SlickMcRunfast: I'm sure they will stock pile it

[18:44] br24: Ive played with Vista on vm

[18:44] johnc: have read terrible things about vista

[18:45] br24: almost everything I have is incompatible

[18:45] rsthree: johnc, you and me both

[18:45] rsthree: i want to find the link to it, but i think it's the "longest suicide note in history" whitepapers that convinced me of just how scary vista is :D

[18:45] rsthree: i forget what/where it is.  probably linked to from badvista.org

[18:46] johnc: i read an article today about dual booting vista and ubuntu. Lots of hoops to jump through

[18:46] Polygon89: lol

[18:46] Polygon89: yeah

[18:46] Polygon89: vista is still really buggy just cause nothing supports it yet

[18:46] rsthree: i heard it's a bit more involved than dualbooting xp and linux

[18:47] johnc: vista's new mbr is touchy and unfriendly

[18:47] Polygon89: its new, so i think its just because its new and not everything is documented yet

[18:47] br24: check this out

[18:47] br24: just found it, thought it was kinda funny

[18:47] br24: (Link: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/01/23/microsoft_incompatibilities_then_and_now/)http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/01/23/microsoft_incompatibilities_then_and_now/

[18:47] rsthree: Polygon89, vista's hardware requirements go beyond bigger numbers; because there is such a rabid push for content-protection and DRM, video cards and the like must be made to very exacting specifications to be vista-approved

[18:48] Polygon89: yep.

[18:48] johnc: another article i read showed vista idling ram at 50% on a 1 gig system

[18:49] rsthree: hahahahah

[18:49] br24: well I dont know about you all, but Im going to install Vista on everything

[18:49] Polygon89: linux kinda does that too, just beause it uses all the ram it can before resorting to swap

[18:49] rsthree: now, if i crack open "top" on this system, i have but 20mb of memory free roughly

[18:49] br24: all my machines, my coffee pot, old vcr in the closet

[18:49] rsthree: out of 1gb.  but i gather it's all about caching, prefetching, whatever else because i never seem to touch the swap

[18:50] Polygon89: yeah, swap is just virtural memory (and if you have like 1 gig it really doesnt need it) and it is also used for hibernate

[18:50] rsthree: (nod)

[18:50] johnc: i only have 512 and i hardly ever need it

[18:51] br24: sorry, was trying to bring in some humor

[18:51] Polygon89: hehe

[18:51] johnc: br,  i got it

[18:51] Polygon89: i use 300 mb usually, and a lot of that is because i run BOINC which uses a lot or ram

[18:51] johnc: sound converter uses into swap when i run it, but that's about all

[18:52] johnc: bathroom break brb

[18:53] rsthree: i don't think i needed to acquire 1gb but when i built this computer, i went nuts ;D  now it's just excessive, even a year or two later

[18:53] rsthree: i have 512 on the other system and it's fine.

[18:54] SlickMcRunfast: how many apps do you run at once?

[18:55] johnc: i'm back, and another long neck down the drain

[18:55] rsthree: right now, i have only some basic stuff.  evolution, gaim, xchat, rhythmbox, beagle sitting in the notification area

[18:55] rsthree: light duty

[18:55] br24: that doesnt sound promising

[18:55] Polygon89: beagle has a notification icon?

[18:55] rsthree: what's a good local brew, anyway?

[18:56] br24: where at?

[18:56] rsthree: Polygon89, i assume so.

[18:56] Polygon89: i installed beagle and it doesnt have an icon...

[18:56] rsthree: after installing beagle, i ended up with a magnifying glass in my notification area

[18:56] br24: never seen an icon for beagle

[18:56] rsthree: i think it's a feisty thing.

[18:56] rsthree: i mean, it's the generic search icon

[18:56] Polygon89: new version most likely

[18:56] Polygon89: oh...

[18:56] Polygon89: ok

[18:56] br24: rsthree, where are you at?

[18:56] rsthree: but it uses beagle when i invoke it

[18:56] Polygon89: thats an applet isnt it?

[18:56] rsthree: br24, yuma

[18:56] br24: ouch

[18:57] rsthree: br24, yeah, tell me 'bout it :D

[18:57] johnc: rs, I use to like one of the dark brews at PJ's brewer, but have killed too many brain cells to remember the name

[18:57] rsthree: Polygon89, yeah.  also opens if i tap F12

[18:57] br24: rsthree, yeah I remember now

[18:57] Polygon89: for some reason keyboard shortcuts dont work for me

[18:57] Polygon89: they dont work for beagle or tomboy... its weird

[18:57] br24: now that is one thing that bothered me with edgy

[18:58] Polygon89: that and i have to install an unoffical build of tomboy because the one in the repos is broken

[18:58] br24: I got all kb shortcuts working except for the log out

[18:58] rsthree: doh

[18:59] johnc: anybody know what file holds the preferred apps config. I'd like to change the music player from rhythm box to exaile

[18:59] Polygon89: no idea

[18:59] Polygon89: wait

[18:59] Polygon89: right click

[18:59] Polygon89: on the file that you want to open with exaile

[19:00] rsthree: hm.  good question.  i opened preferred applications and found it was stripped down quite a bit

[19:00] Polygon89: click "open with"

[19:00] br24: for file type, right click then go to open with

[19:00] Polygon89: and select exaile

[19:00] johnc: I meant for the player itself

[19:00] br24: should do the same thing

[19:01] rsthree: trying out exaile now

[19:01] johnc: My muti-media keys will only launch rhythm box

[19:01] rsthree: ooh

[19:01] rsthree: thanks for suggesting it :D

[19:02] johnc: rs, i really like exaile in gnome. intigrates nicely

[19:02] rsthree: it's like amarok without the crap

[19:02] Polygon89: lol

[19:02] br24: I may have to check it out

[19:02] rsthree: and kde-dependent stuff

[19:02] br24: if its that good

[19:02] rsthree: it does indeed integrate well with gnome

[19:02] johnc: Polygon,  righrt

[19:03] johnc: the only problem i have had is that when it is set to display album art on the desktop, it only shows on 1 desktop

[19:03] Polygon89: did you see if thats a reported bug?

[19:04] johnc: not yet, but i will.  Just started using it a week or so ago

[19:04] rsthree: i do have to admit that rhythmbox in feisty is quite a bit better

[19:04] rsthree: but exaile wins

[19:04] Polygon89: i used to use listen

[19:04] Polygon89: but for some reason i like exaile better

[19:04] johnc: to me it's kind of like ubuntu, it just works

[19:05] rsthree: true :D

[19:05] Polygon89: unlike itunes in windows

[19:05] rsthree: heh

[19:05] rsthree: horrible horrible horrible

[19:05] rsthree: :D

[19:05] Polygon89: once again, apple is incabable of creating an installer

[19:05] Polygon89: i try to install it

[19:05] rsthree: brb

[19:05] Polygon89: "error 5! registry is used by another process"

[19:06] Polygon89: or something like that

[19:06] Polygon89: this happened to me before for like 3 versions

[19:06] Polygon89: they fixed it, now it doesnt work again

[19:06] johnc: i considered apple before i found linux.

[19:07] Polygon89: its pretty nice (on a ibook right now)

[19:07] Polygon89: but linux wins overall :D

[19:07] rsthree: back

[19:07] johnc: expensive though

[19:07] rsthree: i have a soft spot for apple, but it'

[19:07] Polygon89: apple is a hardware company, microsoft / linux focus on software

[19:07] rsthree: s due in part to the fact i was raised on the apple ][+

[19:07] rsthree: and, later, the IIgs

[19:08] rsthree: i might get a mac eventually, if i decide i need to get serious about music again

[19:08] rsthree: because uh i sure as hell will not run a DAW on windows

[19:08] Polygon89: lol

[19:08] johnc: lol

[19:08] Polygon89: mac and linux are similiar enough, someone should create like macosxwine

[19:09] rsthree: haha

[19:09] johnc: that's a good one

[19:09] rsthree: i have to leave unfortunately

[19:09] Polygon89: ahh, later

[19:09] johnc: later

[19:09] br24: later

[19:09] rsthree: only one car between my girlfriend and i, and it's time to pick her up from work

[19:09] SlickMcRunfast: bye

[19:09] rsthree: later :D

[19:09] Polygon89: latas

[19:10] johnc: seems like we have a pretty good core group, if we can just expand it a little

[19:10] Polygon89: yep.

[19:10] br24: Im sure in time it will

[19:10] rsthree: oh yeah, before i jump out the door, i wanted to ask about that--if anyone has local ideas or plans or thoughts

[19:10] SlickMcRunfast: that is the plan

[19:10] rsthree: seeing as how we're all in the same state at least

[19:10] Polygon89: yeah

[19:11] br24: whatcha got on mind?

[19:11] Polygon89: im in tucson, there is phoenix, yuma..

[19:11] Polygon89: what kind of local thing?

[19:11] br24: what do you mean?

[19:11] rsthree: i wasn't sure.  i've never been involved in anything like a LoCo

[19:11] rsthree: i suppose none of us have? ;D

[19:11] br24: neither have I

[19:11] Polygon89: nope ;)

[19:11] johnc: not me

[19:11] johnc: we are pretty spread out for a local project

[19:12] rsthree: true

[19:12] Polygon89: well im sure there are more ppl

[19:12] Polygon89: i just noticed the az loco forum one day

[19:12] rsthree: well, we'll at least keep in touch enough and grow to perhaps incorporate some ideas later

[19:12] johnc: maybe a computer thing of some kind

[19:12] rsthree: not building rome in a day here

[19:12] br24: no worries

[19:12] Polygon89: yep

[19:12] rsthree: but yeah, i'm down to drive out of yuma at some point and hang out if nothing else

[19:12] br24: so lets start out with the basics

[19:13] johnc: right rs,  maybe just agree for now to meet here same time and place for a while and try to build interest

[19:13] SlickMcRunfast: this meeting was kindof last second so i'm sure more people will come next week

[19:13] Polygon89: yeah

[19:13] Polygon89: post a sticky about it

[19:13] br24: if you post it, they will come...

[19:13] rsthree: sounds good to me.  my sundays are almost universally open, but i can work in other dates/times now and again too

[19:13] Polygon89: does anyone hav eadmin powers for the local forum?

[19:13] Polygon89: err loco

[19:13] johnc: not me

[19:13] br24: nope

[19:14] rsthree: okay, now i'm actually gone.  see yas :D

[19:14] Polygon89: hmm, i guess a post should just suffice

[19:14] Polygon89: lol later

[19:14] br24: later

[19:14] johnc: but i think anyone can post a stick with permission from an adm

[19:14] SlickMcRunfast: banditti is the "leader"

[19:14] br24: but where is this leader?

[19:14] Polygon89: never seen him lol

[19:14] SlickMcRunfast: same

[19:15] SlickMcRunfast: I sent him a email

[19:15] br24: so much for that

[19:15] johnc: if you want i will see about the sticky

[19:15] Polygon89: that moderator guy is from az

[19:15] SlickMcRunfast: I guess if we hear nothing in a week we can ask an admin to give us the power

[19:15] Polygon89: wait i dont think hes the leader

[19:15] Polygon89: wait nvm

[19:15] Polygon89: i was thinking about brunellus

[19:15] johnc: i'm not sure we have a leader

[19:16] SlickMcRunfast: whos brunellus

[19:16] br24: so maybe some POC should be established

[19:16] Polygon89: Last Activity: 3 Hours Ago 04:12 PM

[19:16] Polygon89: brunellus is a forum moderator who is from az

[19:16] Polygon89: he posted a topic or something

[19:17] Polygon89: and banditti is the leader, at least his username is green and hes the author of the sticky... did anyone pm him?

[19:17] SlickMcRunfast: I sent an email

[19:17] johnc: not i

[19:17] Polygon89: try pming him, he was on 3 hrs ago

[19:17] johnc: good job slick

[19:17] Polygon89: hes part of the unanswered post team so he has to check the forums

[19:18] johnc: well, maybe just pm him again and see if he shows up next week

[19:19] Polygon89: ya

[19:19] SlickMcRunfast: I sent a PM just now

[19:19] johnc: good

[19:19] SlickMcRunfast: asking of he was still active in the AZLOCO

[19:20] johnc: if slick is agreeable he and i can pm our list again for next week

[19:23] johnc: I can do that

[19:24] SlickMcRunfast: protected

[19:25] SlickMcRunfast: so why does Rythembox save playlists in the use/share folder and not in my home folder

[19:32] br24: .opera

[19:32] Polygon89: oh, so it does save it under home

[19:32] Polygon89: /home/.opera

[19:33] br24: but thats typically a hidden folder

[19:33] Polygon89: yeah, like all other config folders

[19:33] br24: indeed

[19:34] br24: and I dont like having hidden folders showing

[19:34] Polygon89: yeah

[19:34] Polygon89: i was just worried cause i just backup my home folder, wipe my root drive and reinstall everything
