| [18:33] <kooldude> i am a noobie | |
| [18:41] <pwnguin> there's only one way to fix that | |
| [18:41] <pwnguin> practice! | |
| [18:53] <kooldude> im fresh new pwnguin... so can you give me a jumpstart | |
| [18:54] <kooldude> on what were doing | |
| [18:54] <kooldude> i am exactly 13 | |
| [18:54] <kooldude> and i have alot of computer expirence | |
| [18:55] <pwnguin> well I can't say what "we're" doing | |
| [18:55] <kooldude> k | |
| [18:55] <kooldude> srry... | |
| [18:55] <pwnguin> i just mean, i dont know the team | |
| [18:55] <pwnguin> Does the artwork team have a list of goals for intrepid? | |
| [18:56] <pwnguin> usually there's a theme | |
| [18:56] <kooldude> i dont know very much | |
| [18:56] <kooldude> about the goals | |
| [18:56] <pwnguin> just a general question, not directed at you | |
| [18:57] <pwnguin> anyways, there's usually a wallpaper and a gtk theme that the art team does | |
| [18:57] <kooldude> oh ok | |
| [18:58] <pwnguin> for intrepid, I believe a dark theme is getting a test run | |
| [18:59] <kooldude> i have a pretty good one... ill send a screenshot to you | |
| [19:00] <pwnguin> not a good idea | |
| [19:00] <pwnguin> well maybe | |
| [19:00] <kooldude> ? | |
| [19:00] <pwnguin> im not familiar with irssi and dcc | |
| [19:00] <pwnguin> but that doesn't stop me from using irssi =( | |
| [19:00] <kooldude> i see | |
| [19:01] <kooldude> here ill try | |
| [19:01] <kooldude> i opened a dialog window accept my offer please | |
| [19:02] <pwnguin> i dont see anything =( | |
| [19:03] <kooldude> hmm then try and right click my username in the sidebar to the right | |
| [19:03] <kooldude> and select "open dialog window" | |
| [19:03] <pwnguin> just a second | |
| [19:03] <kooldude> k | |
| [19:04] <pwnguin> interesting | |
| [19:04] <kooldude> what | |
| [19:04] <pwnguin> 13:04 Warning: Port sent with DCC request is a lowport (0, unknown) - this isn't normal. It is possible the address/port is faked (or maybe someone is just trying to bypass firewall) | |

| [19:05] <kooldude> i have a firewall | |
| [19:05] <kooldude> and im kinda having problems with linux and my dads router | |
| [19:06] <kooldude> did you get the photo | |
| [19:06] <pwnguin> i think so | |
| [19:06] <kooldude> good | |
| [19:06] <kooldude> you should see it | |
| [19:06] <pwnguin> oh | |
| [19:06] <pwnguin> pingus | |
| [19:07] <kooldude> the bottom yellow bar is an auto hide bar | |
| [19:07] <kooldude> what | |
| [19:07] <pwnguin> the background | |
| [19:07] <kooldude> oh yah... lol | |
| [19:07] <pwnguin> theres an artist who did a ton of those | |
| [19:08] <kooldude> i found a bunch of those at www.linux-wallpapers.com | |
| [19:09] <pwnguin> yea; I believe the goal is to make something new for everyone | |
| [19:09] <kooldude> ill show you my windows' theme | |
| [19:11] <kooldude> like that for a dark theme | |
| [19:11] <pwnguin> the white irssi background kinda looks wierd, no? | |
| [19:11] <pwnguin> http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_810_alpha1&num=1 | |
| [19:11] <kooldude> that i can't change | |
| [19:12] <pwnguin> kooldude: well, we've got the source code | |
| [19:12] <kooldude> ? | |
| [19:12] <pwnguin> to xchat | |
| [19:12] <kooldude> ohh... so you can change it | |
| [19:12] <kooldude> i see | |
| [19:12] <kooldude> kool | |
| [19:13] <kooldude> i better with the visuals... not so much the programming | |
| [19:13] <kooldude> but i do have somewhat expirence for configuring it | |
| [19:14] <pwnguin> as i understand it, the point of the dark theme in intrepid is to point out the problems with dark themes on the desktop | |
| [19:14] <pwnguin> so we can fix some of them | |
| [19:14] <kooldude> k | |
| [19:15] <jldugger> actually, you can change the xchat background stuff | |
| [19:15] <kooldude> but i like my dark theme... its nowere nearly as boring as the "high contrast and inverted" themes | |
| [19:15] <kooldude> i can | |
| [19:15] <kooldude> ? | |
| [19:15] <kooldude> how? | |
| [19:15] <jldugger> settings -> preferences -> colors | |
| [19:16] <kooldude> ohhh ok | |
| [19:16] <jldugger> foreground and background | |
| [19:16] <kooldude> lol | |
| [19:18] <pwnguin> heh, here's a fun screenshot http://people.cis.ksu.edu/~jld5445/wipeout.png | |
| [19:20] <kooldude> not so organized though | |
| [19:22] <pwnguin> meh. the point was to try out the wip3out font. it doesnt work well for anything besides text labels | |
| [19:22] <kooldude> k | |
| [19:23] <kooldude> i see | |
| [19:24] <kooldude> so here is the new and improved theme | |
| [19:25] <kooldude> the bar with the two desktops is a slide able | |
| [19:26] <kooldude> i think the dark theme i have RULES!!! | |
| [19:26] <kooldude> at least... for now | |
| [19:26] <pwnguin> kooldude: there's a program we use to demo themes | |
| [19:26] <kooldude> ? | |
| [19:26] <kooldude> demo themes? | |
| [19:27] <pwnguin> yes | |
| [19:27] <kooldude> please explain | |
| [19:27] <pwnguin> apt-get install thewidgetfactory | |
| [19:27] <kooldude> k | |
| [19:28] <pwnguin> then just run 'twf' | |
| [19:29] <kooldude> one sec my sudo is giving me the error crap | |
| [19:29] <kooldude> there | |
| [19:30] <kooldude> installing now | |
| [19:30] <kooldude> k i have it | |
| [19:32] <pwnguin> twf is the command, i dont know why it doesnt have a .desktop entry | |
| [19:33] <pwnguin> it demos about all the gtk GUI "widgets" | |
| [19:33] <kooldude> i can't get my theme to show in the choser | |
| [19:34] <kooldude> and it is saved as KOOL THEME | |
| [19:35] <pwnguin> hmm; you've probably done more with themes than I have | |
| [19:35] <kooldude> lol | |
| [19:35] <kooldude> i've costomized everything | |
| [19:35] <kooldude> and im 13 :P | |
| [19:36] <kooldude> lol | |
| [19:36] <kooldude> i dont mean to be offencive t all | |
| [19:36] <kooldude> at all* | |
| [19:36] <pwnguin> have you considered the google highly open participation contest? | |
| [19:37] <kooldude> ? | |
| [19:38] <kooldude> what's that | |
| [19:38] <pwnguin> google ran a contest a half-year ago | |
| [19:38] <kooldude> yah | |
| [19:39] <pwnguin> basically, people 13-18 are recruited to do stuff with open source projects | |
| [19:39] <kooldude> k | |
| [19:39] <kooldude> ool | |
| [19:39] <pwnguin> they give out tshirts and other stuff | |
| [19:39] <kooldude> that is awesome | |
| [19:40] <kooldude> i wish i had known about that earlyer | |
| [19:40] <pwnguin> like money | |
| [19:40] <pwnguin> well, if you're 13, it's pretty close | |
| [19:40] <pwnguin> the government doesn't like child exploitation | |
| [19:41] <kooldude> actualy i turned 13 in apil | |
| [19:41] <kooldude> april* | |
| [19:41] <pwnguin> http://code.google.com/opensource/ghop/2007-8/ | |
| [19:41] <pwnguin> yea, the context was over in february | |
| [19:41] <kooldude> so that wouldn't be possible | |
| [19:42] <kooldude> because the did it in febuary | |
| [19:42] <pwnguin> anyways, you might keep an eye out | |
| [19:42] <kooldude> i will | |
| [19:42] <pwnguin> if they do it again, it might be a good way for a young person to get expeience and mentoring | |
| [19:43] <kooldude> man thats kool | |
| [19:43] <kooldude> oh yah | |
| [19:43] <kooldude> and i have alot of expirence with gnome already | |
| [19:44] <pwnguin> oh? | |
| [19:44] <kooldude> hey... does anyone know that kde came out with a new version | |
| [19:44] <pwnguin> http://code.google.com/p/google-highly-open-participation-gnome/issues/list?can=1&q=completed&colspec=ID+Status+ClaimedBy+Summary&x=status&y=claimedby&cells=tiles has a list of last time's tasks, if you want to know what you'd be doing in the contest | |
| [19:46] <kooldude> i already was looking at that page | |
| [19:46] <pwnguin> ah | |
| [19:46] <pwnguin> he | |
| [19:46] <kooldude> anyhow did you know that kde came out with a new version | |
| [19:46] <pwnguin> i dare say, this might be something ubuntu should look into, I think last time they ran out of tasks | |
| [19:46] <pwnguin> yes | |
| [19:46] <pwnguin> they do that | |
| [19:47] <pwnguin> and then their bloggers wont shut up about it ;) | |
| [19:47] <kooldude> i think they are slightly copying the mac | |
| [19:47] <kooldude> os | |
| [19:48] <kooldude> lol | |
| [19:50] <kooldude> man that's all kool | |
| [19:50] <kooldude> so what improvment's do you think i could do with my desktop theme | |
| [19:51] <pwnguin> well, the window decoration gloss is a bit bright; it makes it hard to read the title | |
| [19:52] <kooldude> k | |
| [19:52] <kooldude> i can fix that | |
| [19:52] <pwnguin> is that the intrepid theme? | |
| [19:52] <kooldude> ? | |
| [19:52] <pwnguin> are you running intrepid or hardy? | |
| [19:52] <kooldude> hardy | |
| [19:53] <kooldude> but i think you all could use it as a base-off | |
| [19:53] <pwnguin> you might register a flickr account to host your screenshots; it'd be easier than dcc'ing and you'd have a historic record | |
| [19:54] <pwnguin> you might also try out the intrepid livecd | |
| [19:55] <kooldude> i have one | |
| [19:55] <kooldude> ill upload it | |
| [19:56] <pwnguin> see, im connected to irc via ssh so i have to bring up firefox anyways ;) | |
| [19:56] <kooldude> i see | |
| [20:02] <kooldude> i like firefox | |
| [20:02] <pwnguin> I like turtles | |
| [20:04] <kooldude> i like penguins!! WHAT NOW!!! | |
| [20:04] <kooldude> lol | |
