[00:54] <epod> new laptop achieved!
[00:57] <CPhoenix> epod: congrats! and stuff...
[00:58] <epod> CPhoenix: I'm pleased, I got a better CPU than I was expecting to, I think. lol
[00:58] <epod> given that I paid $348+tax
[00:58] <CPhoenix> What were you expecting, and what did you…*reads price*…I hate you...get?
[00:59] <epod> I got a Pentium Dual Core T4600 @ 2.3ghz, 3gb ram, Intel 4500MHD, Atheros Wifi... so it all worked out of box with Linux. Going to upgrade to 8gb ram this friday for $70.
[01:00] <CPhoenix> Shiny! Most important, does the wifi card support packet injection? I mean…uh…nvm.
[01:01] <epod> lol I don't know, I THINK atheros cards do all the modes
[01:02] <epod> lemme see what I have exactly...
[01:02] <epod> 09:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications AR8152 v2.0 Fast Ethernet (rev c1)
[01:02] <epod> 0c:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01)
[01:02] <CPhoenix> The used to not, but they all do now.
[01:02] <CPhoenix> Yeah, the AR9285 supports injection. Now, you must hack the neighbor's wireless and turn their connection into kitten net! :D
[01:03] <epod> I think I shall go install Backtrack and security test my friends wifi, since two friends of mine live within wifi range :D
[01:03] <CPhoenix> …no, don't do that. Not really. That's mean. Still, congrats on the deal. (If only darktable were good enough to replace Lightroom, I'd be running linux on my lappy in a second)
[01:04] <epod> pfft it's not mean to rename wifi to Kitten.NET ;)
[01:05] <CPhoenix> No, buggering the SSID isn't mean as long as you don't hide it, but doing this to a neighbour would: http://www.ex-parrot.com/~pete/upside-down-ternet.html
[01:08] <epod> lol that's just awesome.
[01:09] <CPhoenix> :) saw it originally in the alt text of XKCD
[15:47] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks
[18:00] <s-fox> Hello.
[18:17] <FiReSTaRT> hello s-fox
[18:17] <FiReSTaRT> what's goin on
[18:18] <s-fox> Not a lot, chilling out on a lazy Sunday :)
[18:18] <s-fox> What about you FiReSTaRT?
[18:18] <FiReSTaRT> same here.. trying to build myself a better virtual appliance for work
[18:19] <FiReSTaRT> i had a nice maverick64 setup running until i updated the kernel without installing dkms (oops)
[18:19] <FiReSTaRT> then i installed katya32 but it's been giving me a few issues such as high cpu usage (probably due to the eye candy)
[18:19] <FiReSTaRT> plus choppy audio on the first 3-30s of playback
[18:20] <FiReSTaRT> so now i'm setting up another maverick64 machine
[18:20] <FiReSTaRT> this time i WILL install dkms
[18:20] <willwh> FiReSTaRT: latest kernal broke satuff for me
[18:20] <willwh> I runj a t61 thinkpad
[18:20] <willwh> cpu usage spikes
[18:20] <FiReSTaRT> we'll see how the sound will work and ill try out some nx clients
[18:20] <willwh> for no reason from some process I an't rememver the name of
[18:21] <willwh> so I simply went back a kernal:p
[18:21] <willwh> kernel*
[18:21] <FiReSTaRT> i dont wanna fuck around with it too much... just want a trouble-free virtual appliance that will run an nx client, spark and twinkle
[18:22] <willwh> I like blink for a sip client tbh :]
[18:23] <FiReSTaRT> im just used to twinkle as it's a very powerful interface and i typically use it for testing stuff
[18:23] <FiReSTaRT> and now at work
[18:23] <FiReSTaRT> for home use, i just have one of those gigaset cordless sip phone systems
[18:24] <FiReSTaRT> the base that comes with c610a ip, and pimpin sl78h handsets
[18:24] <FiReSTaRT> bonus points: g722 and made in germany thus supporting first world manufacturing
[18:33] <FiReSTaRT> on a sad note, no speex support :(
