**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Jun 10 02:59:56 2008 Jun 10 12:14:30 Argh! X11 keeps crashing Inkscape Jun 10 12:14:40 ???????? Jun 10 12:14:42 english Jun 10 12:14:47 :-) Jun 10 12:14:53 g'day eric Jun 10 12:15:10 my X11 server keeps crashing while I'm working on my wizmac icon Jun 10 12:15:11 i know what X11 is generally Jun 10 12:15:14 hey Tony Jun 10 12:15:22 xwindows Jun 10 12:15:26 yep Jun 10 12:15:44 hehe whoops miss read you there Jun 10 12:15:45 how does it work with the Mac however? Jun 10 12:16:04 it's just another app Jun 10 12:16:15 that launches on the dock Jun 10 12:16:20 but why are you using that, do you have a unix box somewhere Jun 10 12:16:47 I'm using it to run inkscape natively on the mac Jun 10 12:17:13 I also use it for gimp Jun 10 12:17:24 gee those macs seem flexible lately :-) Jun 10 12:17:46 all singing and dancing Jun 10 12:18:11 I'm downloading a later version of the X11 package Jun 10 12:18:18 but it's taking forever! Jun 10 12:20:03 i just thought i'd have a quick look on the forums before settling down to the last 2 weeks of top gear.. so see you later Jun 10 12:20:29 strange that my phantom user is still here (with the underscore). I haven't rebooted my pc in days Jun 10 12:20:47 I wish trillian would handle IRC a bit better Jun 10 12:20:51 :) Jun 10 12:20:58 have fun watching top gear Jun 10 12:20:59 :) Jun 10 12:21:14 i think it is the start of the new season Jun 10 12:21:28 yeah this weeks was pretty cool Jun 10 12:21:29 (or did i watch the 1st ep of that a couple of weeks ago....) Jun 10 12:21:54 shame that SBS didn't continue putting the mega-old eps on Jun 10 12:22:15 i wanted to see when the fat salesguy left and the boring guy came :-) Jun 10 12:22:50 but they only did one retro season for some reason? Jun 10 12:24:15 ok, putting names to silly descriptions: I wanted to see why Jason Dawe left and James May came on? Jun 10 12:24:56 hehe I only know the latter as captin slow Jun 10 12:25:01 As they were babbling on about getting someone more boring in a competition of some sort in 2002, and then, bingo, James shows up :-) Jun 10 12:25:01 captain Jun 10 12:25:36 The cool thing about the retro eps that SBS put on was the new (my shape) STi was tested, mind you they rubbished it a bit Jun 10 12:26:25 what do you think of the new impreza shape? Jun 10 12:26:35 dunno yet.. Jun 10 12:26:50 much better for a hatch than any of the previous models though Jun 10 12:26:58 yeah Jun 10 12:27:10 but it's also lost its distinctive look Jun 10 12:27:15 in the process Jun 10 12:27:24 i loved my PulsarSSS hatch (1991 model), last of the decent ones before Nissan started major cutbacks Jun 10 12:27:47 but the Impreza hatch was simply tacking on a bit onto the back of the sedan, and looked really fugly Jun 10 12:28:15 not to mention that the sedan had a wider track and slightly pumped guards Jun 10 12:28:25 all the road tests etc were only ever on the sedan Jun 10 12:28:54 but now finally they are making the hatch their priority, and the sedan may have a boot tacked onto it next year :-) Jun 10 12:29:21 but yep, it is certainly nothing like anything previously done, it has lost all bar the scoop and badge Jun 10 12:29:30 hatch is more practical that's for sure Jun 10 12:29:44 if I didn't have a mortgage now I would probably consider updating Jun 10 12:29:59 but maybe look at the Golf Gti thingy Jun 10 12:30:29 hehe mortgages yay! :( Jun 10 12:30:41 hehe Jun 10 12:31:11 my 3 year interest fixed period is about to expire, it will be a shock to the system with the sudden hike in rates since i got the load Jun 10 12:31:12 lon Jun 10 12:31:20 loan... i will get it right in a sec Jun 10 12:32:01 I've yet to get into the market Jun 10 12:32:13 It's a bit of a scary prospect Jun 10 12:32:54 i was renting by myself, and they tried to put the rate up well over 10% (and this was 3 years ago LOL!), and I just got damn sick of 6monthly rate rises Jun 10 12:33:17 so am now paying 3times more to own a home....doh Jun 10 12:33:41 but you can drill in whichever wall you like! Jun 10 12:34:20 hehe, except it is a bloody villa, and my (4 only) neighbours said "no, you can't walk on the roof to fix holes, remove leaves etc" Jun 10 12:34:57 and told me I couldn't keep this dog I was looking after (even though it was an absolute angel, she never barked or did anything to annoy them) Jun 10 12:35:10 Ouch! Jun 10 12:35:13 that's no good Jun 10 12:35:36 they told me the strata bi-laws of course only after seeing me walking her daily about 7 months ago Jun 10 12:36:26 you'll have to get a goldfish Jun 10 12:36:32 hehe Jun 10 12:37:07 if i wasn't living by myself I would have fought them a bit to keep her, but sometimes i have to go interstate for work, so it was always a hassle to find someone to look after her anyway. Jun 10 12:37:39 what breed was she? Jun 10 12:37:50 as apparently the bi-laws were never officially signed/sanctioned... but still, normal strata laws states "they can't tell you you cannot have a pet, but you have to get permission from all"... Jun 10 12:37:56 A greyhound believe it or not Jun 10 12:38:18 hehe that's a rather strange choice of pet. ;-) Jun 10 12:38:27 from GAP (an organisation that rescues them from getting made into butcher meat/whatever after their racing career is over) Jun 10 12:38:39 ah k Jun 10 12:38:54 i thought so too, my German gf was the one who wanted to do it (foster one for a while) Jun 10 12:39:07 I had an alaskan malamute when I was growing up Jun 10 12:39:15 she was a great dog Jun 10 12:39:30 my gf is a cat person Jun 10 12:39:47 I'm allergic to cats. :( Jun 10 12:39:55 but she was such an amazing dog, i grew up with many many dogs (our family showed them when we were kids), and I just would have never thought a lanky skinny dog would be more loving than a furry papillon lap dog Jun 10 12:40:32 but man, she was a 26kg lap dog, greys actually have very little energy, they sleep about 99% of the day (on the bed, couch, bed, bed, couch) Jun 10 12:40:41 hehe Jun 10 12:41:04 so 1% of the time they race flatout. :) Jun 10 12:42:01 yep... i have tried running with her (on a lead of course) and she starts off trotting which I can just keep up with, but then she went faster, and this was too much... and then would stop while I still had a tonne of momentum Jun 10 12:42:22 2nd fastest land animal according to one or two people... Jun 10 12:43:22 I'm going to have to go for a bit Jun 10 12:43:34 installing X11 requires all my apps to close Jun 10 12:43:37 yep Jun 10 12:43:38 for some reason Jun 10 12:43:44 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_May is a classic actually Jun 10 12:43:50 what he did in autocar Jun 10 12:44:05 so when you are up and running, have a look if you are vaguely interested Jun 10 12:45:06 hehe just looking now Jun 10 12:45:18 look at the image for confirmation LOL Jun 10 12:46:07 i can't believe fans actually discovered that... Jun 10 12:46:17 some people are just born freaks I think Jun 10 12:47:49 hehe that is pretty ccool Jun 10 12:48:01 not really something you should get fired for though Jun 10 12:48:05 Captain Slow has a sense of humour Jun 10 12:48:34 i love the 3 car challenge they did a few weeks ago, thru mountains of italy etc Jun 10 12:48:57 yeah in the race spec car Jun 10 12:48:59 they should have gone to Germany, I kept screaming out "Germany" at the TV screen everytime they were pondering where to go next Jun 10 12:49:17 i guess this means i did see the 1st ep of the new season Jun 10 12:49:33 ok, well you should get your x env working, always fun and games Jun 10 12:49:52 I think the robin reliant space shuttle is still my favorite ep Jun 10 12:49:54 righto Jun 10 12:49:55 (I have had many batlles getting Exceed and/or Xwin32 working to Sun/HP servers in the past) Jun 10 12:49:58 installing now Jun 10 12:50:27 hmm not shutdown so far Jun 10 12:50:34 not/no Jun 10 12:51:05 comeon, it is a mac, not a winblows box, it should only rarely need to shut down lol Jun 10 12:51:42 that's what I thought untill I was installing something yesterday and the installer terminated all my running apps with extreme force. Jun 10 12:51:53 lol, hope nothing was open Jun 10 12:52:54 LOL YUV422 has signed off Jun 10 12:54:03 that one just needed my to logout Jun 10 12:54:08 my/me Jun 10 12:55:41 anyway, time is ticking on, catch you later Jun 10 12:55:48 righto Jun 10 12:55:49 cya Jun 10 13:14:09 ok, i am selling my house and getting that Audi Jun 10 13:53:45 hehe Jun 10 13:54:05 was it only 70,000 pounds?
