<init2null> hi all
> hello
<Citadel> dude
<Citadel> linc
<Citadel> ok.  I got the info for you.
> cool!
<Citadel> two boot disks
<Citadel> the first seems to be a bit more popular, (although both of these are really difficult to find)
<Citadel> http://btmgr.webframe.org/
<Citadel> does more then just boot from a cdrom, it allows selected booting
<Citadel> now if that doesn't seem to want to boot from your cdrom, try this next one which seems to be lower level.
<Citadel> http://bootcd.narod.ru/index_e.htm
<Citadel> Bootable CD Loader v1.50Z
<Citadel> unzip bcdl150z.zip and there is a boot floppy image to rawrite or dd to disk.
<Citadel> these things are soo great for the many old boxs I've come across that don't support booting cdrom via the bios.
<Citadel> SLACKWARE RULES!~   
> Once you go slack, you never go back!
<init2null> well I tried slack, but I decided I like package-based distros better. do I count? :)
<Citadel> init2null if you try slackware again there is a really well maintained swaret package tool that makes it easy to install packages.
<Citadel> linc how I do skype into the show later?  whats the skype name?
> thelinuxlinktechshow
<Citadel> cool
<init2null> Citadel: isn't it more like a managed tarball installer than a real packaging system?

*** RoverVAIO (~sorry_n@kwis-clarion-118.kalnet.com) has joined channel #techshow
<pablo7> sorry 'bout that, my son is learning to type.
<Exdaix> Woot I actually made a broadcast for once
<LeonScape> My first too, I listened to the 2004 archive over the last week.
<allan> Welcome
<LeonScape> Thats a lot by the way
* Exdaix knows
<RoverVAIO> I have a list of shows for those that want it 
<Citadel> BEER will make the show better!@#!
<Citadel> NOOOO  WIN-PRINTER   --BAD--!
<RoverVAIO> located at http://tinyurl.com/2h5tn
<Citadel> mmmm laser.
<Exdaix> Befoer you go buy one, I suggest checking for a supported printer here: http://www.linuxprinting.org/
<LeonScape> I've got a HP deskjet 3822, runs sweet under Linux.
<LeonScape> The Catridges last forever
<Citadel> yea linuxprinting is a good site
<Citadel> canon is the good company that still allows 3rd party cartrages, and hasn't sued under the DMCA.
<Exdaix> Epson is nice... i just got a C84 recently... the cartridges are actually ink tanks.. all colors seperate and really cheap
<Exdaix> Works great with gimp-print
<pablo7> Lexmark has a great feature...
<pablo7> it says "Printing started... Printing completed."
<Exdaix> lol, is that really necessary?
<Exdaix> I can probably guess when it finishes
<pablo7> Maybe if it's noisy and you're blind.
<Citadel> oh yeah.. thats just the driver software that plays a .wav 
<Citadel>  /topic Crispy-Printing LIVE!
<michele> hp 5150
<LeonScape> CUPS with hpijs rulez!!
<Exdaix> Cups is best!
<LeonScape> Well for HP printers
<Exdaix> Never diss my Cups!  ;p
<Citadel> heh
<Exdaix> I love the CUPS Web Based config  (http://127.0.0.1:631/)  (when you have it installed)
<Citadel> DOWN with the web interface! h0h0h0
<LeonScape> Use KDE printing myself, Setups it up really easy.
<Exdaix> Haha...  I do file-based config too... I jsut find it handy  ;)
<Exdaix> what happened to The Linux Show?  I didnt hear it's gonna die
<LeonScape> Yep they nedd 25K.
<Exdaix> wow
<Citadel> I want to be on the AIR!
<LeonScape> The best thing about tllts and LugRadio is I can hear everyone. 
<allan> Send us a promo
<RoverVAIO> Exdaix yep it is true   The Linux Show will be ending :(
<Citadel> whats a promo? hmmmm
<Exdaix> RoverVAIO: Hmm... I've yet to listen to it too often... but I remember seeing them at LinuxWorld and the like
<RoverVAIO> they do have archives
<Citadel> ok what was the printer service linc uses instead of cups?
<RoverVAIO> get my file http://tinyurl.com/2h5tn
<LeonScape> Citadel probably lpr/lprng
<Citadel> k yea I wasn't sure.

* Exdaix likes Gnome Terminal
<LeonScape> for MusE http://www.muse-sequencer.org/
> http://www.angelfire.com/boybands/thevitamen/music.html
> Citadel, promo is a radio ID where person comes on air and says "I'm so-n-so and I listen to these guys.."..
<Citadel> ok back
<Citadel> haha
<Citadel> oh yeah
<dann> do it
<Citadel> I'm citadel, and I listen to the linux linc tech show... 
<LeonScape> Link not Linc
<dann> yeah
<Citadel> thats just it tho.. I think I'll skype in, and thats it.. I don't know what else I'd say.
<Exdaix> dann: Do you guys want prerecorded promos?
<dann> always
<Exdaix> k
<Citadel> er I ment link
<Citadel> oh yeah... people.   what is that audio blog search engine site?
<Exdaix> I'll have to setup Skype down in Savannah, as my current comp probably is too crappy
<Citadel> they have like a top100 audio blogs and stuff. 
<Exdaix> dann: Did the blackout today help with your troubleshooting?  Haha
<Citadel> what kind of backup software?
<Citadel> I've been trying out BackupPC  and I like it.
<Andrew> anyone in need of a pci express video card?
<Citadel> backs up windows and linux boxs via SMB (samba) or rsync 
<Citadel> http://sourceforge.net/projects/backuppc/
<Citadel> were they just talking about imaging boxes?
<Exdaix> ibooks
<Citadel> I remember if you image a bounch of windows boxs, the one thing you have to change on every single one is the computer name else they all yell about dhcp.
<Citadel> I've heard software like norton Ghost might actually change that string in the image somehow automaticly.
<dann> they have a sysprep utility that you can use which will give the image a unique name, ip, and all that
<Citadel> AND YOU RUN OUT OF SPACE!
<Citadel> NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
<dann> after weeks of researching and configuration, testing and finally implementation; about two weeks later we were back to step one as all those systems were borked when in production.
<Citadel> k
* Citadel brb  making a drink
<dann> there is a norton ghost client which will do that and allow you to make mass changes to workstations imaged with the client installed.  The only problem is the cost.
<dann> Per seat license gets very expensive
<Exdaix> dann: those ones we ghosted during the summer b0rked?
<dann> did you use the sysprep utility?
*** Signoff: pablo7 (Quit: Chatzilla 0.9.66 [Mozilla rv:1.7.3/20041001])
<Exdaix> dann: yea we used ghost images with sysprep that Jo made
<dann> all I know is that there were a handful of systems that crapped out and then trying to use that image proved problematic
<Exdaix> thats Jos fault.  ;)
<dann> pass the buck, that is what I like to see.
<michele> nice try, linc
<Exdaix> I learn from the best
<dann> Yeah, she even complained that the utility was crap.
<Exdaix> Shiver ME timbers
<LeonScape> ME shivers me..
<Citadel> ok back
<Exdaix> Citadel you sound fine
<Exdaix> lol
<michele> working fine
<Exdaix> Citadel we can hear you just fine
<michele> the silence is deafening
<Exdaix> lol
<Exdaix> It burns!
