02:04.08 | plarsen | hmmm - is there a special DVD codex pack to install for some DVDs ?? Totem won't play my "Lords of the Rings" DVD. But I do have the libdvdcss module installed. |

20:22.47 | plarsen | Man, I sure could do with a XML forum with ppl who knows XSD. Not necessarily IRC. Anyone have an idea? |
20:31.57 | jsmith | I've heard good things from some of the mailing lists |
20:43.19 | plarsen | jsmith: any particular one?? :D |
20:43.36 | plarsen | I could try NovaLug - but usually ppl there aren't discussing programming at all. |
20:44.43 | jsmith | There are some XML and DocBook mailing lists out there where most of the XSD experts hang out |
20:44.54 | jsmith | I'd lean more towards those, than the general purpose Linux ones |
20:48.52 | stickster | plarsen: There's an #xml channel here on Freenode you should try |
21:06.53 | stickster | *: Anybody know if there's a way to "kick" a process that's hung on a futex, or am I stuck with killing the process? |
21:12.24 | jsmith | As far as I know, you have to kill it |
21:12.35 | jsmith | Unless it'll respond to SIGUSR or something like that |
21:26.42 | stickster | jsmith: Blecch |
21:26.50 | jsmith | stickster: I know, I know... |
21:26.54 | stickster | :-D |
21:27.04 | jsmith | Gotta go build a server... be back later |
21:27.14 | stickster | Fortunately, Inkscape keeps a relatively contemporary backup in /tmp/inkscape- ... |
21:27.23 | stickster | Wanna see my crummy poster/flier? |
21:27.33 | jsmith-away | Sure! |
21:28.20 | stickster | http://groups.google.com/group/fredlug |
21:28.25 | stickster | I just put it up in the Files area |
21:28.40 | stickster | Sorry I'm not much of an artist. |
21:28.43 | stickster | Nor a designer. |
21:28.51 | stickster | Nor a Inkscape guru. |
21:28.55 | stickster | Nor a *SMACK* |
21:29.36 | jsmith-away | Looks pretty good. |
21:29.38 | jsmith-away | I like the oclors |
21:29.41 | jsmith-away | colors, that is |
21:29.52 | jsmith-away | The one thing I might add is "Wondering what open source is all about?" |
21:29.57 | stickster | Yeah |
21:30.01 | stickster | Suggestions welcome |
21:30.08 | jsmith-away | Other than that, it looks wonderful. |
21:30.18 | stickster | I built it with layers so I can substitute other text in places |
21:30.23 | stickster | Especially that area to the left of our ol' pal Tux |
21:30.34 | jsmith-away | That reminds me, gotta try to fix my travel schedule to get back the night of the 27th instead of the morning of the 28th. |
21:30.39 | stickster | haha |
21:30.48 | jsmith-away | Anyhoo... I'm outta here. |
21:30.54 | jsmith-away | Catch y'all later. |
21:31.00 | stickster | nighty-night |
21:31.04 | stickster | hope you're feeling better too :-) |
21:31.21 | jsmith-away | Yeah, I'm doing quite well |
21:31.32 | jsmith-away | Still can't lift anything more than 5 or 10 pounds |
21:31.41 | stickster | Right, don't strain yourself, man! |
21:31.55 | jsmith-away | But with the help of quigleymd and a bunch of other people, we got our stuff moved from storage to the house over the weekend |
21:31.59 | jsmith-away | So I'm no longer a transient! |
21:32.23 | stickster | woohoo!!! |
21:32.38 | plarsen | stickster: sorry, I was away. i've tried #xml for about a week now. Not even close to an answer to any of the questions I've posed. |
21:32.39 | stickster | I suppose all the pix taken from here on out will include broad grins |
21:32.57 | stickster | plarsen: Wow, that sucks. If you're going to bother having a channel, you should have people there at least :-\ |
21:33.18 | stickster | Well, there's always the xml-list, probably easier to get async communication there anyway |
21:34.01 | stickster | What is it, xml-dev? |
21:34.03 | stickster | Can't remember |
21:36.21 | plarsen | stickster: that wouldn't be too bad. |
21:36.30 | plarsen | As long as there at least is a message or two a day |
21:45.05 | plarsen | woohooo - problem solved. |
21:45.35 | plarsen | I guess the threat of finding a different place made them wake up (nahh, didn't write anything there). #xml was able to respond now. |
