01:54:20 <Arkhmud> wb ZachThibeau
01:54:39 <ZachThibeau> ty had to take a break from the computer so I went and watched some netflix on the wii
01:55:04 <Arkhmud> Which movie/series/whatever?
01:55:22 <ZachThibeau> old tv show called sliders that I used to watch as a young kid
01:56:36 <Arkhmud> Looks interesting. This one, right? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sliders
01:56:50 <ZachThibeau> yup
01:58:53 <Arkhmud> If you call 1995 old, I wonder what you do think of Bonanza (or even MacGyver).
02:00:45 <ZachThibeau> I've watched all the seasons of MacGyver and also the original A-Team
02:01:03 <ZachThibeau> I watched macgyver because of stargate actually
02:01:15 <ZachThibeau> well stargate sg1
02:02:02 <Arkhmud> Interesting. I was looking up for some Stargate wallpapers just a few hours ago.
02:04:26 <Arkhmud> And I'm also started to watch MacGyver because of O'Neill. I was watching TCM and there was this series with this familiar guy on it…
02:04:55 <Arkhmud> s/O'Neill/RDA/
02:05:23 <Arkhmud> And Sanctuary because of Amanda Tapping.
02:05:38 <ZachThibeau> I never got into sanctuary
02:05:48 <ZachThibeau> but another good show was Farscape
02:06:10 <ZachThibeau> had 2 characters that actually moved on to being regulars on sg1's last few seasons
02:10:21 <Arkhmud> So many interesting things to watch… someday I'll have to build a time dilation device someday.
02:11:21 <ZachThibeau> lol well farscape is now over but it was a pretty interesting show
02:12:33 <Arkhmud> I was thinking on watching Torchwood or Babylon 5 this year. Have you ever watched 'em?
02:13:11 <ZachThibeau> used to watch babylon but got tired of it
02:14:30 <ZachThibeau> so far my monolithic gtk is working and language switching still works
02:14:53 <ZachThibeau> if no one reports any major bugs I'll release it as a final release

15:23:47 <WifiWombat> what for
15:24:25 <WifiWombat> GordCaswell: what for
15:25:16 <GordCaswell> I'm redoing Lightscreen as a PAL-based app, and have it compiling correctly, but it isn't writing the registry file correctly, or correctly launching the app, and I can't figure out what I'm missing. I can show you what I've got, as well as the original nsi
15:25:45 <WifiWombat> i have no experiance with PAL
15:25:56 <ZachThibeau> yeah WifiWombat is Oliver
15:26:23 <GordCaswell> eh? oops...sorry oliverk..i should've checked your about info
15:26:26 <GordCaswell> lol
15:26:33 <WifiWombat> :)
15:27:45 <Ray039> hey zach the pchat beta installer set off norton with suspious activity
15:28:55 <ZachThibeau> it's a false positive, happens with nsis based installers alot
15:29:05 <WifiWombat> :D
15:34:07 <Ray039> wow it must really hate pchat now its telling me to restart the machine
15:34:23 <WifiWombat> norton hates everyone :)
15:35:16 <Ray039> ya its seems to have a problem with libreoffice and gimp and it does not matter how many times you tell it not to delete it does it anyways
15:35:33 <WifiWombat> again, norton hates everyone
15:36:00 <ZachThibeau> heuristic scanners in general are pretty flawed
15:36:22 <ZachThibeau> next virus database update "should" resolve the issues
15:36:26 <Ray039> ya ill be right back it wont let me stop the restart

22:37:25 <Arkhmud> hi pa_6503; how can we help you?
22:37:46 <pa_6503> just downloaded portable app
22:38:05 <pa_6503> got a 250 external drive
22:38:43 <pa_6503> does this app make it possible to read same drive letter every time i put in a computer
22:39:22 <ZachThibeau> the platform and the apps automatically adjust itself to the drive letter it changes to
22:40:10 <pa_6503> is there a way to statically asssign letter
22:41:49 <ZachThibeau> not across multiple computers, as I mentioned earlier the platform and apps adjust itself to work with drive letters so settings are remained on the drive
22:42:44 <pa_6503> ok so here is an example . just so i understand you correctly
22:43:06 <ZachThibeau> say you have external drive on one computer that assigns H:
22:43:17 <ZachThibeau> and then you move to another computer which assigns drive P:
22:43:45 <ZachThibeau> the platform and the app launchers themselves adjust to the new drive letter
22:44:14 <pa_6503> i have a program on my 250gig external drive . i have all the data for the program in the root of the external drive . once i unphow do i install the app so it knowknows where to look for the data every time i unplug or plug it in to a usb port
22:45:17 <ZachThibeau> assuming the app was obtained from PortableApps.com then the question is answered earlier
22:45:38 <pa_6503> no its not from portable apps
22:45:51 <Arkhmud> ZachThibeau: maybe using subst? I think it *may* work without administrator rights.
22:46:26 <ZachThibeau> but if not then it would be impossible, you would need to write a launcher to compensate
22:47:11 <pa_6503> whats subst ? is that a program ?
22:50:27 <Arkhmud> http://encyclopedia2.thefreedictionary.com/DOS+Subst
22:52:10 <pa_6503> ok cool thanks

23:46:43 <OliverK> lol: speak your problem
23:48:33 <lol> its strange i use portableapps under wine, but the only app that doesnt work is DOSBOX, why?
23:49:38 <OliverK> don't know, you could check online and see - if you're running why don't you just install dosbox on your OS
23:50:28 <lol> kinda paranoid, also i use slacko puppy linux v.5.3.3, and there is no DOSBOX for it.
