That was less painful than I'd feared, though I had to activate a graphics mode I'd never previously used to get the display to actually work right.

Man, GNU tar is such a liar
14:28
<&[R]>
Tell it to make a tarball with a single hidden file and a full glob (as part of a massive bulk script)
14:29
<&[R]>
Every so often it's in a directory that only has that hidden file, so it complains it can't find * which is true and fine.
14:30
<&[R]>
But then it says "exitting with failure due to previous errors", given that "set +e" was called /and/ the script is still running...
14:30
<&[R]>
Also, it makes the tarball anyways

"Gnutar, master of deception" does sound surprisingly like a comic villain.

Specifically, Racket seems to be a successor of sorts to Scheme
19:18
<&McMartin>
(While also implementing it. Everyone I know who uses Scheme professionally - admittedly not many - uses Racket as their dialect of choice.)

We're looking to switch a netbook to Linux and have no idea what to look for at all. Goal is Python dev for Vash

What to look for in terms of hardware, or distro?

Distro. I don't know enough about Linux to know what's important at all. Tonight I should run a hardware scan to figure out what I've got to possibly narrow down the list - the only things I remember are the screen (1024*600) and the ram (1gb)

This her first Linux?
22:57
<&ToxicFrog>
Vorntastic: you'll want something relatively light on resource footprint, but that's more about what desktop environment you use than what distro.
22:58
<&ToxicFrog>
The most polished, mainstream (and thus easiest to get support for) ones are probably Ubuntu, Fedora, and SUSE; of those I use SUSE because it has a rolling-release version, and am generally happy with it.
23:03
<&[R]>
Ah yeah, I'd start with Xubuntu or Lubuntu
23:53 * Reiver curses his memory, his bad back, his inexperience with shopping manifests, and the inexorable progression of time.
23:53
<&Reiver>
I just spent the last six months trying to find a 1x16 GB stick of RAM, because that's what the shipping manifest told me I was getting.
23:53
<&Reiver>
And I wanted a second one.
23:54
<&Reiver>
Turns out it was 2x8 sticks, which were available everywhere, and frequently on pretty good deals, and I could have bought it at any time had I been able to pull out the PC and peer at its innards
23:55
<&Reiver>
And because it took me so long to finally check (when I pulled the thing out to give its dust filters a clean because spring cleaning, yo), the price of the stuff has risen by 50% since I bought it :/
23:55
<&Reiver>
I think that might just be breaking the back on my cellphone purchase.
23:56 * Reiver mumbles.
