just discovered this when wistfully sighing, wishing i could grep the web, so i searched for grep the web, and viola, i seems we can grep the web.  (disclaimer: havnt tried yet, just ran over to this thread all excited just this very moment upon discovery)

im late to the discussion (havent caught up with everything), but seems to me to find a replacement to spacefm is going to result in a loss (in features-to-lightness and awesomeness).

pcmanfm seems the immediate "only" choice.  but then ... how hard/bloaty would it be to have kde3's konqueror?   or... er... wasnt there a project that tried to make a stand-alone konqueror? ~ maybe i'm just thinking of amarok.

i'm still supposed to be taking it easy for health reasons, but the eager beaver workaholic who doesnt know his own limits in me wants to fork n maintain spacefm.  lol.

surely spacefm wont die, it's too good to die.  ~ maybe it's back from the dead already, i wouldnt know, outta the loop.

i'd suggest sunflower if it were a little more convention following in the little touches.

jedi,
stunning.

no one mention mate to you yet?

i've not used gnome3 at all yet, nor keen to after my kde4 experience.  i think i used mate briefly a couple times now.  seemed just like classic gnome to me.  but like i say, i've not seen enough to say it's every bit as worthy.  certainly seems a better way to live on than what happened to kde3, with a dozen poorly manned efforts all forgotten in the background, probably dead.   at least there's the likes of razor-qt and lxde-qt now.

mate seems nice tho.

ps, fuck the guff.  (re: gnome name legality stupid moves) 

Vesperae solennes de confessore, K 399: Laudate dominum (adante ma un poco sostenuto)

to soothe my frayed nerves and emotional turmoil

just listened to classical all last evening, after some prog (lots of yes)
more recently, been enjoying the soothing sounds of my workstation's fans.  XD   ... closest i could get to golden silence while still sat at my computer.

ooh, missed that first time around, was too taken a back with my textual glitch.  ^_^

that is one hella nice desktop background image.  reminds me of my fave one ever, that i used for years on my triple headed "crunchayon".   idk what it is about a few rocks poping up outta the water on a shore, looking out across the water to land on the horizon, with a nice cloudscape that really does it for me.  ^_^

[edit][response to above]nah, that was after much intensive use.  idk what's the real culprit for x deciding to ommit certain characters, in a not entirely consistent way.  ^_^  i dont recall what gave remedy to it... i restarted a few of the affected apps, and did a xmonad --restart, and, yeah, seems to be ok now.  i think it started right after use of lxappearance, and was only a couple characters at first... had to invite someone through to look at the screen to confirm to me that there was indeed some letters missing... cos at first my thought was "oh shit, here comes a migraine", since that's how many of them start for me.  rather quirky fun.  didnt hurt, didnt need to reboot, or restart x, or anything drastic like that.[/response][/edit]



another  of my heretical posts.   not on vsido!?  :O   heh, could easily be thoughh...  pretty much got the same apps n configs over there on my workstation still running that first version of vsido i ever installed ~ going strong, over a year on.

got my urxvt pimped in nicer colours now.  mmm.  looks good in tmux.  (and some termminal colours in .Xresources are easier to do than a tmux config.)

no fiirefox on this install... nor flash.  oh how  easy it is too keep my ram use in check. 

can always mpv any flash vids.  or mpv 'em over my sshfs mounts to the  workstation's exterrnal hd where i keep all those documentaries n lectures, n backups of sci fi n such.     reallly learning too love mpv all the  more, in exherbo, where i have useflag level of control over what gets built in.  no silly gui controls pop up on my mpv in exherboo, since i disabled that lua option.  in binary os, though, of course, you  just get stuck with it howeverr it was packaged for you.  ...  hrmmm, maybe  i should have shown a scrot of that, before  i rambled about it. ^_^

ps,
xmonad still, of course.  my tabular boonad config.  that terminal with a tmux session covering the top half of the screen, that's in an xmonad scratchpad... giving me similar capability as i'd get from yeahconsole or tilda (a quake-style drop-down terminal), but with greater control over what application goes in the scratchpad, where it's placed, and so on.  not often featured in my screenshots, as it doesnt do it justice... maybe i should start a screencast to show off some workflows sometime. 

MY EYES!  WHAT HAPPENED!?   XD

http://soffmimuhod.bandcamp.com/track/regabs-pardon2 capped my soffmi muhod playlist, and as it was playing it gave me the urge to relisten to autechre's ep7, so that's what i'm listening to now...  and oh, oh, oh how it makes all other music seem unworthy.  autechre, rpeg, first track from ep7

told u i like to prog it up.

a nice fat slab of yes's close to the edge, and LIVE. 

i hope it all goes well for you. 
i've not had a dual boot [with windows] since 2006ish iirc, so cant offer any suggestions about how to deal with the new issues for dual boot that uefi brought.  while it's great to be able to split up your linux os across many partitions across different physical drives, there's diminished gains for using more than just a single root partition (+swap) if you're not spanning physical drives.  it just adds complexity and increased chance of things going wrong.

all the best, superwow.  keep us in the loop. 
maybe share some relevant screen output to help us diagnose and help. 

anyone else getting that?

QuoteUnable to connect server irc.freenode.net port 6667 [Name or service not known]

all my irc clients are giving me that, on any of the half dozen ports freenode does.  even ones from different computers, even computers physically located in other countries.   over 12 hours its been like this.  briefly had issues connecting to irc.oftc.net too, but i seem to be back on it.

oh, seems i can get on http://wastedartist.com/distros/witch/witchat.html ... so long as i get past the clickjacking warning noscript now gives me for that (~dodgey bastid webhost company).


just been informed irc.freenode.net is getting ddos'd.   gurr.
