@rho: a yes is always better than a no :) Thanks brother (and sorry for the lack of communication recently, been totally offline hehe)

@wux: there might be an update to Bauchspeck, but it's not planned for now -- GNOME does everything *not* to work for everybody, so I am hesitating :)

Wux, maybe starting with 3.6, Sid seems to lag behind a lot...

Rhowaldt, good to hear it :))

Looks like we got some interesting projects coming up. I've been hard pressed to get pulled away from Kielbasa and i3. Did some taste testing around the buffet, but stayed with my main plate. Even installed i3 on bauchspeck :).

Anyway, good to see the grill getting fired up again.

just checking in to celebrate my installation of Trollinger. i have my customized circumsized Boner on a separate partition still, but was running into small issues (such as not being able to run virtualbox, wtf, no idea what is going on there...) and decided to go with the Trollmeister for an alternative. all i want to do is play Worms Armageddon again. oh and my GF's papa needs a new PC as well and figured Trollinger would make a solid base for somebody who wants to do online banking :D

everything is running smoothly now, but shit, i just had to pick that time after the freeze to do this and now we'll see what dist-upgrade brings me. adventure! :)

sweet additions, i have a raspberry, if you need testing, oh i got another raspberry for Rhow 8P'
Mr Borkage indeed.

hmpf, anyway i tried Pibang and it was rubbish, and it borked my card... terminator was slowww on an ARM proc.
when's the tablet bbq coming out then?
darkside, i guess i'll have to wait but is that how it *should be* or *is*

I noticed on boner it was ready to go with sshfs fuse groups and so on, had to play with baushy to work nice.

This forum still makes me miss this post from 8th!

What a menu Grillmeister! I will make a diet to be able to eat from this plate. Sounds wonderful! Let's go back to be awesome! :D

Popping the cork for Rhowaldt :) If Vbox doesn't work, it might be due to systemd. You can actually really try running WINE/PlayOnLinux for the single game you want to run, I'm Windows-free completely now, too, and WINE is continually improved, so give the guys a chance :)

Wux, the ssh thing is not set up yet in Bauchspeck (you know how much I love that release *pukes into the next rubbish bin*) Let's see how BBQ Pee will be, guess it will be a Trollinger base only. Darkside is a direct 1:1 plus a BBQ Tools submenu, everything else is the same fitting a CD *grin*

Ivy, I know what you mean with the 'new topic highlighting', is it possible you use two different browsers (for example on two different machines?) I have the same problem when I change between computers, that some old post show as new. Maybe I move the Releases section out of the News Section, ah the fuck knows :)

On a private note, I arrived back home yesterday after a long Odyssee (sorry Ivy for not showing up in the city of beer, and Rhow for making myself deaf and dumb after our phone), it was a very intensive time lol Was fucking around with real life stuff and people, I tell you, take a few days off and AFK, it really really improves life quality. The summer's here and the time is right for racing in the street!

@bacon: vbox gave me issues on trollinger as well. turns out i needed the virtualbox-dkms package. fuck me if i know why that shit ain't installed automatically with vbox, but okay.
spent last night setting up winxp, and will see how the Worms does tonight i think.

i love Trollinger. everything works great from the get-go, and even little things such as the sound-quality on Google Hangouts is better than what i managed on my Boner (no idea why btw but the results are what is important). it's just smooth and great, and i am considering a switch from my circumsized Boner. we'll see. at any rate, this might be perfect for my GF's papa's PC indeed.

thanks for the tip on Wine/PlayOnLinux. i'll check it out too! wanna get a little bit more into gaming again. and don't worry about the silence, i am selfconfident enough to know it wasn't about me :)
i'm still taking the AFK-advice to heart, but i do check in (mostly when at work :) now and then! look forward to speaking to you again!

P.S. all you guys are awesome :)

No idea. But usually I am accessing the forum from the same browser and machine. I have a culprit I will try to beat, the tab pinning in Fox. Because it reloads the page automatically after restarting the browser and then it is possible that I miss the new/active topics because they already showed up but I do not realize it and when you hit again on new, nothing. Damn, crappy explanation. :D

↑ I get the same thing on chrome. - maybe there's a weird cache on the bbs.

@bacon nice- change of outlook. from'I can get some air when I'm dead' to 'dancing in the street!'

Chromium doesn't want you to read about these funny Linux distros. Chromium wants you to read about real operating systems. Like Windows and.... Windows.
