What? You mean Linux isn't an easy to install, user friendly OS?

Of course it isn't.

You're right.

So your chosen Linux-based Distro isn't easy to install and user-friendly?

Ubuntu? Try Debian.  Steve can talk you through all the problems you will likely have.

No, he's saying Linux is not an OS, but a kernel. Haven't you lrnt2StephenBurgerKing yet?

To be honest, I'm just looking for a good Linux OS to try out, whether it be Ubuntu, Debian, or whatever.  I'm open to suggestions.

Compatibility with my Xonar DS and GTX460 would be a great start, though.

I know. That's why I corrected myself with "Linux based Distro".

A Linux based distribution would mean that it's a based distribution of Linux.
A Linux-based distribution, on the other hand, is a distribution based on Linux.

A user friendly interface is a friendly interface of a user.
A user-friendly interface is an interface that's friendly towards the user.

What chosen Linux-based Distro [sic]?

You're probably best off trying a few and using whichever you like best. As I am most familiar with Debian, however, if you start with that I will be best able to provide support.

Compatibility with my Xonar DS and GTX460 would be a great start, though.

A Google search for "xonar ds linux" brings up this thread on the first page, which tells us that the Xonar DS is supported as of Linux 2.6.34. This means that the latest Debian GNU/Linux stable release won't be compatible with it, if you use the default 2.6.32 kernel. However, you can install Linux 2.6.38 from backports to gain support for it.

Visiting the nouveau wiki, we see that the GTX 460 is a member of the NVC0 family, which is mostly supported. Unfortunately, nVidia has decided to make these cards require non-free firmware, and so using the proprietary driver from nVidia is probably the only way for a non-technical user to gain support for them at this time.

You reset the world didn't you Hessy?

You reset the world didn't you Hessy?

My files got moved around, I just gotta put them back.  I didn't realize it till after this morning when I left for school.

I'll fix it when I get back, all is not lost.

I personally think a world reset is a good thing now and then.

Cleans up of all the shit you guys build.

Mugsy should invest in some explosives.


He should.

You should have a May 21st event in honor of the apocalypse.

Er, where does the server.log, server.properties, world folder, etc. belong?  They're just hanging out on my desktop.

eh, they should be in the same folder as minecraft_server.jar.

Er, where does the server.log

Probably /var/opt/minecraft/ .

server.properties

Probably /etc/opt/minecraft/ .

world folder

Probably /var/opt/minecraft/ .

They're just hanging out on my desktop.

lol

Those are standard locations for the configuration and variable runtime files of optional packages on Unix systems. It isn't my fault if badly written programs ignore them.

And c:\program files is the standard location for all windows programs.  Doesn't mean everyone uses it or is required to use it.

I know I don't.

Incorrect.

Nobody is required to do anything with the programs they write, but if someone asks you where the executable file for a program called Wangnuggets is, you would very likely say something like "probably In C:\Program Files\Wangnuggets."

That's just crazy, man.

I meant the non-system ones. Sheesh, you're picky.

which is what I said. Thank you for verifying my point.

Well, when you said "all" I kind of assumed you meant "all." Silly of me, I know.

I admit, my knowledge of wangnuggets pales in comparison to your first hand experience.

I fixed it, it's back up and running.

I also have a vent server if anyone has any interest.
