<ChinnoDog> darn Banshee, being difficult again
<andrew> silence broken
<freelancer317> awesome
<freelancer317> now we can all talk
<ChinnoDog> Was I supposed to be silent?
<andrew> freelancer317: How's it going?
<ChinnoDog> Now that the silence is broken I can blame lamalex for my Banshee being broken
<freelancer317> andrew:  pretty good.  been busy with family stuff (tball, honors society (kids), etc)  how about you?
<freelancer317> we blame alex for almost everything anyway... so why not Banshee not working!  lol
<ChinnoDog> ooh. Banshee unstable is not helping
<ChinnoDog> It won't let me manage my music on my phone
<ChinnoDog> It shows the music, it plays the music, but i can't delete stuff or add stuff
<andrew> been well
<ChinnoDog> oh. its my phone. It has decided to make my fs read-only?
<ChinnoDog> Fixed. The fs on my phone was corrupted.
<ChinnoDog> Guess i can't blame lamalex after all
<andrew> why note?
<andrew> not*
<ChinnoDog> Because my fs was corrupted and idk if Banshee did it or not
<ChinnoDog> So... we haz Natty release party?
<ChinnoDog> I suggest Buffalo Wild Wings in Easton.
<JonathanD> Morning PA.
<rmg51>   morning JonathanD
<JonathanD> Hello rmg51
<rmg51> o/
<JonathanD> how goes
<JonathanD> I woke up thinking it was sunday :(
<rmg51> I wake up hoping it is always Sat. :-D
<rmg51> breakfast time
<InHisName> Breakfast Morning  Y'all
<knightzero> Morning everyone.
<JonathanD> Howdy knightzero
<JonathanD> Good morning.
<andrew> morning
<andrew> Fetching files for the upgrade at 3,123 kB/s
<andrew> I can live with that
<andrew> (for now)
<InHisName> @logs
<PennBot> <pleia2> we haz logs, http://ubuntupennsylvania.org/PennBot/ or What happens in #ubuntu-us-pa stays in the logs
<andrew> hence the for now, someday, when installs are done off some sort of holographic, multi-petabyte, pinky-nail sized thing, this speed will feel "like dial-up"
<InHisName> Could always try booting win3.0 for comparisons
<andrew> would first need win3.0
<JonathanD> I have it.
<JonathanD> On CD, no les.
<jrmy> hello everyone
<teddy-dbear> o/
<rhpot1991> andrew: squid-deb-proxy if you want faster :)
<InHisName> I have 3.0, 3.1 and many more.  Not sure if floppies are still readable though.
<jrmy> knightzero: figure out that ram thing?
<InHisName> Is there a txt mode command to uninstall the propriatary nvidia drivers ?
<ssweeny> jockey-text
<ssweeny> InHisName, ^^
<knightzero> jrmy: you should have an email waiting for you in the gmail account you provided me, as of this morning.
<ssweeny> jockey-text -l to list drivers, jockey-text -d <DRIVER> to disable the one you don't want
<jrmy> knightzero: ok havent checked it in a few hours
<InHisName> GtkWarning  could not open the display etc.         is jockey-text need gui ?
<InHisName> Works fine in my main box terminal window, but gui is running.
<InHisName> Tried with sudo but same error.
<InHisName> test box has problem.
<ssweeny> jockey-text should not require a gui. that would be missing the point
<InHisName> @later tell SamuriAlba Buy everything bacon here http://www.thinkgeek.com/caffeine/bacon/
<PennBot> InHisName: The operation succeeded.
<ChinnoDog> andrew: elaborate on synergy problem please
<andrew> when I try to unautohide the unity bar, it doesn't, because my mouse has already left the screen
<andrew> I'm assuming you are familiar with synergy
<andrew> and unity
<ChinnoDog> Synergy yes, Unity not so much
<ChinnoDog> I run Synergy+ all the time
<andrew> Unity has a bar on the left side, by default, it autohides
<andrew> but this bar is critical as it's kind of the taskbar of the system
<JonathanD> I can see how synergy would cause issue with that.
<ChinnoDog> Right, I saw that when I installed Natty on my laptop while doing btrfs tests
<ChinnoDog> It wasn't autohiding though
<andrew> move the mouse to the first column of pixels on the left of the screen, ideall, unity bar appears, but synergy takes the mouse off the screen and puts it on the next when you reach that point
<andrew> I've disabled the auto-hiding
<andrew> which appears to be a compiz thing
<ChinnoDog> Ah, I understand now. So either you have to disable autohide or you have to put your Unity screen on the left
<ChinnoDog> Is the Unity bar movable?
<andrew> nope
<waltman> Does it come with almonds?
<andrew> ChinnoDog: unity is on the left, but so is my XP system
<JonathanD> andrew: it's not autohiding on my install
<andrew> JonathanD: do you have compiz (aka: desktop effects) enabled?
<ChinnoDog> waltman: huh? almonds?
<waltman> "Unity bar" sounds like some sort of new candy bar to me :)
<waltman> "hershey bar". "wonka bar". "unity bar".
<andrew> "college bar"
<waltman> andrew: It sounds like what you really need is a "corner bar" :)
<andrew> there's a side bar right up the street
<waltman> is it a shot and a beer bar?
<andrew> dunno
<JonathanD> andrew: probably not.
<andrew> but probably
<JonathanD> I haven't figured it out quite yet.
<rhpot1991> andrew: I have the same unity + synergy issues
<rhpot1991> if you disable autohiding the unity bar then things end up under it anyways, so that doesn't fix the issue
<jedijf> rhpot1991: did hotkeys help? like super...super tap
<rhpot1991> there is a setting for corner instead of left side for displaying the bar, that helps, but going to a corner is a pain
<andrew> yeah, for now I've set it to not hide
<rhpot1991> jedijf: slightly, if you use super + w or get rid of the delay for alt+tab its helpful
<andrew> but I'd love to have it at half the width it is now
<rhpot1991> but the lack of gnome applets or xchat tray icon burnt me then, so I went back to classic again
<jedijf> super + s did something too, but i can't remember now
<rhpot1991> andrew: no issues with things hiding under it then?
<rhpot1991> jedijf: displays the desktops I htink
<andrew> super + s is expo
<rhpot1991> yep
<rhpot1991> all of those work in classic mode too
<andrew> (used to be super + e)
<rhpot1991> super + e does nothing now
<andrew> rhpot1991: nothing is hiding under it now
<rhpot1991> andrew: when maximized?
<rhpot1991> how'd you get that to happen
<jedijf> super tap or super hold...can't remember does the gnome-do'ish thing
<andrew> I miss having the workspace chooser as one-click to change
<andrew> and of course, super+space no longer brings up gnome-do
<jedijf> andrew: super tap or hold
<andrew> rhpot1991: most of my windows are maximized
<andrew> tap?
<jedijf> try it
<jedijf> quick hit
<andrew> I don't have a tap/hold key
<jedijf> just tap the super key
<andrew> and I'm not a fan of the unity super thing, it's too slow
<rhpot1991> superhold makes it show up
<jedijf> thanks....
<andrew> also, it fails to search the way gnome-do did
<rhpot1991> and then you can hit 1-x for the shortcuts in order
<andrew> I had gnome-do trained to accept 'e' (or 'erm..') for terminal
<rhpot1991> let me log out and see if I have issues with it covering stuff when autohide is off still
<rhpot1991> hmmm thats working
<rhpot1991> weird wonder why it was doing that on my other pc
<rhpot1991> could be twinview or something
<rhpot1991> I need to find a replacement for timer-applet then
<rhpot1991> andrew: you can resize the icons in the experimental tab in ccsm
<rhpot1991> backglight toggle is useful too
<andrew> back
<andrew> rhpot1991: thanks, set down to the minimum of 32
<rhpot1991> andrew: super + numbers works out well
<rhpot1991> and super + w
<rhpot1991> for switching quickly
<andrew> most of my switching is between workspaces
<andrew> not liking super+w, there is very little difference between the highlighted window and the others
<andrew> ctrl+alt+[shift]+tab
 * jedijf might not have enough dexterity for that one
<andrew> so... anyone else expereincing internet troubles today?
<JonathanD> freenode just had a minor split...
<JonathanD> and another one.
<JonathanD> nm, that was the same one.
<teddy-dbear> see I was right, it's all JonathanD fault :-D
<JonathanD> hah
<ChinnoDog> So now that Amazon has had major downtime, who has the most reliable public cloud?
<JonathanD> Perhaps sony can make one.
<rhpot1991> andrew: go disable the delay for alt+tab too
<rhpot1991> that makes that much better
<ChinnoDog> JonathanD: Sony is going to make a cloud?
<jedijf> psn
<rhpot1991> s/cloud/open directory of personal information for the interweb to share/
<JonathanD> no, I sure hope not ChinnoDog :p
<ChinnoDog> Ok, well, if Amazon is big but not reliable enough... I thought I had read about a way extend EC2 into your own data center
<andrew> rhpot1991: where?
<rhpot1991> andrew: ccms -> static application switcher > behavior > popup window delay
<rhpot1991> its a paper cut now apparently so hopefully they change that
<andrew> changed
<andrew> rhpot1991: is there a list of paper cuts for this release?

<InHisName> toggles:  Buy everything bacon here http://www.thinkgeek.com/caffeine/bacon/
<PennBot> Title: ThinkGeek :: Caffeine & Edibles :: Bacon (at www.thinkgeek.com)
<toggles> mmmm bacon.. how i miss thee...
<andrew> Hrm...
<andrew> mission accomplished
<andrew> ccsm -> unity plugin -> (super -> shift+super)
<andrew> now gnome-do works again (super+space)
<andrew> and I can lock the screen with super+l
<toggles> mission accomplished would be getting gnome-3 installed
<andrew> True
<andrew> but until then
<andrew> I also like that I can finally choose the "Span" option for desktop wallpaper
<InHisName> what is a "Span" option, andrew ?
<andrew> InHisName: When one has a dual-screen setup, it's nice to be able to have one image spanned across both screens, enabling the use of wallpapers like: http://interfacelift.com/wallpaper/Df79dcc3/01120_mossbraefalls2_3360x1050.jpg
<InHisName> Kewwwwwl
<InHisName> Have you tried taking your own big pictures like that one ?    There is a waterfall north of Doylestown that could look pretty spiffy in one of those long pictures.
<andrew> InHisName: This was my 3-screen wallpaper for a while: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ahotw/4632293571/

<andrew> InHisName: a few more there ^
<InHisName> the snowy one has some character but doesn't trim well to rectangle.   I still like st one best so far....
<andrew> snowy one?
<InHisName> No snow just jagged white space below rocks.
<andrew> Seneca?
<InHisName> Could be,  I used to hang out around there 35 years ago cave exploring alot.
<andrew> Those photos have names
<andrew> one says "seneca"
<InHisName> So I see now
<andrew> I'll most likely have a chance to redo that photo this summer
<InHisName> If you catch a blue sky day, I may want a copy too.
<andrew> I'm planning on spending a few days in the area, so we'll see
<andrew> My brother is Interning a few miles away this summer
<InHisName> Well maybe do it on a cloudy day for comparison.  Greens maybe lots better on cloudy days.
<InHisName> I found the rainy wet miseralble biking camping days had the most gorgeous greens ever, If I could remember to lift my head up and look now and then.
<andrew> I've tagged a few more photos here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ahotw/tags/panorama/

<ChinnoDog> lamalex: so how did it go?
<lamalex> i got home around 4:30

<ssweeny> aww
<ssweeny> now we don't get to hear
<andrew> oh well
<InHisName1> test box graphic back working...    system>preferences>monitors shows "unknown" for monitor name.    HOW To fix ?
<InHisName1> It used to work in earlier version, now its 10.10
<InHisName1> trying something ....    reboot ...
<InHisName> Grr, disk drive check
<toggles> ahh yeah, gnome shell.. thank $deity
<InHisName1> last item: needed an xorg.conf to force monitor recognition
<InHisName> Wish me luck,  I started down the path of upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04 on the test box.
<toggles> InHisName: good luck...  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/648180
<PennBot> Title: Bug #648180 in unity (Ubuntu): âUnity is not an adequate replacement for Gnome2 (and sucks a little bit less then it used to)â (at bugs.launchpad.net)
<jedijf> all those kind of reports are invalid until trying for like 6 weeks....humans hate change...try it a bit, realize what it said on the wiki, that they just wanted to get it out there with some 'best choice' defaults...
<ssweeny> yeah i'm using both gnome 3 an unity (on diff machines) and both have taken a lot of getting used to
<jedijf> and let's see what happens
<jedijf> first night i couldn't stand the up/down workplaces....i've mellowed
<jedijf> when my 82 year old buddy said he's kinda liking it, after initial 'i hate it', it gave me hope
<jedijf> llavins++
<jedijf> and honestly...i am being more temperant because of team members and their work lamalex++ ssweeny soon.....
<jedijf> now, it's personal
 * ssweeny will not be on the DX team, but some stuff i do may end up in ubu eventually
<jedijf> i'll buy the watch or the toaster ;)
<ssweeny> excellent
<jedijf> or the MarkPad
<pleia2> llavins++
<ChinnoDog> So is there a place to buy an eCAFE Slim HD yet?
<JonathanD> I've been seeing a lot of unity bashing. It's unfamiliar, but on my test box I don't find it that bad...
<andrew> I've started to learn to bend it to my needs
<ssweeny> generally you're going to hear mostly from people who are having problems
<ssweeny> the people for whom it works have less incentive to talk about it
<JonathanD> Also this isn't an upgrade, for me, this is a clean install on a clean box.
<andrew> So, I think I'm going to awaken my blog with a post about what changes I made to overcome my problems
<JonathanD> I'm carrying my T41 as a spare now, so I might install it on that next
<JonathanD> if the video card is up for it.
<ssweeny> unity-2d is actually pretty slick
<ssweeny> it's good for non-3d-enabled hardware
<JonathanD> (no more dual booting, I'll just carry two laptops. Now thats progress ;) )
<jedijf> JonathanD: llavins installed on t41
<JonathanD> It's got an ATI something or other.
<jedijf> andrew: a blog post on how you resolved issues during a transition would be great
<JonathanD> I do think the app finding is a little awkward.
<JonathanD> I like tree-ing menus.
<jedijf> andrew: prolly good idea to follow all the admistriva channels; especially for this issue
<jedijf> issue...change...transition
<JonathanD> figures I just got the 41 setup nicely though.
<JonathanD> I should have waited :P
<jedijf> JonathanD: wait for andrew's post...and then gnome-do will make you love it
 * jedijf applies pressure
<andrew> back
<andrew> jedijf: You can tree, to an extent
<JonathanD> I'll install windows ME in the meantime while I'm waiting for andrew's blog post.
<JonathanD> jedijf: is that suitable pressure?
<andrew> JonathanD: no, install slackware
<andrew> so far, all my tweeks have been fairly standard settings, nothing that includes scary anti-ubuntu stuff

<silvertip257> Hello!  I'm attempting to PXE boot Ubuntu-based live CDs with the squashfs on NFS.  Has anyone in here undertaken a similar project?  I can PXE boot small distros (ones that have the rootfs as part of the initrd).
<silvertip257> Any other distros either 1) cannot locate the root fs _OR_ 2) have problem with (it seems) NetworkManager dropping the interface
<silvertip257> I'll just have to post this project to the mailing list for comments. :)
<JonathanD> meh
<ChinnoDog> jedijf: I need to make a laptop appear. Any suggestions?
<andrew> best buy
<knightzero> ChinnoDog: what's your budget and timeframe for need.  If you aren't in an incredible hurry and don't need brand new, I'd check the lenovo and dell outlet for deals.
<ChinnoDog> knightzero: as cheap as possible.
<ChinnoDog> like, -$100! Pay me to take your netbook
<ChinnoDog> FreeGeek sells used laptops, right? But, I remember them being pricey.
<pleia2> microcenter has refurbs
<pleia2> laptops start at $200
<ChinnoDog> Online or are they in a bucket or something? hehe
<pleia2> er, netbooks :)
<pleia2> pick up in store, when I bought a refurb there I reserved it online and went to pick it up from their customer service area
<ChinnoDog> You bought one there? For you?
<pleia2> I bought a little server
<ChinnoDog> The cheapies have Intel GMA 3150 graphics. Is the driver for that any good?
<pleia2> not a clue
<pleia2> might search on ubuntuforums.org

<JonathanD> Good morning PA
<rmg511> morning JonathanD
<JonathanD> Howdy rmg511
<JonathanD> did I ever ask you why you're up so early? :p
<rmg511> stupidity?
<JonathanD> Thats a good reason.
<JonathanD> I'm up so I can say "good morning PA" so I think thats about the same ;0
<rmg511> I even forgot to change my nick :P
<rmg51> saw that last night and forgot to change it
<JonathanD> The rain woke me up this morning.
<rmg51> back to reading the morning paper before the dead tree version arrives
<rmg51> the alarm clock usually wakes me up ;-)
<JonathanD> I don't use one.
<rmg51> yeah, just wait for the rain
<JonathanD> heh :P
<JonathanD> well, I tend to get up early enough with or without the rain :)
<rmg51> sometimes I do too
<rmg51> but I keep the alarm set for those days I don't get up before it goes off
<JonathanD> I figure someone else will wake up if I don't.
<rmg51> I just can't depend on Teddy
<rmg51> he could sleep all day
<JonathanD> heh :)
<rmg51> sad but true
<JonathanD> alarm clocks are so glaring :/
<rmg51> try waking up to a teddy bear falling on your face :-D
<InHisName> It said that my hardware does not have level to support unity so please select ubuntu classic at login.   Then it booted on into my normal desktop, yea it at least recognized my monitor!
<InHisName> Good morning anyone
<teddy-dbear> anyone isn't here ;-)
<knightzero> Good morning InHisName, teddy-dbear
<InHisName> Mornin' to you, knightzero
<teddy-dbear> o/
<InHisName> well, my test box stopped the desktop being visible and just the mouse arrow.   Did something time out?
<InHisName> 10 minutes, so far of mouse moving and pressing shift, ctrl, alt keys.   No login prompt yet.
<InHisName> Just finished the u/g to 11.04 at 7 this morning.
<InHisName> Screen saver has me frozen with just a mouse arrow working.   What to try now ?
<rhpot1991> InHisName: not a netbook is it?
<InHisName> Correct,  desktop, older 1cpu 2.0 ghz
<InHisName> Its my test box
<JonathanD> hey InHisName
<InHisName> Hi JonathanD.
<InHisName> I tried ctrl-alt-del but it ignores that.    ctrl-alt-f2 brings up a text login.  alt-f7  brings back the mouse arrow & black screen.
<InHisName> how do I poke a stick to alt-F7 to wake up from tty alt-F2 ?
<andrew> Ok, who ever is trying to get the password reset link for my gmail account can give up now, I don't play that easily
<ChinnoDog> andrew: How are they doing that?
<andrew> it's the common 'forgot password' thing
<andrew> but I keep getting a password reset email to my alternate email accounts
<andrew> which I promptly delete and clear from the trash
<ChinnoDog> But how would someone use that to get the password unless they could see your email?
<andrew> They can't
<andrew> but it's annoying to know someone is trying, and twice this morning
<ChinnoDog> Where is your alternate email? Could someone be trying to intercept traffic to it?
<andrew> yahoo/work
<ChinnoDog> So for someone to intercept traffic to it they would either have to be somewhere on the internets between google and yahoo or they would have to know where you work and be intercepting work traffic
<andrew> doubt it, last time it happened was a month or so ago, and I had plenty of information on the person (they used my email to do their taxes with hr block online...)
<pleia2> haha
<andrew> I ended up calling HR Block about that one since there was no way to let them know online.
<andrew> darn Virginian
<ChinnoDog> hmm
<ChinnoDog> So how did they get your password then?
<pleia2> he already said they didn't
<andrew> they didn't, but they tried when they realized they weren't getting the hr block emails
<andrew> but just from those emails, I know this person's full address among other things
<ChinnoDog> But, why would they use your email address for hr block in the first place?
<pleia2> obviously by mistake
<pleia2> people generally don't send their tax information to someone they don't know on purpose :)
<andrew> they technically used a.keyes instead of akeyes, but gmail doesn't care
<ChinnoDog> ah, I see
<ChinnoDog> luckily I don't think anyone will accidentally use my email on a web form. haha
<rhpot1991> andrew: I don't think gmail would let them register like that then
<rhpot1991> if you had a.keyes, akeyes shouldn't be available
<andrew> exactly
<andrew> they probably messed something up
<andrew> not my problem
<rhpot1991> phone number on the tax return, you could call them
<andrew> no, hr block got in contact with them and fixed things
<andrew> I didn't want to log in and get into that mess
<InHisName1> Gave up and held in button and ended.
<InHisName1> Hung again,  rebooted.   dirty disks, long time, errors, more time.
<InHisName1> Rebooted and shutdown 3x.  All appears to work ok now.
<InHisName1> Tried Pidgin, ok its running and I can get back from screen saver mode.
<ChinnoDog> Does lucky lamalex have any stories to tell us?
 * lamalex doesn't kiss and tell
<lamalex> i did see a ghost today
<lamalex> i could tell you about that
<lamalex> but i don't think it's a good story, it was just really frightening
<ChinnoDog> I'll accept a ghost story
<lamalex> i saw a ghost  i think, but probably not
<lamalex> thats the whole story
<ChinnoDog>  that is a pretty weak story
<lamalex> yup
<ChinnoDog> lol

<rmg51> Unity didn't like the hardware an my oldest laptop
<rmg51> had to use Ubuntu Classic
<MutantTurkey> what can you do with the new 11.04? even less than the 8.10!
<JonathanD> Morning.
<InHisName> mawnin' JonathanD
<JonathanD> Howdy InHisName
<InHisName> what's the key command to wake up ubuntu from hibernate and key cmd to wake up from suspend ?
<JonathanD> is there one?
<JonathanD> I thought just bashing the keyboard did it.
<InHisName> If I were an angry bird, maybe
<JonathanD> though I think I usually hit the power button.
<JonathanD> on my laptop.
<InHisName> On mine was BLUE+F#    I forgot which number
<JonathanD> that puts it to sleep, on mine
<JonathanD> no idea if it wakes it. power button is more easily accessed.
<InHisName> Yea, right
<rmg51> morning JonathanD InHisName
<InHisName> Either BLUE+any F key or BLUE+hib key for wake up from hibernate
<InHisName> My desktop doesn't do BLUE
<JonathanD> Hello.
<rmg51> power button to wake up from either one
<rmg51> with Teddy's System76 laptop, if you close the top, it wakes from sleep as soon as you open it
<InHisName> My test box has gone to some kinda deep sleep, power still on, fans spinning.  No video sync. Mouse active power but no mouse on screen.  Duh no monitor sync!
<JonathanD> rmg51: I hate that feature.
<JonathanD> THe sleep on close thing.
<InHisName> Tried momentary power button push, not 9 seconds.   Nothing
<knightzero> Morning all.
<InHisName> morning to you, knightzero
<InHisName> test box still giving me grief at booting well enough yet.
<InHisName> Sometimes I get into gui desktop but only mouse arrow moves.  No actions or anything clickable.  Clock not updating.  None of the Ctrl-alt keys work or any others either.  Not even ctrl-alt-del.  Only hold power 10 sec works.  Then dirty disks. Uggh.
<InHisName> Is there a way to reduce the screen pixel size of desktop to lower number via text mode in recovery ?
<InHisName> Morning's almost over, anyone else awake yet?
 * waltman *yawns*
<ChinnoDog> I'm hungry
<InHisName> ChinnoDog: before you go grazing for food, see above ^^     How to change screen resolution ?
<ChinnoDog> I don't know. I stopped knowing anything about X after xorg.conf went away
<ChinnoDog> oh..
<ChinnoDog> If you go into recovery I belive you can configure x
<ChinnoDog> I forget the command. xconfigure?
<ChinnoDog> (does that still work?)
<InHisName> no, nor xconfig
<andrew> So... why doesn't Libre Office use the fancy Unity menubar?
<InHisName1> Well, I got into gui and cranked resolution down to 1024x768 and see if that stops the disabling.
<andrew> There's a fix, sudo apt-get install lo-menubar

<InHisName1> win7 is a desktop for ubuntu ?
<pleia2> no, the microsoft OS

<InHisName1> any clues on how to clean up old junk appearing in dpkg/status ?
<andrew> So what's up with Mark preferring iPhone over android?

<JonathanD> Thats what I heard, anyway.

<InHisName> Good morning to you all listening
<InHisName> When I IM my alter ego and get this:  (10:16:12 AM) InHisName1 <AUTO-REPLY> :  I'm not here right now
<InHisName> Does that mean that pidgin on that machine made an auto response or was it from freenode ?
<ChinnoDog> Freenode won't auto respond
<ChinnoDog> Oh. Unless that is its way of giving you your away message
<ChinnoDog> But it doesn't look like it
<InHisName> ChinnoDog: so that response came from a host machine running pidgin for inhisname1 ?
<ChinnoDog> I just looked. That is your away message. What client did you paste that out of?
<InHisName> I have 'two' machines.  I IM'd InHisName1 from InHisName and got that response.
<InHisName> I am trying to prove whether that machine is frozen or stuff is still running.
<ChinnoDog> I know, but I am trying to interpret "AUTO-REPLY". That might be Pidgin's way of displaying your away message, in which case it came from the server because Pidgin did a /whois InHisName1
<ChinnoDog> I can't ping or ctcp InHisName1
<InHisName> Can you IM him?
<ChinnoDog> I did, no response
<InHisName> Then maybe that desktop is frozen.    I still have  ctrl-alt-f1 access.   F7 seems non-responsive to any inputs.
<InHisName> ChinnoDog: can u ping or ctcp (what is that ?) to me, InHisName ?
<InHisName> ChinnoDog: is there a way to examine from ctrl-alt-F1 login to see usage / activity /etc of Alt-F7 ( the desktop) ?   Ver 11.04  2D
<ChinnoDog> If there is I don't know how
<ChinnoDog> At least, not without some configuration ahead of time
<InHisName> pleia2, andrew, or lamalex    could they have thoughts ?
<lamalex> huh?
<InHisName> I'm gettin' tired of shutdown F1 with F7 running frozen and then disks are dirty again.
<andrew> about?

<InHisName> that's /boot
<InHisName> what can I remove from /boot   that I wont be needing ?     how many older versions of kernels do I need for 11.10 ?
<ssweeny> InHisName, if the latest kernel works for you then you can remove all the older ones
<InHisName> How to view the boot options screen without booting ?  viewing text ok.
<InHisName> Maybe there are older ones than in boot options
<ssweeny> InHisName, /boot/grub/grub.cfg has the list. every line that starts with menuentry is an entry on that screen
<InHisName> ok I'll look
<InHisName> I got bunches of them.  about 11 diff ones.
<InHisName> what is best way to trim out and keep last 4 or so.     rm 26.28.* etc. or some grub way ?  The rm....wouldn't fix grub
<ssweeny> InHisName, you want to remove the kernel packages
<ChinnoDog> sup turkey
<ssweeny> InHisName, the easiest way to get rid of the old kernel packages is probably to use synaptic and look for the 'local or obsolete' status

<ChinnoDog> All I want to do is test an internet smtp server
<JonathanD> you can telnet into an smtp server and send mail.
<pleia2> ChinnoDog: swaks
<pleia2> http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/633 has nice examples
<PennBot> Title: Testing SMTP servers with SWAKS (at www.debian-administration.org)
<ChinnoDog> pleia2++
<ChinnoDog> thanks!!
<ChinnoDog> JonathanD: I'd rather use a client. I've telnetted into IRC servers and chatted too using the protocol from the RFC. That is ugly.
<ChinnoDog> pleia2: that is just what I needed. It even has sane defaults for all the parameters.
<pleia2> that's why I get paid the big bucks
<JonathanD> ChinnoDog: smtp is a good deal easier than irc to telnet to.
<JonathanD> It's maybe 4 lines :)

<jthan> emacs or vim?
<jthan> go
<jedijf> nano
<jthan> noob
<jthan> :-p
<pleia2> lol
<jthan> pleia2 is a vim-er
<jthan> I can tell
<pleia2> that's because we're all good-looking
 * jthan is afraid of emacs and uses vim himself
<InHisName1> does vim run in linux too or just windows ?
<jthan> InHisName1: http://www.vim.org/download.php
<InHisName1> wow Amiga and OS/2 amazing
<InHisName1> jthan: does vim do something more than vi ?  (which is superset ?)
<InHisName1> seems at their home page, they claim to be the super set.   vi iMproved.
<JonathanD> Morning.

<JonathanD> Lovely :)
<JonathanD> Pick me up some cheese.
<rmg51> cheese isn't on my list for this week :-(

#ubuntu-us-pa 2012-05-06
<rmg51> great
<rmg51> no hibernate in 12.04 on Teddy's laptop
<rmg51> now I don't know if I should upgrade my laptop
<jedijf> rmg51: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html
<jedijf> fix teddy's first
<rmg51> doing it now
<rmg51> same thing I found
<jedijf> rmg51: did it work?
<rmg51> not yet
<rmg51> I forget how to save in nano
<EvilResistance> ctrl+w no?
<EvilResistance> ctrl + o
<EvilResistance> for "WriteOut"
<rmg51> not working
<EvilResistance> are you using nano or vi?
<rmg51> they don't tell you where to save the file
<EvilResistance> by default that is the case
<EvilResistance> there is no 'Save As'
<EvilResistance> if you're editing a file in a folder, and that file still exists and wasnt changed since you edited, it auto-overwrites
<rmg51> nano
<EvilResistance> hm
<EvilResistance> in nano it automatically asks where to save
<EvilResistance> even if editing a current file
<EvilResistance> you sure you dont see it in thhe bar at thebottom?
<rmg51> this is a new file
<EvilResistance> it will be very close to the command-things
<rmg51> https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html
<EvilResistance> ah, well your new file will be saved wherever pwd is
<rmg51> trying to get hibernation to work
<EvilResistance> but it should ask what filename to use
<EvilResistance> s/pwd is/pwd says you are/
<rmg51> it's saved in home
<EvilResistance> with the changes?
<rmg51> yes
<EvilResistance> so cp the changed file(s) with sudo to wherever they go
<rmg51> where it goes is what I don't know
<EvilResistance> You can also enable the hibernate option in the menus. To do that, use your favorite text editor to create /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla. Add the following to the file and save:
<EvilResistance> i think its stated right in there dude
<rmg51> that's the part I don't think I fully understand
<EvilResistance> how so?
<EvilResistance> do this: sudo nano /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla
<EvilResistance> then edit the file as it says to
<EvilResistance> then save it
<EvilResistance> voila, that file's been edited
<EvilResistance> (if you don't edit with sudo, it wont save but will need to be saved elsewhere)
<rmg51> let me try again
<EvilResistance> also, if you dont know what something means, you ask about it
<rmg51> I just did
<EvilResistance> (and ask specifically about what you don't know, and not a roundabout thing)_
<jedijf> rmg51: control x
<EvilResistance> right, ctrl+o to save, ctrl+x to exit nano
<rmg51> this is where I get messed up
<rmg51> I'm not sure what if anything I should name the file
<rmg51> should it be the whole fist string?
 * EvilResistance facedesks
<EvilResistance> i'll let jedijf help you, i'm in an argument with a bugcontrol member
<rmg51> /etc/polkit I suck at terminal :P
<jedijf> the whole thing the first part is the path, the last part is the filename
<rmg51> looks like it saved it right this time
<rmg51> it's there
<rmg51> just no hibernation
<EvilResistance> might hav eto reboot first
<EvilResistance> to refresh the settings
<rmg51> just tried with log out
<rmg51> didn't work
<EvilResistance> can someone do me a favor?
<EvilResistance> check and see if the quantal repos are responding
<rmg51> trying reboot
<EvilResistance> rmg51:  logout doesnt autorefresh system settings
<EvilResistance> reboots do though
<rmg51> doing it now
<EvilResistance> jedijf:  can you check and see if the quantal repos respond to apt-get requests?  building a chroot for quantal is 404ing
<rmg51> didn't work
<jedijf> rmg51: you have to issue the command pm-blah blah
<rmg51> still no hibernation
<rmg51> not with the file
<jedijf> did it show up in the power menu drop down?
<rmg51> it's supposed to bring it back to the shutdown menu
<rmg51> no
<jedijf> yeah, i just read that
<JonathanD> Evening.
<rmg51> got it
<rmg51> you need to save the file first then add the lines
<rmg51> I just reedited it and took the /etc/polkit...... line out
<rmg51> hibernation is now back on the menu
<rmg51> I keep telling everyone I suck at command line
<rmg51> works off the menu
<rmg51> didn't work from the keyboard
<rmg51> back to normal
<rmg51> got it working from the keyboard
<JonathanD> Morning.

<Allentown> Hello all!
<rmg511> Morning
<JonathanD> Morning.
<rmg511> bye-bye
<waltman> Morning
<JonathanD> Hey waltman
<waltman> coffee++
<JonathanD> coffee would be nice.
<waltman> I hardly ever make coffee in the morning during the week, but today seemed like a good day for it
<JonathanD> I'll get some at work.
<waltman> I think it was the combination of post-wedding sleepiness, plus the weather
<teddy-dbear> Morning peoples, dogs, turkeys and everything else
<waltman> This is nice having coffee in the morning before I leave for work. :)
<JonathanD> the weather is not nice.
<JonathanD> I was going to run, and it's really a cop-out, but I  stepped outside and just couldn't do it.
<JonathanD> So instead I cooked. The opposite of running :P
<waltman> You need energy to run!
<JonathanD> Perhaps tomorrow I'll have some.
<JonathanD> The coffee pot here is not functioning.
<waltman> !
<JonathanD> This may be worthy of calling off work :P
<JonathanD> Except there will be coffee there, so maybe not.
<waltman> You know who I bet will have coffee? Andy.
<jedijf> damn you waltman - i still am gonna try andy's
<JonathanD> waltman: too late, at work now.
<JonathanD> 13:19:50 < JonathanD> Just made a cup of coffee in the keurig here at work.
<JonathanD> 13:19:57 < JonathanD> Forgot to put the cup under it first.
<JonathanD> My coffee adventures so far.
<ChinnoDog> Yous were up early.
<andrew> meh
<JonathanD> Yeah.
 * waltman sets up an intravenous quintuple espresso drip for JonathanD 
<andrew> drip? Might be too slow
<waltman> Hmm, good point
<andrew> pressurize that line
<jedijf> pleia2: great wedding and all, but how the heck can you go to jim's and get the small steak? or was that a lens/perception issue?
<andrew> ha
<jedijf> lucky i didn't see that until after the wedding
<waltman> I didn't even know Jim's HAD small steaks!
<JonathanD> cheesesteaks?
<jedijf> waltman: either did/do I; that's why i though lens perspective issue
<jedijf> the damn Maine'ys may have smooshed it too
<jedijf> waltman: check pleia2's twitter/facebook - i saw it on there - looked small
<jedijf> family in philly pre-wedding fun stuff
<jedijf> i was tired; i saw it after the wedding
<waltman> http://www.flickr.com/photos/pleia2/8686889206/in/contacts/ # I think that's a proper cheesesteak
<waltman> http://www.flickr.com/photos/pleia2/8685786353/ # what's the red stuff here?
<jedijf> the first shot still looks small - but it must be the perspective and re: the red stuff; no clue
<jedijf> pleia2: if that's the new camera, send it back - makes steaks look small
<JonathanD> That would be a great review.
<JonathanD> "Camera defective, makes steaks look small"
<jedijf> and petrifies condiments
<waltman> That reminds me of a billboard I saw once -- "No one ever lost weight eating our hoagies"
<jedijf> sweet
<jedijf> JonathanD: for the record, in the lyz shot, you can neither confirn nor deny the presence of cheese - nicely played lyz!
<jedijf> that's class 6 material
<Samuraialba> Good bacon to all and to all some good bacon!

<jedijf> if you can't figure it out - stick with a gui

<ChinnoDog> jedijf: What happens on August 10th?
<MutantTurkey> bacon egg and cheeese yum
<teddy-dbear> ChinnoDog: Fosscon
<JonathanD> Fosscon!
<ChinnoDog> idk about that. We'll see.
<InHisName> After NOON guys 'n gals
<MutantTurkey> 50% of the matrix is 0.
<MutantTurkey> at least
<MutantTurkey> there is sometimes 100% 0's in a row
<MutantTurkey> so a sparse matrix internally would more efficiently allocate memory
<MutantTurkey> but i wouldn't know where to begin with an internal representation
<MutantTurkey> well... typdef struct value { int x, int y, double val };
<MutantTurkey> but how to efficiently search it? no idea
<MutantTurkey> a linked list?
<MutantTurkey> w  hoops..
<MutantTurkey> no wonder nobody responded :p
<ChinnoDog> indexes++
<MutantTurkey> heh
<waltman> MutantTurkey: most decent linear algebra systems have a way to deal with sparse matrices
<waltman> or is this for a class, so you have to implement it yourself?
<MutantTurkey> waltman: this is for work
<MutantTurkey> trying to implement it in C
<MutantTurkey> or C++
<waltman> Why are you trying to implement your own sparse matrix library instead of using one of the pre-built ones?
<waltman> NumPy can handle sparse matrices
<waltman> (btw)
<waltman> I was about to recommend newmat, but I see in its docs that it does *not* support sparse matrices.
<waltman> http://www.netlib.org/utk/people/JackDongarra/la-sw.html # knock yourself out :)
<MutantTurkey> yeah numpy rocks
<MutantTurkey> but I need to do this in C :-)

<MutantTurkey> that's the way to do it!

 * JonathanD is trying to pull this water cooling thing out of this case without much success.
<JonathanD> I cannot figure out how these things are attached in here.
<ChinnoDog> "water cooling thing"?
 * ChinnoDog waits for flood and catastrophic short circuit
<JonathanD> I have this desktop here with liquid cooling.
<JonathanD> I'm trying to strip out everything so I can use the case.
<JonathanD> Since I can't really use it as-is.
<JonathanD> and it's a nice case :P
<JonathanD> but it seems like the liquid-cooled stuff is permanently attached to the casing somehow.
<JonathanD> I think it's crowbar time.
<ChinnoDog> Hope it is still a nice case after you have taken a crowbar to it.
<JonathanD> yeah...
<JonathanD> huh
<JonathanD> Couldn't find the adapter i needed on monoprice.
<JonathanD> That may be a first.
<ChinnoDog> JonathanD: I have never shopped at Monoprice. This site is reputable?
<waltman> ChinnoDog: yes
<waltman> ChinnoDog: They made their name selling HDMI cables for a reasonable price. They've recently branched out into lots of other areas.
<waltman> They got some of the best <$10 earbuds on the market.
<JonathanD> But they don't have coax barrel connectors
<waltman> Nor good earbuds with a microphone, at least last I checked.
<MutantTurkey> I am using monoprice headphones now. They suck.
<MutantTurkey> I hate them
<MutantTurkey> they are very uncomfortable, the audio quality is junk, they are flimsy
<MutantTurkey> no sound protection
<ChinnoDog> But you paid <$10
<MutantTurkey> overall dissapointing that I have to use them until I get my real ones back
<ChinnoDog> Do they have pads on them?
<MutantTurkey> ChinnoDog: these are my roommates, 25
<MutantTurkey> ChinnoDog: they are overear- yes
<MutantTurkey> my sennheisers should be fixed by sunday though :-)

<MutantTurkey> that's all you will ever need
<waltman> MutantTurkey: when my monorpice ear buds are in my ears, even unplugged, I can barely hear the person next to me talking.
<MutantTurkey> waltman: maybe you have had better luck than me
<MutantTurkey> I can't stand these
<waltman> MutantTurkey: maybe you got different ones than I did?

<MutantTurkey> this crap
<waltman> My only complaint with the earbuds is that the cord instantly knots every time you set it down.
<waltman> It's really quite impressive.
<waltman> Half the time when you try to untangle them, you just make it worse.
<JonathanD> still have not gotte nanything out of the liquid cooled box

<ChinnoDog> My router croaked. What is the best third party firmware nowadays?
<rmg51> my power supply somehow got unplugged :-/
<ChinnoDog> "somehow"
<ChinnoDog> I blame the bear
<rmg51> never can tell what Teddy is up to
<rmg51> seems that moving things around the power cord got pulled from the brick
<rmg51> the power manager icon doesn't always show
<rmg51> didn't know anything was wrong until the laptop shut down
<rmg51> and wouldn't power back on
<ChinnoDog> Bought a new router. Refurbished Linksys E3000. Going to put DD-WRT on it soon as I get it
#ubuntu-us-pa 2013-05-05
<InHisName> I bought a NetGear 600 dual band a year ago and was told that DD-WRT works nicely on it.  The factory software is working so great, I just haven't bothered to try it out yet.  So, ChinnoDog, if you get it running, tell me how you like it.
<ChinnoDog> stock_firmware--
<ChinnoDog> I need that L7 filtering!
<ChinnoDog> It didn't matter. The router won't power on.
<ChinnoDog> The router is a refurb but only the power supply is DOA. Unfortunately I do not have a power supply that can put out the necessary 2A to run it. :-( I tested it with a 1A power supply to confirm that was the only problem.

<rmg51> I've never been a runner
<JonathanD> Sorry.

<jedijf> i should tweet that
<waltman> jedijf: At Wegmans yesterday I saw somthing called South Philly Jewish Rye. Is that you?
<jedijf> no that's solomon
<jedijf> they sold out of mine friday, did you see any JJ Cassone branded kaiser or heroes
<waltman> Good thing I didn't buy it then :)
<jedijf> south philly rye was Jerry Gluck's(rip) brand
<jedijf> Jeff solomon bought that distribution - bread is from Kaplans and 3rd and brown
<waltman> oh, Kaplans!
<jedijf> Jeff aslo owns kaplans
<waltman> Kaplans is the Jewish rye I grew up with!
<JonathanD> Kaplans sounds a lot like kalman...
<jedijf> the other was gold palace - on rockland street in onley
<waltman> My mom grew up like 2 blocks from there.
<jedijf> remember that brand - it was a bakery in the middle of a block in olney - crazy
<waltman> Her family's church is St. Anges, a small Slovak church right around the corner
<waltman> Agnes
<jedijf> they have another order in so they're hooked - you'll see pechters rye on the shelves all the time
<waltman> So you're JJ Cassone?
<jedijf> waltman: yeah, that's my Italian line
<jedijf> we became partners in 2004
<jedijf> jj was serving wawas in central and south jersey - wawa told jj that if they were present in phila market they would give them that business - we partnered up for that, then wawa went frozen about 3 years ago now
<jedijf> wawa business was crazy good - easy - great volume - great payers
<jedijf> we did 53 wawas - 110k a week, paid in 10 days -

<ChinnoDog> InHisName: Looks pretty useful. I like it.
<InHisName> ChinnoDog: I need some more jumpers for my bread boards.  are there really good priced sources that you know ?
<brill> InHisName: adafruit.com ebay.com
<InHisName> what search string is good for that on ebay ?  I hate reading 3000 entries found to find the 4 related to the real search.
<brill> breadboard jumper wire male to male
<ChinnoDog> Find an electronics store. Or go to Microcenter.
<ChinnoDog> Microcenter is the only retail outlet I've ever been able to find mini jumpers at.
<DrownedTurkey> literally all of east falls was/is  underwater
<adom> ChinnoDog: RadioShack has a bunch of circuitry.
<ChinnoDog> adom: They used to. Too much preassembled commercial garbage there now and not enough parts.
<waltman> DrownedTurkey: did all that rain wash away your mutant powers?
<ChinnoDog> Radio shack is an expensive place to buy consumer electronics and has such a limited parts collection. I don't know why anyone goes there anymore.
<DrownedTurkey> waltman: no just got wet
<waltman> ChinnoDog: maybe if you really need a resistor and can't wait for the order to arrive?
<waltman> otherwise, yeah
<ChinnoDog> Find a real electronics store?
<waltman> There aren't many real bricks and mortar electronics stores these days.
<InHisName> ChinnoDog: I liked a place in Winter Park Fla called -- Skycraft Electronics.  Above their building was a 'flying saucer' rotating at a tilt on a pole.   They sold surplus, used, and new electronics parts and equipment.  Like many other B&M places, they're probably gone too, now.   -- I think there was a place here like that,but the guy died back in the '90s and whole place got auctioned away.
<ChinnoDog> :-(
<ChinnoDog> I haven't built any electronics projects lately or I would have hunted down my local outlet.
<ChinnoDog> Reddit says it is this place: http://www.arcade-electronics.com/
<ChinnoDog> Looks like a store I would go to.
<ChinnoDog> Bookmarked.
<adom> what's that site from the guy from the podcast...

<adom> looks like a reseller sight... :/
<ChinnoDog> That looks like it is online only
<ChinnoDog> adom: We should go to Arcade.

<ChinnoDog> icey: You can say hello however you like. :-) I was curious because I /am/ on a boat.
<icey> awesome; I'd like to spend some time on a boat at some point :)
<ChinnoDog> ^ Me 5 years ago. Then pleia2 told me about living on a boat in a city. Then I was a boater wannabe for a few years. Then I learned to sail and bought a boat.
<waltman> o/~ If I had a boat, I'd sail it on the ocean / And if I had a pony, I'd ride him on my boat o/~
<ChinnoDog> Is that from a song?

<waltman> Tonight's the night I upgrade to 18.04. Wish me luck!
<rmg51> good luck
<waltman> Looks like they've gone from neomutt back to mutt.
<waltman> Starting from this version, we switch mutt to the default source package obtained on mutt.org. Due to incompatible formatting changes the previous neomutt patch became bigger than the package itself and adopting it and naming it 'mutt' was not possible because the maintainer of Mutt objected on legal grounds.
<waltman> It'll be interesting to see what that breaks.
