[00:43] <AlanBell> evening all
[00:47]  * popey tickles AlanBell
[00:51]  * AlanBell giggles
[00:52] <AlanBell> that font bug was bigger news than I thought it would be
[00:52] <AlanBell> 655305
[00:52] <AlanBell> bug 655305
[00:58] <Pendulum> AlanBell: how was the party?
[01:29] <exobuzz> how did the meetup go ?
[01:29] <exobuzz> or everyone is still out clubbing and drunk etc ? :)
[01:29] <exobuzz> or early to bed (more like heh)
[01:32] <popey> exobuzz: I am ... a bit... tiddly
[01:33] <popey> nn
[01:33] <jpds> exobuzz: We left the venue around 10:30
[01:33] <exobuzz> nice
[01:33] <exobuzz> popey, good night ?
[01:33] <exobuzz> oh. your off to bed now. sorry :)
[01:36] <jpds> A good idea.
[05:52] <Zarathustraz> Hi, could anyone recommend me to Python learning resources? I do not know any other programming languages and intend to learn basics.
[06:04] <shauno> in lieu of anyone who actually knows what they're talking about being awake, I've found http://code.google.com/edu/languages/google-python-class/  to be worth the time
[06:04] <shauno> other than that, 6am on morning after the ubuntu-uk christmas do may not be the best time to ask, so you might want to stick around a while :)
[06:05] <Zarathustraz> okay cheers for response
[06:06] <Zarathustraz> found  "think python: how to think like a computer scientist" seems good
[08:16] <danfish> good morning!
[08:16] <danfish> and an extra loud GOOD MORNING for all those who drank to excess at the xmas party last night :)
[08:18]  * AlanBell moans softly in protest at danfish
[08:20]  * danfish injects paracetamol and alkaseltzer into the channel
[08:46] <andylockran> hey guys
[08:46] <andylockran> MySQL - any ideas how to time a query from the sql commandline?
[08:47] <bigcalm> andylockran: it should tell you how long a query took to run by default
[08:48] <andylockran> bigcalm: know how to alter the precision of that?
[08:48] <andylockran> at the moment it's only to two decimal places
[08:48] <andylockran> 5 rows in set (0.88 sec)
[08:48] <andylockran> for example
[08:48] <bigcalm> andylockran: not something I've looked into
[08:53] <diplo> Seems only way is to use some perl/php or similair and microtime it ?
[08:53] <diplo> start and finish and work out the difference
[08:53] <diplo> Can't find a way in mysql itself
[08:53] <andylockran> set profiling=1
[08:53] <diplo> But doesn't increase the milisecs does it ?
[08:56] <andylockran> http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/using-new-query-profiler.html
[08:56] <andylockran>  show profiles;
[09:01] <daubers> Morning

[09:16] <Ferb> I am back
[09:16] <Phineas> horray he's back
[09:16] <Ferb> who me?
[09:17] <Phineas> yeah you, you re my brother
[09:17] <Ferb> oh yeah thats right

[09:21] <Phineas> just to let you know Ferb is my brother
[09:25] <Ferb> ive gotta go and work on the mega rolercoster bue
[09:25] <Ferb> bye
[09:25] <Phineas> bye Ferb
[09:26] <Phineas> there goes my brother
[09:36]  * Phineas detects this channel is dead
[09:38] <Phineas> yep this channel is dead alright
[09:40] <dwatkins> hiya
[09:40] <Phineas> until now
[09:40] <Phineas> hi
[09:40] <dwatkins> hi Phineas - do you use dropbox?
[09:40] <dwatkins> just curious, as I see it has a linux client
[09:41] <Phineas> dwatkins,  no i don't sorry
[09:41] <dwatkins> no worries, I'll have to actually go find some reviews of it online ;-)
[09:41] <dwatkins> http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/15-free-guides-teach-stuff/ mentioned it, and they're usually pretty savvy
[09:42] <dwatkins> also, I need to make a USB pendrive with useful stuff on it
[09:42] <Guest60001> hello guys its me majdekalel
[09:42] <dwatkins> hi Guest60001
[09:42] <dwatkins> majdekalel, that is...
[09:43] <Guest60001> i removed ubuntu and now i'm installing Backtrack4
[09:43] <Guest60001> its amazing
[09:43] <daubers> dwatkins: Dropbox is quite useful
[09:43] <dwatkins> thanks daubers
[09:43] <daubers> dwatkins: Quite a few phone clients for it too
[09:44] <Guest60001> backtrack is very close to ubuntu ?
[09:44] <dwatkins> yeah, that could be really handy in terms of storing things I might randomly need access to, daubers
[09:44] <Guest60001> is there any relation ?
[09:44] <dwatkins> What distro is backtrack based on, Guest60001?
[09:45] <diplo> ubuntu last time i tried it dwatkins
[09:45] <Guest60001> 4
[09:45] <Guest60001> i dont know !
[09:45] <Guest60001> i think its ubuntu !
[09:46] <dwatkins> What does its documentation, homepage, wikipedia entry etc. say, Guest60001?
[09:46] <Guest60001> i'm installing it right now !
[09:46] <Guest60001> when i open the doc i will tell you !
[09:46] <Guest60001> but its very close to ubuntu
[09:46] <Phineas> f@@@@ it didn't work
[09:47] <dwatkins> What didn't Phineas?
[09:48] <Phineas> firing up a pc thats about 10 years old (fail)
[09:49] <Phineas> it just doesn't wanna know
[09:49] <Phineas> boot up and turn off on a loop, thats what i get
[09:50] <dwatkins> not entirely surprising, but if you reduce it down to the essential components, perhaps a single fault will present itself
[09:50] <dwatkins> i.e. take out any PCI cards not required for booting and disconnect everything but the boot disk
[09:53] <Phineas> fingers crossed this will work
[09:54] <Phineas> bios beep, thats a good sign
[09:54] <Phineas> windows 3.1 boot screen
[09:55] <dwatkins> What did you change, Phineas?
[09:55] <Phineas> trying to boot againforced shut down automatically, now
[09:56] <Phineas> forced shut down automatically, now thers a bios beep 9not usal beep) and it restarts
[09:57] <Phineas> i didnt change anything just tried it aGAIN
[09:58] <Phineas> beep code 2-1-3
[09:58] <Phineas> 3-1-3
[09:58] <Phineas> sorry
[09:58] <Phineas> 3-1-3
[09:59] <Phineas> acording to google this means
[09:59] <Phineas> 	Master interrupt mask register failure
[10:00] <Phineas> what does this mean
[10:00] <MartijnVdS> that your interrupt controler is confused :)
[10:01] <Phineas> this could be why it all of a sudden reboots during startup (splash screen then reboot)
[10:02] <Phineas> controler IC has failed
[10:02] <MartijnVdS> yes
[10:02] <Phineas> how do i solve this
[10:02] <MartijnVdS> get a soldering iron, replace IC
[10:03] <Phineas> whats IC?
[10:03] <MartijnVdS> integrated circuit ("chip")
[10:03] <daubers> Assuming it's not a resistor or something on the board that's gone and the IC is confused because it's not getting a clear signal
[10:03] <MartijnVdS> it's either a bit of the CPU (easy to replace) or part of the mainboard
[10:03] <MartijnVdS> daubers: or one of those exploding caps
[10:03] <Phineas> how do i know what is is
[10:04] <daubers> MartijnVdS: Heh, they where fun
[10:04] <MartijnVdS> Phineas: very hard to determine unless you have a background with electronics/electronic engineering
[10:04] <Phineas> no i havnt
[10:05] <MartijnVdS> daubers: you have a strange definition of "fun" :)
[10:05] <Phineas> MartijnVdS,  you just reminded me of a pc i have to fix (something went bang = beep code)
[10:05] <kvarley> popey: I'm addicted to Minecraft
[10:05] <daubers> MartijnVdS: Anything that explodes is fun by defintion!
[10:06] <Phineas> MartijnVdS,  you just reminded me of a pc i have to fix (something went bang = beep code)
[10:06] <Phineas> anyway back to the issue
[10:06] <dwatkins> Capacitors are easy enough to replace if it's one or two, but don't try replacing all 50 on an iMac motherboard.
[10:08] <Phineas> there are loads of capacitors and stuff like that how do i know what the issue is
[10:08] <MartijnVdS> it's hard to know for sure these days
[10:08] <dwatkins> Phineas: check if any of them are bulged at the top, there's a good page on wikipedia which describes the electrolyte problem
[10:09] <dwatkins> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_plague
[10:09] <daubers> Phineas: First step is to open the machine up, carefully clean out all the dust and rubbish and see if there are any damaged components on the board (black areas on the board are a giveaway, but not necessaily visible). Sometimes you just have to sit with a multimeter and test each one in turn
[10:10] <Silver_Fox_> Hello.
[10:13] <hoover> Hello
[10:13] <Silver_Fox_> Hello hoover . How are you?
[10:13] <selinuxium> Mornign all! :)    o/
[10:13] <Silver_Fox_> Hello selinuxium . How are you?
[10:14] <selinuxium> Silver_Fox_, not bad at all thank you :)
[10:14] <selinuxium> Silver_Fox_, your good self?
[10:14] <Phineas> daubers,  found sevrial capasitors which have vented via the top and one is very slightly leaking
[10:15] <directhex_> yay! plague!
[10:16] <daubers> Phineas: Yup, You could attempt to replace them. Depending on whether the machine is worth it or not
[10:16] <daubers> Phineas: You'd need to find equivalent capacitors to replace them
[10:16] <Phineas> i don't know what type of capasitors they are
[10:17] <daubers> and then solder them on. But a lot of motherboards are multilayer, so it can be an absolute pig to get right
[10:17] <Phineas> i'll give it a try
[10:18] <daubers> There's normally a band on capacitors either giving their capacity (in uF) or a part number
[10:19] <Phineas> in the mean time i'm going to try an slightly older matchine and see if it boots (have checked stuff on circit boards, look ok)
[10:19] <Phineas> time for the count down till boot up
[10:19] <Phineas> count me down
[10:20] <Phineas> 5
[10:20] <Phineas> 4
[10:20] <Phineas> 3
[10:20] <Phineas> 2
[10:21] <Phineas> 1
[10:21] <MartijnVdS> *BOOM*
[10:21] <Phineas> boot up time ,15 year old pc no signs of bad stuff on circit board
[10:22]  * Phineas hits the power button
[10:22] <daubers> Phineas: http://www.badcaps.net/forum/ might help with the caps
[10:22] <Phineas> HOLY S@@@
[10:23] <Phineas> when i pressed the power button something went bang
[10:23] <Apacheuk> I have the opportunity of a 32" HD (full 1080p) TV, it has a VGA PC input, my question is would this work well as a monitor? I fairly certain my graphics card would be able to handle it
[10:24] <MartijnVdS> It should work
[10:24] <MartijnVdS> If it has HDMI or DVI in that would be even better
[10:24] <MartijnVdS> but plain old VGA should work
[10:24] <Phineas> damn it the pc tripped the switch
[10:24] <Phineas> what went bang?
[10:24] <Apacheuk> don't think it has DVI
[10:25] <MartijnVdS> Apacheuk: an hdtv with no hd inputs?! :)
[10:25] <MartijnVdS> Apacheuk: it should have HDMI at least
[10:25] <Apacheuk> it has 3 HDMI inputs
[10:25] <ormiret> HDMI and DVI are kind of the same - the right cabel can go from one to the other
[10:25] <MartijnVdS> Apacheuk: most new graphics cards and mainboards have HDMI out
[10:25] <Apacheuk> the way its been described to me it sounds like a standard VGA input
[10:25] <Phineas> what went bang when i pressed the power button?
[10:26] <ormiret> Phineas: whatever the smoke is now coming from?
[10:26] <Apacheuk> let me check.... need to crawl under the desk
[10:27] <Apacheuk> graphics card just has 2 DVI outputs
[10:27] <Phineas> i see no smoke, only a tiny (very tiny) amount of smoke
[10:27] <MartijnVdS> Apacheuk: You can buy DVI to HDMI converters/cables
[10:28] <Apacheuk> yeah... card is a GForce8800 GT
[10:28] <Phineas> something small went bang as everything looks intact
[10:28] <MartijnVdS> Apacheuk: the converters don't depend on the graphics card :)
[10:28] <Apacheuk> yeah, I figured that... was just mentioning the card as a side
[10:30] <Phineas> whets small in a pc and goes bang?
[10:31] <Phineas> sometimes
[10:31] <Apacheuk> OK, well thats settled then.... looks like I have a nearly *new* monitor for Christmas :)
[10:32] <Apacheuk> Phineas: thats sounds like a Christmas cracker joke :)
[10:32] <Phineas> i cant see what went bang, all looks ok, but it wont boot
[10:32] <MartijnVdS> Phineas: probably a capacitor
[10:32] <Phineas> MartijnVdS,  do they go bang?
[10:32] <dwatkins> Phineas: perhaps the powersupply tripped
[10:33] <ormiret> Phineas: if it's not booting at all tehn it's probably something in the power supply. Be careful poking at it, they can hold quite a bit of charge even after unplugged.
[10:34] <Phineas> it cant be the power suply as the motherboard has a power led which is on
[10:34] <ormiret> That only proves one rail actually has power on it.
[10:35] <Phineas> so what could it be
[10:36] <ormiret> Just about anything, this isn't really something you can figure out easilly over IRC.
[10:36] <Phineas> heres a photo of a circit board from the pc
[10:37] <Phineas> http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b9/Vp6_blown_capacitor.jpg
[10:37] <ormiret> General debugging procedure for a dead machine: remove all non-essencial components, if it still doesn't boot swap out essential components for known good ones till it does.
[10:38] <dwatkins> Phineas: I'd be tempted to recycle the PC and get a new one
[10:38] <Phineas> ok that image was of the internet
[10:38] <dwatkins> yeah, I assume yours is as bad, Phineas
[10:39] <Phineas> dwatkins,  the 10 year old pc looks like that
[10:39] <Phineas> this pc has one exploaded cap in it
[10:40] <dwatkins> yeah, Phineas, I guess you need to ask yourself if it's worth replacing the components
[10:41] <Phineas> i don't know what type of cap the one that expoaded
[10:44] <Silver_Fox_> I am fine thank you selinuxium .  :)
[10:53]  * directhex_ is cutting ties
[10:55] <dwatkins> Burning bridges, directhex_?
[10:55] <directhex_> dwatkins: wiping my office computers
[10:55] <dwatkins> sorry, just being silly
[10:55] <directhex_> the osx installer is obliterating my triple-boot imac
[10:55] <dwatkins> ooh, I want to triple-boot my Macbook
[10:56] <dwatkins> I got a windows game recently, and would like to also run a linux on it if possible
[10:57] <bigcalm> AlanBell: have you been eating popey's mincepies?
[10:58] <popey> they were AlanBells :)
[10:58] <bigcalm> Aha
[10:58] <bigcalm> Morning :)
[10:59] <bigcalm> popey: see the vid I pasted?
[10:59] <popey> no
[10:59] <bigcalm> popey: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZ5u2DsZHQs
[10:59] <Silver_Fox_> popey,  I liked your snowman
[11:02] <popey> his nose fell out
[11:02] <popey> ooo and an eye
[11:03] <popey> looking a bit sad now
[11:03] <dwatkins> aww
[11:03] <Silver_Fox_> Maybe he should get patched up ?
[11:15] <dwatkins> directhex_: I think I'd best do a complete backup first
[11:18] <directhex_> dwatkins: the only caveat with tri-booting a mac is you're limited to 4 partitions total with dodgy mac GPT/MBR duality, and one is already taken by EFI data... so you get ONE linux partition only.
[11:19] <directhex_> no /boot partition, no swap partition
[11:19] <dwatkins> directhex_: swap can live in a file, so I imagine that's ok
[11:19] <dwatkins> also, who needs swap with 4GB of RAM? ;-)
[11:20] <directhex_> dwatkins: yes swap can live in a file, well remembered
[11:20] <directhex_> and you need swap of at least the same size as ram if you want to suspend-to-disk
[11:21] <dwatkins> ah yes, although I wonder if that works on a triple-boot Mac...
[11:23] <directhex_> also, use refit not bootcamp as your boot loader
[11:23] <directhex_> chain-load grub from refit to boot linux
[11:39] <czajkowski> Aloha
[11:39] <KrisWillis> Ooo my VLC icon is wearing a santa hat
[11:40] <niall> KrisWillis, cool innit? :)
[11:40] <niall> That.. err, easter egg, has been in VLC for years and years
[11:49] <daubers> czajkowski: o/
[11:50] <daubers> czajkowski: All calmed down now you made it home?
[11:51] <czajkowski> yup
[11:51] <czajkowski> fry up being arranged now
[11:51] <czajkowski> :D
[11:51] <czajkowski> nyomy
[11:51] <daubers> \o/
[11:51] <daubers> artery clogging goodness
[11:53] <diplo> bah you are making me hungry!!!!!

[11:54] <czajkowski> fried eggs
[11:54] <czajkowski> brown bread
[11:54] <czajkowski> tea
[11:54] <czajkowski> oh some rashers as well
[11:55] <selinuxium> czajkowski, Grrr... I haven't even had brekky yet!
[11:56]  * selinuxium decides that food is now the only option... Tools down.
[12:00] <popey> anyone got a DS lite they want to sell?
[12:00] <popey> friend of mine has one that has gone pop
[12:00] <czajkowski> selinuxium: you're going to begrudge me a fry up !
[12:01] <_H> mmmm -8 and my lips are bleeding
[12:01] <_H> :/
[12:52] <dutchie> czajkowski: now you've made me want a fry up :(
[12:52]  * bigcalm grins and burps
[12:53] <davmor2> czajkowski: Yes you got to Ireland didn't you we don't need to be nice anymore :P
[12:54] <czajkowski> :)
[12:54] <czajkowski> davmor2: you'll miss my poking!
[12:56] <daubers> Hmm interesting bug
[12:56]  * bigcalm pokes minecraft and its lack of text
[12:56] <czajkowski> hmm empathy wont connect on my home connection
[12:58] <davmor2> czajkowski: what bit of empathy won't
[12:58] <czajkowski> davmor2: wont connect to my jabber client
[12:58] <MattJ> Jabber \o/
[12:58] <popey> ah MattJ
[12:59] <MattJ> Me \o/
[12:59] <popey> need to badger you about prosody at some point
[12:59] <MattJ> Badgers \o/
[12:59] <MattJ> Snow \o/
[12:59] <czajkowski> popey: how was last night ?
[12:59] <popey> i configured it as per the site and it doesn't work :(
[12:59] <SuperMatt> people hilighting matt \o/
[12:59] <MattJ> popey: define "doesn't work"?
[12:59] <popey> but I dont have time to go through it right now
[12:59] <MattJ> k
[12:59] <daubers> hooray!
[12:59] <daubers> Everyones favourite bug description
[12:59] <daubers> "Doesn't work"
[13:00] <MattJ> :)
[13:00] <popey> bah
[13:00] <popey> it didnt like my domain
[13:00] <MattJ> It should be on the list of things not to say
[13:00] <popey> i have since wiped the machine and reinstalled
[13:00] <popey> so need to start again
[13:01] <popey> the documentation did seem lacking
[13:01] <MattJ> Lies!
[13:01] <popey> someone here told me to maintain some global config file which wasnt mentioned in the doc I read
[13:02] <MattJ> The main problem I have with the Prosody docs is people not reading what's there, or expecting else there to be something that isn't there
[13:02] <MattJ> There is only one config file
[13:02] <MattJ> Oh, the Debian package splits it :(
[13:02] <MattJ> I don't like that, but I don't have any hard reason to get it changed
[13:03] <popey> I'll take another look later
[13:03] <MattJ> Ping me, I should be around
[13:03] <popey> but I _did_ read the docs
[13:03] <MattJ> or say Jabber and I'll magically appear
[13:03] <daubers> MattJ: Yeah, the debian packages moves the domains stuff out
[13:03] <popey> heh
[13:03] <popey> yeah, thats the issue I had, it didn't accept that it was the jabber server for my domain
[13:04] <MattJ> daubers: Yeah. Nominally I'm the maintainer, but I didn't do that and don't like it much
[13:04] <popey> anwway.. ater
[13:04] <MattJ> See you
[13:04]  * MattJ goes to dig some snow
[13:04] <czajkowski> davmor2: any idea
[13:04] <selinuxium> czajkowski, No my dear, I would not not even consider such an act... :)
[13:05] <czajkowski> selinuxium: :)
[13:22] <exobuzz> afternoon
[13:39] <davmor2> czajkowski: sorry any idea as to what?  Why your jabber won't connect?
[13:39] <czajkowski> aye
[13:40] <davmor2> czajkowski: Sorry not a clue I don't use jabber other than when services use it, popey is possibly a better bet for that
[13:40] <czajkowski> davmor2: cheers
[13:41]  * czajkowski pokes popey any idea ? jabber will not connect in home over here
[13:44] <davmor2> czajkowski: Where is the server?
[13:45] <MattJ> czajkowski: where to? What's the error?
[13:48] <czajkowski> davmor2: MattJ one is my gmail and one is @siriusit.co.uk neither will connect under empathy or pidgin
[13:49] <diplo> Was going to suggest pidgin, I have had nothing but issues with connectivity with empathy in last 2 releases
[13:49] <diplo> Could never find the issue to resolve it.
[13:49] <diplo> Or raise a bug as i didn't know the cause
[13:50] <davmor2> czajkowski: can you access your gmail account and can you use gtalk from the browser, also can you use gtalk on your mobile?
[13:50] <MattJ> czajkowski: sounds like a network/firewall issue then
[13:50] <czajkowski> davmor2: aye I can
[13:51] <czajkowski> MattJ: hmmm
[13:51] <czajkowski> shall poke later
[13:51] <czajkowski> thanks
[14:03] <pwuertz> numpy
[14:26] <nperry> How about some coolwhip
[15:44] <Ferb> hi Ferb here
[15:47] <Silver_Fox_> Hello Ferb
[15:48] <Ferb> I am Phineas s brother
[16:16] <Daviey> erk... popey is offline!
[16:17] <directhex> Daviey, not anymore. Xmas is saved!
[16:21] <popey> http://podcast.ubuntu-uk.org/2010/12/22/s03e23-departure-of-a-grand-old-man/
[16:21] <popey> including pantomime!
[16:29] <bigcalm> In my twitter stream, popey's re-tweet of UUPC appears before UUPC
[16:29] <popey> :)
[16:29] <bigcalm> The world is mad!
[16:30] <davmor2> bigcalm: only the twitter world, real world is way more insane
[17:17] <gr33npeace> hello all
[17:17] <gr33npeace> anyone had problems connecting to Skype?  I'm getting a "p2p connection" error... very strange
[17:18] <gr33npeace> only started this afternoon, and there haven't been any updates to my box
[17:18] <popey> 16:27:33 < jcastro> according to the internet Skype was down worldwide for 10-15 minutes
[17:19] <ubuntuuk-planet> [Ubuntu UK Podcast] S03E23  Departure of a Grand Old Man - http://podcast.ubuntu-uk.org/2010/12/22/s03e23-departure-of-a-grand-old-man/
[17:19] <gr33npeace> popey, thanks... still borked for me!!  :)  In Brasil... could be the problem?
[17:19] <popey> no idea
[17:23] <gord> oh
[17:24] <gord> that will be why skype crashed for no reason for me
[17:24] <davmor2> gord: no that's just you :P
[17:25] <gr33npeace> gord, did come back up ok?
[17:26] <gord> gr33npeace, havn't tried to start it back up yet
[17:28] <gr33npeace> gord, ok thanks... looks like their forums have fallen over as well... not boding well!
[17:33] <popey> hope it does completely
[17:34] <popey> *dies
[17:34] <gord> yeah skype isn't connecting for me, ho-hum, wanted to play some online games with friends tonight as well :(
[17:34] <matti> popey: ;]
[17:38]  * MattJ confesses, he unplugged Skype
[17:39] <dutchie> so people would use Jabber (\o/) instead?
[17:39] <MattJ> Of course \o/
[17:45] <andylockran> czajkowski: jabber uses 5222 - attempt to telnet to talk.google.com on 5222
[17:45] <andylockran> if the fw has blocked it
[17:46] <andylockran> then either disable fw or ssh proxy :p ssh -D 2345 work.server.com
[17:46] <andylockran> then set proxy to localhost:2345 socksv5 :)
[17:58] <directhex> omg omg omg omg steam sale day 3 starts any second now
[17:59] <ali1234> wow, this ubuntu software centre thing really sucks
[17:59] <ali1234> it took a really long time to install the software, then popped an error message, then claimed the software was installed
[18:00] <ali1234> so now i have no idea if the software installed properly or not, or even if the package database is even in a working state
[18:00] <ali1234> nice job, whoever coded this...
[18:00] <dutchie> filed a bug?
[18:01] <ali1234> which package should i file a bug against?
[18:01] <dutchie> software-center would be a good start
[18:01] <ali1234> where are the logs for software centre?
[18:01] <andylockran> ali1234: what package were you installing
[18:01] <ali1234> skype
[18:01] <directhex> i still use aptitude for everything
[18:02] <dutchie> i typed "aptiget" the other day
[18:02] <andylockran> ali1234: have you gone to Applications>Internet>Skype to see if it's there?
[18:02] <ali1234> no, because this machine does not have that, it is running UNR
[18:02] <andylockran> what about alt+f2 then type skype?
[18:02] <ali1234> besides, it wasn't skype that caused the error
[18:02] <ali1234> it was libasound2
[18:03] <ali1234> which apparently failed during "installArchives()"
[18:03] <andylockran> run apt-get install -f
[18:04] <ali1234> oh yeah, skype doesn't show in synaptic etc by default, because it is in the partner repo
[18:04] <andylockran> that'll check if anything is broken gets fixed
[18:04] <ali1234> it only shows up in software centre
[18:04] <ali1234> hence why i used it
[18:04] <ali1234> that and because that's what the skype installation page tells you to do (on the wiki)
[18:04] <andylockran> right - I'm to bed
[18:04] <andylockran> night
[18:04] <MattJ> nn
[18:05] <MartijnVdS> \o
[18:14] <MattJ> Gah, email is down!
[18:14] <zleap> nooooo
[18:14] <MartijnVdS> all email in the world?!
[18:14] <MattJ> All the email in the world!
[18:19] <ubuntuuk-planet> [Tony] Well, thats about all we have time for - http://tonywhitmore.co.uk/blog/2010/12/22/well-thats-about-all-we-have-time-for/
[18:26] <jacobw> is anyone else fed up of Christmas yet?
[18:28] <MartijnVdS> \o
[18:29] <gord> that tends to happen to me around october
[18:29] <MartijnVdS> gord: Christmas stuff doesn't start until mid-december here, because mid-november - early-december we have "Sinterklaas"
[18:30] <jacobw> tell us more
[18:30] <MartijnVdS> jacobw: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinterklaas
[18:34] <jacobw> interesting :)
[18:34] <MartijnVdS> gym time  :)
[18:35] <jacobw> chinese food time for me
[18:38] <neptune> what is the system call for a context switch?
[18:46] <davmor2> czajkowski: prod
[18:48] <czajkowski> davmor2: news years resolution for you, you can only poke onces a week
[18:49] <AlanBell> nice new podcast featuring 4 separate chicken noises
[18:56] <czajkowski> davmor2: well...
[19:03] <davmor2> czajkowski: That only has been once this week
[19:03] <davmor2> :P
[19:04] <davmor2> czajkowski: normally it's only once a day to annoy^^say hello :D
[19:05] <czajkowski> new rule
[19:05] <czajkowski> once a week
[19:05] <czajkowski> :)
[19:06] <ali1234> is skype still down?
[19:09] <MattJ> Hopefully
[19:31] <daubers> Evening
[19:32] <zleap> evening
[19:32] <jacobw> evening
[19:33] <jacobw> does histogram mean something different in american english?
[19:34] <daubers> jacobw: The graph?
[19:34] <jacobw> yeah..
[19:34] <gr33npeace> ali1234, think it's still down.. I can't access it
[19:35] <jacobw> cos i'm stuck on the exercise about histograms in K&R C, and the example solution on the net all appear to be bar charts
[19:35] <jacobw> solutions even
[19:37] <danfish> evening
[19:38] <danfish> any suggestions for a program to illustrate a 'framework' I'm trying to develop
[19:38] <danfish> inkscape seems overkill
[19:38] <MattJ> danfish: it's over-simplistic for some things, but I've always liked Labyrinth
[19:39] <danfish> MattJ: tx
[19:39]  * danfish installs labyrinth
[19:41]  * daubers has been given a copy of omnigraffle pro by the office to play with
[19:41] <daubers> unfortunatley not Linuxy though :(
[19:42] <danfish> MattJ: that looks spot on - thanks muchly
[19:42] <MattJ> Excellent :)
[19:46] <danfish> daubers: that does look rather nice.
[19:46] <daubers> danfish: Just installing it
[19:47] <czajkowski> danfish: any luck with your strange request about getting notifcation if people read stuff
[19:50] <danfish> czajkowski: no, not really, but it was a weird request I agree. I was just getting fustrated with people making dumb excuses for not reading important stuff
[19:50] <danfish> I'm moving stuff to alfresco in the new year, so a level of control/audit should be available
[19:51] <cr215> hello everyone...   i notice that in evolution you can view a contacts birthday in the calender but can someone tell me where to enter the contacts birthday in the first place?
[19:51] <danfish> glad you got home BTW :) I calculate your average speed to be approx 7mph btw
[19:51] <czajkowski> danfish: heh
[19:51] <czajkowski> it was unusal as in if it was a common thing everyone would use it
[19:53] <danfish> czajkowski: I see what you mean. Maybe it's an area for exploration?
[19:53] <cr215> so how is everyone this week?
[19:54] <czajkowski> danfish: well you'd have thought by now college folks would have it nailed :)
[19:54] <czajkowski> I agree it's annoying but one would hope professionals would read material you send them and not need to baby sit them
[19:55] <danfish> czajkowski: true, but 1) professionalism is being eroded I feel and 2) the rise of the lawyers - grrrrr :(
[19:58] <davmor2> czajkowski: Told you it would of been quicker to swim
[20:08] <danfish> where'd davmor2 go?
[20:08] <Azelphur> Skype down for everyone else?
[20:09] <Azelphur> I get signed in and it just shows the grey connecting icon in notification area.
[20:10] <Laney> looks like it
[20:17] <gr33npeace> Azelphur, it's been down for me all afternoon mate
[20:17] <Azelphur> fail \o/
[20:17] <gr33npeace> Azelphur, I don't even get signed it... I just get the error:  "p2p connect failed"
[20:18] <Azelphur> nice
[20:18] <gr33npeace> Azelphur, looks worldwide
[20:18] <gr33npeace> Azelphur, http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/12/22/skype/
[20:19] <daubers> danfish: Think I prefer dia from omnigraffle tbh..
[20:19] <ubuntuuk-planet> [Laura Czajkowski] Táim sa bhaile - http://www.lczajkowski.com/2010/12/22/taim-sa-bhaile/
[20:25] <danfish> daubers: I just need something that slightly more advanced than pen and paper to sketch out some ideas with mqtt/mosquitto and django
[20:31] <daubers> danfish: I see :) I used to swear by dia
[20:32] <mgdm> I've sworn at Dia
[20:32] <daubers> It has some weird quirks
[20:39] <gr33npeace> Azelphur, latest from skype: http://twitter.com/#!/Skype
[20:39] <Azelphur> \o/
[20:39] <popey> be nice if skype burned in a hole
[20:39] <popey> right, shops!
[20:40] <Azelphur> popey: indeed it would
[20:41] <gr33npeace> popey, why the skype bashing?  I'm no massive advocate, but interested where the firey hatred comes from! :)
[20:43] <Azelphur> gr33npeace: lack of Linux support?
[20:43] <gr33npeace> Azelphur, (normally) works ok here...  :)
[20:43] <Azelphur> crashes and freezes continually here
[20:43] <Azelphur> also windows is on v5, Linux is on v2
[20:44] <gr33npeace> yeah... but have you seen how it looks on windows?  with facebook feeds and all sorts... happier with the simple linux v!
[20:45] <gr33npeace> that's a point, have you made any voice calls over jabber/gtalk ?
[20:45] <MartijnVdS> gr33npeace: I HAVE
[20:45] <MartijnVdS> uhr
[20:45] <MartijnVdS> I have
[20:45] <MartijnVdS> and it works great
[20:45] <gr33npeace> ah cool... good decent sound/mic quality?
[20:46] <gr33npeace> did you call from the browser, or from empathy/pidgin?
[20:46] <MartijnVdS> empathy
[20:46] <MartijnVdS> quality was as good as could be expected from built-in laptop mic and cam
[20:46]  * TheOpenSourcerer has just done the Sainsbury's Mega shop... Fridges full. Garage acting as a larder.
[20:47] <gr33npeace> cool, will give that a shot from now on!!  Cheers MartijnVdS !
[20:49] <Guest32243> Hi is this the correct channel for help with ubuntu server
[20:49] <MartijnVdS> sure
[20:49] <MartijnVdS> ask away
[20:49] <Guest32243> I am running Ubuntu Server Oracle VBox
[20:50] <Guest32243> and it is refusing the connect to the network i have already done the normal stuff it is not playing any ideas
[20:50] <MartijnVdS> vbox = virtualbox?
[20:50] <Guest32243> ya
[20:50] <suprengr> TheOpenSourcerer: I also did a Sainsbury dance today... eency wency fridge full, anything not fitting is left in car - it's colder than fidge! oh ... beer rack now full
[20:51] <suprengr> ;)
[20:51] <MartijnVdS> Guest32243: do other guests get network?
[20:51] <Guest32243> no
[20:51] <suprengr> ...& o/ to all.... internet conxn now recovered.
[20:51] <Guest32243> i am trying to ping the 192 range on my router from ubuntu from the vbox and it is commign back with unknown host
[20:51] <MartijnVdS> Guest32243: I've never used virtualbox, but you might want to look at setting up networking/bridging properly
[20:52] <Guest32243> i am trying to ping the 192 range on my router from ubuntu from the vbox and it is commign back with unknown host
[20:52] <Guest32243> will ubuntu run on a virtual platform
[20:53] <Guest32243> has any one tried it
[20:53] <MartijnVdS> Guest32243: I've run Ubuntu on kvm, and you really need to set up networking properly
[20:53] <MartijnVdS> Guest32243: either by bridging, or by setting up routing between subnets properly
[20:53] <MartijnVdS> it won't work otherwise
[20:54] <Guest32243> ok i tried to bridge but that didnt work
[20:54] <Guest32243> still no joy
[20:54] <MartijnVdS> Guest32243: how did you try it?
[20:55] <MartijnVdS> you need to bridge the virtual interface with your "real" ethernet interface, and then set all "local" settings on the bridge interface
[20:55] <Guest32243> ya thats what i did
[20:55] <MartijnVdS> then the virtual machine will look like it's part of the local lan (like a regular machine)
[20:55] <Guest32243> ya thats what i did
[20:56] <MartijnVdS> how did you do it? some HOWTO you followed?
[20:56] <Guest32243> any other ideas
[20:56] <Guest32243> no the normal what you bridge a network and set up the ip to auto
[20:57] <Guest32243> under the bridged network interface
[20:57] <MartijnVdS> yes, and you bridged the virtual network interface (created by vbox) and eth0 together?
[20:57] <MartijnVdS> on the _host_
[20:57] <MartijnVdS> (and then just run dhclient or whatever on the guest)
[20:58] <Guest32243> eth0 my network card on my machine yes
[20:58] <MartijnVdS> have you tried sniffing around with a packet sniffer (wireshark, for example)
[20:58] <Guest32243> no
[20:58] <MartijnVdS> THat's what I'd do next
[20:58] <MartijnVdS> on the host, check which interface packets from the guest are arriving at
[20:58] <MartijnVdS> (if at all)
[20:58] <MartijnVdS> then brige eth0 and that interfac
[20:58] <MartijnVdS> probably tap0 or tun0 or something
[20:59] <Guest32243> ok i will install wireshark and see what i get
[20:59] <MartijnVdS> good luck :)
[20:59] <Guest32243> bye for now i will be on after work tomz night
[21:00] <MartijnVdS> maybe some other people (who _have_ tried vbox) will be awake then :)
[21:00] <alex24> howdy guys
[21:00] <Guest32243> ok
[21:15] <matti> ;]
[22:03] <bittin> Hi somone knows about great android websites, podcasts and forums etc?
[22:03] <dogmatic69> http://android-developers.blogspot.com/
[22:03] <jacobw> xda-developers
[23:07] <ali1234> so the skype downtime thing is on bbc news website, but not slashdot
[23:09] <AlanBell> because nothing of value was lost
[23:09] <MattJ> :)
[23:09] <ali1234> no, it's because slashdot is run by robots now
[23:11] <AlanBell> I hardly ever bother to start skype any more, nobody seems to use it
[23:12] <Yorvyk> It appears to be only used by podcasters these days
[23:12] <ali1234> i didn't realise you guys were so badly out of touch
[23:13] <ali1234> skype is heavily used by small businesses
[23:13]  * dutchie was about to point out that everyone i know is on skype
[23:13] <dutchie> big use by students phoning home/each other
[23:13] <ali1234> i mean i know you all live in linux land where video calling doesn't even work
[23:13] <dutchie> in my experience
[23:13] <ali1234> but still, it's like you have never even seen how a modern business actually operates
[23:14] <AlanBell> I have about a hundred contacts, maybe 30 or so are online most of the time, none of them use it to talk to me
[23:14] <AlanBell> I used to use it when I was a Notes developer
[23:15] <Yorvyk> I haven’t seen a business that uses it very much.
[23:15] <Laney> video calling does work
[23:16] <AlanBell> we do use it a few times a year to do video calls to my brother-in-law in the states
[23:21] <popey> we use it at work heavily as an IM system
[23:21] <popey> it's kinda frowned upon if you dont have a skype account
[23:21] <popey> even though we have microsoft communicator
[23:22] <popey> some people are firewalled off, so we use skype to get to talk to people ms communicator can't get to
[23:22] <AlanBell> the nice thing about it is that it always works through proxies and firewalls somehow
[23:22] <ali1234> that's why it is so popular - it requires zero configuration unlike SIP and all those others
[23:23] <AlanBell> I used to use it when setting up Lotus Sametime with someone at a remote site, we would install skype then use that to talk through the firewall port settings to get Sametime working
[23:23] <ali1234> even if you know how to run your own SIP - nobody who wants to call you knows how to configure their end, therefore it failed
[23:24] <AlanBell> yeah SIP is only really used from PBX to desktop then standard phone network to get to where you want to call
[23:25] <ali1234> which means you can't use it for free calls, which is the only reason to use voip in a small business
[23:25] <AlanBell> not quite the only reason
[23:26] <AlanBell> calls are cheap anyway
[23:26] <ali1234> i reckon someone figured out how to ddos the skype supernodes....
[23:28] <AlanBell> yeah, they are not really saying what the problem was at all
[23:28] <popey> sounds likely
[23:30] <AlanBell> taken offline by a problem affecting some versions of skype . . .
[23:30] <AlanBell> sounds like someone might have used the skype clients to ddos the nodes
[23:31] <ali1234> or they attacked a specific protocol version
[23:32] <ali1234> or perhaps they poisoned the supernode list somehow (putting up fake supernodes)
[23:32] <ali1234> i'm sure we'll find out tomorrow... but not from slashdot
[23:32] <AlanBell> and not from skype
[23:34] <ali1234> they may not even know yet
[23:34] <ali1234> given how distributed the system is, could be difficult to know why nodes are dying
[23:38] <hamitron> :/


[00:15] <Muligan> have an oddball on my hands here
[00:15] <Muligan> created a batch of ubuntu 22.04lts servers
[00:15] <Muligan> originally built w/a single NIC
[00:15] <Muligan> internal/LAN IP addresses set
[00:15] <Muligan> routed just fine, then added (2) more NICs
[00:16] <Muligan> programmed up the additional (2) NICs, moved default route from internal/LAN eth port, on over to WAN, same w/DNS
[00:16] <Muligan> LAN: ens160, WAN: ens192, NAS-NET: ens224
[00:17] <Muligan> I've a static route built on ens160 for internal LAN resources
[00:17] <Muligan> and <IP_ADDRESS>/0 built on the WAN interface for each VM
[00:17] <stringymail> #wikipediaisfun
[00:18] <Muligan> they route out just fine, resolve against WAN interface programmed DNS servers
[00:18] <Muligan> I can route to public WAN interfaces/IP addresses
[00:19] <Muligan> however: Failed to connect to https://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release-lts. Check your Internet connection or proxy settings
[00:20] <Muligan> I'm unable to even curl that URL
[00:20] <Muligan> apt update/upgrade works just fine however
[00:22] <Muligan> these are VMs built within vCenter
[00:22] <Muligan> what gets me is on the LAN interface (ens160), when they were initially built, they were behind a router providing dhcp
[00:23] <Muligan> the initial worker and manager VMs were cloned down the line
[00:23] <Muligan> what I spotted is the (3) manager VMs were all receiving the same IP from the DHCP service
[00:24] <Muligan> and the other (2) worker VMs were receiving the same IP as well
[00:24] <Muligan> all NICs with newly generated MAC addresses
[00:28] <Muligan> using another freshly built VM from months ago, housed within the similar WAN segment of the network, 0 issues
[00:32] <tomreyn> i'd not want to be in your shoes, but if i was, i'd try to first establish whether i'm dealing with a dhcp, routing, other network configuration or resover issue
[00:33] <tomreyn> also whether the issue is outside of the system, in terms of network gear, or inside the system
[00:33] <Muligan> dhcp is out for now
[00:33] <Muligan> I only use DHCP for the initial phase of of setup for these machines
[00:33] <Muligan> routing isn't an issue either as i've another 100 or so VMs within the same networks
[00:33] <Muligan> resolvers work just fine as they're currently serving up thousands of queries/sec
[00:35] <tomreyn> have you don some traceroutes? are the right static routes being taken for the different targets?
[00:35] <tomreyn> oh you're saying you ruled out routing, i see
[00:35] <Muligan> yea, traceroutes are all clear
[00:36] <Muligan> i can even ping cvhangelogs.ubuntu.com from involved VMs
[00:36] <tomreyn> i guess it's over my head, or the part of it i want to dedicate to this question at this point. ;) you can also try #ubuntu-server and #networking
[00:37] <Muligan> this is a very first for me
[00:37] <tomreyn> (or wait here for someone else who is more happy to)
[00:37] <Muligan> however, the only thing different with this deployment was the cloning part of said VMs
[00:37] <tomreyn> you could also inspect traffic and especially arp
[00:37] <Muligan> but you'd think that the original units that these were spawned from wouldn't have an issue
[00:39] <tomreyn> i'd make sure to both change / clone MAC addresses but also machine ids
[00:51] <Muligan> tomreyn, looking over the machine IDs, they even report differently
[00:52] <tomreyn> well, that's the only things i could think of
[00:53] <tomreyn> even though i don't expect the machine id to actually affect networking as long as the mac address can be examined
[00:53] <Muligan> ditto
[00:53] <Muligan> heh, really scratching my head on this one for sure!
[00:56] <tomreyn> Muligan: so did you tcpdump the curl request?
[01:22] <Muligan> tomreyn, crazy
[01:22] <Muligan> so just doing a tcpdump on that singular WAN interface
[01:23] <Muligan> I'm seeing a wide array or broadcast traffic as expected
[01:23] <Muligan> targeting that specific dst host, pics up the icmp traffic as well
[01:23] <Muligan> however, the curl don't do squat
[01:23] <Muligan> i think imma re-arrange my interfaces accordingly
[01:24] <Muligan> ty for the help, imma step away for the night, grab some food, etc.
[01:24] <tomreyn> good luck
[07:10] <paul424> Hello, hello, I fight to install nvidia binary blob on 14 years old laptop. The systems proceeds to the gdm.service and loads infinetly . I do use NOMODESET
[07:10] <paul424> I TRY to log to diffrent console, but that does not work.
[07:11] <paul424> that is when I press c - a  - NUMBER it immediatly jumps back to the X11 ( unstarted ) console
[07:11] <paul424> what to do ?
[07:11] <lotuspsychj3> paul424: wich ubuntu release/flavour?
[07:11] <paul424> 22
[07:11] <paul424> 22 LTS
[07:11] <lotuspsychj3> desktop?
[07:11] <paul424> yes 64 bit
[07:12] <lotuspsychj3> perhaps try a xubuntu or lubuntu on your older hardware paul424
[07:12] <paul424>  I somehow once proceeded to the console
[07:12] <lotuspsychj3> might work better then a heavier gnome
[07:12] <paul424> with very good luck
[07:12] <paul424> lotuspsychj3, know that , will try xfce4, BUT FIRST need to log to this console
[07:13] <lotuspsychj3> !tty | paul424
[07:13] <lotuspsychj3> or recoverymode with rootshell & networking enabled
[07:13] <paul424> that is when I press c - a  - NUMBER it immediatly jumps back to the X11 ( unstarted ) console
[07:13] <paul424> that is when I press c - a  - NUMBER it immediatly jumps back to the X11 ( unstarted ) console
[07:14] <paul424> I want Ubuntu , cause we use Ubuntu already at our school, and don't want to bring chaos into it.
[07:15] <paul424> recovermode seems doable ...
[07:15] <paul424> but maybe later , now I need to go, thanks lotuspsychj3 !
[07:15] <lotuspsychj3> later
[08:22] <mandem0110> I'm trying to save as much power as possible on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. In my bios I've turned off bluetooth and wifi. I've set USBS to suspend with tlp. turned off my turbo boost for my CPU and set my cpu hz to the lowest possible (1400) anything else I can do?
[08:25] <mandem0110> screen brightness is on the lowest too. and I set my refresh rate to the lowest I could (40hz)
[08:26] <StucKman> beware, 40 might not be enough and can non-literally kill your eyes
[08:27] <StucKman> fatigue them, a lot
[08:28] <StucKman> more stuff: install ublock origin and noscript on firefox. they require some fiddling on every site's first use, but removes a lot of crap you don't really need
[08:29] <mandem0110> StucKman: I've not really noticed a difference with 40 tbh. And I have AdGuard network-wide so I'm sorted on the "crap" end...
[08:29] <StucKman> right
[08:30] <StucKman> noscript might be a little too much, but I like it that way
[08:31] <mandem0110> trying to get this as low as possible: energy-rate:         3.03912 W just irc open....
[08:31] <StucKman> the other day a freind of mine was complaining about some frankly useless use of distributed cursor tracking on a page I sent him which I didn't see because of noscript
[08:31] <StucKman> mandem0110: I'm curious, how do you measure?
[08:31] <mandem0110> upower.
[08:31] <StucKman> right
[08:35] <mandem0110> oh and my laptop cpu fan is always off too.
[08:45] <imman> this author is nice for food of thought guys ... . hacking in modern era ... . https://dodoskraito.wordpress.com
[09:29] <sreve> I need to create a user that can't login with ssh but have read/write access to one given directory.   It works (eventually) if I 'modprobe ixgbe', but the module doesn't seem to load by default.  what's the correct way to do this?
[13:32] <Windy> oh, is it /etc/modules ?
[13:32] <ravage> yes
[13:32] <skraito-9day> hi all
[13:32] <skraito-9day> do you guys want to see heaven
[13:32] <skraito-9day> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SA7uXNeVRjs&t=364s
[13:33] <skraito-9day> i skraito the earthquake guy
[13:33] <Windy> ravage: heh, thanks.  Sorry, I was searching, but didn't come up with that answer until I'd already asked here.  Thanks
[13:33] <skraito-9day> has come to you
[13:33] <skraito-9day> let's shake the earth boys
[13:36] <skraito-9day> is finished is finished is finished finally it's finished
[13:36] <leftyfb> !op | skraito-9day
[13:37] <skraito-9day> amen amen amen surely surely true ... .
[13:38] <Windy> o_o
[13:44] <Windy> hmm, I added "ixgbe" on it's own line in /etc/modules, but after rebooting the interfaces aren't up until I "rmmod ixgbe" then "modprobe ixgbe".  any ideas?
[13:46] <Windy> or rather, the interfaces don't show up.
[13:54] <Windy> on a fresh boot ixgbe shows up in lsmod ...
[13:56] <lotuspsychj3> Windy: perhaps the #ubuntu-server crew can advice you on that module?
[13:56] <Windy> thanks lotuspsychj3l, I'll try it
[14:20] <OlegD> I need to cover something over my VLC full screen video
[14:21] <OlegD> I would call some images and put it to coords, but I can not find way to open smaller icons then standard image preview -> any suggestions?
[14:23] <lotuspsychj3> OlegD: cover your vlc? can you elaborate what you trying to do?
[16:15] <taylan> hey all, is there a way to make a service reload instead of restart when installing an update for it?  in this case it's php8.1-fpm and the reason I'm asking is that the last time I updated it, the restart took ages on a live system and caused significant downtime...  reload on php-fpm is supported and near-instant I believe.
[16:16] <taylan> (the issue during restart has, I think, mostly to do with the fact that my "vps" is actually a virtuozzo container on a badly over-provisioned system; I'm using an ultra-cheap crappy vps host and you get what you pay for)
[16:54] <tomreyn> taylan: to your first question: no, the outdated processes actually have to shutdown / be killed so the updated ones can take over fresh. just reloading (sighup) would not replace the (outdated) process. your issue is really this limited system you have there. i'm happy to suggest alternatives if you provide your current budget in #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:08] <taylan> according to the php fpm log, it uses execvp when I execute "systemctl reload php8.1-fpm" so I'm not sure why it would need a full restart...
[17:58] <paul424> Hello , how do I run my Ubuntu installment into recovery mode ?
[17:58] <leftyfb> !recovery | paul424
[17:59] <lotuspsychj3> paul424> Hello, hello, I fight to install nvidia binary blob on 14 years old laptop. The systems proceeds to the gdm.service and loads infinetly . I do use NOMODESET
[17:59] <lotuspsychj3> from this morning^
[18:01] <lotuspsychj3> paul424 wasnt able to get a console, so i adviced recoverymode
[18:02] <fjordlord> hello
[18:11] <lotuspsychj3> welcome fjordlord
[18:15] <fjordlord> im new on linux but its quite nice
[18:15] <lotuspsychj3> this is the ubuntu support channel here fjordlord you can ask questions around ubuntu if you like
[18:15] <lotuspsychj3> we also have chatrooms
[18:15] <lotuspsychj3> !chat
[18:16] <lotuspsychj3> welcome to the community
[18:17] <fjordlord> do you guys have tried Nicotine+?
[18:18] <lotuspsychj3> hows that related to ubuntu fjordlord
[18:18] <fjordlord> I thought it was made for ubuntu?
[18:19] <paul424> What is it ?
[18:19] <fjordlord> it is a file sharing application
[18:22] <naxil> hi
[18:24] <paul424> I download this file with the speed of 20 KB/s , why is that ? https://github.com/MeowIce/nvidia-legacy/blob/340.108/6.2/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-340.108-patched-kernel-6.2.run
[18:24] <fjordlord> hello
[18:47] <paul424> How do I get network in recovery mode ?
[18:48] <leftyfb> paul424: try running: dhclient
[18:48] <paul424> ohhhh silly me, for sure
[18:49] <paul424> How do I install the equivalent of openSuse pattern c++-programmer ?
[18:51] <Eickmeyer> paul424: build-essential might give you *most* of what you need.
[18:51] <paul424> oki thanks
[18:53] <paul424> leftyfb, okey dokey - the machine still has a problem resolving a DNS domain address.
[18:53] <Eickmeyer> paul424: Instead of patterns, apt has what are called "metapackages" which have recommended packages as soft dependencies.
[18:53] <paul424> I see
[18:53] <leftyfb> paul424: add your nameserver to /etc/resolv.conf #it'll get overridden on next boot
[18:54] <paul424> leftyfb, what's my nameserver ? the address of a router ?
[18:54] <leftyfb> if that's your nameserver, sure
[18:55] <leftyfb> if you need local resolution, then probably
[18:55] <paul424> no I need global name resolution of course
[18:56] <leftyfb> paul424: if you need local resolution, you probably need to add your router for the nameserver. If you need internet as well as local resolution, then add your router for the nameserver. If you don't care about local resolution, then add whatever public nameserver you want: <IP_ADDRESS>, <IP_ADDRESS>, <IP_ADDRESS>, etc
[19:06] <cbreak> nice, 23.10 next week. Seems like I took vacation at the right time :)
[19:12] <alicekomp> hi
[19:28] <paul424> How do I tell Ubuntu I want an xfce4 session if I cannot get to the gdm login screen ?
[19:28] <KingShark> does startx work?
[19:29] <KingShark> my bad you said xfce4
[19:29] <xangua> "startxfce4" ?
[19:29] <KingShark> xfce4-session should work
[19:29] <paul424> but I suppose the X11 server is running , but something wrong with it
[19:29] <paul424> oki will try both
[19:31] <leftyfb> paul424: at this point, it would have been quicker to reinstall from scratch and restore from backup
[19:33] <BarnabasDK> leftyfb, but you would have learned nothing :-)
[19:37] <paul424> loading out-of-tree module taints kernel module verfication failed and/or req missing
[19:37] <paul424> so hwo I could bypass that module verification thing ?
[19:40] <paul424> Tainting the kernel just means you have a binary, probably proprietary firmware blob, and when the module loads it the kernel is "tainted," meaning it's not 100 percent open source anymore.  This is quite common with a lot of firmware that's shipped in the firmware packages, and it's the price we pay to be able to use all the hardware Linux is now compatible with due to modules and firmware like this.
[19:40] <paul424> anyway the nvidia-settings doesn't start at all
[19:41] <paul424> and lsmod shows nvidia is present
[19:42] <Eickmeyer> paul424: Are you trying to load a driver from outside the Ubuntu repositories?
[19:42] <paul424> sure
[19:42] <paul424> this one https://github.com/MeowIce/nvidia-legacy/blob/340.108/6.2/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-340.108-patched-kernel-6.2.run
[19:42] <Eickmeyer> You do know that's not supported here, right?
[19:43] <Eickmeyer> Support for that is at https://github.com/MeowIce, not here.
[19:43] <paul424> O_O what ? Is there again some anti-close software crusade again, which stirred the range of Richard Stallman ?
[19:44] <Eickmeyer> We only support what's in the Ubuntu repositories. We have to draw a line somewhere on what the scope of this channel is.
[19:44] <Eickmeyer> Otherwise we'd be supporting everything.
[19:44] <Eickmeyer> FWIW, we have Nvidia drivers in the Ubuntu repos.
[19:44] <Eickmeyer> !nvidia
[19:46] <iconoclasthero> I have a laptop with 23.04 on it that was booting fine this morning (on /dev/nvme0n1p10) and I installed Rhino along side it on another partition I had created for it.
[19:46] <iconoclasthero> At first, os-prober wouldn't even see the 23.04 install that I had, because, i think i'm using btrfs and it doesn't look in the @ subvolume.
[19:46] <iconoclasthero> I mounted it via `$ mount /dev/n..10 -o subvol=@ /mnt` and ran os-prober again.  it recognized the 23.04 install, but when I tried to select it from grub, I got the error
[19:46] <iconoclasthero> "error: file `/boot/vmlinuz-6.2.0-34-generic' is not found.
[19:46] <iconoclasthero> error: you need to load the kernel first."
[19:46] <Eickmeyer> !paste | iconoclasthero
[19:46] <iconoclasthero> uh, i typed all that in just now
[19:46] <iconoclasthero> sorry
[19:47] <Eickmeyer> iconoclasthero: You almost got muted by the bot. :)
[19:47] <iconoclasthero> yeah, i saw
[19:47] <iconoclasthero> anyway, it wasn't a paste
[19:47] <iconoclasthero> i just wanted to keep my thoughts together.
[19:47] <Eickmeyer> Right, best to do it multi-line manually rather than a huge bunch of lines at once.
[19:48] <iconoclasthero> i also have another partition with archbang on it that wasn't being recoginzed by the os-prober on 22.10 or 23.04.
[19:48] <iconoclasthero> and i think that's also because of the btrfs subvolume.
[19:48] <iconoclasthero> i did not know that there was such a thing 10 minutes ago.
[19:48] <Eickmeyer> iconoclasthero: So, the big thing there is that, for security reasons, os-prober is off by default as of 22.04, so you need to go to /etc/default/grub and turn it on.
[19:48] <BarnabasDK> 340 - thats old isn't it?
[19:49] <iconoclasthero> oh it's on.
[19:49] <Eickmeyer> Hmmm....
[19:49] <Eickmeyer> Beyond that I don't know what to say.
[19:49] <iconoclasthero> you mean setting the osprober disable to false, yes, it's set that way.
[19:49] <BarnabasDK> probably will not work with newer gpus
[19:49] <Eickmeyer> BarnabasDK: ?
[19:50] <Eickmeyer> !who | BarnabasDK
[19:50] <iconoclasthero> but i ran os-prober directly and it didn't see it unless the subvolume was mounted... maybe it has to be mounted directly off the root directory (which is why /mnt worked)
[19:50] <iconoclasthero> and that might be how i can get it to see the archbang install
[19:50] <Eickmeyer> iconoclasthero: So, you're saying when you run update-grub it's not detecting it?
[19:52] <iconoclasthero> it wasn't
[19:52] <iconoclasthero> then when i mounted it using the subvol flag, it did see it
[19:52] <Eickmeyer> Oh! Interesting.
[19:53] <Eickmeyer> So, your archbang install is on a subvolume in btrfs?
[19:53] <iconoclasthero> yes.
[19:53] <iconoclasthero> well
[19:53] <iconoclasthero> i mean i guess so, the others are in subvolumes
[19:53] <iconoclasthero> including my /home
[19:54] <iconoclasthero> i'd noticed this before but it wasn't causing a problem so i didn't look into it.
[19:54] <iconoclasthero> i thought it was some new ubuntu thing, but i guess it's from btrfs
[19:54] <Eickmeyer> That might be why. By default, Ubuntu doesn't work with btrfs and I don't believe our grub scripts know to look in btrfs subvolumes.
[19:55] <Eickmeyer> It'd require some script-foo for you to make that happpen.
[19:56] <Eickmeyer> I mean, it can, but YMMV.
[19:56] <iconoclasthero> well, i take it back
[19:56] <iconoclasthero> it looks like the archbang is not on a subvolume.
[19:57] <iconoclasthero> ok.
[19:58] <iconoclasthero> so i just ran os-prober and what i have listed are
[19:58] <iconoclasthero> /dev/nv..1p1@/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootm....:Windows:efi
[19:58] <Eickmeyer> Looks like your EFI boot volume.
[19:59] <iconoclasthero> /dev/nv..1p10:Ubuntu 23.04 (23.04):Ubuntu:linux
[19:59] <Eickmeyer> There's Ubuntu.
[19:59] <iconoclasthero> /dev/nv..1p04:Arch Linux (rolling):Arch:linux
[19:59] <Eickmeyer> Archbang.
[19:59] <iconoclasthero> and that happens if i 10 mounted on /mnt
[19:59] <iconoclasthero> but, presumably only the subvolume
[20:00] <iconoclasthero> if i have it in /mnt/10 or don't mount the subvolume, osprober doesn't see it.
[20:00] <iconoclasthero> anyway, so it's seeing them when i run that or updategrub, but then grub is not doing it's grubbing.
[20:01] <Eickmeyer> And the grub from Ubuntu is what's installed, correct? (you can always run grub-install to be sure).
[20:02] <iconoclasthero> well, i think that rhino took over the /boot/efi and so now it's rhino's
[20:02] <iconoclasthero> even though grub says "ubuntu" it boots into rhino
[20:02] <Eickmeyer> You're using Rolling Rhino?
[20:02] <iconoclasthero> Rhino Linux 2023.3 - Generic (x86_64)
[20:03] <Eickmeyer> Yeah, we don't support that here.
[20:03] <Eickmeyer> That's unofficial.
[20:03] <iconoclasthero> i know, i am trying to get back to my ubuntu install.
[20:03] <Eickmeyer> Oh. I see.
[20:03] <iconoclasthero> so i started here since i want to get there.
[20:03] <Eickmeyer> Is that what's being run currently?
[20:04] <iconoclasthero> rhino is all that boots (i've never booted into windows on this machine, it may work)
[20:04] <Eickmeyer> I see.
[20:04] <iconoclasthero> when i try to select the newly-discovered-after-mounting-the-subvolume 23.04 install, grub says the thing about loading the kernel
[20:05] <Eickmeyer> I have a longshot that maybe an alternate bootloader might solve this, because the one I have in mind looks at all volumes and kernels upon run and doesn't require a preconfiguration script.
[20:05] <Eickmeyer> !info refind
[20:05] <Eickmeyer> Is refind available in Rhino?
[20:06] <iconoclasthero> probably since their package manager is a wrapper for apt and pacstall
[20:06] <Eickmeyer> Weird.
[20:06] <Eickmeyer> Try installing refind and see if you can get into your Ubuntu install from that.
[20:06] <Eickmeyer> It'll basically take-over as your default bootloader.
[20:07] <Eickmeyer> It's nice and graphical and will tell you what you're booting with the text if you pay attention.
[20:07] <iconoclasthero> so it is installed.
[20:07] <Eickmeyer> Oh!
[20:07] <iconoclasthero> and it came from apt
[20:07] <Eickmeyer> Nice.
[20:07] <Eickmeyer> Ok, so that means your EFI has an entry for it in its boot entries.
[20:08] <Eickmeyer> Just make it the default and you're all set.
[20:08] <iconoclasthero> yes, i gave it permission for that.
[20:08] <Eickmeyer> You just need to go into your EFI setup (BIOS settings) and that'll take care of it.
[20:09] <iconoclasthero> well, it booted into that by default
[20:09] <Eickmeyer> Oh cool! It should've detected every grub and every kernel available.
[20:10] <iconoclasthero> sort of
[20:10] <Eickmeyer> Everything else would be in a submenu (like old kernel versions)
[20:11] <iconoclasthero> it sees a bunch of stuff, but when i tried to boot into 23.04, it said No root device spefified.  Boot arguments must include a root= parameter.
[20:11] <Eickmeyer> Oh weird.
[20:11] <iconoclasthero> and now i;m in busybox
[20:11] <Eickmeyer> Ok, that does seem odd.
[20:11] <iconoclasthero> which was basically the same thing that i think grub was doing
[20:11] <Eickmeyer> Now we've got another situation where basically the fstab on the Ubuntu install is wrong.
[20:12] <iconoclasthero> well, refind let me into rhino ok...
[20:12] <Eickmeyer> Right, which is nice, but your Ubuntu install's fstab has a bad fstab entry for its root partition, which means it's unable to mount it.
[20:13] <iconoclasthero> the line in the 23.04 fstab is
[20:13] <Eickmeyer> Basically, it's looking for the wrong UUID.
[20:13] <iconoclasthero> UUID=x / btrfs defaults, subvol=0 0 1
[20:13] <iconoclasthero> sorry
[20:13] <iconoclasthero> subvol=@
[20:13] <Eickmeyer> I highly recommend this: https://www.supergrubdisk.org/
[20:14] <Eickmeyer> It has bailed me out of many situations similar to yours.
[20:15] <iconoclasthero> it's 12.8 MB?
[20:15] <cbreak> an other reason for me to be happy to have moved away from grub
[20:15] <Eickmeyer> iconoclasthero: Yep. It's only running grub for the most part.
[20:15] <iconoclasthero> ok.
[20:15] <Eickmeyer> cbreak: Yeah, I run refind usually.
[20:15] <iconoclasthero> i have enabled the suspend/restore
[20:16] <iconoclasthero> which means i have secure boot off, right?
[20:16] <cbreak> refind + zfsbootmenu is nice
[20:16] <Eickmeyer> iconoclasthero: That may or may not be true.
[20:16] <iconoclasthero> i think it is...
[20:16] <iconoclasthero> i remember that being part of the steps
[20:20] <iconoclasthero> i don't remember what it was, but i found something that made my gub menu look better.
[20:20] <iconoclasthero> and it did until today.
[20:21] <iconoclasthero> i figured since i wasn't on an lts anyway, i might as well try something different.  don't think i'll go to a non-lts ever again.
[20:21] <BarnabasDK> iconoclasthero, only do it if you have hw so new it lacks support in the lts
[20:22] <BarnabasDK> else, I really do not see the benefit
[20:22] <iconoclasthero> ok
[20:22] <iconoclasthero> no, i don't either
[20:23] <iconoclasthero> won't make that mistake again.
[20:23] <iconoclasthero> so i'm in super grub 2 beta
[20:23] <iconoclasthero> and the first option is detect and show boot methods
[20:23] <iconoclasthero> i don't have raid or lvm
[20:23] <iconoclasthero> i doubt i need to enable all disk drivers
[20:23] <Eickmeyer> So, iconoclasthero , grub-customizer is horrible, for future reference. I've only seen it give people headaches. Never use it.
[20:23] <iconoclasthero> i don't think that's what it was.
[20:24] <iconoclasthero> and yes, it sucks, it's never worked for me
[20:25] <iconoclasthero> might have been this: https://www.pling.com/p/1482847/
[20:27] <Eickmeyer> I mean, theming grub is one thing, but using grub-customizer to do it.
[20:27] <Eickmeyer> That's another.
[20:27] <Eickmeyer> I developed the themes for Edubuntu and Ubuntu Studio.
[20:30] <iconoclasthero> well, supergrub2 does not seem to be getting me any closer to booting that other partition.
[20:30] <iconoclasthero> what about trying to get the file it says it can't find into /boot?
[20:30] <BarnabasDK> Eickmeyer, you also themed grub?
[20:30] <BarnabasDK> seems sort of overkill to me
[20:31] <Eickmeyer> BarnabasDK: Enhanced UX. It's minimal theming.
[20:32] <Eickmeyer> iconoclasthero: The file is /etc/fstab in the Ubuntu install.
[20:33] <Eickmeyer> iconoclasthero: The UUID for the root needs to be fixed for whatever the intended root for the Ubuntu install is.
[20:34] <iconoclasthero> secure boot is off
[20:35] <iconoclasthero> let me get the fstab and lsblk and blkid into a paste
[20:35] <Eickmeyer> iconoclasthero: secure boot, in this case, is irrellevant.
[20:38] <iconoclasthero> patebin.com/QejgJXxP
[20:39] <iconoclasthero> pastebin.com/QejgJXxP
[20:40] <Eickmeyer> iconoclasthero: Which partition is supposed to be the root for Ubuntu?
[20:40] <iconoclasthero> 10
[20:40] <Eickmeyer> ok
[20:40] <iconoclasthero> you see this? UUID_SUB="79abf317-b3c7-4882-86ba-cdf4fceadb35"
[20:41] <iconoclasthero> if i can use that in fstab then i don't have to worry about the subvolume.
[20:41] <iconoclasthero> (i assume)
[20:41] <Eickmeyer> I see the problem. Yeah, I see that. Do you see the comment? "/ was on /dev/sda2 during installation" implies it was on a different partition at one point.
[20:42] <iconoclasthero> honestly, i don't remember nor do i know how that would've happened.
[20:43] <Eickmeyer> I'm not sure how to help you on this.
[20:43] <iconoclasthero> yeah
[20:43] <Eickmeyer> I know there's a reason why Ubuntu doesn't support btrfs by default and it's a "do it at your own risk" thing, but I'm not sure this is the reason.
[20:43] <iconoclasthero> what about commenting out that line in ubuntu/fstab and putting in UUID_SUB=.... in instead and trying btrfs?
[20:44] <Eickmeyer> I mean, you could try. At this point, you've got nothing to lose. You might also try searching on askubuntu.com and see if anything shows up there.
[20:45] <Eickmeyer> Be sure to comment out the line and copy it to a new line so you don't completely destroy it.
[20:45] <Eickmeyer> Or backup the fstab.
[20:57] <iconoclasthero> the secure boot thing is relevent because there are two different versions of super grub2
[20:58] <iconoclasthero> and the error i get when trying to chainload that partition is "Sorry, but we are booted via UEFI and can not load this OS. Please try booting SG2D via BIOS Compatibility Mode. Press escape to return to the menu"
[21:01] <Eickmeyer> iconoclasthero: Ah. That means it was installed with BIOS compabitility mode and not via EFI mode, which means secure boot isn't a factor, but EFI itself is a factor. Did you switch EFI off when you installed Ubuntu initially?
[21:01] <iconoclasthero> i couldn't tell you that, but when i switched to BIOS mode, it says invalid signature
[21:01] <iconoclasthero> and i was booting into UEFI mode yesterday
[21:02] <Eickmeyer> Then I seriously couldn't tell you how to get into your Ubuntu partition. The good news is that if your /home partition is separate, you've lost nothing. The bad news is, you may have to reinstall Ubuntu.

[21:22] <AliceInChainsGuy> hello
[21:23] <iconoclasthero> man in a box
[21:23] <AliceInChainsGuy> iconoclasthero: so you know AIC
[21:24] <AliceInChainsGuy> man in the box is one of my faves
[21:24] <AliceInChainsGuy> with Nutshell close behind
[21:25] <iconoclasthero> i mean, i listened to them in the early 90s but not my thing anymore
[21:25] <iconoclasthero> i had that cd
[21:25] <rubixyt> hi
[21:26] <rubixyt> what system are you using
[21:27] <rubixyt> im using manjaro, and you?
[21:28] <rubixyt> anyone?
[21:28] <Eickmeyer> !chat
[21:28] <BarnabasDK> rubixyt, I think chances are people here are using ubuntu
[21:28] <rubixyt> ok
[21:29] <rubixyt> im using manjaro
[21:29] <BarnabasDK> do you have an Ubuntu related question?
[21:29] <Eickmeyer> !manjaro
[21:29] <rubixyt> yes
[21:29] <BarnabasDK> great
[21:30] <rubixyt> whats the latest version of ubuntu, termux ubuntu, terminal tutorial in ubuntu.
[21:30] <Eickmeyer> 23.04 is the latest supported version of Ubuntu.
[21:30] <Eickmeyer> 23 is the year, 04 is the month of release.
[21:30] <Eickmeyer> 23.10 will be released on October 12.
[21:30] <iconoclasthero> so i created another menu entry using the 40_custom in /etc/grub.d
[21:31] <iconoclasthero> and i booted into ubuntu.
[21:31] <Eickmeyer> iconoclasthero: YAY!
[21:31] <AliceInChainsGuy> funny. i googled it and it said 22.04.3 was the latest ubuntu version
[21:31] <AliceInChainsGuy> i find that a little strange
[21:31] <rubixyt> yy.mm.dd
[21:31] <Eickmeyer> AliceInChainsGuy: 22.04.3 is the latest long-term-support release.
[21:32] <AliceInChainsGuy> i was just about to say that
[21:32] <rubixyt> what about the rest of my questions?
[21:32] <Eickmeyer> rubixyt: No, yy.mm.p p=point release version.
[21:32] <Eickmeyer> rubixyt: You can always check packages.ubuntu.com for that information.
[21:33] <Eickmeyer> rubixyt: But it depends on what supported version you're using, which can be either 20.04, 22.04, or 23.04.
[21:33] <BarnabasDK> rubixyt, for the last part of your q why would terminal gymnastics be different in ubuntu as opposed to your manjaro?
[21:34]  * Eickmeyer afk now
[21:35] <rubixyt> the last part in q is "terminal in ubuntu tutorial".
[21:35] <iconoclasthero> i can't get back to my old desktop though
[21:36] <BarnabasDK> rubixyt, bash is bash on linux and on freebsd
[21:37] <rubixyt> hello! ruenoak!
[21:38] <rubixyt> !online
[21:39] <rubixyt> !manjaro
[21:40] <rubixyt> 69420 is funny as same as ubuntu having a update.
[21:40] <BarnabasDK> rubixyt, there is a thousand people in this channel, if you want to fool around with ubotto I think she is on ubuntu-offtopic too
[21:51] <mirko__> i need help about a5/1
[21:53] <iconoclast_hero> So I'm going to have issues switching back and forth between these distros as long as my uid is different on the two installs, right?  how do i go about making them the same?
[21:53] <iconoclast_hero> since i'm 1000 on ubuntu and NOT 1000 on rhino, i assume i'd need to match ubuntu to what rhino has (1002??), correct?
[21:56] <Drukarex> hi
[21:58] <JanC> or vice versa, yes
[21:59] <JanC> you can also use an external user database like LDAP/AD or such
[22:01] <iconoclasthero> i don't wanna!
[22:01] <iconoclasthero> lol
[22:06] <BarnabasDK> yp to the rescue :-) but it will probably require a third machine running this somewhere
[22:13] <iconoclasthero> that looks more complicated
[22:26] <rubixyt> how do install chrome on ubuntu and manjaro?
[22:27] <jeremy31> chrome google.com
[22:32] <iconoclast_hero> mkdir -p ~/bin/src
[22:32] <iconoclast_hero> wget -O ~/bin/src/google-chrome.deb https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
[22:32] <iconoclast_hero> sudi dpkg -i ~/bin/src/google-chrome.deb
[22:33] <iconoclast_hero> sudo dpkg -i ~/bin/src/google-chrome.deb
[22:35] <BarnabasDK> yp is complicated but I know of no other unix/linux like technology that approaches the idea of distribution of users, roles and rights the way say, windows does it though the ad etc.
[22:41] <Eickmeyer> FWIW, we do not support Google Chrome here.
[22:41] <Eickmeyer> (it comes from outside of the Ubuntu repos)
[22:42]  * ravage hides all his snaps
[22:43] <Eickmeyer> ravage: You know we support the installation of snaps, just not the snaps themselves.
[22:43]  * Eickmeyer looks at all of ravage's snaps that he's made
[22:43] <ravage> just some
[22:43] <Eickmeyer> XD
[22:44] <ravage> 8 so far
[22:44]  * Eickmeyer knows who to go to for help in the future with snap development. XD
[22:44]  * ravage points to ogra
[22:45] <Eickmeyer> HAHAHAHAHAHA
[22:45] <Eickmeyer> Yeah, when I see ogra next month, I'll tell him where the fingerpointing came from. XD
[22:45] <ravage> where?
[22:45] <Eickmeyer> Ubuntu Summit
[22:46] <ravage> ah right. its not really around the corner.
[22:46] <Eickmeyer> November 3-6
[22:46] <Eickmeyer> or something like that.
[22:46] <Eickmeyer> 3-5
[22:46] <ravage> Riga is nice but im not sure i can get away from work
[22:46] <ravage> November 3rd – 5th yes
[22:46] <Eickmeyer> Totally understand. :)
