#ubuntu-ie 2011-02-22
<czajkowski> tdr112: interesting sense of humour! cheeky!
<tdr112> czajkowski: ah you got it , good stuff
<czajkowski> tdr112: I did, thanks
<tdr112> np
<slashtom> good morning
<tdr112> hey slashtom
<czajkowski> how are we all ?
<czajkowski> tdr112: but a cat!
<czajkowski> :)
<tdr112> i like cats and some day you will LOVE them too
<czajkowski> kevin in google has tried this logic before
<slashtom> cats are evil
<czajkowski> http://bit.ly/hqFGCi interesting read
<ebel> yeah
<ebel> but apple *does* ban GPL software, you can't distribute it
<ebel> "Apple should do the decent thing and ban GPL software, too. The company presently reaps rewards from allowing GPL-licensed software in the App Store, even though the company has no intention of complying with the terms of that license" !!!!
<ebel> i.e. "Apple is engaged in wilful copyright infringement"
<ebel> GPLv3 has a new clause desigend to thwart DRM
<ebel> in essence Microsoft or Apple may have to give the user all their DRM secret keys if they give them a GPLv3 programme.
<ebel> So here, the interests of Apple/Microsoft are different from the interests of authors of the GPL
<ebel> The only way to make the AppStore(s) GPL combatible is to drop DRM. Which AAPL/MSFT won't do.
<czajkowski> 12:45 < Pendulum> hey, can anyone here RT this, I don't have many followers and I'm hoping we get some good feedback http://twitter.com/#!/colona13/status/40020405666189312  :)
<VampiricPadraig> Hey #ubuntu-ie
<czajkowski> VampiricPadraig: hi
<VampiricPadraig> *waves*
<czajkowski> ebel: did someone volunteer to get cds shipped to them for this one time ?
<ebel> czajkowski: yeah airurando
<ebel> Ah I see your reply
<ebel> the canonincal end is the only bit that's not done.
<ebel> I am fine with me requesting it, and then poking people.
<czajkowski> LGMA moving to Open Sourceâ¦ http://www.lgma.ie/opensource/?p=169
<czajkowski> whooo
#ubuntu-ie 2011-02-23
<daxroc> Morning all
<czajkowski> Aloha
<ebel> morning
<czajkowski> how are we all doing ?
<slashtom> morning
 * ebel has tea!
<ebel> wonderous tea!
<slashtom> is ebel awake now?
<ebel> slashtom: moreso
<czajkowski> tea makes the day all good
<slashtom> i've just been told that i'm on the list for a new laptop
<ebel> yay!
<czajkowski> whoo
<slashtom> i already have 2 on my desk
<slashtom> soon i will be king of my cubicle!
<ebel> God FG are rubbish at the web
<terran> did you play their platformer
<czajkowski> that annoying game from hell
<czajkowski> http://www.lczajkowski.com/2011/02/23/ubuntu-global-jam-coming-soon/
 * tdr112 thinks czajkowski copyed her email into a blog post 
<czajkowski> I did
<czajkowski> tdr112: I have a lot of mails to get out these days
<czajkowski> one needs to do a bit of making my life easier!
<tdr112> cztab notting wrong with that
<czajkowski> tdr112: you free?
<czajkowski> need someone to test something for me on Ubuntu
<czajkowski> https://one.ubuntu.com/music/l/2226574/0
<czajkowski> can someone log into Ubuntu one
<czajkowski> and see if you can search for music and even buy a song?
<ebel> czajkowski: not available to paddies
<ebel> "This song is not available to buy from the Ubuntu One Music Store in your country. Sorry!"
<ebel> (Although I haven't set up an ubuntu one account, i'm not logged in and i've never bought music from it, so it /miiight/ be different if you are logged in)
<czajkowski> ebel: but you can get to one.Ubuntu.com
<czajkowski> just your launchpad ac to sign in
<ebel> czajkowski: no change after i login & signup to ubuntu one
<czajkowski> hmmm
<czajkowski> so logging a bug
<ebel> I think it's intentional
<ebel> ish
<ebel> They had to licence it from the big music labels
<czajkowski> ireland uk laws differ it seems
<ebel> I think $ETHNIC_GROUP_1 gets music from all 4 big labels
<ebel> $ETHNIC_GROUP_2 can get it from 2 labels.
<czajkowski> Ireland falls under EU
<czajkowski> so we get 2 of the 4 big labels
<czajkowski> UK differs from UK
<ebel> and $ETHNIC_GROUP_3 can get creative commons licence.
<czajkowski> UK differs from EU
<ebel> It's per country, not per EU alas.
<czajkowski> ebel: eh no,
<czajkowski> there seems to be a massive difference in what I can buy when in UK and what I can buy in EI
<ebel> yep, that's the music labels/companies for you
<slashtom> this is why piracy wins
<slashtom> you get a better product
<ebel> I think canonical (?) or 3digital (the music company) would have to do deals in all these countries with all these music companies in order to sell in ireland
<ebel> so they only do the big ones at first.
<ebel> piracy FTW
<ShaneM> slashtom: Piracy wins because people refuse to give customers what they want and instead tell them what they want.
<ShaneM> IMO anyway
<ebel> Pirated content is better from a customer point of view.
<ebel> How common now is it for films to come out much later in europe?
<ShaneM> ebel: No idea, I stopped buying movies ages ago.
<ShaneM> I haven't watched anything in like a year :P
<ebel> Avatar was released at almost the same weekend everywhere (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0499549/releaseinfo) whereas there was about a month difference in when Titanic was released (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120338/releaseinfo)
<ebel> The Lion King (1994) was released in IE ~3 months after US (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110357/releaseinfo)
<ShaneM> Haha
<ShaneM> Well be happy you don't live in central Europe
<ShaneM> Even later I would assume since it needs to be translate
<ShaneM> d
<ebel> The reason we get films in Ireland the same time as USA is because of film piracy.
<ebel> It's great!
<czajkowski> :S
<czajkowski> http://imgur.com/ZyeCO  *grin*
<ShaneM> Haha "This is flower pot"
<Belserusk> In Ubuntu 'Users and Groups' why would someone need to add themselves as a member of their own group?
<czajkowski> Belserusk: what do you mean
<czajkowski> where are you seeing this
<ebel> Moslty unneeded
<ebel> You know about unix users  & groups and the file permissions?
<czajkowski> Belserusk: ahh on the machine
<ebel> You might have a user 'ebel', and a group 'ebel'.
<ebel> And technically the user ebel is in the group of ebel
<ebel> However if it was a shared machine, you might have a group for "students" or "staff"
<ebel> so 'ebel' would be in the 'staff' group or something.
<czajkowski> nods
<Belserusk> ebel, since the user ebel has user privalges - I don't see the need for him to be a member of group ebel. Although I do see how he could be a member or 'staff' or 'students'
<ebel> if you remove the user from the group things will mostly just work
<ebel> But you have to have a 'primary group' which under modern linux tradition is that this is the same as your username
<ebel> And you are a member of that group,.
<slashtom> all files and directories are assigned to a user and a group - so your own personal files must belong to your user and *your* group
<Belserusk> slashtom, But I have this virtualbox ubuntu setup. It has a user named'ubuntu' and in this image that user is not part of group 'ubuntu' http://imgur.com/XCnMG
<Belserusk> slashtom, well?
<Belserusk> ebel, could you shed light on this/
<Belserusk> ?
<ebel> Belserusk: what does "id" on the command line say
<Belserusk> ebel, $ id
<Belserusk> uid=1000(ubuntu) gid=1000(ubuntu) groups=1000(ubuntu),4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),46(plugdev),111(lpadmin),119(admin),122(sambashare)
<ebel> There you go, you're in the group ubuntu and ubuntu is your primary group
<ebel> it says gid=XXX for the primary group
<ebel> groups=XXXX are the other groups
 * daxroc pemissions are fun
<daxroc> *permissions :D
<Belserusk> ebel, is the group 'ubuntu' in the image = uid=1000(ubuntu)?
<daxroc> Anyone have problems with java vm lately ?
<ebel> Belserusk: yes
<ebel> groups have a name 'ubuntu' and a number '1000'
<czajkowski> Belserusk: I think the confusion is you've have them the same name
<czajkowski> which isn't helping you
<czajkowski> Group Ubuntu users: Ubuntu users would be more clearer
<daxroc> more /etc/group
<Belserusk> czajkowski, I agree.
<Belserusk> ebel, uid vs gid? What do they stand for?
<daxroc> user id , group id
<ebel> user id and group id resp.
<Belserusk> resp. ?
<Belserusk> sorry, i misread
<Belserusk> Thank you ebel
<ebel> respectively :)
<Belserusk> ^_^
<ebel> when you go to that page your system will list all the groups on that system, and then give that as a list
<ebel> that's why you see the 'ubuntu' group there
<Belserusk> ebel, You explain this very well.
<czajkowski> ebel: makes a good teacher alright
<Belserusk> czajkowski, do you use a standard username when you create a Linux VDI?
<Belserusk> czajkowski, I will cease using the distro name as the username.
<Belserusk> Later ebel. Bye.
<ebel> :)

#ubuntu-ie 2011-02-25
<czajkowski> Aloha
<tdr112> morning czajkowski
<ebel> happy election day all!
 * tdr112 is going to vote in an hour or so 
<ebel> i'm going after work
<ebel> still registered to vote at my mammy's
 * ebel shall be voting based on the parties social policies.
<ebel> So essentially, labour. :P
<tdr112> slashtom: is this your first time voting in Ireland ?
<slashtom> yep
 * slashtom may vote Sinn FÃ©in - got to keep the brits out!
<czajkowski> :o
<tdr112> :)
<ebel> ;)
<tdr112> poor czajkowski no voting for her
<czajkowski> :(
<slashtom> the funny thing is, i'm entitled to vote in british elections too
<czajkowski> I am too
<ebel> Tis a shame
<czajkowski> the funny this is because I'm not in Limerick today I cant vote
<ebel> they should let people vote from abroad, the UK does it
<slashtom> however i don't use that right
<czajkowski> why not ?
<slashtom> i don't live in UK, I don't want to live in UK, so why should I vote in UK?
<czajkowski> you may want to at some point
<slashtom> maybe, but i would rather not
<slashtom> :)
<czajkowski> fair enough
<tdr112> i dont think people should vote if they are not living in the county
<czajkowski> tdr112: tell that to the 50K people who have had to leave and not by choice
<czajkowski> tdr112: 100 counteries world wide let people not living there vote
<slashtom> some countries (eg. USA) tax their ex-pats
<czajkowski> I find it annoying I've lived in ireland for 31 years and not able to vote in this election yet slashtom is there over a year and is, no offence
<tdr112> czajkowski: they had a choice
<czajkowski> tdr112: no they didn, many of my mates are in construction those who left got  work those who've stayed are on the dole.
<slashtom> czajkowski: that's only an irish/british thing
<ebel> Most FF voters are older. Most people who emigrate are young. Ergo prevent postal votes and you increase FF's share of the vote!
<tdr112> czajkowski: it is there choice to leave and try and find a job or a better live , they could have stayed , did some training/ school/ moving job type
<czajkowski> tdr112: so thats kinda annoying to hear, seeing as I tried to find a job for 7 months and did a course and still no work, others I know have stayed tried to do courses on fas and fas arent even handing out the certs.
<slashtom> i thought fÃ¡s was a joke
<slashtom> most of the people my company hired last year are immigrants
<slashtom> we struggle to find the local talent
<czajkowski> slashtom: you're an imigrant
<slashtom> aye
<slashtom> i counted myself
<tdr112> what i find is annoying is after the state , ireland has provided all thexe people free college course , that they just get up and leave cause a brain drain
<ebel> The state values the old more than the young. More benefit cuts for the young, much less for the old.
<tdr112> ebel: thats true , the old have a lot of power
<ebel> cf.  state pension vs. jobseekers allowance for <25sz
<ebel> that's mostly cause elderly people vote more, right?
<ebel> I would support compulsary voting, and a none-of-the-above option
<tdr112> ebel: na , i would not like that
<moylan> if there were cumpulsory voting they would have to have voting which allowed more college students to vote.  like voting on sundays when students are at home rather than at college.
<ebel> yeah, the current 'election on a weekday' disproportionally affects young people.
<ebel> saturday voting for all.
<moylan> sunday would be better
<ebel> Another option: no compulsary voting, but rather than using the votes cast, use the number of people who could have voted.
<ebel> e.g. if there's a 4 seater constituancy, and 50% turn out, then only 2 seats are elected.
<moylan> many people aren't registered to vote.
<ebel> TDs would then be incentivised to increase the turn out as much as possible.
<moylan> the only flaw with that is that tds would have to pass a law which would require them to work harder.  what are the odds? :-)
<daxroc> have a good weekend all
<Tigerplug292> evening all
<moylan> belated hu
<moylan> whoops, belated hi
<ShaneM> Hey where do the latin translator meet?  https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/maverick/+lang/la
<ShaneM> mailing list?
<ShaneM> Because there doesn't seem to be an irc room
<ShaneM> czajkowski: You know where I could check?
<czajkowski> well latn is spoken by lots of people
<czajkowski> it's an old language
<czajkowski> so not sure tbh
<ShaneM> czajkowski: I know someone who wants to help do some translations
<ShaneM> But they don't know where to find info.
<czajkowski> mail david plannela directly
<czajkowski> he leads the translations team
<czajkowski> https://launchpad.net/~dpm
<ShaneM> ok! :)
<ShaneM> Thanks

<daxroc> Morning
<daxroc> Anyone use heartbeat+pacemaker here ?
<Tigerplug292> evening all
<Tigerplug292> Just wondering how I can get involved in Ubuntu-ie ?
<ebel> Hello
<ebel> Tigerplug292: well we're quite an ad-hoc group
<ebel> Tigerplug292: we hold regular events, e.g. Ubuntu hours every month, we'll have a release party soon
<ebel> and regular events aswell
<ebel> we did bowling recently.
<Tigerplug292> cool - I'll keep an eye here :-)
<Tigerplug292> I need much more exposure to Linux for my field so I'm guessing this will be a good start :-)
<ebel> we have a mailing list aswell
<ebel> and regular monthly IRC meetings where we plan events and such
<ebel> whereabouts in the country are you?

<tdr112> *here
<airurando> saw that.. snowboarding wasn't it?
<tdr112> yep , good fun
<airurando> I contacted Cathal Garvey of Nexus Cork regarding the possibility of that Makerspace hosting linux workshops during the Cork Life Long Learning Festival at the end of March.
<airurando> fingers crossed some of the guys there will be up for it.
<tdr112> ya i saw that on their mailing list
<airurando> it would be a great way of using up the remaining 11.10 CDs, promoting Nexus Cork and promoting Ubuntu.
<airurando> win win win.
<czajkowski> sounds like a great idea
<airurando> hi czajkowski
<czajkowski> hows folks?
<czajkowski> week 2 of Canonical :)

<czajkowski> I bounced around for a few days as you can imagine
<czajkowski> so no UGJ in .ie or happening on a different weekend or online?
<airurando> czajkowski: likely there will be one in limerick (infoturtle to publish it soon)
<airurando> not sure about Galway.
<tdr112> czajkowski: well done i did not hear
<airurando> likely none for Dub with those in Dub and elsewhere hanging out with infoturtle on Google plus.

<czajkowski> Launchpad support specialist
<czajkowski> so working on the product team
<delcoyote> hi all

#ubuntu-ie 2012-02-21
<czajkowski> http://www.lczajkowski.com/2012/02/21/new-year-got-off-to-a-good-start/
<airurando> only just getting used to unity (I am slow to change)
<airurando> I am aware of global menus
<airurando> but I'm only seeing 'close-min-max boxes' on some of my applications under 12.04
<airurando> is this right?
<airurando> I've seen this with X-chat gnome and thunderbird primarily
<airurando> no top bar to move a window around on the screen
<airurando> I can grab the top bar in firefox to move the window around but again no 'close-min-max boxes' available.
<airurando> advice anyone?
<slashtommy> airurando: i think everyone is shying away from Unity
<airurando> I know slashtommy but I really want to give it a go
 * slashtommy is still using 10.04 here at work
 * airurando is also using 10.04 on his desktop
<tdr112> just using ubuntu servers , windows dev laptop :(
<airurando> not to worry I'll plod along
 * ebel uses unity
<slashtommy> there's such a thing as "windows dev"?
<czajkowski> airurando: not sure you should be seeing that
<czajkowski> but I do know a bug has been filed about some window issue i saw it earlier on from alanbell
<czajkowski> am loving HUD
<ebel> slashtommy: parse error. (windows (dev laptop))
<ebel> as opposed to ((windows dev) laptop)
<slashtommy> hehe
<airurando> installing many many updates and a 'partial upgrade' now on 12.04.
<airurando> see it that makes any difference
<airurando> nope

 * slashtommy doesn't fit into most adult clothing, despite being presidential size
<slashtommy> didn't you see the link from the facebook event - ties are banned
<slashtommy> as is confetti
<czajkowski> oh I did see the confetti
<czajkowski> missed the tie bit
<czajkowski> well ties dont tend to suit me
<czajkowski> please wearing one from the age of  4 to 17 put me off them
<slashtommy> they could be a strangulation hazard around the animals
<czajkowski> nods
<ebel> you wore ties in school?
<slashtommy> we're hoping to get in with the elephants for some photos
<czajkowski> slashtommy: ohhh sweet
<czajkowski> ebel: yup
 * slashtommy had to wear a tie and a blazer to school
<czajkowski> I also wore a pinnafore and blazer from 4-12
<czajkowski> wore shirt tie floor length skirt and blazer from 12 -17
<slashtommy> i'm using the wedding as an excuse to buy a well fitting suit
<ebel> apparently some people getting married request that women wear dresses
<slashtommy> stuff off the rack is far too big for me
<slashtommy> oh yes, czajkowski - wear what you're comfortable with
<ebel> *plus* we can have a suit for a few years
<czajkowski> nods makes sense
<slashtommy> and we will need them the following month for a wedding in kerry
<ebel> yeah, no dresses if you don't want dresses
<czajkowski> quite frankly your day wear what ever ye want
<czajkowski> me I love dresses :) come summer time usually live in em
<czajkowski> :)
<slashtommy> you will also get to see the fancy pub in the 'batter
<czajkowski> hmm just realised I could be at UDS :/
<czajkowski> bugger

<infoturtle> thethomaseffect you still up for helping spruce up the site? if you can't it's cool, just asking
<thethomaseffect> I have no time these days really, my laptop went missing so I'm in college all the time working on projects, final year and all that
<thethomaseffect> I'll have time at easter break but that seems so long away
<infoturtle> ah no hassle, I just started work on it and just wanted to know if you wanted in, I'll keep tippin' away at it
<slashtommy> the ubuntu hour was a little quiet again
<thelodger> how often is it held?
<slashtommy> it's held whenever anyone calls one
<tdr112> ah we had a nice chat
<infoturtle> Is Dublin having a UGJ the weekend (or anytime)?
#ubuntu-ie 2013-02-18

<czajkowski> wasnt sure if it was too much
<czajkowski> or worth doing
<airurando> liked it
<airurando> go a bit of discussion going also whick is great
<czajkowski> nods
<airurando> no mention of the UGJ yet here though
<airurando> are we skipping it?
<czajkowski> not heard maybe UL might run one
<airurando> not enough interest
<czajkowski> maybe not tbh
<airurando> maybe
<czajkowski> and it;s ok

<airurando> need geeky members to participate
<airurando> hongout sounds good
<czajkowski> you got the leg up at home relaxing ;p
<airurando> sick of it
<airurando> i'm evening finding twitter and facebook boring
<airurando> too much time too little content
<czajkowski> G+ ?
<airurando> resorting to books
<airurando> yip i look in on G+ now and then
<airurando> never really took to it
<czajkowski> it's good if you follow interesting pepople
<airurando> don't know why
<czajkowski> it can get very nosiy fast if you follow certain people
<czajkowski> but it's really good to see discussions there tbh
<czajkowski> I use that more than Fb
<czajkowski> and use fb for mates tbh
<czajkowski> and the odd bit of oss
<airurando> aye
<airurando> well i have the time
<airurando> ill give it another go.
<czajkowski> airurando: you could start your wiki application for membership

<czajkowski> ther is a project for you
<zmoylan> irc, twitter, ideniti.ca, email and rss are my time wasters.  plus flash based games
<zmoylan> otherwise i'd go bonkers.  or bonkerers as it were :-)
<czajkowski> dont like identi.ca
<czajkowski> airurando: rght you have till tomorrow to get the basics on a wiki page and come back to us
<czajkowski> no excuses
<airurando> :-)
<airurando> hi zmoylan
<zmoylan> welcome to the pegleg channel :-)
<airurando> :-)
<airurando> I hope it doesn't come to that zmoylan
<zmoylan> think of all the fun you can now have with metal plates and airline security :-p
<airurando> yeah, not quite sure what the procedure is around that
<zmoylan> and extra fun when you get an mri
<czajkowski> mri--
<zmoylan> magnetic resonance imaging at the hospital.  uses magnets.  big honking magnets.  metal implants play havoc.
