[07:33] <cbx33> ping burgundavia pm
[07:34] <Burgundavia> got it
[07:51] <cbx33> Burgundavia, are you identified?
[07:52] <Burgundavia> nope
[07:52] <Burgundavia> hmm
[07:58] <LaserJock> hi cbx33
[07:59] <cbx33> hey Las
[07:59] <cbx33> erJock
[08:20] <Burgundavia> hey LaserJock
[08:20] <LaserJock> how's it going Corey?
[08:22] <Burgundavia> work is crazy busy
[08:22] <Burgundavia> and I get to rip out all the Ubuntu I have installed
[08:22] <Burgundavia> because it is not "maintainable"
[08:23] <Burgundavia> my kingdom for ltsp
[08:27] <LaserJock> hehe
[08:27] <LaserJock> poor Burgundavia
[08:28] <Burgundavia> apparently "we are going to use DiscoverStation and NetworkPersonalizer internally"
[08:28] <Burgundavia> right
[08:28] <Burgundavia> oh, and userful is hiring
[08:30] <LaserJock> hehe
[08:31] <LaserJock> well, Canonical is making everybody use Feisty internally I think
[08:32] <LaserJock> although maybe not quite yet
[08:32] <Burgundavia> really? they are running prerelease on a product system?
[08:32] <Burgundavia> I can see running it once it is stable
[08:32] <LaserJock> I think they might force it at Beta
[08:32] <LaserJock> I saw Mark telling the LP guys to get prepared
[08:33] <LaserJock> as a way of getting bugs worked out I guess
[08:33] <Burgundavia> right
[08:33] <Burgundavia> seems sane for some, but others not so much
[08:34] <Burgundavia> I am fairly conservative when it comes to product machines
[08:34] <Burgundavia> production machines, rather
[08:35] <Burgundavia> the whole office runs dapper for this very reason
[08:36] <LaserJock> I don't have any dapper or edgy machines anymore
[08:36] <LaserJock> only Feisty
[08:36] <LaserJock> although it's a pain for SRUs
[08:37] <Burgundavia> having the dapper machines at work has been a good wakeup call
[08:37] <Burgundavia> otherwise I would have no dapper machiens either
[10:17] <cbx33> ping ogra can I force a screen resoultion for computers
[10:17] <cbx33> I want to force 1024x768 on ALL machines
[10:17] <cbx33> I know they can handle it
[11:53] <SewenSins> hello everybody
[11:54] <SewenSins> i have a small question: Why cant i use beryl effects on a terminal even if the client has a nvidia gfx-card like the server
[11:55] <SewenSins> or how should one configure st like this?
[11:57] <SewenSins> i actually know of both cards that they each on its own ...are capable of displaying the nice effects but over tzhe network as running ltsp it doesnt function
[11:59] <SewenSins> okay... that will be it for now...i ll idle a bit an wait for someone to private click me and maybe make a fine suggestion :) lookin 4ward
[03:55] <cliebow> anyone know if feisty will still go on ppc?
[04:38] <rockprincess> howdy friends!
[04:40] <edubuntugirl> hello rockprincess!!!
[04:40] <rockprincess> hello edubuntugirl ;)
[04:41] <highvoltage> howzit going?
[04:42] <rockprincess> i'm cool :) edubuntu and the thinclients are running smoothly :) i can't ask for more i guess :D
[04:45] <rockprincess> hmmm can i install schooltool on kubuntu edgy as well?
[04:48] <bddebian> Heya
[04:48] <rockprincess> howdy bddebian ;)
[04:49] <bddebian> Good morning your highness! :-)
[04:49] <rockprincess> hehe ;)
[04:58] <highvoltage> rockprincess: yep. apt-get install schooltool :)
[04:59] <rockprincess> thank you, highvoltage ;)
[05:03] <jsgotangco> hey highvoltage
[05:03] <jsgotangco> how's it going
[05:03] <highvoltage> going great, and you jsgotangco?
[05:04] <highvoltage> working on government stuff at the moment, quite challenging
[05:04] <jsgotangco> not bad just past midnight here and just listening to some nerdcore music
[05:06] <jsgotangco> highvoltage: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fow7iUaKrq4
[05:09] <cbx33> jsgotangco, don't suppose you know who's looking after GSoC this year?
[05:10] <jsgotangco> cbx33: no idea yet, besides, projects are still submitting for inclusion. Probably doko will handle it again, or another guy like RichEd
[05:11] <jsgotangco> do you want to mentor?
[05:11] <cbx33> yes
[05:11] <cbx33> and I have a student
[05:13] <jsgotangco> cbx33: well if the selection mechanism would be the same again, the student has to propose it then the mentors will have to vote for it
[05:13] <cbx33> so basically he needs to come up ith a project?
[05:13] <cbx33> how do I become a mentor?
[05:14] <jsgotangco> cbx33: yes the project is supposed to be the student's, not exactly yours ;-)
[05:14] <cbx33> of course not ;)
[05:17] <jsgotangco> but he'll be fighting out with like 200+ applications or probably even more
[05:22] <cbx33> yikes
[05:22] <cbx33> but for edubuntu
[05:22] <cbx33> likely to be better chance right?
[05:23] <jsgotangco> yeah
[05:24] <jsgotangco> edubuntu can probably allocate 2 specific projects
[05:24] <jsgotangco> cbx33: looking at the student proposals alone can be a funny experience
[05:25] <cbx33> so if I wanted to be a mentor....
[05:25] <cbx33> who would i talk to doko?
[05:25] <jsgotangco> just wait for the announcement, i have no idea who will be handling it or if ubuntu will even join SoC this year
[05:26] <cbx33> ok
[05:26] <jsgotangco> ubuntu probably will anyways
[05:26] <cbx33> i think they may not
[05:27] <cbx33> deadline is getting pretty close apparently
[05:27] <jsgotangco> because bazaar is already discussing it on the ML
[05:28] <cbx33> oh
[05:29] <jsgotangco> mentoring organization applications started only 4 days ago
[05:31] <jsgotangco> We are currently accepting applications from open source organizations. The list of selected organizations will be show here on March 14th.
[05:33] <jsgotangco> oh well goodnight anyways
[05:33] <jsgotangco> ciao
[05:45] <ogra_> cbx33, doko and Keybuk are doing SoC this time round
[05:45] <cbx33> cool
[05:45] <cbx33> thanks ogra
[05:45] <cbx33> ogra_, while you're here
[05:45] <cbx33> anyway to force screen res for LTSP clients?
[05:45] <ogra_> i'm not :)
[05:46] <cbx33> doh
[05:46] <ogra_> look up X_HORZSYNC and X_VERTREFRESH
[05:46] <cbx33> thakns
[05:46] <ogra_> in the ltsp-client docs
[07:00] <cliebow> anyone knoew if feisty will install on ppc..and build a chroot..or is it orphaned at edgy
[07:07] <Laser_away> cliebow: what do you mean?
[07:53] <cliebow> Laser_away: i know intentions are to give up onsupporting ppc..will there be feisty for ppc or is that a dead end?
[07:53] <cliebow> ltsp/muekow in pasrticular
[08:12] <LaserJock> cliebow_: it's not unsupported, just community supported
[08:12] <LaserJock> cliebow_: there will be Feisty ppc .isos as far as I know
[08:30] <student> I need help
[08:31] <mrwizard14> my menu bar is no longer showing up
[08:31] <mrwizard14> and I need it for my school assignment
[08:32] <mrwizard14> our school computers are broken
[08:33] <mrwizard14> and I need to get my document in
[08:33] <mrwizard14> or i fail
[08:33] <LaserJock> mrwizard14: you are using Edubuntu?
[08:33] <mrwizard14> yes
[08:33] <LaserJock> do you have a panel at all?
[08:33] <mrwizard14> nope
[08:34] <LaserJock> hit Alt-F2
[08:34] <LaserJock> and type gnome-panel
[08:34] <mrwizard14> it gives a wierd message
[08:34] <mrwizard14> and fails
[08:34] <mrwizard14> the panel is the top menu bar, right?
[08:34] <LaserJock> yeah
[08:35] <LaserJock> is there a bottom one?
[08:35] <mrwizard14> yes
[08:35] <mrwizard14> it says it's already running
[08:35] <mrwizard14> but i can
[08:35] <LaserJock> ok
[08:35] <mrwizard14> *cant see it
[08:35] <LaserJock> can you right click on the bottom panel
[08:36] <mrwizard14> yes
[08:36] <LaserJock> is there a "New Panel" option?
[08:36] <mrwizard14> yes
[08:37] <LaserJock> hit that
[08:37] <LaserJock> where does the new panel show up?
[08:37] <mrwizard14> ok
[08:37] <mrwizard14> the top
[08:37] <mrwizard14> but it's empty
[08:38] <LaserJock> ok
[08:38] <LaserJock> now right click on the top panel and hit "Add to Panel"
[08:38] <mrwizard14> ok
[08:39] <LaserJock> down at the bottom there should be a "Menu Bar" item
[08:39] <mrwizard14> ok
[08:39] <mrwizard14> drag it in?
[08:39] <LaserJock> just click on it
[08:39] <mrwizard14> ok
[08:40] <mrwizard14> the panels huge, though
[08:40] <LaserJock> and hit the "Add" button down at the bottom
[08:40] <LaserJock> ok, so right click on the panel and hit "Properties"
[08:40] <mrwizard14> ok
[08:41] <LaserJock> you can adjust the size in there
[08:41] <mrwizard14> what is it normally at?
[08:41] <LaserJock> hmm, I have mine at 24
[08:41] <LaserJock> although that's fairly small
[08:41] <mrwizard14> it's the same as the others
[08:41] <LaserJock> I think the default is somewhere between 24-32
[08:41] <mrwizard14> thx
[08:42] <LaserJock> I'm not sure why you panel got deleted in the first place
[08:42] <mrwizard14> someone was messing around with IM
[08:42] <mrwizard14> and didn't wanna get caught
[08:42] <mrwizard14> it's a school comp
[08:42] <LaserJock> hmm
[08:43] <mrwizard14> i found it out when they freeaked out
[08:43] <mrwizard14> they're windows people
[08:43] <mrwizard14> I am not a windows dude
[08:43] <LaserJock> mrwizard14: you might want to mention to the comp admin too look into pessulus or sabayon :-)
[08:43] <mrwizard14> huh?
[08:43] <mrwizard14> I'm used to unix
[08:44] <mrwizard14> from inside Mac OS X
[08:44] <mrwizard14> the terminal thingie
[08:44] <LaserJock> pessulus and sabayon are for locking down the computers
[08:44] <mrwizard14> i c
[08:44] <LaserJock> so people don't mess with stuff too much
[08:44] <mrwizard14> the teachers would get pretty pissed
[08:44] <mrwizard14> i c
[08:44] <mrwizard14> can i lock to panel?
[08:45] <LaserJock> well, you can lock items to the panel
[08:45] <LaserJock> but you can't really lock the panel itself without using one of these tools
[08:45] <mrwizard14> i c
[08:45] <mrwizard14> so do i google that?
[08:46] <mrwizard14> I'm a unix/linux n00b
[08:46] <mrwizard14> a 12 year old
[08:48] <mrwizard14> so how do i run programs that i download using http?
[08:48] <LaserJock> mrwizard14: yeah, you can google those if you want
[08:48] <LaserJock> mrwizard14: well, generally you shouldn't need to
[08:49] <LaserJock> the Ubuntu software repositories have most everything you'll need
[08:49] <mrwizard14> but I am trying to dun DeSMuMe on OS X
[08:49] <mrwizard14> and it's a Unix app
[08:50] <LaserJock> mrwizard14: you want it in Edubuntu or OS X?
[08:50] <mrwizard14> OS X
[08:52] <LaserJock> looks like it is only a Windows app to me
[08:53] <mrwizard14> it is unix
[08:54] <mrwizard14> i checked
[08:54] <LaserJock> mrwizard14: "DeSmuME is also known as YopYop DS is written in C++ for Microsoft Windows" and the download give a .exe
[08:55] <mrwizard14> http://forums.emuscene.com/viewtopic.php?t=3156
[08:55] <mrwizard14> Hi all,
[08:55] <mrwizard14> Desmume is a linux DS emulator. It is currently not perfect, and there is no many games that run correctly but, it's a real technical performance.
[08:55] <mrwizard14> quote
[08:56] <mrwizard14> there's a french tutorial
[08:56] <mrwizard14> but it needs translating
[08:56] <LaserJock> hehe, they need to work on URLs
[08:56] <LaserJock> http://www.desmume.com is for windows and http://www.desmume.org is apparently for Linux
[08:57] <mrwizard14> wow
[08:57] <mrwizard14> lol
[08:57] <mrwizard14> *laguing
[08:57] <mrwizard14> *laughing
[08:59] <LaserJock> mrwizard14: well, this is very offtopic for this channel, but in general it looks like you can follow that translated version
[08:59] <mrwizard14> try the DCC chat
[08:59] <mrwizard14> cuz it is off-topic
[09:00] <LaserJock> just follow the directions on the forum thread you gave me
[09:01] <mrwizard14> but those are for intel, and I'm powerPC
[09:01] <mrwizard14> it's actually a serious difference
[10:04] <cliebow_> LaserJock:thank you...crawling back to my hole again..
[10:37] <LaserJock> heh
