| fujin | Heh, It's becoming impossible to find an answer in #ubuntu, and it's kinda development related - anyone able to tell me what I need to do to add a package to my local repository? I've created a full feisty mirror with apt-mirror, and now wanna setup another mirror for my handrolled packages | 02:00 |
| BigPick | Got me there. I've never done a repo. | 02:01 |
| fujin | Blast. | 02:02 |
| fujin | We've done one here to save traffic, 50~ or so Ubu boxes. | 02:02 |
| fujin | and I figured I'd be able to hand-roll packages and toss them in, but that didn't work | 02:02 |
| fujin | so there must be some kind of package signing/cache indexing or something | 02:02 |
| slangasek | apt-ftparchive | 02:03 |
| slangasek | I don't think that does signing, so if you want a gpg-signed repo that's an additional step | 02:03 |
| fujin | ah, I don't think I've got a signed repo | 02:04 |
| fujin | unless apt-mirror automagically generated a key | 02:06 |
| slangasek | apt-mirror should copy the signature from the original mirror | 02:07 |
| fujin | oh. blast. | 02:07 |
| fujin | I assume what I'm trying to do will involve creating an entirely new mirror, to provide overrides to the packages in my apt-mirror | 02:07 |
| slangasek | that would probably be best | 02:07 |
| fujin | Indeed. | 02:07 |
| fujin | Are you aware of any documentation explaining how to do such a thing? | 02:07 |
| slangasek | other than apt-ftparchive, not really? pretty off-topic for this channel by this point, though | 02:08 |
| fujin | Arg. | 02:08 |
| fujin | well, thanks. Sorry for breaking the topic | 02:08 |
| fujin | Ah, Think I found something concering apt-ftparchive and moreso how to use it. Thanks slangasek :) | 02:10 |

| ajmitch | still in main, but appears to not be dragged in | 03:14 |
| * ajmitch should happily purge it thrn | 03:14 | |
| Hobbsee | ajmitch: yeah, we did for tribe 4, iirc. | 03:14 |
| ajmitch | I wonder how many others have it installed still | 03:14 |
| StevenK | I think my machine purged it during the upgrade. | 03:14 |
| ajmitch | my laptop hasn't, sadly | 03:15 |
| * ajmitch had to ssh in & kill it this morning in order to get a desktop running | 03:15 | |
| ajmitch | I wonder if it can be demoted to universe for hardy | 03:16 |
| Burgundavia | if upstream goes with PA, then we shoudl proably go the same way | 03:16 |
| * TheMuso wonders whether the PA issues that are holding it back are fixed. | 03:19 | |
| StevenK | Aren't the PA issues that are holding it back called "upstream" ? | 03:21 |
| TheMuso | Yes, and according to pitti, they are fixed. | 03:23 |
| StevenK | As in, upstream themselves. :-) | 03:24 |

| Hobbsee | pitti: yes. is esound ever going to make it back onto the cds? | 08:55 |
| pitti | Hobbsee: over my dead cold body, I hope | 08:55 |

| tfheen | pitti: well, as we say, that can be arranged. | 08:56 |
| tfheen | ;-P | 08:56 |
| Hobbsee | pitti: good. then is there any point of keeping the gstreamer plugin for esd on all the cds? | 08:56 |
| chowmeined | adop: sure its not video? | 08:57 |
| Hobbsee | pitti: unfortunately, i'ts only 39kb, but you might want it nuked anyway :) | 08:57 |
| pitti | Hobbsee: contrary to other things, size does *not* matter here :) | 08:58 |
| Hobbsee | pitti: oh, why not? | 08:59 |
| pitti | Hobbsee: esd is a horribly broken evilness | 08:59 |
| Hobbsee | pitti: end question - can i nuke it off the -desktops? :D | 08:59 |
| pitti | Hobbsee: it often causes desktop lockups, bad A/V desynchronization on video playback, and other nastinesses | 08:59 |
| Hobbsee | i know esd is otherwise evil, yes ;) | 08:59 |
| StevenK | And so is evms, coincedence? | 08:59 |
| * Hobbsee did a whole bunch of ubuntu-meta bug triage today, you see. | 08:59 | |
| pitti | Hobbsee: yeah, I don't see a reason to keep the gstreamer backend, but that isn't packaged separately, is it? | 08:59 |
| Hobbsee | pitti: it's seeded separately | 09:00 |
| adop | chowmeined, pretty sure, since the hdd led stays lit, and after i reset the bios says it cannot find a hd. I have to turn off the machine and then back on to be able to boot again | 09:00 |

| StevenK | But they shouldn't. | 09:10 |
| StevenK | They might be common packages, but they're all desktop. | 09:11 |

| slangasek | where are you stuck? | 09:51 |
| soren | Nowhere in particular. | 09:51 |
| slangasek | ok :) | 09:51 |
| soren | I just don't follow recipes very well. | 09:51 |
| soren | I need to understand stuff first. | 09:52 |
| soren | Especially when the howto in question doesn't exactly deal with the problem, I'm faced with, but only a slightly related one. It's hard to make educated guesses in these situations. | 09:54 |
| soren | Too many years of trying to help out users who get stuck following badly written tutorials or howto's have made me very suspicious. I don't like following howto's unless I know I could have written it myself. | 09:57 |
| slangasek | well, that's one I could probably have written myself, so if you have specific questions just ask :) | 09:58 |
| soren | That's the problem, really. Since I have limited knowledge of the domain, it's hard to ask intelligent questions. On the flip side, I guess this is a valuable lesson for me to remember when I'm writing howto's for others, so it's not all bad. | 09:59 |
| liw | soren, I'm in the same boat, more or less: I strongly prefer to look things up myself, even if that makes things take longer | 10:03 |
| liw | but it breaks down when the docs aren't there, or are really hard to find | 10:03 |
| soren | liw: True. | 10:03 |
| liw | on the third hand, I think it makes me more efficient in the long run to know how to look things up, rather than knowing whom to ask :) | 10:04 |
| soren | Exactly! | 10:05 |
| soren | I also feel much better being able to say that I've done so and so becuase that's what I found to be the most sensible approach, rather than "I did so and so, because it said so on a random wiki page". | 10:06 |

| sladen | dee: that's ISDN related? | 16:16 |
| sladen | dee: so does that mean that ISDN is broken---probably the biggest affected would be German users | 16:17 |

| ogra | Riddell, looks fine | 16:18 |
| dee | sladen: and yes, that's the reason why I'm asking. German users will have a little problem now. :( | 16:19 |
| Riddell | ogra: can you test it works for you? | 16:20 |
| ogra | Riddell, i have no system that has no xrandr support | 16:22 |
| Riddell | ogra: so test it on a system with xrandr support | 16:23 |
| ogra | ah, i can reproduce the second error | 16:24 |
| ogra | bt i cant patch the binary :/ | 16:27 |
| zul | /win 10 | 16:28 |
| Riddell | ogra: it's python, no binary involed! | 16:33 |
| ogra | Riddell, i was trying to patch /usr/bin/hwdb-gui directly | 16:33 |
| Riddell | ogra: best to patch the source package and build | 16:34 |
| Riddell | ogra: I've attached a cleaner patch now | 16:34 |
| ogra | i was to lazy to build a package for it :P | 16:36 |
| ogra | the script doesnt get modified during build so i would have expected it to apply properly | 16:37 |
| Riddell | ogra: get anywhere with it? | 16:46 |
| ogra | building the package atm | 16:48 |

| dee | lamont: so you could not help either? who can help? | 18:10 |
| lamont | dee: it might get fixed in gutsy-updates. gutsy itself is closed | 18:10 |
| dee | ah, quick answer. ^^ | 18:10 |
| lamont | achiang: just /query mvo. :-) | 18:10 |
| dee | lamont: and what can I do so that it will be fixed? | 18:10 |
| dee | about 50% of German users have such a network card. | 18:11 |
| dee | okay, maybe 30... | 18:11 |
| * lamont checks around | 18:12 | |
| lamont | achiang: the other option is to use tcpdump or a proxy or such on your machine to see what it's fetching, which might lend some clues | 18:13 |
| lamont | dee: I'm going to see what else should be in an upload, and then I'll upload a new lrm to gutsy-updates | 18:15 |

| bmm | It might be the wrong place to ask, so feel free to boo me to another channel. I want to use something else than vfat on my usb stick, but don't want user permissions stored on it. Is there a filesystem or option I can use instead? | 18:17 |
| dee | the whole German Community will thank you then. :) | 18:17 |
| sbalneav | bmm: um, why? | 18:18 |
| lamont | bmm: I'm pretty sure the real filesystems all know about users and perms... why would you ever want to not store them? | 18:18 |
| lamont | their lack in vfat is seen as a major flaw in vfat | 18:18 |
| bmm | lamont: when you move from linux box to linux box, you want to be able to edit and remove those files on all those boxes. Which means you would either set umask different or add mount options to the fstab. | 18:19 |
| lamont | right | 18:20 |
| bmm | (Those are the two options I can think of) but I don't have any rights to change the /etc/fstab as I'm not root on all. | 18:20 |
| lamont | or have the same uid everywhere you go. | 18:20 |
| lamont | iz trust question... | 18:20 |
| sbalneav | Then why not use vfat? | 18:20 |
| lamont | or do you really want to plug your private files into some random machine? | 18:20 |
| bmm | lamont: It's a work pc, so I trust it and I don't have the same uid | 18:21 |
| sbalneav | Is it just between a work and home machine you're sharing? | 18:21 |
| bmm | lamont: also, I trust my home box not to start executing stuff from the usb stick or getting hacked by an invalid filesystem ;-) | 18:21 |
| bmm | sbalneav: yes, for the example I am. I real life, my girlfriend also has ubuntu now. | 18:22 |
| dee | lamont: Probably all modules fcdsl2, fcdslsl, fcdslslusb, fcdslusb, fcdslusb2, fcpci, fcdsl, fcdslusba, fcusb, fwlanusb, fxusb are concerned. | 18:22 |
| lamont | right | 18:23 |
| sbalneav | Well, probably then it would simply be easier to make sure the userid's are the same, with the one work box that's not under your control. | 18:23 |
| sbalneav | Barring that, vfat would be your best bet. | 18:23 |
| bmm | sbalneav: yeah, I'm getting to the point where I can't see a way out of vfat. Still, I think I may have to file a bug with somewhere like ext3 or the like... Thanks! | 18:24 |
| sbalneav | Well, there's nothing wrong with ext3. You're simply wanting two things that are basically mutually exclusive. I'm still a little unclear as to why you didn't want vfat :) | 18:27 |
| profoX` | BenC: mjg59: I just rolled in from the #ubuntu-classroom chat where I posed this question. sabdfl told me to ask one of you two instead: "follow up on laptop usability: Suspend/resume does not work for many people with swsusp or uswsusp. I myself have very good experiences with a TuxOnIce patched kernel. Has it already been proposed to include that patch by default in Ubuntu, and if not, why not?" | 18:29 |
| BenC | profoX`: No, and because I've never heard of it before | 18:30 |
| bmm | sbalneav: It's not that I don't want vfat, it's just that I didn't think it was cool and it's getting old in my mind ;-) | 18:30 |
| profoX` | BenC: it's the new name for Suspend2 | 18:30 |
| profoX` | ( http://www.tuxonice.net/features ) | 18:30 |
| BenC | oh, in that case it's because it's way too invasive for us to include | 18:30 |
| BenC | plus it requires lots of untested (on ubuntu) userspace changes | 18:31 |
| BenC | profoX`: and "does not work for many people" is a bit arbitrary and misleading...stock suspend/resume works for most people | 18:31 |
| mjg59 | profoX`: There are basically no situations in which tuxonice will work and the in-kernel suspend won't. | 18:32 |
| BenC | mjg59 would have much more to say | 18:32 |
| profoX` | mjg59: what happens if there is not enough free SWAP space to perform a suspend action with swsusp? | 18:33 |
| mjg59 | profoX`: It will resume again | 18:33 |
| profoX` | meaning it will not suspend, right? | 18:33 |
| mjg59 | Correct. swsusp2 doesn't magically fix that. | 18:33 |

| BenC | the -2.6.22 package isn't though :) | 18:36 |
| profoX` | mjg59: TuxOnIce is able to compress the data, and it can suspend to a swap partition and an extra swapfile at the same time if necessary, so I do think that it would work better. | 18:37 |

| lamont | mvo: what exactly triggers update-manager to decide that gutsy is available? wanna point me at the right file in the source? | 20:43 |
| sistpoty | keescook: why would you want to do that? (and is this really a conffile?) | 20:44 |
| * lamont brb | 20:44 | |
| glatzor | lamont: Core.MetaRelease | 20:45 |
| mvo | lamont: http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release | 20:51 |
| lamont | mvo: and if there is no ubuntu.com archive in sources.list? | 20:55 |
| lamont | or does it always fetch that URL regardless? | 20:56 |
| mvo | yes | 20:56 |
| lamont | interesting. | 20:58 |
| lamont | the situation here is: given a (stale?) sources.list pointed only at internal: update-manager says "up to date". add an ubuntu.com archive and apt-get update: then even if you change sources.list back, update-manager recognizes gutsy. | 20:59 |
| lamont | I would blame the "transparent" proxy if it wasn't a continuing issue since gutsy release. | 20:59 |
| lamont | and the proxy only caches things for 24 hours | 21:00 |
| mvo | lamont: that is update-manager under gnome, right? | 21:00 |
| mvo | lamont: what does lsb_release -a output on this system? | 21:00 |
| lamont | could be cli... let me check | 21:00 |
| mvo | the kde has a bug like that | 21:01 |
| mvo | fixed in gutsy-proposed | 21:01 |

| lamont | what should lsb_release -a say? | 21:01 |
| mvo | something with gutsy in it | 21:02 |
| lamont | something with gutsy in it --> no upgrade, since we're already tehre? | 21:02 |
| lamont | there? | 21:02 |
| mvo | yes | 21:02 |
| lamont | ok. that gives me the ammo I need. | 21:02 |
| lamont | do we know how it gets there? | 21:02 |
| ScottK | mvo: My Kubuntu install has Gutsy. | 21:02 |
| mvo | lamont: lsb_release is part of the lsb-release package (if that is what you mean :) | 21:04 |
| lamont | I meant do we know why lsb_release is deciding to report 'gutsy'... | 21:04 |
| lamont | and I suspect that it's because we upgraded that package to the gutsy version, or that something wrote /etc/lsb-release | 21:05 |
| mvo | that sounds plausible | 21:05 |
| * mvo is away for some minutes | 21:06 | |
| lamont | and s/gutsy/feisty/ will make update-manager happy for those poor afflicted ones? | 21:08 |
| lamont | the trend seems to be that they first see feisty-updates, and then it reports that all is well and current after the upgrade to current feisty-updates finishes | 21:08 |
| lamont | so I wonder if maybe u-m is the guilty one??? | 21:09 |
| cjwatson | sistpoty: it was an accident - they weren't supposed to have gone to the -changes list | 21:11 |
| keescook | sistpoty: well, procps used to use /etc/init.d/procps but then (a while back) switched to procps.sh, and are now switching back to just plain "procps". | 21:12 |
| keescook | sistpoty: but it doesn't install the new procps file because (I am assuming) it is marked as "obsolete" in the dpkg status file | 21:13 |
| cjwatson | I think that's worth checking rather than assuming it | 21:13 |
| cjwatson | dpkg conffile handling is a bit subtle | 21:13 |
| keescook | cjwatson: yup. if I remove the "obsolete" entry manually it works as expected. | 21:21 |
| mvo | lamont: hm, that sounds all a bit odd. you say that for people update-manager comes up and offers an upgrade, then they apply some updates and the next time it is run, the update option is gone? | 21:22 |
| lamont | update-manager comes up, tells them that feisty-updates is what they need. they run that update, and then run update-manger again, and it says "you're up to date" | 21:23 |
| === norsetto_ is now known as norsetto | ||
| mvo | lamont: and no "upgrade to gutsy" button anymore. or was it never there? | 21:24 |
| lamont | nope. and changing sources.list to point to u.c and dist-upgrading makes us then decide that gutsy is an option | 21:26 |
| lamont | I'll work on actually duplicating it later this week | 21:26 |

| === _Apex is now known as Apex | ||
| lamont | today/tomorrow I'm in a meeting all day | 21:28 |
| mvo | lamont: ok. they use the version of update-manager from feisty-updates I assume? because then it should be fine. you could check ~/.update-manager-core/meta-release and see if that contains gutsy. the file is requested with no-cache headers, so it should hopefully get through the proxy just fine | 21:29 |
| mvo | lamont: it would be cool to debug this issue | 21:29 |
| lamont | ok | 21:30 |

| mvo | Kmos: it was updated a couple of days before the release | 21:30 |
| mvo | Kmos: what is wrong with it? | 21:31 |
| lamont | all of the users I've heard it from have been internal to the company network, yes | 21:31 |
| lamont | and the company is known to have proxies that are not-so-transparent. | 21:31 |
| mvo | lamont: but http access to files outside of the network works, just through a (forced/transparent) proxy? | 21:32 |
| lamont | correct. | 21:32 |
| Kmos | mvo: i tried startupmanager and it didn't show any package for it | 21:32 |
| Kmos | it's that normal ? | 21:33 |
| lamont | if you don't specify a proxy, you get one. and that proxy doesn't expire Packages/etc in less than 24 hours, which means that it's perfectly normal and common to have the md5sum check fail | 21:33 |
| === dsas_ is now known as dsas | ||
| mvo | lamont: ok, thanks. that makes the picture more complete. I wonder if the meta-release file is stale in the proxy as well, but then it changed more than 24h ago, so it should be refreshed by now. strnage | 21:34 |
| mvo | Kmos: I get: $ startupmanager | 21:34 |
| mvo | The program 'startupmanager' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: | 21:34 |
| mvo | sudo apt-get install startupmanager | 21:34 |
| lamont | mvo: right | 21:35 |
| lamont | so now I have what I need to be able to walk someone with the issue through figuring out the evil that IT has done | 21:35 |
| lamont | unless it's our bug. :-( | 21:35 |
| mvo | lamont: feel free to file a bug and paste the content of our conversation so that it is not forgotten | 21:35 |
| Kmos | mvo: i don't get that | 21:36 |
| lamont | ok. I'll assign it to me, even. | 21:36 |
| mvo | lamont: it might be a u-m bug as well, I start to hate proxies, give us all sorts of problems | 21:36 |
| Kmos | kmos@bash:~$ startupmanager | 21:36 |
| Kmos | bash: startupmanager: command not found | 21:36 |
| lamont | update-manager honors $http_proxy, yes? | 21:36 |
| Kmos | command-not-found is already the newest version. | 21:36 |
| mvo | lamont: yes | 21:36 |
| * lamont will file the bug tonight, when he's not on his laptop | 21:36 | |
| stgraber | Kmos: updated system or clean install ? (I have command-not-found working correctly on a clean install here) | 21:37 |
| mvo | Kmos: I assume command-not-found-data too? it works here on a fresh install (just tested on my test-vm) | 21:37 |
| Kmos | mvo: installed too | 21:38 |
| Kmos | stgraber: upgraded from feisty, since tribe-3 ou -4 | 21:38 |
| mvo | Kmos: odd, what does "/usr/lib/command-not-found startupmanager" output? | 21:38 |
| Kmos | with all latest updates :) | 21:39 |
| Kmos | kmos@bash:~$ /usr/lib/command-not-found startupmanager | 21:39 |
| Kmos | The program 'startupmanager' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: | 21:39 |
| Kmos | sudo apt-get install startupmanager | 21:39 |
| Kmos | it's correct.. | 21:39 |
| Kmos | something with my bash script ? | 21:39 |
| mvo | Kmos: could you please check /etc/bash.bashrc? there should be something with command-not-found at the bottom | 21:39 |
| Kmos | # if the command-not-found package is installed, use it | 21:40 |
| Kmos | exactly | 21:40 |
| Kmos | http://pastebin.com/d573711ba | 21:41 |
| Kmos | it points to /usr/bin/ | 21:41 |
| Kmos | and not /usr/lib | 21:41 |
| mvo | Kmos: do you have a /etc/bash.bashrc.dpkg-new (or something similar)? | 21:42 |
| Kmos | mvo: nop | 21:42 |
| Kmos | maybe i didn't overwrite the bash in some update, but really don't know | 21:42 |
| mvo | that was my guess now (conffile prompt answered with "keep old version") | 21:43 |
| Kmos | :) | 21:43 |
| Kmos | i need to change it manually | 21:43 |
| mvo | yes | 21:43 |
| Kmos | thanks =) | 21:44 |
| mvo | cheers :) | 21:44 |
| * mvo should go to bed soon | 21:44 | |
| Kmos | mvo: good night | 21:45 |
| Knuckles | Hello all! | 21:51 |
| Knuckles | I read the article about joinning the ubuntu developement team | 21:52 |
| Knuckles | and I want to do it | 21:52 |
| Knuckles | but I can't know exactly what kind of competences are necessary to do that | 21:52 |
| Knuckles | as, wich languages do i have to know, etc. | 21:53 |
| Knuckles | Sorry for those messages, I didn't read the subjet. Mea Culpa | 21:56 |
| ScottK | Knuckles: If you are just getting started, #ubuntu-motu is a better place to start. Helping newcomers is part of their mission. | 21:59 |
| Knuckles | Yep | 22:00 |
| Knuckles | I read this channel subject and saw that after posting | 22:00 |
| Knuckles | Thank you for your help. | 22:00 |

| * lamont wants working video on his ATI Radeon mobility 1600 without using fglrx | 23:10 | |
| jdong | lamego: heh, good luck? | 23:11 |
| lamego | jdong, hum :) ? | 23:13 |
| lamego | ah, was lamont | 23:13 |
| lamont | jdong: well, I got video back, but with fglrx | 23:13 |
| jdong | lamego: ok, when 3 letters are the same, you are asking for mistabbing from me :) | 23:14 |
| lamont | with feisty, I -HAD- non-fglrx video working. nfc how though. | 23:14 |
| jdong | lamont: what? what driver? | 23:14 |
| jdong | avivo? | 23:14 |
| lamont | exactly | 23:15 |
| lamont | I wish to hell I knew. | 23:15 |
| lamont | for that matter, how do I get the X server to dump config, or tell me the driver name? | 23:15 |
| jdong | lamont: well the only other driver that runs on the card is avivo and VESA | 23:15 |
| jdong | lamont: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 23:15 |
| lamont | I wonder if it was avivo | 23:15 |
| lamont | jdong: you can boot without xorg.conf in gutsy. | 23:16 |
| lamont | but no config to read then | 23:16 |
| jdong | lamont: xorg.0.log | 23:16 |
| lamont | and reverseparse that log. ew. | 23:16 |
| * lamont tries avivo | 23:16 | |
| jdong | lamont: I was totally unaware that avivo had xvideo acceleration... | 23:17 |
| Amaranth | no no, if you start it without an xorg.conf file it dumps out what config file would match what it's using in the log | 23:17 |
| Amaranth | I think, anyway. Haven't tried it in awhile | 23:18 |
| lee_pepper | Hey does any one know any thing about intellectual property crimes, and open source?? | 23:21 |
| ion_ | Nope, no-one does. | 23:22 |
| lee_pepper | ouch | 23:22 |
| cjwatson_ | I think you should ask a less vague question | 23:23 |
| cjwatson_ | but if you need a lawyer, this is not the place | 23:23 |
| pwnguin | and if you need a paper for ethics class, this is also not the place ^_^ | 23:23 |
| ion_ | And if you need a hand committing an intellecutual property crime, this is not the place either. :-) | 23:24 |
| desrt | and if you're trolling to find out if we even recognise the term "intellectual property" as having a particular meaning, this is apparently also not the place? O_o | 23:24 |
| Spads | keep your property laws off my intellect, thank you. | 23:25 |
| lamont | avivo FTL. | 23:25 |
| * desrt thinks lee_pepper is getting more than s/he bargained for :) | 23:25 | |
| jdong | lamont: I don't know if radeonhd would work with the X1600? | 23:26 |
| jdong | or if it has xvideo for that matter | 23:26 |
| lamont | it screamed about video 0 being live with no outputs | 23:26 |
| jdong | O_O | 23:26 |
| lamont | I figure I'll make it my project at UDS next week,. | 23:26 |
| desrt | holy crap UDS is next week | 23:30 |
| desrt | :D | 23:30 |
| Mithrandir | it is | 23:31 |
| Mithrandir | scary thing. | 23:31 |
| desrt | colour me excited | 23:31 |
| desrt | Mithrandir; attending? | 23:31 |
| Mithrandir | desrt: of course. | 23:32 |
| desrt | with guest? | 23:32 |
| lifeless | desrt: you coming ? | 23:32 |
| Mithrandir | desrt: no. :-( | 23:32 |
| desrt | lifeless; wouldn't miss it :) | 23:32 |
| lifeless | excellent | 23:32 |
| lifeless | see you there :) | 23:32 |
| desrt | Mithrandir; that's unfortunate | 23:32 |
| desrt | lifeless; you will :) | 23:32 |
| Mithrandir | desrt: indeed. | 23:32 |
| xhaker | Boston right? | 23:33 |
| desrt | mhmm | 23:33 |
| desrt | pretty close to MIT | 23:33 |
| Mithrandir | at MIT, I thought? | 23:33 |
| jdong | desrt: technically on campus | 23:33 |
| desrt | just down the street from, actually | 23:33 |
| jdong | Cambridge :) | 23:33 |
| desrt | the hotel isn't on the campus... | 23:33 |
| jdong | desrt: I can see the building out of my window. | 23:33 |
| tonyyarusso | cjwatson_: Say, I have a kernel-related question if you have a moment. | 23:33 |
| desrt | is the conference in the hotel or at the university? | 23:34 |
| jdong | hotel, I thought | 23:35 |
| desrt | the hotel is technically on campus? | 23:35 |
| jdong | desrt: well how do you define on campus? | 23:36 |
| desrt | i don't know -- that's the problem :) | 23:36 |
| jdong | desrt: going by the MIT "all campus buildings have a building number" rule, than no | 23:36 |
| jdong | then* | 23:36 |
| * desrt google mapsed it and there seems to be a rather clearly defined "this is MIT" area | 23:37 | |
| jdong | desrt: going by the "there's more buildings further from it, so campus encovers the radius", then yes | 23:37 |
| desrt | ah... so there is a core campus and outlying buildings | 23:37 |
| jdong | desrt: right | 23:37 |
| jdong | desrt: and near the east side MIT owns a huge number of biotech skyscrapers | 23:37 |
| cjwatson_ | tonyyarusso: I think you may be talking to the wrong person - I'm not a kernel hacker | 23:38 |
| jdong | that are technically MIT property but most of our mortal undergrad souls never get to enter :) | 23:38 |
| desrt | i grok. thanks for the info | 23:38 |
| jdong | sure thing | 23:38 |
| tonyyarusso | cjwatson_: could be - I guess I'm mis-thinking today. Darn :( | 23:38 |
| * tonyyarusso wants his bloody consoles back | 23:38 | |
| cjwatson_ | #ubuntu-kernel maybe | 23:39 |
| tonyyarusso | I'll try that | 23:39 |
