h3sp4wnAnything particularly broken ? (Not bothered if the kernel or Xorg is broken particularly) I want to fix a few things that have been really bugging me with gutsy (but I think are just packaging errors)01:51
h3sp4wnI wonder when Ubuntu will actually be taken seriously (if ever) by the people making engineering software01:53
Tm_Twhat you mean?01:53
h3sp4wnTm_T: supported (i.e not just providing deb's for RHEL)01:55
h3sp4wnnot debs sorry :) rpm's01:55
Tm_Thmm01:56
Tm_Tissue in Ubuntu side is...01:56
h3sp4wnIf someone is using a design suite that costs $100,000 or so they will use it with a supported OS01:56
Tm_Tyes01:56
Tm_TI know01:56
Tm_TI'm wondering why they don't support deb*01:57
h3sp4wnNo idea - I wonder if Mark Shuttleworth is offering to pay people to certify their apps (or send programmers) for Ubuntu (like Sun does for Solaris stuff that their customers want)01:58
Tm_TI see01:58
h3sp4wnI wonder if RedHat has any involvement in these apps at all or not either (or helps them in anyway) - I am not that bothered to use CentOS just for a bit (better than Windows) but I guess more students would run Ubuntu if that was what was in the labs here02:01

Hobbseeno12:58
_nix_I was about to propose something that would update the fstab uuid things after say a disk format..12:58
dddddi always remove them12:59
_nix_but that would be a hack isn't it? I mean uuids do protect (at least) me from b0rking my setup when I change the /dev/hda /dev/hdc in the hardware13:00
dddddi never understood the uuid it is only giving me trouble with grub and several installed OSes13:01
dddddso i always remove them on all install from fstab and menu.list13:02
_nix_oh.. k13:03
_nix_well yeah it does give some nasty hiccups to the fsck-on-startup too.13:03
dddddbut it is useful if you have more than 1 hdd ?13:04
dddddbecause i have 1 hdd with 10 partitions and that is it13:04
DanaG10 partitions?13:05
dddddyes13:05
DanaGWhy?13:05
_nix_right there.. especially when you're prone to switching master/secondary/master/slave pendemonium13:05
DanaG(not that I'm saying there's no reason, but I don't see one for myself.)13:05
DanaGDoesn't the SCSI subsystem have some limit to the number of total partitions?13:06
DanaGOn one drive, I mean.13:06
DanaGOh, 15.13:07
_nix_only 15 partitions with scsi?? that is kinda' limiting I guess13:07
ddddd2 primary partitions and 1 logical with the other 813:07
ddddd...extended13:07
DanaG sda: sda1 sda2 sda3 sda4 < sda5 sda6 >13:09
DanaGwhere 4 is the extended itself.13:09
dddddsda1 sda2 [sda4(sda 5, 6, 7, ....)]13:11
DanaGgaack, though that new scrolling patch is cool, it also renders it impossible to middle-drag using twofingertap.13:23
