[02:52] <zerothis> what? the larn sourcecode makefile is HTML? how does one run make with an HTML formatted makefile?
[02:58] <well_laid_lawn> larn the cli game? - that's 20 years old at least
[03:00] <zerothis> yes, I'm a curator for a museum
[03:01] <zerothis> but I'd like to show a working game in the exibit, not just a source archive
[03:02] <well_laid_lawn> with the makefile being html I have no idea how you would build it
[03:03] <zerothis> well, is there a larn with a traditional makefile?
[03:07] <well_laid_lawn> just been web searching and there are larn like games on sourceforge but nothing much else about it
[03:09] <well_laid_lawn> zerothis:  found this - http://ftp.vim.org/os/OpenBSD/cvs/src/games/larn/
[03:12] <insomaniacal> Hey, can anyone tell me how to manually change themes in XFCE?
[03:14] <zerothis> thanks, I found that before, but i'm not sure what to do with ,v files except remove the ,v from them. except the result didn't make
[03:15] <well_laid_lawn> I read the make file - it seemed weird
[12:29] <xubuntu580> j
[17:39] <aladoinsano> when i run gparted it claims it can not detect the file system on my swap partition, is this because it might be encrypted? (i chose to encrypt my home folder at install)
[17:40] <TheSheep> aladoinsano: swap doesn't have a filesystem
[17:41] <aladoinsano> ok, so all is fine then? i just wanted to make sure before i activate hibernation, which i guess writes to the swap partition, right?
[17:43] <TheSheep> to check if your swap is working use 'swapon -s' command
[17:45] <aladoinsano> TheSheep, nope it was not, when i ran swapon -a it says it can not find the device
[17:46] <aladoinsano> weird, can i just format the partition as swap and then mount it in fstab? or do i somehow have to tell the system that that is the swap after that?
[17:50] <TheSheep> you can mkswap, add it to fstab and do swapon -a
[17:51] <aladoinsano> TheSheep, ok will try that, how can i find the uuid of a partition?
[17:51] <TheSheep> !uuid
[17:53] <aladoinsano> in fstab there is a entry for a swap "/dev/mapper/cryptswap1" this is the one that will not mount and the one i then will replace, but doesnt "cryptswap" suggest that its supposed to be encrypted?
[17:54] <Sysi> /dev/mapper suggest there is RAID
[17:55] <aladoinsano> ok, even more weird, i dont use raid
[17:55] <Sysi> lvm?
[17:56] <aladoinsano> nope
[17:56] <Sysi> well, i've seen that only with mdadm or lvm
[17:56] <aladoinsano> not that i know, im pretty sure i did not select that at install
[17:57] <aladoinsano> ok, i'll remove it and will try to reformat the partition and then try to mount the new one, i just hope i wont brake something
[17:58] <TheSheep> Sysi: /sev/mapper is also used when encrypting partitions...
[17:58] <TheSheep> dev/mapper
[17:58] <Sysi> oh that
[17:58] <Sysi> as said, never seen it, sorry
[20:18] <mark76> Can someone confirm that xfce4 weather is currently unavailable?
[20:18] <mark76> The service. The service
[20:22] <charlie-tca> mark76: sure
[20:23] <mark76> Why has it stopped working?
[20:24] <charlie-tca> An off course satellite or something is blocking the NOA signals
[20:24] <mark76> Aha!
[20:24] <mark76> Phew
[20:24] <charlie-tca> It should be back in a few hours
[20:24] <mark76> Thanks Chaz
[20:24] <charlie-tca> You are welcome
[20:24] <mark76> Bloody space junk :p
[20:25] <charlie-tca> yup
[20:25] <charlie-tca> 2nd time it did this now
[20:25] <charlie-tca> same junk, too
[20:26] <mark76> I wonder if it's affecting any other satellite based communication services
[20:26] <mark76> Everyone call their nan
[20:26] <mark76> And switch on Sky/your satellite TV provider
[20:26] <charlie-tca> the only one I know of it affecting is the NOA
[20:28] <mark76> I wonder whose satellite it is
[20:43] <aladoinsano> does anybody know how i can get the hibernation button to appear at the log-out box, i just installed a new version of xubuntu and its not there, im sure i had it in earlier versions
[20:44] <TheSheep> aladoinsano: yes
[20:44] <TheSheep> aladoinsano: go to settings->settings editor
[20:44] <aladoinsano> i have been checking each settings menu and i can not find anything connected to it, apart from under power management, but then only as an action if is close the lid etc.
[20:45] <TheSheep> aladoinsano: then in xfce4-session -> shutdown -> ShowHibernate
[20:45] <aladoinsano> TheSheep, will have a look, thanks for the help with the swap partition by the way, i managed to fix that
[20:45] <TheSheep> cool
[20:47] <aladoinsano> and the button is back! thanks again!
[20:52] <aladoinsano> TheSheep, well it seems like the battle is still not won, the hibernation didnt really work, it shut off alright and it seemed to hibernate, but when i re-started i came into the default desktop again..
[20:53] <aladoinsano> at least the button is there, the hunt goes on..
[20:55] <TheSheep> aladoinsano: can't really help you there, sorry
