mhall119user setup is now exactly like any other *buntu00:00
cyberangerhis issue was sudo rights, based on the whole bit00:00
mhall119yeah, I'm not happy with that, but I'm glad it allows for multiple users to have a Qimo desktop now00:00
mhall119it was a trade off00:00
cyberangerflawed00:05
cyberangercan't win00:05
chibihogoshinoi really wish the apt had a force option that worked00:18
cyberangerI understand it (and I believe he did too) you just can't win00:22
cyberangerchibihogoshino: how's it not working?00:22
chibihogoshinothe new version of pidgin is trying to overwrite of file from pidgin-facebookchat00:23
chibihogoshinoi cant remove pidgin-facebookchat because i cant finish installing the new pidgin00:24
chibihogoshinothis is stupid.. its one png file and you can force it to ignore the "error"00:28
chibihogoshinoits a damn loop00:29
chibihogoshinowell.. thats one way to get around it..00:34
chibihogoshinoi removed the file in /var/lib/dpkg/info00:35
cyberangerouch00:36
cyberangerof course, why'd you still have that plugin00:37
chibihogoshinoyeah00:37
chibihogoshinoi think00:37
cyberangerit's outdated for awhile now, xmpp solved that00:37
chibihogoshinoyeah00:37
chibihogoshinoi forgot to remove it00:37
cyberangerhehe, well, that's one reason I look at the info myself00:38
cyberangerand it should be better than that, ideally00:38
chibihogoshinoit should ask if you want to ignore the over writes00:39
chibihogoshinoone png should not brake dependency00:40
chibihogoshinoman.. its 21 out00:42
chibihogoshinoway to bloody cold for me00:43
cyberangerchibihogoshino: worse here00:51
cyberangerand yeah, a png shouldn't00:52
cyberangerbut the issue in my book is the bigger picture00:52
cyberangerthe package it was in00:52
chibihogoshinopidgin ?00:52
chibihogoshinoi dont know why they have to both use the same name for the icon00:53
chibihogoshinothe pidgin crew must of known that it was going to conflict but they released it anyway00:54
cyberangerwell, actually considering pidgin's development team did not develop the fb plugin00:55
cyberangerand how defunct it is...00:55
chibihogoshinoyeah00:57

chibihogoshinoReversals take a few thousand years to complete, and during that time--contrary to popular belief--the magnetic field does not vanish. "It just gets more complicated," says Glatzmaier. Magnetic lines of force near Earth's surface become twisted and tangled, and magnetic poles   pop up in unaccustomed places. A south magnetic pole might emerge over            Africa, for instance, or a north pole over Tahiti. Weird. But05:09
chibihogoshinoit's still a planetary magnetic field, and it still protects us from space radiation and solar storms.05:09
chibihogoshinowoops05:09
cyberangerchibihogoshino: that's an intresting opps ;-)14:46

cyberangerall the stuff I see is via the Gulf of Mexico, it might be cold enough for ice20:53

wrstknow ice i don't care for20:54
