jamie_not looking forward to mine so much my mother in laws house flooded a couple of days ago so i have to go help clean it out :(16:24
rwwjamie_: re: your nickserv confusion: your client is set to log in as jamie, which is registered and enforced by nickserv. if the jamie with that account is online, your client uses jamie_ instead, since IRC nicks have to be unique, and everything is fine. if they're not, it uses jamie, and gets forcenicked to Guest12345 by nickserv after 30 (?) seconds.16:32
jamie_ok so there is more than one jamie?16:43
rwwyes16:44
rww#ubuntu-us-ca's on a network with a /lot/ of people. most common firstnames are already taken16:44
jamie_so i should prolly change mine then huh?16:45
rwwheh. looks like jamie_ is actually registered by someone else too, they just didn't turn on nickserv enforcement :\16:46
jamie_ok so how do i change my name so i can just sign in?16:46
jamiedmattinglyok hopefully this one isnt taken :)16:51
jamiedmattingly<------used to be just 'jamie'16:51

seidosrww, graphical live cd installer20:13
rwwseidos: file it against the ubiquity package20:13

stburtoHas anyone installed Ubuntu server 9.04 under Parallels on a Mac?22:23
jamiedmattinglysorry never used a mac22:24
stburtoThis is my first in a long career and am finding it quite a productive environment.22:25
akkMy husband runs ubuntu under virtualbox on mac ... he was unimpressed with Parallels compared to VB and VMware.22:27
stburtoThank you for that commet, I am going to install VMWare next and then try virtualbox.22:28
stburtoI got the software installed but can't seem to be able to install Parallells Tools as I was able to do with the Windows VM.22:29
stburtoI am learning quickly and am enjoying it a lot.22:31
rwwFYI, Ubuntu 9.04 stopped receiving security updates in October.22:44
akk9.04 does seem like an odd choice.22:45
stburtoI tried 10.04 but I could not get it to install.22:49
stburtoIt went haywire with GRUB2.22:50
akkIIRC there's an option in 10.04 to use grub1.22:52
akkOr of course you can update jaunty to karmic, then karmic to lucid, if you get jaunty working once.22:53
stburtoI will work that out. Right now it is important to me to have some functionality.22:58
stburtoI appreciate your help!22:59
nhainesstburto: use the tool to install the Parallels tools, and then see if a CD shows up in Ubuntu.23:22
nhainesYou might be able to run the installer from the CD by double-clicking, or you might need to open a terminal, change to the CD directory, and then run it on the commandline with "sudo" in front.23:23
stburtoI don't seem to be getting the CD contents to show up in Ubuntu to do the install.23:24
stburtoAlso, when you say terminal, is that a Mac terminal of Ubuntu? I get confused.23:25
stburtoI know that I am skating on thin ice, trying to do stuff that I have yet to gain enough skill to do this with out help.23:28
kdub_stburto: no one every got much stronger by lifting less weight than they should :P23:42
kdub_*ever23:43
kdub_all sorts of english failures there, hope the point wasnt lost :)23:44
stburtoNot at all, I know what you mean.23:44
