xr1 | Where do you add new fonts too? Where is the fonts directory | 12:24 |
gord | xr1, /usr/share/fonts/truetype | 12:25 |
xr1 | gord: so you would just put fonts in there and they automatically work? | 12:29 |
xr1 | Ah yeah its working now thanks. | 12:30 |
JoShields | when you double-click on a font to view it, there's an install button iirc... | 12:58 |
* AlanBell plays with blender | 13:17 | |

nigelb | ok, I didn't get that far. | 13:45 |
AlanBell | it seems to be easier than when I last tried | 13:45 |
ali1234 | you have to learn teh keyboard shortcuts to use blender | 13:45 |
nigelb | I had big dreams when I installed it after watching Sintel's making ;) | 13:45 |
ali1234 | the gui is largely useless | 13:45 |

ali1234 | everything good is in the menus | 13:46 |
AlanBell | there are some mouse gestures going on as well | 13:46 |

danfish | czajkowski: ^^^ | 17:49 |
penguin42 | danfish: All green birds? | 17:57 |
Azelphur | question re /home encryption on Ubuntu, I assume if you hack up a root shell and change the account password, you don't get a decrypted copy of /home :P | 18:02 |
czajkowski | danfish: heh | 18:11 |
shauno | the paddy's day special is just a GL filter to blur the whole thing out | 18:12 |
penguin42 | Azelphur: That is my understanding, I think your account password is used to decrypt the key that's used to encrypt the data on /home, so changing the account password wouldn't help you get that key; to change the password on there I think you have to decrypt the key using the existing password and then reencrypt using the new one | 18:44 |
penguin42 | Azelphur: Not that I've actually looked at the code | 18:44 |
Azelphur | fun :P | 18:44 |

tervo | how do you change runlevels in ubuntu | 19:13 |
SuperMatt | uhm, telinit may work | 19:13 |
MartijnVdS | Ubuntu doesn't have runlevels anymore | 19:13 |
MartijnVdS | since upstart | 19:13 |
MartijnVdS | I guess? | 19:14 |
tervo | yeah | 19:14 |
tervo | its all upstart scripts | 19:14 |
tervo | ugh | 19:14 |
MartijnVdS | tervo: upstart is really nice once you learn how to work it | 19:14 |
tervo | my X doesnt work | 19:14 |
tervo | so im trying to change runlevels and see | 19:14 |
MartijnVdS | that's not how it works in Ubuntu :) | 19:15 |
MartijnVdS | !fixvideo | 19:15 |
lubotu3 | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 19:15 |
tervo | so i shouldnt have to modify xorg.conf? | 19:17 |
tervo | i stopped gdm and tried that but my monitor is out of range and keyboard doesnt work | 19:17 |
MartijnVdS | not unless you have a very strange combination of video card | 19:17 |
MartijnVdS | and monitor | 19:17 |
tervo | ok | 19:18 |
tervo | what is ?dm | 19:21 |
tervo | sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart | 19:21 |
tervo | i cant even login to ubuntu now | 19:21 |
tervo | once i start ubntu, monitor goes out of range and keyboard fails | 19:22 |
DJones | tervo: ?dm refers to kdm/gdm etc depending on whether you're using kde or gnome as far as I'm aware | 19:22 |
brobostigon | /etc/init.d/gdm restart ,gdm is an example. | 19:22 |
popey | or xdm | 19:22 |
brobostigon | or aiccu* | 19:22 |
tervo | yeah but i cant even login to ubuntu now | 19:22 |
tervo | keybord stops working and monitor is out of range | 19:22 |
DJones | brobostigon: Bless you, hope your cold clears up soon :) | 19:22 |
brobostigon | DJones: hehe, :) | 19:23 |
tervo | any ideas | 19:23 |
tervo | grub's gone.. | 19:23 |
tervo | any ideas? | 19:24 |
brobostigon | my first thought, is a bootup, cli only, without xorg trying to start, | 19:25 |
brobostigon | minute, recovery. | 19:25 |
tervo | the ubntu is on a usb | 19:26 |
tervo | so i just boot it from a usb | 19:26 |
tervo | but if i do thee's no cli, nothing | 19:26 |
tervo | keyboard stops working | 19:26 |
brobostigon | cant you boot in inrecovery, from grub prompt.? | 19:26 |
tervo | grub is gone | 19:27 |
tervo | i put in the windows cd and grubwas gone | 19:27 |
brobostigon | yes, windows will have killedgrub, iwould try and reinstall grub onto it. | 19:27 |
brobostigon | !grub2 | 19:27 |
lubotu3 | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 19:27 |
brobostigon | brb, | 19:28 |
brobostigon | iwould try and restore grub first. | 19:28 |
tervo | ok | 19:29 |
tervo | let me do that | 19:29 |
brobostigon | and then bootinto reocvery, and then work out a xorg.conf with popey, | 19:29 |
tervo | where do i download just grub from | 19:29 |
brobostigon | tervo: use the instructions inthe page irefferred to above. | 19:29 |
ali1234 | why doesn't ubuntu use hybrid isos? | 19:29 |
tervo | brobostigon: based on the link there | 19:30 |
tervo | it says download a live cd | 19:30 |
brobostigon | or use a liveusb, | 19:31 |
tervo | ok | 19:31 |
tervo | will try this in the morning thanks for the link | 19:31 |
tervo | will return later | 19:31 |
tervo | thanks | 19:31 |
brobostigon | yes, and tell it to instal grub to the device,referring tothe live usb you are using, as the grubinstall target. | 19:31 |
tervo | noted | 19:32 |
brobostigon | tervo: other people mayhave other ideas though, but that is mine, | 19:33 |
tervo | i will restore grub in the morning | 19:33 |
tervo | tired messing with this now | 19:33 |
tervo | but gonna try it and see how it goes | 19:33 |
tervo | thanks | 19:33 |
brobostigon | youre welcome, | 19:33 |
shauno | heh, quote from another channel(/network) .. "i dont want to loose my wobbly windows". I thought that was meant to be a demo. feature? | 19:48 |
MartijnVdS | so? if people like it.. why remove it | 19:49 |
MartijnVdS | and it's nice/show-offy | 19:49 |
shauno | just never seen it referred to as a feature like that. thought it was curious | 19:50 |
ali1234 | when i use a system that doesn't have wobbly windows it feels old and clunky | 19:51 |
brobostigon | well, i am a beos man, always think,whats the point inhaving eye-candy, if it doesnt actually improve usability, | 19:51 |
MartijnVdS | ali1234: I want it to have the "throw ball" sound effect from Little Big Adventure | 19:51 |

MartijnVdS | ali1234: which language? | 19:55 |
ali1234 | C | 19:55 |
MartijnVdS | ah | 19:55 |
MartijnVdS | no idea :) | 19:55 |
MartijnVdS | Python or Perl.. I can help | 19:56 |
ali1234 | i know how to do it | 19:56 |
ali1234 | what i don't know how to do is encode the unicode values to utf-8 strings | 19:56 |
MartijnVdS | http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:-c27zcwF3bMJ:swishewiki.org/sw/index.php/Unicode_C_Example+c+utf-8+examples&hl=en&client=ubuntu&gl=nl&strip=1 | 19:57 |
ali1234 | so %lc basically... hmm | 19:58 |
ali1234 | i will try it | 19:58 |
ali1234 | i can't actually use locale encoding because unicode doesn't officially contain the characters i need | 19:59 |
MartijnVdS | ali1234: Klingon? :) | 19:59 |
ali1234 | btw, i'm sure i remember seeing a patch for compiz that generated wobbling sounds based on a string simulation of the window | 19:59 |
ali1234 | maybe i imagined it | 20:00 |

MartijnVdS | ah yes :) | 20:23 |
MartijnVdS | I'd just pull harder.. looks pretty standard | 20:23 |

nperry | \o/ last outcasts tonight, anyone watching? | 21:35 |
HazRPG | Kita89: quick tip, not sure if it works on empathy - but if you start typing someone's name and then hit tab, it should auto complete the persons name | 21:35 |
Kita89 | HazRPG: o it does :) | 21:36 |
HazRPG | Kita89: it also helps notify people that your talking to them | 21:36 |
HazRPG | nperry: last outcasts? | 21:37 |
Kita89 | HazRPG: awesome | 21:37 |
brobostigon | Kita89: the tab,autocomplete also works innormalterminal aswell. :) | 21:37 |

MartijnVdS | Kita89: in a normal terminal window | 21:37 |
brobostigon | Kita89: in a normal terminal. | 21:37 |
HazRPG | brobostigon: the terminal, when you need to type in commands of directories/files, etc | 21:37 |

MartijnVdS | HazRPG: you didn't know about terminal tab completion?! | 21:38 |
HazRPG | MartijnVdS: of course I did! | 21:38 |
HazRPG | MartijnVdS: was where I learned about it in the first place :P | 21:38 |
brobostigon | :) | 21:38 |
Cepheus | one of the worst things about cmd.exe is the stupid tab completion. | 21:39 |
HazRPG | Cepheus: heh, didn't think cmd did it! | 21:39 |
Kita89 | Cepheus: but you dont have to press tab, so surely its all good, right? | 21:39 |
HazRPG | >_< | 21:39 |
HazRPG | Kita89: its just useful when you have lots that you need to type in - means your less likely to get CTS | 21:40 |
Cepheus | or RSI | 21:40 |
Kita89 | HazRPG: well im not on my comp enough to worry about CTS :P | 21:40 |
HazRPG | Cepheus: essentially the same thing isn't it :P? | 21:40 |
HazRPG | Kita89: you'd be surprised ;) | 21:41 |
MartijnVdS | HazRPG: or DVT? | 21:41 |
HazRPG | MartijnVdS: that's a new one on me, what's that? | 21:41 |
Kita89 | MartijnVdS: i hope not... | 21:41 |
MartijnVdS | HazRPG: that's what you get when you don't walk around during a long flight (deep vein thrombosis) | 21:41 |
MartijnVdS | +more likely to | 21:42 |
HazRPG | MartijnVdS: Oh, yeah I know that one :) | 21:42 |
HazRPG | MartijnVdS: I travel to Egypt a lot, and my mum's a midwife/doctor... so she tells me about it a lot. | 21:43 |

daubers | Anyone familiar with github?? | 23:27 |
mgdm | daubers: mildly | 23:27 |
daubers | I've done a simple fix to a project I was using, github told me to fork the project to upload some changes, so I did, now how on earth do I send a request to the original project to say I've fixed it in this branch? | 23:28 |
mgdm | send a pull request | 23:28 |
daubers | How? | 23:29 |
daubers | It only offers me my branches in the blasted interface | 23:29 |
mgdm | Go to their one | 23:30 |
dutchie | daubers: is there not a big pull request button in the top right? | 23:30 |
daubers | Yes, but that offers me my branches | 23:30 |
dutchie | ah yes, to their branch | 23:30 |
daubers | mgdm: I can't see on on theirs | 23:30 |
daubers | blummin 'eck what a hassle | 23:34 |
mgdm | it's not that much, any time I've done it | 23:35 |
