| Kilos | i know little about modems | 10:16 |

| Kilos | has he been on before superfly or maybe just installed ubuntu and doesnt know how to activate the network manager | 10:20 |

| === confluency_ is now known as confluency | ||
| Kilos | hiya confluency | 10:25 |
| confluency | Hi, Kilos. | 10:30 |
| nlsthzn-work | greetings all... | 10:32 |
| nlsthzn-work | the UAE is finally going a bit more official with there loco... so they know have #ubuntu-za channel :).... | 10:33 |
| nlsthzn-work | ... and we (they) would like to know more about bots, especially awesome ones like maaz... any links or resources available? | 10:34 |
| tumbleweed | nlsthzn-work: ibid.omnia.za.net | 10:34 |
| nlsthzn-work | tumbleweed: thank you :) | 10:36 |
| tumbleweed | marcog: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2011-April/032890.html | 10:42 |
| marcog | wow | 10:43 |
| marcog | any general response to that? i dont feel like reading through all the replies | 10:43 |
| tumbleweed | lots of responses | 10:43 |
| tumbleweed | general agreement, with niggles | 10:45 |
| marcog | as in, keep unity? | 10:46 |
| queery | so would it be better to just stick with GNOME for this release? | 10:46 |
| * nlsthzn-work likes the unity | 10:46 | |
| tumbleweed | marcog: yes | 10:46 |
| tumbleweed | queery: GNOME is still available from gdm | 10:47 |
| marcog | i don't mind a slightly broken release, there should be reason to keep people on LTS releases | 10:47 |
| queery | I know, but i don't have time now to try and figure out bugs, so is unity going to be too time consuming for me to install with? | 10:47 |
| queery | isn't 04 the LTS | 10:48 |
| tumbleweed | 04 is LTS on even years | 10:48 |
| queery | oh ok | 10:48 |
| queery | that's why im confused | 10:49 |
| tumbleweed | unity is cool, but it does break some stuff and has been crashing a bit | 10:49 |
| queery | hmm | 10:49 |
| queery | ill try it after I handed in my thesis... | 10:49 |
| nlsthzn-work | ironically enough I has many less crashes a few updates back than now in natty :/ | 11:10 |
| nlsthzn-work | *had | 11:10 |
| tumbleweed | that's normal :) stability comes in waves | 11:12 |
| nlsthzn-work | tumbleweed: we needs a tsunami me thinks :) | 11:22 |
| Kilos | hehe hiya nlsthzn-work | 11:37 |
| Kilos | hi tumbleweed | 11:37 |
| tumbleweed | hi | 11:37 |
| nlsthzn-work | hey uncle Kilos | 11:44 |
| nuvolari | hi guys, anyone using 11.04 yet? if so, is it stable enough to trust for a production laptop+ | 12:09 |
| * nuvolari is overdue, still on 10.04 | 12:09 | |
| nlsthzn-work | nuvolari: nope | 12:09 |
| nuvolari | meh ok | 12:10 |
| nuvolari | thanks nlsthzn-work | 12:10 |
| nlsthzn-work | have been using since alpha and I have suffered through it | 12:10 |
| nlsthzn-work | but it can be frustrating when it crashes right when you are on your busiest | 12:10 |
| Kilos | nuvolari, havent you got 10.10 yet? | 13:32 |
| Kilos | its great | 13:32 |
| nuvolari | Kilos: nope | 13:32 |
| Kilos | methinks better than 10.04 | 13:32 |
| nuvolari | did not have the time to upgrade yet oom | 13:32 |
| Kilos | eish | 13:32 |
| * superfly always upgrades | 13:38 | |
| * nlsthzn-work seems to always install the OS before it is released, and move on once it is stable :p | 13:39 | |
| nlsthzn-work | http://freedomdreams.co.uk/code/beard/ :) | 13:45 |
| queery | one way to get your face out there | 14:00 |
| nlsthzn-work | queery: lol | 14:04 |
| rodemire | Hallo evryone | 14:27 |
| * nlsthzn-work waves | 14:27 | |
| rodemire | Is there a way i can download repois from the interenet and use them offline on a PC at home? | 14:28 |
| rodemire | *repos | 14:28 |
| nlsthzn-work | rodemire: yes (but I am not sure how...) | 14:29 |
| rodemire | How do i go about it? I have uncapped broadband at work and i want to update my PC at home, but this is for updates from system updates to apps updates | 14:31 |
| queery | you can try to use aptoncd | 15:01 |
| queery | I have only heard of people using it | 15:02 |
| queery | do you have an ubuntu workstation at work | 15:02 |
| queery | sorry for the late answer rodemire | 15:02 |
| superfly | queery: aptoncd doesn't do what he wants | 15:20 |
| nlsthzn-work | superfly: I was also thinking aptoncd as I had heard of it before (but couldn't remember the name)... but you say it won't work? | 15:27 |
| superfly | not for an offline version of the repository | 15:28 |
| drubin | Why do people email ubuntu-za-owner for support queries? | 15:29 |
| drubin | make drueben sad | 15:29 |
| superfly | http://tumbleweed.org.za/2010/10/09/release-party-ubuntu-mirror | 15:29 |
| superfly | nlsthzn-work, queery, rodemire: ^^^ | 15:30 |
| nlsthzn-work | superfly: oh cool... never actually looked what aptoncd was for... neat but not what was needed... | 15:30 |
| nlsthzn-work | superfly: awesome... initially I was thinking it is a bit early for the release party :p | 15:31 |
| nlsthzn-work | home time for IR... cheers all... see you later | 15:36 |
| queery | that could work too | 15:39 |
| queery | gege | 15:39 |
| marcog | drubin: seen something similar before, wish you could silently redirect it | 15:40 |
| queery | *hehe | 15:40 |
| queery | and drubin who is drueben? | 15:41 |
| kodez | afternoon guys. is there an ubuntu launch party planned for Natty Narwhal in Pretoria | 16:20 |
| queery | yes | 16:20 |
| queery | http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/team/864/detail/ | 16:21 |

| nuvolari_ | my patience has been rewarded at last | 19:04 |
| nuvolari_ | lo sdehaan | 19:04 |
| nuvolari_ | anyone compared OpenOffice and LibreOffice recently? | 19:06 |
| nuvolari_ | LibreOffice feels a lot faster | 19:07 |
| nuvolari_ | from the previous version | 19:07 |
| nuvolari_ | bbiab | 19:07 |
