| akgraner | Hi all as of right now there are 10 slots still open for Ubuntu Open Week...and volunteers or thoughts for sessions not already listed on the Open Week Wiki? - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOpenWeek | 12:51 |
| akgraner | Let me know if you have ideas or would like to lead a session :-) Thanks! | 12:51 |
| nhandler | Times don't work for me, sorry akgraner | 12:52 |
| akgraner | nhandler, no worries...thanks for checking to see though | 12:53 |
| akgraner | do you have any session suggestions? | 12:53 |
| akgraner | I've emailed tons of people but most of them will be swamped or sprinting or getting ready for UDS...so I'm seeing if I missed anything (which I am sure I have) or anyone that would like to discussion their area of interest(s) etc... | 12:55 |
| nhandler | akgraner: Not right now, but I'll think about it and get back to you | 12:57 |
| akgraner | thanks! I have 5 sessions that are being discussed if I can get those added today we'll only need 5 more sessions...:-) | 12:58 |
| mhall119 | akgraner: I can do either another seahorse session, or a command-line basics session | 13:09 |
| akgraner | mhall119, how about command line... | 13:09 |
| mhall119 | sounds good, I'll put together a syllabus | 13:10 |
| mhall119 | I think I'm available all week | 13:10 |
| akgraner | "Users don't *need* no stinking command line, but sometimes they really *want* to use it" Intro to basic command line usage... | 13:11 |
| mhall119 | put me at one of the mid-week 1600UTC slots | 13:11 |
| akgraner | Just teasing about the title...It's a failed attempt at geek humor :-/ | 13:11 |
| mhall119 | :) | 13:12 |
| nigelb | No no | 13:12 |
| nigelb | the title should be | 13:12 |
| nigelb | "What to do when your SO hides away your mouse" | 13:12 |
| mhall119 | call it "Dr. Command Love: or, how I learned to stop worry and love the prompt" | 13:13 |
| mhall119 | maybe that's too long | 13:13 |
| nigelb | mhall119: "Grep the sed out of your terminal" | 13:14 |
| nigelb | ;-) | 13:14 |
| === cypher is now known as czajkowski | ||
| mhall119 | now I need ideas for what commands to cover | 13:21 |
| akgraner | mhall119, I penciled you in for Wed 1600 UTC with - Conquering the Command Line for Beginners - mhall119 | 13:27 |
| mhall119 | cool, sounds good to me | 13:27 |
| mhall119 | akgraner: if you would mind, can you give me a list of some common and/or useful commands you use | 13:28 |
| akgraner | mhall119, cd, grep, kill | 13:29 |
| mhall119 | you kill a lot of stuff? | 13:30 |
| * akgraner looks for my note (cheatsheet) I use... | 13:30 | |
| akgraner | I do...b/c my machine runs hot all the time | 13:30 |
| mhall119 | sounds like a kernel driver problame | 13:31 |
| akgraner | so I am constantly running the top command then I kill stuff | 13:31 |
| akgraner | they are working on it... | 13:31 |
| akgraner | it's been ongoing on and off since Karmic - I think it's a race condition but I can't always duplicate it | 13:31 |
| mhall119 | does the CPU usage max out? | 13:32 |
| akgraner | yep - so I ordered a new laptop and will be sending this one for one of the guys to take with them from UDS to figure it out | 13:32 |
| mhall119 | I wonder if 'diff' would be worth covering | 13:33 |
| * mhall119 is scrolling through ~/.bash_history | 13:33 | |
| mhall119 | oh, I need to cover apt | 13:34 |
| akgraner | mhall119, believe me those guess are looking into it...we've been through diffs, and tested every kernel from Karmic til now | 13:34 |
| akgraner | oh bash would be a good one | 13:34 |
| mhall119 | sorry, my 'diff' comment was about my CLI session, not your laptop | 13:34 |
| akgraner | also the update upgrade commands - once sec and I'll get you the one I use | 13:34 |
| mhall119 | I was assuming bash, since it's the default user shell | 13:34 |
| akgraner | mhall119, hehe no worries | 13:34 |
| mhall119 | I'm going to show some fun and useful ways to use find, grep, sed and xargs together | 13:35 |
| akgraner | crap - I just got my first fail when updating... | 13:36 |
| akgraner | Setting up virtualbox-ose (4.0.4-dfsg-1ubuntu4) ... | 13:36 |
| akgraner | * Stopping VirtualBox kernel modules [ OK ] | 13:36 |
| akgraner | * Starting VirtualBox kernel modules * No suitable module for running kernel found | 13:36 |
| akgraner | [fail] | 13:36 |
| * akgraner goes to find kernel peoples :-) | 13:37 | |
| mhall119 | dkms usually takes care of that | 13:37 |
| akgraner | mhall119, here is the other command I use - sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 13:39 |
| mhall119 | yup, gonna cover those and apt-cache too | 13:40 |
| mhall119 | I think I'm gonna cut down my list of commands, though, and spend more time showing how to combine them with pipes and redirects to do even more useful stuff | 13:41 |
| akgraner | oh that would help me for sure | 13:42 |
| akgraner | cprofitt, did you get my message about the Open Week session? | 13:42 |
| mhall119 | I can probably kill an hour just on combinations of find, xargs, and grep | 13:42 |
| cprofitt | akgraner: not yet | 13:43 |
| cprofitt | I have not checked email this morning | 13:43 |
| akgraner | nah it was a ping - basically did you still want to do a the session you added to the prep page for Open week? | 13:43 |
| cprofitt | I would not mind... what are the time slots? | 13:44 |
| mhall119 | wow, http://pablorubianes.wordpress.com/2011/04/25/community-launcher/ is pretty cool | 13:48 |
| akgraner | cprofitt, Mon - 1500 and 1600 UTC are available - Tuesday and Thursday 1600 and 1700 are open and Friday 1400 and 1500 are still open as well | 13:54 |
| cprofitt | that makes it tough as I will be at work and can not promise to not get pulled away | 13:55 |
| cprofitt | nothing later? | 13:55 |
| cprofitt | 21:00 or later | 13:56 |
| akgraner | nope it's only scheduled for 20 hours of sessions for this week - 1400 -1700 UTC... | 13:57 |
| akgraner | though we can always add an "off-schedule" or "extra" session if you'd like to still do it... | 13:59 |
| mhall119 | yay, I have cold air blowing again! | 13:59 |
| akgraner | yay! | 14:00 |
| cprofitt | akgraner: I would not mind doing that. | 14:00 |
| mhall119 | no more 80+ degrees in the house | 14:00 |
| cprofitt | the best time for me would be 9pm my time, so that would be Friday morning UTC | 14:01 |
| cprofitt | earlier and I would need to verify with my wife that she has no plans for the day in question | 14:02 |
| akgraner | cprofitt, ok I'll email you then and we can go from there | 14:02 |
| cprofitt | cool | 14:02 |
| cprofitt | akgraner: thanks for following up with me | 14:04 |
| akgraner | yep - just sent you an email - jcastro is CC'd incase I get hit by a bus or something... | 14:04 |
| cprofitt | cool | 14:05 |
| mhall119 | akgraner: have you had a chance to take Read Feeder for a spin? I know adding subscriptions wasn't working when I first set you up, but that's fixed now | 14:14 |
| akgraner | nope - doing that this afternoon when I get back from an appointment... :-) | 14:15 |
| akgraner | catching up right now - I'm amazed that being away from my computer for 48 hours on a weekend leaves me playing catch-up...hmmmm | 14:16 |
| daker | hey mhall119 | 16:51 |
| daker | is the LD services supporting the xml format ? | 16:52 |
| mhall119 | daker: LD only provides JSON | 17:19 |
| daker | ok | 17:19 |
