[07:45] <locodir-user> hi!
[07:46] <locodir-user> i like make a local team ubuntu
[07:47] <locodir-user> what will it take?
[07:49] <locodir-user> Hello!
[12:51] <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!
[12:52] <nhandler> Times don't work for me, sorry akgraner 
[12:53] <akgraner> nhandler, no worries...thanks for checking to see though
[12:53] <akgraner> do you have any session suggestions?
[12:55] <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...
[12:57] <nhandler> akgraner: Not right now, but I'll think about it and get back to you
[12:58] <akgraner> thanks! I have 5 sessions that are being discussed if I can get those added today we'll only need 5 more sessions...:-)
[13:09] <mhall119> akgraner: I can do either another seahorse session, or a command-line basics session
[13:09] <akgraner> mhall119, how about command line...
[13:10] <mhall119> sounds good, I'll put together a syllabus
[13:10] <mhall119> I think I'm available all week
[13:11] <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 :-/
[13:12] <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"
[13:13] <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
[13:14] <nigelb> mhall119: "Grep the sed out of your terminal"
[13:14] <nigelb> ;-)
[13:21] <mhall119> now I need ideas for what commands to cover
[13:27] <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
[13:28] <mhall119> akgraner: if you would mind, can you give me a list of some common and/or useful commands you use
[13:29] <akgraner> mhall119, cd, grep, kill
[13:30] <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
[13:31] <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
[13:32] <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
[13:33] <mhall119> I wonder if 'diff' would be worth covering
[13:33]  * mhall119 is scrolling through ~/.bash_history
[13:34] <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
[13:35] <mhall119> I'm going to show some fun and useful ways to use find, grep, sed and xargs together
[13:36] <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]
[13:37]  * akgraner goes to find kernel peoples :-)
[13:37] <mhall119> dkms usually takes care of that
[13:39] <akgraner> mhall119, here is the other command I use  - sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[13:40] <mhall119> yup, gonna cover those and apt-cache too
[13:41] <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
[13:42] <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
[13:43] <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?
[13:44] <cprofitt> I would not mind... what are the time slots?
[13:48] <mhall119> wow, http://pablorubianes.wordpress.com/2011/04/25/community-launcher/ is pretty cool
[13:54] <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
[13:55] <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?
[13:56] <cprofitt> 21:00 or later
[13:57] <akgraner> nope it's only scheduled for 20 hours of sessions for this week - 1400 -1700 UTC...
[13:59] <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!
[14:00] <akgraner> yay!
[14:00] <cprofitt> akgraner: I would not mind doing that.
[14:00] <mhall119> no more 80+ degrees in the house
[14:01] <cprofitt> the best time for me would be 9pm my time, so that would be Friday morning UTC
[14:02] <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
[14:04] <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...
[14:05] <cprofitt> cool
[14:14] <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
[14:15] <akgraner> nope  - doing that this afternoon when I get back from an appointment... :-)
[14:16] <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
[16:51] <daker> hey mhall119 
[16:52] <daker> is the LD services supporting the xml format ?
[17:19] <mhall119> daker: LD only provides JSON
[17:19] <daker> ok
