dmcglone2 more days till release everybody excited?02:40
Cheri703eh02:41
canthus13Why would they release something that won't install?02:42
dmcglonehaving problems canthus13?02:45
canthus13dmcglone: Sure. it takes several hours before crashing when I try to install. And I don't appear to be the only person.02:47
canthus13https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/60129902:47
dmcgloneis it a beta release02:47
canthus13True. But it's not fixed yet, and only 2 days 'til release?02:49
Unit1933 Days02:49
dmcgloneI bet they are scrambling to fix this one02:50
canthus13I'd hope so.02:51
canthus13I may upgrade... Just as long as they keep the classic gnome option. I despise unity.02:51
dmcgloneI agree02:52
dmcglonewhat version will this release be?02:52
canthus1311.04?02:53
canthus13Or do you mean unity?02:53
dmcgloneUbuntu02:53
canthus13Ah. 11.0402:54
Cheri703I'll download it, but won't do anything beyond liveboot for QUITE a while. I just upgraded to 10.10 like a month or so ago02:57
dmcgloneok, I'm looking at all the changes that will be in it02:57
dmcgloneCheri703: I've been running 10.10 since it's release02:58
Unit193I'm running the beta (that got a bad upgrade...)02:59
dmcgloneI sure hope they don't release it with the rc kernal :-/03:00
* dmcglone is checking out fedora03:04
Unit193Why? You should take a look at Xubuntu (stay in the debian family)03:05
dmcgloneI'll check that out too03:07
Cheri703\o/ one of my packages has arrived at the post office in mansfield, one of them is in transit to mansfield, HOPEFULLY should get both tomorrow !!03:08
Unit193Packages? You didn't just get it from the repo? ;)03:08
Cheri703one is an order from amazon (ink and such), the other is MY NETBOOOOOOOK!!!!03:09
Cheri703I'm so freaking eager to get it back03:10
dmcglone8 minutes to download an ISO :-)03:13
canthus13dmcglone: Woohoo.03:13
dmcglonecanthus13: tell me about it03:14
dmcgloneI've never seen ISO's DL that fast03:14
* canthus13 has. :)03:15
canthus13all the time.03:15
* canthus13 debates upgrading to 50/3. He could use the increased upload speed....03:16
Cheri703I don't upload much03:16
dmcglonewhat tool do I use to create a install USB stick?03:16
canthus13unetbootin03:16
Cheri703are you in ubuntu now?03:17
canthus13or the usb creator in the system menu.03:17
Cheri703I use the usb creator03:17
Cheri703it's easier generally03:17
dmcgloneok I see the USB creator03:18
dmcglonedo different distro's tweek the applications to their own liking?03:20
Unit193Default applications03:20
canthus13dmcglone: most don't do it to near the extent that ubuntu does.03:21
dmcgloneIt's been so long since I've done any research. I can't even remember the last distro I used, before switching to Kubuntu, then Ubuntu03:22
dmcgloneI'm way out of touch03:23
Unit193I have a folder called ISOs that's 17.6 GB03:23
canthus13dmcglone: Hmm... I think the last distro I used before ubuntu was Gentoo.03:24
dmcglonethe startup disk creator is asking me what device to use and it only lets it be erased and my HD hdb is the only listed and no choice to change it03:27
canthus13Try unetbootin instead.03:32
dmcgloneI got it, my USB stick is actually sdb1 but now it will not let me choose an ISO. I think it only works with Ubuntu ISO's :-/03:34
dmcgloneOh wow, it will not let me choose the fedora ISO03:36
Cheri703oh, yeah, the built in one only works with ubuntu03:36
Cheri703sorry03:36
dmcglonehaha, that shady on Ubuntu's part03:37
* dmcglone is installing unetbootin03:38
canthus13unetbootin installs any ISO.03:40
dmcgloneit's working03:41
dmcglonehow shady of Ubuntu to do that :-/03:41
Cheri703eh, it's just set up to work with their stuff03:41
dmcgloneI guess. LOL03:43
Unit193Does the Ubuntu one work with persistance?03:43
dmcgloneI couldn't say, it wouldn't let me use it LOL03:44
dmcgloneI'll be back in a minute, gonna reboot03:44
Cheri703Unit193: yes, you just have to set it up that way03:45
dmcgloneOk back03:56
dmcgloneI forgot I needed to set up my wireless card03:58
dmcglonewell, I'm out all have a good one :-)04:11

paultagcanthus13: fluxbox, fbautostart, nautilus, gnome-do is what I do04:35
canthus13I'm looking for something similar to crunchbang's layout.04:35

canthus13Awesome!  Sully's gonna go to De Ja Vu before he heads to europe.  (Gonna get a pic of him in front of the sign on the way home...)22:55
canthus13Cheri703: Yeah. It sucks.22:55
Cheri703kk22:55
Cheri703my device manager is saying something about bluetooth (they replaced the netbook, so it's mildly feasible it might have it), but I dunno anything about it22:56
canthus13It might...22:56
canthus13Cheri703: paste lspci..22:57
* canthus13 has bluetooth come up for no reason on machines that don't have it, though.22:57
Cheri703hmm...it doesn't show it there22:58
Cheri703I dunno, I'm not too worried about it22:58
canthus13I think ubuntu misinterprets some wireless adapters as multifunction bluetooth/wireless cards...23:22
