[00:03] nhaines - how is key commands then mouse clicks more efficient then me just clicking the workspace i want? [00:03] or mouse clicks then more mouse clicks? [00:03] seems less efficient from my use unless im just firing up supertuxkart every day all day long [00:04] of course i could put QBrew as my #1 app in natty. that would solve everything [00:07] ever since i lost my invest app on my bottom panel i have not been too thrilled. it doesnt work in classic mode either [00:08] i gave up on reporting it not working [00:08] someone kept checking my bug report to a bug report that was blank [00:08] changing, not checking [00:08] iheartubuntu: I think you'll find that Ctrl-Alt-[arrow keys] is most efficient. [00:11] if you want one click to switch to a workplace, there is an app indicator for that [00:11] https://launchpad.net/indicator-workspaces [00:12] I want to know more about Quicken for Ubuntu. === broder_ is now known as broder [00:24] nhaines: quicken for ubuntu? [00:24] crashsystems: yup. [00:25] It's mentioned here: http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/features/office-applications [00:26] nhaines: [00:26] interesting, it's not even in the repositories by default [00:29] isn't quicken one of the commercial apps that some companies use for accounting? [00:29] crashsystems: you're thinking of QuickBooks. [00:29] I also think there is one called quicken [00:30] aka http://quicken.intuit.com/ [00:30] crashsystems: that's a personal finance application, not a business finance application. [00:30] i don't see quicken in u-s-c [00:31] broder: me either. [00:31] If I can migrate my mom from Microsoft Money to Quicken, and Quicken runs on Ubuntu, then I could migrate her from Windows XP to Ubuntu. [00:32] This would be a double win, since Money is end-of-life. [00:41] It's not even listed under For Purchase [00:41] Strange... :\ [00:42] maybe quicken will pop up in the paid apps [00:42] if quickbooks pro hits ubuntu my life would be great :) [00:43] my wife is adamant about having some form of XP running someplace that has money on it [00:44] iheartubuntu: so would you say she puts her money where her mouse is? :zing: [00:49] exopc rumor was true, grantbow has one [00:49] Which rumor was that? [00:50] 18:41:05 < akk> So, I have no idea if this is true, but there's a rumor (posted to BALUG) that Intel is giving out EXOPC tablets to everyone who attends their meego developer camp tomorrow at Moscone. [00:50] ooh [00:51] meeting up with him as soon as I wrap up work, I shall steal it from him [00:51] (just kidding) [00:51] ((maybe)) [01:02] heading downstairs to begin pre-release-party adventures! === rbarot__ is now known as rbarot_ [01:32] hey all [01:32] so who is going to the Thirsty Bear tonight? [01:35] not me [01:45] grantbow and I are at our regular ubuntu hour coffee shop playing with his meego exopc [01:47] pleia2, cool, I am going to set off fairly soon [01:48] cool :) [01:48] I think my wife and a few Ubuntu folks I know are coming too [04:43] Well, I'm not at the Thirsty Bear but I *am* drinking spezi. [05:28] it was great meeting those who were there :) [05:28] sn9: some of the fl people are coming up during google i/o. think you can make it? [05:28] when? [05:28] probably going to meet somewhere near the moscone center. [05:28] sn9: not sure exactly, either may 10 or 11. [05:29] hmm, i might need a reminder [05:29] sure thing.. i'll let you know a few days before :) [06:48] How was the release party? [07:02] my computer wont update to 11.04 when i type "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" what am i doing wrong? [07:02] wrong command [07:03] it's sudo do-release-upgrade [07:03] or something like that [07:04] oh, i see. thanks. i thought what i was doing was right, then i found this online and it confirmed (well i thought it did) https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+question/154667 but still didn't work [07:19] night everyone [11:20] you may now kiss the bride/groom [11:20] Oh god... not you too [11:21] yup - i drank too much [11:21] now im nursing a big glass of water [11:21] :D [11:22] hehehe Wife woke me up for it. [11:22] how are you doing dave [11:22] these hats [11:23] Yeah... [11:23] I'm tired. Updating my server to 11.04 [11:24] how old are kate and whats his name [11:24] where did the years go [11:25] have u been to UK [11:27] ive never been to westminster [11:28] are there many changes in the server edition? [11:33] Not sure... I'll let you know. [17:18] someone mentioned in another channel that kde4 can be built with gtk instead of qt, and that compiz has been ported to windows. am i THAT out of the loop? [17:31] kde with gtk instead of qt sounds unlikely. [17:31] compiz on windows wouldn't surprise me too much. [17:32] hmm, on second though, probably it should surprise me. I guess it does sound unlikely. [17:57] compiz on windows?! o_O [18:00] I know there are some tools that can do compiz-like effects on windows, but afaik compiz itself isn't ported [18:01] sn9: ...wow, someone's not right in the head. lol. [18:01] jamalta: nice to meet you last night! [18:01] pleia2: thanks! nice to meet you too :) [18:01] sorry i had to run out so early.. it was fun to see everyone. [18:02] well, a few of you. there was too many people there, hehe [18:02] no worries, that's why we picked such a casual venue :) [18:02] yeah, the turnout was suprising to me [18:02] not as big as lucid, but lots of people I didn't expect to see :) [18:02] pleia2: that's always a good thing though! [18:02] yep [18:28] http://www.flickr.com/photos/ubuntu-us-ca/sets/72157626484097009/ [18:28] some photos from last night :) [18:30] woo! nice :) [18:34] is that a furby? [18:35] no, it's a narwhal [18:36] a furry narwhal? [18:37] yes [19:12] pleia2, how come there are no pictures of the narwhal outfit Jono was wearing ? >> https://picasaweb.google.com/tuxwingsgroup/PhotoEdits#5601069697291723874 [19:17] MarkDude: O.O [19:17] Is that real? [19:17] Oh, I get it.. his face was printed out, right? [19:19] * MarkDude used GIMP to do it [19:19] Ah... makes more sense :) [19:20] that's just scary [19:20] thats what i was thinking too [19:21] it looks like the face was cut and pasted [19:21] I was halfway thinking of pretending it was real [19:21] it was iheartubuntu [19:23] The other folks in the pics are Oakland A's players === rbarot__ is now known as rbarot_ [23:06] In case anyone is interested I just built a python google cloudprint server for ubuntu in my ppa [23:07] It is pretty sweet. Allows you to connect your cups printers to cloud print without having to run chrome all the time [23:08] cool [23:08] Been printing from my tablet all morning :) [23:10] * crashsystems wants to poke around at cloud print [23:10] * akk only turns the printer on when I'm standing next to it and about to print something, but it's fun to hear about this stuff anyway [23:11] jdeslip: oh sweet [23:11] wait, you can't run google cloud print on linux at all, can you? [23:11] nope [23:11] jdeslip: do you have the code up somewhere? i'd love to try it out sometime :) [23:11] Really? Doesn't google use mostly linux internally? [23:11] akk: i think they went with the most popular approach [23:12] but that's just a guess [23:13] when they launched it they said they were working on a linux version, but no word yet, and the docs still say "you will need to install Google Chrome on a Mac or Windows computer that's connected to your printer" [23:13] jamalta: the code is available here: https://github.com/armooo/cloudprint/ [23:14] I just patched it a little to fix a bug I found and then packaged it into my ppa [23:14] jdeslip: ah cool :) [23:14] nice [23:15] pleia2: you can run cloudprint in the linux version of chrome. You have to go to about:labs and enable cloud print proxy [23:15] ooh [23:15] But, I prefer this python script. It think it is crazy to have to have chrome running to use my printer [23:15] neat [23:15] yeah [23:16] and you can run this on login and just pipe the output somewhere if you want [23:16] * pleia2 haz no about:labs [23:16] hrm [23:16] about:flags [23:16] sorry [23:17] no cloud print proxy there [23:17] * pleia2 upgrades [23:17] chrome-stable? [23:18] Oh, I am running beta [23:18] (not the development/nightly one, but beta one) [23:21] akk: I was just thinking about nouns becoming verbs (and verbing weirds language!), such as "googling" and "xeroxing" and so forth. [23:21] akk: And it occured to me that GIMP wasn't a product whose name readily lent itself to verbing. [23:22] I say "gimping" or "gimped" pretty often. [23:23] akk: in the context of photoediting? [23:23] yes, "I gimped that image" [23:23] "I'm gimping up this year's xmas card" [23:25] How about- the image I did was GIMPtacular? [23:25] GIMPerrific [23:25] also gimptastic [23:26] Not the last one per se- that was tooo simple [23:26] I like those. [23:30] Haha, nice [23:56] My build of cloudprint has a problem... and now the launchpad is broken so can't upload the fix :( [23:59] yeah, they're working on fixing ppa uploads
