| BigRedS | what did it take? | 00:21 |
| hamitron | not 100% sure | 00:21 |
| BigRedS | haha, it's annoying when that happens | 00:22 |
| hamitron | it has a xorg.conf file | 00:22 |
| hamitron | EDID dump | 00:22 |
| hamitron | the config file tells it what display to use, and to use the EDID file | 00:23 |
| BigRedS | oh, cool | 00:23 |
| BigRedS | seems almost like the prper way to do it | 00:24 |

| screen-x | morning early people :) | 06:25 |
| czajkowski | screen-x: howdy | 06:26 |
| knightwise | morning everyone | 06:26 |
| screen-x | morning czajkowski :) | 06:26 |
| screen-x | and knightwise :) | 06:26 |
| knightwise | hey screen-x czajkowski | 06:26 |
| screen-x | are you still videocasting knightwise? | 06:27 |
| knightwise | yep , got a kwtv episode standing by for this weekend | 06:27 |
| knightwise | reviewing 2 android tablets this week | 06:28 |
| czajkowski | I'd love to learn to sleep can you do a podcast on that please | 06:28 |
| screen-x | czajkowski: awwww :( | 06:28 |
| knightwise | czajkowski: i "feel your pain" (read some of your FB updates) | 06:28 |
| knightwise | i know how backache can realy drive you nuts :( | 06:28 |
| czajkowski | awake now since 4:30 | 06:29 |
| czajkowski | tis not normal after being on the beer | 06:29 |
| knightwise | cant lie down - cant sit - cant stand - cant walk kinda ache | 06:29 |
| czajkowski | no backache just wide awake | 06:29 |
| knightwise | ah | 06:29 |
| knightwise | just | 06:29 |
| knightwise | bling | 06:29 |
| knightwise | www.spacemusic.nl | 06:29 |
| czajkowski | ahh tv shows just landed down | 06:29 |
| knightwise | great podcast with soothing music | 06:29 |
| czajkowski | yay | 06:29 |
| screen-x | protip: changing the volume in gnome doesn't work when headphones are plugged into phone.. | 06:30 |
| knightwise | hmmm.. got an old eeepc here from my sis in law | 06:30 |
| knightwise | 7 inch 4gig version | 06:30 |
| knightwise | wondering what to do with it | 06:31 |
| screen-x | ooh, I've got one of those, a 701? | 06:31 |
| knightwise | yep | 06:31 |
| screen-x | I run 10.04 une on it, works well. | 06:32 |
| knightwise | and what gui ? | 06:32 |
| screen-x | netbook launcher | 06:32 |
| knightwise | as in unity ? | 06:32 |
| screen-x | no, the old one | 06:33 |
| screen-x | unity was way too slow on it. | 06:33 |
| screen-x | the UI from the old netbook remix | 06:33 |
| knightwise | ah | 06:33 |
| knightwise | i was wondering | 06:33 |
| knightwise | if i put ubuntu server on it | 06:33 |
| knightwise | and then install the "gnome shell' | 06:33 |
| knightwise | will i have gnome without any apps ? | 06:33 |
| screen-x | at work we have a couple of eeepcs that run ubuntu server and act as data loggers :) | 06:34 |
| knightwise | (as oposed to doing a sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ?) | 06:34 |
| screen-x | I've not tried installing gnome shell on a server, so I don't know which dependencies you'll end up with.. | 06:34 |
| knightwise | gnome shell is just like ... "naked gnome" .. right ? | 06:35 |
| screen-x | knightwise: not really, I think its just what the main UI is called in gnome 3. It still requires all the gnome libraries and infrastructure. | 06:36 |
| knightwise | ok | 06:36 |
| knightwise | perhaps i could try a Lubuntu | 06:36 |
| knightwise | that looks light and nice | 06:37 |
| screen-x | not a fan of UNR? | 06:37 |
| screen-x | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UNR | 06:37 |
| knightwise | not really | 06:37 |
| screen-x | fair enough | 06:38 |
| AlanBell | knightwise: yeah, that will basically work | 06:40 |
| knightwise | Hey AlanBell | 06:40 |
| AlanBell | you will be missing the theme though | 06:40 |
| knightwise | ah , but thats not really a problem | 06:40 |
| AlanBell | I have done apt-get install gedit on servers before | 06:40 |
| knightwise | so if i'm ever in a pinch and need a simple gui for a server , (without all the apps) i can just try that | 06:41 |
| AlanBell | hauls in a most of an empty gnome desktop | 06:41 |
| knightwise | and "roll my own" selection of required packaged ? | 06:41 |
| AlanBell | GDM will be a bit broken | 06:41 |
| knightwise | but , als a "thin clienty thing" it would be ok | 06:41 |
| AlanBell | sure | 06:41 |
| knightwise | i would just install NXfree client on it and have it connect to my nx server in the house | 06:42 |
| AlanBell | and you can just install bits until the stuff you want works | 06:42 |
| knightwise | Thats about what i'm looking for :) | 06:42 |
| knightwise | Thanx guyz :) might give it a spin this afternoon | 06:42 |
| AlanBell | you may get to the "sod it, just install ubuntu-desktop" stage | 06:46 |
| knightwise | AlanBell: true | 06:48 |
| knightwise | i'll tinker in a VM first , see how i like it | 06:48 |
| knightwise | VM running now. | 07:01 |

| screen-x | Since upgrading to 10.04, gnome print dialogue boxes take a while to become responsive, with text in the status column saying "waiting for status from printer" or something like that. Any way to disable that, I dont want to know the status of the printer, I want to queue a document to it regardless of it's status.. | 08:06 |

| DJones | Good, are you still work hunting | 08:26 |
| czajkowski | yup | 08:26 |
| DJones | Not so good from that point of view then | 08:28 |
| DJones | Had your contract already come to an end, or is this in anticipation of it coming to an end | 08:29 |
| knightwise | hmm .. lubuntu looks pretty good at first sight | 08:30 |
| BigRedS | lubuntu's lxde isn't it? | 08:35 |
| DJones | knightwise: I keep meaning to have a look at that | 08:35 |
| BigRedS | openbox is awesome, if you can be arsed to configure it | 08:35 |
| mrwarmth | knightwise, I still can't believe they called it that | 08:35 |
| BigRedS | and lxde does a reasonable job of trivialising that | 08:35 |
| knightwise | it looks fairly ok ! | 08:37 |

| davmor2 | morning czajkowski JGJones | 10:02 |
| JGJones | As just wondering how you access the storage on the tablet via USB? | 10:02 |
| JGJones | Ah it use MTP...I see there's a mtpfs (FUSE for MTP)...off I go... | 10:15 |
| davmor2 | JGJones: Ubuntu should just mount it as a visible drive | 10:21 |
| JGJones | davmor2 - sadly it doesn't | 10:21 |
| davmor2 | JGJones: Is it android based? | 10:22 |
| davmor2 | JGJones: if so there maybe a mode switcher on the device | 10:24 |
| Oli`` | popey: helmet firmware? | 10:50 |
| MartijnVdS | Oli``: you know, the stuff that makes it firm.. | 10:52 |
| Oli`` | popey's tweet was: Overheard in the office. "Ooh! There's new firmware for my helmet!" | 10:53 |
| Oli`` | Extremely curious to know what on earth that could have meant | 10:53 |
| Oli`` | Unless it was firm-wear.. Which would be comparatively dull. | 10:54 |
| popey | Oli``: motorcycle helmet | 10:59 |
| mrwarmth | I think helmet firmware was a plot point in Lawnmower Man | 10:59 |
| BigRedS | bluetooth thingy? | 11:01 |
| popey | ya | 11:01 |
| popey | got a headset on so he can make calls on the road and listen to tomtom thingy | 11:01 |

| popey | i want to know what this new asus thing is going to be running | 11:10 |
| gord | oh cool, if your sshed in somewhere and the client machine suspends, it somehow keeps the ssh session open - suspend is great, why didn't anyone tell me before ;) | 11:14 |
| screen-x | gord: that must depend on the session timeout /keepalive settings on the server, and how long you suspend for | 11:15 |
| gord | a while | 11:16 |
| BigRedS | yeah, that suddenly started happening for me the other day | 11:23 |
| BigRedS | I've no idea what I changed, but it's awesome | 11:23 |
| BigRedS | I resumed an ssh session from ~36hrs after suspending my laptop | 11:23 |
| screen-x | BigRedS: wow, thats long than I assumed would work. | 11:28 |
| BigRedS | yeah, me too | 11:32 |
| BigRedS | I've not made any config changes to sshd or the client, though | 11:33 |
| BigRedS | so I'm not really sure how that worked. Unless it was done by the router I was using or something | 11:33 |

| oimon | is fglrx the proprietary ati driver? | 11:54 |
| MartijnVdS | oimon: it is | 11:54 |
| MartijnVdS | oimon: don't use unless 100% necessary | 11:54 |
| oimon | MartijnVdS: free driver is causing problems | 11:55 |
| oimon | but fglrx won't install | 11:55 |
| oimon | well, it install, but still shows radeon in lsmod list | 11:55 |
| MartijnVdS | oimon: are you using jockey-gtk? | 11:55 |
| MartijnVdS | (you should be) | 11:55 |
| oimon | shows no properiaty driver | 11:55 |
| MartijnVdS | then fglrx doesn't support that chip anymore | 11:56 |
| oimon | grrrbooo | 11:56 |
| oimon | seriously? | 11:56 |
| MartijnVdS | seriously | 11:56 |
| * oimon hasn't used a machine with ati in for 10 years | 11:56 | |
| oimon | i'm screwed then | 11:56 |
| MartijnVdS | The proprietary driver supports the newest few generations, and that's it | 11:56 |

| MartijnVdS | oimon: in a package.. no idea which | 12:09 |
| MartijnVdS | !info radeondump | 12:09 |
| lubotu3 | Package radeondump does not exist in natty | 12:09 |
| MartijnVdS | oimon: or radeontool - utility to control ATI Radeon backlight functions on laptops | 12:10 |
| MartijnVdS | I think it's in that package | 12:10 |
| MartijnVdS | oimon: oh no.. it's "special" -- see http://who.is.free.fr/dokuwiki/doku.php/xrandr (look for "radeondump") | 12:10 |
| BigRedS | anyone know of any good docs for simple-cdd? | 12:14 |
| BigRedS | the page on the debian wiki is rather terse... | 12:14 |
| MartijnVdS | BigRedS: what is it? | 12:15 |
| BigRedS | MartijnVdS: for building mildly custome debian install cds | 12:16 |
| BigRedS | seems to be the tool for doing same with ubuntu, too, which is handy | 12:16 |
| BigRedS | I just want additional packages by default, and a couple of extra repos (for now), and following the wiki produces an error on which my google fu is failing :( | 12:17 |
| BigRedS | http://wiki.debian.org/Simple-CDD/Howto is the wiki | 12:17 |
| MartijnVdS | BigRedS: I'd use UCK for that | 12:18 |
| BigRedS | MartijnVdS: oooh | 12:19 |
| BigRedS | I do need to do this to debian, too, though. and ideally debian first | 12:20 |
| oimon | MartijnVdS: do u have a copy of radeondump on your box? the build is failing :( | 12:20 |
| MartijnVdS | oimon: no, I don't have that machine anymore | 12:21 |
| oimon | ok | 12:21 |

| shauno | finally ordered an ssd for my lappy. stoked :D | 14:13 |
| screen-x | shauno: which one? | 14:14 |
| shauno | an owc one .. because they beat their firmware into playing well with the trim-less osx | 14:15 |
| shauno | (and they bundle a handy kit to let me replace the dvd with a drive, so I don't have to give up my spindle) | 14:15 |
| screen-x | sounds good | 14:16 |
| screen-x | is that for a macbook pro? | 14:16 |
| shauno | figure it makes more sense to get rid of the dvd, rather than give up 750Gb of storage | 14:17 |
| shauno | yeah | 14:17 |
| screen-x | yeah, I wish manufacturers would stop putting optical drives in.. they have done their time. | 14:17 |
| screen-x | I didn't know you could replace the DVD drive in an MBP with another disk, thats a great idea. | 14:17 |
| gord | optical drives are good for "normal" people | 14:18 |
| gord | you can watch dvd's and games and music and stuff | 14:18 |
| screen-x | gord: but thats what the tubes are for | 14:18 |
| gord | good luck getting a good movie watching thing | 14:20 |
| shauno | screen-x: there's a couple different companies that do them. optibay's another that comes to mind | 14:20 |
| shauno | I got an adaptor to replace where the dvd is now, and an external enclosure for the dvd | 14:20 |
| shauno | so I can still use the dvd, it's just no longer internal. which is fine, since I barely use it week-to-week, let alone day-to-day | 14:21 |
| screen-x | yeah, in my thinkpad, I have a battery in the ultrabay most of the time | 14:23 |
| shauno | that's one option I really wish apple did. but apparently seams are the devil, or closely related to | 14:24 |
| andylockran | that's kewl shauno | 14:25 |
| andylockran | I just put a 120G OCZ drive in mine. | 14:25 |
| andylockran | but took out my 350G standard | 14:26 |
| andylockran | would have been good to know I could have replaced the dvd | 14:26 |
| shauno | that's what I'm trying to avoid. since this is my main machine, going from 750Gb to 120Gb would be crippling | 14:26 |
| andylockran | I don't have that much stuff to be honest | 14:29 |
| andylockran | Come into the office and connect to the network for files | 14:29 |
| shauno | I'm a hoarder :/ | 14:32 |
| shauno | I'm glad it's all just data, else I'd be a genuine crazy cat lady | 14:33 |
| BigRedS | yeah, I've a 200GB disk in this laptop, that represents approximately infinite space as far as I'm concerned | 14:36 |
| shauno | 200 I could fill with sensible things, before I start moving onto my stash of music & such | 14:39 |
| shauno | last time I looked my photos folder was around 73GB | 14:39 |
| shauno | heh, 4th minecraft update in one day. glad I'm stuck at work sitting this one out | 14:40 |
| popey | heh | 14:43 |
| shauno | dude's gotta learn to ignore the rabid masses a lil, and release when it's closer to ready | 14:44 |
| oimon | anyone use numpy and scipy? | 15:18 |
| screen-x | oimon: I used a few functions from scipy.stats, but haven't used either very much | 15:21 |
| dogmatic69 | anyone know if its possible to copy music direct to an iphone on ubuntu? | 15:26 |
| dogmatic69 | got it working so i can browse the folders | 15:26 |
| Azelphur | dogmatic69: I'm pretty sure rythmbox can do it | 15:26 |
| dogmatic69 | music is not in rhythmbox | 15:26 |
| Azelphur | although one would ask why you have an iphone in the first place ;) | 15:26 |
| dogmatic69 | > android :) | 15:26 |
| Azelphur | clearly confused, you are :p | 15:27 |
| dogmatic69 | hehe | 15:27 |
| safiyyah | DJones, that worked. just go to .skype in home, and remove the .xml file | 15:38 |
| safiyyah | DJones, thank you | 15:38 |
| MichealH | popey, ping? | 16:32 |
| BakedBean | On 11.04 how do I assign applications to particular workspaces on startup ? | 16:45 |
| Azelphur | hmm, I'm running screen -d -m <command> and it doesn't seem to be launching the application. What am I doing wrong? :( | 17:00 |
| * bigcalm scratches his head | 17:02 | |
| bigcalm | Anybody got symlinks working in samba shares? | 17:02 |
| Azelphur | oh, it is launching it, it just randomly exits half way through the bash script for no apparent reason. | 17:02 |
| Azelphur | \o/ | 17:02 |
| oimon | bigcalm: have you got follow symlinks =yes in your smbd.conf? | 17:03 |
| bigcalm | No | 17:04 |
| ubuntucork | Azelphur: by default ubuntu does not use bash but rather a *bash* compatable shell | 17:04 |
| oimon | bigcalm: http://superuser.com/questions/128716/ubuntu-latest-samba-version-symlinks-no-longer-work-on-share-mounted-in-window | 17:04 |
| Azelphur | ubuntucork: ah I'm starting to see what's going on, it's not loading the required env variables so the script is failing | 17:04 |
| ubuntucork | Azelphur: you need to install bash specifically to retest it, the version of the shell ubuntu uses is not 100% bash compatable | 17:05 |
| Azelphur | yep, screen bash /usr/bin/mine saves the day :D | 17:05 |
| Azelphur | ubuntucork: ty :p | 17:05 |
| ubuntucork | Azelphur: ahhh env variables...sheesh lol. :) | 17:05 |
| Azelphur | indeed | 17:05 |
| ubuntucork | Still on 10.04 and counting down to 12.04 when Stability returns(crosses fingers, walks room the backwards while incanting the Lords prayer, and burning incense and dancing a jig) | 17:07 |
| Azelphur | ubuntucork: I run a quad screen setup, I don't get stability anywhere. :( | 17:07 |
| ubuntucork | 12.04 equals shiny new laptop with all the bells and whistles. Well laptop is vague term...power station in a luggable form factor :P | 17:08 |
| Azelphur | I have one of those | 17:08 |
| ubuntucork | Azelphur: stop showing off hehehehe.....have one pc in storage, laptop is my main workhorse and its so old only a few keys still have logos on them | 17:08 |
| Azelphur | power stations in a luggable form factors are awesome | 17:08 |
| Azelphur | hehe, that's all I had too :D | 17:09 |
| * Azelphur used to run off a P4 1.6ghz laptop that belonged to a school and had been decomissioned as beyond economical repair | 17:09 | |
| Azelphur | had busted in usb ports and scratches all over :D | 17:09 |
| ubuntucork | And i wont trade it in for two years as it is working 100% perfectly both hard and software | 17:09 |
| ubuntucork | no everything 100% working | 17:09 |
| ubuntucork | It even convinced my gf to swithch from Win7 to lucid for playing her games on :-) Oddly they run faster now! | 17:10 |
| ging | what games are these, didnt think many ran on linux | 17:11 |
| BigRedS | wine/xover-office sort of helps some of them | 17:11 |
| ubuntucork | I am thinking for my replacement I want a quad core rig and dual drives, big screen, like the alienware rigs. Save save...Save. sAve.....shi***** Tax tax tax tax tax...... | 17:11 |
| Azelphur | ubuntucork: the alienware rigs are overpriced, you should custom build | 17:11 |
| Azelphur | I just sold my old quad core rig a couple months ago :) | 17:11 |
| ubuntucork | for her, mostly her facebook games, for me, counterstrike(i am not allowed to shoot the idiots i meet daily, oddly enough) | 17:11 |
| ubuntucork | not a desktop, a laptop version Azelphur | 17:12 |
| Azelphur | ah :) | 17:12 |
| Azelphur | ubuntucork: what source or 1.6? | 17:12 |
| ubuntucork | 1.6 more fun | 17:12 |
| Azelphur | hehe oldschool | 17:12 |
| Azelphur | I used to run a CS:S server, now I run some TF2 servers :) | 17:12 |
| ubuntucork | yup i jump for joy 6 months *after* a LTS release, thats how old school I am :) | 17:13 |
| ubuntucork | TF2??? | 17:13 |
| Azelphur | team fortress 2, made by the same people who make CS | 17:13 |
| Azelphur | it's good stuff :D | 17:13 |
| ubuntucork | Dont have time with www....wwwwww.....wwww....flog it. the four letter swear word starting with "wo" ending in "rk" | 17:13 |
| Azelphur | hehe | 17:14 |
| bigcalm | popey: I hope Hayley don't mind my addiction spilling over: http://discworld.cuth.eu/dump/IMG_20110526_164526.jpg | 17:14 |
| ubuntucork | bigcalm: lol!! | 17:14 |
| Azelphur | ubuntucork: I run a pretty big gaming community, a lot of us are Ubuntu users / wine users :) | 17:14 |
| * bigcalm likes wine ;) | 17:15 | |
| ubuntucork | ah cool....Sorry Im not a gaming geek, but I know lots are, and I can run almost anything in wine these days except dopey hardware stuff | 17:15 |
| Azelphur | indeed, wine is awesome | 17:15 |
| ubuntucork | I run internet exploder to test various sites..... | 17:16 |
| Azelphur | I do all my gaming in Linux :) | 17:16 |
| bigcalm | Still too early to drink though :( | 17:16 |
| ubuntucork | different versions of the browser | 17:16 |
| ubuntucork | cant do that on the real thing :P | 17:16 |
| bigcalm | That said, 5.12pm!! | 17:16 |
| ubuntucork | bigcalm: thats gone past beer o clock in my part of the world | 17:16 |
| * Azelphur really needs to take a better picture of his gaming rig some time, http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3832397/Photos/May%202011/IMG_20110511_172337.jpg | 17:16 | |
| Azelphur | that ones so dark | 17:16 |
| Azelphur | and my case has a dead fan xD | 17:17 |
| Azelphur | I also need to shorten that ridiculously long pip | 17:18 |
| Azelphur | +e | 17:18 |
| ubuntucork | I want something like a 16 core low power high GHZ rig, something like the new ARMS coming out, nice and quiet...no need for games here, well much. A fast NVidia chip will do. Just your average basic quick porn station basically but faster disk. more ram and no hassles with unity..oops sorry about the last one :P | 17:19 |
| bigcalm | Azelphur: does the joggler get any use? | 17:19 |
| Azelphur | bigcalm: not currenty, I've been so busy on other projects I havn't had time for it | 17:19 |
| Azelphur | slowly starting to clear my schedule though :D | 17:19 |
| bigcalm | Azelphur: I know that feeling :S | 17:19 |
| ubuntucork | Azelphur: we cal that ethnic cleansing round here ;-) | 17:20 |
| Azelphur | atm I've been playing "how much can we overclock the 5870 without it breaking" | 17:20 |
| czajkowski | ubuntucork: are you from Cork ? | 17:20 |
| ubuntucork | start at middle management, and work your way to HR for bonus points :P | 17:20 |
| Azelphur | hehe | 17:20 |
| Azelphur | I've got a 5870 running at 975Mhz (the "max" is 900Mhz, stock is 850) | 17:20 |
| ubuntucork | czajkowski: Peoples Republic of Cork, yes. Formerly one of the 26 counties under tyranical dublin control. Now a free state :) | 17:20 |
| czajkowski | ubuntucork: ah yes with an answer like that you are from Cork | 17:21 |

| * czajkowski peers at davmor2 you behave! | 17:23 | |
| ubuntucork | I got out in early 2008 before the banking crisis, as anybody with half a brain could see that house prices at 12-15 times earnings and 125% mortgages was not sustainable | 17:23 |
| ubuntucork | czajkowski: I wll come in to ask them how things are. Cork( centre of known universe) has a great linux scene :) | 17:25 |
| czajkowski | it has CLUG which is a ml to meet up to drink | 17:25 |
| czajkowski | :) | 17:25 |
| ubuntucork | sure what else do you want on a Thursday night in November?! | 17:25 |
| davmor2 | czajkowski: What? | 17:25 |
| czajkowski | davmor2: Cork Linux User group | 17:26 |
| czajkowski | there is ILUG and CLUG | 17:26 |

| brobostigon | ubuser: grub is ubuntu's boot manager, you need grubto bootubuntu. | 17:59 |
| MartijnVdS | (or Windows, or something else) | 17:59 |

| JGJones | OK... | 18:28 |
| JGJones | transmission is taking up 99% CPU even though it's in a zombie state... | 18:28 |
| MartijnVdS | JGJones: use ps fax to check what its parent process is | 19:22 |
| MartijnVdS | JGJones: then kill that | 19:22 |
| MartijnVdS | (that should re-parent the zombie to init, which will reap it) | 19:22 |
| JGJones | it appears to be gnome-session | 19:23 |
| JGJones | yup it's gnome-session | 19:25 |
| JGJones | whose parent is then gdm-binary | 19:25 |
| JGJones | so in short...kill GUI to kill transmission | 19:25 |
| MartijnVdS | JGJones: you can also see what's keeping it going | 19:26 |
| MartijnVdS | JGJones: because eating 100% sounds like not being zombie | 19:26 |
| MartijnVdS | but a reboot should do it :P | 19:27 |
| JGJones | Wayhey, it takes me back to my Windows days. | 19:27 |
| MartijnVdS | JGJones: logout/login should be enough though | 19:27 |
| JGJones | "yup a reboot'll fix that" | 19:27 |
| * MartijnVdS had to reboot, because of a broken X driver :( | 19:27 | |
| MartijnVdS | X worked fine.. mouse cursor was OK | 19:28 |
| MartijnVdS | but everything was black on black... | 19:28 |
| JGJones | nah, something up with transmission...I've only just noticed that it's doing this everytime I reboot so I'll remove it from start up. | 19:28 |
| JGJones | The only thing it's doing is just seeding backtrack | 19:28 |
| MartijnVdS | (so it feels very HHGTTG: "Every time I press one of these black controls, labelled in black on a black background, a little black light lights up black to let me know I've done it.") | 19:30 |
| JGJones | What's wrong with that? | 19:35 |
| JGJones | Black is all the rage these day isn't it? | 19:35 |
| MartijnVdS | JGJones: yes, but I prefer some contrast on my screen | 19:35 |

| JGJones_ | ok...transmission now have no parent processes at all, and is in a zombie state and is still chewing up 100% CPU and still can't be killed | 21:13 |
| JGJones_ | even trying sudo kill -9 processID doesn't kill it off completely | 21:14 |
| MartijnVdS | JGJones_: cool.. | 21:14 |
| MartijnVdS | JGJones_: do you have NFS? | 21:15 |
| MartijnVdS | or some other network file system | 21:15 |
| MartijnVdS | it might be waiting on that | 21:15 |
| JGJones_ | it's a zombie that can't be killed. I'm pretty sure that doesn't happen in The Walking Dead... | 21:15 |

| MartijnVdS | hardware). It's waiting for the call to return but, for whatever | 21:15 |
| MartijnVdS | reason, it doesn't. Therefore controll is never returned to the | 21:15 |
| MartijnVdS | process to receive the signal. | 21:15 |
| MartijnVdS | </forum-post> | 21:16 |
| JGJones_ | no NFS | 21:16 |
| MartijnVdS | JGJones_: strace -p ? | 21:16 |
| MartijnVdS | (sudo strace -p pid_of_process) | 21:16 |
| JGJones_ | ta...will try that in a bit, I'm needed downstairs atm. | 21:16 |
| MartijnVdS | good luck | 21:16 |
| * MartijnVdS is off to bed (yay time zones :)) | 21:17 | |
| JGJones_ | ta for help and nighty night | 21:18 |
| gneel | I have a weird NFS problem | 21:53 |
| gneel | I mount a couple of shares from my NAS, in fstab. | 21:53 |
| gneel | I can write to them as my normal user, but not using 'sudo' | 21:54 |
| gneel | Anyone have any ideas? | 21:54 |
| oimon | gneel: what are the mount options? | 21:56 |
| gneel | rw,soft,intr | 21:56 |
| oimon | http://www.centos.org/docs/4/4.5/Security_Guide/s2-server-nfs-noroot.html | 21:57 |
| oimon | this explains the problem i believe | 21:58 |
| gneel | oimon: thanks, I'll take a look at that | 21:58 |
| SamJ190494 | is there any way i can force my laptops fans to run faster?? | 21:58 |
| gneel | Tried google, and didn't have the right fu | 21:58 |
| oimon | gneel: it's not recommended though | 21:58 |
| BigRedS | does ubuntu have a /etc/mysql/debian.cnf? | 21:58 |
| oimon | because any user can boot off a live cd, gain root access and edit files on your nfs | 21:59 |
| BigRedS | Oh, wait, I'm on a ubuntu. yes it does | 21:59 |
| oimon | BigRedS: talking to yourself again:? | 21:59 |
| BigRedS | oimon: yeah :) | 21:59 |
| gneel | oimon: I've got an encrypted home, but I guess that wouldn't help in that situation | 21:59 |
| gneel | Thanks for the link anyway. | 22:00 |

| oimon | i thought it was quiet in here | 22:03 |
| ubuser | i have finally got my computer running it is an older version of ubuntu | 23:10 |
| ubuser | i have tried burning the iso's for better version but they freeze when im installing | 23:10 |
| hamitron | what sort of computer is it? | 23:10 |
| ubuser | so, i am trying to figure out is there a way to check to see if ur drivers are good on ubuntu | 23:10 |
| ubuser | and i am having trouble with sound | 23:10 |
| ikonia | ubuser: what was the point of joining #ubuntu-ops making a pointless comment and exiting ? | 23:10 |
| ubuser | i got java and flash working in mozilla, finally | 23:10 |
| ubuser | i got banned from ubuntu | 23:11 |
| ikonia | ahhh, so you want support in here as you got banned | 23:11 |
| ubuser | idleones banned me | 23:11 |
| ikonia | so if you rejoin #ubuntu-ops we can try to resolve that | 23:11 |
| ubuser | he told me it wasnt for support | 23:11 |
| ikonia | I doubt #ubuntu-uk will support you as you got banned | 23:11 |
| ikonia | #ubuntu is for support, | 23:11 |
| ubuser | i got banned | 23:11 |
| ikonia | if you join #ubuntu-ops we can try to resolve you're ban and get you back into #ubuntu | 23:11 |
| ubuser | can anyone help me with my sound? | 23:12 |
| ikonia | that seems bette to me, as a banned american user in #ubuntu-uk won't get much support | 23:12 |
| ubuser | i have followed the directions given to me in that chatroom and they were all fails | 23:12 |
| ubuser | better than that room | 23:12 |
| ikonia | ubuser: I'll ask you one more time then leave you to the silence you'll get in here | 23:13 |
| ikonia | ubuser: if you join #ubuntu-ops again we can try to resolve the ban you have in #ubuntu and get you back in #ubuntu for support | 23:13 |
| hamitron | why would he get silence? :/ | 23:14 |
| bigcalm | How do you find out which users have cronjobs? | 23:21 |
| mgdm | bigcalm: ls /var/spool/cron | 23:21 |
| mgdm | bigcalm: might be /var/spool/cron/crontabs, actually | 23:21 |
| mgdm | ah yes, the latter | 23:22 |
| bigcalm | Depends upon the system | 23:22 |
| bigcalm | /var/spool/cron was right for this one | 23:22 |
| bigcalm | Cheers, mgdm | 23:22 |
| mgdm | nae bother | 23:23 |
| bigcalm | I need to sort a sub-array within an array based upon a deep field | 23:26 |
| bigcalm | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/613507/ | 23:26 |
| mgdm | usort()? | 23:26 |
| bigcalm | For some reason those are out of date order | 23:26 |
| mgdm | I did something similar the other day | 23:27 |
| bigcalm | Ta, I'll take a look | 23:27 |
| mgdm | you write a function that returns -1, 0, or 1 based on two array values | 23:27 |
| mgdm | if you're on PHP 5.3 you can use a closure ;) | 23:28 |
| bigcalm | The CakePHP 1.1 project won't run on 5.3 | 23:31 |
| mgdm | O_O | 23:31 |
| bigcalm | <?php function cmp($a, $b) { return strcmp($a["id"], $b["id"]); } usort($client['Payment'], "cmp"); ?> | 23:33 |
| bigcalm | Perfect | 23:33 |
| bigcalm | Yeah, CakePHP v1.1 is known not to run on PHP 5.3 | 23:34 |
| bigcalm | It stops me from updating my dev server | 23:34 |
| mgdm | CodeIgniter 2.0 throws some E_STRICT warnings on 5.3 | 23:35 |
| mgdm | I should fix them and send a pull request | 23:35 |
| bigcalm | SLEEP! | 23:43 |
