| Obsidian1723 | Checkout Ubuntu Gnome Remix (UGR) http://ugr.teampr0xy.net/ and you can have your choice of gnome2 or gnome3 to install on your system. Currently, it's just a script; but apparently they are going to release an ISO soon so it will become a full-blown Linux distro. | 05:39 |

| FloatingGoat | Hey, what do you guys think of locally advertising ubuntu? | 12:14 |
| FloatingGoat | hello? | 17:52 |
| ColinHarrington | hey | 17:54 |
| Takyoji | Anyone ready for World IPv6 Day? | 19:37 |
| Takyoji | I'LL KEEL YOU ALL IF YOU AREN'T. | 19:37 |
| Takyoji | I finally figured out how to properly configure the gogoc (gogo6) client a few days ago, as I had trouble with it previously. Was using it for IPv6 access from a friend's house to access my desktop at home which is connected over 6in4 | 19:38 |
| FloatingGoat | hello? | 20:13 |
| Takyoji | Less than 3 hours. | 20:13 |
| FloatingGoat | I have an idea | 20:13 |
| FloatingGoat | for this loco team | 20:13 |
| Takyoji | you'll just have to shove others to do it, since nobody really facilitates. | 20:14 |
| FloatingGoat | :( do you think it'd be any possible to raise money to get a ubuntu ad on local TV? | 20:14 |
| Takyoji | Most people view TV advertisement for Ubuntu as being ineffective; especially that some may even think it's a scam or similar. | 20:15 |
| Takyoji | It's word-of-mouth that's considered most effective. | 20:15 |
| FloatingGoat | yeah | 20:16 |
| Takyoji | My idea of spreading Ubuntu is in a more discreet fashion | 20:16 |
| FloatingGoat | Itry to get ubuntu around but its not the easiest thing | 20:16 |
| Takyoji | Mainly of finding retail stores willing to help Ubuntu users in regards of their products, and having them listed on an online directory. But then also having "We help Ubuntu users here!" at the entrance of participating retail store's entrances or checkouts. | 20:18 |
| FloatingGoat | those are good ideas | 20:19 |
| Takyoji | I just haven't gotten around to it yet | 20:19 |
| Takyoji | So having the name itself out there in the public will help raise curiosity and all | 20:19 |
| FloatingGoat | I have an idea, we get an old portable DVD player, put in a DVD looping an ubuntu ad, go to some local store and give them a bunch of CD's for free to put in front of it, or maybe even sell. | 20:21 |
| FloatingGoat | or we could get small online business to hand the CD's out with their products, theyd have the chance to get picked up by dozens of ubuntu and linux blogs that eat that kind of stuff up. | 20:23 |
| FloatingGoat | this is all really far fetched, but we aren't going to get anywhere doing nothing :\ | 20:24 |
| Takyoji | This group does nothing because there isn't any leadership. :P | 20:26 |
| FloatingGoat | I AM NOW THE LEADER! | 20:27 |
| FloatingGoat | I wonder if it costs money to be in a parade | 20:28 |
| FloatingGoat | could pass out CD's there, that would be kinda useless though | 20:29 |
| FloatingGoat | hmm if I had a lappy I could stand around showing people about it. and handing out CD's | 20:30 |
| Takyoji | I find the easiest way of finding interested folks is through providing technical support. :P | 20:34 |
| FloatingGoat | yeah yeah! | 20:36 |
| FloatingGoat | I will offer it | 20:36 |
| Takyoji | and sometimes find those pissed off with it; last person I helped was going to flee to just getting a Mac because of the hell they were having just to check email and browse the internet | 20:37 |
| FloatingGoat | team viewer for the win | 20:37 |
| FloatingGoat | hi rlaager | 21:15 |
| rlaager | hello | 21:15 |
| rlaager | FloatingGoat: ? | 21:16 |
| ColinHarrington | when is ipv6 day? | 21:19 |
| ColinHarrington | And its Tomorrow june 8th | 21:21 |
| ColinHarrington | http://www.worldipv6day.org/. | 21:21 |
| Takyoji | World IPv6 Day starts in less than 2 hours | 21:22 |
| ColinHarrington | Whats the effect? | 21:22 |
| Takyoji | as current UTC time is 20:22 | 21:22 |
| Takyoji | Gmail, Google, Facebook, and so on finally just add their IPv6 to their DNS | 21:23 |
| Takyoji | rather than having to use alternate domains like ipv6.google.com and so on | 21:23 |
| ColinHarrington | Ok, so they'll be addressable via ipv6, and that shouldn't bother any users though huh? | 21:24 |
| Takyoji | Shouldn't; unless if you actually have native or tunnelled IPv6 | 21:24 |
| Takyoji | and if you don't have IPv6, then get a tunnel and bug your ISP for providing IPv6, to participate. :P | 21:25 |
| ColinHarrington | I currently have both 4 and 6 addresses | 21:26 |
| ColinHarrington | is there a way to disable ipv4 in Ubuntu temporarily? | 21:27 |
| Takyoji | http://ipv6.ipv6eyechart.ripe.net/ | 21:27 |
| Takyoji | Might be able to remove the IPv4 address you have associated. | 21:27 |
| Takyoji | but only if you have DNS servers set that are accessible over IPv6 | 21:28 |
| FloatingGoat | rlaager: sorry :( | 22:34 |
| FloatingGoat | im sooo derped right now | 22:35 |
