twaynepriceMorning wrst:  Got a sec?13:38
wrstyeah twayneprice what's up?13:40
twaynepricehttp://demo.moodle.net/mod/page/view.php?id=177113:41
twaynepricewrst:  I'm thinking of a different approach for the groups13:43
wrstinteresting13:45
wrstthat looks like it has all the same functionality?13:45
twaynepriceWell, the main difference is that everyone would have control of the video so if someone came late, they could just start it when they got there.13:46
wrstthat would be nice14:25
wrstand if you can do youtube stuff that would be a little easier on you too twayneprice14:25
twaynepriceExactly.  Plus no "click on the headphones" type of problem.  I would lose the ability to show presentations but I don't think that will be a big problem.14:29
wrstyeah an probably maybe an alternate way to do that over the web I'm sure14:30
twaynepriceYea, I need to find a better chat though.14:34
Xpistoswhat up peeps14:36
wrstthe chat did looka  little clunky on that one...14:41
wrsttwayneprice: looks like google plus could about do what you need14:41
wrsthey Xpistos14:41
Xpistoswhat is moodle?14:45
Xpistosis a CMS14:45
twaynepricewrst:  I do like the ability to just start chatting without registration, though.14:45
wrstyes that is nice14:46
twaynepriceXpistos: yes, it is a cms designed with classrooms in mind.15:12
Xpistosoh15:14
XpistosI am playing around with drupal myself right now15:14
Xpistoschanged my first theme15:14
Xpistosat least I think I did15:14
twaynepriceXpistos: I've never used Drupal.  I'm using Joomla, though.16:11
XpistosI may try that too but doubtful16:11
Xpistoshere is an interest question - I have a VIDEO_TS folder that was a copy of a DVD that is 7.1 GB, I need to convert it to an ISO that will fit on a standarad 4.7GB DVD but when I mkisofs -dvd-video -o, it is still 7.1. Any Ideas?16:33
cyberangerXpistos: Use a Dual-Layer DVD16:36
XpistosI don't have any. is it possible to shrink it down.16:36
cyberangeryour source DVD was likely also a Dual-Layer DVD16:36
cyberangerthat much, if by shrink you mean compress, no16:37
cyberangerif you mean delete data, can't say that'll lead to a usable dvd16:37
Xpistosno I meant compress16:39
Xpistosokay so just make the iso and get a dual layer dvd16:39
XpistosDo i need to do antyhing special to record to a DL, I hvae never done that before/16:39
cyberangera burner that supports it (anything recent should)16:43
cyberangerwith how your making iso's, I'd just do that, use wodim as the burner, "sudo wodim speed=0 /path/to/isofile.iso"16:44
cyberangerXpistos: sorry, it's just too much data for any other way to fully work17:40
cyberangerwelcome DefaultDude19317:56

wrstgreetings Unit19317:59
Unit193(Power kicked everything offline and I had to reboot for do-release-update anyway)  Thanks wrst!17:59
cyberangerUnit193: no battery backups?18:00
wrstUnit193: 11.04?18:00
Unit193cyberanger: Only one, and that's going/went on the computer that only works once in a few bootups18:00
Unit193wrst: Lubuntu 10.10 > Lubuntu 11.04 to be exact18:01
wrstcool I did several 10.10 to 11.04 upgrades with no issues barring unity but that's not so much an upgrade issue :)18:01
Unit193I've been scared to do it18:02
wrstthe base is solid just the gui that's a problem and with the fallback its not so bad even at that18:02
cyberangerUnit193: ah, yeah, I'm trying to wire everything to a backup system over time18:03
Unit193cyberanger: It's an old backup and one of the computers has a X freeze issue18:04
Unit193wrst: Not a problem with Lubuntu ;)18:04
cyberangerI like LXDE on Debian a bit more18:06
cyberangera little more basic, minimalist18:06
Unit193Copyright 2006-2008 University of Washington - Copyright 2009-2010 Re-Alpine Project  Eh?18:07
cyberangerRe-Alpine Project?18:07
Unit193cyberanger: I'm too lazy to build on Debian right now :P  (I'm also supposed to get ready 6 minutes ago...)18:08
cyberangerI'm aware of Pine & Alpine from the University of Washington18:08
cyberangerdidn't know about Re-Alpine18:08
cyberangerUnit193: they built it themselves, same ease as Lubuntu18:09
Unit193After the upgrade, when I launched alpine that was at the bottom and it said something about not using that version before18:09
cyberangerand ready for what18:09
Unit193Ready to go to the hospital18:09
cyberangerum... have fun?18:11
