aznraver2k | Hi Everyone, I'm having trouble hibernating my Ubuntu 10.04 LTS x64 machine. It will either restart or shutdown but completely forget the state. If I try to suspend, it will just restart and forget the state. Does anyone know a fix or perhaps point me to logs where I can diagnois the problem? Thanks. | 00:42 |

stlsaint | aznraver2k: quick response, try checking launchpad for bugs with this issue, i do not run 64 bit myself | 00:44 |

kristian-aalborg | hi ppl | 11:12 |
kristian-aalborg | to sum up... dd should *always* be cool for ubuntu ISO's? | 11:12 |
kristian-aalborg | when putting them on an usb pen, that is | 11:12 |
stlsaint | kristian-aalborg: i have never used destroy data to put a iso on a usb :D | 11:12 |
kristian-aalborg | stlsaint, hurm | 11:24 |
kristian-aalborg | it's the "de facto linux method", I think | 11:24 |
stlsaint | kristian-aalborg: no the heck it isnt (not for me at least) | 11:28 |
stlsaint | its handy if you have no way to install say unetbootin but other than that i use dd for drive management | 11:28 |
kristian-aalborg | good for that also | 11:31 |
kristian-aalborg | I believe Debian works the best with dd, that's why I'm asking | 11:34 |
kristian-aalborg | but yes, I find unetbootin more user friendly | 11:34 |
stlsaint | kristian-aalborg: meh, to each his own, the beauty of linux...options | 11:42 |
kristian-aalborg | the beauty and the beast, more like it... there's a lack of uniformity now and then, this being one of those occasions | 11:43 |
stlsaint | aye, but uniformity is a big downfall for M$ as we see ;) | 11:45 |
kristian-aalborg | two-edged sword... | 11:46 |
kristian-aalborg | some of the *nix inconsistencies are lame, though... I don't see why everything can't be in the same /dev/ locations in all distros, for instance | 11:47 |
akshatj | stlsaint, why you use M$? | 12:00 |
* akshatj is a little high on caffeine | 12:00 | |

kristian-aalborg | how do y'all read .doc files? | 18:47 |
kristian-aalborg | I just opened one in Google Docs... it's okay-ish, but is there something that's closer to 100%? | 18:47 |
nlsthzn | LiobreOffice | 18:48 |
nlsthzn | *LibreOffice | 18:48 |
kristian-aalborg | nlsthzn, better than OO? | 19:13 |
nlsthzn | Same at the moment... just mentioned Libre as that is the one now shipping with Ubuntu :) | 19:16 |
nlsthzn | kristian-aalborg: ^ | 19:16 |
kristian-aalborg | ok | 19:18 |
kristian-aalborg | I'm not sure if I fell like installing that piece of bloat | 19:18 |
kristian-aalborg | but thanks | 19:18 |
nlsthzn | kristian-aalborg: define bloat? | 19:19 |
kristian-aalborg | 300 megs? | 19:20 |
nlsthzn | Well to open the docs I assume you only need the writer and not the full suite | 19:22 |
Unit193 | OpenOffice didn't have the Go-OO features and LibreOffice has done some updates/added some import filters (it can read more files) I think it has done some speed changes | 19:28 |

stlsaint | philipballew: are you aware that that app you wanted turned into a .deb hasnt been touched in over 4 years? | 23:57 |
stlsaint | philipballew: carnival | 23:58 |
philipballew | i am, its the newest one, i might just write my own gui | 23:58 |
stlsaint | philipballew: that would be better, if you have any packaging questions i might be able to assist as i am packaging a few apps now | 23:59 |
