| daubers | Morning | 09:10 |
| * daubers upgrade to 11.10 for funsies | 09:12 | |
| * MartijnVdS is going to try to replace the radio in his car today | 09:12 | |
| MartijnVdS | never done that before... :) | 09:12 |
| daubers | MartijnVdS: Easy peasy | 09:14 |
| MartijnVdS | daubers: I can't see any way to get the radio out though | 09:15 |
| daubers | MartijnVdS: The radio should have 2 pieces of metal which are tools to insert/remove the radio | 09:18 |
| MartijnVdS | yes | 09:18 |
| MartijnVdS | I have those | 09:18 |
| daubers | they slide in the side of the radio to remove it, one either side. You might have a fascia you need to remove | 09:19 |
| MartijnVdS | Yeah I don't expect too much trouble | 09:21 |
| MartijnVdS | I even have a special cable that can switch power leads (in case they're the wrong way around and the radio forgets its settings every time it's turned on) | 09:22 |
| diplo | morning all | 09:30 |

| MartijnVdS | daubers: use ddrescue | 09:48 |
| MartijnVdS | it'll make a 1:1 image, retrying sectors if they fail | 09:49 |
| MartijnVdS | diplo:, sorry | 09:49 |
| diplo | thoughts if i resize the ntfs partition on this drive | 09:49 |
| * diplo looks into now | 09:49 | |
| diplo | cheers | 09:49 |
| MartijnVdS | it might not rescue everything, but it'll rescue as much as it can | 09:50 |

| diplo | heh I know you like webos :) | 11:26 |
| directhex | diplo: the touchdroid project is a crap premise masterminded by teenagers who struggle with basic concepts | 11:26 |
| directhex | e.g. i wonder if any of them noticed that the touchpad's kernel source is an android tree - i.e. a touchpad android kernel is a recompile away | 11:27 |
| diplo | I'd like to have a play with a touch pad | 11:27 |
| diplo | oh, I hadn't read that much yet | 11:27 |
| diplo | Lost interest i guess after i couldn't get one | 11:27 |

| MartijnVdS | \o | 14:29 |
| Pendulum | hiya bigcalm | 14:34 |
| bigcalm | Hey hey :) | 14:37 |
| daubers | maplins is still full of fail :( | 14:42 |
| bigcalm | Web browsers and eclipse (and others possibly) are very laggy to scroll. How might I improve this? Already have the nvidia driver installed, though the system says that it isn't in use... | 14:50 |
| bigcalm | Using xinerama over 3 monitors as twinview doesn't do what I need | 14:54 |
| Azelphur | haha, so your a xinerama kill performance no compiz person then :P | 14:55 |
| bigcalm | Unless somebody here is good with setting up xorg for 3 monitors over 2 graphics cards | 14:55 |
| Azelphur | *wave* | 14:55 |
| Azelphur | TwinView doesn't scale over graphics cards | 14:56 |
| Azelphur | it's in the name, twin, ie only 2 :( | 14:56 |
| bigcalm | Aha, let me pastebin my xorg | 14:56 |
| Azelphur | bigcalm: you've got 2 choices really, A) you stick with xinerama with bad performance / no compiz | 14:56 |
| bigcalm | http://paste.ubuntu.com/675980/ | 14:57 |
| Azelphur | B) You use separate X screens, you get performance, but you get loads of bugs and you can't drag windows between your first 2 monitors, and your third | 14:57 |
| bigcalm | Lets see if we can get option B working | 14:57 |
| Azelphur | I use 2x twinview split down the middle :) | 14:58 |
| Azelphur | ok, pretty simple then | 14:58 |
| bigcalm | Note that I have my 2nd screen rotated 90 deg | 14:58 |
| Azelphur | just go into nvidia-settings and set it up in there is the easiest | 14:58 |
| Azelphur | put your first cards monitors on twinview | 14:58 |
| Azelphur | and make your second cards monitor a Separate X Screen | 14:58 |
| bigcalm | Can you rotate the 2nd screen in twinview? | 14:59 |
| Azelphur | not sure | 14:59 |
| bigcalm | Here goes :) | 15:02 |
| bigcalm | This is messed up :/ | 15:03 |
| bigcalm | Also: | 15:04 |
| bigcalm | Could not get screen information | 15:04 |
| bigcalm | RandR extension is not present | 15:04 |
| MartijnVdS | RandR not present? nvidia? | 15:04 |
| bigcalm | Yes | 15:05 |
| bigcalm[revo] | Azelphur: now running 3 seperate X screens | 15:22 |
| bigcalm[revo] | Just to have things run quickly _and_ have my centra monitor rotated to the left | 15:23 |
| Azelphur | :) | 15:23 |
| bigcalm[revo] | Does mean that I can't move windows between screens at all | 15:23 |
| bigcalm[revo] | Never mind :) | 15:23 |
| bigcalm[revo] | I have to be careful where I load a program now | 15:24 |
| bigcalm[revo] | Not very ideal this sadly | 15:26 |
| bigcalm[revo] | Would be good to be able to copy all of my panel shortcuts from screen 1 to 2 and 3 | 15:31 |
| bigcalm[revo] | Oh bugger | 15:36 |
| bigcalm[revo] | Now I have 6 virtual desktops for each screen | 15:36 |

| HazRPG | ali1234: wow, they actually closed the bug just because it "no longer does it in oneiric" when the bug was originally for natty... | 16:38 |
| ali1234 | that's right | 16:39 |
| ali1234 | a bug has to be fix released before it can be sru's | 16:39 |

| brobostigon | :) | 16:51 |
| HazRPG | ah, SRU stands for Stable Release Updates | 16:59 |
| HazRPG | hmm, I think others should confirm this bug cos at the moment I'm sure the dev's think that only 2 people are having issues with this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/826059 | 17:01 |

| MartijnVdS | kvarley: It only works if you plug in a cable | 17:10 |
| MartijnVdS | and it detects link | 17:10 |
| kvarley | MartijnVdS: It's a software issue. Not hardware. | 17:11 |
| MartijnVdS | kvarley: is the cable connected? | 17:11 |
| kvarley | MartijnVdS: I have a cable plugged in, that's how I'm talking to you right now. | 17:11 |
| kvarley | MartijnVdS: It's something I've had happen with Ubuntu before too but can't remember how I fixed it | 17:11 |
| MartijnVdS | kvarley: is the interface in /etc/network/interfaces? IF it is, network-manager will ignore it | 17:12 |

| shauno | fantastic taste in cars tho :) | 19:09 |
| ali1234 | HazRPG: you'd think your sister would have learned not to do that the second or third time | 19:12 |
| ali1234 | anyway bug is now nominated. i'm looking for the exact patch that fixed it | 19:13 |
| HazRPG | ali1234: That's just it though, users don't realise that bugs can exist in software... they just think it "randomly crashed". | 19:14 |
| ali1234 | hence "second or third time" | 19:14 |
| ali1234 | "Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." | 19:15 |
| HazRPG | she probably would have done it more times until I said to her "stop doing it... clearly its broken and needs fixed by the people who made it" | 19:15 |
| ali1234 | gord: when i see "dnd" in unity changelog, that refers to drag and drop? | 19:16 |

| gord | not dungeons and dragons | 19:17 |
| HazRPG | gord: could mean "Do Not Disturb" :P | 19:18 |
| ali1234 | could mean just about anything given you also have "bfb" and "bamf" as acronyms? | 19:18 |
| ali1234 | what do they stand for btw? | 19:18 |
| ali1234 | i know bamf has something to do with focussing? | 19:19 |
| ali1234 | bfb = best friends button? | 19:19 |
| gord | big friendly button | 19:19 |
| gord | not sure what patch would of fixed that, i don't really work with the launcher much | 19:19 |
| gord | bamf is the bamf application matching framework | 19:20 |
| ali1234 | ok, thanks | 19:21 |
| ali1234 | how do i do a bisect with bzr? | 19:22 |
| gord | i think there might be a plugin in the repos to do that | 19:22 |
| gord | there are a whole lot of them under the namespace bzr-<thing> | 19:22 |
| ali1234 | http://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/plugins/en/bisect-plugin.html | 19:22 |
| ali1234 | why isn't that built in? it is a pretty important feature | 19:23 |
| ali1234 | oh well | 19:23 |
| gord | good question :) | 19:23 |
| Azelphur | I just started using github for my project, \o/ https://github.com/Azelphur/SourceIRC | 19:28 |
| ali1234 | gord: how do i test a unity build from bzr checkout? can i just unity --replace from the build tree without installing it? | 19:30 |
| gord | ali1234, nope, its a compiz plugin so you have to install it then compiz --replace ; you can do cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/somewhere/ to define a local install prefix. once you are done testing you can rm ~/.compiz-1/plugins to use system installed unity again | 19:32 |
| gord | unless you are testing the dash, i built a standalone version of the dash a long time ago so i don't have to do that :) | 19:32 |
| ali1234 | no, i;m testing the launcher dnd :) | 19:32 |
| ali1234 | so DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.compiz-1/plugins? | 19:34 |
| ali1234 | i am confused | 19:34 |
| ali1234 | can i just build a deb from bzr? | 19:36 |
| penguin42 | ali1234: If it's got a debian subdir then try dpkg-buildpackage in there | 19:38 |
| ali1234 | http://askubuntu.com/questions/28470/how-do-i-build-unity-from-source/28472#28472 | 19:38 |
| penguin42 | (Generic deb answer rather than unity) | 19:39 |
| ali1234 | yeah it doesn't have one | 19:39 |

| MartijnVdS | wooo | 19:50 |
| MartijnVdS | :-) | 19:50 |
| HazRPG | I needed to wait for a time I could get on the actual machine to be able to do "ubuntu-bug media-player-info" :) | 19:51 |
| MartijnVdS | "Hey $sister_name, do you want that bug fixed or not?" ;-) | 19:52 |
| MartijnVdS | so you got it to work? | 19:53 |
| ali1234 | why you can't ssh in and submit bug? | 19:53 |
| zleap | i tried to boot ubuntu on an e-machines dual athon system with nvidia 9x00 graphics should i get unity by default as i don't i just get gnome or do I need to choose unity somewhere | 19:57 |
| ali1234 | you need to install the nvidia driver | 19:58 |
| zleap | ok | 19:58 |
| ali1234 | then reboot | 19:58 |
| zleap | so i will get that when i install it | 19:58 |
| ali1234 | unity is already installed | 19:58 |
| ali1234 | it just doesn't work on nouveau | 19:58 |
| zleap | ok | 19:58 |
| zleap | i am installing from 2gb usb stick and it ran out of space when trying to downloading the extra repository data to it, so it could find the nvidia drivers | 19:59 |
| zleap | I am probably doing something wrong, i should be able to test all this from a live session right | 19:59 |
| gord | i hear that unity does work on nouveau actually | 20:00 |
| gord | haven't tried myself, and i would depend on how well nouveau supports your particular gpu | 20:00 |
| jacobw | depends if you've run out of space, which i doubt on a 2GB drive | 20:01 |
| zleap | ok | 20:01 |
| zleap | i have also tried to install from the live cd and it crashed during install (creating ext4 file system) so I am trying a newer iso image to copy to the disk | 20:02 |
| ali1234 | ok, the version of unity in natty won't work on nouveau, because it is blacklisted | 20:02 |
| ali1234 | at least the version in the installation CD | 20:02 |
| zleap | ok | 20:02 |
| ali1234 | all you have to do is do a normal install | 20:03 |
| ali1234 | then reboot | 20:03 |
| ali1234 | then jockey will install nvidia driver for you | 20:03 |
| ali1234 | then reboot again | 20:03 |
| ali1234 | then you will have unity | 20:03 |
| zleap | ok i will try and do the install without it crashing | 20:03 |
| zleap | as the system came with linpus I can't even figure out how to install new software on it | 20:03 |
| jacobw | i've had the natty installer hang on partitioning | 20:03 |
| jacobw | i don't know why it happens | 20:03 |
| zleap | ok | 20:04 |
| AlanBell | evening all | 20:05 |
| zleap | hi | 20:05 |
| zleap | as i said going to try a different newly downloaded iso image the orignal one i had was just after 11.04 came out so i am guessing it gets updated or fixed if there are issues | 20:06 |
| jacobw | aa1? | 20:06 |
| zleap | jacobw, ? | 20:06 |
| jacobw | acer aspire one | 20:06 |
| zleap | oh | 20:06 |
| jacobw | linpus sucks | 20:07 |
| zleap | jacobw, yeah i know but I don't want to wipe it, until i have a working alternative | 20:07 |
| zleap | jacobw, http://www.ebuyer.com/267867-emachine-er1401-desktop-pt-nbzec-004 | 20:07 |
| ball | Linpus == Linux for Bagpus? | 20:07 |
| zleap | according to ubuntu this is certified to work | 20:08 |
| jacobw | well, if you install natty then you can always run 'ubuntu classic' i.e. gnome2 without 3d acceleration | 20:08 |
| HazRPG | MartijnVdS: nope I didn't... not a clue how to, looked into the repo and seems that all they do is add the mpi into a folder... I'm guessing media-player-info needs to be recompiled with the mpi file in the directory | 20:08 |
| jacobw | ball: could well be :P no upgrade path from whichever fedora release merged -core and -extras | 20:08 |
| zleap | ball, more like Linux distro to put people off and install any available version of windows | 20:08 |
| HazRPG | ali1234: I can ssh in, didn't think it would work that way since a browser is normally opened up... | 20:09 |
| ali1234 | if display is unset it just prints the url for you to copy/paste | 20:09 |
| ali1234 | which is also handy when you report bugs on a netbook and dont want to fill out the form on a tiny screen and keyboard | 20:10 |
| ali1234 | which is something i do often since i test +1 on my netbooks | 20:10 |
| ball | What is a +1? | 20:10 |
| zleap | back later | 20:11 |
| ali1234 | ball: ubuntu+1 | 20:11 |
| * ball will have to look that up. | 20:11 | |
| ali1234 | ball: it just means the next version of ubuntu... | 20:11 |
| ball | Oh. | 20:11 |
| HazRPG | ali1234: sweet, didn't realise it could do that | 20:12 |
| HazRPG | make life easier in future | 20:12 |
| ali1234 | yeah, ubuntu+1 usually has a lot of bugs until near release, and filling bug forms on a netbook is not nice | 20:13 |
| ali1234 | launchpad and apport are really good | 20:14 |
| ali1234 | best bug reporting system i have ever used | 20:14 |
| ali1234 | and i have used quite a few | 20:14 |
| ali1234 | specifically why i like it is because apport makes it easier to submit good reports | 20:15 |
| ali1234 | where as the approach the others take is to make it harder to submit bad reports | 20:15 |

| diplo | Local atm | 20:19 |
| mfraz74 | have you logged out before trying again? | 20:20 |
| diplo | yep | 20:22 |
| jacobw | wouldn't make difference on local, would have to have logged out of ssh on remote before restarting server | 20:22 |
| diplo | Sorry meant local to machine not on the local machine, should have made myself clearer | 20:22 |
| diplo | who displays just my one session on | 20:23 |

| jacobw | yeah, sshD.. | 20:43 |
| diplo | lol, I know i shouldn't do stuff when im so tired | 20:43 |
| diplo | I'm glad i rechecked AlanBell | 20:44 |

| * diplo wont change anything else till tomorrow | 20:44 | |
| * AlanBell has had several glasses of wine and a beer | 20:44 | |
| AlanBell | just about ready to do some unity hacking | 20:45 |
| jacobw | ffs, noscript on youtube means an advert prefaces every video | 20:45 |
| jacobw | sounds about right for poking unity :P | 20:45 |
| AlanBell | judging by the rest of the code and design decisions I might need a refil | 20:45 |
| * hamitron makes note Unity is coded by drunks | 20:45 | |
| hamitron | ;) | 20:46 |
| AlanBell | well we know from bug 764905 that it has been tested by drunks | 20:47 |
| lubotu3 | Launchpad bug 764905 in unity "Drag and drop a USB key into the trash should eject the USB key" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/764905 | 20:47 |
| jacobw | LOL | 20:47 |
| Seeker` | Did you guys hear about the £1million bounty on col. gadaffi's head? | 20:51 |
| Seeker` | most expensive chocolate bar since 2008, when the economy was given a £750 million boost. | 20:51 |
| AlanBell | that must be one hell of a chocolate bar | 20:51 |
| penguin42 | how much just for the hair? | 20:51 |
| AlanBell | beaten to the punchline | 20:52 |
| jacobw | ha | 20:52 |
| AlanBell | Dr Who was rather good this evening I thought | 20:54 |
| * daubers hasn't seen it yet | 20:55 | |

| andres-kain | Hello all. A usual question, how do I change the login screen? no the splash: the image in background when selecting user login. | 20:56 |
| AlanBell | well seeing as spoilers could collapse the space time continum and end the universe as we know it I will refrane | 20:57 |
| AlanBell | andres-kain: http://maketecheasier.com/change-login-and-boot-screen-in-ubuntu-lucid/2010/05/13 | 20:59 |
| jacobw | has it changed with gdm3? | 20:59 |
| AlanBell | we are using lightdm in oneiric | 21:00 |
| AlanBell | and yeah, it would change | 21:00 |
| AlanBell | however the login window is looking pretty cool right now | 21:00 |
| jacobw | http://ubuntucorner.blogspot.com/2011/02/changing-gdm3-theme-wallpaper.html | 21:00 |
| jacobw | yeah, it looks good. | 21:01 |
| andres-kain | Thank you! will have a look. Should be the same for xubuntu right? | 21:01 |
| jacobw | yes | 21:01 |
| andres-kain | Thank you! | 21:02 |

| Earthling | I want to build a craft | 22:41 |
| hamitron | what kind? | 22:43 |
| Earthling | To get off this planet | 22:44 |
| hamitron | bit boring, wanna try something new | 22:46 |
| Earthling | Currently, looking up flashing my sony elm instead | 22:48 |
| hamitron | didn't realise sony had a tree named after them :/ | 22:49 |
| Earthling | You know the japs | 22:50 |
| Earthling | Put a cpu in anything | 22:50 |
| hamitron | aye :D | 22:51 |
| Earthling | I managed to flash another sony phone, hope I can do this one. But its got this irc client on it. So spend too much time here instead. | 22:52 |
| Earthling | Thumb ache client lol | 22:52 |
| hamitron | I gave up phones | 22:52 |
| hamitron | just lost interest | 22:52 |
| hamitron | :/ | 22:52 |
| Earthling | Not take many calls hee hee. But very useful for sofa irc | 22:53 |
| Earthling | With free data im set free | 22:54 |
| hamitron | guess so | 22:54 |
| Earthling | Still wish to unlock my android. Linux plus phone is perfect | 22:54 |
| Earthling | Thats sony too. They make it very difficult | 22:55 |
| hamitron | if I actually get around to it, I'll probably look closely at the selection of wp7 | 22:55 |
| Earthling | Then it midnight discovery channel distracts me til dawn with myth busters. Im doomed lol | 22:56 |
| hamitron | haha | 22:56 |
| hamitron | I got no tv | 22:57 |
| hamitron | turned analogue tv off | 22:57 |
| hamitron | :/ | 22:57 |
| Earthling | Nor do i.. So the licence doll think | 22:57 |
| Earthling | Am starting to get very interested im solar power but they so expensive :-( I can run my whole house on 600 watts since I dont run much | 22:59 |
| Earthling | Fridge is 450 watts alone. Rest is computer which is 140 | 23:00 |
| Earthling | Am babbling too | 23:00 |
| hamitron | 450W? :| | 23:00 |
| hamitron | didn't realise they used that much tbh | 23:00 |
| penguin42 | Earthling: I asusme the fridge doesn't take that all teh time? | 23:01 |
| * hamitron would hope not | 23:01 | |
| Earthling | On. Standby its very low but they need lots to keep temp stable | 23:02 |
| hamitron | is this an old device? | 23:02 |
| Earthling | Prob more like 50 on standby | 23:02 |
| Earthling | About 4 years | 23:03 |
| hamitron | you obviously drink far too much beer that needs chilling ;) | 23:03 |
| Earthling | Would still need grid for hoover and oven though. Unless I can store power at high output | 23:04 |
| Earthling | Lol beer :-) | 23:04 |
| Myrtti | awww this discussion pushes me to browse through tumbleweed house blogs again... | 23:06 |
| Earthling | Saw very cute little box in linux mag today. 5watts for full computer power. Cant remember its name. | 23:06 |
| Earthling | Atleast in chatting old man lol | 23:07 |
| Earthling | I used to have a channel called tumbleweed lol | 23:07 |
| Earthling | Myrrti whats on your mind | 23:08 |
| Earthling | Apart from being a troll lol | 23:09 |
| Myrtti | sewing machines, linux admin jobs, nailpolish, mum and fish, not in that order | 23:11 |
| hamitron | mum and fish? | 23:11 |
| Myrtti | I like fish | 23:12 |
| gord | would kill for some suchi tonight | 23:12 |
| Earthling | A stigma | 23:13 |
| Earthling | Scottish fish is wonderful | 23:13 |
| Earthling | As is the weather lol | 23:14 |
| Earthling | Wait. Mail polish? Lol someone wants a cheap buzz! | 23:15 |
| Earthling | Nail | 23:15 |
| Myrtti | or not | 23:15 |
| * ball is confused. | 23:16 | |
| Earthling | Perhaps some geeks still jack sense of humour. But thats ok, still home people. | 23:17 |
| Earthling | Good people | 23:17 |
| Earthling | Damn t9 | 23:17 |
| Myrtti | anyway, nini lovelies | 23:17 |
| Myrtti | ♥ | 23:17 |
| ball | Yes, quite. | 23:18 |
| Earthling | Dare I chat on irc about rubbish lol | 23:19 |
| ball | Earthling: Depends on the channel, probably. | 23:22 |
| Earthling | No. Depends on user. Most are fine. Some just dont get the concept of idle chat. | 23:23 |
| Earthling | Been using irc before the dot com days, so I have good experience of lots of users that dont appreciate irc to fullest | 23:24 |
| Earthling | Perhaps you know of other random chat channels? | 23:25 |
| * ball wonders when the .com era started. | 23:26 | |
| Earthling | Ball? | 23:26 |
| ball | Earthling: #defocus ? | 23:26 |

| Earthling | Thats the one! | 23:26 |
| Earthling | Have that on auto join on my amiga | 23:27 |
| Earthling | Forgot I have to wait a millenia to be voiced | 23:29 |
| funkyHat | Earthling: only if you've not been there for a while (can't remember how long) | 23:29 |
| ali1234 | ball: 2000 | 23:30 |
| ali1234 | ball: 1995-2000 | 23:30 |
| Earthling | Yeah your right. Via my phone I havent, so ill have to idle a while | 23:30 |
| Earthling | I already said 86 and beyond. :-) | 23:31 |
