[03:16] So what are the Ubuntu hours near San jose? [03:16] The repair guy seemed interested in going [04:15] Dennis Ritchie died this past weekend. Damn. [04:43] D: [05:09] I'm proud to say that 45.93% of my blog traffic (1,924 Linux Users) over the last two weeks is Linux Users [05:09] :D [05:09] Wonder how many use Ubuntu :P [05:13] Does ubuntu set the user agent in the built-in firefox? [05:31] jbermudes: Nope [05:32] jbermudes: I wish all distros did though [05:32] then there would be a better picture of how popular distros are [06:56] All right Nixie Pixel just got a show on Revision 3 [06:56] We need more folks that use word Linux in public [14:21] bkerensa: Ubuntu used to, but now Mozilla doesn't allow it. [14:22] happy release everyone :) [14:33] huh? [14:35] http://www.ubuntu.com aha! [14:48] time to update https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/OneiricRelease [14:48] isn't the next name usually announced by now? [14:49] oops, I missed it. .. Precise Pangolin [16:30] Good morning all. Do we have a public calendar that is editable? It would be nice if team members can come in and add events and make changes. i thought there was something out there, but maybe it was static and was not editable. [16:30] Ive made one here to help myself keep track of events. [16:30] https://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=gngt2gjg8mi044h02b2j3iqpu0%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/Los_Angeles [16:30] if you would like to be an admin and add events, please let me know [16:32] I'll send admin links out to the leaders here at the minimum if we all like this idea. [16:32] ive been sorta scraping by and catching events when I can to post to to facebook, twitter, etc... but i know ive missed a few [16:36] hello iheartubuntu [16:36] hi markdude [16:36] There has to be a script-fu way to do that task [16:37] where is akk when she is needed [16:37] ? :) [16:37] * MarkDude found 2 more usb ethernet devices [16:38] Still no lpt [16:38] If you want to build a machine for the person- I have some pieces to donate [16:38] im good thx [16:38] Might be a good thing to plan before Xmas [16:38] i got that guy up and running again [16:38] Is it working for them? [16:38] Oh, cool. [16:38] yah his modem was fried [16:39] he seems happy just using a dial up modem :) [16:39] Cool. Let folks be happy- i SAY [16:39] he is mostly just doing email and some light web browsing [16:39] I have all sorts of tomatoes growing now [16:39] wow really [16:40] * MarkDude is hoping for late season with no frost [16:40] my tomatoes bombed out this year [16:40] i have not tended to them at all though [16:40] Yep, I have not really done much- some plant food [16:40] and automatic watering [16:40] * MarkDude forgot about shutting off auot water [16:40] auto [16:40] i have about 2.5 cubic yards of primo soil if u know anyone in LA that might be interested [16:41] so my cherry tomatoes split [16:41] Hmmmm maybe my cousin [16:41] I will be down your way in Jan for Scale [16:41] my strawberries did great finally... and its becuase i moved them to barrels where opposums didnt bother them [16:42] i have to make some scale designs... in case i win the grand prize and get a free flight to scale! [16:42] * MarkDude just reserved ticket for convention in VA [16:42] 4 days later I wil be in SoCal [16:42] nice [16:42] Possums are hella funnt animals [16:42] are we doing an Ubucon again? [16:43] i like the possum 'freeze' when they spot you [16:43] they dont move at all :) [16:46] I remeber Nathan saying some stuff about Ubuncon [16:47] * MarkDude will be helping the Dark Side of the Force for the convention [16:47] ;) [16:47] Somehow I became a primary spokesman for the whole Beefy Miracle phenomenon [16:48] * MarkDude had a friend question his sanity for that. (Plenty of reasons to do so- just not that.) [16:51] whats going on in VA? [17:09] Hmm, having a lot of trouble booting Ubuntu 4.10. Failsafe mode seems to be getting farther. [17:14] Now I remember that Ubuntu CDs used to ship with cool stuff for Windows like OpenOffice.org, Firefox and Thunderbird, GIMP, Audacity, Abiword, and so on. [17:22] ah, taking out the SATA controller fixed the problem. How strange. [19:35] bkerensa, ping [19:39] MarkDude: pong pong [19:41] Link for your Ubuntu page? [19:41] * MarkDude will do that today [19:41] * MarkDude is really, really impressed with ALL you have done [19:41] I mean it [19:42] * MarkDude was hoping for a person that would do a decent job in taking over Oregon Team [19:42] You have far exceeded expectations [20:08] MarkDude: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/bkerensa [20:09] MarkDude: If you remember I didnt even want the gig ;) I still turn down jobs offers almost every month [20:09] :P [20:10] MarkDude: What is the temp like in CA today? Its freezing here [20:10] Still- you are doing a hell of a llot with it [20:10] its 80 in SF :) [20:10] shorts weather [20:10] :( [20:10] * bkerensa cries [20:10] Its like 50's here [20:10] Oregon is already more active than many teams [20:11] * MarkDude is assuming he should write 2 paragraphs [20:12] one about me looking for a replacement lead [20:12] the next about how well you have done>? [20:12] Embodying the humanity towards others thing [20:13] And how you know stuff- like networking- and tech stuff to [20:13] too [20:23] idk its up to you [20:23] :D [20:23] * bkerensa thinks its better for you to shape it how you want [20:23] I shouldnt influence your testimonial [20:24] Fair enough [20:24] So I can do- bow before the new FOSS God.... [20:25] His name is Ben, learn as you watch [20:25] ;) [20:25] Even Jono calls him Sir [20:37] bkerensa: it's 91 down here in Irvine! [20:46] =/ [20:48] Now to get the Ubuntu 10.10 default background and I'm done! [20:49] While I like the current series of wallpapers fine, I have to say we've had some really nice backgrounds and themes. [20:49] jaunty's tan oranges and chocolate browns were striking. [20:49] I wanna figure out how to make the unity bar smaller [20:49] it takes up too much of my desktop compared to Natty Classic [20:49] :D [20:50] bkerensa: there's no element called the "unity bar". :) The top panel is the Unity Panel and the left launcher is called the Unity Launcher. [20:51] You can install ccsm and that lets you adjust the launcher. The panel is always 24px except for accessible themes, I think. [20:51] nhaines: I have another name for the Unity Launcher... Same name they called the Twitter Bar that they got rid of [20:51] :P [20:52] bkerensa: there's always GNOME Shell if you hate productivity. :P [20:53] You can install gnome-panel to get the GNOME3 fallback interface, too. I can't stand using it because of the wasted space used by the panel though! [20:56] nhaines: Yeah I know gnome-fallback [20:56] I alpha tested Oneiric for months [20:56] :P [20:57] bkerensa: it's out now. :P [20:57] yeah I'm going to wait three days to do a clean migration [20:57] wait for final bugs to be found ;) [20:57] bkerensa: I'm going to do one as soon as I can back up my laptop. :) [20:57] hey, Darkwing, i'm applying for membership in a week, would you fill out a testimonial for me? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KevinDuBois [20:57] So far it's been so good. [21:01] kdub: Aye [21:01] thanks so much [21:03] bkerensa, apt-get install kde desktop I think would help with the Unity bar [21:03] :D [21:03] ask Darkwing - he knows [21:03] Then you have two problems! [21:03] apt get KILL Unity I think comes next [21:03] not sure [21:03] What? [21:46] gah. Who's in charge of the Ubuntu website? [21:46] http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/upgrade still refers to maverick. [21:47] pop in to ubuntu-website [21:47] akgraner: perfect! Thanks! :D [21:47] I think that is the name of the irc group - if not ask mhall119 or nigelb what it is [21:47] group=channel [21:49] akgraner: we'll see. :) [21:49] k [21:49] I just asked mhall119 to make sure - he's in the fl loco team or in -locoteams [21:49] but haven't heard back from him yet [21:50] Ooh! The Ubuntu 11.10 installer has a very nice aubergine backdrop with a dark rust-colored paw print. [21:58] The Halls can be busy. Family as well as other stuff [21:58] Like Qimo4kids ;) [22:36] Hmm, backed up all my stuff on my desktop computer, then promptly forgot to move the backup folder to an external storage drive. So much for backups! [22:37] That's okay, I didn't have anything important on there anyway. \o/ for testing! === jamalta_ is now known as jamalta
