| blahdeblah | head_victim: Hey man, sorry to be a piker, but i'm gonna have to pull out of the party today. I promised a client i would get some work finished this weekend, and i'm going to need to work on it this arvo. :-( | 02:04 |
|---|---|---|
| head_victim | No worries mate, if you feel like a break head over for half an hour or so otherwise there's always the next one | 02:04 |
| sagaci | when's the bris party starting | 02:06 |
| head_victim | I a couple of hours | 02:06 |
| head_victim | 2pm UTC + 10 | 02:07 |
| sagaci | ah yep | 02:07 |
| MoLE_ | have fun you guys, wish I was there... | 02:09 |
| xannen | hi guys | 04:36 |
| xannen | unity is giving the shit, so far gnome classic no effect seems to be most stable for me. | 04:36 |
| ikt | head_victim: :D | 06:26 |
| ikt | xannen: gnome classic? | 06:29 |
| ikt | are you still running 11.04? | 06:29 |
| blahdeblah | head_victim: Hope you folks went OK in the hail storm! | 07:15 |
| gorilla | hail in Brisbane? Wow. | 07:31 |
| ikt | is that not normal? | 08:06 |
| sagaci | head_victim: how'd it go | 08:15 |
| blahdeblah | gorilla: Sarcasm, i trust? | 08:15 |
| gorilla | blahdeblah: not really.. we have had a warmish day down here in Melbourne. | 08:15 |
| gorilla | then again Brisbane isn't tropical climate, rather it's sub-tropical (I think) | 08:17 |
| ikt | ls | 08:24 |
| ikt | wb :) | 08:25 |
| ikt | head_victim: still not back yet? | 08:36 |
| gorilla | is he working tonight? | 08:40 |
| head_victim | Went well | 08:43 |
| head_victim | I got hailed on coming home (been running around with the wife since) | 08:43 |
| head_victim | We had 7 or 8 turn up. I think the weather prevented a few. | 08:46 |
| ikt | lol | 08:46 |
| ikt | 7-8 is great :D | 08:46 |
| ikt | did you see my doodle? | 08:47 |
| head_victim | Yeah, I'd specify a time zone, UTC+10 or +11 just to be sure | 08:47 |
| head_victim | Because those silly southerners have a habit of adjusting their time zone regularly each year | 08:48 |
| ikt | yeah updated it right after sagaci mentioned it | 08:48 |
| ikt | http://doodle.com/bpz47isrg9q7xz23 | 08:48 |
| ikt | assuming edt is the current time in sydney.. | 08:51 |
| head_victim | I'd say "now that daylight savings has kicked in" so that those who aren't aware of it can be sure but then again that link should be ok as well | 08:55 |
| head_victim | blahdeblah: I drove through that hail on the way home (just read scrollback) | 08:55 |
| head_victim | gorilla & ikt we've had 3 lots of hail in the last week (some of it was so deep it looked like snow) | 08:56 |
| elky | there's little "normal" about weather this winter. | 08:58 |
| elky | Wellington had snow for the first time in 30 years a few weeks back | 08:58 |
| ikt | kk | 09:02 |
| ikt | head_victim: ok it's updated | 09:10 |
| gorilla | ikt: I've voted! | 09:10 |
| ikt | I saw :D | 09:10 |
| head_victim | ikt: send it to the list :) Just include a note as to why we're thinking of changed (to make it easier for more people to attend) :) | 09:10 |
| ikt | kk! | 09:11 |
| gorilla | elky: this winter is more like what I remember from my childhood. :-) | 09:11 |
| head_victim | BBL | 09:12 |
| ikt | head_victim: also checkout the emirates loco page | 09:12 |
| ikt | they've got this like news feed | 09:12 |
| ikt | that makes them look very active | 09:12 |
| head_victim | Link? | 09:12 |
| ikt | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EmiratesTeam | 09:12 |
| head_victim | That's actually what should go in team reports | 09:13 |
| head_victim | If you look at it you'll see there's mostly only one thing a month | 09:13 |
| head_victim | Maybe we need to make the team reports more prominent on the front page? | 09:13 |
| ikt | yeah definitely | 09:13 |
| head_victim | I'd be more comfortable with that as opposed to having something else to update | 09:14 |
| head_victim | That and a link to the loco.u.c events page perhaps | 09:14 |
| head_victim | Anyway, bbl I gott arun for a bit | 09:14 |
| ikt | kk | 09:14 |
| ikt | have fun :D | 09:14 |
| gorilla | take care :-) | 09:14 |
| blahdeblah | gorilla: Warmish days are when we have hail the most up here... ;-) | 09:35 |
| gorilla | It's a strange part of the world! :-P | 09:37 |
| ikt | bbs | 09:40 |
| sagaci | head_victim, ping | 10:31 |
| xannen | hey all! | 10:32 |
| xannen | Unity: Dual Monitor - How to put dash on primary monitor? Yes I have googled. | 10:33 |
| sagaci | nothing in ccsm? | 10:46 |
| xannen | hi sagaci <3 i'll check ccsm. i don't know how to tweak in ccsm anyway. :( | 11:08 |
| elky | by clicking boxes and choosing from dropdowns, typically | 11:11 |
| xannen | lol elky i know that. but I mean, when I change a setting, I do not know its exact effect. | 11:11 |
| elky | they're fairly instant. if it doesn't do anything that you notice you just undo it ;) | 11:12 |
| ikt | fairly quiet :S | 12:28 |
| ikt | anyone installed a jabber server before? | 12:28 |
| sagaci | nope | 12:31 |
| * sagaci just breathing some irc air | 12:31 | |
| ikt | was expecting it to be fairly easy but it's not working | 12:32 |
| ikt | and I can't figure out why :( | 12:32 |
| sagaci | well what kind of errors are you getting | 12:33 |
| ikt | atm not connecting at all | 12:33 |
| sagaci | translations batch now start at 975 | 13:00 |
| head_victim | sagaci: pong | 13:52 |
| head_victim | xannen: I found that if I went through the settings to displays and I moved the order of the screens about it changed which was primary (If you're still having problems) | 13:53 |
| xannen | hi head_victim <3. yeah i'm still playing around with it. | 13:54 |
| xannen | head_victim, i went to display, and it says "unknown" for the displays (2 monitors), even after clicking "Detect" | 13:56 |
| head_victim | That's fine, if you click and drag them around in the little window and put one in front of the other it will still change them | 13:57 |
| xannen | When I go to Display: it has this one big screen, no separate screen. And that one big screen says: unknown. And yes I have the "recommended" gpu driver installed. | 13:58 |
| head_victim | Hmm mine always has two screens side by side. | 13:58 |
| head_victim | And I can move them about relative to each other | 13:58 |
| xannen | Sorry for crude bluntness, I feel 11.10 is retarded, 'cause 11.04 worked better out of the box for me. :S | 13:59 |
| head_victim | I've found it difficult to navigate the Unity settings interface at times but I've generally always found what I've needed. | 14:01 |
| sagaci | stats aren't showing it but we're at 80% done now | 14:01 |
| head_victim | sagaci: niiice | 14:02 |
| xannen | Another thing I found odd is after a while, i get graphics lags. :S And I was not even playing games. :S | 14:02 |
| sagaci | got the mail form fabri on the mailing list... so do you think you'll get an installfest happening? | 14:02 |
| head_victim | sagaci: there was definite support for it | 14:03 |
| sagaci | head_victim, so have you got a few more moments? | 14:10 |
| ikt | xannen: what's happening with 11.10 for you? | 14:25 |
| head_victim | sagaci: yeah just had dinner | 14:30 |
| xannen | hi ikt. i am taking a break from tweaking it. spend over 2 days now trying to get it just how it should be like on 11.04, but just updated. | 14:33 |
| head_victim | I'm trying to upload a picture to flickr to show what I'm talking about for the display settings. | 14:35 |
| head_victim | Do you have ATI, nvidia or intel graphics? Soemtimes a setting int he proprietry to make it just one big screen or split into 2 | 14:35 |
| xannen | head_victim, i know what you mean. Previously, when I went to Display, it shows the 2 monitors. Now, it seems like the 2 monitors are combined, and just labelled as "unknown". | 14:36 |
| xannen | Nvidia. | 14:36 |
| head_victim | Ah I'd say you have the wrong setting in the nvidia-settings program | 14:36 |
| head_victim | If you run gksudo nvidia-settings you will geta popup window | 14:36 |
| xannen | I went to the nvidia settings, and adjust it there in the first place. In that settings, it shows the appropriate 2 monitors. | 14:37 |
| head_victim | In the list there should be a menu item for "X Server Display COnfiguration" | 14:37 |
| xannen | Yep that's where I made the adjustment. | 14:37 |
| head_victim | If you look for the "Configuration" what are you using? Twinview? | 14:37 |
| xannen | Yes. | 14:38 |
| xannen | But oddly, even though selected, it appeared to be greyed out. | 14:38 |
| head_victim | Ah ok I had the exact problem you were describing when I tried xinerama mode | 14:38 |
| ikt | hi homebound :) | 14:55 |
| sagaci | head_victim, so what's the go with planet.u.o.au is it just down or are they upgrading it | 14:55 |
| homebound | hi ikt : ) | 14:56 |
| head_victim | Down I think, I was waiting a day or two after release to let them settle a little | 14:56 |
| sagaci | so is it still beneficial to have an ubuntu.org.au vs. a loco site/wiki pages? | 14:57 |
| head_victim | The main thing I think the ubuntu.org.au should be for is for a news feed, blog like and the planet | 14:58 |
| head_victim | I've been speaking to the loco.u.c devs to give them that feedback | 14:58 |
| sagaci | yeah, so long as the news feed and planet are active i guess | 14:58 |
| sagaci | what about an upgrade to the new ubuntu branding, ala. the ubuntu-uk site | 14:59 |
| sagaci | http://ubuntu-uk.org/ | 14:59 |
| head_victim | That, I'm told, is ont he list of high priorities after the release | 14:59 |
| sagaci | ah ok | 14:59 |
| sagaci | also, is there a wiki function to allow you to see what wiki pages you've edited -- wiki editing history for myself? | 15:01 |
| sagaci | doesn't look like it | 15:05 |
| head_victim | Not that I'm aware of | 15:17 |
| ikt | xannen: did u get my msg? | 15:26 |
| xannen | ikt, can you repeat it? just to be clear. | 15:26 |
| xannen | i just installed nvidia from x-swat ppa. and still "unknown" display. :S | 15:27 |
| head_victim | sagaci: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecentChanges?max_days=14 is the closest I know | 15:29 |
| head_victim | "unknown" isn't the issue in the display setup, it will always show unknown when you're using proprietary drivers from my experience. The problem is that it's only showing one big display | 15:29 |
| xannen | yeah | 15:34 |
| xannen | is nouvea the open source version of nvidia? | 15:34 |
| head_victim | Yep | 15:35 |
| head_victim | But nvidia should be able to do it, it will just be a setting somewhere wrong | 15:35 |
| head_victim | BBL again | 15:35 |
| xannen | yep, for me as noobuntu, i have no idea what or where to diagnose. | 15:35 |
| head_victim | Looks like others on your forum thread have had success just using the open source drivers, maybe give that a shot. If you have an nvidia 7500 it's quite an old card and may not be well supported anymore | 15:39 |
| xannen | i have gtx580, quite new. | 15:39 |
| ikt | HAHA | 15:52 |
| ikt | it was just needing a FQDN | 15:52 |
| ikt | damn you jabber | 15:52 |
| xannen | lol fully qual domain name -- so long >.< | 15:55 |
| * joey168 is away: going out to catch some fresh air, be back soon | 23:22 | |
