| pepito | good morning everyone! | 06:51 |

| AlanBell | morning all | 07:44 |
| danfish | g'day! Loverley weather in the SE today :) | 07:46 |
| * danfish is updating an hp microserver to 11.10 and crossing fingers and toes! | 07:49 | |
| SuprEngr | Google+ suspended Super Engineer's a/c - didn't believe it was a real name - lol | 08:22 |
| * SuprEngr is now now known as Bill Boo on G+ | 08:23 | |
| dwatkins | yeah, they seem to have decreed we're not allowed to use anything but real names, annoyingly | 08:30 |
| SuprEngr | I feel sorry for all those good peeps using the name Ubuntu + firstname on G+ | 08:35 |
| SuprEngr | i did wonder how I got away with mine for so long ;) | 08:35 |
| dwatkins | the thing is, they did a complete about-face on this issue | 08:36 |
| dwatkins | http://googlepublicpolicy.blogspot.com/2011/02/freedom-to-be-who-you-want-to-be.html | 08:36 |
| * SuprEngr looks at ^ | 08:37 | |
| SuprEngr | hmmm... interesting | 08:39 |
| dwatkins | yeah, as many of the comments say it appears to be a complete reversal | 08:39 |
| dwatkins | They could insist you tell them your real name, but it remain secret, for example. | 08:39 |
| SuprEngr | but end result of the policy is that e.g. "Super Engineer" gets suspended with only option given being to change it and "submit for approval" which "normally takes a few days" | 08:41 |
| dwatkins | http://vimeo.com/26180854 | 08:42 |
| dwatkins | interesting interview | 08:42 |
| SuprEngr | love it! - as I haver always maintained.. sarcasm is the *highest* form of wit | 08:46 |
| dwatkins | indeed | 08:53 |
| brobostigon | good morning everyone. | 09:22 |
| czajkowski | aloha | 09:31 |
| SuprEngr | anyone got Tomboy Notes synching setup in 11.10? I get as far "Connected. Pree Save to start synchronising". The Save button stays grayed out ^ can't be pressed. | 09:50 |

| doubi | 'afternoon all. I foolishly started dd'ing a device to an external HD without specifying a reasonable block size. The drive is ~480Gb, it's copied ~340 since Friday night. | 11:11 |
| doubi | Now, I've read that ddpt and dd_rescue both have the ability to resume a copy. What I'd like to know is if they'll be able to do so with an image created by plain ol' dd? Because if so, I should be able to Ctrl-C this process and resume it with a reasonable block size and finish the whole thing quicker, right? | 11:11 |

| SuprEngr | given up on 1104 -> 1110 upgrade in place Oneiric. formatted partion. too many fails | 14:41 |
| * SuprEngr downloads 1110 iso to see if fresh install kills those bugs before reporting | 14:42 | |
| SuprEngr | [how's that for dedication!] | 14:42 |
| SuprEngr | ...& it was oh so promising... no fails in upgrade - all 'apparently' working :( | 14:45 |
| penguin42 | SuprEngr: What broke? | 14:46 |
| SuprEngr | tomboy, U1, evolution [should I continue?] | 14:46 |
| penguin42 | hmm | 14:46 |
| penguin42 | upgrade from 11.04 ? | 14:46 |
| SuprEngr | shame... it reallly did go so well & in normal use noone would notice any fail... guess I'm not normal | 14:47 |
| SuprEngr | ;) | 14:47 |
| SuprEngr | penguin42, yup, upgrade in place 11.04 -> 11.10 | 14:48 |
| SuprEngr | 1st time I'd tried it - always done fresh instals before | 14:48 |
| SuprEngr | but I still will not knock it or Ubuntu - I am given this software for very little in return... so I find what's wrong, I report bugs | 14:50 |
| SuprEngr | [pity others in some other channels forget that ethos | 14:51 |
| SuprEngr | still... theres BTCC on ITV4 to pass the download / install time ;) | 14:53 |
| * SuprEngr hums waiting for iso to download .... & shuts gob due to realisation of channel hogging :D | 14:57 | |
