| thafreak | So, anyone run into the problem where your screen is locked overnight, and when you come back, you move the mouse, type on the keyboard etc | 14:06 |
| thafreak | and the screen comes back up, but no prompt apears to unlock the screen | 14:06 |
| thafreak | it used to hapen randomly on 10.10...now it seems to happen almost every day on 11.10.... | 14:07 |
| thafreak | no idea what's going on... | 14:07 |
| thafreak | i tried switching to a virtual console, logging in and killing the gnome-screen saver process, but no luck | 14:07 |
| jrgifford | thafreak: unity? | 14:08 |
| thafreak | yeah currently, but this happened alot on 10.10 before unity too | 14:09 |
| jrgifford | hm. | 14:09 |
| jrgifford | haven't experienced this on my netbook - whats your graphics card? | 14:09 |
| thafreak | some ati card | 14:10 |
| thafreak | the machine was built by system 76...so you'd think it'd be a ubuntu friendly graphics card | 14:10 |
| thafreak | maybe i should email them...see if it's something they've heard others report | 14:11 |
| jrgifford | hm. | 14:24 |
| thafreak | so system 76 has their own forum on the ubuntu forums... | 15:07 |
| thafreak | but the search sucks | 15:07 |
| thafreak | why can't you search on phrases? keywords suck | 15:07 |
| paultag | thafreak: site:ubuntuforums.org search phrase | 15:08 |
| paultag | google :) | 15:08 |
| thafreak | So my boss came in and said she was concerned...she doesn't want me to take any classes for atleast a year | 16:40 |
| thafreak | so i can focus on this grant | 16:40 |
| thafreak | which is supposedly only for 60% of my time | 16:40 |
| thafreak | i like my job, just wish some one else was my boss | 16:41 |
| _bbb | im gonna need you to go ahead and come in on saturday | 17:34 |
| jrgifford | paultag: +1 for site:<sitename>. | 18:01 |
| dzho | oh heavens to murgatroid | 18:16 |
| dzho | I have the hardest time remembering "zareason" | 18:16 |
| dzho | but none at all remembering "system76" | 18:16 |
| dzho | this makes me sad | 18:16 |
| _bbb | i have no trouble forgetting either | 18:23 |
| thafreak | So i remember there being a tool which takes a python source package, and auto converts it to a deb | 19:35 |
| thafreak | is there something similar for a normal source package? | 19:35 |
| thafreak | does checkinstall work like that? | 19:36 |
| paultag | thafreak: it does in theory | 19:36 |
| paultag | but checkinstall is meh | 19:36 |
| paultag | you're better off debizing it yourself | 19:37 |
| thafreak | isn't there a tool to gen most of the debian/ dir for you? | 19:37 |
| paultag | yeah, but it's old and krufty | 19:37 |
| paultag | what software, thafreak ? | 19:37 |
| thafreak | so what's the state of the art then for making the debian dir? | 19:38 |
| thafreak | lessfs | 19:38 |
| paultag | thafreak: use one of my packages, I keep them well maintained | 19:38 |
| paultag | thafreak: is there a configure, make and make install | 19:38 |
| paultag | and is it automake? | 19:38 |
| thafreak | dunno if it's automake...but there's the usual configure make make install deal | 19:38 |
| thafreak | it's pretty simple... | 19:39 |
| paultag | thafreak: take this | 19:39 |
| paultag | thafreak: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/fbautostart.git;a=tree;f=debian;h=3ac73810316f553f65a1bb5c611e6b343fc5771c;hb=6ebf98b80ba2ee916c73baf779fe0d9fff6c74b4 | 19:39 |
| thafreak | not sure why it's not already packaged actually | 19:39 |
| paultag | thafreak: clone that guy, and that'll work | 19:39 |
| paultag | just change up the control & changelog | 19:39 |
| paultag | rm the watch | 19:39 |
| paultag | and clean up the copyright | 19:39 |
| paultag | and it'd be archive worthy as well | 19:39 |
| paultag | thafreak: then you can send it to a ppa | 19:40 |
| paultag | then you won't have to work about krufty checkinstall crap | 19:40 |
| paultag | and you can rebuild every release | 19:40 |
| thafreak | still haven't read up on setting up a ppa... | 19:41 |
| thafreak | it's been high on my todo list...just haven't been looking at my todo list | 19:41 |
| paultag | just do it :) | 19:41 |
| thafreak | lessfs is pretty pimp on paper, fyi...inline deduplication, transparent compression, optional crypto and i think it can do replication too... | 19:42 |
| paultag | well | 19:42 |
| paultag | unless it's fuse you're going to have a tough time | 19:42 |
| paultag | because of kernel module shit | 19:42 |
| thafreak | oh yeah, it's fuse | 19:42 |
| paultag | oh, cool | 19:43 |
| paultag | well then good to go | 19:43 |
| thafreak | can you make a ppa that's usable on debian? | 19:43 |
| paultag | http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=570439 | 19:43 |
| paultag | thafreak: no, sadly | 19:43 |
| paultag | thafreak: but it looks like there's an ITP | 19:43 |
| paultag | you should introduce it to Debian | 19:43 |
| paultag | oh wait | 19:44 |
| paultag | ah yeah, someone packaged it, but it's fuck all | 19:44 |
| thafreak | yeah it's not quite there yet | 19:44 |
| paultag | but it's been a month | 19:44 |
| thafreak | i'm waiting on it | 19:44 |
| paultag | let me find the thread | 19:44 |
| paultag | got the RFS | 19:44 |
| paultag | OK, zigo@debian.org rejected it with a reqest to fix it up | 19:45 |
| paultag | end of thread | 19:45 |
| paultag | Would you mind being a bit more verbose in your package description | 19:45 |
| paultag | (maybe now AND next time you write an RFS) and motivation? Explaining | 19:45 |
| paultag | what a "deduplicating filesystem" and why it is nice to use it would be | 19:45 |
| paultag | a start... | 19:45 |
| paultag | actually, it's not even in the package | 19:45 |
| paultag | just motivation | 19:45 |
| paultag | oop and he fucked up his copyright | 19:46 |
| paultag | lots of manpages missing | 19:46 |
| paultag | bad version of dh | 19:46 |
| paultag | yeah, shit, this is in rough shape | 19:46 |
| thafreak | yeah...so for now, it's build from source for me | 19:47 |
| paultag | yep | 19:47 |
| thafreak | not even sure i can trust it yet... | 19:47 |
| thafreak | gonna do some testing first | 19:47 |
| paultag | yep | 19:47 |
| _bbb | cant truss it | 19:55 |
| _bbb | no no no no | 19:55 |
