[14:05] <thafreak> Morning Ohio
[14:06] <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
[14:07] <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
[14:08] <jrgifford> thafreak: unity?
[14:09] <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?
[14:10] <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
[14:11] <thafreak> maybe i should email them...see if it's something they've heard others report
[14:24] <jrgifford> hm.
[15:07] <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
[15:08] <paultag> thafreak: site:ubuntuforums.org search phrase
[15:08] <paultag> google :)
[16:40] <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
[16:41] <thafreak> i like my job, just wish some one else was my boss
[17:34] <_bbb> im gonna need you to go ahead and come in on saturday
[18:01] <jrgifford> paultag: +1 for site:<sitename>.
[18:16] <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
[18:23] <_bbb> i have no trouble forgetting either
[19:35] <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?
[19:36] <thafreak> does checkinstall work like that?
[19:36] <paultag> thafreak: it does in theory
[19:36] <paultag> but checkinstall is meh
[19:37] <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 ?
[19:38] <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
[19:39] <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
[19:40] <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
[19:41] <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 :)
[19:42] <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
[19:43] <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
[19:44] <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
[19:45] <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
[19:46] <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
[19:47] <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
[19:55] <_bbb> cant truss it
[19:55] <_bbb> no no no no
