[00:45] <philipballew_> Darkwing, will you be around hillcrest tomorrow ?
[00:47] <pleia2> nhaines: not sure if it's too late, but paul sladen had me open a bug for the pangolin SVG (started asking around when you brought it up the other day)
[00:47] <pleia2> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-branding/+bug/890497
[00:47] <pleia2> he's going to dig through the network share at the office to see if he can find it :)
[00:59] <nhaines> pleia2: It's too late for the talk but not for the general presentation!
[01:00] <nhaines> Also, Paul Sladen is awesome.
[03:15] <Corey> Hello, downtown San Francisco.
[03:23] <pleia2> hi Corey
[03:23] <Corey> pleia2: You have a neat city.
[03:23] <Corey> Aside from the stabbed-by-a-hobo risk factor being uncomfortably high.
[03:24] <pleia2> thanks, it depends on the neighborhood and time of day
[03:25] <pleia2> I walk alone downtown at night pretty often, mostly I have to worry more about being hit by a car in a crosswalk or bicycle on the sidewalk
[03:26] <Corey> pleia2: Yeah, I'm in the flatiron building this week.
[03:27] <pleia2> Corey: ah, I walked by there about an hour ago
[03:28] <pleia2> it's pretty safe down there
[03:28] <pleia2> I live just a few blocks away
[03:33] <locodir-user> hi guys
[03:33] <locodir-user> any one that can help me
[03:33] <locodir-user> i can install nothing in ubuntu 11.10
[03:34] <Corey> pleia2: I'm being mostly snarky.  I live in LA. :-)
[03:34] <Corey> So compared to that, SF is fine.
[03:35] <pleia2> locodir-user: what are you using to install, and do you get errors?
[03:35] <pleia2> Corey: haha ok :) some people are just scared of cities in general (I used to be!)
[03:36] <locodir-user> ask me for repair, and after says that items can not be installed or removed until th package catalog is repaired
[03:37] <pleia2> locodir-user: can you paste exactly what it says at http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and give us the link?
[03:41] <Corey> pleia2: One of these days I'll have to get you to sign my GPG key.  I'm still kicking myself for going all the way to Chicago to meet nhandler and forgetting to have him do that. :-p
[03:42] <pleia2> haha, doh
[03:42] <Corey> At least my wife found him amusing. :-p
[03:42] <pleia2> I still haven't met nhandler
[03:42] <Corey> Oh, it's a treat.
[03:42] <Corey> Scary smart.
[03:42] <pleia2> he's one of the few ubuntu people I work with a lot and haven't met
[03:42] <pleia2> yeah
[03:42] <Corey> Unfortunately he's not coming to the Freenode Staff gathering next month. :-(
[03:43] <pleia2> I think he's too busy to travel much
[03:43] <pleia2> oh, there is a bay area lug meeting tomorrow night if you're around and interested http://www.balug.org/
[03:44] <Corey> pleia2: Hmm.
[03:44] <pleia2> doing a regex workshop, it's walkable from sutter and market
[03:44] <Corey> pleia2: You've convinced me.
[03:45] <Corey> Tossing it into the calendar.
[03:45] <Corey> How do I recognize y'all?
[03:45] <locodir-user> this is exactly what it says: items can not be installed or removed until th package catalog is repaired
[03:46] <pleia2> Corey: the chinese restaurant knows us, so just tell them you're with the linux people, we hang out near the bar from 6:30-7
[03:46] <akk> A regex workshop is such a good idea for a lug meeting.
[03:46] <pleia2> then we pay $13 for family style chinese dinner together at 7PM, then presentation
[03:47] <Corey> Ah, people who hang out by the bar.  I'm home!
[03:47] <Corey> What's the presumed regexp knowledge going into this?
[03:47] <pleia2> http://lists.balug.org/pipermail/balug-announce-balug.org/2011-November/000178.html
[03:47] <pleia2> ^^ the announcement
[03:48] <pleia2> it's all very casual, I doubt any is required to feel welcome
[03:48] <akk> I bet most people there won't know much about regexps.
[03:48] <pleia2> they even included the wikipedia link to regular expressions in the announcement ;)
[03:48] <akk> It's still considered pretty esoteric/ubergeeky in most circles.
[03:48]  * pleia2 rsvps
[03:49] <akk> There's also a web-mapping social with lightning talks tomorrow night at google, for people farther south.
[03:49] <akk> (via the webmap social meetup group)

[04:22] <locodir-user> that appear on the terminal
[04:23] <pleia2> you're using a PPA that isn't active anymore, you should remove it
[04:24] <locodir-user> how can i find it???
[04:25] <pleia2> how did you add it in the first place?
[04:25] <locodir-user> i don't know
[04:26] <pleia2> the software center should have a section somewhere in the options for you to see other software, you'll want to look there
[04:26] <pleia2> (I'm not on a system with a current version of the software center, so I'm not sure exactly)
[04:28] <locodir-user> there is any way to undo installations?
[04:29] <pleia2> if you install something through the software center you can always uninstall it
[04:29] <locodir-user> but with this error how can i uninstall it?
[04:29] <locodir-user> i can't
[04:29] <pleia2> you can't find the "other software" section?
[04:31] <locodir-user> The following packages have unmet dependencies:  default-jre-headless: Depends: openjdk-6-jre-headless (>= 6b14) but it is not installed icedtea-6-jre-cacao: Depends: openjdk-6-jre-headless (= 6b23~pre10-0ubuntu5) but it is not installed                      Depends: libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1) but 1:4.6.1-9ubuntu3 is installed                      Depends: zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.4) but 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3ubuntu3 is installed icedtea-6-jre
[04:31] <locodir-user> i found this
[04:32] <pleia2> you seem to have a lot of problems happening at once, you should probably try to solve them one at a time
[04:34] <locodir-user> how can i uninstall one thing at the time?
[04:35] <pleia2> first, find the "other software" section in the software center so you can remove the older ppa repositories that are not working

[06:05] <seidos> hi everybody.  i got this link from the crash space mailing list, thought some may be interested in signing:  https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petitions/!/petition/propose-congress-governance-accountability-and-ethics-act-gaea-enforce-ethics-provisions-public/HkY9F7lH?utm_source=wh.gov&utm_medium=shorturl&utm_campaign=shorturl
[06:36]  * philipballew reads seidos link
[15:53] <nhaines> pleia2: "Some people, when confronted with a problem, think 'I know, I'll use regular expressions.'  Now they have two problems."
[18:27] <philipballew> Darkwing, you around?
[18:28] <pleia2> philipballew: ubuntu hour on for this evening? (haven't updated twitter yet)
[18:29] <philipballew> pleia2, well I have not been able to get a hold of anyone else about it yet
[18:29] <akk> Speaking of which, is there a mountain view one this thursday?
[18:30] <nhaines> Hmm, that reminds me... I'd better announce UH in Lake Forest for Thursday.
[18:30] <nhaines> Only two more.  :)
[18:30] <pleia2> philipballew: will you be there?
[18:31] <philipballew> pleia2, I can try if i eed to. It seems like it might not be a smart thing to go there on my own and be the phil show for the third time
[18:32] <pleia2> philipballew: I don't see a problem with it, nhaines and I run our respective ubuntu hours ourselves
[18:32] <pleia2> having a team is nice, but not required :)
[18:32] <philipballew> pleia2, well yeah, but you have people show up to yours
[18:32] <nhaines> Last time I did, but the time before that it was just me for an hour.
[18:33] <pleia2> one of the risks of ubuntu hours is that no one shows up, the important thing is that they're regular and if people want to show up they can
[18:33] <pleia2> if you don't want to do it that's fine, but it's not actually a problem as far as the team or ubuntu hours are concerned
[18:34] <pleia2> right now you have one "might be attending" registrant for tonight
[18:34] <pleia2> http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-california/1203/detail/
[18:34] <philipballew> true. If it is only me that is going to be running it, then i'll be changing the location to be closer to me. I texted kevin an hour ago to see if he is around tonight
[18:35] <philipballew> also, dave had it for every 2 weeks. I need to make it once a month
[18:35] <pleia2> yeah, I can only do once a month too
[18:35] <nhaines> Do a month leadout on that if you can.
[18:36] <nhaines> Like pleia2 says, the only way that the UH can ever grow is if it's regular and reliable.
[18:36] <nhaines> Once a month is *really* tempting for me.  But I do twice a month because I'm worried by the time a month passes I'll forget.  ;)
[18:37] <philipballew> exactly, and it seems that I can easily make it so, however I might just change the place soon so I can have more control over it if possible
[18:37] <philipballew> and be able to manage things when the place is by where i live
[18:38] <philipballew> instead of a hour bike ride
[18:38] <nhaines> Right, but give as much advance notice as is possible.
[18:39] <philipballew> yeah, thats what I am going to do. I think it will change after the holidays.
[18:39] <philipballew> unless dave is going to take over managing it again.
[18:40] <philipballew> but he seems busy lately
[18:41] <nhaines> A new year is a perfect time for a new schedule!
[18:41] <nhaines> Sometimes the "Step down considerately" bit of the CoC is harder than it sounds.
[18:41] <philipballew> ill be moving it back to the place nhaines visited probably.
[18:44] <philipballew> but i am not sure if that is to far out of the way
[18:44] <jtatum> speaking of.. need to setup thursday's UH
[18:48] <philipballew> pleia2, Ill tech iheartubuntu and get him to tweet if later if probably. thank you. If nothing happens, ill try to get a hold of Darkwing soon
[18:48] <nhaines> If that's the place you can get to, then that's the best place to hold it.
[18:49] <jyo> Woah, Unity 2D is pretty nice.
[18:52] <nhaines> jyo: it's improved immensely.
[19:14] <pleia2> nhaines: oh! progress https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-branding/+bug/890497
[19:14] <pleia2> an .eps and .pdf (I haven't had a chance to look at them carefully)
[19:16] <nhaines> Boo, eps.  :)
[19:17] <pleia2> indeed
[19:18] <pleia2> but better than psd :)
[19:18] <nhaines> Yes.  :)  Okay, they look like a good start.
[19:19] <nhaines> And perfect for throwing in an ODP file.  I'll try to do an SVG and attach it to the bug report tonight, but I'm kinda busy this week.  :/
[19:59] <pleia2> nhaines: they uploaded an svg!
[19:59] <pleia2> and added the link to  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Precise :)
[20:27] <philipballew> pleia2, I have not herd from dave, and being that this is his ubuntu hour. I am pretty sure he is not going to have this thing happening tonight :(
[20:28] <pleia2> philipballew: ok, can you delete the loco directory event and make an announcement?
[20:29] <pleia2> there is one person who said they might come (and you are registered as attending)
[20:30] <pleia2> sending a message directly to the person who might be coming is probably a good idea too (if they don't have an email address in launchpad you can use the contact form in lp)
[20:30] <philipballew> I'll look into it. who is this person?
[20:30] <pleia2> http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-california/1203/detail/
[20:30] <pleia2> under "Maybe Attending (1)"
[20:31] <philipballew> I can email him and see if he is truly going to be coming and if he is I can go probably
[20:32] <philipballew> i dont have a problem going to the hour. its just that it is daves our and he has not said anything about it actually happening
[20:32] <pleia2> have you emailed him?
[20:32] <pleia2> thanks for handling this
[20:33] <philipballew> I have and he did not respond. also texted and pinged him here
[20:33] <philipballew> ill email him again
[20:35] <philipballew> also, the additional guest does not have an email on launchpad
[20:35] <philipballew> its all good pleia2 . I am happy to try to sort all it out
[20:36] <pleia2> philipballew: click on the "contact this user" on the upper right in launchpad
[20:36] <pleia2> it sends an email to them
[20:36] <philipballew> Ill invite him and head out tonight. maybe he can come and make i a fun hour
[20:41] <philipballew> I emailed him reminding him about the hour pleia2
[20:41] <philipballew> so he might email me back saying he can come
[20:42] <pleia2> thanks :)
[20:49] <philipballew> pleia2, alright, I hope this issue can be worked out eventually
[20:58] <philipballew> Today were learning about wiki's in my management class to help plan projects. I was the only one who had experience with it
[20:58] <bkerensa> Let us be precise about the pangolin :P
[21:07] <philipballew> pleia2, But if the might be attending says no he will not, then I will probably not go as dave has said nothing about it
[21:13] <nhaines> philipballew: tiddlywiki is a fun little thing.
[21:24] <philipballew> I just currently have no way to get there. I could take the bus. maybe i'll do that
[21:26] <philipballew> i crashed on my bake last week and still need to get it fixed
[23:04] <BotenAnna> does anyone use tumblr
[23:04] <BotenAnna> or know of any good ubuntu/oss tumblrs
[23:43] <philipballew> pleia2, you around.
[23:43] <philipballew> The San Diego Ubuntu is on!
[23:43] <jtatum> woohoo
[23:44] <philipballew> and I'm gonna bring a friend!
[23:45] <pleia2> philipballew: great! shall @ubuntu_us_ca tweet it? :)
[23:45] <philipballew> I dont see why not!
[23:45] <pleia2> k, doing so now
[23:45]  * philipballew prepares to retweet
[23:46] <nhaines> philipballew: congrats!
[23:47] <philipballew> after several calls dave answered and were all good nhaines
[23:50] <philipballew> he's busy lately
[23:59] <philipballew> thanks pleia2
