| govatent | hey guys | 01:39 |
|---|---|---|
| govatent | oh wait, its not tuesday. i thought today was our meeting. | 01:40 |
| govatent | I just got my new laptop. | 01:40 |
| govatent | Currently running xchat in osx. going to the cafe soon to have a mini install fest with the owners | 01:40 |
| svwilliams | govatent, is it a new mac? | 01:51 |
| govatent | yea | 01:52 |
| govatent | I was going to go for a thinkpad but i love the gpu used in the new macbook pros | 01:53 |
| govatent | plus i got a very very nice discount. | 01:53 |
| svwilliams | nice! we were given ones at work ... I haven't had time to put ubuntu on it except as a VM ... just not the same | 01:54 |
| govatent | I plan on running it native asap. just have a lot to do tonight | 01:54 |
| govatent | although osx is quite nice. :P still not ubuntu | 01:54 |
| svwilliams | thats my issue with it | 01:54 |
| svwilliams | it feels like linux | 01:54 |
| svwilliams | until you run into the not linux parts and you are like SHOOT its a mac | 01:55 |
| govatent | I got the 15" 2.2 I7 with 4 GB and the amd gpu with 512 mb of gddr5 | 01:55 |
| svwilliams | nice | 01:55 |
| govatent | I just can't wait to see ubuntu on it :) | 01:55 |
| govatent | i feel bad that i bought the mac hardware. i was gonna go system76 but i needed a credit line to help buy this | 01:56 |
| govatent | i got one year to pay this off | 01:56 |
| svwilliams | thats whats holding me off on getting a personal laptop | 01:56 |
| svwilliams | hopefully the thk and christmas holidays will give me enough time to install ubuntu natively on the work on | 01:57 |
| svwilliams | nice little 17 inch :-) 2.2 I7 with 8GB | 01:57 |
| govatent | i wish system76 also offered some credit help. i have good credit and no money so i take advantage of the no interest stuff | 01:57 |
| govatent | i can do smaller payments than one lump sum when i buy tech stuff | 01:58 |
| govatent | nice | 01:58 |
| govatent | i notice that the macs only run ram at 1333 vs 1600 | 01:58 |
| govatent | I am going to tare this laptop open right away though. swapping the stock 500 5400 rpm for my old 500 7200 rpm | 01:59 |
| svwilliams | nice | 02:01 |
| svwilliams | I've always assumed that mac made it difficult to swap things in and out | 02:04 |
| svwilliams | they bought us the same hdd 500 5400 | 02:05 |
| govatent | The current models are pretty easy to work with. ram and hdd. | 02:06 |
| govatent | test | 03:10 |
| maxolasersquad_h | govatent: Test successful | 03:51 |
| himuraken | So it would seem that karmic was removed from the updates/mirrors | 04:34 |
| himuraken | I knew that it was unsupported, but now I am trying to apt-get install update-manager-core so that I can head over to LTS. Can find repos, any ideas as to a repo that still has the old data? | 04:35 |
| maxolasersquad_h | himuraken: Have you tried the various mirrors in Update Manager? | 04:36 |
| himuraken | server. working with sources.list | 04:36 |
| himuraken | I checked a few from broswer: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ | 04:36 |
| himuraken | removed us, added ru, etc, seems to be a global change. | 04:37 |
| maxolasersquad_h | You could burn the ISOs and try upgrading from the CD. | 04:37 |
| govatent | I am off to bed. It's been a really long day. Good Night | 04:38 |
| himuraken | Yeah that was a thought of mine.... | 04:38 |
| himuraken | Will pull now. | 04:38 |
| maxolasersquad_h | Good night. | 04:39 |
| maxolase1squad | For anyone interested, there's a new #ubuntu-phone channel. | 15:08 |
| kc4zvw_ | What to add a "It's Here" logo for Ubuntu to a blog ... is there a 'canned' widgit or code listed somewhere? | 16:07 |
| kc4zvw_ | s/what/want/ | 16:07 |
| maxolase1squad | kc4zvw_: http://www.ubuntu.com/sites/default/themes/ubuntu10/images/footer_logo.png is probably your best bet. | 16:21 |
| maxolase1squad | Or maybe http://www.ubuntu.com/sites/all/themes/ubuntu10/logo.png depending on your background. | 16:22 |
| kc4zvw_ | http://www.widgetbox.com/widget/countdown-for-ubuntu-next-edition | 16:30 |
| maxolase1squad | The widget doesn't come up for me, just the ad. | 16:42 |
| kc4zvw_ | I'm having the same problem | 16:55 |
| kc4zvw_ | trying to add it here: http://kc4zvw.wordpress.com/ | 16:57 |
| kc4zvw_ | This might be the real deal: http://www.ubuntu.com/community/countdown | 17:09 |
| kc4zvw_ | it works | 17:33 |

| raubvogel | Those pictures taken of everyone outside in the UDS, is there a way to get a copy of them? It seems the ones I was on (holding the warthog) did not end up on the site. | 21:13 |
| RoAkSoAx | itnet7: ping | 21:25 |
| itnet7 | raubvogel: Sean, the guy that took the pics usually posts all of them on his site http://www.pixoulphotography.com | 21:25 |
| itnet7 | he said they will be up in a bit | 21:25 |
| raubvogel | Coolness | 21:25 |
| itnet7 | He said that he was on vacation like last week or so and that they should be up kind of soon, probably after the holidays | 21:26 |
| itnet7 | on g+ | 21:26 |
| cjohnston | maxolase1squad: i havent had enough time to play round with it afterwards | 21:26 |
| cjohnston | sorry.. after seeing it at uds | 21:27 |
| raubvogel | itnet7: Thanks for the update! | 21:29 |
| itnet7 | raubvogel: no worries! | 21:29 |
