[01:38] <xmpx> sorry
[02:47] <philipballew> whats the best way to make an image of my hd?
[03:23] <holstein> philipballew: try clonezilla :)
[03:24] <holstein> http://clonezilla.org/ AFAIK it uses the usual tools... dd or whatever
[03:24] <philipballew> alright. I will. I gotta send the laptop in after i dropped it and messed up the casing :)
[03:24] <philipballew> yeah, I was unsure if dd was the best way
[03:30] <holstein> philipballew: :/
[03:30] <holstein> drag
[03:31] <philipballew> yeah. but at least i still have a desktop for the next week
[04:32] <CrazyThinker> From which version does ubuntu ship with unity?
[04:33] <urlin2u> Natty
[04:33] <urlin2u> and each consecutive
[04:33] <CrazyThinker> 11.04?
[04:34] <CrazyThinker> I like it since I come from windows
[04:34] <CrazyThinker> When will be the next version released? Where can I find the UI designs of that?
[04:36] <holstein> CrazyThinker: 12.04... the 12 is the year, and the 4 is the month
[04:36] <holstein> 11.10 is october (.10) of 2011 (11)
[04:37] <CrazyThinker> holstein, will unity be improved in 12.04?
[04:37] <holstein> it will be rev's
[04:37] <holstein> improvment is a matter of opinion
[04:38] <CrazyThinker> Were any images of this new unity in 12.04 released?
[04:38] <CrazyThinker> Only 5 months to release. right?
[04:38] <holstein> CrazyThinker: there arent really pics up like that
[04:39] <holstein> you can download the daily image, install, and update, and keep track of it in realtime
[04:39] <CrazyThinker> awesome, link?
[04:39] <holstein> i wouldnt expect it too be much different looking
[04:39] <urlin2u> CrazyThinker, here is the daily, remember though that with ubuntu and desktop changes this image is a daily not the finished release.  http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/
[04:40] <holstein> and i wouldnt install 12.04 on anythin you are expecting to use stable
[04:40] <holstein> expect breakage
[04:40] <CrazyThinker> holstein, I don't think I can go back to windows now
[04:40] <holstein> im not suggesting you do
[04:40] <CrazyThinker> so I just want to make sure its constantly improving
[04:41] <holstein> what is?
[04:41] <holstein> unity?
[04:41] <holstein> its open.. you can go and improve it
[04:41] <CrazyThinker> unity and the other interfaces
[04:41] <CrazyThinker> lol okay
[04:41] <holstein> but, improve is a matter of opinion
[04:41] <CrazyThinker> yeah, I get it
[04:41] <holstein> its being developed right now
[04:41] <holstein> 12.04 is a special release
[04:42] <holstein> its an LTS (long term support)
[04:42] <holstein> it will be supported for 5 years now in the desktop
[04:42] <CrazyThinker> Why, because it is supported for 4 years?
[04:42] <CrazyThinker> oh okay

[12:00] <CrazyThinker> When I use apt-get purge empathy, It shows gnome and gnome-core to be removed
[12:01] <CrazyThinker> Does that mean gnome will be removed along with empahty :O ?

[12:12] <bioterror> used for fetchint gnome sturf
[12:12] <bioterror> as empathy integrates with gnomes top bar

[15:28] <holstein> CrazyThinker: what skype are you using?
[15:28] <CrazyThinker> skype 2.2 beta
[15:28] <CrazyThinker> skype 2.2.0.35 to be exact
[15:29] <holstein> i was having issues getting that installed in 11.10
[15:53] <CrazyThinker> holstein, did you install skype-wrapper?
[15:54] <holstein> CrazyThinker: i dont think so... if it wasnt pulled in automatically, i probably didnt know about it
[15:54] <holstein> it was for someone else, and i havent taken the time to further investigate
[15:55] <CrazyThinker> Oh okay
