| royan | Great. Christmas over, time to get back to some sort of normaiity. (oh wait, Easter eggs in the shops already?) | 09:27 |
|---|---|---|
| moylan1 | the supermarkets would be happier if holidays were more evenly spaced. after easter a big slump till halloween | 09:28 |
| czajkowski | aloha | 09:28 |
| moylan1 | hi czajkowski | 09:29 |
| czajkowski | hows folks? | 09:29 |
| moylan1 | actaully have ocelot downloaded and keep meaning to try it but just haven't got there yet. | 09:29 |
| royan | I'm trying to figure how to upgrade my natty to oneiric with the livecd | 09:31 |
| royan | supposedly the installer (since 10.10?) can do this | 09:31 |
| royan | mine seems to have trouble spotting that there's an existing OS on the HD. | 09:32 |
| royan | http://hackery.net/~jmb/images/oneiric-install-no-detected-os.png | 09:32 |
| royan | google gives zero results for that message. | 09:33 |
| moylan1 | and it boots normally otherwise? win7 win8 on the same system? | 09:35 |
| royan | boots fine otherwise - everyday machine | 09:36 |
| royan | and no, not polluted with Redmond creations | 09:36 |
| royan | but it does use LVM - perhaps the installer can't deal with that? | 09:36 |
| moylan1 | i can see that problem been reported on win7 and win8 systems on google. so far no ubuntu mentions | 09:36 |
| moylan1 | when you get automatic updates does it not offer an option to update to oneric? | 09:37 |
| royan | sure it does, but we're on a glacial and flaky rural "broad"band connection here so I'm trying to use a CD if I can | 09:38 |
| moylan1 | ah... | 09:38 |
| royan | Maybe I could take an alternate CD and build my own local mirror? how hard can that be? | 09:39 |
| moylan1 | perhaps but always remember backup backup backup. | 09:40 |
| royan | Tempted to get a new HD and install to that, then copy stuff over. This isn't a critical server or anything, mostly an Eclipse dev box. | 09:49 |
| moylan1 | easiest, safest way | 10:35 |
| davem | royan: afaik you can add the CD as a repository to apt, that should cut down on alot of bandwidth requirements | 11:27 |
| czajkowski | tdr112: | 11:27 |
| czajkowski | The guys behind London Hackspace are thinking about organising a 'Hacker | 11:27 |
| czajkowski | Camp' in the UK this year. They've amusingly called it 'Electromagnetic | 11:27 |
| czajkowski | Field'. They're trying to gauge support via their website:- | 11:27 |
| czajkowski | http://www.emfcamp.org/ | 11:27 |
| czajkowski | Take a look and if you're interested, you might want to help them out in | 11:27 |
| czajkowski | some way, links on the site. Location is currently not set but is under | 11:27 |
| czajkowski | discussion. | 11:27 |
| tdr112 | czajkowski: i know about it and am keeping an eye on it , should be fun | 11:29 |
| royan | davem: I think you can only do that with the alt cd? | 11:35 |
| davem | this would be in the already installed os, add the cd as another repo | 11:35 |
| davem | although you may be right | 11:36 |
| royan | all our cd/dvd drives at work have writing disabled :( | 11:48 |
| tdr112 | hey i am thinking of having a ubuntu hour this sat afternoon | 11:50 |
| tdr112 | anyone up for meeting for a cup of tea | 11:51 |
| moylan1 | location? | 11:51 |
| moylan1 | ah, might have game on. not sure yet | 11:51 |
| * ebel might be interested | 11:52 | |
| ebel | still have cds. i've emailed list again | 11:54 |
| slashtommy | tdr112: sure! | 12:21 |
| * slashtommy would suggest the previous location of cappucino bar in temple bar - varied selection of foods, central location and reasonable price | 12:22 | |
| tdr112 | slashtommy: sure | 12:37 |
| tdr112 | i will do up an email this afternoon | 12:38 |
| slashtommy | maybe ebel could bring some CDs along, for some distribution | 12:42 |
