[09:27] <royan> Great. Christmas over, time to get back to some sort of normaiity. (oh wait, Easter eggs in the shops already?)
[09:28] <moylan1> the supermarkets would be happier if holidays were more evenly spaced.  after easter a big slump till halloween
[09:28] <czajkowski> aloha
[09:29] <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.
[09:31] <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
[09:32] <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
[09:33] <royan> google gives zero results for that message.
[09:35] <moylan1> and it boots normally otherwise?  win7 win8 on the same system?
[09:36] <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
[09:37] <moylan1> when you get automatic updates does it not offer an option to update to oneric?
[09:38] <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...
[09:39] <royan> Maybe I could take an alternate CD and build my own local mirror? how hard can that be?
[09:40] <moylan1> perhaps but always remember backup backup backup.
[09:49] <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.
[10:35] <moylan1> easiest, safest way
[11:27] <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.
[11:29] <tdr112> czajkowski: i know about it and am keeping an eye on it , should be fun
[11:35] <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
[11:36] <davem> although you may be right
[11:48] <royan> all our cd/dvd drives at work have writing disabled :(
[11:50] <tdr112> hey i am thinking of having a ubuntu hour this sat afternoon
[11:51] <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
[11:52]  * ebel might be interested
[11:54] <ebel> still have cds. i've emailed list again
[12:21] <slashtommy> tdr112: sure!
[12:22]  * slashtommy would suggest the previous location of cappucino bar in temple bar - varied selection of foods, central location and reasonable price
[12:37] <tdr112> slashtommy: sure
[12:38] <tdr112> i will do up an email this afternoon
[12:42] <slashtommy> maybe ebel could bring some CDs along, for some distribution
[12:42] <ebel> aye
