[00:31] <goddard> why does VLC have a cone for its icon ?
[00:43] <bkero> That's in their FAQ.
[00:59] <goddard> shoot some one gots ta read dat
[00:59] <slangasek> bkerensa: why not just use a chroot?
[01:00] <goddard> bkero: i dont see dat on tha faq
[01:02] <bkero> goddard: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VLC_media_player
[01:02] <bkero> The cone icon used in VLC is a reference to the traffic cones collected by Ecole Centrale's Networking Students' Association.[7] The cone icon design was changed from a hand drawn low resolution icon[8] to a higher resolution CGI-rendered version in 2006, illustrated by Richard Øiestad.[9]
[01:02] <iBkerensa> slangasek: i have had difficulty getting a chroot setup properly on recise for debian while setting up one for ubuntu was fine
[01:03] <goddard> oh wikipedia
[01:03] <goddard> so it was just random?
[01:05] <slangasek> iBkerensa: I would suggest that getting a Debian chroot working would be a worthwhile exercise; rebooting every time you want to work on packages would be a little tedious
[01:14] <bkero> is iBkerensa the improvedBkerensa, without lung problems?
[01:19] <c_smith_> hello
[01:47] <c_smith_> yo
[01:49] <c_smith_> anyone here?
[02:16] <bkero> of course
[02:18] <c_smith_> bkero: would you care to take a look at my blog and let me know what I could improve and what I could do differenlty (aside from update it more frequently, I'm working on that part)
[02:18] <bkero> i can take a quick glance, but it's 0218 here
[02:20] <c_smith_> ah, well, if you don't have time, I'll leave you a link and you can save it and email me your response to cody.smith9202@gmail.com
[02:20] <c_smith_> the blog is http://csmith0292.wordpress.com/
[08:51] <bkerensa> good morning of sorts
[09:08] <bkerensa> slangasek: This is the chroot issue I was having http://paste.ubuntu.com/849709/
[17:25] <c_smith_> hyello
[17:26] <slangasek> bkerensa: if you run that last command manually (assuming you've left the sid directory unpacked), what do you see?
[17:26] <c_smith_> what's going on?
[17:28] <c_smith_> is bkerensa having issues getting a deb package to build?
[17:50] <c_smith_> loving my flash drive with Portable Apps installed on it, most of it is open source,
[18:01] <MarkDude> Portable apps is great
[18:01] <MarkDude> Most of them will run with wine

[18:45] <Guest65979> haha awesome
[21:10] <bkerensa> blkperl: I'm going to be headed out to the PAB building here in a bit.... I have to run by UPS Store first but then on my way
[21:13] <bkerensa> slangasek: It says this http://paste.ubuntu.com/850527/
[21:13] <bkerensa> hello Guest3542  and Guest65979 :)
[21:13] <bkerensa> oh and hello wendar
[21:13] <slangasek> bkerensa: hum, strange
[21:14] <bkerensa> c_smith_: Nope I'm trying to setup a chroot
[21:14] <bkerensa> slangasek: Indeed... dholbach said this was the best way to do a chroot and I have been going off a older guide on wiki that apparently is no good
[21:15] <slangasek> there was nothing wrong with the command you ran, I would've commented earlier if there had been
[21:15] <slangasek> this looks to be a rather serious bug in the bootstrapping of sid, but not one I've heard of before now
[21:15] <bkerensa> :D
[21:15] <slangasek> I'm testing to see if I can reproduce it
[21:15] <bkerensa> slangasek: I'm running 12.04
[21:15] <bkerensa> just for reproducing purposes
[21:19] <wendar> hi bkerensa
[21:26] <slangasek> bkerensa: can't reproduce the bug.  Can you try debootstrapping again, from the top?
[21:27] <bkerensa> certainly
[21:29] <bkerensa> slangasek: http://paste.ubuntu.com/850550/
[21:30] <slangasek> bkerensa: did you delete the sid directory first?
[21:31] <bkerensa> yep rm -f r ~/sid
[21:31]  * slangasek nods
[21:31] <slangasek> can I see the output of ls -l /etc/motd ~/sid/etc/motd ?
[21:31] <bkerensa> sure
[21:32] <bkerensa> http://paste.ubuntu.com/850557/
[21:33] <albrigha> oops
[21:34] <albrigha> i wish i could get xchat to log me in automatically. is there some setting i'm missing??
[21:35] <bkerensa> albrigha: Just use znc? :)
[21:35] <slangasek> bkerensa: "no such file or directory" - that's strange, since that's the file it complains about when you run the dpkg command manually
[21:35] <bkerensa> slangasek: yes but i rm -f -r ~/sid
[21:35] <bkerensa> :)
[21:35] <bkerensa> ^
[21:35] <slangasek> bkerensa: er, you did that *after* running debootstrap the second time?
[21:36] <bkerensa> slangasek: each time just to make sure I was working with a crispy attempt :)
[21:36] <bkerensa> let me run again and then ls for u
[21:36] <slangasek> well, I need to see the output of the command when ~/sid exists ;)
[21:37] <slangasek> could I see ~/sid/debootstrap/debootstrap.log as well?
[21:40] <bkerensa> surely
[21:42] <bkerensa> slangasek: Most puzzling it seems to be proceeding past where it hung previously
[21:42] <bkerensa> good news for me I guess
[21:42] <bkerensa> :D
[21:42] <slangasek> heh, ok
[21:43] <bkerensa> slangasek: Thanks for the help... Now I'm off to drop a bundle of CD's with the PSU folks and hopefully find a UPS Store downtown
[21:43] <bkerensa> :D
[21:45] <slangasek> enjoy :)
[21:55] <blkperl> bkerensa: pong
[21:55] <blkperl> im in class again
[21:57] <bkerensa> blkperl: its ok :) I'm inroute to PSU will drop off a bundle at the desk... Hopefully the right desk
