SpamapS | MarkDude: no we just want Ubuntu-interested people (especially server related) to be there to hang out and inform people about Ubuntu. | 00:43 |
---|---|---|
MarkDude | Fair enough. | 00:56 |
* MarkDude still considers himself rather interested in Ubuntu ;) | 00:57 | |
pleia2 | MarkDude is our resident Fedora guy | 00:57 |
MarkDude | FOSS guy | 00:58 |
* MarkDude has arranged for the Ubuntu table at OSCON last 2 years running | 00:58 | |
pleia2 | oh, I thought bkerensa ran it this year, sorry | 00:58 |
MarkDude | Linux and FOSS in general | 00:58 |
MarkDude | He ran it. | 00:58 |
* MarkDude got the table | 00:59 | |
pleia2 | you ran the fedora booth at scale so I get confused | 00:59 |
pleia2 | foss guy then :) | 00:59 |
MarkDude | Fair enough | 00:59 |
MarkDude | pleia2, dont you remember how I made sure to get Ubuntu media, for my Fedora party? | 00:59 |
MarkDude | :D | 00:59 |
MarkDude | Should have got a pic of you and Nixie, that was kinda epic | 01:00 |
MarkDude | In general tho, I am willing to help at Ubuntu events, and wear that hat. What is good for Linux is good for the whole ecosystem | 01:00 |
MarkDude | Like Larry the Free Software guy | 01:01 |

loubuntu | yoooo whats up | 04:50 |
loubuntu | whos got two thumbs and is building a kernel | 04:51 |
loubuntu | this guuuuuy | 04:51 |
loubuntu | man i havent bombed that bad since i played the barona casino | 04:51 |
pleia2 | hello | 04:52 |
pleia2 | people still build kernels? :) | 04:52 |
loubuntu | haha | 04:52 |
loubuntu | oh yea | 04:53 |
akk | Sometimes. | 04:53 |
loubuntu | only really cool people | 04:53 |
loubuntu | or if your stuck in the world of embedded like i am right now. :( | 04:53 |
akk | Yeah, the last kernels I built were for plug computers (and it was painful). | 04:54 |
loubuntu | my board is currently crashing when it tries to load wifi modules. | 04:54 |
pleia2 | ouch | 04:54 |
loubuntu | libertas is my least favorite word ever. | 04:55 |
akk | wifi is so often the most painful part of kernel building ^W^Wlinux | 04:55 |
akk | ugh, the libertas drivers were what I was trying to get working on plugs | 04:55 |
akk | and it never worked | 04:55 |
loubuntu | i tried building the kernel without them in, and when i flashed my image i got a kernel panic error | 04:55 |
akk | It's supposed to, it's what marvell said would work, but it never did. | 04:55 |
loubuntu | yea my embedded board has their Wi2Wi module | 04:55 |
loubuntu | i think thats what its called | 04:55 |
loubuntu | err not module... chip | 04:56 |
loubuntu | i guess is more accurate | 04:56 |
* akk is not a marvell fan despite having several friends who work there | 04:56 | |
akk | (unfortunately they don't work anywhere useful, like the engineering group that does wifi specs) | 04:56 |
loubuntu | but im pretty stoked because ive got a java vm thats like a couple of megabytes | 04:57 |
loubuntu | on there | 04:57 |
loubuntu | yaay. | 04:57 |
loubuntu | whats up phil | 04:57 |
loubuntu | you may remember me from such classic events like last nights san diego meeting. | 04:58 |
loubuntu | sooo... my theory is that i built an image with zlib included, and that was interfering with libertas... and i think i just proved that | 04:58 |
loubuntu | wtf. | 04:58 |
philipballew_ | hey! whats up loubuntu | 05:09 |
loubuntu | whats up man | 05:11 |
loubuntu | im at work. ugh. | 05:11 |
loubuntu | i dont get paid overtime. just for the record. | 05:12 |
philipballew_ | im just at school. Why staying so late loubuntu | 05:16 |
loubuntu | because this crappy embedded board im working with is giving me huge problems! | 05:22 |
loubuntu | but mainly because the man is keeping me down | 05:22 |
* MarkDude waves his cane... vaguely in direction of *the man* | 06:25 | |
nhaines | I really do like how quickly Ubuntu Server starts up. | 18:17 |
pleia2 | 12.04 or 11.10? | 18:17 |
nhaines | 10.04.4. :) | 18:20 |
nhaines | Although it'll be 12.04 soon enough. | 18:21 |
pleia2 | ah :) | 18:21 |
pleia2 | I was going to say boot speed has suffered since 10.04, but it's improved again for 12.04 ;) | 18:21 |
pleia2 | but I guess you don't notice! | 18:21 |
nhaines | Nope! Not for a VPS. Seems to have booted up in seconds. | 18:23 |
nhaines | Not bad for 64MB RAM. ;) | 18:23 |
nhaines | I may just upgrade today. I've been wanting to try the new byobu and tmux to see how that works. | 18:23 |
pleia2 | greg-g: your blog post inspired me to finally install offlineimap (I've been using mutt for my imap stuff via my server, but it's too slow to use for real often) | 21:14 |
pleia2 | (although I don't remember now where I saw your post, and can only find old ones now ;)) | 21:16 |
greg-g | pleia2: I linked to it when I dented/tweeted that I am setting up my x200s with debian :) | 21:18 |
greg-g | and yay! | 21:18 |
pleia2 | ah, that must have been it :) | 21:18 |
pleia2 | too much internets, I get confused | 21:18 |
greg-g | :) ditto | 21:19 |
pleia2 | I didn't realize how simple offlineimap was to set up, I should have done this ages ago | 21:27 |
pleia2 | of course it's going to take a day to download all my mail | 21:27 |
