[00:43] <SpamapS> MarkDude: no we just want Ubuntu-interested people (especially server related) to be there to hang out and inform people about Ubuntu.
[00:56] <MarkDude> Fair enough.
[00:57]  * MarkDude still considers himself rather interested in  Ubuntu ;)
[00:57] <pleia2> MarkDude is our resident Fedora guy
[00:58] <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.
[00:59]  * 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
[01:00] <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
[01:01] <MarkDude> Like Larry the Free Software guy
[04:50] <loubuntu> yoooo whats up
[04:51] <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
[04:52] <pleia2> hello
[04:52] <pleia2> people still build kernels? :)
[04:52] <loubuntu> haha
[04:53] <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. :(
[04:54] <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
[04:55] <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
[04:56] <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)
[04:57] <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
[04:58] <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.
[05:09] <philipballew_> hey! whats up loubuntu
[05:11] <loubuntu> whats up man
[05:11] <loubuntu> im at work. ugh.
[05:12] <loubuntu> i dont get paid overtime.  just for the record.
[05:16] <philipballew_> im just at school. Why staying so late loubuntu
[05:22] <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
[06:25]  * MarkDude waves his cane... vaguely in direction of *the man*
[18:17] <nhaines> I really do like how quickly Ubuntu Server starts up.
[18:17] <pleia2> 12.04 or 11.10?
[18:20] <nhaines> 10.04.4.  :)
[18:21] <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!
[18:23] <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.
[21:14] <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)
[21:16] <pleia2> (although I don't remember now where I saw your post, and can only find old ones now ;))
[21:18] <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
[21:19] <greg-g> :) ditto
[21:27] <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
