| jyo | pleia2: I presume BART means my arrival and departure times are not too important. :) | 04:56 |
|---|---|---|
| pleia2 | jyo: hah, yeah, that is kinda goofy when you're local | 04:59 |
| pleia2 | I think I put 8AM monday and 18:00 Friday | 04:59 |
| philipballew | looks like a fun conversation in -women there pleia2 :) | 05:24 |
| pleia2 | always is | 05:24 |
| philipballew | haha, interesting. | 05:25 |
| pleia2 | philipballew: ok, over here | 05:34 |
| pleia2 | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/MeetingChecklist | 05:34 |
| philipballew | okay! | 05:34 |
| pleia2 | ^^ need to do that stuff | 05:34 |
| pleia2 | under "Shortly after the meeting" | 05:34 |
| * philipballew reads | 05:35 | |
| philipballew | that seems doable and something I can do pleia2 | 05:37 |
| pleia2 | :D | 05:37 |
| pleia2 | I was going to do it this evening, so if you want to do it for this past meeting please do, and let me know if you have questions | 05:37 |
| pleia2 | when I copy the logs in I usually pull them from the proper date on irclogs.ubuntu.com .txt file because the formatting is right | 05:37 |
| philipballew | alright. I was unable to be at the last meeting. is that okay? | 05:38 |
| pleia2 | so: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2012/03/12/%23ubuntu-us-ca.txt | 05:38 |
| pleia2 | yep, all logs are there :) | 05:38 |
| pleia2 | 2:08 to 2:25 is the meeting | 05:40 |
| pleia2 | short! | 05:40 |
| philipballew | alright. Ill have a go at it tonight! | 05:40 |
| philipballew | pleia2, all you need now is a few days after? | 05:41 |
| pleia2 | philipballew: I like to get it done within a few days of the meeting | 05:43 |
| philipballew | okay, but what stuff on the list has already been done? | 05:43 |
| pleia2 | nothing | 05:43 |
| pleia2 | oh | 05:43 |
| pleia2 | I misunderstood your question | 05:43 |
| pleia2 | you were talking about the "A Few Days After the Meeting" section | 05:44 |
| pleia2 | we haven't done meeting summaries in years :( | 05:44 |
| pleia2 | we keep them on the page because it would be nice, but we don't really have the volunteer power for it | 05:45 |
| philipballew | oh. Well I can attempt to do it if its only a few paragraphs. | 05:45 |
| pleia2 | right now we need "Shortly After the Meeting" done | 05:45 |
| philipballew | put libreoffice to work | 05:45 |
| philipballew | okay, ill do shortly after | 05:45 |
| philipballew | I saw someone with libreOffice on their macbook and said I like that your using LibreOffice. They then took it as in insult saying "well were not all rich and can afford Microsoft office" | 05:46 |
| pleia2 | hah, oops | 05:47 |
| philipballew | haha, what are you goona do | 05:47 |
| philipballew | pleia2, what does | 05:52 |
| philipballew | Post meeting log (without joins, parts, or quits) to meeting page. Add ||<<Include(CaliforniaTeam/Menu)>>|| to the top of the page. Remove the "Your Agenda Item Here" and "We hope to see you..." lines. Change the "Agenda" heading to "Original Agenda". | 05:52 |
| philipballew | mean? | 05:52 |
| philipballew | I guess I should ask, what meeting page are we talking about? | 05:52 |
| philipballew | the past weeks or next meeting? | 05:53 |
| pleia2 | the one yesterday | 05:54 |
| pleia2 | so the page you want to edit and add the log to is: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Meetings/12March11 | 05:55 |
| philipballew | pleia2, hows that look https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Meetings/12March11#preview | 05:57 |
| pleia2 | philipballew: perfect :) | 05:57 |
| philipballew | nice! | 05:57 |
| philipballew | do I have the power to run a /topic command pleia2 ? | 05:58 |
| philipballew | your in luck pleia2 , I had to learn how to change the topic in irc 2 days ago | 05:59 |
| pleia2 | go for it :) | 06:00 |
| === philipballew changed the topic of #ubuntu-us-ca to: Welcome to the Ubuntu California Local Community (LoCo) Team! | Website: http://ubuntu-california.org (has links to mailing list, forum, and more!) | Next Meeting: Sunday, March 25th, 7:00pm PDT | This channel is publicly logged at irclogs.ubuntu.com | We have an unlogged channel at #ubuntu-us-ca-offtopic | ||

| pleia2 | well, next after march 325th | 06:05 |
| pleia2 | 12April08 | 06:05 |
| philipballew | alright. I can do that. | 06:05 |
| pleia2 | preview is your friend :) | 06:07 |
| philipballew | the page looks really nice now! | 06:07 |
| pleia2 | remove the || after March25 | 06:07 |
| philipballew | looks better | 06:09 |
| pleia2 | great | 06:11 |
| philipballew | How do you create a wiki page for the april 8th meeting? Just load the link till it says create a new empty page I guess. | 06:11 |
| pleia2 | yep | 06:11 |
| pleia2 | they copy the content from March25 | 06:12 |
| pleia2 | and adjust the date | 06:12 |
| philipballew | awesome :) | 06:12 |
| philipballew | pleia2, when making a new event on the wiki do I add make a meeting minutes link even though there is no meeting minutes yet? | 06:21 |
| pleia2 | on the loco.ubuntu.com you mean? | 06:22 |
| pleia2 | or..? | 06:22 |
| philipballew | when making a new event like this one http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-california/359/detail/ What should I put for meeting logs? | 06:23 |
| pleia2 | ah, nothing yet | 06:23 |
| philipballew | okay. ill leave it blank | 06:24 |
| philipballew | all looks good!!! | 06:25 |
| pleia2 | I've been adding a single "Agenda item" saying the agenda is on the wiki, like this: http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-california/359/detail/ | 06:25 |
| pleia2 | philipballew: oops, had April 8th on the brain :) forums post should mention March 25th | 06:26 |
| pleia2 | (you can edit it) | 06:26 |
| philipballew | pleia2, my bad | 06:26 |

| philipballew | *if its | 06:28 |

| pleia2 | that would be wonderful | 06:29 |
| philipballew | man im out of it | 06:29 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 06:29 |
| * pleia2 searches for the numlock key | 06:30 | |
| pleia2 | hrm | 06:30 |
| philipballew | worked 6 hours today and 3 hours of classes. all day, everyday | 06:30 |
| pleia2 | heh, fun | 06:30 |
| philipballew | Life is overrated. I should just crawl under a blanket and sleep all day :) | 06:31 |
| pleia2 | lol | 06:31 |
| pleia2 | ah, there it is | 06:32 |
| pleia2 | I do that sometimes, but usually it means I'm sick ;) | 06:32 |
| pleia2 | my laptop can play flash videos, fancy! | 06:36 |

| pleia2 | any unity users around? using 12.04 and even when I maximize windows the launcher stays open, do I need to install CCSM still to adjust this behavior? | 22:05 |
| pleia2 | (I think it's actually misbehaving at the moment, by default it should go away I think) | 22:06 |
| broder | no, that's the new default behavior | 22:06 |
| pleia2 | oh, good to know | 22:06 |
| broder | you have some ability to adjust it through ccsm, but i don't think you can bring back the oneiric behavior | 22:07 |
| broder | (i think it either always shows, or always autohides - there's no autohide only if there's a window that wants that space) | 22:07 |
| pleia2 | always autohide would be grand | 22:07 |
| philipballew_ | its a bug afaik pleia2. On my system as well. | 22:07 |
| pleia2 | but ccsm is the proper way to adjust? | 22:08 |
| broder | uh...it is *a* way to adjust :) | 22:08 |
| broder | i don't know how you're supposed to adjust it | 22:08 |
| pleia2 | well I didn't know if there was some magic settings menu by default I should use :) | 22:08 |
| * pleia2 holds down super key and cheers | 22:08 | |
| * broder should upgrade to precise | 22:08 | |
| pleia2 | so brilliant | 22:08 |
| pleia2 | gives you shortcuts! | 22:08 |
| philipballew_ | its the best! | 22:09 |
| broder | the numeric shortcuts? it's always done that | 22:09 |
| broder | it's the single best thing about unity | 22:09 |
| pleia2 | broder: it brings up a window with tons of shortcuts details | 22:09 |
| philipballew_ | ccsm gets it done, but many people dont like it. | 22:09 |
| broder | ooh, cool. i'll try to upgrade today or tomorrow | 22:09 |
| pleia2 | when I booted up, just a quick click on super opened the dash, but it doesn't anymore | 22:10 |
| broder | i guess i can go ahead and upgrade my work desktop since i'm not using it right now | 22:11 |
| pleia2 | autohide++ | 22:28 |
| philipballew_ | Does anyone know where I would place a script to run when I login? | 22:30 |
| bkerensa | wherever you want? | 22:33 |
| bkerensa | :D | 22:33 |
| broder | Super -> Startup Applications | 22:33 |
| dragon | Start Menu > Program Files > Startup | 22:38 |
| dragon | or, Start Menu > Program Files > All Users > Startup | 22:38 |
| dragon | something like that. :P | 22:38 |
| philipballew_ | bkerensa, well Id need to script to run without me doing anything | 22:52 |
| philipballew_ | or just place the script somewhere and point to it somehow | 22:53 |
| pleia2 | I have a bin/ directory in my home | 22:53 |
| pleia2 | but it doesn't matter where you put it really | 22:54 |
| philipballew_ | pleia2, I need to point to it in some system file correct though? | 22:57 |
| philipballew_ | or just placing a /bin would work as well | 22:57 |
| pleia2 | philipballew_: system file? when you run it you need to give the full path | 22:57 |
| akk | It's safest to give the full path when you're running it from a script. | 22:58 |
| pleia2 | when you go to "Add" something in the "Startup Application Preferences" one of the fields is Command: | 22:58 |
| philipballew_ | pleia2, I know that. Its a script to automatically connect to a server somewhere. I was wanting it to run each time I login | 22:58 |
| philipballew_ | Its headless | 22:58 |
| pleia2 | oh | 22:59 |
| pleia2 | I thought this was a desktop | 22:59 |
| philipballew_ | no, sorry :) | 22:59 |
| akk | Wait, what's headless? The machine you're logging into? | 22:59 |
| philipballew_ | no. the machine im placing the script on. Both machines are technically though | 23:00 |
| akk | They're different? You want to log in to machine A and have that cause a script to run on machine B? | 23:01 |
| philipballew_ | I want to login to headless desktop (a) and have a script to run that telnets into a server | 23:01 |
| philipballew_ | as soon as i login | 23:02 |
| akk | But the script will be running on A, telnetting into B, right? | 23:02 |
| philipballew_ | yes akk :) | 23:02 |
| akk | In that case you can put it in .profile on A (bash uses .profile, right?) | 23:02 |
| philipballew_ | I think so, Its technically not a bash script. Its expect script. Is that bad? | 23:03 |
| akk | From your .profile or .bash_profile you can run a script that's in any language. | 23:03 |
| philipballew_ | would I need to include #!/usr/bin/expect -f though? | 23:04 |
| akk | The .profile would have a command just like whatever you'd use to run it from the command line, e.g. myscript or /home/myname/bin/myscript or whatever. | 23:04 |
| philipballew_ | ah. I see | 23:04 |
| philipballew_ | and place the script in anyplace I want | 23:05 |
| akk | Yes, either that or put a line in .profile like: expect /home/myname/bin/myscript (if that's how you'd run an expect script, I'm not actually sure). | 23:05 |
| akk | Right, the script can go anywhere, as long as bash knows how to find it when it reaches that line in .profile. | 23:05 |
| pleia2 | I'd probably use .bashrc instead (that's where I put all custom stuff, it runs at the beginning of .profile by default) | 23:06 |
| pleia2 | but I don't actually know why both .profile and bashrc exist | 23:07 |
| * pleia2 asks the internet | 23:07 | |
| philipballew_ | well I can run the script via ./path/to/script from bash. I can just add that line to .bashrc. | 23:07 |
| philipballew_ | Would the script run though before network connections are made? | 23:07 |
| akk | I wouldn't use .bashrc -- that runs when you run a subshell as well as when you log in. | 23:14 |
| akk | So even when you run scripts and such, things in .bashrc might run. | 23:14 |
| pleia2 | yeah, I don't know what an Ubuntu server looks like, but on the desktop the first thing .profile does is source in .bashrc | 23:16 |
| pleia2 | which was throwing me :) | 23:16 |
| akk | If you log in to your desktop and run 3 terminal windows, .bashrc gets run three times. | 23:16 |
| pleia2 | .profile is interactive, .bashrc is not | 23:16 |
| akk | .profile might get run three times if you specify login-shell in your terminal client (not sure if gnome-terminal allows that) | 23:17 |
| akk | Right, profile is intended for interactive login shells. | 23:17 |
| pleia2 | I learned something new today :) | 23:18 |
| pleia2 | (well, aside from this unity stuff) | 23:18 |
| philipballew_ | so I should place it in profile? | 23:18 |
| pleia2 | philipballew_: I wouldn't use ./path/to/file | 23:18 |
| pleia2 | if it's a bash script I'd use: bash /path/too/file | 23:19 |
| akk | or expect /path/to/file since it's an expect script | 23:19 |
| pleia2 | the ./ syntax for running things doesn't tend to work in scripts (I don't know about profile specifically, but I tend to go on the side of caution) | 23:19 |
| akk | or just put the #!/usr/bin/expect at the beginning | 23:19 |
| philipballew_ | hum. I did get it working by placing it in the bashrc with a ./ | 23:19 |
| philipballew_ | but maybe its a bad idea to leave it there | 23:20 |
| akk | ./ might work, but you'd need to be sure what directory bash is in when you hit that line | 23:20 |
| pleia2 | akk was right, you want .profile rather than .bashrc | 23:20 |
| akk | which is probably ~ but I'm not sure I'd want to count on it. | 23:20 |
| akk | Much better to specify ~/ or $HOME/ or /home/yourname/ if that's what you want | 23:21 |
| philipballew_ | I can move it if I need, just because it works now, doesnt mean it will? The only point if this thing is to connect to a server and have a shell open | 23:21 |
