[07:49] <AlanBell> good question
[08:30] <pvagner> Hello,
[08:30] <pvagner> Please is there a way to run unity 2d with ubuntu precise daily live cd? or is that only possible after installing? I can see by default live cd starts with unity.
[08:30] <pvagner> to be precise echo $DESKTOP_SESSION prints ubuntu
[08:40] <AlanBell> I know it starts unity2d if you don't have the graphics hardware and drivers to do 3d
[08:52] <pvagner> AlanBell: I have acer ao150 notebook. It has verry simple built-in intel graphic card. I don't think it's too powerfull but I can't navigate unity launcher and dash. F10 menus are accessible. compiz is running and $DESKOP_SESSIN variable shows the word ubuntu. So please how do I make the most of it?
[08:59] <AlanBell> pvagner: probably not the best way, however I just ran metacity --replace &; unity-2d-shell &; unity-2d-panel &
[09:01] <pvagner> AlanBell: so I should try running this in order to switch from unity 3d to unity 2d?
[09:02] <pvagner> AlanBell: will I need to relogin?
[09:03] <AlanBell> no, that kind of rips down the 3d stuff and runs the 2d stuff in the session you are in
[09:03] <AlanBell> I am not sure if you can log out of the live CD
[09:04]  * AlanBell tries on a live session
[09:07] <pvagner> on a positive note comparing this precise live cd with for example gnome based ubuntu 2010.10 by exploring the menus, loading some simple random pages in firefox initially I feel the whole system responsiveness is much snappier.
[09:08] <pvagner> I think my laptop is a kind of edge case when it comes to performance, I've only 1 GB of ram
[09:12] <AlanBell> yeah, generally precise seems faster and smoother, just they broke a load of the accessibility around the time of the beta
[09:15] <AlanBell> logging out of a live USB from a few weeks ago does not appear to do anything useful
[22:34] <Fudge> hi
[22:35] <jalcine> Hello o/
[22:36] <Fudge> AlanBell you can restart ightdm but I think you need to restart for the common unity-2d changes to take effect
[22:36] <Fudge> restart lightdm sorry
[22:36] <Fudge> how you doing jalcine
[22:36] <jalcine> I'm well, just carried up some laundry from the lobby for my mom.
[22:37] <jalcine> How about you?
[22:37] <Fudge> um ok
[22:37] <Fudge> yep I am fine
[22:42] <Fudge> whats new AlanBell mate
[22:54] <jalcine> Hm, I need a bit of advice here.
[22:55] <jalcine> Regarding PocketSphinx and acoustic models.
[22:55] <jalcine> Should I have any newly adapted model generated by the user stored within their home directory or ask for user permission to overwrite the one used globally?
[22:56] <jalcine> There's a daemon that allows other applications to use SpeechControl via D-Bus but they'd use the acoustic model that the user specify.
[22:56]  * jalcine scratches his tiny chin hairs.
[23:15] <Fudge> over my head
[23:25] <jalcine> Lol :)
