[00:32] <Sadin> yay http://www.archlinux.org/news/arch-linux-turns-10/
[01:23] <SamuraiAlba> good bacon
[01:23] <SamuraiAlba> good night!
[01:57] <InHisName> cythes: maybe its time to pick place in Pottstown and just walk there and back.
[03:25] <cythes> InHisName: Not a bad idea.
[03:27] <InHisName> At least we have one kick off party in our area.
[03:28] <cythes> InHisName: you live local?
[03:30] <InHisName> I do, but I have 2 foster kids < 5 yrs.  I have a once a month break from kids on 3r sat for PACS mtg.
[03:34] <cythes> Hmm so we could plan a place that is child friendly... Like Friendly's in pottstown
[03:37] <InHisName> Unfortunately if my attention leaves one for 0.5 sec, their behaviour deteriorates rapidly.
[03:39] <cythes> Damn well I could post it up on the forums and see if there are any takers.
[03:39] <InHisName> Ever try a conversation in bird house at zoo with all the screeching birds ?  Kinder to your ears if they don't come.
[03:39] <InHisName> Sure thing!
[03:41] <InHisName> There's at least one more lives there, plus several nearby.  You could easily go over 3-5, and that'd be a decent crowd.
[03:45] <passstab> release party?
[03:45] <cythes> Yeah passstab I was thinking of one... since I have not been to one in forever / would be cool to start one lol
[03:46] <passstab> sounds fun
[03:46] <cythes> yeah trying to get an idea of how many people would come.
[03:46] <passstab> what date?
[03:47]  * passstab dosn't actually use ubu ;)
[03:48] <passstab> meebe you could do it in a park?
[03:49] <cythes> passstab: General linux party with a focus on ubuntu lol
[03:49]  * passstab needs to go to sleep in order not to be yelled at
[03:49] <passstab> yes i know
[03:49] <passstab> my point was i don't know the date
[03:50] <InHisName> If you want CDs to hand out, they may not be 'here' until early May or so.
[03:51] <passstab> gnight
[05:08] <cythes> Well if I do do a party... I think Limrick Lanes would be something fun :)
[05:09]  * cythes goes to sleep / to think about the idea
[09:45] <JonathanD> Morning.
[09:51] <rmg51> morning JonathanD
[09:57] <JonathanD> Hey
[10:25] <rmg51> o/
[14:04] <ChinnoDog> waltman: omg. I just thought of an extremely practical use for using that LaTeX editor you pointed me to
[14:04] <ChinnoDog> I have a Sharepoint wiki at work. Formatting in Sharepoint sucks like you would not believe is possible. I could write my wiki pages in LaTeX and then export to HTML
[14:05] <JonathanD> heh :)
[14:05] <ChinnoDog> I mean, it defeats the point of the wiki, but I have no choice in the matter
[14:06] <JonathanD> .935
[14:06] <ChinnoDog> What is that?
[14:06] <JonathanD> a window number where I put a . in front instead of a /
[14:07] <ChinnoDog> You have 935 windows?
[14:07] <JonathanD> 959, actually.
[14:08] <JonathanD> I should probably close a few, eh? :)
[14:09] <ChinnoDog> probably
[14:23] <waltman> ChinnoDog: then you'll have 2 problems :)
[14:23] <waltman> maybe I didn't make it clear that I wrote that myself in about 2 minutes :)
[14:24] <waltman> oh, you're talking about Lyx, not my blog post yesterday!
[14:24] <waltman> does sharepoint use markdown? if so, there are any number of gui markdown editors.
[14:28] <ChinnoDog> waltman: no, it does not use markdown. It is wysiwyg. Problem is, what I see is garbage.
[14:29] <adom> JonathanD: 959 windows in what? in irssi? in your window manager? this has peaked my interest.
[14:29] <JonathanD> adom: irssi.
[14:29] <adom> that's extremely excessive
[14:30] <adom> what are all the windows for?
[14:30] <JonathanD> Mostly people who PM me, and I never close.
[14:30] <adom> ahhh
[14:30] <JonathanD> Every now and then I'll go close a few hundred.
[14:30] <JonathanD> and about 160 actual channels.
[14:30] <JonathanD> I haven't counted in a while.
[14:30] <adom> why do people PM you so often? and why so many channels open? bot stuff?
[14:30]  * JonathanD is network staff.
[14:31] <adom> for freenode?
[14:31] <JonathanD> Yes.
[14:31] <adom> oh. cool.
[14:31] <adom> so, you could probably see my ip even though i have a mask
[14:31] <adom> (please don't tell the hackers)
[14:31] <JonathanD> I wouldn't tell a soul :)
[14:32]  * adom hugs JonathanD.
[14:32] <JonathanD> We're very particular about what we will and won't disclose to people.
[14:32] <adom> whats it like working for freenode? do you get paid or is it a volunteer thing?
[14:32] <waltman> ChinnoDog: this is what I thought you were talking about -- http://www.mawode.com/blog/blog/2012/03/21/finding-duplicate-latex-labels/
[14:32] <JonathanD> It's volunteer, adom.
[14:33] <adom> what a nice guy
[14:33] <JonathanD> It mostly just means helping folks recover their password or figure out how to use nickserv.
[14:33] <JonathanD> Although I do some "realworld" freenode stuff in and around philadelphia.
[14:33] <JonathanD> geeknics, fosscon, etc.
[14:33] <adom> sweet
[14:33] <JonathanD> I'm the only one in this timezone now that jtrucks moved. :)
[14:34] <adom> So, do you like, know ChanServ IRL? He seems unfriendly. XD
[14:34] <JonathanD> He steals cookies. I don't trust him at all.
[14:35] <phatphoton> Hey there, is there anyone that could help or direct me to help with a hci problem?
[14:35] <ChinnoDog> waltman: do you write in raw LaTeX or do you use an editor?
[14:36] <adom> phatphoton: You could try asking your question and if we can help we'll try. However this is a small channel just fyi, you mihgt have more luck in a bigger channel like #ubuntu or ##linux.
[14:36] <phatphoton> any help is appreciated, but here it goes
[14:38] <phatphoton> I have a bluetooth mouse that used to work with 11.10 and now fails to pair every time. I looked at the hcitdump and it looks like it connects, discovers, authorizes, then disconnects (host command). No idea how to go forward with this.
[14:38] <phatphoton> hcidump**
[14:38] <waltman> ChinnoDog: Well, I use emacs, but it's raw LaTeX
[14:39] <phatphoton> I've also tried both the default manager and the blueman manager
[14:40] <adom> phatphoton: what do you mean "used to work with 11.10"? that's the current newest distro if im not mistaken
[14:42] <adom> yeah, 12.04 comes out next month
[14:43] <adom> well, the beta is out
[14:46] <phatphoton> adom: I've reinstalled a few times in the last month trying to find the most stable system so when I started I had just upgraded to 11.10 and the mouse was working, then I tried Mint 12, 11.10 x64 then back to i386
[14:47] <phatphoton> adom: fresh installs each time
[14:47] <adom> so ubuntu 11.10 the mouse works fine, but with mint12 it doesnt. correct?
[14:48] <phatphoton> I forget if it worked under Mint, It wasnt there long enough to test, but it used to work on 11.10 i386, and now that I reinstalled, it doesnt work
[14:49] <phatphoton> the last time I tried using it, I had to delete some "name - hexaddress" line from some deep file but I cant find the forum post i found that in the first time
[14:50] <adom> ok. im not much help here. but if i had to guess id say that you probably installed  or edited something on the previous 11.10 installation that you havent done on the new 11.10 installation.
[14:50] <adom> a setting, file, or package that you had but you dont now
[14:50] <phatphoton> probably. Do yo know of a channel for the bluez folks or general bluetooth ubuntu?
[14:51] <adom> i doubt one exists, but you can always try "/list" or "/join #bluetooth" or something similar
[14:51] <adom> dont forget to ask in #ubuntu and ##linux
[14:51] <adom> those are general help channels and full of people
[14:51] <adom> just be patient, answers dont get answered quickly
[14:52] <adom> don't *always* get answered quickly
[14:52] <phatphoton> hmm, alright, i'll try those. And I have plenty of laundry to get to so delay isnt the end of it :P
[14:52] <phatphoton> adom: thanks for your help!
[14:52] <adom> and of course, keep googling
[14:52] <adom> no problem good luck
[14:52] <phatphoton> the all mighty google, lulz
[14:52] <phatphoton> thanks all!
[14:59] <jedijf> wire stw
[14:59] <jedijf> ftw
[15:03] <jedijf> @later tell phatphoton, this post? http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=11334168&postcount=1
[15:03] <jedijf> ChinnoDog: start a bot
[15:11] <adom> in case anyones keeping track, my TestDisk analysis has been running for 7days, and its at 69%.
[15:12] <adom> on a 1TB drive
[15:18] <adom> once it finishes in a few days, im creating a new server box at home. ive also decided to finally take the plunge and rid myself of all my extra systems lying around
[15:19] <adom> including my main (best) gaming rig. all in hopes of making enough spare cash to start setting up a newer, better gaming rig that lets me do WoW raids at higher than 2FPS
[15:20] <adom> i.e. 4 - 6 mediocre systems + 1 half decent gaming system = 1 pretty nice gaming system
[15:20] <adom> (hopefully)
[15:21] <adom> and while im doing all the work, I'm going to reinstall ubuntu server on my home server
[15:21] <passstab> did you decide on the release party?
[15:22] <adom> talking to me?
[15:28] <passstab> i was talking to anyone who was listening :P
[15:44] <adom> anyone else unsure about the new HUD stuff in 12.04? http://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/248665/ubuntu_linuxs_new_hud_interface_will_do_away_with_menus.html
[15:46] <passstab> meh
[15:46] <passstab> i use synapse
[15:47] <passstab> that is the part of unity i hate the least

[17:35] <cythes> pleia2,  What do you use to configure your themes in XFCE or do you need to manually place them in the folders?
[17:48] <pleia2> cythes: i use default themes, i thiml the FAQ on xubuntu.org covers it though
[17:49] <cythes> I done figured it out :) -- It was not that hard
