| dwatkins | are you on 12.04, dogmatic69? | 00:01 |
| dogmatic69 | ye | 00:01 |
| dwatkins | I've observed issues with suspend on earlier Ubuntu versions which manifest as the screen just getting locked. Not seen a logout happen before. | 00:02 |
| dogmatic69 | My pc died and figured it was a good time to make the move. When I saw the HUD thing I was sold | 00:02 |
| dogmatic69 | ye, it is just like I clicked logout or restart. never suspend | 00:03 |
| dogmatic69 | I am glad for SSD and fast boots. hate waiting for startup | 00:03 |
| dwatkins | yeah, even my hybrid disk seems a lot faster than a HDD | 00:05 |

| Myrtti | morning seems to have an exciting start, I've just filed a bug for a kernel oops in precise and my nephew broke a mirror in his room. | 09:17 |
| Myrtti | let's see if I could manage to acquire a third degree burn on making tea for myself, and cut myself on the head when tripping on a carpet and hitting my head on a table edge | 09:18 |
| Myrtti | lets, even. | 09:18 |
| brobostigon | good morning everyone. | 09:29 |
| StevenR | *sigh* firefox ate half my open tabs due to repeated crashyness :( | 09:41 |
| dwatkins | Myrtti: time to do backups? ;) | 09:45 |
| Myrtti | dwatkins: am at my sisters now and don't have my backup disk with me :-| | 09:45 |
| dwatkins | Myrtti: bah, I guess you can't just rsync then. | 09:47 |
| Myrtti | I suppose it's time to set up dejadup to ubuntuone for immediate relief | 09:48 |

| ed3245678 | hi | 10:13 |
| ed3245678 | anyone uses 3 mobile broadband here? | 10:13 |
| ed3245678 | with linux? | 10:14 |
| brobostigon | i sometimes tether my htc dream, which i have with three atm, to my netbook, yes. | 10:15 |
| ed3245678 | are u having a problem with porn sites blocked on three? | 10:16 |
| ed3245678 | actually I dont really want to browse port but the proxy sites are blocked too | 10:16 |
| brobostigon | yes, but it isnt a problem, it makes sense, as they have no idea, who can get hold of it, and what material they could look at. | 10:16 |
| BigRedS | with T-Mobile I just had to phone them and ask them to remove the block and they did | 10:17 |
| BigRedS | that's on a contract, so they know my age | 10:17 |
| dwatkins | I noticed various sites are blocked from three's tethering or directly from my phone | 10:17 |
| ed3245678 | the thing is my laptop is dual boot, I also have xp, with xp I can browse anything, there is no restrictions of any kind | 10:17 |
| BigRedS | apparently it's on by default just to stop people stumbling across it | 10:17 |
| BigRedS | not, uh, that I was trying to google goat porn | 10:17 |
| ed3245678 | this actually has started maybe a week ago, the blocking I mean, though xp still works fine (same dongle and same sim card) | 10:18 |
| ed3245678 | anyone know why? and how to fix it? | 10:19 |
| BigRedS | I'd guess 3 are the best people to ask | 10:19 |
| brobostigon | ring three, and ask them to remove said block, as suggested. | 10:19 |
| ed3245678 | but there is no block when I try to browse using win xp | 10:20 |
| ed3245678 | ? | 10:20 |
| BigRedS | you seem oddly sure that somebody here will speak up and explain how 3's content filter works... | 10:21 |
| ed3245678 | I though people will know how to fool it | 10:21 |
| brobostigon | an ssh tunnel ? | 10:22 |
| MartijnVdS | move to the Netherlands, we have net neutrality ;) | 10:22 |
| BigRedS | Oh, yeah, ssh tunnel's normally the way round that | 10:22 |
| ed3245678 | Ok I am a noob, whats ssh tunnel? | 10:22 |
| brobostigon | MartijnVdS: cool :) | 10:22 |
| BigRedS | MartijnVdS: I just tried to come up with a "yeah, but you also have..." and was stumped.... | 10:23 |

| BigRedS | there should be a way to make Vim show the word 'return' in 40-ft tall neon lettering | 10:45 |
| MartijnVdS | BigRedS: gvim probably can | 10:54 |

| bigcalm | dogmatic69: I suspended for you | 22:22 |
| dogmatic69 | bigcalm: and, it worked? | 22:22 |
| dogmatic69 | BigRedS: that did not happen 2 days ago | 22:22 |
| bigcalm | Yes, read up :) | 22:22 |
| dogmatic69 | ah | 22:23 |
| dogmatic69 | must be my tiny swap | 22:23 |
| bigcalm | I accepted defaults when installing | 22:24 |
| dogmatic69 | I only have 64gig SSD so did not want to make the recommended 2x ram swap | 22:24 |
| bigcalm | I have a 120gb ssd and it works fine | 22:25 |
| bigcalm | Even on my work station with has a 60gb ssd, I chose the defaults | 22:25 |
| BigRedS | Does the installer default to swap = 2xRAM? | 22:52 |
| bigcalm | Nope | 22:53 |
| bigcalm | My swap == RAM | 22:53 |
| penguin42 | 2xRAM is very very old Unix folklore advice | 22:53 |
| BigRedS | Oh, good. That'd have made me unhappy. | 22:53 |
| BigRedS | penguin42: yeah, it's also dumb, which is why I was hoping it wasn't what the installer did | 22:54 |
| BigRedS | dumb in the 'not smart' sense of the term, not as in harmful | 22:54 |
| penguin42 | BigRedS: It kind of made sense back in SunOS days when apparently at one stage to allocate memory it actually required a corresponding disc page, and when memories were in the order of 8MB | 22:55 |

| dogmatic69 | penguin42: when I was running 10.10 the default installed with 24gigs of swap | 23:39 |
| penguin42 | dogmatic69: Thing is it's surprisingly hard to come up with a generic good rule of thumb; for something with a small amount of RAM, 2xRAM isn't a bad guess - but once you get to many GB of RAM it gets silly | 23:41 |
| dogmatic69 | ye | 23:41 |
| BigRedS | dogmatic69: what!? How much ram did you havE? | 23:41 |
| * penguin42 guesses 12 ? | 23:41 | |
| BigRedS | I thought we noted that the installer was less drunk than that? | 23:41 |
| dogmatic69 | I think because I has / as 1TB + masses of ram, installer figured SWAP ALL THE THINGS | 23:41 |
| BigRedS | yeah, but more swap is not a *good* thing | 23:42 |
| dogmatic69 | BigRedS: same system as now, just new hdd. 8 gigs | 23:42 |
| BigRedS | enough to comfortably hibernate into | 23:42 |
| dogmatic69 | ye, that is why I told it no, and made it 4gigs this time. I think 10 would be right | 23:42 |
| dogmatic69 | so it can hibernate the entire 8gigs plus some breathing room | 23:43 |
| BigRedS | yeah, but another 16GB of breathing room? | 23:43 |
| dogmatic69 | I know. that was 10.10 installed around the day it came out | 23:44 |
| dogmatic69 | not beta, the actual 10.10 | 23:44 |
| dogmatic69 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/921054/ | 23:45 |
| dogmatic69 | oooh. that is nice | 23:45 |
| penguin42 | once you're more than 1GB into swap you're machine is probably going to be grinding like hell anyway - unless it's just a gentle slow leak | 23:45 |
| dogmatic69 | did not like the old pastebinit | 23:45 |
| dogmatic69 | penguin42: I know that. but I cant hibernate now with 4gigs of swap. | 23:45 |
| penguin42 | dogmatic69: Can you hibernate with a swapfile? | 23:46 |
| dogmatic69 | With 8gigs of ram, if you are swapping you are doing something wrong | 23:46 |
| dogmatic69 | penguin42: I have read hibernate puts the contents of ram into swap | 23:46 |
| dogmatic69 | well tries. | 23:46 |
| penguin42 | dogmatic69: I occasionally hit swap on my 8GB machine; only if I'm doing something very heavy; like big 3d stuff | 23:47 |
| BigRedS | I get the feeling we're all going round in circles emphatically agreeing with each other | 23:47 |
| penguin42 | dogmatic69: But swapfiles should let you do that? | 23:47 |
| dogmatic69 | BigRedS: same :D | 23:47 |
