| * BigRedS wonders if dogmatic69 has ever seen a mac ;) | 00:00 | |
| dogmatic69 | I dont know if its my SSD, but its lightning quick | 00:00 |
| BigRedS | I used one last weekend. It wasn't a lot like Unity :) | 00:00 |
| dogmatic69 | its close enough, closer than 10.10 | 00:00 |
| dogmatic69 | anyone see the electron microscope images on reddit? | 00:04 |
| dogmatic69 | pretty cool http://egotvonline.com/2012/03/13/25-everyday-objects-under-an-electron-microscope/ | 00:05 |
| dogmatic69 | the maggot is NSFL | 00:05 |
| penguin42 | dogmatic69: Yeh saw those - been a bit heavily coloured for my liking, but still neat - I like micrographs | 00:05 |
| dogmatic69 | ye, the colouring is a bit off. almost CG like | 00:06 |
| dogmatic69 | figured out with screen, you can actually ctrl+a [ then use the scroll wheel, no need for page up/donw | 00:12 |
| dogmatic69 | *down | 00:12 |
| BigRedS | dogmatic69: oh! | 00:12 |
| BigRedS | neat | 00:13 |
| BigRedS | ta! | 00:13 |
| dogmatic69 | ye | 00:13 |
| dogmatic69 | its just like scrolling in man etc | 00:13 |
| BigRedS | ah yeah | 00:13 |
| dogmatic69 | git diff those type of scrolling | 00:13 |
| dogmatic69 | I would like to have scrolling by default and the ctrl+a [ to do the command scroll, that would be nice | 00:14 |

| SuperEngineer | o/ | 08:32 |
| daubers | morning | 08:32 |
| SuperEngineer | Have just sent a report of the following to the mailing list - damn rumour mongers are at it already! | 08:33 |
| SuperEngineer | http://www.linuxtoday.com/news_story.php3?ltsn=2012-04-09-002-41-SC-UB | 08:33 |
| daubers | A page that never connects? | 08:35 |
| SuperEngineer | daubers, hmmm -trying it now | 08:37 |
| SuperEngineer | yup - it does now seem to having trouble - here's the page the "headline" story links to http://www.linuxbsdos.com/2012/04/04/should-you-be-worried-about-ubuntu-desktops-privacy-settings/ | 08:38 |
| daubers | Is this the zeitgeist privacy settings thing? | 08:38 |
| daubers | urgh, more FUD nothing to see here, move along | 08:40 |
| SuperEngineer | Doesn't mention it specifically - just the Privacy settings option but...."the part that needs to be explained. Is the collected “anonymous information” limited to those related to crashed programs or does the system send all recorded activity from the other tabs to Canonical’s servers?" | 08:41 |
| daubers | Sipl | 08:42 |
| daubers | simple answer.... grab the source? | 08:42 |
| daubers | SuperEngineer: It'll just be crash reports. The other tabs relate to zeitgeist | 08:43 |
| SuperEngineer | daubers, it's the damn rumour mongering that's getting me irked ;) | 08:44 |
| gord | anything that gets sent in a crash report to lp gets made private fwiw. only project maintainers and a few highly privileged users can see it. they check and make sure there is no private information before making the bug public | 08:44 |
| daubers | SuperEngineer: Then don't help them by passing it around | 08:44 |
| * SuperEngineer giggles & accepts... fair comment! | 08:45 | |
| daubers | SuperEngineer: You could just google around http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/Ubuntu-12-04-to-ship-with-enhanced-privacy-controls-1468182.html | 08:45 |
| daubers | http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/02/privacy-controls-minor-ui-tweaks-land-in-ubuntu-12-04/ | 08:45 |
| daubers | SuperEngineer: Even the EFF liked it.... | 08:46 |
| SuperEngineer | yeh but they're Electronic - I'm super human | 08:47 |
| mattt | any python experts here? :P | 08:58 |
| daubers | define: expert? | 08:59 |
| mattt | need a hand w/ optparse (yes, i'm using an older version of python) :) | 09:00 |
| daubers | pass | 09:00 |
| SuperEngineer | daubers, expert: "x" is an unknown quantity, "spurt" is simply a drip under pressure | 09:01 |
| mattt | daubers: ah well, thanks anyway :) | 09:03 |

| BigRedS | I've a machine with an initrd that doesn't have ext in it somehow. Should I be able to boot up a LiveCD, mkinitrd, then copy that onto the disk and boot with that? | 13:32 |
| BigRedS | I know initrds are way more fragile than they should be, but I'm hoping that if I get the kernel version right there's not a lot else to be wrong? | 13:33 |
| jacobw | what about kernel options, like ext? | 13:49 |
| jacobw | i think if its the same kernel, the initrd will be the same | 13:51 |
| jacobw | how did the machine come to have an initrd without ext?! | 13:51 |

| === webpigeon is now known as Guest241 | ||
| cocoa117 | currymonster, nothing can replace it if you still want to buy music from iTunes, just do RemoteApp with it, so you keep everything | 16:53 |
| cocoa117 | even play the music out of it | 16:53 |
| Myrtti | that's interesting, the latest RC vanilla kernel labeled on the website as 64-bit shows up as 32-bit in package management | 17:02 |
| czajkowski | aloha | 17:24 |
| currymonster | cocoa117: thanks, it's just the music sync feature im after | 17:25 |
| currymonster | remote app? | 17:26 |
| cocoa117 | currymonster, if it's the sync you are after then that's fine. iTunes wasn't great on them | 17:31 |
| currymonster | thanks again | 17:38 |
| bigcalm | Can anybody think of a web interface for setting up email address forwarding? My father is part of a club that has a domain and wants to set up address that forward for council roles. | 17:48 |
| bigcalm | I can set it up at a domain registrar level, but I'd rather I wasn't a dependency | 17:48 |
| penguin42 | what mail system are you running? | 17:49 |
| bigcalm | None | 17:49 |
| bigcalm | I may have to set up the MX, that's ok | 17:50 |
| bigcalm | That's an idea. Become the MX and write an interface to manage forwarding | 17:52 |
| penguin42 | yeh, or some ISPs have their own domain setup like that | 17:52 |
| bigcalm | If there's a simple system already out there, all the better | 17:52 |

| ali1234 | what you say "it will be the same" | 20:24 |
| ali1234 | *when you say | 20:24 |
| ali1234 | ... you actually mean "it is supposed to be the same" | 20:24 |
| ali1234 | but in reality there is every chance that an upgrade will break the system basically until 12.04.1 comes out | 20:25 |

| ali1234 | heh, kernel developers | 22:32 |
| gordonjcp | what's the current favourite for running virtual machines in Ubuntu? | 22:32 |
| ali1234 | it depends you want to run as guest | 22:33 |
| ali1234 | +what | 22:33 |
| gordonjcp | a variety of different things | 22:33 |
| ali1234 | virtuabox is best all rounder | 22:33 |
| gordonjcp | hm, I had a look at that | 22:33 |
| gordonjcp | I don't fancy waiting for all 2TB of the Qt libraries to download | 22:34 |
| gordonjcp | and it looks too confusing and difficult | 22:34 |
| popey | its probably the most straightforward, best documented, most well supported | 22:35 |
| gordonjcp | popey: but it seems to require a GUI | 22:35 |
| popey | "not having a GUI" wasn't in your original list of requirements | 22:35 |
| gordonjcp | well, that was pretty much a given | 22:35 |
| popey | http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch07.html | 22:36 |
| gordonjcp | the less GUI-based crap I have to deal with the better | 22:36 |
| popey | not really | 22:36 |
| popey | heh, ok | 22:36 |
| popey | you can run it headless | 22:36 |
| popey | anyway, bed | 22:36 |
| popey | nn | 22:36 |
| gordonjcp | since, y'know, I can't actually see them | 22:36 |
| ali1234 | if you don't already have Qt installed you're an idiot | 22:37 |
| ali1234 | i mean what are you using instead for GUI development? | 22:37 |
| ali1234 | Tkinter? lol | 22:37 |
| gordonjcp | I avoid GUIs because they don't make sense to me | 22:37 |
| ali1234 | gtk? LOOOOOOOOOOOL | 22:37 |
| gordonjcp | ali1234: if you're not going to be helpful, shut up | 22:37 |
| ali1234 | oh, well you won't want virtualbox then | 22:37 |
| ali1234 | because all of the power of virtualbox is that it is really easy to set up using the GUI | 22:38 |
| ali1234 | if you want something totally command line driven, you should try kvm instead | 22:38 |
| ali1234 | it's much harder to use and it can't really do anything that virtualbox can't do, but hey, at least nobody else will be able to understand anything you make with it | 22:38 |
| gordonjcp | ghod Qt is a mess | 22:40 |
| ali1234 | try qemu-kvm, it has no gui at all except for the guest display window | 22:47 |
| ali1234 | maybe you can do what you need the VBoxHeadless | 22:48 |
| ali1234 | i think that can only start and stop vms though, mainly | 22:48 |
| ali1234 | you could write the machine configuration by hand | 22:49 |
| ali1234 | but it uses XML and i'm guessing you hate that too | 22:49 |
