mhall119hey bluebomber 00:04
bluebomberHey, mhall119! I'm just removing all instances of "independent" from my /etc/apt/sources.list, because I haven't been able to install any updates the last 13 days because of this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/94729600:05
bluebomberX-D00:05
bluebomberWhat's new?00:05
mhall119bluebomber: that's an interesting one, I haven't seen it on my system...00:07
mhall119bluebomber: not much, getting excited for tomorrow00:07
bluebomberDo you have any independent "sources" (?) in your sources.list?00:07
mhall119I thought I did00:07
bluebomberI don't know the terminology00:08
bluebomberIn this line, what are "precise", "main", and "restricted"?    deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu precise main restricted00:08
mhall119"precise" is the release (12.04 in this case)00:09
mhall119each release has several archives00:09
mhall119"main" is open source stuff maintained by Canonical00:09
mhall119"universe" is open source stuff maintained by the community00:10
mhall119"restricted" is closed-source stuff maintained by Canonical00:10
bluebomberRight, I get that, but what are they, terminology wise? Sources? Repos?00:10
mhall119and "multiverse" is closed-source stuff maintained by the community00:10
mhall119repos00:10
bluebomberIn that line, deb is the protocol, http://...blah is the URI, and then those three are ... ah, ok, repos00:10
bluebomberThe independent repo was killing me for almost 2 weeks.00:11
bluebomber(And many others)00:11
mhall119yeah, so its: protocol url release repo repo repo00:11
bluebomberAhhh, ok, that makes even more sense.00:11
mhall119I'm not sure what independent is, maybe something from an older release?00:11
bluebomberidk. You don't have it, I take it?00:12
bluebomberI had it in 8 places.00:13
bluebomberSo, our Ubuntu Wiki is defunct now?00:15
bluebombermhall119: What's tomorrow?00:15
mhall119bluebomber: release day!00:16
bluebomberWell, yeah, but I thought you were referring to some physical event.00:16
bluebomberAre you going somewhere or doing something special? I don't see anything for tomorrow on the loco team portal.00:16
bluebomberhi, mhall119, itnet7 00:19

mhall119not my doing this time :)13:29
dorganis there  a way to install a specific version of a given package?14:58
dorganI need to spin up a new cloud instance but I need to to have the exact same version of mysql as another box, so that I can test the upgrade process14:58
leftyfbis there anyone around the Dade City area or can help someone out from there?14:59
zoopsterleftyfb: help with what?15:10

=== danstone1 is now known as danstoner
dorgan1so have everyone upgraded?19:39
itnet7dorgan1: I have on most of my machines, how about you?19:49
dorgan1yeah...but it seems really sluggish on my machine, and every now and then the search bar appears on its own19:50
dorgan1i am thinking i might have to go with a clean install19:50
=== dorgan1 is now known as dorgan
itnet7Were there any packages that are being held back?19:50
dorgani dont think so, but i havent run an upgrade or a dist-upgrade today19:51
dorganso i'll see if anything needs updating when i get home later19:51
itnet7Yeah!19:51
itnet7could be it, my older machine that I've been running 12.04 Beta 2 19:51
itnet7was updated this morning and it's seeming to do really well19:52
dorganhow old is that machine?19:52
itnet7It's about 5-6 years old, my silver dell inspiron 930019:52
itnet7Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 2.00GHz with 2 Gb's of ram19:53
dorganyeah i am running on an INSPIRON 150119:54
itnet7I do have an nivida card in here19:54
itnet7so maybe the gpu is helping a bit with unity19:54
dorganthe processor is AMD Turion 1.8Ghz  i think it was one of the first 64-bit processors19:55
dorgandamn i should upgrade the ram i can get 4GB for $5420:00
itnet7That would definitely make a difference... especially if you're using 64-bit20:01
dorganyeah20:02
itnet7I would love to upgrade the memory on my other dell. The only problem is the price gap... the no-name memory is 54 dollars to max it out, and crucial is like 16020:03
