bluebomber | Hey, 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/947296 | 00:05 |
bluebomber | X-D | 00:05 |
bluebomber | What's new? | 00:05 |
mhall119 | bluebomber: that's an interesting one, I haven't seen it on my system... | 00:07 |
mhall119 | bluebomber: not much, getting excited for tomorrow | 00:07 |
bluebomber | Do you have any independent "sources" (?) in your sources.list? | 00:07 |
mhall119 | I thought I did | 00:07 |
bluebomber | I don't know the terminology | 00:08 |
bluebomber | In this line, what are "precise", "main", and "restricted"? deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu precise main restricted | 00:08 |
mhall119 | "precise" is the release (12.04 in this case) | 00:09 |
mhall119 | each release has several archives | 00:09 |
mhall119 | "main" is open source stuff maintained by Canonical | 00:09 |
mhall119 | "universe" is open source stuff maintained by the community | 00:10 |
mhall119 | "restricted" is closed-source stuff maintained by Canonical | 00:10 |
bluebomber | Right, I get that, but what are they, terminology wise? Sources? Repos? | 00:10 |
mhall119 | and "multiverse" is closed-source stuff maintained by the community | 00:10 |
mhall119 | repos | 00:10 |
bluebomber | In that line, deb is the protocol, http://...blah is the URI, and then those three are ... ah, ok, repos | 00:10 |
bluebomber | The independent repo was killing me for almost 2 weeks. | 00:11 |
bluebomber | (And many others) | 00:11 |
mhall119 | yeah, so its: protocol url release repo repo repo | 00:11 |
bluebomber | Ahhh, ok, that makes even more sense. | 00:11 |
mhall119 | I'm not sure what independent is, maybe something from an older release? | 00:11 |
bluebomber | idk. You don't have it, I take it? | 00:12 |
bluebomber | I had it in 8 places. | 00:13 |
bluebomber | So, our Ubuntu Wiki is defunct now? | 00:15 |
bluebomber | mhall119: What's tomorrow? | 00:15 |
mhall119 | bluebomber: release day! | 00:16 |
bluebomber | Well, yeah, but I thought you were referring to some physical event. | 00:16 |
bluebomber | Are you going somewhere or doing something special? I don't see anything for tomorrow on the loco team portal. | 00:16 |
bluebomber | hi, mhall119, itnet7 | 00:19 |
mhall119 | bluebomber: no, just hanging out online, making sure nothing explodes ;) | 00:21 |
bluebomber | Cool! | 00:21 |
bluebomber | I'll hang around, too. | 00:21 |
bluebomber | I'm grading exams tomorrow. :-| | 00:21 |
mhall119 | better than taking them | 01:15 |

dorgan | is the ubuntu site down?? | 13:23 |
mhall119 | dorgan: not anymore | 13:28 |
dorgan | you spin up the ubuntu cloud instances!!! lol | 13:29 |
mhall119 | heh, no | 13:29 |
mhall119 | not my doing this time :) | 13:29 |
dorgan | is there a way to install a specific version of a given package? | 14:58 |
dorgan | I 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 process | 14:58 |
leftyfb | is there anyone around the Dade City area or can help someone out from there? | 14:59 |
zoopster | leftyfb: help with what? | 15:10 |
leftyfb | zoopster: he needs 12.04 burned to CD. He has no functioning OS | 15:11 |
zoopster | leftyfb: bummer. I could attempt to download the iso and burn to a cd and mail it since I'm down in St. pete...he'd get it tomorrow | 15:13 |
=== danstone1 is now known as danstoner | ||
dorgan1 | so have everyone upgraded? | 19:39 |
itnet7 | dorgan1: I have on most of my machines, how about you? | 19:49 |
dorgan1 | yeah...but it seems really sluggish on my machine, and every now and then the search bar appears on its own | 19:50 |
dorgan1 | i am thinking i might have to go with a clean install | 19:50 |
=== dorgan1 is now known as dorgan | ||
itnet7 | Were there any packages that are being held back? | 19:50 |
dorgan | i dont think so, but i havent run an upgrade or a dist-upgrade today | 19:51 |
dorgan | so i'll see if anything needs updating when i get home later | 19:51 |
itnet7 | Yeah! | 19:51 |
itnet7 | could be it, my older machine that I've been running 12.04 Beta 2 | 19:51 |
itnet7 | was updated this morning and it's seeming to do really well | 19:52 |
dorgan | how old is that machine? | 19:52 |
itnet7 | It's about 5-6 years old, my silver dell inspiron 9300 | 19:52 |
itnet7 | Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 2.00GHz with 2 Gb's of ram | 19:53 |
dorgan | yeah i am running on an INSPIRON 1501 | 19:54 |
itnet7 | I do have an nivida card in here | 19:54 |
itnet7 | so maybe the gpu is helping a bit with unity | 19:54 |
dorgan | the processor is AMD Turion 1.8Ghz i think it was one of the first 64-bit processors | 19:55 |
dorgan | damn i should upgrade the ram i can get 4GB for $54 | 20:00 |
itnet7 | That would definitely make a difference... especially if you're using 64-bit | 20:01 |
dorgan | yeah | 20:02 |
itnet7 | I 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 160 | 20:03 |
