LinuxMonkeyjohanbr: thanks, I started up the lug again in Moncton and was looking to get my key signed so that way I could offer it to others. ill have to keep an eye out.19:02
BobJonkmanLinuxMonkey: You can hold a keysigning party at one of your LUG meetings19:05
LinuxMonkeyWe arent quite at the stage of having physical meetings, Im just trying to be prepared to atleast have 1 key thats well connected if you know what i mean19:08
BobJonkmanYup.  A well-connected key is a source of good karma.19:09
LinuxMonkeylike I just got our website up and running a week ago or so.lol even registered a .ca domain name. :) monctonlug.ca19:10
BobJonkmanHey, you could form an Ubuntu chapter!19:12
LinuxMonkeyBobJonkman: I was planing on it. intertwine it with the lug :)19:12
BobJonkmanYou could have a release party - not so much for the distribution, but the release of the LUG.19:12
BobJonkmanPut up a page at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Moncton with a short blurb and a link back to http://monctonlug.ca/19:14
BobJonkmanThat's as official as it gets19:14
* BobJonkman looks over his shoulder to see if dscassel is listening to this19:14
BobJonkmanHmph.  dscassel isn't even online19:15
diegoHi, I am looking for on-site Ubuntu support. Is this a good place for such a query? I am in London, ON19:24
BobJonkmanHi diego: For support, you're better off going to irc://irc.freenode.net/#ubuntu19:27
BobJonkmanBut ask away, we'll do our best here19:27
BobJonkmanLinuxMonkey: Got Moncton LUG on the next Ubuntu IRC meeting: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings/2012-06-1219:27
LinuxMonkeyBobJonkman: looks like he is looking for someone to go onsite and support it19:31
BobJonkmanWhoops. Sorry, diego.  Yes, this is a better place for getting on-site support in Canada19:31
BobJonkmandiego: what kind of problem? How urgent?  When do you need someone onsite?19:32
* BobJonkman is possibly available for on-site support in London, a mere hour or so away19:32
LinuxMonkeyBobJonkman:  see the page I created it :)19:34
BobJonkmanLinuxMonkey: That would be this page? http://monctonlug.ca/links/81-ubuntu-canada19:42
LinuxMonkeyno19:43
LinuxMonkeythe page you told me to put up19:43
BobJonkmanAh! Yay!19:43
BobJonkmanAnd [[Moncton]] is now linked from the front page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam#Canadian_Team_Chapters19:46
LinuxMonkeycool im working on adding links to the Ubuntu Canada LoCo on the site19:47
LinuxMonkeythere added a few ill add more later :P19:51
BobJonkmanA thing of beauty.19:51
LinuxMonkeyusing an open source CMS makes me feel good too :)19:52
BobJonkmanCan't say I'm to thrilled with Joomla.  Inherited a commerce site once; pretty crufty.19:53
LinuxMonkeyBobJonkman: it all depends how its setup19:53
BobJonkmanThe cruftiness wasn't Joomla's fault, but the previous maintainer who hacked Joomla core19:54
LinuxMonkeyyeah ouch19:54
LinuxMonkeytry to access the admin part of the site, it should tell you its not found :)19:55
willwhJoomla? YUCK.19:56
willwhif you want to use an open source CMS - I would highly recommend drupal19:57
willwhit literally kicks the pants off joomla :p19:57
LinuxMonkeyyeah ive used drupal too.19:57
diegoI am trying to install Ubuntu on a new computer that has a RAID system and a new nvidia graphics card. I could work without the RAID if push comes to shove...19:58
diegonow I have no experience stetting something like this up so I prefer to leave it to an expert19:59
diegoI need this urgent as I am doing my phd and I need to setup linux to run my scripts...19:59
LinuxMonkey willwh  see the page. for what I needed it was a quick install, minimal config.19:59
willwhwhatever works right? :]20:00
