[18:29] <LinuxMonkey> Hi Guys and Girls
[18:37] <willwh> hi
[18:38] <LinuxMonkey> whats up :)
[18:43] <willwh> LinuxMonkey: I'm at work
[18:45] <LinuxMonkey> ah nice :)
[18:54] <LinuxMonkey> I'm wondering if anyone near me has a signed gpgkey. I would like to get mine signed. lol
[18:54] <LinuxMonkey> im in New-brunswick
[18:58] <johanbr> LinuxMonkey, I know there used to a few Ubuntu people in Fredericton... not sure if they're still around and active, though
[19:02] <LinuxMonkey> johanbr: 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.
[19:05] <BobJonkman> LinuxMonkey: You can hold a keysigning party at one of your LUG meetings
[19:08] <LinuxMonkey> We 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 mean
[19:09] <BobJonkman> Yup.  A well-connected key is a source of good karma.
[19:10] <LinuxMonkey> like I just got our website up and running a week ago or so.lol even registered a .ca domain name. :) monctonlug.ca
[19:12] <BobJonkman> Hey, you could form an Ubuntu chapter!
[19:12] <LinuxMonkey> BobJonkman: I was planing on it. intertwine it with the lug :)
[19:12] <BobJonkman> You could have a release party - not so much for the distribution, but the release of the LUG.
[19:14] <BobJonkman> Put up a page at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Moncton with a short blurb and a link back to http://monctonlug.ca/
[19:14] <BobJonkman> That's as official as it gets
[19:14]  * BobJonkman looks over his shoulder to see if dscassel is listening to this
[19:15] <BobJonkman> Hmph.  dscassel isn't even online
[19:24] <diego> Hi, I am looking for on-site Ubuntu support. Is this a good place for such a query? I am in London, ON
[19:27] <BobJonkman> Hi diego: For support, you're better off going to irc://irc.freenode.net/#ubuntu
[19:27] <BobJonkman> But ask away, we'll do our best here
[19:27] <BobJonkman> LinuxMonkey: Got Moncton LUG on the next Ubuntu IRC meeting: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings/2012-06-12
[19:31] <LinuxMonkey> BobJonkman: looks like he is looking for someone to go onsite and support it
[19:31] <BobJonkman> Whoops. Sorry, diego.  Yes, this is a better place for getting on-site support in Canada
[19:32] <BobJonkman> diego: 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 away
[19:34] <LinuxMonkey> BobJonkman:  see the page I created it :)
[19:42] <BobJonkman> LinuxMonkey: That would be this page? http://monctonlug.ca/links/81-ubuntu-canada
[19:43] <LinuxMonkey> no
[19:43] <LinuxMonkey> the page you told me to put up
[19:43] <BobJonkman> Ah! Yay!
[19:46] <BobJonkman> And [[Moncton]] is now linked from the front page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam#Canadian_Team_Chapters
[19:47] <LinuxMonkey> cool im working on adding links to the Ubuntu Canada LoCo on the site
[19:51] <LinuxMonkey> there added a few ill add more later :P
[19:51] <BobJonkman> A thing of beauty.
[19:52] <LinuxMonkey> using an open source CMS makes me feel good too :)
[19:53] <BobJonkman> Can't say I'm to thrilled with Joomla.  Inherited a commerce site once; pretty crufty.
[19:53] <LinuxMonkey> BobJonkman: it all depends how its setup
[19:54] <BobJonkman> The cruftiness wasn't Joomla's fault, but the previous maintainer who hacked Joomla core
[19:54] <LinuxMonkey> yeah ouch
[19:55] <LinuxMonkey> try to access the admin part of the site, it should tell you its not found :)
[19:56] <willwh> Joomla? YUCK.
[19:57] <willwh> if you want to use an open source CMS - I would highly recommend drupal
[19:57] <willwh> it literally kicks the pants off joomla :p
[19:57] <LinuxMonkey> yeah ive used drupal too.
[19:58] <diego> I 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...
[19:59] <diego> now I have no experience stetting something like this up so I prefer to leave it to an expert
[19:59] <diego> I 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.
[20:00] <willwh> whatever works right? :]
[20:01] <LinuxMonkey> yup :)
[20:02] <LinuxMonkey> I may convert to drupal but I have less experience with it.  Going to setup a dev site and play around with it more.
[20:02] <willwh> LinuxMonkey: I highly recommend you install drush
[20:03] <willwh> it's a shell for drupal, and it's AWESOME.
[20:04] <willwh> looks like 4.5.6 is in the ubuntu repos
[20:04] <willwh> that pretty much has everything you need
[20:04] <willwh> but worth installing the latest with pear ;)
[20:04] <LinuxMonkey> lol
[20:05] <LinuxMonkey> willwh: lol i just pop it to a htaccess protected folder/domain on the host I use.lol
[20:06] <LinuxMonkey> Unfortunatly I dont have any spare servers/pc lying around right now to setup an ubuntu server
[20:06] <willwh> bummer :)
[20:06] <willwh> your first amazon ec2 micro instance is free, I think
[20:07] <LinuxMonkey> willwh: lol yeah im with Dreamhost for the moment :)
[20:14] <LinuxMonkey> in other news, I'm going for a nap. been up since yesterday.
[20:15] <willwh> yay naps!
