open_sourcehiya07:30
ali1234well this java issue is really starting to annoy me now07:30
open_sourceall u need is to update it07:31
open_sourceu can try07:31
ali1234that is precisely the thing that does not work07:31
ali1234but this is a windows issue, so no surprises that it fails hard07:31
ali1234microsoft + oracle... it doesn't get any worse than that07:32
open_sourcemicrosoft...:)07:32
open_sourcewat a joke07:32
ali1234the thing is, i can;t install java using the online installer. if you google for this it is an extremely common problem caused by a number of different issues07:34
ali1234the answer is always the same though: install using the offline installer07:34
ali1234if i do that, then i can never update it, because updates work the same way as the online installer07:34
ali1234the odd thing is it worked fine three days ago. today it doesn't07:35
ali1234since then, oracle released update 6. but it isn't on the downoad pages yet07:36
ali1234so i dunno if they have screwed up the download servers somehow or what07:36
ali1234afaict the download pages still point to the same files they did 3 days ago07:36

popeylike the idea of a global jam09:36
popeybe interested in taking part in that09:36
popeyespecially if we can find a decent size venue09:37

AlanBellgot an out of office from Marianna when emailing about the launch party09:39
extrasolarCan you just turn up to these events or do you need to be a sys admin or developer?09:39
AlanBelljust turn up09:39
extrasolarsweet09:40
AlanBellmost events involve the ability to hold a pint glass (or other glass if preferred)09:40
extrasolarThat's my speciality09:40
AlanBellthe global jam is more computer based, testing and filing bugs and maybe packaging stuff09:41
AlanBellpartly learning, partly doing. All depends on what people want to do09:41

Laney6 music are playing the singing from "Genie in a Bottle" by Christina Aguilera on top of the music from "Hard to Explain" by The Strokes10:01
Laneyit's grim and yet somewhat compelling10:01
mgdmI heard that one around 2005, I'm sure10:08
mgdmif not before10:09
mgdm<-- used to work in a student union doing sound10:09
ali1234it's much older than that10:09
ali12342002 at least10:09
mgdmI left there in 2005, so that's the latest I could've heard it :)10:09
mgdmbut I couldn't remember when the originals came out10:09

hooverwohoo, finally I'm able to connect to the SIII using jmtpfs10:10

AlanBellhttp://www.remainsofthegames.co.uk/ lots of interesting stuff to collect from Nottingham10:21
arsenso i've whacked 12.04 onto an amd box with a quadro 400 something nvidia card in it10:25
arsenactivating two screens seems to give some strange almost elastic behaviour to the cursor transitioning between displays, is that normal now?:s10:26
AlanBellyou can turn it off in the display settings10:26
arsenorly10:27
arsenso it's a feature :D10:27
arsen(thought it was a bug..)10:27
ali1234it gets harder to tell every day10:27
AlanBellyes, it is a feature that looks like a bug10:27
AlanBellanyone running quantal with two displays and got the launcher on only one of them? whatever I do it displays on both screens10:28
davmor2arsen: it's so you have to deliberately move from one display to another and not do it accidentally10:28
ali1234actually it's to make revealing the launcher when it is hidden possible10:29
* directhex moos10:30
directhexmoo!10:30
AlanBellnever mind, it works on a guest session, must be something wrong with my profile somewhere10:30
AlanBellarsen: you can use ccsm to tweak the amount of force required to transition between screens, default is the "erk, how on earth do I get over there?" level of friction10:31
arsenorly.10:33
arsenyeah, the thing for me is i run 8 screens and i'm constantly moving around, cant see id want that on by default.10:33
ali1234why would you even want unity on a setup like that?10:34
arsendoes anyone use ubuntu in the office as a desktop os? ive picked up an environment backed by NIS auth and i'm not a huge fan, but looking for ideas to replace.10:34
arseni'm not sure i do want unity on it :p its just out of the box install ali1234  :)10:34
AlanBellI use it in the office as a desktop OS, but no clever auth stuff going on here10:41
AlanBellCanonical don't appear to be going in the direction of the office PC very aggressively10:42
arsenyeah noted.10:43
AlanBellthey do have customers using it in the office, but the development is more consumer focussed and server/cloud stuff10:44
AlanBellnot integrated fleets of desktops10:44
directhexit's interesting, aiming for consumer10:44
directhexthe "year of the linux desktop" has been a constant disappointment, but the ubuntu app store seems serious, and with steam landing soon, it might just happen that suddenly, desktop linux is worthwhile to the universe10:45
arseni like the app store10:46
arseni just installed some 2d tux platform game :d10:46
ali1234yeah. and we only had to fill it with proprietary software and remove any semblance of choice in order to achieve it10:46
directhexali1234, who cared about "choice" other than nerds who are statistical noise?10:47
ali1234you mean the nerds who actually wrote all the software?10:47
directhexyeah, them10:47
AlanBelldoes anyone have a local network of machines that share authentication?10:48
ali1234sure10:48
ali1234i can log in to any machine on my network using the same ssh key10:48
AlanBellso can I because I copied it to all of them10:49
ali1234\o/10:49
AlanBelland created a user on each of them10:49
ali1234define "share" properly then :)10:49
arsenand how do you get onto your machine to do that?10:49
AlanBellok, I have my machine, and three kids have machines, they each have an account on their own machine but each one is a separate individual device, they can't go log onto another machine and get their stuff there10:50
arsen^ :)10:51
ali1234so you want some kind of shared filesystem too10:51
davmor2popey: check your broadband speeds now too I think you might be surprised for me I went from 28-35 meg to 60 using modem only mode10:51
arsenthe worst thing im enduring at the moment is an entire team's /home being on an nfs share10:51
arsen= nightmare10:51
AlanBellyes10:51
AlanBellwould be quite happy if you could sit down at any Ubuntu desktop and log into it with launchpad credentials (or Ubuntu SSO) then Ubuntu One Syncs down the important bits of your profile like the dot files and you just carry on10:52
ali1234given how slow U1 is, i don't think i would like that10:53
ali1234especially since it would have to download everything before displaying any kind of UI10:53
ali1234dotfiles = dconf now anyway10:54
AlanBell.mozilla isn't dconf10:54
ali1234the only other thing in there is monstrous stuff like firefox cache10:54
ali1234you really really really do not want to put firefox cache onto your synced homedir10:54
AlanBelloh yeah, that is bigger than I thought it was10:54
mgdmwhat's dconf? /me hasn't been paying attention10:55
ali1234it's like gconf only the wheels are a different shape10:55
AlanBellit is gconf but new10:55
AlanBellso some things use dconf and some things use gconf10:55
mgdmyay, brilliant10:55
directhexwe need to unify them10:56
directhexuconf!10:56
AlanBellhttp://xkcd.com/927/10:56
ali1234someone get lennart on the job10:57
mgdmali1234: NOOOOOOOOOOO10:57
extrasolarHi I want to log into my system a different way. instead of the gdm I want a terminal log in10:58
extrasolarany idea how to do this10:58
ali1234yes.10:59
extrasolarI use xmonad as a windows display manger10:59
extrasolar?10:59
ali1234http://askubuntu.com/questions/6357/dont-start-xserver10:59
ali1234that is probably out of date10:59
arseni get the feeling he wants xserver, but not for login?11:00
ali1234also you shouldn't do that whole "log in on terminal, run X manually" thing11:00
ali1234it's insecure because you can lock the screen, and then I can just ctrl-alt-backspace and get to your terminal11:00
ali1234assuming you have turned off dontzap like any sane person would11:01
extrasolar:o11:01
extrasolardamn11:01
ali1234what you should actually do is make a gdn session for xmonad11:01
ali1234this is not as hard as it sounds11:01
ali1234*gdm11:01
extrasolarso you wouldn't recommend this?11:02
ali1234don't disable the xserver11:02
extrasolarhow about this though http://www.debianadmin.com/how-to-disable-x-or-gui-on-boot-in-debian.html11:02
ali1234yeah same principle applies11:03
ali1234unless you don't want to use X11 at all, use a login manager, not startx11:03
extrasolarhmmm11:03
ali1234http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Using_xmonad_in_Gnome#Ubuntu_Oneiric11:03
ali1234this is how to do it properly11:03
ali1234configure the xmonad.session however you want11:04
ali1234and then login using the normal login manager11:04
extrasolarhmm well I am actually using debian11:04
ali1234well they have instructions for debian too11:04
extrasolaryep11:04
extrasolarcheers11:05
extrasolarWhy would you want to disbale x or GUI on boot? I only want to do it because it's cool11:05
extrasolaris there any other coo reason/11:05
extrasolarpractical *11:05
ali1234well yeah, if you have no monitor cos it's a server and you accidentally installed from desktop cd...11:07
ali1234you might also want x server installed on a server so you can xhost software from it, but it doesn't need to run a server to do that11:08
ali1234but it does need most of one installed11:08
extrasolarahh ok11:09
extrasolarwell cheers for your help I am off to test11:09

Adriannomhi.  i'm running xubuntu 12.04 and have an NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GS.  i'm using a newer, bigger monitor (HP LP3065) than before but my selection of resolutions is lower than before.  the maximum i can achieve now is 1200x800.  anyone got any tips on diagnosing the problem?17:04
Azelphurwow that thing is supposed to do 2560x1440, nice monitor17:06
Azelphurare you using nvidia proprietary?17:06
Adriannomyeah17:06
Azelphuroh wait hold on17:06
AzelphurI'm pretty sure that graphics card won't drive that monitor17:06
Adriannomheh, well i'm reading your messages on it ;)17:07
AzelphurAdriannom: not at full res, I mean :)17:07
Adriannomsure, but would that mean i would be able to use LESS resolutions than before?17:08
Azelphurwell yea, because the aspect ratio changed17:08
Azelphurand your in an unsupported setup17:08
Adriannomok17:08
Adriannompoo17:08
Azelphuryou need a new card I'd think17:08
AzelphurI mean I'm not 100%17:09
Azelphurbut I know when I bought my new 2560x1440 monitors they wouldn't work with my 9500GT17:09
Azelphurso it's unlikely your 2560x1600 will work with a 7300GS17:09
Adriannommy friend just said he has a spare card17:09
Adriannomif it'll fit17:09
Adriannom:P17:09
Azelphurwhat type?17:09
Azelphuryea, cnet says max resolution on 7300GS is 1920x120017:10
Adriannomyeah that res is fine by me17:10
Adriannombut i guess i can't have it with this gfx17:10
Adriannomanyway his card will definitely run it17:10
Adriannomso i guess i'll go see if it can fit in my pc17:10
Azelphurand the monitor requires a dual link DVI connection, as I thought17:11
Adriannomright17:11
AzelphurAdriannom: what card is it?17:11
Adriannomno idea :P17:11

Azelphur4870 exists that's an ATI card17:13
Azelphurit's also pretty old17:13
Adriannomit defo works with this monitor17:14
Adriannomjust maybe not my pc17:14
Azelphurit does apparently support 2560x1600 dual link DVI though17:14
Azelphurso it should be ok17:14

ali1234yah but so what? he can't, because he has no money20:10
Azelphurhaha20:10
Azelphurali1234: so if he pays out, does that mean I win?20:11
ali1234if he pays out 100% of everything he owes then yeah i guess20:11

AzelphurI'm in an account that was one of the first, so I get paid back first20:11

Azelphurfront of ze queue :)20:11
Azelphurhehe20:12
ali1234congrats for stealing from people eve more gullible than yourself :/20:12
ali1234anyway i guess we find out soon enough20:12
AzelphurxD20:12
ali1234i can't find any information about this20:13
Azelphurhttps://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=50822.020:13
ali1234but clearly everyone knows but me. i can tell this by looking at gox chart20:13
Azelphurhehe20:14
Azelphurali1234: price skyrocketing?20:14
ali1234no, it dropped by about 35% in the past 2 hours20:14
ali1234$14.7 -> $11.320:14
Azelphurhaha oh yea20:15
Azelphurali1234: lol damn it was £9.8 earlier20:17
ali1234yeah i sold a couple20:17
ali1234i figured it was crazy friday20:17
ali1234and crazy friday always followed by bipolar saturday20:18
ali1234i didn't really expect this though20:18
ali1234thought irate had another couple of months left in him20:18
Azelphurali1234: yea I sold some at 8.2 the other day20:18
Azelphur£570 worth20:18
ali1234i never trade that much20:19
Azelphurali1234: I have a little south of 2k btc :p20:19
ali1234maybe pirate is actually a genius. imagine if he does this:20:24
ali1234run a ponzi with btc until breaking point20:24
ali1234then lock all accounts, sell *all* the btc, and invest the USD ina  brand new HYIP which is obviously also a ponzi, but is brand new20:25
ali1234then immediately withdraw it a couple of days later, thus making a huge profit20:25
ali1234then pay everyone back and look like a genius20:25
ali1234this would also explain the massive dip in btc price20:26
ali1234it's a huge gamble though20:26
* Azelphur shrugs20:28
Azelphurali1234:  lol wtf it's gone back up again20:48

simplyskaHey guys, I was wondering if someone could help. My Ubuntu box is connected to my network fine, but for some reason does not have internet access, and I can't figure out what's gone wrong. It's connected via Ethernet. I'm not running a GUI either. Thanks.22:49
brobostigonsimplyska: have you checked it is getting an ip, and dns is working correctly.?22:53
simplyskaYeah it's getting an ip via dhcp. I can ping localhost, however nslookup localhost seems to time out. I have virgin medias name servers in resolv.conf22:56
brobostigonany firewall, to block stuff?22:57
=== simplyska_ is now known as simplyska
simplyskaNo only the firewall on my vm superhub, but I've tried disabling that to no avail.23:02
simplyskaAha I found the culprit, I had it in the MAC filter list for some reason.23:05
simplyskaCheers for your help23:05
brobostigon:)23:06
