| jrgifford | paultag: so stable, testing or sid? | 00:27 |
| jrgifford | nope, not going to OLF. wasn't able to schedule it this time. :\ | 00:27 |
| jrgifford | someday! | 00:27 |
| paultag | jrgifford: I (personally) encurage use of unstable for a few reasons | 00:27 |
| paultag | jrgifford: but testing is perfectly OK | 00:28 |
| paultag | I run experimental >:) | 00:28 |
| paultag | (sekret distro) | 00:28 |
| jrgifford | paultag: sweet. torrenting the iso now, time to get me a copy of sid. :D | 00:28 |
| paultag | \o/ | 00:28 |
| paultag | jrgifford: if you need some help, or want to contribute there too, let me know! | 00:28 |
| jrgifford | i need a OS that runs on my laptop that serves as a glorfied virtualbox hypervisor. :P | 00:29 |
| paultag | ah, cool :) | 00:29 |
| jrgifford | and debian seems to fit the bill. | 00:29 |
| paultag | there's some newfangled php front-end, btw | 00:29 |
| paultag | so you can put it on a server and kick up machines via the web | 00:29 |
| paultag | but that sounds like it's outside of what you're trying to do :) | 00:30 |
| jrgifford | if i'm going to do that, then i'll just use esxi | 00:30 |
| paultag | http://code.google.com/p/phpvirtualbox/ | 00:30 |
| jrgifford | and yes. :) | 00:30 |
| paultag | but look! http://phpvirtualbox.googlecode.com/svn/wiki/images/phpvbsm.png | 00:30 |
| * paultag gets back to learning clojure | 00:30 | |
| jrgifford | i know. ;P | 00:31 |
| jrgifford | paultag: i'd assume the best way to get debian testing for a laptop would be to download the netinst iso, right? | 00:37 |
| paultag | jrgifford: yep | 00:37 |
| paultag | and from there, you can upgrade to sid, if you wish | 00:37 |
| jrgifford | that way i'm not really limited by the stuff on the cd, and i can at least attempt to get drivers for my trackpad. ;P | 00:38 |
| paultag | which machine? | 00:38 |
| jrgifford | thinkpad t61 | 00:38 |
| paultag | works OTB | 00:38 |
| paultag | thinkpads are well supported, considering most every DD I know has one | 00:38 |
| jrgifford | sweet. didn't in fedora rawhide last week. ;P | 00:38 |
| paultag | and esp the T6 | 00:38 |
| paultag | erm, T61 | 00:38 |
| paultag | that's like the AK-47 of laptops | 00:39 |
| jrgifford | awesome. thanks for the help. | 00:39 |
| paultag | np | 00:39 |
| jrgifford | hahah, yeah. the joke at work is you can murder someone with it, and use it to write your confession afterwards. :D | 00:39 |
| paultag | hahaha yep :) | 00:39 |
| paultag | proud [BI really want the X1-Carbon | 00:40 |
| paultag | bah, fucking irssi | 00:40 |
| paultag | but the power adapt -- no love. | 00:41 |
| jrgifford | the X1 looks sweeetttt. | 00:43 |
| paultag | totes | 00:43 |
| jrgifford | hadn't thought about the power adapter | 00:43 |
| paultag | I've got about 5 of them | 00:44 |
| paultag | and it's really nice to not carry them around | 00:44 |
| jrgifford | yeah, three of the guys at work have various thinkpads | 00:44 |
| jrgifford | if i forget my charger, i know i can just borrow theirs for an hour, and then send it back to them, and i can make it through the day. | 00:44 |
| jrgifford | and vice versa. | 00:44 |
| paultag | and I was planning my future condo's power situation by bundling USB hubs, CAT6 and a ThinkPad power guy in about 4 tables, with one for each seat | 00:44 |
| jrgifford | hahah. :D | 00:45 |
| paultag | it makes my life suck so much less | 00:45 |
| paultag | GOOG has that setup going, and it's great | 00:45 |
| paultag | (without USB) | 00:45 |
| jrgifford | i can imagine. | 00:45 |
| paultag | just drop into a conf' room and plug in | 00:45 |
| paultag | but alas | 00:45 |
| paultag | the X1-Carbon | 00:45 |
| paultag | how I hate tee | 00:45 |
| paultag | thee* | 00:45 |
| paultag | brb shower | 00:46 |
| jrgifford | so you're saying the X series power adapter is different from the t*? | 00:46 |
| paultag | jrgifford: I assume so | 00:46 |
| jrgifford | :( | 00:46 |
| jrgifford | ok. | 00:46 |
| paultag | jrgifford: consider the barrel is about 2x larger then the width of the machine | 00:46 |
| paultag | not to mention it looks square from the photos | 00:46 |
| jrgifford | true | 00:46 |
| paultag | brb shower | 00:46 |
| jrgifford | k, cya in a bit | 00:47 |
| jrgifford | well, part 1 has been fun | 01:11 |
| jrgifford | had to get into busybox and chroot my way into /target | 01:11 |
| jrgifford | tasksel was acting odd | 01:11 |
| jrgifford | ugh. i think i'll just need to stick with my 10.04 install for my glofified hypervisor. :\ | 01:17 |
| jrgifford | need to run through the install a few times in a VM before I do it in the hardware. | 01:17 |
| paultag | jrgifford: what the fuck | 01:18 |
| paultag | RE: 21:11 <+jrgifford> had to get into busybox and chroot my way into /target | 01:18 |
| paultag | never once had to do that | 01:18 |
| paultag | ever | 01:18 |
| paultag | oh because of tasksel | 01:18 |
| jrgifford | paultag: i'll figure it out, just don't have time to spend more time today. :P | 01:18 |
| paultag | what was it doing? | 01:18 |
| jrgifford | was telling me i had unmet dependencies | 01:18 |
| paultag | yeah, I mean, if Ubuntu works | 01:18 |
| paultag | jrgifford: o.O | 01:18 |
| paultag | jrgifford: please write down the error and report it | 01:18 |
| jrgifford | chrooted, selected the same packages, and it worked | 01:19 |
| paultag | jrgifford: it's a big problem, we're frozen, shit like that shouldn't happen | 01:19 |
| jrgifford | oh | 01:19 |
| jrgifford | i think i was running off an outdated mirror | 01:19 |
| paultag | ahh. | 01:19 |
| jrgifford | hangon, let me try a different one | 01:20 |
| paultag | still | 01:20 |
| paultag | (but that would explain the issue) | 01:20 |
| paultag | stale mirrors are the bane of everyone's setups right now, you should use http.debian.net | 01:20 |
| paultag | it's legit. | 01:20 |
| paultag | automagically finds the fastest mirror | 01:20 |
| jrgifford | yeah, i was using an outdated mirror | 01:22 |
| jrgifford | lovely. ;P | 01:22 |
| paultag | bleh | 01:22 |
| paultag | http.d.n rocks | 01:22 |
| * jrgifford will keep that in mind | 01:22 | |
| * canthus13 yawns. | 01:22 | |
| Unit193 | http://fridge.ubuntu.com/2012/09/27/code-of-conduct-v2-request-for-feedback/ Sure everyone has seen this by now. | 20:10 |
| gilbert_ | paultag: what's the plan 4 saturday? | 21:53 |
