[00:32] <philipballew> pleia2, The info you gave Dave seemed good. In case you did not know, he is a regular here for ubuntu events in San Diego.
[00:32] <philipballew> thanks pleia2
[06:56] <raevol> new hard drives :>
[06:56] <raevol> 128 gig Kingston HyperX ssd, and 2 TB Seagate
[07:06] <bkerensa> raevol: they are nice
[07:06] <raevol> :D
[07:06] <bkerensa> raevol: I have a Kingston 128GIG HyperX SSD myself
[07:06] <raevol> rsyncing all my crap from backups
[07:06] <bkerensa> heh
[07:06] <bkerensa> raevol: did you update the firmware first?
[07:06] <bkerensa> for the SSD itself
[07:07] <raevol> hmm, i didn't
[07:07] <bkerensa> yeah
[07:07] <bkerensa> I would do that first because the only way to update firmware is to format
[07:07] <bkerensa> :)
[07:07] <raevol> i'm also using it on a mobo that only supports 3 gb/s
[07:07] <bkerensa> oh
[07:07] <raevol> any real reason to update the firmare?
[07:07] <bkerensa> uhh just for performance and other fixes
[07:07] <bkerensa> it depends what version they shipped u with
[07:07] <raevol> :/
[07:08] <raevol> is there a way to tell?
[07:08] <bkerensa> im not sure if they update them as they ship
[07:08] <bkerensa> uhh yeah
[07:08] <bkerensa> :)
[07:08] <bkerensa> you have to use a *cough* windows app
[07:08] <raevol> what a shame, i have no windows
[07:08] <bkerensa> well then ur out of luck updating firmware eitherway :)
[07:09] <raevol> eh
[07:12] <raevol> gonna watch Rush Hour while i do this rsync
[07:12] <raevol> :D
[07:12] <raevol> ttyl!
[18:36] <bkerensa> pleia2: I would love to highlight partimus in a article on OMG does Partimus have any big installs planned coming up?
[18:37] <pleia2> bkerensa: there is some more work in oakland that one of our core volunteers is planning on writing about soon, I can put you in touch with him if you'd like
[18:38] <bkerensa> pleia2: totally
[18:39] <bkerensa> pleia2: So I imagine Xubuntu is going to exceed Ubuntu in popularity in Oregon soon
[18:39] <bkerensa> pleia2: FreeGeek will be officially transitioning from Ubuntu to Xubuntu 12.04 on 12/04/12 :)
[18:43] <pleia2> cool
[20:49] <nhandler> It is looking like I'll be out in the Bay area this summer. Looking forward to meeting up with as many of you guys as possible and continuing my quest to match faces with IRC names
[20:49] <pleia2> yay :)
[21:34] <raevol> does anyone have a good understanding of how rsync handles permissions?
[21:35] <raevol> i want rsync to set the permissions of everything on the destination to a particular thing, but i don't want it to re-sync everything every time just because it has set the permissions on the destination differently
