[07:20] Morning all [07:20] top of the morning :> [07:21] listning to Ubuntu-UK Podcast before going to work :) [07:21] yay [07:21] should install Ubuntu on my laptop instead of Windows 8 when i stop being lazy aswell as the wificard works now with 13.04 [07:21] :p [07:26] Yes, yes you should. [07:27] but i think i should save for a bigger SSD or macbook but i promised myself, to save all my money to go to US to meet one person i like :p [07:27] but well an 80GB SSD is okay in a laptop [07:27] should install Ubuntu on it when i stop being lazy and change Unity to Openbox or something proper :p [07:28] ah well have to go to work [07:49] good morning eveyrone, [07:55] morning [07:56] morning MooDoo [07:56] :) [07:58] :) [07:59] just found something interesting, arduinodroid, an arduino ide for android, just playing about with it. === alan_g|life is now known as alan_g [08:22] how was the party last night? [08:22] not a clue. [08:26] morning folks,,, [08:26] morning [08:26] party was alright, we were outside on the decking and the weather was lovely.. so that was nice [08:26] lovely :) [08:27] i got nicely sloshed and spouted alot of rubbish, so a success in my book :) [08:29] haha ☻ [08:29] excellent, a typical release party [08:30] I recall one of the first ones I went to, I was helping someone with their laptop. Mark Shuttleworth arrived, walked over and said "Hi, I'm Mark". I was like "DUUUUH I know who you are!" (in my head) [08:30] :P hehe [08:30] starstruck much :) [08:30] yeah ☻ [08:30] yeh, no sign of him this time that's for sure [08:30] ahoy [08:31] there wasn't really a tech help session and i didn't see anyone installing, mostly just chatting and boozing [08:31] yeah, he's busy flying around the world marketing ubuntu to everyone ☻ [08:33] Morning [08:34] pip pip [08:34] looking forward to beerex [08:34] :-D [08:34] my mate dave is coming too, and hugo [08:34] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farnham_Beer_Exhibition [08:36] Good morning all, happy Hangover Day! >:-D [08:37] NET||abuse: well, there's less and less call for installfests these days. It tends to all just work... [08:38] * JamesTait turned into a babbling idiot fanboi upon (literally) bumping into Mark in Budapest. [08:38] Most embarassing. [08:40] morning all [08:40] yo [08:42] JamesTait: did you tell him what day it was [08:42] MooDoo, nope. I opened with "Ooops, sorry!" [08:43] Before realising who he was, then proceeding to tell him why he's a massive celebrity in our house. [08:43] And finally getting a photo. [08:43] haha [08:44] He was very cool about the whole thing. I think he was embarassed for me. :) [08:44] ☻ [08:45] was that at a UDS? [08:45] It was. I think I made a better impression at the Canonical All Stars gig on the Friday night. [08:45] popey: I assume you mean this party, http://bootie.daviey.com/~dave/release_party.JPG ? [08:46] JamesTait: i'm sure people would be the same with meeting popey or czajkowski or Daviey or davmor2 they are celebs in my house :) [08:46] nice url. bootie.daviey.com :) [08:46] * JamesTait has a bag autographed by popey and Daviey. ;) [08:46] evil looking face on popey in that [08:47] As well as Laura, Tony and Ciemon, and Dan and Fab from Linux Outlaws. [08:47] popey: what were you doing to Mark's behind? [08:47] JamesTait: yup and AlanBell and TheOpenSourcerer [08:55] AlanBell: there used to be a page on the wiki that had some more photos. Particularly of the 2008 release party. Do you know where it went? [08:57] damn, it was Adam Bagnalls photos - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/Gallery/HardyReleaseParty2008?action=recall&rev=2 [08:58] yes Daviey ! [08:59] what about this one daviey it's you! - http://www.flickr.com/photos/secretlondon/2439356023/in/photostream/ [08:59] popey: Happen to know what happened? He asked ubuntu-uk.org to mirror it [08:59] nope [08:59] and the ubuntu cake - http://www.flickr.com/photos/secretlondon/2440148340/ [08:59] oh wow. Daviey without a beard. [08:59] I didn't know such a thing happened. [08:59] erk [08:59] I actually did shave it off last month :) [08:59] wow [09:00] Also, I might be in UK in July. [09:00] We should try to met this time. [09:00] ahoy === SuperMat1 is now known as SuperMatt [09:02] nigelb: sounds good [09:03] popey: looks like they were lost last year.. :( [09:03] Good morning peeps :) [09:03] Are we all sober after the release parties? [09:04] yes yes [09:04] I had mcdonalds breakfast [09:04] ish [09:04] everything is now fixed [09:04] Daviey: eh? [09:04] Liam got me very drunk again :/ [09:04] oh, they're on the box? [09:04] /o\ [09:05] I'm just back from the post office having had my passport renewal application checked. Glad I did as it failed due to my counter signatory making mistakes :( [09:06] Daviey: not on my backups ☹ [09:06] bigcalm, need to get an application done for the baby [09:07] directhex: I don't have a baby [09:08] bigcalm, well, i do. getting him to pose for a passport photo will be tricky [09:08] :D [09:10] directhex: I still don't believe your passport has weather patterns oon it. [09:10] software updater is kinda nice now [09:10] nigelb, you saw the photo! [09:10] directhex: I did! [09:10] I'm not sure about the new icons [09:11] And I'm struggling to get ATI drivers for the laptop - again [09:11] meh, still on precise. [09:11] i just bought a geforce... [09:11] All future laptops will be geforce powered. ATI is nothing but trouble [09:12] nigelb, overcast on page 5-6,9-10, cloudy on page 7-8, rainy on page 11-12 [09:12] popey: it looks like it was removed from ubuntu-uk.org when we switched to WP site [09:12] Hm, interesting... it's sunny and hailing. [09:12] that's page 23-24 [09:13] popey: /srv/old.ubuntu-uk.org/www is now a dangling symling to /var/www/ubuntu-uk.org [09:13] Daviey: yeah, bummer, sorry. [09:13] directhex: Haha. [09:13] popey: Don't know who it was, sorry, wasn't blaming you [09:13] I just emailed Adam, to see if he still has them [09:14] Would be a shame to lose critical artifacts :) [09:14] it probably was me tbh [09:18] bah, no milk [09:18] * Laney grimaces at the thought of black tea [09:19] Laney: have a fruit tea or black coffee [09:20] bigcalm: I already made a pot :( [09:20] Doh [09:20] ho hum [09:21] moo juice! [09:21] do you live on or near a farm...? [09:22] i live quite firmly inside a city [09:23] not aware of any farms for several miles [09:23] how about urban cows? [09:23] do deer produce milk? there's deer in the park up the road [09:23] you hear urban farming is a thing, there must be urban cows [09:23] we've got about ten liters of UHT whole milk in our emergency cupboard :-P [09:23] (mainly used for making yoghurt) [09:23] UHT is not a job for the emergency cupboard. UHT is for use in the fallout shelter when you run out of fresh rat milk [09:25] well for it's main purpose in our household it works fine [09:26] (its) [09:26] I recon it's better to buy organic British UHT whole milk than to buy some New Zealand powdered milk with witch craft in it [09:27] (ie. use some old yoghurt as a culture and mix it in the UHT milk rather than using Easy-Yo packs and water) [09:47] http://www.polygon.com/2013/4/25/4267978/left-4-dead-2-for-linux-public-beta-releasing-next-week [09:48] note: this is left 4 dead 2 beta, not left 4 dead 2. you cannot play with left 4 dead 2 players, only left 4 dead 2 beta players [09:48] much like tf2 [10:17] Morning all [10:19] hey hey [10:19] MooDoo: Celebs are we now, hmmm [10:19] [10:28] davmor2: yes you are to me any way..... [10:28] davmor2: just take the compliment you :) [10:29] MooDoo: hahaha Morning dude :) [10:29] morning :) [10:35] popey: What time are we meeting this evening and where? [10:35] TheOpenSourcerer: will get a train from Ash vale I think.. need to chase Dave [10:43] TheOpenSourcerer: hmm, i have 5 tickets, are 3 of them yours? [10:43] you, AlanBell and A.N.Other? [10:43] Don't think so. [10:43] Not us. [10:43] hm [10:44] i may have a spare ticket then [10:44] Is filace coming? [10:44] yes [10:44] what about cz then? [10:44] dont fink so [10:44] I may pop down [10:53] Too many Daves [10:54] Dave2: you seem to be insinuating that, that is a bad thing [10:55] be good to see you czajkowski [10:55] would be nice if I could stay a bit sober [10:55] popey: shall we have a curry :) [10:56] * czajkowski wont bring pringles ;) [10:56] ohh [10:56] TheOpenSourcerer: is there a plan to curry? [10:56] this sounds like a good evening ahead :) [10:56] an alternative release party [10:56] :) [10:56] Release Party II: I know what you did last night. [10:57] ha hahahaha [10:57] any extreame ironing popey ? [10:57] I do hope not [10:57] lol [10:57] Nom Nom, curry. [10:57] popey: I do nt have a plan but that sounds like a good one :-) [10:58] heh, that's an awkward default. VM with 2gb disk, 1gb ram. installer creates 1gb filesystem and 1gb swap. so I've got roughly 250MB disk left out of the box [10:58] useful [10:59] shauno: that's plenty enough space for minecraft, what's the issue? [10:59] ;) [11:00] hah, my world dir is 700MB [11:00] ouch lol [11:01] * popey wonders how big the home server one is [11:01] it shouldn't actually be an issue, the application gets mounted from a second disk. it just feels a bit like ryanair. technically enough space for 2 legs, but only on paper [11:57] raid array suddendly thinks 4 disks are dead :( [11:57] not sure who to believe === alan_g is now known as alan_g|lunch [13:07] hey everyone :) [13:07] just downloading 13.04 , can"t wait to give it a spin on my Lenovo x212 [13:07] hi .. there ... [13:08] afternoonings knightwise [13:10] hey brobostigon how are ya [13:10] knightwise: overall pretty good today, and you? [13:11] looong boring meetings today [13:11] :( [13:13] bwa , its ok , mostly hiding behind my screen while doing some IRC and downloading the 3 new ISO's :p [13:13] and yell something intelligent once in a while [13:14] i installed 13.04 last night, nothing special, just worked as usual :D [13:14] I'm thinking of doing a dist upgrade on my PROBOOK 6560b [13:14] knightwise: :) === alan_g|lunch is now known as alan_g [13:18] there you go .. all three ISO's going tot da Usb Stick :) [13:20] :) [13:56] hello, I have a computer with a touchscreen and what I want to do is plug it into a project and mirror the display, so my main screen gets resized/letterboxed, but be able to keep using the stylus. So the calibration numbers for the stylus would adjust to the new screen geometry. I have tried googling, but I don't know what terms to search for. === alan_g is now known as alan_g|tea [14:40] celesteh: what kind of computer is it? [14:43] hey guys [14:44] allo andylock1an [14:44] can anyone sort me out some help with an apache reverse proxy - I've forgotten how to get the page to return the URLs with the folder path's rewritten [14:45] http://dpaste.com/1074499/ === andylock1an is now known as andylockran [14:46] heya dwa [14:46] heya dwatkins [14:48] andylockran: ProxyPassReverse? [14:48] andylockran: he says, without clicking the link === alan_g|tea is now known as alan_g [14:54] dwatkins: a lenovo x220 tablet running ubuntu studio 13.04 [15:01] celesteh: it should have fn keys you can use to switch display modes, although I have no idea if they're implemented in Raring; you might need to manually select the display option to mirror it. [15:01] ...assuming Raring picks up the secondary screen, of course. [15:05] The problem I'm having is that if the screen resolution changes, say because of mirroring, the callibration for the touch screen does not compensate for this [15:05] So the place where i'm touching the screen is not where the arrow is appearing [15:06] celesteh: do you know what make of touch device it is? [15:06] is it a wacom one? [15:10] popey: What's the plan dude? [15:10] Cobbett at 6? [15:11] popey: it's treated as a wacom by ubuntu, but i think this is not the actual make. there's some firmaware update i'm supposed to install which will effect how ubuntu sees it [15:13] mgdm: I tell ye, running a reverse proxy is turning out to be miles harder than I'd have thought === alan_g_ is now known as alan_g [15:22] TheOpenSourcerer: I should be on the train arriving at 17:25 [15:22] so will walk down to town, and should be at the cobbet before 6 [15:23] andylockran: apache isn't all that good at it [15:24] celesteh: there's a wacom-tools package I think which has a tool you can use to recalibrate [15:24] xsetwacom is the command [15:25] you can use that to set the orientation, and resolution and such [15:26] cheers [15:26] popey: when I come outta the train station where do I head to ? [15:27] popey: Grand/Champion. Will see thee there then. [15:27] Or I might wait for you at the station ;-) [15:28] czajkowski: william cobbet pub [15:28] I'm not finding these tools in the ubntu software centre thing. ... I should also mention I'm using gnome [15:28] or just ping me, or look me up on latitude [15:28] !info wacom-tools [15:28] Package wacom-tools does not exist in quantal [15:28] bah [15:28] popey: cheers [15:29] celesteh: i dont know what the package name is these days, sorry. and i need to go away from keyboard to catch a train [15:31] choooo chooo [15:32] popey, xserver-xorg-input-wacom - X.Org X server -- Wacom input driver? [15:32] mgdm: would you reckon nginx would be better? [15:33] Ok, thanks for your help. Have a good train trip [15:33] andylockran: possibly - the only one I have real experience with is Varnish [15:33] andylockran: but I've at least played with nginx doing that [15:39] 7.5MB/s to leech Solid Steel podcasts. This still amuses me [15:41] → beer [15:41] ttfn [15:42] have fun [15:45] 1h15m remaining to the week [15:45] Don't think I'm going to get everything done. Looks like another working weekend. [15:46] Do I care too much about the job? [15:46] only 45 left in my week [15:46] Slacker :P [15:46] tonight shall mostly be comprised of sleeping [15:46] you really have no idea what goes on here at work [15:46] Slacking? ;) [15:47] mostly https://twitter.com/sprmtt/status/325266486224642049 [15:47] :O [15:47] admittedly that was last friday [15:47] we didn't have the live music this week [15:47] later popey et all who's going tonight [15:48] oh, and in 13 minutes the bar opens [15:48] Lass next to the pillar looks as though she is begrudgingly sitting through the performance [15:48] You have a bar at work? [15:48] she asleep lol [15:49] yes. yes we do [15:50] just bad timing on the photo probably [15:50] just found a good name for an app that exists on android, "pubdar". :) [15:54] can't decide if I wanna stay at work for a beer, or just head off home and sleep [15:55] Free beer? [15:55] not free, no [15:55] that was last night [15:55] Decent ales? [15:55] alas no [15:55] nothing on tap [15:56] Go home to sleep [15:56] hah [15:57] nothing on tap....pah rubbish [15:57] it's not a huge bar [15:57] it's just... a bar [15:57] ... in our office [15:57] what a metal bar [15:57] ? [16:00] http://www.ahhhhh.com/ [16:00] MooDoo: it's a bar, as in alvohol [16:01] *alcohol [16:04] SuperMatt: I thought that was going to be a link to your place of work and its bar [16:07] http://www.dezeen.com/2008/09/01/engine-offices-by-jump-studios/ this is it [16:07] or least some of the pictures are === alan_g is now known as alan_g|bbs [16:09] * TheOpenSourcerer tidies up desk and heads to the train to meet popey (or just go straight to the pub). === pdunkley is now known as Guest56595 [16:39] * AlanBell heads to the pub [16:42] :D [16:44] right can you guys help [16:45] im trying to connect spring lobby using a LAN Network [16:46] * brobostigon googles spring lobby, as he has no clue what it is. [16:47] spring is a game [16:47] spring lobby is where you make game match ups [16:47] ah, [16:48] yea [16:48] i know [16:48] i wanna know how to connect to localhost [16:49] so i can host a LAN Network game [16:50] without the internet [16:51] right so you dont know then [16:52] ......... great [16:53] ideas-hub: have you tried there irc channel, here on freenode? [16:53] their* [16:53] i dont know what it is [16:54] it says on their site #springlobby [16:54] springlobby.info then to contact at the bottom of the page. [16:57] Why does the update-manager icon look like an "A" now? [16:57] The icon (with its green background) looks like some web site opened up something evil [16:57] very mac-like isn't it [16:57] directhex: "A" for Ubuntu Apdates? [16:58] Aptsnacks [16:58] Awesome software in here [16:59] the green background is suspicious as well [16:59] it looks like a poker chip [16:59] MartijnVdS: somewhat ironically, your nick is green in my IRC client. [17:00] dwatkins: hmm :) [17:00] dwatkins: do I look suspicious too? [17:00] unless you mention me by name, then it's yellow. [17:00] MartijnVdS: no, you look Dutch. [17:00] I imagine you're busy riding 14-fot tall bicycles in your offline time [17:00] *foot [17:01] ಠ_ಠ [17:01] ttha to you too ;) [17:01] ah, you disapprove [17:02] We're getting a king in a few days... [17:02] William IV [17:02] congratulations [17:02] or whatever he'll call himself :) [17:03] We've had a queen for so long, she's practically immortal. [17:03] William IV would be confusing if "your" William became king ;) [17:03] dwatkins: We've had 3 queens in a row, since 1890 [17:03] 3 queens and one "queen-regent" [17:04] What's the difference between a queen and a queen-regent, aside from 7 characters? [17:04] dwatkins: the king died while his daughter was 10 [17:05] oh dear :( [17:05] dwatkins: so his wife (the queen, but not "by family" but "by marriage") took over for 8 years [17:05] 1890-1898 [17:06] * dwatkins sighs [17:06] I wish I didn't have to deal with random people sometimes [17:06] Freecycle tends to bring out the people who don't use e-mail much [17:07] heh, I know the type [17:07] I got three consecutive replies asking the same thing but with a longer sentence each time === adam____ is now known as kabads [17:31] OT | oooh ..

[19:12] he might be deluding me [19:12] wouldn't be the first time ;-) [19:12] Did you see Jono asking for weed on his weekly QnA on youtube ? [19:12] lol, no?

[20:44] mungbean: nah, I like it better like this [20:44] mungbean: I use(d) FB too much anyway [20:44] my close family of first cousins, uncles, nephews etc number around 100 [20:45] mungbean: the website works fine :) [20:45] fb is excellent place to put baby pics etc [20:46] getting asked for help on setting up website, should i direct them to a person, or a website that helps this stuff? [20:46] don'twanna get saddled with it [20:46] probably, yes [20:46] mungbean: do they want a blog? blogger or tumblr [20:46] i don't even wanna ask [20:47] mungbean: Tell them your consulting rate ;) [20:47] see, the problem is the critical mass phenomena - I stay on facebook because all my friends and family are on facebook. they stay on facebook because they're nieve and won't change now they're established; and besides all _their_ friends are on facebook.. ad infinitum [20:47] mungbean: £100/hr, £75 because you know them so wel [20:47] l [20:48] diddledan: the only reason I haven't closed my account is that there are some people I only talk to using FB [20:49] diddledan: and I don't want to NOT talk to them :) [20:49] I don't actually have any idea as to the going rate for things like web consultancy. despite working along exactly those lines. the costing is up to my bosses, I just take my paycheque [20:49] MartijnVdS, I know what you mean [20:50] (take my cheque and do all the meaningful work :-p) [20:50] diddledan: £75-100/hr sounds nice though, right? [20:50]
