hd5770hey man how do i install ksensors ? i get this from apt-get07:00
hd5770Package ksensors is not available, but is referred to by another package.07:00
hd5770This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or07:00
hd5770is only available from another source07:00
diploMeans it's part of another package, not grabbed it myself. Will have a look a mo07:01
diplo!info ksensors07:01
lubotu3Package ksensors does not exist in quantal07:01
hd5770not used no more ?07:01
hd5770i was following this website07:01
hd5770https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto07:01
diploNot packaged for new releases I'm guessing07:02
diploSeems similar to lmsensors07:02
hd5770yeah it is07:02
diploah i see, it's a gui front end ?07:02
hd5770yes yes .07:03
hd5770hmmm strange07:03

hd5770yeah07:04
hd5770im new to it tho only install last night :P07:04
hd5770but i have used it in the past meny years ago seems a lot more stable now :)07:04
hd5770i most go back laters thanks for the help diplo07:06
diploDoesn't seem to have been packaged since lucid07:06
MartijnVdSisn't lmsensors a bit old and being replaced by other kernel subsystems?07:13
MartijnVdSand files in /sys?07:13
diploProbably, had a quick read a few mins ago07:17
popeyi use xsensors to see what temp my laptop is07:17
diploAh that's it, couldn't remember it's name07:17
MartijnVdSI use turbostat07:18
diploI rarely ever used those things07:18
diplo:)07:18
MartijnVdSbut only incidentally07:18
popeyyeah, i only use it when google hangouts is running, to point out how much cpu it eats07:18
popeyand how crap my laptop is at dumping heat07:18
MartijnVdSturbostat also shows how often the CPU is in which idle states07:20
* diplo installs07:42
MooDoomorning07:52
* hd5770 installs both :)07:59
popeyMartijnVdS: turbostat seems odd to install,08:00
diployeah I agree, not worked for me yet either. need to look into it later08:01

bigcalmGood morning peeps :)08:16
diplo 08:24
MartijnVdSpopey: you need to install linux-tools-common08:25
MartijnVdSpopey: it's kernel-version dependent08:25
hd5770its agy08:25
MartijnVdSlike linux-headers etc. (it auto-upgrades along with new kernel versions if you ahve the meta package)08:25
hd5770just keeps listing cpues in termal08:26
MartijnVdSpopey: acpidump shouldn't be necessary, the modprobe msr is annoying08:26
MartijnVdShd5770: yes, it lists all CPUs + their temperature + C-states used + speeds used08:26

bigcalmMorning davmor209:55
davmor2bigcalm: I loved you my coding companion, so it's your cat now right09:55
redtape|renegadeI don't understyand why people feel so atomised and 'biting their lips' to share stuff ? But I'll stop as popey has said.09:55
davmor2bigcalm: how long did it sleep there?09:56
popeyi would respond, but i suspect you'll /part before the conversation is finished09:56
popeyand I'll just get more pissed off09:56
dwatkinsredtape|renegade: imagine if everyone just shared links on here09:56
dwatkinsalso, what does "feel atomised" mean?09:56
redtape|renegadepopey : I check the logs  most days .. yeah .. just imagine it would be like 'a community' or something ... but I'll walk away .. as this isn't diaspora.09:57
popeybut irc isn't twitter09:57
bigcalmdavmor2: I still think of her as the cat that lives with us. Never felt that I've owned a cat. She slept on my desk for about 2-3 hours I think09:58
popeybigcalm: my cats never sleep on my desk ☹09:58
redtape|renegadeI don't use twitter .. perhaps I should ?09:58
bigcalmpopey: it was a 1st for me. I had to pull my keyboard all the way to the edge of the desk so that she wouldn't swipe at my fingers as I typed09:59
bigcalmredtape|renegade: twitter is fun, you should try it :)09:59
dwatkinsI like Twitter, but I prefer Google+ as it has threaded discussions.10:01
davmor2redtape|renegade: think of irc as letters between friends you ask how people are, you ask for help from people you trust and mostly know, and you have a bit of a laugh, twitter as a link sharing facility, you'll love it and facebook as the holiday snapshot board where you show how drunk and stupid you can be :)10:01
LaneyPeople do share links on IRC too10:03
dwatkinsindeed, Laney10:04
Laneybut you should be discriminating otherwise people will be overwhelmed10:09
dwatkinsredtape|renegade: thanks for sending me the definition of 'atomised', although I'm still not sure how it applies here10:10
DJonesIn irssi, is there a way to have the bottom row of the keyboard as shortcuts to different windows so that they operate the same as the top two rows, Alt+z = window 20 etc10:13
dwatkinsDJones: you can probably re-bind them, although they may already be bound to other functions10:14
dwatkinsdo a /bind and have a look at what's already configured10:14
DJonesdwatkins: Thanks, looks like some of them are already bound to other functions, ah well, aliases will do the job10:16
redtape|renegadedwatkins: It is the opposite of sharing ∴ is defined as "redtape"  .. which I openly rebel against.10:17
dwatkinsredtape|renegade: sometimes one can overshare ;)10:19
redtape|renegadesometimes ..10:19
dwatkinsanyway, I tend to just do what everyone else does around these parts10:19
dwatkinson other channels, I often share links - they are mainly to images of kittens, though.10:20
redtape|renegadewell that's interesting .. the 1st reaction to any share for myself is "Well , how does that help me/others ?" .. but we are getting semantic ,..  & I'm not indicating any value for today's posts.10:22
dwatkinsI thought it was a link to a related board, or do you not mean today?10:26
redtape|renegade"it was a link to a related board"  .. by that you mean .. this is a portal to those in charge of the Ubuntu-UK loco team ? I'm not sure I understand ..10:28

redtape|renegade**Iwas having a look ...10:35
dwatkinsredtape|renegade: I think we're talking about different conversations :)10:36
redtape|renegadeThe only alternative that I've found is :: http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv6/raspberry-pi :: Archlinux|Arm seems to be ahead of a lot of others in this field .. but I don't know how close *linaro* is to Ubuntu .. I guess it come down  to the 'power ' of the CPU etc .. mostly underpowered for Ubuntu.10:38
redtape|renegade**comes down ..10:38

SuperMattthanks guys15:00
Darael...Why did I have to follow a link to fusionio?  Those cards are *shiny*.  Shame they're expensive enough that the prices aren't listed on the site (which as we know is hardly ever a good sign).15:00
DJoneshamitron: Too hot? Never, another 10C and it'll be just comfortable15:06
hamitronno way! :(15:06
hamitron22C is my max working temp15:07

DaraelWhat?  Heresy!  22C is the low end of optimal working range.15:08
DJonesmungbean: I love the snowboarding games on the wii, only problem is that they leave me crippled (two dodgy knee's so end up unable to walk)15:08

diddledanbeer on a thurdsday?!17:17
popeyoutrage17:20
MartijnVdSbut.. Thursday = beer & pizza night17:21
MartijnVdSalso, tomorrow is Comic Sans day17:21
diddledancomic sans must die17:21
MartijnVdSdiddledan: hence the drinking17:21
MartijnVdShttp://comicsansdag.nl/17:22
diddledankill it with fire!17:30
MartijnVdSdiddledan: just enjoy it for the day17:31
diddledannevar17:31
diddledancomic sans is an abomination :-p17:31
MartijnVdSdiddledan: but it's going to be comic sans day!17:32
diddledanI shall be the one not participating in festivities :-D17:32
jacobwComic Sans is more culpable for the finanical crisis than anything else17:33
MartijnVdSjacobw: how so?17:33
=== schwuk is now known as schwuk_away
MartijnVdSjacobw: did it put "proper" foundries out of business?17:34
diddledanwhen Douglas Adams wrote about "big friendly letters" he did not in any way envisage the evilness of comic sans17:34
jacobwMartijnVdS: It's just the worst thing I can think to say about Comic Sans17:35
diddledanjacobw: you'd be right then :-p17:35
MartijnVdSjacobw: "comic sans touches children" ?17:36
MartijnVdS(it's funny because it's true.. in a sense)17:36
diddledanand the silence outside my window is suddenly shattered with a youf yelling as if to nobody as there were no other noises until he uttered "f*cking knob!"17:36
jacobwIn an odd sense17:36
diddledanand yes, "f*ck" does spell "fasterisck" :-p17:37
MartijnVdSoh, I figured you meant "frock"17:38
diddledanfrollock?17:38
diddledanhow many others are there?17:38
MartijnVdS"frolicking knob" ?17:39
diddledannow the usual noises of urban life have returned17:39
diddledanincluding the obligatory car alarm17:39
MartijnVdSdiddledan: sirens in the distance?17:40

MartijnVdSso I'm guessing.. north-west England? :)17:40
diddledanlol17:40
diddledannah, basingstoke :-p17:40
diddledanfind the thames, and the severn estuaries, draw a line between them, then find the estuary above the little island down the middle bottom and draw a vertical line from there, and where the two lines meet is basingstoke17:41
MartijnVdSdiddledan: I drove past it :)17:42
MartijnVdSonce17:42
diddledanbest thing you could have done - woe betide you if you actually stopped here17:43
MartijnVdSalso:17:43
MartijnVdS"Are you trying to tell me that we just stuck out our thumbs and some green bug-eyed monster stuck his head out and said, Hi fellas, hop right in. I can take you as far as the Basingstoke roundabout?" - Arthur Dent, Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy.17:43
diddledanyeah, basingstoke is renowned for roundabouts17:44
MartijnVdSI thought that was Swindon?17:44
diddledanswindon has the "magic" roundabout, but basingstoke has more ordinary ones17:44
MartijnVdSdiddledan: the entire country seems to be littered with "normal" ones17:44
MartijnVdSdiddledan: (I drove from Harwich to Land's End and back)17:45
diddledanyeah, we decided we liked circles and so plonked them down everywhere there was enough space for them17:45

popeyinstalling the one without the brackets though18:06
popey(bought it) :D18:06
MartijnVdSpopey: only the one with brackets has an icon18:06
mgdmczajkowski: 'lo, yu at EuroPython?18:06
MartijnVdSwhich means it's the "official" release version I guess?18:06
popeystrange, this one is downloading18:06
popey11.5GB18:06
* MartijnVdS starts Little Inferno18:07
popeythe () one is 7.6GB18:09
* popey downloads both for the hell of it18:09

DaraelMartijnVdS: Hast completed Little Inferno before?18:19
DaraelThere's a few surprising turns in that game, let me tell you.18:20
DaraelDo wish I'd kept that coupon, though.  Yes, indeed.18:21
directhexpopey, MartijnVdS, you want the one WITH brackets18:27
directhexthe one without brackets is the beta version of the game on all platforms, and only supports beta servers. the one with brackets is the beta version of the linux port of the non-beta version, i.e. it can play on any global servers18:27
directhexon windows, there's left 4 dead 2, and left 4 dead 2 beta (no brackets)18:28

ZenoArrowHi. I've tried to uninstall a package using sudo apt-get remove --purge (following up with sudo apt-get autoremove), but I'm certain that it didn't clear everything. Is there any way to locate the files that the install changed?19:30
popeythat should have removed it19:31
popeythere may be generated files it wont remove19:31
popeyand it wont touch things in your home directory19:31
MartijnVdSand things like log files probably19:31
popeyyeah19:31
* popey has a quick blast at l4d219:31
ZenoArrowpopey: It should've removed everything. To be clearer about the issue, after the first install, a script ran that attempted to setup some databases (but failed).19:32
ZenoArrowSo that the script had a chance of running successfully, I followed the steps I mentioned earlier to remove the program, and attempted the install again.19:33
ZenoArrowThis time, the database setup script did not run.19:33
ZenoArrowAs I saw that the script failed the first time, I know the failure to run the script isn't down to the data already existing, so it must be setup related.19:34
ZenoArrowI'll have a look in my home directory and see what I can find.19:34
